About this episode

As Joe Biden arrived in Israel today, anger boiled over across the region after a Gaza hospital was hit last night. Israel and the United States say it was a failed rocket launch by Palestinian militants, but Palestinian officials immediately blamed Israel, prompting street protests from Lebanon to Tunisia and Arab leaders to cancel face-to-face meetings with Biden. Martin Griffiths is Emergency Relief Coordinator for the United Nations and joins Christiane from Cairo, where he has been meeting with Egyptian officials.  Also on today's show: Marwan Muasher; Former Foreign Minister of Jordan / Vice President for Studies, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace; Richard Haass, Emeritus President, Council of the Foreign Relations / Former US State Department diplomat; Rashid Khalidi, Edward Said Professor of Modern Arab Studies, Columbia University / Author, “The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine”  To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
