What Should They Have Done? Power Versus Principle in Wartime Dilemmas
The history of the State of Israel is frequently presented as an endless series of "impossible choices." From the early days of the Yishuv to the current security crisis, the prevailing narrative suggests that a "nature of reality" dictated a selection between the fit and the unfit, the prominent and…
The Designated Actor: How the ‘Leave it to Bibi’ Script Became Reality
If one accepts the standard narrative, October 7th was a tragedy of incompetence—a colossal, simultaneous failure of intelligence, technology, and political oversight that caught the "Mr. Security" of Israeli politics napping.

In the theater of Israeli politics, the script is agonizingly familiar. While Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu offers tedious declarations of "total victory," American officials, speaking to Ynet, detail a completely different plan. The U.S. is actively "pressing" Netanyahu on his "day after" plan, a plan Washington has already drafted: a…
