WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:04.080 Ahead of the United Nations UN General Assembly slated for 2 00:00:04.120 --> 00:00:08.800 September twenty twenty five. The President of France, A Manual Macron, 3 00:00:08.839 --> 00:00:11.919 on Thursday issued a statement and said that France will 4 00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:15.560 recognize the State of Palestine at the U ncoming Meeting 5 00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:17.800 of Heads of States as a way to put an 6 00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:20.399 end to the war in Gaza so that the civilian 7 00:00:20.440 --> 00:00:24.920 populations in the Palestinian city can be rescued, also describing 8 00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:28.359 the move as france historical commitment to adjust and lasting 9 00:00:28.399 --> 00:00:32.119 peace in the Middle East. This the Prime Minister of Israel, 10 00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:36.159 Benjamin Natanyahoo, within an hour issued a counterpress statement and 11 00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:38.960 said that the State of Israel condemned the decision of 12 00:00:39.039 --> 00:00:43.280 France President to recognize the State of Palestine, stressing that 13 00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:46.880 such move by France rewards terror and risks creating another 14 00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:50.359 Iran proxy that will be a launch pad to annihilate Israel. 15 00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:55.000 According to the President of France, A Manual Macron, true 16 00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:57.880 to its historic commitment to a just and lasting peace 17 00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:00.719 in the Middle East, I have decided that France will 18 00:01:00.759 --> 00:01:04.400 recognize the State of Palestine. I will make the solemn 19 00:01:04.439 --> 00:01:09.079 announcement of the United Nations General Assembly next September the 20 00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:12.000 urgency is today. For the war in Gaza to end 21 00:01:12.040 --> 00:01:16.200 and the civilian population to be rescued, peace is possible. 22 00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:19.799 There is an immediate cease fire, the release of all hostages, 23 00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:23.480 and massive humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza. We 24 00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:27.480 must also guarantee the demilitarization of har mass secure and 25 00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:31.480 rebuild Gaza. At last, it is necessary to build the 26 00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:35.200 state of Palestine, ensure its viability, and allow that by 27 00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:39.959 accepting its demilitarization and fully acknowledging Israel, it participates in 28 00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:43.079 the safety of everyone in the Middle East. There is 29 00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:46.480 no alternative. The French want peace in the Middle East. 30 00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:50.239 It is up to us, the French, together with Israelis, 31 00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:54.920 the Palestinians, our European and international partners, to demonstrate that 32 00:01:54.959 --> 00:01:57.959 it is possible. In light of the commitments that the 33 00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:01.560 President of the Palestinian Authority made to me, I wrote 34 00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:06.439 to him my determination to move forward, trust, clarity and commitment. 35 00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:10.360 We will win peace, the French president stated. In a 36 00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:15.159 swift reaction, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reacted and said we 37 00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:19.479 strongly condemned President Macron's decision to recognize a Palestinian state 38 00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:22.000 next to Tel Aviv in the wake of the October 39 00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:26.319 seventh massacre. Such a move rewards terror and risks creating 40 00:02:26.360 --> 00:02:31.319 another Iranian proxy, just as Gaza became. A Palestinian state 41 00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:34.759 in these conditions, would be a launch pad to annihilate Israel, 42 00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:38.479 not to live in peace beside it. Let's be clear, 43 00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:42.479 the Palestinians do not seek a state alongside Israel. They 44 00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:46.319 seek a state instead of Israel. Meanwhile, it would be 45 00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:49.439 recalled that Daily Sabin Used media on May twenty eighth, 46 00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:54.759 twenty twenty five, reported that Indonesian President Probobo Subianto said 47 00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:57.919 he would consider diplomatic ties with Israel only if it 48 00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:02.479 recognized a Palestinian state, speaking during talks with French President 49 00:03:02.479 --> 00:03:07.840 Emmanuel Macron in Jakarta. Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim 50 00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:11.439 majority nation, has no formal ties with Israel and has 51 00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:14.759 consistently called for a two state solution to the decades 52 00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:19.479 long conflict. On various occasions, I have said that Indonesia 53 00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:22.719 sees the two state solution and the freedom of Palestine 54 00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:25.360 is the only way to achieve the true piece, he 55 00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:29.319 told a news conference. I also emphasized that we must 56 00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.879 acknowledge and guarantee Israel's writes as a sovereign country that 57 00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:37.759 must be paid attention to unguaranteed safety. Indonesia has stated 58 00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:42.439 that once Israel recognizes Palestine, Indonesia is ready to recognize 59 00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:46.680 Israel and open the diplomatic relationship. In a joint statement, 60 00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:51.879 France and Indonesia called for progress on mutual recognition between 61 00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:55.639 Israel and the Palestinians at an international conference meant to 62 00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:59.039 resurrect the idea of a two state solution next month 63 00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:03.280 June twenty two, twenty five, which Paris will co chair. 64 00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:07.120 The conference should restore a political prospect of a peaceful 65 00:04:07.159 --> 00:04:10.520 settlement of this conflict, which should allow for an irreversible 66 00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:14.680 path toward the realization of a Palestinian state and mutual 67 00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:19.600 recognition between Israel and Palestine. They said support for the 68 00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:23.399 Palestinian cause runs high in Indonesia and the issue regularly 69 00:04:23.439 --> 00:04:28.600 prompts protests. In twenty twenty three, FIFA stripped Indonesia as 70 00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:32.279 the Under twenty World Cup hosts after some prominent politicians 71 00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:34.839 called for Israel to be kicked out of the tournament 72 00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:38.319 and refused to host its team. On the other hand, 73 00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:41.800 Al Jazeera on the eighteenth of July twenty twenty four 74 00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:46.240 reported that Israel's parliament has passed a resolution that overwhelmingly 75 00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:50.839 rejected the establishment of a Palestinian state. Israeli media reported 76 00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:54.879 the resolution passed in the Kanessid with sixty eight votes 77 00:04:54.920 --> 00:04:57.920 in favour and just nine against it early on Thursday. 78 00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:02.279 It said that a Palestinian state would pose an existential 79 00:05:02.360 --> 00:05:05.800 danger to the State of Israel and its citizens, perpetuate 80 00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:10.720 the Israeli Palestinian conflict, and destabilize the region. Prime Minister 81 00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:14.800 Benjamin Letten, Yahoo's coalition with far right parties co sponsored 82 00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:19.720 the resolution. Opposition leader Yell Lapid center left party left 83 00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:23.759 the session to avoid supporting the statement, despite previously saying 84 00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:26.959 he favored a two state solution. The Times of Israel 85 00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:32.480 newspaper reported Mustafa Barghuti, the secretary general of the Palestinian 86 00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:37.399 National Initiative, slammed the passing of the resolution. No Zionist 87 00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:40.680 party from both the government and the opposition voted against 88 00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:45.120 the resolution. He wrote on x this resolution represents a 89 00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:48.839 rejection of peace with Palestinians and an official declaration of 90 00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:54.120 the death of the Oslo Agreement. Barguti posted the Oslo Accords, 91 00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:57.759 which were first signed between Palestinian and Israeli leaders in 92 00:05:57.839 --> 00:06:01.639 nineteen ninety three called for a Bible and sovereign Palestinian 93 00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:05.360 state living side by side with an Israeli state, but 94 00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:09.199 Israel has continued to adopt policies such as building illegal 95 00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:13.079 settlements on Palestinian lands across the occupied West Bank and 96 00:06:13.160 --> 00:06:18.439 a complete blockade of Gaza. Palestinian Authority official Husain al 97 00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:22.600 Shaik condemned the resolution on social media, saying the Knesset's 98 00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:26.439 rejection confirms the racism of the occupying state and its 99 00:06:26.439 --> 00:06:31.240 disregard for international law and international legitimacy, and its insistence 100 00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:34.759 on the approach and policy of perpetuating the occupation forever. 101 00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:39.360 Jordan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the resolution's approval was 102 00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:45.079 a dangerous violation of international law. Israel's continued efforts to 103 00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:49.079 deny the Palestinian's analienable right to their independent and sovereign 104 00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:52.680 state along the lines of June fourth, nineteen sixty seven, 105 00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:56.800 with occupied Jerusalem as its capital does not bring security 106 00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:59.519 and peace in the region, read a statement citing the 107 00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:03.399 Ministry the spokesperson Sufi and al Kuda. The Times of 108 00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:06.759 Israel quoted the resolution as saying it will only be 109 00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:09.519 a matter of a short time until Hamas takes over 110 00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:12.879 the Palestinian state and turns it into a radical Islamic 111 00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:16.800 terror base, working in coordination with the Iranian led access 112 00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:20.000 to eliminate the state of Israel. It added that a 113 00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:23.240 Palestinian state at this time would be a reward for 114 00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:26.319 terrorism and will only encourage Hamas and its supporters to 115 00:07:26.360 --> 00:07:29.240 see this as a victory, referring to the Hamas led 116 00:07:29.279 --> 00:07:32.480 attacks on October seventh in southern Israel that triggered the 117 00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:37.360 current conflict. The decision, however, is not new for the Kanessid, 118 00:07:37.439 --> 00:07:42.000 which has previously rejected Palestinian statehood. A growing number of 119 00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:48.560 countries have recognized Palestinian statehood, including Spain, Slovenia, Norway, Ireland 120 00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:52.879 and others. The resolution comes as Netanyahoo is expected to 121 00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:56.759 address the United States Congress next week in Washington, d C, 122 00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:00.680 which has caused divisions among Democratic parties all makers who 123 00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:05.199 have spoken out against Israel's conduct in its war on Gaza. 124 00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:10.079 On Wednesday, United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterras said that 125 00:08:10.199 --> 00:08:13.680 Israel's policy in the occupied West Bank was dooming any 126 00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:18.560 prospect of a two state solution. Through administrative and legal steps, 127 00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:22.600 Israel is changing the geography of the West Bank, Guterras 128 00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:25.040 said in a statement read by his Chief of Staff, 129 00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:29.160 Courtney Ratre, during a meeting of the UN Security Council. 130 00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:33.000 Recent developments are driving a stake through the heart of 131 00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:36.919 any prospect for a two state solution. He said, we 132 00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:41.720 must change course. All settlement activity must cease immediately. The 133 00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:45.039 UN chief added that the settlements were a flagrant violation 134 00:08:45.159 --> 00:08:48.840 of international law and an obstacle to peace with Palestinians. 135 00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:54.840 Lady Gwindi Guinimo. 136 00:08:56.120 --> 00:09:00.519 Clear Water Police Department in Florida, United States, has confirmed 137 00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:04.799 the world wrestling champion Terry Bonny aka Hulk Hogan, died 138 00:09:04.840 --> 00:09:08.759 on Thursday morning around eleven seventeen am after the personnel 139 00:09:08.879 --> 00:09:12.519 of the Clearwater City Fire and Police Departments responded to 140 00:09:12.600 --> 00:09:16.200 an emergency medical report at about nine fifty one am 141 00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:19.759 and administered first aid treatment of cardiac arrest to Hulk 142 00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:23.159 Hogan before he was rushed to Morton Plant Hospital, where 143 00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:27.279 he was pronounced dead. According to the Clearwater Police Department 144 00:09:27.399 --> 00:09:30.320 in a video press briefing held a few hours ago, 145 00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:35.519 the Clearwater Fire Department and Clearwater Police Department personnel responded 146 00:09:35.559 --> 00:09:38.600 to a medical call at nine fifty one am today 147 00:09:38.759 --> 00:09:42.480 in the one thousand block of Eldorado Avenue on Clearwater Beach. 148 00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:46.000 The nature of the call was for a cardiac arrest. 149 00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:50.559 A seventy one year old resident, Terry Bonny, also known 150 00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:54.320 as Hulk Hogan, was treated by Clearwater Fire and Rescue 151 00:09:54.360 --> 00:09:58.080 crews before being taken by SunStar to Morton Plant Hospital, 152 00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:02.440 where he was pronounced deceased. Major Nate Burnside briefed the 153 00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:05.399 press about the police and fire response to a medical 154 00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:09.799 call involving Terry Bonny, also known as Hulk Hogan. A 155 00:10:09.919 --> 00:10:14.159 video of the scene outside Hogan's residence shows responders desperately 156 00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:16.840 trying to save his life as he was transported to 157 00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:21.039 an ambulance. In the clip, several paramedics appear to be 158 00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:25.159 conducting chest compressions as Hogan is wheeled to the emergency vehicle. 159 00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:29.960 It may be recalled that a few weeks ago, Hogan's wife, Sky, 160 00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:34.159 whom he married in September twenty twenty three, denied rumors 161 00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:37.240 he was in a coma, stating his heart was strong 162 00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:41.360 as he recovered from surgeries. Some local media in the 163 00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:44.600 United States had reported last month that Hogan was on 164 00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:48.200 his deathbed, but the reports were denied with statements that 165 00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:50.240 as at the time, he was just dealing with the 166 00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:53.919 symptoms of a neck procedure he underwent in May twenty 167 00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:59.440 twenty five. The global sports HiCon Hulk Hogan undoubtedly transformed 168 00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:04.919 professional wrestling into a family entertainment. Sports Before Hulk wrestling 169 00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:08.720 catered to a fairly narrow audience. Hulk's theatrics in the 170 00:11:08.799 --> 00:11:11.799 ring were magnetic for children and their parents, and it 171 00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:16.559 supercharged the sport. Hogan kickstarted a pop culture phenomenon with 172 00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:20.919 Hulkamannia after defeating the Iron Shake for the World Heavyweight 173 00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:25.000 Championship in nineteen eighty four, a craze that never went away, 174 00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:29.039 and his signature bandana and handlebar mustache were often copied 175 00:11:29.039 --> 00:11:33.159 by fans in crowds for decades. In nineteen ninety six, 176 00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:38.600 Hulk created the nWo New World Order and became Hollywood 177 00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:42.720 Hulk Hogan. It propelled him in professional resting to even 178 00:11:42.759 --> 00:11:46.960 more fame. Hogan had countless iconic performance which included a 179 00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:51.080 match up against Dwayne the Rock Johnson and WrestleMania X 180 00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:53.639 eight in two thousand and two, and a face off 181 00:11:53.679 --> 00:11:56.799 with Andre the Giant at w M three, and had 182 00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:01.159 memorable feuds with Ultimate Warrior and Randy Savage. Hulk was 183 00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:04.200 inducted into the w w E Hall of Fame in 184 00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:08.159 two thousand and five. He was removed in twenty fifteen 185 00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:11.600 after a scandal erupted over Racist's comments while he was 186 00:12:11.639 --> 00:12:16.240 being secretly recorded during a sexual encounter.
