1:08 pm
a horror movie there was bombing everywhere the planes were above us and the tanks in maybe were shelling so we could move children along with women and men were screaming i have never seen anything worse than this in my life. quite a few developments to bring up to date on israel say's it is mussing troops along the gaza border and us called up $9000.00 reservists know that's speculation grows of an imminent ground invasion of the hamas run region so far israeli troops have not entered the enclave but. it's been firing into gaza overnight. i. the israeli army claims to have destroyed several kilometers of underground tunnels in the run its border with gaza during strikes in the early hours of friday morning the i.d.f. released footage showing a large scale operation involving grown forces tillery on 160 or craft according to a statement that would make it the largest round of strikes against gaza so far in
1:09 pm
this 4 day flare up these really are for some also been targeting the strip since monday after armed palestinian groups began launching rockets into israel this is video of israel's parliament that. israel has bombed more than 650 targets in there destroying several high rise buildings in the densely populated palestinian region the strikes killed dozens of militants this week including some top hamas commanders meanwhile across the border in israel . oh no then. the. or its orange were heard throughout several cities on thursday warning people of incoming fire from gaza including tel aviv from work force and. the sirens are sounding here in tel aviv i've just woken up and i'm just going to
1:10 pm
walk through the apartment to go outside and see what's happening so i'm just switching on the lights because it's about 1 o'clock in the morning and they're coming from that direction and there's usually a pause after the sirens and then an explosion as to where the rockets have landed this is not the direction one should be moving in actually most people are sleeping in sheltered rooms i wish i was sleeping in a shelter clean up until now because should be hunkering down but i just want to show you what it's like here when the rockets sound so if we go here. and you walk with me. you can also seeing the roads are completely quiet tel aviv is a busy city and only the roads are busy at this time there is absolutely no one or nothing on the streets now is the pause i told you about and then after a moment or so they should be an explosion and that will be the iron dome
1:11 pm
anti-missile defense system intercepting with a ruckus there it is there it is it's quite far away so it doesn't seem as if the rocket landed in tel aviv it sounded a little bit off to that direction. but for this reason at least 5000000 israelis are hunkering down in bomb shelters tonight while that sounds a bit loud that's coming from there so that's quite close to where we are i really shouldn't be out right now i should make my way back to the shelter room where i was sleeping up until a minute ago. policia r.t. tel aviv. well let's welcome live on to the program bari atwan in london a palestinian writer and commentator good to have your company from what we're witnessing not how difficult is it going to be to reduce tensions after over a 100 palestinians and nearly a dozen israelis have been killed in less than
1:12 pm
a week. i to be honest will be extremely difficult this time you know because. of casualties that amount of death and destruction is increasing. but i see the. past through a similar. tragedy before they sign some sort of agreement with their israeli foreign troops but the problem is every time israeli actually violate these kind of understanding these terms of a cease fire agreement so i think this time there israeli are using the iron fist and they are committing. world war crimes and there was. people innocent people on our people so i think this is a tragic to be honest girls are is a problem as i myself you know 150 miles only most crowded area and the word
1:13 pm
talk to all 1000000 people is squeezed there and they are under sanctions rugby seeds for the last 15 or so years and the coroner has but again and this by about the israeli are using besides using their warplanes and hitting them i think it is that there wouldn't be exaggerating a phase here gaza now is a concentration camp to be honest and to reach that so i think that the violence will continue i believe there is really. will continue until there is as you know of the international community to say and enough is enough to say to the israeli enough is enough you know this president have been negotiating with you all for the last one of his 7 years and the outcome. we've been touching on a lot of different aspects throughout the week. i'd like to talk to about one another perhaps a contributing factor to the scenes. we're witnessing yet another election was
1:14 pm
recently called off again by fatter in the palestinian territories younger generations have never had a chance to vote on their future is their frustration over that as well it is frustrating in all aspects and what their inquiries this kind of frustration with those that are used holy. wars and ramadan which is a holy month and also when they wanted to run the 7 families from syria to iraq there's a resilient so that then you know. there's really prevent any. to lose a limb should be included simply because there's an elite was there. the capital of israel so the addicks it's of this is that all these together you can you would kind of frustration the kind of absolutely i'm getting among the better feeling.
1:15 pm
really you're originally from dallas or do you do the people there do they support term us firing rockets israel does the every day man and woman on the street to they agree but what's happening there from home from girls or you know i spent most of my days actually affording my brothers my sisters my they're you know hoping that they are still see but the problem is you know people are starving literally starving most of the people actually 80 percent of the people are starving because of the israeli sanction on them because they're all there is nowhere to run away from that there could be with how mad. sorry to interrupt again but that's my point that the expense of firing so many rockets into israel could that money not be better spent on social and medical care for girls and. yes but you're absolutely hero you are absolutely right here but the problem is the problem is for how long
1:16 pm
those people will be under siege this is this is the most important thing why they are not treated like people why you know we heard president. biden saying that there isn't really have that i have to defend himself but he doesn't see actually the other side of minutes you know they don't want to have the right defense they won but i feel sort of bible that's the only thing they want they want all right or to live like a lot of people so this is we need international pressure we need to say today israeli is enough is enough you cannot actually between now and then go on the people in gaza there are innocent people there israeli are discriminated going to sleep in houses and it being in a water and. this is this is actually feel ok from a civilized country like is that honestly do not clearly something very close to your heart we do appreciate you coming on the program we do hope your family when
1:17 pm
you check in with the most you say you do are good and well abdel bari atwan palestinian writer and commentator thank you. pull the foreign ministry press officer michael freeman explained why it's so problematic for israel to start discussing a cease fire at this time. any ceasefire needs to be a serious there's no point in having a ceasefire that after 24 hours 48 hours all of a sudden i must start firing rockets again so we need to make sure that any cease fire is one that is going to last for a significant period of time hopefully many years and therefore we need to be in a position that hamas are really ready to take that and so we will continue our operation until we believe when we are convinced and come out say they are ready for a cease in in activity and cease of their rockets for a very long time even go back a few days is not so many many steps to deescalate in the response we got from calm
1:18 pm
us with rocket fire every time in that we stop when we get more rockets it only seems to be that we do the ceasing from us through the firing and this time we're going to make sure that any time there's any store they stop it for a very long time hamas for the last 15 years have been firing rockets nonstop over to israel they may be a break here for a couple of months or break that for a few weeks and that's not acceptable at comp be that millions of israelis conflict in normal life because hamas are threatening to shoot rockets that can slip that people when they're sleeping in their beds. well not a lot of point since among the 8 israelis have also died including a soldier killed by an anti-tank missile and a 6 year old child hit in a rocket attack. the widow of a british army veteran who took his own life more needs to be done to help those who are left traumatised after life on the front line 34 year old father of 2
1:19 pm
lunching or been suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder since leaving the army in 2008 his mental state been further strain since attending the funerals of each of his fallen comrades being killed in action in iraq he was found after collapsing in his home back in february of this year and died a short time later in a hospital his widow haley gulf shared what happened. and it popular because quite clearly if you look at the army. and he was diagnosed back. well when he was diagnosed it was that. it wasn't a break you got. it all right it's that should be you know none of our streets really even then obviously remembrance that i. book. before. it was really very. much suits them on this go as far as he went to sleep at night
1:20 pm
chats you want to come back strong and not want passing any open i was actually not kind you know how it is. now a pretty startling figures according to the campaign group veterans united against suicide 67 former servicemen took their own lives last year alone while in the past 2 decades there are almost 300 suicides among serving personnel during our period the u.k. and been involved in several conflicts including in iraq afghanistan and syria hilly gulf again thinks veteran simply are not getting the support needed. why these veterans are treated for me these girls are going to fight frank control and that combat these horrific memories that none of us will ever you know not comprehend what happened there but you know they're literally thrown a start would that be taught that are too complex there's no one that can deal with
1:21 pm
veterans and to me that's not good enough i have to sit 2 children down town talk to dad because he wasn't how it. and you know in years to come that's going to be difficult conversations with a half of my children but you know not that he could have been saved if it wasn't for the organizations out there how i could get. questions about president biden's health care and once again stalking fierce debate in the united states is after $124.00 retired military officer and an open letter clearing the white house has launched an all out assault against the constitutional rights the also questioned the president's fitness to rule but there's been plenty of pushback as well not least from the democrats took us through. well you watch the news so you know joe biden's the best bush sr with president biden he's demonstrated to the country what
1:22 pm
a difference. the change of presidents has made president biden is confronting this enormous loss directly and publicly for americans heal on a new front that something good joe biden is uniquely qualified to do as a joe biden giving america a message tonight and one i think that only this president president could give not the former one the thing is apparently the mainstream media doesn't speak for everyone shocking so what buttons does this letter have to pick with the current us administration well quite a few ranging from joe being too buddy buddy with beijing to killing off thousands of jobs with a big percentage of americans thinking that the ongoing border crisis is biden's fault. open borders jeopardize national security by increasing human trafficking drug cartels terrorist entry illegals are flooding our country we must reestablish
1:23 pm
border controls and continue building the wall and while the white house won't call it a crisis 10 times more migrants record last month at the border compared to a year ago border patrol says it's a crisis and people in texas are teaching their children to shoot here just in case but totally not a crisis though at least at the wool oh yeah didn't you hear biden the man who said there will not be another foot of wool construction on my administration is a surprise constructing ok not a wool but a barrier which apparently is very different but while biden's building back better on the border the letter claims that freedom of speech is crumbling down censoring speech and expression distorting speech spreading disinformation by government officials private entities and the media is a method to suppress the free flow of information a tyrannical technique used in closed societies which is strange because he
1:24 pm
probably has to be a president for all americans want americans except subscribers to paul or anyone who's ever owned a red cap or donald trump that banned and given all these mixed messages coming from the white house the letter and asking the question is biden up to the job the mental and physical condition of the commander in chief cannot be ignored he must be able to quickly make accurate national security decisions involving life and limb anywhere day or night now one simple video can prove that joe is not sleepy at all. but that the one star group of democrats who spied him to think about giving others the authority to launch a new. their attack not exactly a vote of confidence in the commander in chief so as you can see a fiery laughs with some serious allegations that have got people
1:25 pm
a bit angry that was why you bors and i was expecting some of it is very antidemocratic they are absolutely violating the norm to be a political they're being used for partisan purposes they're going against their constitutional oath all very good points very very good point that was 8 not raised last year when almost 500 national security needers decided to publicly dump truck on the current president has demonstrated he's not equal to the enormous responsibilities of his office he cannot rise to meet challenges large or small let me gas that was different isn't it always in a country like america has a leader who clearly has some sort of cognitive decline who is not evil to independently lead up to a lone can cause great instability in the global arena and
1:26 pm
a global leader one of the biggest problems we have is the mainstream media outlets in the united states who have not only there are no longer journalists there's no journalistic integrity within mainstream large media outlets in america and some of their allies and progeny they are have now become an arm of the democratic party in news coverage that because our american mainstream media outlets are propaganda arm for joe biden and the democrats when the news covers of the you know people are going to have to make up what that is and so they're going to come up with what are they trying to cover up it might make it much worse than it is or maybe better than it is and that will cause us so much more instability so many more risks and that's that's what's dangerous dangerous to the citizens of this country it's dangerous to people throughout the world because of the role that united states is played in the world. things that the u.s. army is now is seeking to appeal to a new younger generation it's released an unlimited recruitment campaign featuring

1:29 pm
left things that this is how you appeal to people who are elegy bt the average elegy beatty person just wants to be treated like anybody else and a lot of my friends who are you know gay or lesbian they see things like this and it comes across as an enduring it seems like whoever made this ad is more interested in appealing to gender studies majors in college rather than someone who is actually ready and willing to fight and die for their country i think for any job the number one consideration should be whoever is most qualified should be the one who is getting that position and a lot of these diversity initiatives there unfortunately do place things like skin color sexuality or gender of of actual qualifications and i think for people of any race any gender or any sexuality the main motivating factor for doing something like joining the military should be the desire to serve your country and your fellow citizens not because you think it's it's going to be
