Hardly any aid is making it into Gaza after the primary artery for humanitarian supplies & food, the Rafah crossing, has been severed. Things are regressing as combat operations in the north, Rafah & center are increasing. It's once again time for massive humanitarian…

The IDF's 'clear and leave' instead of 'clear, hold, and build' strategy in fighting Hamas during what is undeniably a counterinsurgency operation, coupled with no 'day after' plans or sustainable off-ramps, means tactical successes will give way to a strategic defeat in Gaza.

'I've seen combat in war zones...this is nothing like this...I've done more amputations & seen more traumatic amputations of children than I've seen during my entire career in the last 2 weeks.' Dr. Adam Hamawy, fmr trauma surgeon who served in Iraq, on the conditions in Gaza

Think of how vile and hateful you'd have to be to destroy large shipments of perfectly fine food headed to Gaza's population which is already facing unbelievable hardships & just lost the main artery for letting in aid (the Rafah border crossing). Israeli authorities' failure to…

Could this lovely cartoon from The Economist possibly refer to Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib and myself? 😄

I’ve been in Cairo for a couple of days, meeting with family members and others from Gaza who survived the war and managed to escape Rafah right before the Israeli military’s invasion and takeover of Gaza’s southernmost city’s border crossing with Egypt. The horrors that these…

Brilliantly said; a reformed Palestinian Authority that has credibility & legitimacy is the key to postwar Gaza, the Two State Solution, normalization with Saudi Arabia & countering Hamas. US diplomacy has failed to pressure actual/real reform & allowed Abbas to maintain his grip

Spent hours last night frantically trying to find out if the 9 Alkhatib children killed in Gaza by IDF bombardment were near & distant surviving relatives in the coastal enclave. Found out they belong to a different Alkhatib family; horrendously heartbreaking nevertheless💔💔

#TelAviv tonight: Tens of thousands of anti-govt protesters are again on the streets calling for the immediate ousting of @Netanyahu and his inept, corrupt, and messianic clan. #GazaWar

🚨 CPJ is still demanding accountability in the Israeli military killing of #ShireenAbuAkleh two years ago.

Today, we call on the FBI to expedite its investigation and to release a timeline for its conclusion. Watch:

I welcome the UN's decision to upgrade the status of the State of Palestine. Now all 193 UN member states should officially recognize the state of Palestine. This is also the time for all UN member states to also recognize the State of Israel. It is time to implement the…

Dramatic and bizarre theatrics at the UN are quite embarrassing and not befitting of an international diplomat. Israel was created by the UN, the very agency that Mr. Gilad is attacking for supporting full Palestinian membership at the international body, a long overdue step.

Aljazeera Arabic, Hamas's official & undisputed propaganda outlet that destabilized the entire region, continues to create the fake perception that the group's fighters in flip flops & civilian clothes are wiping out the IDF's ground troops who are being routed and defeated. This…

A disturbing report about the conditions under which detainees from Gaza are held by the Israeli military. Most were arbitrarily gathered inside the Strip during ground operations, including my sister-in-law's brother & her brother-in-law, who were captured in Khan Younis three…

The UAE just rebuked Netanyahu's call for the Gulf nation to participate in administering the Gaza Strip under direct Israeli occupation, saying that Bibi lacks the legitimacy/authority for such decision making & only when a competent, legitimate Palestinian government that…
