Jeremy Scahill, Murtaza Hussain, and Yousef Munayyer discuss the institutional support for war against Palestine and its broader regional, political implications.
When a hospital in the Gaza Strip blew up on Tuesday night, U.S. and international news media uncritically reported Hamas terrorists' claims of an Israeli massacre. The White House and Israel have since refuted that account, citing imagery, intercepts, and open-source information.
