8:30 pm
in that light as a growing management needs, as well as you to that is really tax, i guess, unreal facilities and address that we call in the international community to increase humanitarian assistance. so i immediately challenge adam all has taught because he is in favor on the right and the united nation is the member states of the gulf corporation council. with demo reiterate therapy, i let you know i'm changed from position from the regard to this and trial. it even posted in question and the need to put in into is really occupational losses. and the most important but posting is 70 overall occupied territories. and the creation of the bach hausteen's data with east jerusalem is capital. you let the jimmy until open mission wide shot, and also we support the rights of refugees. and the line with the initiative of the united states to obvious the realized legitimate rights of the posting and people who we support the initiative savvy rapier. and the league of arab states and
8:31 pm
cooperation was the cons, imani, egypt, and that the shipment kingdom of jordan, to relaunch the peace process. and if we call in the security council to adapt a resolution in order to recognize an independent palestinian state, shelby not having not, we should become a fully fledged member of the united nations. and we stand shoulder to shoulder with the powers to be. and people in this tragedy and we see the way we must be intransigent and act until we achieve their full rights. thank you very much. we must demand that immediate c. 's filed the statement that by author's permanent representative to the united nations on the assigned issue and tell him to say we reject measures leading to force displacement of the palestinian population that spring and model on bush. all right, i'll just here
8:32 pm
a senior political analyst joins us here on set. so model one, looking at the, the temperatures so far it does seem like several countries we've heard from about those. and by so there were several countries in the united nations security council. they want to seize file, right? it's, but it's very clear us doesn't weigh this. what happens in the diplomatic process. now, do you expect and will that create perhaps something of an opening once again for countries like color, which well being gauged in mediation in the absence of a seas 5 to, to get maybe humanitarian pause is going you know, it's becoming more and more difficult because mass took the position that it would no longer deal with is that i had on the fire that before there is a ceasefire is not going to be discussing the release of captives and the scenes from guys or the past 24 hours don't help very much because it seems,
8:33 pm
is that it has gone to the dark side, the civilian cottage that's going on, and then carnage, and the sadistic images that are coming out. these are the mind go to what happened in world war 2, under the nazis. i mean, this kinds of a parading people almost naked so the way it's portrayed and the way it's linked to the media and the way they are boasting about their capacity to do such thing to basically jordan, have some doctors and teachers because a lot of the kind of city is, you know, it's a small community and the end of the day you could circle who is the journalist who was the headmaster in on the school, you know, who's the brother of so on, so forth. and your thing, of course, to these pictures just to kind of reminded lot you is from giovanni, is these are people who were taken from me you and run school with the families with the women and children. those separated, stripped, partially naked,
8:34 pm
meant to neil. i think in some of the video you, he in the background insults and slow as being held at them. you know, i remember as a student of international affairs of strategy, every war had had its image. right. you and remember, for example, the north of it and these women running the burns was enough. all american bonds, your drum number, the american, the so as i do it and sisters that it and outside of the door behind i images for the wrong. cool. that's the probably one of the most iconic circulate. i bought, i bought, i bought a bunch. you also remember things that happened to like some of the brand guys that wants to the point that there is this one image that captures. i thought for the past 60 days that every picture of every child was a portrayal of what this was like, what is it genocide was like, but i think they have the images that we saw of humiliating the on out of people of just every day have not been and getting him and so on,
8:35 pm
so forth. and guys, i think that was a low point in the low points of the war. but back to your point about a piece, what is possible, you can tell that from the position of, for example, couple of in this case that you can be on the highlight of the united states. a major, i lived united states natal, i live the united states as didn't have a principal position at the u. n. and you can be a mediator in this conflict. and so the pick up principal position on this question . so i think it's, i think the more or more out of been, most of the majority countries needs to step up and, and this is quite different. what you're talking about is quite different from what we have seen today. bring it back to today's news again with the deputy us ambassador to the united nations basically said, we don't support this is fine. and before we a moment ago, we were talking about the sort of history of us administrations,
8:36 pm
you're talking about the wrong reagan administration's line that it took on former previous conflicts. maybe it's a good time or want to just to recap and put things back into perspective because the bypass administration position of course is a little bit different from how greatly different from their own reagan administration. it's making it very clear, it's very supportive of as well. and that's being the us policy. of course, since president truman recognize the state, but the relationship is not always been plain sailing. and this is where i'm like kind of now comes in with this report. thank you for having made the 46 president of the united states and the 14th who's attempted to confront the israel palestine division on the 1st day of the current conflict. president biden of israel unqualified support, notably with no cold for restraint. we must be crystal clear. we stand with
8:37 pm
israel biden's and questioning support similar to that of president truman, who recognized the state of israel within 11 minutes of its declaration of independence in may 1948. but the position of some subsequent presidents was more fluid dwight eisenhower, richard nixon and ronald reagan o vehemently oppose this rate. the minutes reaction on occasion. the wonder reagan israel began to receive $3000000000.00 and us a, the g, a, a strong, secure is real, is a shared interest. the george h. w bush administration became the 1st to threaten to withhold annual us aid. israel continues settlement expansion, the deputy foreign minister of israel at the time was named benjamin netanyahu. and his public criticism of the u. s. threat was greeted with anger by the then secretary of state james baker. he refused to meet missing yahoo again and
8:38 pm
blacklisted him from any state department interaction. there was consequences. well, there are always political repercussions about our watch here through one on israel . and i do think that as a result of the actions hate talk, at least in the short term, the republicans law support of the jewish american community. thank you for your statements, be a bomb administration. took the unusual step of withholding a veto with you and security council of to benjamin netanyahu. again, ignore the direct us request. a cub settlement expansion across the resolution. calling for a whole to settlement activity was passed. the question of us a to israel was not brought up, but either the camp david's summits, nor was it raised by president george w bush or donald trump, to support for israel when so far as to recognize jerusalem as well as capital. but
8:39 pm
now some members of the current congress are suggesting that the mounting economic and military aid to israel be made conditional. i take that to, oh, of course. well thought, but i don't think if i started off with that we ever got the more we already know, james baker policy here. no intent to use the millions of dollars of age as liberates because israel is military and political excess. the hug rather than the rod, is this president's choice. mike kinda, i'll just say era washington. all right, so model one, looking at that listening to that package, that of that report by mike kind of course there is some contrasts between the james baker rod and the sort of position was seeing now from the find the administration. right. what arguably, there is a comparison to be made between by then and every single other amount of compressed . i think what we're seeing the last 2 months is the most staunch supporter of his
8:40 pm
rad. to ever occupy the white house. mike kind of started his package with the, with truman told me i did recognize as right, but he wouldn't send any weapons to side to eisenhower also kind of support the but not really is right. and he wouldn't send any workers days or it wasn't until kennedy kind of sent some weapons, but it was only because you want that is not to develop a nuclear weapon. right. in the midst of a cold war, nixon bid support. is there a specially designed 1973 war in order to get something out there and it was strategic? i said, no way to go on with it as we were talking about earlier with reagan joining the whole the what again, that doesn't matter what stage american presidents that support is right. but enough of the way by them to support thing is right now, goes by the sponge, support the is right now in my analysis, i think, and that analysis of many doesn't serve american interest and doesn't serve as or as long term interest as
8:41 pm
a new kind of phenomena where the american president is following on the step of a dangerous. is there any prime minister without asking any questions? so throughout the history, oh it will some 75 years of us is reading the relations we've seen is our support is right. we see that you not say support design, but also we've seen that you're not so stick a distance from is, are we seeing the united states giving? is that whether it's a subject has it or to strategic burden. we've seen that you're not that states take a critical position on is read when the time was needed, when american interests were at stake. not in this case. i think present by then is proving to be quite weak in terms of his ability to criticize is right quite weak. and his ability to influence is red. almost helpless in his attempt to influence the maybe because this is all happening in the background of what further the 5 you on experts call a genocide in the making in november. it kind of highlights this sort of position
8:42 pm
that the us is taking. let's look at what john cubby, he of calls from the national security council, special called in a title, a strategic communications coordinator. had to say that really on the lines, the us position in the midst of what these you and experts call a genocide into making look, we certainly share the concerns that so many of others at concerns including the secretary general about the humanitarian situation in gaza. tell me name me one more nation. any other nation that's doing as much as the united states to alleviate the pain and suffering of the people of god. you can't a so model one once again when you listen to a very senior member of the, by the administration saying, basically we're doing more than anyone else. we're doing what we can this, the overall look really the role that the us is playing. it is not
8:43 pm
a 3rd policy observed in the words of agnes callum, all the former. you and special wrathful children, extrajudicial summary executions. she said on december, the 5th us made weapons facilitated the mass killings of extended families talk about in gone. so right, so this is not just the situation of a 3rd party country saying, hey, we're doing the best we can to simplify it. the united states is acting like a fire or maniac fireman. on the one hand, it sits guys on fire. it helps, is there a said guys on fire and then it tons them a bucket of water to put off the fire. what is the point of the bucket of water to put up the fire? if you want to sit the whole enclave on fire, on the one hand, it supplies the bones to can people to injure people and then hit the one stop and
8:44 pm
the worry for the humanitarian. it allows is a to impose a collective punishment. the spot is people and then it wants to send in some trucks with some aid in order for people to eat up before they are bomb. there is something absurd about what mr. kirby just said. a lot of people would afford him or the 1st time as crocodile kirby or good could be tiers. he's the one who cries about ukrainian isn't about these re these dying. but when it comes to guys that he has a big grin on his face. when his asked questions about the sufferings and gaza, he's been deceptive. and i don't think his deception has worked for a long time now. because the images are much stronger than any word that could be could come up with. you mentioned a ukraine and it might be useful to remember of course, model one that we're talking about the united states that has shown an administration that has show it does know how to take
8:45 pm
a very strong stance in enforcing international law and standing for you and do you and charles, when we recall back to what linda thomas greenfield, the us and bass that i had to say about protecting civilians but in a different conflict in ukraine last year when the us wanted to get a un security council resolution through we've seen reports of attacks on kindergartens and often that just babys newborn babies in an intensive care unit have been evacuated into make shift bomb shelters to we have a solemn obligation to not look away. the people of ukraine will soon need food, and water, and shelter, and medical aid. they will face displacement and lose everything they've worked to build. for these reasons, we and i'll be in the,
8:46 pm
in consultation with our allies in partners have proposed this draft resolution holding russia to account for his aggression against ukraine. there is no middle ground. any doubters, i say, look at the kindergarten that was bomb this morning. take a hard look. so colleagues, this is a simple vote today. let me put it plainly. but yes, if you believe in upholding the un charter and when you just take some of those woods model, want new bone, newborn babies intensive can the need of the population fall to food and shelter. the concerned about displacement. all of those things she spoke about can be very easily, in fact, is being raised by the united nations by international human rights goods, about goss up with a very different us position on that. now,
8:47 pm
if you pick out the name ukraine and replace it with by the side or gaza or the you've got yourself the same speech of the same arguments, except that's where hypocrisy lies. hypocrisy lies when you don't judge the act on it, submit it. when you judge it, according to the act of not to the nature of the act, the same policies of the so called collective punishment, sponsoring are the people bombing people, civilians, hospitals, a daycare, children, and schools on so on so forth where this happens. and guys, uh its okay because is there it is all online? if it happens in the ukraine and ukraine, it's not ok. why? because the restaurant is our enemy. so once again, judging the act, not on it, submit it by then, but by the nature of the actor, whether they are friends of allies is at the heart center at the hospital. but the type of policy is, unfortunately, this wasn't just their medical position, but i mean, every european leader from the insurance, a lot of germany to the president of the european commission to the bridge prime
8:48 pm
minister as of each and every one of them spoke the same words on ukraine, but when it's come to gaza, when it comes to guys, somehow the kind of sitting in lives don't matter as much. or is there a method is much more in a sense that we are ready to condemn russia. but me wouldn't of i couldn't them is right for doing exactly the same thing or even worse, much worse. done with the rush i did. did you create? all right to model on the shot all senior political analyst. thanks so much. i think we're going to come back to a little bit, so we'll keep you here for now, but we've got to recap them with. so this whole process is going right now in new york. we know that we're hearing from a different much that talking about that position in this security council meeting, which is being called for by the secretary general. and we know also a while that's going on. our foreign ministers have a meeting in washington dc. they are expected to meet with the us secretary of state antony blinking with
8:49 pm
a very clear message that they do want an immediate c as far as an now's a good time to go over the path and call hang joins us live from washington dc. now that we've heard patsy from the depth of us and best of the to the you and the, the us does not support the see spot. is that meeting with our farm is still going ahead. are they still hopeful they can get some kind of change in the us position? well, we haven't heard that. they've been that they're going to cancel that meeting. that's expected a few hours from now. so they did very, very depressed for about an hour. we weren't allowed to put it on camera. i really wish we could have. they made some really impassioned points. first, i was able to ask the question to the entire panel and let me go through who's here? the board ministers of turkey pals. so and cut or saudi arabia, jordan and egypt. and so i put the question to all of them is the vitamins isn't bid fight him ministration. putting enough pressure on israel, are you putting enough pressure on israel? what do you say to the critics? you say you're not in the sorry for administer answered for the group say,
8:50 pm
and obviously no one's pretty that have pressure on israel because it's still happening. and as you said, they want to cease fire now. and they did call us by the ministration, saying, the binding ministration isn't doing enough that they're not at the seas far yet. it was very interesting. he said, we are sending a clear message to the international community, and we will hold them to account. i tried to follow up and kind of actions. how would you hold them to a couch? that wasn't answered, but it was really didn't fit for me to serve jordan responded to my question. you said 5. and that the pictures are spilling up television across the globe. we indicated probably not so much in the united states, which is in fact true. but he said, what they are, this is done is an entire j and a ration of people no longer have faith in the peace process or even the idea of peace. he said this has undone 30 years of work. i'm trying to get some sort of
8:51 pm
solution to this issue. uh, eddie, as she said, because of all of those images that people are seeing that this is already been a strategic defense of israel. now, one of the things i thought was very important. they said was so israel's gonna defy the entire international community by everyone. and then just absolutely gotta state guys a walk away and expect us to clean up their mess. they said simply, no. is it we're not interested in talking about what comes half the day after? well, where you want to focus on is ceasefire more? a 2 state solution and the sorry for administer would as such, he doesn't think it's that hard to get to a 2 state solution. he says, we know what the parameters are and predicted it could happen in a year or even less time. one of the questions that the american media wanted to ask is to come off of any role in governing pals, is palestinians in the near in the future. and they said, look, we palestinians get to make that choice. we will start rebuilding and then what
8:52 pm
palestinians choose who is going to be their leaders. this was incredibly fascinating as well. the question was asked of the minister of foreign affairs of palestine. a simple question from the media and the sati. foreign minister interrupted and said, i'm sorry, because of the visa restrictions placed on him a for a minister by the united states. but he is not allowed to talk to the media, or there could be legal repercussions. and all of my decades of cover in american politics, i have never once heard that a foreign minister of another country was barred by the us of these researches and speaking to the media. so it was very much a news worthy news filled conference, but they are here to send the message to members of congress of the process. and now next, if they can't keep the meeting was extra, say, entity blinking, that there's nothing, no doubt about what they want. they want a ceasefire. now there are reports that the us has given israel's set amount of
8:53 pm
time. he said simply, no, it can't do 2 more weeks. it has to and now, and they talked about just the 1st in this. you said, look at, let's just because it's 1st, this is the most journalists killed in the conflict, the most un workers, the most medical people, medical workers killed, and the scale of destruction. they said it's simply unprecedented. so the message is very clear and use edge tomorrow. but today, all right, thanks so much patrick call. hi and that from washington dc. let's bring this back to the studio here in the hallway. have model on the shoulder. i'll just hear a senior political analyst joins us on set now. model on listening to what patsy said the message, very clear from that group of our foreign ministers. where does that diplomatic meant to go? now if it's heading, as it seems towards a dead end in the security council, what seems like they're going to go to the un general assembly that's one does have to, of course, does not impose the will of the un and international law the right. absolutely. but it does have kind of a, a model echo a model stand,
8:54 pm
something that's actually resembles more that you want charter than the security council last. but i think also along with the efforts by the un general secretary and the efforts of some 50 plus out of been most the majority of the countries as well as the increasing number of western countries. and the so called countries of the global south, i think there is a momentum building go. and i think america is becoming isolated more and more certainly more than it was back in october 8 as genocide unravels and guys as tens of thousands of guys or perhaps 100000 casualties. by now, i feel to be the cost of this for i think the united states is on its own. more or less. probably a couple of european allies continue to support probably should call them the clients be that as it may uh, the united states now is not in a in good standing. i in fact, uh so i mean, it's
8:55 pm
a good question to ask. how does america fair? 60 days after the war started. clearly, america was and followed by that position originally and internationally on october 6. and then it is today, i think this incredible investment, strategic investment, diplomatic, political, 5 mention investment, 14 plus the 1000000000 commitment to is rise. in addition to sending back craft carriers, arms shipping is read the cost, but the heavy cost of looking ridiculous in the international community. america is, doesn't seem to have gain much out of this, which, which is the question makes you wonder then model one in this situation. i think it's fair to say quite unprecedented if at least quite rare that you've had now. the security council meeting cold by the un secretary general. you've had
8:56 pm
a very clear position taken by the secretary general saying, we need to have a sci fi. he said on monday that the killing in guns that is unparalleled and unprecedented use both those words. we've had the, the lesson from philip. that said that you need the head of underway saying as much, we need a seas file. and you've got this growing as you said, movement which is in embracing mold. and just out of 5 minutes as they reached out to the organization of his stomach conference fondest as others from the global south is a crazy to think all of that diplomatic momentum now might look for something outside of the security council, or even outside the un altogether, well, you know, we've had the, uh, the meetings between the add up for the minister and the chinese leadership at one point. we've just had president putting this in the region a couple days ago. was it yesterday? i think we're, we will probably have
8:57 pm
a bit more momentum outside this us. we can fit counsel on outside the realm of the united states and its european allies. but would that help in the end of the day? because short of our meeting are supporting the palestinians. the only real difference wouldn't be made when the united states use is leverage with this, right? that's why you need now every other possible regional and international power to use establish with the united states in order for it to use this stuff. but it is because that's remember, even if the united states did support what i've seen at the un security council, that doesn't mean that is what i would abide by the next day. we were just discussing how there were some 6 or 7 you on security councils in houston and 1982 . and that was is as longest or something like 70 plus days. you wouldn't get to envision of that but on and it seems a bit. all right, so the remains to be seen model on the shot of thanks so much for your analysis on that. that brings us to the end of the show,
8:58 pm
