truly believes that the decision the united states has made. to recognize your islam is the capital of israel or we believe we'll set the table for the opportunity to move forward in a meaningful negotiations. while palestinians in the occupied west bank striking in the protests again pensive speech on monday shops have closed in the streets and generally empty pence a balance to the israeli parliament that the u.s. embassy will open in jerusalem by the end of next year let's get more on this visit now we're joined by cos bond and harry force that is live for us in occupied east jerusalem how is all of this being covered where you are harry. well for mike pence in terms of his and his host's reaction it's really a bit of a victory lap today after the main event that speech to the knesset on monday he's

had as you heard warm words from the president riven rivlin during that speech he called mike pence a mench a man of honor and integrity and the two men had more sort of very warm relations during that time and then he will go on to the holocaust memorial at yad vashem pay his tribute there alongside the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu before coming without any israeli officials to the western wall to offer prayers there as far as that the coverage is concerned that it is overwhelmingly positive as far as the jewish israeli press is concerned one. analysis of the speech really talked about waiting for the bus to come waiting for the other shoe to drop waiting for some kind of if not criticism of israel at least friendly advice or talk of settlements talk of what israel needed to do in terms of negotiations with the palestinians there was none of that it was an incredibly pro

israeli speech using brute biblical language at many instances and really one which has been hugely well received by especially administration of benjamin netanyahu so given all of that harry where does this leave the palestinian for being the same place that they were following donald trump's speech. largely yes they are they have already said in the days after that speech that they would not be viewing united states as any kind of mediator or sponsor of any peace process going forward so that remains unchanged but the house that has been cemented by the sheer tone of this visit and the speech we heard from side erica the charity x. is ecu committee of the house and house the liberation organization in a statement said. that says attitude and language should be necessary nick that he was just confirming that as far as the policies were concerned donald trump and mike pence were part of the problem not the solution for what harry thank you very

much for that for now that's harry force that joining us with the latest from occupied east jerusalem thank you. but to the u.s. now where politicians have agreed on a compromise that ended the three day government shutdown but the immigration dispute at the heart of the crisis is still to be resolved specifically what will happen to young on undocumented immigrants who have been protected from deportation under the deck a program on the less president dollar trump is taught in the stop gap to go as a victory for his party tweeting big one for republicans as democrats cave on shutdown now i want a big one for everyone including republicans and democrats and dhaka but especially for our great military and border security should be able to get there see you at the negotiating table behind the show castro reports from washington d.c. . kicking the can down the road the phrase used to describe the now familiar practice of the us congress delaying the problem solution for another day

the motion is adopted with that objection a motion to reconsider is laid on the table on monday the house and senate voted to reopen the federal government until february eighth that buys lawmakers three weeks to agree on a more permanent budget plan this is not a moment of better selves in the back not even close we very much need to heed the lessons of what just happened here. we need to move forward in good faith. but faith between the two parties is lacking particularly on immigration that issue was the source of the shutdown stalemate as democrats demanded protections for so-called dreamers young undocumented immigrants brought to the country as children and republicans refused monday's compromise as a concession from democrats to reopen the government under intense public pressure while accepting a promise from republicans to address immigration later we have not yet protect their create just young dreamers not only should we protect them we should embrace

them value them we should be grateful for the inspiration they are to america all our important work for the american people had to be put on hold while this manufactured crisis was dealt with we made no something to progress and i want to err on the serious bipartisan negotiations. to solve issues such as immigration and border security health care defense spending and many other matters come tuesday federal offices will reopen hundreds of thousands of government employees will return to their jobs and a sense of normalcy will return to washington after three days of chaos but the difficult job of negotiating a more permanent solution to immigration and to the budget will just be beginning weaving the country wondering whether another stalemate is just around the corner
