right into israel into this situation. now figure this one out"- did you catch the complexity, even with judaism? you know, the religious zionists, the religious anti-zionists, the secular nationalists, the religious secular anti-zionist zionists. it's like i don't know, it's out of monty python. yeah, go ahead. >> so if they decided that they should be two separate states, then i guess the idea is they're both fighting over the same little bit of land- they all want jerusalem or something? >> well, it's very complex, but in a nutshell, to kind of give you the overview, you know, what we have here, and this came out of the- one of the things that i really love about this profession and at least the freedom i have at western to teach, is that i can create or resurrect classes- and i wanted to know more about judaism, so i put together a semester-length class on judaism and much of this comes out. well, of course, everyone is familiar with the holocaust, but the history of the jews is just enormous irony and suffering, and i

[applause] israel is not the settlement. it is the sovereign jewish state and we are thereby )-right-paren legitimacy according to the international law and rights of the jewish people and the reason why all of this is important is because if we are not thereby rights then we have no right to be there. we are losing the battle lost on the settlement blocs or whatever you want to call it because it is indivisible from the enemy perspective this isn't against the jewish settlement product. we want to economically boycott the jewish product. they said i want to boycott the economy. because again if we are not thereby rights then we have no right to be there. israel is our international rights are stronger than any other people. they were under the rule and then they occupie occupy them i9 and held them until 1967. they determined the rights. it's been superseded or aggregated. it was never allocated to anybody else and everybody that keeps talking about un resolutions. it's claimed to the determination. and a number of ways and

including israel. and with that i offer my sincere congratulations to our israeli friends on the 66th anniversary of their country's independence and wish them a very happy and prosperous independence day. and with that i yield back, mr. speaker. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. who seeks recognition? for what purpose does the gentleman from california seek recognition? >> i ask unanimous consent to address the house for one minute and to revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. >> thank you very much, mr. speaker. mr. speaker, i also rise today to recognize the great democratic jewish state of israel. one of our strongest partners for peace and stability for its 66 years of independence. since its founding, on may 14, 1948, israel has been a beacon of democracy and prosperity and america's stalwart ally. in the often tumultuous middle east. as a historic home of the jewish people, is

[laughter] >> that's where the rental car was. and i also, i read your blog of yesterday, the part about you're entitled to the labor but not the reward. and/or that the reward was the sitting on, which i presume is on your ass, a long time. so i'm sort of rubbing my ass thinking, god, that's an interesting reward. and i was wondering if you had any other thoughts? that's the only question i can really come up with which has nothing to do with the lion's gate, but i did think the profundity of the reward was the sitting was kind of an interesting comment, and i was wondering if you had anything else about that. >> well, the blog was about the lion's gate, that the lion's gate had been out for a week, and it was sort of the question of as a writer, how do you manage your own expectations in a situation like that? just like actors and directors when your movie come

but that's my israel story. doesn't actually qualify as a question but i did think it was kind of a unique recent to go to israel. >> okay. >> that's where the rental car was. and i also -- i read your blog of yesterday, the part about you're entitled to the labor but not the reward, and/or that the reward was the sitting on -- how should i -- on your ass for a long time. and i was thinking, god, that's an interesting reward. i was wondering if you had any other thoughts? that's the only question i can come up with. >> i understand. >> but i did think the profundity of the award was sitting was an interesting comment. >> the blog was about the lions gate, the lion's gate had been out for a week, and it was the question of, as a writer, how too you manage your own expectations in a situation like that? just like actors and directors, when your movie comes out. are you so psyched up and so over the years it being d being in the movie business i've head my heart broken so many times, the bottom line was for me -- t

. >> you return from a trip to israel. do you think is released, the most likely treaty or resolution, do you anticipate that they will not be happy, they might oppose and defeat it? >> i went to israel with the purpose of talking to experts. and we did. about 45, probably israelis involved of all stripes and persuasions and groups. my view is that the israelis have a position now that is not compatible with the kind of agreement that we wish to reach. they wish to have a success in things that almost everybody agrees is not negotiable and probably not necessary to negotiate. secondly, israelis are israelis and they are smart as hell. they are trying to figure out and do what way they can be most useful from their interest and affecting how the president approaches the road negotiations taking place on the kinds of limits i was arranging and talking about. and they have then quite forward leaning. get, let'swill not put it this way. the most extreme requirement in those areas. wellnk we will do pretty in meeting what are t

having said that, israel, arab-israel conflict display certainly in the middle east because it's part and parcel. >>> convention, 49% of muslims are anti-semitic, 1 out of 2. >> were you surprised? >> i was disappointed because religion should be fostering understanding and respect rather prejudice. >> south korea, 53% as anti-semitic views laos, only one %. difference? >> 55%, the data, not the whys. i don't know about south korea. it is just wow. there is an explanation. it's one explanation. it's probably this is my explanation. a lot of the anti-semitism was brought by missionaries. it depends upon what missionaries, how they taught the christian mission? was it antijewish, pro-christian? it may be that's where it came from. some was brought, you know, in other countries by american troops who brought their western anti-semitism when they came to either safe or conquer the country. there is reason to go back and it. >> the survey found that greece, one of the most anti-semitic countries in europe. what do you attribute that to? >> it's difficult to find the specifics. one of the r

and attack jewish targets outside of israel. james and brenda also looked at the jewish extremism in america. now, when compared to other countries in which the diaspora has decided anti-semitism has been comparatively low. nevertheless the anti-semitism have punctuated american history. anti-semitism was most pronounced in the early part of the 20th century when the jewish immigrants from eastern europe settled in some american cities. the mainstream organizations have defended jewish rights but there have been some jewish extremism that has been active as well. the best known is the jewish defense league that was created in 1968 in response to the conflict in new york city involving the public schools at a time many of the teachers were jewish and many of the people were african american. at that tim the time there was n between the two communities. however the rise of the extremism in the united states has been largely linked to events overseas. during the 1970s and 1980s, the jewish defense league targeted representatives of

and israel benjamin says he wants it to be official, he wants israel to be declare add jewish nation state. nick, some would say this is salt on a very fresh wound, so why now? what benjamin would say, is exactly what you say about those peace talks. they collapsed are or certainly on a pause, and during those, they demanded the palestinians recognize israel as a jewish state. that is something the palestinians refuse to do, also something that the arab league refused to do. and so that's why they are saying that he came out and said that some are trying to undermine israel's jewish app, and that's why he is propose had is called a basic clause. an equivalent of an amendment in the u.s. israeli law split into 2. that's the fund mental aspects of israeli law, the legal foundation, so that's why, dale, that he pushes this kind of fundamental very basic motion that israel declearing itself a jewish state. >> nick, i am curious, have we had any reaction from palestinians in the region? well, this is going to be very con ten, just to give you perspective, there are more palestinian citize

both iran and israel might think they have first strike advantages so helping israel to get submarine missiles to make sure their arsenal is survival. this would be a costly strategy requiring commitments and it isn't like they would have weapons for one day. this would have to remain in place for decades potentially. and even with that strategy, we could not deal with many of the threats posed by nuclear armed iran. we could deter iran from start agnew war and purposely tra transferring them to other terrorist groups. i don't think we could deter iran from becoming embolden and by definition we cannot defer accidental or -- i talk about the military option and the question is it worth or better than detaining if diplomacy fails. first i talk about the military option and many people think about the option and think that israel would do it. they don't have the capability to destroy iran's four nuclear facilities. there are four. two are above ground, israel could destroy that. two below ground and israel might be able to get one of them with the bombs but the others there is no way th

what israel is going to give is territory.go out and give a couple of good headlines around the world that israel is serious, put all your chips on the table, say where you're prepared to go and then ask the palestinians to make the concessions they have to make to give up this idea of a so-called right of return, where you're flooding israel with millions of deseasoncendan palestinian refugees? we had i think very serious discussions with the american administration over the last nine months. we appreciate very much the efforts of both secretary kerry and the president. they got a lot on their plate to sort of advance this process, but we need to make sure we have a palestinian partner. if they go to hamas, which is what president abbas did, they can also not be -- >> how can you negotiate with abbas when he doesn't speak for all the palestinians? he doesn't speak. now he makes a deal and potentially now does speak for all palestinians and is the leader. at the same time, he's cutting a deal with hamas, which you guys say is

because much of the support, it comes from israel, sometimes those outside of israel attack. and this could embolden jewish extremists in america. it will compare to other countries in which they have resided and anti-semitism has been comparatively low. and they have punctuated american history. anti-semitism was most pronounced in the early part of the 20th century when jewish immigrants from eastern europe settled en masse in some american cities and no mainstream jewish organizations have defended jewish rites. but there have been some jewish extremist organizations that have been active as well. the best known of these groups is the jewish defense league and this group was created in 1968 in response to a conflict in new york city involving the public schools at the time and many of the teachers were jewish and many of the people were african american. at the time there were tensions between the two communities. however the rise of jewish extremism has been largely linked to events and this includes individuals of the soviet union due to the failure to emigrate. they als

i met with the prime minister of israel. i met with the president of israel. i met with the king of jordan. i met with the leader of the west bank, abbas. i met with them and asked, can there be a separate peace? can there be peace with the west bank and peace with gaza in they all said, no, it has to be one peace. they lobbed missiles at us a. they are at war with us. they don't recognize our right to exist as a state. not only that they openly advocate for the destruction of israel. but realize in the objection you will hear today, you will hear an objection that despite arguments to the contrary weal how money to go to a iewngtsy government that will include hamas. i'm simply asking that if we're going to send good money after bad, frankly money we don't have -- we're $1 trillion in debt; we got bridges falling down in our own country and your government is end ising hundreds of millions of dollars to palestinian authority, now going to be unified with hamas, and without restrictions. restrictions that have a hole so big you can drive a whole hole h the res

is concerned,es israel is the place to do that. >> israel is the innovation country.e innovative company. a marriage between the two makes a lot of sense. of thing just the kind the israeli government loves to hear. taking encouragement from that will be the talent they're looking to tap into here with dell labs and a fair number of startups. -- will bell labes. organicallyo grow but also screen the potential of companies that we might acquire. i'm very proud to announce today the opening of bell labs in israel. have seven nobel prizes. i hope the next will come from israel. >> is looking at potentially buying israeli startups but he wants to act more like them as well. standard. to be the what i'm trying to achieve right regenerate is the innovative spirit of the country. everyone needs to innovate. we need to be able to do incremental innovation as well as disruptive innovation. that's always what's been suchcult and big companies as alcatel lucent. it is an innovative fabric. where -- we are anyone to in the vectoring. invent we are running that in israel right now

israel objected to that and said the pope is our guest. we will not tell him what to or what not to do. what they point out is that they feel like they are getting their own kind of sense of solidarity from the pope. the pope will go to mount hertzel tomorrow. >> that's something neither of his predecessors have done, the tomb of the forefather of israel. israeli officials are pleased about that visit because they feel like the pope going to that, given the hist between the church and hehtzel and the symbolic nature of that tomb is he is endorsing their right. what israeli officials feel is that the pope is trying to balance both sides. >> can i request you about this earn vitation that has come as something of a surprise as well, an invitation to mahmoud abbas and to the president of israel? >> abbas. has always distinguished between his ability to talk to netanyahu, abbas's aids talk about having more constructive dialogue. husband aides are saying they look forward to this meeting much more than they look to any meeting with prime minis

we see a picture of israel forces shooting. that picture, you will see those rifles indeed have the sleep barrel, which is used for rubber bullets, not for live ammunition. >> let me ask ivan about that. on that -- we're showing the viewers on that shot. do you see a sleeve on that rifle? >> right there. >> reporter: yeah. there's supposed to be some kind of tube attachment i'm told can be used for firing these rubber coated projectiles. that is the argument that the israeli military spokesman has put forward, yeah. >> you can see the sleeve very carefully. >> ivan, i take it there's a full-scale investigation, but there's also been some international outrage as well. what's been the reaction? >> reporter: the u.s. state department has called for a frompt a prompt and transparent investigation to look into the possible dispr prproportionate f force in this incident and the united nation says the initial report suggests the two boys did not pose any real threat to the israeli troops in the area and they were unarmed. furthermore

israel and the palestinian territories? >> it was received very positively by palestinians. what they see is they got unambiguous support for their cause and the cause of palestinian statehood. to palestinians i spoke don't believe this will have an immediate impact on the peace process, but they do believe the pope coming here and touching the wall of separation lent their cause moral authority, so they were very happy. it is safe to say there is some frustration within the israeli political establishment. we mentioned the anger that was reported yesterday by israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu, very sensitive and of anything that smells like foreign intervention in domestic politics. there was also anger within the ultra-orthodox minority, who were not happy the pope would be celebrating mass at the site of jesus' last supper. the israeli people overall think of the visit -- it has to be said, for a lot of people, the dominant feeling was indifference. >> cyril vanier, thank you. the pope has now left israel to brin

toe factions of israel want move quickly toward peace. netanyahu and his cabinet are very cautious and reluctant to make concessions. what about international law? palestinianses the a sense that they have more credibility. that means a lot. they have a seat in the u.n. general assembly. they want their credibility. the is a theme in much of arab world and islamic countries. we should recognize that. people's dignity should be respected. they also won their rights. arab was never a state of palestine before 1967. achievedtinians have peoplehood. everybody seems to agree there should be two states, israel and palestine. host: marie is in reno, nevada. caller: can you hear me? my question is why do we keep giving billions of dollars to israel when we could bring that money back to the u.s. infrastructure and start having loans and grants so we can start manufacturing? guest: there are a few reasons. we are very close to the capital. it is a very small percentage of foreign aid. israel has been a top recipient of u.s. foreign aid. host: it i

this wall that divides israel from the west bank.hen you see these images here, what thoughts come to mind? >> i think again it's good intentions. i don't think he meant to do anything wrong. he's played into palestinian propaganda. the writing on the wall, comparing it to warsaw ghetto. a terrible analogy. one portion of what is largely a fenced security barrier that prevented tourist attacks from coming to israel. that wall and that fence, security barrier has saved lives, thousands of lives in israel. it's sad that it has to exist but that existence has created many more lives today than would have been otherwise. >> we wish for something. >> absolutely. >> you've got to have hope. >> jamie weinstein, thank you very much. we'll see you next time. >> thank you. appreciate it. >>> the sound of the rolling thunder taking over washington, d.c. today. their trebt to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. that's next. i'm m-a-r-y and i have copd. the ultimate sacrifice. that's next. to those who have the ultimate sacrifice. that's

after the creation of israel. pope pye as called for the application of holy places and the following year called for justice. the vatican formally recognised the state in 1993. in term of interfaith relations pope francis carries also bag im because he's non-european. >> i think, first of all, in buenos aires he has a close relationship with the jewish community. after the attack against the jewish community, where so many innocent people perished, his solidarity was clear, his message was clear against anti-semitism. as i said, the relationship evolved. there was a time before - that's the turning point. the turn point, really, and i think father will agree, is john xxiii, reaffirmation and, yes, we have not only between israel and the vatican, if you look at the history between the catholic church at a given point in history, in respect difficulties and conflicts. but i think we have to prove as religious leaders that we stand for peaceful coexistence and also stress that a crime perpetrated in the name of lel

, not the jewish people. >> they can lie and say it's about israel or specific policy but says israel off the map. they say the state needs to be torn down, tear it down. >> that's what they said? >> yeah, it's funny that people continually call students for justice in palestine propalestine. they are not propalestine, they are antis-semitic. they do nothing but demonize the state and at ucla they had an ethic statement running for student government from going on trips. this is bigotry, harassment and a sense -- a sort of gorilla warfare on campus where they intimidate students into silence. >> they said what they were doing today had nothing to do with jewish identity, everything to do with israel's policies, and displacement of policies that render a normal life. impossible. >> it's funny because my sister lives in israel. this is personal. they put an equivalence between hamas with counterterrorism activities israel is forced to engage in because of the radical proterror stances that a number of, you know, government officials in the palestinian authority promote and what is going

with their spouses in israel all right fine but the very least there are any parts of israel that would introduce racially segregated schools right unfortunately they're doing that to last summer children and south tel aviv attended preschool classes segregated by race so knowing all of this is it really any wonder why we're seeing growing support for the israel boycott divestment sanctions movement or b.d.s. or just like south africa and international movement is galvanizing to divest and boycott israel for its apartheid system so given the emotional reaction to anyone simply criticizing the israeli government these unpopular truths are rarely discussed but i think it's about time we call a spade a spade call it segregation call it racism call it what you will but institutionalized discrimination and systematic oppression over any group based on race is the definition of apartheid. next week congress will be going marking up the nation's annual defense bill with all eyes on obama's military response in eastern europe there's another turbulent region of the world being largely neglected

that's where i think israel was right. arafat wanted to give him the waling wall, and then there's the entrance to a tunnel where if you got in, you could do it mayhem to the ruins of the temples. >> they pretty much agreed on everything else. >> the temple mount problem. i never saw anything like this. they agreed on how it would operate, but the palestinians wanted to say they had sovereignty overall of it. i tried to convince them to split the sovereignty or turn it into an international peace. it was as shimon peres, it is the first political problem in history where there was no problem on what happens, but no one can figure out how to describe it. that's about it. barack said i'll take it and negotiates to fill in the blanks. arafat said i'll take it in theory, but i have reservations. in the end. >> this is in 2000. they were ready to give up -- to give up israeli land, to give them -- arafat wanted to have all the christian churches. that's pretty much what they were disagreeing on. arafat knew that he would have t

in the end, israel and ehud barak accepted the deal. keep in mind, this was in 2000, israel was able to us was willing to give up 96% of the west bank. to give the palestinians a capital in east jerusalem. arafat wanted eight more blocks in the armenian quarter because there were a couple of churches there. he wanted to have all of the christian churches. that is all they were disagreeing on. they were disagreeing on. arafat knew he would have to recognize the state of israel. that he would have to give up terror, he would have to give up the unlimited right of return. some refugees would be taken into northern israel. but there could be no unlimited right of return. i agreed to raise $10 billion or more to relocate the palestinians out of the camps. arafat never said yes. when i was about to go, six weeks before i left office, he came to see me. i said -- i will never forget this because you read things about how america is in the tanks -- he and ehud barak did not get along that well. at first i said, stop. we have been doing this for
