Former US ambassador to Israel: ‘We are heading for a crisis’

“The Quad,” Ep. 19

This week “The Quad” interviews former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman about U.S./Israel relations in light of the Hamas/Israel war. Recent weeks have seen Sen. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer call to replace the current Israeli government, U.S. President Biden being caught on a hot mic criticizing Netanyahu and saying he is hurting more than he is helping Israel; Vice President Kamala Harris distinguishing between the Israeli government and the Israeli people, and U.S. Secretary of State Blinken repeatedly tell Israel that it must do more to give humanitarian aid to Gaza.

Are the two allies heading for a crisis? What does this mean for Israel’s security? Is public criticism of Israel helping bring peace between the two sides?

“The Quad” discusses whether or not Biden has really been supportive of Israel and where this is leading in the current war. And, of course, scumbags and heroes of the week.
