☆ Unconditional aid to Israel is no longer the bipartisan certainty it once was as US senators begin to question Israel's campaign in Gaza and the West Bank

The United States has provided Israel with military and economic aid since its founding 75 years ago. But it seems even the United States might have a breaking point. An amendment from Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia, meanwhile, would prevent Biden from transferring weapons to Israel without congressional support. AdvertisementNet favorability for Israel only dropped 2.2 percentage points in the United States, but US support for Israel is taking a toll on global perceptions of the United States. In Egypt, for instance, the United States "went from having a positive favorability of 41.1 to a negative favorability of -14.9 from September to December," Time wrote.

A former IDF intelligence chief harshly criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Retired Maj. Gen. Amos Malka told an Israeli radio station that Netanyahu only looks out for himself. Netanyahu "is not focused on the management of the fighting, but on survival," Malka said. AdvertisementAdvertisementA 30-year veteran of the Israel Defense Forces — and former head of the country's military intelligence unit — accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of caring more about his own political "survival" than the actual war he's waging in Gaza. If he has time to worry about that, Malka charged, "I can see that he is not focused on managing the war, but on survival."

He explains how his job, and the Israeli tech ecosystem, has been altered by the Israel-Hamas war. We all are going to mourn and I'm going to mourn, but I don't know that now is the time for me to mourn. Today, the entire Israeli tech ecosystem is mobilizing to help soldiers and families. AdvertisementAdvertisementOf course, much of the Israeli tech ecosystem has been called up to reserve duty, and that presents a challenge. These are challenging times, and I see everyone in the Israeli tech ecosystem doing all we can.
