Summary

Earlier in October the Grayzone reporter Jeremy Loffredo traveled to Israel to report on the ongoing conflict between Israel and its neighbors in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon and Iran. In response to his reporting, Israeli authorities arrested Loffredo and placed him in solitary confinement for three days, during which he was subjected to grueling interrogation.

Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss talk to Loffredo about his harrowing experience and just why Israel is so threatened by his reporting, as well as interviews he conducted with Israelis at the Gaza border denying aid trucks access to the starving Palestinian people.

Plus a segment on a recent Trump ad targeting older Jewish voters playing on their fear of Palestinians.
