William Lawrence, a professor of international relations at the American University, says the US commander who oversaw the Battle of Mosul to defeat the armed group ISIL (ISIS) was sent to advise Israel’s military on how to conduct the Gaza campaign without the mass killing of civilians.

Israel’s leadership, however, “didn’t take that strategy to heart”.

“While they do have mechanisms to avoid killing civilians, they didn’t implement their own policies either. There’s a huge disagreement on strategy now,” he told Al Jazeera.

He noted the United States has given Israel “carte blanche up till now”, and continues to ship light weapons to its military during the ongoing campaign in Gaza.

“From a Palestinian perspective, it’s absolutely clear the US is doing next to nothing to save them from the onslaught of the Israeli forces,” said Lawrence.
