survivors. all 157 people on board, an different ways. first, there are the looming ethiopian airlines flight, were indictments announced by killed when the boeing 737 went israel's attorney general. down shortly after takeoff this he said that mr. netanyahu would be charged with bribery and morning. so how does a brand new airplane breach of trust. flown by a senior pilot with an then there are bibi's political excellent flying record suddenly headaches. mr. netanyahu has publicly courted the support of far, far crash into the ground? we'll talk to an aviation right parties in israel. he's believed to be going to the expert. plus, it's another busy day for the 2020 presidential extremes on his right flank, because he has a formidable ho challenger on his left flank, benny gantz, former israeli army chief. mr. netanyahu faces an uphill battle in next month's election. joining me now from israel, tal schneider, political correspondent for the globe's newspaper. let me ask you, how serious are these charges, and what is the likely course? because we've been hearing about them for a while. but this is it now. this is the formal charge.

>> obviously, the charges are very grave. bribery is up to ten years in jail. and as you may know, bribery in public officials is a very grave indictment. and netanyahu is up for indictment. obviously, there was another procedure in which he may come to the attorney general and claim, you know, some claims forward. but having said that, the fact that the attorney general has made up his mind and also put the charges on is very, very serious, and it's -- i think it's hurting his situation. it's hurting his campaign. not entirely. but it has an effect on the israeli people. >> mr. hasan, what one looks at this, there have been so many charges about mr. netanyahu and there have been so many accusations of corruption and, you know, some of them he has been cleared of. but there is this swirl of charges about it. is it -- i mean, does the party

feel this is not worth the controversy? >> no. we believe strongly that this is a political persecution. let's make clear in the numbers, netanyahu since 1997 had to deal with 19 investigations, accusations, allegations. 16 out of 19 of them ended up with nothing. and we truly believe that during the hearing, and these are the processes you have in the hearing before the trial, netanyahu will tear down all those allegations. >> let me ask you, tal schneider, on the political side, you do have benny gantz. seems to be gaining ground. and historically, when one looks at martin indyk pointed out -- when one looks at the prime ministers, they tend only to lose out to popular generals who are able to put together a left of center coalition, which is exactly what benny gantz has done. >> okay.

so the polls are showing that benny gantz is actually leading on the prime minister. and also he has a good job performance polling that's saying that he has an ability to serve as prime minister. netanyahu hasn't faced anyone that strong for a decade. netanyahu's campaign is claiming they are lefties and weak, and the israeli public, when they see a chief idea, i don't think they take it as someone who can be portrayed as weak or, you know, wimpy or too lefty to liberals. it's not working with the generals. so that is netanyahu's main problem. his campaign slogans are aimed towards the right wing, but his unwilling or he's not even trying to grab some more center israeli population. and he sticks to his right wing, like you mentioned at the beginning. he doesn't even try to convince the center. >> ellie, if the left is looking for generals, bibiis going pretty far right, looking for

support. he has gone so far right that he has -- he has been denounced by many, many previously strong supporters in the united states. i think even apec has expressed dismay over this latest move. isn't it a sign of a kind of amorality that he will just go anywhere to try and find allies? >> no, not at all. you have to understand that we are quite concerned about the establishment of a left wing government in israel. we wanted to increase the chances in order to win. of course, we respect the criticism of the people, especially from apac, but they have to understand that this is either a right of big government or left wing government. and i want to remind one more thing. we are concerned about left wing government that will be supported by those who support terrorism. and that is the equation for us. >> all right. we will surely come back to the issue. thank you both. >> thank you.

now for our "what in the world" segment. masses of young people have flooded the streets of algiers to protest the regime of an aging president who despite having had a stroke in 2013 is seeking his fifth term in office. the tensions in algeria are not isolated. they symbolize the problems. algeria's president is so ill, the times notes, his framed photo replaces his actual presence at most government rallies. that is an apt metaphor for his rule, little more than a front for the cabal of generals and politicians that reels power behind the scenes. in marked contrast to their leader, over two-thirds of

algeri algeria's people are under 30 and have a right to be angry. the figure rises for college graduates, according to bloomberg. as was pointed out, the dynamics extend throughout the region. there are mass protests that threaten to topple the brutal regime. the tunisia president is 92. the palestinian president is 83. egypt's sisi is a spritely 64, but muscled through parliament a constitutional amendment that could keep him in power until 2034, at which point he will be 80 years old. even when the leaders themselves are not long in the tooth, their regimes are still relics, often brutal and woefully out of sync with the people they serve. and those people are overwhelmingly young. the median age across the region

is just 24. in the early otts, the middle east had the highest proportion of young people in the world. even now, there are isolated baby booms. iraq is growing by 1 million people a year, and almost 40% of its population is 14 and under, according to the ft. but all these young people are coming of age in economies that seem to have no place for them. as a region, the middle east and north africa has the highest rate of youth unemployment in the world, estimated around 25%, according to the imf. and the u.n. notes that by 2030, the region's work force will have 39 million more young people to absorb. those who can, are leaving, excluding the wealthy gulf country's net migration, 8.4 million between 2000 and 2015, according to brookings. what's driving the dynamics? when oil prices fell, government

was forced to rein in spending and cut jobs in the public sector. as mark lynch notes in the "washington post," in the past two years, sporadic protests often sparked by some economic malaise have broken out from algeria to iran, morocco to iraq. so with all this, i'll ask the inevitable question, are we seeing the next arab spring? it's far too early to say, but if we were to see massive protests, it would be a mistake to assume that would translate to full-fledged democracy. around the world, autocrats do tend to win acquiescence from their people, as long as they deliver prosperity. but most arab leaders provide no democracy, no growth, no social mobility, nothing. and with lots of young people, especially young men, angry their lives are not improving, this is a dam that could one day burst. next on "gps," tick tock do you hear the sound, prime minister may?

the clock is ticking louder and louder. the brexit deadline is almost here and the british parliament holds a key vote on tuesday. what will happen, when we come back. to look at me now, you don't see psoriasis. you see clear skin. you see me. but if you saw me before cosentyx... ♪ i was covered. it was awful. but i didn't give up. i kept fighting. i got clear skin with cosentyx. 3 years and counting. clear skin can last.

bizarre path, what seems to many people to be a bizarre path, you know, when you write a history of this 20 years from now, what will you say? what is the explanation here? >> well, if you want the meta explanation for why brexit has -- seems to have completely crashed the british political system, i think you need to look really carefully at the torrey party. this was a party that was really one of the most important leading political forces in the world. through the 1980s, even the 1990s. and yet in the last several years, it's experienced something like a crisis of confidence, where is it going, what's it for, is it just a technocratic party. and i think brexit looked to a lot of people in the party like an opportunity to be once again radical, and to once again cutting-edge. unfortunately, they weren't really prepared intellectually or in any other way.

the country wasn't prepared bureaucratically to carry this out. and so what you have is a paralysis, which is really extraordinary. the country -- spanish politicians said to me a couple of days ago, you know, this was the country we looked up to. this was -- you know, this is the country that is the mother of parliaments, the most competent politicians. people who knew what they were doing. and suddenly they seem really unable to move beyond this vote that, as you say, we have now had once. we're going to have it again. we may have it a third time before we're done. >> george osborne, you were at the center of that crisis that anne applebaum describes with the tory party, your prime minister decided against holding a referendum. is anne's critique correct? my amplification of it would be probably you were dealing with the reality that tony blair had moved the labor party away from a kind of hard left socialism, taking over some of the center ground that ttories used to hav

so they had to find some place to go that was sharp, rad dahl, different, so it didn't feel like there was this mushy middle between tony blair and david cameron's centerism. >> well, i would add to what anne says, and your characterization, fareed, by making a couple of observations. first of all, britain is an island off the continent of europe, whose entire history has been defined around this question of our relationship with our near neighbors. and second, like many other western democracies at the moment, we are wrestling with that question of some sovereignty and control versus globalization and collective global action, which, of course, rages as a debate in the united states. and in having a referendum, we enabled a group to emerge, as you said, look, if we're in control of our laws and in control of our borders, we can stop immigrants coming in and

britain can be economically stronger. the reverse is the case. britain is already economically weaker, and we haven't left yet. and i think what you're seeing over the next few days is, again, that promise of brexit colliding with the reality of brexit. and when faced with that, either you compromise and accept that you told the british people a set of things that were not deliverable, or you go on refusing to do that, and the kind of political crisis continues. and i would say the political crisis continuing is the most likely option. there are other options. and the most likely outcome of all these votes that we're about to have in the british parliament is once again to delay. it's not heroic. but it's the one thing that most people can agree on. >> anne applebaum, do you agree with that? it seems to me theresa may is playing a game of chicken, saying i'm going to take you as close as we can get to the

deadline, and then you face two options. either we just plunge off this cliff or you accept my muddled, negotiated soft brexit. >> yes. i think the trouble is that there are a lot of people who have now talked themselves into believing it would be better to plunge off the cliff. and we've had a very odd -- politics in the last few weeks have been very odd, where at one point the government was saying, well, you know, no deal is better than a bad deal. and now they've quickly reversed and said no, actually, we want to avoid no deal at all costs. and i'm told people in the government are briefing senior business people in london and telling them don't worry, we're going to avoid doing that. so, you know, it's an even weirder story. you know, in which they put forward one policy. they back pedal as they discover it doesn't work. they put forward another one. and then change that. there's still no clear plan. we still don't really know what theresa may will do. will she let the country slide towards no deal, although it's

been promised otherwise? or will she try to prevent it? i mean, it's not so much a game of chicken. it's kind of flailing, trying one plan, trying another plan, just to see if anything can stick. >> george, it seemed until maybe very recently that there were healt healthy majorities in the british parliament against everything. that is to say, against a hard brexit, against a soft brexit. and against a second referendum. is -- you know, are the odds of a second referendum creeping up? is it possible with labor party now saying they're in favor of it? that you could have the thing that tony blair has been advocating from the start, which is to say to the british people, look, you've now had a chance to really think about this. do you really want it? >> i think, as i say, before we get to that point, if we get to it, the thing that most people are going to agree on is let's put off this difficult question. i mean, for many years, as the

country's finance minister, i saw the greek euro crisis firsthand, and i was in plenty of meetings where i felt we have to reach a decision and then the decision at 3:00 in the morning is, let's meet again in six months' time. so although it is the legally mandated position in the law of this country and in the international treaty with the eu that we leave in three weeks' time, which is what's causing a lot of disturbance, obviously, amongst the businesses of this country, as they have to plan for that contingency, the only way to stop it is to find a majority for something else. there is a majority for something else. it's not clear what. and that's why i think people will coalesce around the delay option. because those who either want a second referendum, those who want a softer form of brexit, or norway-style brexit, they're all going to find that the one thing they all agree on is that a delay would suit their cause. and that's why i think a delay opens up -- personally, i don't think it's a bad thing.

i think allowing the country to continue to consider the biggest question it's faced probably since the second world war is a good thing. clearly, there is not a majority in this country for any one clear course of action. and so that is what i think is most likely to come out of next week. i would make one other observation. if you're a fan of william shakespeare, this is also about power and the crown is on the ground. the prime minister is not going to fight the next election for her party. everyone is pretty clear, she's going to go this year. so people's positions in this debate are also dictated by where they think they're going to be in a future contest for the crown, for the leadership of the conservative party, and what that means at the moment is the leadership of the country. >> fascinating ongoing conversation. i'm sure we will have you guys on to explain the next twist in this saga. thank you both. up next, brexit was spurred on, at least in large part, by a fear of others. donald trump makes a lot of

political hate by stirring up the fear of others. why is it that this us versus them construct is so powerful? my next guest, a stanford professor, says it is hardwired into our brains. a fascinating conversation when we come back. too long. ♪ ♪ now i'm wondering if your loves still strong. ♪ ♪ ooo baby, here i am, signed, sealed, delivered, i'm yours ♪ applebee's 3 course meal now that's eatin' good
