Magazine scrubs sections of Jake Sullivan’s essay praising Biden’s performance in the Middle East

National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan lauded President Biden’s “disciplined approach” to foreign policy that “reduces the risk of new Middle Eastern conflict” in sections of a magazine essay — which were helpfully edited out of the online version.
Sullivan’s faulty analysis, however, remains in the print version of his Foreign Affairs magazine article, which went to press five days before Hamas terrorists stormed Israel on Oct. 7, killing over a thousand people.
“Before this article was posted online, a passage in it about the Middle East was updated to address Hamas’s attack on Israel, which occurred after the print version of the article went to press,” an editor’s note at the bottom of the online version of Sullivan’s piece reads.
There are several outdated claims in the print version of Sullivan’s 29-page essay that the Biden administration official was allowed to revise before it was posted online.
Foreign Affairs attached a PDF version of Sullivan’s original writing at the end of its editor’s note.
