Qatar supports Hamas, houses Taliban leaders, and funds antisemitism on American campuses, so why is it still America's 'indispensable' Middle East partner?

With only 25% of Hamas tunnels destroyed, the new operation doesn't seem likely to make a difference.

With US President Donald Trump sidelining Israel in his Middle East policies, Israel must strategize a more independent course.

Dalia Ziada: If we want to bring peace to the Middle East, there are three key players they need to focus on and find ways to make them work together: Israel, Egypt, and Jordan.

Steve Witkoff said that the US was "open to compromise" within Iran nuclear talks, only to backtrack his comments and call for the elimination of Iran's nuclear enrichment and weaponization program.

American regional security depends on Israel transforming its tactical victories against Hamas. The last thing Israel needs is internal strife that contributes to regional destabilization.

After Trump’s bombshell remark concerning Gaza’s future, the next logical step for President Trump is to confront the half-truths and outright falsehoods of the Palestinian narrative.

Regardless of the reason, now is the time for Israel to address this issue head-on before a future Republican isolationist or Progressive Democratic president takes the initiative first.

Keeping Israel strong is in America’s interest because the Jewish state is the US’s only reliable regional ally, creating opportunities to advance US interests.

Trump’s Middle East approach means he will have to navigate complex Islamist dynamics tests.
