US tested as peacemaker amid Israeli escalation in Gaza and Lebanon: Marwan Bishara
Marwan Bishara, Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst, discusses recent meetings between Hochstein, US advisors, and Israeli officials. The initiative is seen as a gesture to assert American involvement amidst ongoing Israeli military actions in Gaza and southern Lebanon, with little expected in concrete outcomes. Discussions may touch on a potential permanent ceasefire on the Lebanon border, though Hezbollah’s consent remains uncertain. Israeli priorities in Lebanon appear split between containment and escalation, influenced significantly by Hezbollah’s actions and preferences. Despite internal political dynamics, Netanyahu’s leadership and policy direction remain entrenched amidst ongoing challenges and regional tensions.
