Trump’s son-in-law admits to Israel’s brutality in Gaza

Donald Trump’s representatives, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who played a role in brokering Gaza’s fragile ceasefire, spoke in a full interview aired yesterday on CBS’s 60 Minutes.

While both denied that Israel committed genocide in Gaza, Kushner described his observations during a visit to Gaza as resembling “an area where it was almost like a nuclear bomb had exploded.”

In the detailed interview about his visit to Gaza after the ceasefire agreement, Kushner said he asked the Israeli army where the Palestinians were going. He added:

“I looked around, and it was all rubble. They [Israeli soldiers] said they would return to the same place where their homes had been destroyed and pitch tents on their own land.”

Kushner continued: “And that’s really sad, because you think to yourself, they really have nowhere else to go.”

Despite these descriptions, both Kushner and Witkoff firmly rejected that the Israeli army committed genocide in Gaza. Witkoff stated: “Absolutely not. The war was ongoing.”
