Mondoweiss (lots of interesting commentary and additional links).
Tony Karon (smart and angry background by a TIME correspondent).
Nir Rosen (dissecting the power politics that underpins the conflict).
Daniel Levy (especially his piece on why Americans should care about what is happening in Gaza).
Glenn Greenwald (on the gap between American public opinion and the policy of the U.S. government).
Reading the Financial Times, BBC News, and Ha’aretz is also a useful antidote to the coverage we’ve been getting over here.
