Podcast host Joe Weiss said that the Palestinian Authorities are not to be trusted, particularly when it comes to casualty counts and who is to blame.
“Any civilian in Gaza or Palestinian that is killed in this, that's on Hamas and Palestine and Iran, ” Weiss told host Jansons on the Lake Forest podcast. “They're using them as human shields.”
“Israelis have no choice but to attack,” Weiss said. “It's to protect themselves.”
