Rabbi Steven Pruzansky in Israel National News: The missing piece
There’s a reason local Arabs always reject the two-state delusion. They do not want us here and they will never abandon the dream of expelling us.

Rabbi Yaakov Menken in The Daily Signal: How ADL’s Partisanship Harms the Fight Against Antisemitism
The ADL’s silence and even expressed tolerance for left-wing antisemitism permits that antisemitism to fester.

Rabbi Steven Pruzansky in Israel National News: Biden’s Zionism
Biden is a “lifelong supporter” of a certain type of Israel – docile, concessionary, secular, and deferential to American interests.

Rabbi Steven Pruzansky in Israel National News: The Ramadan Ruse
We should show as much concern for Ramadan as our enemies showed for our Simchat Torah this year or our Yom Kippur of 1973.

Rabbi Steven Pruzansky in The Jewish Press: Banish UNRWA From Jerusalem
UNRWA fails to resettle its inhabitants in permanent residences. Instead, it stokes grievances against Israel through its “educational” activities.

Rabbi Steven Pruzansky in Israel National News: The empty toolbox
Faithfulness to the Torah is the key to our continued residence in our Holy Land. It provides our spiritual worthiness.

Rabbi Dov Fischer in The American Spectator: Cut Off the UNRWA
It is a corrupt, Jew-hating, anti-American, terrorist-training institution. UNRWA is singularly responsible for the Gazan Arab effort to destroy Israel.

Rabbi Steven Pruzansky in Israel National News: At any price
Do we unwittingly embolden Hamas in their sadistic cruelty when we exhibit the desperation implicit in the calls for a hostage release “at any price”?

Rabbi Dov Fischer in Israel National News: Meditations on Trump, Obama, Iowa and New Hampshire, Europe, and Exile
American Jews must understand that America is Exile. It’s not home. Israel is ours, while America is a place of respite to take shelter amid the storm.

Rabbi Steven Pruzansky in Israel National News: Innocents Abroad
That the civilians of Gaza are so docile means that they are either cowardly – or complicit. Innocent they certainly are not.
