[speaking native language] >> john: israeli military says that proves who is responsible. >> the islamic jihad was responsible for the strike at the hospital in gaza. according to our intelligence, hamas checked the reports and understood it was an islamic jihad rocket that had misfired and decided to launch a global media campaign to hide what really happened. they went as far as inflating the numbers of casualties. they understood without absolute certainty that it was a rocket misfired by islamic jihad. >> john: netanyahu using harsh words. >> the savage re from the nazi crimes of the holocaust. hamas are the new nazis. just as the world united to defeat the nazis, just as

i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus." israel has offered palestinians a way out before they move in and invade gaza and hunt down the monsters who attacked them. reports, though, that hamas is telling those more than 1.1 million civilians, their own people, the palestinians, not to evacuate northern gaza and get to safety. don't do that, which puts them critically in the middle to die. secretary of state antony blinken overwhelmed after seeing the images of the brutality by hamas that sparked the war. images so horrific, too horrific for us to show. >> it's beyond what anyone would ever want to imagine, much less actually see. an infant riddled with bullets. soldiers beheaded. young people burned alive in their cars or in their hideaway rooms. it almost defies comprehension. >> harris: hamas terrorists are still hiding in the areas of southern israel after the music festival massacre. our own trey yengst was at the site during the dramatic and dangerous incident breaking out while he was there. watch this. >> you can see

i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus." the political pressure became too much to ignore. president biden promised there would not be another foot of border wall built on his watch. then he caved. after all, walls do work. how do we know? his vice president kamala harris comes from california, a state where there is a wall. maybe that's why, as biden's border czar, kamala harris has never known what to do about the waves of humanity illegally coming into america. her state has a 15-foot tall barrier between san diego and mexico. part of that barrier goes right through the beach and continues into a section of the pacific ocean. to build more wall in texas now biden's administration will have to break or waive 26 federal laws. sounds like he is desperate. that is because home repeated security is citing high rates of illegal entry into the rio grande valley. must be tough to explain at the white house biden's need for the trump wall. >> how is this consistent what president biden pledged to do when he was elected, that he wi

christian, the notion that in the words of a great writer who happened to a nobel prize, william faulkner said the past is never dead and buried, it is the past. all of us are confronting constantly the history of slavery in this country, problems that arose as a concept of colonialism, confronting those scars of violence and oppression and struggle and difficulty and hope not only in the larger canvas of history but also within our own families and for me, it's not obvious how i was going to integrate and pool together all those different strands in my life so part of my challenge growing up was to figure out how do i function as someone who is black but also has white blood in me a how do i function as somebody who is american and takes pride and understands the enormous blessings that come with being an american but also to recognize that i am part of something larger than the nationstate, how do i embrace my faith when i was a christian, also recognizing i have people in my family who have a different faith and how do i describe the fact that we all have different paths ultimately to
