In 1944, prior to the Allied invasion of France, a pivotal point in the Second World War, Lt. Gen. George S. Patton gave a memorable speech to rouse the troops on the eve of that fateful landing.
“Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser,” Patton boomed. “Americans play to win all the time. I wouldn’t give a hoot in hell for a man who lost, and laughed. That’s why Americans have never lost and will never lose a war.”
Enemies of the West in general and the U.S. in particular took note and felt emboldened, celebrating the retreat while firing up their wildest imaginations.The subsequent war of self-defense by Israel does not just pit the Jewish State against the genocidal terrorists of Hamas. It is a war between radical Islamism on one side and the West and regional moderates on the other.
This war is far more important than the mere defeat of Hamas. It is about delivering a large blow to the rapidly ascendant Islamists who believe they are on their way to ultimate victory.In the early days of the war, the U.S. declared to allies and enemies alike that it is a strong and determined ally.
Iran sees cracks in American fortitude, and the abstention on a recent U.N. Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire not connected to the release of over 100 hostages and without a condemnation of Hamas sent exactly the wrong kind of signal.

Trade Volume Between Türkiye and Israel Declines SignificantlyThe trade volume between Türkiye and Israel has declined significantly since Israel's invasion of Gaza began last year, data from the Turkish Trade Ministry suggests. From October 7 to March 20 this year, the total Türkiye-Israel trade volume fell by nearly 33 percent, according to information compiled by the Figures sourced from the Trade Ministry and compiled by Anadolu reveal a substantial 33 percent decrease in Türkiye's trade interaction with Israel from October 7, 2023, to March 20, 2024. Meanwhile, Türkiye's exports to Israel fell 30 percent, while its imports decreased by 43.4 percent. Turkish nationals and companies have been gradually cancelling sales and orders with Israel, while trade is mostly with private firms, including some international ones, rather than state enterprises. Goods sent from Türkiye to Palestine pass through Israel and its customs gates due to Palestine's lack of its own customs facilities. Goods destined for Palestine are required to be labelled for Israel or include the phrase "via Israel." In addition, Israel does not recognise legal relations between Palestine and third countries, while it refuses to allow commercial transactions through the Rafah Border Crossing with Egypt. As a result, trade between third countries and Palestine is logged overwhelmingly as trade with Israel in data reflected in national statistics.

Pelosi praises Schumer’s speech on Israel, says ‘Israel’s reputation is at risk’“Chuck Schumer’s speech was an act of courage, an act of love, for Israel, and I wish the prime minister would read the whole speech, because he speaks with great vehemence about the need to defeat Hamas. He is concerned about the weakness of the Palestinian Authority and the very very dangerous attitude of the right wing Israeli government.
