The Action Update: Rockets Fired at Israel

We work in politics, so we endeavor to be diplomatic. But there’s no diplomatic way of articulating the current situation: The Biden Administration’s Middle Eastern foreign policy approach is a slow-burning failure. And as you’ll see below, that belief isn’t rooted in one’s party or ideology – no one thinks that Team Biden’s approach to Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, etc… is working. So, the question is simple: When is the Biden Administration going to get it together? As far as we’re

The Action Update: The Iran-Russia Mistake

In this week’s Action Update we focus on Iran, but as the following indicates, nothing exists in a vacuum.

It’s not too late for a course correction, but with each passing day the turn we must take becomes sharper. Read complete
