“Any discussion about the necessity of continuing military assistance to Ukraine must invariably be based on the sole (catastrophic) alternative - a 'frozen conflict'. This 'frozen' state is not in some abstract realm of 'political expediency,' but against the backdrop of a large-scale massacre of civilians, a major war, an enormous number of unequivocal war crimes and crimes against humanity … and the persisting insane desire of the Russian Federation to obliterate Ukraine's agency.”

“I want to be clear: without congressional action, by the end of the year we will run out of resources to procure more weapons and equipment for Ukraine and to provide equipment from US military stocks. There is no magical pot of funding available to meet this moment. We are out of money - and nearly out of time. Cutting funding would kneecap Ukraine, putting its forces on the defensive and possibly on the retreat.”

“This comes as hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have fled their homes and have been displaced. While the Israelis are chalking up battle plans for the southern part of the Gaza Strip, the reality is that there is no safe place in Gaza at the end of day 58 of this war. It is worth noting that the Israeli military has not shown huge military achievements or accomplishments, but rather what we have seen is a dire humanitarian catastrophe that has unfolded inside of the Gaza Strip.”

“In the event that Israel cannot take Hamas out, the fissure between the two Palestinian political groups will deepen. Hamas would remain standing, a valiant hero for Palestinians for fighting Israel, and the PA [Palestinian Authority] would appear weak, shamed for cooperating with Israel over the years. That would kick off a vicious cycle of a seemingly weak PA inspiring more settler activity in the West Bank, which would erode the group's control of the territory more and more. This could be the beginning of the end of the PA.”

“It's unlikely to happen, given the messages coming from the Israeli side. I also think a ceasefire is not the same as putting out the fire to the original spark - the original point of conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. If they are just extending the truce for a few days, and resuming the carnage, it doesn't seem like an effective way to move forward. It's not moving forward at all.”

“Israel has no good options after its bad war ends. This may be its last chance to pull away from the brink, stop the war, embrace US President Joe Biden's vision of a two-state solution, impractical as it is today, and accept America's red lines for Gaza: no to reoccupation, no to ethnic cleansing and no to shrinking its territories. But Netanyahu, along with his fanatic coalition, who've long taken America for granted, have once again ignored - read rejected - America's advice to the detriment of both sides.”

“The extensive Israeli bombardment of Gaza, including the use of high-impact explosive weapons in densely populated areas ... is clearly having a devastating humanitarian and human rights impact. The attacks must be investigated ... We have very serious concerns that these amount to disproportionate attacks in breach of international humanitarian law. Any use by Palestinian armed groups of civilians and civilian objects to shield themselves from attack is in contravention of the laws of war. But such conduct by Palestinian armed groups does not absolve Israel of its obligation to ensure that civilians are spared.”

“The US side tried to convince Turkish officials to put more pressure on Hamas and make it release the captives. But the Turkish position was very clear on this matter. They said that the prisoner release should be mutual, where Hamas releases captives and Israel releases Palestinian prisoners. Turkey also asked for an unconditional ceasefire and said there should be an international mechanism to observe the ceasefire, which Ankara would be the guarantor for. But we haven't heard anything about a ceasefire from Blinken. He has been using the phrase humanitarian pause and the Turkish side has told him that this is not enough.”

“The Chinese leadership is divided into two camps regarding the country's overall strategy. A Chinese State Council-based group is advocating economic development, while a national security group is pushing for an aggressive stance on the world stage. Although the national security wing holds sway over policymaking, the Chinese government would probably act cautiously in the immediate future. Addressing economic problems stemming from declining foreign investments, local government debt, rising youth unemployment and weak domestic demand would likely absorb Beijing's attention. China's economy could face devastating consequences if Beijing pursues policies that could scare away foreign investors and businesspeople, including from Taiwan.”

“The conflict had reached a transitional phase where both sides hold the initiative in different parts of the front. Overall, Ukraine's offensive in the south has either culminated or is about to. My sense is that the artillery advantage that Ukraine had for much of its offensive is now going to recede, and that Ukraine's ammunition availability is going to be constrained. Russia will also be forced to conserve ammunition, but will now increasingly benefit from the influx of supply coming from North Korea.”

They have lost their credibility and really, there is no remedy for them as they cannot justify Israel's attack.

The current, geographically limited “war” should thus not turn into a wider regional conflagration, a message that will have been made clear to all countries through diplomatic channels and intermediaries who have contacts with both sides.”

“From a risk perspective, Biden is now tied to whatever the Israelis decide to do in Gaza. Biden is wagering that consoling, negotiating with and aiding Israel give him the most influence shaping their actions.”

“It doesn't matter if there's a commission of inquiry or not, or whether or not he [Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu] admits fault. All that matters is what 'middle Israelis' think - which is that this is a fiasco and that the prime minister is responsible. He will go, and his entire establishment along with him.”

“Russia and China, like most countries of the world, share the desire for equal, mutually beneficial cooperation in order to achieve universal sustainable and long-term economic progress and social well-being, while respecting the diversity of civilization and the right of each State to its own development model. As for the Northern Sea Route, Russia does not just offer its partners to actively use its transit potential, I will say more: we invite interested states to participate directly in its development, and we are ready to provide reliable ice breaker navigation, communication and supply. Starting next year, navigation for ice-class cargo ships along the entire length of the Northern Sea Route will become year-round.”

“There are thousands - if not tens of thousands - of people who have flocked to the hospital. They are sleeping on the ground, in the corridors, between patients' beds. People are absolutely terrified. They think this is the safest place and everything around them confirms that. Unless there is respite there is going to be a public health catastrophe at the hospital.”

“Israel's primary goal for a ground invasion would be to perform a very public demonstration of power and might that [PM Benjamin] Netanyahu might be able to present to an Israeli public that is increasingly calling for his resignation. [Netanyahu is] very keen that before there can be any de-escalation, the public perception is restored to one that views Israel as this overwhelming power and the Palestinians as a weak power.”

“The eradication of Hamas is not just a lofty goal - but nearly impossible. [It's] a complete impossibility because it's not like you can distinguish fighters from civilians. Of course, Israeli secret services have identified many of them. But in a situation where you're fighting, it's very difficult.”

“Today the rage of Al Aqsa, the rage of our people and nation is exploding. Our mujahedeen (fighters), today is your day to make this criminal understand that his time has ended. Every day the occupation storm our villages, towns and cities in the West Bank and raid houses, kill, injure, destroy and detain. At the same time, it confiscates thousands of acres of our land, uproots our people from their houses to build settlements while its criminal siege continues on Gaza. In light of the orgy of occupation and its denial of international laws and resolutions, and in light of American and western support and international silence, we've decided to put an end to all this.”

“You see the babies, the mothers, the fathers, in their bedrooms, in their protection rooms and how the terrorist kills them. It's not a war, it's not a battlefield. It's a massacre. It's something that we used to imagine from our grandfathers, grandmothers in the pogrom in Europe and other places.”
