It's about fury, humiliation, fear and hate. So soon after the attack that killed hundreds at the al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza, neither side wants to hear the other's story. At least two people have been killed in West Bank protests over Tuesday evening's horror, which came on Day 11 of a war sparked by Hamas's shock attack on Israeli civilians. Israel's ground offensive has not even begun. Is there any way to stop this spiral?
Whoever's responsible, the attack has torpedoed US President Joe Biden’s plan to confer with the Palestinian and Egyptian presidents at a cancelled summit in Jordan. Nonetheless, he maintained his trip to Israel. Why? Was it the right move? The threat of escalation is no longer about just the Middle East.
