africa direct on al jazeera, the american people have spoken. but what exactly did they say? is the world looking for a whole new order with less america in it? is the woke agenda on the decline in america. how much the social media companies know about you, and how easy is it to manipulate the quizzical look us politics? the bottom line, examining the headlines, how big a breakthrough is this story moment for all towers, research, unflinching journalism. i can see the part of the tree where 2 of the bullets hit their about my head high, sharon personal stories with a global audience. nature is so much more than income for shareholders. it's the library else. my people explore an abundance of world class programming on al jazeera. ah,

this is al jazeera oh. hello there, i'm dealing with donald. this is the al jazeera news, our alive from london coming up republican kevin mccarthy loses the 1st 2 runs of voting for speaker of the u. s. as of representatives after hard liners from his own party, but against him. the u. s. express is deep concern after israel's new security minister stokes tensions with palestinians with a provocative intrusion into alex a most compact. mm. brazilians lying the streets of san tall sas pitfall. legend pelley is carried to his final resting place and recriminations in russia where some politicians are demanding punishment for military commanders after the killing of dozens of russian soldiers in

a ukrainian strife. and in sports, premier league leaders arsenal are being held by newcastle. it's currently mil at mail at the i'm ritz stadium, plus ah, christiane evanardo has been unveiled at his new saturday from our nasa and says he took the opportunity as he wants to give a different vision of the country. ah, one welcome to the news. our republican kevin mccarthy, his last to 2nd ran to vo, seemed to be the speaker in the house of the us house of representatives. after a hard line, as from his own policy, again voted against him. while the republicans took control of the house with a narrow wind in november mid term elections that mccarthy was considered the front runner, but he's now twice fallen short. the 218 vote majority that's needed. the democrats, however, have united around. they are no money. keep jeffery suit finished 1st in the 2 runs

of voting so far, i was the 1st time in a century that someone vying for the wall of house speaker hasn't one in the 1st round of voting with john hendrick. joyce, me live from capitol hill. hi there, john. bring us up to date. well, the clerk is on the floor of the house that suggest we're about to hear nominations for a 3rd round or voting, and for a 100 years. as you point out, this has been a pretty boring process. they nominate somebody on the 1st ballot. we have a decision. everybody goes home. this time we're on ballot 3 and it's very unusual that that happened. the last time course was 1923, and then it is only happened once or twice since the civil war era. but sometimes it gets really long. there were a number of balance in 1855 to 56. that lasted 2 months. we don't expect that to happen here, but in the twenty's they went to 9 ballots. that this could go that way. what

happened is a group from the freedom caucus has objected to this election of kevin mccarthy as speaker. they feel like he wasn't enough aligned with their views and he has sort of gone back from moderate to very conservative and they are sort of the trump wing of the party, the portion that still supports president trump and his ideas or rather a former resident drunk and they don't appear to be giving an a 1st to vote. they were 19 votes against mccarthy. he could only afford to lose 4. and on the 3rd vote, it is not clear that something is changed or the last vote jim jordan was nominated, which was a little strange because jordan had just stood up and nominated kevin mccarthy. there were a couple of other people that might be consensus nominees, at least defining of new york steve scully's, of louisiana,

who is the deputy to kevin mccarthy. so this could get very interesting, but mccarthy says he's sticking it in there. they need 218 votes just to adjourn this session if they want to go out and negotiate. so all when it goes to ation has been going on in the cloak rooms outside of the main floor in the house. but right now it looks like we're going to get mentions once again, including a nomination for kevin mccarthy. and we'll see what happens on this time. whether that margin grows from 1900 or shrinks, or whether it stays the same. and if it does, is going to have to be some arm twisting in those co grooms, or at least some inducements offered. john, how far does this breakdown and republican unity go? this has been going on for about 1415 years. it began with a tea party, and this is a group of people who had become more mainstream over the course of the years. but part of what they are all about is disrupting the normal flow of business. and they

don't mind it all that this is embarrassing, larger republican party because they feel like it's forwarding. their goals among their goals has been weakening the speakership and increasing the power of individual members. so they've got kevin mccarthy to agree that it only takes 5 members to vote, to recall the speaker, to the speaker. well, after that they wanted it to be just one member who would be able to vote. they still need a majority to actually throw them out. but what that would do is cause disruption it like leaving a letter on your desk with your resignation on it. on the day you enter office, it would severely week or this week and the speaker, and it would make the republican speaker much weaker than nancy pelosi was. she was the last democratic speaker of course. so we'll see how this goes in the coming hours. we would expect it to be resolved within the, in the days. but sometimes these things do go on longer than that. it's been over a 100 years since it has the engine there. don't live from capitol hill. john.

thank you. when a shy of form, a senior congressional a to to republicans in the us house of representatives and she joins me live from washington, d. c. when i saw very welcome to the program. so it's been a firm no for kevin so far. well, today is a historic day without a doubt, as your correspondent noted, this has not happened since the 1920s. and i'll say on its base, anyone can see this is a huge embarrassment. not only to mccarthy, but to the republican party, as well as to our nation. note it republicans not only looks so divided right now in their inability to rally around one person to lead them. but this doesn't look good for the body. that is, congress writ large, of course, this is only one chamber of commerce congress, but in general, it highlights exactly what's happening with a party right now. the spirit divisions, the argument, and truly taking on the veneer of trump in order to try to decimate the republican

establishment and bring it how to the american public view. what's happening right now? i think there's a lot of shock right now. we have an electorate, that is, if you really look at it, very disengaged. we have pretty low levels of civic engagement in the modern era. we have high levels of disapproval from the american public for congress. and those have continued to rise in number and job, frankly. i think there will be people who learn of what's happening right now as we speak, the lord of it to night, the lord of it tomorrow, and they'll sort of shake their heads and say, those people in washington aren't like me. they don't do much to serve me. so why should i really care? and that's a really huge issue for our democracy. that this is augur well for a healthy democracy, a representative democracy like ours, when people feel politically disengaged and they don't feel well represented. that's what we're seeing right now, and the republican party is really putting on full display. and we know we keep

hearing this phrase that this is the far right of the republican party flexing their muscle. so what is it they want their will the end game? it is the far right flexing their muscles, that is entirely it they've tried to do so for a decade and in general, what can be said is that over the course of trumps time in the white house, the house freedom cocher up caucus. excuse me. those far right lingers in congress had actually increase their power. and so here's this moment where they get to really stick it to who they consider are there any is the people within their own party, people like congressman mccarthy who has had his eyes on the speakership for a long time. he was a right hand man to former republican speaker, paul ryan, who is not in congress anymore. ryan was very much a policy guy, but he looked to mccarthy to do sort of the dirty political work to with votes to play the tricks and games that he didn't really care for. and mccarthy did those, well, that them right now he's not looking like

a very good political animal. and i think it's because he frankly tried to bargain in reason and do deals with this bar. right. members, and what's happened is that he's actually on the losing end. we know who are the fold back candidates. i wish there was a fallback candidate that is not looking like any one good right now and what i say good, i need somebody who has the ability to quickly secure enough boats to show that they can take the speakership. that might be happening right now in real time that flow through off the floor of the house of representatives, but it's anyone's guess. i think there's a lot of embarrassment right now within republicans. they don't know what to do. there are democrats, we're talking about leaving the floor and therefore you wouldn't have to get to that magic number of to eat team. they would simply take a majority of whoever's there instead of boating, present that that is what some democrats are considering doing instead of voting present. but look how keen job, pres the democrat,

got more votes and mccarthy for the speakership in these 1st 2 ballots. so this is, i'm completely, i chartered territory for those of us who have understood the modern institution of congress. i've worked in it for to former republicans. and i've studied extensively . this is outsourcing mystifying, but there's no other word that comes to mind aside from embarrassing for the republican party and doesn't help them look good as they seek to govern this year, which sets the table for the 2024 presidential race when a shot. thank you so much for joining us, rena, with your insight. thank you. certainly, thank you. opening arguments have begun and the child of enrique tauriel, former leaves are of far right american group, the prime boys. the child concerns involvement in january 2021 attack on the u. s. capital building stereo and his school defendants are charged with seditious conspiracy. and other cas relating to the attack 2 years ago, which led to a delay in the certification of jo, vibrant election victory. now the u. s. says is directly concerned by

a far right is really minister's visit to alex a most compound. saudi arabia, the united arab emirates, and jordan have all condemned the intrusion, which the palestinian leadership cold called an unprecedented provocation. national security minister, it's m r been given, entered the complex 5 days after becoming a minister. now, a decades old agreement allows non muslims to visit is lambs, 3rd holy, a site, as long as they don't pray. ben give ear has called for great a jewish access to alex a, but prime minister benjamin netanyahu says he's committed to strictly keeping the status quo. will the visit risks stoking tension with palestinians ah spokesman said a continuation of this behavior will bring all parties closer to a big clash and has been our leader hassan, nurse rolla says any infringement of the state a school could have even wiser implications. and ha and firewood, any infringement of the alexa mosques loan and the sanctity of muslims and

christians, by the zionists in palestine and in jerusalem could lead to an explosion are not only inside palestine hello but also in the entire region of you as you will back in the year 2000 or visit by the then israeli opposition leader ariel sharon, triggered the 2nd intifada and tension at the site in may. 2021 escalated into an 11 day conflict. cyber higher reports now from occupied east jerusalem. it was a quick incursion into alex, almost compound under heavy israeli security. it happened in the early hours of tuesday followed by a quick exit a calculated intrusion with it's a mob been given, making a statement on this issue just days into being sworn in as israel's new national security minister. delivery for a lot because our government will not surrender to the threats of how much of the temple mount is the most important place for the people of israel by and when

maintained to freedom of movement for muslims and christians. but the jews, god will also go, and those who make credit must be dealt with with an iron fist on a bite. all it took was 13 minutes inside the compound, enough time to provoke international condemnation, including from jordan, which overseas the holy site. it's some, an israeli ambassador and protest, while palestinian leaders called it an unprecedented provocation. and now the hum l y 0 is really been love you. the storming of alexa mosque by that is really minister, been given this morning, constitutes a serious challenge to the feelings of the palestinian people. you recall on our people to confront such incursions that aim to make an x, a mosque, a jewish temple. this is a violation of all international norms values, conventions, laws, and israel's pledges to the american president. wow. now deborah unadilla algebra. he considers this cowardly attempt by been given

a dangerous escalation and approval cation of the palestinians, and the arab and muslim nations. this good bought a religious war in the region and this statement from his radio opposition leader and former prime minister, iowa p, describing the intrusion as a politically responsible decision and showing incredible weakness from netanyahu in front of his ministers bought. there was no mention of the incident in the government says cabinet meeting, while the prime minister's office released the statement saying benjamin netanyahu is committed to the status quo. and oxer most compound is a sad holy site for most sense, but it's also revered by jews under the rules only must them wash it is allowed palestinians are concerned that been given incursion, to set a precedent for israel's new administration. the new ultra orthodox and right wing government has promised to expand illegal settlements in the occupied westbank. where on tuesdays ready forces carried out several raids at refugee camp near bethlehem, killing 15 year old palestinian as am i yet during confrontations?

bringing this years palestinian death toll to 3. this rate is the latest in a string of more than 40 arrests made in several palestinian towns since his thoughts of the year. alexa was placed on m. i it's coffin. his family says he wrote it as a message to the world in case of his death that he's proud to be palestinian sir height at al jazeera, occupied east. you receive him. the white house says any actions jeopardizing the status quo at alex a mosque would be unacceptable. the united states stands firmly and we've been very clear for preservation of the status quo with respect to the holy sites in jerusalem. any unilateral action that jeopardizes the status quo is unacceptable, and we will continue to be steadfast on that and be very clear on my calendar on the slide from washington dc. hi, there might,

how likely is this to affect us relations with the new israeli government? well it's certainly going to give her the u. s. administration food for thought. certainly the language used there by the press secretary and acceptable, very strong language in terms of diplomatic terms separately. we also heard for us from a spokesman for the state department and it price, who also declared this to be an acceptable, any infringing of the status quo, any unilateral action against the status quo. but ned price also added that the u. s. is well aware of a precedent for this. he was referring to the year 2000 when ariel sharon, than the leader of the opposition or went on to the aisle oxer compound that resulted in the 2nd intifada, which lasted from 2000 to 2006 net price, making direct reference to that in his comments about the unacceptability of this,

clearly they are going to be words spoken with the israeli administration. also of great concern to the biden administration is the fact that it would appear that the new israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu did give the go ahead for this because reports indicate that he met with his national security minister in the course of monday. now the national security minister and been given has been visited the alex a mosque several times since he was elected to parliament back in 2021. but now his status as national security minister gives this an added impact and certainly great concern within the biden administration, particularly as we hear from state department, they know what happened the previous time. the status quo was unilaterally crossed my can i joining us there? thanks mike. also said to her is a human rights lawyer who's represent palestinians before these were a supreme court and she joins us live from high for so st. very warm welcome to the

program. and why did ben give you into the compound and why is it being treated? as so much more than just controversial. ah, well 1st of all, bank sir, and all his a racist right wing gay people like bank there and small rich and all the others have been politically campaigning. not only just to enter or forcibly enter alex and make the provocation and acceleration in the political is tough to school. but also they have been campaigning to annex the westbank and basically stayed provide the political statement that they are the owners of the lamb. the land means the land of israel, which basically they want to implement the biblical as zionist political vision of having israel not only as a state of israel, but israel in all the land of israel. now it is true that we need to go as well

back to october 2001. back then as sharon a broke into the alex saw which lead that triggered the 2nd intifada and left as well to the killing of palestinians. not only in the west bank but also killing it off, but athenians inside the green line by the israeli police, which it none have been none of the police officer have been indicted until today. we don't need to go back until october 2000. we can just go back to may 2021 just a year and a half ago when bentley or himself opened a branch of his parliamentary office in chicago in order to a reject it a that eviction or into order to basically support the eviction of palestinian families which also triggered what was called another intifada in a or their dignity intifada in may 2021. this is a clear political statement by been very,

it is not new. therefore none of us have been surprised. he is deliberately and intentionally doing every publication he can, whether it is calling for annexation, whether it's calling into breaking in paul ok, so she knows is sensitive in order to aggressively bring to the provocation. now been very important to know, been very as a regular zionist, like nathan young, like as sharon, unlike the others. the difference between them is that he is a racist, fascist person. that aggressively unintentionally wants to make a provocation. employ violence between both sides in order to implement and show yours fully and aggressively that he is the owner of the land of israel. so center to so some there, sorry to interrupt you. i just, i just want to ask, you mentioned the word violence, there are water, your worries about the potential repercussions about what might come next.

now of course, and not only i am worried, i think that everybody is worried because there might be no border to what the bend here will do as the minister and nathan. yeah. jose government, knowing that he has the power, we know, been via a, as a, a, as a racist activist before he joined the government. this is the 1st time that he is a minister knowing that he has a power and he has the ability as well to a to basically have a not only essay but making changes on the ground will lead to huge and aggressive a violence violence. i mean, a violence by that is raised towards the palestinians. of course, the annexation of the west bond would lead to huge violence. i don't know if we're

going to talk about another in d 5. the only or something that is more is severed. but yes, we are all worried that it will escalate into a severity of violence and aggressiveness that we haven't seen until now. so since a, her human rights lawyer, he's represented palestinians before the suite supreme court. awesome, thank you for your insight. good evening. coming up on this news hour from london, thousands of kurds, travel across europe for a memorial in paris for the 3 victims of an attack on their community. with china, cities get busier, so do it's hospitals w h o advisor? say they want a more realistic picture of the coven? i break happening there. and in sports nfl player, do mar hominid remains in a critical condition after suffering a cardiac arrest during a game. ah

reach consensus to avoid catastrophe. climate wars are 2 on a just 0. there is no channel that covers world news like we do as a roman correspondent. i am constantly on the go covering topics from politics. the conflict is environmental issue galeb. this camp is like nothing you've ever seen kerry. so what we want to know is how did these things affect people we, we visit places in state, even when they're no international headlines. they're really invest in that. and that's a privilege. as a journalist, lou ah,

our minds of our top stories here on l. jesse, the leading contender for republican kevin mccarthy's lost a 2nd ride for voting to be the speaker in the us house of representatives after hardliners from his own party voted against it. it's the 1st time in a 100 years the election has gone to a 2nd round. democrats, dominique, i keep jeffrey secure more votes the mccarthy in both of those 1st ramped saudi arabia, the nightstand. roberts and jordan have joined palestinians in condemning the intrusion of the alex. i'm also by is really national security minister. it's amar been give year, the palestinian leadership described it quote, as an unprecedented propagation and hundreds of thousands of people lined the streets. a sentence in southern brazil's made a final farewell to football legend pallet's who died on thursday at the age of 82, the 3 time world cup. when his coffin was carried through the city on a fire truck. mm . now days after ukrainian attack on temporary

russian barracks in the eastern city of mc keith cup, some russian politicians, as well as a former commander of pro russian troops, have demanded punishment for commanders who they say ignored the dangers of stationing troops there. in a rare disclosure of troops, fatalities rushes defense ministry said on monday that 63 soldiers were killed in the new year's eve attack. ukraine says about 400 russian soldiers were killed and 300 wounded rushes. military leadership is facing criticism. after reports, the soldiers were being housed alongside an ammunition stump, which was in was within range of ukrainian rockets will eventually been held for those killed in southwestern russian city of samarra. where some of those troops were form. the service was followed by a minutes silence. before flowers related a soviet area, a war memorial, it's one of the deadliest attacks on russian forces since they invaded 10 months

ago. ukraine's president says russia is ready to launch an extensive campaign of attacks by iranian made. drones have brought him here salons, cases, russia is trying to exhaust ukraine. mind when we have information that russia is planning a protracted attack using shaheed drones. it is probably banking on exhaustion, exhausting our people now. anti aircraft, frances, our energy, but we act and do everything so that the terrorists fail in their aim as all their others have failed. tens of thousands of railway workers in the united kingdom are staging or have begun 5 days of strikes. now, just as people head back to work after their christmas holiday, pay and conditions remain at the center of the dispute and one union both says the industrial action could last month's harry faucet reports from what's usually one of london's busiest stations. the british commute is it's a case of new year, same strikes, tens of thousands of rail workers from the r n. t union began

a 2 day walk out on tuesday kicking off a 5 day run of industrial action across the rail network. this 1st strike leading a skeleton service in some parts of the country. none at all. in others, it has been really hectic, especially getting to work has been really difficult. but fortunately, again, you know, with technology, it does help that we can work from home. so i completely understand that people have the right to strike and i support them straight and also coming back christmas . but also you want to do is and have delayed travel. trains are still running, particularly at major city hubs like this one, but they're running about 20 percent of normal capacity starting later and finishing earlier in the day, passengers are being told not to travel at all possible. those who are making journeys, having to plan accordingly. the unions won't pay awards that reflect inflation currently running at nearly 11 percent and they're resisting proposed changes to working conditions, including more dr. only trains and more mandatory sunday working and members work

in law as we phone up in the air and their conditions will be ripped to pieces. they have, it knows that not, it wasn't even 1st in the, the thinking about pay hundreds of and then there's a beating contract saying don't fall conditions away in return for a very modest pay deal. the government rejects the unions challenge that it's preventing the rail companies from making a deal at the same time, insisting inflation matching pay awards with hon the economy. there's a fair, reasonable payoff for on the table which 2 of the trade unions have accepted the r m t sadly decided to reject it has to be an offer that's fair, reasonable for the taxpayer, as well as for the people who work in industry. and we will go to see some reform in the way the industry operates so that we have a proper 7 day railway that passengers can rely on network rail which runs and maintains the tracks. so such a deal is within touching distance. there are reports that improved benefits rather than pay or under consideration. so now though,
