it is april 19. this is "fox & friends" fox news alert, israel gearing up up to e deleterious traits against iran with a province containing nuclear facilities putting the entire region on edge. joe jackie joined us earlier. >> the money that they have, flush with money and what is up from, oil, oil, oil. that should be our focus. >> meanwhile, here at home, the shocking chant erupting outside of the police station! >> we are enough! >> you are what? >> yes, we are all -- [bleep] >> lawrence: so disgraceful pure it was happening today trump due back in court as soure continues for alternate jurors who can be impartial. >> ainsley: the final hours of "fox & friends" starts right n now. >> brian: fox news alert, u.s. official confirms israel launched a strike again iran

overnight. so far, no comment from tullibe. >> live, jeff paul, in tel aviv and the only one confirming israel is the united states. >> it seems like that, steve. people here in tel aviv aren't even noticing what is going on. you have people as they look off to the camera at the beach exercising, running their last-minute errands ahead of shabbat here usually on friday. so life does seem unchanged in tel aviv, but when it comes to the building tension that has been up very apparent over the last couple of days, that is starting to ease. we do know now that israel has responded to iran's unprecedented last weekend attack and doing it in a form of a very specific and targeted strike, mainly in the central reason of his behind. this is a specific location being so close to tehran,

200 miles away and near the nuclear facility. at site was not it and the strike appeared to target the nearby airbase. but it clearly shows if israel wants to hit iran, it can and it can do it where it wants and when it wants. really the only comments we have heard from iran's through state media there was explosions heard and that was caused by the iranian air defense system shooting down three drones cured recently retired general, jack keane, was just on fox news with this regarding how israel strike could impact iran. >> the important things are there will be sanctions coming forward, certainly missiles, drones, and you mention the steel industry come all of that is worthwhile. the fluctuate of money and what is that from? oil, oil, oil. and that should be our focus. >> so far no comments from any sort of israeli officials or

military spokespersons here in israel appear that goes along the lines of the typical israeli domestic israeli strategy to not come from targeted strikes fear there will be a war cabinet meeg later today and that will obviously be a topic of discussion as well as ongoing war in gaza. the escalating tensions in the north as israel continues to exchange strikes with iranian proxy group, hezbollah. >> steve: jeff paul live from tullibe. let's bring in brigadie brigadier general, spalding. >> good morning. >> brian: what do you make of the fact so far israel has said nothing and iran has said, "we are not going to strike back." and it's out to mexicans as i mentioned a moment ago, the u.s. pentagon. jacqui heinrich reported last night that apparently the united states was in contact and israel called us last night and

said, "hey, we are going to hit," but that is only notification. >> welcome at the israelis are typically silent about what they were going to do in operation such as these. we talk all the time, so it is in character for what goes on typically for one of these strikes. >> ainsley: iran is downplaying it. and we have had reporters that says this gives them an exit ramp to save face and don't necessarily have to respond. but you had the foreign minister of iran on one of the channels here in new york just hours before the strike. and he said, "if israel commits that mistake once again, response will be decisive, definite, and regretful." how do you think they will respond if they respond at all? >> as i watched his statement, what was concerning to me was it sounded like it wasn't just aimed at israel but also the

united states. bureau to give our southern border situation, in particular, their ability to potentially create a nuclear weapon with my would be a worried about attacks in the homeland. you have video of hamas in the united states, so i think it is a concern appearance before you know, general, i'm curious about our foreign policy pure to be safe israel you can't get involved and you can't respond but we know iran is number one respons. israel is our ally. do you have a grasp of what the administration is saying? can we push our arm back and say, israel you do it, we are not going to get involved? >> there is no comprehensive strategy. we typically respond to other provocations. i would like to say everything was coordinated because these are all related. iran is supported by china, china supports russia, so this is a comprehensive, global war

we are facing, a cold war and it seems like it is about to turn hot. >> brian: general, the thing is if you take a step back and talk about strategy, the world was set to watch the ebrahim accords to spend with israel. what happened october 7th? all hell breaks loose as hamas rises up after meeting with iranian and hezbollah officials multiple time "the wall street journal" and possible attack on israel. since that time, nothing but tumult. if you take a step back, how do you read get control of the situation and recognize iran's as the problem and go work with your neighbor to come up with a solution? because winning in gaza, winning over in lebanon, striking iran is exactly what iran wants. >> well, you know, the ebrahim accords started to bring the gold states and israel together and i think those should be repursued. we should start to put sanctions

on iran in china and put the houthis on t the watch list. in a strategy to bring the middle east more in line with the arab countries and israel and basically isolate iran. our funding of iran is really the problem. >> steve: general come apparently according to "the new york times," last weekd israel were pretty much ready to real time, okay, they are bombing us, but let's pump them but clearly talked out by joe biden. but benjamin netanyahu i don't make this a bigger war. we knew the israelis would have to strike back and they did even though they are not taking credit for it here and now we know iran says, you know what, we will not retaliate. so visit over? >> will my main my really this began back to 2020 with the biden administration basically reopening our friendship with i.

that is the problem. it happened october 7th, yes, but that has been building because we have been funding them and slowly relaxing all of the pressure that we put on them in the prior administration. >> brian: we are afraid to sanction oil because it will bring the price of oil up and the prime minister over your basically running and brushing us back telling us we better not act. >> lawrence: general, is it too late to pivot for the administration? i know this is supposed to be part of the legacy, part two of the obama administration. can the administration say we are done with this? >> i don't think so. i think this entire system is aligned towards iran here but they very pro-palestinian. i'm not sure where they are, but they are. we are seeing rising anti-semitism. it is just part of the ideology. i think we will be in for until the end of this administration.

>> brian: for next generation of palestinians. general, thank you. >> ainsley: thank you. >> thank you. >> brian: they were so much we don't know about the strike. >> ainsley: you look at as below, on the border of israel and now an ally of iran. but they did not participate in the insult last saturday. they delayed their statement, congratulating tehran for the attack. i heard some interviews on "fox & friends first" talking about does this mean hezbollah does not want to work? >> brian: no, they are being orchestrated by iran. if iran said we need you to bomb, they have 150,000 rockets. and they lost two commanders a couple of days ago because israel continues to target them. but the big problem in israel and many men they have to move 200 miles off of the northern border while these people displaced and can't work and can't go to school, can't pay their bills because they are afraid of being rocketed by hezbollah. so the status quo does not work.

b3 we heard from andy point can the top of the last hour where e was talking a little bit about the g7 in italy that he is attending. they were condemning iran's attack on israel. they put out a paper statement very much more comprehensive them at the g7 is calling on iran to stop supporting hamas and hezbollah. >> brian: that will work. >> steve: exactly. you can wish what you want but that ain't going to happen appear in >> lawrence: that is a good point, why put that on paper and why not just say thatr everyone to hear publicly? >> antony blinken didn't even mention israeli because they are pretending it didn't happen. they are trying to sweep it under the rug and israel is not taking credit for it. >> brian: blaming philip and for the reasons there was nothing with the hostages. basically gave them sweetheart deal in 900 prisoners given back to the palestinians, a hundred of which have israeli blood on their hands.

exchanged 40 hostages in temporary cease-fire. hamas walked away from that. why did hamas walk away? one of the reasons, they don't have 40 hostages. so as few as 20 left. >> lawrence: secretary said hamas moves the goalpost when it comes to negotiation because they don't want to deal. >> ainsley: this morning we have sources in israel and tel aviv, sending pictures of the beach and how life is back to normal and some of the marketplace is where this is not affecting the metal after what happened last night. they are back at school. the government has return to normalcy as well. >> brian: all right meanwhile it is eight: 11 in new york city. >> brian: speaking of normal. >> ainsley: to another alert ill on omar's daughter met with cheers after released after being arrested during anti-israel protest at columbia university yesterday. >> lawrence: brooke singman has a story on that, hey. >> ilhan omar starter facing

trespassing charges after being one of more than 100 anti-israel protesters to be arrested on the columbia university campus. she is now assessment of from barnard college are refusing to leave campus after receiving warning from senior staff. she says those of us in gaza solidarity encampment will not be intimidated. we will stand resolute until demands are met. protesters set up a makeshift encampment on the university's platform for more than 30 hours. eventually the school's president turned to the nypd for help saying the massive crowd was interfering with school operations. watch this. [chanting] >> they were handcuffed and loaded into corrections which were immediately blocked by even more protesters, back to you guys. >> steve: brook, number of students were suspended. how long is the suspension, a

day a week for the rest of the term? you know, i don't know yet but the university's president testifying on capitol hill this week saying anti-semitism on campus is a problem and she vowed to take additional steps to combat anti-semitism on the camp spirit of course, these are anti-israel pro-palestinian protests so we will see how long the students are suspended if it is for the rest of the year. actually, it is april so these kids are probably going home soon. but we will see if it is a slap on the wrist or what is to come there. >> steve: you are right, the crackdown apparently started -- thank you very much, brooke, started hours after the president wasn't congress. and went back to columbia and then a note when out to the students, "unless you get out of the square with the tenants, we will start spinning people and calling in the cobs in 5 minute. >> lawrence: i don't like how the kids are trying to act like modern-day civil rights leaders. none of the icon stood for terrorists. none of them blocked roe v. wade

to obstruct traffic in this way. it was a worthy cause trying to use the wing which of the civil rights movement. i just wish that older statesmen that were part of civil rights movement would condemn this and say this is not what we did. i think it is insulting. >> ainsley: you have a lady yelling, "i am hamas, i am hamas post quote. >> lawrence: you should go there so israel can deal with all of the elements. >> brian: they have their faces covered too not worried about the coronavirus. >> steve: they don't want their parents to see them. >> lawrence: they don't want the cops to track them and know who they are appearance me when i heard a little bit of frustration from the nypd. we got a call from columbia president to and why they let them set up but now we have to clean up your work and rip these smelly tents out of the ground. >> lawrence: it is unbelievable and just over an hour, a live look at trump tower

as we await trump's departure to new york state supreme court. >> ainsley: just over an hour, he will be back in court they fork of hush money trial has 12 jurors are picked and search for alternates continues today. >> brian: eric shawn will be covering it at the supreme court, eric. >> good morning, by the end of the day they try to get the five remaining alternate jurors picked and ceded the pier that means i can kick off with opening statements in this trial on monday. the jury with one man who follows the former president but also includes a woman who called him "selfish and self-serving." the jury consist of seven men and five women in mostly professionals, but there is also a teacher, a physical therapist, and others. they pledged to be fair and impartial to the former president, even though the lawyers tried to prevent that woman who said she doesn't like his demeanor from being seated on the panel. by the time they got to her, the defense was out of challenges so

she is a member of the jury. another jury dough mixture turns out and posted on facebook of people celebrating president biden's win. but she said she could be fair. and a juror who follows on true social also follows michael cohen on x. the former president of the court decides the case. >> all of these are stories from legal experts saying how this is not a case here the case is ridiculous. another one of the cases that is ridiculous, trump indictment. it is missing fraud, there is no fraud. >> trump has taken to true social to post opinions of many analysts who criticize the trail pier that has prompted prosecutors to highlight seven more examples of him violating e ad court if they say in addition to the first three examples, they cited a few days ago, trump is barred by law

by attacking witnesses but for example one post slimmed michael cohen as "a serial liar." there will be at hearing next week to see if he will be found in contempt of court as alvin bragg is demanding that could lead to a fine for the former president of $10,000 and up to, 30 days in jail, but no one really believes he could potentially be jailed for that. if there is time at the end of the day, there will be a hearing over what the prosecutors will be allowed to ask trump. this is for the defense attorneys to get a preview of what they could expect if he does, indeed, testify. that could include talking about the verdict have a billion-dollar verdict in the real estate fraud trial and affect the jury found him liable for sexually assaulting and defaming e. jean carroll. that may come later today have come about as it stands right now, they are back in court at 9:30 eastern time. we expect the former president back in his seat behind the

wooden defense table in the courtroom. back to you. >> brian: and the cold court room. hey, eric, quick question for you, today, the agenda is to pick five more alternates. so they have a total of six. is that enough? they have already -- yesterday the judge excused two of the jurors and saying you have to wonder over weeks and weeks of trial a lot more people could drop out. >> yeah, that is a really good point. i have covered trials where a juror or two has dropped out in considering this type of case. they say that six alternates is enough, but we will have to see as this goes through the next month. maybe i will tell them to call you, steve. maybe you want to come down here. >> steve: i live in new jersey. >> brian: thanks, eric. >> steve: i'm busy. >> brian: really clear, you have to bring underarm. because the worst is being in a

boardroom very bored and it is hot. and he needs to keep the studio 50 degrees. so maybe the judge knowing people are falling asleep because i definitely know the feeling. >> lawrence: clearly, the council has complained and they have been unmovable. in changing the temperature. >> steve: wear a coat. >> ainsley: the judge gave an option to step down in the beginning stages. other things going on in your life and you don't want to be here, you can leap your normally, they will interviewed you, even though you don't want to be there. a lot of people but they don't like to get out or they are just interested in these trials come of the system. >> steve: the system and they want to be a part of it. we went they love paper chasing the '70s and law and order n now. >> steve: an ivy league sch school. >> remember the guy from john houseman, he was in court. they like that old feeling of

being a lawyer in the dark wood. >> lawrence: have you ever been on the jury? >> brian: no, that's me not t to. >> ainsley: they said if you can't serve for six months, this trial will go on for six months, then lets us know. three of us, that was it, the whole courtroom was packed and everybody else wanted to be there. i'm sorry, i am a mom and can't sit there for six months. the five i have a future. >> brian: unlike these people.
