Palestinian diplomat and scholar Hanan Ashrawi joins us from Ramallah in the occupied West Bank and says the unfolding catastrophe in the Gaza Strip, where Israeli bombardment has killed over 7,000 people so far, is equally the fault of the United States. “The U.S. is certainly a partner in crime with Israel,” says Ashrawi, noting that the bombs raining down on Gaza right now are largely produced in and paid for by the U.S. “Israel is guilty of slaughter, of massacres, of ethnic cleansing, of genocide. These are the terms that describe a reality that is happening before your own eyes, Mr. Biden.”
