islam is a problem and matter but i've been found so wash of us and overall do north wales and a good. singer contribution was to ask hundreds of questions on the other side to really understand what what this would mean how p.l.o. would treat this what would be their them as a counterpart they i think felt it was quite offensive in one way to be interrogated like that men women are still it after middle how two are the most often in from an article it is a do when i was alone as your. father not far when we have the man of the world who is rootless too far of a know isn't good enough look at the. joy of i don't matter and my food. and money. were less worthless didn't your lawyer joel singer acted as a legal advisor to the israeli ministry of defense following his first meeting with

the palestinians he headed to vienna to meet paras two and bill is going back form of dinner and your wakes up and he looks at him and i say you're. foreign minister if we don't make an immediate deal with these people we are complete complete idiots. five months later in july nine hundred ninety three in the resort of how visible singer presented be amended declaration of principles document setting out the details of palestinian autonomy. it's clearly stated that autonomy wouldn't include the settlements military zones or jerusalem and that israel would remain in charge of security and the protection of settlers. so what you're saying or did he deconstructed it made it into

a document with the legal aspect the palestinians one should understand were shocked because suddenly all things that they were saying but they were afraid to see them were black and white and it was a tough day for them. the palestinian delegation saw all the serious implications of singers document and so returned to cuba to confer with the p.l.o. leadership our father wanted to enlarge the jericho area into the jordan river so he would have certain hold on his relationship with jordan. and that was quite an argument on certain sorties of the council etc. and like you never negotiations comes the end game the end game was conducted by also going to tunis tunis cloaking feel no more i'm fair and

argue for you. can use. a bomb on a. lee here palomino hardily of food out of a photo held of sun down and be. done in a while the most who are fairly who are judged done or could barely be. sore and you know it was very very useful then to that to to have the opportunity to discuss these issues also directly with arafat and and we were then sort of also able to communicate that and to do this well off these meetings with our part. last one you went back to jerusalem to the whole israeli team i'm told this for at least everything arafa pop star. and even

a letter written by hall just said look you know i looked for a letter i think eleven pages for a minute from the meeting giving the letter on the minutes word by word. of arafat's opinions where he thought he can help something or lose something all this was given to describe this it was more sort of a judgment on where the palestinians. in particular where on. sort of the whole idea reaching in agreement on the organ holes was a very mush of writing and he all of us who wrote singh said he wrote almost everything himself i mean working for him was very difficult working without a realist every ghezzi here every time when they went to meetings in the first thing on the plane he sat down and he wrote down his impressions and so so that was

the ways that oh he worked so he was very much a personal letter. so this letter was handed to mr paris at that time yeah yeah. extracts of these letters later appeared in personal memoirs but no official record of the contents has ever been found in the norwegian foreign ministry. the environment doesn't know any boundaries what goes up into the environment goes around the world. pesticides are pushed on drums that it's a very modern way to do plumbing and we've made poisons the measure of progress. the domestic population has become organized enough an active member of your us to earn their dues or you will feel more vulnerable circle of poison on al-jazeera . this is

a really fabulous news for one of the best i've ever worked in there is a unique sense of bonding where everybody teams in but something i feel every time i get on the chair every time i interview someone we're often working around the clock to make sure that we bring events as i currently as possible to the viewer that's what people expect of us and that's what i think we really do well. in recent years the sawhill of north africa as witness the so-called war on terror. but is this official narrative. masking a larger battle. a battle for the earth's natural resources. shadow war in the sahara on cultures.
