Description
The video features podcaster Katie Halper talking to guest host Russell Dobular about the viral exchange between Rep. Ro Khanna and journalist Jeremy Scahill in which Scahill pressed Khanna on a "double standard" regarding the right to armed resistance under occupation. Khanna repeatedly refused to state that Palestinians had a right to attack Israeli soldiers on October 7th—calling the attack "terrorism"—while acknowledging Israel had a right to pursue Hamas fighters.
Halper and the hosts argue that international humanitarian law actually recognizes the legitimacy of armed struggle against occupying forces, and that Khanna's position reflects political calculation rather than principle. They also note that while Khanna has been more critical of Israel than most Democrats, his refusal to fully embrace Palestinian rights undermines his anti-war credibility.
