I didn't 27 00:01:43.799 --> 00:01:46.640 even know that was a thing, although I didn't see 28 00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:51.400 very many elections signs either way this time like in 29 00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:55.400 past elections.

So that was fun. 34 00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:10.319 Here's what's ahead on wake Up Call. 35 00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:13.719 A death certificate that has been made public says legendary 36 00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:18.319 Dodger pitcher Fernando Valenzuela died from septic shock. The document, 37 00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:22.240 obtained by TMC says two forms of cirrhosis contributed to 38 00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:26.159 his death on October twenty second. The document also indicated 39 00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:30.159 Valenzuela may have suffered from a rare brain disease. Fernando 40 00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:35.039 Valenzuela died just days before his sixty fourth birthday. Firefighters 41 00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:37.960 continue to gain ground in their battle against the wildfire 42 00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:40.479 that has burned more than twenty thousand acres in Camerio 43 00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:43.879 Moore Park and Somas. The fire is now fifty four 44 00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:47.319 percent surrounded. More than two hundred homes and other buildings 45 00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:50.159 burned to the ground. And the Santa Ana wind whipped fire. 46 00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:53.560 President Biden and President elect Trump will be sitting down 47 00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:56.639 together at the White House to talk policy as one 48 00:02:56.680 --> 00:03:00.599 prepares to take office the other prepares to leave. First, 49 00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:03.360 Lady Jill Biden invited Milania Trump to have tea at 50 00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:07.400 the White House, but Milania declined. We're planning to talk 51 00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:10.479 to Karen Travers about that in just a couple of minutes. 52 00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:12.719 But I gotta let you in on a little inside baseball. 53 00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:16.520 Our technical producer Cono, he blew out a tire on 54 00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:18.719 the way into the station, So right now it's. 55 00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:23.000 Technical producer producer an. She's doing a great job. 56 00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:25.080 So we'll see if we can keep the wheels on 57 00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:27.000 the bus and get everything to you this morning. But 58 00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:28.800 let's get started with some of the stories coming out 59 00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:32.159 of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. A fight has 60 00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:34.919 led to a shooting inside a Ralph's grocery store in 61 00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:37.719 Sun Valley. One person was killed last night. At least 62 00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:41.039 one other person is in the hospital. Police say the 63 00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:45.879 shooting may have been in self defense. Several people charged 64 00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:49.319 in connection with a pro Palestinian protests at uc Irvine 65 00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:52.639 are doing court in Santa Anna. The protesters were arrested 66 00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:56.120 in May when they surrounded the school's physical sciences lecture hall. 67 00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:59.680 The Council on American Islamic Relations and other activists are 68 00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:03.479 demanding prosecutors dropped the charges against fifty people arrested in 69 00:04:03.479 --> 00:04:06.400 the crackdown. They say the university and the Orange County 70 00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:11.439 DA's office share a history of silencing Palestinian voices. President 71 00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:13.960 elect Trump continues to roll out his choices for his 72 00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:17.759 foreign policy team. He tapped former Director of National Intelligence 73 00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:21.800 John Ratcliffe to lead the CIA, Arkansas Governor Mike Hoppet 74 00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:26.319 Huckabee as the US Ambassador to Israel, and Stephen Whitcoff 75 00:04:26.439 --> 00:04:30.040 to be a Special and Envoy to the Middle East. 76 00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:33.959 Trump also named Bill McGinley his Cabinet secretary in his 77 00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:38.120 first administration, at his as his White House counsel. President 78 00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:42.160 elect Trump's surprise defense officials by nominating Fox News host 79 00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:46.879 and Army veteran Pete Hegseth to serve as his defense secretary. 80 00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:51.519 ABC's John Santucci says Hegseeth is an Army National Guard captain. 81 00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:56.040 He is a combat veteran had multiple tours in Guantanamo Bay, Iraq, 82 00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:59.279 and Afghanistan, according to the Trump team, and received two 83 00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:00.680 Bronze Stars ours for his. 84 00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:04.079 Service, but he says Hegseth has never had such a 85 00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:08.040 leadership role and no government experience. Special Counsel Jack Smith 86 00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:10.360 and his team apparently planned to resign before President ele 87 00:05:10.360 --> 00:05:13.879 Like Trump takes office. Smith's office has been working on 88 00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:17.000 how to wind down its criminal cases against Trump because 89 00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:19.920 of the Justices Department position that it cannot charge a 90 00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:23.519 sitting president with a crime. Newsweek says Smith's office has 91 00:05:23.519 --> 00:05:27.920 spent at least fifty million dollars prosecuting Trump. Okay, we're 92 00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:29.519 going to try this. Are we going to be able 93 00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:32.879 to talk to Nick and get a first look at traffic? 94 00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:36.600 Got to ask technical producer, producer in you think we 95 00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:41.120 can do it?

I don't know if you can hear 116 00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:48.720 us talking about it. We were having like. 117 00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:50.680 A exciting anticipation to get on. 118 00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:53.120 I was very I know, She's like, just get me on, 119 00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:56.319 get me on the air. Okay, so great, let's let's go. 120 00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:58.639 Then the President and the next president have a sit 121 00:06:58.680 --> 00:06:59.879 down today at the White House. 122 00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:00.639 Tell us about it. 123 00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:03.399 Due eleven o'clock our time, they will sit down in 124 00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:06.079 the Oval Office, and you know it's going to be 125 00:07:06.519 --> 00:07:08.720 a highly anticipated meaning of course, we're going to be 126 00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.920 looking at for you know, all of the body language, 127 00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:14.560 what they say, how long the reporters are able to 128 00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:16.959 stay in the Oval office, do they take some questions. 129 00:07:16.959 --> 00:07:19.600 We'll see, But the White House says, you know that 130 00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:23.240 this is a chance for Americans to see an important 131 00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:25.839 part of the process when they talk about a peaceful 132 00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:29.759 transfer of power. Karine Jean Pierre said that the President 133 00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.480 will show in this meeting he cares about democracy and 134 00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:34.560 that he wants to show that the system works, that 135 00:07:34.600 --> 00:07:38.879 people should trust institutions and trust that norms do matter here, 136 00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:41.079 and that this is going to be an effective and 137 00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:44.079 smooth transition. They're very much sending a message, you know, 138 00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:47.160 to the American people that they're doing things differently than 139 00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:49.879 what happened four years ago when President Biden did not 140 00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:53.800 get an invitation like this. As President elect from the 141 00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:56.800 Trump administration, they want to do this differently. They want 142 00:07:56.839 --> 00:07:59.319 to show people that they are trying to set the 143 00:07:59.360 --> 00:08:02.160 next team up to hit the ground running and be successful. 144 00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:05.240 I went back and looked at twenty sixteen when President 145 00:08:05.319 --> 00:08:08.519 Obama invited then President elect Trump to the White House, 146 00:08:08.759 --> 00:08:10.800 and he said something like, you know, we want you 147 00:08:10.839 --> 00:08:15.199 to succeed because you your success is the country's success. 148 00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:17.160 And I think we're going to hear a similar sentiment 149 00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:18.480 today from Joe Biden. 150 00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:22.000 Okay, I hope so, I hope so and so, and 151 00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:25.439 I was sorry. I was yelling towards the ridge to 152 00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:27.120 see if we can get the traffic guy onmins just 153 00:08:27.240 --> 00:08:30.160 a second. Things are a little wonky here today. Did 154 00:08:30.199 --> 00:08:34.279 you say in twenty twenty, we know that obviously things 155 00:08:34.279 --> 00:08:39.840 were very tense. So in twenty twenty the Biden Trump 156 00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:41.960 meeting did happen or didn't they not? 157 00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:44.080 There was no meeting like this. I mean you think 158 00:08:44.120 --> 00:08:46.399 back of like where we were exactly four years ago. 159 00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:50.639 Donald Trump was questioning the election results. He was challenging 160 00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:54.120 in court the election results, so he was not ready 161 00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:57.519 to extend an invitation to President elect Joe Biden. And 162 00:08:57.679 --> 00:09:00.600 obviously he didn't even go to the inauguration. That whole 163 00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:04.320 transition period was not what we have seen in the 164 00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:07.080 past and very much out of the norm. 165 00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:10.360 Okay, and then First Lady Jill also invited Malania Trump 166 00:09:10.600 --> 00:09:12.960 to come have tea, but Malania said no, thank you. 167 00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.159 We know from the First Lady's office that an invitation 168 00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:18.200 was extended for her to come up to have a 169 00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:21.080 meeting in the White House. Sources in Florida close to 170 00:09:21.120 --> 00:09:23.120 the first lady tell us that she is not going 171 00:09:23.159 --> 00:09:25.039 to be making a trip today. We didn't see her 172 00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:29.120 on the plane leaving Florida as we saw the President 173 00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:31.879 elect leaving mar A Lago and coming up here. But 174 00:09:32.279 --> 00:09:34.080 they did not give a reason as to why she 175 00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:35.039 was not making the trip. 176 00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:35.679 Okay. 177 00:09:35.759 --> 00:09:38.399 So then after the meeting today, which is hopefully going 178 00:09:38.440 --> 00:09:41.559 to be a nice cordial here's what we've done. 179 00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:43.320 Here's what we're handing over to you. 180 00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:48.039 Are there other meetings between the president and the President 181 00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:49.679 elect before election day? 182 00:09:49.720 --> 00:09:51.159 Or is a suit? This is it? 183 00:09:51.399 --> 00:09:54.120 This will be it. I mean, there's nothing on the schedule. 184 00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:58.440 I don't anticipate anything being added. The next time would 185 00:09:58.480 --> 00:09:59.960 likely be on inauguration. 186 00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:02.559 Okay, and we'll be talking to you leading up to that. 187 00:10:02.639 --> 00:10:05.759 Karen Trivers, thanks for being patient with us today and 188 00:10:06.120 --> 00:10:07.159 thanks for coming on with us. 189 00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:08.799 No problem, all right, we'll talk to you soon. 190 00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:11.159 Let's get back to some of the stories coming out 191 00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:14.360 of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. A former La 192 00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:17.840 School District middle school teacher is pleaded not guilty to 193 00:10:17.919 --> 00:10:20.840 charges of having sex with a teenage boy who was 194 00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:23.840 one of her students. Prosecutors say the ex teacher at 195 00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:27.000 John Burrow's Middle School in Hancock Park had sex with 196 00:10:27.080 --> 00:10:30.559 the boy in her car and gave him cannabis. If 197 00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:33.279 she posts bonded, she'll have to wear a GPS tracker, 198 00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:38.279 but for now remains in jail. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory 199 00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:41.399 in Pasadenas expected to lay off about three hundred twenty 200 00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:45.200 five workers. JPL director Lori Leshen sent a memo to 201 00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:47.759 staff yesterday saying the decision was made in an effort 202 00:10:47.840 --> 00:10:51.480 to address what she called the dynamic funding environment for 203 00:10:51.559 --> 00:10:55.360 the Space Agency, which means they need money. All employees 204 00:10:55.399 --> 00:10:57.639 were told to work from home today and that the 205 00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:00.440 number of planned layoffs is lower than per acted a 206 00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:03.679 few months ago. The job cuts about effect about five 207 00:11:03.720 --> 00:11:07.360 percent of the workforce. The fired FEMA worker accused of 208 00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:10.799 telling staff to skip hurricane damaged homes that had Trump 209 00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:14.159 signs on them, claims it didn't just happen in Florida. 210 00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:16.679 She says she was just following FEMA protocol. 211 00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:18.200 This is not isolated. 212 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:21.360 This is a colossal event of avoidance, not just in 213 00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:24.759 the state of Florida, but you will find avoidance in 214 00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:31.000 the Carolinas. Former FEMA supervisor Maren Marnie Washington told the 215 00:11:31.080 --> 00:11:35.000 Roland Martin Unfiltered newscast that she is being made a scapegoat. 216 00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:39.080 The former Massachusetts Air National Guard member who leaked classified 217 00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:42.960 information to friends in an online video game forum has 218 00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:46.399 been sentenced to fifteen years in prison. Jack to Chera 219 00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:49.480 pleaded guilty in March to six counts of transmitting national 220 00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:52.600 defense information and violating the Espionage Act. 221 00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:57.039 His actions compromise military plans, sources, and methods, and allowed 222 00:11:57.039 --> 00:12:00.320 our most significant adversaries access to some of our most 223 00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:01.919 closely guarded intelligence. 224 00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:07.440 FBI Special Agent in Charge Jody Cohen called to share 225 00:12:07.440 --> 00:12:10.480 a one of the most prolific leakers of classified information 226 00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:14.000 in American history. An explosion at a factory in Kentucky 227 00:12:14.080 --> 00:12:17.440 has killed two employees. Nearly a dozen people were hurt 228 00:12:17.480 --> 00:12:20.120 in the explosion yesterday at the plant known for producing 229 00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:24.440 color in soft drinks. Surgeon Jason Smith at the University 230 00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:27.559 of Louisville Hospital says they treated a range of injuries. 231 00:12:27.679 --> 00:12:29.840 There were a fair amount of burn injuries, a pretty 232 00:12:29.879 --> 00:12:33.519 significant amount of blast injuries as well from the penetrating 233 00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:36.600 and blunt injuries from the force of the explosion. As 234 00:12:36.600 --> 00:12:39.120 well as some crush injury for some debris had fallen 235 00:12:39.159 --> 00:12:39.600 on the paper. 236 00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:42.480 Some people had to be rescued. It's not yet known 237 00:12:42.519 --> 00:12:46.559 what chemicals were involved in the explosion. A pet squirrel 238 00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:49.799 named Peanut Yes You're familiar with Peanut by now taken 239 00:12:49.840 --> 00:12:52.360 from its owner and then euthanized in upstate New York, 240 00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:57.480 has tested negative for rabies. A raccoon, also taken in October, 241 00:12:57.960 --> 00:13:01.720 also euthanized and also to negative. When the New York 242 00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:04.679 Department of Environmental Conservation took the animals, the agency said 243 00:13:04.720 --> 00:13:08.080 it had received complaints that wildlife was being kept illegally 244 00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:11.639 and potentially unsafely. The man who had them says they 245 00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:15.960 were rescues in his animal sanctuary, and Peanut was very 246 00:13:15.960 --> 00:13:19.159 popular on social media. A Dodgers fan in LA says 247 00:13:19.159 --> 00:13:21.120 he was fired for calling in sick to be at 248 00:13:21.120 --> 00:13:24.639 the team's World Series victory parade. Somebody apparently saw him 249 00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:27.240 in the crowd Earlier this month. The fan posted on 250 00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:31.120 social media that they were fired for misconduct. The employer 251 00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:34.320 apparently had to shut down the store because there wasn't 252 00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:38.000 enough staff on the day of the parade. All eyes 253 00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:40.480 are going to be on Sofi Stadium when Joe Burrow 254 00:13:40.600 --> 00:13:44.600 and the Cincinnati Bengals visit Justin Herbert and the La 255 00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:48.320 Chargers this Sunday.

We do have a pair 263 00:14:08.879 --> 00:14:11.679 of tickets to give away between now and six o'clock. 264 00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:14.320 So keep it right here. Lots going on today, not 265 00:14:14.399 --> 00:14:18.399 only the chaos in the actual newsroom, but all around 266 00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:21.240 the world. Here's what we're following. La Mayor Bass and 267 00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:23.799 the city Attorney been working to speed up the release 268 00:14:23.840 --> 00:14:27.360 of a proposed sanctuary City ordinance to the city council. 269 00:14:27.799 --> 00:14:30.440 The City of La has prohibited the use of its 270 00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:34.559 resources from assisting federal immigration authorities in past years, but 271 00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:38.919 a sanctuary ordinance would formally codify these policies. Now that 272 00:14:39.240 --> 00:14:42.480 President Elect Trump has promised to start deporting illegal immigrants 273 00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:46.240 when he takes office. BFAA has barred US Airlines from 274 00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:49.840 flying to Haiti for thirty days after gangs shot and 275 00:14:49.960 --> 00:14:53.360 hit three planes. Bullets hit a Spirit Airlines plane on 276 00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:56.639 final approach into porta Prince Jet Blow and Americans said 277 00:14:56.639 --> 00:14:59.240 bullets also hit their planes as they left the airport. 278 00:14:59.759 --> 00:15:04.480 UNA has also suspended flights carrying humanitarian aid into the country. 279 00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:08.279 Santa Anna wind's been blowing through the Southland again. The 280 00:15:08.399 --> 00:15:11.080 National Weather Services Gusts up to fifty five miles per 281 00:15:11.080 --> 00:15:13.960 hour are expected in the canyons and passes today. The 282 00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:16.759 winds should die down tomorrow, but another Santa Anna wind 283 00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:21.919 event and potentially dangerous fire conditions are expected early next week. 284 00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:25.559 At six oh five, it's handle on the news. Bill's 285 00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:29.519 going to be talking about President elect Trump's visit to 286 00:15:29.639 --> 00:15:33.159 President Biden today. And now let's say good morning too, 287 00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:38.840 ABC's Geordanna Miller in Jerusalem. Good morning, Geordana, Hi am 288 00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:40.519 good to be with you. 289 00:15:40.039 --> 00:15:40.480 You too. 290 00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:45.000 Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin nat Yahoo's warned that Iran or 291 00:15:45.080 --> 00:15:48.120 has warned Iran against attacking Israel again. 292 00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:50.039 What is he saying? 293 00:15:51.960 --> 00:15:56.600 That's right? The Prime Minister put out ostensibly a video message, 294 00:15:56.639 --> 00:15:59.799 he said was to the Iranian people, where he said 295 00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:03.799 it's a shame that the regime is investing in a 296 00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:07.480 war against Israel that he said they can't win, instead 297 00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:10.840 of investing in Iran and its people and its education. 298 00:16:11.080 --> 00:16:13.960 And he said he hopes one day that Israelis and 299 00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:18.240 Iranians can together build a more prosperous region. But in 300 00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:22.679 this seemingly kind of innocent message or or you know, 301 00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:26.919 diplomatic message to the people of Iran was a threat 302 00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:31.879 in it. And he said that if Iran attacks Israel, 303 00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:38.960 then Iran's economy will pay a heavy price. And that was, 304 00:16:39.519 --> 00:16:42.000 you know, it has been widely interpreted here in Israel 305 00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:46.440 as a veiled threat. Then Nataniel would go after Iran's 306 00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:50.440 oil fields and its energy sector what it did not 307 00:16:51.039 --> 00:16:56.039 do in its in the last Israeli reprisal strike. So 308 00:16:56.440 --> 00:16:59.759 you know, that was a way of really warning the 309 00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:05.039 which you know, in really since President Trump's election, we 310 00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:09.000 have not we have not heard the Iranians make overt 311 00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:13.640 threats of a strike against against Israel. But you know 312 00:17:13.720 --> 00:17:18.079 everyone here had been waiting for that strike. And we'll 313 00:17:18.119 --> 00:17:23.519 have to see. Perhaps the Iranians are rethinking their options 314 00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:27.559 in the face of Trump's election, and there are some 315 00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:31.640 initial reports in air media at least that Iran may 316 00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:36.039 wait and try to talk with the Trump White House 317 00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:40.119 and hold off on attack and another strike on Israel, 318 00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:41.559 which is good news. 319 00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:46.079 Yeah, absolutely, anytime there's less missiles and rockets flying, it's. 320 00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:46.400 A good thing. 321 00:17:47.839 --> 00:17:53.000 So then moving into Gaza, we're hearing from several AID 322 00:17:53.079 --> 00:17:57.519 groups that conditions are worse than ever. And this is 323 00:17:58.319 --> 00:18:01.359 the thirty days after the SOUS said Hey, Israel, you've 324 00:18:01.359 --> 00:18:03.720 got to get more AID in there or you're you know, 325 00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:05.920 you're putting our relationship at risk. 326 00:18:05.720 --> 00:18:09.079 A little bit, right, I mean, the US threatened to 327 00:18:09.160 --> 00:18:13.920 kind of arms embargo if Israel didn't dramatically boost AID 328 00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:19.200 into the Gaza Strip, and Israel was given thirty days 329 00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:23.160 to do so. Now, on the ground, Israel opened a 330 00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:27.359 couple new crossings into the Gaza Strip, one in the north, 331 00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:32.599 one in the center, and they also took away some 332 00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:36.200 of the red tape with getting AID in and brought 333 00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:39.240 ape directly into some of the areas in the far 334 00:18:39.440 --> 00:18:43.359 north of the Gaza Strip where there's been intense intense 335 00:18:43.359 --> 00:18:46.440 combat for weeks now, places like Jabalia and bit Lahia 336 00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:51.799 and Beate Lahune. It's really not enough. We haven't seen 337 00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:54.359 a huge jump to the numbers that the United States 338 00:18:54.440 --> 00:18:57.200 wanted to see, which was around three hundred trucks. Instead 339 00:18:57.240 --> 00:19:01.160 there's maybe one hundred trucks getting in a day to 340 00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:06.119 northern Gaza. But nonetheless, it seems that the steps Israel 341 00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:08.720 took were enough to convince the White House not to 342 00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:13.240 impose and arms embargo. But the United Nations and a 343 00:19:13.240 --> 00:19:16.880 lot of the aid organizations say the situation there is 344 00:19:16.880 --> 00:19:21.359 still so incredibly dire and that Israel really needs to 345 00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:26.240 do more because there's people that are they're not there's 346 00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:30.799 not famine, but they are a step away from starvation, 347 00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:34.759 and there's a lot of food insecurity, people who simply 348 00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:38.400 can't access food. So the situation in northern Gaza is 349 00:19:38.440 --> 00:19:44.000 still very very dire, but not bad enough where the 350 00:19:44.119 --> 00:19:45.920 US is going to take action against Israel. 351 00:19:46.160 --> 00:19:47.000 Okay and Geordana. 352 00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:48.599 As far as the AID trucks, you said that like 353 00:19:48.599 --> 00:19:50.519 one hundred are getting in a day, but they need 354 00:19:50.519 --> 00:19:53.960 like three times that many at least are the trucks 355 00:19:54.039 --> 00:19:56.839 just are they lined up and waiting or do they 356 00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:59.680 just not even head that direction because they don't have 357 00:19:59.720 --> 00:20:03.160 clear to get those trucks in, you know what I'm. 358 00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:07.960 Saying, right, So the humanitarian aid issue is a very 359 00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:11.559 complicated one. I mean, first you have the issue of 360 00:20:12.240 --> 00:20:17.960 supply getting the trucks into the Gaza Strip, which has 361 00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:20.960 been a challenge when crossings have been closed or the 362 00:20:22.279 --> 00:20:26.079 checking process of trucks has taken too long, right because 363 00:20:26.119 --> 00:20:28.680 there's a checking each truck. But then on the other side, 364 00:20:28.680 --> 00:20:30.799 once they're in the Gaza Strip, there's a huge problem 365 00:20:30.799 --> 00:20:35.240 of distribution, safely distributing the aid, getting the aid into 366 00:20:35.240 --> 00:20:38.000 the hands of people who need it. And at this stage, 367 00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:41.319 after a year of war, it is a very dangerous 368 00:20:41.960 --> 00:20:46.680 route from a border into central Gaza and all the 369 00:20:46.680 --> 00:20:51.759 way up to the north, there's looters, there's hamas is 370 00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:54.720 taking control of some of the aid. They're siphoning it, 371 00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:59.599 they're putting it in tunnels, they're creating warehouses and you know, 372 00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:04.039 putting armed men around the warehouses. So they're siphoning off 373 00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:08.079 some of it. And then sometimes you know, the UN 374 00:21:08.240 --> 00:21:12.000 is having problems even staffing people to bring the aid 375 00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:15.839 through the Gaza Strip because it's so dangerous, because it's 376 00:21:15.839 --> 00:21:19.119 so dangerous, because it's so dangerous. So Israel did open 377 00:21:19.599 --> 00:21:23.799 two crossings that for AID to go directly into the north. 378 00:21:24.279 --> 00:21:28.920 But remember there's intense combat there, right, Israel's been you know, 379 00:21:29.079 --> 00:21:31.680 for almost a month, a little more than a month, 380 00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:37.599 Israel relaunched a major ground offensive against Hamas in northern Gaza. 381 00:21:37.799 --> 00:21:40.839 So it's dangerous there. Yeah, And so it is, it's 382 00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:42.119 a complicated picture. 383 00:21:42.319 --> 00:21:44.240 Yeah, and what you mentioned looters. 384 00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:48.680 Are the looters Hamas because you mentioned looters and Hamas 385 00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:52.000 or are the looters just desperate Palestinians trying to get food? 386 00:21:53.200 --> 00:21:56.880 I mean there's there's really both. I mean Hamas is certainly, 387 00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:00.119 you know, they're the ones that have the arms, so 388 00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:03.640 they're the most dangerous looters. But there's other militant groups 389 00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:07.119 like Palestinian Islamic Jihads that operates in the Gaza Strip. 390 00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:11.440 There's gangs. Remember there's no real police force now in 391 00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:16.799 the Gaza Strip, and mainly because the police were affiliated 392 00:22:16.839 --> 00:22:20.119 and run by Hamas, and so Israel targeted the police 393 00:22:20.240 --> 00:22:25.079 in their war. Right, So you know, it is it 394 00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:28.200 is a desperate situation. The people of Gaza have paid 395 00:22:28.240 --> 00:22:31.559 really the heaviest and most tragic price in this war. 396 00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:35.519 I mean they have been on the move for a year. 397 00:22:35.839 --> 00:22:39.160 There's nowhere that's really safe, and they can't get out. 398 00:22:39.480 --> 00:22:41.880 There's nowhere to go unless you're one of the quote 399 00:22:41.960 --> 00:22:46.880 unquote lucky gosins. Maybe you have another passport, very few do. 400 00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:51.599 Maybe someone's sick with cancer and you can after waiting 401 00:22:51.599 --> 00:22:54.480
