ends in gaza, get another urgent call to israel in months on the ground. nothing seems to change often months of warnings. the one now says the famine is spread in guys, at least 30 people. most of them children have died due to malnutrition and dehydration local health ministry claims with you and human rise alerting the true death toll from starvation is probably higher. and all that is man made as israel prevents age from entering the in clay at most optimistic estimate. israel has only allowed and took as a less than such a 2 percent of the pre war level of goods, but un says to meet mess of demand at least $500.00 trucks should make their way into guys every day. a total of $87000.00 vehicles must have been sent to the in quake in 5 months of the war. in reality, less than $160.00 trucks now and to the street daily. and since the conflict started, just 16000 trucks were sent there. what else are important before the war?

a g, as a, had its own food production and agriculture. now with infrastructure destroyed, no domestic production at all. so the aid must have been increased, but we see the opposite. israel that controls land roads blocks the 8 and the rest of the force alternative ways like a drops for example, but it is and sufficient to provide relief for a 1000000 of people at also the interest. at least 5 people were killed from 8 packages falling on them and guys are seeing deliveries is another option, but it takes days for a shape to reach this trip. while the amount of supply that carries equal is just one quarter of 10 minutes are in trucks. that are much faster of course, so there was no point in actually see delivery there is also this forest that the. c us committed to build and gas, i'm to get 8 by c, but it will take up to 60 days to finish the works. guidelines can not wait that long and they need to eat and drink now. so land roads are the most efficient

experts say, and they are blocked by as well as mold. in 1100000 people in goals are facing stream levels of food and security. there is no alternative to the large scale delivery of a buy land. but despite these agents and overwhelming needs, hostilities and access impediments continue to hamper our efforts to get life saving assistance to civilians and goals are at the scale needed to save loyce to more and more west in the states. i say that israel is using hunger, has a weapon. israel must stop solving civilians and children and let sufficient humanitarian age into gaza. honda is a weapon of war equals a flagrant violation of international low hum to must never be used as a weapon. and that is why among other things we are committed to ensuring that more humanitarian that comes to the goal is to strip. israel denies old allegations saying a does not for us trade can, is really government spokesperson clashed with the u. k. 4 and the secretary over

the issue. he later has been suspended reports of name due to his replies. and after deleting all his post people in goals, they were in desperate humanitarian need. we continue to g israel to allow mo truck since the goal is there is the fastest way to get to you to those who need it. i hope you are aware there are no limits on the entry of food, water medicine or shelter equipment into gaza. and in fact, the crossings have excess capacity test us. send another 100 trucks a day to kareem shalom, and we'll get them in. well, israel does what it ones page humanitarian aid or plans to invade, densely populated rough, fine guys, us house. and one of the reasons experts say is america fully supported scheme of the list ally. and there were some to move when the un special that have outdoor on they occupied palestinian territory is submitted a report on israel's alleged acts of genocide and gaza. the us state department

dismissed the allegations as unfounded. also were simply the us claimed that the un security council resolution calling for an immediate cease fire is not binding. as a result, we see no truce on the ground and plus an increase in his really attacks. so israel covered and supported by washington seems to fill ok. ignoring global calls and concerns. and fear is an actual indications are that the situation on the ground in the street, including people starving to death, will only keep the tea rating. unfortunately, a little time for a visit to the cross talks to do is next join the peter of his panel as they delve into the gal is a crisis with israel's assault on this been having passed the 6 month mark. it all gets going in moment. take over the

hello and welcome to cross ok. we're all things are considered. i'm peter labelle, secretary defense lloyd, austin declared, well hosting his is really counterparts. the us israel military relationship is unshakable. as israel continues at slaughter of palestinians and gods, the historical record notes, the american administration is a name co conspirators projects on the cross hunting college sign. i'm joined by my guess, lionel in new york is illegal in media analyst in ottawa. we have already em says he is a professor of international law at queens university as well as author of the united nations and the question of how assigned an amount we have now. so i'll be nice

r t is a brooks and bouts that are to jordan and the middle east are gentlemen cross up rules and the fact that means you can jump any time you want. and i always appreciated professor, if i can go to you 1st in ottawa, this is your, um, uh, your area of expertise. so the law and how the international community is dealt with the palestine question. i think international law has been made into complete mockery. it doesn't stand for anything any more, if there are exceptions. and why do we have laws the in the american approach to this quote and quote on a non binding resolution? which correct me if i'm wrong, sir, but i mean, when the united nations security council has a resolution in both side and it becomes international law, how can the americans make that exception? what at the same time, not voiding the entire process. go ahead, professor. thank you very much for having me. um, well, how to put this delicately the us position is complete. nonsense. so your question suggested on the article 25 of the united nations charter members of the united

nations degraded accepting carry out the decisions of the council. and as has been confirmed by the international court of justice specifically, and its 1971, an advisory opinion on that may be a substitution to me. don't take the place with in chapter 7 of the charter, which some commentators are, are the shooting and the cover all decisions of the council. so resolution to $7.00 to $8.00, which calls for a cease fire in guys is one such decision. and it therefore binds all parties to the concept, but in particular, israel because it is a member state of united nations. well, now, sorry, and i'm on if, if i'm drawing on what we've just heard from the professor in ottawa, even though the united states abstained, it's incumbent upon the united states to take action. if israel does not take action, stop it's laundering, gaza, the usaa is obligated by this resolution, even though they abstain, permit fees to intervene if they, if necessary,

by all means necessary. nicer. thank you. first of all, how me zoomed what to say is 1st that they, you asked what part of this huge mess around sculptors and gather? now the main thing is that this resolution from the security council is okay for the firewall, but the us will have to accommodate and disobey, and not just starting from the top of the 7 bucks for the last 100 years since the beginning of this year. genocide, actually the whole list of course was actually covering israel because it gives the radio is a cooling, you know, that, and then the project is going to be the least. they blocked at this project. you know, they are covered and you can be on even you not just with the political d began in the international community, but also by using thing with weapons by helping them with that the high take that can lead for more and more of that. please thing in the the actual the t

because the genocide pair, but if we can clean single body style is part of the western culture. it's part of the quality of western culture that's actually created israel to set up the goals. well, you know, line on line likes to refer to himself as the guy for in the fishbowl on this program. and i appreciate it very much. but the line only if, if you look at the, what happened in the united nations and this is not the 1st time there was an attempt at a resolution calling for a ceasefire. the united states and israel is all alone. is there any awareness here in new york? is there any awareness of that or, or it's going if there is an awareness to people, care or? uh no. uh, to answer your question. uh, going back historically. you remember uh, a gentleman around the turn of the 20th century, they had these bare knuckle boxers who would do this a lot, and they would jack johnson. and they would do this. they never would land

a punch in anybody, but it looks great. that's the you with a, i'm a lawyer by profession and i'm not an international lawyer. and one time i was asking, why is this not in force? i want to read the fine print. it says this is merely aspirational. i'm thinking, well, what's the point of this? so what we're doing is we're having gobbledygook. and not only that, we're having this cool, bulky dance, this theater, this synchronized scrum, where people stand with arms that kimball is. that's why you. yeah, but like the resolution wasn't aspirational, i mean english is my 1st language. i understood it was pretty clear. okay. it's not about the record. it is a demand. but there's no one for all know but, but that was mike. that was my question to our guest in my mind is, i know it's past the united states must take action and must cut off all aid. it must cut off all diplomatic cover. and if it may have, even if it has to use military force, it has to enforce the rabbit the resolution. ok. and then when you have seen

bachelor say, i mean, the audacity say, well, this was non binding. nobody else in the room knew that lionel. but who is, but the next question is fine. who in fours is if you go back and you say, excuse me, we must now let, let's all vote for enforcement. if that were even possible. how would that occur and, and what are the mechanisms in place to do it? and if you don't have a that needs fairly aspirational, it's just, it's a see a rather go body. well then, well, go ahead like if somebody does come in on line with what i actually what, why actually take his point, the seriously and a great good number of my students regularly ask whether or not, and this goes to the point at lydell is making this international law is in the law in the absence of say, for instance, a centralized enforcement mechanism that we would have at most municipal or domestic systems. however, can it be said that this law which is binding is indeed law and bind. and so, but that's a fair question to ask,

but then one needs to assess or take account in the fact that international it doesn't operate in the same way that our domestic legal systems do. there is no centralized enforcement mechanism, but we do have our various mechanisms, one of which is the security council of the united nations who does have the authority to pass and binding resolutions on all member states of the united nations on the article 25 view and charter, and in this case we have great solution of the council and demanding demanding that is obligatory a ceasefire. and so to the extent that israel is violating that demand to him to a cease fire in the gaza strip, there is no question that as a matter of international law, they are d like they're there. they are violating that law. the next question is as line was mentioned, well, what next? and so the next question is moving to the council. again, for more t a resolution that would be passed at the council, which would provide for sanctions on israel for failing to abide by its international legal obligations under ought of under resolution $2728.00 and so on

. and so, even though in a while, as we say under domestic law, we have direct systems of enforcement under international either less direct but they exist none the less and simply because israel, an outlier and the united states, also an outlier on this question, are violating law doesn't mean the law doesn't exist, it does exist, and the palestinian people are experiencing the neighbors sold. the failure to abide by this international law in their person. some 32000 or more dead killed rather, some 70000 or more injured. and 1700000, and that's 85 percent of the population of the gaza strip, forcibly transferred all of them indiscriminately bombarded a starvation being used as a tool against them. these are serious matters now. the principal judicial organ of the united nations has said all of this amounts to plausible genocide, cancelled action must be taken by states. they all have obligations to prevent

genocide. these are positive obligations they exist for the united states may exist for canada, where i'm sitting a test for every member of the genocide convention and so on. so action can be taken. we just need the political will to get moving. she a bit now. so in action is, is, is culpability as well. i'm, i've titled this program genocide in arms. and if i can go back to my introduction with lloyd austin, you know, unshakable. i mean, that is pleading guilty to the actions of your co conspirator in the middle east, and that's the israel. so for the heck, do you have to go out to this new building genocide that what happened? yeah, between deland. now do we do often actually at gal him give him a list of the white ones that he wants to bring out to this room. and during his visit, that to me is actually that the us is actually just facing hawk. the old buddies were using those came out to the security council. this is for 2nd. we need to

check the real and the fact that the actual u. s. political pores in to the citizens until now more than $240.00 ship. and we're actually kind of old kind of wavelengths that were sent to live, right? yeah. oh, so you can just to check the other trigger. this is more than 2000 bleed b. uh, bear with me. its been over there to get on a israel directly to this well, so if we want to be honest to be a friend to what, oh our fuck units. we have to say that they, you asked if they came plus and they are part of this. i'm going, genocide is a pull bond. this is the only description that we can describe the us action since the october 7th. i'm filling out and actually if we want to retain back in history, i'm ready to have the us just

a guarantee that is right. it will always mean team have a, what do we can't describe has advanced the military aid all over the region in order not just to, you know, secure or, or to give as low as they say, a variety of defense. but to ensure that they do mean anything, the whole area, and no one will ever had the problem with that sir. with that is that when that had gemini is challenged, then the united states is it's putting itself into a position where it has to fight all of israel's enemies. and that's exactly what the government in, in israel wants. and that's and yeah, and wants the united states to fight it's worse for it. you agree with me? yeah, it's a fault and i agree with this, but the thing is how they will fund it down by the ones that different dish and hope how we will i see those golf. so there's actually one to actually i bill if you can send in 3 on so i don't and let me delete it. then israel is the one who's

leaving the restaurant extra, the middle east. but the thing is, we're on the back there to hold that thought we have to go to our hard break. and after that hard grateful continue our discussion on palestine state with our team. the welcome back. across stock were all things are considered on gabriel about commend you were discussing palestine the you know, the line and let's go back to line or new york, one of the things that it really weighs heavy extra weight have on all, all of us here. is it particularly in the united states, but it through the rest of the world in general? but in the united states, all of this is kimberly bit genocide. they won't use the word of course, and that allowed to, but all of what's going on is all couched in,

in the election calculations. so, you know, biden's gonna lose michigan who could do it. anyway, i, i find it, it, it, it almost takes the life out of me. i mean, here put the 10s of thousands of people are being killed and worried about which direction one congressional district. my go. i mean, that is true. so hollow, it shows how hollowed out western society is. lionel this week, which one of the, the biggest fund raisers ever at radio city music hall with the obama and clinton. and then in a raised $1020000000.00. the, the, the democratic party has been absolutely dead mora been in a coma. and here's the best part in peter you. and i have talked about this before, the people, this is this associates a friend. and for me, the people that i,

i used to dismiss as being my political and capital opposite to whatever i am now. listening who make more sense. i read somebody to a friend of mine was one of the most cogent answer regarding what the american responsibility is to the saving of lives. children and then people starving and i read it and i said guess who said that alexandria. ok. so again. okay, so say the same thing has happened to me over the last, but taking the last few new cycles. yeah. and i'm thinking of myself, wait a minute. the also the rise of, of platforms this week, also in new york, obviously would be in baltimore. there was a bridge collapse and button said, where are we, you know, we said we will, we will put this together. we will pay for this. so people ask, where are you getting the money for this? and we all said, ah, good question,

isn't it funny when it comes to our infrastructure and up there, by the way, this very domestic get them? i don't mean to boy, but, but to show you there's this question that people should be asking is, where do we get money to support ourselves here? where is the democratic response and peter, you, when you're from a generation where the left to progressive left were part of typically almost argued typically anti war. and i, and i finally, i'm saying if you just could replace the words israel with, let's say france or scotland and the how could france do this? there would be a completely different discussion. forget the word genocide. so what we're doing is, again, i'm living in a, in a n n a, a 1st ball. but the democratic party, the republicans are very clear. they're absolutely adamant they are, they are consistent, but the democrats years get to products, and this will be the chance for the republicans to, to seize upon that, to form a schism. they won't even go. yeah. but so, but line will that it, that the downside of that is,

or republicans or pro israel and palestine. so be careful what you hope for professor in ottawa, you know, one of the things, it's very unsettling for me as an american coming from the west is that, you know, the west is um, come to terms in many ways with its colonial saddler projects around the world and they, they, they lay their face in shame. theirs will talk of reparations about how countries or peoples all around the world recover from colonialism, imperialism, but it's the west and almost exclusively in the west. but it is promoting a settler, a colonialist project in the middle east, and they don't, nobody in the west likes to talk, but it's too uncomfortable. you know, i mean, you know, i get a line on i as americans, you know, you know, what we did to the native americans was shameful, with slaughter. we didn't use the word genocide, but that's what it was. but the west now it says flipped and saying, well this project is ok, professor. yeah, uh, yeah, no very,

very good point. and in fact uh, as a canadian, but we have under gone very much the same if you like transition. uh, uh the, the representation of what canada has done to the 1st nations people, the indigenous people in canada has been effectively whitewashed. where now, where we sat and a few poorly about it in the public, but little is done to assist the situation of real people on the ground, living in poverty here in canada to our 1st nations. and so this is given rise to mind you that a lot of this concern for the settler colonial project or reconciliation with what we have done in the, in the quote unquote new world is profound. it is. and we have proof of that, not only by how we treat, how the states and canada, the united states and other settler colonies treat their 1st nations peoples. but all foreign policies as well. and is the fact of the natives of palestine where an indigenous population is very yearly and in real time any continually since 1947

undergoing a process of an ethnic cleansing of displacement on the one hand and replacements on the other by combining by folks who want to take their land and resources take, for instance. the very many public statements made not merely statements, but actions taken by his really meters who indicate that once and gas that used ethnically cleanse the ones the palestinian population. all $2200000.00 of them are driven into the sign i or driven so somewhere or perhaps even into the sea that they will take over their land and build properties and resettle the gaza strip and so on. so as you, as you rightly point out, there's a continuum here, and it is no, a wonder why israel's staunchest supporters in the guise of matter. now, are the settler colonies of the west, the united states, canada, and someone that needs to be called out. and i'm glad you put that question to us,

but i do think that it is self evident for a lot of folks in the global. so certainly the medians, certainly the south africans who've taken this case before, the international court of justice on genocide and so on. so we're at an inflection point gather, has provided an inflection point in international relations driving a wedge between the global so. so you can see what's actually happening on the ground in gasoline and to the beleaguered guys in palestine in population and other small countries. the smaller number countries but far more powerful in the industrialized west. yeah. now, so one of the most pathetic things, i mean it's almost a half of year of just unbelievable tragedy. and, and, and for the most part, the, but a, the leads in the west turned their face away. they don't want to see it. okay. if i don't see it, then they're not culpable, but everybody can see it. all right. so jared questionnaire, the son in law of donald trump, his comments in the it was in the telegraph. he was at the kennedy school and he

just talked about the as the palestine. question is if it was just a real estate issue, you know, that's fine. i saw that video and i loved it was not true because it's an infected that have been late. i think the who we were actually live and under for the past 100 to years. because this 3 yet is an open space for all kind of you know, absorbing resources and just making more profit. and so then we're just not the humans. and the humanizing us makes this land and hope and land warm yusef loves who will gain and make more money and the name of the more expensive the like nation which is actually not just gonna um see me but it's actually um it's just i it's i can't imagine someone is just can just talk about the appropriate use of the guys, those people who are actually guild, systematically for the last 6 months and just joke. so easy to about it. i think it is like um, you know, a commercial project where this land is, uh, you know,

i gonna have to bring the lower investments for um, but it's right heavy as, and that's why they should and they have to, you know, okay, if i, at this you're not the rich coast. who are you just forgot to tell the students that the school that the mail was more than one being. and so then 100 . i'm assuming i looked in the same area actually what she's proposing is let us just participate fully because it isn't profits and money. definitely. oh all the more so is like, oh so don't know. good. all those kind of thing. it's all the more. so it's in some of most of the palestinians, look, gaza strip. they've already been displaced. maybe sometimes many, many times. i mean, you keep pushing them that way. i mean, it is really extraordinary. you know, line on it. and you know, you and i have known each other for a very long time and, you know, with a sarcastically ripped apart this whole works culture. you know, i'm a victim,

you're a victim. were who is the victim on the totem pole and all that. but i've seen bard to blake ballast any and so not victims are they. it's just amazing to me how the left, particularly in the left. they can go down the they buy the totem pole of who's been victimized, but the palestinians are just not there. you can't see them, we're not allowed to see them line. oh, yeah. if, if ever, you know, peter, i, we, we always, well, we, the, the right always speaks of this mythical magical, incredible wizard, saul, a lensky, and how he created this, these a, these a die the dialectic and, and let me tell you the way it works here is very, very simple, then you can watch any television show or any kind of, of attempt of discussing it. you will ask the question, do you recognize it? how much is a terrorist organization? do you believe that what that is real has the right to defend itself. and then for some reason it just stops. and to show everything begin on october,

the 7th. and it's, and that's the launching port. what would you do? what am see, wait a minute that that doesn't even be getting to even even remotely. but she, peter and gentlemen, as you know in our culture, you have a one minute black. if you are lucky or any major cable news or the air quotes your news, and that's as far as it goes. do you know what it's like for anybody to say, let me give you 75 years plus of not true, but perspective it's, there is no time for that. it's look, that's a tough place. they've got to defend themselves. and we, we invoke 911. yeah. yeah. what i'm saying, they have had a rough day about a time and memorial. they've been enemies here. let me, let me finish off with the professor. i don't owe you guys. why don't i? why don't i just get in on that order. you just to go back to peter with the point to do the new made palestinians being able to represent themselves. this has been

a classic problem and edward, so i put it very, very well when he asked a tony and she for permission to married situation with palestine is as simple as you mentioned in the gaza strip. 7075 percent of the population are themselves not guessing their palestine refugees who originate from areas that became the state of israel in 1947, 4849 and are only in the gaza strip in force to exile because they're not jewish because the state of israel is prohibiting their ability to return their right to return to their homes from which they were forcibly professor, i mean, all right, i have, i have to jump in here on this very sale in point, but we've run out of time. i want to thank my guess an auto in new york and i'm on and of course i want to thank our viewers for watching us here in archie and see you next time. remember prospect rules the the,

the headline stories this, our india stays its exchange quote, various initiatives with ukraine's foreign minister to resolve the conflict with russia. suggesting the 10 i key of to when you deli over may have come up support. skepticism is also heard among the indian public, tory, i don't know who is india because that seems to take care of quite a ways yesterday, around blames israel for an overnight or a strike on northern syria, which reportedly left almost 14 people that in the city of a level and the number of fatalities from last 5 days tear read silicon most go climb to a 140 some western media outlets attempted to.
