Israel holds 4th election in 2 years, Palestine not a priority

The political future of longtime Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu hangs in the balance as Israeli citizens head to the polls for yet another election, the fourth in less than two years. Opposition figure Benny Gantz having abandoned his power-sharing deal, calls for “anyone but Netanyahu” are increasingly popular among younger voters. Israeli veteran, author and human rights activist Miko Peled joins In Question to share his insights. He argues that to speak of reconciliation with Palestinians is “political suicide” and predicts a victory for Netanyahu at the polls.

But first, His Excellency Abdallah Al-Mouallimi, Saudi Arabia's permanent representative to the UN, explains his country's conspicuous and widely condemned role in the ongoing civil war and humanitarian nightmare unfolding in Yemen. Then RT America's Faran Fronczak reports on the tit-for-tat exchange of sanctions between the EU and China, instigated by the former over alleged human rights abuses.
