00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.759
<v Speaker 1>Barely ten days after Israeli soldiers bombed the Holy Family

2
00:00:03.839 --> 00:00:08.199
<v Speaker 1>Catholic Church in Gaza, Benjamin Netanyahu, the State of Israel

3
00:00:08.279 --> 00:00:11.679
<v Speaker 1>Prime Minister, has said that Israel is now being portrayed

4
00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:15.199
<v Speaker 1>as the enemy of Christians, stating that Israel has a

5
00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:19.280
<v Speaker 1>thriving Christian community, the only thriving Christian community in the

6
00:00:19.280 --> 00:00:23.199
<v Speaker 1>broad radius of the Middle East. Where Christians are not tolerated,

7
00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:27.640
<v Speaker 1>they're cherished, adding you can like Christmas trees in Nazareth,

8
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:31.839
<v Speaker 1>but in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus. When Israel left

9
00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:35.799
<v Speaker 1>and the Palestinian authority came in, the Christian majority shrank

10
00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:38.600
<v Speaker 1>from eighty per cent to hunder twenty per cent because

11
00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:42.119
<v Speaker 1>there was no more Israel to protect them. Though Prime

12
00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not mention the bombing of the

13
00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:48.439
<v Speaker 1>Catholic Church in Gaza that led to the killing of

14
00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:52.600
<v Speaker 1>three persons and injuring to several people, including the parish priest,

15
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:56.439
<v Speaker 1>it could be recalled that the Israel Defense Forces idf

16
00:00:56.479 --> 00:01:00.000
<v Speaker 1>action against the Christian Holy Place in Gaza sparked blows

17
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:04.680
<v Speaker 1>condemnations with the head of the Catholic Church, Poplio the fourteenth,

18
00:01:04.680 --> 00:01:08.599
<v Speaker 1>in a statement on Sunday, July twentieth, twenty twenty five,

19
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:12.519
<v Speaker 1>while speaking after his Angelus prayer, read out the names

20
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:15.719
<v Speaker 1>of those killed in the incident and said, I appeal

21
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:19.920
<v Speaker 1>to the international community to observe humanitarian law and respect

22
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:23.400
<v Speaker 1>the obligation to protect civilians, as well as the prohibition

23
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>of collective punishment of indiscriminate use of force and force

24
00:01:27.359 --> 00:01:31.599
<v Speaker 1>displacement of the population. During a church event on Sunday,

25
00:01:31.959 --> 00:01:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while speaking at the Daystars Together

26
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:40.400
<v Speaker 1>as One event in Jerusalem with Pastor Paula White, leader

27
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:43.599
<v Speaker 1>of the White House Faith Office, said Iran is now

28
00:01:43.640 --> 00:01:47.120
<v Speaker 1>being projected as the friend of the Americans. Word to

29
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:51.200
<v Speaker 1>word of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech has transcribed and

30
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:54.280
<v Speaker 1>made available by the Office of the Israel Prime Minister

31
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:59.319
<v Speaker 1>on Sunday. Reads below. Thank you Joni, thank you Daystar,

32
00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:03.599
<v Speaker 1>Thanks Paula, Thank you ambassadors and the many friends of Israel.

33
00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.599
<v Speaker 1>In the Christian world. This is the city in the

34
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:10.400
<v Speaker 1>land where it all began, the Judeo Christian tradition that

35
00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:14.800
<v Speaker 1>promoted the belief in monotheism a single God, that developed

36
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:17.719
<v Speaker 1>the idea of the sanctity of life. The sanctity of

37
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:22.120
<v Speaker 1>individual life, the idea of freedom. In an ancient world

38
00:02:22.159 --> 00:02:25.759
<v Speaker 1>that was swamped with massive slavery to build these ancient empires,

39
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:28.879
<v Speaker 1>the Jewish people came out with the idea that slavery

40
00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:33.560
<v Speaker 1>should be limited and ultimately removed. This was revolutionary. The

41
00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:36.800
<v Speaker 1>beginning of the idea of freedom began in this land,

42
00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:40.520
<v Speaker 1>and that idea spread throughout the centuries and especially in

43
00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:44.520
<v Speaker 1>modern times, and changed the world. It gives hope to

44
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:48.240
<v Speaker 1>the world. It gives meaning to our lives. It gives

45
00:02:48.280 --> 00:02:52.120
<v Speaker 1>a bond between the world's greatest democracy, the United States

46
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:55.680
<v Speaker 1>of America, and the world's vibrant democracy here in Israel.

47
00:02:56.400 --> 00:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>And that's a partnership that is bonded in faith, in history,

48
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:03.759
<v Speaker 1>in tradition. I had the great privilege of being invited

49
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:06.680
<v Speaker 1>to speak at the Joint Session of the American Congress,

50
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.560
<v Speaker 1>and I look on the wall and I see a

51
00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:14.400
<v Speaker 1>quote from Moses. That's our common tradition, our common well spring.

52
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:18.039
<v Speaker 1>We're immersed in the Bible, we live the Bible. We

53
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:21.000
<v Speaker 1>have a future because we have a past, and that

54
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:24.960
<v Speaker 1>past is shared by millions, hundreds of millions around the world.

55
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:27.879
<v Speaker 1>And I want to thank you on behalf of the

56
00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:31.159
<v Speaker 1>People of Israel and the Jewish people. Royal Thai Army

57
00:03:31.199 --> 00:03:34.639
<v Speaker 1>and the Cambodia National Ministry of Defense have both denied

58
00:03:34.719 --> 00:03:38.680
<v Speaker 1>firing the ten projectiles that destroyed civilian houses and properties

59
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>at Emerald Triangle, a city in Now on Thursday, just

60
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:46.080
<v Speaker 1>as both government establishments confirmed early in the morning on

61
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:50.639
<v Speaker 1>Sunday that fighting continued through Saturday night to Sunday morning night.

62
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:55.159
<v Speaker 1>Despite President Donald Trump of the United States US statement

63
00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:58.199
<v Speaker 1>on Saturday that he has spoken on phone with both

64
00:03:58.240 --> 00:04:02.120
<v Speaker 1>the Prime Minister of Cambodia and the acting Prime Minister

65
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:06.319
<v Speaker 1>of Thailand, asking the two parties to agree on immediate ceasefire,

66
00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:10.080
<v Speaker 1>and failure to do so, according to Trump, US will

67
00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:13.759
<v Speaker 1>not make any business deal with both countries. In his words,

68
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:18.399
<v Speaker 1>Trump said, we happen to be, by coincidence currently dealing

69
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:21.319
<v Speaker 1>on trade with both countries, but do not want to

70
00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:24.519
<v Speaker 1>make any deal with either country if they are fighting,

71
00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:27.680
<v Speaker 1>and I have told them so. The call with Thailand

72
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:31.319
<v Speaker 1>is being made momentarily. The call with Cambodia has ended,

73
00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:34.720
<v Speaker 1>but expect a call back regarding war stoppage and cease

74
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:38.319
<v Speaker 1>fire based on what Thailand has to say. I am

75
00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:42.160
<v Speaker 1>trying to simplify a complex situation. Many people are being

76
00:04:42.279 --> 00:04:45.199
<v Speaker 1>killed in this war, but it very much reminds me

77
00:04:45.279 --> 00:04:48.920
<v Speaker 1>of the conflict between Pakistan and India, which was brought

78
00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:52.759
<v Speaker 1>to a successful hault. The Lao government had on Friday

79
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:56.199
<v Speaker 1>reported that ten bombs were found having been fired into

80
00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:59.920
<v Speaker 1>civilian areas and affecting local residents in the Emerald Triang,

81
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:04.160
<v Speaker 1>a town in Lao that borders both Lao, Thailand and Cambodia.

82
00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:08.240
<v Speaker 1>A statement from the Lao People's Armed Forces on Saturday

83
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:12.759
<v Speaker 1>afternoon refuted earlier media reports claiming clashes between the Lao

84
00:05:12.759 --> 00:05:17.319
<v Speaker 1>People's Armed Forces and Cambodian armed personnel, describing the reports

85
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:21.600
<v Speaker 1>as untrue, denying the shelling in Lao. The Royal Thailand

86
00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:25.199
<v Speaker 1>Army in a statement on Saturday, said that the Royal

87
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:29.240
<v Speaker 1>Thai Army clarifies case of artillery shells landing in Laopidi

88
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:34.079
<v Speaker 1>art territory in Emerald Triangle area, confirms investigation found they

89
00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:38.519
<v Speaker 1>were not Thai forces ammunition. According to news reports, on

90
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:42.360
<v Speaker 1>the twenty fourth of July twenty twenty five, at approximately

91
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:46.480
<v Speaker 1>nine forty hours, ten artillery shells landed in the territory

92
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:50.879
<v Speaker 1>of the Lao People's Democratic Republic LAOPDR in the Emerald

93
00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:55.199
<v Speaker 1>Triangle area, which is the border junction between Thailand, Laos

94
00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:59.000
<v Speaker 1>and Cambodia, without clear confirmation as to which side the

95
00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:02.600
<v Speaker 1>shells belong to, and preliminarily there were no reports of

96
00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:07.800
<v Speaker 1>casualties or property damage from the incident. Major General Wintaisubari

97
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:13.879
<v Speaker 1>Army spokesperson issued a clarification that following fact finding investigations

98
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:17.040
<v Speaker 1>and co ordination with security agencies of the LAO p

99
00:06:17.240 --> 00:06:19.959
<v Speaker 1>d R, it is confirmed that they were definitely not

100
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:23.120
<v Speaker 1>shells from the Thai military side and the Royal Thai

101
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:29.839
<v Speaker 1>Army has confidence in its capability to control weapon usage effectively, appropriately, proportionately,

102
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:34.759
<v Speaker 1>and strictly within international rules of engagement. However, in the

103
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:38.199
<v Speaker 1>recent period, it has often been found that the Cambodian

104
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:41.959
<v Speaker 1>side has been using long range fire support weapons to

105
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:46.360
<v Speaker 1>attack numerous civilian targets throughout the past two days, which

106
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:49.480
<v Speaker 1>appears to be intentional and deliberate use of such weapons

107
00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:53.399
<v Speaker 1>against targets other than military objectives, such as using weapons

108
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:58.199
<v Speaker 1>against historical sites aiming to significantly mislead the international community

109
00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:02.279
<v Speaker 1>against the Thai side. Asia is apparently becoming a continent

110
00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:05.000
<v Speaker 1>of war as hope of achieving peace in the continent

111
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:08.680
<v Speaker 1>appeared slim since twenty twenty three, when fresh wars broke

112
00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:11.759
<v Speaker 1>out in the Middle East Asia after Hamas attacked Israel,

113
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:17.920
<v Speaker 1>forcing Israel to launch a multifront wars in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Iran,

114
00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:20.519
<v Speaker 1>and Yemen. This occurred as Russia, that has parts of

115
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:24.040
<v Speaker 1>its territory in Asia, had in twenty twenty two launched

116
00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:28.959
<v Speaker 1>a full scale war against its neighbouring European country Ukraine,

117
00:07:28.959 --> 00:07:31.959
<v Speaker 1>which The multiple wars have led to millions of deaths,

118
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:34.959
<v Speaker 1>with many in the world expecting an end soon. But

119
00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:37.959
<v Speaker 1>while many in the world hoped for permanent end to

120
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:41.079
<v Speaker 1>the deadly wars, another fresh war broke out during the

121
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:44.920
<v Speaker 1>week on Thursday in the Southeast Asia between Cambodia and

122
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Thailand after soldiers from Royal Thai Army of fourteenth Infantry

123
00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:53.199
<v Speaker 1>Battalion on Wednesday stepped on a land mine at Huaiban

124
00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:58.360
<v Speaker 1>Chongen Ma nam Yuen District, Uban Ratchathani Province within the

125
00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Thai Cambodia border area, causing severe injury to one Thailand soldier,

126
00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:07.600
<v Speaker 1>while four other soldiers sustained some level of injuries, making

127
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.759
<v Speaker 1>the acting Prime Minister of Thailand Funthom Wechii to recall

128
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:16.279
<v Speaker 1>the country's ambassador from PanAm Pen and expelled Cambodia's ambassador

129
00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:20.839
<v Speaker 1>to Thailand, leading to heavy military confrontations starting next day morning,

130
00:08:21.160 --> 00:08:25.439
<v Speaker 1>which Cambodian news agency on Saturday reported the tens of

131
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:31.000
<v Speaker 1>thousands of innocent Cambodians, including children, pregnant women and the elderly,

132
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:33.879
<v Speaker 1>have been forced to flee the military aggression along the

133
00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:38.919
<v Speaker 1>border areas including Pria, Vihir, Odaminchi and Persit, and The

134
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Royal Thai Army also on Saturday released a video of

135
00:08:42.480 --> 00:08:45.399
<v Speaker 1>its men hoisting the Thai flag at a location and

136
00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:49.000
<v Speaker 1>stated that the Thai national flag was raised atop Fu

137
00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Maquaa following Thai military operations to assault and seize the

138
00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:56.799
<v Speaker 1>Fu Maquaa area, where it said the Cambodian forces had

139
00:08:56.799 --> 00:09:00.639
<v Speaker 1>been heavily positioned, adding that the area was successfully captured

140
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:03.919
<v Speaker 1>during the evening of war on Friday. While the Prime

141
00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:08.399
<v Speaker 1>Minister of Thailand, Piton Tan Shinawat, who is currently on suspension,

142
00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:12.080
<v Speaker 1>blamed the cause of the war on alleged powerful criminals

143
00:09:12.120 --> 00:09:16.200
<v Speaker 1>in Cambodia, saying the conflict stems from the Thai government's

144
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:20.120
<v Speaker 1>efforts to crack down on call center crimes, dismantling a

145
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:26.600
<v Speaker 1>network of immense financial interests linked to influential groups in Cambodia. Notwithstanding,

146
00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:31.360
<v Speaker 1>the Prime Minister of Cambodia, Sandek Mohaborva Thapadai han Mane,

147
00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:35.559
<v Speaker 1>in a statement called on Cambodians not to attack businesses

148
00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:39.679
<v Speaker 1>and citizens of Thailand living in Cambodia, adding that after

149
00:09:39.759 --> 00:09:42.759
<v Speaker 1>the Prime Minister of Malaysia and the rotating Chairman of

150
00:09:42.799 --> 00:09:46.240
<v Speaker 1>Azian and Wha Ibrahim intervened in the matter on Thursday,

151
00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:49.440
