eric: what about mach with abbas.istration is biased over israel because of its actions. is this the final opportunity for the palestinians to potentially get it right? >> the palestinians have to play ball because they were main arbiter of what happens in the region. i have said previously the united is moving the embassy to jerusalem that does not portend bad things for the peace process. it clarifies for palestinians that jerusalem will be the recognized capital of the state of israel. it's her to disabuse them of the notion it will be anything other than not. it's not going to do any good for him to take his ball and go home. >> the trump administration is pressuring him a bit. rightfully so to play ball. here is what jared kushner is quoted saying and all cards today. certainly the message directly to the palestinian president. he says, quote, i'm ready to work with president abbas if he wishes. it is ready to go back to the negotiating table we are ready to participate in the discussion. that's not the case, we

out and is evidenced in that is the way that he is trying really to bypass the leadership of mahmoud abbas the palestinian president appealing directly through this interview which is being read by palestinians to the palestinian people themselves saying that perhaps the palace in leadership is scared that palestinians might actually like what was in this deal and saying that mahmoud abbas perhaps doesn't have the ability to take the lead take the leap rather towards a compromise but there are also things which are really obvious by their absence in this interview no mention of settlements of occupation of the very controversial decision by donald trump to recognize jerusalem as israel's capital and indeed to move the u.s. embassy there so the fact that that hasn't been addressed for many palestinians these aren't just mere talking points of the leadership these are very much core principles and as far as leadership is concerned it has reacted with pretty restrained fury to all this the palestinian president's spokesman saying the united states is trying to create false history has been fa
