Democracy Now! speaks with Mehdi Hasan, editor-in-chief and CEO of Zeteo, about Israel’s recent move to expand settlements in the West Bank in an effort to erase the possibility of a Palestinian state. “They are doing everything in their power to make sure that a two-state solution can never happen,” says Hasan.

Hasan also comments on the deadly U.S. attack on a boat off the coast of Venezuela. “There’s no scenario in which you can say it was an imminent threat to the U.S.,” he says.
