the blame game ma says it is come message, but with internal wrangling inside benjamin netanyahu, whose fragile coalition, there is no final approval from israel yet. so is this really the deal that can and the will bring the hostages home and, and the nightmare? so the will, we are re, people of gone, so i'm on youtube is mckinnon invalid, and this is the day the on the star. yes, i am confident and that will expect that one station will begin. as we said on sunday, i must have re next on this hostage release agreements come out, have boss is committed to what was agreed upon. and that's created a last minute crisis in an effort to extort last minute concessions. let me know amendments will add that. there is now

a glimmer of lights in the top and you still asked me why, why i am so happy about the police fire. it's a very dangerous deal for the hostages that will stay in gaza because all of this are going to end. that's what i am so happy. all. so coming up, just days before he leaves office, us president joe biden boone's against the rising danger of what he calls a new tech, industrial complex. today of knowledge our cause is taking shape and america of xtreme wealth, power and influence. americans are being buried under an avalanche of misinformation this information enabling the abuse of power. welcome to the day. there's none of us optimism in the middle east. so nice has a landmark deal reached between israel and homos 24 hours ago. a pay is on track

for approval. israel is cabinet must still sign off on the ceasefire agreement, which is meant to stop the slicing and goza and see the release of hostages, who was seized by home off in the october 7th terror attacks. the deal would also free palestinian prisoners for him is rainy jails, but the deal wouldn't take effect until sunday and there is still on substance the surrounding it, including whether it will lead to a complete ends to the war. in the meantime, the tax continues as those of the internal wrangling within israel's fragile governing coalition, people in both israel and in goza on edge. i think the agreement is a good agreement. the once we get all the hostages back into the bodies that are being held captive, but i think that's how much that will re, i'm regroup again as we see in the correlation that they have been some dis, court against disagreement with whom us will let him also has an international recruitment, so hopefully i don't think he will be ruined on it,

but there should be caution this 3 coming days because the truth should come into effect at noon higher on sunday, mazda of audio. but i had received feel like because there was a threat from the from come us like if we just like going to let them gas. i guess there might be 3 of the recipients. again, like knowing that it guarantees differently the session baskin isn't. is there any piece that to this than olsa? he was closely involved in negotiations with him off of, of the release of the is really sole j e led charlie back in 2011 and he joins us now from jerusalem. welcome to the w. thank so much for being with us. it's, i'm a bank of n as in yahoo is far right. minnesota to the national security is saying he will resign if this deal goes through. what do you think? could that be the end of nothing, yahoos? government. what could that due to the deal? no, i think that nothing else still has the majority in the government to pull off to steal it about bins. you're leaving. the government is

a blessing for most of the country. um, it was amazing that he wasn't even allowed to run for elections has been convicted as a supporter of terrorism in israel is. so i think that a, a deal that was made, which is not a great deal has just become a little bit better for the people of israel. but i mean, nothing yahoos coalition is obviously fairly fragile. and there's been so much on us and see about whether a deal would even be done. i mean, is relatives how most of reneging on promises? was it that or was it down so nothing, yahoo unintentionally is ready politics. that there was internal is really politics . that usually is really internal politics. the deal that we have now was actually put on the table in the end of may by president barton. it's taken until now for the deal to be done. and the main reason why the deal got done, just because donald trump is entering the white house on january 20th, trump said to nothing you all get this done. i don't want it on my desk when i

become president. and that's why it was done because there's nothing new that was agreed upon. even the negotiations that took place over the last 2 weeks. that wasn't on the table for months before. it was just that nothing. y'all wasn't ready to accept a deal under president button. and he can say no to president trump. what is your feeling? are you confident that this will happen, that it will be signed? you know, the deal will go through these ready government. it's been approved by her mass. it will begin to be implemented on sunday. the unfortunate reality is that it's not a great deal in 42 days 33 hostages. when we return, we don't know how many of them are alive. a number of a large number of palestinian prisoners will be freed. they have to enter into negotiations about a 2nd 42 day period that's supposed to end the war and bring about and that's really withdrawal from gaza and the release of all the rest of the hostages and more palestinian prisoners being fried. and then another period after that to begin

reconstruction without ever having talked about the political reality that needs to develop in gaza, of the gaza strip, not run by from us anymore. because because of run by him, us will never see a penny of international aid to engage in reconstruction. but nothing you know, never wanted to deal with the day after questions and, and we are stuck as a result of that on that. no, i mean they're all fee is that releasing palestinian prisoners could help him mass rebuilds. i mean, what role do you see for him off in goals are going forward? because i mean, how much has know, officially been defeats it has, is as well, i think everyone's be defeated here. they're still one to one. this war were all defeated the people of israel and the people of palestine road defeated. and if we don't own up to that, we're going to just keep doing this over and over again like we'd be doing for a 100 years from us has decimated and god. so they cannot be built themselves. they don't have the arms, they don't have the ability to import, they don't have finances to do this anymore. and on the day after this war,

israel is not facing the russian army. we have to be get real here. october separately happened because these where the army was not on the border. if they've been 15 times and 3 helicopters in the air, october 7th, wouldn't have happened. we have destroyed god. so there are more than $2000000.00 homeless people and goes up to 80 percent of the buildings up and destroyed. and the people of gossip blame how much they are holding the most responsible. they don't want that leadership anymore. they want from us out. the problem is that we don't have an alternative yet. a brit palestinian president would have boss is 90 years old and the me 19 to year before year term. and he enjoys 0 literacy legitimacy on the streets of palestine. there needs to be a solution where palestinians can govern themselves in a legitimate way and the international community. yes, to help that happen, including israel, including the neighbors, jordan and egypt, and the saudis, and the m rockies and buffering needs. and everyone else needs to get together and help to make decisions so that the palestinians can govern themselves and gauze and

we can see stability and security there. if we could just come back to the details of the deal, you mentioned it earlier, it would involve is riley hostages being exchange exchange for hundreds of palestinian prisoners. do we know anything about the history is riley hostages, who could be released? i mean, as you said, we don't know whether the dead or alive. so there is a list that's been prepared, but we don't know from us can deliver those people from us that they need a we can order to gather the information of where all the hostages are and what their condition is. there may be hostages, who may never return because they might be underneath the rubble of buildings that they've been above by israel, like thousands of other dozens who are buried underneath the rubble. so we don't know, we will take time and we probably won't know until all the hostages are free to was coming back and we sell comes alive and who is dead. and this is a very precarious situation. this is one of the reasons why i also think it's a bad deal because it's going to take months to include. we should have gone for

a deal that from us was willing to accept in september of ending it all in 3 weeks for the full release of the hostages, posted in prison, and then to the war and is really withdrawal from gaza. but no one was willing to pick up the 3 week deal that from us said they agreed to back in september. and you mentioned before the influence of trump in making this deal happen. in your opinion, why was it trump could and his people could persuade and us and y'all, who was to make a deal to push them towards the deal when biting failed. i don't think that you on try to persuade, let to know. i think he just told me nothing. y'all do it, get it done. and dr. young who is very conscious of the need to have a good relationship with donald trump on day one is hoping that trump will grant a nothing you all and his government the right to build more settlements. the rights perhaps alex parts of the occupied territories. i think that nothing else in his government is going to be in for a big surprise because i think trump is a great different president. now that he wasn't his 1st term when he set it on his

1st night that he's not going to make new words. he's going to end of the wars. he's some of the people that he hired, including steve woodcock, who negotiated that in the end in jerusalem to get this deal done is the, is in america and you and who has business interest in europe. road is very heavily invested in the kentucky solving well, funding the iraq, the suffering well fund. he is not just a pro israel guy. this guy looks at the interest of the united states with a much broader sense. and we know that donald trump is a transactional president, he's always good for what he can get and what the united states can get. and it's a much broader picture than just supporting israel as president biden did it, in your opinion, given everything we've talked about all the different instances, is this the deal that will end the will. and i do know its very precarious. it can break down to any moment and it's going for too long. a, a group of israeli soldiers couldn't encounter from us combatants with guns and

shoot at them and that could lead to a breakdown. and the got in the a ceasefire. there's also the pressure within israel and he is really government to go back to war after the 1st $42.00 days. so every day that we ever cease fires a blessing and we have to pray and work hard so that it remains and does lead to be under the work is really has to end. mm hm. and just again to go back to the details of the, of the deal. in the 2nd phase of the truth, it's outlined. all the hostages will be returned and israel will come politely, withdrawal from gaza. is that something? nothing you all who his government would agree to it seems that they've only agreed to it a nothing you know denies that he agrees to it as part of the agreement and a 16 of the 1st period. they're supposed to enter into negotiations about phase 2, which is supposed to be completed by day 30 of the 1st $42.00 days. it's not known whether or not nothing you will agree to it. i believe that the president trump has

a short, the egyptians of the guitar has to tell from us that the war would end in phase 2. otherwise there's no other explanation why come us agree to enter the deal. when that has been their position for many, many months, that they would not agree to any deal that does not lead to the end of the war. gosh, and baskin peace that to this also. and is there any hostage negotiate? so thank you so much for your time and for joining us on the ability. thank you. i . the us president joe biden has warned that americans, democracy is on the threat from the rising power of an ultra wealthy elite and a quotes tech industrial complex. he gave the warning, it is well speech from the white house days ahead of donald trump's return to office by notes i want. the artificial intelligence could pose new threats to people's rights and the privacy unless safeguards were puts in place today.

now a dark is taking shape in america of xtreme wealth, power and influence. that literally threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights, freedoms, and a fair shot for everyone. together. we see the consequences all across america are basically concerned about the potential rise of a tech industrial complex to compose real dangers for our country as well. miracles are being buried under an avalanche of misinformation. this information enabling the abuse of power. now now while buys and didn't mention any of the super wealthy by name, it is assumed that he was referring to the 1000000000 a tech a leads wielding significant influence through that ownership of media outlets. it's not the 1st time in american history that considerable power has been concentrated in the hands of a few. in the late 18 hundreds,

a handful of industrialists lights, a cold rubble barrens, and mast huge fortunes by exploiting work. cuz i'm not full results is. and by controlling prices, and some more on this, i am joined now by david leno, a bach 8 professor of entrepreneurship at the university of baltimore. thanks so much for joining us. he is a co author. i should mention of a book called the oligarchs gripped fusing wealth and power. welcome to dw, thank you so much for your time. and david, you've looked at all the galks in pilot and various countries around the world. how seriously should people in the united states be taking president biden's warning here? i think his warning is spot on. i think it's serious and i think the people in the united states should be taking it very, very seriously. indeed. in fact,

i think that we would go actually one step further than wasn't present by that said last evening, which is that the united states was essentially found. it has a kind of oligarchs for public. so it's true. we have a big problem today, but we've been dealing with this issue for 250 years. and as the current circumstances indicate, we still have not gotten a good handle. should we assume that it will all the got it, you know, rich business leaders with political influence. all they owe always bad. i would say that they're not always all bad. in fact, in the book down gina rodriguez guerra and i wrote, we identified a number of oligarchs who did some remarkably good things. i'll just point out to al gore too many people don't think of as a boulevard because obviously someone who's job done a tremendous amount of good in brittany and global attention to the issue of

climate change. and a little bit further back in time of herbert hoover, who let's be honest as a very mixed uh, sort of view. yeah. but amongst historians did tremendous good at the end of world war one and helping to feed so many people across europe. and what was on the street. so yes, oh adults can in fact do good. um i think these days were a little bit more focused on some of the less good things they're doing. so these days we're looking at tech. all like aux tell us what it is about the american tech, all the gods that could make them a danger to democracy? yeah i, i think this is, this is the key issue that my co author valentino rodriguez guerra and i are focusing on in our in our new book. chuckle is drugs, particularly those that are focusing on the search. and now a, i have already shaped the way in which we all think an act, and that is really in many ways, the highest for

a power is essentially on regulated power. it is not a power that easily defensible against. and uh and, and so this is the thing i think this is the issue of our times, or how do we contain oligarchs who are doing things that are fundamental to the human condition. and how do we, as citizens in the world, in the us and elsewhere? how do we have a voice in, in helping to compete those activities? what could americans lun, the of, from the experience of, of other countries. it well firstly, it's a, it's difficult to, uh, to contain oligarchs. in fact, you really almost have to go back to age increase, which had a number of states that, that were oligarchies to find examples of how to contain oligarchs can indeed just use the ancient greek example. the oligarchs, their essentially contained themselves. they were,

they were self regulating the view wise, if their power and wealth between 2 on checked that the society would basically revolt against them. and so i think, you know, in those societies at that time they found a way forward. today. let's be honest, i think we're all struggling to figure out what to do uh, i think piecemeal. activities like sanction oligarchs, or even convicting them of crimes are not really addressing the fundamental issue here, which is the oligarchy or a cabbage structural problem. and one that we're just at the early stages of getting into law. and if we don't get a handle on them, i mean, is there any particular points of know over time that you can identify, you know, off to which the voters are essentially shuts out. and the country is fully in the hands of these, all the gods, which we'll hear about as well. i mean i, i hate to use the analogy because i think it does tend to get over use. but the

example of post communist pressure does come to mind. that's where my initial experience with this phenomenon began. you, you can see what happens. you essentially have 2 different oligarchs systems that are involved in russia after the fall of communism. and neither one of them were great uh, the current system which is presided over by mr. tutoring is not great, but for the bulk of all of the russian people. um, so we could see something like that. the only thing that is constraining, of course in the us, is a, is a, a constitutional order that does provide some checks and balances in a political culture that does still feel at least to me as, as having some elements of being a democratic, admittedly frayed. the democracy of the united states as frayed and i worry a lot as a citizen, that many, many americans are simply overwhelmed by what is happening to them and beginning to

tune out. so i, i think we could probably avoid what happened to russia. but again, in the united states, at least oligarchs has been a thing for a long time. sarah features are a feature, and this is david link above professor, venturing up on tripping to ship at the university of bolton. all. thank you so much for joining us. fascinating stuff. thank you. the, as the warranty train approaches the 3 year mark, the armed forces struggling to recruit new troops. keith is on the prussia from the united states, to lower the mobilization age from 25, down to a scene. it's an unpopular prospect pushing some young man and the families to make tough choices. he w correspondence on you found the cover pulls now from teeth. this is mark

seems favorite sports in keith. but his training would soon come to an end. must seem turns 18 in november, the age starting at which means of obedience to leave you queen on the motional imposed at the beginning of russia's or low to war. before that happens, the teacher, like many young man, his age has decided to go abroad to study. yeah, for to waste has his own wish i want to leave because i could be drafted into the army. as i can see from sneak, i'll be able to return when the conflict ends. the actually being i wasn't, if the war lasts for 10 years with god forbid. then it's a one way ticket and that it's still hard, but i have to accept those worries have intensified as you clean, increasing the struggles to replenish its ranks and rotates exhausted. forces of the front often near the 3 years of war, the army is reported yet out of willing recruits. that's prompted cause by the us,

ukraine's biggest military back up to, nor the call up age. from the current 25 to 18. i always go to bed just as an expert in demographics. she says the war has for the slash, ukraine's or rating shrinking population where the potential pool of young may have gone scripts in the country. each 18 to 25, she says, is just not sizable enough and should not to be sent to fight. this is, you know, but at the time you pull causes, studies in britain show that the young of the soldiers, the worse the consequences in terms of p, p. s. d, alcohol addiction, crime. all to the side of things. uh, did you ask me for with you? so if you take this into account, the last us for ukraine will be huge. it was not only democratic, but also the potential consequences for human capital not gotten to school,

but it will simply destroys a nation. this and will not see you even among the military, the little appetite for lowering the mobilization, aged 18 recruiters, a few queens prominent colored assaults brigade, see what's needed instead is better training to raise motivation. and those of course age is an advantage on them. if a person is young and has no health problems with the condition, you're so thought of and then, but even 40 year old and 50 year old man can fight like young man. but i'm going to come on with everything. depends on training of the what the bus was and we need to change it so that people get longer, better quality training to all the door the can be. so the more trained person now there are the less new forces will be needed mon over. so for maxine family, the decision to send him abroad has been an agonizing one. his father alexi whose

52 also cannot leave the country due to who's on the marshal. that means he doesn't know when he'd see his son to get or his mother you leo says the issue of whether to speak or to go when the waters on remain step, who in society does not have us. that there's that, it's not easy. it's a question of ethics, who should be sent to war? why some and not others, but why should a 10 year olds be protected and 25 year olds be sent? all of us were worried about this, thinking about it, trying to find solutions. each family in their own way. when at between station in key, these families of sending off young mean relatives abroad, far away from the fight to this between hits to neighboring food. it

seems like this play out every day. despite efforts to protect the young generation, queen may have to austin to put the future lives on the line if the war drags on. and that's the shape. this is i remember you can follow up same on social media at dw news as the handle. you need that, and if it's the licensed headlines you're looking for, there's always all websites. he told me. don't com for now though, from the entire team here on the day. thanks so much for spending positive your day with us the
