The Students for Justice in Palestine did not proceed with a rally they planned Thursday in Tucson, Arizona, after University of Arizona President Robert Robbins condemned the group. Robbins said that the national organization of the group is why he disagrees with the rally, but said that they still were allowed to hold the demonstration. […]

More than 60 conservative leaders on Friday urged the complete defunding of U.S. foreign aid to Palestinians through Congress’ appropriations process. In a joint letter to Congress, the leaders stated, “In light of the heinous war against Israel started by Hamas and supported by other Palestinian elements in the region, not one American taxpayer dollar should flow to or underwrite […]

In 1863, Jules Verne wrote a science fiction novel set almost a hundred years later. It described a future in which people traveled on roads paved with asphalt in carriages powered by gas-fired engines. A war between the great powers would be universally feared as it might involve the detonation of super-bombs that could flatten […]

Writer-director Christopher Nolan’s summer blockbuster, the biopic “Oppenheimer,” has grossed nearly $1 billion in global ticket sales, a staggering number including over $320 million from North American theaters and over $600 million internationally. That’s far better box office than other films Hollywood had counted on to offset the devastating five-month strike by the Writers Guild of America and the […]
Hamas targets the Jews because of what Judaism represents: the moral system underpinning Western culture When Israel is attacked, you often hear people say of “the crisis in the Middle East” that it has been going on for decades. But Jews know better than that. It’s been going on for thousands of years. What is […]

Hassan Nasrallah, Secretary-General of the Hezbollah terror group, recently threatened to send Israel back “to the Stone Age” if it goes to war with Lebanon — meaning defend itself against an Iranian-Lebanese attack. While Nasrallah’s threat to destroy Israel is not new, he surely knows a thing or two about sending countries back to the […]

More than 1,000 Israelis died at the hands of Hamas terrorists on October 7, by far the worst day in Israeli history, roughly triple the death count on the bloodiest day of the 1973 Yom Kippur War. The Israeli military and civil society were taken unawares and responded slowly and ineffectively. The Hamas attack uncovered […]
