and also the leader of the arab movement for change dr thank you very much for joining us here on r.t. what is your reading of the recent elections israeli seem to have voted more same to end 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 that it didn't i am not sure this impression is the right to the victory or the party of there is a future is at the it is. in the victory of the center. of liberals of the secular laws. instead the reverse. enlargement 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

fastened with fatah or with talking with negotiations 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 ballot of 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

able to bring us to forty eight forty five but we are arrived to fifty 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 its mystic in the selection the 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 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 would not ask. to be recruited in the army are you concerned that if offered up strews 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 promote the idea we are against even that because we think that the starting point of the arab youth is much lower than the standard 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 with any. no one has nothing to submit and he is in love with the impasse what do you mean to say that there is no partner this is his

slogan the things that as a leader of israel he can see saw and convince the israeli public and continue 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's to say 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 loud the voices talking about one state solution it is a nightmare for israelis that's why. is that when you are putting

two choices in the front of israelis they are automatically choose the third choice 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 to this situation and south africa is a very good example with the new who should learn 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 differences. as a jewish state you are immediately saying that you do citizen is superior to an undue citizen 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 critical towards jules and jewish the words are up and this is the difference will you accept israel 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 a lot of recognition i am recognizing israel as a state i am a member of its parliament. and i cannot. accept

a different. putting me in an inferior status both legally and biblically. to the jewish majority 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 different mission of 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 june in every war every place in the world cannot drive you and be immediately citizen when my uncle and my son 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 in jaffa from where there were 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 or to julie i passed five laws in the last knesset but they are saying that glows 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 managed to stop or to change some of this is 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 as a result seeing the palestinian president is willing he demanded that he does that but there isn't really is a reluctant. there is a tragedy for the palestinians 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 they are interfering. secretly bubbly how by the contact with the american administration. by the clear ations by israeli officials and he

conceded operations i don't know in which way do you think egypt should be aiding the palestinians what it goes further than just making announcements for example in terms of gaza egypt is the most greatest country most influential country. but egypt can be much more influential we won egypt to be strongest. to be healed from its endearment issued because a strong egypt is strong but i stay. 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. .

juggling geog. do hack work and get caught when lobbyists money and lawmakers are combined together that's where the problem of corruption comes from. i don't know the document's. keep up a smart look. there is also. another way behind that which is how to influence the institutions to steer clear of provocations don't answer any question. came into the office and found banners hanging around the office and lots of strange faces around

someone and said what's what's happening will somebody please tell me what's going on and they said oh we've come to occupy your building. possibly they want to do a confrontation possibly they wanted me to ring up the police to have the police come in through the mount but it didn't seem to be a good idea to learn the european way with brussels business and in the crossing it's one person one fault but in brussels business it's one euro one fault. for some people the extreme cold is the chilling threat to life or imminent death it's a cooling if you look you can see that the water evaporates and my body feels really warm now this is good for you. they plunge into icy water to make themselves stronger you can't get used to the cold if you can tolerate it and you can struggle with. people have snow and ice takes is

a frost. surviving the cold. for. us. you don't have a chance on the noodles to control your mind coming up. on america's worst liar. murdoch prize for his company's crime. and why this matters more than nine eleven. is just over a 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 match communications. that human mind is like

a computer no matter how it did maybe its reliability is only great if the information that into it if it is possible to control the input to the human mind then no matter how elegant a person may be it's entirely possible to program what he will think you want me to produce should warm and wag the dog advise this fake a foreign war crimes by the president but in the fifteen years since real life is gone a lot fo the public now expects to be annoyed to on a daily faces since the ninety's trust in the press has elapsed place in mainstream t.v. is even law only true in ten americans now believe what they see on the mainstream scream people saw a real failure to hold establishment to account as a key reason industry veteran mike wendy how far is this media lovin with goal people are very very friendly with. well you make as many of them have husbands or

wives are in the administration or and i do agencies and i've always had a problem with that closeness and that privilege is something that distorts and there's correspondence in bed with the people that supposed to be grilling your father was frozen by that you know circle when he refused to keep printing press releases and began telling the truth joe how does it work the obama administration their masters at it because they have the press eating out of their hand the big press the establishment press the corporate press eating right out of there and you have these corporate titans who presided over these you know half a dozen major media enterprises and these guys have to deal with the government these guys are regulated these guys need license approvals from the federal government look at how much money they spend lobbying in washington to get their way for instance and you know with a snap of the fingers you can get those guys to change editorial direction.

he. says media in the pentagon papers showed prison is competing to what else is closed ranks it says has been reduced to a few friendly mega-corporations the systematic sense of drug use to kill americans so food because funding regimes in the wrong tool syria as security kids for witchcraft received inconvenient questions the capitol hill favorite said . rupert murdoch's just been filmed guilty of systematic cool hiking and other crimes in his british media it's over in the state's republican chums of successfully lobbied the federal communications commission to hunt him told media strangleholds used to. no one's networked you will please all monopolies in

america's key cities if cc's changed its rules again to allow murdoch ownership t.v. radio and press domination in the same community with no laws or minimum content some cities no longer get any local news just fearless from his entertainment. news this town hall with scrutiny the result is gross misuse of taxes and local corruption craig our in the media reform group free press in wall shape is regional news coverage today everywhere i go across the country people tell me that their local news absolutely must be the worst when we see this kind of media consolidation and concentration we see owners that don't have ties to those communities. to the political discourse in those communities to congress and 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 it even fewer.

facility also funds modocs fox news plus the biggest law even the pundits no longer pretend to be a serious source simply look at the distortions. and watch again we put up on the air that's a flat out lie and us characterize a no and. yet murdoch's friends in power trying to complete his grip on the country's information and a low being for rules to be changed again so you can remain in 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 what is so shocking about this that we're at a moment where you know even just this week more journalists working for mr murdoch are being a. yes did 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 of aggravating fox news and 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 this scandal out of the national conversation. on the tenth anniversary of invading your wrote this flagship n.b.c. program called claims to reveal who gains from the media what the bill below is the provoked wall but it doesn't mention one of the chief davis n.b.c.'s owner well manufacture of general electric in fact ten days off to the biggest antiwar protests in history instead of talking about those rallies and putting the war risk and b.c. took its overly critical program off the phil donahue show producer jeff cohen jeff did you trace the paper trail to the top memos leaked out internal ac memo leaked

out to make sure there were no problem by the bush administration when so much of the media is in lockstep and you start asking skeptical you'll likely be taken off the air general electric just sold it b c to comb calls leaving a couple of cable providers in one of the world's biggest countries craig room will to fix has that had comcast eighteen's heaver rise in time warner. hose at least competing with each other but in reality just dividing up territory across the country so that they can maintain incredibly high profit margins and where they don't feel that it was a pressure to invest in new technologies and new services and the result has been then americans pay far higher prices for far slower service than a lot of the rest of the world g.e. selling else a small movie many ways with floyd interest comes crushing few a ship so mega cool. so found a much more sinister way to get in the minds of the i'm suspecting the stealthy

sentinel provided crucial intelligence in the republic service brokaw's the p.b.s. backs drones spying on americans just because the show's financed by the make of the sentinel drone located molted. punishment for anyone who steps out soiled this establishment is a collective job mainstream continues to claim a soul just scoops a puts in the law if that risk even though that's been denied even by the defense that could see himself a soldier's croy is he's exposing evils exactly the job the mainstream media should be doing but so-called is the column is ted rolls and to work has made him a regular gets for the mainstream media is there any evidence that americans actually want this choice to lead to vision the mainstream gives them by how to talk radio show where just for fun to make fun of ignorant uninformed americans i used to do breaking news from central asia and because i figured it's the most

remote place no one would care about it well the joke was on me because it became the most popular segment of the show people really wanted to know what was going on in central asia people are very very hungry we never ever get to see what it's like to be an ordinary afghan or iraqi living under us occupation we never ever get to see what it's like to be a european for example and what they think about us we don't talk to many people on the streets unless they're right outside be american network studio in manhattan or in washington and i think americans really are they're not any stupider than anyone else inherently we're just stupid or because no one's letting us be smart is it possible to stalk me deal goalie go vote for the establishment i mean these corporations should really shouldn't be permitted it shouldn't be possible for a media company to be owned by a company that's engaged in. another form of business that media covers which

pretty much anything media should be independent of media own just being frozen else they now fear for their lloyd's pentagon papers hero ils book is one of the holy profiled groups. for grouping opens this should reporting as terrorism invest journalist medicine bru put the supreme court just ruled again in obama's favor where does that leave us under the national defense authorization act this event read the indefinite detention for the need right in the middle rare journalist can be treated as terrorists for hearing out in their activities and that means indefinite detention without charge or trial unfortunately most people in the united states by sheer numbers would rather read about. card ashley and baby i don't even know her last name. her baby then a decision saying that the obama administration came claimed then legal right to

assassinate american citizens local and federal government getting away with corruption the few who still expose it it's called is for assassination but mainstream ropes the military live a moments of soil it's full on kim's most of those plastic surgery amersham when you're like ok we can turn a camera find out what i thought it was such a great idea and this is the truth each of. us.
