May 31, 2024 -- Stephen Walt, professor at Harvard University, lashed out at American remarks and acts relating to the Palestinian issue in CGTN's special report "Fire and Fury." "It made the United States look more hypocritical in claiming to stand for a rules-based order to be a defender of human rights," he said. Despite the soaring death toll, the U.S. keeps adding fuel to the fire with continued provision of arms and military assistance to Israel, as well as repeated vetoes on resolutions for a ceasefire in Gaza. Everything that has happened in Gaza so far begs the question: Why does the self-proclaimed "defender of the international order" keep overriding truth with its power and trampling justice to serve self-interest?
