Health care facilities, educational facilities, International Organization facilities such as on or why theyve been directly targeted in the northern part and garza city and more recently, and tanya and his were at least 4 warehouses, manage and operated by honor, what being either completely damaged or severe, completely destroyed or severely damaged. This pattern of attacks is an indication that this really military is conducting this war merely on civilian population because the evidence on the ground suggests and just goes very consistently with the narrative. Uh, since the beginning of dor when these really military and its uh, political leaders and military leaders a now that do are going to send god off to the stone age. And just more recently the past the 3 days have been very, very bloody and very difficult mentally concentrated in the central area. Were seeing more of the uh, residential buildings are being destroyed, including lost in the schools and public facilities, and further civilian casualties that been the by product of, of this, of this ongoing war on the central area and pushing more people into further displacement. Something that has been feeding into the permanent sense of, of shatter safety and further, a permanent displacement for already a traumatized that and, and large the display of population an overcrowded rough estimate the as well. Thats it from the baron jordan. You kind of course find much more information on our website. Ill just come there. It is on your screen. Our coverage of iran retaliated and spike on israel continues here on. Ill just see it right off the stream spectrum. Thanks for watching the on the counting, the cost will Oil Prices Keep rising and how will that affect the global flight against inflation . Symbolic way its launched a new parents in a bit to end this financial time. Well, ive had 5 boy thought mcdonalds is now buying back o, it says really restaurant counting the cost on out to 0. In recent months, pressure has been growing on the bite and ministration from the outside, but also increasingly from within us. The resignations keep coming for defense in dc bt to an end to the bloodshed in garza. Im mary impossible. And this is the street the, the director u. S. Department of state has resigned to all the Senior State Department official that oversaw our sales just resigned because of whats happening and policy. And other Us Government official has officially resigned in protest to the by the end administration rushing to provide arms to israel, which was short sighted, destructive, unjust, and contradictory to the very values that we publicly espoused. It was untenable to work for and represent and administration. The president that put conditions on my own humanity publicly withdrawing consent as an employee of the government saying, i dont want to participate in this anymore is actually quite power. Many people inside state know that this is a horrific policy and cant believe that the United States government is engaged in such actions, but contravene American Values so directly. But the leadership is not listening. Think we need more courage like this from government officials to josh pull tight bosh and now should lean. These are just some of the names of hyper fall figures who have publicly steps down. Risks within washington are increasingly apparent. So what is really happening in the holes of us power here for further discussion on this. Now, so mean a full my us state Department Official who publicly resigned americas goals or response. She joins us live from durham, North Carolina reg stoker, a full my us army ranger. Im active is to joins is from austin, texas. Im from cairo, just me, a young man who served as a middle east adviser. Im special assistance to pentagon leadership. Welcome to you. Oh, thank you for being here. Now. Can i start with you, you one of a number of high profile resignations in recent months . Do you have a sense that the messages may be getting through to President Biden . And i think that the message that is getting through is probably mostly coming from political pressure building on the administration. This is an Election Year and i think in many ways that is of greater concern. Obviously the rise, you know, my own resignation and those of others is, is a high profile event. But i do think from the administrations perspective, theyre probably mostly concerned about things like that uncommitted mode and other efforts to try to show President Biden, that this is going to be an electoral issue for him. And if he doesnt change policy, he risks losing the election over the guard guides a policy. And greg, you are a us veteran veterans. Uh, i think the discipline and veterans have paid a really Important Role in the vietnam rule in near rockville. Do you see yourself as part of this mini age of discipline, veterans and why are they important . Yeah its, its important, but uh, its harder for them to dismiss us uh, in terms of the deter, uh, typical narrative of being terrorist sympathizers. When you know you have a bunch of guys, you actually engaged what we would, what the United States would consider terrace forces. Um, so it just, you brought up vietnam. Theres a lot of different uh, activism movements that, uh, service confluence for the vietnam backlash. But again, that did last 10 years of constant activism in direct action. Just mean use of this 3 set countries, evidence of defense advising on at least a says, this is hardly americas fast unpopular Foreign Policy decision. How significant all the levels of defense we are seeing as well. I think certainly more than anything i had ever seen in my time in government, i was in government for 8 years under the obama administration, serving at the department of defense. If youll remember the time we had the war against isis, we have the syria war. We had the arab spring, there was obviously a lot of criticism over us policy at the time when it came to these issues. And for many of us were serving inside government at the time. A lot of us felt that we had a role to play inside the administration to represent different points of view. So to advocate for policies that we felt were best for long term us interests. But the level of defense, the level of resignations, the level of protests, obviously nothing like were seeing, were seeing today. And i, you know, i think that ive talked about this a lot with former colleagues of mine who served back then when we talk about what were seeing now, people like a now and, and, and sort of, you know, these really brave stances that a lot of our former colleagues are taking what i loved about something and now said on another the, i think it was the democracy now interview and now that you did, i loved the fact that even though you were describing why you felt like you had to leave, you also made it a point to say that there are other people who cant leave, for example, because of their families or they have to provide or their career prospects. Things that they have to think about that really a dom up inside. And so they felt that they would, you know, because they have to stay inside that they would do their part and to do what they can. And so i think thats really important to remember to marry them is that the defend comes in different forms. And we need people inside government making those arguments as much as we need people resigning and people outside Government Act to this analysts, journalist its all part of the spectrum, i think of society that puts different kinds of pressure on administrations to make one whole point. Well, on that point i spoke exclusively to fed united for peace and then on the list. This is in group of thousands of Us Government federal employees who came together off to october, the 7th. Listen to this brutality of the word selves is. So this way for so many of us, but you cant help but respond ways of responding to those as federal workers and employees and people who are patriots on the bus bar country. And as such, what we can see is that the, the israel is engaged, that we are supporting us. The United States is harmful, not only are forced to the college students, but also to the United States to our interest. We believe the senior officials are talking isnt that we are in violation of domestic laws as low as international laws. And yet this policy continues, because ultimately the buck stops with the president , disappeared the United States has been doing so it is real or has been at this incredibly high level for very long, and its been on the political. Its been on traditional. That has to change, this is the kind of thing that were now booking up as workers august federal government. And we say it is not possible to continue with the late status quote. So many people who are turned in to the news that is coming out of us all. And for these people on the ground, you know, videos, your voices, they are not being lost. There are people in the hedge of power, if you will be listening to you now was the sides points how unconditional support for israel has long being a bi partisan issue in america. Do you see this changing at all . I do see it changing. I think the question is just whether the change is going to happen quickly enough to save the lives of the palestinians trapped in signs of baba. Weve already seen the ways that this is no longer as bi partisan. I do think that the, the is really government has really thrown in its lot with republicans in a way that may be detrimental to their long term efforts to maintain this unconditional flow of, of massive amounts of money that the us gives to israel every year as well, as the weapons, i do think that were also seeing a shift now in the context as, as was mentioned from fed, united for peace, that these videos that are coming out as a, as a, im an employee at the state department. Your inbox is full of the, the statistics of the dead, of the casualties of how many trucks are getting in, as well as often links to some of these, um, social media videos. So it is something that the state department is engaging with every day. And as you asked me mentioned, you know, for many people, it is extremely devastating to have to go in every day and be faced with that. Whether or not theyre working directly on this policy or not. It is inescapable. And i think that is contributing to the, the internal descent that were seeing. But i, again, i, i do think that this, this is, and the generational issue are seeing young people in particular um, feeling very differently. And much of that does have to do with the ways that young people receive information through social media. Whereas unfortunately, much of the american Mainstream Media is not covering the devastation of what is happening inside the, in the same way that, that those of us that are getting information were directly from those people that we see what is really happening and whats happening on the ground yeah, i think a, again, i just hope that this public pressure that is building from inside the administration and outside the administration is going to finally force to shift. Yeah. But greg, i want to give you an opportunity to come back over see any thoughts on that video. But i also want to ask you about the fact that binding has described himself as a zionist. And youve made videos around some of the dangers of christian zine ism, i mean, how powerful is the influence of christian zine isnt within the holes of power, or is it something we should be concerned about . Well yeah, i mean, ive recently been talking about this because theres been a lot of the burgeoning awareness about a pack in the israel lobby and other special Interest Groups that support this really state. But you have to understand that over a 100000000 americans, not all of them are christian scientists, but a lot of them are evangelicals who seriously believe for their own religious purposes in the existence of the state of israel. And they whether and in a lot of politicians, a lot of christian, evangelical politicians in the senate, and congress, what support israel unconditionally, no matter what, whether or not a packing system know whether or not they were getting lobby by the Energy Sector or the military industrial complex, they would support israel, no matter what, does a huge Building Block in america . Well, no discussion of american democracy could be complete without a reference to the significant influence of one foreign governments lobby on us policy. I of course, talking about a pack check this out, a pack paid, and joe biden. 11000000. 00 to aid is row with ethnic cleansing the x rays. All ready selling Waterfront Properties in gauze . Forcing the palestinians out has always been the plan. Just mean, do you agree, hows the plan always being for the Us Government to get the palestinians out of gaza in the Us Government . No, i would say obviously these really government has successive is rarely, governments have made their opinions clear when it came to peace with the palestinians. I mean, Prime Minister netanyahu has been Prime Minister for years and years on and off, but other Prime Ministers as well, have been very intransigent when it comes to peace with the palestinians. Different president s have gone about it differently. And i think, as you said, miriam, President Biden is very uniquely when it comes to us. President s pro is real, he has said himself that hes designed as he has talked about how a meeting with gold in the air then Prime Minister of israel at a very early stage of his career shaped him profoundly. And were seeing the effects of that today. And that brings me to a point thats really important that both of my co panelists have touched upon. This is a generational issue. You know, these types of, of really policies that have been set in stone for decades. They take decades to unravel and to change, and just like joe biden was shaved by his meeting with gold in the air future leaders of the United States, whether its in the senate, the congress or the executive branch, are going to be shaped by whats happening today. And thats why its important to think about the long term everything that people are doing now to speak out and act against the war and gaza. An unconditional support to israel is influencing the future leadership of this country. And i think thats a positive thing, greg. I want to off to officially, the u. S. Government says it wants a 2 state solution and piece in the region. But in practice, it isnt supporting a Peace Process of any kind and is in fact, all being and funding is roll. Secular expands and ive always been taught to ignoble a maam, says and to look at his actions instead, is the well being gas slit by america right now. I mean, absolutely a lot of, of, by the, by the ministrations talking points are completely performative. Not only that, they knows that the israels not specifically targeting come off. They dont have any exit strategy. They dont have a need to finding a defined tactical or operational goals. And i know as someone with the background of military intelligence, i know that i dont even have access to the information. They havent had any standard approved of homeless presence in any hospitals. And they havent, you know, released any completely evidence that theyve taken out or killed or captured any of from us leadership. So theyre just dragging this thing out and theyre going to continue to supply israel with weapons until it becomes politically untenable. The thing is like we are, were talking about descent, were still involved in this issue for our own reasons, but the average american citizen and the average American Voter isnt even touched by this. Ive been talking to a lot of people the just like, oh, its the middle east. This is what happens in the middle east. They have a murky understanding of history, and i think this is been happening for thousands of years. And what are they going to do about it . So, i mean, the descent is significant is id say its unprecedented in the modern era. Um, you know, since vietnam, but its where it is still takes time to grow. People need to be motivated through self interest. Like why is the unconditional support . It is real bad for you. Right. What is that . What . Yeah, what it does seem like on the is boring among some us votes is over the economics priorities of the government. This guy has some choice words. He was absent. Insane to me is i got to go out of town and work for hours away from my home and away from my daughter just to make a paycheck just to make ends meet. I got a walk outside in the pouring down rain and then tomorrow to beat myself. And guys, meanwhile, and his release got subsidized housing and Free Education and free health care. And the good monthly allowance is all born paid for by the United States tax parents. Theyre getting tens of billions of dollars a year sent to him. Just a bomb, murder, and main, innocent men, women, and children, and in florida you manage hearing aid workers. Its going to say im now a majority of us voters now disapprove of israels actions, and yet on the same day as by then condemned the king of the wealth. Central kitchen aid workers by israel, he approve the transfer of thousands and thousands move bones. Why is a bite and seemingly ignoring the views of the majority of americans . I dont have a great answer for that. It is really confusing. I do think yes means answer about how. Because it took decades for us to get way to where we are. It is going to take, i hope, not decades, but it is going to take a while. And as you mentioned, you know, this is something that has been part of President Bidens ideology for most of his very long career. I do hope that those around him including apparently hi
