1:19 pm
at these pictures released by the idf today. you see white sheets with a mesmessages written on those sheets. they were written with left over food according to the idf the messages are sos and help. three hostages you see that they read idf chief of staff says the three men took their shirts off to show troops they did not have explosives. they were also waving a white flag but in the confusion and panic of war idf soldiers shot and killed them. moments ago this is not how soldiers are trained to react with hostages or palestinians. grix it is to gazans with eight wawhite flag coming out to surrender, would be shoot at them? absolutely not, absolutely not that is not the idf. >> arthel, look at this today the idf also announced and found the largest hamas tunnel yet in gaza. this tunnel is big enough to drive a car through. it is two and a half miles long
1:20 pm
and more than that just a couple hundred yards away from israel's border per the project to build the tunnel was led by hamas leader brother muhammad. meanwhile as you mention the management crisis in gaza continues to worsen roughly 90% of palestinians are displaced from their homes. many of them are starving. you see their reaction to an aide delivery truck arriving in the gaza strip today they're not even waiting for her to stop there just hopping right on top and granted what they can prove those advocating for another humanitarian cease-fire there is more hope tonight. egyptian security officials report both israel and hamas are willing to negotiate another possible deal although there are still significant obstacles. there is no indication another deal is closed. we will send it back to you. arthel: i'll take it back here at nate foy in jerusalem, thank you nay. >> there is more in the red sea u.s. navy destroyer shot down 14 iranian backed houthis drones
1:21 pm
yesterday as those rebels keep disrupting vital international shipping routes there. the recent attacks come as defense secretary lloyd austin has arrived in the middle east he will stop at israel tomorrow. lucas thomason live at the white house with a very latest on what the administration could be planning. >> era, officials say parts of the red sea look like a parking lot right now or of the top five shipping companies in the world have suspended operations there. some people want to see president biden approve the pentagon's plans to strike back. >> a traffic in the red sea has gotten so dangerous with this escalation by the houthis against our u.s. navy ships were trying to defend all of the maritime traffic that it is time to do something more. >> uss carty shot down 14 drones yesterday in the red sea the pentagon has dispatched three more missile destroyers to the region it's going to take some time for them to get on station the sixth fleet said the u.s.
1:22 pm
sullivans entered today to join two other destroyers there. now some history, over 20 years ago the uss cole was bombed while refueling and yemen the soul of it was al qaeda's first target months of prayer that boat sank in the harbor before that attack could be carried out. back to today those three destroyers have to transit and through the suez canal and into the red sea there been 20 attacks against international shipping in recent weeks. the u.s. hasn't yet to launch any retaliatory strikes f. fifty-five commercial vessels have made the decision to go around and sail around the african continent to avoid the suez canal which cost about half a million dollars in transit nearly 30 million-dollar loss for egypt so far because on average about 50 -- 90 ships go through the canal hj right now traffic is at a halt in the red sea as i mentioned defense secretary lloyd austin stopped in kuwait to pay his respect officials. he is now headed to bahrain he has just arrived home to the u.s. navy's fifth fleet and he
1:23 pm
is on to israel and qatar. tomorrow he's expected to announce a task force to protect the shipping and the red sea russian president vladimir putin is likely loving this disruption to the commerce. >> are also reports that is what putin would like to see happen. have the united states gets bogged down in the red sea. that means we get distracted but to answer your question clearly u.s. forces are killed you are going to get a big big response from the united states. >> aircraft carrier uss eisenhower is now on station off the coast of yemen quick launch of super hornets if the order does have destroyers in the region that could launch tomahawk cruise missiles into yemen" in the uss mason which you mentioned lodge tom hudson to yemen back in 2016. eric: we mentioned this before we have kind of been here before back in the 1980s during the
1:24 pm
tanker war is president ronald reagan took decisive action against iran. reflect merchant cargo ships and iranian mind exploded on one of our ships 10 sailors were severely injured in that. the president took out half of iran's navy. to be seen the appetite for that at the white house? are they mindful of the tanker wars and what the reagan administration successfully did back then? >> eric officials tell me nothing is imminent yet more than likely tomorrow when lloyd austin makes his announcement about the escorts in the red sea perhaps administration will give that a try first but certainly u.s. central command is in charge of u.s. forces in the middle east has plans to strike back there waiting on the orders from president biden. quicksort lucas at the white house is always good to see you. thank you. >> eric, the houthis attacks are threatening the global supply chain. shipping joins r giants redirecs
1:25 pm
to avoid the suez canal. is issuing this statement in part that says we are deeply concerned about the highly escalated security situation on the southern red sea and gulf of eden. the recent attacks on commercial vessels in the area are a lime lightning and pose a significant threat to the safety and security of seafarers. diverting those shipments comes at a cost of the world. over $9 billion with of goods shipped to the suez canal and a fiscal year 2023 let's bring in jamil jaffer is the founder executive director of the natnational security institute. so first of all what do you make of the timing of the red sea attacks? how should the u.s. handle and stop them? >> there is no doubt as a lucas and eric were just discussing this is a major challenge to international shipping. the u.s. has got to respondents in u.s. ships they are in the red sea shooting down these drones parachuting on the crews
1:26 pm
missiles tankers have been attacked a least one is been taken into port and captured. this is obviously a m major thrt you see people diverting the resources around that area down south past the cape of good hope in africa. that's going to be a huge disruption in the u.s. has got to take action cannot be actionn against the houthis rebels themselves it's got to be against the iranian backers who are creating the challenge of the red sea. if fas i was going to say houthis is behind the attacks and ironic is behind the houthis. what do you do to stop iran so that you can stop the houthis? next we were time but this idea of reflecting tankers as we did in the persian gulf reflect the shipping you might escort those ships provide overwatch but beyond that you've got to really go after the rebels themselves the houthis and yemen. that is been a challenge but you have to go off after the iranian backers. president trump went after soleimani when americans were killed boasting growing attacks
1:27 pm
in iraq and syria against american soldiers again almost 80 in the last month and half two months alone yo you treat attacks on americans, american ships in the red sea commercial shipping all but direct action by the white house. arthel: are you saying it's time for the u.s. to fight another iranian leader and assassinate that person? >> with its iranian leadership firm vessels in the persian gulf or the houthis vessels of the transit point to places i write to shipping the capabilities. the houthis are not of open these drones on there on the not developing the crews missiles on their own the their coming bothh iranian money and ironic weaponry themselves. that's where the chokepoint is at the end of the day when who's behind this it is the supreme leader and whispers that led. >> money does not stop them,
1:28 pm
action stops them. >> the challenges to date in iraq and syria the pictures are doing a good job of shooting down the drone and stop in the attacks many successful. at the end of the day when americans are getting injured and emergent ships are being threatened and commercial shipping has been halted, more direct action is critical. listen to democratic center commented about this on abc this week but listen. cooksey menstruation has been smart and how it has responded to those attacks. but clearly the risk of an american being killed as high. big response from the united states the risk of an american being killed in the process is high. how can you prevent that from
1:29 pm
happening? >> you can't of the problem is we shouldn't have to wait until the americans go for that ministry should to respond. dozens of soldiers have been injured by a running back attacks in iraq and syria just in the last month at half alone. now we have seen u.s. commercian commercials u.s. and naval vessels targeted by trade eights drones that is enough. that should require a response and offense of military response for the only kind of response on respect is time for their ministration to act. it's good to come together and protect the shipping but direct action answer iran is needed now. >> between the hamas terror attack on israel and now a war between israel and hamas rushers were on ukraine the political biden d.c. i keep hearing eric and other guests bring up the 80's this is not the 80s this is a new set of circumstances. how do you handle this today? >> that is exactly it.
1:30 pm
we'll tease us divide it we were seeing as the world on fire this is what happened when america is not out there lydia happens her and her allies don't think were going to be there for them and hour adversaries are not afraid of us. we need to support our allies in ukraine are friends in ukraine are allies in the gulf and protect those nations. that protects america. at the end of the day when we are spending meant to fight these fights it's not because we are not defending america's interest we are it's better to fight the adversary overseas and to face them here. we have these with its russian ukraine or a ronald of the gulf these attacks will end up at home though because a smart caus and treasure then now to take those capabilities out today breed that is why these deals are so important and it's so important to back our allies to make sure our adversaries notable fight against them if necessary. if i bring the fight to them do not let them bring it to us. i am happy to see you this is subject just gives me a headache.
1:31 pm

1:36 pm
gripped the university and college campuses is taking on the students. now human rights nonprofit is suing uc barkley for what it claims is that universally not doing enough to protect the jewish students a statement from the plaintiff in the lawsuit that's the brandeis center reads in part quote uc barkley jewish students shared in the complaint to the school does so little to protect the jewish students and fills us of the school is condoning anti-semitism. founder of the brandeis center for human rights under law and joins us now. ken, good to see a growing fear lawsuit it is stunning some of these things jewish students are excluded from organizations. not like to participate in other things. how bad is it on campus? >> it's good to be with you. it is bad. we are hearing from many, many students and it started with law students but then business students and undergraduate students. some are afraid to go out. they are afraid to go to lectures. they do not want to go to class.
1:37 pm
they are aware of the physical assaults. some have been threatened. some have gotten hate mail saying they should be gassed or killed. this is a situation that should not happen anywhere in the world let alone at an american university that hasn't prided itself on its adherence to rights, free speech and civil rights. it is a terrible situation for many, many of the jewish students on this campus. eric: is barkley doing enough and colleges and universities across the country doing enough to try to address this? >> absolutely not. we have been concerned about barkley for well over a year. was over a year ago at approximately nine's student groups at the law school issued statements changes to their constitutions and bylaws that said zionists could not participate as speakers before their groups.
1:38 pm
barkley has been aware for over a year at this discriminatory action and their failure to address that problem last year has essentially sent a green light to anti-semites that the university will simply not address even very serious violations of the university's own rules. either universities also have problems this is become a nash national situation of barkley is extremely bad but we are worried about a lot of campuses around the country including some excellent ones because you see what happened with princeton, harvard, mit and university of pennsylvania of course in the news. there's a lawsuit called palestinian 101. they talk about jewish students as being a zionists. can you explain that? >> that is a program that certain law students are forced to take it want to have
1:39 pm
leadership positions in the law school groups which is to say if you are a jewish students for whom zionism is an intricate part of your jewish identity. if you want to have a leadership role you have to sit through an anti- zionist indoctrination which basically signals to you that you are a second-class citizen and that you do not fully belong there. this is just one of many problems of the law school that that university has been aware for quite some time and has been unwilling or unable to address >> as you know the university says it's all protected by the first amendment let me read you part of the statement to fox news from uc barkley it says quote uc barkley believes the claims on the lawsuit are not consistent with the first amendment of the constitution but the facts of what's actually actually happening on campus university has long been committed to confronting anti-semitism and supporting the needs of its students, faculty,
1:40 pm
and staff or the public university barkley to some of the legal right to stop demonstrations or expression many would consider to be offensive but are protected by the constitution of the united states. do you by that? does not hold water fuel and enough of an explanation to satisfy was going on? >> us not just a legally wrong that's morally repugnant. you have just heard in a clip from one of the barkley business school students about two physical assaults. one of them was beaten on the head with a metal water bottle there is no provision of the first amendment or any part of the constitution that gives anyone a right to assault jewish students or hit them in the head with a metal water bottle. what we have that it many of the universities like barkley has not one but 21st amendments ththere's an anti-semites first amendment which provides remarkable protection. it is the superman hype
1:41 pm
constitutional provisions you can say or do virtually anything to jewish students even punch them in the face or hit them over the head and the university will claim is protected by the first amendment. but then there is everyone else's first amendments which are issmall and cringing it's hy even a clark kent a first amendments. that is the one that if you want to say anything else that is even a little bit controversial for instance anything that's masked as conservativism you will have virtually no protection at all. eric: 's are the more lawsuits to come this issue is disturbing and not going away ken marcus at the brandeis center of human rights under the law thank you and we will keep up with the progress of that suit. take care. pig looks good to be with you. >> are right, starting today tens of thousands of u.s. soldiers in training are heading home for the holidays. many of them expected to travel through the atlanta airport military leader said this break

1:49 pm
a lot of people thought hungry it would block the idea of open session talks with ukraine, but they didn't sp. they did however block the money even if the eu releases money to hungary for their going to come back in january try to cut a new deal with hungary to release more funds for hungry and get the hungarians on board. >> every day is like a month over there for those of fighters the soldiers in ukraine fighting this war against russia without additional financial military aid what will happen to ukraine? >> ukraine is going to make it because they are defending their homes, their lives, their territories have incredible resolved. i knew member after year end half of this war they have now developed the most experience a battleofbattle hardened army in. they are going to survive this. the eu will get their act together in january probably get the money there just as i expect the u.s. congress is going to approve that military assistance ukraine as well.
1:50 pm
arthel: that means you don't think the u.s. congress will approve any additional financial age ukraine? >> it is to be seen as part of the package right now i know negotiations are ongoing. u.s. contribution the military contribution is the most critical. it would be good if we helped in the budget as well that's part of the things that are under discussion. the senate has already worked its way through this making sure there's going to be funding for the southern border as well. that will come back to the house and hopefully get voted on early in general as well pick. >> as of the house the big-play specific happens or not. i do have to get to a final point here because we saw president zelenskyy just coming to d.c. he is a strong resilient person. but he seemed to have a bit of desperation. i need this financially needed military aid i need it now you are saying they are resilient the fighters are strong will get through this, which one is it?
1:51 pm
>> unfortunately i think he was mmaybe spun up a little bit fearing congress would not pass the aide. i think he was asked to lobby the congress to see if you get past without funding for the southern border think it was the misuse of president zelenskyy. the reality is the majority of democrats, the majority of republicans continued favoring age ukraine the adjusting to put together package that works politically in the u.s. to get that done. that's not something zelenskyy can help with that something our elected leaders are democrats and republicans in the white house, and congress have to figure out themselves. arthel: just and 20 seconds using president zelenskyy should've made out a military plan? you said it was poor use of his time. >> think president zelenskyy does have a military plan but say it long, hard, struggling one. i think what he did do effectively is make the case ukraine it needs the aide. he cannot weigh in on the domestic politics is something we got to weigh in on ourselves.
1:52 pm
