what you are seeing, the problem with the jordan is there is a town in jordan which is very radical and in iraq you remember zarqawi who was one of the leaders of al qaeda and iraq that the military killed. zarqa is a town that is a major recruiting capital for al qaeda. it may look sleepy and jordan looks very sleepy under the king but there's a lot going on. the fact that you have a suicide bomber going into the opposition offices, the tension between the protesters, radical islamists and those who are trying to hold off the power. >> host: the ap reports the italian foreign minister says italian opposition occupied -- recognize the libyan occupational transitional council. let's go to san juan. peter is independent. >> caller: my point is as long as they are playing hardball, that is what creates more hostility. it could go on and on forever. my other point, very concerned in the world, not just the u. s for the european union. your guests have not touched on that out all. last few weeks, gadhafi, 3,000 apiece. 1 50,000 army personnel, mostly chad pirates, army personnel from somalia

valley and along the jordan river and other demands that really negate the possibility of the creation of a palestinian state so to downplay the territorial question is wrong now let me point out something to dad he's right most israelis regard what they call judea and samaria and the whole rest of the world calls the occupied palestinian territories as part of their patrimonial homeland find that's true and you have to understand palestinians see all of israel also as part of their patrimonial homeland and in one nine hundred forty seven forty eight when israel was created palestinians were at least three quarters majority now when they recognize israel in its sixty seven borders they gave up seventy eight percent of what they regard as their country it is the mother of all compromisers and i think to ignore that and to to look at the occupied territories in isolation from the rest of mandatory palestine and say oh poor israel is being asked to give up this is very important territory that so dear to us ignores what palestinians are already agreeing to giving up the overwhelming major

i missed when i first heard it but when he said that a palestinian state should have borders with jordan and egypt. that was a direct rebuke of the. netanyahu will keep the jordan valley and gaza is separated from the west bank that is the word contiguous yeah i as a contiguous state i said i heard that the road saying you know where the borders will be that was that that was a kind of there were some very subtle slaps at the gate which of course netanyahu picked up and we'll hear him oh and the drudge screaming headline was you know obama comes down on the palestinians and then you know all kinds of other headlines of maybe he is a secret muslim germany your thoughts on how or actually your observations on how this is being received in israel i mean what's what's jay post what are they were writing about and how do you think or what have you heard that mr netanyahu is going to be saying tomorrow we're heading into a fascinating week because you've got the prime minister here and he's going to be addressing apac and the president's addressing apac and then the prime minister's address in
