Terror Surge
While resumed peace negotiations quietly continue, a sharp hike in terrorist attacks by Israelis and Palestinians in the last month could upset the already shaky peace process, says Aaron Magid.
Now What?
Recent protests and irate parliamentarians prove that the Israeli Supreme Court ruling on African migrants won't solve the problem all by itself, says Aaron Magid.
Backsliding
Kerry has pressured the E.U. to lift sanctions against Israeli products and institutions originating in West Bank settlements. Although his intentions are good, his strategy is not, explains Aaron Magid.
Wise, Not Weak
Whatever his critics say, President Obama had little choice but to seek the approval of Congress before authorizing intervention in Syria, explains Aaron Magid.
Numbers Game
Can Netanyahu successfully shepherd his fractious coalition through the minefield of peace negotiations? Aaron Magid breaks down the numbers.
Role Model
If anyone is suited to sell a peace accord to the Israeli public, then Netanyahu, like Sharon, with his history of right-wing ideology, is the perfect man for the job.
Public Perception
Both Israeli and Palestinian leaders have failed to prepare the public to accept the concessions necessary for a final negotiated settlement, argues Aaron Magid.
