6:03 pm
but it still 6 and a half square kilometers in size, that's about the size of london heathrow airport. let's go the public about assume joins us now from it. off in southern garza and public, it's a day off to the us veto the security council resolution on the seas far. what fate of the palestinian civilians facing now in these rouse bombardment? the february infect surgery, here is a 1st causes trip had been on. there is many times since the hours of today's meeting with the patient forces had to expand its own with the military operations . the territories crossing deep into areas of cause a city where we're talking about issues in the end of the 2020 palestinians have been killed with those has been injured. have been transferred to us. she felt
6:04 pm
hospital to be treated while others are still trapped under the ripples. now the series of as strikes as well continued on i should. yeah, yeah. neighborhood with 3 residential buildings with flats and with more than 12 palestinians have been killed. now this situation right now will the ground on every mile neighborhood is very difficult that your rating is going to be spending the administrative role included were a number of casualties and it says that there was some bane offers the church. we continue. 1 with intensive strikes on con yuba city on the eastern area, the q b. c isn't trying to expand their a ground to ration in order to control the most vital areas inside the city in order to eliminate the old policy and fights as, as they are trying, as well to destroy old means of life in the area. i thought i'd stay with us for
6:05 pm
a 2nd let spring of use up to speed with the evacuation orders. israel has been issuing that palestinian activists are saying it's really a couple of ethnic cleansing. and the festive palestinian land value of this month is where the army published a map, dividing garza into zones, showing palestinians of what they called safe ivank to. and i evacuation areas in the event of an attack. more than 85 percent of the people of this trip have been false from that homes that living and dying conditions in the south where it is rather stepped off. it's s strikes and the tax. this row has designated the parts of the and the last, the town in the southern corner of the touch, raise the so called safe space event q as i was supposed to seek shelter in the 6 in the hall square i. columbus, a stretch of sandy to right, but it has no shelters, no tents, no health care facilities. now just here a spoke to a palestinian man who took his family from con eunice to the so called safe zone.
6:06 pm
and then in the last see, he described alan, sign it free, unsafe conditions and a lack of essential supplies. more than 60 days, we've been moving to a place to another. and so we, we ended at this point where it's go to them. oh, i see. we came here, we had no clothes, no shelter, no food, no water. so we started gathering some wood and some plastic, which is used already for agriculture use. the purpose is not the humans. so after we did the small shelter, we had some breathing problems with our children. so we had to sleep. sometimes outside the display, plastic tends and sometimes inside the children are suffering from drawing out. uh, lots of diseases because, you know, lots of rubbish is, are thrown around. even though i'm an engineer, i'm educated, i start selling things, you know, so i want to raise my child or bring some, some food folded, some water. so it's a really the investor, i'm looking, i'm looking for the point of view that somebody has to be responsible for us. we're
6:07 pm
paying a price for the, for something we didn't do. maybe others i've made mistakes with what, what are we responsible about? what, what are you waiting for? i'm sure like 33 weeks time people are going to die from diseases. the sure. there's no toilets, there's no water supplies. people are fighting. we've each other for 4 times a gallons of water. all right, so thought i'd call once again joins us from profit and thought we were listening that to somebody talking about the conditions in these so called safe zones. we were running pictures of alcohol, which we have to point out is different from the conditions in the molasses. now people are going to, into a law say one of the areas is rose designated as a safe so, and there's no real infrastructure. what was happening to people that all the able to stay there for very long of the well, it's really ironic to say that this is a safe area because before, when the is
6:08 pm
a of the patient has informed residents of all sorts of areas to move off to the goals a y d, as it's called a safe area. now the operation is taught to come home, this safe area. now these are the occupation i recommend doing is recommending people to the, to a my last area which consider it to be safe. but this area is really as read in the main infrastructure and a means basically city is leaving as even where i remain in public areas without having to leave without having any sufficient amount of food. it means that the best that to die, there's new, a new state whose the gaza strip has to be bought in the kitchen. you own the southern areas, in particular districts right now have become related. now people, even in the district are facing a very remarkable guy. situation or the 1st 2 line,
6:09 pm
all the stuff to i'm to feed as well. now, literally as these, but it has to be as these for occupational constructing v p to move to a mostly it means that you are preparing something, something to the ground in this area as they are trying to choose people to be isolated. now this area doesn't have anything, electricity doesn't have any means even especially to the to be seen to be to, to serve. 6 by the human, certain services to palestinians, the monitoring will be isolated. the utility deprives the basic right size. the situation is the basis they probably date as the gaza strip, as it would be. the same is due to the fact that they are lacking all the basic necessities for living on the deep, very shoes, the military ice, the into the, during the last couple of weeks. and finally, we've seen videos over the last few days of palestinians being stripped,
6:10 pm
kneeling film, this their insulted, and then a to take into as well. some of them are being released. total cost through what you're hearing from them about the treatment they received in captivity. yes, this is where the occupation appears today has released a number you will have been previously arrested. the school being for the most of the church where, you know, people have the beach and mistreated by don't to patient as they have been subject . 8 to do an investigation and they were living on the very severe, a drastic humanitarian circumstances. and they have been accused that they are actually ages with most of the organizations besides going as a boost people were taking movement as soon. so the news of the district has been at least remaining,
6:11 pm
they were taking choose the united nation and they have been arrested disturbing of the main areas of chavarria. and, you know, these people are, this is one of them, is a part of a senior as well. and they have been severely treated as they are different, the bodies on the muscle, bluetooth to it, and which to send it to be an evaluation of the, the less of the easy way to cry. and that's, i think, submitted inside right? related anything so much thought a couple assume is now the city of that is about often central garza has come on to repeated bombardment in time to a lot. so hospital west off say they receive more than 70, that people in a 160 wounded in just one day. i'll just see it as an a chevy f. as in david by the scene of a licensed attack. no, no, no, you didn't, but what we are in there. oh bella central gaza strip. and this is the also long
6:12 pm
district where these really were plants of attacked a number of buildings and on killing and injuring and number of residents. the straight kids in the early hours of the morning and among the victims are women and children. many displaced people are here in this area, which is real heads described as a safe area. despite that is really war planes targeted palestinian civilians here . i mean, those were still alive and are now trying their best to rescue others trapped under the rubble to treat the wounded and also to look for the dead. the destruction is huge and the mission is very difficult. there's no heavy equipments and everyone, including the civil defense teams, are only using their hands to remove the rubble and to rescue the others. and this isn't the only raid and central cause of this morning on several other rates were launched by these really war planes since the start of the day. yes. let's take a look at the number of his writing solid youths who sustained life altering injuries while fighting him. us as reported by his right in the media about 6,
6:13 pm
the wounded soldiers are being admitted daily by these right. of the armies rehabilitation program. around 5000 have been wounded in the wall so far. the heads of the rehabilitation departments. busy as more than 58 percent have severe injuries to the hands and feet at least $2000.00 disabled due to amputations or injuries. let's go to him on con, live in tennessee for us now. so what kind of impact all the casualties having on moods incentive and towards the rule as well. it seems to be that the support for the will is pretty much holding. so there's a lot of polling going on. for example, these ready to have a chronic it's true, i think tank says that it's in the high and 90 percent people backing the war now. um, we have been speaking to and he's writing, you've made a 300 or less to tells us that's around this figure of about 6055 to 63 people that
6:14 pm
isn't going to really change things. it's when it gets to like the 300 mark. so we might see a lot of his writings change their mind over the cost of the actual world. but is there any public community generally pretty fun, but it changes like, you know, for example, hey, where i am right now. this is hostage square. it's nicknamed also squared by the. ready causes by headquarters of the bring them back. now campaign here there is support for us the spot there is support for bringing, releasing all of the palestinian prisoners in return for bringing back a 100 and. busy 8 hostages, people who are all very clear that they want that people back. so although they do back a little, they understand that they will needs to take place. they all in favor of a safe spot that favor of deceased by the amongst the general is ready. population drops completely, is very, very low. think of something according to all the opposing types of the we've been reading of the last couple of hours. all right,
6:15 pm
we'll leave it. the thanks so much. and ron hon. is there any forces have counted out more rates in the occupied westbank in the lights. this operation, 2 people were arrested in the room on the territory, has seen a growing number of daily raids since the war on guns that began. more than 270 palestinians have been killed in the occupied westbank since october, the 7th, to speak. now to, i'll just say the same bus hobby who joins us now live from the in the occupied westbank. and before we talk about more about the rates, 1st of all saying what has been the palestinian reaction to that v towing the us fees having a view and resolution on a c's? fine. well sammy, there's been anger, frustration. people are disappointed, but no one is surprised. palestinians will tell you that they are not just fighting israel, that they are fighting, they feel the united states in this conflict. it's been going on for decades now in the statement by the policy and president obama, the boss,
6:16 pm
he described the us per position. after you went security council as aggressive and immoral, he said it constitutes a shame that will haunt the us for years to come. he said that the us is a, is complicit in all is really crimes describing it as an accomplice in the crime of genocide and ethnic cleansing. he also said that the decision gives an additional green light to be, is really occupation to continue. it's aggression and his statements in recent days in reaction to what's happening have become more numerous, more frustrated. this is clearly a president who is feeling the squeeze. he was feeling the rowing pressure on him, not just by these really forces, but also frustration with the international community, seemingly unable to do anything to help his people or to help him stand up to these really aggression. because israel is backed up by the united states of a massive power in the middle east, but also the strongest military power. and that frustration is becoming very clear in
6:17 pm
a box of statements day by day. and zine told me about the raids. now tell us about how they're becoming more provocative and some of their actions that that is exactly right. the number of the tensions continued to grow. 2 people were killed in rates today, one of them side and a rate that was yesterday at the all for a refugee count. and one person was killed in a raid in hebron. perhaps most telling on the ways that have been happening right here in the heart of the palestinian government rama is the political capital of the so called palestinian authority. and for 3 days straight, there has been raised here in ramallah where i'm standing now just a couple of days ago. there was an armored is really vehicle here, soldiers on video scene trailer and their guns down that street as well as down that street. and they were here this morning as well. at 7 am a daytime, right? but the rate a couple of days ago when they were here was provocative, especially because where we're standing now, the street is named for old is you're a journalist, trina booklet, who
6:18 pm
a year ago was killed by an israeli. bullard and israeli soldiers were seen at the street or at that monument, taking photographs and videos of themselves at that monument to sharina bleckley memorial dedicated to her after she was killed last year. so that really reflects the lack of sensitivity, the lack of a proper conduct via is really soldiers when they're carrying out these rates and the occupied westbank, there was increasing in sensitivity, dehumanizes ation and humiliation of posting in communities across the occupied westbank on a daily basis. so i think somebody's staying bust of august many say the war and gaza could stretch well into the new year as well as defense minister has said it will be long and difficult. now is very immediate, revolting. the army is estimating it needs another 8 weeks to complete the current stage of operation. well, that could, i can get the united states that's worried about growing international criticism.
6:19 pm
the civilian death, tall island, fisher reports, or the bloody. it's been brutal and intense. and it could go on for 2 more months. it's really media reports. the army wants 3 to 4 weeks to conduct operations in and around 10 units before it concentrates its war on the sofa of gas it. and that could take apart their month. one expect tool, they'll just need a little more could mean a short piece might eliminate, small militants come us. many times we might even capture the lead those of, of how much in gaza. but what is the plan to be on the dates? and by eliminating the police status, the police students in the guys are in the west bank cars, went and probably the region they have, but there might be some technical achievements. but strategically, if is and wants to live in peace with its neighbors. and 1st and foremost with the other students,
6:20 pm
they might extra cosmo home then. then any good israel's defense minister has already spoken about a long and difficult battling garza. and at the end of the c spy, talked about 2 more months of intense fight to melissa bye. for this whole time, i call them as a whole. i expect that at least in the next month or 2 in december and january. and even after that, that they will be intense and powerful fighting the following weekend. so because i knew was not of them, but the idea of the fighting, stretching beyond the end of the year will concerned america. and going through, although it be to a deceased by a call at the united nations on friday, it is august, these really government to wrap up operations before the end of the year. the world wide protests against the war of grown as the number of dead guys that continues to rise until the blinking the us secretary of state has been to israel to speak to the is released about the next stage. and the war when told it could go on to
6:21 pm
january or beyond. the reportedly told the war cabinet. you don't have enough credit of the us and says it hasn't given any firm deadline to the end of the war. even as it is concerned about the growing number of civilian debt is real, has made it clear you can cite the what it wants no matter how long it takes i would say, sure, i'll just do that and i'll keep like east jerusalem. i'm joined now by model on the shower. i'll just say it was senior political. i'm let's good to have you with us. so we want to talk a little bit model on about what the strategy will be going forward, especially in light of the statements. we heard from the us and the deputy ambassador to the united nations where he basically said no sees fine. that would leave him standing or am i asked him how. what does that mean on ending open ended? well, yeah,
6:22 pm
i think is that is ready for an open ended war. it would come under pressure by the united states. it will come on the economic pressure because there is a cost to this war. but unfortunately, the united states is providing a diplomatic immunity and is providing for the time being perhaps $14000000000.00 to cover up for the water costs thus far along want if time for lose want many minutes, we strive just a warning that the goal of completely eradicating hamas is simply not going to happen and off the 2 months, it certainly hasn't happened. what we want know, right. i mean, look at the look how it all started. it all started by both, nothing, you know, and by then compared to come us to isis tend to our guy though the, what i guess i'll card has gone on for 20 years. the war against better has gone on for that much and it's still continuing the war against the rock $110.00 for 10 years. so i think is there a go? so there's it's water goes to about
6:23 pm
a senior is even more important than america's war against. i've got a son here it off it consumes. there's an existence of what i bought for them. and i tell you, i think is right as an entity, as a project that feels more at ease during war, then it does viewing piece time or so cold peace process time you know, from 1991, 4 to 12 dozen years or so. is there a change 6 or 7 governments during the peace process time to from show me or to to be in the pattern still nothing. yeah. how to box the shuttle and to all mark it, change 7, bright ministers. right. and then when it stopped with the peace process and came nothing, you know, we have one prime minister for 13 years. in fact, it's more stable is there is more stable when it's locked in a piece in a piece time or piece process time. it does not have an issue with being a state of the war because since its creation, it's been a state of tort. forget us and state. so the minute the establishment and the far
6:24 pm
right then the fanatics and the fascists. and these are the government, all of them feed on violence and they would want to have a stick, the war soul can, they can just story goes on. and they can re, okay, if i the west bank and kick out the policy and will sort of thing understand this more and more supplements, double, triple the supplements there and start to squeeze out the punish digits of to what extent would the us go along with that is, that sort of scenario and us interests. what do we know if by that is gonna be there, you know, in a year's time, we don't know what we know is that he books himself and behind nothing. you know, he bid nothing now and these are the government to buy him some time meeting. just give him some things like him and if they're in this, that's another thing. i agree with him one to 2 states idea anything that he can sell the rest of the world so he can keep shield that goes wrong. but they won't give him. i think i'm still, he's bucks. make himself against that behind. that's a deal. and that's what explains the volt yesterday. so for the time being, the united states understands that this kind of a warfare as they for this,
6:25 pm
i guess i've got done. i've got this done to 20 years. if this guy is going to take 20 months, then that'd be 20 months. i think is it for the time being is i said there's what it does. it must do and the world can see it wherever it's once. okay, but this is not the pre all slow days in terms of the global balance of power. so coming back to the baffle field along that list can drank out. does it risk dragging in more countries into this conflict though? do you see that sort the scenario that people were talking about in the 1st weeks off? so that's that, that's not so like say any more for the time big. what me see is that the wrong is this distance it gets out from the scenario board and received the united states remains with its deployment of aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines and still pushing and pumping arms to is are and so is there it is continuing where the war and i think and so many ways is right, as i said, needs the war for the time being in order to establish a number of its own red lines, right?
6:26 pm
including settlements, ethnic cleansing, and so on, so forth. so i think it doesn't have much of a problem with that. it's even originally, yes, america warns that on the long term it will start losing allies of potential allies . that's normalize relations with these, right. but for the time being, we're not seeing that. now, we are not for the time we were talking about months, perhaps one months, 2 more months of the land and vision, and then to work with change to something else, but have something that looks like more of the incursions security zones and squeezing the palestinians out slowly but surely, i think that's kind of a, i'm not going to court low intensity warfare, but whatever the next stage of award is going to be is what is going to decide and it's going to go by it and it doesn't care what the rest of the what's as if trump steps in, in november or january 2025. that's where you're going to have another online. no, i task, that was what supports them and so forth. what do you need to do be a whole different ball game so much want to talk about, but we're going to leave it here for now. perhaps some slides. so thanks so much my
6:27 pm
. the one be shot is still ahead on al jazeera boy called in for support. his palestinians meet the german photographers says, think todd said, for his views will tell you about attendance, the boy called companies accused of banking as well. during the conflict the hello. we have developing cloud pushing some very heavy right across the default, so of origin taylor at the moment. for the moment, it's down across southern most pos exhibit where the system pay, which will roll its way through the front, top towards power g, y at the eastern side of the present level. make his way 3 flick some right across 3 or 4 times. but it's the system down towards the south and lucky, $2.00 costs are right across 10 sales used to having the fault is the cold stanley

6:29 pm
humanity has opened the gates of hell or in those seats is having orlando's effects . as the world discusses how to reduce emissions. supposing an existential threat to humanity, a new oil rush is displacing. you've got the people empower, investigates, the relationship between the mikey oil giants of the global noise and the developing nations of the global south. crude mistake. talk to of, to on just the the, [000:00:00;00]
6:30 pm
the, [000:00:00;00] the, [000:00:00;00] the welcome back to watching out just to time to recap on headlines. now. israel is coming civilians in garza to shelter in a so called safe zone in the south west town of in las vegas. but it's just 6 and a half square kilometers in size. that's about the size of london grow apples along . so hospitalized central garza says it's receive $71.00 bodies, 3 strikes,
6:31 pm
some of that is by the neighborhood. thousands more is being killed in arabs showing on on unit or roughly in the south. some of the 100 also palestinian men seemed stripped and blindfolded by is ready for susan garza earlier this week and spoken about the whole deal. they detail torture, including physical and psychological abuse. for us has been widely condemned officer veto to drop the resolution of view and calling for an immediate humanitarian sees foreign garza. so team members of the security council voted in favor of the draft buquet of stains have since you before the votes on friday, un secretary general and tony baton. i said, garza is that breaking point for a below is added to the online use like our digest to joins be now here in the studio. so 1st of all, well i look forward. obviously the, the vote happened the retail happened. let's look for the what sort of reaction off them off is the us use of the tow generating now, is you analyze the,
6:32 pm
the political scene? yeah, well, i think a, your report touched on it that there's a lot of anger and growing and anger. i was just at a seminar earlier today where the people at that seminar arrow some all over the middle east, you know, expressing real anger now and american ways that perhaps we have not seen before. there is no surprise that the americans would veto. but perhaps what is building out is as we see the pictures, the continuing pictures and really a sense of revulsion growing worldwide. and what is or isn't doing and in, in the strip. and, you know, at some point there has to be a stop. there has to be a ceasefire, but the question is, how are the americans simply allowing nothing yahoo to continue? and i believe that somehow he will reach an end to point that will allow the
6:33 pm
americans say ok enough. i really feel that that end point is getting further and further into the distance, which means sadly, the longer the americans delay the plug, if you will, the more, the casually, the appalling can actually count will rise in the eyes and eyes. that when we take into consideration that around almost a 100 countries co sponsored this draft resolution that was put together in less than 24 hours. does it highlights the anger or the off position that the us is now putting itself in front of is, is much greater than just the regional arab countries. indeed it is. and i think that's an interesting point that you raised that the u. s. is finding itself increasingly isolated. yeah, i, i'm based in london, the u. k. i'm staying on the un security council resolution. but the world itself
6:34 pm
is looking at the situation and i think increasingly b, u, k, u s, they're feeling the isolation and the pressure will build on them. as i say, is a timeline here. there's talk of perhaps this thing going on for another 2 months. we can only think at the risk body count at the end of that 2 months and the destruction absolute destruction of, of, of hospitals and universities of, of in other infrastructure. if this is allowed to go on for, for 2 months, the blogs at the you and us opposition to a canvas diplomatic momentum that spill top advance anyway, inside the u. n. or in all the avenues, i think that he went to a very difficult place, isn't that because people are looking at the you and, and saying, where are you, the impotence of you and is so clear now. and, and it's interesting that has this impotence grow is, and as a catastrophe grows, people are going to look, i think, for other solutions, pressure will grow. i would love to hear like what, what,
6:35 pm
what would be the other avenues or solution? i would look to europe in your opinion, to mount a much more coherent and thoughtful strategy in terms of forcing us these far. but when they do anything in the face of, of a on ryland's web position that, that the americans themselves are the ones that have to move. really they move by pressure from you're probably not when they be moved by the world wide revulsion perhaps. will there be their allies in the gulf, particularly the se in the moratti's will leave with pressure because they need to . and i, you know, would say it, and we're, we're here until or that's customer has played a very important role. catherine is an influence and perhaps caught her can provide some road forward. we're desperately looking for road forward and i think it has to come from various elements, various pressure points. i don't however, look to view in to deliver that pressure. well,
6:36 pm
what do you make of the argument that although it was veto the fact that this extra general cold, this special meeting of the security council, you might ultimately keep the pressure going up to at least schultz and the timeline on this will. or yeah, we do hope that that is the case and that's the price. what terrace was was gathering. i don't think there was thought anything other than say americans would veto distracted. there would be the right. so he probably knew it was coming to the saw. i'm challenging, what was his, did he have a long game? the longer game wouldn't be to put pressure in the america to embarrass the americans internationally. and for the stand they've taken. i think that would be the longer game that he has to play. but as i said earlier, the time element is really critical here because there's so many people are dying on an hourly basis that you know, this cannot be allowed to continue. because if it does, then we are looking at in the beyond the ethnic cleansing,
6:37 pm
we're looking at genocide knows what the thousands of un experts said on november, the 16th calling this genocide into making anyway fail with we've got to leave it hits. so nice to talk to you. thanks for coming at adam bloomberg is an office based in berlin who spent the past 2 years in palestine on the photography assignment. but he's come on this right for his views and work and recently had some of these shows cancelled his his story in his own woods. my name is ivan bloomberg. i am an artist, an educator, and an activist stuff and shows all over the world and all my shows in germany have been cancelled. i spent the last 2 years in palestine photographing or the olive trees of palestine, the oldest tree we photographed quote of, but we is 4500 years old. i found myself accused of being hateful mtc my 2 weeks of to my mother's death and my mother was
6:38 pm
a survivor of the holocaust. so i just buried my mother who had such 1st hand experience at the heart of cost and came back to these lifeless accusations. and the 2 times i felt most and its threatened and ex essential work, that is um commemoration that happened last year of crystal. now i was holding a sign that i made it said jews against fascism everywhere. i was approached by a group of jews who were also there to to commemorate crystal enough. i was physically threatened by one of these people. now the idea of a g u i to a crystal enough commemoration being threatened violently threatened by another jew and having to seek refuge with the german police. is one of the most ironic things i've heard. and the 2nd time i felt most threatened was at a commemoration for the knuckles. within seconds, there were maybe 3 or 4,
6:39 pm
you know, very big, black german white policeman on top of me and beat me quite severely. and hon cost me um the fact that a jew from a holocaust dividing family can stand accused by the states of germany who is or who is not an anti semite. i should be the last people who uh, who can throw that accusation around with sonya my us and knox is the communications direct. uh, jewish voice for peace joins us now from philadelphia in the us. good to have you with us. so i can uh, bring you into that friday and i'll see the question of do you see this conflict? as for the shrinking the space for criticism always ready policy even from jews? well, hi family and thank you for that question. thank you for having me on the show today . so i think,
6:40 pm
i think that is certainly the attempt of these are in the government and the organizations and individuals who support it is absolutely to try to use the current conflict and the surrounding climate as a way to intimidate and silence. anybody who stands up for palestinian rights, but i would argue that actually the opposite is happening. and we're seeing the, you know, the dozens and dozens of protests that are happening all across the united states. and europe more broadly organized by jews, demanding a ceasefire, demanding an end to blind us support to these around the government, and actually calling in strong defense for palestinian rights. all right, now bear with us for a moment. sonya because i think it's important to kind of point out the timeline on the trajectory we've seen on for a while, even before this conflict back in 2021 israel's prime minister. but you mean that's in yeah. have this view about the i c c. when it ruled,
6:41 pm
it has territorial jurisdiction to investigate allegations of war crimes against israel. when the icpc investigates as well for faked war crimes. this is your anti semitism, the quote established to present to try cities like the nazi holocaust against the jewish people, is now targeting the one state of the jewish people. first at the regents leaks, things that when jews live in our homeland, this is the 2nd. it seems that when democratic israel defend itself against doris murder, our children rocked our cities were committing another. or if the icpc refuses to investigate brutal dictatorships like you want in syria who commit to rustic atrocities almost daily when we have that sort of sentiment that even the idea of investigating war crimes, if it involves israel,
6:42 pm
that in itself is anti semitic. now what does that do in terms of claiming that the, the definition of the mental of defending symmetric people, defending jews. and it's an incredibly irresponsible and quite frankly terrifying response. what it does is it dilutes and tarnishes the reality of anti semitism and death is semitism is in fact he dangerous threat to jewish people and we are seeing it on the rise right now in the united states. and we can dismantle it, and we are dismantling it. but it has nothing to do with the state of israel and the, the whole risk actions of these early military and any government anywhere in the world can and should be held accountable for how it treats as population. certainly the ones that it hasn't been military occupation is the state. the state of israel
6:43 pm
is justifiably accused of war crimes. is current cabinet ministers are making genocidal claims and threats. and the actions on the grounds speak for themselves. hospitals are being bombed, how many thousands of children have been killed, and instead of being able to focus on that. so the accusations of anti semitism are being used irresponsibly and as a distraction so that those of us who are in the united states and standing up for palestinian rights are being censored and oppressed and unable as a result to effectively or not unable. but it makes it that much harder for us to effectively dismantle anti semitism which we are seeing on the rise coming from white supremacy when you say that well being a price, tell us a little bit about how your organization is suffering because i understand that some universities have suspended your organization from campuses, right. i from what i've read that have you taken paulton and the thing that i mean do you all jews so i mean the accusation that you'll supporting the killing of
6:44 pm
innocent jews i call the match and that's something that your organization but in any shape or form endorse, i know of of, of course not. we have been fighting again against anti semitism, a long side every step of the way, fighting for palestinian freedom and look and liberty. but we are absolutely facing accusations about that. we are in some ways of anti semitic, and it is an yes, absolutely, but large, our student chapter icon, the university has been suspended for the semester. and at the same time though, our opinion, goal council made up of rabbis and have been a students is growing our membership is growing. the number of american jews who are coming into the streets, day after day after day after day, is just growing 2 days ago on the 1st night of hanukkah, rabbi's legs, thousands of people in the center of new york city and hanukkah celebration demanding a cease fire and calling for a future,
6:45 pm
we're both palestinians and israelis can live in a quality and safety and freedom. so i'm wondering if, if there's something of a struggle going on for jewish identity and the rights and the freedom to speak for it. for those jews who do not identify as people who would defend every single policy of israel and who don't identify as zion this, i mean perhaps view as we should remind view is that when design is present, the guy that was very much my nazi and not representative of the, the mainstream, jewish, religious thinking, all mainstream jewish life. right. oh, absolutely. and in fact, as long as there has been a design is program to take over land that was occupied by palestinians for from here and turn it into an apartheid state. as long as there has been design is program, there has been jewish opposition and i thought you would help position as you know what williams and his now i would argue can very much on the rise. but,
6:46 pm
but do you membership of jewish choice for peace, which is an anti zionist jewish organization, ranges from people who are in their eighty's and ninety's to college students and the numbers are only growing. i think what we are seeing right now in jewish families, all across united states, are really hard conversations at the sh about table. and, you know, over the phone when you're in a protest, when you're not at a protest between not just the generations, but even just people at the same level. having conversations what, what does it mean right now to be jewish? because we were raised, i was raised, most american jews were raised. that being jewish means that you stand up for social justice, you try to repair the world to come along. you believe that selim elo keen, which is that every single human life is sacred in the eyes of god. and if you believe that, then how on earth can you support these really government right now as it is inactive genocide? all right, so i think the boots for the jewish population and i think we're seeing
6:47 pm
a big turning point. all right, thank you. sonya for your time is good to talk to sonya my son knox, the over the past 2 months, demonstrations of being held around the world in support of palestinians and to condemn as well as the bombing of casa thousands of protesters gathered in london on sides. they calling for a common and seas file, some health science with woods free palestine and, and the siege fail. so chanted the slogan from the river to the c panel. assigned will be free. oh correspondence, i said, so is that the protest to joins us now. live from london. so how is it shaping out there? as you can see it behind me, sammy, this is the main stage for the protest today. i'll have to say the weather is that pretty cold and windy today?
6:48 pm
however, i was seeing very large numbers of crowds may be not as large as that. the last 7 weeks, 7 set of days. uh, because this is the 8th thats a day in a row that we have knowledge protests in the lumber and other cities in the u. k. the main trunk here is c as while now. and there is a, at a very high level of anger among the professors at the position of the u. k. government abstaining from voting yesterday and the security council on props. resolution often quoted an immediate cease firing gauze up. i have to say that i have the product as being largely peaceful today, although there's just being uh, an arrest. uh, i could see some policeman arresting professor lady, and we don't know about the reasons yet, but i can show you the, the best situation then. now most that if you could please show us the, this group over that with the police. and there's no clear reason for that. the
6:49 pm
rest yet the police have not issued anything or made any statements. but the generally speaking, the process has been very faithful and we haven't seen any reports of, of any other arrests. but uh, in terms of numbers, the police officers have folders of record that they estimate the numbers on the streets of london today to be. and that tens of thousands sent me back to you. all right, thank you so much for the update. i sort of saw we of how the boy called divestment and sanctions will be the 1st movement. the target seized by the occupation has been gaining attention and global protests against the war and gaza social media science such as x and take talk and saw naming brands they say of ties to as well. some governments are also taking action. as laura con reports, the boy who israel has become
6:50 pm
a running cry in protest around the world. he's looking to see the smoking wall. we're providing support for the people that publish something here. at the same time, we want to learn government to color. it was important to try to to, to see, oh wow. really? yep. the video of having no, don't stop it. we will point to the light is rose until the israel's will on garza has thrust the b d. s. movement back into the spotlight established in 2005, it cools for a boy called of is writing an international companies involved in israel's violations of palestinian rights. it's those who the provides a list of products to avoid. on the books,
6:51 pm
people are also downloading apps to check if so, businesses support is rated products. there is a global exit or is rolled to suppress activism and support for the boy up the investment in functions come find including through bringing in legislation to try to suppress subjectivism and probably one of the things we're having to do in the u . k. is funds to boycott law that is specifically on the public bodies like local government pension screens, a 6 to stop them taking divestment action. so at the moment we have a huge possible, but i think that speaks to the concerns the israel holds up, the government holds about the potential momentum in these current pines that anti bully caught spill, which is making its way through the pressures parliament says, thoughts, boy, caught so the vestments by public bodies would potentially be liable to
6:52 pm
investigation and falling under the legislation. israel has long accused. the movement of anti semitism bought many of making moves to hit companies where it hurts last month. the tuckers parliament's band nestle, i'm coca cola products, products restaurants to and to book donald's has been under attack of to it's, it's ready franchise of the free meals to soldiers. and some tickets to the mcdonalds corporate office itself in egypt to fully buy at least 70 percent. since of all started, it is pledged $650000.00 a day to gauze and business. still improving install books in the us. the coffee franchise is being targeted, offered students a union for social media posts supporting palestinians. the union has since counted, sued, renewed attention. obedience comes is protested to mount a public sci fi garza hoping that companies speeding the pins,
6:53 pm
will apply pressure on political leaders to end israel's will, on gauze of laura, come out to 0 along with a lot of hotels, the co founder of the boy called divestment and sanctions movement that promotes economic sanctions against israel. he says the boy, you don't need to operate strategically for it to be effective. so we never pushed those long lists of hundreds of companies because it is not strategic. it's not useful. very, very, very few people around the world to kinda keep up with all those companies for board cards to be effective, as was proven, it does not have for constructive in the us civil rights movement to be effective at strategic. we've got to focus on a few strategic targets and make an example out of them. so the other companies with the complexity into instructional part dice, that's a good on the other concept of price. there are consequences. that's why we have criteria for selecting vs targets upon our website. this movement dot net,
6:54 pm
we explain those criteria and we give examples of the worst companies that most complicit companies and to go after what are to what cost or to the best problem as so as to teach other is less than a bit. yes, it's not just about feeling good or venting out anger, it's actually changing reality on the prompt, we succeeded to push separately multinational massive corporations all the best rate of the economy because they were involved in really good projects. g for us stores, largest security companies, had to westcan power to be very through the all the defense conglomerate, last contracts, worth over $20000000000.00 over 7 years after the base rent is international day for climate action. and island countries are demanding an end to the use of fossil fuels that the comp 28 summits into by calling continuing use of oil and gas. a threat to the country is very existence for many island nations. and
