and tom goldstein, founder of scotusblog.com. let's go back to the root of this challenge, julie, why did this come up? >> because people who opposed the law found what appeared to be a drafting area saying companies were only available in the state based exchange and decided to sue perhaps trying to get another bite of the apple trying to invalidate or make a mess of the law. it comes down to whether or not this was a mistake or something congress intended to do when it wrote just that one sentence. >> the whole point of the subsidies was to put the a in affordable care, right? >> that's exactly right. if this were to go away, about 5 million people would see premium increases of 76 portion. most people buying insurance on the exchanges are getting subdz cities, subdz cities are fairly large. if the subsidies were not available basically insurance would become unaffordable and the individual mandate requirement for people to have insurance does not apply to people for whom insurance is unaffordable. >> ifill: the courts ruled th

joining me now, brooke goldstein. we talked about how is the media going to cover this? part of this is battle for peoples' hearts and minds. and a propaganda war by some. what's happening now, now israel is trying to close down the tunnels you're seeing the death. you're seeing people get killed in tunnels as they try to get into israel. you're seeing children, wind up murdered in gaza. and you're seeing the reporters come out and start to get very emotional about the death toll they're witnessing with their own eyes. it's important and not helpful for the israeli side. >> it's not helpful for either side for the media to be reporting death tolls that, i think at this point have been shown to be inaccurate. al jazeera reported that the majority of deaths were adult males. yet, we're hearing un report that the majority of deaths are children so i think it's incumbent on the media at this point to report the facts they don't know what the facts are, to say that. and we're also seeing now is a manipulation by the media of the laws of our own conflict. painting israel engag

atan goldstein thank you very much, joining us from tel aviv. i'll talk to a palestinian american comedian who makes jokes about his background. this time the conflict in the middle east has hit very close to him. one of his young cousins beaten, another killed. has this changed his perspective on the situation and tempered his comedy? we'll ask him next. i know. and thank you so much for that. i think we should get a medicare supplement insurance plan. right now? [ male announcer ] whether you're new to medicare or not, you may know it only covers about 80% of your part b medical expenses. it's up to you to pay the difference. so think about an aarp medicare supplement insurance plan, insured by unitedhealthcare insurance company. like all standardized medicare supplement insurance plans, they help cover some of what medicare doesn't pay. i did a little research. with a medicare supplement plan, you'll be able to stay with your doctor. oh, you know, i love that guy. mm-hmm.

house let it be known the new president and a number of advisers were reading this book guy gordon goldsteint was a history of the war told through the lens of an adviser. the thesis of the book is that even though eisenhower had put the first few hundred military advisers in vietnam had president kennedy lived longer than he did we probably wouldn't have seen the same huge escalation as we saw under president johnson. kennedy brought the number from eisenhower levels up to 9,000 men but the thesis was that kennedy would have been more restrained and over time would have resisted a bigger war. after he died president johnson was basically too insecure about foreign policy and military issues to resist making the war bigger so l.b.j. slid down the slope into what turned into a huge war that would not end until the 1970s and until more than 50,000 americans were killed and our country was transformed by the accompanying trauma. >>> just under two weeks ago president obama made a somber announcement that he was ordering up to 300 american military advisers to go back into iraq. president obama

brooke goldstein director of the law fair project. brooke, good to see you tonight.ays was put into place because the rocket fell very close to the airport. on the other side is the fact that we don't have a similar ban in place over pakistan or afghanistan, over yemen. and as i pointed out last night, even over the part of ukraine where a commercial airliner was shot down. we put one in place after the commercial airline was shot down, but in the week prior to that we had several jets shot down there and we did not have a ban in place. so one rocket, you know, near this airport in israel had people saying really. what do you think? >> i think we have to give the faa the benefit of the doubt given the malaysian airways flight being downed and the rocket landing near ben gurion airport. i don't think this amounts to an economic boycott of israel. but there are some legitimate reasons why many people think this was politically motivated. and i think the number one reason is because it was reversed in a matter of hours. and nothing has changed on the ground. the rockets

. >> brooke goldstein director of the law fair project. that supposedly john kerry caught by surprise while he was sitting for round robin interviews with all the sunday talk shows. our own chris wallace is the only one to confront him with it. he said it while the cameras were on him while his microphone was on him. and then people started to question why is he criticizing israel. a hell of a pinpoint operation. he's basically suggesting a pinpoint operation that it's not effective that they're killing a lot of civilians and chris wallace asked him about it. did he tip his hand? was that an intentional thing? >> who's to say it was intentional? but what it seems to show is that kerry is imputing by his sarcastic statement that there's some sort of blood lust on behalf of the israeli defense force is that it's a hell of a pinpoint operation when said sarcastically means they're doing the opposite engaged in indiscriminate attacks and not doing everything they have to do. >> what does that tell you about his state of mind? about the adminis

brooke goldstein human rights attorney. what does that mean for us?i think it means we have to pay attention very, very closely because there are several reasons why americans should care very deeply about this current conflict. and number one because of 9/11. because hamas and al qaeda are the same type of islamist terrorist groups that are theologically motivated with the goal of destroying the west. and hamas is attacking israel not because it's engaged in some sort of civil rights battle for the palestinian people for palestinian sovereignty. we know hamas does not care about the palestinian people because they are using them as human shields. hamas is attacking israel israel as the outpost of the west in the middle east. and it knows if we abandon israel, if we allow israel to be destroyed, then we are next. and it can destroy us. and the only reason why hamas has not been able to kill more americans abroad, it has killed americans in israel, is because the israeli counterterror naval and air blockade and ground blockade of hamas. >> when you des

her being close the borders in ninety four in response to beirut goldstein who ended up massacring twenty nine palestinians and he brought in he thought in order to avoid the chance of there being repercussions i'm going to close the borders i was there several times with u.s. led delegations with vice president gore with ron brown where palestinians from one part of the territories couldn't come and see the vice president or couldn't come and see the secretary because they couldn't get permits or they couldn't get through from gaza to the west bank so this issue of closer actually was the most destructive post office low development you know i i bring that up because. i thought that one of the most interesting stories that came out of the iraq conflict is you know iraq is a seven thousand year old civilization is to be scenario the epic of gilgamesh takes place there and there had never been a suicide bomber in the history of iraq until the united states invaded crashed the economy and created this massive desperation so you don't kill themselves unless they have no reason to live let's

i'm amy goldstein. the report highlights the improvement in the longevity, two factors. a variety of features of the cme and a slowdown inpatient hospital expenditures. i wonder if you can talk about the relative proportions of each in explaining the improvement and what specifically at this point can make any difference? >> i think that what we see -- and we have talked about it today, what is happening on the medicare side. as the report reflects the error number of things coming the other. in terms of direct attribution the question at this point in time is our ability to get to the level of the question your asking about the reid is something difficult to do that, and we have not done. will we know and with the report reflects some of the changes that were made how they're getting along with weather and thus the medicare had riches changes or other changes that have occurred. what it emphasizes is that what of it one has said it, we need to focus on longer-term texas, very much on social security because it is right in front of us in every 20 to do a couple things. l

goldstein the american legion and mr. britain to set up a command center to connect veterans there with health services like those we are talking about today as well's benefits and by every measure most important way in talking directly with veterans it was very successful so i want to thank you and i want to thank dr. mccarthy. she mentioned the mobile vet center and other resources that are being directed to el paso all of which i think should tell us that we have a problem in el paso that we are now belatedly trying to correct into six. during that time when especially access to mental health care was so problematic i had the opportunity to meet a young veteran named nick and his mom bonnie who came to a town hall meeting at mine. nick was having a hard time accessing mental health care services at the el paso va and shared that with me and my team but also with their to hear veterans who served as far back as korea and vietnam and the gulf war, share their frustration with not being able to get into the va. as you was

i'm amy goldstein with "the washington post." for secretary burwell, the report essentially attributes the improvement in the h.i. trust fund's longevity to two factors. one, a variety of features of the aca and two slowdown in particularly in-patient hospital expenditures. i'm wondering if you can talk about the relative proportions of each in explaining the improvement and the trust fund, and what specifically in the aca at this point is making a difference. thank you. >> i think that the -- i think what we see and talked about today is what is happening on the medicare side and as the report reflects, it is a number of things coming together. in terms of the direct attribution and percentage terms as we have seen recently, gdp numbers and that kind of thing, the ability to get it to the question you're asking about, attribution at percentage levels i think is something very difficult to do and we have not done. i think what we do know and the report reflects is a number of thing that is are contributing to that and try to refl
