i'm ashamed and you settlement outposts and i go by territory and then the message from israel ok we have the united states here and look at what we're doing we're massacring palestinians and then in the united nations there are two israeli ambassadors one named don and one them dearly and we will blame the palestinians will blame the palestinians will export fear and so on and i don't think that enter national community has any on and their forehead saying stupid because the lack of free action of the international community is as little a threat is that any threat to the stability and security of all nations extrema blood would be brutal brutal will breed blood violence will breed violence this petition will lead to disparate apts and what israel is doing now and destroying a palestinian life social life economic life making people hopeless what will the it would be creating i'm a father of four

liberation organization mr erakat there is some effort on the part of the former u.s. administration the obama administration to try to convince its european allies to centrally hold on for a few years until trump is voted out of office you know they say dear that one day interim ballots you will have returned i wonder if that is the perspective that you take as well that this current american predisposition which is clearly harmful and unfair to your cause that it is only temporary well look we we had meetings with the term administration and two thousand and seventeen thirty five times grilling for some months between our president and president trump and i held personally thirty one of our meetings with them as negotiations we give them every possible chance with their decision and declaring as a result of israel be disqualified themselves from any role in the peace process we will not sit with them they're not partners they're not only biased they adopt and
3:05 pm
there's really bhushan of dictation and not negotiations and you know once franklin d. roosevelt said the office of the white house is an office of international oddity an office of international morality needs john statesman not real estate agents this administration cannot be a partner and of course we our only option is to stay on this land and to be in this land today between the river jordan and the military and we are the majority as palestinian arabs but i've seen and christian and muslim arabs we're fifty point nine percent jews are forty nine point one percent what are they going to do with us. other than creating extremism and then you know when violence spreads and people are being killed and what sides then israel will say oh these people have it in there then and they're terrorists and so on i have devoted twenty five years of my life in negotiations with israel to save lives resample athenians to live and let live we have who denies there's a right to exist we have accepted
3:06 pm
a palestinian state with is the return of capital to live side by side in peace and security with a set of us around the one hundred seven lines. what good is a return more settlements more dictations more killing more murders more siege more closures more collective punishment on demolish and all these all these actions are being done in two thousand and eighteen by a member of the un and they call it the only democracy in the world this is its fascism and it never in the history of south africa darkest hours of apartheid where blacks prevented to use roads what we're using to there are in the west bank and east jerusalem roads we cannot use us palestinians and such diseases as bigotry and racism once in inflict only underneath our skins of any kind of any risk and in religion we had it in this is a justify it sometimes we give sociological psychological economic sexual explanations and now as i was using the pretext security to justify its apartheid
3:07 pm
system being created and those bank is the us and the gaza strip and this must stop and this we will stand up we will not depart this is our land and we will defend ourselves mr erekat let me ask you one more question i know that the you believe the trance announcement and his decision to move the american embassy to jerusalem was essentially the end of the two state solution that's at least what you said on record and i also heard you say that trans decisions will force the palestinians to strive for quote unquote historic palestine from the jordan river to the mediterranean sea which is another way of saying that you too not only reject the two state solution but you actually don't recognize israel's right to exist on those territories i understand the emotions behind that statement i understand that but do you think it can bring your people any good in practical terms. what i said i said i said our only option our option is a two state solution our options to live and let live our option is for the state
3:08 pm
of israel which will be nice on the ninety six seven lines to live side by side in peace and security of the state of palestine that's what we said now is the mother who as a person instead refused to stop settlements and so on so we're left with two options if israel is destroying that was their solution and benjamin netanyahu personally is in office for the last nine years destroying that was state solution and now to them in order to be a little state solution will it was two options one is needed now is option one step two systems up or fight this will not be accepted to us the second option is one state equal rights for jews muslims and christians to live together that's a very civilized solution but the israelis will never accept it. so it was a listed as a two state solution and of the option of a third is not doable for the palestinians and of the option of one state it was not the will for the israelis what will this leave palestinians and israelis with i think the this narrative of historic palestine is definitely becoming more popular
3:09 pm
among the palestinian officials just the other day mahmoud abbas said that palestine is for the palestinians it is not as the jews claim the land of their ancestors so he does seem to be questioning israel's right to exist on those lands and i wonder if that does not make it easier for israel to paint you as anti semitic rejectionists president mahmoud abbas went to the security council in february twentieth two thousand and eighteen and his speech last week of the palestine national council and iterated our commitment to the two state solution where the state of palestine where these duracell limits its capital will live side by side in peace and security with the state of israel and he called for an international conference and he was willing to come to moscow then with asian president putin to meet with the with prime minister netanyahu and prime minister netanyahu refused then with asian present put in place not once or twice and accepted we are with a two state solution with. israel did not recognize us since one thousand eight
3:10 pm
hundred we have accepted resolutions two for two and three is rare and who has israel and since one thousand eight hundred israel has done nothing but to dictate settlements on the land that's obviously a palestinian state that's the reality that's a reality we never abandon that was their solution that's a two state solution as our line is our vision is to live and let live because we know that we realists this is the only way for palestinians and israelis is to have two states to live side by side in peace and security next to each other. now who's destroying the two state solution who's building settlements in the supposed to be a palestinian state on the hour every hour who is the typical if it was a limb other than from bennett and you know who is doing the collective punishment and military means can you solve the political problem with military means you can't you can't so all these things our position is that we have to win as israel and the stance israel refuses the two state solution present never mention two
3:11 pm
states he mentioned in the context that if both parties agree the giver of it in and you know they did the administration's of the not steps in six seven considered is jerusalem as a territory now they said will who knows duracell him as defined by the government of israel that means they have abandoned their line that is there was a massacre by predatory so what do you do in such guess i think i think this region is being thrown into the hands of extremists i think moderates are being destroyed and i think this is their intention their strategy so they can say israel can say oh we're only democracy we had we don't we don't we want peace what we don't have a partner for peace and nobody will ask them but you had a partner for peace would have ignited you since one thousand area and then a bush ended with you for twenty five years and you did not move one inch to announce that you accept that was that solution or you want to who knows the palestinian state or stop settlements or stop the collective punishment mr erekat we've talked about israel and the united states but i think it's also evident that
3:12 pm
one of your former strong backers in the arab world saudi arabia is also. well is no longer there for you if i may put it that way i'm sure you've heard about this leaked conversation of the crown prince saudi crown prince reportedly suggesting that they said the palestinians should take what's on offer or shut up what's your reaction to that. this is absolutely baseless it's not true last night i was with the president when he when he received a phone call from his majesty king so member of judges of saudi arabia he called for an emergency session tomorrow for a lot of foreign minister to be pushed to fully support us they denounced and condemned the dumb decision and that's this is false accusation they're trying to shock to tell palestinians that you are wrong that's a lie we have a con men out of position i'll admit if i will do it with each other over syria where iraq over libya over yemen but when it comes to palestine arabs are united the last summit held and riyadh again so
3:13 pm
a man of saudi arabia said it's the summer of jerusalem and condemnation of the times a decision that is the truth that's the truth there is no other country that doesn't support us fully supporting us and that's the truth so all these lies being spread by myth and you know that are trying to to say that the way they see their geopolitics of the region that iran is the threat and that we join with saudi arabia and we join with the emirates with this with that that's totally got the lights netanyahu has occupation is this it stabilizing all countries well mr arafat may have to leave it there really really appreciate your taking time to talk fast today and i also invite our viewers to keep this conversation going in our social media pages i hope to see here again same place same time here and also part. of. our.
