2:04 pm
to be here. we always find people that will be disruptive. but i'm a citizen of israel. i'm also an american citizen. i'm as a human being. why are we not doing more? it's happening in my name. and it's for the governments to the police to the army. everything possible. insults come stick and fast nazis and from us, the fellow is release. call them, but they continue to try to get the food onto a truck. and back towards casa, by the end of the day, they told us all the trucks had gone through with little damage to them. a victory that's kept move from dw, correspond to rebecca richards, who joins us now from jerusalem. and rebecca, our report suggest fee is really millet tree, isn't doing enough to protect the policy through the west bank. what have you heard about that?

2:06 pm
saying that the, this was simply just giving aid to their enemy law so that they wouldn't want to do everything but they could. and in fact that they were doing the governments works at these randy government was having to allow aid in because of pressure from us and all the allies and they, they would allow to look like they weren't allowing aid. in fact, these protests, as we're doing the job of the governmental, the job governance job full, the, now we're seeing these protests, as you saw there in that report, getting move on, particularly the convoys that have to travel through the westbank thing was set by groups of settlers though it's have not, i'm not taking responsibility for those particular protest is in the west bank, but suddenly seeing an up taking violence or even seeing it on the streets of jerusalem. okay, and we mentioned the pay a bill by the us military and what can you tell us about the age being distributed the as well know very much so saw this tier has been operational since

2:08 pm
distributed. we're getting numbers like 600 trucks a day that needs to be distributed throughout gauze or in order to trying to count . so this humanitarian catastrophe, this unfolding day. and of course, 40 trucks pales in comparison to $600.00. rebecca thank so much. that's the w correspondent, rebecca versus interest when or germany is mocking. 75 years since the country adopted its constitution officially known as the basic little especial ceremony was held earlier with bait husband's fits. cincinnati played by the button for them on the orchestra. germany's president signed by the stine maia hosted the event. he noticed that the basic law was drafted in response to the crimes of nazi germany. by maya said, the document has flourished, and that has become a starting point for other countries that had an authoritarian passed by maya also
