5:46 5:48 Hamas and brought up the need for
5:48 5:52 humanitarian Aid to civilians in
5:52 5:55 Gaza the incremental nature of diplomacy
5:55 5:57 is up against the clock none of us uh
5:57 6:00 want to see suffering by civilian on any
6:00 6:02 side whether it's uh in Israel whether
6:02 6:05 it's in Gaza as US Secretary of State
6:05 6:07 Anthony blinkin shuttles between Israel

6:20 6:22 sure that to the best of our ability
6:22 6:24 this conflict is not spread to other

6:28 6:31 military Aid to allow Palestinian
6:31 6:33 Americans and other refugees to flee
6:33 6:35 South through the only non-israeli exit
6:35 6:38 they are in the war zone they have

6:41 6:43 into human
6:43 6:45 Shields Israel has told civilians to
6:45 6:47 leave gaza's city but with limited time
6:47 6:50 and no clear exit the United Nations has
6:50 6:52 said the order is impossible to carry
6:52 6:54 out we're all working to get Egypt to
6:54 6:58 open its border uh so that the innocent
6:58 7:00 the innocent can and be
7:00 7:02 saved now the Egyptian foreign minister
7:02 7:04 said this afternoon that it was Israel's
7:04 7:07 fault blaming problems at the border
7:07 7:08 saying the checkpoint is inoperable due
7:08 7:11 to damage that has been inflicted on the
7:11 7:14 Gaza side of the operation Robert
7:14 7:16 Christina rafini thank you tonight the

7:36 7:38 Israel's military action in the Gaza
7:38 7:41 Strip here in Washington supporters
7:41 7:42 rallied in the rain across from the
7:42 7:45 White House in Lafayette Square bordered
7:45 7:48 by walls and fences controlled by Israel
7:48 7:49 some human rights groups have called
7:49 7:52 Gaza quote the world's largest open air
7:52 7:56 prison we get more from cbs's Ian
7:56 7:59 Lee the conflict between Israel and Gaza
7:59 8:01 has its roots in
8:01 8:04 1967 when Israel captured the narrow
8:04 8:05 Coastal strip from Egypt during the
8:05 8:08 6-day war resistance to Israel's
8:08 8:11 occupation led to the First Palestinian
8:11 8:13 Uprising known as an inata and the birth
8:13 8:14 of
8:14 8:17 Hamas the fighting Ended as the 1993
8:17 8:20 Oslo Peace Accords brought hope of peace
8:20 8:23 with a future Palestinian state but
8:23 8:25 frustrations led to a second even more
8:25 8:29 bloody inata in 2000 it ended in 20 5
8:29 8:32 coinciding with Israel's withdrawal from
8:32 8:35 Gaza leaving it to be ruled by the
8:35 8:37 Palestinians the following year
8:37 8:39 Palestinians angry with their
8:39 8:41 government's corruption handed Hamas an
8:41 8:44 electoral Victory but rival fata Israel
8:44 8:46 and the United States rejected their
8:46 8:49 rule that same year Hamas kidnapped
8:49 8:51 Israeli soldier gilad chalit who would
8:51 8:53 eventually be exchanged for more than a
8:53 8:56 thousand Palestinian
8:56 8:59 prisoners in 2007 Hamas seized control
8:59 9:02 of Gaza during a civil war with fata the
9:02 9:04 following years would see sporadic
9:04 9:06 violence and major
9:06 9:09 Wars but invading Gaza by ground is
9:09 9:11 something Israel has only done twice
9:11 9:15 Israeli forces entered cities in 2009 to
9:15 9:17 stop rocket attacks and weapon
9:17 9:21 smuggling then in 2014 Israeli forces
9:21 9:23 led a shallow incursion capturing
9:23 9:25 territory along the Gaza border to
9:25 9:28 destroy smuggling and attack
9:28 9:31 tunnels every violent Outburst ended in
9:31 9:33 negotiations but never addressed the
9:33 9:36 underlying cause of the conflict sowing
9:36 9:38 the seeds of the next round of fighting
9:38 9:41 subsequent US presidents tried with
9:41 9:43 varying degrees of effort but failed to
9:43 9:46 bring peace through a two-state solution
9:46 9:47 Nations that support a two-state
9:47 9:49 solution and an independent state for
9:49 9:52 Palestinians my continued support even
9:52 9:54 though I know it's not a near term and
9:54 9:55 two-state
9:55 9:59 solution a Palestinian state was never a
9:59 10:00 major priority for Israeli Prime
10:00 10:03 Minister Benjamin Netanyahu it's never
10:03 10:05 been about a Palestinian State it's
10:05 10:09 always been about the Jewish
10:09 10:12 State the Palestinians have also
10:12 10:14 rejected peace deals in the past Robert
10:14 10:16 which leads us to this latest round of
10:16 10:19 fighting because in the absence of Peace
10:19 10:22 there will be War Ian Lee thanks last
10:22 10:25 weekend surprise attack by Hamas has put
10:25 10:27 Israel's intelligence and Security
10:27 10:29 Services in a harsh spotlight but even
10:29 10:31 as militants fired thousands of rockets
10:31 10:34 at Israel there was safety from above
10:34 10:38 cbs's David Martin has more on the Iron
10:38 10:41 Dome an American Transport plane
10:41 10:43 unloading Munitions at an Israeli
10:43 10:45 Airfield American defense secretary
10:45 10:48 Lloyd Austin walking the tarmac in a
10:48 10:50 show of personal
10:50 10:52 support among the most critical items
10:52 10:55 interceptors for the Iron Dome air
10:55 10:57 defense system which has kept the death
10:57 10:59 toll in Israel from going even higher
10:59 11:01 we're surging additional military System
11:01 11:04 including ammunition and interceptors to
11:04 11:06 replenish Iron
11:06 11:08 Dome we're going to make sure that
11:08 11:09 Israel does not run out of these
11:09 11:11 critical
11:11 11:13 assets Iron Dome has been defending
11:13 11:16 Israel against terrorist rockets for
11:16 11:19 more than a decade it has been um
11:19 11:22 effective as it typically is in taking a
11:22 11:24 lot of those Rockets out of the sky and
11:24 11:26 saving countless lives by doing now now
11:26 11:28 of course some Rockets have gotten
11:28 11:31 through uh to to tragic cost because the
11:31 11:34 flight time for a rocket is so short
11:34 11:37 Iron Dome can operate on
11:37 11:39 automatic as soon as a rocket launch is
11:39 11:41 detected an alert goes out telling
11:41 11:44 everyone to run for shelter while Iron
11:44 11:47 Dome launches its interceptors homing in
11:47 11:50 only on Rockets headed toward populated
11:50 11:54 areas so it doesn't have to fire 4,500
11:54 11:57 interceptors to shoot down 4,500 Rockets
11:57 11:59 no a significant fraction of these
11:59 12:00 Rockets are not going to hit anything
12:00 12:02 vital retired General Frank McKenzie
12:02 12:04 former commander of US forces in the
12:04 12:07 Middle East says Hamas doesn't really
12:07 12:09 care where the Rockets land they've got
12:09 12:11 a large stockpile of missiles and I
12:11 12:14 think we should anticipate the intensity
12:14 12:16 of these attacks to continue for a few
12:16 12:19 days yet an Israeli invasion of Gaza
12:19 12:21 could eliminate the rocket launchers but
12:21 12:24 another terrorist organization hez Bala
12:24 12:26 is based in Lebanon on Israel's northern
12:26 12:29 border and has an estimated stock pile

14:15 14:17 expensive with no insight into the
14:17 14:19 revenue per subscriber or anything it
14:19 14:22 just felt uh like a very like a bridge

5:46 5:48 Hamas and brought up the need for
5:48 5:52 humanitarian Aid to civilians in
5:52 5:55 Gaza the incremental nature of diplomacy
5:55 5:57 is up against the clock none of us uh
5:57 6:00 want to see suffering by civilian on any
6:00 6:02 side whether it's uh in Israel whether
6:02 6:05 it's in Gaza as US Secretary of State
6:05 6:07 Anthony blinkin shuttles between Israel

6:28 6:31 military Aid to allow Palestinian
6:31 6:33 Americans and other refugees to flee
6:33 6:35 South through the only non-israeli exit
6:35 6:38 they are in the war zone they have

6:41 6:43 into human
6:43 6:45 Shields Israel has told civilians to
6:45 6:47 leave gaza's city but with limited time
6:47 6:50 and no clear exit the United Nations has
6:50 6:52 said the order is impossible to carry
6:52 6:54 out we're all working to get Egypt to
6:54 6:58 open its border uh so that the innocent
6:58 7:00 the innocent can and be
7:00 7:02 saved now the Egyptian foreign minister
7:02 7:04 said this afternoon that it was Israel's
7:04 7:07 fault blaming problems at the border
7:07 7:08 saying the checkpoint is inoperable due
7:08 7:11 to damage that has been inflicted on the
7:11 7:14 Gaza side of the operation Robert

7:34 7:36 Palestinians calling for an end to
7:36 7:38 Israel's military action in the Gaza
7:38 7:41 Strip here in Washington supporters
7:41 7:42 rallied in the rain across from the
7:42 7:45 White House in Lafayette Square bordered
7:45 7:48 by walls and fences controlled by Israel
7:48 7:49 some human rights groups have called
7:49 7:52 Gaza quote the world's largest open air
7:52 7:56 prison we get more from cbs's Ian
7:56 7:59 Lee the conflict between Israel and Gaza
7:59 8:01 has its roots in
8:01 8:04 1967 when Israel captured the narrow
8:04 8:05 Coastal strip from Egypt during the
8:05 8:08 6-day war resistance to Israel's
8:08 8:11 occupation led to the First Palestinian
8:11 8:13 Uprising known as an inata and the birth
8:13 8:14 of
8:14 8:17 Hamas the fighting Ended as the 1993
8:17 8:20 Oslo Peace Accords brought hope of peace
8:20 8:23 with a future Palestinian state but
8:23 8:25 frustrations led to a second even more
8:25 8:29 bloody inata in 2000 it ended in 20 5
8:29 8:32 coinciding with Israel's withdrawal from
8:32 8:35 Gaza leaving it to be ruled by the
8:35 8:37 Palestinians the following year
8:37 8:39 Palestinians angry with their
8:39 8:41 government's corruption handed Hamas an
8:41 8:44 electoral Victory but rival fata Israel
8:44 8:46 and the United States rejected their
8:46 8:49 rule that same year Hamas kidnapped
8:49 8:51 Israeli soldier gilad chalit who would
8:51 8:53 eventually be exchanged for more than a
8:53 8:56 thousand Palestinian
8:56 8:59 prisoners in 2007 Hamas seized control
8:59 9:02 of Gaza during a civil war with fata the
9:02 9:04 following years would see sporadic
9:04 9:06 violence and major
9:06 9:09 Wars but invading Gaza by ground is
9:09 9:11 something Israel has only done twice
9:11 9:15 Israeli forces entered cities in 2009 to
9:15 9:17 stop rocket attacks and weapon
9:17 9:21 smuggling then in 2014 Israeli forces
9:21 9:23 led a shallow incursion capturing
9:23 9:25 territory along the Gaza border to
9:25 9:28 destroy smuggling and attack
9:28 9:31 tunnels every violent Outburst ended in
9:31 9:33 negotiations but never addressed the
9:33 9:36 underlying cause of the conflict sowing
9:36 9:38 the seeds of the next round of fighting
9:38 9:41 subsequent US presidents tried with
9:41 9:43 varying degrees of effort but failed to
9:43 9:46 bring peace through a two-state solution
9:46 9:47 Nations that support a two-state
9:47 9:49 solution and an independent state for
9:49 9:52 Palestinians my continued support even
9:52 9:54 though I know it's not a near term and
9:54 9:55 two-state
9:55 9:59 solution a Palestinian state was never a
9:59 10:00 major priority for Israeli Prime
10:00 10:03 Minister Benjamin Netanyahu it's never
10:03 10:05 been about a Palestinian State it's
10:05 10:09 always been about the Jewish
10:09 10:12 State the Palestinians have also
10:12 10:14 rejected peace deals in the past Robert
10:14 10:16 which leads us to this latest round of
10:16 10:19 fighting because in the absence of Peace
10:19 10:22 there will be War Ian Lee thanks last
10:22 10:25 weekend surprise attack by Hamas has put
10:25 10:27 Israel's intelligence and Security
10:27 10:29 Services in a harsh spotlight but even
10:29 10:31 as militants fired thousands of rockets
10:31 10:34 at Israel there was safety from above
10:34 10:38 cbs's David Martin has more on the Iron
10:38 10:41 Dome an American Transport plane

10:55 10:57 defense system which has kept the death
10:57 10:59 toll in Israel from going even higher
10:59 11:01 we're surging additional military System
11:01 11:04 including ammunition and interceptors to
11:04 11:06 replenish Iron
11:06 11:08 Dome we're going to make sure that
11:08 11:09 Israel does not run out of these
11:09 11:11 critical
11:11 11:13 assets Iron Dome has been defending
11:13 11:16 Israel against terrorist rockets for
11:16 11:19 more than a decade it has been um
11:19 11:22 effective as it typically is in taking a
11:22 11:24 lot of those Rockets out of the sky and
11:24 11:26 saving countless lives by doing now now
11:26 11:28 of course some Rockets have gotten
11:28 11:31 through uh to to tragic cost because the
11:31 11:34 flight time for a rocket is so short
11:34 11:37 Iron Dome can operate on
11:37 11:39 automatic as soon as a rocket launch is
11:39 11:41 detected an alert goes out telling
11:41 11:44 everyone to run for shelter while Iron
11:44 11:47 Dome launches its interceptors homing in
11:47 11:50 only on Rockets headed toward populated
11:50 11:54 areas so it doesn't have to fire 4,500
11:54 11:57 interceptors to shoot down 4,500 Rockets
11:57 11:59 no a significant fraction of these
11:59 12:00 Rockets are not going to hit anything
12:00 12:02 vital retired General Frank McKenzie
12:02 12:04 former commander of US forces in the
12:04 12:07 Middle East says Hamas doesn't really
12:07 12:09 care where the Rockets land they've got
12:09 12:11 a large stockpile of missiles and I
12:11 12:14 think we should anticipate the intensity
12:14 12:16 of these attacks to continue for a few
12:16 12:19 days yet an Israeli invasion of Gaza
12:19 12:21 could eliminate the rocket launchers but
12:21 12:24 another terrorist organization hez Bala
12:24 12:26 is based in Lebanon on Israel's northern
12:26 12:29 border and has an estimated stock pile
