Insight and Analysis of the Trump-Netanyahu Meetings and Gaza Statements

As jaws are still being picked up from the floor, pundits are commenting, and world leaders are chastising the nature and comments that came out of this week’s Trump-Netanyahu meeting and public comments. Under the microscope are questions of the substance, the practicality, the nuance, and proposing things never been proposed before. President Trump declared that Gaza should not go through a process of rebuilding and occupation by the same people who have created such disaster and bad luck ther...

Syria: The Bad, the Bad and the Ugly

This past week we woke up one day and found that the Assad dictatorship that controlled Syria for nearly six decades was gone. Islamist rebels had overrun Damascus and Aleppo and President Assad fled to Russia. It’s widely unclear what will be the future of Syria and its citizens, particularly the minorities. And while Turkey currently has an upper hand and Iranian and Russian presence has been weakened, it’s unclear what will be. It’s also unclear how this will impact Israel which has acted bol...

From the Pillbox to the Dugout

In the midst of the war, there is trauma indeed, but there’s also the mundane as life attempts to be as normal as possible even though it’s changed forever. David Weiss experienced both sides of the spectrum from being called into reserves on October 7, and then coaching his kids’ little league baseball team, and even bringing the Israeli team to international competition. How does one cope with the balance of these and why is it important? What are Israel’s aspirations for a little league team ...

Protecting American Jews on US Campuses and Beyond

Shabbos Kestenbaum @ShabbosK found himself facing rabid antisemitism as a graduate student at Harvard, noting that Jews' rights were being violated and the university was doing little to nothing to protect Jewish students while emboldening those who were threatening the Jewish students. He has spoken out, taken action, and even initiated a lawsuit against Harvard. He's become a strong voice among American Jews, widely published, followed and referenced on social media, and a respected speaker su...
