what is your reading of the recent elections israeli seem to have voted more same to not as far right as was earlier predicted would you agree with us we thought that this knesset the nineteenth knesset will be much more radical than the eighteenth but i am not sure this impression is the right to the victory of the party of european there is a future his at the end is. in the victory of the center. of liberals of the seculars he instilled. in large meant and strengthening the liquid does that mean good news for breakthrough in peace talks i'm not sure of that. usually israelis are in love with the process not with the peace they are talking a lot about peace but doing nothing nothing in order to achieve it there are fascinated with they along with fatah or with talking with negotiations
10:31 am
as to say that this is the goal but it is their tool not the goal and it's to achieve peace meanwhile israel is trying to rearrange the occupation not to in the completion arab parties have won the same number of seats as before but what we have noticed is a decrease in the number of arab voters turning out to cast their bad love this time we it increased by three percent compared to two thousand and nine still it is very low half of the our voters are not participating why are you not able to get more people to vote we succeeded in stopping the decline and the decline was. it built to bring us to forty eight forty five but we are arrived to fifty
10:32 am
six this is good this is a given to the direction of increases but a good percentage will be seventy or more as a minority a national minority we should vote more than the majority but we are doing the opposite and it's a mistake in the selection extreme right wing israeli parties united why are the arab parties not able to unite as well because we are not extreme but we should have one arab unified list we tried our best to compose and to create it before the elections but in order to created all parties should agree and not all parties agree to our board proposal do you think we'll see a larger number of arabs in the parliament in the future i think yes i think next
10:33 am
elections there will be more. mandates than to the more than eleven there is a move now after these elections to get more off a duck's truce to serve in the army this could likely sport over into a call for more arabs to serve in the israeli army why are you against this ideological you reconsider the army corp army. fighting against our people our nation it's a conscious it's an ideological reason and the state itself did not ask. to be recruited in the army are you concerned that if orthodox jews eventually have to serve in the i.d.f. so will arab israeli citizens even those who are dealing with it are seeing that. they are not demanding army service where i am and they are not demanding obligation of civil service they are just. willing to
10:34 am
promote the idea we are against even that because we think that the starting point of the arab youth is much lower than the stunt the starting point of the jewish years in israel we should not lose two years in order to enlarge the economical and those who are talking about financial support or compositions are lying they are misleading the public how do you predict the second netanyahu term no one can predict it and you. know he is not anticipated and he is in love with the impasse what do you mean to say that there is no partner this is his slogan he things that as a leader of israel he can say so and convince the israeli public and continue
10:35 am
without putting an into a corporation and creating two state solution i am not sure that the future will be secure and this is his responsibility some say that netanyahu is policy of building settlements will lead to a one state solution do you agree there are two options or a one state solution or two state solutions he should have the choice that the israeli people should have the choice and to decide if to have two state solution there is a partner if not there will be more and more loudly voices talking about one state solution it is a nightmare for israelis that's why. is that when you are putting two choices in front of israelis they are automatically choose the third choice
10:36 am
which is the status quo why because they can and this is the most dangerous choice for how long can the status quo continue the status quo is the binning of the apartheid in the occupied territories the international community is more and more none tolerant for this situation and south africa is a very good example with the new who should play on that model the result can be the same israel is defined as a jewish and democratic state in your opinion is that a contradiction how would you define israel there is. an obvious contradiction between the two values if you are democratic you believe in equal rights for all citizens but if you define yourself as a state by an ethnic difference. as
10:37 am
a jewish state you are immediately saying that you do citizen is superior to non jew citizens which is a contradiction to the equal equality value that to see i am seeing is about is really a jewish and democratic state but it is the most graphic towards joules and jewish the words are up and this is the difference will you accept as well as a jewish state if it ends the occupation and goes back to one nine hundred sixty seven borders and there is no relation between both i. right of existence of the state of israel there was there was the letter of recognition i am recognizing israel as a state i am a member of its parliament. and i cannot. accept the definition. putting me in an inferior status both legally and biblically.
10:38 am
to the jewish model at any cost but in the past you have said that you believe in the nation's right to self to finish and so are you not contradicting yourself here no i recognize the sin of the finnish and the jews in israel but in israel there are all saw and mainly indigenous people who were here and did not come for writers or buy a plane or buy a ship i cannot. live. peacefully with the idea that is a belief in the state of the jewish people every drunk in every war every place in the world cannot drive you and be immediately citizen when my uncle and mine died in full color or in jordan after being expelled in one thousand nine hundred eighty eight without even having is that right to be buried entirely in my town or
10:39 am
in jaffa from where there where respect it is in justice pure and justice you are a member of the parliament since one thousand nine hundred nine as an arab are you prevented from making new laws no i am not prevented from some kind of laws i was prevented from even proposing them to the knesset but usually i passed five laws in the last knesset but they are saying they're closed which contradicts with the jewish. identity of the steered can be prevented as you say in the last term you made five new laws but they were general they weren't specifically geared towards arab israelis as an arab member of parliament what kind of influence do you have over israel's policy towards its arab minority we are the elected legitimate leadership of the arab minority we
10:40 am
managed to stop or to change some racist motions other motions we will not be able to stop the arab communist leader tof exulted said that one demonstration is worth more than a year's work inside the israeli parliament what do you think sometimes yes sometimes no when we were here in the knesset and supported the. withdrawal of israel from the settlements in gaza it was much better than thousand demonstrations but both can go together demonstrations and parliament and that's what we are doing palestinian refugees in syria are caught in the middle of the fighting there many of them are now becoming refugees a second or third time over there is talk of them coming back to the west bank do you think israel will allow this i doubt that there is and seeing the palestinian
10:41 am
president is willing he demanded that he. but those are it is a reluctant. there is a tragedy of the proceedings in syria as it was in iraq as it was in kuwait we had one knocked about in one thousand nine hundred eighty eight we're not supposed to continue having not a bus how is israel managing to avoid the impact of nearby regional conflicts which have a strong terrorist element to them a little low saying that they are upset about what's going there are monitoring following was going sometime there are interfering. secretly publicly how by the contact with the american administration. by the clear asians by israeli officials and he couldn't seal operations i don't know in which way do you think egypt should be aiding the
10:42 am
palestinians what it goes further than just making announcements for example in terms of gaza egypt is the most greatest country more influential country. but egypt can be much more influential we want egypt to be strongest. to be healed from its entailment issues because a strong egypt is strong but us like. strong egypt is a strong peace. yet the situation is not dr ahmed to be thank you very much for joining us here on r.t. . his power was the envy of ambrose. he had good reason to trust no one.

10:44 am

you don't have a chance on the new rules to control your mind coming up. on america's worst liar. murdoch's prize for his company's crime. and why this matters more than nine eleven. it's a sobering fact that power structure has exerted tremendous influence over public opinion in this country through its virtual control of higher education and major segments of mass communications. that human mind is like a computer no matter how efficient it may be its reliability is only as great in the information that into it if it is possible to control the input to the human mind that no matter how elegant a person maybe it's entirely possible to program what he will think you want me to

news vacuum this town hall without scrutiny the result quotes from movie gross misuse of taxes and local corruption craig our in the media reform group free press in will shape is regional news coverage today everywhere i go across the country people tell me that their local news absolutely must be the worst and we see this kind of media consolidation and concentration and we see owners that don't have ties to those communities. to the political discourse in those communities that congress or government corruption really starts to suffer and i think that's one reason to be very concerned here when you have even more media following and even fewer. facility also funds modocs folks news plus the biggest law even the pundits no longer pretend to be a serious source simply look at this. and watch again we put it up on the

air that's a flat out lie unless kasra is a know it. yet murdoch's friends in power trying to complete his grip on the country's information and the low being for rules to be changed again so you can buy remaining u.s. flagships the l.a. times and chicago tribune trade no one stopped him at a moment when so much of the rest of the world especially in england is waking up to the dangers of that much media consolidation and concentration i think is was so shocking about this that we're at a moment where it you know even just this week more journalists working for mr murdoch are being arrested this scandal continues to expand and yet here in the states we're not really talking about that i think so many politicians are afraid. aggravating fox news in becoming targets there and i think that mr murdoch has expressible amount of lobbying power and clout here in the states that how to keep
