“Incandescent“ with Rage: Matt Duss on Voter Anger over Biden Support for Netanyahu & Gaza Assault

Support our work: As the White House steps up its shelling of targets in the Middle East amid regional unrest over Israel’s monthslong assault on Gaza, we discuss the possibility of wider war with Matt Duss, a former foreign policy adviser to Senator Bernie Sanders, now with the Center for International Policy. “The Biden administration’s strategy here is failing,“ says Duss. Voter outrage over its unwavering pro-Israel stance is “incandescent“ and on track to harm the president’s reelection campaign as Democratic Party members pull back on get-out-the-vote efforts, while some may refuse to vote at all. “The issue of Israel-Palestine is not just a foreign policy issue. It is an issue of social and racial justice,“ explains Duss. “This is going to be fixed, if it can be fixed at all, by changing policy and ending support for this massacre.“ Democracy Now! is an independent global news hour that airs on over 1,500 TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.
