Family of Slain Palestinian American Journalist Shireen Abu Akleh to Biden: Hold Israel Accountable
President Biden will be visiting the Palestinian territories and meeting President Mahmoud Abbas on Friday. Ahead of Biden's trip, the family of Shireen Abu Akleh demanded Biden call out Israel over her killing while covering a raid on the Jenin refugee camp in the West Bank. On Wednesday, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken invited Shireen Abu Akleh's family to visit the United States. We will continue to call for justice, and we will continue to call on the U.S to carry out a transparent investigation by an independent body," says Shireen Abu Akleh's niece, Lina Abu Akleh. In addition, we continue to call on the U.N. and the ICC to carry out an investigation and hold Israel accountable and put an end to this grotesque impunity that Israel continues to enjoy." We speak with Rashid Khalidi, Palestinian American professor of modern Arab studies at Columbia University.
