After a year of war and over 42,000 Palestinians killed, Israel is not any safer. The hostages haven’t returned and there’s no ceasefire. The war has now expanded to Lebanon and threatens to ignite a regional conflict with Iran. Prime Minister Netanyahu continues to cross every single one of President Biden’s red lines.
Even as Biden secretly fumes and refers to Bibi as “a bad fucking guy” according to Bob Woodward’s latest book, he nonetheless enables a war criminal who has assembled the most extremist, genocidal government in Israel’s history.
Despite the protests of thousands of Democratic voters and The Uncommitted Movement, The Biden Administration refuses to punish Bibi and instead keeps sending weapons, arms and offers diplomatic support ahead of a 2024 election which could very well decide the fate of U.S. democracy. Yet, there is still an off-ramp for Biden in his final few months as President.
How can President Biden pivot and bring about some form of peace in Israel and Palestine? How should Kamala Harris break from Biden’s failed policy and ensure a pathway towards security for Israelis and Palestinians? How can Democrats win over so many disaffected voters who are sitting out in essential swing states due to their pain and rage over what they consider to be Israel’s genocide subsidized by US taxpayer dollars and complicity?
I unpack all of this in an exclusive sit down with journalist, author, and ZETEO News founder Mehdi Hasan. Yes, he might piss off some Biden loyalists and Democrats with uncomfortable truths, but it’s information that Kamala Harris’s campaign needs to hear to ensure victory in 2024 and how jettisoning Biden’s tainted policy, which has unleashed destruction and war in Israel and Palestine, could finally pave the way to peace.
