Israel's Legal Avenues for Prisoner Releases

Earlier this week, Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert announced that Israel would release “many Palestinian prisoners” once captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit is released. Some policymakers believe this prisoner exchange might strengthen Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas and improve Israeli relations with the Palestinians. According to official information, there are

For many long years it was fair to describe the development of Saudi Arabia's foreign policy in terms of the "dynamics of inaction." The Wahhabi royal house followed an essentially cautious, awkward, defensive path of diplomacy, rarely taking the initiative, and prefering to remain in the shadowy realm of influence

The Holocaust's Arab Heroes

Virtually alone among peoples of the world, Arabs appear to have won a free pass when it comes to denying or minimizing the Holocaust.

A Preliminary Assessment

In the wake of Israel's inconclusive summer war with Hizballah, many unanswered questions remain about the conduct and implications of the conflict. For example, were Israel's military achievements worth the apparent costs, including a weakened overall deterrence posture and the shelving of further unilateral withdrawal from the West Bank? And

The Israeli-Islamist War

Who won the summer war between Israel and Hizbullah? Right after the ceasefire, Hizbullah and its Iranian patrons declared the war a "divine victory," and the Economist concurred, running this headline across its cover: "Nasrallah Wins the War." Israel sank into a funk of self-recrimination. But a few weeks later

Lebanon: Why So?

From the outset, there was no “victory” to be had in this war, no resounding knockout. Still, the final score, on points, should have turned out very different from this. The perception that we’ve ended in a draw is actually a great achievement for Hizballah, one that all terror organizations
