the strongest force and brandon burke a poor showing there could have put their already shaky national coalition with the c.d.u. in doubt something s.p.d. leaders are now dismissing i don't think little fact in the grand coalition on the federal level we see what's possible in the next 2 years if we can increase the very important political topics as there is there we need. to fight climate change and that has to be done in a way that is socially agreeable stigmas says that if the conservatives give the green light for topics that are important to do social democrats. could continue for the next 2 years but the f.t. is strong showing means that they are likely to keep up the pressure and that could reveal more cracks. that such political correspondent melinda crane can tell us more about melinda despite this populist surge germany's 2 main parties are still in charge in the state so has the threat to i'm going to back his ruling coalition being overcome for now. well what's important to note is that these 2 mainstream parties that just debate airlie clung to their leading positions in the 2 stat

the rate of homelessness and of vixens rise a national coalition of housing density advocates who call themselves the yes in my backyard or human body movement is calling for a rapid increase in real estate development they claim to be progressive but anti displacement activists say it's just the developers and gentrifiers are getting a bad rap and needed to rebrand themselves for more we're joined by our keep it real estate correspondent a brand new redacted the number 2 there were. a way to enter a plea here what what are you doing with the aim of getting a sense of the community the community of my desk yes it's a it's a nice that's very modern i'm really getting kind of an urban ist vibe here i just have one suggestion like ok i was 12 more of them 12 more desks what the hell what i made that for so we can create a built environment of desks there a lot of desperate people out there late. we increase the number of desks in this community a market for desks pops up. eventually the cost per desk goes down and everybody gets to have a slick luxury desk to park their game changing outs

agreement and then you take it global the, and get other countries on board and able to build a 78 nation coalitionat isis, which is something that president trump has carried through but he couldn't build that coalition today, no way he could after the reckless foreign policy that has been pursued. >> brennan: you built your career, you won a pulitizer prize over talking around human rights law in particular and genocide and you are clear in your book that you morally had some problems with president -- >> and strategically. >> brennan: and strategically with president obama's decision not to strike syria in the wake of those devastating chemical weapons attacks. general mattis called that the shot not heard around the world. >> uh-huh. >> brennan: why didn't you resign? >> well, first of all, in the book, what i tried to do is bring readers into the situation room so they see just the complexity of decisions like that one. and when you are in the situation room and you are looking at the deaths of 1,400 people and you are seeing refugee flows out of syria that have the capacity as they would go o

other smaller parties out of 320 knesset it was his goal you know to be able to form a coalition of right wing national religious coalition clearly he failed at that but again there is also at the moment a sense a wait and see it because also of course blue and white cannot form easily a coalition there are only unofficial results at the moment we're still waiting for the preliminary results coming in and then we will probably see more. talks in the next hours talking as we wait for those final results and then you know who's rival bank balance has said that he will not be entering any coalition with netanyahu if his party still has not slater now to remain in power would look who drop netanyahu . well i think that is the question it's too early to also mean there have been some reports before the elections you know talking about you know what's going on within the likud because i mean the scenario is well there you know if that happens what will happen to the head of the likud and to prime minister netanyahu so that but a lot of members who ousted and they're all so far pledged loyalty to a prime mini

power of wills whereby benny gantz you know if his party will insist that he's willing for a national coalition without bibi netanyahu i am not sure that this will work because then. they could members you know they are not used to being. threatened like that they have a lot of loyalty to the leader also they have a procedure they cannot just remove the leader of the party without primaries so i don't think this is feasible however. within the guns party from the left wing there are some who say that they will never join the call vision with bibi but i think it will is more plausible that guns will break away from some of his partners who are not we do not want to sit with bibi enjoying bibi in a national unity so complicated far from done and dusted yet how to be a politician a well you'll know. a long former israeli m.p. thank you ever so much make the time to be live with us here on the channel today appreciate it. because some other news focus on what's happening in saudi arabia now the country set to invite u.n. experts to join an investigation into who attacked the country's major oil fac

that is with the opposition leader heading the blue-and-white party and has 56 in terms of the national coalitionab list, which has 13 states. so slight advantage, but neither has 61. the labourng vote is party, and he says he will not go with netanyahu. he insists on a national unity government which would be three different parties together which would be a standard, broad, secular coalition without the religious or arab parties. david: that something like this happen once before with heanyahu and barak, when was prime minister, didn't they share power? indyk: yes, they did. they was a rotation where were prime minister for two years, and the other was prime minister for two years. that worked well. however, the blue and white and the national government without netanyahu. he has the mandates to join if he removes netanyahu. pledgedut people have their loyalty into netanyahu. k: he has madey sure. during that, it is anybody's guess what could happen. netanyahu is wounded and he is the to do everything he can to hold onto power, and he will try to bribe wherever he can. i don't think he is going

case but that seems to be the path they're on right now to try and make an international coalition the united nations a coalition of the willing for some sort of. more resolution perhaps against iran obviously after body that the u.s. on the trip of ministration has made it very clear it has absolutely no time for but it has and it was scornful it'll be an interesting week next week indeed let's change tack a little here and talk about the new national security advisor correct me if i'm wrong here at i'm counting this is the 4th under trump's presidency what do we know about robert to brian and which direction he'll be taking policy towards he's been called bolton lights in the possible that's because he also advocates tough aggressive foreign policy around the world where the u.s. has a big military posture around the world shows its power especially against iran. but that's all there are several either republican or democrat think that's just a foreign policy establishment thing larry clinton was very much they say he's someone who has worked his way through the system he knows what's good for him

that tsunami started an incredible set of energy from the national coalition against censorship, and numerous other organizations that have come out to support this. the former n.e.a. executive director for barack obama was appalled that this even happened , and when the short notice to have an open house on august 1st, i sent an e-mail because the school district supposedly told people there was going to be a two hour window to see these murals because there was an outcry, and real briefly, it turns out that -- that's how important he feels and supporting our cause. i'm sorry, i don't want to take any more time. if you have anymore questions, i would be more than happy. >> thank you. are there any other members of the public who wish to speak? >> i would just like to mention that i spoke to the board twice and used my one minute of public comment both times most recently to remind them of their obligations under ceqa. i have given them written comments reminding them of their obligations under ceqa, and all the board discussions, i don't remember a single board member saying the wor

but instead is calling for a broad national unity coalition, national unity in their terms means anybody but palestinians. because they want to continue the settlelement expansion. they want to continue annexation and so on. even though avigdor lieberman is not veryry important because the fact nobody really wants to look at the anti-zionist party and their platform, they are instead pushing for -- to have this broad d coalition that will continue to build and expand settlements and continue to deny palestinians their freedom. bearcat tweeted yesterday -- join up with the fact about 5 million palestinians will be governed by the israeli knesset could not in today's election should tell you all you n need o know about israel and the international community's normalization of its racist apartheid." kat. was a tweet from ere diana buttu, explain how the system works. >> she is absolutely right. the system works and that only those people who are citizens of the state of israel are over the age of 18 are allowed to vote. even though there are nearly 6 million individuals who are entitled to

unconditional release of 350 prisoners from the other side we have called on the united nations to pressure the coalition to reciprocate this initiative falls within the swedish agreement and today we are going to execute an honor this agreement under the plans of the knowledge of the united nations the swedish agreement. has more from asuna. both these by releasing unconditionally the prisoners of war want to send the masses to the wall that they are willing to continue their obligations toward the peace agreement of sweden and also that these prisoners of war will be released today among them fold 3 prisoners of war will have survived the saudi attack on the detention center and also they are preparing to release 3 prisoners of war from the saudi national t.v. but there have to coordinate with the international red cross committee they have also the during the press and what they describe the saudi recruitment of children in there in the defense of the supplement they say they have rooted children with age of 13 and 16 years old so they are also be calling will be the walled during the press there are

yes he has said that he wants his israel bit a new party to sit in a broad liberal secular coalition national unity government he has made his entire campaign really about the division between secular and ultra orthodox religious parts of israeli society and so he says that he wants blue and white and likud and his own party to sit together but he's also the person who made it happen this is the 2nd election essentially by rupturing his relationship with benjamin netanyahu entirely. collapsing the coalition talks that were going on in may and so the question that looms over both his final decision and potentially more importantly that of blue and white is the future of benjamin netanyahu the the likud the liquid party has said that no other party should determine who should be its leader i asked moshe your lawn the head of the delegation that came here to blue and white whether they could have a sit in government with benjamin and you know would they rule that out definitively he didn't answer that question netanyahu and self has come out this evening and said there are now 2 obvious options

at the end of 2017 which in fact alleged then after that election 2 very difficult coalition discussions in the national government and has also been one of the reasons to some extent why this coalition government governing at the moment between the conservatives and the social democrats is as weak as it is america has said that she's no longer going to be standing for reelection she's handed of a party leadership 2 and a good combo so the christian democrats the conservatives are in a transition period within their own party and as i say they haven't yet decided which direction to take more to the right or more to the left the same is happening within the social democratic party the other party in government at the moment there's a big sense of. change but we don't know well yet in what direction this change is going to take place whether in the direction as it will of the i have to be or in completely the opposite direction we don't know yet at the moment absolutely and a final question to you and what everybody wants to know obviously is what these recent elections mean at the national level to what

have been disastrous for either party, and would have sparked a crisis in the national government, in angela merkel‘s coalitiong with various internal rows at the moment, and they are both trying to find out which direction they are going to go in, both have leadership issues. and if either had suffered a really poor result and been pushed out of government in either saxony oi’ out of government in either saxony or brandenburg, that undoubtedly would have sparked some sort of crisis in the national government, and that hasn't happened, so there is definitely a sigh of relief here in berlin, and the other big stories of course the big gains for the afd, but again not quite as, they have not done quite as well as they had hoped, because certainly in brandenburg, leaders there were hoping to win the most votes. that would have been something historic for the afd, that would have opened the floodgates possibly for future coalitions and regional governments and possibly in the future in the national government, and that is what they were hoping for and it didn't happen. so even though they afd has done well, the pa
