I was asked about Gaza and the ceasefire. Useful & informative discussion with my co panelists
On Lawfare Daily, @sranderson.bsky.social, @natansachs.bsky.social, Dan Byman, Joel Braunold, and Dr. @danaelkurd.bsky.social discussed the terms of the Israel-Gaza ceasefire, who deserves credit, what factors may contribute to its success or failure, and where it is likely to lead.

It's now past 4 am in Lebanon, the time that the ceasefire is scheduled to go into effect.

A ceasefire is something we needed yesterday.

Thinking of the civilians displaced, injured, and subject to psychological terror and praying that this holds for them.

Israeli forces "deliberately targeted" one of the only journalists left in north Gaza on Tuesday in a seeming double tap strike, after the military publicly threatened the reporter with assassination in October.

Just published: our correspondence in The Lancet in support of UNRWA.

Read here: www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

It should be easy for all health providers, scholars, & advocates to urgently speak out in support of UNRWA as the humanitarian conditions in Gaza are more dire than ever.

🧵 With all the movement over to this app, I wanted to take a minute to share a few of my (and my amazing co-authors) most recent (from 2024) publications on #Palestine, some peer-reviewed articles (all open access) and some shorter policy briefs and pieces for popular media.

Great to see you again Dana! You probably don't remember, but you emailed me your gateway to dissent article over 2 years ago, eternally grateful that you reached out to me and appreciate all the work you do :)
Wow so many new people following. Maybe I need a real intro:

Hi I'm from Jerusalem & work on Palestine, authoritarianism, and US intervention in the Arab world. I'm a professor and a senior nonresident fellow at the Arab Center Washington.

I'll link a few essays, podcasts, & presentations below
