this is the first time you can -- i could imagine both hillary clinton and dennis ross have said therease-fire early on in this thing and they continue to believe that dennis ross is finally taken responsible for forcing israel to allow concrete to come into hamas, that built the tunnels. hamas has had since 2005, to build a democracy if that's what they wanted to do instead squandered money on building rocket factories and ways to distinguish state of israel and jewish people worldwide. mark: i'll say this for me democrat party has blood on its hands, even in the united states here -- where refuses to even vote in unity on resolutions that condemn what's taking place, joe biden his public statements, that the israelis are indiscriminately bombing gaza, hezbollah, gazan civilians, he is stoking anti-semitism in this country, it is grotesque when we come back i have a legal question for you involving jack smith the rogue prosecutor in washington. and the motion and this action that he wants to supreme court to take really, really fast -- i'll be right back. mark: welcome back america da

for more on the defense secretary's trip to the u.s., i want to bring in ambassador dennis ross, former special assistant to president obama and nsc senior director for the region and he's also met with some of the families of the hostages. ambassador, great to talk to you once again. talk me through what you heard from the families of the hostages still being held in gaza. what did they tell you? >> i won't surprise you that they're focused very heavily on 73 days. they're deeply concerned about the conditions of the hostages, worried about those who have been injured and whether or not they have gotten any care, almost a sense of understandable desperation about how much longer this goes on in terms of people there being able to survive. they know that they've heard from hostages who have been released about the conditions, the treatment. so there's a deep passion and concern. and obviously the fact that three hostages somehow escaped but then were tragically killed by israeli forces. all this weighs on them. they want to know that the world isn't forgetting, that these were people wh

i mean, even earlier this month, i think dennis ross wrote an article saying that some of our leaders have said that, you know, we need to get rid of her boss and so on. so i think this is, this is dangerous and you know, him going to, to saudi. i think it's, it's also about thinking of, of sort of guarantees of normalization may be under the war ends of you know, how do we talk about a 2 state solution that we all know we're sitting around the room. probably all know that this is not going to go anywhere, but how do we presented as a solution that you know, we can take forward and for perhaps also present as real with some kind of victory . right? because as real in of, as that is not going to when we've seen that, in fact, thomas is much more resilient to then what we, you know, what believe the whole world's thoughts prior to october southern and thought that is real, to go in and, you know, why thoughts on us and things like that? but really it is, i think we have to go back to the fact that the ultimate plan is ethnic cleansing, not eliminating how much is the meaning from us is

even dennis ross, former middle east peace envoy wrote, should signal to palestinians others are notoing to wait for them to make peace with israel. he had figured out, trump did. peace broke out through the middle east. he left the middle east and peace for the next administration. there relations with israel and it was iran that was trouble, why? donald trump had enough. not only did he take out soleimani which made it clear to all leaders of the regime that he could take any of them out so he stopped them from doing a number of things. as a result of sanctions on oil, trade, finance, everything could put his stamp all, they suggest three or so years ago, iran's economy falling into deep recession. iran's exports plummeted. their currency hapten value, the economy was collapsing, living costs rose dramatically for the average number iranian the people were rising up, protest which continue to this day but iranians brutalized those people and most are women and teen girls who stood up against the dress policies and so forth, protest represent the culmination of a dramatic widespread

. >> we're going to be talking later on in the show with former ambassador dennis ross about that whoantastic op-ed in the new york times with some fantastic answers. when you talk about that humanitarian crisis which has happened, it's a drop in the bucket, the first aid convoy. what does this mean for them? how much is coming in? how many people can it feed? can it get water? what are the resources that are available for them? >> to put this into context, about 500 trucks would enter gaza with a, including fuel. after the territory was sealed after the hamas attacks of october 7th, there was aid going through the rafah border on the egyptian side. after the visit of the national security adviser jake sullivan, there was an announcement made by the israeligovernment that the crossing on the israeli t th intersection of egt and israel would open not just for inspections but for vehilar traffic to go through. of vehicles, the number ofmb trucks into the gaza strip loaded with aid to 200 a day, so from 100 through rafah, i should say, to another 100 added through the other border crossi

dennis' own goal was the difference, giving the visitors a 1—0 win. there were six goals though at motherwell who scored a 97th minute equaliser to draw 3—3 with dundee. livingston rossup third round for the first time since they rose from the ashes of the old maidstone united in 1992. they had to come from behind to beat league two barrow 2—1 and did it in spectacular style, thanks to midfielder bivesh gurung, with only his second goal for the club. 0ne he and maidstone fans will cherish for years to come. if anyone was going to score a winner like that, then it is him. he tries it in training and we have said about being positive when you are in those areas but you have also got to look at the past. it was absolutely spot on and then the execution in that moment was just brilliant, it was wonderful to watch. it was mesmerising. a goal in the 89th minute from danny collinge earned a replay for national league barnet as they drew 1—1 at league two side newport county. in only his second match as manager, ged brannan guided league two morecambe to upset league one wycombe wanderers. eli king and tom bloxham's goals gave them a 2—0 win. there was no fairy tale for seve
