it's a hamas guy and probably now while we are talking order some attacks on some installations of hamas. basically they are in control so they have responsibility. if you have a neighbor, whoever choose one of them who would be launching rockets daily into your cities, you would not ask who exactly did it. you expect whoever is in control there to make, to put an end to it immediately. charlie: everybody would awfully -- agrees with that but you got to stop the missiles being shot at you. >> everybody agrees in principle and everyone critical. not everyone. criticize israel when we take the proper action to put an end. >> charlie: that's the definition to what the proper action is too. there's a definition what the proper action and lots of people in israel had trouble with the invasion of gaza as you know. >> and they used double standards. they do not ask themselves honestly what would have happened if your family or your kids, if you have, were attacked this i with a. i was voted american candidate for president named barack obama and he gave interviews to american tv stations when a

, and the head of hamas.hat the two sides will manage to find a common denominator. this will, of course, help the palestinian cause to have unified palestinian position. >> do hamas and fatah see eye to eye on the application for statehood? >> well, it is our application for admission to the united nations and has nothing to do with hamas. the palestinian people legitimate leadership, the leadership of the plo and the palestinian national authority, headed by the prime minister, are the legitimate leadership of the palestinians. we are applying to admit palestine as a full member. so i do not really understand how to bring hamas in this picture. >> thank you very much for talking to us. the palestinian bid for statehood was the focus of "in depth." thank you for being with us. we leave you now with a look at the latest headlines. captioned by the national captioning institute --www.ncicap.org-- ♪

so, the last time they got through a similar crisis was hama. so, you have a protest, you have an uprising, you suppress it. the playbook does not say negotiate with the protesters, so there's no negotiation. ( gunshot ) >> one very high-ranking turkish official told me that what's going on inside the leadership is that bashar's mother herself is telling him that these are the same events, that they remind her of what happened in the late '70s and early '80s. and her advice to him is that he has to act like his father, he has to be strong, he has to be decisive, and he has to crush this element of rebellion against him. >> narrator: bashar sent in tanks, armored vehicles and snipers. >> this is how the assads, both father and son, deal with domestic threats. they retreat into their alawite fortress, and there's this convulsive reaction to put down any sort of domestic threats, and to put them down ruthlessly. >> narrator: many syrians had hoped bashar would be different than his father. during the first massacre of hama, bashar was studying medi

as rob's position is i did you talk to us or hamas, not both. i think mahmoud abbas decided to talk to hamas for the moment because from his point of view, othe talks that broke down overa year ago are not going anywhere. >> it is -- as if the economic crisis when a bad enough, many ski resorts in the alps had to cancel seasoning openings because of the lack of snow. some have experienced the driest november since the 1920's. stephanie delaware has this report. >> the ski runs are green instead of white. warm and sunny conditions in the mountains are beginning to worry the austrian ski industry. many regions are having to postpone their season openings. in parts of tyrol, snow canada operating around the clock. this ski resort has spent hundreds of thousands of euros to make artificial snow. >> we have about 1000 snow cannons. we cannot run them all at the same time get a 300 to 500 are operational but we tried to do our best. >> while there will be enough snow to open this weekend, in other parts of austria it is too warm to run the snow cannon

democracy democracy democracy and there's skepticism with tunisia isn't there was skepticism when hamas was elected seven years ago. well i think the us has a legitimate concerns as far as tunisia and the rest of the arab spring countries the fact of the matter is that in the past and i want to emphasize very much in the past the experiment with democracy in islam has not been very successful we see what happened in iran we see what happened with hamas in the gaza strip and with hizbollah in lebanon having said that it really does seem that we're witnessing something of a revolution in the in the arab world the fact that tunisian voters went to the polls had a choice of electing going to. party or party reflecting islamic values that's prepared to go into a coalition with secular liberal parties is a very very encouraging but we should bear in mind that in the past there have been coalitions like they're going to exist more or less in lebanon now in the past and the palestinian areas so there was a coalition between fatah and hamas the question is not just if they're going to be electio

week political blogger larry defender says the attacks on israel come from minority groups out of hamas is control. there's not that much happening there aren't that many missiles or rockets falling in israel at all relatively speaking there's not that much happening in gaza. but the main thing is the people who are firing these missiles from gaza are not calm os which is in control or relative or let's say the by default in control of gaza it's a relatively marginal group called islamic jihad jihad cannot fight israel unless the list thomas felt that an israeli invasion were imminent comma so far has never gone that far to say hamas itself will hold to a cease fire relative ceasefire but hamas so far has not stopped these smaller groups from prior prodding these rockets doesn't do that and would not and i don't see it doing that unless it was afraid of an imminent invasion. a human rights group says the number of revenge killings by revolutionary forces in libya is escalating sharply the watchdog group claims and d.c. fighters are terrorizing the displaced residents of the coastal town

and islam has not been very successful we've seen what happened to iran we see what happened with hamas in the gaza strip and with hizbollah in lebanon having said that it really does seem that we're witnessing something of a revolution in the in the arab world the fact that tunisian voters went to the polls had a choice of electing a new you know an islamic party or a party reflecting islamic values that's prepared to go into a coalition with secular liberal parties is a very very encouraging we should bear in mind that in the past there have been coalitions like there one exists more or less in lebanon now in the past and in the palestinian areas there was a coalition between fatah and hamas the question is not just if they're going to be elections and the elections are free and fair or not political players going forward are prepared to play the democratic a game and that's the test we have to wait for ok mate if i go to you in denver the west seems to like them ocracy in the islamic arab world but only if it suits their purposes so they can say this is a good democracy this is a bad

itself will hold to a cease fire relative ceasefire with hamas so far has not stopped these smaller groups from prior firing these rockets doesn't do that and would not and i don't see it doing that unless it was afraid of an imminent invasion. a human rights group says the number of revenge killings by revolutionary forces in libya is escalating sharply the watchdog claims and t.c. fighters are terrorizing displaced residents of the coastal town of tal where for supporting the gadhafi regime one of the authors of the report fred abrahams from human rights watch believes that nato countries must do more to strengthen democratic forces in libya. well in some places the violence is quite bad the town we looked out in was called and the militias from the neighboring town of misrata are terrorizing the people of to where they accuse them of having fought for qaddafi of having committed atrocities. in his name and you know the problem here is that the militias are not under the control of the political authorities the civilian authorities and that's the big challenge for libya going forw

let me remind you, in 2006, hamas won big majority to the hamas.meant a lot. >> no, that's not what i'm talking about. >> it shows how peaceful the palestinians are because i know the hamas -- [inaudible] i learned it. and the idea is the jew has no right at all and that the jihad and the idea of eliminating the state of israel is a religious religious -- [inaudible] how do you say that? [laughter] >> yes. a religious, a religious tenet. >> it's something you cannot argue about. you cannot go to a religious jew and say, okay, you can keep the shah bat, saturday, but only half of it. so if palestinians vote for hamas, i mean, it means a lot. it say something, don't you think? and they voted for hamas. >> i'm talking about the israeli government. like, why don't, why doesn't the israeli goth give palestinians the freedom to do anything? how come when i went to the west bank to visit my relatives, they weren't able to go to jerusalem with me because they're palestinians, and they can't? and the only reason i could go is because i'm an american citizen

however, it didn't eliminate terrorism because then hamas, for example, learned that in order to keep pushing their agenda, they can use rockets. so once you erect a barrier, they'll come up with a new mode of operation which lead to new challenges. >> well, in your book, you talk about four different models of counterterrorism. what are those four different models? >> most of what we're talking about is -- the gist of the argument is closed democracies tend to respond using the war model which is treating terrorism as a -- kind of a warfare. if we think about 9/11, this was the immediate response of the united states trying to, you know, put terrorism in this kind of framework that is something that we know how to deal with. and, of course, we tend to go to the military for advice. but the problem is that terrorism is not a military threat. it's a different animal. and that's why -- i'm introducing the criminal justice model. i'm introducing, you know, defensive models that are in my opinion are more suitable to treating terrorism rather than using military force in an attempt to ove

to the hamas. it means a lot. >> that's not what i'm talking about spent it shows a peaceful the palestinians are. because i know the hamas character. i learned it. and the idea is that jews have no rights at all, and that the jihad and the idea of eliminating the state of israel is a religious, how do you say? >> yes. >> is something you cannot argue about. you cannot go to a religious view and say okay, you can keep that but only half of it. so if palestinians vote for hamas, it means a lot. it says something. don't you think? >> no, i'm saying -- >> they voted for hamas. >> i'm talking about the israeli government. like, why doesn't the israeli government give palestinians their freedom to do anything? how come when i walked to the west bank to visit my brother since they weren't able to go to jerusalem with the because the palestinians. deliveries i can do it because i'm an american citizen. so like why? i just don't understand why. [inaudible] >> okay. know. stop, stop. this is a conversation.

how can progressive people, people who say they are for social justice, the supporters of hamas? they can because they have this vision of a redeemed future and who is standing in the way of that? it? it is america and the jewish. and how women isn't is that of say the 1930s? so, marcus aurelius is right about the illusion of poverty and of course it is a very classical view. landscape el, the roman general concord hostage and set fire to this great city of car seats, he left -- car since he left because he saw the future. anyway a lot of this book is about animals because i think you can learn from animals what life is about. atheism is a form of faith, a destructive faith in the hands of radical us. there is only faith. there is only faith. there is faith or just an all at the mystery of it. i just read a book by frances collins called the language of god. he is the head of the genome project and a scientist. he started as an atheist and now he is a person of faith, but in summarizing our scientific knowledge today, the fact is that we know that the world and the universe again

i didn't eliminate terrorism because then hamas for example will learn that in order to keep so once you direct the barrier, they will come up with more which would lead to the new challenges. >> in your book you talk about four different models of terrorism. >> we're talking about the gist of it is to close it down and use the more model which is treating terrorism as this was the immediate response of the united states trying to put your service and in this kind of framework that it's something we know how to deal with and of course if you go to the military for a fisa problem is the peril was some is not a threat and that is why what i'm introducing the criminal-justice model and introducing the model that in my opinion is more suitable to a reading terrorism rather than using military force. i think that terrorism is, again, it's not that i'm trying to -- i think we've to demystify terrorism and what the problem is that once we declare the war on terror, we are doing something quite a bizarre. we are declaring a war might in the country over entity so you cannot receive terror an

to buy an israeli air strike on a compound in northern gaza strike targeted and naval base used by hamas the israeli military said the attack came after a rocket was fired into southern israel earlier israeli commanders said the military is preparing to topple the hamas government. well today here on our t.v. and we have our website or two dot com for war next though we take a look at what's happening in business with me. thanks marina it's really has no other choice but to exit the euro zone and bring back its national currency even if this means the collapse of the euro some says prominent economist nouriel roubini also known as dr drew. six countries in greece i love to go to italy spain and cyprus that have different degrees of economic fiscal and financial difficulties than the longer more of them will be made to a structure that uses five of them up in that one and more of them may have to exhibit a euro zone different off of that exhibit eurozone than the banks or frankly implies a break up of the euro zone. and that's maybe calling up europe but here in russia the budget position

comes a day after an israeli commander was quoted as saying the military is prepared to topple the hamas regime. a norwegian man who confessed to killing seventy seven people has made his first public appearance in court he admitted carrying out the massacre but refused to plead guilty saying he was a military commander in the norwegian resistance movement in july on there's been a big a right wing extremist attack central oslo with a car bomb and went on a deadly shooting rampage at a youth camp on the island of utopia his previous hearings have been held behind closed doors with the main trial expected to start in april. in afghanistan the taliban has obtained leaked government documents and kabul the papers include security arrangements for president hamid karzai and several cabinet ministers the group published the twenty seven pages on its website claiming the details would allow it to launch precision attacks afghan officials originally denied the papers were real but now confirm they're authentic and that the security arrangements have since changed. isis excess will blast off fro

blogger larry derfner says the attacks on israel come from minority groups though that are out of hamas control. there's not that much happening there aren't that many missiles or rockets falling in israel at all relatively speaking there's not that much happening in gaza. but the main thing is that people who are firing these missiles from gaza are not calm us which is in control relative let's say the by default that in control of gaza it's a relatively marginal group called islamic jihad jihad cannot fight israel unless the list thomas felt that is really invasion were imminent comma so far has never gone that far to say comus itself will hold to a cease fire relative ceasefire but hamas so far has not stopped these smaller groups from prior priding these rockets doesn't do that and would not and i don't see it doing that unless it was afraid of an imminent invasion. there's always plenty more on our top stories at r.t. dot com also lined up for you right now. fighting for their rights former liquidators of the sure noble new purpose astro tried to force their way into the ukrainian
