Will Democrats move beyond rhetoric on Israel’s illegal settlements? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A shift is taking place in Washington. Senate Democrats are moving to sanction individuals and entities involved in Israel’s E1 settlement project, one of the most consequential efforts to reshape the occupied West Bank. The timing is significant. Reports that the project may have been put on hold raise the question of whether the pause represents a substantive policy change or merely a tactical delay. Meanwhile, the Senate is preparing to leave Washington this week, narrowing the immediate wind
Israel takes its war on Palestine into the AI age (opens the original)

Even more striking, 47 percent said they believe the prime minister ha
America’s decades-old bipartisan consensus on Israel has been shattered (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last week, more than 100 House Democrats voted to cut off military aid to Israel. Though the amendment failed because some Democrats and almost all Republicans voted against it, it exposed something far more significant than the legislative outcome: The bipartisan consensus that shielded Israel from meaningful congressional scrutiny for generations is beginning to fracture.
