Daniel Levy of the U.S./Middle East Project says that U.S. involvement in the ongoing war on Iran is being driven by Israel's expansionist ambitions in the Middle East. "Israel is still on the impunity high from its Gaza genocide, which has led us here." Levy, a former Israeli peace negotiator, also provides analysis of current U.S., Israeli and Iranian wartime strategy, as well as potential ceasefire negotiations and Israel's settler and soldier-backed ethnic cleansing of the occupied West Bank. "I think this will ultimately end very badly for Israel and generate tremendous blowback. But in the meantime, it is again the Palestinians bearing the brunt."

What is really tragic is that most Americans have no idea what's happening or why. They all have their heads buried in the sand.
