abbas, president abbas said was that the agreement will be on hold if the palestinians decide in sometime in the future that israel did not live up to the agreement. it was a very convoluted sentence. i can tell you here that he was, he did intend to say that the palestinians walked away from the agreement, but under extreme pressure from both the united states and also jordan and egypt, he took it back and put it on a conditional way. at the same time mr. netanyahu was also in a way, i wouldn't say conciliatory, but he reiterated his speech from 2009 where he talked about a two-state solution for two people. so in a way i think that there is enough here for the quartet, and especially for the americans to try and reengage and try and jump start a political process between israel and the palestinians. >> one of the main palestinian grievances is the continued building of settlements in the west bank, and that has a very permanent feel to it. it changes the complexion of the west bank, and it creates the sort of thing that you think you can't work around. is that the kind of thing you can

what can abbas do to make israel recognize abbas's decision. >> the palestinian authority is not goingo dissolve. right now the palestinian authority is engaging in security coordination with israeli police security forces. the international community is footing the bill for the policing of palestinians without any obligations of israel as an occupying power which remains in effective control of the territory, so what abbas should do is actually annul oslo according which have lead to the status quo. what he won't do is exablgsly that. the speech was intended as a symbolic gesture that if the u.s. does not pressure israel to return to the negotiating table based on u.n. security council resolutions 242, and other international law that that is the effective status quo, we're going to have to see it to believe it. >> let me ask you this. we heard it earlier today, one of our analysts suggested that giving all of the authority over to israel might force netenyahu to come to the table because then he'll have all of the responsibility. is there not an argument to made that since netenyahu

abbas use his speech at the u.n. general assembly to cle claire malstennians are no longer bounds by the oslo acords. he accused israel of breaking the agreement meant to provide a basis for peace. >> heavy fighting between the talibantable and afghan amy. thetaltable have retaken areas they lost to government troops backed by nato. >>> to china where there has been another explosion in a southern town a day after a series of bombs killed seven people and injured more than 50 others. the latest blast happened in a rural county in the gounchi region. this is a day after experiences. a criminal act and 33-year-old local man has been identified as a suspect. china is celebrating its national day. ffrt,000 gathered in tiananmen square. it commemorates the founding of the republic of china. a 7-day holiday known as golden week will follow. another key date is being commemorated in the far west of chi china. people are marking the 60th anniversary of becoming an autonomous region. a top-ranked party leader gave a speech to

palestinian president mahmoud abbas has used his speech at the u.n.ssembly to declare he's no longer bound by the oslo accords, accusing israel of violating the peace agreement. >>> two turkish shoulders were shot dead to their way to work by suspected kurdish fighters it happened in the southeastern province. dozens of security officers and hundreds of fighters have been killed since the ceasefire deal collapse ed in july. >>> there has been another explosion in a town in southern china. a day after a series of parcel bomb blasts there. the latest explosion was in an apartment block. no injuries are being reported. on wednesday seven people were killed and dozens injured in 17 explosions at government offices think a hospital and prison. police have ruled out terrorism and have identified a 33-year-old local man as a pictures. as a suspect. they say he wanted to take revenge on society. meanwhile chinese people are celebrating national day more than 50,000 watched the national flag being raised. the ceremony commemorates the founding of the communist

>> president abbas has said that's something we need. he said threatening palestinians because they are not implementing the oslo agreement. we would like to see the president is really serious about calling for oslo agreement. actually the situation worsen, that we are living in very worse situation after oslo. nothing been actually giving -- especially for the palestinians, there's going to be a palestinian state. israeli expansion policy is still going on. 60% of the palestinian land has been confiscated. when it comes to the oslo, the outcome of oslo, after 20, 22 years, it's totally disaster to the palestinians. so i do believe what president abbas has said is positive, to say that we will look at the oslo agreement, if israelis have commitment to this agreement, they have commitment to any of these terms of the agreement, this is what we respect. if they are not, we will reject and -- >> that's the crucial question. the crucial question is, will president abbas follow-through with his threat? will the palestinian authority be disma

. >> criticizing, again, the iran nuclear agreement and palestinian leader mahmoud abbas. you heard it all, john. >> i did. >> we did not expect netanyahu to focus so heavily on the iran nuclear agreement. was anything different in his message today? >>reporter: it was a bit of a snub from mahmoud abbas trying to get the palestinian conflict on top of the national agenda and achieved that but it was hardly mentioned at all by the israeli prime minister. we have been told that he was not going to spend so much time this year at the general assembly concentrating on the issue of iran, that he had moved on with that and the main reason is that he's to meet with president obama in november. to most of the rest of the world, the iran nuclear deal is now a done deal. however, that was not the way it turned out and prime minister netanyahu spoke at length about iran and dominated really most of his address here at the general assembly. he did make overtures towards president obama though ahead of that meeting coming up in november saying that the bond between israel and the unite

those are abbas' words.ding a 13-year-old palestinian boy that as it turns out wasn't killed but wounded after he stabbed another teen his same age. now surveillance video shows that 13-year-old and his 15-year-old cousin running away after the attack. that palestinian teen is now in a hospital here in israel being treated. his 15-year-old cousin, however, was killed. so prime minister netanyahu accused abbas of really spreading lies like the supposed death of the 13-year-old and trying really to insight violence. netanyahu also defended his country's military and police against accusations of excessive force. so, really, greta, thursday was about the politics. remember, it's friday morning. around 2:30. a little after 2:30 friday morning. thursday was about the politics. the jabs being traited between both sides, abbas and netanyahu, and, of course, all of this as secretary of state going to jordan to start talks between. whether that happens, greta, who knows. prime minister netanyahu says he is willing to

it's time that president abbas stops not only justifying for it, but calling for it.ys he wants to see more blood spilled in jerusalem, and it's time for the international community and fair-minded people to make that distinction, stop justifying murder, and stop calling for murder. >> reporter: mr. prime minister this is [ inaudible ] from the bbc. you said you are open to international intervention. we understand that secretary of state john kerry will come here. he is likely to say that you should go back to the negotiating table. what will you say to him if you don't believe negotiations is on the way forward, what is the way out? >> he is going to call on me? are we living on the same planet, liz? i have been calling day in, day out in every forum, in every congress, i haven't done so in nepal, because i haven't visited, i have called on president abbas to resume unconditional negotiations immediately. right now as we speak, we can meet. i have no problem with that. i think we should stop immediately this wave of incitement against israel and these attacks, murde

abbas is a total failure. all he can do is hand over occupation and resign because israel has spoken and clearly, israeli voters have decided over and over that they were more for segregation and more for denying palestinian rights and they want doimghts and thedowmghtsdominat. they said it over and over again. >> deceitful encourages lawlessness will he continue on that trajectory tomorrow in his speech or will you hear something different from him? >> i think he will talk about iran and other negotiations, he is negotiating with the leader of hamas, he is negotiating a five year ceasefire. this is israel policy and whatever -- and this government, what this government wants is ceasefire with gaza and total occupation annexation of the west bank. nothing else. this is all they want and i think it's proved that left and right in israel are thinking in that direction and in those terms. netanyahu is not anything other than an utah buyin auto autobo . you will see the rise of violence, not the west bank or gaza,

he was here in ramallah today meeting with president mahmood abbas. they will have a challenge to try to calm things down on the streets. we managed to speak to the secretary general and we'll have a listen to what they have to say. >> subtle diplomacy from jerusalem to the occupied west bank. the u.s. secretary general reiterates his call for calm after what he calls a dangerous escalation. president mahmood abbas makes it clear that the palestinians have a right to protect themselves, he wants to return to negotiations with the israelis, a message he'll bring with secretary of state john kerry when he meets with him on frid friday. >> secretary of state knows exactly what we want. return to negotiations based on international legitimacy. settlement expansion is illegal. we know it. let's put that on the table and we'll return to negotiations. >> abbas said that they had no choice but to ask for international protection. the recent violence is not just been about israel's occupation, but more specifically and crucially the fear that israel wants to c

mahmoud abbas said the boy was killed. and binyamin netanyahu said the boy is alive, and there's a picture of him laying in bed. his 15-year-old cousin was shot and killed, where a 13-year-old israeli boy was stabbed. who can stop the violence. mahmoud abbas and binyamin netanyahu may be the wrong men at the wrong time to do it. mahmoud abbas is 80 years old, and a weak leader who can't risk an election likely seeing hamas win in the west bank. binyamin netanyahu says he wants peace talks, buts only if the palestinians recognise israel as the sit of the jewish people, leaving the status of 2 million arabs in israel and east jerusalem in question. that's a non-startser for the palestinians. what is needed is leaders that can inspire faith that a settlement is possible, one that can bring peace and security to israelis and palestinians. restoring faith and peace in the holy land. that is really "third rail". >>> this is al jazeera america. i'm richelle carey, and here are the top stories. the nuclear deal in iran is in force

mawmedz abbas was talking about the oslo accords and saying that nobody is living up to them. what does that mean? >> it's not entirely clear ali awhat that means and he has not really made it clear what it means. what is clear is there's still some palestinian authority presence in the west bank areas but it's not all clear to me. what was lacking in his speech is he didn't at all state what it is and how it is he intends to take palestinians to the next level. he didn't articulate that he supports the boycott, vie vestment and sanction he proposal that the vast majority of palestinians have signed on to, a division of leadership, all that being said, we don't needs to rely on mahmoud abbas, this is a generation that's saying very clearly it's about obtaining our freedom and we want it now. >> diana, it's good to see you. she was previously an advisor to palestinian authority mahmoud abbas. that is our show for today. i'm ali velshi. thank you for joining us. >> surge of violence. new clashes and protests erupt in the west bank and gaza. u.n. city council emergency meeting to

abbas told the u.n. general assembly in new york that since israel has continued its settlement activity, he considers the treaty to have been scrapped. drawn up back in 1993, the oslo accords were intended to pave the way for palestinian self-determination and bring peace for israel. let's go to our correspondent, tanya cramer, standing by in jerusalem. what is going on here, tanya? every year before a general assembly at the u.n., we're told that abbas is going to say something earthshattering. was this a bombshell? or how's it going down where you are? a a bombshell. it was expected, he's talking about the oslo accords, but he delivered one at the end but one that raises a lot of questions even over here because what does he mean in practical terms, what is the intention of the palestinian leadership right now, will they translate the statement into concrete steps because that would mean at the end that they would, for example, end the already controversial security cooperation with israel or dismantl

abbas sent to the u.n. secretary general to put the palestinian states under the protection of the human -- protection of the u.n. he received a letter saying this was being considered in the secretariat. the secretariat has disregarded the appropriate study. we do hope the secretary-general will officially convey the results of this to the security council. thank you very much mr. president. >> i would like to thank you for your statement. i now give the floor to the ambassador of france. mr. president, i would like to thank jordan for having taken the initiative of convening this meeting. --ould like to thank france, hast of been over the past few months, mourning over the unrest in the middle east. now we see that happening in the backdrop of the expansion of settlements, which is illegal, which comprises each day to viability of the palestinian state and the absence of a peace process. we have mobilized in order to draw attention to a political lasting solution to the only possible solution to the confl

instead, president abbas defended the rioters and lit the spark which set our region a place. he declared, and i quote, we welcome every drop of blood spilled in jerusalem. with the help of allah, everyone would be in heaven and every wounded will get his reward. the church of the holy sepulture is ours. everything is ours, all ours. governor right to desecrate and with their filthy feet. i repeat, jews have no rights to desecrate it with their filthy feet. can you imagine the reaction if the israeli leader, any leader for that matter, would've uttered such a hateful sentiment? the security council would have rightly wasted no time in containing to condemn it. yet when the president of the palestinian authority make such a blatantly prejudiced statement, the reaction of this council is complete silence. mr. president, even now as the violence continues and lives are lost every day, instead of calm intention, palestinian leaders continue to live and use inflammatory rhetoric. they are stoking the flames by portraying kerry's as innocent victims. just two days ago in a televised

he also was joined by president mahmoud abbas. kerry and netanyahu speaking just before their talks this morning. secretary -- netanyahu: there is no question that this wave of violence is driven by a incitement -- by incitement. we have to stop incitement. i think it is time the international community told -- stops president abbas. today, you and i can really reach into that process and conversation. secretary kerry: i talked to the king yesterday. i talked to president abbas. i believe people want this. so, let's go to work and see what we can do. catherine: let's get more on the talks now with our correspondent in berlin. it did not seem like any real breakthrough is on the -- is on course for these talks today. reporter: no hope really to be inspired there. u.s. secretary of state john kerry arrived in berlin this morning to meet with benjamin netanyahu in an attempt to try and work towards the fueling tension -- towards the fueling -- towards defueling tension. kerry and netanyahu stood together and called for an end to the

that's the threat issued by palestinian president mahmoud abbas, he went before the u.n. general assembly yesterday, and said that palestine won't either conform to the accords. >> translator: israel has left us no choice to insist that we will not be the only one commitmented to the implementation of those agreements. >> reporter: the oslo accords first signed in 1993, in the front of yassir arafat and yit yitsak r abin, firsts time israel and palestine recognized each other, israel remains in control of much of the west bank even though the agreements called for full palestinian authority by 1999. and as many as threfned,000 additional israelis -- 300,000 israelis have settlein, checkpoints continue to be monitored by israel. and abbas once again called for the release of over 6,000 palestinians in israeli prisons. >> translator: we therefore declare that we cannot continue to be bound by these signed agreements with israel. and israel must assume full responsibility as an occupying power. >> reporter: the threats to dissolve the palestinian authority would under intern

my first question to mahmoud abbas, i have one for you, too, mr secretary-general. what message are you taking to the secretary of state, what practical measures are you taking to put pressure on israel to end the occupation to bring hope to the street for a genuine plan, and i'll ask you what you mean by international protection, and my question to you is that it's a great message that you are here, but we have seen in the past, whenever there's a u.n. resolution at the security council level critical of israel, that it is vetoed by the united states. what practical moves can you go to put pressure on a tense situation that is genuinely planned to move norwood for a 2-state solution and end to the occupation. thank you. >> translation: providing protection to the palestinian people is our responsibility, we must do all what we can and use all tools to provide protection to our people. however, in the face of these barbarian acts committed by the israeli settlers, and those perpetrated by the israeli army, armed civilians and children, and the youse of live bullets

president mahmood abbas has a request for the united nations.s a south carolina officer who threw a teenager to the ground finds out if he still has a job.

[indiscernible] president abbas has accused israel of trying to change the status quote. he claimed that israel intends to [indiscernible] this is a deliberate and malicious lie. palestinian leaders have repeated this outlandish conspiracy theory over and over again and it is baseless. as we heardnister today, he has stated time and time again including from the podium in the u.n. general assembly, israel is committed to the status quo. we continue to protect the right of muslims to pray in the mosque as well as the freedom of all christian, jews and others to visit the temple mount. the facts speak for themselves. israel has maintained the status quo and will keep on doing so. let me be crystal clear. israel will not agree to any international presence on the temple mount. such a presence would be the change in the status quo. since 1960 seven israel has been doing everything in its power to preserve the sanctity of this site. we do this out of deep and abiding respect for the principle of freedom of religion and the [indiscernible] to the temple mount. yet it is clear t

later he will then meet with palestinian president mahmoud abbas. it is unclear what the secretary of state can actually do to end the violence. >> mayhem caught on camera, moments later gunmen opened fire in a bus station in southern israel. in the town of beersheba short after dark. one soldier died and several others including civilian and security force members were wounded. the attack came as u.s. secretary of state john kerry prepares to meet with officials to restore calm. >> later in the week i will meet with prime minister netanyahu because he will be in germany and i'm coming through at that moment. we will meet there. >> reporter: kerry also plans to speak with mahmoud abbas. >> if you want a solution can you not talk about the two parties as though there is a false symmetry. you have to really engage to bring israel into compliance with international humanitarian law and with the requirements of peace. but to do business as usual once again can be extremely dangerous and counterproductive. >> israeli officials disagree. they say the u.s.

and yesterday we heard mahmoud abbas blame israel. in that context. is there much chance the peace process will get back on track. >> well, i think it's very lit: it was clear that both sides were more interested in blaming each other. it's unlikely that there will be much progress. i think equally important is what was not said at the united nations over the past few days, particularly in president obama's speech, he didn't mention israel, palestine or a resumption of the peace process. the silence on the conflicts, together with the statements and some of the harsh language and changes between mahmoud abbas and others suggest that if some diplomatic process is renewed. unfortunately, it's unlikely to go anywhere. >> a final question. binyamin netanyahu argued israel would work with arab partners and that common dangers were bringing them closer, is that an exaggeration or is israel getting support from arab countries in the middle east. >> i think behind the scenes there has been cooperation, particularly with records to the threats by i.s.i.s. and

he needs the arabs with him. >> are they willing to be alongside hamas or abbas? >> well, if you look at the saudis involved in yemen, it's very difficult for them to focus on jerusalem. the egyptians are involved in fighting against isis and libya against the other jihadi groups. so there is a regional pressure. so this is where the role of the united states, of mr. kerry in particular to call for a summit, have all of them, then he will have a consensus to back him against the more radicals and isolate them. >> i have to go, but you make it seem quite easy in terms of getting all those parties to the table and that conversation could pretty much settle this issue. is it that simple, quickly for me. >> it is not simple because you have a network, violent network trying to bring down the architectural of peace going on for the last 20 years. peace was signed 20 years ago at camp david. the only way is isolate the network and the only way is bring down the arabs together. >> okay. we will be talking about this as we see if this tension, in its current state can be

president abbas, here is a good place to begin. stop spreading lies about israel's alleged intentions on the temple mounts. israel is fully committed to maintaining the status quo there. what president abbas should be speaking out against are the actions of militant islamists, who are smuggling explosives, and trying to prevent jews and christians from visiting the holy sites. that is the real threat to these sacred sites.
