We could call this A Tale of Two Facilities. Iran launched an unprecedented direct attack on Israel in retaliation for the targeted strike on IRGC and Hamas commanders. That attack did little damage despite a volley of well over 300 missiles and drones, thanks to the regional defenses and the several hours of lead time […]
OPINION: The nights of Passover are different from all other nights, and this year even more so. Your Jewish neighbors will soon gather to recall their ancestors’ liberation from ancient Egypt and the start of their long journey to Israel, but as your neighbors celebrate this year, they will also grieve. Lately, I’ve been thinking […]
WASHINGTON — A Bangkok -based plastics firm has agreed to pay $20 million to settle with the U.S. over 467 “egregious” violations of Iran sanctions, the U.S. Treasury announced on Friday.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Friday said the U.S. had no involvement in the apparent attack on Iran. The strikes hours earlier appeared to be retaliation by Israel, but the Jewish State did not formally take responsibility for the apparent attack. Mr. Blinken did not get into specifics about who was responsible. “I’m not […]
Before Iran’s attack on Israel last week, President Joe Biden had a one-word message for Tehran: “Don’t.” It didn’t listen. In the aftermath of the attack, Biden didn’t utter that one-word advice publicly, but it was fairly obvious what his administration wanted the Israelis to do: Axios reported that Biden had told Israeli Prime Minister […]

For all the beads of sweat appearing on various squeamish brows warning against escalation… President Joe Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the United States will not join an offensive counter-strike on Iran should Israel choose that road after Tehran attacked it this weekend, according to two people familiar with the conversation. U.S. […]
The war of words between Israel and Iran is heating up as Israel’s response to Iran’s missile and drone attack last week draws near. The tit-for-tat attacks and retaliation cycle are escalating as a war neither side wants becomes more likely with each statement emanating from the two nation’s capitals. “The nuclear facilities of […]
Ever since Iran’s largely failed missile and drone attack on Israel last Saturday, the world has been holding its breath waiting to see what Bibi Netanyahu would do in response. Despite the White House urging “caution” and “restraint,” Israel clearly seems to realize that a failure to respond would only serve as a sign of […]
Let’s face it — we can also skip the qualifier “on Iran,” too. However, let’s not quibble when a mainstream media outlet manages to squint long enough to see that Joe Biden’s strategic new clothes are entirely non-existent. Politico’s Nahal Toosi puts it bluntly: “There is no Biden strategy for Iran.” And even worse, sources […]
