that left 42 palestinians and 7 israelis dead. the general arrived in the middle east. we have more from jerusalem. >> reporter: a flaming tire rolls through the israeli army lines. the occupied west bank city of hebron was on lock down after two stabbing attempts on palestinians by israelis. the palestinian witness to the aftermath recorded the first instance. israeli soldiers stands over a body. a white-clad palestinian looks on. israeli army says the man tried to stab the officer. an eyewitness told al jazeera by phone, she saw no knife and moments earlier had seen the settlers taunting the

palestinian. in another part of the city a female border police agent shot a palestinian woman dead after being attacked. >> during the morning shift a palestinian woman approached me at my post and asked me about a certain street. i told her i don't know of the street. she took out a knife and tried to stab me in the neck. i pushed her. and took out my weapon until she was neutralized clashes occurred in lebanon, a hub in the city. ambulance personnel said three youths were wounded by rubber bullets. >> in addition, israeli troops have been authorised to use live ammunition. around the same time protesters were confronting israeli security forces on the outskirts of ramallah.

alternatives. israelis see it as unprovoked violence, terrorism, directed against them. religiously inspired fury. palestinians are seen as gunning down palestinians in gold rp cold blood. they continue to fuel the conflict. in terms of where this is going, it will be hard, even with all the israeli security measures being put in place, to stop the attacks. i think the danger is that there'll be revenge attacks, retaliation by settlers, and that, in turn, increases the violence. the tipping point could come if organized palestinian groups, if hamas jihad, if they get involved in directing the attacks. at the moment they've been spontaneous, lone wolf attacks. if palestinian armed groups start sponsoring them. we'll see a greater level of

violence. a sustained amount of violence. >> what role is the u.s. playing in clamping up of this down? >> the us has little ability to clamp it down. i think the u.s. will go in, and telling them to tone down their rhetoric, they have been involved in heated matters, binyamin netanyahu blaming mahmoud abbas, and they making statements about israeli responsibility. in relation to the leaders, that's the primary role. the leaders are not totally in control of the situation. this is something coming from the street. the u.s. is starting, is not going to be listened to because of palestinians in east jerusalem, they don't listen to

>> it's the only campaign in canadian history where each of the major parties have been in first or third in the opinion polls, which is unprecedented. >> the main parties are conservative, led by bookish stephen harper, who has been prime minister almost 10 years, running on a low tax, family values and tough security ticket. >> on a good day you get to go home feeling you have lived up to the job. >> it's time for a change in the country. the liberal party headed by justin trudeau. whose good looks are attracting attention. the style has been borrowed from president obama in 2008. real change now. >> this is canada. >> justin is the son of canada's famous prime minister, bee air elliott. oven in the tabloids for a playboy lifestyle. he was considered, but some see

him as the second lacking authority of the father. >> >> movie reel: for many years i fight for the right... >> there's a lot of people that would rather have a no nonconservative candidate. he is benefitting a huge amount from that. even where people don't have their minds made up about them. and there's an ndp. this is a high-profile candidate. ch is olivia, the party hasn't held office. the party's best known for helping to create the universal health care system. >> my plan is built to last. the campaign centered on tory leader. harper, the second-longest serving prim. he's alienated many canadians. 60% wanting him gone, for

overstepping his powers. particularly among muslims. they endorse the conservatives. but in a bizarre twist. it said it's time for harper to go. as things stand. the polls are on course for a majority government. conservative harper is in favour of the pipeline and for the trade deal, putting them at odds with a democratic future in the white house. justin trudeau said he would pull the planes, bombing i.s.i.l. targets in the middle east. >> joining me from toronto is a political analyst and consultant. we appreciate your time so much. canadians go to the polls. beyond the obvious question of which name they check off, what

question is top of mind for most of them? >> i'm sorry, i think we heard it earlier on, which is who is best poised to replace the government. over two-thirds of canadians are looking for change in ottawa. i think that is what has been driving the campaign. earlier on we had the ndp leading in polls. people are assuming they'd be the favourite to win. as momentum built. that vote started to coalesce behind him, as did anyone but the conservative vote. >> with the way the polls have been changing, do you feel it is anyone's race? >> i'm really do, and the polls nationally tell a story where the liberals are anywhere between six and 8% above, but the way the writing is split out. every person that ends of electing a member of parliament.

the way it works out, the liberals have a lot of ready support, and the conservatives have higher support in rural areas. it will work out to their advantage. it will come down to who gets out the vote strategy itself. >> what role has social issues and religion played in this election so far? >> you know, this election was supposed to be a lot about leadership and the economy. yes, you are right. it ended up being more or less about values and identity issues. and we have seen - the harper conservatives tried to put up the issue wark a niqab, in the public service, in the citizenship service. it ended up backfire. they had an uptake of support, and you have canadians that support taking the citizenship

out. it ranks loi in the priority list in terms of voters. ultimately justin trudeau seized the moment, and reminded canadians of their values, what kind of country it wanted to be. and what is happening. >> here in the united states we had social issues, but it comes town to the circumstances of the economy. what is that like as well. >> it is. ultimately. i would agree with that. however, this agreement is special only because the vast amount of canadians looking for a change, and any government would be hard pressed to pask for a fourth mandate. i do tend to gree, it's about the economy. this election is a little special, and i think we are looking for a change. more than the economy. >> how important is the voter turn out. who in particular will benefit

from a high voter turn out? >> the opposition. both the ndp and liberals benefit from a high voter turn out. they released some data, and the advanced polling has seen over 60% in increased turn out as opposed to the last election. what we call the millennial or cell phone generation, they turn up to vote, it could be disastrous for election day. >> thank you for the insight. we appreciate it. >> thank you for having me. >> all right officials at vw conceded that the scandal could cost their jobs. the biggest automaker is considering cutting workers reporting lower card deliverings. they are considering working shorter hours.

there. >> reporter: in theory a passer-by can record anything. san francisco has policies about the rights of onlookers to record the police. this officer showed us what he considers the proper distance. if i cross over... >> if you approach me, it's too close, because i have to deal with you. >> reporter: how and when should a driver go for his phone? >> the issue is so knew, no guidelines have been established. >> if the situation is calm, and you want to the record it, absolutely, you can do so by holding the phone with your hands visible. >> my phone is in my pocket. i'd like to record this encounter. >> i have the video going. i'm looking to make sure there's no weapon. >> in cases where reaching for a phone doesn't cause an officer to go for his gun, the phone can become a target. >> at what point can you take

away the phone. >> if a person is cited for interference, if there's any evidence, we could - we can request it or seize it. >> they are not certain what you should do. >> i have left it up to him. i mean, i have looked at different options. if i were to record, i'd probably put some type of hidden camera in my car. again, because it's not a set law, they can do what they want on this week's episode of "third rail", ali velshi sits down with a former ambassador and middle east negotiator, and they discuss the israel palestine conflict. here is a preview of tomorrow night's episode. >> other like other intifadas, i'm not intauling it a inty forwarda, this doesn't have the same feeling of organization. >> absolutely, it doesn't have

organization, and you can say that's the good news, that's the bad news, without organization, it means you don't have the same means to address it. you'll have to find a way to create a conflex where those doing society doesn't make sense. they have to have aens of what you lose and what can be gained. >> when you look at a situation, you look at all the years you've been involved in the negotiations, and now you have mahmoud abbas very weakened. he has not held elections, and we know what will happen, his party may not win, hamas may win, and the negotiations get trickier, don't they. >> they do. what you are raising is legitimacy. you can conduct negotiations in a context where they have
