On Hold Your Fire! @atwoodr talks with @AliVaez and @MairavZ about how the exchange of strikes between #Iran and #Israel is viewed in both countries’ societies. crisisgroup.org/middle-east-no…
On “The Foreign Affairs Interview,” @AliVaez and @MaloneySuzanne discuss where the conflict between Israel and Iran could go next—and how to bring the two sides back from the brink of war. Start listening here: trib.al/cIJ4F6j
The Middle East did not explode on April 13, but it is still at risk of a bigger conflict that would have no winners, says my @CrisisGroup colleague @AliVaez in this timely piece👇🏻

To project power in the Middle East, many major powers have established patron-client relationships with local allies, writes @JoostHiltermann. Amid the war in Gaza, these relationships threaten to drag Washington and Tehran into direct confrontation. trib.al/x3YooTf
Want to gauge the Middle East's danger level? Check @CrisisGroup's Iran-US/Israel Trigger List-now packed with unprecedented flashy red points. 🚨Still, further Israel-Iran escalation is not inevitable. All sides are now in a position to step back and they should do so.…
“Iran and Israel are still rattling their sabers, and Israel may respond to Iran’s attacks with more strikes. The two states could keep trading escalating blows leading to an expanding war that draws in the United States and envelops the whole region.” trib.al/B7kwur1
As the patrons of Israel and Hamas, only the United States and Iran are equipped with the tools needed to end the war in Gaza—and to prevent a wider regional conflict in the Middle East, argues @JoostHiltermann. trib.al/Yl1p1sy
🚨Our crisis alert on #Iran #Israel 🚨 crisisgroup.org/middle-east-no…
I spoke with Isaac Chotiner @NewYorker about intl humanitarian law, US laws governing security assistance, and how Biden’s policy to not condition military assistance to Israel plays a significant role in the interpretation and application of those laws. newyorker.com/news/q-and-a/w…

New from @hrw: Following months of collective punishment, kids in #Gaza are dying from starvation-related complications. Israeli officials ordering or carrying out these actions are committing war crimes. hrw.org/news/2024/04/0…
Very helpful overview from my colleague @Seharrison7 on the laws and policies that govern US security assistance and arms sales and how they are being interpreted in the context of the war in Gaza.

Here is the Arabic translation of my recent piece in @ForeignAffairs for @CrisisGroup on Iran, the US, and the Middle East crisis.
"Der Iran strebt derzeit keine offene Konfrontation mit Israel oder den USA an", sagt @JoostHiltermann. Um die Lage im Nahen Osten zu beruhigen und den Krieg in Gaza zu beenden, müssten die USA den Israeli sagen: "Genug ist genug." handelsblatt.com/100029768.html…

Today, the war in Gaza is threatening to drag the United States and Iran—the chief patrons of Israel and Hamas, respectively—into an all-out regional conflict, writes @JoostHiltermann. How can Washington and Tehran reduce the risk of escalation? trib.al/doTMQFD

It's an extraordinary time to be discussing Palestine in Germany, which has banned speakers critical of Israel from stepping foot on German soil or even appearing at conferences by video. I'll be giving talks in Berlin on May 6 and in Frankfurt on May 7. Details below:
Why I was banned from Germany: In the name of protecting Israel’s security, the German government has sunk to farcical new authoritarian lows. newstatesman.com/diary/2024/04/…

Iran and the United States must use their patron-client relationships with local allies—Hamas and Israel, respectively—to help bring the war in Gaza to a decisive end, writes @JoostHiltermann. trib.al/lqY4NAw

Mosques are at the heart of Islamic life. Muslims spend much time inside mosques during Ramadan as they congregate for communal prayers. Many mosques are renowned for the beauty & artistry of their interiors. For #Ramadan we look inside 20 mosques across the world… A thread…
During the last 10 nights of Ramadan, many Muslims spend more time in Mosques in contemplation & prayer. Mosque ceilings are designed to reflect the magnificence of the universe. For Ramadan, here are spectacular details of 24 Mosque ceilings from around the world… A thread…
This dilemma also applies to staff management within @CrisisGroup @JoostHiltermann 😉
What do the U.S. and Iran have in common? Not much, you'll say. Yet they both face the patron's dilemma: how to nurture clients for your own strategic interests, yet keep them from engaging in self-serving actions that may harm those interests.@CrisisGroup foreignaffairs.com/united-states/…

Want to express my deepest thanks to @adelwritersweek for the most extraordinary literary festival. An honor and a delight to be there alongside some of the world's greatest writers as well as thousands of intelligent, engaged, and empathetic readers. Books are not dead!
A really lovely transition @OpenSociety. A dear friend and mentor handing the baton over to another dear friend. Heartfelt congratulations to Binaifer @NowrojeeOSF from us @CrisisGroup. May it go well with you 🙏🏽 I can't think of a better person to step in after @malloch_brown.

In efforts to defend #UNRWA, I reached out to @dpletka, with whose views I heartily disagree. Despite heartily disagreeing with mine, she graciously offered to post my answers to her questions about UNRWA on her site. @UNLazzarini @CrisisGroup @UNRWA whatthehellisgoingon.substack.com/p/wth-the-othe…
