arrives in afghanistan ahead of the presidential folks. thank you for joining us one of the most powerful people in the white house is out of a job national security advisor john bolton insists he resigned but u.s. present donald trump says he was fired because of disagreements over foreign policy bolton was known as a hawk who wanted the u.s. to take a hard line stance against countries like iran venezuela and north korea alan fischer has more from washington and you're going to do a fantasy job of it appreciate you i thought there had been growing divisions between john bolton to his course but the end was brutal even by the standards of this white house donald trump tweet saying i informed john bolton last night that his services are no longer needed at the white house i disagree strongly with many of his suggestions as did others in the administration. therefore i asked for his

resignation which was given to me this morning bolton tweeted not the usual thanks for being able to set but an insistence he quit rather than being fired at a news briefing at the white house which bolton was initially listed to attend stephen secretary of state mike pompey defended the president's decision the president's entitle to the staff that he wants at any moment a staff person who works directly for the president of states and he should have people they trust and values if there were many times in basketball that i disagree that's to be sure but that's true for lots of lots of people who with whom i interact john bolton was donald trump started national security advisor the longest serving so far but with his stated positions of using military force in iran and north korea he was annoyed fit for a president whose isolationist america 1st policy wanted to reduce the u.s. military footprint reason only told him was against talking to north korea against pulling u.s. troops out of syria and against the president's latest idea of inviting afghanistan's

taliban to peace talks at camp david that seems to have been the breaking point we have seen from this and from every other firing that what he really wants are people that echo what he already wants to do and with bolton's opposition gone there could be obvious changes for example that there's a better chance the president will meet with his a really encounter part president made very clear is prepared to meet with no preconditions before he became president donald trump considered john bolton for the role of secretary of state but ultimately decided against it because he felt he didn't look the part mainly because of his mr bush now after 18 months as the national security advisor john bolton once again finds that his face doesn't fit alan fischer al-jazeera at the white house. arab countries have condemned a campaign pledge by israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu to the occupied west bank they say his plan would violate international law that's now said the trump

administration so called dean of the century would provide a historic opportunity for expanding israeli sovereignty over the west bank and other areas faso has more from. benjamin netanyahu has a habit of promising dramatic announcements in the run up to elections and he did so again on tuesday when it came it was not a unilateral decision about amec sation as some had predicted instead the message to right wing settler voters was a vote for netanyahu would in concert with the trumpet ministration mean extending israeli sovereignty to all illegal settlements in the occupied west bank and in the shorter term the amec sation of the jordan valley yes. there is one place where it's possible to apply israeli sovereignty immediately after the election if i receive a clear mandate to do so from you the citizens of israel in recent months of little diplomatic effort in this direction in recent days the conditions for this have ripened today i'm announcing my intention to apply with the formation of the next government israeli sovereignty on the jordan valley and nor going to see the jordan

valley represent some 30 percent of the occupied west bank and some of its most fertile agricultural land israeli policy has long been that it needs to retain control there for national security but the prospect of a unilateral israeli annexation is netanyahu is promising would explode any faint remaining hopes of a viable palestinian state alongside israel giving palestinians and there's a small towns and villages as prisoners without any freedom that is a war crime and as about as we are about to enter the 74th session or the general assembly of the united nations that a national community must stand now. to see a big no and to stop hitting israel as a country above the laws of man at the united nations there was further condemnation such a prospect would be devastating to the potential of reviving negotiations regional peace and the very essence of a 2 state solution but there is

a hugely important caveat to all this to enact his plan then you know 1st times to win the election then create a right wing coalition government that would in dorset and then push it through in the face of international pressure and by then and intensifying battle against his own corruption charges israelis have heard him talk an extension before without following through once a point political opponents and political analysts were making even before netanyahu had finished talking this is electioneering at its best there is no connection between what the prime minister said today and what's going to happen after the election whether he's elected or not this is what i like to say is israeli elections are very much like las vegas and hotels in las vegas what happens during israeli elections stays in israeli elections. later at another campaign event in southern israel netanyahu was briefly rushed from the stage sirens sounding the israeli military said rockets had been fired out of gaza a dramatic end to a day when whether he makes good on it or not he confirmed his position as one
