President biden is heading to the Carolinas Today and to survey areas, gutted by Hurricane Helene im dana bash. Lets go behind the headlines and inside politics the least. Israel is promising payback after yesterday at this hour, we all watched iran fired nearly 200 Ballistic Missiles into israel the crucial Question Today is how will israel respond but nearly one year since hamas is barbaric October 7 massacre of civilians inside israel, hostages still captive and award thats killed thousands of palestinians living under hamas rule. It seems that the Wider Regional War thats so many feared could be upon us. Cnns Nic Robertson is live in tel aviv. Nic if we needed any more evidence of that, we are seeing still fighting on israels Western Front in gaza, southwest. We see it in the northern front in Lebanon Hamas and hezbollah. And of course, The Big Question is whether the country that has these two groups as its proxies is going to be even more aggressive in what israel is going to do in retaliation it really does seem to hang on how israel response the scale, scope, and what it chooses to hit. What we know from officials, from the overnight strikes iran strikes Last Night. Is that all the military Air Bases that were targeted, a fully functional does include the base that would be at the heart of operations for any long Range Fighter Aircraft strike into or on the borders of iran. We dont know what the governments planning we do know that it could include Oil Facilities that vital for iraq economy. It could include nuclear targets irans nuclear Weapons Program that it denies having is relatively close to a Breakout Or Breakout to available weapon the space of a year and It May be that israel determines this is the right time to do that. But perhaps more pressing issues for the Prime Minister today. He was doing what all Prime Ministers do during conflict, which is Offer Consoling and words and condolences for troops fallen in battle. And this day, weve learned from, from the idf that eight of their soldiers, and thats a very significant number were killed in the second day of Military Ground operations into lebanon, of course, have been so much talk about the comparisons with the idf crossing into lebanon in 2006, the same with 1982, where israel didnt pull out until 2000, the cost to troops its back then this not what anyone in the country and the Prime Minister whos making is at the core of making the decisions about what to do next, will not have wanted to see No One is calling it a setback, but it is clearly does expose the dangers of troops crossing into hezbollahs Home Territory and facing there and hezbollah did say they went into the combat with israeli forces along that border in three different locations. Last night, we dont have details of the attack, but we do know that it involved some of the sort of more well senior officers or more experienced fighting forces. But as you say, The Big Question right now Israels Response to iran and what happens after that . Nick thank you so much for that important report. Appreciate it. At the white house, a senior us official says that they dont believe israel has decided what a retaliatory strike will look like President Biden said yesterday that quote, it is an active discussion im joined now by the former speaker of the house, congresswoman Nancy Pelosi of california. Thank you so much for being here. You just heard Nic Robertson lay out the options being discussed inside israel about how to retaliate yesterday, you said that the u. S. Is unwavering and our commitment to the Protection And Defense of the israeli people. Former israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett was on with Wolf Blitzer here On Cnn. He said, now is the moment to destroy irans nuclear program. If israel does, that, should the u. S. Support the move . Well, as you know, good morning good morning. And california as you said before, neck was on, we want to avoid a bigger war as you know, full well, that President Obama had a plan to reduce the capacity of the iranians to produce a nuclear weapon. The next president in line, he came in and eliminate it that unfortunately, because now iran is on a path again for Enriching Uranium or fully taking it closer to having the capacity for weapon. I dont know how close they are to that. And if i did, i wouldnt say so. Again. Again, we dont we want to avoid a bigger war. We do know that hezbollah and hamas our proxies for iran. They are the troublemakers in the region the fact that israel was attacked 200 Ballistic Missiles coming into israel, Tank God without any major effect shows that they, they must be stopped. But i dont think we should get and then an open discussion now as to how we deal with their nuclear, we had a plan to do that. I think that there are other countries as as we had before, who had worked together to do that again. But the reason that there in the strong position they are today nuclear wise is because of the right failed policy of Donald Trump. And we are where we are right now with regard to whatever it is that iran has with regard to nuclear capability. So let me just press you on that. It sounds like youre saying that israel should be cautious about going after irans nuclear program or not. I mean, tell me exactly what you, what you believe. And then even extend that to the question of its Oil Fields well, its up to israel to decide about their security. But the fact, the fact is we are as you said earlier, and i repeat it again, we are trying to avoid a wider war without action would that cause a wider war or a wider war . It may, again, there has to be weighing of opportunities are weighing of possibilities. In the region. Im not im not going to come on this show and say israel should attack the nuclear facilities in iran. Ive never really been for that. I was for a diplomatic solution which President Obama successfully put forth to reduce the nuclear capability and possibilities of iran. And i think as much as we can do diplomatically, week, we should avoid a wider War Pecker you are not shy about your criticism of israeli Prime Minister netanyahu. Do you trust his judgment to carry out any retaliatory attack or just about where we are right now well, i never really support what israel, israel opposed President Obamas nuclear agreement that was china russia, eu countries around The World supporting that diplomatic initiative, israel opposed it. I think thats one of the Reasons Trump probably opposed to to i dont know. Youd have to ask him, but whatever his policy as its taken iran too a stronger nuclear position at okay so the netanyahu, im a mom, im a grandmother. Free the hostages. Lets add be the priority. Its almost one year why couldnt he use his whatever it is . His the leverage his might, whatever it was to free the hostages. Israel was attacked on October 7 unmercifully, it was a horrible thing. But those hostages need to be freed im thinking of hersh that young man who we thought i saw as parents recently, we thought in any day he would be free and they killed he died. So again, every day is more dangerous for them. Free the hostages. So if you asked me if i respect his discretion, his judgment to the rest, i think he should have had the hostages free first and foremost before talking about the Philadelphia Carter and this that and the other thing i want to turn our discussion back to the united states and to the president ial election. And i want to ask you about a moment in last Nights Vice President ial debate. And listen to what Jd Vance said specifically about the issue of reproductive rights when he was asked about it i grew up in a working Class Family in a neighborhood where i knew a lot of young women who had an unplanned pregnancies and decided to terminate those pregnancies because they feel like they didnt have any other options and i one of them is actually very dear to me and i know shes watching tonight. And i love you. And she told me something a couple of years ago that she felt like if she hadnt had that abortion, that would have destroyed her life because she was in an abusive relationship. Weve got to do so much better of a job at earning the american peoples trust back on this issue, where they frankly just dont trust us an undecided female voters in cnns post debate focus group, as said Last Night, that answer made her more encouraged about the Gop Ticket because she said he sounded more progressive then she expected. What would you say to her well, let me first just say since returning to domestic that our thoughts and prayers to the people of North Carolina and south for the assault that they were under from the from the weather its so sad that people lost their lives, their homes so much there place of business and the rest. So personally condolences who lost Family Members in terms of Last Night, that can you say . They you saw the difference between Truth And Trust in terms of Walz And Khan and slick in terms of this administration is for an Abortion Ban a national Abortion Ban when they say leave it up to the states the states its have their own Abortion Bans. We need to protect them by having roe v. Wade be the national policy of our country. I dont know what Hope She Saw in that. Right. Womans right to choose is to choose to have the child or not have the child or to engage in contraception which republic . But kens 194 of them voted, women do not have the right to contraception. So understand this women of im a mother of 55 children, six years and seven days. I have two birthdays this week of my children and it is wonderful for me but not up to me to decide what other people should do, nor is it up to Vance Or Trump so understand this in their 2025 project they not only want to have several ban on abortion, they want to close the Department Of Education to educate those children. The list goes On And on. I think that that was clever to use that personal connection. But it isnt real in terms of women having the right to make their own decisions and not politicians making in their decisions for them this is a very serious matter i mean, first, let me just put it in perspective. First of all, they werent telling the truth about it. A they werent telling the truth about january 6. How about him saying president was encouraging peaceful demonstrations at the capitol how about him saying the president . It was for a peaceful transfer of power on january 20. How about him saying that President Obama saved the affordable Care Act . Give me a break. This is over 60 times the republicans tried to take it down. Theyve failed because of of just the american people, but also John Mccain so what we saw there was misrepresentation after misrepresented mishap, but khan and slick, as opposed to walz, who was trustworthy and truthful, that what he had to say his sincerity, his authentic until city i think won the night. But in terms of a womans right to choose, you cannot you cannot. Eight republicans voted for a woman to have the right to contraception ate all right, and the congress 894 no so again unfortunately that khan may have worked on that young woman, but i hope that she never has to be subjected to the policies that they will subject her to. This is about truth, Madam Verticals khan i congratulate Tim Walz, madam speaker. Thank you so much for being here. I wanted to congratulate you on being recognized during the 30th Anniversary of the presidio national park site. I know youve been one of the biggest advocates for the presidio is national Park Status it now has pelosi plaza. So congrats there were showing you it was done in a bipartisan way in a bipartisan way. Thats what im so proud of. Thank you. Thank you for being here.

Unlike the debate between their bosses last month, one of the more noteworthy moments came at the very end when Jd Vance was asked about january 6, Threats Democracy and whether Donald Trump did in fact lose the election. Now, there is an ad from the Harriswalz Campaign put out this morning highlighting that exchange is really rich four democratic leaders to say that Donald Trump is a unique threat to democracy when he peaceful how are you still saying he didnt lose the election . I would just ask, that. Did he lose the 2020 election to im focused on the future.
