The attack on Gaza reached a disturbing milestone Monday, as the Palestinian death toll surpassed 100. On Sunday’s Up, Chris Hayes’s panel—composed of Noura Erakat of Georgetown University, +972 magazine’s Noam Sheizaf, Yousef Munayyer of The Jerusalem Fund, and Newsweek’s David Frum—traced the context of the current crisis. The question on the table, as laid out by Erakat, is whether “Israel wants a diplomatic solution” or to just pummel Palestinians into subjegation.
