US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is back in Israel today, meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in an ongoing diplomatic push to prevent fighting in Gaza from escalating across the region. President Biden says that while “taking out” Hamas extremists is necessary, a prolonged occupation of Gaza would be a “big mistake.” Ibrahim Dahman is a journalist inside Gaza, who had to evacuate his own home in the face of Israeli airstrikes. He has this first-person account of what life is like in Gaza right now.
Also on today's show: Lynn Hastings, UN Resident Coordinator for the Occupied Palestinian Territory; Yair Lapid, Former Prime Minister of Israel; Mustafa Barghouti, President, Palestinian National Initiative; Susan Glasser, Staff writer, The New Yorker
