The Many Impacts of The Gaza War with Stefanie Ali, Senior Director, Rice, Hadley, Gates and Manuel LLC

The 966

On the ground the latest Gaza war has caused untold human carnage and massive damage to buildings and infrastructure. It has also severely damaged the reputation of the United States in the region as well as negatively impacted US company brands. Stefanie Hausheer Ali, senior director at international affairs consulting firm Rice, Hadley, Gates & Manuel LLC and Atlantic Council nonresident fellow joins host Richard Wilson on The 966 for a deeply informative Episode #132 in which she discusses five impacts of the Gaza war to watch.

1. The reputation of the United States and US company brands have taken a major hit in the region.
2. Boycotts of certain US brands are occurring and will continue to flare up periodically.
3. Israel’s ability to bring in foreign direct investment may be diminished.
4. Arab states are pulling away publicly from the United States in some ways, but still desire close ties.
5. The potential for destabilizing regional protests and lone-wolf attacks has increased.
