180501, 3636, called now i mourn liebermann at the pentagon, >> and this cnn

>> you're in the cnn newsroom. i'm wolf blitzer in washington happening this hour over at the white house. president joe biden and japanese prime minister fumio kishida are sitting down for a bilateral meeting in the oval office, and that will be followed by a joint news conference early this afternoon. officials say that to liters will announce a list of defense and diplomatic agreements to strengthen ties. cnn's arlette saenz is joining us live from the white house right now, or what is president biden want to achieve? during this important summit? >> well, well, if president biden is trying to showcase the close relationship with japan and the country's prime minister in the indo-pacific as they are looking to blunt china's rise. now, president biden a short while ago welcomed the prime minister here at the white house for the full pomp and circumstance of that arrival ceremony. the two men walking, reviewing the

troops, and also they both delivered remarks present so then biden hailing the partnership with japan as a monumental alliance, saying that their strength has really been a highlight of their alliance building in the region. take a listen to what he had to say. >> president eisenhower said, his goal was to establish an indestructible partnership between our countries today the world can see that goal has been achieved and that partnership between us is unbreakable >> no precedent noted that japan has really been at the cornerstone of so much of the administration's efforts to rebuild these alliances in the indo-pacific, but also they've seen a eerie willing partner in because shiga, from the fact that he has offered so much support to ukraine amid russia's invasion of that country. now the president, and because she had are right now are needing a bilateral meeting and they're expected to

outline a host of announcements on several fronts, including really trying to deepen the defense and security ties between the two country, announcing new steps when it comes to space as japan has signaled that they would like to land and austria astronaut on the moon, there's also people, two people ties, steepening of semiconductor production together. all of th really encapsulating the view that the us views japan as one of its strongest allies. now there are some areas differences. we know that the president has oppose the sale of us steel to japan. officials say that that he don't expect that to come up in discussions at this relationship is much larger than one commercial deal. but i also want to note one significant symbolic announcement that was made by president biden and kush chita, japan provided a cherry blossom trees to the united states back in the 20th century. some of those trees, which many visitors come to washington dc to visit in the spring time. some of those trees have to be cut down and japan has offered to provide new saplings of those trees, really stressing

the symbolism of between the two countries because she does saying that the cherry blossom like relationship of the united states it is on display. so we are expecting to see them in just a few hours again in that meeting, but also at a joint news conference and then tonight, the white house is hosting that lavish state dinners. they're trying to honor one of their closest allies we all love those cherry blossoms here in washington. arlette saenz over the white house. thank you very much. i want to bring his sentence, hanako montgomery right now. she's joining us live from tokyo or hanako, what is japan's prime minister want to achieve during this historic visit with president by yeah well if i think she does really looking to emphasize his relationship and how strong is >> relationship is with us president joe biden at this bilateral meeting. now, because she looks to do this primarily through the defense sector under kishida is leadership. we've already seen japan bolster for its defense capabilities to levels we haven't seen since world war ii during our interview with the japanese prime minister on

sunday ahead of his visit to washington, i asked him about this policy change and some of the security challenges that japan was facing. this is what he told me hi kate, you work when you in our neighborhood, there are countries that are developing ballistic missiles and >> nuclear weapons. and others that are building up their defense capabilities in an opaque way. also, there is a unilateral attempt to change the status quo by force in both the east it's trying to sea and south china sea >> now, to combat these growing geopolitical tensions, a senior us government official tells me that japan and the united states will announce a joint defense counsel which will look to co-produce and co-develop military exports. we've already seen under kishida's leadership, japan decide to export american design patriot missiles to the united states that were made in japan. so this move is really an

expansion of that the senior government official also tells me that because cheetah and biden will announce a joint operations command in japan, which of course is a move that the united states has long pursued right now, joined operations of us personnel in japan are directed by endofpacket com, which is headquartered in hawaii. so with this move, it would make it much, much easier to coordinate military operations at a real time pace. wolf, and of course this will all culminates in japan becoming more of a global partner rather than just a regional player. >> i'm gonna go montgomery in tokyo for us, hanukkah. thank you very, very much. >> want to >> talk about the wider implications of this summit between the united states and japan are chief national security analysts, jim sciutto as joining me right now. he's got an important, very important new book that has just come out of brooches. this very subject. it's called various either cover the return of great p powers boris, russia china, and the next world war. it's a new york times bestseller, right now,

important reading for all of us. give us some perspective on the summit. that's taking place at the white house right now. >> this is all about china a rising china also north korea, to, to some degree, and the shared us and japanese concern about that but and a strategic decision by the us and japan and also other us allies in the region south korea, australia, to bring their alliance closer in military terms. in military industrial terms, building up supplies and so on, defense terms i look at it this way. you've got china that is rapidly expanding its nuclear arsenal. it's missile arsenal north korea is also a nuclear power also expanding that japan is very close to that threat. it sees a direct threat and it calculates it needs more us support to defend itself against those threats. isn't going to go. >> it >> will it is. and that's part of the agreement here. it's not just a show of force of them together, but it's also expanding the us defense agreement, making very clear to

japan that the us will continue to defend it against jet, chinese and japanese missiles in the event of conflict here. but also the us showing influence in the region you saw. hanako mentioned the threat to the south china sea and the east china sea because china has already been active there, it's all already made a huge land grab in the south china sea with these man-made islands. so all those things are threat to japan's security. and its trade as well. and it wants to improve its defenses. and by the way, by also expanding its own military resources. and you should know we're about to get the tape of the opening statements from the prime minister and the president in the oval office they're just sitting down for their meeting and once we get that table, we'll play it for our viewers. let's see what both of these leaders have to say. yeah, you've done a lot of reporting from china however, the chinese likely to view this summit between the us and japan. >> they will, i think it's fairly likely you'll, you'll see commentary from them, possibly from the foreign ministry spokesperson or even

in their ccp newspapers, that is talking about this being antagonistic in some way are hostile to chinese interests that china will reaffirm that it wants peace in the region et cetera. so they will look at it to some degree as a threat, not a surprising one. the us has had a decades long mutual defense agreement with japan, as has south korea, the us, of course, has troops based in japan as it does in south korea, but it is also expanding those alliances now, and china sees that as a wrecked response to its rise and a direct threat to its interests in the region, by the way, it's interesting, it's not just the us that is improving relations with japan and alliances. you see a lot of european nations that have been creating agreements and so on, which is interesting because europe, though it's further away, looks at china as a threat as well very quickly north korea is looking at all of this as well. and certainly north korea subject that the president and the prime minister, we'll be discussing. absolutely and look back to what the camp david, if you remember the camp david summit last summer between the us,

japan, and south korea. all three of those countries look not just to china, but certainly the north korean, of course, south korea is much closer to the north, north korean threat. so north korea will look at this as further antagonism from the west and its allies and as a challenge to its leadership. but again, one that is, let's be frank decades-old us forces have been in south korea virtually since, well, since the 1950s japan's its tonight. this is it is 41 thing. i think we should note is that in november, there is an enormous choice for american voters in terms of how the us views these alliances because for my book, i spoke to several of trump's former senior advisers and they say that not only is he less interested, less committed to the nato military alliance, we talk about that frequently but that he does not have the same commitment to the us military alliances with japan or south korea and might very well reduce them or eliminate >> here's the tape now of the president and the prime minister in the oval office. i

just moments ago, we're just getting the tape in from the white house right now. let's listen them we were here last year. we said the role being played by the united states and japan is it'd even greater i couldn't agree more with your assertion back and what we see in our joint support for ukraine will face of russia's vicious assault was just outrageous >> going to have and i stick this applicant you just for my message for state that i go today. >> she we see it no are trilateral relationship with south korea

>> not that you don't want it sticking out curio we see in our economic investments, which has helped generate >> all these issues >> and that's already personally made all as possible. it's already know how to >> do? annuity put it i got can only my staff and i would assert our alliance has never been stronger. our entire history >> to stay alive today, don't big joke has night what you're gonna cover today >> and cooperation across the board so stick kill boy. yeah.

>> up until now, joe, you and i, we have had countless dialogues and we have nurtured of friendship and a trust along the way. japan and the united states are now at the forefront in maintaining and strengthening a free and open international order are based on the rule of law, >> and as anybody i said, i do okay. to just looks at day. so suppose it's taking a case, i time any color equal guy, no you don't america to keep

cartoony pseudo total modi. the older adult now you. guys soon shown like you try to set do this official visit. i look forward >> to confirm demonstrate at home and abroad how japan and us hurley put together will build a future as global partners >> at those, okay sneak has homozygous at again, i thank you for your warm hospitality. >> thank you >> wind >> all right. so reporters are shutting a few questions were told that there will be a separate cameras video of maybe the president answering your

question about what's going on with israel and gaza will listen to that and we'll play it for you once we get that separate video tape as well. jim sciutto is still with me. are alliance the president said the alliance between the united states and japan has never been stronger in our entire history. >> listed. these things are about public messaging, right? to see the leaders of these two countries next to each other. but at the root of it is a very genuine about the rise of china the military threat from china to japan, but also us interests in the region, as well as north korea. and not just from a military perspective, but also from a trade perspective. and you heard the president referenced that by saying you know, japan wants open shipping lanes, et cetera. this is important to their trade. it's of course important to us trade the us frequently makes the argument. it's important to china's trade as well to have those sea lanes open so they see a dual threat military and trade, and they're trying to message that the us and japan are very close. the trouble is

a new president in the fall just based on trump's vision of the world, would have a very different view of that alliance that he said this publicly he attempted to reduce us troops, for instance, in south korea during his last term, i'll just tell you what, what john kelly, his former chief of staff, told me in the book, he said the point is he speaking of trump. so i know point nato. he was just dead set against having troops in south korea, again, a deterrent force, or having troops in japan a deterrent forced that would be a remarkable switch for a us president to reduce or even eliminate those alliances. whereas you have biden, expanding them, it fits into trump's skepticism about the importance of the nato hundred miles as well. and this is an alliance with japan. it's been going on in so-so significant right now, jim, thank you very much. jim sciutto. and once again, his new book, the return of great powers, various viet, russia, china, and the next world war is available right now. it's out there on bookshelves. you can go check it out. >> it's >> a must read. i must say that

washington and this is cnn new this morning, sentencing for one of donald trump's closest allies, 76 year-old >> alan weisselberg is headed to jail over at rikers island in new york. the former chief financial officer of the trump organization admitted to lying under oath in the civil fraud case against the former president and just minutes ago, we learned that the former president has filed another appeal in his hush money case. cnn's kara scannell is joining us from new york, where they're new reporting. what can you tell us about this new filing? this latest filing, kara yeah. >> well, if this latest filing is another attempt to appeal some of the rulings by judge juan merchan, who is overseeing the hush-money criminal case in this new filing, trump's attorneys are asked, are going to the appeals court to challenge the judge is denial of their motion for that about presidential immunity. they want the judge to postpone the

trial until the supreme court decides the issue of presidential immunity. the judge had denied that, saying it was untimely, it was too late before the trial for them to raise this. they also want to challenge him his oversight of the case, saying that he should recuse himself from the case based on work his daughter does for a political firm that works for democrats. the judge hasn't actually formally ruled on that recusal war ruling. but they're already taken this to the appeals court. now the documents are still loading on the docket, but right now, what we could see before it was sealed was that they are asking for a hearing in may. now, we did see the other day earlier this week they also filed a petition, but then made an emergency motion for it to go before the appeals court. that hasn't happened yet, but we're watching closely to see if they do try to bring this the appeals court today to try to get a judge to stop the trial. it's not clear at this moment whether that is going to happen. but because this is still unfolding, but it would be the third attempt this week for them to try to derail the

trial scheduled to start on monday. they earlier this week, they tried to get a judge to stop the case so they could argue that there was too much pretrial publicity to have this case in manhattan that was denied. they also tried to stop the trial over a gag order that the judge put in place to limit what donald trump could say about witnesses, about the prosecutor in the judge's family, and about jurors in this case. that was also quickly denied. but this is now the latest attempt to try to throw sand in the gears of this trial. now that we are just days away from jury selection starting on monday. well, kara, you were in the courtroom today for the weisselberg sentencing. alan weisselberg, former chief he financial officer of the trump organization. he was with trump all those years. tell us how that unfolded >> yeah, a real loyal lieutenants of donald >> trump's, he appeared in court today, arriving wearing a windbreaker dress to report to prison the whole hearing took less than five minutes when the judge asked weisselberg if he had any thing to say before she sentenced him. he said, no,

your honor. she said she would honor the agreement that weisselberg had made with prosecutors and sentenced him to five months in jail after that moment accord officials came up to him, handcuffed him behind his back, and led him out of the courtroom where he will be phi process and begin serving this five incentives. it is the second guilty for alan weisselberg. you previously pleaded guilty to tax fraud charges, also an ideal with prosecutors was sentenced to five months in jail, ended up serving about 100 days in rikers island here in manhattan. this is, of course, the second time weisselberg is pleading guilty, but neither in neither case is he cooperating against donald trump, he will not be a witness at the trial, expected to start next week, even though he was involved in the financial paperwork involving the hush money payments, which is central to this case he is not cooperating against donald trump and he's not expected to be called as a witness. well, yeah, it's hard to believe he's handcuffed he's going back to rikers island is notorious prison in new york

city area before trump became president. and i used to go to trump tower all the time. an interview trump and almost every single time i was there, the first person i would see was alan weisselberg. he worked for years and years and years together with trump and now some other trump associates, he's winding up in jail. kara scannell. thank you. very, very much. so let's discuss this in more with our senior legal analyst, the former federal prosecutor, elie honig, get first of all, le what's your reaction to this latest trump appeal to delay? >> well if i don't think trump has much of a chance of either succeeding on this appeal or of using it to cause a delay in the april 15 trial start date. so the new issue that trump is bringing up on appeal now as qarrah relates to his claim of presidential immunity. but first of all, there's a procedural problem which is as kara said, too late, he was opposed to make this motion months ago. and second of all, if you look at the substance of it, remember the crime here relates to hush money that was

paid to stormy daniels before the 2016 election. so donald trump wasn't even president yet. now, some of the reimbursements spilled over into the first weeks and months while trump was president. but i don't think there's any way he has a realistic the claim of immunity in this particular trial. >> as you know, elie jury selection is scheduled to begin this coming monday in the hush money case in new york is this appeal a measure of the trump team's desperation to simply try once again and they failed repeatedly to delay, delay, delay well, we've been saying that throughout the week. wolfe as qarrah notice, i think this is at least the third appeal in three days. >> you do >> see this sometimes it's not uncommon to see a defendant in the days leading up to the trial itself try anything to derail the proceedings. this is taking it to a new level, perhaps a new low. i don't think trump has any merit to these arguments. again, he has missed his opportunity. there was a time to make these arguments. the fact that they're coming so late and so far after the deadlines and

they're all in this sort of emergency procedural stands, i think does speak to a certain level of desperation. i don't think it's taking hold. we haven't seen any of these last-minute motions to get any traction with either judge immersion or the appellate court, and i don't expect that to change in the coming days. >> yeah. i think you're probably right. i want to turn to the sentencing of alan weisselberg, who was the chief financial in charge of a lot of the operations with the trump organization over a decades, decades. take a look at this. no up on the screen, weisselberg is among 13 former trump associates. now convicted of a crime, 13, several of them have actually wound up in jail. peter navarro only in recent days is off to jail. our is all of this that 13 of trump's associates have been convicted and several of them wound up in jail. jail >> what will if it's certainly a pattern and i think it's unlike anything we've seen in american history to have this many lawyers, associates,

advisors of a president or former president be in some cases indicted and others convicted. and as you say, and others in prison. and i think it's really underscores the stakes of the trump trial, which starts next week because i think the question a lot of people naturally are wondering as well, all these people have been punished to varying extents for things they did with four and around donald trump. well, how about donald trump himself? >> we will >> get at least the beginnings of an answer as we see that hush money trial play out in manhattan starting on monday first time in american history that a former president of the united states will face a criminal trial. it's gonna be pretty amazing to watch all of this unfold starting monday, we'll of course, have special coverage of all of that. elie. thank you very, very much. elie honig giving us excellent analysis as usual, there's other news that we're following right now. it's knew this morning a long-awaited day those are the words of the attorney for the victims of six former mississippi law enforcement officers who just

received state prison sentences, ranging between 15 and 45 years. for the torture and abuse of two black men, the officers who called themselves. and i'm quoting them now, the goon squad pleaded guilty to torturing and sexually assaulting the men. they were sworn to protect in their community >> one of them, >> one of those men was actually shot in the mouth the case has garnered national attention for the racism and the inhumane acts committed back in this 2023 incident last month, all six were sentenced to federal prison terms, ranging from ten to 40 years. cnn senior national correspondent, ryan young is joining us, write now. you've been covering this for us for a while. rian describe the feeling of the courtroom and you were there when the sentences were being handed down >> yeah. we've been covering this case now for over eight months, and i can tell you when you think about how this started, this all started because the officers were upset

that to do two victims could be dating a white woman and that's what started this whole home invasion, standing next to me is militia bass. he's the man who represents both eddie parker and michael jenkins. you said today, this really meant something because it's never happened in rankin county that officers would be charged and faced penalty as history has been made, the goon squad here and rankin county, who have never been held accountable for all their crimes had to >> appear and to be sentence for their terrorism and torture of michael jenkins, eddie parker, and many others and rankin county. today was historic injustice. >> you spent time with both men. we've talked about this before they are really suffering with the mental anguish about what was done to them this was a home invasion. they were brutalized what stood out to you about how these men were treated for 88 minutes for almost two hours the being called racial names and the inward bird monkey and boys to

be attacked on the basis of their race, to have police officers to handcuff them to essentially tortured him you sexual devices against them to strip them naked, to ultimately shoot michael jenkins in the mouth this is one of the worst cases of police brutality in american history. and that's why strong sentences have been given out in this case to these rogue deputies. >> you're not done yet though >> you want the federal government to step into the right behind us where the sheriff's deputies are. you want them to do something about how this is run? absolutely. we are in discussion with the united states attorney general of the civil rights division, ms kristen clarke, her southern division, and were expecting a pattern and practice investigation of the federal government into rankin county sheriff's department, bryan bailey it should be removed according to that in double acp here. and ultimately the entire rankin county when he

sheriff's department must be cleaned out and transform if the citizens of rankin county are to be able to have confidence in justice, how tough is it been for the recovery? because i know mr. jenkins obviously had to learn how to talk again, but can you talk about the recovery because you've been you've spent a lot of time with them >> it's tough. michael jenkins who had at its at his jaw shattered. he can't do what he used to do. he's and he's in therapy and they tried to take the man who lit from these men. and when when you conduct acts of sexual depravity, that is designed to take the man who lit from the victims. it could take years or a lifetime to recover. i mean, can you imagine being captured by these six criminals in this house and torturing and abusing you. i mean, that goes on like a lifetime, probably take a lifetime to heal from these attacks. >> i want to thank you for stopping with us and talking to you. thank you. thank you so much for thank you, sir. thank you. thank you. well, we've been covering this for quite some time. there's still more work to be done. there lot of

questions to be answered, but we saw this play out in court today for the first time on camera. you understand why there's so much emotion that's attached to this? well, at least six police officers are going to be spending a lot of time in jail right now. ryan young. thank you. very, very much still to come. we're getting reaction to the arizona supreme court ruling that revived a simple the whole war era law, banning nearly all abortions ha speak to congressmen jim clyburn about that and more stay with us urine, the cnn newsroom there's a new ally in the fight against climate change. this >> is new car business blue carbon we just need to protect nature will do the rest in >> carbon. >> cnn film sunday, >> april 21 at nine. >> my moderate to severe plaque psoriasis held me back. now with sky rizzi, i'm all in with clear skin we've sky rizzi

president biden is slamming this ruling in arizona allowing a near total ban on abortion rights for women to go into effect. the vice president kamala harris will travel to arizona this week. what kind of impact do you expect that this will all have come november well thank you very much for having me. >> i would >> hope that this decision there in arizona but wake people up through exactly what's going on by the republican party at this particular juncture in our history in, 18 64 law being a head to a states rights law let me just say once the camera gets his nose under the tent that was soon follow and that's what's happening here. we got to look at the fact that

a lot of law that we have put behind us, or now being placed in front of us. this is just one of them we see what we saw, what happened back in 18, 76 another law reagan in states rights. this is the state rights issue and if the supreme court of arizona as it's holding adopted by the supreme are these united states we will see a revisit of states rights, laws all across the board. it has already happened with the blood rights act 1965. it has happened >> women >> reproductive rights, who was not a super rights law, but it was a states rights issue. the president is now saying he wants to see this issue of women reproductive rights given

to a state by state basis. so one person can have a set of rights in one state and not have the same rights in another state that's not the way to keep our country to the other so how congressman, do you think the congress and you've served in the congress for a long time. do you think that congress will ever take direct >> action to protect abortion rights for women nationwide? >> yes i think we can. it all depends upon the votes of the american people. i think that when people began to see what is happening here, they are going to put in office in the house of representatives and the senate people who respect the individual life and the rights of americans all across the board yes, i do believe in the elections in november the people of this country. we elect to office.

>> people who >> respect their rights. people believe in this country. people who believe in democracy and autocracy. and i believe we'll get there, by this time next year. >> yeah. i want to talk about another important issue right now. certainly looking forward to the elections, the economy, as you know, the latest numbers out today, inflation rose once again in march, a larger than expected jump. president biden's former chief of staff is critical of him for focusing in talking a lot about infrastructures that have issues like inflation. there was audio can politico in which this was said by the former president's former chief of staff around claim. listen to this. i'll read it. >> i >> think the president is out there too much talking about bridges. if you go into the grocery store, you know, eggs and milk are expensive he's not running for congress. i think it's kind of a fool's errand. how do you respond to that, congressman

>> well i'm not an economist. i don't know how these species really work but i know this i do know that people who had jobs because of this infrastructure law, a very pleased to be back at work again >> i do know that people who see these plaques to being put in their districts like the stout plant in richmond county, south carolina. the baba plan in berkeley county, south carolina these battery plants are providing jobs for people that never had a good paying job before those things we need to talk about. so i do believe you have to do things off balance. what to say you've got, you can talk about wondered, could you talk about the other i'm not there to that's the way back. so when i hear people talk about the economy, i'm talking about the stock market and stopped up

monday for you. what we want gays i asked them about the people that i represent who don't have failed or one gauge. but they are looking for jobs and now they've got jobs how do you balance that out we've got to have those discussions on both sides of the equation. >> not >> one or the other. >> good point on >> another sensitive issue, i assume you've heard about this. it's been out for a few hours now, president biden calling the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu's approach to the war in gaza yes, hamas, a mistake that was it. a new interview with univision and if comes amid growing discontent as, you know well, among so many of your fellow democrats. but we'll anything other than an immediate ceasefire dampen the growing anger within parts of your democratic coalition as far as what israel is engaged in this war against hamas in gaza >> all of this, i would say is

unable to return the 40 israeli hostages needed for this first phase of a potential ceasefire, claiming it does not have enough living hostages who match its criteria for release. cnn's chief national security correspondent, alex marquardt, is here with me in the newsroom. he's got detail alex, first of all, what can you tell us about this proposed framework deal? and hamas saying they don't know where these 40 hostages or this could be a real complicating factor, wolf, because the way that we've understand this deal that has been fiercely negotiated for weeks, if not months now, is that in the first phase of a ceasefire which would last around six weeks, hamas it would be expected to hand over 40 of these israeli hostages who have been held for more than six months now. and the hostages who would be expected to come home are women. all of the remaining women elderly, wounded, and sick menn. if you've been following this closely, which cnn has, there have been fears that hamas may not have 40 of these hostages. they would be expected to

release. and now we're told that my colleague jeremy diamond in myself, that hamas is actually told the mediators, we don't have or we can't locate 40 of these women. these elderly man, these, these sick and wounded menn. so this is a real concern and it really does raise fears that there could be more hostages who have been killed than we have anticipated. now, israel has been asking repeatedly for a list of the hostages who remain, those who are alive, and those who are dead from hamas hamas has not handed over that list. hamas has said as they have before, we need a break in the fighting in order to be able to find these it's hostages who are believed to have been spread out among different factions of hamas different groups even held by families there is a push by israel that if there are not 40 in these categories, that they supplement the hostages to be released with some of the younger men, idf soldiers, men who were of military age, who hamas is believed to be holding onto for a later negotiation in which, at which point they

believed they could get more out of israel >> we make of these most recent comments, pretty tough comments against the israeli government and the tenure by the president. >> i think it's quite remarkable. we have heard increasingly pointed comments by president biden about what but israel is doing. he's talked about indiscriminate bombing. he has criticized the far right wing government. but in these most recent comments that we heard yesterday, and this univision interview, he talks about how, what netanyahu is doing what he's doing is a mistake. how he doesn't agree with his approach very sharp comments about netanyahu himself clear that his patience is running out. we should note that these comments came just a few days after the bombing of these world central kitchen staffers. it is clear wolf that the frustration is growing significantly, but that has not yet resulted in a major change in us policy towards israel. and that is the big question. will we reach that tipping point? >> you will find out sooner rather than later. no doubt. alex, thk you r your
