Powerful NPR look at how US Gaza policy contributed to catastrophe https://t.co/H4Bj5N9Jl9

[Nicholas Kristof @NickKristof]

Biden aides say, correctly, that the catastrophe in Gaza would have been even worse if they hadn't pressed Netanyahu to allow aid in. But Biden failed utterly to use his leverage -- arms transfers -- to get Israel to back off policies of leveling entire neighborhoods and starving civilians. So as I see it, it's true that Biden's Gaza policy could have been worse, but what a sad argument to make when American weapons have been responsible for the deaths of 18,000 children, for leaving Gaza with the highest concentration of child amputees in the world. On Biden's watch, Gaza marked a moral and practical failure that stains us all. https://t.co/gyl9DlNQe5

Analysts expect Turkey to be influential in the Middle East, but not to seek hegemony in the way that Iran has with its proxies.
"Turkey can be very influential as an actor, but within limits. And if it manages the situation well, it will benefit heavily."

The Muslim holy month of Ramadan arrived Monday with no news of a cease-fire in Gaza, raising further concerns about tensions spreading to Jerusalem, where the Al-Aqsa mosque sits at the very center of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
