peace agreements with israel in the last 72 years this is the 2nd peace agreement that we've announced in the last month and i am very hopeful that there will be more to follow i can tell you there's tremendous enthusiasm on behalf of other countries to also join and we think ultimately you'll have most countries join and you can have the palestinians. in a very good position they want to come in they're going to want to come in because all of their friends are in. well the palestinian leadership has recalled its ambassador to bahrain it's also released a statement saying it considers the step extremely dangerous as it blows up the arab peace initiative quote it says it rejects the move and calls on the kingdom to of bahrain to immediately backtrack due to the enormous harm it causes to the inalienable rights of the palestinian people and hamas which rules gaza says that

normalizing relations with israel makes bahrain a partner an aggression against the palestinian people. this deal is a danger to the palestinian cause and our national security this is a new political good state done by bahrain it supports the occupation and it supports those honest right wing the ration the rain should hold back immediately it's a huge political scene. let's get more us now from our white house correspondent kelly how case of course for president trump the timing of this agreement is crucial. absolutely this is a president looking to try and score political points particularly with the supporters he's counting on for helping him win a 2nd term in the u.s. election in november with the support for israel particularly is something that many of donald trump's supporters want to see he has been steadfast throughout his term and this is the latest manifestation of that seeing these agreements between

now by rain but previously the u.a.e. and israel this is accomplishes a number of things not only does it allow the president to win points with his supporters but it also pushes for alliance if you will a regional ally is that he says will provide prosperity security namely for israel as he tries to get this coalition together of arab nations with israel towards iran of course the u.s. president railing against iran since he took office and continuing to do so so this is really something the president is trying to do in light of the fact that he is also struggling in the polls against his democratic rival joe biden and also given the fact that many americans are angry with him for his handling of covert 19 that has resulted in millions of americans losing their jobs and feeling very nervous going into this u.s. election so what we've seen from this u.s. president is a series of promises that he has he believes delivered on but if you look more

closely what hasn't been delivered on in all of this is the so-called deal of the century of that it promised that would allow for peace between the israelis and the palestinians and so the president is claiming that he's had a peace deal in some success when really that one in and of itself is a failure the other one that we should point out in terms of foreign policy is the fact that just yesterday the u.s. president also pronounced that he had ended the so-called endless wars that the united states is involved in he is withdrawing some truce. but certainly there is still a significant u.s. footprint in nations such as iraq syria and afghanistan so this is a president to put on positive headlines and control the news cycle advance of the november 3rd vote but as some of these deals face more scrutiny as we expect will be the case with these latest agreements in advance of that signing on tuesday that there will be further questions about what exactly has been accomplished thank you

very much from the white house can really help get. well out of there as harry force it is following a story from west jerusalem he says the agreement will provide a bit of a boost for prime minister benjamin netanyahu political standing after several tough months this 2nd deal in less than a month gives nothing the real capital in terms of his domestic status as well because israel is in the grip of an out of control 2nd wave of crude a virus pandemic there has been a great deal of criticism of the government's handling of it we're looking at a nationwide very severe lockdown when he gets back from washington they've been some criticism of his decision to leave the country for such a signing ceremony in the midst of all that so having a 2nd deal done just the u.a.e. deal but also this bahrain deal to sign and celebrate in washington is something that that he will look to very favorably and it's something that he also says will

be of real benefit to the israeli people. who. the pivot towards peace we're about to read another story of peace between israel and the arab state the kingdom of bahrain this follows the story of peace between israel and the united arab emirates we've been working on this for many years but we wouldn't come to this historic moment without the forceful leadership of president from and is able to him a course that has been one concession if you want to call it that which is the suspension the putting on ice of his annexation plans in return for these kinds of normalization deals for benjamin netanyahu he says very much as a vindication of his attempt to really put the palestinian issue to one side say it really doesn't matter we can move ahead with international relations and firmer ties without solving that long running conflict and need to ever hand has more on

the palestinian reaction now from ramallah in the occupied west bank. palestinians are saying that even when the u.a.e. deal with israel has boosted that it has put annexation on the ice with the time being it's really practices on the ground are ongoing so for example operation hasn't ended and the beheading the statement of the normalization agreement today is that it not he didn't give anything to the palestinians so they feel that they've been left out alone against what the arab league's previous resolutions were in its specific the arab peace initiative which calls for the normalization between arab states and israel but only after israel and its occupation now the palestinian president has recalled the palestinian ambassadors to beheading we've seen a similar move to the. with the u.a.e. find its deal and of course the fear now among many palestinians is that there at the u.a.e. is the deal has been

a green light really 2 or more arab states to normalize with israel and we've heard also many palestinians saying that for years they've been seeing the u.s. the israeli lawyer in the region that that is really no partner but now they see it as israel's agent specifically saying that because trump is the one who has been announcing these deals of normalization between me and you. and israel on the other hand well in all the top stories today the afghan government and taliban negotiators are heading to capital for a long delay talks which began on saturday it's more than 6 months since the u.s. brokered a deal aimed at ending america's longest war for his appointment in 2016 donald trump pledged to end the conflict and he's hoping to cash in on that promise before the election in november secretary of state white pompei o is attending the inauguration event. mike how difficult this conversation will be among the m.p.'s but it's theirs for the taking it's their country. to figure out
