While Israel continues to prepare for, and delay, a ground operation in the Gaza Strip, the region is buzzing with activity. The United States has increased its military presence in the Middle East; it is now larger than it has been since it formed the coalition to fight ISIS in 2014. At the same time, Iran is activating its militias with redoubled vigor to attack Israeli and American forces, while Hezbollah continues to heat up the Lebanese border.
