of america. now tonight isreali soldiers are on the ground in gaza battling hamas, other units are clashing with hezbollah and lebanon. hundreds of others are being held hostage underground in gaza, a network of 300 miles of underground terror tunnels to kill isrealis and take them hostage that is the war hamas has been waging against israel now going on for decades, now is the time for i real to win this war. we have u.s. soldiers in iraq and syria, they come under attack from iranian pox is around the region. we have two powerful strike groups in the mediterranean sea not far from israel. keep in mind, this is your state of the world under your president joe biden. and another massive war still raging close by with hundreds of thousands dead in ukraine and millions displaced and joe wants to face a proxy war with russia and not causing europe to pay their fair share. back home, china is buying up thousands of acres of farmland and ranch land in country and u.s. military ins
palestinian prisoners are released from israeli prisons. joining us now, the reporter behind the reporting. thank you for joining us. you have so many new developments. let s begin on the hostages. that is quite a demand now coming from hamas where your reporting in the last 24 hours or so has been that potentially israel had some leverage here at this point to try to say, look, you can return to the north of gaza if you release more hostages. where does it land? good morning. so i think that as we can see the negotiations over new hostage deal are ongoing but parties are very much far apart. and because they are far apart, each side is trying to give more and more demands to try to somehow break this log january an isrealis came up with the new demand because they knew that
jerusalem was screaming out death to arabs. senior palestinian officials are sighing we hold you, isrealis, official, in the same way you held us responsible for the death of the three israeli teens. the big concern is escalation at this point, brooke, it doesn t take much for it to grow into something bigger. we saw demonstrations and clashing between young palestinians and israeli security forces. okay, and again, just quickly after that june 12th and the three israeli teenagers went missing, quickly israel said
problems for the president. they go beyond immediate issues but into what is he and who is he as a leader. thanks so much. we re talk about the issues and policies. foreign policy, u.s. allies and members of congress slamming a historic deal on iran s nuclear program but they are not alone. isrealis prime minister benjamin netanyahu said it s a historic mistake. we cannot and will not allow a regime that calls for the destruction of israel to obtain the means to achieve this goal. we will not allow iran to have a nuclear weapons capability. israel is refusing to recognize the deal reached over the weekend, even though the six month agreement slows iran s nuclear program in exchange for lifting some of the sanctions. returning negotiators received a hero s welcome in tehran in the midst of all this. jim sciutto has been covering the negotiations. historic agreement or a blow to
actions speak louder than words. what message will this send to american jews as matt says they are trying to start this campaign of buyer s remorse. the first message is there s a long standing bipartisan consensus around america s commitment to israel and israel s security. and i don t think that there s any chance that the republican party is going to be able to open up a wedge and i don t think they should try to open up a weather channel over the u.s./israel relationship according to israel s own defense minister security cooperation has never been higher this, president has been extraordinarily committed and trying to achieve peace in a two state solution. matt, before heading overseas, mitt romney really lit into the president s foreign policy towards israel but when we look at what the president has truly done he s arguably got isrealis biggest enemy, osama bin laden out of the way. he proposed a bid for israel statehood.
