Fragile Environment and Potential Escalation
This chapter discusses the potential implications of President Biden's decision to notify Congress within 48 hours under the War Power Resolutions Act of 1973, the recent order of 2000 more US troops to be ready for deployment, and the arrival of the US Central Command commander in Israel for high-level meetings. It highlights the strategic interests of the US in Israel, the risk of tough talk escalating tensions, and the lack of interest among most Americans in a military conflict over Palestine.
