is apparently on the agenda at the annual american israeli public affairs committee gathering or a peg that has kicked off in washington if the plan becomes in a just lation it could oblige the u.s. to support israel diplomatically and militarily if a strike so wrong it could also examined israel from anywhere duction in foreign aid that might result from budget cuts the conflict with the palestinians however is not some for discussion at the gathering of america's most powerful pro israel a group and what's more neither of the country's leaders all the attending and that's prompting speculation that the group is known on guess powerful as it used to be. there is a lot of belief that the. israel lobby is losing the clout. davis. series of reversals bush about the election the reelection of obama was a reversal where the israeli go clearly need clearly anyone that obama to be reelected feel badly run then their candidate for secretary of state was susan rice she was our john kerry came in they didn't want john kerry so that was your second defeat and then just had the spectacular defeat

this say about the latest development in the case as a whole and could come on the story just one more peg in a trend of police brutality this year to talk about all that more i'm joined by our correspondent margaret howell thank you so much for coming on the show was there so you know you've been you've actually been following this story for a while and i'm wondering with skis is like these it seems like public opinion always kind of turns toward toward the police you know they always kind of favor the police narrative on this how how widespread it is how widespread is this we actually know how often this sort of thing happens in the u.s. it is a pandemic i'm telling you we're taught as a society to trust cops not to question them not to question their motives and you know unfortunately that's an old thing and we're seeing this more often than not you know cops are policing themselves so maybe it's time to get a new narrative in this country because obviously leaving cops up to you know police themselves just isn't working you know i hear do we even know how often this happens so it seems
