5:02 am
a direct pass to an unprecedented escalation in the region. so the us house of representatives, after months of gridlock, has finally passed the a deal to ukraine. $61000000000.00. now all amendments and there were some rather creative amendments that were proposed. all the amendments to the bill were rejected and the bill passed. now it's been passed with the intent to rebuild arsenals. there was $95000000000.00 in total that was given for $4.00 and $8.00 is they separated. the ukraine aid, the taiwan aid and the aid israel. mike johnson, who became the republican speaker of the house of representatives, had pledged, unlike his predecessor that he would not bring this bill up. you would not bring it to about. but he changed his mind. and i guess on the terms that this was alone, he was okay to go along with it not. busy democrats voted against the bill and, but the majority of republican congress members did. that's quite a divide when it came to grant. and there was a lot of outrage from,
5:03 am
from republican members of congress. they felt that this was not in the united states entry is now leading. the charge was marjorie taylor green, the representative of georgia, and she was seconded by many members of her party. rather intense speeches were given prior to the voting. you see the united states tax payer has already sent $113000000000.00 to ukraine. and a lot of that money is unaccounted for. you claim is not a member of nato. but the most important thing due here in washington dc, is all we have to spend. americans harder and tax dollars over to you, a crane, and keep the money going to continue to murder ukrainians. wipe out an entire generation of ukrainian men, 2 and a half years into this war. we still don't know what success looks like. is it crimea? is it all of the don't boss is a hold what you got. we don't know. we just can't afford it. this new spending
5:04 am
$60000000000.00 is designated as emergency spending. mean it go, meaning it goes straight to our national debt. a national debt that grows every single 2nd to the tune of $8000000000.00 every single day. and by the way, while i was speaking, we have added another $5500000.00 to the national debt. now the previous speaker of the house kevin mccarthy was ousted when he made what man described as a secret or backroom deal to try and go forward with funding for ukraine. and now thomas massey and marjorie taylor green to outspoken republicans who opposed a due grand say they want the same thing to happen to mike johnson does a they say he was replaced that he replaced kevin mccarthy and was brought into office to oppose this kind of deal, he made this kind of deal and they want him, alice did. so we shall see what happens next. i'm concerned that the speakers gotta
5:05 am
deal with the democrats of fun for mores rather than to secure a border. how did a bill that was intended for veterans that came out of the house become a bill that may bring us to the brink of war, at least 3 places on the globe by sending a 100. ready dollars to military contractors, how if you creating officials reacted to the bill being passed, the ukrainian president has already responded in kind with great thanks. he personally bank speaker of the house mike johnson for making the deal that he promised not to make. we add a message from zelinski that might have online, but let's also recall a statement made by the ukranian president a few days prior to what i but we suggest that this is not a secure leticia. then this is politics. and to be honest, it is a shameful, the world is just a shameful democracy for everyone who owns it, talks about democracy. well, if congress takes and divides the sites of tool that has happened into his rod and you credit and parts,
5:06 am
that means this is an election issue in the united states. now 23200000000 of the a will be used to restock ukrainian weaponry. 11.3000000000 of the aid will be provided for the training of ukrainian troops by the united states. and $61000000000.00 in total has been allocated by the us congress to provide to ukraine to continue the conflicts. at this point. there's a lot of anger on the republican side. there's a lot of anger on the democratic side that took so long and it appears american politics is much more polarized than it has been in quite some time. very big disagreements about u. s. foreign policy and how american taxpayer money ought to be spent. though all democrats voted for ukraine age, they also faced divisions as some of the lawmakers voted against aid to israel and
5:07 am
expressed anger over the bill. all of us have seen the tragedy of gaza. we have seen how prime minister netanyahu, whose government has used american weapons to kill indiscriminately, to force famine over 25000 women and children dead. tens of thousands of missiles and bombs levied on innocent civilians. and when we see it, we have to decide what we're going to do about it. are we going to participate in that carnage or not? i choose not to prime minister netanyahu has been reckless, as his actions have not led to the release of the remaining hostages. he's ignored the police of the families of hostages. he's ignore the police or the president of the united states. he's ignored his own people now who doesn't support the united states position of a 2 state solution for peace. he doesn't respect urges now to invade rafa. he
5:08 am
disputes with the us and age groups upset about famine checking over in gaza and he launched attack and i ran after the white house told him not to if he's not listening to us on matters of international security, how can he be trusted with more offensive weapons enough is enough for the low side. numerous says it is us policy to push for complex around the world in this is not just a or giving you know, because some have but rather to wage wars model yours and, and well brothers, old on around do. one of these are the policies of the united states, the or the time that they trade problems all over the world and the out of strange ways. these um, parts of the world to engage in wars and what gives you more and more of is f on the humans. the rest of the are still taking action the same
5:09 am
with the concern and it's for stuff on saturday on there. but the, i'm not taking any kinds of measures your stuff described before as the catalyst of your, your wanted, the john big you know, on is usually like nations, but also they can stop the issue, jump with the account, michael. he can eliminate some of the agreements where these rise the can do is if the why really celia, in the study this genocide goes on, i guess a n g a. so far they are to do that. and i do believe that the old colonialism with them that and you belong in many gods. and the civilians have been subjected to brutal abuse, allegedly including sexual violence and torture while and is rarely military detention. that's according to a new report from the un refugee agency for palestine,
5:10 am
which has released some harrowing testimonies of survivors. detainees reported ill treatment during the different stages of the detention release. detainees included men and women, children, older persons, persons with disabilities, and the injured in sick, all of whom were subjected to similar forms of ill treatment. the message of ill treatment reported by dead tiny ease included physical beatings, threats of physical hum, insults and humiliation. such as being made to act like animals or getting your engaged on use of loud music. a noise deep provision of water, food, sleep, and toilets. denial of the right to pray and prolonged use of tightly locked 10 cups causing open wounds and friction injuries. the report says more than 1500, the detainees were documented as released to the camera abo sullivan crossing point with israel. that includes $43.00 children and $84.00 women detain
5:11 am
a said all their items were confiscated, including documents and money, and generally not returned. the head of the palestinian commission on prisoners branded the situation catastrophic in the, in the crimes being committed by the occupation against our people are unprecedented. and so are the ones against our prisoners. we're dealing with a new version of the occupying state, whether it's new vision and strategies. this means that we're facing arrow struggled with this occupation. this state that is led by a group of terrors, fascist horror. not ashamed or afraid of anyone in their legislation, officers of crimes, with in a form of killing destruction, bombing certification and speech, or what's the prisoner's face? inside the occupations present salma, they made me sit on something like a hot metal so you can have felt like fire have burns. the soldiers hit me with their shoes and my chest and use something like a metal stick that had a small nail on the side. they asked us to drink from the toilet and made the docks attack us. there were people who were detained and killed. maybe 9 of them,
5:12 am
one of them died after they put the electric stick up his anus. he got so sick with a warms coming out of his body. and then he died. the us, the soldiers displayed on me saying she's a, she's from gaza. they would bid and us as we moved and saying they would put 5 owners sensitive parts. they pulled us beat us. they took us into boss to the demon present of to 5 base. and male soldiers took off or had jobs, and they pinched us and touched all bodies, including our breasts. we were blindfolded and we were feeling them touching us, pushing our hats to the bus. we started to squeeze together to try to protect ourselves from detection. they said they told the soldiers to take all their shoes and slip or spaces with them. a hospital in the southern most guys in the city of rafa is now treating palestinians released by the is really defense forces. children are among those with parents signs of torture, a group of 150 detainees, return the guys on monday through the cam salaam of crossing with israel. they've
5:13 am
been speaking out about the alleged abuse. they suffered at the hands of the ideas, the inside the prison. my legs got infected and i asked to be hospitalized. but these realities were stalling. finally, my legs swelled up a lot and turned to blue. i underwent 2 surgeries to clean up my leg, but to no avail. at cheap on medical center, they said my leg must be amputated because my life was in danger. i was treated very badly all the time. i spent 50 days there, but it felt like 50 years whitfield has these childs made to be shot at in prison and tortured what ford has. he made these unarmed, and he isn't a member of mazda or is lemme just had felt seen and children were denied leaving their child to. where are the human rights organizations? on all way to preexisting we were beaten and tortured inside the prison,
5:14 am
were also tortured with will not allow to speak or move. otherwise they punished us by spraying us with gas or releasing dogs on us every 3 days they would release the dogs out of the prison. this beats us costly and randomly were leaving and how during the 50 days we spent in prison all the prisoners wants it to be released. they wanted either to be does all release but never to stay in prison or ron's retaliatory strike on israel left. most states indifferent, but despite the fact that retaliation did not cause any civilian casualties. unlike the as rarely striking to ron's consul earlier, several countries quickly condemned to runs actions, including the british prime minister, as we have condemned your wrongs. reckless and dangerous biology is ms. laws against is right on site today and is wrong, absolutely has the right to self defense. but as i said, the problem is that netanyahu, when i spoke to him last week and more generally, significant escalation is not in anyone's interest. what we want to see is called a heads profile,
5:15 am
across the region from was from the previous prime minister when it comes to around which how the $83.00 strikes, which cause no casualties. but when it comes to is also tack on the writing and culture in damascus, which 16 were killed, stony silence total and 5 hundreds of drugs that can be solved in response to the attack on its diplomatic mission. with many side note on has the right to defend itself, turning the words of the west when it comes to israel, back against them. but just by giving free days notice of the impending attack, which the united states denies the collective west as lined up to condemn or on the attack on these really territory the run launched tonight is um, justifiable and highly irresponsible. canada unequivocally condemned. it runs airborne attacks against israel, and the iranian regime is disregard for peace and stability in the region. i condemn in the strongest terms the unprecedented attack launched by a round against israel, which threatens to destabilize the region. but the reaction from persons on
5:16 am
elective foreign minister, no david cameron, has led to charges of hypocrisy in an exchange, restarting use, or pull to kill you poorly. the former prime minister described arrives at the tax . i've reckless. while conceding the prison would respond with strong action, if one of his own contracts was attacked with britain j, the hostile nation flattened one of the outcome, students. well, we would take, we would take the survey stroll actually, and around would say that that's what that is. but what made it, as i said, was a massive attack. so the right to respond felt the reaction is what we have. so what i'm saying now, how does it to the attacks they can i, it was on a very large scale, much bigger than the people excited to respond. what countries have a right to respond when they feel they've suffered an aggression of course they do, but look at the scale that response. have those weapons not been shown that on, but that is one range that could have been sizes of casualties including southern and gosh,
5:17 am
he even went to israel to express his sort of dorothy with prime minister benjamin netanyahu. the situation is very concerning. it's right to show solidarity with israel. it's right to have made of use clear about what should happen next. but it's clear that these rate is all may see a decision to act. we hope they do. so the ways it does as little to escalate this as possible and in a way that, as i said yesterday is, is small off is whether it's tough concern. he may be what he says as well as actions. so escalating tensions in the region. in fact, up until now around his showed great restraint despite it as well as fascinating nuclear scientists inside the country allegedly eating the us and it targets it kidding, which at no cost. i'm sitting tamani watching drunk strikes, some faces in the code. this time region of iraq, i'm frequent attacks against variety and forces in syria. by contrast, britain himself has responded harshly,
5:18 am
often without justification or explanation. the country going strikes against the who sees in the admin. in response to the goods actions guys, ships in the red sea, which they said was because a, b is radio and this voltage, gulzar breast and also by washington in february, when the 85 targets was struck with the u. s. claimed when linked to the revolution, he called coal designate to the foreign terrorist organization in 2019 the white house claim. it was a students do in a taco to us space on the board would say, reward jordan kidding. 3 soldiers, which it blamed on around on prison, was happy to agree the you can't. and you, as i'll set foster lice when comment on that to ations. but we support the right to respond to attacks who have long condemned to rhonda stabilizing activities throughout the region. including its political, financial, and nature support to a number of minutes in groups or some type of procedures. nothing you back in 2018, ignore co ordinated s. likes to guide syria,
5:19 am
claiming without the evidence. it was necessary to further prevent the use of chemical weapons in the country. so need your response, which is what is the escalated tensions in the region. so then prime minister to reuse of my foster, just if i have options in the house of commons, deny us pressure. so we have not done this because president trump asked us to do so. we have done that because we believed it was the right thing to do. and we all know, washington has received a pump. it support because the, as well as it filed to speak, counts as well. strike on the right in the, an embassy in damascus, or taking a very different approach to it could, it was re, some action, i guess, the mexican embassy. you're pretty quick into, you know, condemning the, you know, the invasion of the mexican embassy and in an act that was a very clear, well established, m z. not very familiar with the what the, this is something that is taking a little bit more time when you guys are in that incident. a desktop,
5:20 am
a question for britain. i'm washington. i able to strike it will without any consequences. well as well. has the right to defend itself as any cost. but for a rob, it's a case of do as i say, not as i do. in the new episode of worlds apart, host x on a bike, i spoke to over a cost of can us that member of the head us to all party about israel strategy in the stand off with a ron, you can watch the full interview on our 2 throughout the day, but here is a quick preview. he was against the violation of the side is limited by you. i'm just like i was against the violation of celia, lebanese and you know, so where did you buy? he's right. and the but i think the on, so i think the only way to stop the blog ship is by you recognizing and respecting this over any deal organizations about this fascist or fledged proxies.
5:21 am
governmental connect on y'alls is not following or does not care. and he's not acting up on the interest of the people in the same but the bottom of the interest, middle interest, often with them. yeah. the world's attention was on what's going on and gaza. but with this latest farmers between israel and iran, that's no longer seems like like a number one priority intuition or a community, especially the united states and the will being you and you were really interested in the well being with the palestinians in the very lives of the but a scene is in gaza. that's terrible. assault was over out. months ago. there's no dogs did the money. police and the government's anthony. i was a but government wants to bill. so he's, by that you felt think the bench and even if it was in my know what form the ongoing, a did
