Tough talk on Gaza: Rick Sanchez one-on-one with former Netanyahu adviser

In this episode of RT’s ‘Sanchez Effect’, Rick challenges some of Israel’s key talking points on the war in Gaza. Benjamin Netanyahu’s former spokesperson, Aviv Bushinsky, joins him to confirm or deny some of the public’s most divisive assumptions. He points the finger at Hamas for the enclave’s rising death toll and admits that IDF soldiers would rather be sipping cocktails halfway across the globe than fighting this war. Aviv insists that Palestinian radicals have been sabotaging peace efforts for decades, pushing the possibility of a two-state solution further and further away. The frank conversation sees our guest reveal he holds no sympathies for his former boss, but it’s up to the Israeli people to decide his fate as prime minister in the upcoming elections.
