What will Biden’s presidency mean for Palestine? (UNRWA Gaza director) E969

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to UNRWA Director in Gaza Matthias Schmale. He discusses what the Joe Biden presidency will mean for Palestine and its illegal occupation by Israel, whether US funding for the UNRWA will return, accusations of anti-Semitism and Israeli allegations that the UNRWA ‘perpetuates refugees,’ recent Israeli airstrikes and land incursion into Gaza, and much more! Finally, we speak to Retired Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer about what Joe Biden’s foreign policy is likely to look like. He discusses Biden’s picks for top positions such as Antony Blinken and Avril Haines, Donald Trump’s caution with deploying troops, and why the Biden administration may not share the same hesitancy, why the it likely hasn’t learned from the Libyan war or the war in Syria, and much more!
