00:00And as you mentioned just before I asked you that question, a lot of what you were talking
00:04about happened on the watch of the previous administration. It happened on President Biden's
00:09watch. That's correct. Yes, that should never be forgotten. Right. And I just want to ask you
00:16whether you think ultimately his handling, not just of that issue, but issues right across the
00:22Middle East, in particular this issue of what's been happening in Gaza, do you think that's what
00:28cost them the election last year? Obviously, there's been a lot of speculation on that
00:37question. And since it involves subtleties of analysis, of which I'm not capable,
00:47because I've not studied the literature on the subject, I don't wish to comment.
00:54What I would want to say is, number one, however awful Trump turns out to be,
01:03we must remember that it was the Biden administration that gave the green light to
01:11the genocide in Gaza.
