United States of 'Hypocrisy' – Bassem and Mehdi on College Students, Free Speech, and Gaza

It's been almost two months since Mehdi and Bassem co-hosted
'We're Not Kidding' together and A LOT has happened since then.
As two naturalized US citizens, Mehdi and Bassem co-host again,
starting off the conversation discussing the Trump
administration's arrests of international residents in the US who
dare to criticize Israel.

The two also discuss Israel breaking the ceasefire deal (Bassem
compares Israel to ex you keep expecting better from) and its
renewed attacks on Gaza, which have killed over 700 Palestinians
in just three days with full political support from the Trump
administration. Bassem also points out the inherent hypocrisy of
US foreign policy throughout modern history – and how
they're each coping with it (or not).
