us today and the prime minister went on television to ask forgiveness from the families for not being able to save the 6 whose bodies were recovered. the weekend put benjamin netanyahu double down on his determination to destroy us. i'm feel gail in berlin. and this is the day the we are here to protest against the government. i'm, i'm angry, i'm serious here and it just frustration because i don't care about the hostages. the we can see that home anymore and to hold for the change on the

vehicle. also on the day of fall right. policy windsor states election hearing jeremy sending shock waves across the country. political system, leading germans wondering whether it should be allowed into government and such methods. you just have to come together in the interest of democracy fest with no. yeah, they will crotty like this terrible. absolutely terrible message was that, so i don't know what will become of germany. welcome to the day, a short general strike of mass protests in israel have laid bad divisions of these right. the government strategy on guessing the hostages held by a massive gaza released thousands of workers walked off the jobs today, demanding the government to prime minister benjamin netanyahu reach agreement with

him. ask to allow the hostages to go how so i left the strides which was called a short notice was ignored in some address. the families of many of the hostages blamed the prime minister for the delay in progress and cease 5 talks with a mouse. and they say he's doing this for his own political survival. joining the strike demonstrates his blocked main roads and flights that kind of a bed go to an an forth with the light. a labor court ordered an end to the strike, declaring it to be politically motivated. previously, protest interrupted across these route, when troops retrieve the body of 6 hostages from a tunnel in casa, and he's supposed to broadcast remarks, since those bodies were recovered. benjamin netanyahu said he would not give it to pressure to agree a deal. i think double down on his strategy in gaza insisting that israel must retain control over the philadelphia, colorado. that's a stretch of land between gaza and they bring egypt. i'm ok,

let me hold on because they'll make me hold the families and i repeat it tonight to a new location. so if i ask for your forgiveness, so it's a not bringing them back a live and we would close, but we didn't succeed. fill her shaw, so the axis of evil needs to philadelphia car adult at apple have in for that reason we must control the feel adult cordele. how much to cease for that reason that we not be the adult. and for that reason, i insist that we'd be that or will, how does mister netanyahu speech more as interest? and i've paid that last respects to hush. goldberg pole. in one of the 6 hostages, whose bodies were recovered from gaza over the weekend is ready. ministry says he and the 5 others were shot dead by him. us killing spa, the cool for today's general strike and mass protest. mass captured more than

$250.00 people during the after the 7 tenant attacks. nearly a 100, a still big house. well yeah, i don't know if it's an expert and nobody's ready politics and professor of political science at michigan state university in the united states. she joins us from the state capital, a lansing a welcome to data being professor. let's start with today's speech from benjamin netanyahu. we had to click that i am asking for forgiveness that before going on to be effectively double down on his position. there's no changing his mind this, you know, i tragically not, i think for both from us leaders and war and for an act and you know, they put their own political survival and, and so forth above the welfare of the palestinians and israelis. and of course, one of the hostages were killed by her mice and taking them hostage 11 months ago.

it's certainly the case, but espanol has never put, get into hostages home and get into a ceasefire as the 1st priority. and he hasn't done so for the last 11 months. i don't think it is a very sincere apology in many as early as don't see it as such. about 70 percent of israelis throughout the many months have wanted him to immediately resign and want him to have new elections even before this they held him. of course the mass is responsible for the massacres and the taking hostages. that took place on october 7th, but that's in the our was held responsible for not doing enough to be able to deter and prevent that by distracting the country through trying to weaken its supreme court, which produced a mass demonstrations for many months uh before october 7th, uh and since then, um you know about, uh, july survey industry,

elizabeth is on democracy institute indicates the majority of this rarely 56 percent. would want a deal to at least all the hostages and end the war. and about almost 30 percent would want it for a part part of the hostages for a ceasefire, and only 40 percent didn't know. so for a long time now, the majority of israelis and many surveys uh, want to, you know, put as a 1st priority, getting the hostages home and getting to a deal. of course that would also and the suffering of nice house the indians with down. yeah. so i think he just wants to stay out of jail since he's been incriminated in stay in power and some of his right wing coalition, extreme right members of the coalition wants to where to continue. and okay, i don't want to withdraw from dentistry. obviously represents this of these, right, the government to take a somewhat different lied to the but you're taking that,

but the point is made we'll, we'll move on. i'm going to play you another clip from mister netanyahu is the earliest page laying out that when he said this more would end. it would define the end of the war in gaza. in guns on when come us no longer rules guys. we throw them out. i would define the end of the war in world war 2. when the nazis no longer ruled german. to do that, you need to have a military victory. and you have to have also the political victory to destroy the governance. so i don't know where is the, is riley public on the way that missed the nation. yahoo! as prosecution, this war of course, it was the um, many israelis, and many people around the world could understand that when there's organization like a mazda that officially wants to destroy the country and that you know,

massacre and hundreds of civilians and october 7th and says they want to have any marked over sevens that you wouldn't, that you would want to not have from us rule the territory next to you. and of course, you know, hopefully they'll be a passive save along side is all the features. there's the certainly understandable . but certainly, as you know, has some experience in many countries as well since world war 2. and this analogy that you know, the end, this is a, you know, how stands, you know, strive for a nation. and self determination is really as have that you will be able to successfully just get rid of y o a mosse and so forth. and therefore just just listen to that. yeah, just it just, all the stuff, if you will answer that seemed to you your seem to be going to, i didn't quite get an answer to my question. i'm with these republican the way this war is being a prosecution by this government. you seem to be hitting things that they all behind the prime minister. no, and no,

i'm sorry if there was any misunderstanding. i think they very much want to prioritize. and for many months, um, getting to a ceasefire and getting to the hostages back as opposed to complete victory. and that's not only where there's really public has been that's been met. that is where many in the defense establishment have been for many, for also in the summer, in terms of china pushing it to now to get to a deal. and even though he has understandable concerns about the border between guys and agents where they are so many channels when they've been re armed and that, that weapons in the past, the military establishment itself is saying that, you know, in the 1st stage like israel can go back if, if it were going to be used in any way, but also more importantly that there could be some kind of international force or regional force including a different countries that is all right. agree on that could be at the border. um,

so again, it's not that it's not an under, it's not it's an understandable concern, but most of this really public has been solidly behind prior ties. it has the number one issue getting to a hosted steel and to thereby thereby a ceasefire. and now we have about 600000 as relays, demonstrating that would be the equivalent to i think, 6000000 germans and over 50000000 or 20000000 americans demonstrating that they want to prioritize as the number one issue and bringing the hostages home. and therefore at least having a ceasefire end of the war. and so he's not in line with the alternative, this really public and talking about the philadelphia college that, that as the prime minister did when it's right we, we can see now why both sides see about as being so important. whether your, your smuggling, trying to smuggle people or explosives that ends baterri street or in the tried to a secure about particular border. when is royal, sees control of the philadelphia,

colorado from egypt, egypt a wound then that it was ready to respond. and why didn't it as wide into egypt respond? i mean i think that it's um, it too is trying to get to and facilitate immediate and negotiate a deal between as well on from us. and so that's them. i think it's priority. i also think that gyptian government, of course, has itself had designated from us a terrace organization that it has done so several times before because they see it as affiliated with the muslim brotherhood. that's a threat to their own government. so they certainly have mixed feelings about how modest but as their public and of course we all care deeply about the depth and suffering and displacement in gaza. so i think that they're concerned about that as well. and therefore, you know,

want to be able to negotiate something by which it wouldn't be as role at the border and they couldn't get a deal. and so to some extent they've pushed for that. and you know, they're probably people on the ground then getting bribes. you know, and so forth at the border for the things that the back and forth through it just have a final what, where israel slash netanyahu is internationally because mr. daniel, who does the more ice laser, the nasa the us present, joe biden was asked today whether these are the prime minister was doing enough to achieve a deal full of the hostages. a simple unambiguous answer was no. so is that the nonchalance of a one term president with nothing to lose or has the wife has had it with benjamin netanyahu? i mean, i think they have um, they're extremely frustrated. i think for good reason that he's not prioritizing

a deal. i think other administrations have been frustrated with missing, you know, as well and previous american and ministrations. and he very much, i think is prioritizing, staying in power with his own pollution partners. and the extreme is parties in his coalition. i don't want actually to get a deal um okay, and are not prior to using the hostages. and so i can understand why the american ministration is frustrated with them as our, as i say, so many israelis of 70 percent at different times wanting to him to resign immediately as the joining us until history about professor professor. yeah, i'll run off from michigan state university. thank you. the political leaders here in germany awaiting their options after the fall, right alternative for germany party to the 1st place in the states the election on sunday. they asked the one the voters in the eastern states of arrange you despite

being classified as extreme is by general thoughts as they, if they went almost a 3rd. if the ranges of votes and came a close 2nd in the neighboring states of saxony. but his chances of governing unsaid as all other parties have refused to work in coalition with german chancellor electronics whose social democrats fed fully in both folks old pauses to form coalitions without bite wing extremists the far right if the may have emerged as the biggest. when a into region of electrons but will likely end up in opposition. all main screen policies have pledge to uphold a firewall against entering a coalition with the n d migration potty and both the range here and sex any. but although it's the majority didn't cost a boat for the a if the and don't want to see if given some site it has a mandate to form a coalition, columbus and certain methods. you just have to come together in the interest of

democracy. now. yeah, they will crotty know why the, i'm tired of a lot in the share of votes is simply going to be model don't feel so organ both at some point. do you have to ensure that people see the choices being reflected while in fulfill clifton. think up on saturday, i think they should be given a chance to work together with everyone. when only then can you say whether they're up to it or not, by denying them that chance by claiming to be too good. you actually end up elevating them and you shouldn't do that too much. but there is concern about the rise of the file, right? why does t as the fact that the f d has done so well, especially in rural areas, it's just concerning. so is that agent? yeah, as long as this, i think it's basically right not to work with them. but it's hard to see a government being formed at all. then you can come to us as like this terrible.

absolutely terrible message with us. so i don't know what will become of germany. and while the a, if the say they have the right to govern in state level coalitions, the parties running the national government on the pressure, they badly manage to scrape 10 percent of the vote combined with just to you to go before federal elections. these results are likely to increase the tensions filled by off shots has already divided coalition. fabulous fossa is where the battle has been stiff. don't, and it's one of germany's leading experts on your pants and international politics . welcome to the w. please stop by explaining to our international audience why based to state elections being viewed with such hara by the leaders of germany, national governing pauses. this is a historical 1st and 1st of all, germany. yeah. that a far ride carter. you have scored a so well that it came in 1st and regional elections gets uh, roughly

a 3rd of the seats. and in the 2nd region, it comes in 2nd and then also sits upon demand with, with a very big complimentary group. why is this important? first of all, because it indicates a shift in the german coffee system, that's how they both have gone through his earlier germany always seemed to be a country where the fall rise can maybe rise to a 13 or 15 percent but, but not to the boats. and here we are, this has happened in the into regions. and the question now is, does this have implications for the federal elections, which will only happen in one year time? okay, we'll come to that. let's to 1st of all though about the rise of the sd in germany and then we will talk about the, the rise of, of, of right wing populism across europe. but here in germany, why us so many germans looking to the asked the to say,

guess them because this, these results didn't come out of nowhere. i did a. so yes, that's true. um i have to, you has built its base over years and opinion all data for eastern german regions had indicated for awhile, but they can come out very strongly. and indeed that there was a risk that they would come for us. and they did one of the regions. now, what did they do? first of all, that they offered a party platform which speaks to the fee is of many people in eastern germany picking up socio economic concerns. picking up a certain criticism of the federal government screen transition policy that many germans feel that puts them on the pressure but doesn't really support them. and i have to actually denies the needs to and to manage a very engaged policy to private drive and change. and then um

i have to also, and this is not a policy issue by the question of presence. and the anchorage within society has built a social structure, this in municipalities and eastern germany that, that really kind of crowded all that maybe doesn't have a sports club, didn't have a use center. and they how to set up structures. they showed big presence. and so people felt very close to us, they are, you know, they, they understand what bothers us and they are part of our, of our community. and so we, we sold those very strong results uh yesterday. but this doesn't mean that this will translate automatically to assume on the result on the federal level because of structural differences between eastern germany. i'm western germany really remains and also questions of political culture. but jasmine, mainstream parties have

a deep anchorage and western germany didn't have the historical break that they had an eastern germany where for several decades that there was a socialist regime uh, was no free democracy, right. and so the difference is which, which play out. okay, i mean we've, we've, we've seen the right wing popular sponsors making significant in roads into mainstream public 6 across your it's and the funds, the case weight and feeling balance the list seems endless. and migration is a common factor there. and here in germany, but what you're talking about there is not just migration, but the fact that these, these, these right wing part is easy and searching patches seem to root themselves in communities. yes, absolutely. my migration, of course is an important issue as well. and also only for i do,

but also for the fall as part of the b s. w, which, which came out of nothing and jumped to 16 percent. and then also uh, the mainstream pod is up really hot with the positions on immigration, on a sunday home on normal legal immigrants and so on. and interestingly, the fact that the european union's migration policy really got tougher over the past month and also germany and the government coalition at this point has more restrictive positions on a on immigration did not change much to the appeal of the fall rights position on integration in regions where the actual number of immigrants is not particular high is definitely not higher than in western germany . ok, now that you posted them on extra that you believe that this, this far i've search in this eastern corner of germany could also impact gym and foreign policy is i think you were,

you were sort of painting that when you talked about the, the, you and jeremy toughening that stance, but i'm guessing that who's there's also more than just migration that you're talking about. yes, that is true. so what we have seen and the 2 eastern german regions yesterday is that 2 parties scores fairly well. that criticize the federal government's support for ukraine and take a much stuff, dis, dogs on russia, and actually argue that rather than delivering weapons to ukraine, the country which really needs to defend itself into a completely illegal aggression at invasion. and rather than supporting ukraine, the german government will promote peace, meaning a short push your trade will once negotiations with russia. and interestingly, both of the fall last at the far,

i try to position themselves as the parties that will bring peace back to our neighborhood. and of course, completely ignoring the fact of their rhetoric that is russians aggression on ukraine. and also not mentioning, clearly that in russia is a completely unreliable negotiation palm at this point. so they seem to have an easy fix, don't do the weapons, peace will come back. and this is of course attractive to some people who are after the years of support for, for ukraine. feel a certain fatigue in particular to those who feel they are not being treated well and they feel that the social economic future is endangered. this argument, which is really a very, very difficult and bad one. this argument that is easy to bring peace to ukraine seems to be quite attractive to some and this may put pressure on the german

government. in particular, in a situation where the us may doubt scale is support for you in crime that a bigger button will be on your opinions and a policy which, which is faced with the knox. and this is an easy piece deal. of course we'll be more critical out. that's kind of thoughts from the bus as much stuff don't speaking to me. other lenny or no way has announced the death of a white beluga well, which gave new meaning to the term way of watching this because the memo was suspected of spying for russia. years ago he was found wearing a homicide on camera. the homeless have a st. petersburg stump on it was friendly retrace suspicions that it had been kept in captivity in russia. it's congress will not be examined. i know the,

i'm not is the day you can follow a team on social media at dw use, latest. that headlines of codes over is available on d, w dot com or on the b, w. and i though, from the time team on that, i spend a ton of your day with us. have a good the

the, the did you know the doorway itself way more electric cars per capita is in the us. that's really more than 80 percent of all calls sold in no way in 2023. we're not sure. how does the country become an electric call? and what does this have to do next? on d, w, will the legal immigration to the usa determined ways the american presidential election on the one hand,

some voters do strongly motivated by hatred and ignorance. on the other hand, there was a lot of solidarity and a willingness to support one another. trump wall and the border crisis flows in 60 minutes on d w. the should actually inject you belong to the 77 percent to come to i don't go and fix it right last, last you'll stop and here's 3 reasons why 1115. we're here to help you make up your mind. we are here on please find your mind. so all of the topics, i'm much it to you from couple talk fixed a new culture and then 15 minutes left side of our

community life on the service. the research is now on the top the if you look at a visa, no, it is actually just one thing that is probably worth the did you know that norway still is way more electric cars per capita than the us norway? well, buddy isn't kidding, but how did a nation build some fossil fuels to come and eat the power dice? and what does these.
