Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu are committing war crime after war crime after war crime.

And the question is why. And so I have an expert on to educate all of us and give us some insight.

Let's welcome Dr. Mark Lamont Hill. He has a PhD from Penn casual and as an anthropologist

and scholar of the Middle East and Palestine. He's also an expert on the political relationship between Israel and the United States.

And according to his t-shirt today, he's also extra black.

That's right. Every day.

Welcome.

Good to see you. Thank you for having me.

Good to see you too. So what I am seeing are war crimes. I am seeing schools bombed. I'm seeing

people breathe in toxic rain. I'm seeing hospitals bombed. And this seems to be a feature,

not a bug, of IDF military operations. Please

enlighten me on what we're all seeing here. Well, first, I'm glad you pointed out the feature

piece of it, because that's exactly what's happening. It's happening in Iran right now. It happened

in Gaza. It happens in the West Bank, though, in a slightly different way.

But ultimately, there is a very particular approach that the Israeli army takes to military action.

And it's one of overkill. You know, for years, in Gaza, for example, what we saw was the IDF engaging in what they called, their words, not mine, mowing the lawn, which referred to periodic military operations and military strikes that would deplete the population slightly, but also instill a certain kind of fear in the population about what resistance would look like.

After October 7th of 2023, we saw something much bigger,

something devastating.

We saw an actual genocide.

And we saw the destruction of hospitals, schools,

cemeteries, anything that makes a society, a society,

any semblance of civil society destroyed.
