the way that this issue is framed new media, the escalation fu escalation. and even you here is that are, you know, the media, the listening pace because the media on out is era. the the hello and how to go, hey, this is the al jazeera news, our live from washington dc with our special coverage from our rooftop studio overlooking the white house. election day is here. tens of millions of americans will be heading to the polls to choose their next president. the candidates have made their final appeals, the voters, donald trump promised to lead america to new heights of glory if elected as star

studies final rally for cala harris, where she urged people to go out and vote, insisting that every vote counts. and i'm very novel guys. out here in the hall where we're closely following developments in the united states and the world is washing to. we have teams from garza to bay routes and to ron, looking at how the next us presidents for the fact the region. but it's the people of gauze, all that stuff are the most. both candidates have promised continued support to israel. nearly 43000 palestinians have been killed so far, the hello and welcome to washington dc. it is finally election day and tens of millions of motors will be casting their valid on tuesday to decide whether cala harris or donald trump get to move in to the white house behind me. about 70000000 people

have already voted ahead of election. day poll suggests the race is very tight throughout the day, will be joined by our panel of experts to discuss the main issues and examine what's at stake in this election. polls and 6 of the 7 crucial spring states have opened as voters cast their ballots for the next us president polling stations had opened in arizona, georgia, north carolina, pennsylvania, michigan, and wisconsin. among other states across the country. more than 240000000 americans are eligible to vote in this year's election. we have several correspondence in battleground states following the election. we have heidi joe castro. she's in wisconsin. fil labelle isn't north carolina. my camera in pennsylvania were comma harris held her last campaign rally. we'll speak to that in just a few minutes, but 1st, let's take a look at the camp pace setters. final campaign events. us vice president campbell harris, close out her campaign in philadelphia, pennsylvania for training herself as the under dog in the 2024 presidential

election. she urged motors to get to the polls telling them this could be one of the closest races in us history. kimberly hawk, it begins our coverage from the of the the next president of the vice president, connell harris began her final campaign pitch to voters deliberately choosing the philadelphia museum of art with its iconic rocky steps from the 1976 film behind her. and here. a at these famous steps, attribute to those who star as the underdog and climb the victory here is believe she started her campaign the same way. she goes into a election day with a narrow lead in for national polls over her republican rival,

donald trump. this could be one of the closest races in history, but 3 other national polls show a statistical tie that makes the outcome of the 2020 for presidential election unpredictable, especially in battle ground pennsylvania. we need everyone to vote in pennsylvania and you will decide the outcome of the selection. pennsylvania harris spent monday for us crossing the state, making 4 stops over the weekend. her campaign knocked on the doors of 1300000 homes to ensure pennsylvania residents recognize the importance of their vote. will be anxiety and the fear you're feeling. you're feeling that because you sense the danger and you change that with your boat. harris told her supporters, her campaigns been fighting for what she believes the country needs and what she hopes to deliver every as its next president. and you will decide the outcome of

the selection pennsylvania. but voters may not know the outcome of the us selection right away. millions of smelling ballads from state sleigh, pennsylvania can't be counted until the morning of election day. that means the election results may not be known for hours, days or even weeks. kimberly healthcare alger 0, philadelphia, pennsylvania. donald trump spend his last day of campaign in battleground states. the city of grand rapids in michigan has become the former president's final stops, and all 3 of his campaigns for the white house. he finished his campaign. they're promising, promising to lead america to new heights of glory and fisher reports for pittsburgh, pennsylvania, or trump, help rallies earlier in the day. there's never been a more important 24 hours for donald trump when i need to come to you as president

. lose any faces numerous court cases which could in, in a prison sentence. so in the final full day of this presidential race, the campaign name and hard course in north carolina were way leading. oh yeah. then in pennsylvania, i have been waiting for years. is this the state both sides and i believe could decide the white house. republicans trying to sure up is riddled backing, but more importantly for him. latino support of damaging and controversial comments at a riley just over a week ago. raleigh, have to do is get out and wrote, and we walk away with the greatest political event in history, but much more important. it's going to be the event of saves countries that pittsburgh with thousands, got it. and the low and voice of republican defense, dude, and protest, i am here to try to play a proceed with fellow republicans than anybody who's listening. the trump. and

those that are in the mag and movement that are enabling and supporting him are not real conservatives. and we went in michigan, we went all things all on the final rally in grand rapids, michigan. trump repeating the pattern from 20162020 hoping that will bring him luck after checking the country, donald trump will watch the election results. so this home in florida, his team is confident in pennsylvania. we wellbeing aly indicator. if donald trump is heading back to the white house, or as the president is one and done all the fisher, i'll just say to pittsburgh, pennsylvania. so let's now go to like kelley, who is in philadelphia, is the commonwealth that every analyst says is probably the most important. like i think it's important to tell our viewers, that voting in the us is often hard. you can wait in line for hours, so you're at a polling place. what are you seeing on the ground?

are we going to see a ground swell long lines? what do you see? well at the moment i'm in downtown philadelphia where perhaps it will be less of a squeeze of photos than in the more open. oh girl suburban areas. at the moment this being the city cube behind me hear about me full moving very quickly. as you say, business complication, a lot of areas with people do sometimes have to wait in hours as a voting process continues, but i'm outside to the museum of the american revolution which is suitable, perhaps in a city, the absolute, the weeks of history down the road is independent tool, the liberty bell, the house of benjamin franklin, but never in some 240 years. has it been a democratic process quite as important as what is happening in pennsylvania on this day. the margins are raised in cumberland, harris, donald trump, nick and nick. and it will be this day perhaps that will determine the ultimate

victor. one must remember that since 2008, pennsylvania has voted for every person that went on to occupied the white house. but let's not forget it as well. what else is at stake here, looking down the pallets the senate raise? it's in in congress, as is the house of representatives, a senate race here i to lead critical. bob casey, this is dave mccormick won't be watching that one very closely. then the 7th and 8th congressional districts. these are very important in terms of who controls the house of representatives. so we've got to focus on the whole picture. presidential race, absolutely critical. yes. but it's down the ballad to that could determine the structure of the future governments of this country. and it said this will be watching as the day goes on as well. but a critical day here in philadelphia, and we'll be watching as it goes on and things

like that. certainly very important because this, the president doesn't have their own party and congress really hard to get anything done. so let's now move on to show the value joins us from raleigh in north carolina. so it's been sort of a uniquely as new 6 that people are voting early. i think it was part of partially because of the pandemic. what we're seeing, record numbers across the country. what are you seeing there in north carolina? a yeah, absolutely fascinating. you know, this pouting station here in the city of raleigh elections past has been absolutely packed. but if you look at it now, there is just a very slow stream stream of people now at 630 this morning, web post right from. so that was what just over an hour and a half ago in the talk to of people lined up waiting to go in. once they were in, we've seen people come in slow. do you ever seen all kinds of people people in suits, people in nurses, uniforms, people in high visibility jackets obviously can be here before they go to work. i've been getting off because the reason it's probably slower here is because of the early voting, north carolina. so i broke its record under the voting by sunday,

the post close to the go through on saturday night and they got these pieces the numbers past the throat unaided, 11000000 people in misstate out of those 7700000 of them registered voters also 7700000 registered voters, 4200000 up already costs that bought it, that costs i bought it before the end of the weekend. so that just goes to show how a lot of people have made that decisions already. and now they're at home over there. at work and waiting to see how they state funds out. what is really interesting though, is how those any votes are going to be distributed because a 3rd of this state lives in a rural setting. so you've got these densely populated cities like raleigh, like charlotte lights are where they tend to vote more democrats. but then you've got these rural areas where they tend to put more republicans on of those uh, global areas. it was those areas that were hit hard by hurricane to lead. they are the ones that sold the most of the voting out of all the states. i just think about it for a 2nd. we're talking about people who have lost their homes. they've lost that cause they've gotten nowhere to live. they've got so much going on. they don't know

where they're going to be for one day to the next. and yet they felt compelled to go out and to vote at each and make sure that that balance were. and now this could be one of 2 things. this could be people who support donald trump, who was so outraged by what they heard him say. because remember, for weeks he has been saying that the disaster emergency teams have been ignoring areas that were hit by hurricane lead, specifically because they support him. and so it could be people who are outraged at that and have felt compelled to go out and vote. conversely, it could be people who are democrats from about ashville, which was the main city in that area that was decimated, leads very much, and the democrat direction. this could be people who was so outraged because they are seeing these teams on the ground. this has misinformation that's been spread by donald trump. i must say we've actually been there ourselves. we seen these teams on the ground. these could be people who are so outraged by what they've heard him say that they have felt compelled to vote, but it just goes to show how incredible it is a moment in history that you've got people who have lost everything. and yet those

are the ones who are specifically getting out, and those are the ones who are specifically driving up there to turn out. and vote to turn out is going to be a massive issue because even in a densely sit at the bench be packed, the city of charlotte, big metropolis here, that's a mecklenburg county unimed previous selections that has on the phone when it comes to vote, to turn out i'm asked, we have heard from both candidates, it is down to that vote to turn out. they need to get every single person out today . so thanks so much to really good information in there. how you doing cash or is live for from bearable wisconsin. so heidi wisconsin has for decades been reliably democratic. that's why it's part of what's called the blue wall. intel trump. what is driving his support? they're absolutely patty and in this county where i'm at now, soc county this has really been a bell weather for how the rest of the state will vote. the support for trump as

you were asking that was shattered. and as, or the support for democrats that was shattered in 2016 when trump 1st one really carried by white world motors here in the state of wisconsin. also from the manufacturing sector. now in stock county, we're just northwest of the state, capital of madison. and this isabel, whether because in the last 4 presidential election, this county was one of just 2 that predicted correctly the winners. not only of the state but of the country. now in 2025 and one here by just 292 votes in 2016 trump 515809. and of course we're all watching to see how wisconsin vote with its 10 electoral college votes. as you said, it's part of this blue wall. harris is trying to show up after it came back to support biden in 2020. and the turn out here across the state has shown that

enthusiasm, one and a half 1000000 early voters in wisconsin, which is on track to make history. and the polling here shows a tight between harris and between trump. she had a slightly larger lead going into those last few days of the campaign. although this is still within the margin of error. and we seen that urgency behind both campaigns, criss crossing the state of wisconsin along with our surrogates. both vice presidential candidates were here in wisconsin can training yesterday, and they're trying to deliver messages targeted at what they hope will be their building coalitions. the democrats trying to turn out suburban voters, women in particular, who may be turned off by trump and his messaging on abortion with the republicans targeting the rural areas and also trying to make inroads to young men who are supporting trump, and particularly black young man. and latino, those who have shown more favor for him than they did for for him in the past

election. so all of that is now swirly around these orders had we've had this line of voters here for at least a half hour, even though the polls just opened 15 minutes ago. and they're waiting to go inside and make their voices heard when we might expect the results from wisconsin on certain, potentially a little past midnight. and we'll get those early voting numbers in 2020, the state was called the next day friday. so we have a long few hours ahead of us and we will be watching with bated breath. thanks so much. all right, a michigan promises to be one of the tightest battles along the swing states, long a democratic stronghold. trump, trump took the rest of the state in 2016. theresa bo reports from detroit. michigan is a crucial swing states. donald trump was elected here back in 2016 for only 10000 votes . later on, joe biden defeated him in 2020,

so winning here is crucial to make it to the white house. so to talk about the issues affecting the african american community, here is michael harris. mike, you tell me a little bit how you feel about this production. you attended service with cabinet . how is why do you think this vote is important? is one in the most historic elections of all time? cause have donald trump get in the office? he's going to 9 late the black community. i just believe that the black me and the black people need to vote for kalama. here's one of the things that we're seeing in the pose at the many african american men are not going to go to vista concern. and why is this happening? a lot of the black man for whatever reason. they, it's not a priority didn't. it is not serious enough and then they got to understand people died for the right for us to vote. and for whatever reason these black mean they

need to wake up. black, me hear me right now. vote two's vote for kilometers. vote black mean wake up, invoke. thank you very much. so as you see, there's lots of concerns for members of the african american community to go out and vote. they were present around 13 percent of the voters in the state and play a crucial role in the upcoming elections. the african american community and the state has struggled with poverty, unemployment, and even segregation. that's why there's lots of concerns of what could happen if someone like donald trump makes it to the presidency. but right now, turn out is crucial for pamela. harry's convincing people to go out and vote to be able to win. and the state based i will just see that detroit, michigan, one of the sunbelt states that all eyes will be out is nevada harris will be hoping to hold onto the state of both finance lynch and one john home. and is there i'm

doing a home in the bible ground say isn't it. 1 the home to las vegas wherever one comes to think, get their problems, but not me, selection the nation's highest unemployment for putting inflation and housing shortage. all of the issues here. i mean, nevada is an increasingly diverse electra is going to be coming out to vote on about 30 percent of the population latino. they going to be key, sorry to asian americans on the margins, a waste, a thing. this could be the 1st time in 16 is that the silver states turns from democrat blue to republic can read its high stakes and the biggest game in town. the rise between donald trump and campbell harris is tightening in the important battle ground state of nevada. both candidates have made stops there in terms of the electoral college votes. the state represents the smallest prize among all sudden swing states, and it's difficult to predict which way its voters will turn 0 then yay explained.

let's pull up the us, select on map again and take you to one of america's fastest growing states, and that is nevada. the only 6 electoral votes but nevada packs a punch. take a look at this since 1980. it has boated for the winter in every election but one, and that was 2016 versus the elections in nevada. it had been close when hillary clinton won the state in 2016, despite losing the presidency. she carried it by just 2 points. joe biden is marching in 2020 was only a tiny bit larger than that. so that means donald trump last nevada. both times he was on the ballot. let's take a look now at the states voting demographics. nevada is a diverse state, less than half of its population is white, and more than a quarter are hispanic followed by black and asian populations. if we break that down $1.00 and $5.00 possible voters in nevada is hispanic job, i'm 160 percent of that. both last time, but this time trump is making inroads into that critical building block both here in arizona and nationally. according to this poll,

watch that blue line that's democratic presidential candidates over the years, and the red is for republicans. harris is under performing compared to previous democratic candidates, but nevada is growing so quickly that it is notoriously difficult to pull and predict who will ultimately win this key swing state. right now my favorite part, what's bringing our guests? peggy gra grandy is the former executive assistant to president ronald reagan bar brown is a political commentator and a former political appointee during president clinton's administration. while l z i, it is chief executive officer of engage foundation, a national civic engagement organization for muslim americans. welcome all, do you believe is actually here? we're gonna feel like we've been talking about a minute or 2 so long. okay. laura, i wanna start with you cuz i think you're one of the smartest political scientist in dc. now i made everyone else mad, but it's true for every single person. it's so close. it's so close. we're not

going to know for weeks. is it close? this is the are the polls, right? so i don't think it's actually as close as the polls appear to be. i think what we have to recognize is that there is about a 10 percentage point gap in the early vote in favor of women. and i do think that there is a big question today about whether or not former president trump strategy to pull out men, especially young men who may not have a history of voting. will they actually get there and even out that early vote or will women continue to prevail? and if they do end up with an electric that is 54 percent women, it is likely to swing to harrass by large numbers. peggy, do you agree? the abortion issue? of or should access is, was just absolutely electrified. so that's the now voter and it's on the ballot and

10 states. do you see these huge numbers of women voting as a bad sign for the trumpet and says you do support donald trump? i do, and i what i see is the early voting, as laura said, is going to be crucial. and the difference this year is republicans are turning out in large numbers to early vote. we know that in 2020 donald trump and his supporters were very reticent to go out in early vote or male vote. and we see historic numbers right now of early voting from republicans. and so whether that's pulling away from those who would typically go to the polls on election day, or whether it's just adding to and broadening his face. we have yet to see. but i, i'm excited and infused by the early turn out from a republican standpoint, or are they republicans voting for commer harris while they could be democrats voting for donald trump as well? yeah. as much so the okay, well to talk to you because this is not just about a horse race, these 2 candidates could not be further apart. so i think foreign policy is hugely

important. do you expect? let's just go through some of the areas when it comes to the stance of the iron clubs, commitment to i to israel, that we constantly hear from this white house. do you see any difference between what biden and i'm sorry, what harris and trump would do when it comes to ending the suffering? yeah. you know, interestingly in the end, the end, the final days before the polls opened up both candidates, both donald trump and vice president harris really stressed that if elected, they want to bring this war to an end, which is really interesting giving the typically, you know, you talk about the economy, you talk about domestic issues, and i using a for a policy issue and meeting the selections because most of the voters could be the deciding factor in states like michigan, perhaps even in pennsylvania or even in georgia where just a sliver of margin could make the difference here, and so they are leaning in a bit of vice versa, has just recently said that she will do whatever she can't. and as for donald trump

said that few days before that he wants us for to be at. however, i do think they are real differences. at the end of the day. donald trump was the architect of the abrahamic, according to the abrahamic records bypass the question of palestinian statehood and the occupation and many believe that's what we have been seeing is a by product of that frustration on the part of the palestinians. and the reason another point is that what we're hearing regarding the supporters and also going to be working for a, in a shop administration and, and many of them support israel's annexation of the west bank. and that's a real threat to the rest of the palestinians. and their costs for liberation. so i do think that there are some big differences. i think we need to just really go in on that and i apologize ladies, i will get you. do you really think that if donald trump selected president, he'll say to israel, go ahead, just display, solve the west bank again? well, look, hated for the goal on heights. and he did for introduce little by moving the us embassy there. i think the west bank is obviously a bigger deal, but he received

a $100000000.00 from those who support israel's annexation of the west. back and look at his son in law and, and, and a very influential figure on the lease policy, jerry christian, or is a big proponent of reshaping the reason in a way that's advantageous to the is really state to have normalization with our world, which is a good thing in itself, but again, they neglect the question of palestinian statehood and freedom. and i think donald trump look, he's at maverick. it is possible and he's close in espanol, and in fact, some of the destiny i was on ministers, preferred net trump to come back. and they are those who believe that nothing y'all is waiting just for these elections to be over. and ideally for trump, to win for him to hand them a cease fire and it has a and then to exchange that for a new reality on the ground, that is the real concern here is that he will support a ceasefire. that to me, i want me to give it to him, and then we end up with a similar situation in the west bank of the year or 2. peggy, donald trump has said that he's going to end the war and you create on day one.

obviously, he's going to demand me massive concessions from ukraine. he really wants to get out of nato. it's up and to decades of american foreign policy. you support trump, do you support that policy? well, i support peace through strength, and i think that all these problems that we're having on the world stage were caused by weakness on the world stage by dividing harris administration, whether it was green lighting and encouraged little incursion by and said into ukraine, which turned into a full on invasion, whether it was a weakness on the world stage, which allowed israel to be and, you know, invaded and even what was happening in ukraine and russia. it's, it's weakness on the world state. so we need to return to peace through strength. donald trump represents that and whether it's ukraine, whether it's israel, whether it's other places around the world, people have a healthy fear of a strong america, and that's a good thing that brings peace throughout the world. we see global chaos and it was

caused by the sweetness of this administration. i'm going to check. yeah. and that a little bit because biting was the 1st one to come out and be like, hey, ukraine rushes coming, rushes and bathing. and then like a big way and it was you for, it was like no. okay, but what did he do? he watch those tanks lineup for a week. sorry. did you want him to go to war with russia? i'm just saying it could have been peace through strength you earlier. and by didn't even set well, it depends on whether it's a little incursion or a big invasion. and so by saying a little incursion would be okay. i think he greenlighted a larger invasion. a lot, do you want to take that on or should we talk more about the climate change you fix? well, so i mean, foreign policy is certainly not my area of expertise, but i would say that i, when you look at former president trump, most of how he has promised peace, has actually been to see the american leadership around the world. he has no interest in actually standing up to g and china to put him in russia. he has

embraced authoritarians life or bon. and i think what we're really talking about here is a trump sees that his peas would come through american isolationism. and that is actually a recipe for weakness and for a thorough tearing leaders all over the world to retake control in something of a game of thrones fashion. and it is very, i think terrifying to anyone who does believe in the strength of american leadership. i just want to point out that we can have an intelligent discussion without yelling each other or calling anyone names. i appreciate it so much. what i uh started, like i said, what do you guys want to talk about it? it was football cooking to really. but i thank you. thank you very much for being here. that was quite informative. so i'll just or we'll have comprehensive, special coverage later on tonight. make sure to join us from 22 g m t, that's 5 pm,

east coast time here in the us will have live coverage from across the country with guest and discussion here in washington, dc. and in del huh. that's it from us here in washington dc. we'll have the back now to during, and the rest of the team in the potty. thank you so much. we'll be seeing you a little later on. thank you. we are the news our on alpha 0. it's time for a check on the weather. here's rob with the to current tropical psych loans, one in asia. and one in central america is another one to watch in the philippines . see a developing tropical storm will be a tie soon. if not already, it's not quite as johnson's the last one. you might remember this every nor is it taking the same path, but it's definitely want to watch. now this is using and it looks like it's heading towards the north of the philippines. northern leaves on, in particular where a landfill is a possibility, but the 70 is it, ty, food by this time, late wednesday, early thursday. and is risk therefore are going to be flashed of the for the amount of rain, sorry for any wind damage,

but i think battering waves anyway. this policy is not certain. it's certainly gonna get close to lose. all i want is going across the island is getting little bit of strength. maybe it goes way somewhere into the south china sea promptly turning slowly south, south west with there's another one to watch as well. the other side of the well, once again we're in the caribbean. this is a smaller storm buddies trying to become a hurricane topic identified in a sort of class. that's where it is. it's gonna spend all of tuesday going across the western side of jamaica, causing an awful lot of rain damage, i suspect, but it is still strengthening and it will be sooner. how eric, and heading towards that came in. i was, i'm probably west in cuba during wednesday or thursday. okay. so head on the else is there a news our were look at us support for israel from dos are to loving on and beyond . on what change of presidents could mean the

shooting the doc chapter in the cause of a war. they just took our id, cards, mailed them. they asked him about his name, the killed, the prison, the scene of unspeakable horrors. so i saw a pile of bodies. we had a lot of questions about how these men come to be dead. echoes of the 2 brothers. i must have shut. those are coming soon on that because the, you know, the, there's no limit to have a dream container, stuff in your own adventure, no counter and things the,

the, [000:00:00;00] the television here with the news hour on the alger 0. here are the top stories. this, our polls have opened in the us, including in the battleground states of georgia, pennsylvania and michigan. millions of americans will cast their votes to choose the next president's tons of millions of ballots have already been cost and early voting. the democratic contender, couple of harris made her final appeal to voters and the swing state of pennsylvania late on monday nights. and she says, america is ready to turn the page on the decade of division. while the republican

contender of donald trump made his final page and the state of michigan, the former president promised to fix the us economy and take the country to new heights if re elected. so we'll stay with the us selection and look at the impact that the next president's could have on conflict in the middle east. both candidates, i promise continued support to israel, diplomatic, military and financial well, the by the administration has vetoed, at least 4000 to cease fire resolutions of the united nations security council. and washington has provided nearly $18000000000.00 in military aid to israel since october 2023 for testers and human rights. experts accuse the us of complicity in genocide. the latest strikes of killed at least 6 palestinians is really forces targeted their tents that happened in the town of funds away the end date and by law. it takes the total number of palestinians killed since dawn on tuesday to

$44.00. and at least $43000.00 palestinians have been killed since the start of the war on garza and the occupied westbank is really rates have been carried out daily since last october. at least 4 people were killed in the latest attacks. raids in air strikes were carried out in the areas of janine until of us on tuesday. it's 11 on israel launched more strikes and southern areas on tuesday. the lebanese national news agency says it's really a tax destroy $37.00 towns and more than $40000.00 houses in the south us so, so far, refuse to condemn the is really strikes. okay, so to look at the impacts of us policy in the region, we have 4 teams covering developments and to run by roots and i'm on. but 1st we go to gaza and bring in our correspond to attendance so that he was joining us from that and but of so and like, i mean, palestinians are just basically trying to survive the war and gaza. they've endured

more than a year of genocide. now, is there any hope at all that the us selection is going to make a difference to them? bring any change the setting we must 1st know that we're talking about a whole population that has been being killed. they're being deprived from fluid. they're being deprived from medicine and a lot more. yes, there is an action held in the work on the other side of the world. but on the other side here, there have been people since dropped under the rub up, people are not able to reach their families. they have been a back to ation orders every single week. and today kind of see me is who got those are back to wait for orders got child and also got arrested. now some people believe that this is going to create a change either it's going to get positive change or a negative change. but as far as people here in the gaza strip to not even know what happening outside, because there has been

a complete telecommunications that cause they do not have electricity. they do not know what's happening all day i'm thinking about is, is offering their children one meal for days driving to find watch or driving my mother's head, or try to find the treatment for their children. this is very, very, it's hard on the news and what they care about right now, despite who it is who, who's going to take this election? how does the care about, is this the work to and, and they really looking forward for a ceasefire. okay, and thank you so much for that reporting from gaza. a well bring a note all day joining us from jordan's capital online because that is really government has banned delta 0 from reporting in the occupied westbank on from inside israel. so on israel, is there any sort of um, what feeling and nude are you getting brother from speaking to people inside israel

on which way they think the selection is going to go and how it may change things? well either way that he and his release can count on what americans like to say is america's iron clad support for israel. so on that policy there is no doubt. however, if you are from the nothing, yeah, whole comp, then you are more or less rooting for trump because the thinking is that trump would allow nothing. yeah. how to basically do as he pleases, even if he wants them to wrap up the war. the expectation is that he would give them something in return, possibly an endorsement of his annexation of the occupied westbank. there's even some hinting in the nothing. yeah. whole corners that there is a concern bite and might push for something in those at 3 months after the elections to end the war. but really palestinians are holding their breath,

the opposing side to nothing. yeah. oh, of course it's most, most of it at least is rooting for harris because they believe she might bring a little bit more sense, more continue with the sports, the ability to us policy regarding israel and possibly work towards lowering that temperature ending the war in gaza. and also in the north which has cost the is really economy and the is really soldiers, a lot of blood and tiers for palestinians. it's a very different story there. and as you know, the palestinians have tried donald trump. and when he was in office, he gave away jerusalem as if it was his and he introduced what he called the deal of the century, which basically gave his real control over much of the occupied westbank, bypassed the issue of palestinian independence and went straight to era is really normalization, so they are definitely not looking forward to having trump back in office,

but harris doesn't offer really a lot to look forward to either from a palestinian perspective, she was biden's, vice president biden bankrolled and supported the genocide for the past year. and there was very little expectation that she would deviate from that policy, even though she has a little bit more human rights, frederick wrapped around in her policy speeches, but really very, very low expectations at this point. yeah. in order so when the palestinian a permanent representative to the u. n. v odd months, who says this on president trump? he said our experience with former president trump was not pleasant. he added, we don't know if he, if we don't know if he wins what he will do, what are we to read into those comments and what more if anything has any representative from the palestinian author already set on the us election? well officially palestinian authority has not commented on us selection. that is

a standing policy. they try not to really express any opinion because they don't know who's going to win. but to be honest, if you speak to any palestinian in the political circles, they would tell you that a trump in office would be catastrophic to palestinians. one because he's unpredictable to because his entourage and the people around him and his advisors are basically ultra right wing liquid. next they advocate for the annexation of the occupied westbank. they don't really recognize the existence of the palestinian people trumps former ambassador to israel. just in the past 48 hours talked about just that to that he would not support the establishment of what he said was a terrorist state, powell, city and state right next to israel, that as well should onyx the occupied was spectre. it's questionnaire trumps a son. in law talks about because of being prime real estate that it should be

developed for beach front properties which to palestinian years meant an endorsement of the mass expulsion of palestinian. so really nobody's looking forward to an announcement of a trump when also because it would predictably sideline the palestinian issue even more and give not tenea whole space to do as he pleases in gaza, but also in the effect. okay, thank you. new. thank you for that reporting for my mon. i will go to b roots and bring in dorothy jabari joining us there from there. so what are people saying about whether this us election will make a difference to the war with israel while they're in here at the votes is seeing as possibly in some countries, the difference between war and peace, stability, or volatility. but for the middle east, and many here believe that both candidates where they may differ on many of their policies when it comes to this region,

there are more align than anywhere else. a people here believe that both of the candidates have the same rhetoric that we've been hearing, that they have unconditional support for israel and that are is likely to continue once they are in office. so there isn't a lot of hope hear that things will change drastically. but what we have seen from divided administration is a failed attempts to try and bring about a ceasefire to end this conflict between hezbollah and israel, as it hasn't been successful so far as the official position here from various governments levels that we've heard is that the united states hasn't been at strong enough for it to stand against israel and to pressure as well into agreeing to a cease fire. and that is the government's position. what we've heard from regular, the citizens liberties. i've been speaking to them and tried to gauge whether or not they would like to see a trump presidency or

a harris presidency and many who believe that these 2 candidates are just basically different sides of the same coin. there isn't going to be a drastic change. whoever is voted in to the white house. there is a clear understanding that the us policy is going to be citing with israel. and things will continue as they are, what they are hoping for is either or, or harris, or from will try push for a ceasefire because that's really what people here are. look you for to at the end of the day, regardless of whether or not that will be more likely under trump, or harris is unclear here, given everything that's happened over the past year. what is clear is that there is a desperate need for a cease fire between has the lot is, are all, and that is going to continue over the coming weeks. we have seen as a result of this conflict, nearly a 1000000 and a half lebanese displaced over 3000 people killed. now, nearly 14000 people injured. so people are really just looking forward and, and regardless of who is able to bring that president for the president,

donald trump has said has promised that he's going to bring peace to the middle east without specify how he's going to achieve that. what we have heard over and over again is that it promises are being made from both caps without any proper plan being laid out to the people. what is clear is that they're using the situation in the conflict in the region to try and draw up the support of the airport in the united states. whether or not they'll be able to deliver any tangible results. we'll have to wait. ok, torso, thank you so much for that. reporting from b routes will not cross to iran and speak to our correspond that we're so sorry that was running us from the capital so her on. so ritual, both candidates, either undertaken or then express tough stances on a run. so how is the selection being viewed where you are as well see in your bottom there are no expectations off and a dramatic improvement or the relations between iran and usa,

regardless of who will be the us is next president. however, the question that you're running is, are here asking, is it who is going to be less hostile to versus the around? because both of them before the president, donald trump, and also it was present, come out of hire, was that when they won't records when it comes to the around. and when does when we look at the, to look at trump presidency starting from 2017 until the end of 2021. so he was the president who has to be to go on foot on the gc pruitt. he started nuclear deal between the around the world powers, and then he adopted the maximum pressure of policy, which means more sanctions on the run, more isolation policies for what you're on. and he continued with his hosp policies in 2020. he has assessing a tips, costs, and so they might need the famous popular commander of the course forces we had on, which was regarded as a huge below treat you wrong. so the other hand, these kind of same hospitalizations, have been adopted and continued by democrats as well under the,

under the west presidents who have come out of highways and the presidency off off jo by them. so in that sense, for many iranians come out of how is present so you means more or less the st policies off the by the ministration to continue. but when it comes to trump, many people seem to mind to support trinity. however, the main concern being to around is the um predictability. they see that there is that that blog, definitely the psychological barriers in terms of thought being the president of the united states. however, the main issue withdrawn they've got to the, i mean to the rodney perspective is the unpredictability of how that are more or less we can see that whether it just to, with the governor was more effective for when you talk to the order that you read names on the streets that say that they're not expecting any fundamental difference . okay, 1st of all, thank you for that update from to her on as well. we can also extend period as a former regional editor for the associated press. he also serves as the chairman of the foreign press association in israel, joining us from tel aviv, thanks for your time. so

a recent pull that i was looking at conducted in israel shows that is really, is massively favor donald from over campbell, a harrison here. the statistics, i mean about the 66 percent chose the former president, well only 17 percent chose kind of the harris. how do you explain that? well, there is a perception is real. the trump is simply instinctively, uh, an entry. everybody's in the country does. now the rest of opposition to trump as well, and part of the liberal half of the country, probably more than that, that has a sense, the trump in power is good for perhaps, but not necessarily further on because they themselves opposed to y'all's policies . but look, given the various steps that trump took during his 1st term, but he certainly certainly has a significant support here. and the right has of israel. uh, maybe more than half, maybe less than half depending on,

on issue isaac assumes directly the trumps. doesn't care that much about the humanitarian issues, the hold, the current government and its concepts and causes especially right. so, you know, i understand why, but i think they, they, they may be in for a surprise because trump is also very, very capricious child has no patience with messy things. and i think the chest that trump calls with now and says, and the word no matter what is actually higher the chances. but whenever i say no, what are you basing that on as well as statements where he actually signed the word and do it fast. i think he will care less about that means with which is that you but the idea of putting off with a threat or war when trump himself is on record is, is hating the notion in front of the wars and expands on shaky ground. i mean, you know, you talk a lot about how to find the most ration flat. it's got a sudden truce. they were implementing a awkwardly implementing an agreement that trump came to that was essentially

surrender to intact with on because he hates forever wars. so i think from some patients, i think is capriciousness, i think, in general is inclination to show that he's wielding his power might work in fact against this. but of course it also might no it's, it's definitely for now is not going to care about about, you know, what happens on the ground. and he's doing that. what about harris presidency? i mean harris so so far aligned herself fully with a biden's policies with respect to israel, as well as obviously what's happening on the grounds. and garza, i'm the wide or middle east. in fact, do you think that could change if she were to win the presidency and what would it be for israel? and also get likely, well, you know, i hear the reports of your child, the reading with respect. i think they're missing the point. it's not about for a single ceasefire, and people refuse times these bar. it's about the goals and the us agrees with israel's goals over moving from mazda of mild terrace group from that is committed

the barbaric massacre and continues to present some people term. oh, that sounds awesome and i also agree with the idea that israel cannot possibly put up any more with his boss. all right, and it's border finding rockets out of the best of the rent and actually believe, as frankly i just remove his viola is a favor to the loving these people 1st and foremost. so they agree with israel's goals, harris, i mean the okay, okay, that is something that we, we have to ask the lebanese people about obviously, but just make your points on harris and what it would mean for israel. a look, i know, plenty eliminates on that. no doubt, but okay, as for iris, she agrees with israel's goals also, but it may be uncomfortable with disruption that's caused along the way a look. barden basically had certain designs for them. at least there are certain things he wants to let them know. he want to know, so now you agree to return to the p a uh, to god. so for example, which will create a, the narrative that holds water. if say, for example,

then go to the are countries and say, look, pressure on mazda, really pressure almost to go off because there is this possible narr, the, by the want to do so, no one plane alone. i think the chances trump forces the hand of every of the earth's the pressure home off. but for real of israel to agree to a possible narrative is actually higher than the chances of harris does this because to the expected harris is continuity from biting. biting had a series of really good ideas that included in the end of normalization, between saudi and israel in the past, for his own version, and also in writings. no one agree, he started talking, isaac harris to possibly also continue to take effect with is unpredictable device . so you might not. all right, we'll leave it there. john perry, thanks for speaking to us. it still has on alta 0 around the rest of the days. news coming up, including more flood damage in spain,
