secretary of state john kerry expressed deep concern over the violent clashes in egypt. kerry urged the country's security authorities to respect the right to peaceful protests. kerry released a statement after talking by telephone with egypt's interim vice president mohamed elbaradei. kerry said meaningful political debate requires the participation of all political groups in the country. he called for the release of political leaders, including morsi. u.n. secretary-general ban ki-moon urged the interim government to ensure the protection of all citizens. he said security forces should respect human rights. ban also said the detained leaders should be freed and he called for dialogue and reconciliation. >>> in kuwait, opposition groups led by the muslim brotherhood have boycotted a parliamentary election, raising concern about deepening political confrontation. the vote took place on saturday after the constitutional court invalidated the last election in december. citing procedural flaws. the december lax was held after the government introduced a new system that allo

i think that what john kerry is doing is diplomacy by attrition. he just kept going back to the middle east again and again and talking to netanyahu, talking to president abbas and trying to get them to the table. this was the one goal that john kerry had his heart set on when he took the job of secretary of state and that does work in his favor. >> aaron, at the same time there's so much else going on. he had to spend a good part of the weekend worrying about egypt. we are going to be talking to ayman muhyeldin very shortly about that where he warned the egyptian authorities that they were on the brink. so can he keep his focus now on these middle east talks or is the rest of the world also blowing up around him? >> it's counterintuitive, andrea. the fact that the middle east is in chaos, civil war in syria, political violence, dysfunction in egypt in a strange way has left the israeli-palestinian arena the most potentially positive area for american engagement. we are not going to intercede in the syrian civil war and there's very little frankly

this is something john kerry really wanted when he took the job of secretary of state. he has taken six trips to the middle east. there have been endless meetings and phone calls, and a lot of diplomacy. until this morning, it looked like he was going to leave the region empty-handed. now, we have this announcement that talks will resume. what mr. kerry used convoluted language. , thatd, as you mentioned there was a basis of an agreement on which the agreement would take place. israeli andwhen palestinian negotiators come to washington next week, they will still just be holding talks about talks. we will not have detailed theussions yet about borders of a future palestinian state, or what would happen to palestinian refugees. it is certainly a breakthrough when you keep in mind that besides have not really talked in three years. >> the key stumbling blocks, the big issues, remain unanswered. we do not know in these talks about talks that they will overcome those. what has john kerry been able to do to get them to agree to even sit in the same room together? >> as i said

secretary of state john kerry has kept his opinions to himself. >> private conversations are the very best way to preserve the time and the space for progress and understanding when you face difficult complicated issues such as middle east peace. >> john kerry is unlikely to let the talks fall apart without a fight. many here in washington say he's been singularly focused on tissue since becoming secretary of state. >> kerry, you have to say, is stuck with it. he's been living this issue every single day, sadly at the exclusion of others, but pretty much in his career. sunday israeli presidency simone peres praised kerry saying he is someone with good intentions to exerted all his efforts to relaunch negotiations. and kerry is now assembling a team that the state department says will be a long up-and-down process. anne-marie. >> tara mergener in washington. thank you, tara. >>> coming up on the "morning news," roller coaster riddle. a woman on a six flags ride falls to her death as investigators try to figure out what caused this tragic accident. this is the "cbs morning news." accide

this was the sixth visit from john kerry to this region. he spent the last four days here trying to make sure he did not go home to the u.s. anti-handed. hamas in gaza has rejected a return to the peace talks. they said the palestinian authority, by doing this, was at odds with the national consensus and they disputed that president abbas. they said he had no legitimate right to negotiate on behalf of the palestinian people. that said, from the israeli side, it was more optimistic here at the justice minister said in a statement this evening that long months skepticism and cynicism we've had. now four years of diplomatic stagnation are about to end. it seems a more optimistic turn from the israeli side. >> the u.s. president has addressed the murder of trayvo a personal matter. he said under different circumstances, the victim could have been him. >> it was a surprise. it was personal, and it was unscripted. an unusual appearance by president barack obama talking about race. >> the issue of the trayvon marintin ruling. walkings a teenager h

and john kerry playing?cannot underestimate that egypt is on the cusp of a huge potential blood bath. the fact of the matter is that we need to understand that the muslim brotherhood represents tens of millions of very angry followers of the post-president morsi. the fact that they're still willing to challenge the military establishment by marching on the security intelligence headquarters is an invitation to a huge blood bath. the fact is that despite all our efforts, despite the aid that the united states provides to egypt, there's very little leverage that we have when we have this potential confrontation about to take place for supreme si over the future of the egyptian state. >> well, let's turn to israel and the potential peace process there. i mean, watching as an observer, you see potential signs of progress. you see a deal being struck to release palestinian prisoners. a referendum put in place so if a peace deal is reached, the israeli public can sign off on it. how hopeful should we be there's go

nobody, i think, including secretary kerry is really optimistic about that. all he has succeeded in getting really, as we say in diplomacy, talks about talks. there comes with these talks a cost. there's a risk that further undermining the legitimacy, whatever little is left, of the palestinian authority. and there's an opportunity cost for the united states of spending as much time as the administration has this last six months on getting this meeting in washington to the detriment of everything else going on around the world. particularly in the middle east. iran, syria, egypt, libya, you name it. the secretary of state's time is not unlimited. the president devotes precious little time to foreign policy as it is. so all the time spent in pursuing a matter that can come to no productive end is important time lost. >> well, if as you say it is potential window dressing, what happens after these talks when they come out with no announcement? >> well, that is one of the downsides. people say, what can you lose by talking? what's the harm? well, the harm is tha

that is what john kerry faces now, even more plausible that was back in those days. it was, at both times, very difficult. the palestinian people and the israeli people want peace enough, i think as far as the palestinians are concerned, the river valley was never mentioned as being controlled by israel until bill clinton was in office. we anticipated that israel would be torn from all of palestine. east of the green land borders. that is a difference now. i am not sure there will ever accept israel controlling the jordan river valley as well as a major portion of the west bank. they are talking about land swaps. i met with one of the most conservative leaders, and he pointed out a land swap that was intriguing that the audience might find interesting. they were going to israel, and let them have it. that acreage of land would be granted to form a corridor between gaza and the west bank. on the corridor would be a railroad and a highly -- and a highway. it looks like a very wonderful future possibility that might occur. these things that you mentioned are very effect

prior to the closed door discussions kerry said that there could not be any military solution to the syrian crisis only a political solution not a political solution is expected to be ironed out at the upcoming geneva two conference co-sponsored by russia and the u.s. however it is no secret that the syrian opposition would like to receive the weapons and military aid that the obama administration recently promised to deliver to rebels that are currently fighting against syrian president bashar al assad that topic was likely addressed when kerry met behind closed doors with the visiting delegation which is being led by the president of the syrian national coalition ahmed jarba what some experts are questioning at the moment is the overall legitimacy of the syrian national coalition critics say the group has no official power and lacks support and recognition inside of syria now the syrian national coalition was founded in doha and is based in is stamboul some see this group as outsiders lobbying for more arms to import into syria's already bloody civil war during the meeting secretar

thank you. >> i am not referring to anything the president said.or secretary kerry said. it seems to us, having met with him and having been involved with them for a long time, that this -- it has been almost a five-year absence to bring the two parties together. they bring zest to any sort of -- have been resistant to any sort of move toward a combination. that in itself is a sign. i mentioned earlier, which i need not repeat, how terrible the question is on both of the leaders to not go to the negotiating table, if it involves the most crucial element, and that is portals -- borders. 1967 borders based on lancelot. -- based on land swaps? that has been the crucial unanswered question for a long time. you know the initiative that began in 2002 has been modified to include the phrase, with lancelot. -- land swaps. netanyahu cannot admit it publicly because he has been promised his to major supporters on the right wing will abandon his government if he does. he will stay mute on the stand. the united states, of course, will be asked by the palestinians to repeat our positi

they are and i think kerry operates that way.but i don't know that they have or they don't have, but i think if they are assuming that based on what we have seen back in the 19 nineties or since the 19 nineties in isn't a prospect .. that the two of them alone, given their politics, given where they are, given where the public opinion is, there isn't a prospect that their chance of agreement will be transformed simply by small measures lie economic progress or not going to the u.n. >> rose: dennis you are in the process of writing a book about the history of these negotiations and casting it forward as well, so i mean, suppose, and i am sure you do, have an opportunity to weigh in, what are the lessons of the past that ought to be applicable to these negotiations now? >> well, i think there are several leverages that stand out. one thing you have to create an environment where outside the negotiations you are creating political space for leaders to make decisions. there is a relationship between what is happening on the ground an
