5:05 am
residential house. and that's absolutely a part of the reality of what, what's going on in the vicinity of a she felt hospital or not in the states has reported. they approved an alms package for israel. that includes thousands of booms, $1800.00 bombs that way. 900, she. those have been signed, all funded by the administration. also authorized for trans federal, 500 palms weighing 250 q those. the multi $1000000000.00 package includes 5 subjects for these rarely ministry. i want task correspondence. kimberly how could, has more from washington dc to despite increasing pressure from high profile democratic senators and members of congress on capital hill to limit military aid to israel to help the number of civilian casualties as a result of israel's war on gaza. the white house was signed off on another routine
5:06 am
transfer of bonds and war plains to israel. now last week, the state department authorized this. this was initially authorized in 2008. it amounts to about $2500000000.00 in not only fighter jets, but also in support of the bombs that they would carry. this, despite a growing risk between both is really and us government, you will recall that earlier this week, the is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu abruptly cancelled a planned meeting between us and is really officials that was to review these really military campaign plans for procedures and military plans for as round invasion into rafa. something that the u. s. is strongly opposed to with out any sort of plan for the more than a 1000000 palestinians who are currently sheltering there. now the reason for the
5:07 am
cancellation was because the united states refused to veto a un security council resolution calling for a temporary cease fire in gaza. as a result, now we do know that the meeting has been rescheduled, although the date of that has not yet been determined. what we do know, however, is that the united states is hoping during that meeting to discuss with israel, possible alternatives to any sort of military campaign into rafa. kimberly help it out to 0. washington or the mazda administration supports for israel has prompted this settings within the state department. this week of foreign affairs officer, promoted human rights, on behalf of the us government, became the latest employee to leave her a job in protest. my colleague elizabeth cronum spoke to i know she like you said
5:08 am
she could no longer be an accomplice to crimes against humanity. i thought about resigning every time. israel violate. busy international law hitting hospitals, schools, and killing civilians with impunity and the us government did nothing to try to hold them accountable. so. busy the timing of my resignation reflects the fact that i did it, i owed an obligation to the us government. i received an arabic scholarship and so i owe the government a year. so um on, on the 300 and 65th day i ended in my resignation. i also thought about resigning sooner, but also my, my team is involved in the human rights reports and it's, it's a very labor intensive process. and so i wanted to also make sure that we had, we'd completed that work before i left. and how has, you know, america support for israel affected your work in the region?
5:09 am
it was already difficult. um, you know, american credibility on standing up for human rights in the middle east was hardly spotless. to say the least. however, um, it has become incredibly more difficult in the aftermath of october 7th, whether it's that and using the region, we're not willing to engage with us any longer or it would just put them in a much greater risk. now then, and then in the past, and it just the us as lost all credibility on, on trying to advocate for human rights. or even those individuals who would meet with us would bring up guys a 1st. even though these are individuals who are facing extreme levels of progression in their own society and you've said elsewhere that many of your colleagues feel betrayed just how widespread is that discontent and the state department over the government support as well. it's hard to say, i mean, the state department i believe is, is the 2nd largest institution after the department of defense and in the us
5:10 am
government. so as far as the people i was in touch with, you know, people that i would consider friends and colleagues and when i said that i was going to resign initially, i was going to do it privately and, and people said, you know, please speak out for us and sense resigning. i've had gotten a lot of messages of support and their organizations, feds, united for peace is an organization. there are other other groups trying to, to mobilize and, and also there many people who are still inside the state department. we're doing very important work on this, but until the, until president bided is willing to, to really make, make a and to take a new stance here. their work inside status is not really going to make a difference. he spoke about why you resigned on the 300 and 65th day of your time and the state department of the spokesperson mastery. miller said that you were a fellow at the state department who finished the 1st year of
5:11 am
a program with the option of a 2nd. yes, seemingly down playing your role at the department. what's your response to that? i mean, you know, i've, i've been upfront about the fact that i totally been there for a year, but my office had asked me to stay, you know, beyond the initial 2 year contract they, they would have been happy to help you stay. and i did resign, you know, i, i completed my obligation of, of a full year and i, i would if, if this were not happening, i would have been very happy to stay. i really believed in the work that i was doing. and, you know, i think it's, it's very important that the united states actually uphold the values that it claims to, to, to believe in. and that it, that american model moral leadership around the world depends on america actually standing up for, for these values that we, that our leadership likes to talk about, but doesn't necessarily like to uphold. you have made this decision at a great personal cost resigning public today. from the us state department,
5:12 am
wallet support. one of the most brutal was of odd times. why was the southern portion for you? why was that risk worth taking fees? um, i think the, sorry i, the main reason is that i have a daughter. um and she's twos, right. yeah. but if, if in the future she were to ask you about what i did as this has happened 8. i just, i want her to know that i didn't stay silent. um i, i, i, i just, i don't think i could i, i couldn't continue to watch what was happening and just keep going to work every day. israel says it has killed a senior has but i'll come on the and across the board. a striking negative attack came shortly after a series of these very strikes on targets and syria that killed thousands of people . 6 of them reports of the has been off, fights is saying,
5:13 am
a 100 reports from the route they're becoming more frequent. apparent is really strikes on iranian and iranian link targets in syria, the, the latest what are believed to be weapons deposed. and the northern province of a level, a few dozen people were killed among them, syrian military personnel and members of the liberties arms group has beloved. israel is basically trying to establish itself as the body that has the upper hand in this complex. and i don't think it's very the politicians to understand that you're wrong. here's the law and the regime are not interested in immune 5 of israel has for years said it will allow iran and its allies, whose influence in syria has grown to entrench themselves in the country militarily
5:14 am
. in recent months, it's targeted commanders and members of the rounds. revolutionary guards no longer just focusing on weapons storage sites and convoys carrying arms along israel stated goals is preventing syria being used as a transit points for weapons to reach has beloved and the occupied palestinian territories. there is what has been described as a shot, the war between israel and iran in syria for years now. and in recent months since hospital opens a front line against israeli forces to help palestinians and gaza as well appears to be employing the same strategy against hezbollah, he runs a life in loving on here in lovely non targeted killings by a parent is really drawn, strikes are increasing more often than knock members of hezbollah, and at times field commanders are killed. many here see a strategy of israel diminishing its enemies. operational capabilities has below,
5:15 am
for its part, raised the costs of the conflict for israel by forcing it to empty much of its north of many of its people. it has yet to escalate to the level of full scale conflict. but the warrant is ready. if israel expands the war, the events of uh, the last 2 days have been wider than what we've seen in quite some time. so i expect only further escalation. unfortunately, we're in a regional situation where the prospects of de escalation are, are, are, are quite limited. and while much of the world's focus is on the war on gaza, the violence between israel and has the law is beginning to intensify center for their eligibility to baby. so the head on out is there on the siege from the bottom is ready such as an occupied westbank, the reports on the sides of some kind of thing. and families being forced to live and make shift and rational thoughts. he's making you arrest in connection with
