If #France is ready to recognize a #palestinianstate, why doesn't the #UK follow suit? . In my latest article in @haaretz, I argue that Britain's PM Keir Starmer has gone to great lengths to place himself in the good graces of President Trump and sees little value in.

Trump doesn’t know what he wants. Unfortunately, Putin does.
People just don’t get it. If trump was really angry at Putin and wanted to sanction Russia, he could do that right now. He has that power. Yet time and again he delays, and says he will do it in “weeks”. The only rational conclusion is that he doesn’t want to sanction Putin.

With the understandable media focus on #Gaza, it is easy to forget that #Israel has chalked up an important succcess with #Hezbollah which poses a stronger threat than #Hamas. Around three quarters of Israelis who had evacuated their homes in the North feel a heightened sense.

Worth paying close attention to this from @LTCPeterLerner, former IDF Spokesman:."Military success should serve a political purpose. But here, the political is sabotaging the military: more soldiers will die for a war without end, hostages are being left behind, and Israel.
Netanyahu’s Gaza gamble at what cost?.Reporters were briefed this evening that Netanyahu has decided to “conquer Gaza”, a maximalist military objective that comes at a devastating human cost and, worse, risks the lives of the remaining Israeli hostages. This is political survival
