After the divisive and controversial storm surrounding an explosion
at a hospital in Gaza, President Joe Biden flew on Wednesday to
meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his Cabinet,
and families touched by the October 7th massacre last week. As
protests and riots spread like wildfire around not just Arab and
Muslim capitals and cities worldwide, but in London, Paris, New
York, and Berlin—the diplomatic stakes could not be higher. A
four-way summit Biden planned to attend with Egypt's President
Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud
Abbas, and King Abdullah II of Jordan was abruptly called off.
However, all was not lost—before returning to the United States,
Biden announced that Israel had agreed to allow humanitarian aid
into Gaza and Egypt acceded to let the convoys across the
Rafah crossing. Gaza has been without electricity, food, water, and
medicine for nearly a week. One Decision speaks to former State
Department official and CIA Middle East Analyst Marie Harf, who was
in office during the intense Israel-Hamas war of 2014.
