WEBVTT - Pressure Grows for Continued Cease-Fire; Musk in Israel

0:00:02.480 --> 0:00:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Good morning.

0:00:03.080 --> 0:00:06.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Amy Morris. Here are the

0:00:06.080 --> 0:00:07.680
<v Speaker 2>stories we're following today.

0:00:08.320 --> 0:00:11.119
<v Speaker 1>First, the latest developments out of the Middle East. Israel

0:00:11.119 --> 0:00:14.280
<v Speaker 1>and Hamas are signaling that a temporary ceasefire could be

0:00:14.400 --> 0:00:18.599
<v Speaker 1>extended beyond today. Under the current agreement, Hamas is releasing

0:00:18.640 --> 0:00:21.439
<v Speaker 1>fifty hostages in exchange for one hundred and fifty Israeli

0:00:21.480 --> 0:00:24.880
<v Speaker 1>held prisoners. President Biden says he's aiming for this break

0:00:24.880 --> 0:00:26.079
<v Speaker 1>in fighting to continue.

0:00:26.440 --> 0:00:30.080
<v Speaker 3>Critically, nay, today is going in and hostages are coming out,

0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:33.320
<v Speaker 3>and there's still structured so that it can be extended

0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:36.920
<v Speaker 3>to keep building on these results. That's my goal, that's

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:39.519
<v Speaker 3>our goal, to keep this pause going beyond tomorrow.

0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:43.479
<v Speaker 1>When President Biden spoke yesterday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,

0:00:43.520 --> 0:00:45.720
<v Speaker 1>who signaled an extension was possible.

0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:49.640
<v Speaker 2>Meanwhile, Israel is coming under increasing pressure to agree to

0:00:49.680 --> 0:00:52.120
<v Speaker 2>an extension of a four day pause in it's war

0:00:52.159 --> 0:00:55.240
<v Speaker 2>with Amas. We get more from Bloomberg's Simon Marx and

0:00:55.280 --> 0:00:55.840
<v Speaker 2>Tel Aviv.

0:00:56.360 --> 0:01:01.600
<v Speaker 4>Israel is under some pressure to continue to slow drip

0:01:02.000 --> 0:01:04.800
<v Speaker 4>releasing hostages. There is still a lot of public pressure

0:01:04.840 --> 0:01:08.600
<v Speaker 4>here to get many more released, and the families and

0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:11.400
<v Speaker 4>the victims of the hostage families are still very active.

0:01:11.600 --> 0:01:14.560
<v Speaker 2>Bloomberg. Simon mar says, so far Hamas has handed over

0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:18.640
<v Speaker 2>fifty eight hostages, including non Israelis. It is slated to

0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:23.000
<v Speaker 2>free another eleven Israelis today to fulfill the four day Agreement.

0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:27.039
<v Speaker 1>And in Washington, the issue of Israeli aid maybe getting

0:01:27.120 --> 0:01:30.240
<v Speaker 1>more complicated. Bloomberg zed Baxter has that story.

0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:34.360
<v Speaker 5>Senator Chris Murphy is saying lawmakers should consider conditioning future

0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 5>aid to Israel based on compliance with international humanitarian law.

0:01:39.400 --> 0:01:43.240
<v Speaker 6>I think there's both a moral cost to this, many civilians,

0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:45.800
<v Speaker 6>innocent civilians, children often losing their life, but I think

0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:49.960
<v Speaker 6>there's a strategic cost. Ultimately, Hamas will get stronger, not weaker,

0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:53.440
<v Speaker 6>in the long run if all of this civilian death

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 6>allows them to recruit more effectively, enablely inside Gaza.

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:05.160
<v Speaker 5>Murphy on CNN civilian death toll must stop, ed Baxter

0:02:05.200 --> 0:02:06.760
<v Speaker 5>Bloomberg Radio, Thanks D.

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:10.400
<v Speaker 2>Another complicating factor in aid to Israel and Ukraine is

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:14.000
<v Speaker 2>a dispute over security at the southern border. Republicans in

0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:18.000
<v Speaker 2>Congress want to tie foreign military assistance to tougher border policies.

0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:21.240
<v Speaker 2>On NBC's Meet the Press House Intelligence Chair Mike Turner

0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:23.960
<v Speaker 2>said it will be tough to pass the AID before

0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:27.000
<v Speaker 2>the end of this year. While the issue remains unresolved.

0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Man Amy events in the Middle East may be forcing

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:32.040
<v Speaker 1>President Biden to skip an event he's attended the past

0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:34.239
<v Speaker 1>two years. According to The New York Times, a White

0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:36.840
<v Speaker 1>House official says the President will not be at the

0:02:36.840 --> 0:02:39.760
<v Speaker 1>COP twenty eighth Climate summit in Dubai. The official didn't

0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.400
<v Speaker 1>say why, but senior aids are suggesting the Israel Hamas

0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:44.680
<v Speaker 1>war has consumed the president in recent weeks.

0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:47.920
<v Speaker 2>Meanwhile, Elon Musk will today meet with the Israel with

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:51.919
<v Speaker 2>Israel's Prime Minister and president, as well as representatives of

0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:55.160
<v Speaker 2>the families of hostages held in Gaza. The closed door

0:02:55.280 --> 0:02:57.640
<v Speaker 2>meeting appears to be an effort to diffuse a growing

0:02:57.720 --> 0:03:01.480
<v Speaker 2>backlash over the billionaire's endorsement of an anti Semitic tweet.

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:05.280
<v Speaker 2>While Musk has drawn support from notable figures including hedge

0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:09.680
<v Speaker 2>fund manager Bill Ackman, others, including British Prime Minister Rishi Sunek,

0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:13.200
<v Speaker 2>say that Tesla and SpaceX chief should not be given

0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:14.640
<v Speaker 2>a pass because of who he is.

0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:17.440
<v Speaker 7>I don't tend to get in the business of scrutinizing

0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:19.960
<v Speaker 7>what every single person says who I've interacted with. Of

0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:22.639
<v Speaker 7>course I bore anti Semitism. It doesn't matter whether you're

0:03:22.919 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 7>Elil Musk or you or someone on the street who's

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:27.720
<v Speaker 7>shouting abuse that someone who happens to be walking past you.

0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:30.160
<v Speaker 7>That's wrong in all its forms. Antisemitism in all its

0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:32.240
<v Speaker 7>forms is completely and utterly wrong.

0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:35.440
<v Speaker 2>So next careful criticism comes just weeks after the British

0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:38.839
<v Speaker 2>Prime Minister had a fireside conversation with Musk at the

0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:40.160
<v Speaker 2>UKAI summit.

0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:43.560
<v Speaker 1>Turning to markets, amy stocks are going higher. That's the

0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:46.880
<v Speaker 1>call from Deutsche Bank. The firm's strategists, including Binkie Chata,

0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:48.880
<v Speaker 1>predict the S and P five hundred will rally to

0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:51.480
<v Speaker 1>a record fifty one hundred by the end of next year.

0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:55.040
<v Speaker 1>That's about twelve percent above current levels. Chata says stock

0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:58.400
<v Speaker 1>valuations are not high and earnings are growing solidly.

0:03:59.040 --> 0:04:01.680
<v Speaker 2>Meanwhile, Wall Street it returns to work with lots of

0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:04.960
<v Speaker 2>economic data and plenty of earnings reports. We get a

0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:07.120
<v Speaker 2>preview from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellett.

0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:10.080
<v Speaker 8>Tech earnings will be in focus this week, with z

0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:15.520
<v Speaker 8>Scaler and crowd Strike holdings underscoring how businesses are prioritizing

0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:20.480
<v Speaker 8>cybersecurity after recent high profile corporate hacks. Among the other

0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:25.080
<v Speaker 8>technology companies reporting this week Salesforce and Dell. In New

0:04:25.160 --> 0:04:27.200
<v Speaker 8>York Charlie Pellette Bloomberg Radio.

0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Charlie, thanks for also keeping an eye on retailers today. Well,

0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:34.719
<v Speaker 1>because it's cyber Monday. The huge online spending day comes

0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:38.600
<v Speaker 1>after shoppers spend a record online on Black Friday. More

0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:40.200
<v Speaker 1>on that from Bloomberg's Eddie vendor Wald.

0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:42.800
<v Speaker 9>What we're seeing is that US consumers spend a record

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:49.080
<v Speaker 9>nine point one billion dollars online. That's according to Adobe Analytics.

0:04:49.279 --> 0:04:53.719
<v Speaker 9>It's a record so far. But we're seeing two interesting trends.

0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:56.200
<v Speaker 9>Number One, a lot of people are spending on buy now,

0:04:56.320 --> 0:05:00.880
<v Speaker 9>pay later, and we are seeing them buying less luxury

0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:04.240
<v Speaker 9>items with this spending. So it feels like the consumer

0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:07.239
<v Speaker 9>is starting to feel the pitch and rather than going

0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:10.320
<v Speaker 9>out spending big money is saying, look, this might be

0:05:10.360 --> 0:05:14.080
<v Speaker 9>a good opportunity to start cutting back out of spending.

0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:17.680
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg's Eddie vander Walt says global Black Friday sales rose

0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:21.360
<v Speaker 1>twenty two percent, led by clothing, personal care, and jewelry.

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:25.520
<v Speaker 2>The owner of TikTok is cutting jobs. Bye Dance plans

0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:28.599
<v Speaker 2>to eliminate hundreds of positions in gaming and wind down

0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:32.400
<v Speaker 2>at Showpee s brand Uverse. The closure marks by Dan's

0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:36.040
<v Speaker 2>biggest retreat from a once booming gaming industry dominated by

0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:39.120
<v Speaker 2>ten Cent and at smaller faux net Ease. Sources say

0:05:39.120 --> 0:05:42.039
<v Speaker 2>the Chinese company intends to announce the cuts later today.

0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:47.480
<v Speaker 2>Time now for a look at some of the other

0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:49.760
<v Speaker 2>stories making news around the world, and for that we're

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:51.520
<v Speaker 2>joined by Bloomberg's John Tucker.

0:05:51.560 --> 0:05:54.479
<v Speaker 10>Good morning Job, Hey, Good morning Amy. The US is

0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:58.320
<v Speaker 10>investigating whether Iran was behind an incident in which missiles

0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:02.240
<v Speaker 10>were fired near the Navy destroy USS Mason. The Mason

0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:05.280
<v Speaker 10>intervene to stop the hijacking of a commercial cargo ship

0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:08.679
<v Speaker 10>by pirates in the Gulf of Aidenere, Somalia on Sunday,

0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:12.520
<v Speaker 10>after which two ballistic missiles were fired from Yemen tour

0:06:12.600 --> 0:06:15.560
<v Speaker 10>the Navy destroyer. The ballistic missiles were fired from the

0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:18.960
<v Speaker 10>part of Yemen controlled by Iranian backed Hutu rebels. They

0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:21.640
<v Speaker 10>fell well short of the mark. We could be looking

0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:24.719
<v Speaker 10>at a shakeup in the battery industry that's critical for

0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:28.160
<v Speaker 10>the energy transition battery giants are starting to put their

0:06:28.200 --> 0:06:31.719
<v Speaker 10>money on a new sodium based technology. Let's get more

0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:33.960
<v Speaker 10>in this report from Bloomberg's Denise Pellegrini.

0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:38.080
<v Speaker 11>Sodium from rock salt and brines is cheaper and way

0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:41.520
<v Speaker 11>more abundant than the lithium widely used now in batteries.

0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:44.240
<v Speaker 11>But in the past week alone, Sweden's Northfold said it

0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:47.359
<v Speaker 11>made a breakthrough, and China's ev maker BYD signed a

0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:50.039
<v Speaker 11>deal to build a one point four billion dollar sodium

0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:54.080
<v Speaker 11>ion battery plant. Also, China's coatl said back in April

0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:56.839
<v Speaker 11>at sodium based batteries would be used in some vehicles

0:06:56.880 --> 0:07:00.320
<v Speaker 11>starting this year. This could all hit lithium demand Hardloomberg

0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:02.880
<v Speaker 11>GETTYF has said sodium could cut hundreds of thousands of

0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:06.600
<v Speaker 11>tons of lithium demand by twenty thirty five. Denise Pellegridy

0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:07.400
<v Speaker 11>Bloomberg Radio.

0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:10.520
<v Speaker 10>This post Thanksgiving travel rush could be won for the books.

0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:13.480
<v Speaker 10>American Airlines said that it flew six and a half

0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:17.080
<v Speaker 10>million customers over the holiday, the highest ever for the airline.

0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:20.080

<v Speaker 2>I have never had this much of a weight.

0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why.

0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:31.280

<v Speaker 2>John stash hour Amy.

0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:37.400
<v Speaker 12>The game of the day was in Philadelphia. The Eagles

0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:40.240
<v Speaker 12>trailed Buffalo by ten points in the fourth quarter, trailed

0:08:40.280 --> 0:08:43.120
<v Speaker 12>by three with twenty seconds to go when Jake Elliott

0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:45.360
<v Speaker 12>tied the game with a fifty nine yard field goal.

0:08:45.640 --> 0:08:48.920
<v Speaker 12>Philly also trailed in overtime, but Jalen Hurt scored a

0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:52.080
<v Speaker 12>touchdown and the Eagles beat the Bills thirty seven to thirty.

0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:52.320
<v Speaker 8>Fourth.

0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:55.679
<v Speaker 12>Philly is ten and one. The Bill's having a disappointing

0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:59.280
<v Speaker 12>season at six and six. The Patriots having a really

0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:00.360
<v Speaker 12>disappointing season.

0:09:00.360 --> 0:09:01.560
<v Speaker 13>They are two to nine.

0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:04.720
<v Speaker 12>Lost to the Giants ten to seven when Chad Ryland

0:09:04.720 --> 0:09:07.400
<v Speaker 12>missed a thirty five yard field goal with three seconds

0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:09.800
<v Speaker 12>to go. Ravens last night improved to nine and three.

0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:13.079
<v Speaker 12>They beat the Chargers twenty to ten. The Steelers are

0:09:13.120 --> 0:09:16.320
<v Speaker 12>seven and four, all seven wins by seven points or less.

0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:18.839

0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:21.040
<v Speaker 1>This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager. Today

0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:24.000
<v Speaker 1>is scheduled to be the final full day of a

0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:27.400
<v Speaker 1>four day truce between Israel and Hamas, but after the

0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:31.320
<v Speaker 1>release of dozens of hostages from Gaza, including a four

0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:35.000
<v Speaker 1>year old American Israeli girl. Both sides are now signaling

0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.640
<v Speaker 1>this pause could be extended. And for the latest, we're

0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:41.920
<v Speaker 1>joined from Tel Aviv by Bloomberg News reporter Simon Marx. Simon,

0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:44.520
<v Speaker 1>good morning. What is the likelihood that we could see

0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:47.040
<v Speaker 1>an extension given the number of hostages that have been

0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:47.920
<v Speaker 1>released so far?

0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:54.160
<v Speaker 4>Well, so far, the chances of this taking place seem

0:10:54.440 --> 0:10:58.120
<v Speaker 4>to be making some good progress. Hamas has released a

0:10:58.160 --> 0:11:00.440
<v Speaker 4>statement saying that in theory they would have greed to

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:05.679
<v Speaker 4>an extension, and Israel, for the whole way along this

0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:08.840
<v Speaker 4>current truce, has said that it would be open to

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:13.920
<v Speaker 4>further days, So we're talking about ten per day for

0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:18.320
<v Speaker 4>up to ten days. You know, diplomats in the city

0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:22.760
<v Speaker 4>do expect that we will see one or two more days.

0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:24.840
<v Speaker 4>It's a little unclear whether we're going to get to

0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:27.680
<v Speaker 4>the full ten. But there is obviously a lot of

0:11:27.720 --> 0:11:30.640
<v Speaker 4>pressure on the government of Benjamin Netta and Yahoo to

0:11:30.679 --> 0:11:33.400
<v Speaker 4>continue the release of the hostages, with the families still

0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:35.840
<v Speaker 4>campaigning and very vocal on this front.

0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's happening on the outside. Talk a little bit

0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:42.120
<v Speaker 1>more about as well, the behind the scenes pressure that's

0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:47.920
<v Speaker 1>happening with Israel and Hamas to potentially secure a further ceasefire.

0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:48.760
<v Speaker 10>Yeah.

0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:51.840
<v Speaker 4>I think the main reason for this is that the

0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:56.280
<v Speaker 4>international community would like to see more aid get into Gaza. Obviously,

0:11:57.160 --> 0:12:01.000
<v Speaker 4>the strip has been pounded for weeks now, there's still

0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:03.440
<v Speaker 4>at least one hundred thousand people in the north with

0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:07.600
<v Speaker 4>very very limited access to any form of humanitarian care,

0:12:07.920 --> 0:12:10.040
<v Speaker 4>and then in the south you've got over a million

0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:15.679
<v Speaker 4>displaced people in you know, really devastating conditions. So there

0:12:15.679 --> 0:12:18.360
<v Speaker 4>were two hundred trucks that managed to get over the

0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:22.480
<v Speaker 4>border from Egypt on Sunday. There's been about two thousand

0:12:22.600 --> 0:12:25.120
<v Speaker 4>in total. But the hope is is that increases a

0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:26.840
<v Speaker 4>lot a lot more in the coming days.

0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:30.480
<v Speaker 1>What's the feeling about whether there is enough aid going

0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:35.320
<v Speaker 1>in right now and whether that aid could potentially be

0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:39.600
<v Speaker 1>used to support Hamas. There has to still be that

0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:43.439
<v Speaker 1>concern among the Israelis, right, Yeah.

0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:45.400
<v Speaker 4>Of course, And you know, this is part of the

0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:48.920
<v Speaker 4>reason why the bureaucracy around getting trucks in, the checks

0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:55.480
<v Speaker 4>and balances from the Israelis were so stern and and

0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:57.720
<v Speaker 4>it's also part of the reason why getting aid in

0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:00.560
<v Speaker 4>was actually difficult in the beginning. That it does seem

0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:04.080
<v Speaker 4>in recent days to have opened up. There is this

0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:06.920
<v Speaker 4>notion that, you know, if Israel is to continue its

0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:12.040
<v Speaker 4>ground offensive against Hamas, that in return, they cannot be

0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:15.440
<v Speaker 4>seen to be blocking eight you know, and flouting international

0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:21.600
<v Speaker 4>humanitarian law. But yes, I mean Hamas fighters are spread

0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:25.600
<v Speaker 4>throughout the Gaza Strip, and many people seem to think

0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:28.760
<v Speaker 4>that they have a presence in the south too, where

0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:30.199
<v Speaker 4>there are a lot of civilians.

0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:33.760
<v Speaker 1>And that factors into a lot of the commentary that

0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:38.520
<v Speaker 1>we're hearing from a particularly congressional Democrats in Washington, d C.

0:13:38.800 --> 0:13:41.680
<v Speaker 1>That future aid to Israel might need to be conditioned

0:13:42.120 --> 0:13:48.880
<v Speaker 1>on international humanitarian law being followed more stringently. How is

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:53.480
<v Speaker 1>that potentially factoring in to Israel's decision making when it

0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:57.520
<v Speaker 1>comes to extending the pause in fighting or carrying on

0:13:57.559 --> 0:14:01.960
<v Speaker 1>this war even further once whenever the pause ends, it

0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:02.680
<v Speaker 1>does end.

0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:04.920
<v Speaker 4>Well very much.

0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:05.040
<v Speaker 13>So.

0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:12.800
<v Speaker 4>Israel are extremely dependent on diplomatic and material support from

0:14:12.840 --> 0:14:17.520
<v Speaker 4>the United States. Without that, I think, you know that

0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:22.680
<v Speaker 4>the pressure for them to stop this war is going

0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:26.080
<v Speaker 4>to mount. So far, we've seen a lot of pressure

0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:31.760
<v Speaker 4>from Biden's administration to make sure Israel do allowed aid in,

0:14:31.960 --> 0:14:35.080
<v Speaker 4>but there hasn't been you know, a stringent call for

0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:39.120
<v Speaker 4>any longer term ceasefire. So it does seem that this

0:14:39.280 --> 0:14:42.280
<v Speaker 4>green light essentially for Israel to go back in to

0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:44.960
<v Speaker 4>the Gaza Strip once this truce comes to an end,

0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:48.400
<v Speaker 4>is very much there, even though perhaps in some other

0:14:48.480 --> 0:14:52.360
<v Speaker 4>corners of the world, particularly the Gulf and parts of Europe,

0:14:52.480 --> 0:14:55.880
<v Speaker 4>obviously the pressure is mounting. But yeah, as we all know,

0:14:56.360 --> 0:14:59.560
<v Speaker 4>the main bidder here is the United States.

0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:03.480
<v Speaker 1>And as this pause continues, Simon, are there risks of

0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:06.560
<v Speaker 1>other fronts opening while the pause goes on. I mean

0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:09.520
<v Speaker 1>there's been sporadic fighting that we've been reporting on in

0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:12.080
<v Speaker 1>the West Bank, as well as the back and forth

0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:13.880
<v Speaker 1>over the Israeli Lebanon border.

0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:18.920
<v Speaker 4>Yes, definitely. As you mentioned the West Bank, I mean

0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:22.400
<v Speaker 4>just overnight there has been a report there were eight

0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:25.000
<v Speaker 4>Palestinians killed in the West Bank in an air strike.

0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:30.840
<v Speaker 4>The situation is very restive there that there is growing

0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:36.200
<v Speaker 4>settler violence. Since October seven, Jewish settlers in the area

0:15:36.280 --> 0:15:40.280
<v Speaker 4>have carried out way over two hundred attacks on Palestinian communities,

0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:43.600
<v Speaker 4>and the Israeli army have also come down pretty tough

0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:50.600
<v Speaker 4>on demonstrators and suspected sympathizers of Hamas. The population there

0:15:50.720 --> 0:15:55.400
<v Speaker 4>in general feels like it's being occupied and oppressed, and

0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:58.680
<v Speaker 4>that the Palestinian authority which runs the show there in

0:15:58.720 --> 0:16:02.800
<v Speaker 4>some areas, isn't really representative of them. Obviously, if things

0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:07.160
<v Speaker 4>continue in this direction, there's massive risks of it boiling over,

0:16:07.720 --> 0:16:11.920
<v Speaker 4>and then, you know, I think beyond that, beyond Israel's borders.

0:16:13.600 --> 0:16:16.880
<v Speaker 4>So far it has been more or less contained, but

0:16:17.120 --> 0:16:20.280
<v Speaker 4>it is very, very worrying. We saw Israel strike the

0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:26.880
<v Speaker 4>airport in Damascus not that long ago, targeting, yeah, targeting

0:16:27.160 --> 0:16:31.040
<v Speaker 4>Iranian targets there. So clearly it's a it's a huge risk.
