aaron david miller, david gergen, thanks, guys. >> thank you. >> pleasure. >>> let's get over to michaela now. >> good morning, everyone. voters in washington, missouri, michigan and kansas are headed to the polls today for primary day. in kansas, president obama's distant cousin milton wolf is trying to upset long time incumbent senator pat roberts. meanwhile in mississippi, chris mcdaniel challenged the results of his gop runoff loss to thad cochran. mcdaniel claims thousands of ineligible voters cast ballots. he wants state party officials to declare him the winner. >>> big day tomorrow for army sergeant bowe bergdahl. he'll be questioned about his experience in afghanistan. many of bergdahl's fellow soldiers claimed he deserted his post before the taliban captured him in 2009. bergdahl you'll recall was freed in may for a prison swap for high-ranking taliban members. >>> the u.s. is digging into sub prime car lending beginning with

but i don't understand the public diplomacy going on here. >> aaron david miller, let me bring you in. we still do hear a lot of public talk from officials on both sides about the strength of israel's ties with the u.s. just last week, congress passed more hundreds of millions to fund the iron dome. here you've advised so many secretaries of state on this conflict. do you think we're going to have to wait a couple of years almost for new administrations in the u.s. and here in israel in order to make a fresh start and move forward with the alliance stronger? >> you know, unlike lehman brothers, i think the u.s.-israeli relationship really is too big to fail. but i do agree with dan that there is a lot of dysfunction at the top. there is a lot of mistrust. there is a lot of suspicion. in life, where you stand has a lot to do with where you sit. and benjamin netanyahu and barack obama are sitting in two very different places with two differing set of conflicting pressures. i think when obama looks at netanyahu, he sees a guy who doesn't respect american interests, who is primarily conce

joining me now to discuss the prospects for the cairo negotiations are aaron david miller, a former middle east negotiator for the state department. he's now a vice president and distinguished scholar at the wilson center. and hussein ibish, a senior fellow at the american task force on palestine and a contributing writer for american and middle eastern publications. and we welcome you both back to the "newshour". hussein ibish, what are the prospects they can pull something off in cairo? if not just to extent the cease fire, to do something longer lasting? >> i think it depends. i think the cease fire is likely to hold because i think both parties reached the point of diminishing returns and i think for israel there's no reason to restart hostilities and i don't think hamas can i politically sustain the pushback that would come if they did. i think it's going to be difficult to find a formula that will satisfy hamas and that the israelis and the egyptians can live with, but certainly if the palestinian authority can become a fulcrum, for example being on the other side of the crossing, if

. >> we had aaron david miller on the show the other day arguing that abass has the willingness but not the power to really go forward with a longer term and more serious deal. >> that's part of the case. it's complexion in that the situation has changed in the past days because we're seeing compromises coming out of cairo that i would have thought were impossible a few days ago and hamas is not talking about a long term deal, but about a five year ceasefire. i was told they would agree to international inspection to ensure that they are not using building materials coming into gaza to rebuild bunkers and tunnels, that they would agree to troops of the palestinian authority not only at the rafah crossing with egypt but along the border in that buffer zone israel is demanding, that they would be willing to see the palestinian authority troops there. these are significant compromises from hamas. with netanyahu, it has clear that he has demonstrated the will to move forward and would open the possibility of regional security and stability pact between israel and its neighbors, egypt, saudi

i want to bring in aaron david miller now, the author and former adviser of the arab israeli peace processindy, who is a fellow on the middle east policy at the brookings policy. hello to all of you gentlemen. aaron, president obama said when hamas signs on to a ceasefire, the group is saying it is in control of the various palestinian factions. is that actually happening, or is that hamas's problem right now? >> you know, i think mr. hamdan suggests the degree of confusion that exists now between the military wing, which i would argue are setting the pace of this confrontation and the political leadership. and the problem with the ceasefire effort was that john kerry, the u.n., the qataris and the turks essentially were relying on assessments from the political leadership that the military wing was committed to this. and frankly, khaled meshaal or mr. hamdan outside in qatar are not running the show. the show is being run by a bunch of guys who have high trajectory weapons, who have developed an incredibly sophisticated tunnel infrastructure. and as well khaled may agree or not, believe t
