Summary
- President Biden’s efforts to end the conflict between Israel and Hamas have not been successful despite multiple visits, conversations, and diplomatic engagements.
- Historical attempts by various American administrations to broker peace in the Middle East have also failed.
- Structural and political factors make achieving lasting peace challenging, with both Israel and Hamas showing no signs of backing down.
- While some progress has been made in terms of casualties, hostages, aid delivery, and averting a regional war, the underlying issues persist.
