what is 9 future of israel under this scenario, and if you are benjamin netanyahu right now, are yout a point where you have to pull the trigger first because if he does, you know what the world reaction will be. >> guest: if he does, if it is an offensive operation or a defensive operation, fred, the world reaction will be outramming and castigating israel, and not even sanctions this time around, including this country. after 2012 when, if president obama is reelected, post-2012, he'd have nothing holding him back from carrying out his full fury against israel. this is a man, who in my opinion, and not just opinion, but from looking at his policies and looking at his posture sitting with benjamin netanyahu in the oval office last week when he was schooled by benjamin netanyahu, this is a man who does not like israel. there's a visceral dislike of israel from this administration. we'll get to that in a second, but back to israel pulling the trigger first. with iran, yes. israel is facing a threat. this administration will not strike iran militarily. there's no se scenario under whic

senators to sponsor a resolution showing their support of israel and of prime minister benjamin netanyahu a vision like this whereas the united states has long recognized that a return to the one nine hundred sixty seven lines would create a strategic military vulnerability for israel and greatly impede its sovereign right to defend its borders another thing in the in the resolution it says whereas prime minister of israel benjamin netanyahu correctly stated that the one nine hundred sixty seven lines were not boundaries of peace they are the boundaries of repeated war just a few provisions there in the resolution that was introduced this week bipartisan resolution many many senators signing their names on the bill meanwhile there are multiple issues both domestic and international that senators can't seem to agree on but this one well as i said it's going to support from all sides now earlier i spoke to alexander coburn he's coeditor of counterpunch as well as a contributing writer to the nation magazine he told me why he thinks that several notable senators were willing to line up behin

with benjamin netanyahu, he accepted the "no" to nuclear power. >> with what they are taking to the referendum we will have to say goodbye to nuclear power ans. >> this is a second blo after the poor showing of his party and allies in local elections. this covered the issues of nuclear power and asked if they wanted the government to privatize the water supply. the embattled prime minister would smile for the cameras, but his grip on power may be slping >> mor mtingon dealing with greece's debt. >> and just how to help greece out. concensus is building among eurozone member states is a soft restructuring of greece's debt. there could be effects in the eurozone with a default in the debt. it would involve bringing in private banks for new los. th finance ministers will meet to solidify plans. a final decision is set for the end of the month. >> this is a worst-case scenario for bond holders. a debt restructuring could also be costly. this pushes up the price of greek government debt. the cost of credit defau swaps has doubled since 2010, and one million euros of the debt costs 100,000 euros. th

between obama and the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu there were many who stayed that netanyahu is a recent visit there so obama backtracking on what he what he said and essentially becoming a puppet of netanyahu you could see the there was not a lot of chemistry in this meeting but i think not too much would be to this kind of music would you say that the relationship between the united states and israel is colder than it's ever been before. with all of the united states we would be in a much more difficult position not only because of the veto but because of the support that we get from them. i think the relationship it's not only on the political level it's also cultural and ideological. they know that we are so far the only or the most important democracy in the middle east do not think a bomber has lost credibility in the arab world there was so much hope when he came to power and he certainly seems to have remained a very close friend of israel as you say i think that. the palestinians put a lot of hope. in the obama administration to be the honest broker. i think they sti

benjamin netanyahu said israel will not allow them to do it. the pictures you're seeing are just coming in to us. syria reporting three people including a child have been killed. cnn not able to independently confirm that and there's no confirmation of that from israeli forces either. a wide scale international campaign called for protests in the west bank, gentlemen ruse leem and along israel's border with israel, lebanon and jordan. kevin flowers joins us from the west bank. what are you seeing from your vantage point? >> reporter: well, t.j., we're seeing a repeat of mass protests that took place last month on may 15th and that was the first time we had seen these mass protests taking place along the borders of israel, it happened in gaza, in lebanon and syria and the west bank and it appears to be happening today as you mentioned in syria, several dozen protesters, pro-palestinian protesters approaching that border fence, the border area, met by tear gas and warning shots by the israeli military. syrian tv has said three people have been ki

he is right about this than with benjamin netanyahu. i think the jewish lobby told our speaker to invite him. i am appalled when we talk about the afghan government being corrupt. i feel all of our congressmen, senators -- they all take lobbyist monday -- money. they were responsible for the invasion of iraq. it is all about saddam hussein' about what happened to the buses in tel aviv in the 1990's. the one thing i cannot understand is why did they do why does israel want -- is a the banking system? guest: i have to start with your basic premise. i remember years ago when i played on a little league and i remember when i coached my children, sometimes you lost the ball game and sometimes it did not come out like you wanted it to. certainly when we see people not liking decisions that congress make -- i think the charge may be for you to totally appreciate is there are a great many of individuals in congress who fully believe israel has been one of the strongest allies for the united states and they have been a huge part of us in terms o

they're now benjamin netanyahu he personally in the state of israel owes me five or six thousand dollars back worth my friggin money so the iraqis are also asking for their money back iraqis we won't repay us so the head of iraqi parliament's foreign affairs committee called. boxer's comments stupid and said quote this provokes us and the iraqi people as well to demand compensations for losses iraq suffered during the invasion again you know the united states chose this war it wasn't a war of necessity to go into iraq they chose to spend three trillion dollars and now they're trying to charge these people they killed a million iraqis destroyed their entire culture looted the museums and trashed all the architectural sites and now they're demanding money is just the same robotic or who sells popcorn on t.v. i don't know rohrbacher so again he's had zero luck shaking down the iraqis or the libyans but we're having a lot a lot shaking down our allies in the west us foresees forty six million dollars twenty eleven military sales so the united states plans to export forty six point one billio

weekly cabinet meeting the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said that his soldiers had been trained in quality control but that if this fails they are all orders to shoot if necessary now we almost see the reports of clashes that have broken out in the west bank as you say things are conditional quiet on the northern border but that certainly could change in the coming hours or it seems that it is ready troops what work well prepped for something like this are well prepared one. that's likely will go prepared as i say the call did go out and also a very similar incident happened on may the fifteenth at that time be exact same chord went out for palestinians living in lebanon syria gaza and the west bank so again try and and infiltrate israel to cross the border with israel at that time there were thousands of people who feed it backward and if ten people were killed when clashes broke out along the israeli syrian border and hundreds of people actually crossed back water into is also is will very much try not to seem piece of what happened several weeks ago that particular in
