10:10 pm
unless he says they will be pressuring that us to hold israel accountable. we've also called for them to pressure and call out, is there any army on the rules of engagement or for them them so that they can stop vista regarding things like breast insignia and make sure that the investigation that they have done. i've been on c panel and rapid but also if they're not done properly, internationally prosecuted, including the nation and get them on a quote. right. so let me just finally ask to um, uh on uh about another call that you've made no cpg called for an independent investigation into the killing of another. i'll just say we're a journalist. you mentioned him a moment ago. comes at the door and come or mind most the faucet or yeah, can you let us know what the latest is on that when we, we have included them a spot of at least as a homes piece,
10:11 pm
among the 85 zone that is that we have counted on to confirm that been killed and on deal deal really enjoying the lives and some of them we had the strong evidence that there is, it is going to be out of me comfortability and that includes the study abroad. i text that i've been negative such as 0, but also precise on target the that that's including shooting those on his card as your homes. even their families are still receiving threats. and that has happened with another of his ears on his other goal was the last time it is and is available, but we're going for all of these to be investigated. but by thursday, the ones that we see a discount for liberty to make sure that the temperature naples are held accountable. and we want to tell you what else is happening across the gaza strip in hon. eunice. the situation in around nicer hospital is getting more and more desperate is really army has destroyed the northern gate and wall of the hospital
10:12 pm
complex. it has besieged. the facility for weeks is the biggest hospital in southern gaza. is really forces of told this place people sheltering there to evacuate the premises, but those people have come under fire and a number of people have been killed. 500 patients and medical staff are believed to be trapped inside the naso hospital, conflicts they've been told to stay. medical supply and equipment stores at the complex have been partially destroyed. some of inch of aid reports. motor tax on one of the few medically facilities in north because it after being besieged for months, nothing hospitably was damaged by is really forces and some parts called fight with each means generators at the hospital and have run out of fuel. as a result, those are values, rating attacks are also dying, or there is little cutting. putting the advancing is really soldiers. instead of go hospitals,
10:13 pm
stop those seeking shelter and snipers get everyone who enters out the eventually they read the building and risk medical stuff and doctors. those will be released to the torture health care like much else and garza has been decimated overnight. ambulance is the one speed israel fade of wounded liquid, short stuff, medical facilities that are overwhelmed, the patient and survivors, the heart of fine details of the children. so i just talked to them, you'll be shot, my son, he's only 14 years old. he got a bullet like this one right into his chest. i don't believe he'll survive. my daughter's brain was blown out. i tried to comfort her before she died. israel says it's targeting homeless spite is enough or a city previously designated as a safe. so had a standing women and children say that's a lie. on the books in stone is really tongues have been showing us the front door
10:14 pm
and windows were destroyed and we were forced to take shelter in the staircase. we got ourselves together and came out waving a white flag is rarely sold. yours arrested my son into all the young men. they stripped off their clothes. we were given 2 minutes to leave. the area of bullets and destruction is all that's left and every day brings more emotional testimonies . another way is and then in the middle of the night, i heard the sounds of helicopters, fund digits, drones, and miss all around. everyone was picture fine at that moment. as i had no idea where to hide, when i heard a place close to my uncle's residence was, had a rush there to chicken, found remains of human bodies all over the place. i could vaguely discern the bodies of children and women. those women and children make up most of the 100000 palestinians, killed or wounded in his veins. one does, the survivors have been displaced multiple times to multiple states. the ones only to be attacked multiple times. the knoxville, for the homes were bombed,
10:15 pm
we went to our homes and found that it was completely destroyed. the whole block was flat and we came to the school here and found that it was fun to try to find a place in the school. there was no place we wrecked it, attend and settled in it. each tent has at least 15 people in it. i know got, as i said, just the military operation, the roof of the major military operation route. but even the us president who provides unequivocal support, billions and aid, and many of the bombs being dropped and gaza, as admitted israel is getting civilians to many to many of the over 27000 policies killed in this conflict, haven't isn't civilians, children, biden's words don't match his actions, something allies within the a you have pointed out. well, if you believe that too many people are being killed, maybe you should provide less arms. as israel's watering gaza drugs on, there seems to be noise insight to the salvation bombing and kidding of palestinians,
10:16 pm
and no consequences for the perpetrators some of and javi and other there. let's go back to topic on the ground in the process of more on what's happening. it nicer in the hospital has been under siege for almost 3 weeks now. tar. what is the latest information that you have on what's going on inside the building? oh yes, it will indeed we can clearly see how the situation in the, in the nasir hospital had been completely digital, get your rates at an unprecedented critical levels where these very forces had to complete it right now. so round thinking law smart men to come facility as they have destroyed another and gates alongside with some parts of the world of the hospital as they have been also shooting anyone who is moving inside this facility as the also the is very forces had been using within the past few hours, different military, quite cool drones with loud speakers informing residents,
10:17 pm
and also medical teams to flee um to get out from another hospital to another location until now medical teams need the full so know the, the, the back, the, the vacuum use that on site, which patients have been allowed to get out till this very moment as these very forces had sent them a number of palestinian of deputies being completely hand costs they had as had they had been sent to the people inside the hospital, informing them with the necessity to see the hospital and not to remain any more inside this medical complex. and this is absolutely might be an introductory for something big a might happen within the coming hours of days in terms of in storming this medical facility regarding our similarly to what happened before in the nose and also incense. so gone to the city where these hospitals had been completely stalled, and being, gro dentist has the scenario that the majority of causes here i really terrified the power from happening, especially that the hospital is keeping and providing medical treatments for
10:18 pm
hundreds of patients. all this very moment and the are no, yes, are reading through our sites. it's, i'm going to have, i'm going to have to jump in, respectfully, because we have the us presidential bite and speaking from the white house, because even as we focus on the conflicts and gods in ukraine, we must not take her. i offer national security challenges in the pacific is the responsibility of a great nation, and we are a great nation at the rest of the world looks to. and i mean that the rest of all looks to us. the states already hired for americans occurred before this bill was passed and settled last night in recent days. so states of risk, and that's because the former president has said a dangerous and shocked him, a franklin on american signal to the world just a few days ago. trouble gave an invitation to put him to invade some of our, our nato allies. he said, even now i didn't spend enough money on defense. he would encourage russia to quote,
10:19 pm
do whatever the hell they want and of quote. can you imagine a former president not est, saying that the whole world heard the worst. so you see me know the present, our histories ever bowed down to a russian dictator. let me say this is clearly as i can. i never will. for god's sake, it's dump and shameful. it's dangerous, it's on america. and america gives us word. it means something. when we make a commitment, we keep it. and nato is a sacred commitment. donald trump looked at this as if it's a bird. when he looks at nato, he doesn't see the alliance that protects america in the world. he sees that protection rack. you don't understand the nato's bill on a fundamental principles of freedom, security and national sovereignty. because her chum, principal was never matter. everything is transactional. you don't understand that
10:20 pm
the sex and commitment we've given worked for us as well. in fact, covered, remind trump and all those would walk away from nato. article 5 has only been evoked once, just want to know nato history and it was done to stand with america. after we were attacked on $911.00. we should never forget it. you know, our adversaries of long sought to create correction, the alliance. the greatest hope of all those of which america harm is for nato to fall apart. so you can be sure that they all cheered when i heard donald trump heard what he said. i know this. i will not walk away. i can't imagine any other president walking away, for as long as i am president of putting the tax in nato allies, united states will defend every inch of nato territory. because of this, let me say this before. our nation stands out on inflection point inflection point in history,
10:21 pm
where the decisions we make now are going to determine the course of our future for decades to come. this is one of those moments. and i say to the house members, house republicans to go to the side are going to stand up for freedom, oregon to side with terror and to any you stand with you crazy. gonna stay with putting we stand with america, or trump, publix and democrats who the senate came together to send the message. if you did, you do world. it's time for the house. we probably could do the same thing. to pass this bill immediately to stand for decency, stand for democracy to stand up. so, so call leader, hell ben, a week, even american security. and i mean it's a 3 way history is watching. history is watching. and most like this. we have to
10:22 pm
remember who we are with united states for america. the world is looking to us. there's nothing beyond our capacity. we act together. in this case, acting together includes acting with our nato allies and god bless you all, my god protectors pieces, and i promise i'll come back and answer questions made it so that's what it was. okay, we can go now to elsie's 0 is white house correspondent. kimberly how good. kimberly, i think you heard this as, as we did, we cut into bite and speaking just as he was saying, quote were a great nation, the rest of the world looks to us. and so there are 2 topics here and, and so, so we've got to discuss these. uh, they're, they're separate but connected. so you're going to walk us through it. what we heard was a broadside by joe biden, against donald trump for his recent comments on nato. let's start there us.
10:23 pm
yeah, uh what the us president, i mean you've got to remember this is a president that is running for re election. he wants to wear the 2nd term in the white house and a file appear. it says it looks like he's running against the form or occupant of the white house. and that is donald trump. it looks like it's going to be another match up of what we saw and the previous election. and so you've got to remember it in that context. that what we're hearing and what we're seeing is but just that. and so in many ways this is a start speech. but also what we're, we know is, is that what donald trump says has a lot of impact on other people that are also running for re election. and that is members of the house of representatives. and they are listening to donald trump. and donald trump has said very clearly that what he believes is that when it comes
10:24 pm
to this legislation that when it comes to form a bit, maybe this should be a loan. it shouldn't actually be what he sees as a handout. and so that's what he's referencing there is that all of this money in this $95000000000.00 is passed by the senate. that has in terms of 60000000000 for you craze fight. because russia 14000000000 for israel, 9200000000 and mandatory and aid. but donald trump doesn't think that should just be handed out that this should be in the form of a loan. and that's how a lot of the house of representative members are seeing it. too, or at least that's how they're going to campaign on it. come november. okay, so this bill that joe biden talked about has some key funding. we're talking about tens of billions of dollars, but ukraine and a little over $10000000000.00 of us financial aid for israel. this is key to funding biden's foreign policy priorities, right? supporting ukraine against russia,
10:25 pm
and also supporting israel. and what are the chances that this gets passed because there's a lot of opposition to this in the house, and he's now calling on congressmen and women to actually pass it right now. it's looking very slim and here's why not only because of the lumen president presence of donald trump, but also because the house speaker speaker johnson is saying, we're not even going to debate this. we're unlikely to even vote on this. that means the way that things become law in the united states. it's dead on arrival. it's passed in the us senate and we should point out as past what's the support of senate republicans? 22. in fact, this makes it bi partisan legislation, but it has to also pass in the lower chamber and then it has to come here to the
10:26 pm
white house and be signed into law. none of that can happen. it can be signed into law unless it also passes in the house of representatives. and if it's not going to be voted on that it's not going to have to pass. and so that's a big problem. can't have it passive, it's not going to be debated. and so here's what the president to say. he's saying this is a moment, a pivotal moment for america to show leadership in the world. why does he want us to have this leadership shown? because he wants not only for america to take the, the, the, the forwards down, but he was the other. they, the allies in nato to also pony up some money to. all right, kimberly how can thank you very much for the context around that for the explanation and for what happens next. thank you. kimberly. as a recent survey by the associated press and the n o r c has revealed it half of us adult si. israel's war on gaza as overly aggressive approval for president biden's . handling of the war has dropped a 31 percent that was compared to 34 percent in november last year. 6 out of 10
10:27 pm
democrats are dissatisfied with biden's approach. the war, especially young and non white democrats, and israel's military actions in gaza are also unpopular among both republicans and independents. that's a significant change from 3 months ago. joining us, we'll have to discuss this from washington. dc is zayna as while we hutchison director of development and expansion for the american arab anti discrimination committee said that it's good to talk to you. um i want to take the take the temperature with you. we've spoken before. what is the mood right now in the public discourse beyond these poles on how people feel about the way biden's handling israel's foreign gaza? a look, i mean things have not changed because our demands are very clear. we have demanded that there is an immediate cease fire and all of these demands are, are not just clear, but there are coming to a place of justice and rights and also centering post indians and the police to
10:28 pm
many people on the ground in palestine. so the by dumpster has not moved an inch on any of it's just like we heard in his speech right now. all of this is basically what i heard is talking points, fear mongering and hypocrisy. and he has been feeling the same narrative over and over again. without really achieving any substance where the people have repeatedly advised them and told him and his administration that in order for the movement to actually re calibrate, if you will, our demands and actually have conversations or even listen to them in a less than critical way. at this point, they have to call for a ceasefire. we need to see significant change on the ground last night and we just turned that analysis from, from the correspondence earlier. the bill that passed the senate is extremely dangerous and the fact that it was able to pass the senate should bring a concern to everyone, the 14000000000 in addition to the funding under what is already what exactly you need to explain your point of view. there why do you say that bill is extremely
10:29 pm
dangerous? right? because, i mean the, the, the genocide is still ongoing. we are still supporting israel. the united states is still supporting us real. in fact, the, by the administration just recently by himself just recently said ok, the invasion by saying just basically be gentle, make sure your plans are right. so how does that way? he doesn't want to see to be fair. he says he doesn't want to see an invasion of rasa if there isn't a plan for how to deal with the, with the civilians with palestinian civilians as one has that ever stopped israel or the united states from actually doing what they wanted to do with regards to the ethnic cleansing, of how the center for this to midland. this as well. as i said earlier, this is all talking points. and this is why the bill is dangerous in particular because we're still used to hearing talking points and, and sort of the get rigor teaching of what these things that people want to hear. but then on the ground. but that's on the ground, are undeniable. there are there, the military raids on all of the gaza strip have continued best. our vision has
10:30 pm
continued. even the basic entrance of entry of age and to gaza has not been allowed the way we want it to be. so, you know, it's all hypocrisy. it's all language, what we want to see is action on the ground and he can say he wants to see plans all he wants, but it doesn't change the fact that we know for a fact that the us is not just complicit. his administration is not just implicit, is actively involved in the genocide and the god, the stress they know, we write out the numbers, you know, approval rating for how biden is handling this war in gaza. and it dropped from 34 percent approved. so it's pretty low, 34 percent approved in november to 31 percent. now that tells me 2 things that the approval is low, but it also hasn't crashed. how do you read that? i actually think this is unprecedented in terms of a movement in terms of people standing up to the establishment is in terms of
10:31 pm
people who are really recognizing the power that they have in the american political system. despite many years, we have been tokenized ignored and used for political game of both party and by elected officials at the expense of our rights and our people for decades. and obviously this doesn't just apply to air supposed to be, and most of this applies to most minorities in the us. but now with this movement that we've seen, it is no longer business as usual. that's why we're not meeting with the, the administration. that's why we are continuing our protest and disruptions because enough is enough. the people have spoken and this is a real democracy, then they will listen to the people that are speaking. we're not looking at necessarily pulling numbers, if you will, that just by what's happening in on the street, why the pools are important is purely political and where the movement is coming from is based on the principles and demands for justice and rights. can you say you're not meeting with the administration?
10:32 pm
i have a question for you on, on political tactics here, which is the, the, the democratic voters may not like how binding is handling this. but ultimately, if their choice on election day in november of this year, if their choice is between vitamin trump and one of their priority is to support the palestinians, do you really think they would choose to punish by and by voting for trump? i mean, the premise of the question is actually incorrect because it isn't by didn't make it trump because in a democracy you have a multitude of options. and in the united states come november, we don't just have bite and trump, we have other options. and if we are to continuously talk about the democracy yet, unless you vote for the lesser to e mail keeps coming up, then we need to request to the soul of the parties and where there's a what, what democracy is going up. because the people need to have choice, need to have options and if by the end of trump are only 2 options, is it really a democracy? and quite frankly, we do have better options than vitamin trump. if that is the question, right?
10:33 pm
it's not a matter of, i mean, using democracy to benefit the people doesn't mean voting with the ruling elite it to me is exercising your vote and exercising your voice to elevate. what is important to your community, to our community and to the american people and the i want, i want to push on this a little bit because i completely take your point about about how, how you express your political priorities. but i, i have to still reiterate the fact that come november, the choice mainly will be between likely more than likely between biden and trump. and yes, there are usually some much smaller. um candidates also on the ballot. usually they get 0 traction and very few votes. right, and why is that? is because we are fed this narrative continuously, that these are the only 2 options. like i said,
10:34 pm
there are other options and in fact for him that does not see themselves reflected in either one. it is time that we take back the ring of democracy and say, but the people have spoken as may be best particular time. it won't make a difference in terms of binding our truck, but it will make a difference in the future and it will send a real message that if either either party is interested in really getting the vote of the people rather than pondering just to be elected then they will re evaluate the system that they have in place. they will re evaluate the connections they have with the various communities that have stood up and said we will not meet as to the point that we will not meet. what is it going to do? what is it meeting with by them administration at this point is not going to change facts on the ground, and that is why our demands are very simple. ceasefire 1st, and then we'll have a conversation meeting with an administration or, or are, are communicating with the administration is not going to shift the need or if it hasn't already. and quite frankly, this is the moment and i want to make this very,
10:35 pm
very clear. because there's been a lot of fear mongering and sort of the finger pointing towards the end, americans and american pose the american communities. this rejection of the administration and the tactics. and the genocide that is happening is not exclusively by air of systems imposed in. this is a movement based on principles. this is the movement that is a collective that includes various minorities that is based on just the same principles as most of us in the united states. the minorities of man, if they see ourselves in the mean cause because it's not just political, but assuming causes a feminist cause. the 1st name causes based on justice and rights and civil rights and in the environment. so when we talk about published and then we talk about this upcoming vote and why i use the conversation of the sole searching of both parties needs to happen is because this as much as they want to try to pin the best vote on those lives in the arrows in the grand scheme of things, this is
10:36 pm
a movement that is unstoppable and it repair, it represents a lot more than the 3. and i'm very, i have to think i'm very proud of michigan for taking it from stands on standing on principle listening to the streets and supporting the post. i mean people on the ground who are being killed and are calling for an immediate cease fire. and that's what i call for as well as anything else happens, michigan, which of course, as a reminder of yours has the largest air american population in the us and will be a swing state in this presidential elections. dana, something tells me we're going to be talking about this again, probably several times between now and november, the trial, we thank you for taking the time to talk to us today. you are the director of development and expansion for the american arab empty discrimination committee. thank you. are let's taking you through some developments out of cairo now in egypt, the meeting between the head of the c, i, a and seniors, really egyptian and could tarry. officials has ended without a clear breakthrough. ca chief william burns was at the meeting which came to end the fighting and gaza and reach
10:37 pm
a deal to release the captives. israel's intelligence officials are on their way back home now, is really media reporting that serious disagreements remain as bringing home the so who would she joins us live from occupied east jerusalem. what do we know about these thoughts? what can we say? it's 1936 gmc, what can we say at this hour about where these talks were left? so what are we can say is that these talks have ended with no deal and is really media is in fact reporting about the deal that was drawn off to see the release of is really captive by israel security establishment was rejected by these really prime minister before the meeting even began, and that his directive, the delegation went to cairo to merely quote list. so there are no developments whatsoever from these meetings, other than that, there is no deal on the table,
10:38 pm
but rather these really delegation was just there to listen to what her mouth had offered. but remember, prime minister benjamin netanyahu himself has said for weeks that there are so many red lines that israel will not cross when it comes to getting a deal on the table. he said he's not going to release thousands of health indian prisoners from his really jails. the war is not going to end either. and these are things, but how mass does want. they were hoping for a multi phase deal that would see the end of the war at the end of it. so there are a lot of disagreements also within the is really political realm. you have members of nuts and y'all, whose own coalition, who were trying to stop the delegation from going in the 1st place, calling on him to quote, not negotiate with the enemy. and then you have other members of the government who want to see a deal on the table to bring back the captive. all of this comes on the heels of immense international pressure, specifically from the americans. they want to see
10:39 pm
a deal on the table. they want to see more humanitarian aid going into gaza. famine is, is ramp, and there are so many people who are starving. and remember, these really are also what planning and invasion of what about software. nearly a 1000000 and a half palestinians are sheltering. so there is a lot of information and updates that are going to happen in the coming days. but when it comes to the deal and the framework, these rarely have rejected any sort of deal at this time. the address of who is the reporting from occupied east jerusalem. so the information we have at this hour is there is no deal right now with these really delegation returning to israel after those talks in cairo home, the thank you very much. as terms of the occupied westbank, where is really forces have killed at least one palestinian man in jeanine soldiers destroyed a house and infrastructure. the army also stormed the cities of calculator and
10:40 pm
ramallah as well as bethlehem and near occupied east jerusalem. at least $22.00 palestinians were arrested is really forces have increased the frequency and intensity of rays in the occupied westbank since october the 7th, as a palace thing is not just bearing the brunt of is really raised. but also similar attacks on monday. a group is really settler's attack palestinians, south of the city of novelist and the occupied westbank. at least 2 palestinians were injured. when settlers opened fire in the village of a sierra witnesses say the attacker is also set at least one home on fire. according to his really human rights organization yesterday and is really officials have routinely failed to hold is really suffers accountable for their actions. in the past 18 years, these really police failed to investigate 81 percent of the cases that were opened . 93.7 percent of them ended up without any charges being filed. a total of 6.6 percent of the cases were actually resulted in indictments only 3 percent of
10:41 pm
attacks and violence against palestinians actually resulted. then in a conviction, the un says the number of similar attacks has gone up since october. the 7th. there were at least 516 such cases recorded method mar, shift, joins us live. you wanted us to mention before the discussion that you're in is really united jewish human rights lawyer. you represent palestinians in cases of similar and military violence. you're joining us from west jerusalem. can you talk our viewers through those numbers? why is it that only 3 percent of reported cases, a settler violence against palestinians actually end up in a convictions, 3 percent as well. we can start by saying that is where it is actually not. you know, it does not recognize him politically. definitely the occupied territories as occupied territories, but as sees territory. so the application of international humanitarian law is only
10:42 pm
partly done. uh and uh, and in fact, for many, many years is that it has been in violation of both international human rights law and in session. many turn in law. and them in the military administration has been subject to to subtler interest and almost from the start. so in fact, the really ruler is in the occupied territories are and the settlers and so we have that in ministration itself is not, is not completely in adherence to it's, it's, it's the obligations even under is really all we do have uh list motivation. definitely under this government to enforce the law. but we also have the legal infrastructure in the occupied territories that has
10:43 pm
allowed settlers to violate the law and to do actually whatever they want to continue and colonizing the okay, by territories. so we have the legal infrastructure has a know taken powers of palestinians and issues of land in issues of, of planning a powers. and we have um, a complete failure of where we stop defaults per 2nd, very easy, st posts per 2nd. i want to make sure i'm following. you said there's a legal infrastructure in the occupied westbank that allows settlers to carry out violence. what does that mean? they're not legally allowed to attack palestinians, and they're not legally allowed to the yeah, i'm just saying that simpler violence is taking place in that context. and the context is that they're a building a outpost. they expanding supplements and they are using the many
10:44 pm
pollution already existing in the infrastructure till i do not. i posted in private land ownership. so you have violence taking place in different forms of physical violence. that is definitely, you know, prohibited unless it's so defense. and then the question is, what is exactly self defense? if a secular, you know, comes in grades is he's sheets in the private and public stadium land known as private plans for years. and after the war of all these, you know, presumptions of what is published in, in private land is completely being broken. and so when, you know, published in, in may resist in any way. and, you know, the sensor is allowed to do acting self defense, call the police, and then the police would, you know, expose the public standing in the, in. and i really don't mean to,
10:45 pm
it's not to interrupt. it's actually to illuminate the point that you're making because we're seeing footage here. and this footage comes from a report that we are just a few days ago by officer as corresponding charl stratford. and it followed the life of the day to day of a bed when palestinian in the, in a mighty hot that's in the occupied westbank. he's regularly harassed by his really settlers. and we're just gonna show you an excerpt of his story when he goes to police the file a complaint, then i'll hear you on the back of business. and we had companies slowly move on to the local is ready police station. he and 2 of his friends want to make formal complaints. solely mine says the secular leader, purposely run over and killed 10 of his goats and stolen carcasses. the police demanded we stopped building, raised the footage and insist if we leave. the next day we return to the village to hey,
10:46 pm
what the police said. let him on says he spent 9 hours at the police station. he says it often felt like they were investigating him, not village crime. he was repulsing me. john, if no matter the police only can come when the settlers lie and complain about us, i filed an official complaint to protect myself. it's like we have no rights in the eyes of these ready police. it's like we don't exist in his really low. okay, so and that's a m r shift back to you assuming for instance, this palestinian bed when she part or came to you to enforce his laws after his his rights after he's filed a complaint with these really police, what would you do and what would happen you actually are present this person. so in models i didn't know that. okay. yeah. and i actually asked but he goes to these really police and file a complaint. okay. so a lot of highly better know you can tell us what actually is happening are exactly
10:47 pm
. uh so what is happening is that actually the military has agreed, i mean, that is really d. c o, in coordination with the military agreed to provide a protection line. yeah, i think it's one of its kind in the, in the west bank and it's actually not working. it's not working because of the security officer responsible for this. the nearby settlement is violating. uh, you know that these great if this agreement uh and is constantly challenging it and, and, and entering the, the communities of the community and also set, there is a nearby centers are coming as and you can see here either acumen cheap or stealing cheap. so that's in violation of the military, the military, a guidelines, let's say it has not been officially be adopted or declared by the court, whatever. we're still in the processing. another case to actually formally request
10:48 pm
. that's all for the state in communities in the area. see, are giving a protection line, okay. it protects protection boundaries because these communities actually unrecognized communities. so that is what's really my is saying is it is and then so they are invisible, you know, in, in, in the eyes of the, of these are in the law and in the eyes of, of, of, of, of the police even. but once they file a complaint, then they have all these procedural, you know, uh impediments. so they have to come with, with, you know, a video shoot and the shootings and they have to, to provide evidence if they don't manage to photograph what has happened, or if this, if there's a break, their cell phones, etc. then the police would not would knock, you know, take any actions even if they don't. and we have cases, i have cases that we do have it, then the police may say, you know, but that's not your, your private plan. so the solution is not really, you know,
10:49 pm
done anything wrong or in the fires. and for example, they refuse to give any protection line because they said the military service, that's what the one other comment is that in hearing in the high court, if we give them production line, that means we want to recognize these communities in this company. this should be, it is accurate to so a big net tell something real. so because, because otherwise i'll run out of time and there's one last thing i want to ask you . so in this case, and i didn't notice this bid, when has a lawyer, he is represented by you. there are laws also that protect these communities. there is somebody, there is a professional, in this case yourself who applies was there to help them get the law applied and to work in their favor. i just want, before i let you go to understand why, what are the mechanics that mean that it ends up not working. and the said we have a problem with, you know,
10:50 pm
it appears to international law and international obligations in human rights. so and human to turn in law, we have a problem with the legal infrastructure that a does not recognize, but as being in communities, there's not to give them any power on their own communities and definitely result in, in the expropriation of their land and, and the infection, the eviction, and then we have, of course, the jurisprudence, i mean we have the high port, uh, uh, as many times actually it either directly or indirectly is implicit in, in the, in it, in and the over there is, it's a not in, not preventing fits or violence, and we have the procedure themselves. any else? of course we have the, the, the political, uh, the political decisions are too expensive. listen, thank you. thank you very much. obviously, it's complex when you talk about legal cases and his layered, but i think you, you, we, we got
10:51 pm
a window by talking to you on why and how the palestinians who seek legal representation actually cannot get their, their rights and forced in the legal system. thank you very much. and at the marcia reese, the still ahead on alpha 0, senegal suspends nobody's internet access, and bands of plants protest against the abrupt delay in presidential election.
