7:00 am
7:01 am
car winning is everything stupid? >> denied it nine on cnn? >> this is gps, the global public square. welcome to all of you in the united states and around the world. i'm fareed zakaria coming to you live from new york today on the program. is the for tat between israel and iran over at least for now ronen bergman joins us from tel aviv and as many hoped for a ceasefire in gaza i talked to ryan crocker, who was ambassador in iraq in africa i understand as america for its battle against insurgents, he talks about what is likely to come next north korea has sent thousands of troops to train in russia i sat down with a former cia m analyst to discuss for the u.s. defense secretary called up very, very serious escalation
7:02 am
then recent polls have trump with a roughly 15 point advantage with men and harris with a similar advantage with women. stunning statistics i talked to the right of richard reeves about what is behind them but first, here's my take last week's cover of the economist was a special report on the american economy. they headlined the envy of the world yet the strongest economy in the world has not paid off for president biden, who had the second worst, third-year average approval rating of any modern president nor is it giving kamala harris a commanding lead in the polls? it is yet one more powerful signal that our politics are in the midst of a great upheaval as economic issues give wait a cultural ones the economic paradox is even more profound when you consider that the biden administration's economic policies have been specifically designed to benefit the working
7:03 am
class. made up largely of men without a college degree. they've disproportionately benefited this group and yet the democratic nominee is on track to receive the lowest share of this groups votes in decades with a deficit nine points worse than biden's in 2020, according to new york times polls at this consistent polling that shows that black and hispanic men moving away from the democratic party in historic numbers. what is going on in my latest book, age of revolutions, i argue that decades of revolutionary change, the massive expansion of globalization, the information revolution have up ended our politics. we're seeing a realignment in which the old categories of economic status and race or giving way to new categories like social status and cultural divides around gender we are likely at the beginning of this transformation of the political
7:04 am
landscape it used to be relatively easy to predict a person's voting pattern based on economics. the rich and upper middle-class voted right? the poor and working class voted left. race was another durable factor after the civil rights movement. white people disproportionately voted for republicans, people of color largely voted democratic. but today there seems to be a more prominent divide than race professionals appear far more likely to vote for harris and blue collar working class voters. because have become the new solid base of the republican party you see the great divide in america today is not economic class, but social class defined by college education the other strong predictors of a person's voting behavior other than college education or gender, or geography and religion the new party bases in america are an educated urban, secular, and
7:05 am
female left and a less educated rural religious and mail, right these new divisions or even overwhelming those deepest of divides, race and ethnicity more and more black and hispanic men are finding themselves comfortable with the republican party and it's especially pronounced with young people. a recent genforward poll had a quarter of young black men and 44% of young latino men voting for trump how cogen, tearing off his shirt at the rnc may hold more appeal then talk of unisex bathrooms and gender affirming treatments. on the other hand, kamala harris a biracial woman, may yet received more of the white vote then they, joe biden, an old white guy, professional white women see themselves represented by harris because social, class, and gender trump race democratic elites have been
7:06 am
slow to understand the shift. they have persisted in believing that the working classes somehow diluted or has been conned by the right in the voting against its own interests. that's why the party under biden has made a broad shift to the populist left on economic policy from tariffs to manufacturing subsidies and yet it has not wooed back the working class in fact polling has often shown that bernie sanders and his economic policies are much more a pillow with the educated elites in the democratic party, then with working class voters democratic elites do not want to believe that their problem is not that they move too far, right on economic policy. but rather that they move too far left on social and cultural issues. is he for them, economic policy is a matter of choice, practical decisions that can easily be changed. social issues are a matter of core rights and to be against them is to be a bad and
7:07 am
bigoted person even when democrats quietly shift policy as they did on immigration, they cannot bring themselves to articulate why the right has its own problems. it is in thrall to a personality cult of donald trump, who's extreme positions and rhetoric turned off many voters with the most economically vibrant parts of america trending left harris has far outrace trump in donations in recent months by more than three to one margins in september for the democrats, the problem is that non-college educated voters still make up the majority, around 65% of registered voters in 2020 and they may feel alienated by some of the ivy league liberalism. whether harris or trump wins this new cultural landscape will define american politics for decades to come go to cnn.com/fareed for link to buy my book, age of revolutions and
7:08 am
to read my washington post column this week. >> and let's get started explosions lit up iran skies as israel carried out its long anticipated retaliation for iran's ballistic missile attack earlier this month prime minister netanyahu said today that the attacks severely damaged iran's capacity and its ability to produce missiles that are used against israel for its part there and play down the strike saying they caused only limited damage for more i'm joined by ronen bergman, who is a staff writer for the new york times magazine. >> he's also the author of rise and kill first. the secret history of israel's targeted assassinations for running. first thing one notices is something i've written about earlier, which is the mismatch israel's air force was able to
7:09 am
essentially troye all iran's defenses, air defenses, right? leaving it very vulnerable for the possibility of another strike. how likely do you think that? follow-on strike is from israel yeah i've heard it takes for the day to get israel tried to signal to iran if the first after the first iranian missile attack in april and israel reaction back then was only what beside fight probe 15, 1,500 kilometers. so much, much, much further away than the distance of even the most advanced air defense of iran, russian s 300 and they directed at targeted the radar system and the command and control
7:10 am
caravan of that will basically blinded the israelis, were hoping that iran will get the message that israel has the capability to send these super missiles one of israel most secret weapons fraud far and exploding that. >> and we round will understand. >> but for whatever reason, the message maybe it was not received at iran went for further attacks on israel. >> and this time, israel decided to take all the s russia defense is basically leaving iran defenseless to hear ron blinds much of the aerial control. the military error control of southern iran also destroyed and iran not being able to defend itself and its some areas according to what we hear from american and israeli sources in certain areas, not even able to
7:11 am
understand what's happening is all scarred what happens next? >> day? they're waiting, i presume to see what iran will respond. the iranian rhetoric seems to be to try to deescalate, to try to make this smaller. so the hope is that a iran does something very minor or maybe not at all and then israel draws down is there a danger of escalation here? >> the israeli assessment for now is that it's more likely that iran will react. it's based on intelligence and also some announcements from the radius supreme national security council they said, what israel has done is weak, but we need to react if iran react, if iran retaliates, i think the next move with this big poll from israel will be much more severe would have to
7:12 am
take this time israel restrained itself following requests from the u.s. >> not to go against the energy facilities or the nuclear facilities before the u.s. >> elections. but we are just there maybe after the elections israel will feel much more a better freer to do attack these sites at what specific place in iran, israel destroyed same battery that was guarding the biggest industry park for energy, for gas and oil in the country, not touching it, but the radiance told my colleague, notice for us to safely we understand radians officials, we understand this was the head the neck, it's time. this could be on the military industrial complex the people, there must be people in, is in
7:13 am
the israeli elite military and governmental who think, look, we are succeeding beyond anyone's predict actions. >> look at what we've done to hezbollah, look at what we did, just sinwar, look at what we've been able to do to iran we need to take this moment and once and for all completely changed the balance of power and the deterrence system. there must be that feeling is there? >> yes some people have sources told us that they assured that even previous to that and he was playing with this idea that this is a historical epic moment and it's not just to teach around the less than according to what they think, not just facilitate the moment to take all the nucleus sides, but also to leave a regime change. the cia, the united states tried that in the 70s and 60s all over. it didn't work very well, but still i think that it an intelligence
7:14 am
services win big so successful they try, they tend to confuse between doing something very targeted and trying to inflate massive protests and there are people in israel who believed that maybe are trying to convince prime minister then it's doable that they can leave a regime change and if this is the case, there, it's not just about teaching a lesson, but we will be looking at something much longer than any kind of people, even if iran decides not to react this time ronen bergman, always a pleasure to hear from you. thank you, sir. next on gps, more on israel on those two wars and its immediate neighborhood. i'll ask a veteran diplomat why he thinks both the conflicts in gaza and lebanon could actually last for years you by fisher investments. fisher investments clearly

7:20 am
rand welcome, ambassador. i wanted to ask you about this sort of fundamental question that everyone has, which is when what is the objective of the israeli operation? when would it be possible for israel to say that it has defeated hamas? for starters? >> the israeli prime minister is set the bar very high, the total defeat of hamas. but that can be flexible notion. and i think secretary blinken gave the israeli some good advice to say that that they have accomplished their main mission, which was eliminating the senior leadership of hamas effectively eliminating its ability to project force into israel and this would be a great moment to declare an end to hostilities because otherwise this is going to grind on indefinitely. i don't see an end to it other than a declaration by israel that they
7:21 am
have achieved their objectives. and it is time to cease hostilities. and that is the only way to get the hostages back. by the way, because you don't think that hamas is ever going to, in effect surrender well, i don't we've seen these kinds of insurgencies before for read in in gaza and the west bank. >> i experienced it in iraq and afghanistan, certainly in lebanon there is not going to be a point at which hamas runs up the white flag and accepts an unconditional surrender. they will fight on in some form, some form of militancy is going to be an indefinite part of the landscape. i'm afraid what about the depth of sinwar? >> does it is it a game changer? >> well clearly it is very important i would liken it in some ways to the killing of osama bin laden by the united states in 2010 it is very important symbolically. i think
7:22 am
it's questionable how much operational control he had over the remnants of hamas at the time he was killed oh so the whatever resistance is left, i don't think is going to be dramatically affected by his passing when you look in the north ambassador, you were around during the israeli invasion of lebanon in 1982. >> what do you, what do you think israel is doing, right? and what what is, what, what is it doing wrong well, clearly the targeted actions against hezbollah's leadership were highly effective and he certainly shed no tears for their passing they have enormous amounts of blood on their hands, including american blood. >> i was a survivor of the embassy bombing of 1983. and of course just a few days ago, we mark the 41st anniversary of the marine barracks bombing however, israel would do very well to remember how hezbollah
7:23 am
was created in the first place, hezbollah did not exist until the israeli invasion of 1982 and the subsequent military occupation of south lebanon that gave birth to hezbollah and this current invasion and occupation for however long it lasts, is not likely to end it just on friday we saw i think ten israeli soldiers killed in south lebanon that is a much more potent organization it was born in conflict and an occupation. it certainly is not going to be ended by that same conflict and occupation so it sounds like you think a master that these operations, obviously they have had extraordinarily positive effects from israel's point of view, for israeli security, eliminating these leaders destroying the military hardware. >> but what do you think on the ground? they are kind of radicalizing another generation of milk lebanon's in the way that people sometimes struck
7:24 am
about what that is the danger and israel, through its occupation in those 18 years from 1982 to 2000, lost some 1,100 israeli troopers and left as a legacy one of the most potent insurgent groups that the world has ever seen the radicalization of the population in south lebanon occurred during that occupation and the current wave of offensive attacks, which have not exactly been precise in their nature, run the risk of doing exactly the same thing to a new generation of lebanese who have seen this movie before. it did not go well, not for israel, not for the united states. right now. >> whether it's gaza or south lebanon, i think there is an urgent need for a ceasefire cessation of hostilities and an effort toward a more stable, if not formal peace. >> at least some quiet insecurity for both sides of the border vesta crocker.
7:25 am
>> thank you for your insights born of deep experience. thank you, sir. >> thank you. >> next on gps, what in the world and north korean soldiers doing in russia? and what does that presence that tell us about vladimir putin and kim jong un i get some answers from the former top intelligence official on north korea. when we come back publicly what people are say and turns out i have enough money. >> i could just shut up back to is, i can carpet tonight at nine on 48% of americans don't get enough magnesium, which is vital for bone, nerve, and muscle health. >> i recommend qcells, magnesium glycine eight, it's formulated for high absorption and his gentle on his stomach kunal, the brand i trust power outages could be unpredictable,

7:30 am
troops have been spotted near kyiv's military operations in russia's kursk region what is going on junk back joins me now she is a former senior cia and state department official with deep expertise on north korea. she's the author of becoming kim jong un welcome. >> what startling news? >> 3,000 north korean troops in russia freed. >> i think this is yet another episode in the deepening and expanding of ties between russia and north korea. in a lot of ways, this has been a boon for north korea it lands it's a lustra legitimacy to the regime it had been a pariah state, but i think what we should see from this report is that these two allies are united in their anti-west, anti-us stance. and north korea seems to think that it's in their interests to actually help russia in its war against ukraine so for me, it seems like it does suggest that putin
7:31 am
is having some trouble. >> he needs more troops. he doesn't want to try and get more recruits out of russia, for whatever reason what is kim jong on getting out of this? >> that's right. that should be of great concern. kim has always wanted some advanced technologies from russia, russia in the past has been standoff fish on giving some of the more advanced technologies. but kim gets on the ground experienced military experience. he gets legitimacy in the eyes of the world, and he gets money. presumably he's getting some sort remuneration for these efforts. >> but what is it that north korea could one on the nuclear side from russia? russia does have for all have the largest nuclear arsenal in the world kim jong un has said that he wants to multiply his weapons capabilities and i think what north korea might want from russia is these advanced nuclear, maybe nuclear submarine technologies. >> but it's unclear or if
7:32 am
russia would be willing to show the family jewels. and i think russia would want to make sure that to calibrate what they're giving to the north koreans to make sure that they're not making a mom or creating a monster as they are looking to even win, to win this war against ukraine how do you think beijing is reacting to this, to this closer deepening of ties? because so far it used to be that if there was one country that had influence over, over north korea, it was china because china provides a lot of the food and a lot of the fuel, the energy that north korea uses. >> well, china has leveraged with both russia and north korea but it's at this point, it doesn't seem as if beijing is willing to do anything about this growing relationship. i think beijing officials and beijing are very concerned about this growing relationship. and china's main concern is stability on the korean peninsula. and at what point are we going to see russia and north that's korea crossing that threshold for chinese tolerance, that north korea gets more emboldened. and
7:33 am
as a result of what they're learning in the battlefield, their relationship with russia, and how that might impact stability on the korean peninsula. >> are we already seeing that? because i was struck by something very strange that's happened. the north koreans have shut down the ministry of re-unification are the department of reunification and kim jong un has destroyed this monument to reunification that his father built it used to be thought that that was one of the things restraining north korea, that they don't want to hold nuclear missiles entered south korea because they want a unifier eventually if this signaling we don't think we're ever going to reunify. we are going to be in a state of adversarial confrontation between north and south forever. is that how you reading this as a mini there's a slightly greater propensity to maybe going to war. >> i think so. north korea now calls south korea its principle enemy, and it's, it's hard to back away from that now
7:34 am
theoretically an ideologically that line about reunification, pete, in a peaceful way as one people had been a strand through north korean thinking and ideology for the past several decades but kim has jettisoned all of that to call south korea of its principal enemy and really amped up the hostile rhetoric against south korea. >> so i just want to be clear for all of us. so we have the russian war in ukraine. we have the middle eastern conflict going on. you have the growing tensions over taiwan. >> and now us policymakers have to worry about the possibility, the increased possibility of some possible conflict on the korean peninsula, right? north korea will take an opportunity where it can take any opportunity. and i think this this new cold war or whatever we want to call it in terms of how russia and china are cooperating and iran and north
7:35 am
korea are finding scenes in that geostrategic competition to find opportunity for themselves. so i think what this the implication is that what happens in asia matters in europe and what's happening in europe matters in asia. and it really highlights how important it is for all of our allies and partners to be working together and collaborating trump barak pleasure to have you on. thank you next on gps, the political gender gap is widening dramatically as women moved to the left and men to the right. >> what explains this trend? i'll explore my next guest when we come back saturday at nine on seat cough, cough, sneeze sneeze. >> juke needs plop plop fizz alka-seltzer plus cold and flu wind speed is what you need sounds back fast, alka-seltzer plus also try the new chewable fizzy, choose no water needed. dr. squash body wash ladies

>> everyone on their game got if you care too much about this job, it will kill you. wouldn't wow, be a good time to talk about career progression. >> the franchise, streaming exclusively on max recent polling has revealed a startling political landscape. donald trump has a roughly 15 point advantage with men while kamala harris has a similar advantage with women what's behind it richard reeves as president of the think tank, american institute for boys and men, and the author of several books, including off boys and men richard, your stuff that's terrific, but i want you to, if you would explain it, trying to explain to somebody who has no knowledge of this issue and simply was to say why is it that you see this massive gender divide among the political parties? >> what would your answer be? >> i'd, say there are two aspects to it. one is the cultural one, which is what's the idea of masculinity today and who's, who's offering a
7:41 am
model of masculinity that might appeal to me, or at least sending a signal that we see men. we've, we value the role of men. so i think there's a cultural element to it and you saw that it wasn't subtle, but at the rnc cogen tearing off his shirt humor and it also gets away from what a lot of men who feel is a bit of a stifling conversation about gender. on the other side of the aisle and so on the other side of the aisle, what we're seeing is an attempt now to talk more about men and masculinity, but up until this point, for understandable reasons, the real focus on the left has been about women and about the rights of women. and obviously reproductive health is a big issue now. and so as one democrat strategist put it, like where the woman since party but if you do that and you don't say enough about some of the issues that are facing boys and men, or if the only kind of masculinity you hear about on that side of the aisle is toxic masculinity. it sort of feels like there's a choice almost between a very
7:42 am
performative, almost a tongue in cheek counter-cultural masculinity on the right. and it kind of toxic very earnest mansplaining discussion of masculinity on the left. and i think that's left many men, especially many young men, up for grabs politically in a way that they weren't before your work suggests that this is all happening at a time when there is a real crisis of manhood. explain what that is yes. >> what's underneath? this is a series of social and economic changes that have made life more challenging for many men, especially men of color and especially men from working class backgrounds and often rural areas. so you've seen stagnant wages for men without college degrees. so men with four-year college degrees better off than their fathers. men without college degrees, worse off than their fathers? we've seen a huge rise in male suicide that's the most tragic symptom of the mental health crisis for men. the male suicide rate has risen by more than a third among men under
7:43 am
the age of 30 just since 2010. and now losing 40,000 men a year to suicide alone. and then in education, we see huge gaps opening up. actually the chances of a man enrolling in college straight from high school today and no higher than they were in 1984 and again, flatlines here for a lot of men and, you know, all this is about a post-industrial economies that values knowledge, work, and less work with hands and the kind of work that non-college educated men mr. do you said something on derek thompson spot cast that i thought was stunning. >> you said that in analyzing these suicides than men do, the words that come up most often in the suicide notes and the messages is a feeling of being worthless are useless, not being needed yeah. in the old world, the more sexist world of male breadwinners, male protectors and of an economy, as you said, that actually did require, in some ways more physical strength for where
7:44 am
that was valuable. >> for all of the problems with that world. and to be clear, they were very significant. they did offer a very clear script for men and they sent a very clear message to men of why they were needed. i my my father never questioned his economic role in our family. he was the breadwinner or in his community and so one of the byproducts of the incredibly positive rise that we've seen in women's economic position, as well as i would argue, the more negative consequences of post-industrial change has just been to leave many men feeling unneeded, unmoored uncertain of their role. >> now, you have a political piece where you tried to explain what the democrats couldn't do in terms of policy programs and all of which are very sensible. more apprenticeships recruit male teachers, support community colleges. the fascinating thing is the republicans don't need to do anything, right? there's something fascinating about the culturally, the edit tribal level they're saying we get you right. so they don't need to we have any progress. in fact they go on with the
7:45 am
democrats, would have to bend over backwards and do this ten-point program. you're suggesting that the irony is that the republicans are sort of winning on style point. >> but there's no substance there. and by that i simply mean that they are reaching out through different podcasts and different audiences. there there is a sort of, as i said, a cultural acceptance of masculinity being okay. but not much discussion of apprenticeships suicide prevention strategies, technical high school's the need for more male teachers. whereas on the democrat side, there actually quite a lot of policies that are quite pro male. one of my favorite examples is the infrastructure bill which created lots of jobs for working class men. but the democrats would never say that. and so there's this very weird moment we're in right now where you've got republicans talking a lot about the importance of men, but not doing very much. and democrats who potentially have a lot of policy ideas in their locker. but refusing to talk about them as pro male policies because i think it's because they're trapped in a zero sum frame. they genuinely think that to
7:46 am
come out and have a pro male policy agenda would undermine their claim to be a party on behalf of women. i think that's wrong, but i think that's where we are really fascinating. thank you. thank you. thank you next on gps, remember the brics, those large developing countries that were supposed to take over over the world order well, we'll tell you why they didn't. >> when we come back president will be slogan, wow, working on campaign posters yet, well, in my experience, the best campaign slogans are short and memorable like, well, that's definitely he memorable comes, comey bites and love back take a breath of fresh air with a stanley steamer air

leaders gathered in russia on the banks of the volga river for the 16th annual brics summit no longer just brazil, russia, india, china, and south africa. >> the bloc has expanded to include egypt, ethiopia, the uae, and iran. in fact, the group now represents nearly half the world's population the summit was perhaps most meaningful for a toast, president vladimir putin, who is eager to show the west that his country is not a global pariah he made the typical grand pronouncements that the grouping represented the rise of a multi-polar world order, and that the country is represented. there are essentially the drivers of global economic growth so is brics going to become an all powerful anti-western alliance it's pretty unlikely. the brics grouping has never delivered on its early promise

the term brick was coined by the then chief economist at goldman sachs, gmo neil in a paper published in november of 2001 it was primarily an economic concept. o'neill believed that for large countries in the developing world, brazil, russia, india, and china would drive global growth for decades to come by 2050, he predicted they would dominate the global economy with china's becoming the world's largest economy by 2041 the idea took off as the ft notes, dozens of investment firms created brick funds multinational corporations developed business strategies, business schools launched brick courses, a brick think tank was born in rio and for the first decade after 2001, those four countries lived up to the hype, mostly they clocked impressive growth, especially china, with growth rates often in the double-digits. india, china, and brazil were remarkably resilient against the shock of the 2008 financial crisis. and

then an idea born in investment bank became a geopolitical reality russia held the first brics summit in 2009, and the uk, catherine berg, russia the heads of state from those four original countries, agreed to reduce reliance on the u.s move away from the dollar and advocate for larger role for developing countries and global decision-making and 2010 south africa join the bloc, hence, brics. it seemed that goldman's predictions were coming true but then it fell apart. russia was hit by oil price volatility, high inflation, and stalled reforms. a commodities boom had driven brazil's economy in the world, but it never fully recovered from the subsequent bust. china is in one sense the star of the brics, the biggest economy in the block by far, but it's collapsed i'm seeing real estate sector indebted, state-owned enterprises and it's government's crackdown on its tech sector have very recently stalled growth. as a
7:54 am
geopolitical entity, brics hasn't accomplished much either it formed the new development bank in 2014 as an alternative to institutions like the world bank which are dominated by the west. but it has remained ineffectual as foreign policy notes, it planned to make eight to $10 worth of loans last year compared to the world bank's 73 billion. and it can learn to russia due to us sanctions part of the problem is that the bricks are random assortment of countries they don't have much by way of common interests russia and china are autocracies with hardened anti western stances india and brazil are large democracies and american allies. they prefer not to antagonize the west india and china our often openly hostile neighbors these countries don't even have economic common cause brazilian russia, energy exporters who do well as energy costs rise, india is an important that

favors low energy prices. and even jim o'neill, the former goldman economists to deliver us the term with so much optimism two decades ago admitted in an op-ed last week that the brics still don't matter criticizing the bloc for among other things, not committing to more open trade where these countries are drawn together, rights. keith johnson at foreign policy, is in a growing resentment of western hypocrisy and her germany. a feeling that has grown over expanded us sanctions. the dominance of the dollar and the war in the middle east shared resentment might make for lively dinner conversation, but it is not enough to forge a formidable block say what you will about the g7, that grouping works because its constituent countries, all advanced economies, all but japan, western powers have affirmative values and common all are committed to free markets and democracy. all are committed to the rule of law,
