lieberman who's really you know the stumbling block here the problem is isn't it and yeah has said he wants to go 1st in the rotation agreement he has one less seat than blue and white and blue and white has promised their voters that they will not sit in a government with the prime minister who is under indictment for serious things 3 or 4 serious cases of bribery of political favors and so forth and it could be that . by the end of the month that we will have another unprecedented moment which is a sitting prime minister who is under indictment the attorney general may decide to indict him in $12.00 or 3 cases right away and then he's he's really damaged goods to a lot of israelis because it's not as in previous with the with all mert prime minister olmert who was convicted and indicted convicted and sat in jail these are crimes of bribery and it's now it's reported to have committed while he's been prime minister not before he became prime minister so these are really serious allegations and they are really serious they witnesses and the blue and white just doesn't want to betray t

he's israel b 10 your party is seen as a king maker bots for benny gantz the problem isn't lieberman it's netanyahu. i would seriously school netanyahu needs to remember israel still has a democracy even if it doesn't appeal to him he should have come to terms with the fact that the outcome of the elections requires him to negotiate directly with no blocks or barriers these are a blunt and violent attempt to deprive the voters from their democratic choice most of the people choose a liberal unity government headed by blue and white most of the people voted to weaken the power of extremists and most of the people voted to go on a different path from that of netanyahu in recent years. well netanyahu insists he wants a coalition but not at the expense of israel security he accuses gantz of being willing to form a minority governments with terror supporters who receive instructions from israel's enemies this is a reference to israeli arab politicians who the prime minister claims are trying to destroy israel will bring in our guests in just a moment but 1st a false it has the latest from

joe lieberman who said there aren't a scientist he wouldn't sit with them so lots of obstacles then now benny guns has just a few hours to find a partner to form a coalition government what are his chances. well he still has a couple of hours left i mean his money goes until midnight here local time but it seems if you look at the mathematics of it highly unlikely at the moment but there might be a last minute to you but if he doesn't make a deal by midnight then the monday goes to the parliament the knesset and then any of the. case they could actually put forward. that they would like to form a coalition if they would have to $61.00. case to form such a coalition but they could also decide that they will have to solve the knesset and then pull early they have $21.00 days for that and then go already have for elections for such election which would be highly unprecedented in is for 3 elections within one year also it's already unprecedented the 2 candidates 1st spending the netanyahu and now been the guns wouldn't have been able to form such a coalition and that's why israel is in a po

well earlier the right wing politician of a door lieberman who's been seen as the kingmaker in this process said that he hadn't been able to convince either netanyahu or gantz to compromise enough to form a joint unity government the only kind of government that he said he would support with his crucial seats in the israeli parliament so what comes next well the only way really that a 3rd election could be avoided is if the threat of that election which is so unpopular with the electorate is enough in itself to try to pressure key players to compromise more or if when netanyahu and we do think it is when they're finally gets charged by the attorney general in the coming days in his 3 corruption cases whether that changes the calculus within his own party enough to try to splinter support away from him there's been no sign of that in the run up to those charges coming in the support has so far been rock solid behind him and so for now this grinding political crisis goes on with no sign of an end perhaps it will only end and maybe not even then if a 3rd round of elections happens in the early

election in less than a year let's go live now to western zeros harry force can tell us more so lieberman has been talked about as a king maker harry how crucial will his decision be today. well yes he's is already come out with a very consequential announcement he is the leader of the right wing secularist israel bit a new policy he used to be nessun you know who's ally in government defense minister but he was essentially a king breaker in may when he pulled his support from netanyahu just as he was trying to make a right wing coalition government then netanyahu responded by calling for this 2nd election in a row that elections were also inconclusive and now avigdor lieberman has dashed any slim hopes that benny gantz might have had to form a minority government with support from the outside of that government from the 10 palestinian israeli members of the israeli parliament who might have supported it that was always a slim chance now lieberman says that he will not back any such government and he won't back a right wing government led by netanyahu as long as it contains the parties of

if you remember, joe lieberman gave sort of a scathing speech about clinton's conduct, but ultimately the democrats lined up to protect him from removal. and that could be where things are going. it is really hard to tell at this point. one thing that i don't think is likely is an actual removal, barring a collapse in the president's support amongst public and primary voters, because then come as a senate republican, you are essentially voting for the end of your career, because somebody is going to run against you and probably beat you if you actually remove a president that they like. host: a lot as the week unfolds with public hearings resuming on wednesday morning. steven >> she spends washington journal, live everyday. coming up monday morning, we will review week two of the impeachment inquiry hearings with a wall street journal reporter and senior staff writer for the hill. later, discussion on the impeachment inquiry with george washington university law professor jonathan turley. be sure to watch washington journal, live at 7:00 eastern monday morning. join the discussion. ♪

except, was in joe lieberman nominated for vice president on the republican ticket? mccain wanted him there, ok that's my mistake. it was attempting kind of thing. and you there was some reason i dislike lieberman, but i couldn't remember what it was. let's use another issue out there. back in the 1860's, 1870's, 1880's, president didn't president's day and generally pick the vice president's, they left that to the party. and johnson and lincoln were essentially in the same party, that is to say they were both unionists, supporters of the union. and the party in 1864 was called the union party. but if you look at the votes coming in, the union party is overwhelmingly made of republicans, that's a simple fact. it is more a name change than a reality, and the democratic vote that your is not that far low what democrats in the north usually got. so in that sense, there hasn't been much like this ever since, but in some ways johnson and lincoln were of the same party, because both were determined that the union should be saved at all costs. and andrew johnson, slaveholde

his political rival in addition the main political king baker the former defense minister avigdor lieberman rejects both of them instead he insists on a radical overhaul of the entire political system israel has been trapped in the current political deadlock since the 1st general election in april now the country is likely to face an unprecedented 3rd election in a year we'll split scurrilous michel back how he sees the situation unfolding. we definitely are in unchartered waters so it's not clear what's going to be but there is now a period of waiting which is about $21.00 days where the president basically throws it to the knesset what's happening is it sounds easy ok if we don't have a government we're going for new elections no one in the country wants new elections the people are really fed up i mean all of our polling numbers are showing that people are really fed up with politicians of what the government so those in knesset have to know that there's a big risk to them that they may be voted out of the government because if they have to face new elections again it's possible that oth

man seen as kingmaker in coalition talks refused to back either of the main parties have indoor lieberman blame the parties that leaders one is the benjamin netanyahu and depended dance of the blue white party for failure to find a compromise. in the united kingdom prime minister boris johnson and labor opposition leader jeremy colvin have gone head to head on television in the run up to next month's election mr johnson's conservative party changed its twitter handle during the debate to fact check u.k. leading to accusations that it was trying to deceive foxes. watching d.w. news life from still to come what compelling graves teach us about climate change will have to antarctica to find out. first up today is world children's day and 30 years since world leaders made a commitment to protect the young from violence and neglect only one country has yet to ratify the un convention on the rights of the child and that's the united states since the convention was adopted deaths of children under the age of 5 afforded by 60 percent and the number of undernourished children has dropped by about

and thejerusalen post is reporting that a key political player, former defence minister avigdor liebermantanyahu will be acquitted of all the charges. and that mr netanyahu's political career should not be tied to these charges. let's hear from barbara plett usher again. we will have to see what happens but now if mr nick and how you has been indicted and he has been on the three cases of all the counts. they had been some thought he might get some reduced charges. —— mick benjamin netanyahu for so what are his political allies, the parties, but also members of his own, whether they will reassess and see whether he has an expiration date for and it might be more open to trying their political fortunes elsewhere. those who support him, his core supporters are very strongly behind him on this and they believe what he says about this being fox news and i witchhunt and so on. he does have fairly broad support as prime minister in the sense of his records. —— make a false news. he feels he has given them a day get a bit economy insecurity and in that sense, they wa nt to insecurity and in that

best way forward for a national coalition government is to bring back his old friend at the door lieberman who is even more to the right of prime minister netanyahu and he probably reckons a major escalation in gaza an assassination of this kind will probably bring him back in he already brought even a more extremists right wing politician if that had been it and assigned him minister of defense in israel so you can imagine you have this real march towards the right wing in israel and this sort of escalation house and then there is the strategic issue of there's a ticking bomb in gaza and damascus and everywhere so israel has to always preempt by carrying assassinations at it focusing on the political side because we really have seen political deadlock in asia just the inability to form any kind of government. looking at the past to do these kinds of escalations with does that tend to work does it do you think he will achieve assuming he does want to do that to sort of use it for political reasons you know some people call it the cycle of violence assassination list the escalation the stor

inconclusive elections both were hoping to win the backing of the former defense minister avigdor lieberman but his party refused herefore sits in west jerusalem with the latest. well the one newspaper referred to what's about to start as injury time in this entire process it's never happened before but for the next $21.00 days the israeli parliament the knesset will theoretically have the power to nominate one of its members it could even be benny gantz or benjamin netanyahu even though they fail so far to try to form a coalition government if they get the magic number of majority 61 seats in that knesset to recommend anybody who they view has the realistic possibility of forming a government but so far there seems little prospect of that happening everybody is sticking to their positions very rigidly netanyahu is refusing to go 2nd in any rotational deal with his rival benny gantz pentagon says that he won't sit under a prime minister who is under or facing indictment and he wants netanyahu to negotiate only from the basis of his own party not the white a bloc of other allied right we can
