that's in the west bank and is happening in east jerusalem. this comes down, and i agree with a lot of what both of my colleagues said, even when the disagree with each other, the immediate challenge would look at gaza is clearly humanitarian. you would have to be a sociopath to look at gaza and not feel not just terrible the substance of human responsibility for trying to make things better. but the reality is you can band-aid it all you want. what's absent overwhelmingly, the overwhelming absence or is a political ricin and that's after not just in gaza. it's more obvious it's absent in gaza but it's long been absent in the west bank and for east jerusalem as well. and again i'm old enough to remember the logic after hamas took over gaza which is the community was shut out hamas and people see how bad life is in gaza while we let life flourish in the west bank. and i've watched the past ten years as life in the west bank is basically seen the political horizon for ending occupation despair, settlements constantly expanding, areas being depop

oren liebermann is live in jerusalem. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the u.s.on just cut $100 million from its aid to egypt. that wasn't what the meeting was all about. kushner and the administration are here to re-establish a frapwork for a israeli/palestinian peace process. from that perspective it's smart to get a regional backing for a peace initiative here. now that kushner's in jerusalem set to meet with benjamin netanyahu and mahmoud abbas, he faces a completely different set of challenges. netanyahu who is under criminal investigation, and in response to the investigations has shifted sharply to the right to shore up his own voter base, attacking previous accords and leaving little flexibility with the palestinians. trump and the white house have yet to commit to a two-state solution. the consensus on what it should be, a state of israel and state of palestinian. officials not sure what the trump administration is moving towards if not a two-state solution. the palestinians see little reason to be involved in the process. the fact that kushner is here i

for more, let's go to jerusalem with france 24 correspondent -- uris mackler.here is a storage history. did he address that going into the talks? yes, he did. bestressed there will impartiality. he says he will be even more evenhanded, especially addressing anti-synergism, which is increasing worldwide. is important that the diplomatic segments are seen in the context that israel campaigned on this issue, against unesco, which israel feels does not recognize israel's history in this region, particularly jerusalem, and other areas where the united nations, israel feels, are not treated fairly. what we hear from the new un's secretary-general is he understands those concerns and is committed to being evenhanded and i am sure that was a welcome message to israeli ears. what other subjects are due to be raised today, apart from the peace process? : i think israel's prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, finished speaking with the secretary-general, has been addressing what most concerns him, and that is syria and the uranium presence in syria. it was a message he gave

one is over jerusalem it was actually written by two a journalist. journalists. it is the account of when it starts the days act. it ends about three days after israel became a country. it is a wonderful narrative about the important point in history and i think it is important as we talk about the middle east and that reason of the world. on day one. and it is just amazing. it reads like a novel. and those authors have they have that. right after world war ii when hitler ordered that. why it didn't happen between that. it is a part of history. but those are books on history that have an impact and then there is a book and i should've done the research for it. it's a book on when george marshall did the marshall plan. and how that happened here in congress and impact on my that selects successful. in the rebuilding it really brings home some of the points on why our diplomacy efforts are so important to civility in the broader world. do you find that they discuss books. one of the things that's really interesting. the library library of congress does a lecture se
