10:24 am
good afternoon today -- today is a truly historic occasion. a moment of hope and opportunity for all the peoples of the middle east. and, in particular, for the millions in our younger generations. the declaration supporting peace between the kingdom of bahrain and the state of israel is an historic step on the road to genuine and lasting peace, security and prosperity across the region and for all who live there regardless of religion, sect, ethnicity, or ideology for too long, the middle east has been set back by conflict
10:25 am
and mistrust causing untold destruction and thwarting the potential of generations of our best and brightest young people. now i am convinced we have the opportunity to change that today's declaration was made possible by the vision, courage and commitment of his majesty who supported by -- -- supported by the people of bahrain has protected, institutionalized and enhanced bahrain's centuries old spirit of co-existence and harmony. and has the wisdom to recognize
10:26 am
that genuine cooperation is the most effective means to achieve peace and to safeguard legitimate rights. thank you, your majesty, for this vision of peace for the region based on trust, respect and understanding between all faiths, races and nations. to our brothers in the united arab emirates, i congratulate you on your own momentous peace accord being signed today with israel his highness bin zayed has shown great leadership and foresight to make peace possible and secure a brighter future for our region
10:27 am
for the state of israel and prime minister netanyahu, we welcome and appreciate these steps from you and your government recognizing that enduring peace and security is only possible through a genuine engagement that protects the rights and interests of countries and peoples in the region in particular, i want to express my deep appreciation to president donald trump and his administration mr. president, your statesmanship and tireless efforts have brought us here today and made peace a reality
10:28 am
and to secretary pompeo, senior adviser jared kushner and special represent atiative who e have -- and others, many others who have carried out their mandates with dedication and skill. ladies and gentlemen, today's agreement is an important first step, and it is now incumbent on us to work urgently and actively to bring about the lasting peace and security our peoples deserve. a just, enduring two-state solution to the palestinian/israeli conflict will be the foundation, the bedrock of such peace. we have shown today --
10:29 am
[ applause ] we have shown today that such a path is possible even realistic what was only dreamed of a few years ago is now achievable. and we can see before us a golden opportunity for peace, security and prosperity for our region let us together and with our international partners waste no time in seizing it thank you. ♪
10:30 am
[ applause ] ♪ >> well, as we await the president, the prime minister netanyahu and the two foreign ministers to make their way for the official signing, i'm going to bring in peter alexander who is also standing by. and i have to tell you, peter, this is -- they spared no expense. they pulled out all the stops for this, the white house did. they are trying to make this as politically helpful to the president's cause as they possibly can on a day like this. so close to the election >> yeah, chuck, you're exactly right. just seven weeks out before the
10:31 am
election an opportunity for this president to focus not on the coronavirus, not on climate change but instead on foreign policy, casting himself today as a peacemaker, as a dealmaker and as a statesman beside benjamin netanyahu and the leaders of bahrain and the united arab emirates these are countries that have benefited from the trump presidency benjamin netanyahu benefiting numerous times before his election by president trump's intervention on multiple occasions. >> all right, peter. we'll stand down here and watch the signing. thank you, sir >> a treaty of peace, diplomatic relations and full normalization. they will each sign three copies one in english, hebrew and arabic we kindly ask that all guests remain seated for the signing of the documents.
10:32 am
10:33 am
[ applause ] >> all right welcome to an abbreviated "mtp daily. we've been watching a signing ceremony at the white house. the united states, israel, uae and bahrain put the ink on a deal known as the abraham aaccords uae and bahrain becoming the third and fourth countries to officially recognize israel joining egypt and jordan let me bring in peter alexander. benjamin netanyahu, israel is on a second lockdown, and yet, as you noted before we came, in
10:34 am
that brief interlude as they were walking down the steps headed to the south lawn, the president has done what he could to help out benjamin netanyahu with his re-election issues. and here is a returned favor israel is in lockdown right now. a second lockdown because of the virus but he chose to come to the united states for this on the president's timeline >> that's exactly right, chuck even as bebe netanyahu faces protests at home given the circumstances there, his own corruption allegations and faces the coronavirus pandemic with another additional three-week lockdown taking place there, there was a ceremonial handing of a white house key from trump to benjamin netanyahu. he's given netanyahu a lot more than that over the last several years. a chance to show an historic
10:35 am
picture of unity and to deliver peace as he is presenting on the world stage today. the backdrop of this being the election here in the united states, the president who has allied himself in effect with not just israel but these allies of saudi arabia there given his relationship to that country and their shared common enemy, which, of course, is iran here and the anticipation if joe biden is to win the white house that he may be more inclined to re-engage iran president trump withdrawing from the iran nuclear deal. this administration has been very forceful in its condemnation of iran >> peter, this deal is a bit uncomfortable for a lot of observers to watch because it seems so transactional it's as if pulling out of the iran deal is what got these gulf states on board to do this to then recognize it. it feels like there is a lot of quid pro quos involved in this that it isn't something larger than that.
10:36 am
then again, sometimes middle east diplomacy, the only way to make things move is through the transactional nature >> obviously, what is ignored here as well, chuck, even as the president says that he has created peace in the middle east, that's usually referred to as peace between the israelis and the palestinians here, but the trump campaign has been touting this preemptively as the president having achieved peace in the middle east they even noted he was a nobel prize nominee at this point, though they spelled nobel wrong in the note they put out they feel they've been betrayed not just by the trump administration which they've long felt but also by these arab gulf states, as it relates to jerusalem, the palestinian cause, and to al aqsa mosque in jerusalem itself but this does demonstrate the realignment that's taking place in the middle east and trump is pushing that forward >> no, you never thought a day
10:37 am
that you'd see the united states take sides on sunni/shia splits, but on this one it looks like there's a sunni/arab alliance with israel and the united states and what the consequences of that are going forward, we will all find out. peter alexander on the white house south lawn, observing a signing ceremony peter, thanks very much. this ceremony at the white house comes with just 49 days until the election here in the united states as the president is facing a series of domestic crises that seem practically biblical fires, floods and, yes, a plague the fires out west have spread to new areas with new evacuations in idaho joining oregon and california and washington state in dealing with out-of-control fires the smoke can now be seen on the east coast both in washington, d.c., and in new york. both have seen smoke from these fires end up in these sfaefires. yesterday the president downplayed the impact of climate change, a reality he's long
10:38 am
denied which comes amid a sign the climate crisis is getting worse. warmer waters are fueling yet another major hurricane in the gulf sally is expected to dump feet of rain on parts of alabama and florida as it sadly crawls we're talking 2 miles an hour. as it crawls its way to landfall early tomorrow let's go to chris jansing in gulf shores, alabama, which is now closer to the path of hurricane sally than we thought yesterday. also with us is the "today" show's al roker. we'll start out west following the wildfires. erin mclaughlin who had to file this report for us because she and her crew had to leave the area because of deteriorating air quality. >> reporter: chuck, the fire is well and truly gone from this area, but as you can see behind me, it's left behind a trail of devastation and death. 15 kuld in this area alone, part of the north complex fire. entire community of barry creek totally flattened, including the home of jillian and her family
10:39 am
this is the second time they've lost a home to fire in two years. they lost their home in 2018 to the paradise fire. they learned key lessons from that this time around. they knew when they got those alerts to evacuate that they needed to get off the mountain, and they needed to leave quickly. but they left behind everything, and they lost it all once again. take a listen. >> it's kind of become the new normal i don't know if it really has registered, but just trying to make the best of what we've got. this right here is what's most important. >> i don't even know if i'm making safe decisions anymore because it feels like the fire is following us. >> complicating matters, they didn't have insurance. now they have insurance for the paradise fire. they were able to take that money and buy their barry creek cottage free and clear now they don't know what they're
10:40 am
going to do next they say it feels as though the fire is following them chuck? >> it has to be an eerie feeling when you feel like you just can't escape it right now. and speaking of not escaping, we've got -- let's move to the other side of the country, down on the gulf coast. gulf shores, alabama, where chris jansing is awaiting hurricane sally. the storm has slowed, and it looks as if it is shifting a bit east what can you tell us, chris? >> yeah, it's coming a little closer here than we had expected just 24 hours ago, chuck they are talking about the potential for historic flooding. this san area that has known some nasty hurricanes. ivan in 2004 then it was the winds over 130 miles per hour they don't expect that from this hurricane, maybe 70, 75. the real problem is going to be exactly what you said. when you have a storm that's moving this slowly, and we've just been feeling the rain
10:41 am
felting and pelfelt i pelting and peltzing then you have sustained rainfall and we're on the early side of it, it's going to get worse into late afternoon and really bad in the overnight hours. they are talking about potentially as much rainfall from this one storm as alabama and gulf shores are used to getting in an entire month so there's a evacuation order. it's voluntary, but some people have been going into shelters. they have three area shelters that are open. and look at the surf there we've seen these waves whipping up again and again and again, and the other problem is going to be that surge they're talking about something potentially as much as seven feet high, and they're warning people, as many as we've seen driving in we're about an hour, hour and 15 minutes south of mobile. we haven't seen a lot of people on the roads we've seen very few people out who are obviously heeding those
10:42 am
warnings they're very experienced here. we're getting that horizontal wind which brings the rain that's coming across but if you can imagine, i'm about 5'7". imagine a 7-foot wall of water coming at you. so that's what they're watching for. they are preparing for they have a federal disaster declaration already that's been signed by the president. there's a state of emergency here, and now it's a matter of waiting because it's so slow much slower than you and i can walk, chuck. >> yeah, that slowing down is what has everybody so upset there. all right, chris jansing in gulf shores, alabama. be safe. let's turn to al roker let's start with the water issues we're dealing with. i have to say, how did we go from sally being a disturbance we need to monitor on the gulf side of the state of florida to
10:43 am
what we saw. the initial, and i say this. i have family and friends in the panhandle, so i pay a lot of attention to the gulf side the initial projections, this storm was never going to achieve hurricane status how are we missing these super fast-forming hurricanes so quickly right now at the hurricane center >> well, you know, actually, chuck, we were looking at this earlier this week. and we -- it was part of the development zone, right? right now you can see this frenzy we've got going on. so we knew that it was going to be developing. and we thought early on this could become a storm so this one actually was picked up by the national hurricane center you can see we've got quite a bit going on but what we were concerned about and what we have been seeing this season, we've seen twice before, the systems that generally would be fairly weak start intensifying they start rapid
10:44 am
intensification. they overperform this is a category 1 at this time but chuck, earlier yesterday, it went from a 1 to a 2 it achieved rapid intensification status and so what we are watching with this now is not only is it going to be a slow mover, but it is going to be a rainmaker as chris alluded to it's now starting to move to the north. the good news is as a 1, the winds aren't going to be that horrible but as we remember a couple of years ago with harvey, it was basically became a tropical system it comes onshore about 4:00 a.m., give or take, wednesday morning as a category 1 storm. but it is moving so slowly that it is going to produce a lot of rain but even as it makes its way inland, it's still going to dump a ton of rain. look at this graph this shows you on average when a storm is moving about 25 miles per hour, it dumps about five inches of rain when it's at 5 miles per hour,
10:45 am
chuck, 30 inches of rain well, cut that in half it's only moving at about 2 miles per hour in fact, this could be one of only if not the slowest landfalling hurricanes ever. possible historic flooding from southern alabama into western florida. and, in fact, mobile, gulf shores, biloxi, i should say mobile and gulf shores, are going to be on the dirty side of this storm the stronger side. the northeastern quadrant. and so they could be really looking at dangerous -- it's 4 to 7-foot storm surge, but also that heavy rain. 30 inches or more falling. and the winds, while not going to be, you know, 100 miles-plus, you can see gusts anywhere from 50 to 90 miles per hour. that takes down power lines and trees. so we're talking about, you know, significant power outages as well.
10:46 am
>> al, mother nature is quite cruel. i know a region of the country that could use a lot of rain right now, and slow moving, and it's obviously out west. erin mclaughlin had to move because of the air quality issues al, walk us through -- this air quality issue for the west coast, it's something they'll have to live with for quite some time >> absolutely. we are talking probably some of these fires could be weeks we're talking 3 million acres burned already first, third and fourth largest in california, and, chuck, i don't care what anybody is going to tell you. climate change is a factor in this the summer and fall, not just for california but the pacific northwest, hotter and drier. we've seen more extreme fire weather days california is 3 to 4 degrees warmer than usual. and look at these air quality alerts from central california all the way to the pacific northwest and the western plains we are talking about air
10:47 am
quality. it's a big problem, and it's going to continue. fire alerts through today. and the dry conditions with locally gusty winds going to keep those -- the dense smog advisories and the red flag warnings going as well, chuck. and again, yes, there is a forest management issue, but only 3% of california's lands where the fires are burning are under state control. 57% are under the federal government control >> an excellent and important point to make there. al roker, i think half the country over this week is experiencing what life is like with extreme weather right now climate change is not in the future it is here al roker, thank you, sir we'll be right back. cal ripken jr. and a consequence of the coronavirus that we're not talking abouent ough on the other side.
10:48 am
10:49 am
10:50 am
i'm a verizon engineer. and i'm part of the team building... ...a powerful 5g experience for america. it's 5g ultra wideband, and it's already available in parts of select cities.
10:51 am
like los angeles. and in new york city. and it's rolling out in cities around the country. with massive capacity. it's like an eight-lane highway compared to a two-lane dirt road. 25x faster than today's 4g networks. in fact, it's the fastest 5g in the world. from the network more people rely on. this is 5g built right. only on verizon. welcome back one of the serious health effects of the pandemic is how the coronavirus is keeping people from getting screened or treated for other ailments when the country shut down in march, so did many doctor offices and outpatient surgery centers, having patients push on the some procedures. this side effect will result in almost 10,000 excess deaths from breast and cole orectal cancer alone in the next decade they say that's a conservative
10:52 am
projection cal ripken jr. went through cancer treatment in the early day. we were also hoping to be joined by his doctor to discuss the -- but we're having a bit of a connection issue, so cal ripken jr., thank you for coming on boy, the difference between february and march, do you think you would have groan that screening in the midst of the pandemic >> i would have been scared for sure i know i hurried up my decision on getting the surgery in preparation. the hospitals were already making decisions on elective surgery and whether they were going to postpone things even though my surgery might have been considered six or eight months from now, it wasn't okay with me i pushed forward and was able to get it before the hospitals really did, and i didn't stay in the hospital i got in early early morning, had the surgery, got up, walked
10:53 am
around, then i got discharged at 6:30 they wouldn't have let me go unless i was healthy to go, but it's very rare in this particular surgery you don't stay overnight, but i didn't want anything to do with the hospital so i can totally understand that you're cal ripken junior, so you have more resources or perhaps sway what about for the average person that's a bit scared they don't have that much control. >> well, i didn't look at it that i had sway or influence or i had connections and all. i mean, i got diagnosed in the middle of february, the biopsy had to let heal before i could have my surgery. most people take longer to make that decision, but it just made me make that decision earlier, and the times for the surgery was there. so it all worked out i'm very lucky for this baseball guy. >> early detection, i can't tell you, we hear it all the time i take it that's what you're now wanting to be a spokesperson
10:54 am
for, is the importance of early detection. what have you learned about it >> well, my journey was i didn't have any symptoms. most times prostate cancer people don't have symptoms so the only way you catch it and catch it early is regular testing, regular bloodwork in my particular judgy, my was 2.1, 2.5, 2.9, but well within my range. i wasn't crazy about getting a biopsy in those conditions, but i had a urine test, very simple, prostate test, which gave me another tool in which to make that decision. when i failed that test, i said, okay, let's do the biopsy and found out i had prostate cancer. when the doctor tells you you have prostate cancer, it blows your world up, but the next word out of his mouth you're wanting to hear, i caught it early if you catch it early, you have a lot of options, the prognosis is good.
10:55 am
in my case it has a happy ending, cancer free. i can do anything now that i could do before. >> a delay of nine months, what could that have done -- what could that have increased -- what risks increase with you if you had delayed, say, until post-pandemic? >> i'll give you a scoop there is they said it's a slow moving cancer you can make this decision six or eight months down the road. i kept thinking why would you want to make that decision shall the pathology report comes behalf after you have the prostate taken out and there was one area that was growing pretty rapidly towards the end. so if it breaks through that casing, then it can spread to the rest of your body. that would have been a whole different ball game. my doctor said even if we waited six months, it could have been a different ball game and treatment altogether by having it done early, having it done right away, i potentially do have saved myself from breaking through the
10:56 am
daysing, and then it would have been a different treatment altogether >> well, again, you just hear the good news stories are always like yours it's the early detection if we could make one point here, early detection is everything, it sounds like any other recommendations? >> no. i would just say that a lot of us guys don't really go to the doctors unless you have a symptom. >> no. >> in this case, you need to go, listen to your wives, listen to your mom, all the women in your wife that are a lot smarter than us men go get your checkups go get a psa test, it's simple, it could save your life and be the difference in good news and bad news >> cal ripken jr., i have to say, it was good to have you on, an honor i appreciate you being a spokesperson for this important issue. >> thanks so much. thanks for allowing me to spread the word just a little bit. >> you go the it early detection, early detection, please, please please
