Why America failed in Gaza | Matt Duss, ex-Bernie Sanders adviser | Real Talk
“I now rage that my government is behaving the way it’s behaving.”
As Israel’s war on Gaza, and now Lebanon, continues with no end in sight, we’re delving into why America’s Gaza policy failed.
Today on Real Talk, we’re joined by Matt Duss, former foreign policy adviser to Bernie Sanders and the executive vice president at the Center for International Policy.
We discuss how President Joe Biden’s red lines in Gaza were repeatedly crossed by Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu, rising voter anger toward Democrats and what all this means for Kamala Harris in the upcoming US elections.
Real Talk is a Middle East Eye interview show hosted by Mohamed Hashem that delves into the stories and experiences of a diverse range of guests.
