| 0:00.0 | Hi, this is Jen Rubin, and this is Jen Rubin's Green Room. It's only Tuesday, and it seems like we've already had a week or so of news. Let's start with a tragedy in Israel. The Israelis accidentally |
| 0:23.4 | set off a strike that killed seven of Jose Andrus's World Central Kitchen employees. These people, |
| 0:35.2 | I think, are angels, and most people feel the same way. |
| 0:38.3 | It is an enormous tragedy, and of course Israel Bellar's responsibility. |
| 0:44.3 | Bibi Net Nahu got out there and said, well, this is war, this happens. |
| 0:49.3 | This is why you need to curtail war. |
| 0:52.3 | This is why you need to bring it to a close because innocence |

| 1:38.6 | invasion to end Hamas once and for all, then his right-wing coalition sticks together. He makes the Americans |
| 1:46.3 | upset, which in turn draws his coalition even closer, and he stays in power. We've got to put an |
| 1:53.7 | end to this. We've got to put our foot down. We have to demand not simply an Israeli investigation, |
| 1:59.3 | but an international investigation. |
| 2:01.8 | And we have to level with them. |
| 2:03.4 | At some point, the war becomes disproportionate |
| 2:08.0 | to the harm they are doing as measured against the security |
| 2:11.7 | they are gaining. |
| 2:13.2 | That's when you get into the realm of war crimes, |
