welome to Crossroads folks there is a big debate right now over what’s going to happen with the US and Israel it’s possible the United States will not support Israel in the coming invasion of Rafa and this is going to be difficult for Biden really because he’s pushing for a peace deal between Israel and Hamas and people are pointing out well if he’s pushing for a peace deal between Israel Hamas why are they rejecting peace deals between Russia and Ukraine and of course when it gets to Israel and Hamas the situation may not be as simple as well while Secretary of State Anthony blinkin is urging Hamas to take the terms on the table uh with Israel Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is also raising concerns that a deal could lead to Hamas staying in power something they say cannot be allowed to happen basically and as Israel Israel prepares to expand the war into DFA which you might have seen in the recent news just this morning in fact and late last night uh they’re urging people to evacuate Rafa in preparation for this something the US government doesn’t seem to support the US government is allegedly putting a hold on ammunition supplies to Israel as this happens now AOS had the exclusive on this you might have seen it said that the Biden Administration last week put a hold on a shipment of us-made ammunition to Israel two Israeli officials told aios it said the Israeli officials said the ammunition shipment into Israel was stopped last week and says the white White House declined to comment the Pentagon and state department and Israeli Prime Minister’s office did not immediately respond to questions they up the last Wednesday’s last Wednesday US Secretary of State Anthony blinkin visited Israel and had a quote unquote tough conversation with Benjamin Netanyahu regarding a possible Israeli operation in Rafa the one now moving forward he notes this according to two sources who were briefed on the meeting they say that blinkin told Netanyahu during that meeting that quote a major military operation in Rafa would lead to the US publicly opposing it it would negatively impact us Israel relations now the difficult thing is it seems Israel is not really listening to the us on this they’re going to move forward with it and again they just gave the evacuation notice to Rafa now of course this is based on sources of AIO so we’ll see how this develops as things go forward times of Israel seem to to an extent refute some of the claims that the US is withholding ammunition from Israel though Times of Israel said a White House National Security spokesperson declines to confirm the report saying they don’t comment on individual cases however it says the spokesperson notes that the US has surged billions of dollars in security assistance to Israel since the oct October 7 attacks passed the largest ever supplemental apparation for emergency assistance to Israel letting the president coalition to defend Israel against Iranian attacks and will continue to do what is necessary they say to ensure Israel can defend itself from threats it faces but speaking to wet an Israeli official downplayed the axio report saying quote even now a continued series of Defense shipments are being sent from the US to Israel they say it’s possible that one shipment or another is delayed but the flow continues and we’re not aware of a policy decision to stop it the official ads now the problem with that is that there’s a lot of contradicting reports to be honest and the allegations of the United States to laying ammo shipments are consistent with concerns currently being raised by US Secretary of State Anthony blinkin uh blinkin actually recently spoke of the world economic forum and it was an event in Saudi Arabia and he explained the push for a peace deal they’re trying to get Israel and Hamas to come down to make an agreement and it doesn’t seem that either side is fully budging on it now he explained a limit in regards to this on us support in the ongoing War watch this the quickest way to bring this to an end is to get to a ceasefire and the release of hostages Hamas has before it a proposal that is extraordinarily extraordinarily generous uh on the part of Israel and In This Moment the only thing standing between the people of Gaza and a ceasefire is Hamas we can’t support a milit a major military operation in Rafa uh and we have not yet seen a plan that gives us confidence that civilians can be effectively protected now look at all this it seems that the Biden Administration really really wants to bring an end to the conflict and you know I saw many people mentioning especially in the comments on the show the hypocrisy with that because you know when Russia and Ukraine were talking about making a peace deal the allegation has been for a long time that the Biden administration had intervene and stop that from happening the question then is why are they taking a different stance between Israel and Hamas and a lot of people are pointing to well maybe it’s because the Democrats are divided over this and it’s frankly turning into a political disaster for them but regardless of what you think regardless of what why you think this might be happening they’re trying to get both sides to come to terms blinkin is also pointing to some concerns the US government has with the way Israel is handing the handling the war they’re not taking a hard stance on either side they’re defending Israel supporting it to an extent but they’re trying to play both sides and they suggesting the US is reaching its limit on supporting some of Israel’s planned operations again Rafa seems to be one of the red lines and linkoln is suggesting the United States cannot support Israel in these unless it can get a real plan of protecting civilians they have not yet gotten that plan they say as you Just sh saw in that video now the Biden administration’s been caught in a particularly difficult position with this it seems on again they’re trying to continue us support for Israel this has been a long-term US policy they’re not getting off of that but at the same time they’re trying to keep Israel restrained in its war with Hamas Israel is not really listening to the United States Benjamin Netanyahu uh continually basically signals that if the US isn’t with them they’ll do it alone and at the same time the US is also trying to conduct humanitarian missions in Gaza and the people in Gaza seem to be not be not be very happy about let’s put it that way well at the same time they’re trying to keep the conflict from spreading among other Muslim countries lincol notably has been traveling to Saudi Arabia as you just saw he’s been traveling to different countries in the region meeting with the leadership and we don’t know the full context of what said behind closed doors but it seems like he’s trying to re this in they’re trying to prevent this from spreading and even when it comes to Iran they’re trying to stop this war from turning into a battle between Israel and Iran directly now as blinkin noted a peace deal is on the table but take note of what blinkin also said at the end of that clip we just watched these are his exact words blinkin said we’ve said clearly and for some time now on Rafa that in the absence of a plan to ensure that civilians will not be harmed we can’t support a major military operation in Rafa we have not yet seen a plan that gives confid gives us confidence that civilians can effective can be effectively protected in other words blinkin is saying that’s a red line he’s suggesting that if Israel does in fact move forward with the invasion of Rafa they’re not going to have us support on that particular mission and of course that’s one of the big issues on the Israeli side as well this is where the US position amidst all this gets complicated we talking about this all after a quick word from our sponsor experts

back now while a peace deal is technically on the table for Israel and Hamas there are also some mixed signals as we’ve been mentioning it does not look like Israel is going to agree to any terms unless it means Hamas loses control in Gaza Reuters said that Benjamin Netanyahu the Israeli Prime Minister hardened his rejection of Hamas demands for an end to the Gaza war in exchange for the freeing of hostages they said hey we’ll let the people go but we stay in power essentially Benjamin Netanyahu says No Deal basically it says that he said on Sunday that would keep the Palestinian islamist group Hamas in power and pose a threat to Israel Netanyahu said Israel was willing to pause fighting in Gaza in order to secure the release of hostages still being held by Hamas belied to be more than 130 but he said but while Israel has shown willingness Hamas remains entrenched in its extreme positions first among them the demand to remove all our forces from the Gaza Strip end the war and leave Hamas in power and he said Israel cannot accept that he added Hamas would be able to achieve its promise of carrying out again and again and again its massacres rapes and kidnappings and know that in Cairo Hamas leaders held a second day of truce talks with Egyptian and Qatari met mediators with no apparent progress reported as the group maintained its demand that any agreement must end the war in Gaza Palestinian officials said so basically one of the big narratives for a long time is that as soon as Hamas releases the hostages the war comes to an end it seems that is no longer the case uh they were offered this as the terms of ending the war and Netanyahu is saying that no the terms have changed it now will not accept a Palestine or Gaza where Hamas remains in power because they say it’s a terrorist group and there’s going to be attack after attack they’ll never see the end of it they’re saying so the terms of truce have now changed uh it seems there can be no possibility that does not end with the annihilation of Hamas which is what they’re suggesting which is also going to make some very difficult things for the B administrations they try to push for this peace deal now the problem with Hamas is that they’re technically a democratically elected government the people voted for them but they’re also a terrorist organization they’ve shown they’re willing to use civilians as human Shields and civilian deaths are also ironically helping them in the global narrative war and this is of course the problem of having a terrorist group being one of the main fighters in a war terrorism by definition goes after civilians terrorism by definition doesn’t just go after combatants it will use civilians as human Shields it will try to fight a narrative battle and of course killing civilians as is now happening seems to be helping Hamas because when Israel kills them and then fuels the global narrative War now look with any Modern War there are always at least two main battles being fought there’s the physical War right the war of bullets as they would call it but there’s also the narrative War the war of words you know for the United States this has been a harsh lesson for a lot of our Wars uh in Vietnam for example the Viet Kong would have said that they fought two Wars they fought the War of bullets and they fought the War of words they say they lost the war of bullets America for example was judging success in the battle just by how many Viet Kong they were killing they were saying look at how we’re decimating the enemy look at how you know their forces are dwindling but of course for the Viet Kong they were fighting a two-front battle the second front was the war of words the second front was the protests on American college campuses as we’re seeing right now the second front was politicians of course backing that and saying that America was the you know the wrong the person in the wrong in that battle and because of that even though America won the war of of bullets won the fighting War they lost the war of words and because they lost the narrative War they lost the overall war and unfortunately we’ve seen this a couple times now we saw the same thing in Iraq we also saw the same thing in Afghanistan America won the war of of bullets we won the fighting War but we lost the narrative War for to a large extent at least now for Hamas they’re of course facing Annihilation which is the other side of it there is the possibility Israel will kill the group spiders and hunt down all of its leaders the question though is going to be whether that will actually bring an end to the terrorist organization Hamas or whether it prevent a future terror attack against Israel and you know the United States of course has seen similar lessons again we fought a 20year war in Afghanistan is another example America you know we pushed out the T we pushed out Al-Qaeda Al-Qaeda used to be in control of Afghanistan and then the battle turned against the Taliban which then you know filled the vacuum when Al-Qaeda was pushed out and then what happened desite more than 20 years of killing the Taliban as soon as the US pulled out its troops the Taliban immediately took over the country and now we’re seeing a Resurgence in Afghanistan of Isis as well a new terrorist group arguably worse than alqaeda and despite the entire force of the US military the most powerful military in the face of the Earth the US operations were not able to bring an end to the Taliban now despite taking out the group’s leaders despite F taking out their Fighters and so on as Israel is trying to do with Hamas right now and this is because it was an Insurgency it was a war of belief a narrative battle right alongside that whole war of bullets the fuel behind the war is and so was the war of ideas and in the end we saw the war of perception turned out to have been the real battle the United States lost the war of perception and that turned out to have been really what we should have been focusing more on apparently and this is also makes the Israel Hamas War so complicated it’s technically a religious war and it’s also a proxy war Iran is supporting Hamas behind the scenes it was known for years for example that Iran will you know pay the families of suicide attackers when they go against Israel and even if Hamas gets decimated it’s also having the effect of a global propaganda push that’s sparking a new global Resurgence of terrorist groups while also working as a key narrative battle notably that’s impacting not just Israel but the United States as well because we get grouped in with everything they do now this is also likely why blinkin was expressing concerns over Israel’s plans to expand its War into Rafa something again that they announced that they called for evacuations this morning in fact now Rafa is a city in the southern part of the Gaza Strip it’s also where around a million displaced Palestinians are seeking shelter now if we go by PBS it seems Israel is planning the attack on Rafa regardless of the peace deal again they signaled they’re going to do it this morning regardless of us trying to stop them from doing it uh they’re again calling for people to evacuate there’s only some places they can go but they’re saying that even if they have a peace deal they’re going to do it anyways here’s an official quote from his office obtained by PBS again Netanyahu said this the idea that we will stop the war before achieving all its goals is out of the question again this is Netanyahu according to a statement from his office obtained by PBS and he said we will enter Rafa and we will eliminate Hamas and not the battalions there with or without a deal to achieve the total Victory now look of course we’ll see what happens based on surface level reporting it does not seem this position has changed a Hamas delegation was in Cairo on Saturday’s Egyptian State media reported according to AP and they said that they saw noticeable progress in ceire talks for Gaza but it says Israel has not sent a delegation and a senior Israeli official downplayed prospects for a full end of the war while emphasizing the commitment to invading Rafa in other words even though they’re having a peace deal on the table it doesn’t seem that they’re fully in on it unless it’s some smoke in mirrors which might be the case as well AP notes that pressure has reach has mounted to reach a deal halting the nearly 7-month long War at top you an official says there is now a full-blown famine in Northern Gaza while the United States has repeatedly warned close Ally Israel about its planned offensive into Rafa one now starting the Southernmost city on the border with Egypt where again more than 1 million Palestinians are Sheltering Egyptian and US mediators have reported uh reported signs of compromise in recent days but chances for a ceasefire deal remain entangled with the key question whether Israel will will accept an end to the war without reaching its stated goal of destroying the militant group Hamas you know it’s it in Egypt state-owned alari news TV channel said that a cons consensus has been reached over many disputed points but not did not elaborate they say that a Hamas has called for a complete end of the war and with withdrawal of all Israeli forces from Gaza and of course that’s one of the challenges if Hamas is the negotiator and the terms in the table are well elimination why would they agree to it and that’s of course the challenge because Israel is saying that you know unless they get rid of Hamas in its entirety there’s going to be future attacks they need to defend themselves from future attacks uh I would argue that Hamas doesn’t really care about the lives of civilians and frankly if it means staying in power they’re probably not going to agree to be annihilated to save some civilians but look there’s also the issue of what the situation will look like even after the official War comes to an end uh just having a peace deal is not going to end this conflict this is going to be very likely a long War we talk about this though more only on Epic tv.com before we jump though my new documentary Weapons of Mass migration is out this Friday at 8:30 p.m. Eastern time it’s finally happening folks now in it I expose how of course the United Nations and the bid Administration have been working to facilitate Mass migration into the United States this is not just an organic problem we’ve been told the narratives right we’ve been told it’s all caused by Texas busing people into you know Martha’s Vineyard or into California and elsewhere we’ve seen lawsuits over this in fact California was threatening to sue Texas for human trafficking blaming of for the migrant crisis on Texas a lot of the corporate media have been playing that narrative as well but is that really the case well no it turns out the United States has joined an agreement with the United Nations called the global compact for migration and this policy has set in motion all the different systems to facilitate Mass migration into the United States and into Western Europe and also Canada and a couple other countries and we’re not being told about this we’ve not been told this directly in this documentary I of course go into Panama I go into the camps themselves I show you the United Nations checkpoints I interview leadership down there we go to the United Nations uh facilities and we show you exactly what is happening all the way again in Latin America and also on the US side where we found as well that on the US side there’s just processing facilities when they arrest people they’re not throwing them in prison when they arrest people they are processing them giving them free airplane tickets and then releasing them on the streets of the United States a lot of people have seen evidence of this they’ve seen small pieces of it I will show you in this documentary what is actually happening and not only that but the systems behind it this is going to be a very very important documentary again it comes out this Friday 8:30 p.m. eastern time you can find the link to it in the description below again 8:30 p.m. eastern time this Friday which is May 9th let me show you a trailer before we jump an unrelenting stream of

people pushing this are leading people to their death to what extent is the United Nations facilitating the Border crisis they’re throwing rocks they’re being overridden by International Powers we are not authorized to talk it is a humanitarian business now and they said oh yeah these are the debit cards giving these debit cards to the immigrants why all the clo of dagger why are we being so stealthy about this and some of these people have gone on record and publicly talked about this people close to Barack Obama it 12 million people on the path to citizenship and eventually follows I I’ve been researching of course what’s happening but I want to know why it’s [Music] happening we’ll see Chaos on a on a global scale until America is extinguished and the power shifts completely to
