"This is a country that would have voted for Trump over Harris by more than America did…I can’t think of a more popular politician in Israel than the newly returning President of the United States" - The Times of Israel's @davidhorovitz, speaking tday on a @WashInstitute panel


In other news... Story today with @DanLamothe: As Middle East crisis grinds on, Pentagon shows signs of strain wapo.st/3C8DXTt


The Houthis “have convinced a lot of ppl that what they’re doing is helpful. I ask ppl, ‘How on earth do you think this is benefiting the Palestinians? Or even Hamas?’” said @Ibishblog The answer he gets: “Well anything that pushes back against the genocide.” Link in prev tweet

State Dept responds to our reporting: "We have consistently made clear to the government of Israel our serious concerns...& their need to do more to minimize civilian deaths… yes, we are reviewing a number of incidents...we have not yet... been able to make final determinations"

The State Dept Responds to nearly 500 reports of unnecessary harm to civilians by Israel using American Weapons . More than 1 year later for many of them they are still working on it.

Current and former U.S. officials described a process that, while detailed on paper, has become functionally irrelevant with more-senior leaders at the State Department broadly dismissive of non-Israeli sources and unwilling to sign off on action plans. @ahauslohner and me.
