Barack Obama offered a complex analysis of the conflict between Israel and Gaza

What passes as complex in the minds of the NYT is basically just saying "both sides, but really we gotta keep killing them kids".

The vibe is that it's a ~3,000 word or longer article. ~5,000 words? Anyway - something hefty. In reality it's ~500 words. And the important stuff is in the second half which I quoted. But I assume for SEO reasons that "Great Man Obama Goes on Aides' Podcast" was a SEO loser so they went with something that had seeming gravitas.
