(JNS) — Palestinian Authority head Mahmoud Abbas recently claimed that the First and Second Jewish temples were in Yemen, not Jerusalem, citing the Quran. Not only does all reputable archeological research locate the temples in Jerusalem, but the Quran does not assert that they were in Yemen.

This is the final consideration, with conclusions presented. To avoid confusion, the term West Bank will be used here when referring to Judea and Samaria. Israel’s Obligation to a Two-State Solution Israel’s four most influential prime ministers were possessed of differing personalities, political philosophies, and security challenges. They were consistent in recognition of the Palestinian National Identity that required geographic commitment to self-governance and political consequence. However, any implementation must be subject to the sac...
(JNS) — A fourth round of talks between Tehran’s envoys and Steve Witkoff, U.S. President Donald Trump’s lead negotiator, did not take place in Rome over the weekend as had been expected. Neither Tehran’s spokesmen nor the State Department gave a clear explanation for why, but I’ll venture a guess: Iran’s rulers want concessions in exchange for continuing to talk.
