i don't have any new deployments to announce that this time is, you know, we have position the u. s. s. ford carrier strike group. in the eastern mediterranean, we're sending the u. s. s. i, as in our carrier strike group to the us central command region. in addition to deploying approximately 900 forces into the middle east to provide air defense capabilities. importantly, those forces are not going to israel. they do not have anything to do with the situation there. they are for force protection purposes and again, to provide us with options to defend our forces and send a deterrent message. again, i want to emphasize our focus here is on preventing a broader regional conflict. in addition to providing military capabilities, we are actively communicating with our partners in the region to seek advice and their thoughts on how best to ensure that it does not wide into a broader conflict. appreciating all the expertise and insight that are partners throughout the middle east have in terms of these types of situations. so again, right now the situation is contained with israel and home

stay, why is the united states move the u. s. s gerald are forward to this theater, into the mediterranean and, or what do you, what do you think it gets you? well, hopefully it doesn't have to be used in any way. but i do think it's a way of signaling american interest. it's a hedge against some possible outcomes, whether or not, you know, american citizens were endangered and had to be rescued. whether or not the war does escalate in a way that starts to threaten other american interested in the region. i don't think the bite and investigation believes that it's actually going to need be needed. but if it is needed, they wanted it to be there and it is way a way of signaling support, you know, for israel as well, which is something they're clearly trying to do. you know, one of the things i've learned from you over the years is how unexpected events can be triggered that, that'd be comp, have massive consequence down the road. i've been watching some things that were there and not reported much anywhere related to this, but no, t

the u . s. s. gerald or for an aircraft carrier to the eastern mediterranean. so is the surprise attack leading to something g, a strategically larger out of the big players in the region like iran, russia, saudi arabia and the united states, fit into this bigger picture. today we're talking to steven wall, professor of international relations at harvard university and author of several books, including the israel lobby and u. s. foreign policy and the hell of good intentions, american foreign policy elite, and the decline of us primacy. a professor. well, i really appreciate you being here. we've had many discussions on the geostrategic fault lines in the world and how the different players are moving. so we have another we, russian right now of a hot conflict in the middle east, which you know, so well, does this particular hot conflict between hamas and israel mean anything different today than the many others that have preceded it in the past? yeah, i think this is different for a variety of different reasons. mean, 1st of all, i think it is shattered of th

u. s. has dispatched it's the navy's newest and most advanced carrier, the u. s. s. gerald are ford, so how ford often escalation of the conflict advance weaponry has landed in israel as well. beyond the necessity of supporting a strong response, analyst barbara slaven said she hopes that behind the scenes calls for restraint and the importance of preserving civilian lives are being made by the administration has done a good job so far of conducting the atrocities that were committed. calling them pure evil in this hour of israel's extreme need. i am hopeful that they are also private messages that are being sent to the israelis not to let their desire for vengeance overcome both their morality and their strategic thinking. because there is going to be a need to pick up the piece is when this is all over. and there has to be interlocutors for the as rallies, the united states and others to try to restore some kind of calm and to project some kind of positive future for the palestinians going forward. otherwise, we're going to see this, this har, a movie, over and o

u. s. has already deployed the carrier, the u. s. s. general, our ford in the eastern mediterranean, near is around the us as dwight d eisenhower has been pulled up to join the forward as well. in addition, the range of all the us warships about 8, so on their way into the region. so what do these us ministry deployments mean and what are the risks of a why the spillover of the conflict into the region? to answer those questions, i'm joined by christine our colleagues from the think tank, the john marshall fund of the united states because you know, lots to unpack here. i'd like to look at the us ministry role in particular, fast, very simply. what exactly is it as well, 1st of all, the deployment of, of aircraft carriers and of, of military capabilities, the middle east and reaction to the i have a mazda tax on it. so on october 7th, by the united states is a measure off re establishing the terms the attacks by whom us, as you know, were very much of a surprise to the is there any utilities and mail terry adds to the region and to the

i don't have any new deployments to announce at this time is you know, we have position the u. s. s. ford carrier strike group in the eastern mediterranean. we're sending the u. s. s. i, as in our carrier strike group to the us central command region. in addition to deploying approximately 900 forces into the middle east to provide air defense capabilities. importantly, those forces are not going to israel. they do not have anything to do with the situation there. they are for force protection purposes and again to provide us with options to defend our forces and send a deterrent message. again, i want to emphasize our focus here is on preventing a broader regional conflict. in addition to providing military capabilities, we are actively communicating with our partners in the region to seek advice and their thoughts on how best to ensure that it does not wide into a broader conflict. appreciating all the expertise and insight that are partners throughout the middle east have in terms of these types of situations. so again, right now the situation is contained with israel and home us

now we know that the aircraft carrier, the u. s. s. gerald or ford is on its way to the mediterranean to the, to the east mediterranean. now this is the navy's most advanced and us aircraft carrier. it has more than 5000 sailors and a deck of war planes. it's accompanied by cruisers and destroyers, and it's a major show of support for israel having this carrier strike group close by. would uh, be helpful in any number of things, including surveillance, including blocking more weapons from reaching home us, or even evacuation operations. there's also reporting that the is really government once more, emergency funding from washington, in order to help in buying more interceptors for its iron, don't miss silent defense system. reportedly washington is receptive to this request. now the us already gives israel more than $6000000000.00 in military assistance a year with much of the equipment from that funding already in the pipeline according to, to be sent to israel, according to the secretary of state antony blinking. but of course, dep

that he told that in yahoo that more help was on the way at the moment the us aircraft carrier, the u. s. s. gerald r ford. that is the navy's most the most advanced and us aircraft carrier. it has more than 5000 sailors and a deck of war planes. it is now headed to the eastern mediterranean, accompanied by cruisers and destroyers. that is a major show of support for israel, a having that carrier strike group there could help with anything from surveillance to blocking more weapons from reaching homos to aiding evacuation operations. there are also reports that i taught there is really government wants more emergency funding from the us to buy more interceptors for its iron uh iron during this whole defense system. washington is reportedly receptive to this request. now the 2 leaders said they'll remain in close contact over the next days, but depending on how the war develops, that list of aid from the u. s. to israel could obviously expand further down the 1st bonded janelle, or do it on their reporting from washington dc. thank you, janelle, here's an overview of the latest developments.

u. s. has dispatched it to me, these newest and most advanced carrier, the u. s. s. barrels are ford. so help ford often escalation of the conflict. advanced weaponry has landed in israel as well. but beyond the necessity of supporting a strong response, analysts barbara's leaving says she hopes that behind the scenes calls for restraint. and the importance of preserving civilian lives are being made by the administration has done a good job so far of conducting the atrocities that were committed calling them pure evil in this hour of israel's extreme need. i am hopeful that they are also private messages that are being sent to the israelis not to let their desire for vengeance overcome both their morality and their strategic thinking. because there is going to be a need to pick up the pieces when this is all over. and there has to be interlocutors for the as rallies, the united states and others to try to restore some kind of calm and to project some kind of positive future for the palestinians going forward. otherwise, we're going to see this, this har, a movie, over and over again.

i don't have any new deployments to announce at this time is you know, we have position the u. s. s. ford carrier strike group in the eastern mediterranean. we're sending the u. s. s. i, as in our carrier strike group to the us central command region. in addition to deploying approximately 900 forces into the middle east to provide air defense capabilities. importantly, those forces are not going to israel. they do not have anything to do with the situation there. they are for force protection purposes and again to provide us with options to defend our forces and send a deterrent message. again, i want to emphasize our focus here is on preventing a broader regional conflict. in addition to providing military capabilities, we are actively communicating with our partners in the region to seek advice and their thoughts on how best to ensure that it does not wide into a broader conflict. appreciating all the expertise and insight that are partners throughout the middle east have in terms of these types of situations. so again, right now the situation is contained with israel and her bos

it is well intensified as ground it as hawks with tyler called blackouts, hindering local west u. s. s. o. so this out we see that instead of punishing terrorist and criminals, unfortunately, israel began to take revenge on the principle of collective responsibility versus presidents who didn't speak south against the bloodshed in the middle east of accused us to your west 7th claiming pretensions to put those it's the very welcome, this is all to you international with the latest. well, the thing is that they just get to happy with us. and we start with the latest from the israel palestine conflict. the minutes include from us, has released the video, is sensitive separately as rarely hostages. they accuse a permanent significant yahoo, if policy failures that have kept them in cub, tennessee. if you need anything else to benjamin netanyahu. hello, we have been in her mos captivity for 23 days. yesterday there was a press conference for the families of the prisoners. and we know that there was supposed to be a ceasefire. and you were suppose to release that says you promised. however,

in the red sea, there was a us warship, the u. s. s. connie, which took down for atlanta tech cruise missiles. we think they came from the who this is that your understanding? yeah, it seems likely it's confident with previous behavior at actions by the who these and for the united states that just unacceptable, it's not going to allow it's personnel or a space has to be targeted by any actor in the region. and all not collin. um, do we know what the, who sees what aiming at because of the us. the pentagon spokesman, again said they took them down, but they didn't necessarily think they were aimed at the economy and they were going in the direction of his route to your knowledge. do that who sees have and nothing, but could it is ro it's possible. i think, you know, they is there, they very well could have been headed that way. i think, you know, one thing that this whole conflict has taught us is that we need to question prior assumptions, right? i think many people didn't think come off said the capabilities that are displayed on octo

so as a result, we know that the u. s. s 0 for that is a, it's a ship that this is sort of a, a carrier ship that is as well as the spring proof being positioned in the eastern mediterranean to kind of minimize the risk of this sort of broadening out and really causing regional instability. which is a major concern for the united states next to the what to expect from present to advise and today as well. we do know that he is expected to address the american people and really the world, the to, to talk about this incidents. he has been spending the weekend making roughly 2 dozen calls with world leaders meeting with his national security team holding briefings. this is really one of the biggest foreign policy crises of his presidency and he's had to react in real time. and so what we expect the president to say is that he will be standing shoulder to shoulder with these really leaders. and these really governments, as they respond to this crisis, that you will call this attack an evil act. and that the united states opposes

the u. s. s. general ford, we've got another um, aircraft carrier. so 2 at croft carriers, the dwight d eisenhower, which is also that. and then i think a total of 8 warships in that to start groups. and then we've got something called about time to be as ready group, which has on 3 ships, a total of full 1000 sailors and marines on it. this is, this is a very large deployment, isn't it coming? yeah, so it's a massive, muscular response from washington multiple carrier strike groups. uh, you know, patriot batteries fed missile defense. there's only about, oh, i wouldn't get allowed. you all can just tell me what side is please quickly, terminal high altitude air defense missile missile defense. essentially, the force protection turns and then if need be some potential offensive assets. there's also intelligent surveillance and reconnaissance on these carriers trade groups as well. so all around preparation from washington, in case things do escalate and cold and staying with you, what is your reading of the main reason for sending so much to the regi

u. s. has dispatched, it's the navy's newest and most advanced carrier, the u. s. s. gerald are ford to help ford off and escalation of the conflict. advanced weaponry has landed in israel as well. but beyond the necessity of supporting a strong response, analyst barbara slaven said she hopes that behind the scenes calls for restraint and the importance of preserving civilian lives are being made by the administration has done a good job so far, of conducting the atrocities that were committed calling them pure evil in this hour of israel's extreme need. i am hopeful that they are also private messages that are being sent to the israelis not to let their desire for vengeance overcome both their morality and their strategic thinking. because there is going to be a need to pick up the pieces when this is all over. and there has to be interlock orders for the as rallies, the united states and others to try to restore some kind of calm and to project some kind of positive future for the palestinians going forward. otherwise, we're going to see this, this har, a movie, o

u. s. , they're both u. s. allies. but one has a nato consensus and a broad backing of support. this one is much more divided. and the u. s. is much more vulnerable and more likely to get pulled in. >> that's really sound analysis. i'm so glad we got a chance to talk to you tonight. richard engel, thanks very much. ronald klain served as white house chief of staff and president biden and he joins me now. i said at the top, last hour, these are extremely difficult issues, extremely difficult politics and diplomacy. but that's the job of president. how do you understand ronal klain the goal of tonight's speech? >> i agree with me earlier before this page which is a time like this i say thank god joe biden's president, not donald trump. i thought that what so tonight was a safe and experienced president navigating some very difficult territory, doing so in a way that was persuasive and effective. i think he did everything he had to do in the speech. what unites the israeli conflict and the ukrainian conflict is that both need our support. the president into a funding bill from congr

u. s. e, a vote against the u. s. a draft resolution was an important issue that tells you even the closest allies of the united states, they're not happy with the behavior of the united states. the live alone with isn't in the how many to say um we appreciate you being with us giving us the benefit of analysis. thank you very much. indeed with being with us deals on audra 0. thank you. now diplomatic efforts are continuing around the world, you know, being leaders and living in brussels. they're expected to call for the establishment of humanitarian caught of doors and pauses, and the bomb bomb and gas. a list of options in brussel issues following developments. a no cold for a ceasefire coming from russell's nor a condemnation over the thousands of civilians as in gaza due to his wally bombardments. so what lead us here in brussels hope to agree on is some kind of human to terry and pause all pauses. the is a huge disagreement among division among the leaders here, a part of the, the group to lead by germany, which

as take a look at some of the stories making headlines, s u. s. presidential biden says, american aid to ukraine will continue despite the stop gap deal congress passed to prevent a government shut down, the measure does not include any money for ukraine for the next $45.00 days by the end of lawmakers to negotiate in a package. as soon as possible. yes. the your opinions before and policy chief is joseph brazzel. as said the, you will increase its military support for ukraine. he to the us to reconsider its 8 reduction, but i was in ukraine to mont, day of defend as honoring veterans and falling members of the armed forces. and the 7 people have been killed in mexico after the charge. they were in collapsed the roof of the building gave way while parishioners were receiving communion. 100 people were inside at the time you, rocky protest as if scuffled at the riot police in baghdad on the 4th anniversary of nationwide anti government demonstrations is seeking justice for hundreds of active as to what killed by the security forces or disappeared

u. s e 's while impose economy and cultural sanctions again. so that's recall all of these largely symbolic but they were presented. another step in these really is glad to move away from the close relationship it had with the static and government in its defense. here's how it is really need to put to, to get simpler to every decision is not between to fix it. stations, every choices between 2, imperfect alternatives. at that time, the movement of black south africa was, was our thought against us. actually, we didn't have much of a choice, but we never stopped denouncing about sites. we never agreed with it. but what the doctor can think about all of this, i think that most of them are here to the apartheid regime and an opportunistic reasons. they saw apartheid in south africa as being a bulwark for the type of agenda that the western countries, the imperialist, wanted to have an apricots which was to avoid true freedom to establish a form of neil colonialism. and they wanted to work with the apartheid government because they saw that real f

u. s. i o. s coal. you're calling me from the us, but let's hope that this will change. so how, because, you know, euro is destroying itself and the weapons they have sent already the last one. i know how to use it. it's crazy. so they run out of the weapons and also, you know, the north stream pipeline is gone. so germany is a big mess of the country or uh, or the netherlands. this is another for, they are the most uh, russian. i hate things country. uh the each. uh, because we have the billing and the 817, uh this austin. so they still try, you know, still trying and saying because of the induced a promise to the f sixteens. but the people, the majority of the people, they don't, they don't believe unit anymore. if they even released it, i don't think so. so i don't see it happening and i see it happening this days somehow. the terrorist that's most likely will happen in the near future. you know, brian, one of the, you know, you're a former us marine. i don't know what a part of the us means you were in, but i mean it will, although you last year and a half. i mean, d

u. s. is because the u. s. has laid waste of their economy, has through the sanctions through all kinds of military interventions and crews made desperate conditions in the countries of the global south. so people come here not willingly, but literally for their survival of their families. it's us policies around the world that are the cause of migrants trying to come anywhere where they can find work to europe, to the us, to more developed economies. but it's because their own countries have already been so thoroughly looted, colonized that really is what's going on and you see the response today throughout the so how in, in west africa, where people are telling the french and the us a needle to get out. so i think we got to connect the dots in terms of the migrants who come here for a better life and what's been done to their lives at home and what the us war policies create and, and what us sanctions, policies create in terms of real hunger in countries around the world. yeah. so i interesting the point you
