After three months of what President Biden called an indiscriminate bombardment, the future of Gaza remains a point of disagreement between Israel and the U.S. President Biden wants to see Gaza under a revitalized Palestinian Authority as a step toward a two-state solution, an idea opposed by the fragile Israeli government. Can an independent Palestinian state be born out of the rubble and loss of life?
