Jewish Democrats slam Omar for remarks equating Israel and US to Hamas and Taliban

A dozen stated that “ignoring the differences between democracies governed by the rule of law and contemptible organizations that engage in terrorism at best discredits one’s intended argument and at worst reflects deep-seated prejudice.”

(June 10, 2021 / JNS) A dozen Jewish Democratic lawmakers have issued a statement strongly condemning recent remarks made by Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), who equated Israeli and U.S. actions to terrorist groups like Hamas and the Taliban.

In a tweet on Monday, she wrote: “We must have the same level of accountability and justice for all victims of crimes against humanity. We have seen unthinkable

The Last Stand of the Philistines: Archaeologists Find Clue to the Fall of Gath

When the Aramean king laid siege to biblical Gath 2,800 years ago, the defenders resorted to desperate measures, including, it seems, making flimsy arrowheads out of bone.

An unusual discovery made in the rubble of a house in Gath paints a dramatic picture of the last days in this infamous Philistine city, famed as the hometown of the giant Goliath, Israeli archaeologists say.

Inside the home in the lower city, the researchers discovered an arrowpoint made of animal bone, which they believe may have been used as part of Gath’s futile last

The Systemic Failure of Israeli Public Diplomacy

BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 2,045, May 24, 2021

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Israel has not yet internalized the full value of either dynamic public diplomacy or sophisticated psychological warfare. Because revitalization of the country’s public diplomacy bodies is highly unlikely in a system in which those bodies are dispersed among multiple ministerial and security frameworks, the public diplomacy system should be privatized.

The recent military campaign in the Gaza Strip was the primary action taken by the State of Israel in the face of rocket terrorism by Hamas and Islamic Jihad. The

Hitler soñó con exterminar a la población de la URSS y esta le 'saltó a la yugular'

El 22 de junio de 1941 es el día que marcó el inicio de la invasión nazi de la Unión Soviética. Es bien sabido que Hitler y sus cómplices buscaban conquistar al país comunista, pero no todos están al tanto de los pormenores del plan que los nazis prepararon para los pueblos de la URSS y cómo se vería el país tras dicha conquista.

Para entender mejor las ansias de los nazis de expandir su dominio hacia el este hay que sumergirse en las razones del odio de los nazis hacia ciertos pueblos de Europa. Según la ideología hitleriana, los judíos y los eslavos eran los llamados untermensch, lo que se traduce al español como 'subhombre' o 'persona inferior'.

Iran, Russia, and Turkey: A Eurasionist Model of Foreign Relations

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Iran, Turkey, and Russia are building a new model of bilateral ties. Unshackled by formal alliances, the trio is showing it can work together to limit Western influence while avoiding an overreliance on one another. This mixture of correlating and contradictory interests, which characterizes the new Eurasianist model of bilateral relations, is a product of the changing global order.

Because Westerners tend to place the idea of cooperation among nations under a

Researchers believe the new “Homo” species intermarried with Homo sapiens and was an ancestor of the Neanderthals.

Pressure builds on Biden administration over lack of key Jewish appointments

Amid a spike in anti-Semitism across the country, the president has yet to fill the positions of special envoy on anti-Semitism and the White House Jewish liaison.

(June 22, 2021 / JNS) For months, Jewish organizations in the United States have been lobbying to appoint a White House Jewish liaison. And after numerous meetings between Jewish organizational leaders and administration officials when violence erupted last month between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip—followed by a wave of anti-Semitic attacks—that role and that of the State Department Special Envoy for Monitoring and Combating anti-Semitism have yet to be filled.

Most who spoke to JNS said that it was a matter of days or weeks before appointments are made, although they declined to speculate on particular

La reunión sigue a 2 llamadas telefónicas que los diplomáticos realizaron la semana pasada cuando Washington intensificó sus contactos con el nuevo gobierno de Israel, que tomó posesión el 13 de junio. En la primera llamada, Blinken felicitó a Lapid por formar una coalición encabezada por el primer ministro Naftali Bennett.

Experto israelí advierte seriamente sobre la situación del esfuerzo nuclear de Irán

Su recomendación: Volver de inmediato al acuerdo nuclear, y recién después tratar de mejorarlo.

Desde hace años es consenso entre los expertos israelíes en el tema de Irán, que el acuerdo nuclear del 2015 no era bueno. Si bien impuso un marco que limitaba el uranio enriquecido que podía tener Irán en su poder, lo cual era importante, por otro lado –y esta era su gran falla-estaba programado de modo que al expirar , 15 años después (de los cuales ya pasaron 6), quedaba en poder de Irán una infraestructura nuclear aprobada internacionalmente. Esa fue una de las razones centrales del duro criticismo de Israel al respecto.

Pero a partir de ese punto, ha habido siempre distintos encares respecto a cómo mejor actuar en ese marco. Y muy especialmente, respecto a la presión que el

The Great Unravelling

Over the past decade, for the first time in its history, Israel developed a strong diplomatic posture in the region and worldwide. Israel developed strategic ties with Arab states, and the states of the eastern Mediterranean. It has built close ties with the EU’s Visegrád Group of central European states Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic as well as Austria and Italy. Israel upgraded its diplomatic and trade relations with the states of Africa and Central and South America, as well as with India, Japan and South Korea.

Unfortunately, it is likely that all Israel achieved through painstaking effort may be lost after the new governing coalition led by Yair Lapid takes power next week. This is the case for three reasons.

First, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is the author of Israel’s diplomatic

Estonia, el Holocausto casi desconocido

Debido a que era una de las comunidades judías más pequeñas de Europa del Este, el Holocausto estonio es quizá uno de los capítulos más desconocidos de la historia de este periodo trágico y terrible.

Pese a contar con una de las comunidades judías más pequeñas de toda Europa del Este, la vida hebrea de Estonia desapareció para siempre tras la ocupación del país por los nazis en el verano de 1941, aunque algunos centenares de judíos pudieron escapar con los soviéticos antes de la llegada de los nuevos ocupantes. La Unión Soviética se había anexionado Estonia tras su ocupación en el verano de 1940 y había disuelto todas las instituciones judías; aproximadamente la mitad de la población judía huyó tras la ocupación soviética. Otros centenares de judíos más habían sido deportados por los soviéticos a recónditos lugares del país, tales como

Changing the Focus of Israel Advocacy

BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 2,072, June 14, 2021

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Those who advocate for Israel often take a defensive posture in response to endless attacks from advocates for the Palestinians. The debate focuses entirely on Israel’s perceived imperfections. Instead, pro-Israel advocates should take an offensive posture, shifting the focus of debate onto Palestinian behavior and holding Palestinian leaders accountable for their malfeasance.

In recent years, Israel has fared poorly in the court of public opinion. Palestinian advocates have engaged in a well-organized offensive campaign of disinformation, while Israel and its advocates around the world have remained largely on the

Hamas’s goals, strategy and miscalculations

The terror group achieved its strategic and political goals in the last conflict, but paid a heavy price—far heavier than it expected.

(June 15, 2021 / JNS) The conflict between Hamas and Israel last month was provoked by the terror group to achieve a series of political goals, on the domestic front, in the regional theater, in the international domain and vis-à-vis Israel. Hamas was not attempting to achieve tactical military goals. It was a classic case of war as a continuation of politics by other means.

But what were these political objectives? Why did Hamas choose to use force? And to what extent was the terror organization successful in securing its goals?

Iran’s Threat to Iraq Is a Threat to the US

Map of Iran and Iraq, image via Wilson Center

BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 2,061, June 2, 2021

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The US Office of the Director of National Intelligence recently released its annual threat assessment, in which Iran is mentioned no fewer than 60 times as part of a “diverse array of threats” facing the US. Iran is moving toward its goal of full domination of Iraq and the expulsion of the last remaining US forces from that country, a result that would represent a great success for the Islamic Republic.

The annual threat assessment released in April by the US Office of the Director of National Intelligence states that “Iran will remain a regional menace with broader malign influence activities.” The Islamic Republic is expected to continue those malign activities all over the globe, but its focus will likely remain its immediate regional surroundings—particularly Iraq. Tehran views Iraq as a key country over
