Palestinians in gaza. 95% of the water is undrinkable in gaza prior to october 7th. the people in gaza really are in a bad place, but you can t be fish in a barrel. that s essentially what s happening right now with this broad bombing and moving people around. 2million people displaced out of 2.3 million people. yeah. these are conditions that we need to speak out more and make sure that it doesn t become a regional conflict because of the overly broad attack that s been coming in response. i want a surgical response to hamas and that s what should happen and we saw that happen in beirut when they recently took out a leader, but we aren t seeing that on the ground in gaza at all. last point i m going to make and i don t think you re going to disagree with. i don t know that israeli intelligence in gaza is as good as people thought it was as proven by what happened on october 7th. congressman pocan, good to have you on. thank you so much. we ll be right back. ....
Are into your country. they slaughter more than 1,200 people, literally burn babies, rape girls, kidnap old people. what should israel have done? they should respond and go after hamas. the problem is hamas probably is 30,000 people by most estimates we have seen, but there are 2.3 million palestinians and others living in gaza and clearly this response has not been a surgical attack that we saw quite honestly in beirut when they recently took out a hamas leader. when you kill 100 people to kill one member of hamas, which has happened. even the president said in the indiscriminate bombing that s occurred, that s the concern. that s what people around the world are seeing. that s why we ve been with israel at the u.n. when this issue was discussed. i get that and it would be great if hamas operated like any normal military and had some sort of army base and israel could just go after them in their army base, but i m ....
On commercial shipping. but what part convinced you that that was eminent and needed to be done rather than going through what article 1 of the institution would require the president to do. the escalation that took place last tuesday, where there was over 20 rockets that were fired at our commercial vehicles and some of our ships. that shows they can do something the next day. they did have those capabilities. something had had to be done immediately to say we were not going to allow that to happen. and that response between the targeted response it wasn t a response that was huge. it was a very targeted response. it was adequate by the administration under article 2. congressman, always appreciate talking to you. you always have a lot of information and nuance around these complicated topics. thank you for joining us this afternoon. congressman mooex. much more ahead on the houthi targets. ....
So they have their options and the capabilities and the u.s. went into this knowing all those were possible and now waiting to see how the houthis respond, which is something they have very much promised to do. the white house says they re confident they have the legal authority to carry out these strikes. there s some members of congress who disagree. what s their argument? reporter: this is an important point. by the u.s. constitution only congress can authorize an act of war. they weren t given authorization. they were notified it was going to happen. because of that, the president had the authority to act, but this clearly wasn t a quick response. given the number of countries involved, the level of coordination this required, this clearly involved a tremendous amount of planning and because of what went into this operation, the scope of it, the size, those members of congress are arguing look, congress needed to authorize these strikes on yemen, not simply a presidential act. ....
