presence in the country israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is planning to bury a recent controversial report on west bank settlements according to israeli media the document was sanctioned by his own government and states that the country's presence in the west bank is not occupation something netanyahu doesn't want to discuss in order to avoid international scrutiny artie's spoke to an alter of a previous report on the issue which produced very different findings that interview is up next. with me i have tellus a son a noted attorney and also the author of a two thousand and five israeli government sponsored report that documented the legality of the building of outposts on the settlements thank you very much for joining us here on our t. there has just recently been another report also government sponsored the levi

report that found exactly the opposite that these outposts in fact on legal in the country of law how is it possible to have these contradictions my or poor. in flying on the supreme court of justice of israel decisions for decades for forty five years old morse that international law applies in the west there and all the clues range and recommendations are based on this fact in my report but the levy. committee this sided that the international law doesn't apply in the west bank and all their recommendations. based on the. to my opinion you current found it in this supreme court and would you agree that the west bank today in somalia is not israeli soil

and if so what legal grounds does israel have for legislating laws regarding land that is not under its jurisdiction while to my opinion and to the opinion that was written by the supreme court of justice or for israel for ever and ever is that israel has no surrender in the west bank the occupation is a temporary one until a peace agreement will be achieved between. the two people the palestinian people they have paid the israelis and the authority you asked me after these readies to legislate laws in the west bank are coming from the international law from fear hagel nations and their fourth geneva convention that they give their authority to the queue for mander of the i.d.f. who. occupied the area to legislate laws to protect the

palestinians and the security of the area the ministry of housing allocates millions to these outposts each year they by giving them a lifeline as long as the government's policy of funding these outposts exists how can the matter be resolved well i may some difference in my report between settlement outposts because. to the opinion of the government of israel the settlements enterprise. i'm not sure that the international community or international law thinks the same on this topic but there's no question that. there is no question according to my report and to this supreme court of justice decisions that the outposts which are a beginning of settlements in the west bank are legal according to their internal

law that applies here also to the. government of israel in the united states in response to the level of port said that it opposed settlement building now washington has made similar statements in the past but what action has the united states taken in order to force israel to stop breaking international law when i was commissioned to do this to do this to poor i think it was on behalf of the prime minister of israel to show their americans the years trying to for all the law and he is trying to implement the law in the area. where we're talking about they've been anything out of the america in the round. to freeze the settlements for ten months. as much as i know this is what the americans

did. maybe they could do more maybe they could i don't know isn't an attorney now who's continued support of the settlements and that not pose a threat to the definition of israel as a democracy definitely yes i believe their interest after the staple foods row is to remove large part of the west bank and bring about one hundred twenty thousand turtle or specter to the state of israel all the settlements that are east into the barrier maybe some more by achieving a peace agreement with the palestinians by making swap based on sixty seven borders we have corrections off the border. i believe that this is a highly interest of the state of israel because the continuation of the

a completion in the west bank in danger this data feeds veil of the jewish people and a democratic state its role is in grave breach of international law especially on the issue of our posts in your opinion why has the united nations not yet sanctioned israel i can't give you an answer for your question i don't know why and what going to happen by the united nations but i believe that this issue needs to be solved by an agreement between the two people i don't i don't believe that sanctions will. will solve the problem. personally for the state of israel prime minister for israel government to feel very well and the palestinians. to get to the table and start discussing without any terms and conditions the act by water

some in the israeli protester who set himself on fire and later died from his wounds during the recent social protests is an act that until now has largely been associated with non-democratic countries is solomon's act not an indicator that the social protests and as well are more than just social this is an interesting question. i believe in the israeli democracy after all i think we are still a democracy and we have to defend our democracy democracy is not something you know that is written in a paper and that if you have all voice to fight for a. specific to the case of this very sad issue that you asked me about i don't believe that you chose death to israel or the social protest are being. quite extinct i don't think so.

the demonstrations last three are there you know a huge number of people they took part in. less than a million but many people there weren't any violence of it all and you could see violence of their many democratic states in the world so i don't think that this issue could teach you that israel is one democratic state and one of the issues of the social protests is public housing couldn't the money that has been used to fund illegal settlements hope resolve the situation of course. i agree with you one hundred percent. israel shouldn't. waste it's money in the west bank anyhow even me for every person every soul in israel had a house without any. connection to this issue but of course when we

have such a big problem of housing of thing for poor people then we could make use of this money to make it easier and better for the life of the israelis in say these are what impact will israel's uncertain economic problems have on financing the outposts i really don't know but what i'm seeing is that we're talking about problems economic problems in israel severe economic problems in the israel but when the government is talking about the west bank the problem there cannot be problems furnished because if they want to remove thirty people in the open now that area which is from land to somewhere else because the supreme court of justice or israel are ordered and then the government has a lot of money to bring them there or to build new houses or to build

thank you very much karen welcome along to the sports headlines here is what's coming out the door of a new era fabio capello takes charge of russia for the very first time as the ivory coast guard your position in wednesday's friendly. net loss maria kirilenko is it may well be able to eliminate head of the u.s. open and prematurely pull and defeat a wild card entry the miss williams. on the summit series destroyed canada when the twenty twelve summer series with russia for two years off one of the most famous hockey rivalries began. but first later on wednesday fabio capello's reign as a russia manager gets underway the national team taking on the ivory coast in a much that will hopefully mark the dawn of a new era following a disappointing euro two thousand and twelve campaign michael go has more. a new

manager a new era that's mainly how fabulous appointment has gone down in russia and he's wasted no time in ringing the changes axing several senior players like readings pavel pogrebnyak and sporting lisbon is that my luck in the process. i've chosen players based on their current form but also with an eye on the future taking into account their age because for those who are not picked i will continue to keep tabs on them and although i admire them i have to make a final decision. knowing that one of the main complaints by fans and critics alike was how quickly the level of commitment faded during the euros but capello has already drafted in some new young players in order to begin rebuilding the passion he so demands from his players. it's always been a privilege to play for my country regardless of whether it was for the youth team or the under twenty one's i love my country and i'm always ready to play because sometimes things don't go your way but i've always been motivated to the marks of.

the team may have failed but most of the flak was directed at none other than russia's captain andrea shannon but rather than seek out somebody new capello has decided to put faith in the arsenal london forward. i believe everyone deserves a second chance to become the best again and put our share of him it will be a great opportunity to prove himself once more in this important role because criticism serves to help improve and then we develop further and to acknowledge our mistakes arshavin has of course shown much remorse since his infamous fall out with fans after the team's euro two thousand and twelve exit at the hands of greece putting the past behind him he seems to have embraced his role as captain with new vigor they're just about it because i want to see as many supporters come to our games as possible and i want them to support us not only for the game on wednesday but throughout the entire qualification cycle because it's been a while since we last made it to the world cup and this time i really want to qualify. booking

a trip to read this and. in twenty four teams is the ultimate goal and no one is in doubt that capello is the man who can get them the but it will be the players who ultimately have to win back the hearts of the nation so the era of capello's reign in russia begins in earnest today with a training session behind me in preparation for the first friendly match to be played against the ivory coast on wednesday evening of course this means that there's plenty of those unities for new unexperienced young players to take advantage of this new restart for russian football but it also begs to see how far they can get when they take on the runners up of the african cup of nations michael r t moscow region well elsewhere on wednesday spain fresh from successfully defending their european crown take on puerto rico between euro two thousand and twelve finalists it's an eight on the side they knocked out in the quarter finals lots england will face sweden the netherlands travel across the border to belgium well germany entertain lino messes argentina and didier deschamps take charge of

france for the first time as they host your required. well rain as france manager has begun in far from ideal circumstances it's been confirmed this week the two of the teams that biggest stars will stand trial in a high profile sex case karim benzema in front rebury will face charges of soliciting and underage prostitutes in two thousand and eight and two thousand and nine respectively the players deny the claims while the woman in question says night that she was just sixteen at the time prostitution is legal in france but only with people aged eighteen or over the players could face a maximum of three years in prison and a fireball around fifty thousand dollars. well there's also reaction across the atlantic on wednesday the usa travel to mexico just days after the mexican surprise brazil in the olympic football final the victorious under twenty three team is set to be honored prior to wednesday's fixture the visitors meanwhile will be looking

for their first. ever win over mexico on mexican soil the game at the famous azteca stadium is an opportunity for the usa to prepare for the resumption of the two thousand and fourteen world cup qualifying campaign next month when you are in klinsmann's manit take on jamaica twice in four days. now russia is a limp ians are meanwhile enjoying a hard break after the games the country's female artistic gymnastic team though taking the time to criticize some of the judging in london despite this quarter bringing home a gold two silver and three bronze medals. i see is the additional award russia hasn't won much tonight used to do mistakes since two thousand and it's very hard to get back to the top of dissension one drunkard's the judges go used to senior citizen country dominate and could possibly even grade them higher than they actually performed and in the starting however had a completely perfect outing in an even bars and she wouldn't have been won gold otherwise. discussions now tennis where maria kirilenko has become the fourth

seeded player to crash out in the early round of the cincinnati open the russian putting up a valiant effort against venus williams but eventually came up short in their three sept battle olympic double gold medal the all doubles gold medalist williams into the first set against the russian six three the kirilenko showed a great result in the second fighting back from fire or down to twenty seven six millions finding more consistent with them in the fire however wrapping things up swiftly six three six seven six. runs into the sea. while i was the cobra remains on track to reach her fourth w.t. a pile of the year they twenty four year old had a slow start to her second round battle with hungary and to play above us carbo dropping the opening set six three possibly showing some rushing to a first round bye this year's wimbledon semifinalist however finding her stride through and set her in just why she is ranked high at number seven in the world three six six one six two the final score. and

final two ice hockey were canada have edged russia to claim victory and i torment marking the fortieth anniversary of the famed summit series the under twenty stars adding another chapter to the nation's rivalry as rome on course arrive explains. russia vs canada is one of the greatest i soccer rivalries that the world has ever seen and the year two thousand and twelve is a very special for the fans from both continents and that's because it all began exactly forty years ago with the u.s.s.r. canada summer series back then it was more than about sports with the country's leaders and media looking at the series as a clash of political systems and ideologies though politicians still don't see eye to eye on many vital issues the heroes of nine hundred seventy to know that they manage something birds really unattainable and that's uniting two nations through ellerey these men are still idolized by fans in both countries after all it's also

their effort and dedication that continue to raise global popularity of ice hockey . the summit series of nine hundred seventy two was one of the brightest and top of vents of the twentieth century if i remember correctly phil esposito and alexander yaku she have scored the most points in that standoff but it's not about points but about you who are the stars that still shine not only on the hockey horizon but sports in general as well you impressed millions of people in the usa canada europe and the u.s.s.r. . the russia canada challenge is one contest that fans can no longer live without with the ultimate competition spreading over to youth and junior teams as well and this brings us to this year's four game encounter that began with two matches in euro slava before concluding with another two in the canadian city of halifax right now canada knows russia is the number one country in the world.

and juniors two years ago gold medal last year silver medal match world medal so we want to get back to being able to compete with russia following last year's air does. that wipes out the entire local kontinental hockey league team local one seed it was quite obvious that the locals have really missed their high level game as both matches in euro slalom have been sold out the fans players and staff honor the team members who perished with a moment of silence. this is still i have been a fan since the age of six but after the trying to do with the committee i couldn't even watch hockey without crying but i'm glad i'm here today to witness such a great match and i'm very proud of every single player on the ice. well canada claimed the three two win in the series opener before russia returned the favor

with a six three victory in game two but the international experience for both teams certainly added value to the result the twenty thirteen junior i swore to world championship will be held in the russian city of new fall so it's not long before we see these youngsters they saw in order to once again stake a claim to the title of the greatest ice hockey nation. there are a slump. well the series is now over in canada with the home side securing the bragging rights so russia went into the decisive again for the thing to want to over all the match ended. in sudden death wrapping up the game for. winning the series. from the water sports now but i'll be back with plenty more in just under two hours time here on out and do join me then the wild weather is next .
