The US is in talks with its Middle East allies about possible outcomes of the Israel-Gaza war but is not prioritizing a ceasefire, a Western military official laid bare. “America wants to keep its pro-Iranian foes from widening the conflict and help its Arab Levant allies deal with any domestic repercussions of Israel’s attacks on Gaza,” said the official. “The United States has little control at this stage on what the Israelis are doing to Gaza,” he added.
