Political analysts are reacting to the Israel-Hamas conflict, with some calling it "Israel's 9/11" and a culmination of 50 years of failed military policies. At least 250 Israelis and 256 Palestinians have been reportedly killed, with thousands injured. The attack is seen as a massive intelligence and defense failure for Israel, with some of Hamas' rockets bypassing the Iron Dome defense system. The conflict is expected to derail a U.S.-brokered negotiation between Israel and Saudi Arabia to establish formal relations, and there are concerns that Iran's involvement could lead to an expansion of the war.
