>> mike some different tones from kerry and netanyahu, and criticism from netanyahu that it's the palestinians that are being obstructive. >> the palestinians will argue strongly at their meeting with john kerry as far from crisis being artifical the chri crisise real and center around the netanyahu government and center on plans of the netanyahu government to build a separation wall at. jordon that will keep them away from their at the three. three--territory. this is going to be disputed and heatedly rejected by the

palestinians. there is another issue brewing in resent days, there has been discussion in the israeli parliament about the issue of granting no you. jewish access to the sacred sanctuary. and this is something that the palestinians warn is mo potentiy explosive. even by the stormy standard of debate this meeting stood out as rowdy. and a discussion in a parliamentary committee is the issue of whether jews should have free access to pray on one of islam's holiest sites. jewish prayer has u always been allowed at the western war, but not on the haram sharif itself.

in the past the status quo was largely challenged by an extreme fringe of the israeli row will i greligiousright. now it's a matter of mainstream political debate. fused together of the coa coalin government are members of the settlest's movement to gain free access to the temple mount. >> it's the most important place. the temple mount is the holiest place in the no jewish row list. remission. religion. but to allow the prayer it would bbe apoor right of act.

the israeli hoye cour high cours refused to decide it i it's a ah right. 13 years ago former prime minister insisted on walking on the site of the boil h. while he didn't stop to pray it was an action that sparked the inat thainterinterfa da. but should the israeli prime minister continue to listen to his police and block moves to introduce new laws he could face the collapse of the coalition government that keeps him in power. >> and medulla oblongatt mike ty the former leader was found not

guilty on corruption charges. how is that likely to impact ime peace talks. lieberman has not played any role in talks about peace. right now the minutes te at mins justice is taking part in the peace talks. if there is any development within these talks, then the some stage at israeli government is likely to have to sign off on it. lieberman's position backing that government for foreign minister is likely to add a own more hard line position within the government and within the government. remember that lieberman is himself a settler and a strong proponent of settler activity and would certainly describe

himself as no friend of the palestinians. >> now an exclusive report from a democratic republican of congo where soldiers are celebrating the doug diet defeat of m-23 re. malcolm webb has been with the military at the last base. >> they should m-23 are finished. the game is over. after days of heavy bom bombardt the rebels fled of this soldier claims he took this rawanda army majoritbadge from a rebel's uni. this one is from rawanda and

malcolm webb in the democratic republic of congo. what does this mean for the dnc? felipe, i want to touch on three issues. let's start first with rwanda's possible involvement. if we can we saw in malcolm webb's report thaa soldier that is holding up evidence that rwanda was participating. rwanda has been supporting congolese rebel moves and have created some rebel movements from 1996 to today of there is no question about their involvement through weapons and actual operations of thea army.

rawanda has denied this, but it's been accepted by the international community. and reports by anecdotal efforts. >> the m-23 will not the only rebel group in this conflict. how will they deal with the other conflicts. >> that will be the problem as m-23 has disappeared. the congolese government and also the u.n. peace keeping operation will have to tackle all of the other non-stay groups operating in the region. also rebel groups from uganda r from rawanda. >> this ithis is going to be a h moment and it will take quite some time. it's essential that it should be

with five the highest. the en winds will cause a lot of damage and as well as that we'll have a storm surge and a lot of rain as well. that area of wet weather will work it's way across us an by friday some of us would have seen over 300 millimetres of rain and some places as much as 500 millimetres of heavy rain. that will cause a final problem with flooding. and then that system is going to work's way to ve vietnam. and vietnam has had heavy rain over the last three days. and right now we are watching a tropical depression making it's way over the seven part of the country that is giving us heavy rain and there is still more to come in the next few days. the area will stay wet on thursday a and on friday. it slowly desintegrates as it

going to be a difficult call. >> yeah, on one hand the israelis and i believe also the palestinians are very cynical. look this is his eighth trip and this is happening after the second round of what you just described as confidence building measures and both taken by the israelis and palestinians under pressure. from the israeli side the second round of releasing terrorists and the palestinians call freedom fighters. prisoners that were sentenced to life after targeting israeli civilians. >> an and at the same time the construction of new units in the occupied territories i can

hardly believe that kerry and president obama are able to just turn a blind eye to a stalemate in the peace talks and be remembered in history as an administration who just put back into the west bank, hundreds or dozens of prisoners and giving legitimacy to the construction of thousands of units. i believe he has invested too much american political chips can, presidential chips in this process that he cannot just say, well sorry, i tried, but it didn't work. and let me try somewhere else. i mean is there a feeling that kerry has to come away with something from this trip? there are reports that kerry might propose some kind of interim deal. let me ask you, what would that deal entail. it won't address the core issues

jeruselem refugees. it has to be a third party and there is a prize now. and the prize that kerry is putting forward is an american embarrassment. that the americans have failed, as i mentioned they just gave legitimacy to the settlement pro project and the release of prisoners and got nothing out of it. what kerry is doing here when he comes here again and again, putting a higher and higher price for the american failure and nobody, not netanyahu are willing to pay the price. and the a at the end of the dayf this fails, what they are going to see a year from now is palestinians states rec night 'noiserecognizedby the u.n. >> thank you very much for your time. a international court in hamburg has gun hearings
