connected. hate toward one group left unanswered, -- more hate towards more groups, more often. the antidote to hate is love. the answer -- is solidarity. stand up for everyone humanity. that's what laws they particulate matter. every single american, no matter who you are, no matter where you come from. this shouldn't be about conservative, liberal, red or blue. it should be about -- it sounds corny. but a promise rooted and the sacred and secular. where all people created equal. and -- life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. [applause] folks, it may sound corny but we've never fully lived up to that promise, but with never looked away from, it like many want us to. and we're not going to pull away from it on my watch. i promise. you all of you here tonight and all the allies across the country. i see the light that's going to try to cover the darkness. i see the hope that's going to conquer -- the love that's gonna overcome hate in all its forms. i see a great nation because we're basically good people. just remember who we are -- all that were good folks, we have got to stand up and holler. we have got to stand up and holler. we cannot be silent. silence is complicity! silence is complicity! folks, where the united states of america and there is nothing beyond our capacity when we do it together. nothing, nothing, nothing. so let's stand together. and get everybody else -- godless you all and may god protect our troops. thank you, thank, you thank, you thank, you thank, you -- >> that was president biden, addressing the war in israel and hamas at the human rights campaign's annual dinner. you heard him use the libra for ten years over the last week. silence is complicity. talking about the loss and uncertainty, people are experiencing israel and of course calling for a protection of hate and it's -- an estimate it troops appear poised to look allowed squirrel grunt offense and gaza. prime minister netanyahu told his troops today, next stage is coming. are you ready? and the idf said it is quote preparing a coordinate attack from the air, sea and land. this show of strength comes one week after hamas terrorists and florida southern israel, massacred scores of civilians, and took over 150 people hostage. at least 30 people have been killed so far in israel and over 1900 in gaza. moments ago, we learned the number of americans killed is up to 29. ahead of what will look at the awful skeleton ambition, israel or the inter population of northern gaza, more than 1 million people to evacuate southern to the south. minute more than 1 million people were told to grab their belongings, abandoned their homes. a task that you ends it wasn't possible. and arrest for him amateur in disaster. the news shows palestinians desperately taking safety steps from their homes. a young woman described him to leave but have nowhere to go. >> no one has a place right now, if you have a, cowardice run. no one knows where we are going. but we're all evacuating. just pray for us. and hopefully we'll come back home. we will come back home. >> and basin is also spoke to a mother and son today as they packed up to at least got city for the south. >> we live here without water, electricity and internet. the life, like nothing. we have a lot of rockets above us. and no place is safe and cause it right now. >> there are also up to 600 americans stop and gaza. and a possible root out for them fell short today. egyptian and israelis reached a tentative agreement to allow u.s. citizens to leave gaza through the rafah crossing, but when they got there, the crossing was closed. the humanitarian crisis and gaza is growing ever more ominous as israeli troops prepare to push in. president bryant was briefed today, and he spoke to prime minister netanyahu this afternoon. that president reiterated both unwavering u.s. support for israel and his foreign against anyone seeking to expand the conflict. with us now on the ground and as roads and bitter news correspondent alison parker. alison, i want to start by asking last time we spoke about an hour ago, there was a lot of rockets overhead. a lot of activity and the sky. what is happening, what's been happening over the last hour? >> on the, hole it's been kind of eerily quiet. but in the last hour, we've heard, by our count, at least nine times the boom of artillery headed in the direction of gaza. but a bit far removed from where we are, but you can hear it and the distance. we've heard, sort of here and, fear waves of this, just, but as of either drums or fighter jets in the sky. we've heard both of those over the last hour of them flying overhead. we have seen on the road near us, flat beds passing by with israeli tanks on top of him. and the last few days, we've seen a massive amount of israeli military equipment headed in the direction of gaza. a massive amount of troops headed in the direction. we have seen tanks, we've seen at least 100 of those in the past couple of days. that's a conservative estimate. we have seen more military vehicles than i can count. we have seen flatbed carrying artillery, heading towards the border with gaza and we've seen flat bags carrying heavy movement machinery towards the border. with gaza. again, right now, it almost feels eerily quiet in pockets, despite the fact that we have heard the booms of artillery. we haven't seen the gaza skyline winding up orange and quite a while, and we haven't seen, in quite a while, missiles coming from the israeli side, at least in this direction. and the north of israel gaza border headed towards gaza. we haven't seen that and the last little bit, quite as frequently, you'll probably hear some traffic between. by the time cars come by, near where we are, jim, it's not civilians, its military equipment or military forces. again, moving in the direction of gaza, civilians in this area, they've been evacuated. there are no civilians we've seen today. yesterday, near another city, not far from the border, there would be normally more of a heavy concentration of civilians. we saw maybe, maybe 14 people in the area. almost everyone had left. it felt like maybe a ghost town. >> and i know you've been following this closely, it sounds of the activity and the evening picks up a bit? is that what you've seen the last couple of days? >> typically it does, especially around 10:00 local time. at least in our experience in the last couple of days. and again, we are on a section that is to the north of the israel gaza border, right along the area. usually between ten and midnight and as the sun sets, we see more activity. last night, when we were in a similar location, it was a bit quiet right around this time as where hitting the 2 am, three i am, for a marks. it's a little bit quiet, but last night was the sabbath so it's something that might have made more saints. other night, it's been pretty hectic, pretty chaotic. when the sun sets, yeah. it ebbs and flows and terms of what is normal. but i would describe here and here at the last couple of hours of how it's been here as a bit different and it does feel oddly quiet. jen? >> alison barbara, thanks very much for breaking this so much reporting from the ground. we appreciate it. and joining me now is ben rhodes, who is a former deputy national security adviser to president obama and i worked with him very closely for many years. he's also msnbc contributor. so, ban you and i have been through many, many troops to israel, trips to the return together. and i want to start with a tweet you put out today. you say the toughest bit met now going to impact millions of lives -- and risk owens of escalation. that u.s. should have learned from 9/11, the profound cost of being quite a bit anger and fear. i hope that is what we are telling the israeli government. how short the united states -- we so irate out from the prime ministers call -- but tell us more about the private composition may sound like? even if it's not what we're hearing publicly? >> yeah, well, jen, you and i have paint and rooms where there were conversations in which the u.s. really can deliver a couple of messages at once. first, you have obviously heard this based on some of. israel's understanding of a profound trauma they've been through, with this horrific attack and this legitimate necessity of killing after the hamas militants, the military wing of hamas. that continues to threaten israelis. and that's part of our messaging. in this case, probably more so than that doesn't warrant you and i were a part of. there are others -- from of. support the aircraft carrier at this move to the region. the messaging directed at iran and hezbollah to stay out of this as part of the u.s. is doing. and then it additional support. at the same, time and this is kind of what i was referencing, i was in the tweet, you want israel to think for heart about the scale of which it goes into gaza. because a full scale ground invasion, and potential reoccupation of gaza, is something that goes beyond anything we've seen in the previous kinds of wars. and it would risk obviously the substantial loss of palestinian civilian life. and also could risk working about the escalation we don't want. we don't want that risk. breaking hezbollah end of the conflict or restaurant is put it in the west bank or risk significant demonstration, blow back in the arab world. and so, now is the time to think that through. because if you, once you unleash the maximum escalation, you begin to lose control of events. >> one of the obvious concerns here, if you're in israel or certainly in the white house, is the threat of iran. and while they don't have an diligence at this point to confirm iranians, their knowledge or involvement, there was reporting from axios today of iran passing a message through that you enter israel saying we don't want to escalate this, but if you continue this war or you continue your ground offensive into gaza, we may have to engage. that's obviously a paraphrase. you and i worked together a great deal on the iran nuclear deal, on the issue in general. what do you make of that? it sounds like a little bit of a justification but i want to hear your view on that? >> yeah, look. nobody quite as what's about to happen. it seems like there are certainly going to be a ground invasion of gaza. but the israelis have not put out their objectives to that ground invasion. which frankly, some of it is understandable. you want some ambiguity. but there might be a difference, or there is a difference between an invasion that -- trying to rescue hostages and trying to -- over ever israel as hamas. is there is a displacement of 1 million gazans, or even 2 million gazans. and essentially a flattening of the place. what part of your concerned about is if the dial stand up and that direction, you have had hezbollah already say they may feel they need to get involved. and hezbollah is a more sophisticated terrorist organization than hamas. they have more rockets at the northern border. that can make this harder. but also, ultimately, iran -- i think iran would get involved first and foremost through hezbollah. that is their proxy. that is their organization that is adjacent to israel, right on the northern border. so in some ways, that iranian message, i think, only reinforces what hezbollah's already said about him potentially getting involved, if conditions reached a certain point. we obviously double that to happen. for israel's sake. we don't want to happen for the site of the region. and i think the reason that u.s. is deploying this additional military hardware to the region is really a message to iran. stay out of this, keep out of this. but again, the motors escalates, the more it could bring in another actor. >> secretary blinken is on world went off a middle east trip right now. you have been a part of these, i've been a part of these. he's in saudi arabia today, egypt tomorrow. part of that is de-escalating, right and? trying to think about the day after. what other conversations, help it for but it understand her happening as his president capitals. what's he talking about to the egyptians tomorrow? >>, jim, i remember you being on a lot of these trips. we will take every day. i think, look at where he's going. each country has a unique role in some perspectives. qatar, there is hamas representation and qatar. and i'm sure discussions there get with colleges. and it's the, role in the past, you may ask why does the u.s. tolerate -- because it's a venue to try to negotiate things like hostages. i think egypt, obviously, has central to play. we talk earlier about that rafah border crossing. the only way out into gaza, but i hope he's talking about humanitarian access to get humanitarian support into gaza. right now, those people are cut off from everything. because of israel's siege. so in addition to things looking to get american citizens across that border crossing, i'm sure that, and i hope is a conversation about trying to get humanitarian supplies into gaza to provide relief to people. there may also be communications with hamas, egypt, to help in the past about hostages. i think that generally, if you look at saudi arabia, and the broader arab countries, i'm sure part of this is, i hope part of the messaging is around, look, hamas has to be absolutely condemned. isolated. at the same time, how do we support more viable peaceful palestinian leadership? how on the back of the conflicts might we be try to rebuild what's left of gaza? i'm sure there's also a question of normalization, several of his governments have normalized relationships with israel. the bottom administration doesn't want to those deals be put at risk. as this conflict escalates. i have to cite negotiation, normalization with israel, that's probably put to the support now. because there is no center that i can see which is normalizing relations while israel is providing and potentially on gaza. there's a demote -- aspect here. the core of it is, how do we prevent it from escalating? how to approach assistance? and how do we unify against hamas? which i think -- there is no love for hamas really anywhere in the arab world. ben, i'm using my old friend card just ask you to stay right where you are so i can talk to you more, after we take a quick break. it's after 2 am in israel right now. the israeli government said tonight there are murdered and missing people in 43 different countries. it's very global, following the hamas attacks. this includes at least 29 americans killed. we had a number of confirmed this evening, and 18 missing. we'll be back, after a very quick break. stay with us. stay with us a month, each lasting 4 hours or more - can be overwhelming. so, ask your doctor about botox®. botox® prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine before they even start. it's the #1 prescribed branded chronic migraine treatment. so far, more than 5 million botox® treatments have been given to over eight hundred and fifty thousand chronic migraine patients. effects of botox® may spread hours to weeks after injection causing serious symptoms. alert your doctor right away, as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition. side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. don't receive botox® if there's a skin infection. tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. in a survey, 92% of current users said they wish they'd talked to their doctor and started botox® sooner. so, ask your doctor if botox® is right for you. learn how abbvie could help you save on botox®. trelegy for copd. ♪ birds flyin' high, you know how i feel. ♪ ♪ breeze driftin' on... ♪ [coughing] ♪ ...by, you know how i feel. ♪ if you're tired of staring down your copd,... ♪ it's a new dawn, ♪ ♪ it's a new day... ♪ ...stop settling. ♪ ...and i'm feelin' good. ♪ start a new day with trelegy. no once-daily copd medicine has the power to treat copd in as many ways as trelegy. with three medicines in one inhaler, trelegy makes breathing easier for a full 24 hours, improves lung function, and helps prevent future flare-ups. trelegy won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. tell your doctor if you have a heart condition or high blood pressure before taking it. do not take trelegy more than prescribed. trelegy may increase your risk of thrush, pneumonia, and osteoporosis. call your doctor if worsened breathing, chest pain, mouth or tongue swelling, problems urinating, vision changes, or eye pain occur. take a stand, and start a new day with trelegy. ask your doctor about once-daily trelegy, and save at trelegy.com ever notice how stiff clothes ask your doctor about once-daily trelegy, can feel rough on your skin?

>> jen, a few things to consider. they probably have already started their operations to some degree into aspects. want, there was discussion yesterday of cross border, cross barrier entry by israeli forces. that is likely going for a hostage rescue operations. i would imagine they have good intelligence and specific locations are probably doing rates already, we're trying to secure some hostages and bring them back in or set the conditions for that. second, they're likely to make some reconnaissance on the grandest we'll, starting to get an understanding of where things lie, and, also what the humanitarian situation is like. are the pressures they've been building up, both diplomatically and with their own statements, as they do people to leave the area? because what they are probably going to immediately do is build a court on the northern section. there is a wall that breaks the north from the south. at that to the borders on the barrier fences, you cordon off the area. they've already laid siege in terms of food, electricity, and water. then, they would go very deliberately, probably, block by block, trying to hit what they think are key hamas targets. i think the complexity of this, that you, mentioned right at the start there is there is a three level fight. it is a highly urban area. it's on the ground, and it is subterranean. that subterranean component, no good reconnaissance on that. they won't be able to figure out what they're going into until they get there. >> you and i have both been a part of americans detained, individuals being held hostage. there's very little, of course, the u.s. government is going to say, for good reason. there's a lot that could be happening. as clint said, there may be an operation already underway by the israeli military. you are the resources? help us understand that u.s. could offer here. obviously, secretary blinken is talking to qatar and others. they could offer intelligence. what type of resources could the united states offer here? some are likely u.s. citizens. >> well, jen, you know, beyond diplomatic channels, right? the exploration of any kind of opening, vis-à-vis qatar or egypt, probably, just to appeal to humanitarian releases. women, children, the elderly, because i don't think there is likely to be an exchange. i don't think, you know, the past have been exchanges of prisoners. i don't think israel would want to release palestinian prisoners and reward hamas in that faction. it's probably different kinds of skills. in terms of operationally, i think it's probably principally the intelligence field. it is absolutely searching in resources, signals intelligence, surveillance intelligence, whatever networks the u.s. possibly can tap into to try to identify where people might be, where they might be held. the reality is from and military operational standpoint, i'm sure there is very open minds between our military and the israeli military, but jen, you referenced a kind of operations that you and i were in the situation room for, those were usually different. you know, those are usually kind of compounds, this kind of densely, densely populated area is just very tricky environment for any type of rescue operation. particularly rescue operation at missed a war zone, right? this is a place that could be bombarded. this is a place that's going to have some fighting. it makes it immensely complex, so, the decision to kind of launch a full scale ground invasion is going to both create and opportunities for rescues, but it's also going to put the hostages at risk, and that's the terrible balance and predicament that is currently informed the decision-making. and again, i think intelligence is really the best thing we can try to offer. trying to find where these people are. >> clint, you mentioned, obviously, they are launching an expansive campaign here by the idf's own explanation and own public statements. they're also dealing, of course, with attacks from hezbollah on the border with lebanon, hezbollah is a proxy for iran, serves as a proxy for iran,. again, if you're planning for the sun planning for all of the lines of attack, the lines of defense in the israeli military, how do you contemplate or factor in the threat of hezbollah? >> based just on the artillery pieces that you showed there in a few hours earlier, when i was, on it's very clear they have stacked the border to the north very, very heavily. there has been an exchange of rocket fire and artillery fire, it seems, like already. you also had a few rockets come in from the syrian side into the heights and over it. so, there are going to set their defensive parameter, and it's also important to note, just this past, summer part of the reason they were not well placed around gaza was because they were responding to protests and skirmishes in the west bank. so, through also concerned about all three of those fronts. i think the key components of them, and this is where having what we call interior lines of defense for the israelis, they have a strong strategic reserve. they mobilize so many personnel for this, they will be able, i think, to really dispatched troops to the north out to the east, towards the west bank, or, even to the south of gaza, if they needed it. so, the probably well positioned at this point, and this goes back to their battle for their practicing, the rehearsing for a long time, for any sort of mostly pronged war. that goes back 50 years to that yom kippur war. they should be prepared for this sort of thing now, the real question is, how do they go about going into gaza? how deliberately today do? it is speed the focus, or is actually just dominating terrain overtime, trying to take control of the whole area? it's always, you, know something that we talk about kind of too late, which is what would they do after, if they were to take basically northern gaza, will be the sustainment plan? for what they prepare for their? i think everyone's word about non state actors. you made a third of the day of jihad called that came out from hamas yesterday. that is where the threat of non state actors will really start to go on the rise as the weeks continue. >> ben rhodes, clint watts, thank you so much for sharing your expertise with all of us this evening. really appreciate it. up next, congressman roadman diego joins me next to talk about what america's role should look like in this war as the house of representatives is still without a speaker. we'll be right back. right back.

>> i actually was a reservist infantry man, and everyone i served within or were reservists. these or and they were firefighters, officers, some were lawyers, teachers, all walks of life that the site, you know, trace their hands and pledge allegiance to this country and i believe the something i was feeling when i got activated is certainly, but they are feeling right now a little bit of apprehension, a little bit of pride, the fact that they're going to go serve their country, but also with determination because they know that they have been well trained, and that what they're doing is right. their country was attacked. it was unprecedented attack. it was israel's 9/11. i, you know, i feel for them and i absolutely really am scared for them, too. i've been in a lot of urban combat, much too much, in my opinion, and what they are about to do is very difficult. it's very dangerous. and you know, a lot of them are saying goodbyes and they might be the last goodbyes. >> it's really remarkable to watch all these people getting ready and packing their bags to serve, as i know you did that's a reservist as well. a military official tells nbc news that the u.s. says white ice and hair we're carrier striker is departing for the eastern mediterranean. we're told this is preplanned but what's there, the u.s. love to carrier strike group in the area. in addition to the symbolism here, it's obviously a symbol of strength and a symbol of support. what does this accomplish? help us understand that. >> number one, symbolically it shows the people of israel and our allies that we are going to stand next to and support our closest ally, israel. number two, the enemies of israel, as well as enemies of the united states, need to know we are also standing by in case we need to be involved. what does that look? like we can't really go into details. but let me tell you, having to aircraft but strike rips like that, from my experience being on an armed services committee, that's a lot of power. it is an absolute projection of power that i think will make a lot of foreign adversaries, i would, say second guess if they want to get into more involved deeply in this conflict. >> and as we wait for the ground offensive to start, we don't have any updates on that at this moment, but we also have an impact of course of this evacuation order and the people of dogs who are struggling to figure out where to go. many of them have nowhere to go. but would you like to see the united states doing in this moment, regarding this pending humanitarian crisis? >> i think we are doing as much as we can, working with some of our partners era partners that have good communications into gaza. talking to egypt about opening up their borders to allow both u.s. citizens and other potential you know, refugees seeking safety. you know, we are seeing, obviously, on the other, and we should also be sending in, helping israel with a lot of intelligence. why does that matter? if we can actually point to israel, to the israeli defense forces where hamas is, it's where hamas supplies are, it will allow them to be more strategic and surgical about their tax, and potentially avoid civilian casualties. but this is. hard this is very hard work, doing urban combat is there a difficult, nature of it is going to be very slow, and it's going to be very tedious. but the fact is, you know, this is something that israel feels the need to do, because of the atrocities that occurred. the barbarism that these hamas has shown, no country would stand for it, and we need to make sure we are there to support israel in this process. >> this is not a moment for politics, but we have heard the former president suggests that hezbollah is smart. we've also, there's obviously, a lot of challenges happening in the house with the lack of a speaker. you've been on the armed services committee, you have served in the military. what kind of message does this send to the world. how do you think people are digesting what's happening here right now? >> it does not look good. to be honest, there's certainly some of the enemies of the united states, the enemies of democracy, are looking at this dysfunction on the house floor, looking at the former president praising a terrorist group, and dissing, you know, one of our allies. it tells you until suit that's if you're a foreign country, you can split the united states up, in terms of how we conduct ourselves, how we believe, and how we actually treat our allies. this is why it's important the republicans, if they can't get together to get their own speaker, to come work with us. we will find a solution to get us through the next couple of weeks at a minimum to deal with these national problems. this is why we need president trump to really respect and understand what he's saying, that he understands what he's saying has potential to really have you know, negative potential in the developing situation right now. we we are to say, maybe trump should be a little more quiet on this. hard to imagine, but you know, words do matter right now. world leaders, especially american world leaders, need to know that their words are going to have big, big footprints all over the world. if we say something incorrectly. >> words certainly do matter. congressman ruben gallego, thank you so much for joining me this evening. up next, we'll take you inside israel's efforts to track down a hamas leader. who they believe was the mastermind behind last saturday's attack on israel. our breaking news coverage continues after a quick break. we'll be right back. k. get help with j.p morgan personal advisors. hey, david! ready to get started?

[sound of artillery] >> [speaking in a global language] >> tonight, israel is vowing to track down the man it held responsible for the worst terror attack in the country's history. -- is the leader of hamas in gaza, and israel says the mastermind of saturdays orchestrated slaughter. >> he chose to ten we butchers in the bedroom to kill our babies. when they chose to go full front against israel, they signed their own death warrants. >> senior knows better the most devalues of hostages as human bartering chips. the son of palestinian refugees, he was supposed to spend the less if his life in an israeli jail after being convicted of terrorism. but in 2011, he was freed in a prisoner swap. israel releasing him and 1000 other palestinians to secure the freedom of an israeli soldier held captive by hamas for seven years. today, sin war controls the fate of the hostages. including yoni after's wife, tehran, and they're too little dollars, rot and aviv. diran seen here being blindfolded, one hand around her daughters shoulder, her mother next to her. >> when i saw this video, i couldn't believe what i'm seeing. it was the beginning of the route. >> using a tracker app, you follow the movements of his wife's cell phone. >> and i see the street name, and i recognize, this is gaza. it was hard to believe. >> if you could speak to the people who are holding your family, what would you tell them? >> show some decency. show some respect. if you are real soldiers, you will let them go. you will do no harm. >> it's rails as the attack was spearheaded by members of an elite hamas commando units, and that it's already begun targeting them from the air inside gaza. new documents tonight obtained by nbc news show hamas fighters carried detailed diagrams highlighting the weak points of israeli tanks. israel has bitter experience in settling the score. after 11 of its olympic athletes and coaches were murdered by palestinian terrorists at the 1972 munich games, that jewish state began a years-long worldwide hunt for those responsible. [sound of artillery] >> now, it's vowing to do the same to the man who committed a far greater massacre. >> we are going to destroy hamas so they can never, ever wield the sort of death over our heads again. >> a killing hamas's leader may be the easy part. [sound of artillery] securing a long term peace in gaza would be far harder. >> a big thanks to nbc's raf sanchez from that report from israel. up next, we continue to get updates on the growing humanitarian crisis in gaza, where food, and water in short supply, and paths to flee are extremely limited ahead of unexpected ground invasion from israel. our breaking news coverage continues after a very quick break. stay with. us >> with. us > when you shop wayfair, you get big deals for your home - every day. so big, we'll have you saying... am i a big deal? yeah you are, because it's a big deal, when you get a big deal. wayfair deals so big that you might get a big head. because with savings so real... you can get your dream sofa for half the price. wayfair. it's always a big deal. ♪ wayfair, you've got just what i need ♪ [music playing] subject 1: cancer is a long journey. it's overwhelming, but you just have to put your mind to it and fight. subject 2: it doesn't feel good because you can't play outside with other children. subject 3: as a parent, it is your job to protect your family. but here is something that i cannot do. i cannot fix this. i don't know if my daughter is going to be able to walk. i don't know if she's going to make it till tomorrow.

>> what i mean is that tubes of palestinians who have never been further apart, and further and more enraged and less able to hear one another than we have been in the last few days, need to come together around the simple principle that the human life, jewish, palestinian, is infinitely precious, and our faiths are mutually intertwined. because god has put us both in this very, very small piece of land. that is why i am very troubled about what israel is doing. believe me, i understand the rage. i was in synagogue today. they can do that the piece of paper with all the names of the captives, so we could pray for them. we are all in shock and agony. we are all in shock and agony, but ultimately, since i believe that's the fate of israeli jews and the fate of palestinians, including in gaza, are intertwined, we have to ask ourselves, and the israeli government and ask itself, in the long term, creating more massive destruction and death and trauma, even if we kill a lot of people come off and destroy a lot of weapons, you are also going to produce so many more people who come out of that area with hate in their hearts. it's that really need to make israeli jews safe? >> it's everybody, i think, wants peace, where many people call for it and you just mentioned it there. obviously, many people living in israel, most people living in israel, most people living in gaza, are not, representing hamas. how does this happen, though? one of the challenges here is the government is the fact that hamas has such control over the gaza trip, and maine, but is the step towards it? there's many fits and starts in middle east peace negotiations? >> the point they tried to make in that piece that you kindly mentioned is that this was an act of evil. but palestinians have tried actions that are ethical. they have tried to resist their oppression. and they are oppressed. israel's own human rights organization say israel is practicing apartheid. palestinians have tried to organize boycotts and asked for sanctions, and they have tried to appeal to the united nations and the international criminal courts. and the united states has played a really big role in shutting that down. my point is, if we demand that people resist ethically in the spirit of the civil rights movement, the spirit of the african national congress in south africa, and we do have the right to demand that they condemn hamas and resist ethically, we have to create pathways that people can resist ethically. and when we shut down nonviolent protest, we empower hamas. >> you mentioned the united states and the united states rule. the united states has been kind of evolved. they work for secretary carey when we tried to do middle peace negotiations many times. what role should the united states be playing in this moment? what would you like to see them do more of or less of? >> i think that the united states, i would like america's leadership to -- to its leaders. we know a little bit what it's like, how we feel, because we felt a little bit this way after 9/11. we were blind with agony and grief and rage. and you know what? we made a lot of bad decisions after that rage. we have, and so, we, as a country that has gone through this, it's easy to start a war. it's easy to destroy things when you have a powerful military, right? what happens two or three or four years down later, when israel is trying to occupy gaza, after they've destroyed everything? what, then? these are the questions we didn't ask well enough before afghanistan and iraq, that i think america's leadership to tell israel to start thinking about now. >> peter, as a very thoughtful piece. i encourage anyone to read it, if they want to know the history. thank you so much for joining me today. we are back, after a quick break. today. with if. if. oh... stuffed up again?
