Playing Politics with Gaza
E. Rowell: This is a brilliant analysis of Israel’s position at this point in the war vis a vis the US Biden Administration, as well as of Iran’s position, and the position of the US. It is painful at times to listen to the degree to which the US has gone to empower Iran and Hamas, and all of Iran’s proxies while now publicly deciding the time is up for Jews to defend themselves. In addition, government propaganda in the US blames Israel for the unrest in the Middle East! Biden and Obama did everything they could to destabilize the Middle East via empowerment of Iran, and now they want to shift the blame to the Jews. Even members of the Mossad negotiating with Qatar are part of the problem.

President Joe Biden and Sen. Chuck Schumer are losing patience with Israel’s defensive war in Gaza. While pressing Israel for “regime change” they are also threatening greater American pressure to achieve an outcome that suits the administration’s political priorities. But the Government of Israel has priorities as well, chiefly to ensure the security of the citizens while leaving a path for peaceful relations with its neighbors. Reconciliation appears difficult.
