World leaders on Saturday gathered in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, for a conference to discuss ways to de-escalate the conflict in Gaza amid growing fears of a wider Middle East conflict, but with Israel and senior U.S. officials absent, there were no agreement reached after the meeting, two weeks into a conflict that has killed thousands and visited a humanitarian catastrophe on the blockaded Gaza enclave of 2.3 million people.

    Of course. They haven’t stolen northern Gaza yet.

    Peace in Israel would shift attention back to Ukraine. I’m fairly sure the US doesn’t want that. There are 5.8 million Jewish people in America, compared to about 1 million Ukrainians. It’s clear which conflict the US would rather have dominating domestic media.
