1
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 1: Good morning. I'm Brian Curtiz and I'm Doug Krisner. Here

2
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: are the stories we're following today.

3
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:10,800
Speaker 2: Israeli Prime Minister of Benyamin Netanyahu has ruled out a

4
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 2: cease fire and he has refused to resign, which the

5
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 2: opposition has been imploring him to do. Let's get to

6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,799
Speaker 2: Ed Baxter in San Francisco with all the latest.

7
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 3: Dead Yeah, that's right, Brian. And this with a backdrop

8
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 3: of intensified ground operations in Gaza, tanks penetrating deep into Gaza,

9
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 3: and Israeli forces raiding a West Bank, exchanging fire with

10
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 3: Hezbollah across the Lebanese border. Net Yahoo defiant today at

11
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,639
Speaker 3: addressing the nation of the media, I.

12
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,200
Speaker 4: Want to make clear Israel's position regarding the cease fire.

13
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:43,600
Speaker 4: Just as the United States would not agree to a

14
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 4: cease fire after the bombing of Pearl Harbor or after

15
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 4: the terrorist attack of nine eleven, Israel will not agree

16
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 4: to a cessation of ascilities with Kramas after the horrific

17
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 4: attacks of October seventh. Calls for a ceasefire are calls

18
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 4: for Israel well to surrender to Ramas, to surrender to terrorism,

19
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 4: to surrender to barbarism.

20
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 3: That will not happen, and says he will not resign.

21
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 4: The only thing that I intend to have resign is Ramas.

22
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 4: We're going to resign them to the dust benef history.

23
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 4: That's my goal, that's my responsibility, and that's what I'm

24
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:21,319
Speaker 4: leading the country to do.

25
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 3: And then Yahoo says this is a turning point, the

26
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 3: decision to fight or surrender to tyranny. House Republicans are

27
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 3: taking their own path to aid on Israel. House Republicans

28
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 3: introducing a fourteen point three billion dollar aid plan. The

29
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 3: package separates Israel aid from a broader Biden emergency funding

30
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 3: request that includes Ukraine and Taiwan. Bloomber's Jonathan Tamari says,

31
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 3: it's interesting question about separating them and whether aid to

32
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 3: Ukraine now will pass.

33
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 5: The Republicans the only want to put up bills that

34
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 5: have a majority of Republican support, and that's where the

35
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 5: question comes in on Ukraine is that there's been a

36
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 5: lot of skepticism amongst some segments of Republicans towards Ukraine aid,

37
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 5: and so that bill would get enough support I think

38
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 5: from Republicans and Democrats.

39
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 2: Now.

40
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 3: The House bill pays for the Israel aid by cutting

41
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 3: the Biden inflation reduction, calling for a fourteen point three

42
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 3: billion dollar reduction in funding for the IRS in the US.

43
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 3: White House says it is getting reports of arise in

44
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 3: anti Semitic incidents. National Security Spokesman John Kirby says the

45
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 3: administration has doubled down on its commitment to protect the

46
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 3: Jewish community.

47
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 6: It's a deep concern, which is why we as an

48
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 6: administration are working so closely with state and local authorities

49
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 6: to make sure we can identify any threats and disrupt

50
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 6: them before they happen.

51
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 3: Kirby says there's no place for it in America. Saudi

52
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 3: forces say they are on high alert after a clash

53
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 3: with Houthi rebels. Fort Saudi soldiers died in classes in

54
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 3: the Jaizm province on the border with Yemen. The Huthi's

55
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 3: also tried to fire a missile over the Kingdom toward Israel.

56
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,519
Speaker 3: And with a settlement between GM and the UAW today,

57
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 3: all of the Big three are getting ready to go

58
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 3: back to work full forest and President Joe Biden says

59
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 3: a majority of victory for both sides.

60
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 7: These record agreements reward autoworkers who gave up much to

61
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 7: keep the industry working and going during the financial crisis

62
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 7: more than a decade ago. These agreements ensure the iconic

63
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 7: Big Three can still lead the world in quality and innovation.

64
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 3: Biden says, building the economy from the middle out more

65
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 3: details on the deal itself coming up very shortly here

66
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,639
Speaker 3: on Bloomberg Global News twenty four hours a day and

67
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 3: whenever you want it with Bloomberg News Now in San Francisco.

68
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 3: I'm Ed Baxter in this. He is Bloomberg Brian.

69
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 2: Thanks very much. Doud Crissner and I will take a

70
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 2: look at some of the top stories, and Paul Allen

71
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 2: will be joining us in a few moments on the

72
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 2: show as well well. General Motors says it has reached

73
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 2: a tentative agreement with United Auto Workers to end its strike.

74
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: The strike has run six weeks. We hear the deal

75
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 2: includes twenty five percent hourly pay raise plus cost of

76
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 2: living allowances over more than four years of the contract.

77
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 2: We spoke earlier with Bloomberg's David Welch, who says there's

78
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 2: still more work ahead.

79
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,119
Speaker 8: These contracts do. It should takes some time to kind

80
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 8: of get ratified and that sort of think, you know,

81
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 8: and there will be this sort of almost Buzanteine process

82
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 8: where they go about, you know, trying to get everything ratified.

83
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 8: And once that process is in place, then the companies

84
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 8: can kind of start looking at where they're going to

85
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 8: invest to help the ramp things up. And I think

86
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 8: that's you know, it's going to be tough for them

87
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 8: to do just kind of cranking up EV production and

88
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 8: all this sort of stuff. You know, it just takes

89
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 8: a little bit of time to turn the ignition on

90
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 8: these things.

91
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,559
Speaker 2: That's Bloomberg's David Welch. Separately, UAW officials are now urging

92
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 2: all unions in the US to prepare for strikes on

93
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 2: May day of twenty twenty eight, that's when the latest

94
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 2: proposed contracts with the big three automakers are set to expire.

95
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: Trick or treat from Apple, Well, we're about to find out.

96
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: The tech giant is rolling out some new products the

97
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: eve of Halloween. Here's Bloomberg Zed Ludlow in.

98
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 9: The event dubbed Scary Fast. We're expecting a big focus

99
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,479
Speaker 9: on Mac, a new iMac according to Bloomberg's reporting, and

100
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,359
Speaker 9: an updated version of a high end MacBook Pro. We

101
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 9: also expect Apple to debut its latest generation Silicon, the

102
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 9: M three chip, its PC processor. Then move forward to Thursday,

103
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 9: when we get Apple earnings. The expectation is that overall

104
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 9: we see a fourth consecutive quarter of sales decline for Apple.

105
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: That is Bloomberg's ed Ludlow. By the way, Apple shares,

106
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: we're up one percent today and that scary fast event

107
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 1: will kick off at eight pm Wall Street time, and

108
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: of course will be monitoring it for you, Brian Well.

109
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 2: The US Treasury cut its its net borrowing estimate for

110
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 2: the current quarter from eight hundred and fifty two to

111
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 2: seven hundred and seventy six billion dollars. Now, this offers

112
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 2: some relief to investors who are concerned about the rapidly

113
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 2: widening fiscal deficit. Treasury officials said, part of the reason

114
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 2: for this figure is the magnitude of deferred tax receipts

115
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 2: coming from areas of California and other states. These states

116
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: have been granted extensions due to natural disasters, and we've

117
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 2: been talking for the past a week or so about

118
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 2: the refunding announcement on Wednesday. That's when we'll find out

119
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 2: how this money is spread across the various tenors of

120
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 2: those bonds being sold.

121
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 1: Doug Well. President Biden today signed an executive order on

122
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: Artificial intelligence. This will establish standards for both security and

123
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 1: privacy protections. The order will have obviously brought impacts on

124
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: companies developing AI tools. They will be required to first

125
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: safety test new models before releasing them to the public.

126
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,600
Speaker 1: Here is the President on the order.

127
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 7: One thing is clear. To realize the promise of AI

128
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 7: and void the risk, we need to govern this technology

129
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 7: not and there's no other way around it. In my view,

130
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 7: it must be governed.

131
00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: That is President Biden.

132
00:06:59,080 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 4: Now.

133
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: He went on to say that he will meet Tuesday

134
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 1: with Senamajority Leader Chuck Schumer and lawmakers from both parties

135
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: at the White House. They will discuss AI and passing

136
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 1: legislation on privacy concerns.

137
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 2: Ran We saw a pop in the end dollar yen

138
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 2: here one forty nine to six. At the moment. Policymakers

139
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 2: at the Bank of Japan are considering letting ten year

140
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 2: bond yields top the one percent mark. Bloombergs Johan Wong

141
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 2: has more.

142
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 10: The Bank of Japan is said to consider a further

143
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 10: tweaking of its yield curve control policy at its meeting today.

144
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 10: The Nikai newspaper says the central Bank is likely to

145
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 10: allow further flexibility in yield movements. The BOJ is likely

146
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 10: to consider allowing ten year JGB yields to rise above

147
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 10: one percent by modifying its fixed rate buying operations. The

148
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 10: move may prevent the bank from having to buy large

149
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 10: amounts of long term debts. The yen strengthened against the

150
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 10: dollar after the report. Ten year swap rates also received

151
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 10: a boost. Upper pressure on yields has been stronger than

152
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 10: what BOJ Governor Kazuo Oa had expected. In Hong Kong,

153
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 10: Join Wang Bloomberg Radio.

154
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 8: Well.

155
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: Later today, we'll get China's official readings on the PMI

156
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: and analyster expecting these data to show a brief lull

157
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 1: in China's recovery. You'll have to remember the eight day

158
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: holiday at the beginning of the month, yes, and that's

159
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: likely to be behind this anticipated setback. Bloomberg Economics is

00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: projecting the official manufacturing PMI to slip to a reading

161
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 1: of forty nine to nine. That would be down from

162
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: fifty point two in September and would be the first

163
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: drop that we have seen since May. At the same time,

164
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: the non manufacturing PMI is expected to ease to a

165
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: reading a fifty one. That would be down from fifty

166
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: one to seven seven. By the way, separately, the private

167
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: Seisheen Manufacturing PMI could move in the other direction, and

168
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 1: that's because there is a different seasonal adjustment method used

169
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: in that calculation.

170
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 2: I'm Brian Curtis along with Paul Allen, and this is

171
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 2: Bloomberg day Break Asia. Our guest is Jody Schneider, political

172
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: news director for Bloomberg Television and Radio. With us to

173
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 2: look more closely at the Israel Hamas war. Jody, Israel

174
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 2: is definitely facing more pressure to focus on humanitarian considerations,

175
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 2: and so that's one thing. Markets have been a little

176
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 2: bit buoyant here in the past twenty four hours. Yet

177
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 2: at the same time, as you heard from Ed, Israeli

178
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 2: forces have raided a city in the West Bank. They've

179
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 2: exchanged fire with Hesbla across the Lebanese border, and also

180
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 2: conducted an air strike in Syria. So it seems that

181
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 2: we have both restraint and escalation, which seems a little oxymoronic,

182
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: but I guess that's war.

183
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think that's exactly what we're seeing, Brian. We're

184
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 11: seeing both on the US forces at US and Allied forces,

185
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 11: telling us that Israel is moving ahead with this next phase,

186
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 11: and even as the UN warns that this war is

187
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 11: spreading and this humanitarian crisis, Israel is promising more aid

188
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 11: even as it steps up those attacks. They're except there.

189
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 11: Ron Durmer, the Strategic Affairs Minister, told us that the

190
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 11: aid shipments to Gaza are set to pick up somewhat

191
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 11: one hundred trucks a day of aid starting tomorrow or Wednesday, which,

192
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 11: of course, at this stage you know, is still a

193
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 11: proverbial drop in the bucket, but they said they expect

194
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 11: that and they expect that to continue. Durmer also said

195
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 11: that the next several days should see the lowest number

196
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 11: of civilian casualties of war, which is an interesting statement

197
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 11: to make, though he acknowledged that unanticipated effects may affect

198
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 11: the outlook. So this is what Israel has had a

199
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 11: lot of criticism for is the civilians, the large number

200
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,319
Speaker 11: of civilians that have died as they have gone further

201
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:54,079
Speaker 11: into Gaza. And this is something that the US has

202
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 11: also been concerned about and has been urging Israel to,

203
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 11: you know, think of a different think of different strategies.

204
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 11: Uh as it goes into Gaza, given the civilian you know,

205
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,559
Speaker 11: and the whole humanitarian crisis that is occurring there.

206
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 6: We were hearing from Benjaminet earlier and at Baxter's newscast,

207
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 6: and he's pushing back on suggestions that he resign over

208
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 6: the security breach that started this whole conflict. How how

209
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 6: strong is his position right now? Is he likely to

210
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 6: see out this entire conflict?

211
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,839
Speaker 11: Yeah, hard to know, Paul. But one of the things

212
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,479
Speaker 11: that of course provoked these questions was over the weekend

213
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 11: the Prime Minister criticized when you know, when when asked,

214
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 11: was actually criticized the the army. He criticized it for

215
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 11: some of the the or the armed forces there, for

216
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 11: some of the intelligence failures, and that that was very

217
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 11: you know, that went online and very quickly taken down

218
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 11: and then he apologized. But there's a lot of anger

219
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 11: in Israel over how this intelligence failure occurred, sort of,

220
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,559
Speaker 11: and a lot of it directed toward him and his government,

221
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,599
Speaker 11: given that he had really been pushing for this judicial

222
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 11: the so called judicial reform, and had been focusing on

223
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 11: that rather than military matters. So some found it very

224
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 11: ironic that he was then pointing the finger at the

225
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 11: military itself, so when this is what provoked these questions today,

226
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 11: But he came out and made it very clear he's

227
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 11: not resigning, making that statement. The only thing I intend

228
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 11: to have resign as Hamas. So it looks like for

229
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 11: now he has no intention of doing that. It is

230
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 11: a war cabinet he is in right now. They're not

231
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 11: doing anything except military related activities, taking up no other matters.

232
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 2: Well, he always does defiance very well, Benjamin Natanyahu. From

233
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 2: the US point of view, US forces have been attacked

234
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 2: by Iran backed militias, and we had a senior defense

235
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 2: official saying was twenty three times since October seventeenth, Yet

236
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 2: most of the attacks failed to hit their targets. So

237
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 2: is the US approaching this from well, it's terrible that

238
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 2: we've been attacked so many times, or it's actually good

239
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 2: because these militias are not very good in getting their

240
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 2: targets to hit the mart Yeah.

241
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 11: I think it's a little bit of both. Actually, I mean,

242
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 11: they're obviously relieved that most of these attacks did fail

243
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 11: to hit those targets. But the bigger concern is this

244
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 11: escalation of the Israeljamas war. And as we know, last

245
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 11: week the US conducted strikes and two facilities in Syria

246
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 11: that the administration is concerned are used by groups affiliated

247
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 11: with Iranian forces, And of course we've heard from the

248
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 11: Syrian side there's concerns, there's concerns about Hesbalah in the north.

249
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 11: So this is a real worry from the US that

250
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 11: this could get out of control and out of control

251
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 11: pretty quickly.

252
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 6: You mentioned the precision of aid into Gaza or moment ago,

253
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 6: we've only got about thirty seconds left. But what about

254
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 6: the opportunities for refugees to get out. That's still not

255
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 6: really an option, is it not?

256
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 8: Really?

257
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 11: This is really, this is a huge problem. This is

258
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 11: what's leaving the UN another and relief for organizations to

259
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 11: be very, very concerned because people in Gasa are basically

260
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 11: stuck there for the time being.
