will qualify as the best of the tennis will be the one to subscribe. now the is really strikes to more than a dozen people and 11 on just as the us and fonts cool for an immediate 21 day ceasefire. to stop the conflict between israel and has below the hello. i'm down, jordan, this is out. is there a life? and though i also have coming up in low, low water must be avoided at all, costs it to surely be. and the last customer i want in from the u. n. chief to the well as a security council needs to discuss the worst thing. conflict. i mean, cause i'm more refugee comes, come on the is ready, fire pregnant women and 4 children. i'm 20 people killed on reports from savannah

to say there's heavy fighting report that in the sydney's capital costume between vital functions the us from now the allies coding full and the media 21 day see slide between israel and has belong to try to stop there escalating conflict which has killed hundreds of people. they released a joint statement on the sidelines of the un general assembly. the cool came as you and chief antonio, but that is one. hell is breaking loose and 11 on. there's no immediate reaction from these riley or lebanese governments, or indeed hezbollah. and while our global calls for an immediate cease fire of these randy army has continued its bombing of southern 1100. 4 people were killed in 2 strikes, comes off to another attack in the back of the valley in the east, which left 12 people dead on 17 over wounded. for us president jeff bottom says the sci fi proposal is reading supports,

the statement for $21.00 days. are you able to generate oh, just the results in jordan has more and that's he's fine. opposing of late on wednesday, the us and france announced that they had reached in concept a 21 days cease fire in the war between husband law and israel. this 21 day cease fire would cover all fighting that's been happening inside lebanon, as well as along with the blue line, between loving on and israel to itself. the idea, according to us officials who brief reporters late on wednesday in the united states, is that it would give the enough time for officials in israel and in love and on

and a sensibly bottom has full law as well. to work out a comprehensive deal to stop the noah stop fighting that has been happening since october 8th. the day after her mos attack is railings in southern israel and kidnapped more than 250 people. taking them into garza and setting off the israeli war on gauze up. now the us officials who also proved said that this is a moment where if they could strongly achieve a ceasefire in lebanon and along the blue line, that it could also create to have the opportunity to try to conclude the us sponsored ceasefire deal for god. so that means getting the captives out of gaza getting in humanitarian aid and setting the ground work for more of a conclusive piece between moss and israel. the long term goal with us will not say is whether they expect house blog to sign off on the deal,

but they do think that if the ceasefire can be achieved, it will undermine how mazda is dream of a regional war against israel and across the middle east, something which the u. s. has been very keen to avoid. russell and jordan elders. era washington. meanwhile, the un security council met to discuss the worst thing situation in the middle east focusing on 11 on august. there was my kind of reports from the united nations. the secretary general reminded old in the council chamber of what was at stake. st . living on had witnessed its that'd be a stay in a generation. and no lot water must be avoided at all costs. it would surely be an all out get us little feet, the people of level, as well as the people of israel and the people of the world get not the father of lebanon to become and not that a gaza. and the us representative continued to insist that israel had the right to

self defense, but gave advance notice of a false coming temporary c spy proposal. we are working with other countries on a proposal that we hope it will lead to come and enable discussions to a diplomatic solutions. these ravia invested in, maintains that israel was protecting itself over the past week, even as being conducting precise dykes 11 on a guarantee. the biological monsanto's, launching sites, me so little weapons, those, and very little sheep, the lebanese prime minister characterize these really actions differently. look now and the own. well, the higher the odd one in lebanon is today, victim of an electronic cyber aggression and of an air maritime aggression that can turn into a ground aggression and can become an oil out regional war. that'd be that. and it runs foreign minister accuse united states ought to enabling israel by its military and political support. also drawing

a direct line from the war in gaza to the conflict in live and on the ongoing, i guess in the games live in on these fields by the failure of the international community. i'm in particular by the united nations security council to hold as all accountable for water crimes and genocide in gaza. and it's to blame and come to blame. the search for consensus appeared elusive. as a meeting, go to a close, it was a non set from some of the united states. so working on implementing a 21 days c spy to allow for broad negotiations. the meeting is adjourned. council members leaving the chamberlain took the proposal that's being sent to the parties in conflict. the agreement would allow for residents to return to their homes in both lab and on and as well. my kind of august, the era united nations. meanwhile, is there any strikes the cost of living on killed, at least $81.00 people on the wednesday and wounded more than $400.00? it brings a total number of people killed vice ready bombing across the country to more than

650 since monday, which is more than half the number killed during the month long war between hezbollah and his ro, back in 2006. so hundreds of thousands of people have set their homes in southern lebanon to escape, as well as a tax. the un says the middle east cannot afford another displacement crisis. i'll just say it was in a 100 reports from papers and all day 3 of as well sustained era. so on living on a campaign that the army says is about destroying, as well as military capability. the area of operations is expanding, strikes are no longer confined to the south and east. they are reaching other areas where hezbollah has a presence. for the 1st time targeting positions in mount lebanon on north of b route, and 20 kilometers south of the capital. a building was destroyed along the main highway. the strikes are causing widespread destruction and casualties already in

there are hundreds are mounting. strikes are now getting closer to the countries biggest city outside has well a stronghold and bade with southern suburbs where commanders have already been killed. for weeks we have been speculating if and when border confrontations will spiral into war. it's weak to of a new phase in hostilities. it may not be all out war, like in 2006, when israel laid siege to 11 on bombing the airport blockading seaports. leveling parts of bait with southern suburbs, as well as targeting regions outside as well as influence. but for the people of lebanon, this is very much for hundreds of thousands are believed to be on the move in seems similar to the last major war between as well, and has beloved in 2006, the ambulance is racing in all directions and various from vanessa taking the day before yesterday, strikes started getting closer and is rarely planes were in the sky. for sure,

we were scared bit by bit it reach the fields outside the village and inside it of course, we could not stay everyone a scared. we carried ourselves packed our clothes and left the hezbollah to is hitting deeper inside israel targeting areas that have still not been evacuated. it has promised, as well as military actions will achieve. it stated more goal of returning tens of thousands of people to their homes in northern israel. for the 1st time in 11 months of fighting hezbollah launched a long range weapon towards tennessee. it was seen as a significant escalation and the message that its capabilities have not been destroyed. hezbollah has committed itself to keep fighting until the war on gaza ends. and that the whole aim over the 3rd need, the most sense as to those to their homes, which cannot be done with the going into this are scalable

diplomacy has not been successful as little as a and it won't be successful with women. and as i can see, the lebanese officials say this is an unprecedented attack by israel, and they are disappointed with the position of the by the end of ministration. it is not strong, and it is not promising is what the foreign minister here said. there doesn't appear to be a window for diplomacy, at least not yet center for their eligibility to. they don't, but i'll just there as a mind con, joins us live now from mazda of june, in southern lebanon. the events that this is the full stay of israel's intensified air strikes across the country. just bring us up to date with the latest on those strikes as well and never see a governor or where i am that have been strikes in the last hour on towns not far from where i'm standing around 530. i am just in that local town over the was actually merger you. and just beyond that ridge line, we had

a very huge strike coming in. we've also had a, has bullet rockets going out from the into is really tara trees. we've also seen towns being attacked in the western back of valley, which is an eastern level 3 towns that the sold there is so $512.00 killed and $73.00 wounded and never tear governor overnight, 20 killed, and at least 88 people have been wounded. the aggression is still very much escalating. this is the fall, the most intense. i've seen the same, so uh, october the 8th and these raise putting the news insight to as they call it, family and the priorities right at the top, the for their own priority. so everything still going on and it's still going on. if you take this as a microcosm across this entire board,

the models have any reaction yet from living on or indeed has been all room is us fronds 21 day see spot proposal across the border as the zone official, a reaction from any of those parties now his bolos position has always been clear. it's been cleared since october, the 8th that they will cease fi. as long as there's a ceasefire in garza, they only joined the whoops to back. come us and they're willing to do whatever i'm asked does. so revise the grease with the spot. they will dramatic a ceasefire here allowing the residence of northern israel to go home for the lebanese government. it's a diplomatic issue that needs to take. they need to take a look at the language, but most people who are suggesting that this isn't a ceasefire proposal. this is a statement about a potential ceasefire now uh there's a lot of mistrust today about the,

about the american government's role in this. they don't see them as an honest broker. this simple reason for that is that they've given is ro cover time and time again by the diplomatic lee and militarily $3500000000.00 a year, military assistance since october, the 7th. we have a host of these breakouts between a mask and is ro, $21000000000.00 and military assistance coming as an outage and see appropriations is all doesn't stop all weapons as some there is a figure that suggests every 36 hours. there was a us shipment, military shipment into israel, those things on coming phase and 11. and there's also a massive distrust. this is almost exactly the same types of language used to try and post. i got a is rather into a safe spot in goal is that every time they go close to cease by prime minister of israel, benjamin netanyahu would put another condition, but by giving you

a mass wouldn't accept. so there's no real confidence in this ceased by statement. actual, alright, to him and con life as the in marshal you and in southern lebanon came on. thank you. i mean, honest, really i'm a chief, has a levy has indicated a ground and the vision is 11 on is likely is i don't, i'm chief, we will continue. we're not stopping, we keep striking and hitting them everywhere, but the goal is very clear to safely retain the residence of the north. to achieve that, we are preparing the process of a maneuver which means your military boots or into enemy territory into villages that has the law as far paid as large military outposts with underground infrastructure staging points and launch pads into out here at drake. and to carry out a tax on his riley civilians. and i'm dissolute. has these randy reaction from the jordanian capital? i'm on the reminder, she's intimate and because these ran

a government band down to 0 from a 14 inside is red. the military has also mobilized reservists brigades to the northern border. these really army chief of staff, hinting at the possibility of a potential is really ground invasion into southern lebanon. something that, of course, is causing concern on both sides of the border and beyond. these really military has been saying for weeks that they are going to restore the balance of power on israel's northern border. in the last 48 hours, the loan of the army says that they have conducted nearly 2000 airstrikes, hitting thousands of his bow. a target and among them they say, are 60 intelligence facilities. but the military is also saying that they're not done, that all of the options are on the table and not until they achieve the goal of returning the 10s of thousands of his relatives who were evacuated from the northern townsend settlements. the conflict with his butler is going to continue

the rhetoric from his really officials over the last several weeks. the intensification of attacks is all pointing to a larger full scale war. israel has said they don't want that as well. i have said they don't want that, but these rallies have said they are prepared for a much larger security situation. meaning that they are prepared for the conflict to widen and intensify. stuff that's out break here and i'll just say it right when we come back must go says it's forces of captured more territory and east them. ukraine will have a late to some of the fighting between the both sides or not. stay with the is really forces seek to silence the truth. finley occupied westbank, storming and shutting down houses. here was bureau and romano, the truth must be protected and heard. and the stories of real people must be told . this is not just that

a task on journalism. it's an attack on the world's right to know. journalism is not of coolant or pressing it. a 19 year old plunged into the 2011 slip the uprising. armed with just a camera mixed the chaos, but determined to document witness presents an intimate portrayal of conflict and survival. as he looks back on his own shocking archive. tom does. diary libya's decades. oh, hold on a jersey. it's undisputed. the 72 muslims were massacred in the village of indiana, india, and 1987 witnesses say the perpetrators or a mob of locals along side the state governments. prevention of constabulary personnel. over 30 years later in the district court acquitted the accused to date

. no one has been as accountable people in power asks why the victims continue to be denied justice india is forgotten, must occur on the jersey, the investigative gen. thousands of young men and women come down into the jungle to join the pro democracy forces sharing personal stories with the globe. or noti, i do have experience been followed by multiple possibly chinese items, exploring the fund wells class program. as anybody died in gauze of starvation is the savings of the falls on the see the world from a different perspective on how to hear the, [000:00:00;00]

the welcome back you watching, how does the record combined a bunch of stories here? this weather us and phones edition of joint statement calling out these raylon has ballade to agree to a temporary tend to one day ceased by us across the israel 11 and buddha comes up to a week of intense has ran the strikes across the level. one is what he strikes in southern lebanon, have killed 4 people early on thursday morning, off to another. 12 were killed in the east and back on the valley. the $650.00 people have been killed across the country since he's been around subjects bombing 4 days of additional geometry and says, administrative pairing for a possible ground operation. and thoughts of 11 on comments come as 5 minutes, but benjamin netanyahu one is well when it starts to a residence. moving in the area is near the florida can safely return to their homes, to gauze and out where it's really strikes, have destroyed residential buildings in several thoughts of

a strip in hong units in the south. at least 5 people were killed when a house was a rescue. teams rushed to the center of the jabante, a refugee camp in the north. they remove bodies from the rubble. several wounded people were taken to hospitals in the no, i don't wednesday, at least 20 palestinians were killed in guns, including a pregnant women and 4 children. i'll just say what's kind of my mood of thoughts from deal is rita harris has continued to pound across the gaza strip, causing further civilian casualties then to your level of destruction everywhere and quite visible ruby, one right now and more in force displacement across the golf in areas such as the, during the camera for there in the southern parts of the golf, including a lot of the vaccination zone in earlier at fox. these really military, j. 6 members of one family award in brooklyn city and injured multiple numbers of

people who were beside the residential and how that was targeted component vicinity of the very residential and i was talking earlier. ours is really a military, a partial residential home, and a great rest of the time it uses. 3rd time this week i can talk deliberately and relentlessly by giving here a talk. then there are a couple like heavy artillery, 5 people recorded, killed that in the mother and years, or daughters who happened to be in there. 10 years of this reading military continue to cause further a tragedy to the point. the courtyard of this hospital hind me right here turn, do eat for turn into a space for funerals, not a place for g, like there is no medical care deliver inside the hospital. the huge influx of injuries has been pausing is so much pressure on the medical to soften the fact

that there are no sufficient medical stuff available on the acute shortage and medical supplies make it very difficult for the medical staff inside to provide any sort of medical care whatsoever, it's not ministry sources and so then have told down to 0, the fresh fighting as erupt in the capital on thursday morning, several ministry sites contract held by the power military rapids support forces were attacked. yeah, me says they've taken control of several strategically important bridges around the capital. fighting was also reported in areas around the presidential palace, as well as in the vari area, to the new, to keep the move and joins as live now from the sidney's capital cost to him. he bought somewhat more details are imagined about the slightest fighting. tell us what's been happening while this is the 1st major offensive by visiting these army in nearly 4 months the last offensive. but the army launch was in late may, uh and uh, the city of, from the city of on demand towards cartoon north into the city of but he but they

had to retreat after launching and offensive very now 2 days of friends have started in the early hours of this morning around 2 o'clock local time, they were asked, strikes, carried out by the sudanese army against positions of the parent military rapids support forces in the city of how to, to north and in the city of hot a tomb itself. we can see the news of smoke rising and hard to him city as well as in the city of on demand. because according to army sources, v r a step has also launched a counter offensive to try to minimize that at the, those attacks long spybot signees army. now this is again the 1st off. i'm save major offensive by the army. they've been trying to take over several locations. we know that the army was able to take over the eastern part of nile bridge. that's the bridge that connects the city of i'm through my to the city of how to and they've been advancing towards mile 3 towards the presidential palace where there is also heavy fighting reported. he buys the say, it's been months since the army carried out any kind of major offensive. so why now,

as well, according to minutes, the resources as well does, has been in the works for months because of the recept draining. uh uh, because it's been draining the army. you can hear the heavy artillery right now still ongoing. so it looks like the arm is still fighting doris and several positions. this artillery that you just heard has been firing since around 5 o'clock local time here in the early hours of morning, towards cartoons 50 and how to north. we can also hear the fights, the jets flying overhead. and the reason why it took so long again because the army said it's been trying to drain the capacities and the capabilities of the iris. and in addition to the fact that the iris have has been spreading to other parts of the country. and so their presence in the capital is minimized, so the army says that or if these sources say that they feel that this is the right time would be, are so busy in other on other funds and, and then flash it and nurses are for as a live in the south and central parts of the country. they said this is the right time to try to attack and take over positions of the r a. so here in the capital cartoon, the ideal,

this particular the shots in the aftermath of battle between sedans, army supported by arms groups and its arrival the rapids support forces in a fashion, the capital of north star. for this flight there says these vehicles were captured from the param and a 3 r, a staff which for a month has been trying to take over the city by the last army, strong holes in the region. it's one of several fronts where the 2 sides had been locked in intense confrontations since april last year. the rest of controls most of the south, the west and central regions. while the army dominates in the north and the east, the fight thing between the army and the recess is also happening here in the capital. that's created a nationwide for military and crisis. that's a group state has become catastrophic. new one and every 4th of the news is now displaced because of the violence and have of the 48000000 population is in need of

humanitarian assistance. this school in on demand is one of dozens being used as temporary shelters. 8 organizations have been struggling to reach many of those in need because of the violence and the lack of funding that and then uh, that we used to get lentils from the community kitchen for breakfast and royce for lunch. now we don't, because he the, those who are sick cons, get treatment, and the address, sometimes you get to you in the morning, sometimes we don't. there is no official. dest told observers say it could reach 150000. in a conflict tomorrow's bi sexual violence and the targeting of civilian areas. the u . n. has described the crisis incident as a children's crisis. it says more than 4600000 have been displaced since april 2023 . 05 is an orphan. his parents were killed by artillery fire. well, let me love, i love the nipple for his parents were really worried about him and his siblings. they left their home and came to our district to escape the siding. but there are 2 very fire near them. the father died immediately,

the mother on the way to the hospital more than 17 months into this conflict. 8 organizations save the international community has forgotten about sedan and as the human, it's aaron situation where since many are calling on un member states to pressure the were in parties into protecting civilians and ending the violence. he but morgan onto 0 on their mind. ukrainian president in florida managed the landscape has used his address at the united nations general assembly to judge will lead us to stand with his country against when he calls russian colonialism. ukrainians will never accept will never accept why anyone in the world believes that such a brutal colonial boss which you, it's no want to day can be imposed on your brain. now instead of a normal peaceful life, i want these for my people,

real peace and justice. and i am asking for your support from all nations of the world. we do not divide the world. i ask the same of you, do not divide the world, be united nations. meanwhile, on the ground in ukraine, russian forces, se they've captured, to move villages and are advancing on the town of philadelphia. it's located in the done yet scrooge. and i'm just considered a long time ukrainian stronghold. footage posted on social media appears to show explosions and smoke rising from buildings. moscow says there was intense fighting there, shrunk as new president, a new rep camara. this an eoc a wants to renegotiate. a $2900000000.00 bailout from the international monetary fund. i am if the rescue package help and shortages of to few and mentions, but it's also too much as i've left a 1000000 struggling to make ends meet 2 years ago. sherlock, because economy plunged into severe financial crisis with inflation reaching 70

percent. just an eoc pledge to reduce the cost of living during election campaign. new york city met eric adams is facing federal criminal charges pulling a corruption product according to us media. indictment has not yet been made. public. prosecutors are expected to release the details of the indictment on thursday. once the charges are revealed, items will be the 1st new york city mass to be criminally charged. while still in office. democrats in texas are choosing republicans. i've kinda got what they called state sponsored vote to intimidation as long as the us department of justice to intervene. but republicans say that guarding against the election fraud by challenging vote or registrations. how does that cast or has more? a 23 year old giovanna melendez says she has no idea why her name was truck from the texas motor roles. i went to check right now

and it's not in the system. she just re registered at this event hosted by austin community college. in august, governor greg abbott announced the state removed more than a 1000000 names from the voting rolls since 2021, claiming they were deceased non citizens or had moved from the state. here none of that describes melendez. thank you. she says she may have been purged because she's hispanic, a group that historically supports the democrats. it can get kind of scary and i feel like that's just a way to kind of keep democrats from voting for now. if i log in 2020 donald trump one texas by the smallest margin for any republican presidential candidate in more than 2 decades, had ever accept when they steal and re republican national committee plans to mobilize thousands of poli, monitors, and swing states in this election, democrats will have monitors as well. we will not be intimidated. meanwhile,

hispanic leaders in texas are protesting a series of police raids of the homes of democratic organizers. the raids were ordered as part of a state investigation into alleged voter fraud. it's an effort to, to get our people to have some fear and possibly not register, even if they're eligible. it's certainly not come out to vote. congressional democrats from texas have asked the us justice department to investigate and efforts continue to register as many voters as possible. texas has the lowest voter turnout in the country. here in the democratic stronghold of travis county, local leaders send out motor registration forms to everyone that they sound, so was eligible to vote for not yet registered. but now state republican leaders say that efforts is illegal. the leader of travis county has filed a counter suit against the state and federal court. i don't understand why any,

any elected official democrat or republican would have any problem with that of letting eligible voters vote in texas. experts fear a growing trend of partisan election rules across the country, as republicans in georgia, florida, and arizona has also been accused a vote or intimidation. heidi jo, castro alger 0. austin, texas. what was it for me, don jordan, before i go that quick of mind that you can find much more information on our website out to 0, talk com. there it is on your screen. it is continues here on out to 0 optim witness. spectrum depends on what you find. the the challenges

with the, the, when you go to go, so you always see children. there's so many children. roughly half the population does underwriting. something you're saying keeps playing, laughing, crying, screaming everywhere. or can i have friends that your head can somebody else and would spend time with those children? i was the time is a keep going back to guys over and over and over again. i just see how kind of that changed and also how it was changing me. i guess as a human being 1st and, and you 2nd, but i thought it was important as a to,

to say to people in the outside. well, because there is not some far away land that he's too scary for you to contemplate . when i go out there i heard from somebody and you didn't, you feel unsafe to see me for that you're going to be killed. and i didn't feel that the same one has happened to god since october 7 has been breaking. honestly and i'm so ashamed. i'm so ashamed because it's being done in my name, boss and neighborhood was the thing obliterated. i've tried to look at those images and say, did i go to them some of those areas that i got arrest on there or did i make people there on the show and i am furious and sad and

often feel helpless. what's happening now in gaza is the most extreme is and instead of having to tell us the names in the history, and i do not think we ever gonna rely at least and this will say, will seem to in western governments to change that reality. they've supported what's going on, including here in the say, the since october 7 i've been, i've around, with literally hundreds and hundreds of media requests by long se, hello. see now you over the past on the bar, she how i've been receiving literally thousands and thousands and thousands of messages. people saying thank you for speaking out jewish people, same thing called as

a voice that is against what his role is doing. i think it's important that jews or non jews are really challenged on what they backing whether it's in gaza or the westbank or wherever it is. this is being done in the the last time i was here at home, i think was around 2017. there was a very, as my mother died. so i'm, i think i'm speaking to cnn tomorrow. christ. i was born in 1943. my parents was emigres from germany. nazi germany and much tongue. 39. i'm just in melbourne all the time. i've been violating much, tried in 60 anthony as soon as ben, united 74 is the only child that we had until he grew up in

a very liberal household. so we had a very interesting household in the states. it was a lively discussion when we celebrated the jewish holidays. we did the service. every friday night we looked the candles we we go to synagogue and sin killed uh the main holidays. passover and other events st. loves our friends. so a lot of my parents, friends with jewish group retired and i the him, if loma chic addition to bruce attempt received on the look near shield shots. we kept a jewish home, not a kosher mississippi friday night with special entity was allowed to go out on friday night the damage. so i was 13 major. a lot of jewish boys have bills increase and they have a document. so similar kind of like a coming of age ceremony event at the synagogue, you learn to pray, you have

a family friends party and i went to sunday school for us to prepare for that. as far as anthony is jewish, this was concerned was important to us and he should know his heritage. and i suppose it also was informed by the fact that we had families last year and all across the my grand parents. on my mother's and father's side flit. europe in 1939, one from germany, one from last year and came to australia as refugees. the vast majority family could not get out, got trapped. many of them was sent to death camps. all my father's parents were taken by train to our shirts, and paradoxically, to day they were executed at the shirts in boats. i was born in australia

which is creepy. as far as the holocaust impacting my parents, my mother in particular for her israel was potentially a century or something. god forbid happened. at least we had some way to go. when i look back now and have my parents were before the to thousands of that is ro i would say that they were on thinking zionists criticising use. royal beings are the one i did body's room. i teach seventy's, i think, has to be seen in context. nobody talked about the palestinians, other than the territory is the tunnel of things in the munich massacre, for example. and you're going to look at the in context in the wider jewish community in milton, which is alive just today in holocaust survivor community outside israel.

i had a pretty rocky relationship with my father invitations go kicked out of hi, i'm a few times. i was forced to because of that dynamic to start, i guess sort of representing myself on my so speaking out for myself, you know, i had a strong disagreements. probably mainly my fault because i got needled by teenager and i sadly rise to the page. my fault i think some of mine defensiveness of times documented to nature, which sometimes can be useful for journalism. probably comes from that period. i wouldn't in the i ended up getting a job at the harold online in 2003. and i started writing about 2 issues, israel, palestine,

and the iraq war. now if you look back up what i was rushing at the time, it was expressing criticism of these really occupation mean really monitoring the the caching and, and the terms of saying, i'm writing this as a junior and various members of the jewish community started noticing while i was writing sort of being critical of it in the jewish press and why the press who is this young, hard head, essentially writing these things. he's demeaning at community 2005 . i went to visual palestine for the 1st time, mostly in research for my book. my is your question. the book in some ways was about 2 things. one, it was about what's happening in palestine at the time. and also it was about the role these will be in australia and elsewhere. so the book comes out and about and mid 2006. i can remember the date was the 19th of july 2006 eventually was

on nbc tv with attorney jones. this suggests that i am probably his fellow because i question, civilly in spring there, that is the kind of registry that we expect from the products or a lobby you either with us or against us. you feel jewish, and you criticize these royalty decides even a policy, these riley governments, you're still pending jubal anti semitic all your an unpatriotic, all trays. and so i'm going to choose an old eyes and file was i checks color and rubinstein rejects the charge. we point out to the editors and the media. uh, ms. sikes inaccuracies. uh and of course, uh, we ask for uh, alternative views that the ones that have put incessantly usually criticizing as well. and so we want a genuine device. the book comes out and it becomes a best seller within days. and in the jewish price, the mid or press,

i was slammed day after day after day. anthony was under religious attack, absolute early it was started receiving a few death threats. but the majority of response, in fact was positive and for a lot of jews, they said it gave us so much comfort to hear these positions bank express because we as sales feel this way, we feel deeply in pain by what israel is doing a we pilot tonight, we amazingly got the cold shoulder from a lot of people who would be really close friends. so antony kindly became a known person and i still exist to say thanks to today. i think from my parents that us decides ation was had never very involved in the jewish community. all these fact is kind of co, a list in, but i would call, i mean, select sol awakening that my father and mother became more alive

to the reality of what they had been indirectly supporting for most of their life, which was namely, usually occupation. they started saying palestinians as human beings, the i thought of going to is ralph, how is fine as a freelance jan was to be 3 or 4 years. i 1st went to gallons or in mid 2009. i wanted to connect with palestinians in area that has been selected for so many is cut off from much of the rest of the tell us on a little line the well, the was about 6 months of operation costs later, which was the 1st is rarely bombardments. of cause,

i'm the despite civilians living in a really disparate condition that was impact. some guys are a real beauty tom, this amazing fresh produce beautiful fresh fee south and remember dating fresh fish that have been caught that day by palestinian fishermen and then aiden on the shores of minutes. right. and the, the case the department was spending time with some palestinians in gaza as these who were not supporters of hum us to a critical if he didn't like what, how most was doing to gaza to make it and much more religious as i, as mine does the table, the house and couldn't say that very publicly for all these reasons.

the, as well as reporting. i also did lots of other projects and went to places like haiti, company, guinea, afghanistan, many countries around the world. actually. it was during this time that i 1st met my partner, ellison, i guess angie and i kind of met 3 sort of human rights and social justice circles. ellie was off at a job with an international human rights organization working on policy and advocacy for palestinians. i remember when i 1st got the job in jerusalem, it was actually a bit reluctant after my instruct question in 2006 and the maelstrom around, it was the hesitation of not wanting to be. so you can see you in 5 is to see because it was successful. but i'm very,

very glad that we went and she convinced me because i think it was a transformative period of my father and mother when she was alive, started visiting palestine high whenever we're in the we spend saving build up by the idea of what's happening to villages of things destroyed again and again by these riley's, so i've, i've seen it 1st hand and what i've seen was just a poor living. we've seen a context of occupation thing up close in many ways. it was incredibly eye opening . iris were saving basically in real time updates on why fi when palestinian hines were being demolished across the west bank in order to make way for illegal is riley settlements. and then we would go and visit these communities and these families who had had the one and destroyed and gold r is by these riley military in front of the actual drive. and that kind of ritual

humiliation has sadly become central to what he 0 is. i think for many years i had thought that what's happening and tell us tom is not sustainable. how can this endless occupation continue? the will challenge that rise up and ended. but actually leaving the fee is, might be changed. the hours of change by the brutality of the tax, the targeting is riley civilians. and i knew that the impact would be so catastrophic for the palestinians and gals who are already suffering so much . often like 20 is a sage. i felt very quickly, this is a keen to a 911. no, i meant the 911. change the wells for the was it was pretty clear we thing really

a day on so after october 7 at the splits in the jewish community around these round design is in which exist along before that day. we're going to exploit the the industry that we're seeing a lot of jews, particularly young ones, protesting against these riley actions. and it's really inspiring we are claiming to stay for alters. but we do think that in the smaller man, it is very important to highlight that the jewish community is not a model list. and there are many jews who are critical of israel. alex military actions

the charge of genocide level against israel is not only false, is our regions, are wars against come us terrace, not against palestinian civilians. israel has an inherent right to defend itself. is route is central to the jewish identity of the vast majority of jews living in australia, 77 percent of choose identify as sinus john is in this situation right? for self determination, that is the right for his right to exist as a states as a jewish people. it's so important because our communities now she post holocaust community, the given

a jewish background. that's an ongoing persecution of what is known as programs programs, as a governments about sponsor to attack on change. and october, the 7th was a hall ground. it was planned and sponsored by how much and show in the jew shockey. when somebody says they want to kill us all, we take it serious today, the main strangers leadership most to see people like anthony law and state that extreme, this tween voice as highly destructive to the well being of jews. and particularly the well being of the of the 7000000 jews living in his wrath dante's honest message leads to

a tax on jews in australia. so it fosters anti semitism. and we've seen that with the huge, apposite, in a distributed some post dr. this g 's have the right to live safely every way, and there's no doubt that there was a long history of vile anti semitism. but you have tens of thousands of palestinians floors in the name of these riley, jewish, and security who is most secure after this. it's actually making us more unsafe and until palestinians are safe and secure. is riley's never will be and use never will be there's a family when you engage and i to flee to a straight you for the safety. we supported them on that journey. i'm actually going to go and save them today. yeah,

i'm at the very least daily. 2017 guys. i was going there as a journalist. yeah. she was a translator and fix that. but also we got on really well. i remember going to marion time 50 now she invited me to go to the tomato bomb and assistance. there was no power which was pretty common because power outages in gaza. will you be for this? so we 8 by candle lice the since i last so marian, she's had a daughter quote sophie was 7, had said, was there a sense that pretty quickly that this was different? there was some of the moments from the 1st moment every where it was built. there was no safe area they way and targeting civilians targeting hospitals and

even schools where people are sick and refuse when i was in gaza when, when he would go to sleep. i hock sophie, not knowing whether i would be able to do this again, tomorrow or not. that was the most difficult feeling i have ever had to think that we have been deprived of the most precious thing is the feeling of home. we have lost that i didn't know what home means, lowering the st. the wider western community. i will fully blind about the realities of most of them are of posting culture. there is still so much suspicion in the media elsewhere in the wider community of air and voices, we do not have them nearly enough. it is much more acceptable to hear

a so called moderate jewish voice than i tell us the invoice. i used to believe in human rights, i used to believe in and that we live in the world that every human being should have equal rights. but know that as a soldiers are posting every thing, the 2 online, on textbook and other social media platforms, if i have a kid that is watching, all of this happening is watching this on news and seeing children, women goes noise, every one is being killed. everyone is being deprived food to, to power everything. and this world is not doing anything about it. as a kid, i would lose hope. i wouldn't believe in humanity anymore. how could you, how could you speak about humanity, human rights?

maybe our, our mind would have changed if we send somehow that, that is to me is belong to this world. we don't feel that the palestine started thinking about it literally till the 3540 years ago within my jewish family and synagogue and the wider community. i didn't think that i would become this person. i have learned to walk through a tv because the subject of was really hoping that to me i'm proud of him, of these types of feelings and he'll take on. so whoever wants to take him home and give him a low pound,

a 150 percent. absolutely. i think to my father and my mother when she was alive as well. i think feel a sense of indication of a lot of the work and i'm doing and the response that it's gone. it's not entirely clear what i do next. i feel emboldened anyway and so angry with what's happening in gaza that i will not stay silent. i will keep speaking out about days running about and talking about it hopefully trying to assist and build a more diverse jewish community. those who support a more humane, formal duties and the v postings as human beings. and as the young did use in relation to israel,

palestine who gave me much more hope than jews of my age. the, the hello, i think bright and breezy sums up the weather across the good parts of the middle east, over the next day, or 2 particularly brazier some miles setting. in course that is the sort of saudi arabia. you'll notice the winds picking up in doha temperature as well above whatever they should be. 4041 celsius has sent me a possibility over the next couple of days, a stronger way. and just started to push this way down to a southern style, the ballistic dust insides. certainly a possibility on the costs here as we go through the next dial. so push level, not too many showers around, maybe the shout just around the cold because but nothing much to speak up. dr. bright and sunny across at east the side of the mediterranean. when started to come in from a little bit more of
