Israel Under Widespread International Criticism for Settlement Expansion Plan

Israel Under Widespread International Criticism for Settlement Expansion Plan:

"Israel is coming under widespread international criticism for its plan to engage in a new round of illegal settlement expansion on occupied Palestinian land. Israel says it will build 900 new housing units in the East Jerusalem settlement of Gilo. Meanwhile, Palestinian Authority leaders began a renewed effort last week to win international support for formal Security Council endorsement of a Palestinian state based on 1967 borders. We speak with UCLA professor Saree Makdisi, author of Palestine Inside Out: An Everyday Occupation.

Guest:

Saree Makdisi, professor of English and Comparative Literature at UCLA and the author of several books. His latest is called Palestine Inside Out: An Everyday Occupation."
