And Blood Scandal victim stephen smith, who contracted hepatitis c from a contaminated Blood Transfusion when he was 22. He told me how the issues began after he had a Blood Transfusion in 1985 after losing four pints of blood when he accidentally put his foot through a glass door. I had a Blood Transfusion fuor Blood Transfusions in total and i would say probably six months after that. So probably 1986, i started some notice that my mood was changing and i was getting very lethargic. Did do sport back in the day. So ijust thought you might be sport that made me tired. So i didnt realise. And it went on for 36 years until i did find out which as a hell of a shock. Well, thats an incredible amount of time to wait before you found out what went wrong.

Hello and welcome to unspun world. Why is israels government deliberately flouting the wishes of its leading ally, the United States . Perhaps it goes to show what netanyahu is willing to do for his own political survival. This is definitely kind of bringing israel towards a more isolationist stance.

Cabinet has threatened to withdraw his centrist party from the coalition unless Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sets out a post war plan for the gaza strip. In response, Benjamin Netanyahu said implementing his demands would amount to defeat for israel. First, lets hear those comments from benny gantz. Translation something has gone wrong.

I wondered correspondent danjohnson. I wondered if we could start with a meeting Jake Sullivan is having with mr netanyahu. You are still trying to get some form of ceasefire . Yes to get some form of ceasefire . Yes, or at least a to get some form of ceasefire . Yes, or at least a guarantee to get some form of ceasefire . Yes, or at least a guarantee that to get some form of ceasefire . 1 1 or at least a guarantee that the Military Operation around raffle will remain restricted in order to limit the threat to palestinian lives.
