stand and the plo stand their ground on the resolution condemning settlements and they refuse to back down as requested in a 50 minute previously the u.s. had to use both carrots and sticks to try to get the p.a. to withdraw the revolution so they wouldn't have to veto, but despite a 50 minute phone call from barack obama to mahmoud the loss they refused to do so. of course the p.a. position was already weakened because of its stand it took towards the report, but had already made it vulnerable, and in the week of the arab revolution simply could not say yes to barack obama. and it's really interesting to see some elements of the party kind of of the antiin the relationship with the united states and the kind of replay you have the p.a. officials in east jerusalem now breaking off contact with the u.s. consulate in jerusalem and refusing to accept aid from the u.s. so rather than the u.s. boycotting the p.j. or the palestinian authority the reverse needs to happen and the jerusalem lights are urging other palestinians to do so. now should we see these moves and understand these moves

we weren't the plo friends of the plo group that existed. we were a human rights campaign, and so some of those issues didn't affect us, but we were clear in condemning that stuff and made it very clear that not only it was destructive of human life on the israeli side, but it was destructive of people's understanding of palestinian on the other side. it was bad for both. >> host: talk about the centrality of the palestinian issue for arabs. you do a good job in the book explaning there is in a way no such thing as an arab world, that there's vast differences all the way there many of the countries. many of the countries are quite dissimilar, but the palestinian issue looms large. why is it? >> guest: there is an arab world on the one hand and not on the other. it's like there are catholic sensibilities. there are distinctly arab sensibilities, and one the key issues is palestine. i call it the wound that never healed. in some ways, there's an existential identification that arabs have with that question, and they are people like them who hu
