Javed Ali, Ford School professor, talked with Exame about US involvement in the conflicts in Israel. Ali said, "We are not seeing, from the US side, a response like the one we saw after 9/11, with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. This administration does not want to involve the US in the region in this way," he said neither did the Trump administration in the past.
