Why hasn’t Trump stopped Netanyahu?

Trump “broke” with Netanyahu recently by accepting the reality that people, including many children, are starving in Gaza.

Chris and Jarv speak to Professor Yossi Mekelberg, senior consulting fellow with the Middle East and North Africa Programme at Chatham House, to discuss Trump and Netanyahu’s relationship, how Trump could end this if he wanted to and what other leaders should do to stop the atrocities.
