USA Supporting Israel

The Israel Hamas struggle which has now entered its fourth day well this robot video shows the size of Obliteration harvested across the Gaza Strip throughout the course of recent days Israel's Military professes to have hit a further 200 Hass Focuses in for the time being bombarding Israel has requested a complete bar of Gaza removing food water and supplies the UN Common liberties Boss says The Attack is unlawful under global regulation while the World Wellbeing Association is requiring the foundation of a compassionate Hallway well to address your inquiries I'm joined now by the BBC's Center East examiner Sebastian Asher and going along with us from Jerusalem as BBC reporter previously situated in Gaza John donison hi to you both and thank you to you both for going along with us today Sebastian let me start with you we have an inquiry from alimu jalo in Guinea and they say for what reason is the US supporting Israel with all the killing done in Gaza it's an entirely reasonable inquiry it's one that many individuals pose uh from one side of the planet to the other and I mean I think in this specific occasion right now the US is positively not the only one in that frame of mind of what Hamas has done in light of the monstrosities that have been completed right now it's being uh seen by most legislatures absolutely most western state run administrations to be straightforward a ton of Bedouin legislatures, etc all over the planet as a fear monger act that will change definitely as The Attack on Gaza develops yet a more extensive setting of that is the US has basically yes it gives uh tremendous monetary help to Israel it gives very nearly 4 billion bucks the majority of that goes in military equipment the vast majority of which comes from us organizations it vetos movements goals at the UN Security Gathering which reprimand Israel now the actual US as government's change basically has remained basically a similar position it sees itself and it attempts to introduce itself as a fair arbiter in the contention and basically complying with the possibility that a two-state arrangement is required under President trump it changed somewhat yet with President Biden it's returned to that yet according to the Palestinian viewpoint they accept that that isn't true yet it isn't impartial uh that it is basically so firmly aligned with Israel not as far as the help that it gives yet in addition I mean from a political perspective I mean the us as a majority rule government sees and I think most American residents see Israel as a the main working majority rules system like the US in the Center East they see it as a Power for good thus obviously there's a huge Jewish populace too uh in the US which has a major say in decisions and not very many lawmakers need to say anything that that conflicts with what they need to say so I mean I imagine that the US has somewhat um made a solid attempt to get an answer for the contention there have been a few incid I mean back in 2003 was the nearest for its come to the two-state arrangement talks have slowed down yet there is this sense and I believe it's a truly reasonable sense from the Palestinians as well as yet more generally that its finger is undeniably more weighted towards the Israeli side and the Palestinian side in spite of the way that it will censure some of Israel does and most as of late with the flow extreme right moderately extreme right Israeli government under under uh Benjamin Netanyahu there's been probably the most grounded analysis such a long ways from the US of an Israeli government yet right now that is all in hold right now the US would be 100 percent behind Israel Sebastian gratitude for that John let me pose you an inquiry put to us from Ditty Fenton and she expresses out loud whatever will it take for Hamas to quit attempting to demolish the entire of Israel what compromise uh would be enough how might harmony be accomplished without Shared understanding and regard for the two sides I don't figure it can and I imagine that is the reason uh there has been this obstinate clash now for a really long time and I think Gaza is significant on the grounds that until some kind of uh split the difference as you say can be reached with heras in Gaza you are never going to experience harmony in the Center East and I think at certain focuses over the course of the past many years when there keeps on being this discussion from Western nations the US England the EU uh of the the objective being a two-state arrangement uh yet Hamas on the grounds that such countless nations see Hamas as a psychological oppressor association who they're not ready to converse with not piece of the conversations it was consistently whimsical truly to imagine that there could be a two-state arrangement until Hamas were essential for that arrangement and they have not exactly recommended uh that they were prepared to acknowledge the presence of Israel uh as a state close by a potential future Palestinian State uh that has been new nuanced now and again throughout the long term yet basically Hamas says it needs uh the land uh between the Stream Jordan and the Ocean so all of what was generally Palestine it's fascinating what John said there Sebastian I need to get some information about this I've had a ton of messages about this from individuals the psychological militant association Hamas how can it be that news associations like the BBC like ITV like sky like various different associations don't utilize the term psychological militants while depicting Hamas assailants I believe it's uh I mean there are various reasons I consider one the reasons is that when you are communicating to a world crowd uh you need your discernments how you are will be are will be are managing the story not to look as though you are taking a specific side and calling a gathering a fear monger gathering will continuously look that way and individuals will constantly be requesting for this purpose or that cause that it's called psychological militant or that isn't called psychological oppressor so I so I think the BBC feels that the most ideal way that it can keep a feeling of of some type of objectivity of not looking fractional is to do that I think it becomes troublesome ult when there are acts abominations that are done I mean I think the way that is much of the time found around that by associations like the BBC is to talk about Demonstrations of Dread or to have the voices of individuals who are reviling it as psychological warfare yet not itself utilizing that term yet yes it goes under analysis I'm certain you and I John too I mean we have these conversations both expertly yet additionally by and by you know a lot of the time and according to the Palestinian viewpoint I mean again uh numerous Palestinians just would I mean I mean they would feel I believe assuming that we portrayed Hamas as a psychological militant gathering they would feel that that was it could be said a sort of all out resurrection to them I mean they see it as an obstruction development and they would see I think it as resembling the us yet we done being impartial if on the off chance that we took that let me pose you another inquiry Sebastian this is from maragold Robbins in France and maragold says the US and Europe shield Ukraine for what reason are they not guarding uh Palestine well I mean there's more Subtlety to that question isn't there I mean without getting profoundly into Ukraine I mean Ukraine was what was happening that unexpectedly emitted what we're referring to and what John was referring to there is what is happening among Israel and P yet has been happening for quite a long time and it has you realize it has moved in its equilibrium endlessly time again Ukraine you know was was basically toward the beginning plainly according to most viewpoints an intrusion by Russia that Ukraine was opposing and I believe that Lucidity at that point simplified it for legislatures to answer in like that while the issue between the Palestinians and the Israelis is one which is so implanted in such countless various stages that it's harder for legislatures to emerge with such a highly contrasting position yet I mean you can't repudiate the way that the European Association that the UK the US I mean these nations to offer monetary help to the Palestinians and have done I mean the US has been however again it blows hot and cold has been one of the fundamental allies monetarily of the UN an organizations which basically move the Palestinians along as much as uh that is accomplished both in Gaza and in involved West Bank so I mean I think with these things Ian it's an exceptionally exhausting response yet there is you know a lot of subtlety to this and I think we as columnists need to attempt to remain with that however much as could be expected as opposed to going with the primary purpose of a story at one specific second and attempt and remain as consistent with that as could really be expected and attempt to make you know a crowd of people uh care about that part of a story as opposed to quickly go one side or the other I don't have the foggiest idea John's opinion on that well it's intriguing I mean I uh covered uh two short Conflicts in Gaza when I was based there in 2012 and afterward I returned 2014 and something that struck me was um for instance the US gives a ton of the tactical help to Israel that causes such a large amount the annihilation in Gaza uh and simultaneously you know uh a ton of the EU England France And so on offers a ton of help to Israel in managing Hamas in Gaza however at that point it is additionally those equivalent nations who uh support Israel who are then paying endlessly time again for the Recon Development in Gaza and it was what was going on I guess that what there was a kind of example of each and every two three years there is one more conflict in Gaza and things will get modified and afterward things will get annihilated in the future and I think what Israel has said this time is they need to well the two sides truly Hamas has said they need a finish to the norm they need to change the dynamic and I think Israel currently in its reprisal feels that it believes should do likewise and change that the state of affairs in Support of its John gratitude for that Sebastian we had one more inquiry here from Damen Armstrong and Staffordshire uh saying why is supporting to military guide required and required by Israel a somewhat rich country against the Palestinians well I mean it's not just against the Palestinians I mean the the tactical help that is given to Israel is intended to safeguard it.
