Mustafa Barghouti: Israel's Siege & Bombing of Gaza Are War Crimes. Is Ethnic Cleansing Next?

As Israel prepares to launch a ground invasion of the Gaza Strip, we continue our coverage of escalating conflict in the Middle East. We're joined from Ramallah by Mustafa Barghouti, a Palestinian physician, activist and politician who serves as general secretary of the Palestinian National Initiative, also known as al-Mubadara, and is a member of the Palestine Liberation Organization Central Council. I don't want any Palestinian or Israeli civilian to be killed," says Barghouti, who argues that a ground operation in Gaza would constitute a campaign of ethnic cleansing, and condemns Israeli occupation and settlement under far-right Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as having destroyed any prospective for a two-state solution." Barghouti also discusses President Biden's abnegation of responsibility toward Palestinian Americans, Egypt's role in the conflict and the relationship within Palestine between the totally marginalized" Palestinian Authority and groups like Hamas.
