Robert Bernier commented on Israel Insider's blog post 'Approval of swap for Shalit believed likely'

Liberating kidnapped Israeli soldiers. When Israel makes exchanges that are unequal, it is only natural for Israel’s enemies to view the illegal kidnapping of Israeli civilians and soldiers, and the violation of their legal rights in captivity, as a…

Most of us would agree, I think, that Jimmy Carter is a very flawed man. We are all flawed, but he is several orders of magnitude beyond the average imperfect human being. His apology to the Jewish people, then, presents somewhat of a moral dilemma.…

Despite all the hope that Shalit will be released, it is unlikely to happen. The reason is simple. Netanyahu cannot see a way for him to gain either politically or personally. Until he does he will not agree. Israel truly has fallen on hard times as…

Netanyahu inner cabinet says 'Yes' to swap, with big 'But'

Benjamin Netanyahu convened the six senior ministers for what was to be the decisive meeting of his "inner cabinet" regarding a possible prisoner exchange with Hamas, in which some 950 Palestinians, including scores involved in murdering Israelis, were to be released in exchange for abducted soldier Gilad Shalit.

In the end, according to foreign reports echoed in the local media, Israel agreed in principle to the Hamas demand but attached a caveat that may scuttle the deal… Continue

Carter begs forgiveness for stigmatizing Israel, may change title of his book

Former US President Jimmy Carter on Monday has begged the American Jewish community to forgive him for stigmatizing the Jewish State over the years, and his begging may yield some big-time bucks.

Carter, the former peanut farmer who grew to be one of the most disliked and least successful American presidents, has outraged Jews with his provocative anti-Israel speeches and writing as epitomized by the title of his book "Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid."

In that book, Carter… Continue

Livni cancels UK visit after arrest warrant for "war crimes" is issued

The Foreign Ministry on Tuesday called for an end to the "absurd situation" in which arrest warrants were being issued to Israeli officials over alleged "war crimes" in the Gaza Strip. "Only actions can put an end to this absurd situation, which would have seemed a comedy of errors were it not so serious," said the Foreign Ministry, a day after it emerged that opposition leader Tzipi Livni had canceled her trip to Britain after a warrant was issued for her arrest.

The attacker hurled himself at Rabbi Dov Gruzman, principal of the city’s Jewish school run by the Chabad-Lubavitch Chassidic movement, and began punching him, a local resident told Arutz Sheva.
