but the local players here, hamas and bibi netanyahu, are perhaps not interested.r rhetoric from lebanon that suggests that hezbollah really want to get any more involved — that they want to see this conflict widening? absolutely they have no interest. nor do their iranian patrons. they very much want to extract a price from israel for its ongoing war in gaza. let's remember that hamas is an ally of hezbollah and an ally of iran, and what israel is really doing here is dismantling the palestinian arm of that iranian axis. so this is something that is strategically painful and costly for both iran and hezbollah, but they don't want to be dragged into a direct war, and nor does iran want to see hezbollah stand in a major war with israel. hezbollah is very useful to the iranians as a first line of defence should israel attack its nuclear facilities. so for those reasons, not because they're responsible players, iran and hezbollah do not want to see a war. firas, amos hochstein going to the region is a good thing because he is very experienced and has been many times,

pete: this administration has been working behind the scenes against bibi netanyahu.e this and go on, the defense minister, there's reporting that the american administration is behind him and his efforts to take on bibi netanyahu. they've been trying to tell israel where they can and cannot raid. imagine after 9/11 if some country was to tell us you can't go to that town in iraq or afghanistan. we'd say we can go wherever we want forest tri for retributit happened on 9/11. that's a lot of the same thoughts that israelis have. rachel: actually, the execution is under debate in israel because many of the families of the hostages would like to see their loved ones being the priority and getting a cease fire agreement versus trying to destroy hamas before they're able to save their loved ones so i know we talked a little about rafah because that's been in debate and i think it's helpful, pete, if you could go and a show us on the map what we're looking at. pete: rafah is a big sticking point to the idea of any sort of cease fire with hamas if that's what they want now th

and also israeli prime minister bibi netanyahu doesn't want to face a day of reckoning once the gunsorridor as a pretext to stay away from that ceasefire. so the us very much pushing in the direction of a ceasefire. even iran, hezbollah's patron, is pushing the direction of a ceasefire, but the local players here, hamas and bibi netanyahu, perhaps not interested. but are ou perhaps not interested. but are you hearing _ perhaps not interested. but are you hearing any _ perhaps not interested. but are you hearing any sentimental. you hearing any sentimental rhetoric from levin on that suggests that hezbollah really want to get any more involved — that they want to see this conflict widening? absolutely, the have conflict widening? absolutely, they have no _ conflict widening? absolutely, they have no interest, - conflict widening? absolutely, they have no interest, nor- conflict widening? absolutely, they have no interest, nor do| they have no interest, nor do their iran inpatient patrons. they want to extract a price from israel for its ongoing war in gaza. let's remember that hamas i

i better button to bibi netanyahu making that exact point. i don't think trump wants a war in the middle east any more than biden does, that may maybe bibi netanyahu's calculation but i think he may not have gotten that one properly calibrate. >> all right. kim dozier and bobby ghosh. our thanks to both of you new tonight, ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy has just arrived can the united states as part of a weeklong push for more support for its war against russia. he arrived this afternoon and today he is expected to tour a pennsylvania factory that makes a critical munitions for his country during his time in the state, zelenskyy is expected to present his victory plan to president biden he's also set to take part in the united nations general assembly in new york the mayor of birmingham, alabama says gun violence is at quote, epidemic level this after a gunman killed four people overnight and wounded 17 others, the mayor will join me live. that's next. >> plus federal agents searching the homes of new york city's act in police commis

i don't think anybody can tell you that if bibi netanyahu offers hamas the moon, that they will taket, that somehow if he had said yes to more concessions a week ago, that hersh or other hostages would still be alive, because to your point, this is an evil terrorist organization. and if you are dealing with an evil terrorist organization like this, your policies and strategy should be governed accordingly. and that means doing all you can to hunt down and kill their leaders, destroy their infrastructure, and hold every one of their state sponsors fully accountable. you can't make deals with evil. i'm just going to leave it at that. all right, rich, thank you so much for your time. once again, we appreciate it. and if you're just now tuning in, an american citizen is among six hostages found dead in gaza. israeli american hersh goldberg-polin was taken hostage on october 7th during those terror attacks by hamas. his family did confirm his death. he was just 23 years old. and the idf says when it recovered, those six hostages from the underground tunnels, it was likely that psoriatic a

bibi netanyahu has not got any success there. hasn't got the hostages back.estic pressure about that. he is trying to, i think, shift the attention. there is a very real sense in israel that people want the citizens of northern israel to go back before school starts. but this is not the way to do that. it's clear there has been a ratcheting up. odds are it escalates out of control. it'll get worse. i was reading my colleague's this morning, saying it was nowhere as bad as it can get. israeli army isn't yet in. we haven't seen the barrage we could see from hezbollah. it could be a lot, lot worse. at the moment, it looks to be going in that direction. >> if you talk to israelis, if you talk to foreign policy experts in the region, zanny, they'll say that netanyahu is not just one more reason for it but the main reason for it. when his defense ministers, when his intel ministers, when you have so many people saying, let's move toward a cease-fire to bring the hostages home, i know you all have heard it, i have heard it from israelis and from leaders in the regio

your plan rests on a change in government in israeli another words, is there any chance that bibi netanyahu would go for this and if not do you think it's conceivable that another right-wing prime minister, because i i think that's what's in the cards and naftali bennett are an avid or libin would they go along with this plan or do you need a political transformation of israel where somehow you get a moderate who becomes frozen, tell you for it. i always thought before i was prime minister while i was by mean, when i worked with other prime ministers and watch where leaders at the ultimate measure for great leadership is the ability when the time comes to do the opposite of everything that you ever promised to do, because this is what needs to be done now this is what pronoun him begging the when he pulled out entirely from sinai. this is what i actually did when he pulled out entirely from gaza this is not what netanyahu is going to do because he's not a great leader. he is not churchill. and he's not roosevelt and he's not even chamber line and i'm afraid that none of the possible contend

for instance if the government of bibi netanyahu does not have an incentive to stop the bombardment thatan the incentive to continue, they have no reason to do it. likewise, hezbollah is in a difficult position itself. we tend to look at hezbollah as a terrorist organisation but it is a regional government and a part of the national government. it is a militia, it carries out terrorist acts but it is all of those things and, let's not forget that it lost a great deal of regional credibility when it went in full force to support asada syria for other reasons. ok, you are not the underdog anymore, you are not fighting against, you are not part of the resistance, you are supporting an oppressive government. so in a sense they had lost a lot of their political credibility and one could almost say that this conflict is giving it back to them. i conflict is giving it back to them. . , ., ., them. i am interested to hear our them. i am interested to hear your view _ them. i am interested to hear your view on _ them. i am interested to hear your view on the _ them. i am interested to hear your v

or if the response is deemed too weak, that will only invite israel and israeli prime minister bibi netanyahuar, only encourage them to strike further and deeper into lebanon. but if it strikes and responds in a manner that's too strong, then perhaps that gives israel the very pretext it's looking for to broaden this war. so they're in a very difficult situation. and that's why perhaps this is an opportune time to take the diplomatic off ramp and accept to work with american diplomacy. in france, a man accused of drugging his wife and allowing dozens of strangers to rape her during a period of ten years, has admitted to all the charges against him. dominique pelicot, who's on trial with 50 other men, acknowledged that he was a rapist, and said his wife gisele, who has waived her right to anonymity, "did not deserve" what happened to her. andrew harding reports. prison vans arriving at the courthouse in avignon. inside, some of the 51 men on trial here. handcuffed, all accused of raping one drugged and unconscious women. but many of those on trial remain free men. masked, they enter the courth

i believe that bibi netanyahu is killing the hostages and too much for this whole country to handle, and that's what you see. the people have had enough. some 250 hostages were taken on october 7th from israel after the hamas attack. it's believed fewer than 70 remain living in captivity. hamas has taken responsibility for the six recovered over the weekend, saying they've instructed captors to kill if rescues are attempted. yesterday, netanyahu apologized for the killed hostages, saying i'm asking for your forgiveness, that we did not manage to bring them back still alive, then doubled down on why it's important for his troops to block hamas's weapons supply on gaza's border, a foothold considered a key block to ceasefire. president biden and his top aides have led negotiations between israel and hamas for months. yesterday, biden bluntly expressing his frustration with the agreement process. do you think he's doing enough? no. frustration echoed by those familiar with ongoing talks. no matter how hard the united states pushes, hamas doesn't want a deal. this israeli government does

what bibi netanyahu allowed is essentially drift. we're seeing the consequences of decades of drift. we're seeing what's happened in gaza. we're seeing it in the west bank. ultimately, yes, i'm not sure you have a one-state solution, you may have a one-state non-solution. not anything that's formally codified. just a version of what you see today, the territorial division will continue to evolve. yes, it does raise fundamental questions about whether israel will remain a jewish democracy. at some point, you have to choose. bibi wants to put off that choice. i think it has real consequences, among other things. in britain, the partial arms cut off, and here, it's real consequences not just for israel but its support in the world. will people continue to be so sympathetic to an israel that remains an open-ended occupation of these two pieces of land and 5 million palestinians? i am not so sure. but that's what increasingly is on the table. >> to this point, the white house, and we heard from vice president harris specifically, say they

it is a terrible position that bibi netanyahu is in.hite house situation room is about size of big dining room, president at one end, he will get briefing from hostage negotiate ors and he will turn the secretary of defense, and turn to secretary of state, what is israeli position? intelligence director, what do we know about israel's capabilities and iran's capabilities? will iran get involved? all around the table and every head turns to the president waiting for his decision. we have joe biden who has been on vacation for two weeks and said . what would your decision be? you have dead silence. >> pete: that is right, help me answer that question, what is kamala harris' foreign policy? joe is who he is. his capabilities are what they are. heads will turn to her, she is running for that be jo. is she more interested in winning votes in michigan than having a good out dollar come for an ally here? >> she has minnesota and michigan, she wants voters and anti-israel muslims to vote for her. in the white house, you have to make tough calls

kind of complaining, but you don't hear joe biden and tony blinken coming out and saying that bibi netanyahu is the biggest obstacle. they want to prioritizeir loved ones over netanyahu's political survival, so they could be calling this out. and one more other thing, lo and behold some air crossings opened up temporary. when joe biden restricted one weapons shipment back in the spring, they adjusted their plan for their invasion of rafah, but that's about it. we've not seen the u.s. use the leverage that it has, overwhelming leverage, because we are the lifeline that supports not just the diplomatic shield but also their cacity to continue this military operation. they continue to do this approach where we're going to hug bibi in public and we'll criticize him in private, but that's gotten us very little progress if at all in the last 11 months. >> i do have to ask, though, you make the point the israel public has disavowed netanyahu in a big, obvious way. and yet opposition to netanyahu has not coalesced. it's a combination of centrist, left wing arab parties, and yet there hasn't been the

i want not only biden and bibi netanyahu to do everything they can, but also the international community to pressure both sides to do the same. i mean, the fact alone that my parents were murdered that day and we're taking as bargaining chips is sickening by itself, and american was executed you know, a few weeks ago and hamas flags are being waived in the streets of new york and it's unacceptable. >> it's gross it's horrifying. i heard brother of one of the hostages talking about the campaign of sabotage against members of hezbollah in lebanon and he said it's not bringing my brother back what's your take when you hear about these successful attacks presumably by israel against hezbollah look, mako level, how does this help us to teach not just israel, but also the united states as this the future contest to de-escalate the key too unlock the situation is a deal to get back the hostages exchange of prisoners, and finishing the war. >> and what we see in lebanon right now is the opposite direction. we are starting to get into a position where a full-blown war is risk for israel right now

but but bibi netanyahu showing that he's prepared to take that risk regardless of what president biden has to say and he seems to be there's a lot of reporting to suggest that he's counting on the election in november to lead to donald trump returning to the white house. and he feels that that will liberate him more i for one struggled to see that. i don't think donald trump to come to office with having to manage a major crisis in the middle east. if he can help it. >> but that seems to be netanyahu's calculation, right? >> so far you have he's been borne out ghosh. >> thanks so much to both of you. let's go back to amara and atlanta all right jim sciutto. >> thank you. and still to come hurricane helene, one of the most powerful storms to hit the country, barreled through the southeast. the massive cleanup operation facing the region now underway walz and j.d. vance in their first and only face to face and cnn has it covered with the best political team in the business. a cnn special event the vice presidential debate, tuesday at nine on cnn after careful review of medical guidance a

look at the bigger picture from the biden administration's point of view, it seems to them that bibi netanyahu, israel's prime minister, is just running out the clock until the u.s. elections because if trump is elected, the widely held belief and israel is that netanyahu will get a freer hand to attack both hamas and his villa without any threats to cut off any weapons so whereas if there was a ceasefire right now, that would hand a major political victory to the biden administration and netanyahu doesn't seem to want to do that and hezbollah leadership is declaring all of this as a real provocation. and if indeed it does, has the capability of firing rockets deeper into israel including tel aviv are there any predictions to be made about when that would happen if it could affectively happened from hezbollah's point of view or if it's really just a those rockets is that there sort of one and done. >> yes, they've got more than 100,000 rockets pointed at all of israel so far, they haven't chosen to use them against a heavily populated area. they've chosen mostly military targets and the strike

middle east, because this is also clearly part of some big game, i don't think that it's only bibi netanyahucated, now after the commercial we'll talk about how, actually, in light of the american situation in light of the ukrainian situation, the situation with us, how great are the prospects for something to flare up in the middle east even more powerfully than what's flaring up now, don't switch over, who gets licensed for doping in sports, who declared war? on russian boxing. and how the white house manages anti-doping agencies? if you 're going to participate in games that are not sanctioned by our country, then you can't participate in the olympics. i wouldn't be surprised if there really are two olympics in the next 2-3 years. he actually admitted something that americans have never admitted before, that vada is under the fbi. i'm one of the williams sisters' biggest fans, what do they eat to be so big, it's probably a very healthy diet combined with a lot of discipline, these athletes who represent the face of the united states of america, they use these same drugs, all the rules are

even thoe harris has done nothing to calm tensions in the middle east, u'p in fact, she dodged bibi netanyahu's speech to congress, of which i was thereeeich i wa . but the point is, is thato what's going to happen now is if they do so. and if they go forward with doing this, what will ultimately happen? it is going to escalate the current tensions that we have. and what lauere i say, laura, it there are those of us in congress. in fact, a majorites noty of coy does not want another war. and so the fact that they are doine ang this in an effortr especially right before an election, i would say noree buth only not only is it irresponsible, but it is very likely that your son s and your draft daughters, for those voters who may be undecided and that eney wilhatl drafted and that they will be forced to fight in another ward in that will liy not end in our favor. and i say that as a young momase it scares me. >> yeah. this this has been going on for now ye aw a years.we we spent a couple hundred billion dollars. we get sporadic reports about what i think mostpres americans don't really know what's

namely hamas and the government of bibi netanyahu. >> it's not clear that either one of those parties, at the end of the day is willing to sign onto the paper that guarantees a ceasefire and meanwhile, the horror and suffering in gaza and the families of hostages in israel continues unabated so we need that ceasefire and i hope that the two parties will yield to the biden administration's leadership and agree quickly to a ceasefire. i also want to ask you so about the war in ukraine, president zelenskyy once to be allowed to fire western supplied longer range missiles deep into russian territory. the ideas that would be striking a basis should the u.s. give that kind of go ahead? >> in my opinion, yes. we can't put ukraine in a straight jacket. so putin gets to do whatever he wants with impunity. he can fire long-range missiles, he can use aircraft too fire devastating weaponry into ukraine proper. but the ukrainians have had a serious restraints on how they can use western supplied us supplied weaponry i don't think that makes any sense at all. it impedes the ability of grain to reca

and many in the administration, the biden administration, have suspected all along that bibi netanyahu is stretching this out because he knows that the minute that the hostages are released and a ceasefire is declared that's the start of the investigations into how october 7 happened it's the start of the investigations into why the israeli defense force was caught flat-footed and responded so slowly. >> and it's probably the end of his time as prime minister so these two are intertwined. >> hamas has been a big element of this to let's remember, one of the reasons we're having a problem right now and coming up with a final deal as they just executed six hostages, including one american yeah. >> look, no doubt they seem to not have a big interest in coming to a deal. they're not feeling that pressure that certainly so many civilians these are feeling in gaza what would happen if netanyahu budges on this hamas demand? what would happen when it comes specifically to that question of national security is you have israeli forces saying they found a number of tunnels and number dozens and d

and bibi netanyahu himself, to reach that.o desire, deal, and get the hostages back as we know, this is urgent and among them are 22-year-old son who by the way, he turns 23 on october 14th, and this will be his second birthday, being held hostage very true. true think about that. no, we can think that far and we really hope that a deal that the u.s. government is working so hard with our partners in the region we'll be caught between his israel and hamas and the two leaders hamas leader and israeli government must reach that deal or else we won't see our deal ones coming back. >> do you have faith on unthinkable in the prime minister netanyahu, he asked for forgiveness that the six murdered hostages weren't brought back alive. he also said hamas will pay a heavy price for this do you think he has the hostages front and center in his priorities we don't unfortunately, not we met him in the white house with president biden we looked him in the eyes and unfortunately are feeling is that he has his own political future ahead of h

bibi netanyahu is doing what's best for his whole country. the 8 million that live there, not just the people who are being held hostage and their families. yeah okay. rabbi mintz, thank you so much for your time and your words tonight. we appreciate it. joining us now is rich goldberg, senior adviser at the foundation for defense of democracies. rich, thanks for being with us and coming on this morning, you know, just your initial thoughts on this information that we've gotten, especially in the last couple of minutes. now we have all the names of those people who were found under that tunnel in gaza. yeah, just two things. one, just the humanity statement as an american, as a jewish american and somebody from chicago, the news on hersh is devastating to people around the united states. whether you're jewish or not. this is an american citizen who was taken hostage on october seventh and has been brutally murdered in captivity. there are a lot of people who are touched by this in the united states, families around the chicago area, a lot of

i think bibi netanyahu understands the limits of the kind of pressure, the little will in washington to drink. >> very good. firas, thank you. and we look forward to speaking to you again in the future and hopefully at some point we're -- i don't know, we're in a better place at some point. but i don't know what the prospects are for that. thanks for your time today. >>> when we come back, we will go inside a pair of important labor stories. former commerce secretary carlos gutierrez will join us on the potential fallout of east and gulf coast port workers can't get a new union contract by the end of the month and they go on strike. >>> after a week, how much is the boeing machinist strike ngou ng that company and how lo cld the work stoppage last? that's next. "squawk box" will be right back. you'll find them in cities, towns and suburbs all across america. millions of americans who have medicare and medicaid but may be missing benefits they could really use. extra benefits they may be eligible to receive at no extra cost. and if you have medicare and medicaid, you may be able to ge

a deal has been reached bibi netanyahu is there. and then we see the, the humiliation that follows as bebe takes the stage right after he departs and says, there is no such thing. and i think for a country that is not only considered as a leader in the world, but a country that is directly in support in supplying these weapons to israel too. not, not do that after the first time that they backtracked on what they promised us, not do that on the second time, not do that on the third time now, 11 months in i think it is starting to sound like this is not a a serious thing that our secretary is working on. >> congresswoman ilhan omar. thank you for joining us here on the source. >> appreciate you. >> thank up. next, we're hearing from some of trump's republican supporters on the hill who are not pretty bracing his performance last night, we're going to get reaction from someone who is rumored to be on the potential trump cabinet list right after this welcome to the now way to network. >> they switched the juniper is a.i. native network
