Fmr. US Ambassador to Israel & Egypt Daniel Kurtzer

As crises collide in the Middle East, how should the Biden administration respond to the killing of the first American service members in that region since October 7? How can the United States also convince Israel to ensure fewer civilians are killed in Gaza, where Palestinian health authorities now say more than 26,000 are dead, with 200 killed in the last 24 hours alone? Attempting to answer those questions and others is Daniel Kurtzer, who was US Ambassador to Cairo under the Clinton administration and to Tel Aviv for George W. Bush. He joins the show from Washington.  Also on today's show: Kang Kyung-wha, Incoming President and CEO, Asia Society; Monica Yunus, Daughter of Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus; Michael Kirk, Director, Frontline's "Democracy on Trial"  Learn more about your ad choices.
