EXCERPT:
JAYAPAL: “Israel has stopped the fuel from coming in and being delivered by trusted partners. And, Kristen, I just think we have to recognize that this is a double standard. The United States rightly called out Russia for its siege of Ukraine, rightly called out the attacks on the power infrastructure, their refusal to provide food, and water, and fuel to the Ukrainians. And we have to recognize that our credibility and our authority on the moral stage is greatly diminished if we do not also call out this siege that Israel is launching on Gaza as violations of international law. We are losing credibility. And, frankly, we're being isolated in the rest of the world."
