of hamas.e also went through very religious neighborhoods and spoke with people you would think would be inclined to support hamas. i met a man, 49 years old, his son was killed fighting against israel. he was a proud member of fatah. he told me that during the last election, he voted for hamas. he voted for hamas because he wanted change. his wasn't an ideological commitment to hamas's way of thinking. he wanted change. now, he's been completely disappointed by hamas because he said, and i quote, he said "first we were ruled by generous thieves. now we're ruled by stingy thieves." this is pretty much what we found everywhere. women who would cry and say send gilad shalit back, the israeli soldier so they'll open the borders again. >> charlie: why don't they do that? >> the long-term strategy is one thing. israel had a strategy of pressuring people through the blockade, put pressure on hamas. what we found was the blockade succeeded. it has created tremendous pressure on people and perhaps that

: so it's possible that hamas could change?> everything is possible, but we have to wait and see that it happens. basically, when people ask me how come you believe that now negotiation -- direct negotiations with the palestinians could lead to something when you personally experienced it failing 10 years ago? i say, people do change. when i came back from camp david, both ehud olmert, future prime minister and tipi livni, future leader of -- >> charlie: and prime minister -- foreign minister -- >> they were extremely against it, they said it's almost a crime what barak was ready to do. it ended up with change. the same happens, and could happen on the other side. certain years ago the arabs competed, rejecting any proposal for peace in the last decade, they are competing whose peace plan will be adopted by the rest of the world, so people do change. to paraphrase on martin luther king day, the middle east conflict between us and the neighbors is a -- the arc of the conflict between us and the middle east neighbors is a long on

hamas is totally the other way around. they are -- you know, they're subjecting their own people to terrible things. and they're using the territory to just stockpile weapons. i wish they -- i wish they'd change, and i wish they'd accept the state of israel, but as long as they call for our destruction, there's not much we can do. >> larry: we'll be right back with the prime minister of israel after this. while i was building my friendships, my family, while i was building my life, my high cholesterol was contributing to plaque buildup in my arteries. that's why my doctor prescribed crestor. she said plaque buildup in arteries is a real reason to lower cholesterol. and that along with diet, crestor does more than lower bad cholesterol, it raises good. crestor is also proven to slow the buildup of plaque in arteries. crestor isn't for everyone, like people with liver disease, or women who are nursing, pregnant, or may become pregnant. simple blood tests will check for liver problems. you should tell your doctor about other

recognizing israel renouncing terrorism and agreeing to adhere to form or group past agreements and hamas has rejected all three of these conditions so i think until there is a regime change or a change of the nature of the hamas regime it's very unlikely that politically the situation in gaza will change. he suspected ken a prominent russian activist never has been identified and placed on a wanted list that's according to presidents to be committed. first of all i would like to say that the investigation into this case is in full swing and second such cases are immediately resolved only when the perpetrator is caught red handed. the killer has been identified. as been put on a wanted list and finally the investigation will continue to those who ordered this serious crime. one year ago today. was kidnapped and murdered in the northern caucasus she works for a department of memorial human rights center there kate in the chechen republic she was well known for her best to get to work or to cases of kidnappings torture and abuse his own party president medvedev announcement came as he met g

the ceasefire with hamas was actually broken in november two thousand and eight by the israelis then the rockets came in much more than they were before on times likes to rot then the israelis had the big gaza war and it was about one thousand three hundred most civilians palestinians dead and thirteen israelis to them actually were arab israelis now at an exchange rate of death of one to one hundred the real question is do you really think palestinians think they can do a deal with israel now i doubt it very much i don't think there's many people i meet in the middle east as a whole and i include israeli friends who really believe that he is going to happen i think we're entering a very dark period in a dark period not just for the palestinians but for the israelis for the iranians for the whole region and i think that it is a fact as we know that progress and other senior officials in the u.s. administration have said that what israel does directly does affect our actions in other muslim countries and it has a deleterious effect when i go to afghanistan why do i see philistine writ

hummus represents a threat to israel is plain stupid hamas is real position and it's on the record is that they would be willing to accept a two state solution based on israel's withdrawal of sixty seven lines with the use of them preferably in the open city in the capital of two states now they're on the record as saying that now why is that the hummus position because the hamas leadership is very pragmatic like arafat was it may not like it but it knows that's what the vast majority of palestinians would still accept so they have no choice but to go with that but maybe we'll talk about that later the two state solution is dead let's let's go back to the blockade for a second there israel says that it's now easing the blockade allowing certain supplies to reach gaza seemingly in response to its national international press or do you think that the timing of that is evidence that israel accepts that this blockade is unjustifiable to the international community well i have a yes or no no answer yes answer is zionism i hope to the point we can talk about different judaism and zionism zi

the hamas from gaza in practice stopped most of the divinity a jew then summary. our security is strong and therefore no tel or activity in practice on the bottom line we won can these measures continue indefinitely no no impossible we have to find a practical solution and to my opinion the. the palestinian authority of today is not able to sign. a real agreement they are not able because of the hamas and because of the pushing of the iranian we must to my opinion to go to some one sided solution to go we did one sided solution to go to the americans to agree with the american the borders of the one sided solution. to try to coordinate it with the palestinian authority but to move and to do it you let the team that captured and of i when what was the most difficult part of this operation well it was not difficult it was easy of preparation. it's a fact of life. i have done much more complicated or variations at the time that was the possibility to also capture the auschwitz doctor dr joseph mengele but you personally the child against doing this is this now a deci

-- gaza were prisoners of hamas. there are tensions, too. david cameron showed his respect for the turkish history. >> it has strong ambition, too. there is reluctance to except cyprus. what would this mean for the uk? that opens up the u.k. for a large group of new immigrants. isn't that at odds with your name to cut the level of emigration? >> as economies become more equal, you find the pressure flows between countries is not so great. that is what happened with spain and portugal. >> david cameron is determined to reach further to foreign companies. the prime minister is trying to make it his mission to bring john's home from abroad. >> a dutch court cleared the way for a 14-year-old girl to try to become the first -- youngest person to sail solo around the world. >> when she revealed her burning ambition she did not get the reaction she was hoping for. she wanted to sail the global solo. she said she wanted to live in the place under a child protective order. one year later she gets the news she was longing for.

this area within a few days. -- a hamas -- bahamas. to date admiral thad allen keeps the effort going. >> we could lose 10 days to two weeks. we will do everything we can at to shorten that. it is possible we can lose that much time. >> how disappointing will that be? >> it is hard. we have been at this for a long time. the people of the gulf coast have been waiting a long time. >> is an agonizing dilemma. the goal of intercepting the leaking well is closed. engineers are prepared to insert the finals deals section in the relief well, and essential step before breaking through. the evacuation could delay this by up to two weeks. yesterday, they installed a fail-safe devices inside the well to get ready for the storm. crucially, the cap installed a week ago will stay in place and it will state shot. at storms are nothing new for the gulf, but this time it matters more than most. this is one of the robots back from the seabed, stained with oil from the leak. here is the propeller that has been controlling it and the camera giving as thos

the blockade is the collective punishment of the whole people of gaza to try to wean them away from hamas now collective punishment by definition is a war crime it is absolutely illegal. the only benefit of the attempts to break the blockade is not really assisting the people of gaza but it is helping to make israel. be perceived in the world to people as more and more state and who is set to gain the most from that p.r. exercise has a very simple truth that most people don't know when israel was created and closed the palestine file after its picture on the battlefield in forty eight. the whole establishment world wanted that file to remain closed in other words zionism. and the western powers were not only of one mind the arab regimes behind closed doors were one mind they wanted the file to remain closed the palestinians were supposed to accept their lot as the sacrificial lamb on the altar of political expediency and then along came this argued for man yasser arafat who open the file and it stayed open so the file is opened but it's deeply embarrassing for the arab regimes because the

hamas commander has been killed and eleven people injured by an israeli air strike in the gaza strip. who died when a missile hit his caravan was the head of the military wing of hamas in gaza the offensive came after militants fired a rocket into the israeli city of ashkelon on the mediterranean coast that rocket exploded in a residential area but nobody was hurt. all right now we continue our exploration of the lesser known parts of russia in our special close ups or. today we take you to the town of a boat off skin central russia located just eighty kilometers from moscow what has become a real guardian of authentic russian culture it's existed since the early fourteenth century and is famous for its hillside churches we send your kid to the grotto about to explore the artistic side to the city. where else so close to moscow would you hear church bells ringing so often every fifteen minutes at a dozen churches similar tiny asli this beautiful chime can be heard in the provincial town of more of school located just eighty kilometers away from moscow and it's the closest cause of the
