4:03 pm
option. he didn't date had exactly what view as we prefer to say, but we have heard in the past the us saying a more targeted approach would be better to try to stop and even further humanitarian catastrophe. as we know more than 1000000 people now sheltering in that rafa city, i'm so you know, you know, a very important conversation given the timing of and just how close the cx 5 d a look. so potentially looks to be getting to that was sent me the main topic, but thinking also a commanding israel for the slow ramping off of humanitarian assistance that they've allowed into gaza. but saying that more needs to be done now, but you can also make the families of some of the hostages. what did he tell them? well you mentioned that this is the 7th visit by on sunday break into the region since october 7 is also the 7th time he's met with family members of the hostages.
4:04 pm
he does that every time he comes to town. uh, you know, what, what is he able to, to tell them that can come put them it it's, you know, it really doesn't bear thinking, but of course he tries to pass on the hope gives them some kind of hope. he told them that the us stand by the hosted hostage families that they are doing everything that they can, that they want stall until every man, woman civilian sold. a young old is returned, you know, but one gentleman who does have some family in garza also spoke after the meeting to the price. and he said that lincoln was, was very frank with them. very honest. and he said that, you know, thinking mentioned that there's not a hell of a lot of pressure that they can put on a deal one way or the other. so, you know, just trying to give one little hope to the hostage families that he can do that because bonded to rebecca register reporting from jerusalem. thank you. in new york city, police say they have cleared pro palestinian protest is from the building on the
4:05 pm
campus of columbia university bringing a day long stand off to an end. the rate came at the request of the universe, the president of the students defied and automates him. to back down all be expelled. this is the moment for his officers and dried go. preached columbia university's hamilton hold because it says it had no choice but to authorize the read. to restore safety and order pro palestinian students had taken over the building for more than 24 hours. had body gifted themselves inside and hung the banner renaming the building, hands holding up for a 6 year old by letting them go. gillian, gaza,
4:06 pm
dozens of those board as those i'd be interested yet they remain defined on the quoted amount of these 2 groups. this will columbia, to withdraw with investment funds from companies supporting israel as government. and i'm this the for students and faculty disciplined over the broad test the i'm adjacent to this. so i feel like it's especially important for me to express my concern about palestinian lives and suffering. because i kind of critically stand against the ideas that jewish people can not be pro palestine. i. i think the design isn't like insights on anti zionism and anti semitism are not the same thing. and human life deserves to be protected. the board is old, obese expansion for vandalism, and broken access to the building. these pictures are used by the universities,
4:07 pm
both person to damage to the occupied building. the tense, bullets, action, columbia comes exactly 56 years offer. officers stepped into the hamilton hollow to our export as occupying the building in 1968 back then they had taken over the whole and other campus buildings to protest racism. and the vietnam or columbia university has requested police presence under may. 17 that's duties of the university's graduation ceremony. the student groups vowed to continue the process despite the track down. meanwhile, valez is also broken as on campus at the university of california los angeles, where account to protest is half attacked, demonstrate to supporting palestinians that been confrontations that they pro
4:08 pm
palestinian compound. police have responded to these. you'll see a chance loose coal for support. university has also increased security in the area colleges around the u. s. has been struggling to contain similar protests on dozens of campuses. a f. a more on that been all joined by robert cohen is a professor of social studies education at new york university and n y u. a professor, you called this current wave of protest, the biggest student movement of the 21st century in the us. what spock this concern about the escalation of the war and gaza and the use of the american military age for this. as for the war and the depths of civilians, i think, particularly with social media, students have found out about this very quickly. and they're very concerned about the use of american military aid for, for bombing and killing of civilians. it's,
4:09 pm
you know, there's images of children that are dying, and i think that's the main reason why this, this burst out. and then the administration's response was initially to non violent protests, you know, slipping down and, and getting pressure from congress and donors on the ministrations of colleges to shut these down. that's like the initial columbia arrest the for the building occupation that, that was a really help to publicize this on to bring the city further, the mention of students across the country. and this has been spreading across the country like wildfire. now that all was, and injustices and civilian casualties and several places around the world. some of these what was being a fault with us and other western weapons and some of them a long lost and why is it that the current conflict in gaza and spies such outrage among us students as well? i think it's because of the, you know, the fact that so many civilians have been dying and it's very been very much out there on the, in the news media and,
4:10 pm
and social media. i think that feeling of and by the way, also remember there was a sort of a smaller pro palestinian cell every move that the sense for just the palestine has been on college campus since since the 19 ninety's. it didn't really get much traction beyond a small group. what really, i'm really you have had it explode. was this more and, and the civilian deaths in a way you could say and apparel away to the sixty's where, you know, bull connor the races police here when he, when he attacked the m. okay. in the, the end of where they erased that protest in birmingham, you know, with police dogs and fire hoses like the nothing yahoo is kind of that kind of figure in terms of people's public perception. and i think that the best organizer that these. ready the test, the pad is benjamin netanyahu inadvertently. so, but that's not a list. now that also happen, i just submitted on the totals and expressions of solidarity with extra missed organizations. should that be boring? oh yeah, i think it's wearing and i think people who engage in such
4:11 pm
a bigoted behaviors should be held accountable. but there has been a kind of an attempt to smear the entire movement. that is to say that all these protest or are hateful and a things i submit again, and that's just not true. i mean here, then while you are, the protesters were arrested non for non bentley occupying a plaza in front of the of the business school. i had just had their passover seder when the rest were happening. so to say that there, you know, as i symmetric and yet they have jewish student activism. they can't hear, they're having a say there is a bit, you know, it's, it's just doesn't add up. and that's not that, and i, there has been a problem that i semitism, but i think that's more of a kind of fringe piece of this that you know, needs. and again, any of those ask and slurs as landers and certainly physical thoughts of people should be held accountable. and, and, you know, with due process of, punish difficulty of that. but i think the attempt to people in congress and donors to say these protests don't have to be either non violent and not disruptive,
4:12 pm
have to be suppressed. that's what kind of bizarre tearing response. and i think using the have a semitism issue in a way that's, that's really not accurate. and that's just way of sort of we suppressing something that we don't like and on the university campus, where are you supposed to have the free exchange of ideas? that's a really bad model, and one turn that's happened is, you know, you have the speaker of the house and of you. your call is when to come with the columbia university, with the delegation of congressman sent congress. but the commercial representative saying, the president, the columbia should resign, is as if she had been tough enough. and, and so they didn't even though they rested over a 100 demonstrators. and so what you get here is a, a cycle of escalation. and that's how you got what i think was a really unwise and really trying to take over the ministration, building of damage university property that wasn't happening initially. and i think the other thing i wanna say university is one of the problems is they're not government democratically. we may not, the university may not and probably won't want to divest their holdings the connections israel. but you should have
4:13 pm
a democratic process where you can even the one private university students are not on the board of trustees. they get to make their case. they get to be heard even at the trustees, or can say no there at least get a here and a brown university. that method was used and the protest ended, in other words, the university and say what the best they just said. ok, you know, do a presentation of it will listen to you and will decide. so there is a way to de escalate this. and unfortunately, that didn't happen to columbia because i think a very inexperience a president who didn't really know how to handle these protests. brother come that professor social studies education at n y u in new york. thank you very much. you're welcome. have a bunch of canyon now with sorry to say at least 169 people have been killed and more than 190000, displaced by catastrophic flooding. a differential reins that hit the country. this year i've been cold. the most intense in recent memory use,

. we have also seen community members coming in with food and clothes donation. and the most shocking thing has been that the kids who are roaming around the shelter, not even know the magnitude of what could have just the sheets. the whole leading to that, that's now is we've seen any revolt, a kidney as president, has asked people to leave the vulnerable areas. although getting the help of from the government in the evaluation process that they need. so the president give a 48 hour i to made some of that expires in the next 24 hours after that police and our community to walk as will be helping people move to higher grounds by the president also promised that they will buy land and help resettle these people who will be moved from that area as we to flood prone so that they can avoid or about such crisis in the future. now when the world has received,
