u. s. and israel, and some of that support is even said that it might be the girls themselves responsible for the symptoms by being hysterics or by not having like a biological calls at all. and these claims, of course, are widely refused by iranians who believe that their leaders are at least complicit in these crimes. because like in a country where authorities are able to track down and arrest people for protesting just hours later or for not wearing a headscarf or for even buying spray paint, it's virtually impossible to believe that they can't know who is behind that and that they're not able to prevent that if i could just ask you and you know, there have been huge anti government protests in iran in recent months. could this re energize that? the protesters? absolutely. i mean, remember what started those protests back in september was the death of a young woman gina mass. i'm in police custody after being arrested by the so called morality police for not very he job properly. that's what they said. and now it's even younger girls are being targeted at school, which is also an area whe

u. s. and israel's number one problem in the middle east. i mean, is the middle east changing? is the world changing? are we seeing new alliances formed? we seem new trade partners formed of people moving away from the traditional us deals and, and other hedge minis. i think in my opinion, the united states now more and more people know essays and main joy of deal regional instability and conflict, not only in the middle east, about also in eastern europe. cuz in the past 40 years, the united states has launched a lot of the was in the, in the world, especially in the middle east. so at least as in the middle east, at least one bidding of people have died under the fi of the united states. so now we had the only people know the water clearly. so carter hegemony opt you out. he stays should be end as soon as possible. wine plaza, and he is a thank you so much for joining us there. on r t i going to speaking to you. thank you for your time. thank you. so when asked to comment on the development us present, joe biden seem to share focus to other countries in the region. what are y

u. s. and israel in the region for details on this story and more visit our website. archie dot com. poland ambassador to france says his country may enter the war and ukraine. if kiev independence is at stake, his comments are from a recent interview to a french news channel swell, o is the ukraine will defend its independence, or else we will be obligated to enter into these conflict because our principal values that of the foundation of all civilization of our culture will fundamentally be in danger. so we have no choice was cross live now to archie, contributor rachel marsden to discuss. rachel is good to see you. now, what do you make of the polish envoys? comments here? is this a way of trying to raise the stakes? well, the sky certainly does have main character energy in a movie that just seems to be getting worse and worse. so pauline's ambassador to paris just one on one of frances taught news networks and basically told the french people, the poland is willing to drag the rest of the west into a full blown war with russia. why? because you cranes independence is threatened. he say

yes, indeed, this trade a very harsh words between best friends, israel and the u. s. comes and made claims from inside israel, from some israeli officials that washington may be involved, maybe behind or even sponsoring massive. i'm to government protests that have been shaking the country for 13 weeks in a row on saturday evening. netanyahu's son shared an article on his social media about the report that reveals with the state department allocates a lot of money for the reservation supporting demonstrators here in israel. some israeli officials started asking legitimate questions. this protest is financed and organized with millions of dollars. we're following what is happening. this is a very high level organization. there is an organized center from which all the demonstrators branch out in an orderly manner who finances, the transportation to flags, the stages. it's clear to us that you asked has been denying all accusations or any involvement in the protest movement. any notion that we are popping up or supporting these protests, or the initiators of them is co

it's causing a decline and israel's influence in the region as well. so to some actors in the u . s. and in israel, it may look like the only way out of this spiral that they're finding themselves in is to push ever harder on what's going on in ukraine. maybe they think that if they can break the russian military, then they can trigger like i said this to george many times in our podcast. i always get the sense there in the casino and it's rude let they just keep rolling the, you know, fitting the wheel and seeing the winning number will come up. ok. you know, george, we have a minute before we go to the break. what is it? it's 10 rounds, 11 rounds of sanctions that didn't work the 1st round and why? what if it doesn't have the impact you want? why do you keep hunkering down? it doesn't make any sense to me. george question, to the case weight. they think that they keep doing it, and eventually they, well, the called a falling t at which russia will collapse just like they, russia will supposedly collapse militarily or russia will run out of misses and artillery shells and the soldi

and demonstrably false. so his honeymoon over for israel and the u. s offense and yeah, his most recent statements, it seems they are good for now, but certainly there awesome clouds in the clear skies of his friendship. and as biden said, it remains to be seen cain of the story we are across to day. that prime minister of poland and his romanian conscious parts have taken a slight but the e. u for failing to deliver on the key points of the western back ukrainian grain deal. an oversupply has seen prices in europe tank hitting local farmers hard. here's the tick of art contributor, rachel marson. well polish prime minister mateus mar. wiki is usually busy, browbeating germany, france and the u. s. and the rest of the west for not doing enough for ukraine. now poland is always leading the charge and demanding higher powered weapons for ukraine, and is quick to rummage through its closet for fighter jets and tanks when it can easily replace them with better weapons for itself. with all that defense assistance cash from washington. and it just reportedly

and again. just very quickly. the threat of iran looms over all this as well as israel's need for the u. svery much on its side in the event of worsening escalation with iran. how influential is that? and how immediate the threat is that considered by israeli officials you speak with you know, it's hard to imagine president biden not being there for israel, and it's time to meet with iran, but there is a need to coordinate strategy. uh and you want to be on the same page with your ally as your coordinated that that strategy that's not a great time to see the fundamentals of the relationship frame. ambassador dan shapiro. good to have you on this morning. thanks so much for taking the time. thank you. disney has begun the first round of major layoffs. why the company's cutting thousands of jobs? what this says about the bigger picture in the u. s labor market. if you have diabetes, it's important to have confidence in the nutritional drink you c choose. try boost glucucose control. it's clinicay shown to help manage blood sugar levels and contains high quality protein to help manage hunger

and of course the u. s. is position on israel has been as, as always been alienating to the gulf states and other arab countries. but now the u. s. i do think feels it's got to do something to stay in the game in the middle east and i think part of that is going to be to be more critical of israel. so you have the dynamics, you're shipping. yeah, yeah. just just quickly before that to go down to me that someone was saying to me in an interview in the past few days that, that the, the israeli leadership tends to get along pretty badly with a democrat leadership in washington. and they seem to get along better with, with republicans. how would you assess that? i think there's some truth to that, but let's face that they get along with both pretty darn well. israel's, the 3rd rails, we say of american politics. neither party has wanted to alienate israel. you know, it's a matter of degree, i suppose. but again, i do. so i do that, given that what i just said, i think it is significant that now the democrats seem to be willing to cri

israel has talked about building up a credible military threat. so there they are not really on the same page about that and as far as the u. s. is concerned if, if, if, if, if, if israel wants support from the u. s, that it needs to keep the palestinians quiet. i think that's really the message and you're not the only one who does the thing that is where you palestinian conflict of the occupation is the biggest challenge facing the israeli government. and yet it's not that conflict that scott and thousands of israelis out on the streets at these proposed changes to the judiciary. that's re, are many, many israelis are out in the streets. they would like to preserve the status quo as they see it. they want to preserve a liberal democratic mechanisms that really only serve the jewish population. there is a very small minority that understand that you can not have a democracy with occupation and with the de facto annexation and creeping apartheid . so it's unfortunately not on the agenda. however, the more israelis come out and protest in favor of democracy, the more they will have to come up and deal with the fact that there are

and this was certainly at the center. of that call, as you noted eight days ago, where the president raised issues about israel as a democracy made very clear that the u. s. and a very candid manner would like israel to take a step back and more than anything else, pushed for the idea of trying to reach a compromise. that was a push that was reiterated today after the decision to put a pause on things was laid out in public, the u. s officials saying that they welcomed this step that was taken and urged israel and its its coalition government to work towards finding some type of compromise. as agreement even though there's no clear sign that that's necessarily something that's going to happen right now what you have seen from us officials from the president on down is a lot of caution in terms of how they address this. they understand that this is a domestic political issue in israel, they understand their longstanding relationship between the prime minister and the president. the dynamics of the us israel relationship, but also the u. s domestic issues here as well. and so that has brought in a lot of caution, but very clear concern as well. pamela pres

u. s. and with the participation of israel and palestine. now, one says here in palestine or at least as far as palestinian officials are concerned, they don't have the luxury to decline such an invitation. they're looking for ways to de escalate tension. we know that israeli forces have been reading cities left right and centre. that has left a lot of palestinians killed, but for palestinians since october, which is 3 weeks ago, $24.00 palestinians at least were killed by israeli forces fire. so they argue that the palestinian authorities approach to this whole matter, if they don't agree with that, they say that is, will, will continue it. aggressions are, this is the term many palestinians used to refer to the is really a continued read it to the west bank cities. crates. constitutional court has declared a parliamentary election held last september null and void. the court has rule the previous parliament should be reinstated. last year, co, its crime, prince dissolved parliament, and called for early elections to end political feuding.

u. s. and with the participation of israel and palestine. now, one says here in palestine or at least as far as palestinian officials are concerned, they don't have the luxury to decline such an invitation. they're looking for ways to de escalate tension. we know that israeli forces i've been reading cities left right and center that has left a lot of palestinians killed. but for palestinians since october, which is 3 weeks ago, $24.00 palestinians at least were killed by israeli forces fires. so they argue that the palestinian authorities approached this whole matter if they don't agree with that, they say that is, will, will continue. it's aggressions. this is the term many pasting is used to refer it to these really a continued reads it to the west bank cities. iran's top security official is in iraq for high level talks to shore up relations. ali sham county is expected to discuss security issues. the implementation of economic agreements and facilitating bank cooperation. iraq is iran, 2nd largest trading partner after china. in india,

israel. and it was a united front on iran as well. both the u. s. secretary of defense and these railey defense minister spoke to the media. you and aims to gain nuclear weapons and threatened not only as well, but the entire world where it's worth noting the iran insist as nuclear program is strictly for civilian purposes. u. s. secretary of defense, however, did bring up the issue of a recent violence in the occupied west bank. i remained concern about what we're seeing in terms of those escalation of violence. and i did discuss her those concerns with her with my colleagues. ah. and we're urging every one and to a, deescalate her and in terms of activities in the west buying. our focus remains on working with israel and the palestinians, and other regional partners to deescalate and restore call. ah, but despite that concern from the u. s. navy nightly rates by the israeli army, continuing the occupied west bank as does the protest movement against the proposed judicial changes. the govern refers to the protesters as advocates and says that the

and i had a sure to prime minister netanyahu that i was grateful for. what he has done with for the people of ukraine, germany, israel, and the u. s. support ukraine were very concerned as well about the conflict in the middle east and the escalation of violence that we've seen their members from an i said to the prime minister that i was concerned about the most recent victims of terrorism and new israel. this blind violence is lucky of something we're shocked about. stop is to guarantee it must be countered with the rule of law, but not with unbridled self. just general doug wanted to go out and, you know, review our new sustainable because to look to support about our 1st before i decide israel and palestinians must end in a 2 state solution. his life of germany calls on both parties to get away from unilateral attempts at addressing this issue. and this includes building further settlement default on the policy and the call for an f one. the palestinian leadership is clear, it must take on its responsibility for creating a democratic palestine reform. and i've also spoke with prime minister netanyahu, when he informed me about

there does appear though, to be a more of a difference between israel and the u. s. than, than any time in recent, at times when we heard just yesterday, national security minister of israel, banga, you're saying the country is not quote, another star on the u. s. at flag talking about protests that perhaps the u. s. were in, involved in. how do you think relations lie right now? well right now because there's an extreme right wing groping ah, netanyahu and to his he's in a block, he's in a coalition with extreme right wing zionist forces. so it's not popular. it's not how allocate to here in the u. s. or in israel. so there's an effort to create some distance. will it mean a fundamental change? i don't think so. the u. s. remains committed to israel as their unsinkable aircraft carrier in the region. that's how they've always viewed it, and that is what it continues to be. while they may wring their hands and express how pain they are. and all of that, that is just the window dressing. now the letter is important because it exposes on just how brutal the repression i

u. s. border. 38 people are killed. the shooter who kills 6 people at a school in the u. s. city of nashville was on the calf for emotional disorder, and legally bull weapons seized and israel's government and opposition began talks falling weeks of protest. all the u. s. president says he hopes the judicial reforms all dropped. ah, ah, it's been another day of protests on the streets of france. tens of thousands of people have again marched against deeply unpopular pension reforms. here is how things looked in cities from the north to the south of the country. the protests were mostly peaceful, but there were some confrontations between people and police unions and work as an angry at the president for raising the retirement age from 62 to 64 without a vote in parliament. natasha butler as a support from paris. some protesters burned bins and clash with police in paris during a demonstration that was otherwise peaceful. thousands of students and public sector workers once again in the st. angry with french president, emmanuel, my calls engine reform. it is government's decision to force you through parliament by decree, but critical down a mock may be the government is final

you mention it are the united states and israel and we've seen more calls for sanctions on iran from the u. s. but what other reactions do you expect from western countries in general of, from this move? well, actually, this move also has some impact on all the western countries. for instance, in eve, eve israel with of course, the green light, washington green light pass run. this will be parked on oil supply to all the western cultures. i think this is the message of these agreement. so the western counties now have closed the door to do russian oil. it my brains do risk of rob decision to stopped export to the western countries. those were sent township support and eventual to run. so i think it's really not just on the content of a story called the most important powers islamic world to leave the sunni and the leader of the ship. and also the timing when we are facing the rapes of israel to attack iran. so it's, it's a previous message not only to us, but also the western countries about the enormous risk phase. if they do not talk, the search is running against carlos res miguel, profess

and the u. s. has criticized israel's finance minister for denying the existence of palestinians cooling his remarks, dangerous and defensive. in a conference in paris, bessolo, a small trick described palestinians as an invention of the past century bows of the headlands. the news continues after $1.00 oh, $1.00 east. awe from breaking down the headlines till exposing the powers attempting to silence reporting. the listening post doesn't just cover the news. it covers the way the news is copied. oh, now does it they like to call it the lucky country. but australians lose more money gambling than anyone else on a casinos, holst races, sports, i think would most to bull poco machines the machines of build for addiction, hundreds of thousands of machines raking, intensive millions of dollars a year. the industry is digging in against for home. what we're concerned about is that ordinary people might stop gambling altogether. but attic say it's become a national crisis by him again, like i. and i've had thousands of conversations with people who are alex. i've had many men who all was the last person i

u. s. and with the participation of israel and palestine. now, one says here in palestine or at least as far as palestinian officials are concerned, they don't have the luxury to decline such an invitation. they're looking for ways to de escalate tension. we know that is really forces have been reading cities left right and center that has left a lot of palestinians killed. but for palestinians since october, which is 3 weeks ago, $24.00 palestinians at least were killed by israeli forces fire. so they argue that the palestinian authorities approach to this whole matter if they don't agree with that, they say that israel will continue it's aggressions. this is the term many palestinians used to refer to the is really a continued read it to the west bank cities. law with news all the winter. fortunes in north america has rob, with weather now maybe spring will coincide with the spring equinox in leasing candle. ne news, i should imagine you hope so, because this late is which is to wasn't to be another role. one is, is lake effect snow, which

u. s. to speak to our white house correspondent, kimberly halgert. and there is a natural assumption by those of us who are on the outside that israel and u. s. are incredibly close, but joe biden and benjamin netanyahu politically. very different. what's the context of these comments by joe biden? well, you're right there on the opposite ends of the political spectrum. and typically that is something that there have been able to work through. they have been friends for decades. and so the tensions have always been something that has been if there were tensions they have been really down played and a when they have simmered. they have not been in public view, but in the last 24 hours. that certainly has not been the case. the u. s. president gravely concerned about those proposed judicial reforms now on hold. but the u. s. president not holding back when he said that he was concerned and going even further saying that he believed this really prime minister should walk away from those plans altogether. we should point out that there is also something else that has been mentioned by the u. s. president joe biden, and that is when it comes to in

and deepen our roots. it's not the 1st time that israel a condense thing to national comments. when u. s. secretary of state expressed his concerns over these railey governments, planned judicial reforms that spark and wave of mass produce all across the country . israel's response was bold and straightforward, flagrant, chris, stupid and unnecessary interference. but even more often, israel does not give any verbal response answering with actions instead to international warnings that the countries settlement policy will kill the hope for a 2 state solution. how these railey palestinian conflict, israel announced 8th will expand as if saying, called listen to your they normally said bowwie or rather what is permissible for israel can not have. and they criticize toys. friedman who previously headed the u . s. policy thing. thank struck for that. neither side can when the ukraine conflict materially, and it will ultimately end through negotiations. he made those comments on the show, go underground hosted by option rows on see when will the war and then and who's going to win? well, i do

israel as it's main ally in the middle east. but the other reason and all of this is that the u. s. really sees israel is it's made sort of ideological ally in the region. it still sees it as the most aligned in terms of its democracy. it sees it as having open and free elections. it sees it as having still a peaceful transfer of power. and even though that might see this as having a bit of a hiccup, if you will, it still sees it as being the one country that most matches the united states. and so in terms of pulling that lever, what we see right now is other members of congress really holding their tongues really reticent to criticize what they consider to be their main ally in the middle east. i read to pull any leave as a tool by the sounds of it can be how could lie for the white house? many thanks. still to come on al jazeera. yeah, most military john said makes the most of armed forces day with a show of strength and a promise to crank down on descent. and ah hello there it was a pretty chilly starts the week across europe. things are going to start to warm up . we'll see tempe

well, i think that the whole region is blowing up and israel is blowing up 1st and foremost, and the u. s. is doing, it's better, it's best to contain the damaged but the, but the country is, is exploding both inside israel proper and of the occupied territories. i mean, no one knows where this crisis will will wind up and certainly will throw us policy in the broader middle east into disarray. so i think i see austin's mission as a, as an attempt at damage control. trying to keep the lid on israel trying to limit the damage that israeli mobs. ready israeli polk ron this are doing in the occupied territories, trying to keep iraq and time kind of trying to keep the pressure on iran and trying to keep saudi arabia in line as well. so, so that it doesn't ally itself too strongly with russia. as i said, the entire structure is regularly beyond belief is a house of cards. but austin is doing his best to prop things up. he's busy, busy, man, journalists and all that. daniel is already thanks for your time. always appreciate your insight. thank you so much. thank you. and france, at least 13 peo

needs to understand that israel is an independent country and not another star on the us flag. peace activists are a flanders, again, believes even the spikes they lead her. the u. s. remains fully committed to israel . there is an effort to create some distance. will it mean a fundamental change? i don't think so. the u. s. remains committed to israel as their unsinkable aircraft carrier in the region. that's how they've always viewed it. and that is what it continues to be. while they may ring their hands and express how pain they are. and all of that, that is just the window dressing. now the letter is important because it exposes just how brutal the repression is and calling for an investigation. that is what the people of the whole world have to do. and here in the us to is to demand a cease and these weapons of ending all aid to israel, all aid to israel to this repressive zionist settler state. that is why it exists. and as we can see in the repression today, that repression is an ending. there's no intention on the part of, of the zionist forces to, to, and in any way, there are policy of new settlements, their policy of bombing, their policy of the most a

we said israel went out to international pressure, is natural, the u. s. lead democracy summit and he thinks a compromise with the opposition could be possible. israel and united says her occasion differences. but i want to assure you that the alliance between the world's greatest democracy and a strong, proud and independent democracy, israel and the heart of the middle east, is unshakable. nothing can change that doing since it is our senior political analyst now, and the sheriff is quite extraordinary through public spat. isn't it between noon at yahoo in biden? yes, i think it shocked her. nathaniel himself within. he didn't see it coming as it were. i think he was too arrogant and believed that his relationship with biden is so close that the american person wouldn't do that to him. but there's a gathering storm in washington and in america, in general. not just because administration is upset with the fact that nathan, he, i was doing what nathan, he, i was doing along with the whole number of fanatics and fascists in his coalition government. but because the american jewish

and put a negotiated to state solution. i'm further away the u. s. has criticized israel's finance minister for denying the existence of palestinians cooling his remarks. dangerous and offensive. at a conference in paris this week busily small trick described palestinians as an invention. oh there's no such thing as a palestinian. there's no such thing as a palestinian people. do you know who's palestinian? i am palestinian. ah ah my late grandfather whose 13th generation at jerusalem night is the true palestinian. ah, ah, the palestinian people on invention that is less than a 100 years old. the use foreign policy chief address a barrel is urging israel to reject that statement, while the palestinian prime minister called the comments an incitement to violence in not possibly had looked the ad labial was utilized lately. the statement made by the israeli minister, smart rick saying that there was no palestinian people and that it was invented in the last 100 years is conclusive evidence of the extremist racist zionist ideology that governs the parties of the current israel

and repeated warnings from israel's foreign allies. if promises they win more settlements to come. it has been long standing u. s. policy under both republican and democratic administrations. that settlements are counter productive to the cause of peace. the vital ministration maintains this, his, this firm opposition to the settlement expansion. the security council reiterates that continuing is ready, settlement activities are dangerously imperiling, the viability of the 2 state solution. we urged the israeli government to reverse the recent decision to advance to construction of more than 7000 settlement building units across the occupied west bank and to legalize settlement outposts the number of demolitions of palestinian property that israel considers illegal has already doubled in 2023 compared to the same period last here the u. s. reports, these affected more than 11000 people, 400 of them displaced fears are that the worst is yet to come. after israel's national security minister ordered to go on with both those and of homes in occupied east jerusalem during ramadan, violating a years old agreement, the

u. s. and with the participation of israel and palestine. now, one says here in palestine or at least as far as palestinian officials are concerned, they don't have the luxury to decline such an invitation. they're looking for ways to de escalate tension. we know that israeli forces have been reading cities left right and center that has left a lot of palestinians killed. but for palestinians since october, which is 3 weeks ago, $24.00 palestinians at least were killed by israeli forces fires. so they argue that the palestinian authorities approach to this whole matter, if they don't agree with that, they say that is, will, will continue it's aggressions. this is a term many palestinians used to refer to the is really a continued reads to the west bank cities. and of course need, as you say, that the palestinian authority can hardly decline an invitation like this. so that must be mixed reactions. and emotions are in the sort of palestinian des spore where you are as to whether this meeting is of any use to them. well, according to recent po

israel? and also of course, within the government to this upon tension that now is very public between netanyahu and the u. s. president. well, this is unprecedented. a public open criticism, a rebuke, if you like, from the u. s. president to the prime minister of israel is no underestimation to tell you that most israelis view their relationship, that governments relationship with the united states as the most important foreign relationship that this country has. now benjamin netanyahu is already under a lot of pressure over less and he's suffering in the polls. most polls suggest that were there to be an election a soon netanyahu would lose and would lose because of the chaos that we see over the last few weeks. this criticism from the united states adds to that impression that netanyahu is not fully a got a full griff on his government at the moment. so that actually gives him more impetus, if you like to get these reforms through. because if lend benjamin not in yet now, doesn't get them through then is far right. coalition partners who are pushing this legislation. well, they'll leave the government, hi
