One Month of War Between Israel and Hamas

Tommy and Ben talk about where the world stands one month after Hamas' attack on Israel, including the declaration from Gaza's health ministry that 10,000 civilians have been killed, Netanyahu's statement about Israel taking "indefinite" security responsibility in Gaza, Biden's push for a pause in fighting, and the successes and fails of American diplomacy thus far. They also discuss growing calls in Congress for a ceasefire, dismal approval ratings for Biden from Muslim voters and anti-war feelings from younger Americans, and reactions to Obama's comments on Israel and Gaza. Then they touch on Zelensky's attempts to keep the war in Ukraine on the world's radar, Pakistan's plan to deport up to 1.7 million Afghan migrants, and Boris Johnson's alleged offer to get injected with COVID-19 on television. Finally, Ben speaks with Jewish American author Nathan Thrall about his new book, "A Day in the Life of Abed Salama: Anatomy of a Jerusalem Tragedy", which documents the realities of life for Palestinians in the West Bank.
