12:03 am
their towns have been caught off by is rows most long. siege of the region by the just of course impacts the quality of the vaccination and its effectiveness. if initially 90 percent and 95 percent of the targeted, we are currently talking about less than 70 percent of a target. this rollout could not be more important. in august the world health organization confirmed the 1st case of paul you in gaza for 25 years, a baby who was left partially paralyzed by the disease of the some of the channels . i stayed here in northern garza, along with all my children so they could get the vaccine. they were supposed to get it a month ago because of the siege. it was the late a month on one of these mothers hope the vaccination to protect their children against polio. but they were you, they can put of them for me is riley bonham. the for the bed, the,
12:04 am
i call them the world to stop the genocide of northern gone. so because we are literally dying, those who do not die from bombs or dying from hunger. the situation is catastrophic . like, was it done? hundreds of thousands of people in the north of gauze, i have little if any food, walter, or health care and the united nation say they're facing apocalyptic conditions in the odyssey. it or that are. but if god's a palestine francesca albany is the, is the un special rapid tour on the occupied palestinian territories. and she's joining us live from one trail. thank you very much for taking the time to talk to us this album. instead, we really appreciate that. so as we heard in that recording to you and says that people in northern gaza, facing apocalyptic conditions, can you tell us what your able to gather about those conditions? and i'm able to gather what you get to the the coordination startup week. i need to
12:05 am
take and that are 390 days old as a we're, we're using words faster, feature apocalyptic, and it's a disaster, it's a human made disaster. and that the problem, the main problem is that stop for trinity many including policy makers continue to portray these as the war as that conflict, as a war between how mosse and, and uh and is that, why don't we, when we create clearly seen a general side of having pain on for the us to act. so keeling extermination starvation and then the summation of city and life infrastructure. and the clearly even, even these are any general assign. historians are saying these kind of people on the other didn't genocide. so my question is, why is these not stop?
12:06 am
that's what 10 member states do to stop it. i know that you released a report just days ago saying once again that what is happening in gaza isn't just will comes. it is genocide and you've always wanted to the full 1st before the latest, as bailey siege of northern gossip. again, you follow to the violence that is world has an beach against the palestinians, didn't post october 7th isn't happening in a vacuum that it's part of a long term, intentional systematic, state organized, force displacement and replacement of the palestinians. you said this trajectory with causing a repairable prejudice to the very existence of the palestinian people in palestine . and you said that member states must intervene now to prevent new atrocities that will for the scotch human history. that was over a month ago with the deadlocks at the security council. how do you think that member states should intervene?
12:07 am
i don't think the dentist the deadlock is that the security council, the deadlock and the security council is at rest. mix of the lack of political will to stop is and there is nothing that prevents of member state of, from abiding by international they have in the be joined the a no big aisha, not aide, and sees a space that we just need to across cities, dean and the out, they have to stop the or those who are still transferring weapons, the united states, but not just the united states, and also buying for treating immunity tardy and security services from east red mass stall. any trade with the sun must be interrupted now, and then there is also deep pro logic sanctions and political sanctions that need to be applied to now med, the whomever is not taking the steps is either a, is, is,
12:08 am
is either responsible or completely in different to the right to own meaning and so honest opinions and again after one year we kind of continue to reside to demand that the d is the stock. and on october 7th, it didn't start on october 7 that out of ear. so the case, in fact, all documented violations against the policy and people must displacements are re threading that then should be thought of yeah, less than detention including of children. of course the eh, and force of these up periods. everything that he's really, he's has been doing over the past 12 months, was not forwarding to the body. students was already at already been done. and now it doesn't been escalated on a, about an unprecedented level. and that's part of a design to this totally destroy you. want to remain so fine as being in life. yeah,
12:09 am
i'm not as confused on his cna is that escalation that you're talking about includes the killing of hundreds of do nice of nations workers. that's one of the reasons that you will say. you said to the 2 days ago that the un should consider suspending israel and you are not the only one special reval to who is quoting for that. but that also requires not just the consent of the general assembly, but i understand the recommendation of the security council. yep, absolutely. i mean, 1st of all, there should be a number standing, a y, a so many special russell doors are asking for the suspension of ease, throat, and at least the warning eastern is not about how to fit for your all city will be tough, both against the gaza and the policy which led to the general side, i know one and it's extremely painful for me to say that because people's life comes before any other consideration. and on the same time this year alone is that
12:10 am
on the has, i've talked to 70 percent on rough credit is just killed. i'm to yesterday 237 un personnel in guys. i know the thought of getting the peacekeepers declared that the secretary general pursued, i don't go back into the with the independent disburse, including myself. but that means let's let to be independent experts to stay out of the days. in the assault, a case against the united nations, from the general assembly duty agencies or anything on the ground. lesbian, i'm pressing the ends of just 2 days ago. and these are the fast, they just nation that's good spot to any to thought and decided to prevent unless trouble bit 18 in the new provided by the students average over which is that on has no magick to make. don't go to your silver rainy days. are these just another little formal buying power and the surgery? and he said it'll be the withdrawing and respecting international. it is the and
12:11 am
he's dying down. you see the nobody. so you see the problem to the united nations. why should the united nation store a such a c to evaluate or reach the national which pass that incredible on over the system over multilateralism and set the precedent for the state when we left 0 respect for the organization that surprisingly the same. yeah, that's exactly what i was going to ask you, you know, when you say genocide, an aside and i know what you mean by that. what does this mean for the international rules based order? these are all, i'm very allergic to international bass or their because they're 1st of all teach that there is no order that is not there anymore. there are rules that are met goodness and there is just gales disorder and it comes bleed. hi jackie. oh, that rules and the, and the mechanisms by your group of states expect,
12:12 am
i mean there is east that are there is there the united states, but they expect to, to, to the world according to their own home. and is the scales. and this is not true as bechtel multilateralism. so you'll see the, the more get out there on the system is already shaky. is a really breaking and the more it takes to return to signing teacher and i turned to a possible research. the deeper the cost would be comp francesca, albany, as a we thank you very much for your time, as always a thank you. the united nations is mocking the international data end. impunity for crimes against journalists. secretary gentle latonya gutierrez, highlighted gaza saying it seemed the highest number of kennings of journalist in any vol and decades. the committee to protect you in a says sense the will began. a 126 palestinian journalists and media workers have

12:14 am
in context. there is an immediate physical, a threat of from war from active warfare. they are as tried the recurrent, the ground incursions of areas across the gauze front and the intense bombing campaign and to enforce internal displacements civilian areas. an infrastructure, how often been targeted, impacted by military airs, practice making it very difficult for journalist to report safely as their own with and often little time of in pending or warning of impending attack happening journalists are not. oh is it provided with uh, with safe core doors to report a from and they are often left in areas that are targeted as there are no clear the zine areas as designated safe area for journal. this to reported from all of this together. having read the flight of journalist across the gaza strip would be comes thing a talk then the deliberate targeting of them and their families just made it difficult
12:15 am
for them to report safely. honey, my, what i was just the or from the central america of the guys or for palestine. lebanon's prime minister was calling for an investigation into the kidnapping of a citizen in the middle of the country. and is there any military official says naval forces captured a senior member of his bala open. 25 is one of the soldiers was seen landing on but 2 beach carrying weapons and equipment. they seized the man before leaving and speed boats. and long con has moved from but to as a kid, nothing of operation made under the cover of darkness is reading. they will come on . those of seeing hey, on security camera reading a northern lebanese town, and kidnapping, a citizen. he was late to identified as a might. i'm a has israel claims he's a senior hezbollah operative but the lebanese government say he was a civilian at sea captain,

12:22 am
is part of another pattern where israel, the raids, sometimes 12, sometimes to doesn't sometimes to read, doesn't have a study in villages or towns and refugee camps across the occupied west back every day. and we've seen a special focus on refugee camps in the past and award is home to a 1000. but we've seen several very large scale raids on refugee camps further to the north in the occupied west bank like north shops where the as office of under while the you, an agency for palestinian refugees was deliberately destroyed and damaged by these ready forces just a day after these really conduct a bond, the organization from working in the occupied territory. the spain's prime minister is deploying an additional $5000.00 troops and $5000.00

12:32 am
the last we can, they can validate the voters that go to james bags in washington, dc for us special coverage. james, the ladies, thank you very much and welcome back to washington, d. c. and all vantage points white above the white house. the white house of the us is that foss defense of israel has it weighs more on garza and lebanon, and its failure to secure a peace deal is further on the mind its image as the global enforcer. this comes ultimately faddie is in iraq and afghanistan, and the domestic backlash against phone interventions. what else got panel of guess? benjamin freedman, and matthew chronic about that in a moment. and whether the u. s. can still be the world's global placement. but let me 1st catch up on what's been going on on the election trial today. and both presidential candidates account painting in the southern battleground states, the democratic democrats cool couple of hours, just holding a valley in charlotte, the largest city in the swing states of north carolina. she was in atlanta,
12:33 am
georgia, just a few hours before going on, voters to turn the page on the decade of donald trump. meanwhile, republican candle, donald trump, himself about to step out of the podium in salem, virginia. it's a consent to the corner of the state. this voted for the democrats in the last presidential election. hilda riley just a few hours ago, and guess, sonia north carolina. he'll be back in north carolina to night. for another rally demonstrators in america's largest hour. the majority city have been evincing that i'm the head of the vote on tuesday. many have expressed a satisfaction with us to support for israel's more on garza 11. and i don't believe either how much or trump can offer a solution is to raise a bow found out in table in michigan. i'm here in the dearborn visited the city with the largest american population in the united friday from our president. donald's mom came here to appeal voters. there's lots of disenchantment
12:34 am
with the current pricing with the funding. it smells and failing to stop the to just stay here. today they say said there is no so i didn't, this is no need to come in a hurry, but i'm also going out there saying that. 7 the guy said right now there is no genocide joining me now. if somebody sees from the knowing she's part of this protest, somebody tell me a little bit, why are you here today? i am here today because because we want people to know and we want everybody to know that drums and areas, they were not welcome. in dearborn. trump made his visit yesterday and he made a clear that he wants to get it. i don't know what busy is talking about, where millions of people have been getting killed, slaughtered by our money, by our taxes, money. so we paid for them to walk
12:35 am
a lot of families and our cousins and our people were 2nd friday, of course, take advantage were taken from their bonds. they don't belong in dearborn, they belong somewhere else. my dear boy. so this protest is, i'm going, this is a bit of a feeling among many of the residents here in the city of dearborn, even though the iras american population, we present around one percent in this country. there's been an important voltage mostly because they're located in swing states, fact michigan we've been seeing in the past few or a 1000 people taken to the sweets just like this protesting against the world guys against the warner living and what, what they're saying. now, this is the time to show the way they feel the way they think of their anger, of the words that are going right now in the middle east, on the polls. and what they want to make sure is that the wars and the been on the war on guys, guys. yeah, we're not going to know a bit of trouble. i just see that dearborn michigan the out of americans. it was critical to joe biden winning michigan in 2020,
12:36 am
with one pulse suggesting 86 percent of the photos back to serial vanya, it breaks down the numbers in the state that could have significant impact in the selection for months when american state that has regularly featured in our coverage of israel's war on gaza has been michigan swing states with 15 electrical votes. for decades, michigan has been part of the democrats so called blue wall voting for the party in election after election until 2016. in 2016 trump won the state by a razor thin margin, just under 12000 votes. out of more than 4000000 cost in 2020 byte and one michigan back. but a lot has changed since then. israel's war on gaza seen an outpouring of anger among arab americans, a group which normally skews heavily democratic. and michigan is the swing state with the largest share of arab american voters. does the war affect how the vote? absolutely. earlier this year, more than a $100000.00 democrats punish to joe biden,
12:37 am
for his handling of the conflict voting against him during michigan's primary. instead of supporting his re nomination as candidates, they chose uncommitted, and less than 2 months before election day, the uncommitted national movement declared that it would not endorse calmly harris or donald trump to that. now, the most closely watched part of the state will be here. that's wayne county home to americas, auto, capital, detroit, the state's largest city, also home to dearborn, the country's 1st arab american majority city. nearly a 140000 people who trace their heritage to the middle east and north africa live in wayne county by one more than 68 percent of the vote here in 2020, but anger over his administration's middle east policy could change that and lower the turn out for harris. now if we step back and look at michigan as a whole, arab americans represent just 3 percent of the population. most of the americans make up around 2 and a half percent, not a big number. so what it really matter,
12:38 am
arab american support is flowing to minor party candidates. that's bad news for harris, but there's a long history of them doing well in the polls, but it getting few actual votes on election day. and it's just as possible that voters unhappy with both trump and harris will stay home and not vote at all. meanwhile, thousands of protest as a gathering in washington dc for the annual national women's march. and with the election just 3 days away, most of marching and supportive couple of harris, the women's march movement launched just a day off the donald trump single duration in 20. 17 was sparked by his policies, which many consider me searching as let's go now to my call, the kristen salumi, who's the march in washington dc. i remember covering that much back in 2017 kristen. what are they trying to accomplish today?
12:39 am
for james? this is a major, get out the vote effort organized by some of the comma le harris's most passionate, strongest supporters. women who are concerned about reproductive rights in this country. harris does hold a double digit lead and polls with women voters in this country. but male voters are tending towards trump, so it isn't all hands on deck moment. you can see the thousands of people behind me lined up in the streets. they're going to be walking to the white house. and i have with me here, one of the demonstrators, jamie k parts. she came all the way from colorado to be here across the country. why is that to me? because i care about women and i care about people of color. and i care about the queer community and i've never in my life time seen it under attack, and it breaks my heart. i come from texas, i was born and raised in texas and they are my vote. didn't matter. this is the 1st time i've ever voted,
12:40 am
and i'm so proud to be here. and i would like to introduce you also to my sister, we were we were united a about a year ago, right? about a year ago and we were raised, or i was raised by our father who hated women. he called women horrors, but you know, he fathered her. she never got to meet him and i'm glad she didn't write up glad she didn't. so this is obviously very emotional for, for you to stand up for women's rights. what's your fear? if donald trump, or to get elected again, here for our daughter is we have here for everybody else. i just sorry, i can't even imagine what's gonna happen to this nation. this is going to take it back to me. certainly thank you so much for your for your time and your thoughts. i, james, you can see just how emotional this issue is for so many women women that we've
12:41 am
talked to here. it would come from all around the country and there are events happening in other parts of the country as well. but this is the main one, as you said, organized by the same people who organized the 2017 march after donald trump was inaugurated as president. and they are very eager to encourage other people to vote and vote for harris so that trump does not get into power again the well that we had kristen some strong language but showing i think the very roar emotions that i've always just to anyone who was offended as the united states as being the primary political ministry and economic and force in the world since the 1990s in 2005, president george w bush spoke about spreading democracy and freedom with the goals of what he called ending. turn in the world, but often ministry debacles in iraq and that's kind of started on the growing threat posed by china and russia. many in the u. s. one that government to focus on domestic priorities. it's a beautiful city, possibly off ticket. i sit by donald trump,
12:42 am
a couple of harris accuses him promoting isolationism. i believe it isn't the fundamental interest of the american people for the united states to fulfill our long standing role of global leadership as president biden. and i have made clear over the past 3 years as we are committed to pursue global engagement, to uphold international rules and norms, to defend democratic values at home and abroad, and to work with our allies and partners in pursuit of shared goals. we are ending the era of and list which. busy is in this place is a renewed, clear eyed focus on defending america's vital interests. it is not the duty of us
12:43 am
troops to solve ancient conflicts in far away lands. that many people have never even heard of. we are not the policeman of the world as well. now let's discuss this more with my pedal of guest. so with me here, you know, if i wanted to point above the white house i have with me benjamin friedman, policy direct defense priorities, especially obviously as include nato, a middle east policy, i matthew crooning, who's vice president of the atlantic council. i want to ask whether the us can still be the world's global placement and whether it wants to be. but let's start with that question. can the us, matthew still be the global policeman, given the off to the full of the, but i'm old. it was all period was a so low superpower in the world. that's very different now. well, 1st, thanks for having me here and what a spectacular view. and before we look forward, i think we should look back for just
12:44 am
a moment because the united states has been the world's leading power in your intro . you said since the end of the cold war, but i'd say really since the end of world war 2, that slide what we've referred to as a rule space, the international system. that's what the 80 years of great power piece standards of living in the united states and around the world are 5 times higher today than they were 19451945. there are about 12 democratic countries in the world today, there are 96, so the world is safer, richer and freer today, i think because of us leadership. so we all do have an incentive to make sure that the united states continues to play that role. and i think that it can and that it will then you heard in just the say the rules by system. they'll be people watching this all around the go. well go really. because yeah, yeah, you've got bite and making very strong comments about how civilians need to be protected in ukraine and that yes, yeah. you have to us allowing israel to continue bombarding gaza. it's been condemned israel by the united nations security council,
12:45 am
the united nations general assembly, even the top colt of the rules by system, the international court of justice. well, i think the united states, as moral authority, has always been more uh, a domestic convention then a global phenomenon. and we've always been really hypocritical in a lot of ways. certainly during the cold war, when we did a lot of things in the name of the cold war that we're now some of the liberal values. and that continues today. don't think the warranty is real and the support for it is really new in that regard. but i will say that i don't think the united states being the world's policeman is really actually based on moral authority. it's based on raw power. it's based on military power states. they'll come to the united states as badly as we might behave and ask for help to intervene militarily asked for alliances. and i think really it's all a mistake. it's largely a mistake. i think the united states as tried to be the world's policeman, to our detriment. the advantages that mat talks about are really you have nothing
12:46 am
to do with these military interventions and kind of wasted spending that we'd uh, wait to try to police the world. so i think it would be nice whoever's present, if we can pull back a bit and stop lecturing the world about our values and stop trying to run the world militarily. follow up on that map. i mean the, the, the us is marlos r. c said was never really being that, do you agree with that? i disagree. i think the united states. yes, i agree that the united states is the only country with the power to lead the system. but i also think it's the only one with the moral authority. i think our democratic allies in europe and asia see the united states and a fundamentally different light than in the way they see other powers like china, which does engage in gross human rights abuses, systematically cheats on international trade threatens. it's neighbors like taiwan in the philippines. so i think what, what is the standard of comparison if we're comparing the united states to something ideal standard that's never existed in the world and never will exist? but no, it doesn't meet that standard. if you compare it to every other great power that
12:47 am
has existed through world history, then i think what the united states has done over the past 80 years is really remarkable indeed. but what about my specific point meant about the, the wall that we've seen now for almost a team months on gaza. 43000 people killed by israel condemnation of israel and the us does nothing to writing in israel. it seems they seem, you could argue to have shredded the standards of international trade, 18 monetary laws, the geneva conventions, today's even matter anymore. and this is old with the us, the providing the providing the money. i see it very differently. i think an important part of making a rule of space system work is defending the system against those that want to tear down. so these are autocratic revisionists great powers like china, rogue states like a ron interest groups like come austin. so you can't have a functioning rules based system if you have a terrorist group running gaza conducting attacks and israel. so i think
12:48 am
eliminating come off is an important part of having a functioning rules based system. and, and israel's actually going to great lengths to comply with the law of armed conflict. there are nuclear power. they could have just new guns if they wanted to . oh, hang on a minute. i mean, they could have new garza, i mean the yes, but i mean that that is the, the is the most appalling thing, the spectacle you'll suggesting a holocaust. you think the fact they didn't carry out all the cost means that they're acting responsibly? no, but the way you set it up was that somehow they're engaging and barbaric practices and, and they're being very careful dropping leaflets on houses, warning people and buildings that they need to get out of the building before they conduct the military operation. you're not watching the same pictures on much. well, you're maybe not talking to the same experts on the love word that i'm talking to. you know, war is hell and people die in war. but there is a long tradition of just war theory, codified and international law that says that as long as you're going after
12:49 am
military targets trying to limit collateral damage a bit, that's legal under international law. and what is real is doing is legal under. i've spoken to lots of international lawyers, lawyers, and i've also seen the judgments of the international court of justice, which sits at the very top of your rules based order that you're talking about. but the systems in place, this rules by system, the united nations, all of this, i mean it's existed since the 2nd world war. is it fit for purpose in any way? well, i think it's good for the purpose and a lot of ways and that it's, it's always been, i think the, to the extent there's a, an international order since world war 2. it's existed to serve really the interest of the great powers united states and some ways longer is it's preferences through international organizations. and you know, the degree to which that's exposed is kind of hollow very is and now i think the warranty is really is exposing. and i mean, i think it's kind of wild to say that, you know, we're bombing civilians and guys, or israel's bombing civilians with our weapons. and somehow that serving liberal
12:50 am
values, you know, tell that to the people the bottom of the rubble pile. i think, you know, it gets real as clearly violating, i think, normal practices of targeting by being very on selective about what they have. so anyway, i think, you know, the united states is reputation has certainly taken ahead. but it also say, i think, you know, our reputation again doesn't really died that many countries in the world. i think it's a bit over stated to say people like us just because we're seen as the good guys. i think a lot of people are just in it for what they can gain from tagging along with us power and the world is a little more self interested and transactional than that. do it mean it's not. do you think the us all of it even wants to be the wells global placement anymore? we had the clip from donald trump a bit later on. i think the united states still does want to play that role. and so we heard the clip from harris, where she was very clearly defending us international leadership. and i think it's a mistake to say that trump is somehow isolationist. he's been president for 4
12:51 am
years. we saw how he governed, and he was very involved internationally personal diplomacy with kim jo noon using force multiple times in the middle east to go after general. so the money of iran to go after a sod after he gassed his own people with chemical weapons, diplomacy in europe, including with putting over ukraine. so. so i think he was an internationalists president and his 1st term and will be an international as president in his 2nd term. then you'll reaction to that quickly. what do you make of the 2 candidates? i agree, trump is not an isolated is sort of a militarist, i think i, which is more of an isolationist on a ron, on china, where he's very hawkish. so there's no kind of a restraints peaceful option. there's no doubt this option here. harris is definitely more the sort of liberal international was status quote, when trump is more transact celeste, but america's not coming home regardless of who's president. matthew benjamin. thank you very much for joining us. for this discussion, i'll just share a little, have comprehensive,
