Tariq Ali on Trump's Embrace of Ethnic Cleansing in Gaza & Global Rise of the Far Right
Acclaimed scholar and activist Tariq Ali joins us for a wide-ranging conversation. In Part 1, he responds to Trump's support of the ethnic cleansing of Gaza, the U.S.'s capitulation to Israeli aggression in the Middle East and the rise in right-wing authoritarianism around the world. Ali says Donald Trump is "the most right-wing president in recent years" and exposes "in public what his predecessors used to say in private."
