A Holding Facility in Plain Sight? Why Did the U.S. Fund a Massive Base on Judea and Samaria’s Edge?

Just east of the sprawling haredi city of Elad, hugging the faint trace of the 1949 Armistice Line – the so-called Green Line delineating Israel from Judea and Samaria – lies a vast military installation. With its distinctive, almost futuristic circular layout stark against the arid hills, Nachshonim Base stands

‘Leave it to Bibi’: A Special Investigation into the Brookings War Plan and the ‘Managed’ Destinies of Israel and Iran

The Script We Were Never Meant to Read In the cynical world of Washington policy, documents are weapons and influence is the currency. Reports from elite think tanks are not academic exercises; they are blueprints, "menus" of options presented to policymakers who will, in turn, shape global events. It is

State Secret: How My 1987 Memo to Rabbi Kahane Exposed the Playbook of COVID-19 and October 7th

On the evening of March 31, 1987, I was a 17-year-old in a suit and tie, sitting in a living room in Aspen Hill, Maryland. Across from me was Knesset Member Rabbi Meir Kahane. I handed him a confidential memorandum. It was not a theory. It was evidence, gathered during

Twenty Minutes to Midnight in Judea and Samaria

When I wrote the "Yesha Defense Initiative" (עברית כאן) over two decades ago, I began not with a statistic, but with a scenario. It is 2:45 a.m. on a Tuesday in Israel. The streets of Judea and Samaria—our biblical heartland, Yesha—are quiet. But in the IDF war rooms, there is

None Dare Call It Deliberate

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s career is defined by a central paradox. He is the ultimate "Mr. Security," a leader of hardline rhetoric and vows of "total victory." Yet, his political history is a trail of stunning concessions, from the Hebron Accords to the current, grinding war in Gaza. This contradiction

Was Binyamin Netanyahu Born ‘Pregnant’?

In his 1978 memoir, In Search of Enemies, former CIA station chief John Stockwell offered a sickening insight into the agency's operational doctrine. He described a plan to compromise Zambian President Kenneth Kaunda, who had publicly supported an embargo against shipping arms to Angola. The CIA's plan, Stockwell wrote, was

Acquiescence Again: Netanyahu, the ‘Revitalized’ PA, and the Betrayal of Judea and Samaria

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

Gandhi’s Vision: The Unwritten Chapter of an Assassinated Leader

Today, the 30th of Tishrei, marks the somber anniversary of the assassination of Minister Rechavam Ze’evi. Murdered in a Jerusalem hotel by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, his death was a brutal punctuation mark on a life dedicated to the security of Israel. In the years since,

When Victory is Defeat: Hysterical Optimism and the Squandering of a Nation

In the landscape of a nation perpetually at war, a peculiar and dangerous psychological phenomenon has taken root. It is a sentiment that masquerades as faith, as resilience, as pragmatic hope. But in truth, it is a kind of fever, a desperate and energetic denial of a grim reality. The

When the Jewish State Turns on the Jew

That the security apparatus of the modern Israeli state has allegedly targeted the legal aid organization Honenu should surprise no one who has observed the state’s philosophical trajectory. This incident is not an aberration or a flaw in the system. It is the system functioning as designed—the inevitable outcome of
