Chaos erupted at a distribution site in Rafah today, where Gaza's Health Ministry says Israeli forces opened fire. It's the third day in a row that people have been killed on their way to collect critically needed aid at the site, which is run by the controversial new "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation." This time the Israeli military says its forces did open fire multiple times, after identifying quote "several suspects moving toward them, deviating from the designated access routes." Jeremy Diamond joins the program from Jerusalem.

  • Another Antisemitic Attack
    Jun 2 2025
    What was meant to be a gathering to support Israeli hostages held by Hamas turned into a crime scene in Boulder, Colorado on Sunday when a man attacked Jewish attendees with Molotov cocktails and a makeshift flame thrower. This is just the latest in a series of heinous assaults on Jewish people in America. Joining the show to discuss is Michael Bernstein, chair of the board of the Tree of Life, a non-profit organization started by the community and congregation leaders in Pittsburgh after 11 Jewish worshippers were brutally gunned down in 2018. Also on today's show: Col. Cedric Leighton, Military Analyst / U.S. Air Force (Ret.); Rebecca Winthrop, Director, Center for Universal Education, Brookings / Author, "The Disengaged Teen"; composer David Yazbek ("Dead Outlaw"); Michael Luo, Executive Editor, The New Yorker Learn more about your ad choices.

Then, best-selling German author Daniel Kehlmann speaks with Christiane about his new book “The Director," exploring what it was like for artists like G.W. Pabst who made films for Joseph Goebbels and the Nazis.
