University of Maryland professor Shibley Telhami says US President Joe Biden is making his decisions on Palestine and Israel “based on personal beliefs, personal preferences, personal emotions,” and “not necessarily driven by a considered assessment of American interests at stake”. Telhami tells host Steve Clemons that Biden’s “inability to show empathy” for the Palestinians is shocking, and that the president’s recent warnings to Israel were driven in part by his calculations for next year’s election. All the talk about plans for “the day after” the war are distractions from the real-time death and destruction in Gaza, Telhami says.

The Israel-Gaza war has been raging for more than a month, killing over 10,500 civilians in Gaza, half of them children. Israel says it is acting in legitimate self-defence and is rooting out Hamas. Meanwhile, criticism over the deadly Israeli air strikes is mounting, with rights groups and some countries repeatedly calling for a ceasefire. What are the limits to the principle of self-defence? What role can the United States and the international community play? On UpFront, Marc Lamont Hill challenges David Friedman, former US ambassador to Israel under President Donald Trump, on whether Israel is respecting international law.
