Across the country are now on strike this busy Labor Day Weekend. Districts involve mostly hyatt, marriott, Hilton Hotels and they will last about three days. The workers unions say they want higher pay, increased staffing, and reduced workloads. In moments, a day of Heartbreak And Protest in israel after six dead hostages are recovered in gaza. Good day to love you. From Msnbc World headquarters in New York, thank you and welcome to Alex Witt reports. We begin with Breaking News. Protests across israel spilling into The Streets in outrage over the six hostages killed by hamas in gaza. Many israelis putting the blame for their deaths squarely on prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who they accuse of failing to strike a Ceasefire Deal. We have a number of reporters in place covering the latest development for us. First, we go to Matt Bradley in Tel Aviv for us. Matt, it has been loud behind you, there are thousands upon thousands in that square in Tel Aviv. Where are the protesters now, out in The Street some of them . Reporter they are still here. It is breaking up as you can see. This is the first time we have been able to get any kind of Cell Phone Signal because there were so many people. I spoke with one of the organizers and she told me they think there was half 1 Million people crowding The Streets. Just like you said a moment ago, they are talking about how they want to see some kind of Ceasefire Deal but they are blaming Benjamin Netanyahu, the Pain Minister, squarely for the failures of the past several months, ever since the last deal in november, for half of the remaining hostages that you can see, these are the six here. This is what has brought so many people out into The Street, the murder of these six just a day or two ago in the tunnels underneath rafah. I spoke with one american israeli woman whose husband is still being held captive in the Gaza Strip. Here is what she told me about the Pain Minister. I want to believe that hes holding on and that they are going to keep them alive and that they wont kill him. I want to keep hope. If i dont, i wont be able to survive. I have to keep hope. I know what it is like in their. It is the worst thing that could ever happen to any human being. Reporter she was referring to her husband, who is still in captivity but she also had words and so many other people that i spoke to about Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, about the fact he seems to be putting instructions in The Way of reaching some sort of deal. It was just last week that the military did Rescue One Hostage A life but that is very, very rare and a lot of the folks here say the murder of these six people, these six young people vindicates what they have been fighting all along, that they need to come up with some sort of deal, that the line from The Beginning that only Military Force will fell hamas and Military Force will free the hostages, they are saying that is completely proven wrong and is bankrupt and there needs to be a deal now and not only are they saying they want to see a deal, they want to see their Pain Minister resigned. That is one of the things that came through loud and clear in the hours we have been walking around in this huge crowd that, like i said, alex, is just now breaking up. Who is there in the israeli cabinet that is representing the views you are describing from the israeli people right now that are opposing Benjamin Netanyahus actions, is there any traction there . Reporter the major one is actually Benjamin Netanyahus traditional phone, Yoav Gallant, the Minister Of Defense. There was a Cabinet Meeting just on Thursday Night and this made a big headlines in the press were there was a Shouting Match between the Minister Of Defense and the Pain Minister in which they were saying all of the people opposed to the prime minister in the cabinet, that Benjamin Netanyahu was selling out the captives in order to fulfill his Military Mission in the Gaza Strip for the complete destruction of hamas, or, more cynically, to keep himself in political power. That is one thing we have been hearing time and time again, from folks on The Street here. This is a Selfserving Mission on behalf of the Pain Minister, he is sacrificing the lives of the hostages, specifically these six behind me, for his own political gain. Once he is out of power, he will be faced with some very serious legal accusations of corruption that have been in the books and executed by the judiciary here in israel, which he tried to kneecap with a set of legislation last year, that he is trying to avoid that fate. Hes trying to avoid basically going to prison and that hes doing that on the backs of the corpses of the Israeli Hostages in the Gaza Strip. Matt, we have spent many a saturday together while you have covered the protests that have been every week during this ongoing tragedy since last october. This one feels different. It feels more boisterous, more anger, certainly larger than most. Is that how you see it as well . Reporter absolutely. It is the size. It was incredible to be here. You saw me an hour or two ago, we were up on this bridge over here and you could really see how the crowd stretched all The Way beyond view, beyond the camera. Then, in the other direction, way beyond where he could see. It looked as though it went on for miles and miles and miles. As you mentioned, we have been seeing these protests in this location for the last several months every single week. Today, what brought them outweighs the murder of the six young people killed in the Gaza Strip by hamas. That is what has energized this population and that is when the organizers say this isnt ending tonight. There will be a massive strike starting tomorrow. They have negotiated with Trade Union leaders who are participating in this strike. There are municipalities throughout israel calling for more workers to go home. Even in Tel Aviv, you will see the workers here not coming to work, supposedly. Even at the international airport, the gateway to israel will be shut down starting at 8 00 a. M. Tomorrow. That is why people here say this isnt ending tonight and they are trying to lock in the boisterous this you are describing here, bottling it up and keeping it for as long as possible until they pressure the government to get to that deal. Matt, last question. There is this, it is an intangible in some ways but a visceral rejection that has been the reaction as a result of these six young people. Having survived in horrible conditions since they were kidnapped October 7th only to be shot dead by hamas militants within an hour, two hours, we dont know the specifics, but close to when the idf was there to rescue them. What prompted that, we dont know. Whether they were ticked off they were coming or was aware of some sort of Rescue Attempt who knows. That is what seems to be a struggle for people to accept this. The tragedy of these young people being killed when they made it so far. Is that a fair assessment . Reporter it is a fair assessment but what you are describing is absolutely right. Think about what you just said. Benjamin netanyahu from The Beginning, from october has been saying only Military Force will free the hostages. Well, the dynamics of the description we got from the idf was that it was the military who was bearing down on the hostages, they were about to reach them and it sounded as them they were killed execution style. I dont know the details. They havent been revealed but they were shot, it sounds like, moments before the idf actually reached them, which vindicates this line from the protesters who have been coming out again and again here in central Tel Aviv saying it is not Military Force that will free the rest of the sausages. There has to be a deal. This example with these six shows Military Force might have contributed or accelerated their deaths. That is one major source of outrage on The Streets of Tel Aviv. Unspeakable. Matt bradley, thank you so much, from Tel Aviv. We will keep flowing all this as we go to Gabe Gutierrez and the White House for us. Gabe, we know both President Biden and president harris have spoken with the parents of the american Israeli Hostages who was killed. What can you tell us about the conversations . Reporter this has been a very emotional time. This administration has met with Hersh Goldbergpolins parents for almost a year now. They even delivered remarks at the democratic national convention. Both President Biden and Vice President harris just sent they have spoken to them today. The president in his room sitting he is devastated and outraged. In his written statement of the night, he said the news is as tragic as it is reprehensible. Make no mistake, hamas leaders will pay for these crimes and we will keep working around the clock for a deal to secure the release of the remaining hostages. In a separate statement overnight, Vice President harris wrote may hersh Goldbergpolins Memory be a blessing. Adding hamas is an evil terrorist organization. With these murders, hamas has even more american blood on its hands. I strongly condemn hamass continued brutality and so must the entire world. National Security Advisor Jake sullivan is said to hold a virtual meeting with families of the american hostages that remain in gaza. As for the call between the Vice President and Hersh Goldbergpolins parents, she just worked on Social Media that she told them the nation is morning with them. Alex. Gabe gutierrez at the White House, thank you for that. Joining me now, independent journalist who covers the middle east. Welcome, im understand you live in israel. Talk about what it has been like since the news broke about the six hostages. Reporter well, it has been a very difficult and anguished reality here, in particular the details you just mentioned. Over the course of the day, following the 6 00 a. M. It announcement that they had been located dead, details emerged related to the forensic examinations. By The End of the day, and these protests that you are broadcasting, every israeli knows that they were, as your correspondent said, they were taken out, they were shot multiple times in the head at pointblank range and that it was just before the soldiers got there. So, there is this terrible feeling in israel of something almost perverted, a missed opportunity. A kind of double tragedy. I dont think any israelis have any doubts about hamass intentions but the feeling in israel very clearly is that their government screwed this up. I know you have attended some of those protests, which have broken out across the country in reacting to the news. Tell me what you have seen and how it compares to previous protests over the last 11 months. Reporter it is much more intense and it is much larger. The organizers tonight claim that more than half 1 Million israelis have been protesting all over the country. What we are seeing here are the protests in Tel Aviv. There was a massive protest in jerusalem i was at earlier today and there are protests from the north to the south. But, theres also very intentional effort on the part of the families of the remaining hostages and hundreds of thousands of sympathizers to show the government that they mean business. Since this war started and israelis have been shellshocked for much of this year, since the hamas invasion, the Protest Movement Hasnt really been able to get its footing. They are hoping that Todays Tragedy will really focus on demands to sign a deal, any deal to release the hostages. I know that you also spoke with a member of Labor Party while out at the protests. I want to play for our series a little bit of that. Here it is, everyone. The tragic events of the last 24 hours will remind people why we need to, this government will and it stays shortly. Does that match the majority of sentiments you are hearing there . Reporter not really. That is what i sent him so interesting. What we are seeing today in israel is the cleavage of israeli society. In other words, you have something like 80 of israelis represented by these massive, massive protests. Theres quite a bit of police section. You also see them at the same time, Benjamin Netanyahu is radical extremist government stiffening its back, doubling down on the very policies, the very decisions that israelis feel led to the inevitable death, the executions of these hostages. All day long we have heard benjamin netanyau, his ministers and he himself in a statement saying we are doubling down, we are going to send more soldiers in to rafah, we are going to take possession, basically, have a Military Presence at the border between gaza and egypt, the Yoav Gallant three. You are seeing everything detach between the government and society. That is why it was so interesting for me to hear this Labor Party legislator, who is very prominent in the opposition against Benjamin Netanyahu saying that he does perceive cracks that could lead to this government being toppled. Is Benjamin Netanyahu acknowledging the massive protests across the country . When you are talking half A Million people that are protesting in The Way we are showing our viewers there in Tel Aviv, could this moment, could propel him to make a Ceasefire Deal . Is there hope for that . I dont really know how to answer you. Maybe it would depend in part on how Tonight And Tomorrow unfold. But, the fact of the matter is that, thus far, as massive and dispassionate as the protests are, Benjamin Netanyahu and his government appear to be doubling down on this decision, which seems to prevent a Cease Fire Deal from coming in place. The americans havent yet spoken up except for to express mourning for the loss of an american citizen. Let me ask you one last question. This is going to sound somewhat cynical, perhaps, it is about Benjamin Netanyahu. Ive asked it of other guests. By keeping the war going, does it help him stay in power . What happens to him once the war is over . Reporter that is not a cynical question, that is a realistic question. Absolutely without question. As long as this war lasts and is escalated, Benjamin Netanyahu can stay in power because his most Extremist Ministers will stick by him. The minute that something compels him, if it ever does, to sign a ceasefire agreement, his government, i think is likely to fall apart and he would lose power and that is what he wants to avoid. Theres no question there. Noga tarnopolsky, im very glad to speak with you and get you a very honest and candid perception of everything going on. Thank you for reporting with us and i hope we will be able to bring you back again soon. Thank you. We will keep a close eye on all of this. In fact, we will ask our next guest about this in just a few minutes. Lets go to dissident 2024. With 65 days to go until election day. New today, governor Tim Walz was on the Campaign Trail attending the Minnesota State fair earlier. A new Abc News Ipsos Poll shows Kamala Harris with a slight lead over former President Donald Trump, but then the margin of error among registered voters and a larger lead among likely voters. A new Harris Campaign Memo warns democrats they are entering the final stretch of the race for the White House as underdogs, while surrogates for Vp Harris say enthusiasm following the dnc and her first sit down to view appears to be holding. Unbridled enthusiasm and the numbers back that up. During the week of the convention, it was 82 Million raised. A third of those donations came from firsttime donors. Two thirds came from women. Teachers and nurses were the most common occupations of the donors. This is a grassroots momentum. Today on the Sunday Talk shows, surrogates for republicans and democrats analyzing the first interview. I thought she came up with confidence, calmness and not defensiveness and i hope she will do more of these interviews. Id go with your predecessor, chuck todd, she should go on these weekly shows. Shes very competent. Running for president , have her views out there and take the hard questions. Donald trump, meanwhile, says hes looking ahead to the September Tent debate. More on that in just a moment. Tomorrow, Vp Harris will attend a Labor Day Celebration in detroit and President Biden will join her for a Campaign Event in pittsburgh, pennsylvania. Tuesday, the Harriswalz Campaign is launching a reproductive Freedom Bus Tour in Battleground States that will kick off in palm beach, florida. Nbc news 2024 campaign embedded reportertrailer is joining me now. Jake, we have seen where Vice President harris is headed but where is Donald Trump this week . Reporter former President Trumps preparation for this upcoming debate is not conventional. The Vision Thing we have seen from candidates over decades, where there are podiums in the room, theres a Mock Version of a Debate Or Someone is playing the role of Vice President harris to give trump a feel of what it might be like, that is not happening behind closed doors. What is happening, instead, is trump is that Will Making Calls to friends and to analyze to bring up what he might discuss in the debate, talk policy, talk different Attack Lines against Vice President harris. In terms of what hes promoting externally, at least, former President Trump is quite bullish going into this debate, talking about Vice President harris. He said Last Night in an interview that he would expose her during the debate. Take a listen to that. The press is the biggest the fake news is the biggest problem of all. They immediately went from her being a joke, not qualified, she will be terrible and she is the worst Vice President in history to All Of A Sudden she is wonderful. Shes not wonderful. We have a debate coming up. I look forward to that. She wil
