now more than ever the world needs. making a healthier world for you. everyone. this is al jazeera. hello again i'm peter w. watching al-jazeera live from coming up in the next 60 minutes we can reduce suffering use country we can put people back to work we can control getting control this virus. us president joe biden unveiling his plan to revive the u.s. economy battered by the coronavirus pandemic.

historic vote libyan delegates handpicked by the u.n. choose an interim government that will govern until elections in december. widening divides russia expels 3 e.u. diplomats for supporting the opposition leader alexei navalny. gun violence and gang crime palestinian israelis say they're the targets and the police are turning a blind eye. and i'm only a hearty with all of your sports news england's cricket captain hit another century jovial passing $100.00 for the 3rd match in around england in a strong position in the 1st class against india. the from. the u.s. president joe biden has just addressed his efforts to pass a $1.00 trillion dollar covert relief plan saying he will act fast as americans are

reaching a breaking point mr biden is citing the latest jobs report to press for the need to urgently inject the economy with his stimulus plan that reports show the economy remains 10000000 jobs below its pre pandemic levels the senate earlier signed off on the plan it now goes back to the house of representatives for one final vote . too many people nation have already suffered for too long through this pandemic an economic crisis and telling them we don't have the money to alleviate their suffering to get to full employment sooner to vaccinate america after 8 trillion dollars in deficit spending over the past 4 years much of it having gone to the wealthiest people in the country and new true nor necessary we do have the resources to get to full employment sooner we do have the tools to reduce a lot of suffering in this country we just have to choose to use them. so it's time

to act. following that one for us difficult to remember the last time in living memory more than that i guess kimberly a us president spent this much money on stimulating the u.s. economy. yeah it's a bit of a risk and a big gamble because the fear is if it doesn't work if americans kind of hang on to this money as we saw with some of the past rounds of checks that were handed to americans because they're fearful of the future it's not going to work it's not going to inject cash into the economy and the other problem is if the infection rates in the united states remain as they are and businesses can't open up because of health law restrictions well where are people going to spend the money anyway it's a big problem in the solution according to joe biden is to go big and spend money not just handing it over to americans but also in vaccine distribution making sure that the states have what they need making sure that there is the manufacturing

that goes along with it and also making sure that some of those essential services that are so important in various communities across the country whether it's firefighters teachers police officers that all of that can be funded as well so there's a lot in this 1.9 trillion but again it is a risk because the fear is is if it doesn't work if people don't spend money or too much goes too quickly well then the fear is inflation something we've not seen in a generation and also there's a fear that the american dollar will be devalued and so back could have enormous ramifications the united states in other words some major unintended consequences what was your reading kimberly of the overall tone of his speech because he seems to have a very firm grasp on i know what i'm doing you got to let me do it i'm going to go big because there's no point going small so he hasn't left himself any place else to go he used the word food dozens and dozens of times it was

a little bit like being spoken to by your favorite school teacher but when i was watching it this and i was thinking well that was a speech that donald trump would never ever delivered. and this is why joe biden the sitting in the white house right now some of donald trump's own staff of privately acknowledged that one of the biggest mistakes that donald trump made in his handling of covert 19 was to take this tough war like approach instead of a compassionate approach in terms of dealing with people's direct suffering and that's what you're hearing from joe biden he's taking just the opposite you have to remember this is a man's had enormous pain in his life despite the fact that he is relatively privileged even though he had a working class background he's lost his wife and child actually 2 children one most recently so he's have a lot of personal pain so even though he may not be suffering financially at this moment he knows what it feels like to suffer he knows what it feels like to grieve over the loss of something whether it's a business or

a child grief is grief so you're hearing that emotion from this president i think that's what many americans are looking for right now and so he's tapping into that moment and saying trust me because remember he's got impressive resume it's not like he was just the vice president or is just the president he was in congress for a year as he sat in these battles with recut but republicans back and forth over budget dozens of them so he knows what he's talking about he speaks with authority and confidence that his plan will work you know it's a big gamble again the economists believe that they know something that joe biden doesn't but there are always different schools of thought there as well so he's leaning on his experience and he's leaning in in the hopes that he can turn things around he talked about the suicide rates he's talking about the depression he's talking about the impact of kids not going to school and the socialization impacts that go along with that so he's speaking from the heart as much as he's speaking from the pocketbook kimberly thank you very much we'll talk to you soon let's bring

in christopher thornberg he's a funding partner at beacon economics he joins us from los angeles chris welcome back to al-jazeera what are the problems with mr biden's plan. well. the thing you have to remember is that we already have gone big last year they passed a 3 trillion dollars stimulus plan and enormous amount of money was injected into the system and the problem of course is the conversations about where the united states is is completely misinterpreting the nature of this business cycle this is a supply shock it's not a demand shock a demand shock such as what occurred at the back end of the great recession there is massive restructuring the economy that takes years and years and you need this kind of big go big approach this supply shock is a situation by which once we get these vaccines rolled out we get control of this virus the vast majority these jobs that are not in effect will come back because people will go back to disneyland they will go back to restaurants and of course

the 1st stimulus the vast majority of that cash because it was given to people who still had their job that still had their businesses running that money wasn't used it went straight into the banking system the u.s. right now is seeing a 2 and a half trillion dollar increase in bank deposits an enormous amount of dry powder that can get this economy going without a 2nd stimulus plan the most important thing of course is to continue to extend expanded unemployment benefits for those people are out of work but ultimately if you think the u.s. economy is suffering that much take a look at the stock market take a look at the housing markets this is an economy where there is so much cash you're already seeing the impact of that and these almost bubble like asset markets but christopher is kind of country and shoot isn't it no president no prime minister a new world leader any place when the economy is tanking and going to the toilet nobody can get people to spend money unless they were disproportionately wealthy or

well insulated seats before the economic train hit the buffers. well but again that's net this is not that kind of business cycle look i appreciate the job numbers still look pretty dramatic but take a look at burned incomes which are already above where they were prepared demick take a look at the asset markets which continue to be red hot all this suggest there's a phenomenal amount of cash out there people aren't spending money because they don't want to that's not what's happening in the united states they can't spend money because the virus is between them and their favorite restaurant it's between them and taking their family on that trip to disneyland once we get control of this virus this money is going to come roaring out and see commies going to take off like a rocket we're going to be back to close to full employment next year even if we have no stimulus plan ok very briefly christopher how long until we you and i can redirect this conversation and you can say biden stimulus plan has been a success turn the page go back to normal. a chair i'm not sure i

understand the question how long until we can say the biden plan has worked oh well again the bottom plan is unnecessary we're going to see an economy that's going to get back to normality very very quickly now these vaccines are being rolled out but to put that in context when you think about a biden plant 2 trillion more entering an economy that is already or reheated for me might be worries are not the short run situation but the medium term because you inject this much cash into an economy you create the potential for inflation you create the problem the potential for asset bubbles and remember the u.s. economy is already taking a run towards a big fiscal crisis driven by retiring boomers this is bringing forward that day of reckoning so in a lot of ways the consequences of this are something we're going to see in 3 or 4 or 5 years christopher thornberg thank you very much my pleasure. plenty more still to come here on the news including.

protests grow in me and maurice the military arrests one of the leading voices against the coup. plus a brand new covert 19 test is being rolled into the use year but how accurate is it will have a report from jakarta. and the australian open champion novak djokovic suffers defeats in his warm up events in serbia as a.t.p. cup defense comes to an end that's coming up with in sport. another big story for you here today on the news hour libya's warring sides have agreed on a new interim government they've elected for leaders on the final day of u.s. led talks near geneva meet the baby has been chosen as interim prime minister until elections in december the u.n. envoy stephanie williams welcomed the agreement but urged caution there is

a lot of work that needs to be done now to build on the success of today and looking forward the the members of the libyan political dialogue firm i'm you know very very pleased that the united nations could join them in this journey in facilitate this dialogue which has produced these results they have a lot of responsibility and moving forward there you know as we look at the timeline because let's be really really clear the goal here is national elections. we'll talk to train in tripoli shortly 1st back to our diplomatic go to james bays following the u.n. back to vote from u.n. headquarters in new york james i'm intrigued to know how much input did the u.n. have here when it came to nudging what became the final result towards being the

final result with these 4 people who are now in place until the elections in december. well there were 4 different slates put forward and the u.n. had a role there with regard to these slates and with regard to who the electors were because the 75 members that were brought here the u.n. said were chosen to represent libyan society but they were chosen by the united nations the slates were drawn up by the united nations so that there was but loans between the regions and the political divisions of libya so yes this has been stage managed by the un the un i don't think is really denying that but they are saying what has resulted here is something that is representative of libya and is a way forward they're also stressing that the 4 names that have been chosen the new government the new presiding council in libya are only temporary their job is very simple it will last 10 months it will run the country and the main aim is to

prepare for elections which are supposed to take place at the end of december this year and they're going to be proper elections they're going to be one person one vote it's an ambitious plan and it's an ambitious timeline but the u.n. believes that this process needs to have momentum and keep momentum if you were to have a very long drawn out period till elections they feel that an interim non elected government may well lose legitimacy among the public and so that's why they're doing doing it this way and hoping that this might succeed where so many other u.n. plans and international plans for libya have failed remember where we are exactly it is in a few days time the 10th anniversary of the beginning of the uprising in libya it's been 10 years of conflict and turmoil and as far as the momentum is concerned james

i mean i guess for the diplomats this is pat ourselves on the back time we've done a good job we've got the right people we believe in play but the reality is for the people of. libya yeah that's all fine and dandy but they want an economy that's going in the right direction they want job creation they want wealth creation they do not want somebody like a leaf or have tar literally surrounding or trying to surround tripoli to take the city for his own yes and the u.n. will be hoping that oil production the economy the opening of the coastal road these will bring back some measure of normalcy for the people of libya that that would be the hope that this will this this will hope help open up the economy and open up normal life for the people of libya but there are some stumbling blocks there is good news there's a cease fire in place but that cease fire needs to hold until elections if things

are going to proceed in the right direction and the other thing is it's the foreign forces that exist in libya the u.n. and the u.n. security council very keen that all foreign forces should leave one deadline has already passed the u.n. now planning to bring international monitors a small number to begin with to try and police things on the ground james thanks very much live now to malik train a correspondent joining us live on the news from tripoli nic for libyans i think the u.n. touched on this just in the past couple of hours you know they know that 70 percent of libyans want this to go in the direction that it's going but they also need we're discussing it now here on the news they also need an economy that is getting stronger they need job creation. well that's right i mean libya is a very oil rich country it has the largest reserves crude reserves in africa and so this should be

a rich country full of development full of job creation full of foreign investments it has 2000 kilometers on the mediterranean so i mean this is a really underdeveloped country it shouldn't be this shouldn't be the case unfortunately after the revolution that toppled moammar gadhafi 10 years ago like james bay says libya has been engulfed in violence in 2019. after began his campaign on tripoli and that was just days before a un facilitated national conference much like the one that we saw take place today in switzerland was set to take place just days before that. launches military offensive and that was really devastating 2 to tripoli in particularly over 100 according to a government officials here over 125000 homes were destroyed hundreds of thousands

of people displaced and so that's really created a serious economic or financial issues for many families here for hundreds of thousands of people. but the u.n. has been able to somewhat be successful in these trucks they've had the economic track which has seen success you know previously the central bank was divided between the triple in tripoli and in eastern libya they were they were able to sit them down together they came up with a united currency the devalued the libyan dinar but at the same time libyan salaries aren't reflective of that devaluation just to give you an idea most government employees here. make approximately $1000.00 libyan dinars a month a quote with the new currency that's about that's about $23240.00

a month or so and even with that amount of money they're not able to pull it out because of the liquidation problems in the banks so they can't even get them the little money that they're supposed to get they can't even receive that so it's very difficult to provide for their families there's no job creations there's no job creation for young men and that's a big issue and that's why many of these young men. go out and join you know these militias or armed groups and join the fighting because those were previously those are the people who paid money they paid much higher salaries to these young men so hopefully i think most libyans here our team spent about an hour in the streets of tripoli just to sort of get some kind of idea of how people are feeling most people here are hopeful they want change they want they want people to they want to see a lections they want to see power come back to the people and be able to cast their ballots they're hoping that this government will lead to the. manik thanks very

much monitoring of their reporting live from tripoli let's get more detail on where we are with libya's political transition as it is today once the caretaker administration is in place the eastern government based into broken the u.n. recognize government the capital tripoli will be dissolved but will end nearly a decade of national division the new 3 member presidential council will be responsible for preparing the nation for a general election december the 24th in theory presidential and parliamentary but the issue of foreign fighters does remain the u.n. special representative to libya estimates that up to $28000.00 turks russians syrians sudanese and chaldeans are still in libya let's bring in. founder and director of the public policy think tank the center institute he joins us on skype from istanbul in turkey and welcome back to the news hour let's just go back a couple of minutes we were talking there about after he is strategically

interesting i guess in as much as he's there in the east where all the oil comes from but the financial institutes that the profit margin goes through they're all in the west in tripoli given that and given that that's in effect a point of leverage as a pinch point for him if he decides not to be a good boy over the coming 9 or 10 months is there going to be a pressure on him from the people of libya all the people of libya to behave and to behave properly. certainly agree with the question of whether you're on this aspect of how libyans can apply pressure that was decades ago and i think libyans have become truly fatigued by the experience of constant need to protest and i mean this really is the chapter now for libyans where they have to start considering how the international community responds to spoilers and i say international unity but you

know we also have to look at the u.n. security council as a vehicle of the international community and that has been broken in no uncertain terms that that has been broken since the april 2019 intervention by the head of up there and he said that is certainly poses the most significant. threat i would say for spoiling this next unity government but i would also say let's go back 5 years or almost 6 years since the creation of the last u.n. backed unity government it was also rejected by filibuster and the presidential council was rejected by helicopters associate in the parliament i got a solid who was the candidate for this new presidential council now given that they have lost and given that there are this really isn't i should i should measure this point this is really a surprise not only for libyans themselves but for many of the analysts many of the diplomats that are looking quite closely at the libyan political dialogue for him i don't think anybody expected this outcome it really is a shock and i think it's a shock given that many of the names that we're looking at

a quiet side to is they don't represent the true principal camps that had been fighting over the last 3 years but last 6 years if you want to consider going back to the last civil war so i think in that respect what happens to the losers how do they respond over the next 12 months and i think the real question here is how does the un give this government teeth will the un apply sanctions to those that spoil or reject this government because there will be a lot of stress that's the one i use that term again flexibly because it's going to be really well it's against the next 12 months until we reach the balance ok the real danger is that ok the un has to focus on anticipating that idea of stress testing which i suspect not wishing to put words into your mouth is a polite way of saying might try and do something or other people might try and do something there is a shrinking contingent of isis fighters still we understand way down in the south of the country nobody's talking about that over the past 3 or 4 hours but when it

comes when push comes to shove can tripoli slash the un withstand a stress test. so hard question to answer given on precedent now no you know you have to be i'm calling you a decade don't let the decade on since the revolution a lot has changed i don't think of the us and i quote the former as our s.g. so that you know the former acting as far as you are there. to the un in libya he even claimed on the beginning of the war in april doesn't it seem that the libyans themselves need to understand the u.n. is no longer in the same formation as it was in march doesn't 11 this is a new game and i think the u.n. i don't believe today that the major powers in the un were talking about russia which has a military base now in libya is going to be satisfied with the results as you've already mentioned in your own segment 20000 foreign mercenaries that are there representing turkey russia or the u.a.e.

you could go on i mean it's a major major dilemma and this is really the now that the role of major international powers to oversee the transition over the next 12 months this isn't going to be about by just elections this is a transition also in the political sense in the military sense and in the economic sense there's so much that overall in 12 months it's going to be a major major challenge for the u.n. here ok we will talk to you again i'm sure and a saga mansi over the coming days and weeks on this compelling story about libya thank you so much for joining us from turkey thank you going to. ok we have some breaking news for you coming to us out of amsterdam where the international criminal court has said it has territorial jurisdiction over palestine that would allow prosecutors to investigate alleged war crimes by israel in occupied palestinian territories that includes the gaza strip the occupied west bank and east jerusalem that story has just dropped we'll get you more on that just as soon as we can

a palestinian man has been shot dead near an illegal settlement in the occupied west bank the israeli army says the man tried to break into a home close to ramallah there are around $250.00 illegal settlements on the hilltops of the west bank. the number of violent deaths in palestinian israeli communities has been rising steadily for years that's despite government promises to tackle the problem activists blame a mixture of well armed and organized criminal gangs and a lack of action from the police al-jazeera is harry force it has more now from northern israel. as most of israel focuses on the covert crisis the palestinian israelis a different issue dominates daily life gun violence this what it was captured in january in the northern town of omar farm in the moments after its latest killing 21 year old mohammed was shot dead on his doorstep he just returned from a protest against violent crime he was the 4th member of his extended family to be killed in just 18 months the family say they don't know why they've been targeted

muhammad's cousin and anti-crime activist says it's up to the police to provide the answers. there is c.c.t.v. there is d.n.a. i don't need to teach them their job even if they can find all the evidence 50 percent will be there search and ask and investigate this is your job not mine it's a long running accusation by palestinian israelis that negligent law enforcement allows crime gangs freedom to operate in their towns and villages 2020 was the deadliest year for many with $96.00 violent deaths in our communities there is general agreement about one thing an epidemic of violent crime is sweeping palestinian israeli society not for the 1st time your forty's a promising more engagement and more enforcement the israeli prime minister who unusually has been campaigning for palestinian israeli votes in next month's election has pledged an overhaul of policing an investigation promising to target

the violence in the same way as terrorism or more farms mayor says previous such promises have failed to make a difference let us so that sort of you know that i mean look at that unfortunately the israeli police treat us as enemies not designs of the state. just last friday there was a peaceful protest by the youth in front of the police station and the police attacked with extraordinary equipment and force and undercover officers it's unacceptable an investigation by the our it's newspaper in november found that only a 5th of murders in palestinian israeli communities resulted in charges compared to more than half in jewish areas. we face obstacles in the arab society most importantly we need to make clear that cleaning the crime scene hiding the weapon organizing testimonies not cooperating not informing the police all of these form an obvious barrier to solving murders meanwhile the violence continues thousands took to the streets in the town of tama to mourn the death of another young man a committed jersey was a 23 year old nursing student

a bystander killed in crossfire as israeli police in gauged in the gun battle with a gang who was shooting into a nearby house another young life ended in another neighborhood turned into a crime scene ari force at al-jazeera northern israel. still to come here on the news for you thousands living in one of the most militarized zones on earth promise freedom for kashmir. and a show of force in the powerless the political crisis deepens after the parliament there is dissolved. and will build up to the super bowl as tom brady aims for yet another title that's coming up with me in sport in about 15 minutes. from. how the rain clouds are gathering across the middle east

including an interim prime minister until elections in december. international criminal court says it has territorial jurisdiction over palestine that would allow prosecutors to investigate alleged war crimes by israel in occupied palestinian territories. e.u. leaders are condemning russia's decision to expel diplomats from sweden poland and germany for taking part in unlawful opposition rallies organized by alexei enough it coincided with a visit by the e.u. use top diplomat joseph burrell to moscow to meet his russian counterpart sergei lavrov is under simmons. alexei navalny was back in court again as the european union's top diplomat was also in moscow calling for the opposition leaders release only 3 days after being jailed a separate job was in a valley is accused of defamation he called kremlin supporters appearing in a video corrupt stooges the prosecution say he insulted

a 95 year old man one of russia's revered world war 2 veterans in the family told the court singling out a war veteran was a p.r. stunt intended to discredit him and he was disgusted by it in the kremlin. the head of the used foreign policy was meetings a lever of russia's foreign minister high on baros agenda was the plight of the valley who had been poisoned with a nerve agent know which oak and receive lifesaving treatment in germany last. september i have conveyed to minister lavrov our deep concern and trade to rated our appeal to release on the launch of an impartial investigation of the case by any lover of talked of the low points in relations with the e.u. just because it's true that they're not at their best partly due to their illegitimate restrictions which are introduced by e.u.

under trumped up pretext it's a reference there to eat huge trade and financial sanctions imposed after russia's annexation of crimea in the ukraine conflict in 2014. breakthrough is considering further sanctions against russia over the abounding of . andrew simmons. dominic keynes in berlin with more reaction from the e.u. . the view in berlin the view in paris as has been made very clear by angela merkel and emmanuel mccaw on friday afternoon is will they have reacted if not angrily but strongly to the expulsion of 3 diplomats e.u. diplomats one of them german from moscow on the basis of what the russian government has said was inappropriate behavior for diplomats of the german government angela merkel saying that she believed it was totally unjustified for

the russian government to take the action it did and emmanuel mcconnell speaking in a digital conference with angle americal the 2 had been meeting in a digital format as part of a franco german security council mr merkel made very clear in his opinion he had condemned firmly everything that had happened in the process that mr novelli found himself in from the moment he was poisoned back in august to now where he finds himself in a prison serving a freshly imposed prison sentence and so you have to view what's the use reaction to what has happened on friday through that prism remember that the 2 leaders merkel and mccann have been perhaps the most strongly spoken in condemning what has happened to mr nardelli and the way that the situation has evolved over the course of the past few months and so on that basis the explains the sort of language we're hearing now coming both from paris and from berlin. there being protests

across me and neighboring countries as demonstrators continue to push back against a military coup that's after one of deposed leader and son suchi his close aides was arrested when there's a senior party figure and formally a political prisoner who spent decades campaigning against military rule al jazeera scott picks up the story. more and more people across myanmar coming out and speaking out. it's monday's military coup civil disobedience movements have grown in size and numbers more emerging every day since health care workers were the 1st to come out earlier in the week a going on strike. there waving the red flag of on song suchi is party the n l d and they have adopted the 3 finger salute made popular by the thai anti-government protesters. the movement has now spread to the major cities across myanmar including a gathering of teachers on the yangon university of education campus even got
