2:10 am
a massive wrong because when ashley and you get older you have a machine michelle mone yes i am just like outside your polygon ask your money canister don't have by very makin a machine come by and listen i mean the production i called the cops it was like you sent us that we should stay in the houses like you should stay in the house again but there are armed settlers around the neighborhoods like screaming death to the arabs in order to like you i don't know you know the police is taking care of the girls like you i see them be obvious quoting them and then suddenly the supervisor. takes the forms like this is what it is we don't need you ok and goodbye and the younger not like like the 911 hunger up on me tell me nothing hasn't called the police again but like occurring knight me he has relived the same terror every night this week now he stays in guarding his home with the help of his arab neighbors and what about the jews who live next door if you have in in your
2:11 am
neighbor from the same building as you that 2 days ago you helped him change his tires and 3 days ago he helped you carry your groceries up up stairs ok and suddenly he's pointing out to writers to say this is his this is a jewish car burn it or this is a jewish apartment throw a mullet of bottle into it i don't know that trust is a very fragile thinks one thing when it's once it's been broken so. gaining trust again for years the central israeli city of lard has been home to religious jews and arabs neighbors often living side by side in the same apartment block but the deaths on monday of an arab resident. at the hands of jews who were we're not acting out of self-defense depending he has fanned the flames of frustration on the streets into something much bigger something branded a nazi program by the city's mayor with for the poor marks of the civil war that
2:12 am
was was. was was. you know that 99.9 percent of the people who say coexistence and we don't jews don't know we don't know nothing about us when we don't have that image for housing when you have 300 demolished houses when our crime rate is the biggest and the police doesn't even give a damn about what is happening in a low place they just come eat almost for like 15 minutes to get that exotic amazing things like the music means what is the coexistence and caring about each other came to lots of live in a community of people who are different from me that is definitely part of my ideology of how i want to live and how i want to raise my kids i wanted to be not uniform. it's interesting it's beautiful it's colorful it's
2:13 am
great. if it's peaceful right now they're barely tolerating each other the streets are quiet soldiers patrol the neighborhoods and nighttime curfew is in place the question lingers if this can happen in what was supposed to be a model mixed jewish out city what hope is there for the rest of the country i'm very worried i'm not personally afraid for myself i am extremely afraid for the very very delicate. fabric of community and reality was created here that's being torn 1st of all you have. 78000000 people you and your only are they really want to go exist the only 5 weeks series and the other ones are separated but you think you can buy a house and to have you for example. it's fair to be naive to look at the facts just like much of the city the relationship between jews and arabs in knowledge has
2:14 am
gone up in flames and hopes of the story in peace not only here but across the country is fading quickly porsena r.t. . israeli foreign ministry press officer michael freeman told as why it's problematic for israel to start discussing laying down arms. any ceasefire needs to be a serious since there's no point in having a cease fire that after 24 hours or 48 hours all of a sudden i must stop 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 can leave and we are you doing to them from us a they are ready for a cease in in activity and cease of their rockets for a very long time you can go back a few days is rocks at many many steps but deescalate the response we got from
2:15 am
hamas was rocket fire every time i mean that we stop when we get more rockets it only seems to be that we do the c.c. and hamas to fire and this time we're going to make sure that any time there's any store that will stop it for a very long time come us for the last 15 years it's been firing rockets nonstop over to israel then maybe a break here for up the front so break this for a few weeks and that's not acceptable to comp be that millions of israelis content of a normal life because hamas are threatening to shoot rockets i can switch that people when they're sleeping in their beds. the leader of the palestinian national initiative party mostafa bought a good police the palestinian people have been subjected to persecution and deprivation for decades. this is the west bank would not or could stop short of israel would be pulled out a little book test and divorce through it and those you can see those that are in music this. form of violence against the book the civilian population while they are firing at it is writing and being responded to by israel by the idea not of it
2:16 am
started with somebody do this you house. and then beats you and then sure but in terms of the current i don't know if you look for me and i don't know but in terms of the current violence you can go back and not directly but we can go back to adult sites that if you are on the side. you have not only given that you have the idea of. people living in their homes we look you buy them for 55 years and when you practice our system. and one day i will defend themselves you damn food what's happening nor you should give the system of occupation this is our kind of. practice that against the palestinian people one of the fire missiles are being fired when people are hungry they need medicines money is being spent on gaza has been under siege for 16 years
2:17 am
israel is depriving people from the possibility of having clean water and 94 percent of the work that in gaza is the point. because that's a people do not have enough medications because there's a cancer patients going to get out. because the president is that i was there but i didn't ask for them but i don't watch movement is what it is there but i think that's what i'm the basic disability having not about infrastructure the problem is occupation the file and right now with so many palestinians dying israelis as well what can be done right stuff or to stop the violence and get back to living i think that we are out of this is that is simple. that is what it is that i must stop its occupation of and of the people is there and what's allowed palestinians finally to be free and in all independent state there are only 2 possible options one option as well because in his love us the of that on with occupation without
2:18 am
a question without persecution or let's live to got that in once the former democratic state with equal rights where i was you know would be considered equal to any person else. ok watching out international long going to be back in just a few moments with more news here that. the end of the spanish empire the end of the british empire the end of the roman empire and you have some similarities and differences but the. talk about the rise of one nation in this case china and the fall of the ruling at the time. we've got all those kinds of things happening right now the people who are least informed about this are the americans themselves because the cable news network of mars the corporate news it's not in their interest to actually prepare

ambitious target to vaccinate 70 percent of all adults in the u.s. by july 4th. have you heard about these things called covert vaccines yeah apparently they're all the craze right now i mean i would've heard about them unless i was constantly bombarded with calls to get vaccinated i mean seriously how many people do they think live under rocks we get it you want to get backs unaided but the advertisements are getting out right annoying and as if there weren't enough of them left over and mcdonald's have partnered with the white house to spread the message even further a white house that at this point seems kind of desperate lives and over will now offer free trips to vaccinations sites while mcdonalds will bombard their customers with we can do this coffee cups and stickers as well as a giant billboard on times square and if all of that doesn't convince the public to come to their senses politicians are ready to lay down their careers for the cause
2:21 am
there's a lot of good reasons to get vaccinated but for some of them you know if you need another one go it actually to share your life to vote against me in the next election. i'm going to get it done all these attempts have had some effect over the last 5 months there have been significantly less coverage back seen skeptics but there are still huge segments of the population which are far from convinced and the media has been trying anything they can suppress way these people bombard them with ads appeal to their human decency ridicule them in comedy sketches everything just seems to backfire. on the clintons buildings and welcome to legal who take we didn't show where i tried to convince my family to take the cold with banksy but politicians won't sleep and so all these people are not related so i guess we'll just wait and see what other crazy strategies they come up with to convince a bunch of people so put
