Latest ArticlesBiden holds the line on Israel against staff dissent — for nowNovember 3, 2023 • The Washington Examiner For the past few weeks, President Joe Biden has been steady in his public support for Israel following Hamas's murderous Oct. 7 rampage.

Evening and Morning in IsraelOctober 16, 2023 • First Things Like many American Jews, I learned of the horrific terror attack on Israel while in synagogue. The Saturday of the attack was the first day of a two-day festival, Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah, during which Orthodox Jews do not use electricity: no phones, no TV, no radio, no Internet, a complete news blackout. Even so, word about what was happening started to trickle among us. People learned the news from Gentile neighbors and would pass it on. At first, we heard there were 20 casualties, then 200, then 300. (It was not until the holiday ended Sunday night that we heard there were more than 700 dead, a number that has now exceeded 1,300.)

Worse still, from their perspective, is the survey's finding that Biden is trailing in a head-to-head matchup against his likely Republican opponent. The feeling is bipartisan: 70% of voters don't think Biden should run for reelection. Yet Biden remains undeterred. And if the president is simply trying to wait out the doubters until his candidacy becomes inevitable, he might need a new strategy: History shows that many past presidents have both mulled and even chosen to drop out of the race later in the cycle than we are now.
