In a discussion about the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, Matt Duss of the Center for International Policy argues that the US-Israeli approach to delivering aid could enable ethnic cleansing under the guise of war strategies like starvation. He indicates that while President Trump has visited the Middle East, shifting US foreign policy regarding Yemen, Iran, and Syria, the Democratic Party has left the antiwar and diplomatic approach open for him. This underscores the growing need for a peace-focused agenda in US politics, especially concerning Israel-Palestine relations.
Duss argues that the US endorsement of Israel's humanitarian aid strategy allows for ethnic cleansing in Gaza, amidst the use of starvation for wartime leverage.
Duss suggests that Trump's Middle East policy marks a significant shift and poses a challenge for Democrats who have vacated the antiwar space.
