Israel Ready for Assault on Rafah | CBN NewsWatch - April 26, 2024

VISIT WATCH TO FIND WHERE TO WATCH THIS IS CBN NEWS THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US FOR CBN NEWS. WATCH. GRAHAM WE BEGIN THIS HALF HOUR IN THE MIDDLE EAST WHERE ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES TO MOVE INTO RAFAH, THE LAST MAJOR STRONGHOLD HAMAS IN GAZA. MEANWHILE, ISRAEL IS STILL INVOLVED WITH INTENSE FIGHTING WITH HEZBOLLAH. MIDDLE EAST BUREAU CHIEF CHRIS MITCHELL HAS MORE NOW FROM JERUSALEM. >> ISRAEL IS SET TO GO AHEAD WITH ITS PLANS TO TAKE OUT HAMAS IN RAFAH DESPITE THE DISAPPROVAL OF THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. ISRAEL IS SETTING UP THOUSANDS OF TENTS BEFORE THE MILITARY ACTION TO PROVIDE A SANCTUARY TO KEEP CIVILIANS OUT OF HARM'S WAY. THE OPERATION ALSO AIMS TO RESCUE THE REMAINING HOSTAGES. 133 HOSTAGES ARE STILL HELD BY HAMAS IN GAZA FOR OVER 200 DAYS IN INHUMANE CONDITIONS. >> UNTIL HAMAS RELEASES THE HOSTAGES, THE IDF WILL CONTINUE TO PURSUE HAMAS EVERYWHERE IN GAZA. THIS IS AN URGENT CALL ACTION. WE WILL LEAVE NO STONE UNTURNED IN OUR EFFORTS TO FIND OUR HOSTAGES. >> PRESIDENT BIDEN AND THE LEADERS OF 17 OTHER NATIONS WITH HOSTAGES IN THE OF HAMAS HAVE ISSUED A JOINT STATEMENT. IT CALLS HAMAS TO ACCEPT A CEASE FIRE DEAL THAT WOULD SEE THE HOSTAGE FREED AND ON ISRAEL'S NORTHERN BORDER. THE IS INVOLVED IN SIGNIFICANT BATTLES WITH HEZBOLLAH. THIS WEEK ISRAEL HIT HEZBOLLAH WITH DOZENS OF AIRSTRIKES. ISRAEL'S DEFENSE MINISTER SAYS OVER THE COURSE OF THE WAR ISRAEL HAS KILLED MANY OF HEZBOLLAH'S TOP PEOPLE. HALF OF THE HEZBOLLAH COMMANDERS IN SOUTHERN LEBANON HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED. >> ARE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OFFENSIVE ACTIONS THE WILL TO HARM THE CITIZENS OF THE STATE OF ISRAEL. >> ISRAEL IN THE U.S. ADMINISTRATORS ARE STILL DEALING WITH THE PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES WHICH ARE SOMETIMES ANTI-SEMITIC AND PRO HAMAS. ONE DRIVING FACTOR IN YOUNG PEOPLE'S ANTI-ISRAEL SENTIMENT APPEARS TO BE ONLINE VIDEOS LIKE THOSE ON TIKTOK. VIRGINIA SENATOR MARK WARNER SPOKE WITH CBS NEWS ABOUT HOW THOSE POSTS OVERWHELMINGLY FAVOR THE PALESTINIANS. >> THERE'S BEEN INDEPENDENT ANALYSIS DONE THAT SHOWS ON TECH TALK AND THE AMOUNT OF PRO-PALESTINIAN POSTS ARE 54 TO 1 OVER PRO-ISRAEL. NOW ACKNOWLEDGED AMERICAN YOUTH MIGHT BE SPLIT 8020 PRO-PALESTINIAN BUT THEY'RE NOT SPLIT 54 TO 1. >> BUT CHRISTIANS SHOWING THEIR SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL. WORSHIP LEADER SEAN FOYT OTHER CHRISTIANS GATHER TO MARCH NEAR THE COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY THURSDAY EVENING. FOYT TOLD CBN'S BILLY HALLOWELL THEY CHOSE THAT LOCATION BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THE CAMPUS MOVEMENT STARTED BEFORE SPREADING ACROSS THE COUNTRY. >> SO WE WANT TO GO TO THE HEART OF WHERE THIS ALL BEGAN AND SAY ENOUGH, ENOUGH WE ARE RISING UP. WE'RE COMING TO BRING THE LIGHT . >> WE'RE COMING TO SAY WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE PUSHED AROUND AND WE'RE GOING TO JOIN WITH OUR JEWISH AND SISTERS AND SOMETHING. >> CHRIS JOINS US NOW JERUSALEM . SO CHRIS, WHAT ARE THE REACTIONS FROM THOSE IN JERUSALEM AS IT PERTAINS TO THIS RECENT SURGE IN ANTI-SEMITISM ESPECIALLY HERE IN THE U.S.? WELL, FIRST OF ALL, THAT THEIR HEARTENED BY GROUPS LIKE THAT BY SEAN I SAW ERIC METAXAS METAXAS THERE TO SUPPORT ISRAEL DURING THIS TIME IN THE JEWISH PEOPLE. OTHERWISE ISRAELI SHOCK AND ALARM ABOUT THIS. I TALKED WITH A FORMER STUDENT FROM COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY AND SHE DOESN'T RECOGNIZE THE SCHOOL SHE WENT TO ON THE U.S. SIDE, NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS OWNER ROBERT KRAFT IS STOPPING FUNDING TO COLUMBIA COLUMBIA. YOU KNOW I THINK YOU KNOW WHEN THEY HEAR SOME OF THESE EPITAPHS LIKE BURNED TEL AVIV TO THE GROUND HAMAS WE LOVE YOU WE SUPPORT HAMAS'S FIGHT YOU KNOW THAT THAT REALLY IS KIND OF A SHOCKING THING HERE IN ISRAEL PEOPLE HAVE A COLLECTIVE MEMORY ABOUT THE HOLOCAUST. MANY PEOPLE HAVE GRANDPARENTS OR YOU KNOW, SOME RELATIVES THAT WERE KILLED IN THE HOLOCAUST. SO THEY FEEL LIKE IT'S ALMOST LIKE NAZI GERMANY IN 1938. AND WHEN YOU HEAR THESE CHANTS FOR TERRORISM IN THE STREETS OF NEW YORK CITY AND CAMPUSES AROUND THE COUNTRY AS YOU REPORTED, ISRAEL IS PLANNING TO TAKE OUT HAMAS IN RAFAH. THE U.S. IS NOT IN AGREEMENT. NOW THERE WAS WORD SECRETARY OF STATE BLINKEN IS PLANNING A VISIT. WHAT CAN WE EXPECT FROM THIS AS IT RELATES TO RAFAH? >> WELL, FEMA IS EXPECTED TUESDAY. THAT'LL BE AT THE END OF THE PASSOVER HOLIDAY. HE WANTS TO MAKE SURE THERE'S A PLACE FOR GAZANS IN RAFAH TO GO BEFORE THE OPERATION BEGINS. I'M SURE HE WANTS TO GO OVER THE PLANS OF THAT OPERATION. SOME PEOPLE WONDER IF THERE WAS A QUID PRO QUO BETWEEN THE U.S. AND ISRAEL SO THAT ISRAEL WOULD DO A SMALLER ON IRAN EXCHANGE FOR SOME SORT OF A GREEN LIGHT BY THE INTO RAFAH. BUT I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT SOME PEOPLE TAKE A DEEP BREATH WHEN BLINKEN COMES HERE TO ISRAEL. THE REASON FOR THAT IS MANY PEOPLE FEEL THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WAR HAS REALLY TURNED ITS ON ISRAEL. I KNOW RECENTLY THERE WAS A GROUP OF AMERICAN FOR LEADERS I KNOW THAT'S IN THE US BUT THEY THEY EPITOMIZE WHAT SOME PEOPLE FEEL HERE IN ISRAEL. THEY SENT A LETTER TO PRESIDENT BIDEN WHERE YOU KNOW THEY BELIEVE THE U.S. IS HOLDING ISRAEL RESPONSIBLE FOR CIVILIAN CASUALTIES WHEN HAMAS IS REALLY ORDERING THEM AND TO STAY AND BE HUMAN SHIELDS. ALSO ACCUSING ISRAEL BLOCKING AID WHEN HAMAS COMMANDEERS THAT AID AND ALSO THEY THEY THEY ABANDONED ISRAEL AT THE U.N. SECURITY COUNCIL A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. SO THAT'S SORT OF THE SUM OF THE SENTIMENT HERE IN ISRAEL WHEN ANTHONY BLINKEN COMES HERE TO PAY A. >> CHRIS, HOW IS ISRAEL RESPONDING TO THE UNITED STATES AND OTHER COUNTRIES APPEAL TO HAMAS FOR THE RELEASE OF THE REMAINING HOSTAGES? WELL, I THINK IT ISRAEL SOME PEOPLE ARE SAYING WHAT TOOK SO LONG? 200 DAYS AFTER OCTOBER 7TH. YOU KNOW, CITIZENS FROM 17 NATIONS ARE CAPTIVE RIGHT NOW BY BY HAMAS AND AND YET THE WEIGHT OF NEGOTIATIONS REALLY FALLEN ON ISRAEL. THEY WANT PEOPLE TO PUT PRESSURE THESE NATIONS TO PUT ON QATAR. >> YOU KNOW, THIS IS THE ONE THAT REALLY IS MEDIATING BUT ALSO A SUPPORTER OF HAMAS AND ESPECIALLY THEY WANT THE U.S. TO PUT MORE EMPHASIS ON EIGHT AMERICAN HOSTAGES THAT ARE STILL IN CAPTIVITY. >> WHAT CAN WE EXPECT THIS EVENING ON JERUSALEM? >> DATELINE? WELL, WE'LL HAVE AN UPDATE STORY ON THE LATEST. WE ALSO HAVE AN EXCERPT FROM A POWERFUL INTERVIEW THAT AIRED YESTERDAY ON THE HUNDRED CLUB WITH GORDON ROBERTSON AND A SURVIVOR OF OCTOBER SEVENTH. WE'LL HAVE AN INTERVIEW AS WELL WITH RACHEL GOLDBERG. SHE'S MOTHER OF ONE HOSTAGE. WE'LL HAVE ANALYSIS WITH JOHN HAGEE ABOUT THE HOSTAGE SITUATION. AND FINALLY WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A VIDEO TWO STORIES ON THE PRIESTLY BLESSING AT THE WESTERN WALL DURING THE PASSOVER HOLIDAY AND ALSO A LITTLE BIT OF A CHOIR THAT GOES BACK 2000 YEARS. >> ALL RIGHT. CHRIS MITCHELL FROM, JERUSALEM, THANKS AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR INSIGHT. STAY SAFE AND KNOW THAT WE ARE PRAYING FOR YOU AND OUR ENTIRE STAFF THERE IN ISRAEL. WANT TO REMIND YOU AT HOME YOU CAN SEE THE LATEST FROM JERUSALEM DATELINE THIS EVENING ON THE CBN NEWS CHANNEL. IT BEGINS AT EIGHT EASTERN. YOU CAN ALSO WATCH IT ON THE CBN NEWS APP OR YOU CAN WATCH IT ON YOUTUBE. BACK HERE AT HOME BLOCKBUSTER CASE BEFORE THE HIGH COURT, AN ATTORNEY FOR DONALD TRUMP TRIED TO CONVINCE THE JUSTICES THE FORMER PRESIDENT CANNOT BE CRIMINALLY PROSECUTE FOR ANY OF HIS OFFICIAL ACTS WHILE IN OFFICE. THE COURT'S DECISION DETERMINE WHETHER AND WHEN THEY'RE SEPARATE WHEN THEY CAN SEPARATE. TRUMP TRIALS TO GO CAN GO FORWARD. THE JUSTICES DECISION WILL ALSO BE A MAJOR RULING ON THE SCOPE OF PRESIDENTIAL POWER. WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT KAITLIN BURKE IS ON THIS STORY. >> THE FOCUS OF THE JUSTICES QUESTIONS TO TRUMP'S LAWYER CENTERED AROUND HOW TO MAKE A DISTINCTION BETWEEN AND OFFICIAL ACTIONS TAKEN WHILE IN OFFICE. THE SPECIAL COUNSEL'S BRIEF ON PAGES 46 AND 47 HE URGES US EVEN IF WE WERE TO DECIDE OR ASSUME THAT THERE WAS SOME SORT OF IMMUNITY FOR OFFICIAL ACTS THAT THERE SUFFICIENT PRIVATE ACTS IN THE INDICTMENT FOR THE TRIAL TO GO FOR THE CASE, GO BACK IN THE TRIAL TO BEGIN IMMEDIATELY THE OFFICIAL STUFF HAS TO BE EXPUNGED COMPLETELY THE INDICTMENT BEFORE THE CASE CAN GO FORWARD. >> IF YOU EXPUNGE THE OFFICIAL PART FROM THE INDICTMENT, HOW DO YOU I MEAN THAT'S LIKE A ONE LEGGED STOOL, RIGHT? I MEAN GIVING SOMEBODY MONEY ISN'T BRIBERY UNLESS YOU GET SOMETHING IN EXCHANGE. >> ON THE QUESTION OF IMMUNITY . JUSTICE SONIA SOTOMAYOR POINTED OUT THAT THE FOUNDING FATHERS CONSIDERED THIS PROTECTION FOR PRESIDENTS AND DECIDED AGAINST IT. >> THEY HAD STATE CONSTITUTIONS THAT GRANTED SOME CRIMINAL TO GOVERNORS AND YET THEY DIDN'T TAKE IT UP. INSTEAD THEY THEY PASS AN IMPEACHMENT THAT BASICALLY SAYS YOU CAN'T REMOVE THE PRESIDENT FROM OFFICE EXCEPT BY A TRIAL IN THE SENATE BUT YOU CAN IMPEACH AFTER SO OR YOU CAN IMPOSE CRIMINAL LIABILITY. >> MICHAEL DREEBEN, THE ATTORNEY FOR THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT, EXPANDED ON THAT SAME ARGUMENT. >> THE FRAMERS KNEW TOO WELL THE DANGERS OF A KING WHO COULD DO NO WRONG. THEY THEREFORE DEVISED A SYSTEM TO CHECK ABUSES POWER ESPECIALLY THE USE OF OFFICIAL POWER FOR PRIVATE GAIN. >> DREEBEN ARGUED THE PRESIDENT DOESN'T NEED ABSOLUTE IMMUNITY BECAUSE LAYERS OF PROTECTIONS AND LEGAL SAFEGUARDS ARE IN PLACE. >> THE EXISTING SYSTEM IS A CAREFULLY FRAMEWORK. IT PROTECTS THE PRESIDENT BUT NOT AT THE HIGH CONSTITUTIONAL COST OF BLANKET IMMUNITY. THAT HAS BEEN THE UNDERSTANDING OF EVERY FROM THE FRAMING THROUGH WATERGATE AND TO TODAY. >> CONSERVATIVE JUSTICES QUESTIONED WHETHER SOME FORM OF IMMUNITY EXISTING SAFEGUARDS WOULD TRULY PROTECT A PRESIDENT AGAINST MALICIOUSLY MOTIVATED PROSECUTORS. >> THE VAST MAJORITY OF ATTORNEYS GENERAL AND JUSTICE DEPARTMENT ATTORNEYS ARE HONORABLE PEOPLE AND THEY TAKE THEIR ETHICAL RESPONSIBILITY SERIOUSLY. BUT THERE HAD BEEN RIGHT BOTH AMONG ATTORNEYS GENERAL AND AMONG FEDERAL. >> WE ARE NOT ENDORSING A REGIME THAT WE THINK WOULD EXPOSE FORMER PRESIDENTS TO CRIMINAL PROSECUTION IN BAD FAITH FOR POLITICAL ANIMUS WITHOUT ADEQUATE. A POLITICALLY DRIVEN PROSECUTION WOULD VIOLATE THE CONSTITUTION. >> IT'S UNCLEAR WHEN A DECISION WILL DOWN ON THIS CASE BUT IT WILL LIKELY BE END OF JUNE, EARLY JULY. >> CAITLIN BURKE, CBN NEWS, WASHINGTON.
