ISIS Warned Not to Test Israel’s Resolve

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed a Likud Party meeting Monday evening regarding the rockets fired into Israel the day before by the Islamic State (IS) terror militia and Israel’s response. We will not tolerate even isolated fire, and we will respond forcefully and attack our enemies when necessary before they succeed in attacking us,” he said. “We will not permit radical Islam or any other hostile entity to open a front of terror against us on the Golan.”

A pragmatist like Reagan, President Trump will face three urgent foreign policy issues: renegotiating the Iran nuclear deal with a US-Israel military option and Russia’s acquiescence; resolving the human catastrophe in Syria in partnership with President Putin; and a Great Bargain with Putin on the Ukraine.
