Worsening war in The Middle East: The people & politics | The Real Story

Показать описание

Public frustration is building from the U.S. to Israel, the war is expanding quickly and the humanitarian crisis is at an all time worst in Gaza and the greater region. Host Emma Wulfhorst checks in with Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, a ranking member on the House Appropriations Committee, after her recent bipartisan Middle East trip and meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Also, a one-on-one conversation with former American diplomat Hala Rharrit. She resigned over the Biden-Harris Administration's policy in Gaza calling it "illegal, inhumane and failed." She also outlines the international and domestic laws being broken, specifically with appropriations and weapon transfers, along with how she sees the U.S. policy actually making Israel and the entire region less safe. More of Rharrit's insight on how the government is ignoring evidence of war crimes and other Connecticut lawmakers' feelings about further funding. Plus, how the tragically record civilian loss, famine and refugee crisis in Palestine, impacted the election in Connecticut and nationwide.
