elliott, thank you, man. we should not become just sort of immune to that footage. we shouldn't get used to it. it's terrible to see images like that. so good evening to you. you met another american who served in the marines who is in ukraine fighting for the resistance. he told you that the combat is worse than anything that he saw in afghanistan. how did he describe it? >> he described it really as kind of classic trench warfare. he was fighting north of kyiv. he described being shelled in trenches over several days. he described a pulsing wave of russian troops, a type of warfare we haven't seen by and large in europe since the mid-20th century. >> elliott, he also spoke about how critical javelins and anti-war weapons are in this battle. why is that? >> i think we're seeing something really interesting with these javelin anti-tank missiles and a few other similar missiles in that they've become so effective that a group of ukrainian soldiers with a javelin is more lethal than the latest generation russian tank. and he told me one of the reasons we're seeing suc

that was victoria elliott speaking to me | victoria elliott speaking to me earlier, her mother was incial operation," in ukraine, and he thanked russia's military. his comments came in a public speech to a packed stadium in moscow. 0ur russia editor, steve rosenberg, has sent us this report. "your president needs you," they had been told, and they came. some with flags and fervour, others with the letter z that has been painted on military vehicles in ukraine. i'm a patriot says this woman, if our government is fighting in ukraine it must be necessary. not everyone was so excited at attending a kremlin rally. we have spoken to a few people who said they were either forced to come here by their employers or promised the day off if they would come. but no one would go on camera. inside the stadium, where the world cup final had been four years ago, this time. vladimir putin! it was president putin out in the middle. 0n the anniversary of russia's annexation of crimea, he gave a pep talk to his people about events in ukraine. translation: we can see how our soldiers are acting and fighti

elliott, thanks for being here.h is easy to do when the military burden in this country is holdered by 4.5% of public. my question to you is should any topic of war being accompanied by a return to the draft? >> well, i think the reality is, you know, if we were to see the type of war emanating from this current war that's going on in ukraine to the united states, we associate the question that you asked, whether or not people would stay and fight or flee. that would be a situation where you have a naturalization or a draft to fight the war. when it comes to the war -- i am a proponent, i think we should have a draft. the draft is less in terms of creating numbers for the u.s. military, but it's how the draft changes society, its relationship with the military. right now with the all-volunteer force, since the 1970s, the military has become a subset of society, and when we go to wars, these are wars fought by other people and we pay for them through deficit spending. so it's very easy to fight wars what we're seeing

. >>> elliott gotkin joins me now live from the scene of the shooting near tel aviv.ut the shooting, and do authorities believe it's linked in way to the other two attacks? >> the authorities are concerned about growing violence. as you say, this is the third attack we've seen in israel in the space of about a week. leaving 11 israelis dead. what happen last night, it began from where there was a main road to further up there. he came down this presidential street. he then appeared to shoot from what appears to be a teenager on an electric bicycle. police say he missed the teenager and came here and right behind me here where you see these candles, there are two now identified as ukrainians age 23 and 32, sitting on a quiet evening outside this shop. they were shot dead at point-blank range. the man shot and killed a man driving home from his car and he went around the corner and shot another man who had his baby in his arms. the baby was engaged. he was engaged by israeli police officers a motor bike. his partner got off the motor bike with his pistol, shot dead. the

[ laughter ] >> jimmy: you're running -- yes, you run after the thing - >> go to him >> jimmy: go to him, yeah. >> go to him so yeah, i thought it was awful. that little rainbow felt sarcastic as it takes off. i hope there's a director's cut somewhere where elliott tells his family and says, "peace. >> jimmy: yeah, and goes to space with e.t >> jimmy: you know what i was going to say to you, by the way. last time you were on the show, and i talked to you. i said -- i was talking about -- i don't know how i got into it. about meeting a d

good to see you, elliott. what's the range of issues to be discussed and of course the expectations? >> rosemary, it's incredibly significant in the sense that it's never happened before. they were calling this an historic meeting. and it really just underlines the -- israel's changing place, if you like, in the middle east since the signing of the abraham accords. a meeting like this has never happened before. it is being overshadowed to a degree i suppose by those attacks that you just talked about in northern israel and indeed attacks that were universally condemned by all the foreign ministers meeting there in southern israel. so there's a few issues that are going to be on their agenda, and i should say that the main meeting is actually due to start in the next few minutes. it's a 90-minute-long meeting due to kick off at 10:00 a.m. local time. in just a few minutes' time. they'll be discussing -- first of all, this will show the u.s.'s strong clear commitment to the middle east. we understand from someon

and i agree with everything that elliott said., they blocked facebook. but, you know, only about 7% of russians use facebook. so, the point of this, all that they are doing is to send a message to other sites, including a russian site which many russians use to make them comply. but, where this has not been going well for russia is a broad, with the shutdown of our t, and ben collins had an interesting story that russian propaganda isn't working as much abroad. and, what's really interesting is between that and the fact that the u.s. government has effectively declassified russian intelligence about what they are doing, russia has not been able to control the narrative about this invasion abroad. >> elliott, what about that narrative inside the country? because, repressive regimes have succeeded in doing this. there are examples all through apartheid era south africa, where people just didn't, you know, they got the censored narrative from the government, and that's what they believed was happening. there are russian soldiers losi

elliott, though, will actually control the company.e of the equity, more on that in a moment you can see it right there 28 bucks a share, equity value 10 billion you got debt, all adds into about 16 billion, that premium by the way, and the way they moved up from the 2540 bid to 28 is ultimately 60% premium. it represents the largest cap premium that you've seen in five years. nielsen had projected 2540 this is a fund people really weren't aware of this is kind of reminiscent in the sense of archegos, they own 9.6% of the equity and 14.4% in derivatives. this could become an issue because we didn't hear about windacre in the press release, and making calls on this nothing in terms of whether they're supportive now they said they thought the company was worth as much as 40. why is it potentially at least important? well, this is a uk company they're going to do it under a scheme of arrangement. you need 75% to be -- 75% of the shares, and if he were to convert those swaps, well, potentially it could be a gating issue, forcing them to go

elliott, what more do we know about this deadly attack? is there a claim of admission here?reporter: yeah, isa, there has been a claim of admission from a military brigade. we have been hearing more details around the specifics from last night. the israeli police tell us the gunman came from the main road, came down and tried to shoot at a teenager on a bicycle. missed the teenager. then came here to the corner shop where you can see there's an israeli flag handle and he shot dead two men, ukrainian men sitting outside with one another on a tuesday evening. shot dead at point blank range. he then shot a man driving home in his car, shot him while he was driving and then around the corner here on another residential street shot dead a 30-year-old father who was playing with his toddler. he then came across two israeli police officers. he shot the driver of the motorcycle they were on in the chest. the partner shot the gunman dead. the driver who was shot in the chest was taken to the hospital and died later of his wounds. he was israeli arab. he's due to be buried this aftern

i want to bring in elliott williams. good evening to you.publicans on the committee trying to signal with these lines of attack? they seem bizarre. >> we'll step back for a second. cory booker used the word joy when talking about this nomination. he was taking a minute to bask in the moment and how special this nomination is for america. and the fact of seeing a black woman up there. before getting into this sort of silly season of the back and forth over the politics, all americans should embrace that fact. to your question as to what republicans are trying to do, they don't have a clear line of attack against the nominee. she has sort of this unimpeachable record as a judge, jurist, and attorney. so it's a broader fight. we heard about critical race theory, crime, child porn, and so on. this is not about the nominee, it's about the 2022 and 2024 elections. >> you're a attorney, don't you have to zealously defend your client? >> she's supported by the fraternal order of police, supported by the international association of chiefs of police.

journalist elliott godkin is following the high-stakes diplomatic trip from jerusalem. >> reporter: forli foreign and prime ministers wasn't the one between israel and the palestinians. it was on the agenda. just that russia's invasion of ukraine and the iran nuclear deal were at least on sunday more pressing concerns. secretary blinken lauding israel's denunciation of the war, the field hospital it set up in western ukraine, and its diplomatic efforts to end the fighting as well as israel's promise not to become a back door for russian sanctions evasion. he also went back on president biden's apparent call for toppling putin saying the u.s. doesn't advocate regime change in russia or anywhere else. the other big issue he discussed was the u.s.'s desire to rejoin the iran nuclear deal, something that would reportedly include delisting of the country's revolutionary guards as a terrorist organization. prime minister naftali bennett repeated israel's objection, saying it hoped the united states will hear the concerned voices from the region. after meetings in jerusalem secretary blinken h

senator hawley's disingenuous attack against judge jackson's record on child pornography, elliott, thisbaseless on a number of fronts. >> look, forget what judge hawley says. the fraternal order of police, the largest policing organization in the world, supports ketanji brown jackson. the international association of chiefs of police, 60 former doj attorneys, 60 former -- no, police chiefs all over. what are they seeing that this senator is not? now i have a hard time believing that the fraternal order of police is going to let someone who is soft on sex offenders. so put aside all the politics and nonsense and just get back down to the qualifications of this nominee. number one, graduating from harvard twice with honors. two, nine years as a federal judge. three, private sector practice, public service, all of it is there. and yes as you were saying, this is a proxy battle about the 2024 election. but at the end of the day, this is a nominee that no one can really keep a straight face and say is soft on sex offenders. >> curious what you think about this idea of -- as mcconnell indicat

elliott, thanks. it was a great piece you write, the evidence that ukraine is winning this war is abundant lay it out for us. >> there are a whole bunch of things of course, most people expected russia to be able to conquer ukraine in a matter of days. not just the russians, but we did. that turns out not to be true. as you pointed out, the russian advances are stopped we know that, and it's not for want of trying but there's a lot more data than that the russians have been unable to suppress ukrainian air defenses. they haven't been able to destroy the ukrainian air force. we do know that even by what appears to have been a russian slip, they've taken close to 10,000 dead, killed in action. that's about two-thirds as many as they took in afghanistan over ten years. we know that they're taking 1,000 dead and wounded every day. that's according to western intelligence sources most importantly, we see, for example, that they have almost as much equipment that they have abandoned or deserted as has been

we had a red alert elliott meaning there was a much more immediate danger, and i think that is reflectingn troops and army chiefs are still working their way down from the north, which is causing a lot of headaches, to join up causing a lot of headaches, to join up with that russian convoy, that a0 mile long russian convoy, so the worry is that they will encircle the city and we will see here what we have started to see in other parts of ukraine, in mariupol notably in the south—east, where it is still very much under siege, it has been heavily bombarded, especially residential areas say authorities there, and that is the worry here. when you go through the city, they are still military checkpoints, you might get your vehicle search now, there are nervous armed volunteers around and the only crowds you see are outside the few pharmacies that remain open. it is very much a city bracing itself, but what we are seeing in the south are real gains being made by this russian advance. mariupol is under intense pressure. its population of half a million are continuing to be without running water
