‘America’s monster’

“Israel’s isolation grows in Europe,” The Washington Post says on Thursday’s front page, as “Norway, Spain, Ireland move to recognize Palestinian state,” The Wall Street Journal adds. For American Jews, “discussion of Gaza war” entails walking a fine “line between free speech and hurtful bias,” the Los Angeles Times says. In Gaza, the Post says, aid groups “see their humanitarian gains eroding” amid a combination of scarce food and medicine deliveries and repeated Israeli attacks. The New York Times turns back to the U.S. war in Afghanistan, specifically its alliance with Abdul Raziq, “America’s monster” in Kandahar.
