As the Gaza war grinds on, and famine nears, re-upping this from Thanassis Cambanis and me.

The U.S. has failed both morally, and by the amoral metric of 'victory'. If it is to sustain its global standing, the war should force a rethink of U.S. foreign policy.

Century International fellow Sam Heller | سام هيلر argues that it's too late for the United States to try to moderate Israeli tactics in Gaza. It needs to stop this war—and then rethink its whole relationship with Israel. tcf.org/content/commen…

While Israel lays waste to Gaza, it is violently squeezing the West Bank.

US policy could stop the outrages on the West Bank that are making a Palestinian state ever more unlikely.

Nearly 12 percent of NY state primary voters cast blank ballots on Tuesday — the only option we had to signal dissent from Biden's Gaza policy.

In my borough of Brooklyn, 25 percent cast blank ballots.

It's time to end the war in Gaza.

Correct — the focus on Netanyahu avoids the inconvenient fact that a majority of Israel's public, and of its government, supports the war.

Don’t forget to leave your ballot blank today if you’re voting in the New York State primary. It still gets counted and don’t let anyone at the polling station tell you otherwise!

New Yorkers can make our voices heard by casting a vote in the Democratic primary tomorrow.

Casting a blank ballot sends the same message as an uncommitted vote in other states: that Biden needs to stop the war in Gaza.

The war in Gaza needs to stop immediately. But there is going to be another tragic consequence — disease that causes more avoidable death and suffering.

In parallel to working toward a ceasefire, we should insist immediately on a joint Palestinian-Israeli health commision.

Gaza’s health crisis doesn’t respect borders. Cooperation between Israelis and Palestinians is critical for everyone. — Dahlia Scheindlin in a new Century International commentary

Palestinians and Israelis are one epidemiological family. Israel's war has created a public health emergency threatening everyone in Gaza. It will not stop at borders.

Progressives must develop a new foreign policy that promotes American values but understands the limits of American power.

“Biden and his aides have shown no interest in applying a law which says the US should not be sending bombs to a foreign government that is preventing food and other aid from reaching civilians facing mass starvation” — my latest The Guardian theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
