ANALYSIS:

Why Haredim must serve in the IDF

Let me say it clearly: The halakhic imperative for haredi military service is clear and unambiguous.

One-way safe passage?

Arafat without Oslo

Rather than facing total obliteration, Hamas, if they have any rationality, should understand, as did Arafat 43 years ago, that accepting safe passage in return for total surrender of the hostages and arms is their only escape option. But Israel must refrain from another Oslo that brings them back. Opinion.

Where is the Red Cross now?

The Red Cross makes no mention of the hostages and appears not to care. Opinion.

Gazans wish to escape from Hamas cruelty,let a million Gazans go!

If the Gazans leave, the dreams of Israel’s enemies will end. No more Gaza wars. No more Hamas rockets aimed at Israel civilians. No more surprise massacres. How disappointing. Opinion.

Why does the world want Israel to lose?

The people of Israel have emerged as successful leaders in every arena of human endeavor. From technology to medicine to agriculture, Israel is a world leader. The world cannot accept that and has gone mad. Opinion.

Turning the "Day After" into lasting peace

Israel must declare sovereignty and preserve the rights of Palestinian Arabs: A Position Paper.

Ending terror against Israelis now

The 'occupation' is a bad thing, all agree. Since it is suicide to allow a PA state, the only option is sovereignty and annexation. Op-ed.
