and why Torah memory is the only antidote
'Saddened and shocked': Israel’s groveling apology to Christian idolatry betrayed Noachides, Torah values — and…
The curious case of the 10% 'misses' that became multi-million dollar hits
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. But in the world of forensic intelligence analysis, there is no such thing as a coincidence that advances a…
In the sterile, well-lit conference rooms where the Jewish Agency for Israel creates its strategic forecasts, the numbers on the screen are staggering. The organization, tasked with facilitating Aliyah—Jewish immigration to Israel—has publicly braced itself for the imminent arrival of one million new immigrants from the Diaspora. It is a…
The geopolitical architecture binding the United States and the State of Israel is frequently described through the metaphor of a "special relationship." A central pillar of this architecture is the "Blue Wall"—the assumption that American Jewry acts as an impermeable shield for the Jewish state. For decades, we have told…
Why It Matters: This is a radical “what if” plan that outlines a “shock therapy” for Israel to end its 40-year strategic dependency on the United States—a relationship that began in the 1980s—and, just as importantly, to cure its internal socialist addiction by abolishing the Israel Land Authority and turning…
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…
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…

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…
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…
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…
