Netanyahu threatening war to gain votes, his era may be over – Palestinian UN ambassador (E791)

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Palestinian Ambassador to the UN Riyad H. Mansour about Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu’s latest threat to illegally annex parts of the West Bank and his threat to start a war in Gaza. Mansour looks at the motivations for these escalations, attributing them to Netanyahu’s election campaign and blames the US for allowing this further shift in Israeli policy. Next we speak to David Nevin, the lawyer for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged “principle architect of the 9/11 attacks,” on the likelihood of Mohammed’s prosecution after years of CIA torture and human rights abuses at Guantanamo Bay, arguing that US practices may have made his prosecution more difficult.
