Weaponizing trauma to inflict more trauma is Israel's forte. Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine, No Logo, and the new book Doppelganger, joins Francesca to discuss the all out assault on the people of Gaza in retaliation for Hamas' brazen attack. How does the pain of the Holocaust used to justify the murder of 3,500 children, and destruction that equals that of a nuclear bomb. They talk about the failure of Israel's high tech surveillance ethno-nationalist state, and the ways that Joe Biden's unconditional support for Israel as being the only safe place for Jews is a chilling statement. How do we have to move from protecting "our people" to "all people"? Plus, how has the far right, anti-establishment grift-o-sphere bled into the left, and will people stop confusing Naomi Klein with Naomi Wolf!
