Jon israel is preparing for the next stage of this war that is now in it night and day. Major land, air and Sea Offensive in gaza aimed at destroying it dismantling the Terrorist Group hamas. Rising on israels northern border with lebanon where hezbollah is ramping up attacks. Good evening. I am jon scott and this is a two hour Special Edition of The Fox Report. We have Team Coverage. Jillian turner at the pentagon on how the u. S. Is assisting Israeli Offense forces and that retired army general. First mike tobin live in southern israel with the latest on the looming gaza offensive. Mike geared. The Artillery Fire continues. Rocket fire comes in from the gaza strip. Well watch at the edges of the gaza strip as this looms. The armor and artillery on the gaza border. They are getting visits from the top rest. I minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Also the army chief of staff. With a message that indicated that the Ground Invasion was imminent. [speaking in native tongue] our responsibility now is to enter gaza, take over the spots where hamas is safe, we need to hit hard every spot, every commander, every combat it. Destroy the infrastructure. In one word, when. Jon Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu met with the families of the hostages. 126 confirmed hostages at this point. Older than the age of 75 and their medical conditions range from a baby that needs formula to parkinsons disease to people that need treatment for gunshot wounds. The risk of life is very severe. There is also a Health Crisis inside of gaza where food and fuel have been shut off. Today, with the looming humanitarian crisis, israel turned the water back on despite earlier promises that the siege would be absolute until all of the hostages were released. Jon. Jon mike, this Ground Invasion many people without by now. What are the circumstances that are holding them back cushion mark. There was reported that it was held back by weather. Theres a number of criteria that need to be met to ensure the safety of the soldiers going into the conditions were not right and that is why being told for by the Ground Invasion was held back. I can tell you watching the weather all day today the weather was absolutely perfect. Jon. Jon Mike Tobin Reporting live from israel. Thank you. The Defense Department also named the uss Eisenhower Carrier Strike group into the Eastern Mediterranean. There will join the highly advanced uss Gerald Ford Strike Group which arrived in the area last week. A show of force off israels coast. Jillian turner limit the pentagon with more on all of that. Jillian. The pentagon insist that the u. S. Has no plans, no intentions of putting american boots on the ground inside of israel for the duration of this conflict. Secretary austin is back stateside now. In an interview last night, he pressed the importance of excuse me, the challenge is that the idf will face Going Forward once this potential ground incursion into gaza begins as you just discussed with mike. Take a listen. This is an urban environment and probably a three dimensional battle. Because as you know, hamas has constructed a number of tunnels under the city. If they conduct a campaign into the city, they will have to account for that. They have done this before. They have learned lessons. They really have to think this through, and i think they will. The administrations Top Priorities are working to free american hostages in preventing this war from becoming a wider regional conflict. I dont want to see any Actor A State actor like a real or hezbollah opening up additional fronts that it will distract the forces from the primary fight against hamas. Secretary austin issued a new directive. The Carrier Strike group moving to the Eastern Mediterranean as part of our effort to deter hostile actions against israel or any efforts towards hamas attack on israel. Senator tom cotton told Fox News Sunday this is precisely the right message at the right moment to send israels enemies. Nothing should be off the table. I ran and hezbollah should understand we have two Carrier Strike groups in the region for a reason. We will not sit by and let iran and cats paws like hamas and hezbollah try to destroy israel like a nation. 15 americans remain unaccounted for steel. The white house on friday in the Press Briefing confirmed that just under a handful of those americans are being held by hamas endows out. Jon. Jon probably not a question you can answer, jillian, but under what circumstances would an attack on iran come about . Is there anything the pentagon is thinking iranians may deal that would bring a retaliatory response from those ships offshore . Pentagon officials is saying the u. S. Has no plans to get involved with boots on the ground in this war. Even, jon, should it expanded turn into a broader regional conflict drawing in all the powers in the middle east. They have been working particularly hard over the weekend to try to generate a lot of support from allies in the region to help prevent hezbollah from becoming fully involved in the conflict. The pentagon insist that any presence there throughout the region right now, whether it is the straight carrier groups are u. S. Military personnel serving in a strictly and only advisory capacity to the israeli government, jon. Jon iran is pulling the strings , that is for sure. Thank you, jillian. For more on this, lets bring in retired general joseph. The Senior Fellow of National Security at the Middle East Institute in the former commander of u. S. Central command. Obviously, the United States is supporting israel in every way that we can. Are there things going on behind the scenes that the public is not generally aware of, general . Thank you. Great to be with you. We are seeing a lot of u. S. Leadership visiting israel. Today, i think, the commander is in the area. There is a lot of support advisory information. All of this going on behind the scenes with this to make sure that the israelis are set up for success and what will be an extraordinarily difficult ground campaign. One of the Big Questions is will hezbollah get involved. They are up there on the southern border of lebanon. Hamas for all that barbarity that it showed in the attacks of last weekend is not considered as strong as hezbollah. If hezbollah gets involved in the israelis have to fight a two front war, how does that change the equation . It changes it significantly. It will require israel to make very difficult decisions on allocation of its resources. Whether its to the north or the south they could delay or Impact Campaign down into gaza, certainly. It has very, very significant implications for the campaign. As you mentioned, hezbollah is very capable. Much more technically enabled. Better weapons. More fighters. More organized. It could be a very serious threat. Which is why it think we are seeing the United States posture and the way that we are here to send a very clear message to the region about trying to prevent any enlargement or expansion in this conflict. But if the United States has made it clear we dont want to be involved, how effective is the Deterrent Force if we are not launching Cruise Missiles into iran or at hezbollah camps or hamas sites . The way it is effective is these Carrier Strike groups can hold hezbollah, can hold my ron and other actors that may try to step into this. They can hold them at risk. The United States can make decisions down the line about perhaps those resources if it looks like it is expanding the conflict. That is the idea. The deterrence is a factor of both capability and wealth. I think we have seen a strong message from our government in terms of our support for israel. Now we are seeing the capability show up in theater that can back up that wall. Jon certainly hamas did not want this barbaric attack and think there would be no response from the israelis. They had to know this incursion into gaza is coming. I, personally, just have to wonder whether they have wired the tunnels. Whether they have laid antitank mines in the streets in anticipation of precisely the kind of response that israel is launching. That is exactly right. As Secretary Austin said, this is a three dimensional fight here. Not only the surface, but it is in the air, above the ground and buildings and other structures there. It is also subterranean. There are reports that hamas has built, you know, over the years about 480 kilometers worth of underground tunnels. This is significant. There should be no allusions on how difficult this fight is. Being backed by countries like iran making use of explosive devices, we should expect to see that. I suspect that as a lot of what the Israeli Forces are doing right now. Making sure they are well prepared. Have the right array of organizations that they will need to go in and be successful in this environment. It is engineers, it is explosive ordnance and a whole bunch of intelligence that they will need as they conduct this campaign. Jon retired general, joseph votel, now the Middle East Institute. Thank you for your expertise. Thank you. Meantime, protests over the war continue across the world. Police breaking up a rally in Berlin Germany after pro palestinian demonstrators took over vigil in memory of victims of the hamas attacks. [speaking in native tongue] in the Indian Capital new delhi locals took to the streets showing their support carrying israels National Flag and Holding Signs with strong messages against hamas here in the United States, Violence Erupting at a protest in los angeles.

Jon our coverage of the war between israel and hamas continues right now. Irans Foreign Minister met today. Iran is a big financial backer of hamas and says it will intervene if the israeli operation in gaza continues. Meanwhile, people are scrambling to get out as rocket strikes ramp up. Israel Defense Forces come up more than 1. 1 million civilians there to evacuate. The State Department now says 30 americans are confirmed dead as a result of the war. Thirteen remain unaccounted for. Held hostage by the terrorists. The Biden Administration is prepared to said more israel assistance. The second Aircraft Carrier heading towards the Eastern Mediterranean. The Uss Eisenhower will join the gerald ford aircraft Carrier Strike force in a show of strength and support for the jewish state. The attack by hamas seen as an effort to disrupt the relationship between saudi arabia and israel. Mark merited the joy does live from the white house with her on that. Good evening to you. The headline is the news coming in from the State Department that the death toll has risen. Violence began eight days ago. They are now tracking 30 u. S. Citizens that have been killed and 13 who are unaccounted for. They say the Hostage Crisis remains a top priority. The u. S. Is working with israelis to bring all these people home. Those are the latest numbers that they have. An ongoing situation that continues. We are also watching how President Biden is responding to all this. He posted online that he has once again connected with the israeli Prime Minister to reiterate support for israel and provide an update on our Military Support an effort to protect civilians. A time that all countries that do not represent the aspirations of the Palestinian People. The president also spoke by videoconference with the families of americans who are held hostage. Trying to get those updates together from washington. Careful not to provide too many details publicly because they are worried about compromising the American Safety even further a bipartisan congressional delegation saw firsthand the situation on the ground in israel. Chuck schumer the highestranking jewish leader in u. S. History that he was even rush to a shelter as rocket fire going off in tel aviv. The center said he and congress are doing all they can to show support for israel. We cannot let this evil continue to crowd the earth. So, in the face of this horrific attack, we are here to share a message of resolute solidarity. We say to israel, america will stand with its ally israel. We have now seen obviously members of congress that have made the trip to israel as well stop Administration Officials as well as the Secretary Of State sand defense. President biden has been invited to israel by Prime Minister netanyahu. The white house said they had no trip to announce. We are watching the threat here at home with the possibility of violence in the wake of what is happened overseas. U. S. Officials say they have stepped up security and they continued to track the threats coasttocoast. Mark, thanks. The clock is ticking until House Lawmakers vote for a new speaker at noon. In florida congressman taking matters into his own hands for chartering a flight to wartorn israel and helping evacuate 96 stranded americans. Reports say that he has not finished yet. Lets bring in new york congresswoman on the House Republican israel caucus in Foreign Affairs committee. Thank you very much for being with us this evening. We still do not have a speaker. There has been lots of turmoil, especially on the republican side. Will there be a speaker this weekend will there be a vote on aid to israel that will help said that country the funds that it wants . I am hopeful we will get a speaker this week. There are too many world events taking place, friend, ally, israel needs our support. We need to be sure we secure our border. We need to use the leverage in the process to get it secured. Senator schumer refuses to take action. Seeing what is happening Around The World, it would be ridiculous if the senate and the white house did not work with us to finally secure our border here at home. I am hopeful that my colleagues will put aside our differences and see we must unify for this moment. There needs to be leadership. We often do not see it from the white house and the senate unfortunately does not take up a lot of legislation that we have passed over or pass their own legislation so we must unite as a conference so we can move our country forward. There is just too much at stake at this time. The country appears to be backing israel in the latest poll when asked does the United States have a responsibility to protect israel. 53 answered yes. 43 answered no. The interesting thing when asked how the president has handled this war, do you approve of President Bidens handling of the israel hamas war, only 41 of americans actually approve. Even some of the president attractors said he has been very strong and vocal in his support of israel. Do you see a problem with the way the president has handled things thus far . I do say the president has been vocal in his support and i appreciate that. I am happy that he is finally organizing those Charter Flights to get american citizens out. My colleagues and i have been calling for that. What we saw in afghanistan, ukraine should have been quicker more of the issue is the role that the president has played over the last two years in reducing the respect that america has on the world stage. When you see the Appeasement Policies going from maximum pressure under President Trump to lifting sanctions, lifting waivers, the 6 billion that was announced, still announce that he would release that to iran. All of that has an impact. The withdrawal from afghanistan. We are seeing, unfortunately, a president that is reactive. Now it is great that he is trying to be tough on hamas and the Terrorist Organization, however, we have not been tough on iran which providing the funding. That is, i think, the difference i am happy that our Secretary Of StateAntony Blinken has been in the region speaking to our allies trying to prevent this from spreading any further. It is great that the carriers are there in the mediterranean. It is great that we are helping americans get home. We need to prevent these types of things from happening. When america shows strength it deters us from the very beginning. We said this with russia debating ukraine and we are seeing it now with our good friend israel. Jon our last 30 seconds. Your fellow republican Congressman Cory Mills organizes flight that has brought americans out of israel. Just give us your thoughts about that. I think that that is real leadership. He did Special Operations in the military. He has been helpful in my office a number of citizens from my district that are reported that he is been helpful with. I also want to say thank you to greece, to cyprus for providing those humanitarian ability for, im sorry, the clearance for american citizens to be going through their country to return home. We want to see every american come safely and we need to support our ally at this time so they can fully destroy hamas Terrorist Organization. America, we need to be strong and united and support our good friend. We thank cory mills for his service. Army veteran did a spectacular job. New york congresswoman nicole malliotakis, thank you.

Thirty americans are confirmed dead as a result of the war. Thirteen remain unaccounted for. Potentially being held hostage by hamas terrorist. The deadline has expired for palestinians to leave gaza. A Ground Invasion. Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu has pledged to defeat hamas and exterminate the bloodied monsters. Hospitals are overwhelmed with patients and supplies are running low. They say without more fuel and basic resources, thousands in their care could die. Secretary of state Antony Blinken meeting with the princess morning saying we will continue to stand with israel. He also doubled down on israel having the right to defend himself against hamas terrorist. Antony blinken also visiting egypt today and will return to israel this week to keep the war from igniting a broader regional conflict. Considering the fears of a wider conflict, as Israel Masses troops along the border with gaza the head of the on Ground Invasion there, things are heating up in northern israel where haswell has been Firing Missiles from lebanon. Backed by iran. Senior Foreign Affairs coordinator greg palkot has a latest. That is right. We are in northern israel keeping an eye on what could develop into a second front. In just the past hour we have heard outgoing and incoming fire take a look at what we saw earlier on sunday from another vantage point. You are looking at the israeli Lebanon Border just the other side of that Mountain Ridge is lebanon and that is where the iranian backed hezbollah Militant Group is. It is been showing various military positions all along this border today. We have heard some of it and we have heard israeli tank fire responding. Hezbollah has threatened to go big year of israel escalates in the south, that could be coming up. Very fierce enemy. They claim to have 100,000 fighters in their ranks. They could have as many as 150,000 rockets in their arsenal they have clashed multiple times with israel in the past. Israel says it does not want a war with hezbollah. Hezbollah says that it is just warning israel with these various strikes but they are deadly. We have seen deaths and injuries today. Probably most significant, jon, we heard from iran today. If israel invades on the ground in gaza, there will be far reaching consequences from its partners in the region. That is why the folks here watching very closely what is happening down south. That Broad Campaign land, sea and air by israel against the hamas militants in gaza. Said to rollout with the huge buildup of troops and the folks here are watching also very closely. The plight of civilians, palestinians in the gaza strip. Hundreds of thousands are fleeing from what is expected to be an Israeli Ground incursion focusing on the northern side of the gaza strip. Reminding our viewers this is all interrelated. Hamas is backed by iran. Hamas is an ally with hezbollah. Hezbollah is backed by iran. It is washington worried, too. And the pentagon. They just sent a second Aircraft Carrier group to the mediterranean in this area joining one already sitting off the coast. Just in case a show of force. Back to you. Hezbollah did not take part in the atrocities of last weekend. The butchery of this is really citizens on the kidnapping of hostages. Since iran is the puppet master, it does seem that if israel goes into gaza with a full Ground Invasion, iran is going to order hezbollah to attack just to tie up as many Israeli Forces as possible. That is the fear, jon. Some people are hoping that iran does not want to risk another fullscale war on this front. Hezbollah very important to iran basically a bulwark between israel and iran. Israel, when things settle down in gaza wanting to refocus on around and start hitting for example their Nuclear Program infrastructure so there is some argument to say that stability from all the partners here might be a better interest for the bad guys, the good guys, whatever. The statements today coming from tehran is very simple. Israel, you go in on the ground. We will make trouble elsewhere. That is what they said. We will see if they are up to their words. Jon. Thank you. For now more on the possibility of a second front on the war and even wider conflict. Lets bring in jim walsh. Senior Research Associate at mit Security Studies program. Jim, running gaza. They took power in 2006. They have not given it up he. How much support do they enjoy among the palestinians that live there . That is a good question. Good to see you, by the way. They won an election in 2006 and subsequent in 2007 took power. They have held power ever since. As a people politically responsible for making, you know , road improvements in doing the things a city or area supposed to do, hamas is held responsible for that and there are grumblings. Complaints. For palestinians living in gaza, the larger picture for them is that israel controls what goes in or out of gaza. They broke primary responsibility on israel and then they complain about hamas. At least as it advertises itself as defender of the palestinians that much palestinians support because they blame israel for their current situation. Why do the people continue to support hamas to whatever extent they do if the conditions in gaza, the Living Conditions are as horrible as they are said to be. I agree. First blush it is a puzzle. But they are bad. That affects hamas which loses Domestic Support the more things go on and they are terrible which may have been an incentive for them to act. Again, if you blame some other party for your own condition, no matter how bad the condition gets, if you think its somebody elses fault that is a different situation. There is a Historical Context here. This year it did not pop up in 2007. The parties in the region, the palestinians and israelis have a long history here. People have taken sides on that. Much more likely to support their own side then they are to blame their own. What do you think are the chances that israel get those hostages back, jim . Well, i think it will be really difficult. I think we will see a Land Incursion. All of the signs are pointing in that direction. You yourself said people were expecting it sooner rather than later. I think that once that happens any sort of space for some negotiation or some sort of swap to get those people out will be very difficult. So i think that that will be more casual. Jon, actually, the think that i would urge loyal fox viewers to keep in mind is we have had this terrorist attack. We have had the opening phase of the israeli response. Now we will be in a second very different phase. Some of the most difficult fighting you can do. The amphibious assault, Urban Warfare is as tough as it gets. No uniforms, rumble hiding snipers, i think we will have to stripe in. This will be very difficult over the next few weeks for everyone. The soldiers, palestinian soldiers in everyone. Security expert jim walsh the tap you on. Thank you. Thank you. Jon wall to wall coverage of the warren israel continues when the fox were ordered returns.

The deadly hamas attack on israel is raising concerns about our security here in the United States especially given the crisis at our southern border. Just last week customs and Border Protection stopped what they call specialinterest aliens migrants from the middle east trying to enter the United States illegally. Griff jenkins live at the border in eagle pass, texas, with that. Griff. Hey, jon. We are continuing to see them come along with the wave after wave of violence in this area. It has mostly been venezuelans, ecuadorians, hondurans but we had to lebanese, one egyptian, all single males here in this sector on thursday. We just learned in the last hour that in iranian man was apprehended. Sometimes its difficult to get the best information from them. Because not only the officials attention but concerned citizens we can show you video we showed earlier. Concerned citizens from texas came down here, rolled out a banner that said close the border. It had an american flag. They wanted to talk to officials and say how upset they were to learn that these folks from so far away are coming. The sheriff nearby said he is worried about it as well. Listen. It would have been nice to know who they were and how they caught them. What surrounding counties would be nice, but they are not letting us know. Learning that migrants from 98 Different Countries have come in the first 14 days this fiscal year. Back to you. Griff jenkins at the border. Thank you. Here to waiting in on more of his thoughts jeff andrew. He sits on the committee where jim jordan the speaker nominee is the chair. I hope you get that speaker both this week. Let talk about the lunacy of the situation at our Southern Border Israel had a robust security system. They had a fence, sensors, armed guards. Hamas basically walked right in. What are your concerns about the nonsecurity that we have at our southern border . I sit on the judiciary committee, i also sit on the subcommittee of immigration. What we have seen, what weve heard when weve spoken to the Border Patrol, we have visited numerous sites, it is unbelievable. This is the definition of lunacy we should not be accepting any palestinians in the United States of america at this point. Even if they are not terrorists, they require thorough background checks, number one. Number two, the other still hates america and hate israel. It is not the time for that. This is the definition of lunacy your stupidity and it is ruining the country. It is hurting our United States of america. No country that prevails would allow their borders to be open in this way. This is dangerous. We will hurt our american citizens. I hate to say this, i am not trying to frighten people, if they continue on this road we want something happened that is catastrophic in the United States of america. I am truly very concerned. The palestinians aside, we do not know who is among the millions of people that have just walked across the border. Weve got Tens Of Thousands of people from china, chinese nationalist, what is that about . Why are they here . We have people from every corner of the earth and some of these corners are bad places with bad actors. God almighty we have to take care of the United States of america. We are at a critical time. We are at the precipice. Everything that is happening now that we talk about going on in the middle east and israel is from weakness. The weakness from this administration. Allowing our borders to be open. Not following the rule of law. Demeaning and diminishing and defunding our police. Everything that they do is weak. I have said it before and again i do not say to be partisan or to be aggressive about it, but the truth is this is the Worst Administration in my mind in the history of the United States of america.

The bill would rescind visas of anyone embracing terrorist views the department of Homeland Security would be prohibited from allowing palestinians into the country through its parole program. Israeli Military Leaders are praising one of their elite k9 units today. The military reporting the special unit rescued more than 200 israeli during last weekend s horrific attack. That k9 teams spread out across order towns to battle militants that had taken hostages and barricaded themselves in israeli homes. It means staying in hebrew. The k9 unit has been around since 1974. Each k9 is trained in a specialty from attacking to Search And Rescue to detecting explosives. Tonight hollywood is mourning the loss of actress Suzanne Somers.

He said israel launched airstrikes into lebanon are going after hezbollah. Any response from the lebanese and government such as it is . Whats really put a lot of response from the Iranian Forces think theres only so long iran can stand by as they conduct the operations into the gaza strip. If they wait until tomorrow to back off the chart will be too late the bite administration the pentagons order second Aircraft Carrier that he did for the Eastern Mediterranean for the Uss Eisenhower will join the uss Gerald Ford Aircraft Strike Force i and to further strengthn support for the jewish state. Washington d. C. Christopher wray announced a surge in threats here in the u. S. Mark met up towards us live from light white house with more on that project jon good evening to present buying another update for the National Security team on the situation in israel. He is also spent time speak with the World Leaders to get an idea of whats happening on the ground. Do all it can to make the conflict is not been a larger and the actor be it a state actor like a route or another Terrorist Group like hezbollah waiting the conflict opening additional fronts list Destructive Forces in the primary fight against hamas. White house says f dealing wh the waiting for the news about their loved ones for Additional Resources and the threats of both here and abroad. In israel to get a firsthand situation. Firsthand situation. We heard from Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumers and vowing to do all he can to support israel in its hour of need. Our country will stand by you in these difficult times. Israel is a strong nation this moment we say to israel you are not alone. This has been a heartbreaking Heart Wrenching Experience for me, for my colleagues, for you and for the world. To such brutality. Theres been such a large effort to get americans out of israel been trying to get out you can also see the video a large number of high profile lawmakers officials make their way in here we see the secretaries of State Defense make the trip to israel what about President Biden customer there is a report out of israel Prime Minister netanyahu offer the president a visit to israel even this coming week white house aide say they have no trick to announce just yet and the president is on the road tomorrow heading west to colorado. What about ukraine . Ukrainian president said he is essentially worried that because the worlds of focus is on this war in israel ukraine is going to be very much forgotten. Is there any talk about ukraine at the white house or how they balance the two . There is talk the white house has made it very clear they can provide assistance to ukraine on a continuing basis will also do them with ongoing developments in the middle east request president zelenskyy has talked about what is happening in israel and where he stands for he believes this these two way and here he talked about this is also a growing humanitarian crisis in the middle east for the president speaking with officials they are in egypt as well as jordan and the United Nations all in an effort to try and show its not just the United States trying to deal with this but ukraine will be front and center with additional request to congress in the weeks and months ahead theres a lot of questions about if and when congress will be able to get to all of that theres been such a backlog ever since the house lost its speaker, jon. Jon the vote on that is supposed to take place this week. Lets see if we get a new speaker. Mark meredith at the white house, thank you. For more on this last spring in florida congressman member of the House Armed Services committee. Obviously israel can use all the help he can get right now. How much can the u. S. Provide when we dont have a House Speaker . And the house is supposed to be authorizing some of these budgetary needs . So far we have not received any kind of request for authorization. Once we do it becomes an issue either we have a speaker or we have a speaker pro tem we need to get that individual more power to bring things to the floor. And carry out what to do some about the speaker pro tem. We have a speaker that is incapacitated, injured, et cetera the house business just cannot stop. This is a big hole that we have to fill and we have to fill it now. Jon is that of the moon on both sides of the aisle is far as you can tell to continue to support israel in every way possible . Thats what the pres president s he wants. There is. Theres a wide bipartisan support for the state of israel. Why condemnation of what hamas is doing what hezbollah is trying to do on the democrat side that are siding or criticizing israel its a little disturbing its not sufficient to change anything. We still have a wide bipartisan support for the state of israel. Jon you do not see that flagging . The invasion of gaza could go on for months some people say. As that happens and with the inevitable body count continues to rise do you think there will be flagging support in the u. S. House . Look, i cannot talk for anyone else. For me the only way to pieces victory. We have seen what hamas has deadly sin the total destruction of israel. If i were israel i would totally destroy hamas and their ability to wage terrorism and war at whatever price to terrorize their own citizens. I am going to support israel 150 . I think that we are going to have wide bipartisan support for israel to do that. Theres going to be some images that hamas is going to be distributing Around The World because of using their own citizens as human shields. That shows you the barbarism how barbaric they are and the need to be eliminated. That will never happen again in the future. I am there and im sure the house is going to be there too. Jon you talk about terrorism there is great fears Sleeper Cells are already operating in this country just waiting for orders from countries like around the situation at our porous southern border has allowed some of this people to get in. Tell us your concerns. Exactly. Jon we have about 2 Million People we have the Faintest Idea of who they are. They sneaked in these are god always. And so why are they trying to sneak in . The border is wide open you can walk into the normal ports of entry. You are going to get a phone and be shipped to wherever you want and come back in about 10 years when your Asylum Hearing is due. There are still 2 million that did not want to do through that. They wanted to sneak in. Who is in there . We do not know. We do not know who they are and we do not know what their intentions are in the United States of america. So yes i am deeply disturbed by this complete failure of this administration to protect the homeland. And i will tell you what, mark my words i hope not but we could have a significant issue here in the United States in light of what is happening in israel and in light of the fact we do not know who these people are or why they are here. You could have a bunch of Sleeper Cells sneak into the border because of our porous border because of President Biden. Thank you President Biden, appreciate it. Jon it is a frightening frightening prospect. For the congress and thank you. Thank you. Jon mayor of new york city eric adams delivering an emotional dress throwing the citys full support behind israel and condemning those who have taken to the streets to stand up for hamas. Cb cotton live in fox square now with more. Good evening, jon for Ground Operation in israel will no doubt strain the further division felt by the states by those with ties to israel or gaza. Meanwhile new york city mayor eric adams is doubling down with his views on the israel hamas war proud started the mayors speaking at a church on Staten Island not only blaming Quote Demonic Energy for the Surprise Hamas attack in israel but also telling people hamas does not represent those of the muslim faith. This according to that the post wpostwho said that mayor also Sd Quote Then She was a demonic Terrorist Organization killed innocent children, raped women destroyed and shot down people in front of their loved ones. That is not islam. This comes after an earlier fiery message getting peoples attention. This was intentional. This wasnt bitter. This was nasty. This was something that shows hamas must be disbanded and destroyed immediately. We are not going to say we have a Stiff Upper Lip and act like everything is fine. Everything is not fine. Israel has a right to defend his self. The mayors support of israel comes as protests continue at colleges and universities. Yesterday at harvard more than 1000 students gathered in support of palestinians read speakers of the Relic Calling for a ceasefire in gaza israel needs to end its occupation of the reason for It Rally Organizers releasing a joint statement on the event after words saying when they speak out about deaths in gaza and in support of the Palestinian Authority they are not endorsing violence against innocent lives for this comes after some of the same organizers based backlash from across the country for a joint Statement Released earlier this week blaming israel for the Surprise Hamas attack. Prompting academic leaders to speak out should pray the president saying in her third statement the university does not support terrorism, rejects terrorism. But still embraces free expression. Ask a lot of people were surprised by the full throated defense of israel from new york citys mayor because there is a significant Arab Palestinian Population here as well. He is not mincing words. Eric adams says theres only one side to be on in this conflict. Jon, he has made it pretty clear he is standing with all of this. It is important to note outside of israel, new york is home to the largest jewish population. Perhaps he is speaking out so strongly the vast majority of the demonstrations in the protests we have seen here in the city are in support of palestinians. So i think the mayor i am assuming hereby think the mayor at once to make it really clear about where he stands with all this. Cb Cotton Reporting live from fox square, cb thanks.

Jon our coverage of the war between israel and hamas continues with headlines albert irans Foreign Minister met with the head of hamas and qatar today raising fears the work it escalate. Iran is a big financial backer of hamas said it will intervene at the israeli operation in gaza continues. Hundreds of thousands of palestinians have been scrambling to get out of gaza after israels evacuation order. Israel has forces along the gaza border ahead of a Ground Invasion that appears eminence. The u. S. State department now says 30 americans are confirmed dead as a result of the war. Thirteen remain unaccounted for and potentially are being held hostage by the Hamas Terrorists the pentagon is sending a second aircraft Carrier Strike group to the Eastern MediterraneanOfficials Say the show of strength off israel aims to send a message to hamas, hezbollah and their backers in iran. Gillian turner live at the pentagon with that story. Quick Secretary Of Defense austin talk to his counterpart the Defense Minister. He insisted publicly over the weekend a couple of times with the pentagon did the u. S. Has no intention or pla plan to put any american boots on the ground inside israel. Here is the secretary discussing some of the major challenges he foresees the idf having as they move forward should they launch this highly anticipated Ground Invasion of gaza. This is an urban environment it is probably three dimensional battle because as you know hamas has constructed a number of tunnels under the city. And so if they conduct a campaign into the city they will have to account for that. They have done this before. They have learned lessons. And so they really have to think this through and i think they will. Administration Top Priorities are working to free american hostages and preventing this war from becoming a larger regional conflict. We do not want to see in the act to be at a state acted like a runner another Terrorist Group like Hezbollah Whiting this conflict opening up additional fronts that will distract israeli Defense Forces from the primary fight against hamas. Laissez Secretary Austin secn issued a new directive ordering uss dwight Eisenhower Carrier Strike group to begin moving to the Eastern Mediterranean as part of our effort to deter hostile actions against israel or any efforts toward widening this war following hamas attack on israel. Senator tom cotton tells Fox News Sunday this is precisely the right message of the right moment to send to israels enemies. Nothing should be off the table and iran and hezbollah should understand we had to Carrier Strike groups in the region for a reason. We are not going to sit by and let iran and its cats paws like hamas and hezbollah try to destroy israel as a nation. Two things breaking this hour. We just learned Secretary Of StateAntony Blinken negotiated a reopening of the egyptian controlled crossing into gaza. He says hes working with the un and israel in a couple of other countries in the region to try to get aid through. We do not know when or exactly whether that will begin. We also known outside which a blanket is returning to israel tomorrow to speak with Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu that is the second time for the Secretary Of State this week. The opening of the crossing is big news the israelis had told these people they need to get out but there is nowhere to go where there hadnt been until now because egypt would not open the Rafah Crossing Prefix that is right section blinken earlier today on the tarmac before he departed cairo made some remarks asked by a reporter in the crowd he said indeed hed struck a deal to get rafah open he did not describe a timeline to that he said it will be reopening presented with 80 said he is working with counterparts now pretty much across the region to try to get aid to start flowing through purdue going to reach out to the pentagon to find out if theyll give us any more detail or sense of timing on that. It would as you say a crucial reopening potentially. Julian turner, Great Reporting thank you. Thank you. Jon for m from one of the spria multiNational Security analyst doctor Rebecca Grant preaches president Iris Independent Research also a fox news contributor. Your thoughts first of all on the opening of that Border Crossing into egypt . The Palestinian People had been sort of ponds throughout the mideast for years. The egyptians essentially did not want them into their country. That is why they kept the border close for so long, right . That crossing . Interesting news and it tells me two things. One, egypt is playing an enormously Important Role here but all behindthescenes do not forget it was egypt that actually brokered the ceasefire back in 2021 after the hamas war. The crossing at rafah is not only people coming out, but it supplies going in. Good job by Secretary Of State blinken getting egypt to consider what is going on here. I think egypt very much wants to see the same goals. No escalation, lets get this conflict over as soon as possible and the ability to get supplies into gaza through rafah is as least as significant as getting people out across the crossing when it does reopen. Jon israeli leaders are very determined and talking very tough. You can understand why given the magnitude of the losses they suffered last week. But they do make the military forces have to walk a fine line when they go into gaza dont they . Yes they do. Their first objective is to do it frankly what they did not get done and 2021 after that muscle war israel really thought they had taken out most of hamas Military Capability with the missiles, obviously not. Plus this horrible surprise escalation egged on by iran. So what the idf has to do is try to wipe out hamas Military Capability. But without creating a desert and a wasteland in gaza by the population of gaza is still going to have to go back and live there when this is over. That is very clear. So israel has to be effective but they have to be precise and very discriminant they have got to have the intelligence Military Intelligence to really figure out where that capability is they need to go and take care of. They have a big job ahead of them i think that is why you see them saying Everybody Move south they will work on the northern part first. Interesting Secretary Austin pointing out there going to have to go get some of the underground tunnels and really eliminates that hamas Military Capability built up by iran that is there in gaza. Jon you mentioned intelligence is obviously in huge Intelligence Failure this attack took place with nobody apparently aware of its an advance on the israeli side or the u. S. Side. But the United States is obviously going to be sharing whatever intelligence it can with the israelis and those capabilities as Collection Capabilities are formidable. Oh yes. This Intelligence Failure is going to hurt forever this stastingwill never go away. So what is essential now is for the israelis to sort out where theytheir good intel really is. Where do they think hamas key capabilities are and how do we help them. In a lot of ways everything from our ability to look at satellite imagery, electronic communications, even infrared imaging that shows you how people and tunnels move around within gaza. All of that intelligence is going to be combined im sure we will share everything that we can. We may even use some of our commercial imagery providers to help out with this. All of that is then going to taffyfocus to the Israeli Defene forces to make their tactical judgments about where they need to strike. With the key areas really are and then how to make sure hamas Military Leaders do not seep away as this offensive begins. That is at least as important as figuring out which targets to strike they have to be recorded around this and make sure the get command and control of the capabilities they are really going after. Jon israelis have promised to wipe out hamas lets hope they can succeed military national nl Screwed AnascaredyAnalyst Rebet thank you. Thank you.

Jon our coverage of the war between israel and tried to continue south headlines at the bottom of the hour. State department now says 30 americans are confirmed dead as a result of the war. Thirteen remain unaccounted for potentially being held hostage by the Hamas Terrorists by the deadline has expired for palestinians to leave gaza as israeli troops amassed at the border for a Ground Invasion. Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu has pledged to defeat hamas and exterminate the blood he monsters. Medics and g in gaza worn hospis are overwhelmed with patients and supplies are running low. They say without more fuel and basic resources thousands in their care could die. And Secretary Of StateAntony Blinken met with Saudi Crown Prince this morning saying we will continue to stand with israel pretty also double down on israel have the right to defend itself against Hamas Terrorists. Blablinken is also visiting egyt today and will return to israel this week to try to keep the israel hamas war from igniting into her broader regional conflicts. Tensions are escalating along the israel Lebanon Border has blood files missiles into northern. Brucfears are growing at a Posse Second Battlefront as israel prepares for the anticipated Ground Assault in gaza. Senior Foreign Affairs correspondent greg appel caught is live near the israel Lebanon Border. Greg what is going on . Absolutely, jon paid quite a bit is going on. We are just about in this direction to my left about a mile and a half away from lebanon here in northern israel. Lebanon of course the base for the Radiant Backed hezbollah militant spread but we have seen the last 10 or 15 minutes is a pretty major fire fight. We are hearing Automatic Rifle And Machine Gun Fire coming from the lebanon side we have been seeing flares go upset by the israeli Defense Forces probably to spot the fighters and we have been seeing a lot of outgoing. That is from israel going into lebanon. This is just one of about six or seven incidents that have happened during the past 24 hours here up and down the border there have been casualties. One is r israeli has been killed several have been injured a lot of hits both ways exchange of fire, Missile Fir Fire by israel into lebanon people are saying this is the hottest time on this border since 2006 that major war between israel and hezbollah. Hezbollah of course a fierce enemy wanted a thousand fighters 150,000 rockets. Definitely an entity to be reckoned with. Now, how it relates to what is going on in gaza right now is the question. Israel said today they do not want war with hezbollah. Hezbollah said today these are just warning strikes. But as i noted, jon, warning strikes that are deadly and leading casualties. The most significant statement we heard on sunday it was from iran and Officials Saying if israel goes in on the ground you might hear the explosion behind us right now. If israel goes in on the ground in gaza there will be, his words, farreaching consequences involving our partners in the region. Again iran is backing hamas it is backing hezbollah it has real interest in what is going on here. That is why they are watching what is happening around gaza as israel from what we have been hearing and seeing is getting very close to eight land, sea, air invasion of Gaza To Route Out root out the hamas militancy for the carnage they left last week and also on the ground they are being watched carefully by a lot of different folks of a lot of different capitals the civilian situation inside Hundreds Of Thousands of palestinians fleeing what could be a very serious Land Incursion very critically focused on gaza city the north side of the gaza strip. Again as we are Hearing Explosions behind us lets just wrap this up again reminding our viewers hamas as an ally of hezbollah. Hamas and hezbollah are both backed by iran. Everything is interrelated. Probably why its broadly hinted by the pentagon today when they announce and yet another Aircraft Carrier group was coming to the region. Thfor theirweek two sitting off, a show of forced from washington again im looking and listening as the firefight continues here on the border with lebanon. Back to you. Jon Greg Palko Reporting live from a dangerous part of the world. Greg, thank you. As we just reported israel preparing for that Ground Invasion of the gaza strip, hospitals there say they are desperately low on clean water and medical supplies they say without help soon thousands of patients could die. Lets bring in doctor janette fox news medical contributor member of both rescuers without borders and the Disaster Assistance relief team. Doctor this is right up your alley. You spent four years in rotc and college you wanted to be an army dr. So you know a lot about battlefield medicine. The israelis obviously could have used more medical help on a sasaturday when the attacks came in. But it was such a surprise they simply lost a lot of people had they gotten medical help quicker would have been able to be saved. Hey jon good to be with you. Israel has some of the best and brightest most competent and capable Healthcare Providers and Health Care System globally. I have seen that firsthand working with them throughout International Medical missions from the earthquake in haiti over 10 years ago, we saw them working in the border and also throughout covid. Highly competent people. Highly competent country but when it comes to war when it comes to a mass casualty. When it comes to earthquakes or shootings or tornadoes who are in a different arena you are in a whole new ballpark. That is because resources become limited when you have mass number of patients g it overflod the hospitals put it over floods the healthcare system. You have limited resources pretty run out of medications pretty run out of oxygen and you look in some areas if there is polluted water. There is poor sanitation. If theres not enough oxygen. If you dont have antibiotics is when we see lives lost unnecessarily. It truly truly is devastating to see this happening both in israel and gaza. Something that should not have happened but obviously because of the Terrorist Organization causing these attacks and causing these atrocities that could have been prevented. Jon are also on the front lines in ukraine was that a mission treating Wounded Soldiers . Arewere you treating civilians r both . It is a good question. We would treat anyone that needed assistance. We were in lviv, ukraine a lot of the patients that we took care of war refugees those who were fleeing the bombings, the destruction of their home but fortunately they had a place to escape to they could go to the nearby countries like poland we would see all kinds of injuries and disease we would have patients, with burns on their legs with broken bones, fractures, dehydration, pneumonia eve had a patient come in with a heart attack. Fortunately we had donations and the resources to take care of them. We were at times also overwhelmed theres Hundreds Of Thousands of patients fleeing coming in at once. And despite the number of doctors if you run out of resources if you run out of medications then it becomes a problem. What we see for example in gaza and in israel you have patient being displaced. Families being torn apart because of the terrorist activity. Some of them trying to flee and leave. Especially worried for those infants for pregnant women prefer those who are disabled, the elderly, those with chronic medical additions that need dialysis or cannot get their Weekly Iv Medications for cancers. Those are the people we also worry about the most because they are so vulnerable its difficult to Access Healthcare in these type of hostile environments. It is tragic and my heart goes out to them. I pray for them and hopefully they get the medical care and medical need the humanitarian aid they desperately need. Jon are you have Doctor Friends on the ground there they need equipment as well, Bullet Proof Vests even. Yes. I was just recently in morocco africa on a medical mission with rescuers without borders our team leader hes actually in israel right now. On the front lines taking care of many of those who have been injured i asked him what you guys need question ricky said theyre working very hard aroundtheclock taking care of injured israeli people and one of the main things they need yeses bulletproof vests because they have to protect themselves will they are out there in harms harms way. We are certainly praying for them and volunteering and donating everything we possibly can to help them. Dr. Janette nesheiwat.
