On this episode of "By Any Means Necessary" hosts Eugene Puryear and Sean Blackmon are joined by Ariel Gold, national co-director of CODEPINK to talk about the Trump administration's announcement that Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank do not violate international law and the impact of this US decision on the Palestinian people.
