Ep. 217: Ceasefire Now

As Israel prepares for a ground invasion of Gaza, we take a look at the calls for a ceasefire in the US and around the world.

Jeremy Appel, writer of The Orchard, joins us for an update on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The US declined to push for restraint or use its aid to Israel as leverage to mitigate the attacks on Gaza. Now, the Health Ministry reports that nearly 3,000 people in Gaza have died and over 12,000 have been wounded. As Israel prepares for a ground invasion, we take a look at the calls for a ceasefire in the US and around the world, how the media has framed protests in solidarity with Palestinians and the reaction from pro-Israel celebs and media along the way.
