tv Andrea Mitchell Reports MSNBC March 19, 2015 9:00am-10:01am PDT
9:00 am
ace process, what are the major headlines from your interview? >> reporter: well first of all, i think he was clearly stung by the u.s. reaction white house reaction to his election day and election eve comments that he would no longer would support a palestinian state and comments on election day about arab voters that led to criticism that it wasdy divisive and racist. he agreed to do this yesterday and sat down with me for his first american and israeli interview, the first tv interview he's done since the election. and he tried to rebut that. he walked back his comments about the palestinian state, especially in light of the u.s. threat now, the white house threat to go along with a u.n. statehood vote something that the united states has always blocked in the past on behalf of israel israel. here's how it went. >> prime minister, congratulations on your victory. >> thank you. >> but -- there's always a but,
9:01 am
critics and analysts here and around the world are saying at what cost. your hard turn right on the palestinian issue, which you said about the arab voters coming out in droves they say are costing you, costing you support around the world. >> well neither one is -- the premise in your question is wrong. i never changed my policy or retracted my speech six years ago, calling for a demilitarized palestinian state that recognizes the jewish state. what has changed is the reality, refuses to recognize the jewish state and made a pact with hamas which calls for destruction of jewish state. every territory that is vacanted in the middle east is taken up by islamist forces. we want to to change to sustain real peace. i don't want a one state solution. i want a sustain able two-state
9:02 am
solution, but for that circumstances have to changed. >> you're reelect d on a mandate, your supporters believe you were re-elected on a mandate with a two-state solution. the white house says this is divisive so dif isive that now the administration is saying they will not stop the u.n. from conferring statehood. they will not block or strongly considering not blocking a vote for statehood for palestinians. >> first of all, that state would become a terrorist state. iran says they will arm the west bank the way they arm gaza. we withdrew fromgaza we got thousands of rockets on our heads. don't want it to happen again. i think the administration has said time and time again, the only way to achieve peace is a negotiated solution, you can't impose peace. if you want to get peace, you've got to get the palestinian leadership to abandon their pact
9:03 am
with hamas and engage in genuine negotiations with israel for an achievable peace. we also have to make sure we don't have isis coming into that territory, it's only two dozen from our borders, thousands of miles away from yours. we need the recognition of jewish state and real security in order to have a realistic two-state solution. i was talking about what is achievable and what is not achievable. to make it achievable then you have to have real negotiations with people committed to peace. we are -- it's time we saw the pressure on the palestinians to show that they are committed too. >> words have meaning, tom freedman wrote today, they must have been doing high fives in tehran when they saw how low bibi sank to win. what better way to is late israel globally and deflect attention from iran's behavior. jeffrey goldberg said it would
9:04 am
be clam tus, the way you talkeded about not going for a palestinian state. >> i explained what it is we need. we need a demilitarized state -- >> tell your supporters. >> very, very important. i'm very proud to be the prime minister of all of israel citizens, arabs and jews alike. >> that's now the way it sounded on election day. >> if you heard what i said you might reconsider what you said and quoted. i'm proud of the fact israel is the one country in a very broad radius which arabs have free and fair elections, that will never change. i met a few days ago with the arab supporters many arab supporters north of the country. i said i'm concerned with a massive foreign funded money -- >> which foreign money, u.s. money? >> big ngos. >> you said tens and millions of dollars. >> definitely millions and it looks like maybe tens of
9:05 am
millions of dollars -- >> from america? >> among other places foreign fund raising, that's important. but what has happened is that i said they would try to get out votes for a specific party and amall ga mason of islamists and other groups. when that happens, make sure we get out our vote. i was trying to get something to counter a foreign funded effort to get votes intended to topple my party. i was calling on our voters to come out. quite a few of them, we got quite a few arab voters and i'm proud of that. my governments have funded billions and billions into the arab communities to try to upgrade infrastructure and schools and i will continue to do that. i will continue to do that. my government to have real integrace of arab citizens of israel into the israeli economy and israeli society and medicine and all of those areas, my commitment is real and that will
9:06 am
stay real. >> i want to ask you about praen. why should president obama trust when you came to congress to lobby against his negotiations with iran? >> i think there's an unbreakable bond between israel and the united states. the president said that i've said that. >> but what about between you and barack obama? >> i think that is reflected in the relationship between the president of the united states and the prime minister of israel, we have -- we can have differences but we have so many things that unite us. we have a situation in the middle east that is very dangerous and presents a common challenge. >> has he called yet to congratulate you? >> secretary kerry called me yesterday and i'm sure i'll speak to the president soon. we'll work together we have to. by coming to the u.s. i didn't mean any redisrespect i was speaking of something i viewed would be destruction of israel.
9:07 am
there are so many areas we will work together with the united states and the president because we have no -- no other alternative. we're allies and have to consult each other. not have unilateral imposition but negotiated peace with our neighbors and support between allies and america has no greater ally than israel and israel has no greater ally than the united states. >> the draft agreement would permit iran to have centrifuges and last for ten years or more. why is thisn't that better for israel to freeze their program and have inspections than the other option which would be a military option, only set them back a year or two? >> i think there are other options as well. i think you can get a better deal. the one i would have is to reduce iran's nuclear capabilities so you increase the breakout time. i mean if i had a vote on that negotiating team i would say zero centrifuges. >> you're willing to accept
9:08 am
some -- >> i would say that is something that smaller number would be something that israel and arab neighbors would love but they could live with. the most important thing is that the lifting of restrictions on iran's nuclear program would depend on iran's changeable behavior it would stop supporting terrorism, stop its aggression against just about every country in the region and stop calling and threatening the annihilation of israel. i remain committed to that. i think that's the right policy. >> are you counting on republicans in congress to kill a deal if it's a deal you don't like? >> i'm counting on having people hearing my view and considering the dangers to israel not only to israel across the broad spectrum, thgs not a partisan issue. i received very good feedback from both democrats and republicans in the united states and from many other places in the world and from many countries in the arab world.
9:09 am
the only thing i would say andrea is when arabs and israelis agree on something, i think it's worth paying attention. >> and your message to iran? >> for the people of iran we want piece with them but they've been taken over by a regime that calls for destruction. a think suppresses and brutalizes them as well. and the most important thing is that we prevent this regime from having atomic bombs to carry out their designs on destroying israel and their mad fantasy of taking over the middle east from there to the world. you don't want the formal sponsor of global terrorism armed with atomic weapons. that's bad for everyone. >> thank you very much prime minister. >> thank you, andrea thank you very much. >> prime minister netanyahu in his own words. joining me now is aaron david
9:10 am
miller who served as negotiator and adviser on middle east peace under both republican and democratic administrations. it does seem he's trying to put a completely different context on those comments preelection comments and election day comments about a palestinian state. >> i mean i've heard the prime minister in many different incarnations, this was not campaign netanyahu. this clearly was governance netanyahu. he sought to explain with some measure of contrition in some of his comments. benjamin netanyahu has principles but one of them is tremendous flexibility and the absence of principle when in fact it suits his needs and conception of israel's security needs. would it surprise me if you could -- if you had a peace process at some point in which palestinian statehood with the kinds of conditions he initially imposed way back in 2009 once
9:11 am
again became the frame of reference? absolutely not. let's be clear, andrea i wauxed the u.s./israeli relationship for many years. it's been dysfunctional under reagan and carter and somewhat dysfunctional under clinton and benjamin netanyahu in the first term. unlike all of those other periods, this is dysfunction without production. this is dysfunction with a public controversy, ongoing soap opera which is five or six years old. the only question it seems to me is whether or not the next 22 months will be worse than the last 20. >> and aaron, when we talk about this relationship he said we have to work together the president and i, but the president has signaled through his aides in the last 24 hours after seeing what netanyahu said on election day, he doesn't want to work with netanyahu, that secretary kerry will be the
9:12 am
designated hitter. >> i think frankly, some of these comments on the israeli and american side really do represent a kind of playground food fight politics. in the end, relations between nations rest not on individuals only. but on the broader contours of their interests. and the reality is and i will say this -- i've said it before, unlike the lehman brothers it really is too big to fail. but there has to be a measure of res prosty. some measure of trust and confidence in order to at least manage the two most important issues that join these two countries right now, one is what to do about iran's nuclear aspirations and what are you going to do if in fact you can't get two state solution? i think in some respects while mr. netanyahu's comments may
9:13 am
have been smart politics he in some respects burst an illusion. the chance of a two-state solution are probably slim to none, even before mr. netanyahu's state -- the question is how to manage it andrea. >> and the other question as was written in my promised land and other commentators have written, the problem is if there is one state, not two, with the growth of the arab population it will not be a jewish state or it will not be a democracy, but you can't have both. >> one state is not a solution. it's an outcome. it's a historic outcome which it seems to me is very unlikely to come to pass. but without the management of hope and even the management of illusions that you can somewhat create a negotiating process that will somehow resolve this conflict which is basically
9:14 am
driven by approximateproximity, you'll end up with a situation in that arena that will be frout with continued conflict and absence of accommodation cooperation. and ultimately forget american interests, ultimately will pose tremendous challenges to the state of israel and also to the management of their own national minority. what are they going to do -- how do they include 20% of their own citizens. palestinian citizens within an israeli public square and ensure they have the kinds of economic and social benefits and their fairly share of the political and economic -- these are two palestinian issues that continue to challenge this prime minister. and remember again, the only israeli prime minister to win back to back to back elections and if he makes it to 2018 the longest surviving israeli prime
9:15 am
minister since israel's greatest, whatever you think of this guy, and i'm not moralizing or editorializing here. he is not a speed bump when it comes to israeli politics. he is a genuine authentic reflection, not only of the political system but i suspect of a country that has drifted certainly since the year 2000 to the right in part in response to a dangerous tu multiuous region. >> in fact what they say here in israel, like it or not, bibi is king. thank you so much for all of your experience and your comments. >> always a pleasure. >> from jerusalem back to you, kristen welker in washington. >> andrea obviously the white house watching that interview quite closely. we'll bring you any reaction as we get it. con gratd lagss on such a huge interview. we'll watch nbc nightly news for more of andrea's reporting from israel. you can watch andrea's interview

it's been nearly one year since the kidnapping of 276 school girls in nigeria and three months since an attack on a boys school that ended the lives of more than 100 innocent children. the smallest citizens may be paying the highest price. i'm joined by gordon brown, now serving as united nations special envoy for global
9:20 am
education. thank you, prime minister brown, for joining me this afternoon. >> a privilege. >> i want to talk about the reason you're here you serve as a special envoy for education to the u.n. you and your wife helped to launch the safe schools initiative in the uk tell me about what you've accomplished so far since the inception, what the key goals are moving forward. >> this is the worst year we've seen for the violation of children's rights the mill tarization of schools, children being kidnapped just in nigeria but a few days ago and violation of children's rights in syria, iraq, sudan, pakistan we've got to do something about it. we need a humanitarian fund so that education is provided to children in emergencies. we need schools to be safe and need technology to make it possible to be reassured that everything is done to make schools safe. we need new guidelines that make schools as important for protection as hospitals are
9:21 am
under the geneva convention and of course we need to help the syrian refugees and other refugees to get back into education as quickly as possible because they could spend not just four years out of the country, they could spend ten years and they could miss the whole of their education otherwise. >> let's unpack a little bit about what you said you referenced some of the tragedies we've referenced in recent months. south sudan in february 89 boys kidnapped from classrooms to train as child soldiers and peshawar pakistan 132 children killed in a taliban attack and of course we talk about this the 276 school girls kidnapped by boekco har ram. what is your call to action to other governments? >> this is part of a pattern. if they get away terrorist o
9:22 am
groups, with kidnapping children in nigeria, they now do it in sudan and other countries, it is a shock and awe tactic. so we need air cover, surveillance and military help to rescue these children but we also need to make sure the schools in which they are in are safe because millions of children are not going to school many out of fear of what a terrorist group can do. we need to support education and emergencies, not just making schools safe but putting money in so that children can have some hope that even if they are in a conflict zone even if they are faced by terrorist activity they can plan for a future beyond the conflict in which they are in. that's why in lebanon at the moment we're working to get children half a million refugees into school. we've got to deal with a lebanese government they would run a double shift system and syrian children in the
9:23 am
afternoon, the problem at the moment, there's not enough international money being provided by the governments of the day to help us do something that is not only cost effective but protecting children from child marriage child labor and all that could happen to them if they are left on the streets without any hope. >> prime minister brown, let's talk about that the bottom line is you're asking for more money. so what is your target figure? i understand you've already raised about $30 million in recent months. >> $30 million for nigeria, 100 million from governments for lebanon. we want to raise $250 million for the provision of education to every child who is a syrian refugee in that region. that could be done if governments were prepared to come on board. what's happened is that education is given a very low priority in an emergency. only 1% of humanitarian aid goes to education.
9:24 am
but you know that health is important and food is important to keep people alive. but you've also got to give children hope that you're building for a better future for them and that's best done by making sure they can return to school and not be cast out on the street. i want the governments of the world -- we've got a pledging conference in april to provide money for this. i want them all to sign up to save school guidelines that means we will not allow schools to be mill tarrized without taking action and i want the long-term humanitarian fund to provide consistent and regular finance. whenever there's an emergency, we are prepared to act. >> prime minister gordon brown, thank you so much for joining us and that very important message and call to action. we really appreciate it. and the director of the secret service will be on capitol hill today. this comes as director joseph clancy is facing sharp questions about the two surveillance tapes which he viewed this week and other lawmakers viewed according to jason chaffetz the

9:29 am
and latinos. this year's report shows positive overall gains in equality for both groups from 2014 but also where more progress needs to be made. mark morial joins me now. thanks so much for joining me. >> thanks, kristen. >> the state of black america report, you found that the equality index rating is up it's at 72%. it's inched up a little bit. give us a better -- give us a better understanding of what the index is and what this increase actually means nationally? >> the index is very very small. but i think it's more helpful if we look inside the numbers. so inside the numbers and inside the state of affairs today, on one hand you've got 295,000 jobs being created. last month, over 200,000 jobs being created in every month for the last 12 months. and that's a first time since
9:30 am
1977. you've also got the highest high school graduation rates in history and downward trend when it comes to high school dropout rates. but then if you look at the unemployment rate what you say 33 of the top cities in america, the black unemployment rate exceeds 15% and in seven cities it is in excess of 20%. this means that the recovery has not reached all of the people in this nation and many are being left behind and it points to the work we need to do. >> following up on that point, let's break it down further, the index showed there were increase in social justice and health and decreases in education and civic engagement. you talked about unemployment. does it really come down to education, marc is that where folks are lagging and where resources need to be directed?
9:31 am
>> education is the passport to equal economic opportunity, no doubt. we've got to continue to focus and work on education. but many of the unemployed today are people who were working before the recession. and as the recovery has begun to develop now five years into it many are being left behind. so we look at at the urban league education and economics as certainly being linked. now i have to say and you mention the health index, and that is the affordable care act, the expansion of medicaid have had a positive effect. we see it in the numbers and we believe that over the next several years these numbers when it comes to the health gap will narrow even further. and it indicates that the affordable care act or some want to call it obama care is having a positive effect. it shows you what a broad intervention in fact will do to change the numbers.
9:32 am
>> and let's talk about some of those headlines, the reaction to ferguson to staten island does that encourage people to get more engaged and do you therefore anticipate this to keep going up by next year? >> i think, kristen, that these events have shocked people's consciousness in a big way. then there was the incident yesterday at the university of virginia where the university of virginia student and people ask why and how can this be happening in america in 2015. but what it does it compels people to act. it compels people to be more activist but what it should also say, we've got work to do to build bridges, to build better understanding and reform policing and bring communities and law enforcement more closely together. what i hope the report is is a call to action but what i also hope the report is is that it helps educate people on the
9:33 am
facts that america has work to do although we've come a great distance. >> you talk about uva, there's an investigation underway after a controversial arrest of a black student charged with obstruction and public intoxication. this was outside a local bar. it has sparked protest there. the officers involved are now on administrative leave. on administrative roles to be very clear. it's still being investigated and still a lot we don't know. what's your take right now? >> the governor acted very swiftly. university president acted very swiftly. whenever you see -- this is a university of virginia this is thomas jefferson's university this is a university that has some of the best and highest potential students in the country. to see this young man with stitches and blood on his face you ask yourself why, how did this happen? why was he beat?
9:34 am
was it justified? so while i certainly believe we've got to let the investigation run its course it just seems there's been an unacceptable pattern of police incidents involving young african-american men. now we have a young african-american man who is of the highest potential because he's a student at the university of virginia. we need to get the facts and see what happens. but again, it points to the work we need to do. >> all right marc morial thank you so much for your insight this afternoon. >> thanks, kristen. >> the next challenge for president obama ahead of his trip to latin america. we talk about the crucial role a changing cuba will play. she's got an arm like no other, but monet davis is just getting started. they just do it. at sears optical, we're committed to bringing them eyewear that works as hard as they do. right now, buy one pair and get another free.

9:39 am
talks in an effort to restore diplomatic relations, members of the u.s. and cuban delegations met privately monday days after president obama imposed sanctions against venezuelan officials for human rights violations. this comes a month after panama is set to host the summit of the americas wherefore the very first time in almost 60 years, the leaders of the u.s. and cuba will come together. i spoke to the vice president, a key player in the region about how this will impact the upcoming meetings in her country. >> vice president, thank you so much for joining us today. we really appreciate it. i want to start with one of the big diplomatic issues right now in the region the united states just imposing sanctions on venezuela. how big of a deal is that and what is the broader issue for venezuela and the u.s. and region? >> thank you very much kristen
9:40 am
for the opportunity of being here and of sharing my thoughts with you in this time previous to the summit of the americas. americans are all concerned about what's happened with venezuela and the united states and it's important to ensure that we look to dialogue in order to -- through dialogue ease tensions through dialogue face the issues and we have been working in the region. we have been discussing with many countries and in doing what we can to set the scenario for dialogue to take place and to be the way forward and to be the mechanism in order to -- to move forward in this situation. >> do you support the united states' decision to impose stiffer sanctions? >> it is not my -- my regard to support it or not to support it. the issue is this is a
9:41 am
situation between two countries and then there is a situation within venezuela that we want to assist in helping -- in solving, we want to support its solution. we need to be concerned in the really with development. we need to be concerned with issues facing our citizens which is the agenda set for the summit. and it is time i believe to focus on that because at the end, it is the well being of their families what is a concern of the citizens and it's a way forward to avoid future issues and avoid issues of immigration and issues of security and to face development, that's our agenda and that is what we're pushing for. >> the tensions are the back drop to these talks going on between top officials in the united states and cuba, which seem to have stalled. do you have any hope at this
9:42 am
point that there will be real problem prior to the summit of the americas which will be held in mid-april? >> we're convinced. they met monday and tuesday, discussing the document. we have continued forward with our development agenda with the issues that i have just raised and document that is being worked for the summit mandates to action which calls for addressing these issues security energy and yes, the table is set and everybody is invited at the table. of course always dialogue and discussion it appropriate for democracy and appropriate for addressing so let's not concentrate on the difficulties let's concentrate on the opportunities. >> do you think it's possible that the united states and cuba will have moved towards normalizing relations part of the summit there any hope for a real agreement on that? >> it's great news what happened, what is happening between the united states and
9:43 am
cuba, it's great news for the region. we really need to recognize the move forward and recognize the steps that they have taken. i have -- i see that the summit is a scenario where they will sit actually -- it is interesting to my understanding the last time that the president of the united states and cuba were together in a summit was in 1956 in panama. so then again, in panama for first time after so many years, this is good news to the region. i'm very convinced that the opportunity of dialogue in the framework of the summit on the issues of development will be great news for the region. >> do you have one key goal that you're hoping for that you want to stress during this summit? >> definitely. development, prosperity with equity is an issue we have set on the table for the summit. at the end, we need to
9:44 am
understand that our citizens all of them those in panama united states and cuba everywhere in the region have the same concerns. we need to move above the differences that we can have as countries and need to concentrate on our challenges and the challenges we face our own development and we're not going to solve the broader issues that concern us security immigration, health education, if we don't work together if we do not cooperate. that is our -- that is the agenda and that's what we're betting for, concentrate on the challenges that we face and work together to overcome them. >> a real honor to talk with you today. thanks for joining us in the studio. >> thank you very much. >> truly fascinating conversation with the vice president of panama. now, switching gears, baseball is just the start. what's next for monet davis? coming up you'll find out.

that's why i took xarelto®, too. xarelto® is proven to treat and help reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots. i took xarelto® for afib... an irregular heartbeat that can lead to a stroke from a blood clot. xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. hey, well i'm glad we got together. for people with afib currently well managed on warfarin there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. i tried warfarin before, but the blood testing routine and dietary restrictions had me off my game. tell me about it. let's see, golf clinic, or blood clinic? ooh, that's a tough one. not this time. not with xarelto®. anything else? i'll have another arnold palmer. ok. make mine a kevin nealon. really, brian? hey, safety first. like all blood thinners, don't stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. while taking xarelto® you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines.
9:47 am
xarelto® can cause serious bleeding and in rare cases may be fatal. get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto® watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle-related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve, or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. xarelto® has been prescribed more than 11 million times in the u.s. and that number's growing. like your guys' scores. with xarelto® there is no regular blood monitoring, and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto® was the right move for us. ask your doctor about xarelto®. you may be able to get up to 12 months at no cost.
