he won the enjoy up to 3 months, free subscription of free being set top box. that mo, i'm lot more deals and watch exclusive from a dental family drama, drama and chuck running on kid shows. cooking shows you a for you right 2020 full top. you're viewing leads and much more. don't forget to use the promo code from it that the sharpest criticism, yes of israel's actions in gaza. with even the us joining the global course of condemnation of to more than 33000 policy invest, israel's coming of 7 international aid workers triggered the west most curious response to date. so how is events this week effect to israel's international stand? this is inside school, the

hello there on chains phase for palestinians in gauze, there's not be much change. and yet another week in israel school, more attacks and destruction, more data and in should more danger of starvation, fireman, and disease. israel, however, this week has been a spectacular disaster. a drone attack on 3 separate vehicles coming international 8 volunteers is enraged israel's allies, including the us elsewhere. israel space get more exemptions of war crimes with more countries joining south africa's genocide case that the international court of justice moved warnings to for its weapons supplies that they may be assisting, genocide, and on television street, small protest amounting prime minister benjamin netanyahu. step down, the list goes on well for decades as well as relied on the support of the us, the u. k. a most of the you to, um, funded, committed to do is it pleases this week a signal to dramatic shift, at least in tone. so what does this mean and to what degree is rubbing damage this

week, but certain action, so i'll be discussing, oldest with, i'll guess in a moment. but 1st this report from whom i call some sharif. the images like these have what is well under pressure from its best and allies, the killing, but is rarely drone of 7 bulls central kitchen. international aid workers has prop the strongest criticism sofa since it's well began its war on casa. 3 successive attacks on the convoys left no survivors, even as well as maine on supply of financial backer and protect to the united nations joined its critics. us preston, joe biden wants to see concrete steps to prevent civilian debts and to bu stayed from us for that. yeah. when dictated to president biden, that is, israel would be making further changes to his procedures to make sure that those who are providing assistance to people who so desperately need it and gaza are

protected. so we're going to be looking very carefully at what those steps are, how it achieves better. deacon's, flexion better coordination, so that aid workers are protected. be, is highly military has admitted it. kilby, a workers describing it as a mistake. allies whose citizens were among the victims on demanding on says this copy brushed aside. people have been rising consensual, some time about the what is occurring in relation to humanitarian was, is this has been a deadly failure of the conflictions. we mean, so that's far, poland and other countries that last citizens in this attack and expect the transparent investigation. in my opinion, as a lawyer, i call them might have pushed. the one says nearly 208 workers have been killed and is rez roland because war is riley, has never apologize. no accepted responsibility for the steps. the un secretary

general says they were a direct consequence of faith squarely tactics. and the central problem is not only made the mistakes, it is the military strategy and procedures in place that to allow for those mistakes to multiply by. and by again fixing those failures require does independence investigations and meaningful and measurable changes on the go. also, after a phone call between biden and his rarely prime minister, benjamin netanyahu is well said it would open the air as land crossing the northern gauze to allow we need in the past 6 months, the rustle and cut them up. we'll sell them crossings. have been open, little bit supplies, disrupted, or halted by is rarely checks and delays. european foreign policy chief, joseph beretta, has accused as well of provoking firm and in gaza and says, opening the new crossings won't be enough to prevent starvation. we continue down

this path of all parties to conflict flagrantly between the rules of war and international humanitarian law. 0 accountability, powerful nations refusing to use the leverage of influence at their disposal. then the next set of mass deaths of children and gaza will not be from bullets and bombs . it will be from starvation and mel nutrition for months is rel headspace, mounting closer pressure over the 10s of thousands of civilians that skills. oh, in just i'm maimed and gaza. now, these goals can be heard in the condos of power around was that some countries pulling for i'm seems to is well to be stopped making some should leave. i'll just see the inside story. well let's discuss all of this now with today's guess. joining us by skype from ramallah is political analysts. no, they gideon levy is

a columnist full. i read newspaper. he joins us from tel aviv and joining us from long and miss chris doyle, who's director of the council for our, the british understanding. thank you all for joining us. the question today is whether we're seeing the 6 month mark may be a little bit of a turning point. the most important and dramatic and shocking development. both side attack on the aid workers from the world central kitchen, hunted down from one vehicle to a 2nd. then the 3rd by a drone using precision weapons. no, i mean this was a shocking attack. shocking may be though, because we know all the details and that being so many other attacks attacks every single day when we don't get to know the details. absolutely. i mean, this was a, an attack that brought into sharp focus. a password is really behavior that we see not just in the past 6 months, but really for many, many years. but certainly the highest number of un aid workers killed in the

organizations. history happened over the past 6 months in gaza with 0 accountability this time it was far more difficult for israel to kind of wiggle its way out of responsibility from this attack. it is unfortunate, of course, that killing international aid workers was the um, the reason why the world was suddenly outraged as this, the 10s of thousands of palestinians, of aid workers of doctors without borders. and so many other organizations didn't matter, didn't count get in. i mean, not unusually speedy investigation by these riley military. in fact, tell me any other investigation that we've had during 6 months of all they've dismissed a kind of letting the major 3 of the come on does, including a general, formally reprimanded and the drone unit responsible has been suspended. yeah, i'm surprised, surprised when the wakes up. it has through spawn. but even though i have to tell

people i would expect x to base the asian was bringing people to adjust this. not only dismissed them, not only 5, there was all the respect with english life of 7, you know, said being put, which well was taking deliberately. don't that. what about this? so where yes is right, needs pressure. and that's the only conclusion of this horrible tragedy is a needs and finish a pressure. you know, the whole thing has to be small, but the cease fire and the 4, but everything this was vague. it does a sub by the source, i hope to speak of all the rest, but the phone, the bundle, this way. here's what i used to be. even watching much was from dish there on the 6th of october in any aspect. so what one and if you look

chris at the, the desk told now the 6 month month mark, it stands around $33000.00. we know that's and on the account because we know there are many bodies under the rubble that haven't been identified. 2 sides of that though, believe to be women and children. so wherever the inquire is into at least 20000 innocent palestinians, this says quite extraordinary subjects of these international laws. the front page headlines across europe in the united states and politicians who said pretty much, nothing critical of israel off till now. getting very angry and what talk about it because we've seen israel not a kill that huge number of bottles. stay in the study. 3016000 children, but they palmed every aspect to civilian infrastructure, whether its hospitals, medical center schools, universe dues, libraries. bakeries, watch what's. they have called her eyes gauze and they estimates all that. this will cost $18.00 and i'll put in dollars to rebuild. but no outrage,

we started off with massive support for as well then slowly and uncomfortable silence. i'm. we're now getting to the situation of baby steps of considering measures against as ro, nothing more that but we do see a discussion that is happening once a big issue. should that be, for example, a find on the sale of arms. this has been something that's been very live, certainly in britain and in other countries where it's no longer off the table is something that is that, but only now we have been now several months since the international court of justice determined, though a plausible grounds. genocide was happening and we still haven't got to an arms and bulk was still selling weapons with one hand and giving food with the other. so yes, i agree with getting labor, we need a lot more pressure and fast. and we need an end to this will folks stop,

it's going on far too long and nobody's going to be the winner out of order this. know you had mentioned that from chris of the international court of justice twice, they've come up with provisional measures. it took a very, very long time, but the un security council has them onto the c spa, perhaps one thing that went a little unnoticed in everything else that has been going on. most of the, the human rights of council, the un that's adopted, a resolution calling for israel to be held accountable for possible war crimes and crimes against humanity that vote was 284, and 6 against with 13 extensions with notes in the us and germany were among those against but international opinion is now it's taking a long time, but it is really tough to use it not i think so. yes. and, and dreams. i think it's important also to kind of not give these governments a lot of credit. they are changing their tone,

and maybe some of them are changing or considering a change in policy, very reluctantly, and it's happening because of domestic pressure. there's a lot of pressure on the streets in london and in paris and in germany and in the united states, telling their governments that this is not a policy that people that voters constituents can live with. and i think that is what is pushing that change in tone. certainly in the united states, we don't see a shift in policy. we don't see the white and white house saying we want the war to stop. they want israel to do better to conduct this war. in a, in a more efficient, more humane way if, if that is even a possible scenario. but the point is, was not that pressure. we would have seen a continuation of where we were at the beginning of this genocide, a more absolute complicity, cheering on the as rarely as they pulverized universities and hospitals and schools

without any concern or regard for palestinian lives. that is changing, but it's not changing because they, the governments have had a change of heart, a city and as, as no said, and we've getting pressure from all sorts of courses. we know that prime minister netanyahu doesn't really care about the us. and he hasn't picked up the phone to the un secretary general, one point during the last 6 months. he probably has a bit what your opinions think, but as know says it's the us really, that is the key play. i think you'd agree with. now we've had a cool from a president biden to present nothing yahoo with us he minute cool, which was described as extremely tense. and the us this morning that it's approach to gauze is going to change unless israel change is very specific things. how important do you think this coal was the school was a very good example to was sure to be there. and what the code is being in boston.

first above everywhere ask why do you use that open? don't say, such as simple as old. you know, i can ask the just why did you the mind is only know, then why did you did you did mind they don't. and now in this very tough way, the month 67 leslie is the united states. so we really want for this war and i think it's without the best phone because the americans, we photo, they're called dimensions. and the frontier advisor was met the metrics and the searching which i have to say, i have a lot of the appreciation to these when he turned a truck so full, then maybe seen a really fine to but they're really saying that this, what does it, these the only thing they need are the arrows will need just some portions of price,

you know, the to continue before the year or another year. i mean their life is turning into really not seeing the world any book picture in the us. so you really think there's one more truck trucks you'd really stage of life's, they use the ending to know and they'll get to get another legs resides. chris, let me ask you about some of the specific things the, the us is demanding of israel. we've heard gideon talk about some of them that one of them is on aid workers. they want new procedures to protect aid. well, cuz i want to seems that means revise the rules of engagement because some suspect that there's been a pretty indiscriminate, if in doubt shoot to kill policy in place, would you let me give them the, the desktop? there's not many, many of the conclusions you can come to can you as well. we seeing reports in these riley major of interviews with soldiers,

where they basically have admitted that local commanders have that ability to shoot to kill if they see a, a young man and fighting age. the assumption is that his anatomy and should be taken out, and that is why we have seen such horrific haughton, high numbers of fatalities. so look, i mean, that's no good talking about the confliction mechanisms and thinking this is some solution because to distributed aid in the gulf strip right now is almost impossible. you're talking about a situation where you're still being boned, where the roads are almost impossible or as well my scales on the streets. of course, people are stopping, i mean, 1100000 people that stop ation levels. so any time a trunk correct? for course they attract huge crowds. this is not the way to be able to save these people. you need an end of conflict and getting libya's absolute right. so with 10 coming at the edges here. but i think one thing that has been shown we've had is

really spokesman lecturing us that is known as well. that is stopping going into cause. there's not as well as how much this vote. and yet, what we have seen is the israel is able and willing to open those called crossings if it is, has pressure placed on it. in other words, it could have allowed aiden to gauze, and it hasn't been doing so. and it's extraordinary. the politicians are talking about this now because it's ro was very clear, right from the outset. on the 9th of october, it employed a total siege to 9 pound a series of buildings and goes aboard to food medicines and the like. it was very clear, it's politicians, it's leaders have been very clear. and yet somehow we didn't want to believe them. we don't, didn't want to believe that they were trying to deliver a 2nd neck, but that old palestinians and garza were not innocent. that they would eliminate everything as these really defensive is to say that in october. so now it's

a weight comp cool to the international community. all you're going to take measures, are you going to stop this house? or are you going to be held up to be complicit in the is to come know off of a bite and ness and yahoo cole. the us extra state on to the blinking says that israel will be tested on the results of its actions. he says there are specific metrics in place says one of them is an indicator that simon is receding. well, it's going the other way at the moment. the un says, as of the 1st of april 28, children have died of malnutrition in d hydration. but of course, the north of garza is almost inaccessible in terms of access by humanitarian workers and in terms of communication. so the fitness could be much why it couldn't back. absolutely, absolutely. and i think again, what the americans are doing now. i mean, it seems like a big deal because they've been complicit in this war since the beginning. so it date seems like a big deal when they're kind of telling the israelis that they need to take other

kinds of measure. they need to allow more trucks. but i, i think this can only happen an accelerate if the americans feel more pressure from their allies in europe and beyond. just like israel needs the americans to pressure them to lay it's foot. you know, the, the ground rules for how this will continue or end. the americans also need to hear from their allies from your, from nato allies, telling them enough is enough. we cannot tolerate what is happening. we cannot be complicit in it. we have serious legal concerns and i think we're beginning to see that we see actions being taken in, in, in courts, in, in europe. we see ireland for example, taking more and more steps towards accountability towards divestment. we see up 600 lawyers and judges in the u. k. selling their governments that they must stop the

arms trade with israel because this puts everybody and makes everybody liable for a complicity and civil servants, their signaling that they might stop working in relation to arms straight. so the more washington feels pressure from its friends that it's policy on israel is becoming a liability. the more likely i think that we're gonna see a movement in the right direction for most of them, because right now they just want it better management of things better optics. but nobody's talking and good. the gideon picking up that that line about justice and international justice. when you look at the new measures that you were talking about about when a guy which is wrote says it's going to introduce no sign that they've done any of them yet. but the reopening of the air is crossing in the north of gaza. and i put this with this, mentioning in these write the statement, the temporary use of the poor to bash dog that's about 35 kilometers from gaza, about 30 minutes drive to bring in aid. these are things that israel and prime

minister netanyahu quotable ordered at any single point over the last 6 months. is it in your view, a crime that he did not owe is anybody i mean, the sort of declare the vision is a lot of it storms you had so many expressions by so many senior ministers, including bigger stuff besides naming to the people cas option stock shows a steve the punishment of it is the impression from us. that's the strategy. and by the finish is called the game in the initial no, those are very serious nations of a finish and no, but hey, what's new? i mean, when be these other funny things initial know, there's really one sidney moving in the us, 56 the use is or did not probably think the national interest bank. any guys

chris, the other thing that the, the us is demanding and nothing yahoo is that he gives is negotiate his bro to authority for the negotiations on the deal on the see spot talks, we understand all guessing underway in the coming hours in colorado involving egypt cut off the us and israel the you see renewed hope there or not really? i mean, nothing. yahoo, how do we prove this? how much leeway he's given the negotiators? ultimately? i think nets and yahoo are set for very long time and i think he's gonna stick with it. he wants to go into a rough right. he wants to carry out that ground invasion and in his own words, finish off and eliminate destroy. i'm us. and i think he's quite determined to do that, to carry that out, no matter what the cost saw to israel is reputation. or indeed of course, what will happen to the 1000000 in the hall palestinians who have crammed into and into rafa. it's quite extraordinary. now the united states has to do

a lot more than say to mentioned yahoo that he has to change the, the re meant for the negotiators. it has to get serious. i think also just like to bring his back to europe. i think of europe can actually come together with a more united position than it is. and i to the mess and yahoo will have to take service the up to now hasn't to because it's been divided, but a show, a strength from europe. it is all through israel's largest trading partner. it is right next door that will have an impact. yes. not as much as the united states, but it shouldn't be underestimated. no, i'm on that point. i spoke a few days ago for our talk to out, is there a program with federal sanchez, the spanish prime minister. he's written to the or ping commission, so you may need to re examine that whole relationship with his route and there's lots of talk about as involved as. but as chris said, it's the us in terms of the weapons, the defense industry really matches. how important do you think this latter is alexa from studies 7, members of congress saying,

saying that israel should not get any more weapons right now from the us. i think it's quite important then, especially when you look at who signed that letter when you know that someone like nancy pelosi, who just a few weeks ago accused pro palestine an anti war protesters of working for russian for china. and for, you know, had all sorts of unfounded crazy allegations to, to lash out at them. but there is a shift and it's becoming untenable for american politicians, especially the, in the democratic party to kind of keep having israel no matter what is in light of all of those policies. but i want to come back to europe. i agree that it's important for europe to show a united front. i don't think that it's entirely possible because germany has shown that he is not really willing to budget. wants to be complicit all the way. it's

going to face charges at the international court of justice in 2 days for a complicity in genocide because it's so intransigent in its position. but the americans can't also tolerate being the last country standing in complicity with genocide. so the more the europeans pressure, the more the european countries tell their american allies, we can't do this anymore. this is an untenable policy that cannot be defended. i think the more you'll see a willingness in the white house that is also facing domestic problems and, and grin prospects and in elections, to move and pressure israel to end this war to stop the killing. because it, quite frankly, it, it's, it's a, it's a very difficult sell for, for anybody right now to say that what is happening is justifiable. gideon, how much of a problem all the recent development. so the last couple of days for prime minister

netanyahu, because remember, he has promised these riley people that will be a total victory. he said that a rough are offensive. we'll go ahead. what type of the us as a now he's got these new to moms from the us. yes, he's got his right way members of these calculations so he must fulfill those promises. how much of a dilemma was in is the name of it that won't exist, or it's about dates. because by the end of the day, he depends on the process in his quotation. and as long as he has his maturity, even though the americans, they will be in skin, say, well the say, find the d e whole know if there is a majority in the bottom it through the test. now the biggest enemy of bringing these terrible government into each other because the course we showed that they were using these and doas ford f for the w h. so uh,

his focus most of that, it probably be that such been forms being they don't understand that speaking together. it's is the, the only alternate. and therefore, the don't be surprised if you will be able to do, you know, even though, domestically and internationally, that most people really sweet on your elections square in front of you government. but it's literally just a story. this policy is what i don't expect too much from that. the piece. okay, no, i'd like the last question to you, and it's a somewhat difficult question to ask of to 6 months and about 33000 probably many more deaths. but all you would tool is the policy and you know, on the panel today a tool hopeful given where we sit now. you know, james, it's so difficult to find hope these days this has been

a soul crushing 6 months where much of the faith in humanity has been lost for palestinians. but i don't think that palestinians have a choice. but to search for that hope. because, you know, we cannot, i think, believe that were destined for all of these atrocities. this is not a destiny. anybody can accept and a lot of solace if not whole, is found in the global solidarity movement that is growing and becoming louder. and one has to believe that it will lead somewhere that it will bring about an end to the slaughter. and maybe even bring us closer to justice. sikes very much and thanks to all guess today, know they get in. lovey, on cristo, we have teams on the ground and gaza covering all the developments. and you can find detailed articles and analysis to on our website, which is there a dot com. if you have comments on today's program, we want to hear from you go to our facebook page, that's facebook dot com,
