If you're interested in the Abraham Accords, check out my book! It examines why and how the UAE and Bahrain entered into these agreements, the role of the Trump administration, and what they mean for the Middle East after Oct 7th and beyond @columbiaup.bsky.social

Today, 12 states from the Hague Group announced coordinated measures to "restrain Israel and defend international law" including blocking arms transfers and public divestment. An important step, even though some larger members like China and Brazil have not committed to these measures.

The Jerusalem Post wants Trump to bomb Iran, launch cyber attacks against it, encircle it, bomb it further if it reacts, and then finally divide it into smaller parts- the latter in cooperation with other Middle Eastern states.
This is Israel's most widely-read English newspaper.

My book on the Abraham Accords is out! I explore the covert ties between Israel and several Gulf States in the lead up to the Accords, how and why these agreements were negotiated, and what they mean for the region including in the wake of Gaza.
Grateful to my editors

No traction at all except from the International Court of Justice, major human rights organizations, and UN experts

Incredible incoherence from the state department report on Israel. While admitting that Israel materially restricted the delivery of aid to Gaza, it adds that these actions do not meet its definition of restricting the delivery of aid
