but they have been very pro israel and very helpful to israel at important moments. and you underlying -- you are saying that or you're not saying that. >> i'm saying very clearly that this administration in regard to israel's security and traditionally supported. each and every american president throughout the generation. but this, under this administration we went even further into a clear deep, deep commitment to the security of israel and beyond. i see them ready, their administration ready to veto steps whic some go ainst or perceived by us being against the interest of israel. i still remember very vividly, weekend night, quiet dramatic one and hundreds of demonstrators entered into the embassy. it was, we went in many channels but one of them was the administration. >> charlie: you called the defense minter. >> and he called president obama. and the americans put its weight to the utmost extent in order to make sure that it will end up properly. so i would not under estimate the commitment not to israel, not to the target. i should remind that for those who t

>> do cents or israel cents impatience or, said dennis israel feel of these trends.you know, about jay st.? >> i do not know about that. >> are you aware of the lobbying group jay street here in the united states? are you aware of thosezati organizations? >> guest: i think i heard about that one but i am not sure i am fully familiar with their actions but i don't see any decline in the relations like that and i am happy about it. >> the second part the mood within israel what can you tell us about the division?e the breakdown, left, middle, rig ht, for the lack of the peace process. >> there is not a big difference today and to agree for a palestinian state but what would be the boundaries? fromo be demilitarizedd terrorism and the whole idea to solve the problem in a peaceful way.nk t so i think there is a consensus regarding how it should be conducted. some of them say we should start negotiations right away. for myself, if the palestinians ask my opinion opinion, they can have a palestinian state right now. so what? the restaurants are full, it is a palestinian st

i mean israel isn't dead israel may give its word to egypt egypt israel gave its word to turkey to handles five hundred you know prisoners over i don't see israel going back on its words egypt and turkey no way we're saying of course that between palestine and israel over the settlement issue and of course the palestinians saying look we we want the settlements construction to stop now if they don't stop there we're not going to have any talks whatsoever of course the international community want israel and palestine to talk directly to gether now we're hearing today the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu netanyahu he's actually called for speeding up a settlement construction in the west bank and around jerusalem that is provocative isn't it. yeah yeah but it's the way this government operates this government is a pro settlement government period it's not a government that is really that interested in in the go shooting with the palestinians in trying to reach an agreement because various this government is not anywhere near ready to pay the price that the palestinians and the inte

within israel regarding what israel can or should do to sort of move the process? a two-part question. perception because it's within israel and our political feelings, and then what is the tenor within the israeli people for what's going on? >> small question. >> i will give you a shorter answer. it's all right. first, about the ties between the u.s. and israel, i believe this relationships are strong and based on mutual values of freedom and justice, and we share the same war against radical islamic terrorism. and i think that the ties are a strong as they used to be, because the base is the same pace. regarding to what we can do or die show what was the second question? >> just follow up on your first win. do you sense, does israel since any sort of, i don't know what the word, impatience or less, you know, does israel feel in the united states some of these growing trends? do you know about j street, for several? >> i don't feel that. >> are you aware of j street, the organizations that was developed sort of in response to aipac, the traditional lobbying group?

there's lots of it so you do admit that it is possible that israel may attack iran. or the us yes unfortunately i do but i really hope that it never happens because this me lead to very dangerous consequences some see that the usa is just waiting for iraq to restore its oil production capacity to start supplying oil to the world market. after which the usa will clear israel to attack but i would say this is not quite correct if there ever is a strike on iran i think that iran will do everything to gain control of the situation in iraq and nobody knows how events in iraq are going to develop after about and right now iran has great authority and influence in the shia community you know just as it is that you've said that israel has gradually been losing a significant part of its influence its broke its connections with turkey and egypt we all heard what president sarkozy and obama said about prime minister need more over there experiencing a local economic crisis what role do you see israel playing in the future. i believe the best role for israel is to have the kind

analizan una opción más drástica. >>> israel lleva años advirtiéndolo, se confirma que irán trabajael presidente de irán dice que quiere destruir el estado de israel, deportar a los judíos de aquí y estamos claro que estamos ante amenazas existenciales. >>> en las escuelas de israel tienen lugar a ejercicios frecuentes para hacer frente a ataques de misiles. >>> la educadora, ronnit quiroz, dice que hay que preparar los alumnos para un ataque de misiles. >>> en el pasado, israel actuó por su cuenta, por el proyecto nuclear iraní, y por las instlaaciones sirias en el 2006, el piloto de ezras, comandó las 8 casas que atacaron la casa iraquí. >>> en esa época, nuestros aviones tienen capacidad limitada, ahora son capaces de mucho más, israel no se puede dar el lujo que países como irán, irak, tengan bombas atómicas que amenacen con nuestra seguridad . >>> si israel ataca a irán, puede que solamente se retrase el proyecto militar, y teherán va adelante con su proyecto atómico, israel vivirá amenazada por el régimen de los ayhatolas. >>> wall street sufrió hoy su peor día desde agosto, p

military officials and observers are increasingly concerned israel will act alone. >> is israel truly serious about planning? the answer is yes. it's conducted air exercise recently which very much improve their capability to know exactly what they can do in very long range strikes. >> one senior military source says if israel strikes, the u.s. will not stop its warplanes. defense minister ahud barack has made repeated trips to the pentagon in recent months, and pentagon sources note that prime minister benjamin netanyahu purged his military in recent months of generals who do not support an iran strike. israel has the capability, a few squadrons of f-15 and f-16 fighter jets and now has an air refueling capability, and with the u.s. pulling out of iraq at the end of the year israeli fighter jets have a clear route to iran over iraqi airspace if they want grit several squadrons could fly deep into iran. >> and iran's ability to stop an airstrike is limited. >> quite frankly those air defenses in general date back to the time of the shaw. >shah. >> could israel be bluffing? >> i don't

you know i think you're right in saying that it's israel which is driving itself into international isolation and that shows in many ways one and perhaps the most dangerous aspect is the escalation of tension around or even preparations for an attack on iran this is a very dangerous and other aspect of the isolation is that israel the government of israel in its fight for the status quo is pushing the palestinians to assert themselves as a state in various international organizations they've already succeeded in you know sco is also is up to isolation for israel itself public opinion against israel and then the other situation you probably remember the incident or a banner of psychos and a microphone it wasn't working and rather unflattering comments from both sides regarding israel everyone is oh so cozy who said netanyahu was a low budget bomb a said and i have to deal with him every day so obama was no more flattering to netanyahu and sarkozy was all this i think goes to show that israel's policy is not right in my opinion totally wrong it is an associate of color there's also th

made it clear that they're almost all foreign policy hawks right on china tough on iran and very pro israel how much is this a function of parties traditional foreign policy positions or is it simply attack on obama's track record live you can live their lives. to cross-talk the g.o.p. presidential race i'm joined by bill schneider in washington he's a distinguished senior fellow in resident scholar at the third way in sacramento we cross to mark williams he's founder and former chairman of the tea party express and radio host and in columbus we cross the cliff schecter he's an author pundit and president of the practice cross talk rules in effect gentlemen that means you can jump in anytime you want but first what you learn about some of the g.o.p. candidates well i don't know but you're right i can't even take seriously some. anyway when americans vote for their president foreign policy is rarely on top of the agenda but as the u.s. continues to frighten foreign wars in the arab world and threatens a military strike against iran and it's to be expected the presidential candidates are prep

i think your race and seeing that it is israel which is driving itself and international isolation and that shows in many respects one and perhaps the most dangerous aspect is this collision of attention around an even preparations for an attack in iraq this is very dangerous another aspect of the solution is that israel the government of israel in its fight for the status quo is pushing the palestinians to assert themselves as a state in various international organizations they've already succeeded at unesco this also adds up to isolation for israel says public opinion against israel then there was the other situation you probably remember the incident is about i circles here and that microphone they thought was not good they were rather unflattering comments from both states regarding israel and everybody in a puts the emphasis on circles in that nation the outcome was a liar but obama said and i have to deal with them every day with the sorbonne little more flattering about netanyahu than surkov he was all this i think goes to show that israel's policy is not writers in my opinion t

, that can take israel out of its isolation which will remove the -- israel from the agenda, israel must to renew the alliance of the moderates and to start negotiations with -- [inaudible] this is the outer most israeli interest, to block the hamas and the terrorist organizations politically. and this we will achieve immediately with negotiations in the short run. and i hope that we can reach a settlement so we can guard israel as the national jewish state and in such action you find us in kadima supportive and will allow you to do anything you can if you'll only want to implement those who seek peace will get it. if this is what you will want us to do, i can promise you they will also open negotiations with you. because i can tell you that it's not pleasant for me that they do not believe the prime minister of israel.

to make israel do what israel and it has if that doesn't happen if israel will not will not abide by international law and order while you're on the line with us i want to ask you something else as well another news learn that came out earlier on this week because you next go admitting palestine is a major coup for palestine as it goes through this battle to seek recognition as you're outlining the but will publish the really achieve anything practical with its membership. well i i think it will first of all it will give palestinians more of a say in this organization that is so important in protecting a cultural. big cultural history and cultural. institutions and developing this all over the world at the same time it will give palestinians membership into other u.n. organizations which are also important and through these individual memberships we hope that it will also lead to acceptance for example of palestine in the international criminal court allow palestine to to ratify the rome statute and also make it able to use the international criminal court as another venue by which t

israel's ongoing. and allow capacity to have nuclear weapons in the region once iran does achieve that weaponization will likely see saudi arabia activate a promise long made by pakistan to get a nuclear weapon capacity as quickly as possible and we could see turkey moving down a similar path and once that happens then we're really looking at kind of a fast rerun in the middle east some of the same dynamics we saw in europe during the early part of the cold war between the soviets and the united states and that's a scary proposition but ultimately i think it'll be much like it was in europe in between united states and the soviet union a stabilizing proposition once we go through that scary initial period so i tend to be more sanguine about this capability coming on line eventually i get i don't think there's much we can do to stop it israel may attack in the short term but i don't think it's going to have a lot of impact and i think we're looking at a new killer ice persian gulf which the world is goi

have been growing steadily for more than a decade with western countries like the united states and israel expressing suspicion that the program could be used to develop nuclear weapons with the recent report by the un atomic agency these concerns could be nearing a diplomatic turning point the report issued last week has unloaded what some believe to be a trove of intelligence showing that up until two thousand and three to iran was pursuing weapons related activities including research on nuclear warheads it is the first report of its kind that claims to offer explicit support for allegations that have so far remained uncorroborated. there is no reason to believe. i. say especially because it's affecting. confirmed. concerns that were already existing and were already recognized by. u.s. joined by france and britain are now considering a range of options in addition to the four rounds of sanctions already in place against iran options that israel has warned could include a military strike meanwhile iranian president mahmoud ahmadinejad's has been defined promising not to yield to the pre

and israel itself as a country is not the problem the real problem marge is the leaders of the jewish american community in the united states who influence and corrupt our congress to support israel when we have no interest there imply that these three lobby is dragging the united states into the wars. they're absolutely dragging us in iraq was a war that was proffered was called for mainly to let me ask you this the situation in the region in the wake of all these revolutions in the middle east and north africa yes you can pretty much describe it as turmoil. turmoil is no good for israel isn't there a contradiction to what you're saying well the the american political establishment is caught between two things they're extremely put pro israel and they're almost marxist in their belief that democracy in the spread of democracy is inevitable in all places and all peoples at all times and so they need to protect the israelis but they can't say what is a reality for example there is not going to be a democracy in tunisia or or or libya or egypt that in any way resembles democracy in the

israel is very capable of using its friends in the media and in the u.s. congress to heighten this sense of threat and i as i said before i i believe very firmly that this sense of threat is much overstated always good to get your reform view footage of all the former cia officer so it was a long way from washington thanks for being on oxy. and it's time when israelis threatening around with military action then come for the sin the strength of the jewish state's army is crucial but we have every year fewer and fewer israelis assigning up to the forces choosing instead to defend themselves rather than a country what a state report why the young generation is turning its back on a military service. for years it's been the cornerstone of the country's security but these days there's a real risk the israeli defense forces could be left defenseless construction is at an all time low about fifty percent of recently jewish remains. go and serve in the military what about qana spent most of the year and a half he was in the army trying to convince use a period to
