As far as opinion pages go, The Hill’s might be the best. The diversity of opinion and depth of thought is impressive to say the least. Sometimes when searching for links, I force myself not to look at The Hill because I don’t want to feature its columns five days in a row. Other times, it’s not worth the struggle. This is one of those times.

Former DoD official Dov S. Zakheim has written a terrific piece on President Biden’s efforts in the Middle East since the Hamas attacks. Based on his past columns, some of which we’ve featured, it’s safe to say Zakheim is no great booster of the president. And yet he feels compelled to give credit where he believes credit is due. It’s an admirable sentiment, one we could use more of. Thankfully, The Hill is here to provide it.
