h t a dr q a the the, this is the news our own allergies here. um for these that people live in the coming up in the next 60 minutes. at least a 123 thought it seems that killed in is really strikes since the guys a sci fi deal was announced on wednesday. is where i was 5 minutes surveys, as of right to resume the war on guys i just hours before the cease fire is due to go into effect. the ronnie and sony died. he was promised to me in thousands demonstrates in london, i had a cease fire in gaza on sunday. also dissolve the card 0, then yay!

in washington dc where donald trump is kicking off days of celebrations, to mark his return to the white house, the it's 21, gmc 11 pm in guys i way in just under 10 hours a cease fire is set to take effect. it would finally end to more than 15 months. so these are as more that scales nearly 47000 palestinians and aged more than a 110000. but since the agreement was announced, has been no let up in these really strikes on palestinians at least $123.00 have been killed since wednesday when the ceasefire deal was with each end of whatever you mean for some doubt by as for the alarm punch time anita, announcement of the seas firing, garza came to date a mother a father and there's 7 and 2 year old children children and is really strikes on

the elmo losey come up. and so that's why you know, when she has died with her husband and children, what is this choose that gives us hours before and begin? may god have mercy on her. as, as rose government ratified to you, it was bonding the time where they had taken shelter. since the cease fire was announced on wednesday, is really a talk tough kills, more than 100 palestinians. and the fighting finally stops any peace will only allow people here the space to try and begin to comprehend what they have lost, but not all of a troop in the us. and think about the performance. we want to go see the people who we lost contact with for the past 15 months. we don't know anything about them . if they are alive or data from, we want to make sure that everyone is safe and sound on a be the model. if it's my house burned down, so i can't return to it. i don't, but i have to get my affairs in order and find

a new home for my children. do you suppose to see a search of humanitarian 8 into gaza? 600 trucks a day, including 50 bringing fuel to power hospitals and bakeries. maintenance has an 8 brooks hub line, the roads up if you choose the border with the scale of mind nutrition and gaza, the u. n. c's humanitarian aid alone, or be enough. it's not going to be human and terry an age that is the magical response to the rapes suffering. and deprivation of families here in golf. we need the commercial sector. we need commercial supplies to come in, alongside humanitarian age. the ceasefire on its own is not going to leave the age of, of the, the overall suffering. the is tied to living conditions of some of these here. this is far will also allow rescuers to begin clearing rebel and recover some of the thousands of bodies buried in the rooms. so much of causes,

homes and infrastructure have been destroyed. the u. n. c's, it's set back the progress of causal by 70 kate. how does the news are in doing one more night of har before the ceasefire takes effect? many here in central there has been a have told us they still cannot sleep because of the sound of the drones. and the fear this comes along with them. they hope this will soon stop and they will be allowed to dream of peace and safety. and the very nice of quiet and the odyssey the cause of all this time with just hours left until the si, fi goes into effect in gaza. israel's foreign minister benjamin if now is already warning, it could be temporary, he said israel has the right to return to fighting if the 2nd phase proves pointless. as you all said, the us administrations of both joe biden and donald trump support fat, right? so i'm going to see top the government to see by the president bond and,

and president found have shown the full support to at war and as route would find that the stick and sides of the agreement could not be implemented. they said that they could understand this. trump said he would remove on obstacles so as well could have fold wave instead it needs. and if this rattle needs to resume the war again as well, could do that, and we will do it stronger than ever. so i'll just bear a stephanie decorating a mine with more on what next. now have to say she's reporting from a jordan in capital because israel has find all just the air from operating there and in the occupied respect. this is the 1st time that we've heard from these ready prime minister benjamin netanyahu. since the announcement of the ceasefire deity, very much presented it as israel's victory. as his victory dot, israel managed to get him off to capitulate to agree to reduce more than double the amount of hostages alive. in this 1st phase, he said that his ro retained the rights to return to work. the american president's

both of them, the incoming and outgoing, were on board with that basically very much a speech of victory. that israel had changed the face of the middle east that it was going to achieve its gold and bringing home all the captives that benjamin netanyahu. and even he referred to his wife sanara, were constantly thinking of the captives. i wrote at greeley, when this is a man who has been acute across the board, and israel of not caring about the captives only carry about his own political survival, which is why he has prolonged this war. even when there were deals on the table in the past, why? because the right wing ministers in his government or against it, threatened to end his political career. you see that it's more been good. we are now announcing that he will step down from the government on sunday. it will not bring down the government for now, but these are the pressure is, which is why many people are questioning whether this cease fire will go beyond the 2nd phase. but at the moment, the 1st phase is happening sunday 8 3rd to local time. it will start in garza 3 is

where the captives will be released. and around $95.00 ballasting and political prisoners, stephanie decker, i'll g 0. i'm not to protest as intel of even keeping up the pressure on 5 minutes . and it's you know, as a ceasefire news, they're demanding the government secure. the release of, oh is really captives in gaza. they're also calling for the 5 minutes a to resign from these have a captive and guys have like major protests since the war began. joining is not on algae 0 is only goldberg who's in is really political commentator, his life from tennessee or a good to have you again on alger 0. what are we to make? first of all, i miss you. i was speech tonight. who do you think it was intended for? it was intended for the right wing folders and the right thing administered. so that's correct and resignation are as announced a resignation. but it was also meant to demonstrate how within the hour is charged

with making a difficult decision. decision deciding to deal this not one that is making slightly how he is thinking about every aspect of the situation. this is the persona he wants to build up before and upcoming his early election. he wants to be the other states that wants to be the leader who's capable of fighting a 15 month floor, but also to measuring the deal that tends to where he wants to be seen as the whole package. right. interesting. i mean, if, if sniffing, yeah, whole loses been give there, and smelters just bodies of threatened to quits. if this deal goes ahead, do you think the moderate opposition in israel can join the coronation and prevent new elections? opposition meter? yeah. le pete has offered to make a deal. we've met you now in support of the sci fi. i could that help him? he thinks, of course, i mean nothing now knows that the opposition is trapped. the opposition cannot prevent, cannot deny him parliamentary backing, but he needs,

even if his government ends up being a minority government, the opposition cannot be seen as opposing the deal of the oppositions. price may be calling an election, but i wouldn't even necessarily assume that would be the case. their parties in the so called up position, who would be very quick to join the government of national unity of such a government as proposed. he um, you know, he has the protestors on one side we seen huge numbers again today on the street. you've got the far right also pushing him on the other side. how. how do you think is handling this moment, how, how perilous is his political future? right now if you were to, to make a prediction. oh, i actually think his political future is quite rosy, simply comparison to what it's been over the past few years. forever the both sides of the protest. i was here calling for a deal. and the ones who are protesting against the deal are urging him to do the right thing. he is their prime minister. ready not doubting his authority,

they're not suggesting there should be an alternative around calling for him to step down. they are in their minds working with exerting pressure that will make him do the right thing. which means that if there's a default option that's in the out is prime minister, that's a pretty good position to occupy, especially a few managers. if this deal is actually going to go through, which i think it will. because in 6 weeks that's in a turn of the, the administer. ready is for the a religious zionism parties mostly just party, they'll be faced with a dilemma i've stay resign. i think they. ready will be a shift in public opinion, a shift for the dealership, for the end of the war, most as early as month toward the end, right? because of the genocide, not because of the repercussions just because the war is adversely affecting our lives. it is very individual level, but is there a possibility that he is relevant go back to war after after you know, the next 6 weeks and, and the 2nd phase because that's what next,

dallas threatened tonight saying he has the backing of the americans to do this. but the now does what he has always done, which is played both ends against the middle. he has an actively direct me to go back to work. and i get a sense that uh, president trump, who will take office on monday is not a big fan of wars. and certainly not a big fan of wars to which the united states has committed either in arms or for an age or. busy or a, you know, haven't for send troops. i think the president trump wants to make deals. and the fact that he has given that to the out i, i do see the name of guarantee. but the secretary said is all could have weapons. that certainly doesn't mean the president trump well, okay. busy forever war, the certification of religious ministers are imagining, and again, this is classic method. now he promises everything to everyone and ultimately finds a way to make it work. ready is on personal benefit at the moment. his own personal benefit is tied to the end of the war. he doesn't need,

he doesn't want to be seen seen as too eager to bring about the end of the war. but it's the end of the war that promises in a fighting chance and an upcoming user. i mean, that's always good to get your thoughts on to view that for me is around only goldberg and he's ready, political commentator joining us at from tennessee. well, let's get the view now of our senior political analyst, my one of the cheryl who joins us here from the ha moran. i don't know if you were able to hear us some of what am i is really guess how to say that, but only the political commentator, the said he didn't believe that next now is actively threatening to return to war in the 2nd phase of the ceasefire. deal, do you agree with that after what we heard today from to look at. i think nathaniel is actively threatening to go to the 2nd a to war after the 2nd or 3rd phase. but that doesn't mean what audi was saying is wrong. i think quarters are not as, as are quite solid. but there's a discrepancy here it's,

it's about the implication of what that then the i was saying. it's not that by taking them literally. mm. yes, nothing you know isn't but understanding today. then he done what he was say, several weeks or months after october 7, when his popularity plummeted. a passing past of the past year, he proved himself to be a war hero. a warranty that for many israelis, the more he killed palestinians with the money destroyed though, am asking for the structure. the more he became. and he knew that the question now is busy today in a position to when to re one collections. i don't think so. and that's why i think he started maneuvering because i think he still thinks there's a lot of room for him to re gain popularity. because the objectives was the water as he laid them out after october 7, 23 have not been feels to have much not destroyed even though it's degraded. the hostages were not released through the act toward about the through the active

diplomacy and, and, and, and is, or could not technically plans guys out or anything. and despite the genocide, so really only, oh, today i is there, it is much better off. how much is which worse off, but the water objections have not been achieved, and that's why he's saying today. if i cannot achieve the objective diplomacy. mm hm. meaning, with the help of the united states, sort of how much never sees the light in gaza again. then i'm going to do it for right, and speaking of the americans, my one he's, he said tonight that he had the backing of both from van biden to return to war. if you know the 1st phase didn't prove successful in his words what, what, what, what is a sense of the us administration right now? the incoming one, at least the trump didn't want the boy to continue. would he really back this year on this if he wanted to return to conflict?

okay, so this is like, gosh, you know, the $64000000000.00 question price uh, at least for as of tomorrow we can forget about by then. mm hm. and as far as many of us its good directions uh because of the general side that he was basically integrated. but now we have trump, and really he assembled the team of fordham policy, including his invest with the united nations invested with is read his method east and boy is nice to critize visor is to groups that all of them are not just pro is are, are they are pro nothing, you know, all of them. some of that might actually great admirers of nothing, you know, believe it or not. so i think the most part of this theme and what is, uh, you know, uh tangible. we know that what he's where he's had to do something best of that is to is right. this crazy questions on this. i mean, he wants to go all the way he wants to ask for an extension of the west bank comes on. so why would he a point to him if he's not thinking along those lines, that's

a question to be asked maybe later on down the road. but the thing i want to several things from, from 1st of all, he wants to help him with his case with the international criminal court that nothing. now a drunk can do a lot of a whole bunch of things over the lens of crime. the senator is trying to pass a law where to buy countries who wouldn't take any measures a guess that the whole would be sanctioned by the united states, for example. but drunk can put more pressure at the ice, you see. and on the countries like european countries like to he once so dearly that to join in the the, you know, they, you, we by the and others are part of the problem. a court didn't as normalization was, are, and 3, he wants to next big part of the west bank and he wants to come to the dresser because he sits in east jerusalem and dakota. nice. these are pretty important things for nothing else. we will see from, for deliver on one to or all of them, i think threatening to return to war helps him in terms of putting pressure on

washington on, on trump as well as there are a number of adam parties like egypt and others to help him with the idea that if you get to the, don't have asked for me. if you also narrow the news that on time us, then i wouldn't have to go to war. so the federal or is not just to go back to war . it's also to get a lot of things out of washington. egypt got out on an on how those check through the use of correct of war. thank you very much. my one always get to get your analysis. my on the shower, i senior political and the analyst lives there in still have the while for more on how donald trump's presidency is going to shape the middle east and the future of

a cease fire and gas. and that takes effect seeing the coming hours less crossover too. i'll just hear a serial viney and the team in washington dc sale yes, all is great to be with you it. what is a pivotal moment, pivotal moment here in washington dc. we're in the middle of a political transition. donald trump is said to take the oath of office and become the 47th president of the united states. that's going to happen right behind us in less than 48 hours and pivotal moment. also, as you've been discussing, as l 0 has been reporting in the middle east, where a ceasefire tomorrow is set to take effect. and those 2 things are connected. so we want to bring our panel into this and see how the us is going to affect the future of the middle east. james davis is with us james base houses. you're a senior political editor, and james davis. our view is, remember because you are with us, your republican strategist and republican commentator as well as you as well. remember you from your he roy, what was it? 1516. our stretched going to i. but your standing the whole time,

at least i got to take a seat. look, it's great to have you back on that with us. um, what do you think donald trump is aiming for in, in this moment in the middle east, where so much as influx? what exactly, what i said on election night, this is the president president elect, who wants peace? 840 campaigned on. he told voters, hey, i'm going to end the war and gaza. i'm going to in the war and ukraine, like we gotta stop with all of these out of control. never ending wars. and i'm going to bring peace back to, to, to the world, to the quote. and you do that through long, strong leadership. and you know, to his credit and also to buy these credit because there are many ways in which the, by the administration has tried to undermine the trump administration coming into office. but in this area, they worked collaboratively but, and they making a mistake. netanyahu heard loud and clear when donald trump said, i want this to end and get the hostages back. if you don't,

there is going to be trouble. and yeah, i know all of a sudden you see him come in as a closer and peace starts to reshape. hopefully we can continue on that progress james base. what do we know to be donald trump's thinking and policy on the middle east and on israel and god. so we've already seen him up for a whole term in office. we had the one to him and he was very, very supportive of his route. he did things the less and, you know, who really wanted, he recognized the of these ready to control it, to go live heights. he moved the embassy, the u. s. embassy to jerusalem. most of western embassies have had a condition that jerusalem is it on, is the issue, the must be settled down the line. they kept their embassies and telling me it produced a cushion apply towards the sunny mode, produced it for him, which was a plan that was the way, but it was the most favorable plans, his rays of all the peace plans that have been throwing up over the years it was

not going to give the palestinians a contiguous state. it was gonna give him the sort of swiss cheese of a state with a capital in the village called aberdeen on the edge of jerusalem. and of course the abraham because he started as those deals with arab countries to try and get them to recognize israel some of them days. and he was hoping to push that even further. now it is worth saying, but despite all of that, towards the end of that time, there was some difficulties and the relationship between prime minister netanyahu and uh, president trump. and i think that have been some difficulties since that he put it . kelly did not like what happened 4 years ago and present bite and was an old the right to the fact that there was congratulations that came from miss and yahoo to buy. because of course, trump didn't believe any of that was legitimate, or at least that's what he said quick no, by the way, by the y fi that we're seeing on the bottom right corner of our screen. this is the live shot of palm beach, florida where were expecting donald trump and his family to be boarding that plan

that you see there. so not quite air force when we were you and i were discussing this before the program, right? so this plane a couple days from now, the very same plan could be referred to as air force. one right now, not air force flight, but it's the same place it's, it's the same government, sleet of planes that they use. any plane us presence on is at full swan, he's the president select. it's not that force one. if he was, he won't be, he'll be, he'll be hit capitol hill on monday. but it's about when he swore that and if he was on the plane is that took place on the plane that the designation would show. yeah, there with that. yeah. so there is a phrase james in washington, the personnel is policy. right. meaning that the people you pick are going to profoundly shape what you end up doing. what can you tell us about the team coming in? whether it is state department, whether it's the middle east team, whether it's the pentagon and how that might shape what we're going to see in the middle east. yeah, well, i've worked with the secretary of defense, nominated p takes that. and um, you know, he's, he's a brilliant guy,

is very passionate about protecting and serving the war fighters. he himself was military. prior, he was when i worked in the pentagon under secretary rumsfeld, he was in cool doing counter insurgency school. so he knows what it's like, he knows the consequence of war. and i think that makes it all the more important to, to really be vicious when you put your troops in harm's way. and i believe fully that he's going to carry out what donald trump wants, in this particular incense and, you know, negotiate and try to drop piece. and you do that by, by really showing leadership by stepping up there's been a little bit of a vacuum in washington and around the globe because we haven't stepped up and been very forceful. our policy hasn't been clear for the world. and, you know, been chaos of pounds also. thank you. you see secretary rubio? i mean he's got great skills as a diplomat on capitol hill. i mean,

he was even getting praise from the democratic colleagues. i'm on the hill that hearing his hearings. you'll see that abroad in trying to negotiate piece as well. seems it anything anything you want to say or add about the team is coming in. we have steve woodcock who's already be deep into the negotiation of the, the gaza and hostage release. deal is fascinating that they've always said to me in the past, ever since i've covered us politics, which is for faulty. many is that there was only one administration, but on this case the 2 administrations were together overlapped and it was i think, i think i would definitely agree with james. it was the presence of president trump, the change things because this deal has been the since may present bite and said there was this deal on the table. and he said the deal is he said the recent days, the deal is probably the same deal. but he was not prepared to push to get this deal over the line, because ultimately the us president has the leverage. they supply the money they

supply the weapons for israel's will. on garza, he could have done things. i suspect spite suspicion is that he was worried about the political effects of any punishments of israel ahead of november elections and then quite possibly off to the november elections. he didn't really have any leverage anymore because he was a lame duck. james, we heard from your both call james, we um, a lot of great pathways uh we heard from james bay the 2nd ago about trumps is real guys a legacy. right. and his 1st term as one of the things that came out of that is the palestinian statehood is not a priority for donald trump. and we saw that when he put a deal on the table for his real and the palestinians, it was not favorable to the palace states. i mean, that hasn't aged well as it big if you do not. but if you do not deal with palestinian statehood, you don't get great results. is that something that donald trump needs to change?

well, i don't know if you do it. i don't know if i would agree with that. okay, um, i mean, certainly donald trump is an ally of israel. the us is an allied israel and i expect that, you know, netanyahu will have some favorable terms there. but at the end of the day, donald trump is in negotiator. and so he's going to bring to bear whatever he'll be . that's my point. it didn't work for the term. what did you like to deal with? didn't work. i would say it didn't work. it didn't work until he wasn't president anymore. we didn't see conflict until a button was president, and then i think people get in mobile, don't let me pick you up on that. how to do. how did his proposed deal work during the 1st term? well, i just think that if you look back, we didn't have the complex that we have now, and that's really what, what he cares about. the cares is there going to be conflict? and how do i step in to solve that? and so, if it ratchets up and you know, there's, there's some potential complex, i expect the, the con, towards the bill may change, because at the end of it, he just wants peace. he just wants to see peace. and under strong leadership,

you can see that. but you're right, i think under a long period of time, you know, administration has change, focus changes, and then ultimately, you know, involving people step up. and we'll say complex again. can i just add something that a real just once the piece is was i think there's no one who doesn't know that total . trump has a big ego as well as relating to the fact that he keeps this not just one's cheap. so he wants to win the nobel peace prize rather than the fact that can you know what he has been nominated by the way he's been. i mean, you, this is been nominated by 3rd parties, at least the ones that i know of maybe multiple times for another piece. price, windows. alright, james davis, james base. thank you so much. now we're gonna come back a little later to you foley a little later in your show, where we'll be discussing more domestic politics. and we'll be taking a look at what trump 2nd term will mean for climate action, both in the united states and beyond. that's

a little later in the alpha 0 news hour, but for now that's it for me in the team here at the rooftop studio in washington dc back to following several. thank you so much. we look forward to hearing more and your discussions a bit later in this news hour. in the meantime, let's head to ukraine, which says at least 3 people have been killed in a russian attack on central keith. the man says several cars caught fire and a metro station was damaged during the hallway for some of the ukrainian capital. the moment of impact and the immediate aftermath of the russian missile strike of central p. a man is bent to death behind the wheel of his band, and the person dies outside mcdonald's, possibly waiting for the fast food restaurant to open at 6 am. on folds by daylight, these are the 360 degree scene of destruction. at the, at the center a crate said to be with me, so go ahead, detonated. it's not the 1st time this has happened to you. it is, in fact,

the 5th striking this immediate area since the war began. and russia claims this time to have struck a weapons production facilitate nearby, causing a lot of i was here which time the 1st time and we saw hit this place was march 16, near the style of the parts of the building collapsed since then they hit test frequently with, let's say, unusual, ms. silas. it's very unsettling when it says he takes us into his apostles across the street. the blow now windows already covered. yes. again with plastic seating. he thinks he knows why the russians are doing the court. they are intimidating us with these attacks to end the war on the paper being tends to influence the population. so the people pressure of the government, our leadership elements and the control while the toll is dreadful enough bystanders. the thankful around more that it is extraordinary looking at the damage

here that the casualty count hasn't been hired. it almost certainly would've been have this happened at 6 am on a weekday morning. the clean up operation is swift and discipline. not the 1st time the, the with the now is least neighborhood will return to life is normal. the what counts for normal to people here would be to others. i'm think of, i don't know how l g 0. keith still ahead on algae 0. south korea's in beach president and spend another night in jail after a time, portables, rec centers, detention and is going to be a long way back to the west indies and their tests match against my son. that's coming up in the.
