Arab states want Israel to finish Hamas ... and so should the US

“Jerusalem Minute” with guest Malcolm Hoenlein, Ep. 5

Tension is growing between the United States and Israel about the timeline of the war in Gaza and the push for a two-state outcome. Are the two allies heading for a collision? Is U.S. President Joe Biden willing to have Israel fight but not win? What role can the American Jewish community play during a time of rising antisemitism and wavering support for Israel?
