* As US proxy war in Ukraine continues to tip in Russia's favor, armed conflict
has broken out between Palestinian-based Hamas militants and Israeli forces;
* Israeli-Palestinian tensions stem from the Israeli government's decades-long
occupation of Palestinian territory in violation of international law and laid
out specifically in UN resolutions;
* Both Hamas and Israeli forces are currently targeting both military targets
and civilians;
* Israel has for decades served the purpose of a foothold for first British then
American hegemony in the Middle East;
* Hamas has a problematic background that complicates Palestine's ability to
resolve hostilities between it and Israel;
* Hamas has previously served as a proxy along with Israel in the US proxy war
against Syria;
* Israel is requesting additional military aid from a depleted United States,
limiting its ability to escalate vs. Hamas and within the wider region;
