Senator Chuck Schumer's Address on Israeli-Palestinian Peace and Two-State Solution

Published | Video Starts at 23:53

He has prevented the transfer of funds to the Palestinian Authority and he has opposed the provision of any humanitarian assistance to Gaza, going so far as to stop agreed upon shipments of flour. Minister Ben GVIR is no better. When he was a young man, he was barred from the Israeli military service for his extremist views. Last year, in a move only intended to antagonize the Muslim population, he visited the Temple Mount with his supporters as a brazen show of force towards Palestinians. (23:53–24:02)
