The AI Race Is Also a Race for Survivability

Please read my new article in The Times of Israel called "The AI Race Is Also a Race for Survivability."

The AI race is not only a race to build more powerful machines—it is a race to keep essential capabilities working when infrastructure fails, providers withdraw, or outputs can no longer be trusted. Israel must build defense, survivability, and recovery into critical AI systems from the start, with genuinely independent alternatives and tested fallbacks. Every essential deployment should establish what must continue, demonstrate how it survives disruption, and name who has the authority and resources to restore it. Strategic strength is not simply what AI can do when everything works; it is what the nation can still do when someone tries to break it.

Don’t Fall for the DSA Branding Machine

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Don't Fall for the DSA Branding Machine."

Something significant just happened in New York — and most people missed what it really means. A political movement is selling affordability and social justice on the surface while systematically inverting moral reality underneath, recasting terrorists as victims, democracies as villains, and Jews as obstacles to progress. This isn't a policy disagreement or a generational shift in the Democratic Party — it's a branding operation designed to make radical ideas sound compassionate, and it's working. The question is whether enough Americans will see through the packaging before the moral rot becomes permanent.

Politics Must Never Trump Morality

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Politics Must Never Trump Morality."

The United States is currently experiencing a dangerous lapse in strategic judgment by allowing partisan politics to undermine its essential alliance with Israel against the Iranian regime. While Iran continues to fuel global instability through terrorist proxies and nuclear ambitions, American leaders must reject baseless conspiracy theories and the rising tide of antisemitism that seeks to recast democratic defense as aggression. True national security requires the maturity to prioritize the victory of our warfighters and the integrity of our borders over domestic grievances or ideological activism. Ultimately, America must reclaim its moral clarity by standing unapologetically with its allies and maintaining a firm distinction between democratic partners and terrorist adversaries.

Trump’s Fury: Power That Actually Delivers

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Trump's Fury: Power That Actually Delivers."

President Donald Trump shatters bureaucratic gridlock through bold actions—from recognizing Jerusalem and forging Abraham Accords, to freeing Gaza hostages via ultimatums and crippling Iran's nuclear program with maximum pressure. He secured future battlefields by creating Space Force, extracting the Greenland Framework for Arctic dominance, and accelerating the Golden Dome missile shield against hypersonic threats. Economically, Trump revived America via USMCA trade wins, massive deregulation, $500 billion Stargate AI infrastructure, energy independence, and border security triumphs over cartels. Like Cyrus the Great—who built empires while championing human rights—Trump's divinely-guided victories demand we reimagine Article II as a sword for victory, empowering decisive leadership against China, Russia, and global tyrants.

Hamas’s Deflection Playbook

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Hamas's Deflection Playbook."

Hamas has shifted its fight with Israel from the battlefield to a coordinated campaign of information and ideological warfare. Since the October 2023 attacks, they have used a strategy of deflection—accusing Israel of the very atrocities they commit—to sway global opinion. Their propaganda playbook includes fabricating an “occupation” narrative, falsely labeling Israel an apartheid and genocidal state, and accusing it of starving Gaza while concealing their own violence and exploitation of aid. The goal is to isolate Israel through international condemnation, economic boycotts, and legal attacks. Beyond the Middle East, Hamas and allied extremists work within Western democracies to erode support for Israel, promote radical agendas, and influence younger generations through education—turning the fight into both a military and a narrative battle for truth and democratic values.

Defeating “The Giants” of Iran With Tikkun

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Defeating 'The Giants' of Iran With Tikkun."

As we witness miracle after miracle in Israel’s current struggle against Iran, it is natural to praise the meticulous planning, skillful execution, and exceptional intelligence that have led to these achievements. We owe immense gratitude to the brave men and women of the IDF who put their lives on the line. However, let us never forget that, much like the giants the spies once feared, Iran presents a formidable challenge in the region. Only through faith in the Master of the Universe can we truly understand that our victories are part of a greater, divine plan—a merciful redemption promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Israel & Gaza: Separating Fact from Fiction

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Israel & Gaza: Separating Fact from Fiction."

Eighteen months into a conflict marked by unfathomable loss, one of the most disturbing things we see is the reinvention of what actually happened. The terrorists and their supporters spew an endless stream of hate and lies. It is crucial to continue to dispel their myths and hold on to the truth.

Hamas’s ideology of hate and annihilation meets Israel’s resolve to survive and achieve a lasting peace. Amid the ashes of Gaza, faith remains our compass and the Jewish state, our beacon.

Israel’s Urgent Need to Boost Defense Spending

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Israel's Urgent Need to Boost Defense Spending."

Israel’s survival hinges on its ability to confront existential threats with unrelenting resolve. Already allocating an extraordinary 8.8% of GDP—$46 billion annually—to defense, a 65% surge since the October 7 atrocities, Israel must further escalate investments in its military capabilities. This urgency persists despite ranking 15th globally in defense spending and receiving $3.8 billion in annual US military aid, supplemented by wartime emergency packages. The Jewish state faces an unparalleled convergence of adversaries: Iran’s regime—armed with nuclear ambitions, ICBMs, and drone swarms—orchestrates proxy wars through Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis, while the United Nations and global anti-Zionist movements wage diplomatic and ideological warfare.

Redemption: A Time of Peril and Opportunity

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Redemption: A Time of Peril and Opportunity."

The return of the hostages from their horrific ordeal in Gaza offers a moment for reflection on the tumultuous events of the past 15 months. The conflicts involving Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and other terrorist groups, along with the dark menacing shadow of Iran, have presented immense challenges. Yet, we have persevered, and for this, we offer our gratitude.

Many perceive these times as a prelude to a period of profound change, a transition towards the fulfillment of the messianic era. This perspective highlights the overt miracles we have witnessed and the persistent threats that remain to be overcome.

Even as the very existence of world Jewry is still being threatened, everyone can do something to help. This is not a time for complacency. Now is the time to prepare for the impending redemption.

Kahane Was Right About at Least One Thing

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Kahane Was Right About at Least One Thing."

Of course, given the political and humane realities, Israel has always sought coexistence and peace. Israel has repeatedly pursued a two-state solution, from the 1947 UN Partition Plan to the 1967 Green Line and the Oslo and Camp David Peace Accords. Each attempt at peaceful coexistence has ultimately collapsed into further violence. In short, then we must consider that:

If Arabs can live peacefully within Israel, that is to be welcomed. But if they remain committed to Israel’s destruction, then those who refuse compromise must seek another home.

While the pursuit of peace must never cease, a pragmatic mindset considers all logical approaches. This should include the concept of a distinctly Jewish state, which cannot be democratically ruled out of existence.

The Medusa Strategy to Defeat Iran and the Houthis

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "The Medusa Strategy to Defeat Iran and the Houthis."

Israel should consider employing a strategy mirroring Iran's use of proxy forces, extending beyond conventional military support to include infiltration and subversion within enemy territories. Iran has effectively leveraged groups like Hamas, Hezbollah, and various Iraqi and Syrian militias to exert influence and conduct operations near Israel's borders. Israel could adopt a similar approach, utilizing regional actors who share common adversaries, while also actively working to destabilize these threats from within.

With radical Islamists and their brainwashed supporters, the spreading of fake news and propaganda (like with the Nazis) is part and parcel of their terrorist strategy to brutally and violently take what they want, when they want, including a global Caliphate governed by Sharia law, and to cover it up with an endless series of lies they tell themselves and the world.

Can Sanity Prevail Before a Doomsday Scenario?

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Can Sanity Prevail Before a Doomsday Scenario?"

As Israel continues to face existential threats from multiple fronts, and unless the threats are pulled back, Israel will have no choice but to act increasingly and decisively to defend itself. With its back against the wall, Israel will have no choice but to further respond with a strategy of "escalate to deescalate," so that the enemy is forced to rethink the risk and reward equation of the dangerous game of chicken they are "playing" with the powerful Jewish state. Thus, the specter of a wider conflict looms large as Iran and its terrorist proxies continue to destabilize the region and plot Israel's destruction.

Trump's Three Steps to Middle East Peace

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Trump's Three Steps to Middle East Peace."

In his second term, Trump can achieve what has eluded his predecessors: enduring and comprehensive peace in the Middle East. This aspiration can be realized through three historic and positively impactful initiatives:

1. Neutralizing the Iranian Nuclear Threat: A decisive elimination of Iran’s threatening nuclear facilities is essential to prevent the radical and irrational leadership of the mullahs and Ayatollahs from jeopardizing global security with weapons of mass destruction.
2. Expanding the Abraham Accords: The finalization of a peace agreement between Israel and Saudi Arabia, along with other progressive Muslim nations yearning for peace and prosperity for their populations and a brighter future for all.
3. Achieving the Israeli-Palestinian Peace Plan: The conclusion of the Israeli-Palestinian 2020 Trump Peace Plan that addresses the longstanding conflict, permits Israel to annex the strategic Area C of the West Bank, including the Jordan Valley and establishes a limited two-state solution allowing Palestinians to live freely and with dignity while ensuring peace and security for Israel.

Israel: Time to Go All In

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Israel: Time to Go All In."

Israel is currently under attack from multiple terrorist groups including Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and radical Islamic jihadists. Despite being targeted by various weapons, Israel's military superiority and alliances have helped it defend against most threats. Adversaries resort to terrorism, targeting civilians and using human shields. Israel has eliminated terrorists, destroyed missile sites, and countered threats effectively. Moving forward, options include maintaining the status quo, appeasing terrorists, or applying overwhelming force. Israel faces an existential threat and may need to escalate to de-escalate the conflict. Prayers are for protection, unity, and lasting peace in this challenging situation. Israel may escalate militarily to subdue enemies and create conditions for peace.

Please see my new article in the Times of Israel called "One, Two, Three, Knockout."

Israel has achieved a significant milestone by eliminating Hezbollah’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, in a precise airstrike in Beirut. This marks the second phase of Israel’s strategic plan to counter radical Jihadist Iran and its terrorist proxies. Following the defeat of Hamas in Gaza, Israel is now focused on dismantling Hezbollah in Lebanon. The plan includes advancing armored forces to the Litani River to recreate a buffer zone, providing strategic depth and setting the stage for future peace negotiations. Israel aims to maintain control of this zone until a comprehensive peace agreement is reached, similar to the land-for-peace deal with Egypt in 1979. If Lebanon fails to pursue peace, Israel may consider making the demilitarized zone permanent or annexing the territory. The final phase will address the existential threat posed by Iran’s nuclear ambitions, with Israel determined to secure its state from further aggression.

Israel's Incredible Ingenuity

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Israel's Incredible Ingenuity."

What an extraordinary week it has been for the Mossad, Shin Bet, and IDF. Through meticulous planning and flawless execution, they successfully thwarted an assassination attempt on Israel’s leadership, infiltrated Hezbollah’s supply chain, neutralizing thousands of terrorists equipped with newly acquired pagers and tactical radios, and effectively dismantled the entire leadership of Hezbollah’s Radwan Special Forces.

At its core, this is one of the miracles of modern-day Israel: technology, science, and human ingenuity coexist and thrive alongside tremendous faith in the Almighty. With the literal miracles witnessed this week, I believe more and more people are recognizing the hand of G-d behind it all.
