Britain, Canada, and France's proposed "solution" of an Islamic state within Israel's borders – ostensibly in the name of their own "fundamental national interest" -- read re-election by the newcomer voting bloc -- would undoubtedly lead to another disaster like October 7, 2023.

Why are France and other parts of Europe going up in flames? No one tried to stop the marauders when they could. Many people, apparently, would rather be conquered by rapists, stabbers, car-rammers and beheaders than be called a racist. There also seems

Why is the Palestinian Authority's ruling Fatah faction treating Hamas as a legitimate political partner before the group has demonstrated a willingness to abandon terrorism, surrender its weapons, and relinquish its independent military forces?

Why is Fatah treating Hamas as a legitimate political partner before the group has demonstrated a willingness to abandon terrorism, surrender its weapons, and relinquish its independent military forces? The question is particularly urgent as the

Jared Kushner had the Abraham Accords. What will Massad Boulos (Senior Advisor to the President for Arab and African Affairs) leave behind? The photograph should document a victory — not substitute for one.

Six years later, despite regional wars, those relationships [of the Abraham Accords] endure. The Abraham Accords produced something more valuable than a ceremony: a measurable change in relations between states. That is the standard by which presidential

Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, it appears, is directing most of the state's resources, foreign aid included, toward a large standing army and new weapons systems, while concealing the scale of the effort.

The most concrete illustration of tax-exempt Islamist groups stepping directly into US electoral contests involves the 2026 Michigan Democratic Party primary for the US Senate. Abdul El-Sayed prevailed on August 4 by roughly 13,800 votes — a margin under one percent. In the preceding weeks, imams at several tax-exempt Michigan mosques urged support for him from the pulpit, and two of them brought the candidate onto the pulpit during services.

A Muslim's duty, we were taught in the Middle East, is to promote and establish Islamic government. Failing to do so means one's religion and duty to Allah remain incomplete. Everyone must perform jihad (holy war; struggle in the cause of Islam) to

On June 30, Ahmed Yetrib, a Belgian Muslim who converted to Catholicism, reported receiving death threats on social media, partly because he was sharing his reasons for converting. His ordeal began in 2018, when he was baptized, at which point his entire family ostracized him.

"Witnesses said Ahmad confronted Siddique and objected to his drinking water from the same cooler because he was a Christian.... Ahmad... grabbed Siddique from behind and slit his throat." — Morning Star News, June 24, 2026, Pakistan. "Sadique's murder

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has done it again. On October 10, he announced that elections to the Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC), originally scheduled for November 2026, will be postponed until September 11, 2027.

[H]olding elections under the current circumstances will almost certainly strengthen Hamas.... On the other hand, Abbas's decision cannot be mistaken for a genuine effort to reform anything in Palestinian politics. While elections can be important, they

A truce confined to refineries would shield Russia's principal vulnerability and leave Ukraine's electric grid open to further attacks as winter sets in. That suits Putin, who, according to sources familiar with his thinking, wants no energy truce before winter and is counting on Ukrainian suffering blackouts in the winter cold to extract concessions his army has failed to win.

Wars of attrition are won by whoever can keep paying for them, and Vladimir Putin has spent more than four and a half years betting that Ukraine's Western partners would tire before Russia's treasury did. In three days, Washington gave that bet its best

The founder and leader of France Unbowed, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, is a Trotskyist who, already in his youth, embraced the concept of "permanent revolution". Over the years he has made no secret of his desire for a radical transformation of France. He supports the Islamization of the country and advocates a "great replacement" of the native French population with a new demographic from the Muslim world that would constitute what he calls the "new France."

Communist China continues to pursue a deliberate and calculated military strategy designed to gain global dominance at a time and place of its choosing. It is now placing its military aircraft on an air base in neighboring Laos.

The United States has long known that projecting the power of its democracy abroad requires access to air bases far beyond our borders. Like many other things, China is a focused student of America, so it should come as no surprise that the Communist
