tell us more about what mahmoud abbas had to say? >> hi there. well, he still is speaking. it's been an hour now. what was very unique to this talk, it's the first time we have seen him go into detail as to why he thought the talks with the israelis were going nowhere at this time, pointing the finger to israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu. he said that binyamin netanyahu, from the start, was not a viable partner in this, stating that every time he put in requests to u.s. secretary of state john kerry binyamin netanyahu replied that he didn't trust mahmoud abbas. he discussed what would keep the palestinians in the talk if it goes beyond the april 29th deadline, it-suspended by is -- it had been suspended by the israelis, but president mahmoud abbas said to go forward with the talks, the israelis have to give them the last batch of 30 prisoners they are waiting on to be released. it was discussed last year to have the talks begin. he said they must discuss the borders, the borderses of a future palestine state. they must discuss the borders with jerusalem as its capit

this is cairo and it's very hard into some stage mahmoud is telling him we can't go on like this becauset smells already. they handed him over to a hospital and left him there and what we know is that according to witnesses and records he was then buried in a common grave more of us. >> it appears that an egyptian son if you will outsmarted himself because he gave the impression to the german son that the body had been donated to science and then his plan was to return and claim the body and put chaim in the family crypt where he felt he belonged. when he went back they said you are not related. you are not a loud relative of this man. we don't just give obvious to anyone anyone and then they said the thing we do with an unclaimed body is to put it into a common grave. >> just a question about predictor. this was his younger son who kept in touch with him who flew to see him on a few occasions and wrote him coded letters who he still likes and you of course interviewed him and he acknowledged to you. why was he never held responsible for any of that or would he have been held accountable

this is, i guess, what mahmoud abbas is chasing on this trip.king to the arab league, and arab states and saying "will you support us? ". >> that's right. he's trying to secure a financial safety net, if it will, if israel withholds the tax money that it collects on behalf of the palestinians, talking around 100 million a month to 150 million, and they have done it before, and it has a devastating impact on the economy in the west bank. the growth is slowing. he has signed the 15 international treaties. he wants the arab states on board the decision that he's making, they want him to agree to that. if israel takes the punitive measures, it's a threat that he has the backing and money coming in to sustain things. the fear is he withholds the tax because things are not going well on the peace talk fronds. we've had a development from the israeli prime minister, where he is basically told his ministers to stop relations with the palestinians. the cabinet minister, about issues of security will be discussed and the israeli negotiator can still carry

and a dramatic speech by mahmoud abbas, palestine president. he said that israel is procrastinating, that they have promised to release the batch of prisoners that were supposed to be released this weekend. that's why john kerry came to save the process, because the prisoners were not released. abbas says "we are sick and tired of waiting, we will not wait any more", he said they'll go to international organizations to seek state hood or representation. and at that point basically he has done what he promised not to do so long as the talks were going on. now, he has not left the talks, but he has done what israel says he must do in order not to leave the talks. at this point abbas perhaps has killed the talks by going to the international organizations he promised not to. the ball is in is recall's court. they need to decide whether to continue the talks regardless of the shuttle diplomacy of john kerry. >> why has he gone this route when an hour ago there was believed to be a deal in the works? >> there certainly was a deal on the tail. it was
