Zack, Jenn, and Alex take a look at how, after more than a week of fighting, the war between Israel and Hamas is already reshaping the contours of the broader Israeli-Palestinian conflict — deepening entrenched political realities, shaking up alliances, and reframing how the various players view their roles in the fight and the prospect of finding a peaceful solution to the decades-long conflict.

Zack wrote for Vox about whether the US-Israel alliance is doomed.

Alex’s Vox story is on why Biden won’t push Israel harder on Gaza.

Alex also has Vox pieces on why the Abraham Accords didn’t solve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the growing Democratic Party split on Israel.

The New York Times has a smart piece on the Palestinian strikes.
