1:07 pm
they have three it was confirmed to us today at three divisions of their military sorted out up and down this border ready for some kind of land incursion. there are no signs right now on the other side of the border. hezbollah is ready for that kind of mass attack. they can very easily ratchet up their aerial warfare. receipt rockets, missiles, antitank missiles we see that kind of thing but there is about 100,000 plus rockets and they can start those flying very, very quickly. >> that is the threat. greg palkot thank you on the israeli lebanon border. molly: is you just heard hezbollah@associated press today it's already in the heart of the battle and working to weaken israel. that is raising fears the lebanon basic terror group will open that second front in the war got a chief international correspondent steve hair again. he is there live on the ground
1:08 pm
in beirut but with that side ofe border. >> molly, the fighting has been contained but steady at both sides between the israelis over the northern border into lebanon and fighting back from hezbollah both sides of firing rockets and antitank missiles. strangely enough officials from both sides really saying the same thing. the defense minister where they pay heavy price. hamas -- hezbollah, basically saying the same thing morning israel would pay a heavy price if this does turn into a second front. he said hezbollah is already in the battle and vowed if israel launches a ground offensive in the gaza strip, hezbollah would join the fight. hezbollah far more powerful than hamas they got tens of thousands of rockets as well as a lot of battle hardened troops several thousand who fought for years in syria. back to you.
1:09 pm
if i've steve harrigan thank you there from beirut we appreciate that on both sides were getting from your said the board as well thank you. >> president biden spoke on the telephone the two hostages that tend to release chicago native judith raanan and her 17 year old daughter natalie per their kidnapped and the terrorist attack on october 7. they are the first of the two hostages who have been released. the president has thanked the israeli governments for their work in securing both judith and natalie's release. ten americans still missing protective estate antony blinken saying some of them of course believed to be held hostage right now in gaza. alexandria hoff is reporting from delaware where the president is spending the weekend at his home there. i alexandria. >> hi eric. the president spoke with his mother and daughter relayed a message the united states government will be standing
1:10 pm
behind them and with them as they tried to recover from the experience of this ordeal they have suffered. the white house actually released a moment from that calls or take a look at that. >> we are working out a long time. were going to get them all out god willing. i just want to say. i hope you are both, how you're feeling but a in good health as well. >> god bless you guys. >> 10 americans suspected to be held captive by hamas the promise to get the remaining out is clear. thanks it a little messy as a present response to questions shouted at him after that call. >> how's your cult americans? >> it went well. we should they delay the ground
1:11 pm
invasion? >> yes. >> the president they are peering to say yes to israel delaying a ground invasion into gaza. it appears he did not hear that correctly the white house quickly issued a correction with communication director stating the present was far away he did not hear the full question for the question sounded like would you like to see more hostages released? he was not commenting on anything else. the stthis after the president released a statement on the humanitarian aid making into gaza i made it clear from the outset of this crisis both my public statements and private conversations humanitarian assistance was a critical and urgent need that had to get moving. they had a fundraiser last nigt president biden theorized hamas would launch its attack on israel's talks they were having with saudi arabia over closing their relationship, normalizing that relationship. eric: hamas terrorists to no peace in the middle east alexandria thank you. molly: both hamas and hezbollah
1:12 pm
get financial backing from my romford they are only two of tehran's proxies in the middle east. now the white house is under increasing pressure to stop the flow of weapons of the cash to iran and its abilities but let's bring in former foreign policy adviser to british prime minister margaret thatcher. thank you for taking time of the saturday afternoon is all this is unfolding. i want to dig in basically to the messaging has the white house been clear enough with what they have said which is essentially don't, don't, don't to iran. to anyone who might be interested in getting involved. looking at what is unfolding there in israel and gaza? >> thank you very much for having me on the show. and my view i do think joe biden has been far too weak in the face of iranian aggression. affected by an administration overall approach toward iran over the last two or three years is being catastrophically weak. it has invited aggression from
1:13 pm
the iranian regime. biden has had all kinds of mixed message and there is no overall strategy for the bite administration in terms of dealing with iranian threats. undoubtedly joe biden has led a spectacularly weak over the course of this administration, that has to change. we need to see the president showing real backbone on the iran front. standing up to the world the biggest stakes answer of terror. i have to say i think biden's overall foreign policy has been weak need. it has been by the enemies of the united states as a green light to go ahead and attack we have seen that with the hamas attack. we saw that in the aftermath of a disastrous afghanistan withdrawal. yet to see big picture strategic thinking. we have to see them backbone, some spine from biden with regards to iran. so far he is not showing that.
1:14 pm
ask her talk about the big picture it's brought on the map you're looking at specifically the conflict for a moment stretching the map out beyond israel dispatch a character choice to the persian gulf but were getting word this and other carrier on the way. yemen, home to iran >> who the rebels have launch armed missiles, drones, thought to be headed toward israel. facing armed drone attacks. from my run back to malicious. the broad map, are you concerned what comes next for the united states? >> absolutely. the iranian regime seeks the extermination of the people of israel f print this is a genocil threat to israel and also the iranian regime wants to weaken the united states on the world stage. an alliance with the allies such
1:15 pm
as russia for example. we have to be aware of the big picture strategy. be prepared to defeat at the strategy of the bite administration must bring the iranian regime to its knees we need to see the sanctions in place that will significantly weaken a regime. tons of billions of dollars have flowed into iran's accounts. as the weak enforcement of sanctions. we have to ensure every single front the iranian regime is weakened rather than strengthened. i am not sure it r really if bin understands exactly what he is dealing with with the iranian regime. so far bite is not demonstrated any willingness to aggressively confront iran. this is in sharp contrast to the trump administration. which didn't give the radiant at regime a severe thrashing on many occasions biden is not shown any willingness to do that.
1:16 pm
a policy of appeasement to resurrect the failed and disastrous iran nuclear deal jcpoa the joint conference of plan of action. this is a terrible approach a appeasement it is incredibly dangerous. of course for that middle east but for the united states as well. the a radiant regime is emboldened, through its proxies against united states. there's been no real response a tall from the biden administration. i do think president biden is been a spectacular failure on the world stage and america's allies across the world now doubting and questioning american leadership as a result. this is >> tactically bad state of affairs in terms of u.s. leadership right now. >> thank you for your insights. i thought you would agree that the walls to editorial board they recently published an editorial saying the ayatollahs in tehran need to understand more than their terrorist proxies are at risk their nuclear sites and oil fields are also on the target list for those are though out those out
1:17 pm
there think should be tougher as well. thank you for your insight. >> thank you very much. eric: israel vowing to dismantle and destroy hamas and gaza. unlike any military campaign in israel's history. what they will face, how they will fight and how they can win? next is our coverage continues of the war oah mn israel. headache? better now. new mucinex kickstart gives all-in-one and done relief with a morning jolt of instant cooling sensation. it's comeback season. life, diabetes. each day is a unique blend of going, doing, and living. glucerna protein smart with 30 grams of protein to help keep you moving. uniquely designed with carbsteady to help manage blood sugar response. glucerna, bring on the day. this is a special alert. israel is under attack and israel's enemies seek our destruction.

1:21 pm
the israeli military promising to ramp up its attack on gaza after launch is another round of rockets into southern israel. tens of thousands of idf troops are at the gaza border as israel prepares for an expected groundd invasion. the huge complication, hamas is believed to be holding hostages there. lucas tomlinson is live in tel aviv at the latest. >> molly, two american hostages have briefly been freed from hamas captivity 10 other americans are missing and feared also held in captivity inside gaza joining more than 200 israelis the father of one of those hostages spoke about what his son endured after being kidnapped. >> the men stood up and went with them but it was menacing his wife told him i love you.
1:22 pm
watch after your self and do not try to be a hero prove that it's the last time my son was seen. he left there healthy and sound i hope and believe he will come back healthy and sound. >> tonight, dozens of frustrated family members and friends demand the return of more than 200 hostages from hamas protested outside the defense minister's home tonight demanded the resignation of israel's top negotiator. earlier we visited a morgue on israeli army base while many of the 1400s really killed have been taken there we spoke to a reservist who said she has seen babies cut out of pregnant women and beheaded. women raped their pelts is broken said nobody in israel has seen an attack like this and it 75 your history. >> i am a child of holocaust survivors i grew up hearing stories of the camps. i thought those were the worst stories. these stories are worse. i think that is the hardest thing for me. i never thought i would live to
1:23 pm
see something worse than the stories i grew up with. >> israeli forces plan to increase and turn up the volume on their airstrikes in gaza. israeli f-15 launch from bases here in israel that only a few miles from their target for they actually have to fly miles offshore the mediterranean to properly arm their satellite guided bombs. molly: it's so important the full scope of the massacres understood. thank you so much for that reporting lucas tomlinson there on the ground in israel thank you. >> it is hard to imagine more fiendishly difficult set of circumstances than the idf faces that they have to go into gaza city. and i fear they have to do them if the mission is to destroy hamas there are literally going to have to go into every high rise, every floor, room, cellar, and tunnel and clear them. eric: that's a general form commander of u.s. forces in
1:24 pm
afghanistan. sketching out exactly what the israeli defense forces will face as they potentially launch a ground offensive in gaza. israel deploying hundreds of thousands of ground active and reserve troops and tanks tanks n the gaza border. admitting the battle will be long and difficult could last for weeks or months perform army information officer christopher alexander's here is a veteran of the global war on terror in the middle east. servcertainly strategic operatis command. christopher, the gen general lat right out too. this is going to be potential urban warfare, apartment by apartment, hallway by hallway and since israel withdrew from gaza in 2005 you know hamas has been prepared for this what you expect? >> well, went military combat arms as a scout the training that goes into urban combat it
1:25 pm
is exhausting. the shrapnel that flies around there is no soft ground to dive into cover. from the very base of it all the way to the complexities for commanders planning operations it is the most difficult type of fighting that there is. >> what has israel been doing to prepare for this? >> what israel is doing right now they are disrupting hamas ability to have command and control to communicate effectively. to collect intelligence. to be able to prepare for this. the first thing you do you disrupt the adversary's ability to plan, make decisions, control their forces. so that is what they'r they areg now. they are softening targets they're doing essentially preparatory fires soap maneuver forces, infantry supported protecting tanks, tanks don't fight will in cities but moving in to essentially cut off the
1:26 pm
northern part of the strip and launch this operation into gaza city which is almost twice as densely populated london, england >> defense minister gallant has talked about three phases destroy hamas, deal with pockets of resistance this rad in z basically a larger security zone. as we are looking at a map of gaza what do you see? when can they get to the point they can destroy hamas and then go to the pockets of resistance? and how do they tell who is aware if there being shot at? >> is externally difficult. we use different words will me plan operations disrupt, destroy and destroy is a very, very aggressive term. it is very hard to succeed at. so we have to understand what they mean by that word believe or not the department of defense is three different definitions
1:27 pm
room service branches. audits of the what to put an end to hamas in a political sense what is that mean? ultimately you are going to stop them from being able to conduct operations. you're not going to find every member of them down and kill the mess not realistic. i think the true challenge is once the weeks to months of fighting are over they mop up resistance they have to rebuild where they have to in some way get out of gaza and deal with what happens next. that was the epic challenge we face in iraq and to some extent in afghanistan. eric: would use see on that end with the united nations for example some type of force? a multi- multibillion-dollar build plan is it possible to completely remove hamas from the consciousness of the gazans who elected them in the first place?
1:28 pm
>> what is a difficult, what to think what israel and the united states certainly hopes for is hamas no longer has political or military control of the gaza strip. some sort of international coalition clearly arab lead comes in to help rebuild. the real challenge we face in iraq as you put eight in place you begin to provide a better future, an alternative and one car bomb, one mistake on your side allows hamas or others like them to say everything's failing come back to us. the piece is going to be even more of a hard thing to win ultimately for israel than the combat operations. which by no means are going to be easy. sporting a potentially rebuild gaza but can you completely wipe out and expunge the erratic islamic of that is a separate challenge chris for alexander former army information officer. thank you for your service to
1:29 pm
our country. thank you for your insight today of course. molly: thousands taking part in global protests against israel today including a massive demonstration in new york city. more from fat rally next. businesses need 5g solutions today. that's why they choose t-mobile for business. mlb partners with t-mobile to not only enhance the fan experience, but to advance how the game is played. aaa relies on t-mobile's network to stay connected nationwide, so they can help get their members back on the road. and we're helping pano ai innovate, to stop the spread of wildfires. now's the time to see what america's largest 5g network can do for your business. my little family is me, aria, and jade. just the three of us girls. i never thought twice about feeding her kibble. but about two years ago, i realized she was overweight. she was always out of breath. that's when i decided to introduce
1:30 pm
1:33 pm
israel you can't hide. you are committing genocide. >> thousands of pro- palestinian dems and gathers you can see in brooklyn, new york this afternoon. calling for a cease-fire in gaza. but the terrorists of hamas listen to their chances one of many protests held around the world. last night here in new york city police arrested over 150 people
1:34 pm
at a midtown manhattan rally that one sponsored by the democratic socialists of america of america as for the events this afternoon comments eb cotton is there with the very latest. x hi eric. you mentioned thousands gathered here in brooklyn in support of palestinians. this event was promoted on social media has an opportunity to flood the streets for the palestinian authority. we watch that play out straight people join the crowd as the evening continued. right now we are watching people continuing their march down the city streets. people here calling israel a terrorist state it is real existence and occupation. others have chanted to normalized a word which referred to previous palestinian uprisings against israel. the wheels are jails criticizing president joe biden for sending aid to israel. right now there are no counter protesters but a few hours before thousands filled the city street we saw this a truck driving to the intersection displaying photos of the israelis have been kidnapped by
1:35 pm
hamas the truck driver was booed while leaving the area but with nuts in the vehicle since. there is a sizable number of police officers out here but they're definitely outnumbered. nypd spokesperson telling me they were expecting from 5000 people to show up. similar demonstrations have been unfolding at colleges and universities across the country. jewish students assaying university leaders are allowing anti-semitism on campus. one jewish student telling us she had to leave class because of it. they ran out of class and crying yesterday because of that and because a girl in my class gave a presentation thank israel is conducting a genocide. >> eric, as i mentioned this crowd is on the move pretty going to try to follow them as they continued their protest of the city streets back to you. so for that truck driver with a pointed and poignant message exposing the realities of the
1:36 pm
hamas terrorists thank you. >> the hamas leadership does not care about the civilians for which they are the governing authority. indeed when they have their own civilians killed they use it as a propaganda tool it's not just that they use them as human shields, that use them as human propaganda machines. >> former secretary of state mike pompeo delivering a stark warning disinformation on the israel hamas war searches across social media. analysts say the rise in fake or misleading posts online is only inciting more conflict. editor and chief joins me now to discuss this. there is a war going on then there is a much broader propaganda battle. who is winning that propaganda battle? that's an excellent question. were not new to efforts by israel opponents and flood
1:37 pm
social media. also by the way traditional media with disinformation and falsehoods about what happens on the ground. but it feels as though this event has been different in scale than anything we have seen. and unfortunately many in that media have been complicit in that we of course about the incident that took place earlier in the week with the hospital in gaza there was an explosion and immediately media outlets around the world bought the hamas line an israeli airstrike at this hospital very quickly became clear that was a total lie. it was a palestinian islamic jihad rocket broke up as it was fired over into israel, landed in because of her exp exploitedn this parking lot but by that time this narrative have been sets it is still circulating on social media today. that is just one example of the flood of disinformation, misinformation and outright lies piercings during the conflict
1:38 pm
today. >> yes a lack of professional due diligence on a lot of those publications. which as you mentioned is its own problem compared to the propaganda that hamas spreads and internally as well in the gaza strip. where do people get their information? how do they get information? they don't get real information is the reality, right? >> a look hamas is an authoritarian terrorist organization that controls the gaza strip with an iron fist there is no freedom of information in gaza there is no freedom of the press we have to understand everything that comes out of gaza is very tightly controlled. so first about anything that comes from a quote unquote official source in gaza we note that comes from hamas it's the governing authority in the territory. we talked about for example casualty numbers that come out of the ministry of health that is the hamas ministry of health people simply don't understand we talk about media reports coming out of gaza, a lot of
1:39 pm
those are being censored by hamas we know hamas has intimidated reporters, has threatened reporters that they don't follow a certain line. this is the environment we are talking about so while israel of course is a democracy with freedom of information. freedom of the press, i am a part of that. that is something we take as a sacred duty. that simply not the situation on the other site everything we hear coming from gaza we have to take that as a grain of salt. >> you talk about the frustration and israel being blamed initially and people going without line regarding the bombing at the hospital the strike on the hospital. but in the immediate days following the massacre that occurred in israel there is a student group at harvard that put out a statement it was a collaboration of student groups that put out a statement essentially blaming israel for the violence unfolding entirely. so there is a contingent of people going to blame israel for every aspect of this conflict no matter who fired a rocket.
1:40 pm
no matter who did what. your thoughts on that ideology? >> it is twisted. i have never seen anything like it. i wish harvard were an outlier but it is not something we see happening on college campuses across america there are rallies in support against israel's right to defend itself it's important to know by the way a lot of those rallies started before israel started taking any kind of action in gaza there were simply rallies in support of this tragic massacre of 1400 men, women, children, grandparents and infant sets we see happening. it's absolutely abhorrent. enforcement seems to be spreading and those of us who believe in the truth, believe in morality to fight back we see that happening of certain campuses we see donors and the going to withdraw their funding from these universities if the administration do not speak out against these twisted perversions of morality but i like to see more of that i would like to see people starting to say this is not okay we will not allow our funds to be used in
1:41 pm
this way. by the way the federal government becomes involved in this is pure anti-semitism when you're holding the jewish state to a standard you would not hold any other country to use a only the jewish state does not have right to defend itself which of course is something you would not say about any other country that is anti-semitism in the government is to become a velvet. >> thank much for talking to us about the challenges regarding messaging as this goes for there's going to be a lot of communication coming out we thank you for your clarity and chatinchatting with us today. appreciate it. so for american troops in iraq and syria are fending off drone attacks from my radiant backed militia as the white house tried to prevent the war from growing into a larger conflict. what we are doing about it, nexu live from the pentagon as theur war on s israel. it changes how you eat, how you feel, and how you enjoy life. it changes your smile and how others smile at you.

1:46 pm
270,000 migrants were apprehended in the month of september that is the highest monthly total ever recorded. it also marks or makes fiscal year 2020 through the highest 2r on record for migrant encounters. and on top of all of that border agents apprehended 18 people on the fbi terror watch list in september but that means fiscal year closed out the 169 terror watch list arrest by border patrol. that too is the highest fiscal year number ever recorded. x seafort israel goes toward tensions rising across the middle east. took out drones and missiles launched during the coast of yemen and the red sea last week. defense officials says the projectiles were headed for israel. there's been a number of attacks on u.s. forces in iraq and elsewhere. david has the latest with the
1:47 pm

1:50 pm
that i was with while we were running we passed by a ditch they were a bunch of kids hiding in this ditch they were telling us to come hide with them. the last minute my friend said we should not do this this is not a good idea pretty we hide in this ditch on the terrace column and they are above us there's nowhere for us to hide there's nowhere for us to run their going to shoot us. so we decided to continue running instead of hiding in the ditch i later found out the other kids who decide to stay and hide in the ditch got shot and killed. >> natalie said she ran for four hours eventually found safety at a nearby town where she met a good samaritan that the lettere in the trunk of a car to get to the border and out of israel but now that she is back of the united states she said she wants to spread her story to let the world no innocent people at that music festival, unarmed people were attacked and killed by the terrace. molly: she is right and thank her for telling that story.
