Lessons From The Israel-Gaza Conflict

 

Lessons From The Israel-Gaza Conflict   The conflict in Gaza over the last two weeks highlighted a number of misperceptions and emerging trends between the United States and Israel. While the Biden administration largely supported Israel's right to defend itself, it became clear as the conflict wore on that impatience was growing in America, mainly among Democrats.     After Ceasefire, Israeli Conflict Shifts To U.S.   There may not be rockets flying over Gaza, but there are certainly verbal grenades being lobbed on Capitol Hill. While the Middle East embraces a fragile peace, the ceasefire in Israel hasn't managed to stop the internal war here at home. For the first time in generations, a major political party is openly challenging our alliance with Israel.     Europe's Anti-Israel Protests Do Not Bode Well For Future Conflicts   Pro-Palestinian demonstrations in cities across Europe have descended into unrestrained orgies of anti-Semitism after protesters opposed to Israeli military action in the Gaza Strip openly called for the destruction of Israel and death to Jews.     Pentagon Marches Towards AI Taking The Kill Shot   Dozens of autonomous war machines capable of deadly force conducted a field training exercise south of Seattle last August. The exercise involved no human operators but strictly robots powered with artificial intelligence, seeking mock enemy combatants.
