Political scientist Nathan Brown says Israel is waging a different war in Gaza than U.S. officials are willing to admit.
Just as the United States did in Iraq and Afghanistan, Israel entered a war in Gaza with vague and overly ambitious goals.
But what U.S. officials don’t want to admit is that Israel isn’t thinking about the end of the military phase or the beginning of a civilian reconstruction plan, says Nathan Brown, professor of international relations and political science. at George Washington University.
Brown told host Steve Clemons that Israel deliberately framed the carnage in Gaza as a “forever war” — not something that will ever be resolved, especially with a “blank check” from the United States.
