sharp and focused? or if the message is not received couldn't broaden? >> michael, i think it could broaden. i know the pentagon is optimistic that they will have a short and sweet so to speak effect on the houthis and make them really in essence stop the type of activities they have been doing in the red sea, but i do not think that will be the way the houthis will handle this. what they will probably do is try to redouble their efforts, there will have to be some brief strikes of the target, it and probably be some new targets the u.s. and uk and other countries will probably have to engage before this is over. >> unintended consequences are always, possible always feared, what are the risks? could just for example a civil war reignited? the saudi peace efforts be derailed? >> i think those are very valid concerns, michael. one of the key aspects of this environment was the fact that the saudis were in essence trying to withdraw from their engagement in the yemeni civil war. so with that process, it is probably grinding to a halt at this particular point, and you also have the situation wh

sharp overnight frosts. bye— bye. voice-over: this is bbc news. we'll have the headlines for you at the top of the hour, which is straight after this programme. michaelhas a new book out and we met him here in washington, where else but in a book shop? well, look who it is. what a surprise! as if! i can't believe i found you here! it's been so long. can ijust say i'm standing here feeling kind ofjealous? why? well, look. and we didn't even put it there. it wasn't even staged. no? no. well, i mean, it's selling very well, so why not? and the cover looks good. i think the cover kind of pops. i'm wondering if you get a bit... you know, i've had it one or two times, books in windows, but you must get it all the time. so, the thing that makes my socks go up and down is not seeing the book in the book store window, but it's walking down the aisle of an aeroplane and seeing people read the book. when you see people reading it... i've sat next to somebody once who was reading my book and i didn't say anything. so, i had exactly that experience. after liar�*s poker came out, i was... it was a version of this — i sat down to reread my book because i was coming

michael eisen, who retweeted a article from the onion and and the satire was that, you know, it was regretful that a dying palestinian boy's last words wasn't condemning hamas, like it was a very sharp edged kind of, you know, criticism of the way we talk about what's going on at the in israel since the attacks. and that was the final straw that led him to be fired. that is absolutely within our definition of cancel culture and and, of course, people since have argued, well, there were more reasons than that. i'm like they always say they're more reasons that they're very well might have been. but if the straw that broke the camel's back was retweeting the onion, that's cancel culture. absolutely. when it comes to the tearing down of posters of kidnaped children and elderly people and friends and family, that's something that is partially because it is itself a liberalism. it is intolerance itself. so you can't say that there's some kind of special free speech value in tearing down other people's posters. that's mob censors that that's private censorship, trying to actually literally limit the spread of of of true facts. so i don't have i have very limited sympathy for the people wh
