8:07 am
civilian casualties and blaming her mass for using people as human shields and yahoo added he sees no clear end in sight to the violence meanwhile armed groups and guards are including how mass continue to target israel with rockets being the southern city of ashkelon in recent focus there a synagogue was damaged and numerous cars were destroyed casualties though were reported and in east jerusalem a pair of palestinian rammed his car into israeli police on sunday injuring 6 officers the driver was immediately shot dead after what police called a deliberate attack us later praised the driver let's talk more about all of this with the israeli political analyst let's join this appreciate your time thanks for coming on let's just start with what the prime minister netanyahu said he said look there be no ceasefire at this stage why is he taking that decision why is a cease fire not in everybody's interest. because it really began it's there are
8:08 am
the elements this will push those an achievable goal to win this war i world. war 2 may. as we've also been. this war and is the only reason to continue to be out of. here though. netanyahu seems to think this a carry on for a matter of days and then stopped but from what you just said that's certainly not going to happen but why do you think it will just carry on and will not play act as perhaps netanyahu expects. he would carry a lot of pinning. and to it like it was in order for the cycle we are repeating ourselves again and again the same result so this bloodshed with the same crimes leading nowhere now right now the i.d.f. is proving. to be minimal price so that.
8:09 am
what should the international community beginning to think and why hasn't it been able to act more strongly. it was the international community doesn't care enough. the initial community should an end to this. because it's not about c. . it's about this siege in which you are now leading indicator for 14 years now since the core issue for anything you have but not all of the. community led by the united states seems to be quite. willing to. wake up. with this peace agreement between us for another few months or a year and again in the same conditions bring liz. how
8:10 am
much. a sideline to all the boys that on buy side i know a lot of attention is on each trial because that's the country gets causing most civilian deaths for the moment but at the same time hamas has fired and other militant groups to fight thousands of missiles into israel and that shouldn't be forgotten. so the supporters knows who mentioned 9. i mean between israel and hamas not the terms of capabilities and. just we have to face it there is the seeds which will still play. 'd and then the hamas will terrible mistakes by the way then maimed there is the hamas. the people of gaza because those attacks we need to any improvement in their life. and the whole let's remember that's the biggest tribal war come out of that it's
8:11 am
really proved to begin its use we know sublimely any protection. that. says we tinkered with while you think about it it's an interesting point what's the motivation for hamas to continue this action when we see the results. no 1st of. all i'm now much stronger than the. military. we. only can do something called the police didn't. openly neutralize been marginalized. since but for the 20. year old. so from their point of view they. did the resistance.
8:12 am
so here i must remind you. and these weapons. there was care less about. it looks like when they don't they benefit something else. ok getting it we really appreciate your insight into all of this we're going to leave it as an act that was getting heavy and israeli political analyst thanks for your time softening if you're. well correspondent points les spoke to a former i.d.f. officer about his experiences in gaza and more chamar anything about the current tensions. when i'm seeing what's happening now in the gaza border it's killing me from the inside because you know i'm thinking. about what i read through and about the friends i lost fighting for this concrete for our robes and jews in the
8:13 am
same way. i'm asking myself sometimes if it will all to last part of your hands to the last part of your body the last part of your soul if this situation will continue and i'm uncertain myself every single time that yes as if she spent 6 years in the israeli army 3 of them in gaza when he commanded 130 combat soldiers and i.e.d. improvised explosive device ended his service and almost his life it was 6 in the morning ideas tanks were waiting to return to his really territory and because of sniper threats xiv advanced alone to open the gate separating gaza and israel the id blew up in his face i opened my eyes and you know the pain filled my body and i medically noticed that my left hand was missing there was blood everywhere around and i remember myself trying to reach and apply pressure on the room but nothing
8:14 am
happened and i looked on my right arm i realized exactly why it was also almost disconnected lying on the flaming hot soil hanging all small pieces of skin and flesh for days it was touch and go no one thought he'd pull through $700.00 surgeries and nearly a year of intensively habitation has lift him with 10 percent movement in his left arm and a prosthetic arm on his right now he's taken it upon himself to make sure the world understands what it's like for israeli soldiers fighting in gaza i risked my life so many times just to make sure that no civilians from the palestinian side really hurt until very complicated operations i risk my soldiers we walk. exposed completely instead of send sending a tank or a missile from a plane just to make sure that no child or no innocent people will be on display
8:15 am
a place in the gaza border here and recent video of these maybe only stopping a strike after seen children playing in the area looking for another way to be a bit mad but i'm going to bring in a political economy. and members a 14 year old child riding a donkey and approaching him and his soldiers they yielded him a piece of not to come any closer after we decided not to shoot this child at all he ran away and the donkey was close to us and it was explode. in. such a powerful way that it. destroyed completely the friends we will relocate that we was under shelters and not to me and not my soldier was harmed by this incident if israel won considering
8:16 am
only the power of the army. could be vanished in 24 hours but we're not doing it we're not doing it just because we know that many civilians that live there i want to say as a former commander in the i.d.f. to the citizens of gaza we love you we want you to live a normal life you need to know that your leadership hamas leadership making all the problems as contrasted to tease continue to heat up the prospect to turn into normal life seems in small ways as a police here that's aliya. well we also i spoke to a rice that he previously but the israel defense forces and a state of hamas makes it impossible for the i.d.f. to avoid civilian casualties the idea of standing orders the. military
8:17 am
targets now not everyone will know what the target was because sometimes it's the intelligence information but there have to probe issue on attacking civilian targets even when they attack a military target they do everything they can to verify that the minimum number of civilians or no civilians preferably is a miss and unfortunately because hamas is placed all of its military installations in the middle intentionally in the middle of the civilian life of gaza it's incredibly difficult they create an intentional dilemma either we go back which obviously what they're looking for or what we don't fire back you would see the tragic judgment of the latter that incidental tragic death for hamas it's a win with i know we don't have that all you'll show long pictures in both. meanwhile major european cities have witnessed private palestinian protests with
8:18 am
thousands demanding that the attacks on gaza stop some demonstrators did burn israeli flags and 3 stones and bottles police responded to take gas and water cannons and a number of arrests were made. i. was the hour. now another news hour this afternoon france's top cop has slammed retired officers for asking for more help for the police just under 100 have signed a petition to the president asking that stations be protected from halls of mosque individual special events as the story. this is another warning of
8:19 am
a security threat faced by france by what's described as being a violent minority we've they keep everywhere that's the warning from around a 100 retired police officers that we've had warnings in the last few weeks from retired generals and also from currently serving soldiers that there is a grueling civil war here but what's different on this occasion is unlike back then when the majority didn't give names didn't leave their ranks the police officers with this letter this petition to president not going to have not just signed then they had also the ranks of the chief before they left office they calling for effect information to be able to recall the country so they the authority of the state is undermined by fallen minority laws are no longer applied in the last 7 years of the republic the increase in attacks and the violence directed against guardians of the public peace demonstrate rejection of our republican values our
8:20 am
customs and our model of society in entire sectors of our nation that are actually not just highlights 2 recent attacks that saw the deaths of police officers in graham lake which was being treated as a terror attack and also just off the bat in avignon where a police officer was shot as you try to stop a drug raid but it also talks about the continuing attacks the open attacks on police officers generally on their cars and also police stations which it says is now becoming a regular occurrence to. 2 2 look for. oh. well the for to. in is calling for reform of the penal code in front saying it was
8:21 am
the sentence is to reflect the severity of the crimes being committed and not only has it gone and more than 40000 signatures to date it's also attracted the attention of police is top officer here in france this is said to be true who is unhappy with this letter from this retired police officer saying that he does more to damage the institution of the police than it does to strengthen it and he's talked to them about the idea of looking at what the government is implementing at the moment saying that these measures should make things better for the police he's perhaps referring there to the controversial global security law which is being passed by parliament ariens but it's not yet been ratified into law the so-called seat separatism rule and the fact that the prime minister has staked in the last week or so said that he would be looking for tougher sentences against those who attack and kill police officers but despite that of course this reflects
8:22 am
a warrior issue this is now the 3rd time in the last month or so that the warnings about the security right here wrong this time coming from retired police officers previously soldiers and retired general so really you can imagine there is a lot of consternation immediately easy at the moment about what we can do to perhaps stem the tide of people deciding that they not doing enough to protect the security services. now the international energy agency has clashed with joe biden's to you know whether the u.s. should spend trillions of dollars accelerating a plane energy transition it does come as the watchdog issues a report the questions just how great the country's policy actually is with more his. if we take drastic action right now to address the climate disaster for you see the nation in our world right now 2050 the united states will be 100 percent.
8:23 am
to me with a new mission. of the world's clean energy words that probably sent to turn into a green tizzy and it does sound great wind turbines solar panels electric cars a green new wild the problem is green energy not so green i'm not so clean at least that's the conclusion of a new report by a top and a g 8 policy at pfizer and it's a bits of blow to the countries on the climate bandwagon who have already committed trillions to the fight. the building blocks of a clean energy future a mineral z. i'm talking things like nickel cobalt and i'm talking a whole bunch of them because if you will buy it and thought that the average car on the street was a gaza while introducing green energy machines typical electric car require 6 times the mineral inputs of a conventional car and a norm sure wind plant requires 9 times more mineral resources than
8:24 am
a gas fired power plant so to feed this we need to mine more a lot will the report alleges that the future president wants will see jamaal and explode by 2014 lithium supply will rise by 4200 percent graphite by 2500 these are some serious numbers on the wild card catch up but even if we do have enough it will be a very insecure future why well more than 3 quarters of all critical minerals lie in the hands of 3 produces that's a whole lot of pressure on very few sources what if there was flooding or a war the supply chain shuts down and what if you fall out with one. this 3 produces something probably the washington's mind is on since china mines more than 60 percent of raw 'd minerals that's one trade war you just can't win.
8:25 am
but even if we started building the mines to match the rising demand tomorrow the earliest we'd see actual results is $2835.00 the same year that might imagines we'll have 100 percent carbon free electricity an innocent mistake or a political promise to please his party and put in the voters and i wonder what those voters would think if they knew the price of that guilt free electricity mining and mineral processing o'flynn generates toxic and ready active materials these can leak into groundwater causing major health and safety issues including fatalities environmental impacts including biodiversity loss and social disruption due to land use change weather depletion and pollution waste related contamination and air pollution like i said green energy not exactly what it says on the box. and what do the minerals for biden's utopia come from if we take an electric car
8:26 am
what does it need a battery what's the core ingredient of a battery lithium why do you find lithium and kopel but who is getting your kobold. the real frontier of the battery revolution is in the unregulated coal mines of the d.r. sea where children as young as 7 work in perilous conditions a couple of dollars a day to work in narrow tunnels at risk of collapse it's an acceptable for businesses to shrug their shoulders about their supply chains consumers deserve to know that their cars are not powered by human rights abuses the mining of many minerals is mired in slave labor allegations which will only get worse when demand increases a hell of a price for someone to drive around with a carbon free conscience in a tesla so going green is a great slogan it's definitely a great way to get you some voters and it's great p.r. for administration that wants healing but dig
8:27 am
a little deeper and biden's clean future has got a whole lot of little secrets. there will be heard from jim it's charlie boy who does say that the report leads to more questions than answers. the biggest expense you can that sort of economic perspective that i can see is that if you're running a large business in renewable energy and you come across the stumbling blocks for example or lack of supply or implosion issues you can have to out quite a lot of stuff and that's the core all around the world in order to get out of these obstacles because richard already looks at these country still make money one way or another so it's not it's no use governments like the u.s. saying now i'm so right rick will you not sign it's. manual energy and now 510 years down the line mr story i've got the money anymore so i think these problems will be resolved one way or the out the other we have to get close to these to these targets but it's going to need government support rather than just so short
8:28 am
term gesturing which which is what i'm seeing at the market. now so far halmos one and a half 1000000000 coronavirus back scene doses have been given to people around the world but there are big disparities between countries and is happening to as problems are mounting for one of the main supplies canada is now considering giving away unwanted supplies of the astra zeneca vaccine that after the job fell from favor into its provinces and indonesia is pausing distribution to have a batch of the jab after the death of the young man now in the latest episode going underground when talk to scientists saying developed the astra zeneca vaccine among other matters a tween hill explains why he thinks reports of blood clots are emerging. i don't know what's happening yes there's a huge amount of research going on my own you need both of our own picture and the spike up to show. us it's
8:29 am
a very interesting though it appears to be emerging just in the last few weeks the 2nd dose of vaccine as people have to as you know doesn't seem to do that's. a clue as to what's going on i juicing so that we will be able to address this hopefully in the coming months either way it's reducing the dose of luck scene or getting a different route or some other maneuver that serve really immediately oil why does it not work so well against a south african variant do we know why because these initial trials and phase are in would earn or sign off on the chinese one was good your one novak's johnson and johnson don't seem to be effective against a south african variant as well as much bigger than a very small trial 2000 equal out of the 60000 trials were not exceeding which i stood in south africa and all we were able to do was to get a small number of cases miles to see so what was measured in that small south
8:30 am
african trial was protection against mild disease which was not statistically significantly presaged but the numbers which was small so very much. washing out a thank you company this afternoon we're back again at the top of the. i mash and i can see how we're going underground with a final lockdown edition is here in the u.k. draconian measures are raised even further which was johnson but now.
