"inside story." ♪ ♪ >> this is al jazeera america. live from new york. i'm adam. the emergency meeting at the u.n. after dozens of palestinians torched a jewish holy site at the west bank. an united front, the u.s. and south korea have a warning for north korea about its nuclear program. and how to turn kne nuclear
7:01 pm
energweapons out of nuclear power. not even scientists know how it's done. >> the palestinian ambassador a peeled to the consul asking for international protection for worshipers at the sacred temple mount in jerusalem. a disagreement over access to that mosque is really what is fueling this recent violence. israel's new ambassador has rejected an international force at the site, and they're accusing palestinian president abbas of inciting the attacks. >> in the face of the commitment
7:02 pm
to the two-state solution. it under scores how critical it is to achieve two states layoffing side by side in peace and security. >> in the last two weeks' loan 39 palestinians have been killed and seven israelis have been stabbed to death. and earlier this morning a jewish holy site was torched in the west bank and they're calling the events at joseph tomb an act of desecration. >> yes, as you rightly say there has been a whole sore series of developments police say the palestinian attackers carried out that incident.
7:03 pm
there will were no immediate reports of injuries or substantial damage to the tomb. you cannot go torching religious sites here and not expect that to lead to more retaliation incidentally that identity is a holy site not only for jews but for muslims and for christians. there were other incidents in hebron where a palestinian man disguised as a press photographer stabbed an israeli soldier at a checkpoint before being shot to death himself. clashes broke out about 20 minutes from here. let's take a look at this report. >> rain on the streets of bethlehem.
7:04 pm
a new generation rises up to an age-old complaint--israeli occupation. >> you can't do anything here. >> protesters wield sing shots against one of the best-armed militaries in the world. >> this started as a grassroots reas a result after years of peace talks protesters accuse their own palestinian leaders of failing to win an independent homeland. this is our revolution. we don't need another leader for our revolution. >> friday marked the latest
7:05 pm
round of clashes. the scenario is much the same. there is a certain level of coordination. this is the first line of defense. their role is to try to stop israeli troops pushing deeper in the neighborhood. when it gets too hot to hold here they'll fall away and let others take up the defense. >> this is one of the core issues fueling the current violence. israeli security forces banned muslim men from taping friday prayers from the al aqsa mosque compound. so they pray on the streets. this is a religious war. they want to still our rights from the holy place. they want to steal the compound, he says.
7:06 pm
the israeli government denies it wants to alter longstanding political agreement on control of what it calls temple mount. but the distrust is almost genetic. even prayer time brings little peace. israeli police started to move in. they went into the crowd and detained one palestinian man. now they bring in the police horses to make sure that the crowd disperses. back in bethlehem. the fight rages on. they all resisted and were continuing to do so, our children will pre-assis will resist as well. who knows how long, perhaps until we die. words of defiance but little sense of hope.
7:07 pm
>> i think just looking at today's eventually it is quite clear that this current wave of unrest has it's religious components. it has a political component, and also the component that it is a fight that has been handed down from generation to generation. that's what makes it so complex. that's what is going to make it so tough to resolve. >> well said, carl. it's amazing to see you there on the front line of those protesters. a simply slingshot that you might pick up at a discount store. we know this has been in the works for a while. but officially john kerry secretary of state will be meeting with prime minister benjamin netanyahu. what chances are there to stop this current wave of violence? >> it all very much defense. we don't know exactly, but we know that kerry is going to meet
7:08 pm
with netanyahu. we expect the talks will go along with the president of the palestinian authority ma mahmood abbas as well. but i'm not sure that that will do much good because a lot of the protesters say this no longer trust the palestinian authority their representatives, their leaders to actually represent them. they're not listening any more. if is very much a grass rods movement. so the palestinian authority may not be able to control the palestinian. and this report is genetic. whatever prime minister benjamin netanyahu says will be distrusted by the palestinians and of course his own cabinet has shifted radical towards the right. even on the domestic front the room for maneuver may be limited as well, adam. >> all right, live for us in
7:09 pm
jerusalem. thanks so much. well in turkey they're saying they shot down a drone. turkish warplanes destroyed the drone as it continued on its trajectory after three separate warnings. the drone was non-military, but u.s. officials believe that the drone was of russian or je origin. well, as many as 2,000 fight freers hezbollah and iran may now be backing syria's offensive in the northern city of aleppo. this is according to a senior military source that is on the ground. the offensive is receiving air support from russia. it has carried out 390 strikes in just the past week. it has reached an agreement with the u.s. on flight safety issues over syria.
7:10 pm
the president met with his south korean counterpart and north korea's nuclear weapon's threat is very high on the agenda. what was the message about paining it' nuclear weapons sandy. >> the two presidents were united in saying they would not accept north korea as a new englannuclear state. it comes as they might be preparing to launch a missile into space as a test or to conduct a nuclear test. and even though the president was very tough in talking about north korea, he also left the door open to possible future
7:11 pm
negotiations with leader kim jong-un. >> as my administration has shown, we're prepared to engage nations with which we've had troubled histories. but jung-un needs to understand that it will not achieve the prosperity it seeks as long as it continues. >> south korea's president said that they need to come on board and help contain north korea's nuclear ambitions. the united states is a little concerned about the contact with china because it appears to be fueling some reluctance on the part of south africa to accept an u.s. missiles system. the thad system.
7:12 pm
these are missile defenses designed to shoot down north korean missiles in the boot phase. something that the united states would like to put there to counter the threat. south korea has been reluctant partly because china is opposed to the di the deployment. nevertheless, the president said that there were no cracks in the relationship and that it was as strong as ever. >> i want to bring into conversation jim walsh joining us from massachusetts. good to have you with us once again. i want to touch on what jamie was speaking about. how concerned should the u.s. be about senate office building's relationship with china? >> well, i think it's to be expected. essentially the united states and south korea are married. we have a treaty alliance. this citizen as high a level
7:13 pm
that they have, we're on the same team because the u.s. is irreplaceable for south korea in terms of providing for defense. but you know, south korea lives in the neighborhood and we don't. china is a rising power. certainly a big economic power and south korea sees in its interest if it has good relation it is may help with new york. it is always going to be a balancing act, but in the end of the day the most important issue is security and for that they'll always depend on the united states. >> we want to turn it back to you on another point. the president said that he's open to negotiations. but have the negotiations broken agreement to disarm their nuclear program. >> yes, in 1994 there was framework agreement in which the north koreasens were supposed to shut down for food and aid.
7:14 pm
north koreans shut down one program and started a secret program at the same time. by the time that the united states knew what was going on, it was too late for them to stop. now the best estimate the number they have is between 10 and 20. there is no evidence that north korea's leader kim jong-un is interested in giving up nuclear weapons. it's the one thing that it has to make other countries take it seriously. >> jim, do you agree with that? >> i do agree. i've been to north korea. i've studied north korea for 15 years and met a lot of north koreans. they've said a lot of things over time. the nuclear weapons are the few things that they have as an asset that gives the weak country some leverage. one year they say they'll give
7:15 pm
them up. the next year they'll pass a constitutional amendment requiring that we own them. i never say never with north carolina. yo--north korea. you never know what is around the corner. we'll stay on this path, but i don't rule out that at some point in the future some things might change. but i don't see it immediately. >> i want to ask you about these continued threats of rocket launches, something that i think is quite concern to go many americans when you hear the headline north korea testing a missile that possibly reach the u.s. speculation that there is going to be another rocket launch. >> it's comical. one day th there they're moving things around. the next day they're not going to test. there is a lot of anticipation
7:16 pm
that they were going to engage in some nuclear might test but it did not happen. the fundamentals have not changed. they have the capability of creating a test. it may not be today. it may not be next month, but i think we all have an expectation that they'll test something at some point in you future. it's going to happen. but predicting it turns out to be a very difficult business. >> thanks so much for your expertise. >> thank you. >> presidential candidate hillary clinton is preparing to testify. but today evidence was held behind closed doors. many democrats and now some republicans say the decision to hear from her, the aide at the state department was really
7:17 pm
nothing more than a move to derail clinton's campaign. she's currently serving as the campaign vice-chairman for hillary clinton. a cleveland mother's call for justice after her 12-year-old son is killed by police. >> i have had many sleepless nights and days. almost a year now, no justice, no peace. >> up next, the change she says needs to take place in the case of her on son dying. plus drivers stuck in the mud for hours in california. while scientists say mudslides like this one could soon be a lot more frequent.

bad >> ajubadi was arrested new year's day.
7:22 pm
he allegedly hit his girlfriend and broke the deputy's nose. but the fiancé had asked for help asking for help for ajubadi who was suffering from a manic disorder who suffers from bipolar. >> they arrested a man who was in college and snuffed out his life without telling us anything. this needs to be the focus point of how we as a community not just to them but america will not stand for treatment by law enforcement like this. rabbit way. al jazeera, atlanta. >> the mother of a 12-year-old boy shot and killed by a cleveland police officer near a year ago said she wants a special prosecute for take over the investigation. the plea comes nearly a week after local prosecutors released extra reports that called that

7:26 pm
melt and wood gave away. >> when i got there, there was a lot of dust. it was really scary. it was very scary knowing that there are people working on the scaffolds and knowing that it all fell down. it's just really sad, and it's really scary. >> it's a huge effort to try to ask everyone. 100 firefighters responded. officials saying tonight that the workers injuries are not life threatening, and the cause is still being investigated. the u.n. security council calling an emergency meeting to try to keep the violence between israelis and palestinians from spiraling out of control. and harnessing the power of the atom for both military and civilian use.
7:27 pm
7:28 pm
7:29 pm
world leaders are condemning actions on both sides of the dispute. over the last two weeks alone, 39 palestinians and 7 israelis have been killed.
7:30 pm
disagreements over access to al aqsa mount is fueling a lot of the silence. kristen saloomey is at the white house now. >> welcoming comments were prime minister benjamin netanyahu that there would be no changes to al aqsa mosque. but he criticized the response. >> if there is an international presence around al aqsa mosque in order to guarantee that the status quo to be maintained, i think that that is what is in the minds of members of the security council that is in our grind the facts speak for themselves. for decades israel has
7:31 pm
maintained the status quo and will continue doing so. let me be crystal clear. israel will not agree to any international presence on the temple mount. such a presence would be the change in the status quo. >> now there were many calls from the security council members to end violence and end provocative acts. but now there seems to be little appetite for implementing the monitoring force that the palestinians have been talking about. >> that's kristen is saloomey at the u.n. always good to have you with us. what do you make of the u.n. security council meeting thon issue now. the violence has been going on for a couple of weeks now. why are they taking it up now. >> well, it's gotten to the point up to 37 palestinians
7:32 pm
killed versus the 7 israelis killed, has gotten out of hand. the nature of shooting other people who are not necessarily demonstrating has caused people to feel that the world has to step in. the leadership cannot control the people who are doing the fighting. the people doing the fighting are mostly young men jewish zealots and extremists fighting each other because they have different reasons to do it. but the palestinians are occupied, and the situation is out of the control of the leaderships. therefore you need international intervention of some sort. >> i want to jump in here on that point. you raise an excellent point. if the plo has no control over the situation right now, where do we go from there? who is there to negotiate with, and talk to try to get both sides to find some peace?
7:33 pm
>> it's not really the plo we have to focus on but it's the israeli side. it's the israeli who is are shooting them and who have the larger numbers. they're the one who is are so colonizing on the land. what the security council can do is address the underlying issue, which is the occupation. address the immediate situation which is to stop the fighting and address the path out of the situation because this has gone on for 47 years now. almost half a century. there has to be an international intervention for negotiations to finally resolve this conflict. >> even a senior u.n. official would blame the occupation as really fueling this long simmering problems there. but here you do have burnings of a holy site. you have israelis being stabbed. that's not really a peaceful
7:34 pm
protest and reaction to that. >> well, it's a cycle of violence by both sides. it doesn't make sense morally or select actually. they're both using violence. there are different kinds of violence. the solution is to break that cycle, not to ask the victory to protect the occupier. >> let's talk about that. breaking the cycle. what options does the u.n. security council really have at this point? >> well, it has a moral function and a political security and peacekeeping security. the moral function is to raise these issues in integrity in full honesty to the world. what is the underlying problem? it's the israeli occupation. they have the political power to find the political resolution to live in peace in their israeli majority state, which they chose to do, and we palestinians recognize that they have a right
7:35 pm
to do while the palestinians have the same right to live in their state, sovereignty and security. the council can take steps. some of them symbolic, some of them practical. to bring in third-party mediators who are more effective than the americans, who have failed in 20 years of mediation. build a coalition of interested parties around the world to mediate, and to talk to both sides. there is a lot that the security council can do if it has the desire to do so. and i think we're reaching the point now where really we need international intervention beyond the failed american approach. >> quickly, there has been no doubt of a failed american approach, they've been unable to bring both sides to the table once again, you have secretary cech meeting with netanyahu.
7:36 pm
what does he say? >> i don't think he has much power or influence and the will, really, of the--the american system does not have the will to pressure israel very much. they talk with them. cajole, bargain, give them more weapons, give them more in, more that. but there has to be a concerted effort just beyond. they have proven to be rather ineffective at the diplomacy and politics. the americans can play a role. they can be part of an international effort that has much more credibility. >> and we'll have to leave it on that note. thanks so much. we'll leave it on that note. thank you for your perspective. >> turning now to the war in afghanistan and the follow of president obama's decision to keep u.s. troops on the ground.
7:37 pm
in response the taliban is vow to go ramp up their attacks on the government in kabul. many afghans are skeptical. >> a man wounded in the fighting but killed in the u.s. airstrike on the doctors without borders hospital. >> we don't need america to send their forces here to protect us. we demand that the united states stop supporting the taliban and others who fight us. >> the sentiment is the same. these residents know that afghanistan problems well. taliban fighters held their city for three days. afghan forces needing u.s. air and ground support to battle them. >> instead of leading thousands of forces here, the americans should equip our own forces, and
7:38 pm
they should be equipped with modern weapons. >> the united states is helping build an afghan air force. but it takes years to train pilots and technicians. on the battlefield the afghans still rely on u.s. air support. afghan president welcomes the troops here. the taliban said that it will be an expensive war in terms of finances and casualties and asks to eggs at the point u up attacks on the targets. >> people are fleeing the country and in the past 13 years that america was here what have they done to help us? now they keep more troops in afghanistan. i don't think it will happen. it's for their own interests. not ours. >> the mullah of the mosque said that the u.s. decision to stay
7:39 pm
is in part because the taliban chose not to cop to the peace team and chose to fight instead. >> we should have worked for the peace process, then there would be no reason for foreigners to stay in this country. >> u.s. forces will be staying until 2013 in four bases around the country. many ache begans say they are convinced that such a small number of u.s. soldiers can make a real difference in ending the violence here. jennifer glasse, al jazeera, kabul. >> the u.s. officially accused iran of violating sanctions. the u.s. ambassador to the united nations samantha power said that iran's ballistic test last weekend was, quote a clear violation of u.n. sanctions. now since the missile was capable of delivering a nuclear weapon, the test comes just as iran oklahomaed the historic nuclear deal with the u.s. the one that ends iran's nuclear weapons program in exchange for lifting economic sanctions. president obama said that the
7:40 pm
nuclear deal does not change the way the u.s. thinks about missile chest violations. under the accord iran keeps it's civilian nuclear program, it's quite controversial, and some feel that it could be repurposed for military goals. jake ward explains that would be harder than you might think. >> the power to split the atom is the greatest power humans have ever commanded. it can fuel our civilizations or it can destroy us all. but knowing how to create nuclear energy is not the same as knowing how to create a nuclear weapon. >> i don't know how to do the rest of the separation. i don't know how to do the construction. i don't know how to make the explosion happen, bu. >> rachel slaybaugh, who just joined the faculty at berkeley said that she wouldn't know
7:41 pm
where to begin. >> the most detailed knowledge i have is from a tom clancy novel. >> in the united states weapons research gave birth to nuclear energy. and they remain linked. the facility that uses a powerful laser to set off energy reactions is the world's best hope t to achieve fusion. but these experiments are part of our nuclear weapons program. the fund something mostly missile. but the potential for energy production is huge, and other countries, they're all building facilities like this that has a felt pumps but hold incredible promise for the future. we had to submit to a background check and a very thorough inspection of our vehicle just to get inside here. that's because they have the
7:42 pm
materials to make nuclear weapons elsewhere in this facility. the united states has always mixed together military and civilian nuclear research. is it fair for us to ask another country to keep them separate? >> the nuclear energy program in the united states grew out of the nuclear weapons program. that came first. >> he helped find evidence of iraq's nuclear a ambitions. >> you could see stuff covered under tarps. we went back the next day and it had been trucked away. that's the last time we failed to pursue hard and hot. >> he said a peaceful program in iran is possible under the u.s. agreement because military activities are easy to spot. >> if you never enrich uranium above 3% and never enrich plutonium from a fuel rod to a reactor, you're not headed to a
7:43 pm
weapons program. >> an engineer after working in europe, created his country's weapons' program. perhaps the best long-term solution is a system in which countries would buy nuclear fuel from abroad rather than making it at home. >> so country x only buys fuel exposes and generates power and sends the fuel back somewhere else to be taken care of. if you could drive the world that way, there is a long list of countries that would be perfectly happy to have nuclear power. >> nuclear power means adapting an ugly double standard. the partnership created the science and that partnership remains strong in our country, but it's a partnership we decided we cannot tolerate elsewhere in the world. jacob ward, al jazeera, california. >> well, coming up first it was
7:44 pm
cecil the lyon and now the killing of another animal is bringing outrage. we'll show you one of africa's largest and oldest elements poached.
7:45 pm
7:46 pm
>> well, crews in los angeles are still digging up hundreds of cars trapped in the mud after a landslide trapped motorists last night. here is al jazeera's report.
7:47 pm
>> stranded motorists in california had to trudge through a sea of mud to get help. they were stuck for more than four hours on a mountain pass. the grapevine known to millions as a gateway between central and southern california had come to a standstill. >> all we saw was a mountain of boulders and dirt and stuff coming right for us, and it pretty much lifted my car up, and spun us around like it was nothing. >> dozens of rescuers were sent out to help stranded motorists. california is now preparing for what would you climatologist is calling a godzilla el niño. it is expected to be the strongest since scientists began keeping records of it in 1950 about. >> the waters off the coast of southern california are already 4 degrees warmer than they should be. all the moisture has evaporated
7:48 pm
from this warm water. think of it lasting longer and falling more heavily. >> the last significant el niño weather pounding california with relentless rain happened 18 years ago. two dozen people were killed. dozens of houses were destroyed and thousands forced to evacuate their homes. the 1997 and 1998 el niño cost half a billion dollars of damage. back then state officials said only a quarter of the population took weather warnings seriously and few bought disaster supplies and preparation. >> what is difficult is that we're starting out from a position of extreme drought. this is the most extreme drought in california's recorded history. what that means is that soils are really dry. it means that we've seen a lot of tree death. we're having wildfires burning a lot of forest.
7:49 pm
all of those continues on the surface make for greater potential of flooding and greater potential of problems with excess water. >> los angeles county wants people to be ready for more flooding, mudslides and downed trees and black outside. scientists believe that el niño could help alleviate california's water shortage, but california would need several years of heavy rains before the golden state's aquifers ar are are replenished. >> this elephant is the largest elephant shot in africa in 50 years. it was killed upside of a park in zimbabwe, just like ce cil.
