u. s. defending their rights. many are also skeptic about their own leadership. some say it's week others, it's hands are tied, but everyone would agree that the real power resides in that building, which is the headquarters of these really military occupation in the west bank is from here. this is what keeps its firm control and palestinians issuing orders and coordinating that the rates that have seen more than 3300 people, the team since october, 7th, and president without best, gave the secretary of state a fine with a list of eligible crimes committed by the occupation forces in both the west bank and gaza blinking then we turned to tel aviv for more meetings, a clear indication that the old days of us shuttle diplomacy in the region of back hold up there. how many dizzy to run my la? okay, well let's talk a little bit more about blinking visit to the region. again. we treat the policy who is the co founder and executive vice president of the quincy institute, which is the us think tank. he joins us now from washington. d. c. a. welcome to you. so how should

right? so a lot of them are just considered numbers, dead bodies. yes, but they're just numbers, they're not actual humans. and that has compounded the very sort of unjust u. s. foreign policy when it comes to this, when it comes to this conflict. but the 2nd point is, the fact that the united states does believe that israel is exercising its right to self defense. and there's important context here from a legal perspective. so, you know, the international court of justice had issued an advisory opinion of 2004, for example, about the separation. while the israel built in the occupied posts a new month. and it said that israel cannot claim it. the claimant's right to self defense over territory that it effectively occupies that it has an effective control over. and this also goes for garza, despite the fact that is real claims that it no longer occupies, goes a since 2005. when it's a disengaged, it does, and in fact the that because it has effects of control default to you and experts.

right. because for the past month and a half, the u. s. was solidly behind is right on condition that a financing, automatic. it's war crimes against guy, so it was clear from the beginning but by then bucks himself and behind nothing. you know, nothing else. calculus is different than that to the americans. you would have expected the americans to play the growing up in that room. but clearly they had their own strategic calculus. the americans wanted to send that message to china. that just like the autumn they ukraine, they are in israel palestine, whereby they would support the allies all the way whatever it takes. and they would not flinch, even if they get to some sort of a nuclear war risk. and you'll create a rush hour or a general side is that a lot of stuff. but now a month and a half later, they have a different kind of calculus one. they don't want to risk everything they worked for in terms of as far as normalization, with the out of sensors. then at the now government, then its political establishment are blind to that. i tell

u. s. i is the right job. they'll, they'll take us. i have to because up is already in a bad situation because of the situation regarding ukraine, which of course not the size of the thing about now, but the power i was about, like you look at the possibility of in casualties didn't ukraine. i the, the a 2 year period, but apparently i figured that to $21.00 days. yeah. yes. it will. i will a indirectly answer your question, who's protecting questions in the middle east christians live um, safely and widely in a ran and hole by the way, in syria as well. but don't tell that to people because western media likes to cover up those sites. you said, let me go back to you, you know, people talk about home us, all of the time. they can have their opinion. most people in that badly informed and the west is, what is it to you because it's a terrorist organization. it's a, it's a social organizations, a political party. what is some in your mind? well, i, as there has been trying to rectify homebuyers, i'm transformed from us into i'm going to

right now, the u. s. posture is strategic ambiguity. both parties, refusing to say whether the u. nd taiwan. so much so, you will remember, you all the right and president trump for picking up a phone call from the taiwanese president, for violating diplomatic protocol. i think that status quo is unacceptable. i think that the u.s. currently embraces the one china policy. that policy of strategic ambiguity, now, is not strong enough. i would upgrade from that. the crystal clear that the u.s. will, affirmatively, defend taiwan. something no other politician is saying with clarity, until we achieve semiconductor independents. we depend on taiwan for the chips that power or modern way of life. i do not want china having an economic gun to our head, if they control that semiconductor supply chain, it would be a disaster for the u. s.. so, we will defend militarily. after we have achieved semiconductor independents, we resume the status quo of strategic ambiguity. yes, that would be a change. a change now, and a change later. i think -- >> just to clarify -- >> she jinping would have to

right? is very mild and very much need exploitation. the beacon really influenced the u. s . policy at the moment. unfortunately. right. as you mentioned that if this was indeed just simply rhetorical, simply symbolic, i mean clearly with large numbers of demonstrations on the streets of many cities of many countries. the question is whether those leaders, those oh, i see leaders, those arab league leaders are actually beholden to, to public opinion. and i think that's what we have seen now. mean is really unprecedented in terms of the public awareness about keeping a student issue. the cause of the 2 young people, the life of the better thing and the book, the suffering that they are really, you know, um, you know, dealing with every single day is really creating some kind of awareness, a reason to be locally globally internationally on an unprecedented scale, so i think that's new in order to leaders and daughters at the end of the day will have to pay attention to what the on publics are saying. i even think this somebody that we're talking about even boy must meet the expe

u. s. u and u. k. palestinians being denied the right to be treated in the sanctity of hospitals that's protected on the international more. but this is ignored by israel's tanks, bombs and guns. how has the motor will come to this? and why is garza's entire health systems? the reason i'm the israel is attacks will be asking this and more about gifts and a few moments. but this, this report from car league, the flight life happens, is only our next to living. these are the youngest victims of israel on garza with most hospitals forced to close surrounded and attacked. why is ready forces dozens of premature babies in the territory. the largest hospital have been transferred to the only areas where electricity is available. but there are no incubators and oxygen supplies of run out. the situation is desperate. so we lost many infants because some were born in italy. it's extremely difficult to look at them all the time. and there's nothing we can do. and it's not just him cost cause a city all its hospitals. optic service with no electricity, no water, and critically low medical supplies. they're una

right is now really in play for the coming election. second round, we'll have to leave it there and martin, god, thank you so much. the pleasure. when the u. s. supreme court overturn the constitutional rights to abortion across the united states. last year, the backlash around the world was fierce, but it's not just in the us that reproductive rights are under attack. and recent years, efforts to restrict access to legal and safe abortions have increased in latin america as well as the you. of this trend has bird authorities and friends to move to and trying the wrong to abortion in their constitution. over the weekend president and my new and my count tweeted the draft, the constitutional law which was based on the work of parliamentarians and associations, will be sent to the council of state this week and presented to the council of ministers by the end of the year. in 2024, the freedom of women to have an abortion will be irreversible. watson county on is now the law had already passed the senate, which voted by a clear majority in favor of the proposal in february. and here's the french justice minister erik du pont. already socialism

u. s. technology, but also west and west us. right now they are holding back their money. i'm the international companies, they are pointing out their profit from the chinese market. so seating thing has a lot of incentives to, you know, repair it. it's tice with um, um the u. s, so you can see that the community and the numbers um, just several years ago, a china was basically on a trajectory to a bypass the u. s. in terms of gdp in terms of absolute numbers. now that seems rather unlikely. um, the china, china has slipped down to just 64 percent of the u. s. level of gdp. so that is really very key, but even more essentially, i think also in china you have an increasing amount of experts, the intellectual, it's academics who say that a wall between those 2 countries could be more likely. and we have to be careful. and i think for this, you know, communication and a higher level of communication is essential to prevent any further escalation. you know, janelle, the dispute over taiwan was probably the most explosive issue on the agenda, or at least one of them, a white ho

right? they've seen very much so the u. s. economy is not some with the many investors wanna put their money right now. so it's no surprise that china is looking to pull those months out as possible. i've been watching a lot of this actually. yeah, the keep saying that the us is just printing money without any sort of substance behind it is uh, i guess. so the as, as long as they do month is out there. but what does this mean sort of for the global economy i'll be looking at. i mean, well, who we what we don't have relied on the dollar, could the dollar eventually just be less with us? yeah, i think we're and we're already seeing that resets in, in global markets. we're seeing that even today, that would be some last couple of weeks. even the rest seem to be with the russian people that the united states said would be a car and see that the west, nothing they would crush, they would destroy due to the power and they had too many across the walls. but we sold today, the russian people covering nicely against the dollars actually

u. s. o n d from his right is to this well, nothing you're told from blinking. he will again say we want israel to conduct the war within humanitarian law, international rules of war. and when the children and women are killed by a time fighting and miss out them, it's hard then for him to stand up and say, well that this is justified. and he realizes that and he realizes how difficult that would be. so that is why he made no mention of this, but yet again, talked about how she might have to the law has to be followed. i was speaking to someone eliot this week from a think tank in washington, who said it's almost like a thing. they have to say they've got to follow humanitarian law international law, but nothing ever happens if the doing so these really is log you that they didn't talk to women and children deliberately. there was some operational reason for what they did. and we may get some sort of explanation from these, or at least in the coming hours. but it's very rare that they would comment immediately after. and of course, we've seen in numerous occasio

this video allegedly shows there's really forces arresting, locals, human and labor rights lawyer from the u. s. done. cobbler believes that new prisoners are essentially more bargaining chips for israel. i read that to. yeah. basically, while they've released, they're actually taking more hostages. the neighbor released at this point, they've taken about a 130 more hostages in the west bank. and let's remember from boss is not in the west bank. yeah, it's not so much a quote uh, but they clearly uh see these hostages leverage. and so they are going to maintain their leverage by essentially maintaining the same number of hostages as they had uh before october, 7th. and many of these are our children and women. people overestimate how much they use rarely government values these rarely hostages. you know that we know that they operate under the handle. ready of principle in which they'll actually shoot, killed civilians in their own soldiers to prevent them from being hostages. right. it's a question, how much leverage those hostages are to begin with. and 2nd, the other leverage hamas has, is f

u. s. position was too early to talk about complete sci fi right now, applause. this is not what we have been hearing from these really leadership, political, and military. the only have been rates are 18 of that to a long and hard war is a, had a news ceasefire before the hostages free. and this is what these really prime minister read to read it again off of the white house announcements. let's take a listen. i would like to set aside all kinds of false rumors that we are hearing from all sorts of directions and re clarify. one thing. there will be no cease fire without the release of our hostages. everything else is false. again, it's not a ceasefire, but it's really made clear and it was not ready for any tours including too many terry. so what we see happening now somewhat contradicts to what israel was preparing the public for a hand. it changed, obviously, due to pressure from washington, but it seems a lot to comes to humanitarian throughs for now. that's the american approach that one in the westbank palestinians. and they is really army, have engaged in

u. s foreign policy in the middle east and military policy in the middle east. easier. all right, so we'll give you uh, the last word just briefly, if you were advising german policy makers on how to go about becoming more independent from the u. s. in terms of germany's defense needs, what concrete recommendations would you make me? so there are many things i think that germany needs to do right now. it has to do with funding and financing. we need to not only reach to 2 percent as it was said, but reach, reach and reliably. um it is still not entirely sure how we're going to do this one . that's the, the special fund runs out. we need to have a societal debate on all things, military and security, and our b b. i'm looking for political guidance on this. this isn't just happening. you know, like this. it really needs to be driven by the political realm. and we do need reforms in the kind of m o d, and how the bonus that works, which is something that is being started right now, but needs to be given to even more. okay, well, thank you very much for that. thank you to everybody w
