Blinken wrote a paper more than a decade ago about "solving" the Palestinian problem and iirc it's basically a map of what is happening now. I think Sullivan is certainly part of the group making decisions but Blinken is doing most of the foreign policy stuff
Whereas this essay co-written by Sullivan is from a more unrecognizable world where "One does not need to be naive about the nature of the regime in Tehran to believe it is no longer wise or necessary for the United States to remain indefinitely just shy of war with Iran."
I was mostly wondering who does the whispering in Biden's ear while Blinken's off rocking in the free world.
I mean at this point it's probably just immediate family members and one or two advisors that have actual access to Biden, could very well be Sullivan... But the funniest option would be that it's Hunter when Blinken is off begging China to do something China isn't going to do
