The conflict has widened. The explanation hasn’t changed. On Democracies and Death Cults is now out in paperback. To understand what many in the West still refuse to see, start here.

RT @spectator: I am considering sticking on a pair of prosthetic breasts and applying for a job at Oxford University. The Spectator paying what it does, all of us columnists must have a side-hustle of sorts. Perhaps this could be mine. The thought is inspired by the emergence into the news of Matt Rattley, a lecturer in biochemistry at St Hilda's College, Oxford. I know it is unkind to attack people for their looks, so allow me to describe Rattley's appearance in as neutral a manner as possible. Rattley is clearly a man – or to put it in the language of our time, he is someone who was 'assigned male at birth'. Which is to say that after the moment of birth one of those cruel NHS nurses who are so stretched for time dangled him upside down, jiggled him about a bit and said: 'Sod it, Doreen, let's just put "boy" again.' ✍️ Douglas Murray Article | | @DouglasKMurray

RT @spectator: Douglas Murray says the alliance between Western progressives and Islamists has one fatal flaw: the Islamists will shoot you first. He points to Iran in 1979, when leftists, trade unionists and communists helped Ayatollah Khomeini overthrow the Shah – only to be massacred and hanged once the Islamic regime took power.

RT @TheFP: Although Israel’s politicians have to portray their opponents as weak and feckless during election season, the truth is that, when it comes to the country’s security, there is very little light between Netanyahu and anyone who could replace him. The fact that almost every potential successor is a former princeling of Netanyahu is some evidence of that. Gadi Eisenkot, Bennett, Avigdor Lieberman, and others have been colleagues of or dauphins to Netanyahu at some point. The idea that any of them would have a regional defense policy distinct from Netanyahu’s is a fantasy. @DouglasKMurray on how “Bibi Derangement Syndrome” is spreading.

RT @TheFP: In the lead-up to the Israeli election, many people outside Israel who are more concerned with perceptions than with the realities on the ground asked me whether I thought the replacement of Netanyahu as prime minister would have any effect on global opinion. My answer tended to be the same: The positive impact of a new prime minister would last only a matter of hours writes @DouglasKMurray

RT @TheFP: No matter how the next Israeli government shapes up after this week’s election, anti-Zionists, antisemites, and peaceniks around the world will feel no less hostile to the country, regardless if Netanyahu remains in power or not writes @DouglasKMurray.

RT @SpecCoffeeHouse: Is the Left’s focus on Israel driven by genuine humanitarian concern? Douglas Murray questions why events in the West Bank dominate headlines when there is arguably greater suffering in places such as Syria, Yemen, Saudi Arabia and Turkey.

RT @spectator: In the second part of Michael Gove's conversation with Douglas Murray, they discuss the rise of antisemitism, the Left's obsession with Palestine and the unlikely alliance between Islamists and the radical Left. What does the future hold for Israel – and would replacing Netanyahu really change anything? They also turn to the things that make Western civilisation worth defending, from Britain's great cathedrals to classical music and literature. Despite the challenges facing the West, can it be saved even at the 13th hour? Listen | | @michaelgove @DouglasKMurray
