An analyst with the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, a D.C.-based think tank, says although Israel's attack on Gaza is being followed closely by Washington, it distracts from the larger conflict in Europe- the Russia/Ukraine conflict. President Joe Biden says Washington will stand behind the Jewish state even as some members of Congress seem to be doubling down on U.S.' support for Kyiv. VOA's Ignatius Annor spoke to Shenker on Monday who, however, said there's “iron-clad” support for Israel on Capitol Hill.
