Excellent piece, Sikander.

The results of Israel's war were predictable and avoidable within the days following the October 7th attack.

America had an opportunity to not support the full scale invasion of Gaza. This likely wouldn't have stopped Netanyahu's "Mighty vengeance," but Israel's greatest ally would have applied brakes.

Biden failed to take this bold action, which he could have fiercely defended to be in Israeli interests.

I wrote, "Was Biden Netanyahu's Chum or Chump?" which remains relevant. I invite you to read it.

Many thanks. Best.
