I found out about a so-called &#8220;boycott&#8221; of Israeli products at Trader Joe&#8217;s a few weeks ago. Of course, I went straight to the store to buy as many Israeli products as I could get my hands on. Guess what? Most of the Israeli food-stuffs had already sold out. Not really surprising [...]]]></description>

On the surface, that the Obama administration decided one fine day to pick a fight with the government of Israel looks like an unmitigated disaster for the Jewish state. What could be worse than its most important ally provoking the worst crisis (according to the Israeli ambassador to Washington) since 1975?

It is important to understand that the current controversy over construction in east Jerusalem is neither a public relations&#8217; problem nor a bilateral policy dispute. It arises because of things having nothing directly to do with this specific point.

Right now, Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW) is taking place in more than a dozen cities and on many college campuses. In past years, IAW has been marked by extreme anti-Israel rhetoric, including accusations of Israeli racism and apartheid, and calls for boycott and divestment campaigns against Israel. We anticipate similar efforts to delegitimize [...]]]></description>

For years now, newly arrived refugees have been contacting me. They write to tell me that they&#8217;ve lost nearly everybody they once knew. Their whole world is gone now. Some whisper over the phone. Others write long letters. They ask me how I&#8217;ve managed.
I am talking about ideological refugees from feminism, leftism, gay [...]]]></description>

International relations isn&#8217;t a popularity contest. But public opinion polls can be useful in countering myths and examining the impact of policymaker, elite, and media campaigns on the masses. 
Which brings us to Gallup&#8217;s latest poll measuring how Americans feel about different countries. The more one examines the results, the more amazing they [...]]]></description>

Is it inconsistent for Muslim &#8220;holy warriors&#8221; to engage in voyeuristic acts of lasciviousness? Because would-be jihadists and martyrs have been known to frequent strip bars &#8212; such as the 9/11 hijackers and Major Nidal Hasan, whose &#8220;late-night jiggle-joint carousing stands at odds with the picture of a devout Muslim&#8221; &#8212; many Americans [...]]]></description>

The arrest and indictment of top military figures in Turkey last week precipitated potentially the most severe crisis since Atatürk founded the republic in 1923. The weeks ahead will probably indicate whether the country continues its slide toward Islamism or reverts to its traditional secularism. The denouement has major implications for Muslims everywhere.
