can be a little late, but i didn't mean that in that kind of simple life and it will cost the will. yeah . and so, but i most i said, okay. evelyn inspected fishing nets and the catch the boat for bringing up some fish on that. we're not too happy with their presence to face and we will need to know. i mean, that is something the, the claims of war crimes, inc garza, we've had devastating testimonies from civilian society this way, the army committed summary executions, the hello on the phone. this is audra 0 life, although i will. so coming up for the 1st time and need a month, us president joe biden speaks,

israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu to discuss the differences of a palestinian statehood. the day off through industry, at any rate in the occupied westbank is ready for us, is leave behind the trail of destruction and death and to come in and thousands of people. i'm reading some of the homes and some of the 11 on the simmering front line of an escalating conflict between israel and hezbollah. the thanks for joining us. we begin in gaza when more than a 140 pounds of students have been killed in this friday. attacks and just 24 hours, but it's not just as strikes and showing that it's getting civilians. human rights groups have been gathering testimonies of summary executions of palestinians biased reading forces, which is here has obtained exclusive putting his pictures on witness accounts. for members of one family, they say, on the 19th of december, i swear the soldiers executed at least 19 civilians in garza city. charles

stratford has the story and a warning. some view is may find the images in his report. distressing. the ruins of gall is a city destruction dex sounds. nobody's really military drugs above the whole accumulations of all claims. committed bodies really all me on the stairs lead to an apartment of a family home. the bullet cartridges, broken, abandoned belongings, walls and fools covered in blood the whole day can never forget the vip jonathan has families that are

locked in the tanks and builders is around the building. shells are being hit in the building for days. the situation was desperate. on the 19th of december israeli soldiers entered the building. they smashed and our apartment to my husband, opened it and told them we were all civilians collecting home and the notion of the money and money took them to another apartment. i folded them pleading wisdom to let him go because we were all civilians from the window members of the resistance here. now, the whole full grass numbers up for long again, the color didn't. they beat me and my daughters. they put us women in one place and threatened us with guns and knives. they made a strip, they searched just insulting us and using the most terrible woods. they took our names and filmed us. me go to the store, was massy on the 19 men in this building. they killed. my husband was one of them. they own them to bend down and execute them. they killed them. all these pictures obtained exclusively biologist era was shot just al is off to the events, almost

a describes the bodies of main entry holes of bullets in the back. oh my laptop, the bad. the last, the last one more days. daughter says when the killings have been carried out, shows still disputing the bill in the game that i should faced, exhausted and scared. she holds the tiny sure one by her 3 year old sister, another who died in her arms for the family shelters and the dog, cold room in jude children's day clothes go, lays wounded on the floor. there was little food except soup to eat. with the law as the letters in the hand, when the settler had locked on, the soldiers came in and separated the women and the children from the men. they kept us in decision room while the excuse of the man outside was holding my sister

in my arms, then the shell and resumed that i was hit. she made some soft noises. she asked for some water. i thought she was crying, but she was dying. shrapnel has entered her head, eyes and neck notices. my sister tried to carry the body, but she fell from her arms at the door. the notice eyes was still open as she passed away. the wounds to her hated to shock, to show a young family broken by the horror. these really always killing and destruction in the gaza strip. and knowing it's likely that no one will ever be tried for what they saw and the pain they continue to endure catastrophic ultra 0. william chavez was a chairman of the commission of inquiry on the 2014 gosh, a conflict. he's now a professor of international middle section of us, the u. k. he told us that providing the testimonies by civilians of all crimes and

goals that can be verified, compelling enough to bring a legal case against israeli forces. i'm assuming that this evidence is valid that the film is authentic, and that the eye witnesses are reliable and telling the truth. this is very compelling. strong evidence of a summary execution, which is an international more crime. it's punishable by the international criminal court that have to know is the identity of the perpetrators a that's one of the great challenges in a, in a situation like this is actually finding out who are the people who, who fired the the, the weapons or gave the orders of presumably not the evidence, that is it's not a mystery, but it's evidence on the control of the is really defense force and whether they're going to provide access to that is another question. i would think that live under the circumstances it's, it's not likely now that they're going to be able to do that kind of forensic

examination of the bodies to determine more of the details about how the killings took place so that the films themselves would be the fundamental evidence coupled with the eye witness testimony, but again that in my opinion, shouldn't be enough to convict providing that it's reliable. and of course, you need to ideally appear on the other side of the story, from the perpetrators to see what they have to invoking defense processing and say the situation is die off in southern guns as largest safety con eunice with casualties on mounting. is there any forces have been pounding the area with strikes coming for i'm showing israel's offensive has intensifies due to cities. 2 major hospitals including gauze as largest remaining functioning, nessa hospital. so at least 2 people were killed when israel bones near

a mile hospital. not the hospital did not receive any evacuation or dis, thousands of displays. people are there. with no way to go. tens of thousands of palestinians are once again forced the fleet for the south, the palestinian red crescent has set up new display spring comes from people arriving in rough according to the un, roughly 85 percent of girls. this population to be upgraded from their home. some multiple times. meanwhile, phone and internet services have been partially restored off the goals as long as communication blackouts since the will become part of what was there and report some rafa in southern gaza. generally now with the return of communications, insight garza, the situation seems to be calling back to 4 residents to check on each other, especially for palestinian families who are completely are away from others. as part of the families are in the north and others happens is taking refuge in the south on time. in the past few days, it was

a full black out of communications which can sit it to be the longest since the outbreak of this conflict at the task. before i did that, i did the test last 4 more done one week where palestinians were facing a very notable difficulty in terms of communication with the communicating with each other room side also with the carrying out their commercial into actions. but right now would there be tons of these communications now they can, they can be able to communicate again and we need also to report and to point out that they are a number of a technical team is belonged to the palestinian telecommunication companies. have been cute as they were trying to repair the damage that had been inspected about by the east, by the wide destruction and a that had been carried out within the last couple of days, of course separate areas. and especially in con eunice, where 2 of the engineers have been killed as they were hating to fix a pot to the network that had been damaged. so completely right now with the

registration of use that works, the situation for palestinians considered to be partially good as they are waiting for full return for the communications of course, calls a strip just in order to check with each other and at least to report if there's any appoint as traits for the thomas, the minister of hills, to rush to evacuate the victims on the internet as well as president joe biden has had a phone call with his randy prime minister benjamin netanyahu, the 1st in weeks to abide in his reiterated clothes for a 2 state solution saying, there are multiple ways to do that. the conversation came a day off and this and you know, who said he opposes palestinian statehood over after the war is over. some countries that are members that are still the easiest ways in which is

all right, well in a moment we'll get the latest from the solid and i'll get by the history slip. but 1st, let's go to the kind of official in washington dc anal and what else of the us president have to say? well, he's asked, would it be impossible to have a 2 state solution with benjamin netanyahu? he's still in power. i mean, that's a very simply knew, he was also asked whether or not there would be conditions on age to israel because of the stance the benjamin netanyahu was taken on the 2 state solution. and he said, we'll work something out. and then he was asked that is the possibility that there could be some sort of trustee solution that he went on to talk about. i think you had the clip that there are ways of making this work. and that would be something that the americans would be interested in investigating. it's clear that benjamin netanyahu doesn't want to publicly criticize benjamin netanyahu, so it's very clear the job item doesn't want to publicly criticize benjamin

netanyahu. but what is also clear is that there is a growing feeling in the united states. is it benjamin netanyahu? while he says the has to be disagreements, even with our friends, is simply ignoring the us when it comes to the idea of an independent palestine. after the war, it has been us policy for more than 20 years. it's something that has been pushed by joe biden. but the flip side of that is that it, benjamin netanyahu has never been a fund of the idea. and that spring to put a considerable amount of time as well. and as, as we said a short while ago, the 1st phone call and some time between the 2 latest, do we have any more details about what was discussed as well? we get the official reader which tells us the things that we would expect that they discussed getting more 8 into gaza at the americans. also it nice that there would be flower going in through these really ports of storage, which is something that these really government hasn't announced yet. we should be

careful about that because that's happened as well when there's been a disconnect and the sort of announcement they also talked about the efforts to try and free the captives in gaza. and how the is really what effort is going and how they're trying to put military pressure on hamas and the leadership to try and bring in names to the war by giving up the captives. but what is also clear is that there is, despite what the white house would want is to believe a disconnect between the us and israel, over the issue of the 2 state solution. know israel in america, one to present themselves as being almost in sync with us. and you'll remember that after october, the 7th, a joe biden was one of the fox world leaders to visit israel. he hugged benjamin netanyahu on the time. mike, but the americans want to see a scaling back of the war. they've been talking about it for more than a month. they want to see a 2 state solution after the war. they've been talking about that for more than 20

years. but the messages they're getting from benjamin netanyahu is that if he's in power after the war, that's not going to happen. right. many things. so i don't know for sure in washington dc that's bringing home to solitude and our who's to, you know, keep on the east re slim and honda. so the us and israel openly disagree of a palestinian stated and growing rest within the wall cabinet of what the, what is going. so that's exactly right. there's mounting pressure on these really prime minister on the international front, specifically pressure from the americans that has been mounting for months, but on the homefront from his own government, from his own society, from the families of the captives. if you look at polling numbers among is rallies and if elections were held today, these really prime minister would be somebody else. but within his own government you have the wrist within the coalition. specifically with the right wing camp, the ultra nationalist like method has smelt rich and he some are ben beer and even

within his own war cabinet. and remember, these are individuals, these really prime minister hand pick to assist him in his efforts during war time, in an interview with his really media, one of those war cabinet members guy. the eyes in coach said that perhaps defeating him, us entirely is not actually something that can be done and there needs to be a reworking of israel's war strategy. he also said that there should be elections held during war time to kind of cement the populations, confidence in these really government. and while a lot of these really society supports, the war effort supports the bringing back of the captive supports the army. their support for prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been waiting for months even before the war began. this is israel's most right wing government and its history, and it is unpopular with a lot of the society, but within his own war cabinet. within his coalition, there are several instances that have been reported of back and forth with how

these relatives are conducting themselves in this war. these really prime minister has been quite firm in his stance that there will be no palestinian state after the war. that there will be a military presence in gaza. that military pressure is the only way to bring back the captives. and until all of his military goals are achieved, the war is going to continue. and security and political official have been saying back to me for the entirety of this year, and even early into the year 2025 and us out of it and occupy the streets of them. thank you. okay, let's bring in stevens higgins. the is a professor of politics and international studies of the university of san francisco. he joins us from san francisco, right, one welcome to you. but what does this public disagreement between the us and israel ever published in his site states? i'd say firstly about us influence over israel and secondly above and that's and you know, who governments, long term goals for the region of the long term goals. so he is really government

have done rather clear they are want to and next the west bank or they want the river to the sea under uh, jewish supremacy. and uh with the subjugation or even expulsion of the indigenous palestinian population. now they've not made much of a secret of that. and yet the by demonstration has worked on the pre drafts so they can somehow convince them to moderate or a but to but now it appears that by and finally it's concluded that they cannot proceed with that. and that's in yahoo. the question though is that there, there is a lot of opposition in israel outside of nes and yahoo in the far right to any kind of a viable palestinian state. that is one that has as good as the others can take us, you know, or even if it's not divided up into small, non continuous count on surrounded by supplements, the points and that kind of thing. that's the question, but a little earlier as

a colleague of them, fisher in washington, dc said so jerry, bye didn't seem to suggest that netanyahu might not be opposed to all to states solutions. but there are number of types possible said bite in some states. he said, don't have military forces, it's not really a realistic prospect. a prospect of the policy is whatever, accept the o. d militarized palestinian stadium. i might be a possibility it uh, but uh that again the, the question is, is how, how, how, how the land is going is going to be. i mean, if you have anyone who has been to the west, the bank is i have an a number of occasions. uh it is an a party type system where you have separate roads. uh for, for, for jews. uh these, these jewish only tell them and they're taking over the beth land, the surrounding the population centers. and the end of it it's, it's like the a baptist dams of south africa, of any kind of, if they're still going to be a t, right solution. and then as many people are going to meet deductible, that's going to have to control the entire westbank for sure. very few as rarely as

i'm willing to do, given that it's where it was whole ongoing as it was predicated on the basis that it was. or had the right to defend itself. i mean, how can we possibly imagine a future palestinian state without the even the capability to defend itself who for instance, would provide the palestinians with security and less? don't forget that the former head of the po, yes, our 5, flatly rejected the possibility of having no ami in perhaps the international community could play a role. but any kind of a 1000 and for us to be no match to the power of the israelis or any way the, the basic uh, the thing here is a bike and keeps talking about a few states solution. but he recognizes israel and palestine is encouraging countries to unilaterally recognize israel, or actively discouraging the countries or the united nations from recognizing a palestine. i mean, m l a refuses to condition age israel or,

or stop based on un security council resolutions. there's nothing that vitamin is doing that really backs up his rhetoric for tuesday. solution for calling for 2 things. solution used to be the one that the supporters, the palestinians wouldn't mind, would wouldn't talk about the end, the occupation. but now it's just being used as a line by those who support the israeli occupation to keep pushing off the, the inevitability of that, of the creeping annexation that we've been seeing for many years. i wonder, to what extent so domestic politics is playing into all of this at the moment. so i mean, how afraid is job i didn't of losing the, the jewish votes, the christian, evangelical vice, and the forthcoming election, the most curious are going to vote for the bite. and regardless of given uh, given the uh they, they tend to be on the left end of the political spectrum. and trump is very, very scary of course. and they have been how it whole tend to vote for the republicans, regardless of the politically. this doesn't make sense at all because he is losing

a lot of the board over there, especially among younger motors and minority voters. and indeed he is a support among our american voters, for example has gone from 59 percent down to 19 percent them among young voters, 30 and under. yeah, there is greater opposition to buying a policy on an israel and palestine. then there was 4 bush interact, reagan in central america, and even nixon on vietnam. so politically, this is a disaster for a bite. and i think he frankly is just an idea log who really believes and he is really projects. and his way to, to there's not even assumption that by being nice enough in yahoo will be, might be able to get these relays to compromise, even though that has been shown over and over again. that simply does not work. right. an unrelenting position that may well bank fire on bite, and we'll see in the coming futures. stevens and professor of politics and international studies at the university of san francisco. it's been a pleasure to have you on the program. still

a had here on out there. i'm hundreds if it has to is comes to the home of his rounds. prime minister benjamin netanyahu to them on the release of captives held by some us off to the west flooding and 6 decades. more than 350000 people in the republic of congo, and now in desperate need of 8 the route to you by visit coastal however, it's really cold. weather is now way using across much of north america is still pretty cold. having said that, you see this areas of cloud here that drifting after the very latest by the system here. this area of light pressure will stay away from the eastern seaboard for the west. another one coming in from the pacific in between, we got a big area applied pressure, lots of fog freezing fall,

get lots and lots of for us to well, of course you can see how the winds coming from of, and will be direction is a big, big of cold air coming to rod and across the plains, sinking further south. that is some fast they struggling to get to around 3 degrees celsius. negative double figures that cause a good cause have counted, does it go on into a sunday? it becomes from say less cold, the cold just for taking a little further north was would still plenty cold enough if the truth be nice. so it is something of an improvement. it's actually quite quiet that way we have that area of high pressure, still a few wintry showers, tools and all these little bit of leg effects. now, for much of north america, it is dry, but we have got some wet weather. so when few weather, some very heavy rain coming in across the west coast, much of the west coast things and big down poles, then as we go one through us on the snow making his way towards the rockies. meanwhile, across the caravans. a lot of fine and dry weather. would that be to have some showers into central america in the quote to you by

visit cuts on the the the you're watching. i'll just hear his remind of our top story is this our testament, some civilians and gods are accused these ready? um you have coming out executions to 0 has obtained exclusive pictures. i've

witness accounts for members of one family village. at least 19 civilians were executed by israeli soldiers. december, the 19 full of the 140 people have been killed in just 24 hours and goes up as well as offensive, has intensified in 2 major hospitals and the southern city kaji. this year's president job item that israel as prime minister benjamin netanyahu discussed gaza over the phone. and the 1st conversation in weeks items says there are a number of types of 2 state solution. so products, time message. i often nothing yahoo refuse to consider promised to me a state hundreds of protests as intel of eve gather the new the home of prime minister benjamin netanyahu to demand the release of captives. so being held in guns. and some demonstrates a set of tents with pictures of the missing loved ones determined to combat overnight or the white house, or is it seriously concerned off the killing of a palestinian american then the occupied westbank. it happened during multiple this

riley rates across the regional service, a 17 year old palestinian american was shot in the head and killed. can a village east offer model is ready for us is damaged buildings on the roads or for a series of raids in tucker. i mean they occupied westbank last of almost 2 days. or abdul hamid reports is it day after. and these a collective sigh of relief is really forces have retreated. people are bewildered by the destruction in an alleyway i. so most one can find the degree for his son. one of 7 who were killed here during the fighting died salt and dragged by an armored vehicle. he was finally left to bleed on the ground. this is really forces prevented thorough medics from reaching him for several hours. the

it's hard hard. what can we do? he's not the 1st or the last one. i'm done. everyone is upset at the moment. those who lost their homes, those who lost their children. there was a lot of pain around the corner from there, the house of uses just send me that is turned upside down. the soldiers 1st searched and then use it as a collection point for detainees. they have them here blindfolded. she says to me on that now, the minute she says it has search 1000 houses doing the incursion. that's 1000 house is run. sec sent me right. not only lost her nephew in this rate, but also memories of her lifetime. uprooted by a bulldozer. it was so smooth my father's phone to that tree and for 50 years it kept him growing. it was this too many refugees here originally from

areas around to leave or haifa, but the band from returning there, they were expelled in 1948 after the creation of the state of israel. a police sent me an armed resistance was born in these alleyways. one that is real is trying to crush, woke up with us in the, to the how many then has seen many raids in his life. but since october, the 7th dynamic has changed to them. he says, israel is sending a message to everyone here. they'll come to hall is that the group i had before was i would write a house to a re someone's and demolish that house. but it wasn't even like this. the roads, the toner pod, there's no water or electricity engineer was off. there's no access to food or medical treatment since the gold i hate has more and more. they want us out with 1000 gallons of scene to egypt and we think residents seem to jordan. the raid lost its 45 hours the extent of the damage here and to cairo, tells

a similar story of what happened in other refugee camps, such as in geneva, and one clearing up people that were ready bracing themselves for the next incursion. which they say will come sooner rather than later. we'd have to meet a visitor in the, to carry me refugee camp and israel as long as strikes also in southern lebanon. this radio me says they were targeting has bloss sides since october, the 7th, the israel 11 on board as a witness to mid day the exchange of 5. between is there any forces and has below the cost far along the boat has full spouses of people to leave the homes and say, no hold on reports from some level southern lebanon, it's border towns, largely abandoned, and devastated. an escalating conflict between israel and the lebanese armed group has beloved, has created the de facto buffer zone along the border. several kilometers deep.

below israel has floated the idea of formalizing the buffer zone, saying it will restore security. hezbollah says it will pull back with k u and step it to start to targeting largely evacuated towns to make northern israel uninhabitable in israel is trying to show it has options to helps us to is retentive. i'm not in a safe way to keep has the law. i'm the resistance away from the false. what it doesn't, it must stuff. it's war on garza and 11 on israel has increased the intensity of it strikes on what it says is hezbollah, as military infrastructure in one of the biggest attacks is repeatedly hit the strategic valley known to be the lebanese arm groups, main area of operations and the gateway to the countries interior be as railways appear to also be trying to degrade the infrastructure, the kind of the, the, the capabilities in depth that hezbollah has. why?

because i think, and this is true for both sides, that there is at least an expectation for the.
