11:04 pm
right now, conferences considering in other words, $60000000000.00 a package to ukraine. if, if the american people realize ukraine is losing and will lose this war, they're losing, for a number of reasons, nothing to do with congress. they've gotten plenty of aid from around the world. the fact is that they are not as well trained as the russians. of course, at this point, they're conscripting an elderly man and disabled people to fight because they have almost no soldiers left. which is another reason they're losing um is nothing to do with congress. but again, this is just propaganda to try to convince congress to do something and send the more money. it obviously shows this desperation, right? you create needs, the us more than the us need to crate and to come up empty habit is going to be
11:05 pm
politically devastating. for the leaders in these countries spied num forces it is good, it is facing the election in november. these put his presidency on the line for ukraine. a number of other leaders in europe have done the same. they decided they can't give up. now the earlier this week, more than 50 civilians including children, were killed a nighttime idea of stripes on russell, according to the guys of health. the ministry is row claims that use the assault as cover to rescue 2 hostages. you might find the following footage, disturbing. the the, the, [000:00:00;00]

11:07 pm
that's 2 more hostages. hold on to 134 still to got. israel remains committed to the pledge, but there will be no one left behind. we will continue applying military pressure to release the hostages by full supply possible and to create the conditions for the release. otherwise, the idea finishing batch is really security agency, had been working on the move for several weeks. the operation was postponed twice and started at 1 am local time on monday. as soon as the opportunity popped up, as the army says, it's less than an hour. and as a result, 2 hostages were indeed rescued and released. these real says 2 soldiers have been wounded from these really side as well. the country is air force is conducted heavy strikes in rough uh to provide cover and support for the troops. the hostages were then taking to in is really hospital and their condition is reportedly stable. also pensions of brewing between israel and egypt to the moving large scale operation in rough, fine,
11:08 pm
southern parts of the gas was 3 things real and see the reason urgent need claiming the rossville full battalions, also not stationed in that area that have to be eliminated. these will also believes the rossville, dozens of tunnels that connect gather to age of 10 to collapse them. israel needs to intensified smoke through efforts. the problem is that at least 1200000 gallons are currently located in that area. and israel still does not have any clear plan on where to move them or how to protect them from being heard. these really get them in spokesperson earlier getting a very vague answer to that, claiming the res, plenty of space in gaza for people to really move. let's take a listen. how long are you going to give them to leave? and where are they going to go? you still haven't explained where they're going to go, given that so much is garza now is lots of as well there. open spaces in gaza. there are places where it is possible to set off tempting compliments so that
11:09 pm
civilians can get out of homes way and not allow from us to use them as human shields. while it takes a rather surprise and cynical statement by and it's really official, given diag conditions, people are health and here's what the you, when reports about the situation in southern parts of the gaza strip right now in rough uh, southern gaza there a 1400000 people, tons of kilometers of people living in the streets in plastic, make shift shouts as a military offensive in the middle of these completely exposed vulnerable people. is a recipe for disaster. i'm all must be coming wordless. the question now is whether israel launches or there is to launch its large scale operation and rough phone. we heard clear statements about preparations earlier this week. prime minister benjamin netanyahu has ordered the idea of to get ready for actions. the request was also sends to elaborate a plan for potential evacuation of guidance from the southern part of the 3, but it's really is also hesitating searing to n. your ages,
11:10 pm
official cairo's as any potential operation at its folders will put relations with israel to a challenge or a t spoke to an official involved in the mediation process were confirmed that indeed the relations between the 2 could potentially crack in case of the operation . israel's allies in america also warning against the moods while some mass claim that the operation in the south of gaza will stop all negotiations. and that means that the fates of 134 hostages still remain in ink of to between gaza will be unclear. we are now at 2, it's on a boat, the crossing between israel and egypt with dozens of protest. her, as you can see behind me, came to try to prevent too many hearing aids from going to the gaz. us 3 of it is he had another riley of these kind to organize in recent weeks. they were stopped twice really police a bit before this check point. they left their cars and walked here shortly on monday. by the way, there was another similar gathering planned as kept him shut long. crossing another
11:11 pm
major entry of the age to the palace keenan and played some 50 kilometers from here . his really forces blocked the road, leading to that check point, explaining the area was declared and military zone and didn't to live protest or is on media to pass through. most people believe food, walter, medical and shelter supplies sent from these really territory go directly to have mass supporting the militant group is rarely spied to the gainst, in gaza. so support over more than 10000 trucks and to the guy who has 3, carrying around 140000 tons of food and water, about 14000 tons of medical aid and also stream really needed equipment and materials for shelter is the un says more than 85 percent of gas is $2300000.00 population have been internally displaced in full months. all these really offensive with more than a 1000000. now, crowding around the rough up in southern parts of this 3 for israel is now when
11:12 pm
intensive military activity raising concerns about the safety. of course, all civilian guidance there. thousands of taken to the streets of tennessee to protest the mentioned y'all, governments handling of the war in guns a wall calling for new elections and these ro, as the discontent, as mountain in these relas, some hostages, remain in her mouth. hans, while the war on gab, so rate is on protest as are also demanding a new ceasefire. and prisoners will deal with the policy and militant, is there any police scrambled to break up crowds blocking a main tell of
11:13 pm
a city street in jerusalem. hundreds right outside the prime ministers residence, shouting similar demands. here's what some of the demonstrators told us any time i'm here because after experiencing the terrible catastrophe we went through in october, it cannot be that this government remains in power without asking the people what they want. and we want the elections here, and now our economic security is dropping. prices went up by tens of percentages in the past year. our credit rating has dropped, which means damage for years to come. this government needs to go home, period. so if things are only getting worse with everything that's happened since the time and it's been time to take them out years ago, every day we are waiting is to discover this trying as well, literally in terms of people dying and also the fear of as well the value of the
11:14 pm
country people are leaving, people are dying. what else can happen that would need to prove that this is a dangerous government, the worst government, the government is running. it's very important for me to bring down to this government because as they are damaging the country, everything they do is for their own benefit, their political seat. and the only way, in my opinion, to bring them down is, was protests. that's why i'm here. despite these ready public's outrage bring to bring the thing out claims elections of the last thing, the country needs is cabinets unanimously to get that it will not submit to any pressure when it comes to permanent records mention of protest. i use the soft of israel categorically rejects international edicts on a permanent arrangement with the palestinians. such an arrangement will be achieved only through direct negotiations between the sides. israel will continue to oppose unilateral recognition of a palestinian state recognition, such as that following the massacre of october 7th will grant a major prize to terror
11:15 pm
a prize that has not been seen before and will prevent any future peace arrangement dot com. c. r is open, i lot is running peace activist and head of the true state coordination says benjamin that you know, is doing everything possible just running these ready, right, clean alliance and avoid early elections state. it's very clear that they, these are the government a doesn't want to have a new election because according to all of the boards, it's going to lose any lie and dramatically and the, and they've been the gun sweetie, renae in midland, len slide the victory. and we'll take over that then. yeah, del sol, nathaniel, always not aiming to. these are the public. he doesn't care what will be the result of the pause because he doesn't want to go for an eli election. he doesn't want to even ask the public what, what they think about his government. therefore, these, doing whatever he can, you know that the strength is a writing a correlation and not to allow and your election to be comp. and,
11:16 pm
and this is the reason why is giving away all these really interest to the extreme right, to reinforce as a, with these home government. and this is the, the reason why so many people we go out to demonstrate against this government. because they see that their policy is not the right policy for the state of phase when it's due, right? for policy, for the past and within the hour it needs college. the reason when i'm president this claim, the western sanctions mechanism is in effective and empty as old 12 packages added limits of impact on the russian economy. the congress, judy declined by 3.6 percent in 2023 outpacing both the e u and u. s. according to official fios and economic slums, and some european countries are a testament to the serious domestic challenges they face actually contributed rachel austin brings us more on that story. as the wes team, unity is really sticking together just like drowning victims. then clinging to each other, after germany's own national statistics office forecasted
11:17 pm
a 2 year economic slump in the wake of a 0.3 percentage point dropping g d p last year, saving high energy and living costs. now it's the u. case turn to drop into recession. also with a 0.3 percent drop in g d p at the end of last year, that was even greater than what economists had even predicted. all according to official figures, the finance minister blames high inflation. so the cost of food and energy that spiked when europe decided to slack financial sanctions and constraints on its own . cheap gas supplier, russia. but hey, there's an obvious solution for europeans looking for a more reasonable. busy cost of living. so i'm not exactly current on the prices, but here's what it cost to moscow. $647.00 roubles, so that is exactly 7 dollars,
11:18 pm
7 dollars and 5 cents. i think in for that we got to cheeseburgers large fries, large colla a coax, knock off, and a piece of chocolate cake. so we weren't guessing what this would cost. however many here's and united states buy groceries and we didn't pay any sensitive causes . we're just putting in the car what we would actually eat over a week. and we all came in around 400 bucks, about 400 bucks. and there was a $104.00 us here. and that's when you start to realize that audiology maybe doesn't matter as much as you thought, corruption. if you take people standard of living, any tank is true filled, and crime and inflation. and they literally can't buy the groceries they want. at that point, maybe it matters less what you say, whether you're a good person or a bad person, you're reckoning people's lives in their country. and that's what our leadership done to us. and coming to a russian grocery store, the heart of people and seeing what things cost and how people with it will
11:19 pm
radicalize you against our leaders. that's how i feel any way radicalized where i'm making any this up, by the way, at all. so yeah, your opinions to just go do their shopping and dining in the most sanction country on earth. the same nation that the countries currently dipping under water into recession said that they were going to drown as far back as 2022, a transition between good. the russian economy is collapsing. booting is to get the money, but you can hardly spend it. and time is not working for russia, it is working against russia. nobody wants to invest in russia anymore. put in, con, keep this up for much longer. this war will eventually come to an end by shipping the russian economy to the core. and we are in the process of doing so seems of all focusing on all the ways that they were going to implode, the russian economy, these leading european countries mostly just ended up showing how it's done on themselves, is dramatically bad. we can't go on like this. overall, we need to invest more in this country again and get economic growth going. now
11:20 pm
that the wind is really blowing across the country, it becomes clear, but we have failed to address and the last few days kids. wow, that sounds like good news actually. maybe now that matter for a quote, wind blowing across the country as a german economy minister, cause it could power up the german industry and prevent the overseas exit as to countries that actually have a reliable energy supply. well, the same economy minister was busy bragging about reducing his own shower times. contrast all that with what russian president vladimir putin has been saying about russia's economy, maybe schools last year was economic growth was higher than expected. precious gdp increased by 3.5 percent according to our calculations and by 3.6 percent according to the latest data. this has happened in the world average globally just figured i would just 3 percent economies of developed countries are growing by an average of 1.5 percent. all of this is in line with the international monetary farms own
11:21 pm
upgraded assessment of the russian economy for 2024 and upward revision of another 0.6 percent growth over its october 2023 projected resulting in a project and 2.6 percent growth forecast for russia in 2024 and a 1 point one percent growth forecasts for 2025. specifically the i m f site side military spending and domestic consumption. so 2 things that are totally the result of western actions against russia. whether it's making weapons used in ukraine, against nato, back forces, or sanctions boosting russian domestic consumption and production. so it looks like the west brand plan to destroy the russian economy. is it a bit of a snag? and this recession stops, seems to be quite contagious. even japan has been hit losing its spot as the world's 3rd largest economy in enabling jeremy, even in its pitiful state right now to move up in the 3rd place behind the us and
11:22 pm
china. as for the u. k. well, it's now reporting a 2nd and consecutive quarterly decline says technically a recession with a greater economic contraction, then anticipated apparently no one to task the british prime minister though c lee is the law from a loves, movies i saw on down the road is yeah, he has a full false journey to the confirmation of recession exposed as a government, as a prime minister, completely out of touch with the realities on the grounds. a government that for too long has, from the economic failure with complacency,
11:23 pm
content to be the manages of decline. especially soon claims that he has a plan, but the plan is not working. he claims that the economy has tons, aqona, but the economy is shrinking. he claims he doesn't want to take us back to square one. we are going backwards. the prime ministers claims our ins foxes. oh, come on now, no need to worry. the experts have it all under control. over at the european central bank in charge of maintaining price stability and low inflation, they're apparently busy fighting over whether staffers are committed enough to drinking the green koolaid the top official over their report of the has the backing of e. c. b president. interesting. i gather in telling employees who are ardent practitioners of climate change religion that they're just not wanted there. that's according to
11:24 pm
a new report from political. so while the ship is struggling to stay afloat, those over at the home and in a position to help correct the course, have apparently been otherwise occupied, squabbling over the size of its carbon footprint. as a recession booms large of the year of mass purchased a sweeping the continents with farmers fed denouncing the ease, stifling agricultural policies. hundreds of foreigners flocked to the tale and capital in protest. that's as great fun as drove the tractors through one of these largest wind producing cities loudly proclaiming that the industry is dead. large scale demonstration also took place in germany as frankfort protest. this gary post is demanding that the ease policies are against the people. here's what we heard from those at the rallies. federal government runs on it. if we'd have to feed the world, then why should we have bonded production? these are the answers they should give us. there is, it is honest at the damages this country demo created. we're here to reclaim our
11:25 pm
rights because we will not be unemployed. and to given answers, we will be here. our politicians must understand this. we are here and we will not leave the us inc. signs on global economic development appears to be waning. our 2 looks on our blackboard discusses this and more with world renowned economist jeffers sacks. in the latest episode of worlds apart, you can watch the full program on our team, dot com. but here's a quick preview. the washington is paralyzed. they've got corrupted by money. it got corrupted by lobbying, it got corrupted by political advisors who think that the idea is spin, not thinking, you know when, when do present good news. a interview with tucker carlson came out. the dominant reaction was too long. it's rambling, you know, because their attention span is down to 10 seconds or 30 seconds. it's like
11:26 pm
watching people who cannot think. you look at the major newspapers new york times are washington post, how they covered the interview. it was all on the most superficial questions. oh, did, tucker carlson, intervene, should've done this. was the opening history, rambling and so forth. not what was said, what was analyzed? is it true? how should the west respond? none of that because there's no thinking going on. it's a game. what allows the american society of to be so resilient and to taking so many expenses without clear returns and without much of a policy change. because i have to tell you that, i think in russia it will not pass the russians would not have been so live in. well, it's interesting, you know, 1st america is an extremely rich countries. it really is a rich country average of uh, average income, $70000.00 per person. so
11:27 pm
a lot of money. so they're squandering a lot of it right now. can you imagine a country this rich i and it's like in the soviet union and the in the last years the life expectancy has been going down. basically for the last 10 years in the united states, we have addictions, we have inside the rise of the depression. i mass obesity. so many problems. it's because the social fabric is not the only thing together. even though there's well the that's all for me for now head to a website, archie dot com for more news coverage and analysis. i'm a nationwide josh. my colleague, charlotte defense is at the top of the hour with fresh updates. stay with us,

11:30 pm
the hello. i'm the miller chan. you are tuned into modus operandi. a seldom discussed us base in syria against attacks leaving 3 west service members dead. suddenly, american mainstream media attention turns to syria after a long pause afterwards in change efforts failed. we'll discuss the rising risk posed to us troops with the fantastic panels straight ahead. alright, let's get into the m o. the power 22. nobody had ever heard of it until late january of 2024. that's one of drones struck the living quarters and killed 3 u. s. service members and injured dozens more than us was quick to blame iran and
