The late Moshe Arens, the product of a ‘proud generation’
In the image of his ideological mentor, Ze’ev Jabotinsky, the Latvia-born Israeli became a pillar of professional and political achievement—a voice of reason during the crucial development of the Jewish state.

The late Moshe Arens: A noble spirit, a truthful man
The life story of my faithful teacher and close friend, the late Moshe (“Misha”) Arens, ended after he had the privilege of seeing Israel celebrate 70 years of independence. That national peak filled his heart with great satisfaction.

Reactions pour in following death of Moshe Arens, 93
“As ambassador, he worked to strengthen the ties between the U.S. and Israel, and was a visionary about the need for Israel to utilize modern technologies and methods to get its message across. His clarity of thought and well-reasoned arguments never failed to impress even Israel’s opponents.”

Moshe Arens, right-wing political figure and three-time Defense Minister, dies
He is considered to be one of Benjamin Netanyahu’s most formative mentors, taking him to the Washington embassy in 1982 and appointing him deputy minister of the Foreign Ministry in 1988, the first high-level public service positions the young Netanyahu held.

Recalling tense ties between George H.W. Bush and Israel
Close associates of Peres to this day point to Bush’s Secretary of State James Baker as one of the factors behind Peres’s move. Known for his critical approach to Israel, Baker issued tough demands for negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians.

Arens, you’re wrong about the law
In effect, all nationalism entails some form of discrimination because it gives priority to the cultural and national characteristics of one group over those of another.
