you asked about netanyahu. they've had a very problematic relationship and i think both of them want to find a way to show that they can get on, so i think this visit will be one in which you see many smiles and backslapping from the president and netanyahu even though i think they don't like each other much they both have good political reasons for trying to get on, and that can help them on the substantive policy issues as we go forward. tavis: when you suggest he will have an opportunity thursday evening, president obama to reintroduce himself to a group of young israelis, i notice the emphasis you put on the word "young," i think i know what you meant by that given the audience he'll be speaking to but how important, how vital, is that speech to that audience? >> well, look, the president is a rock star. he's an historic figure -- the first african-american american to be elected president and the second african-american to be elected president of the united states. part of the reason that they feel shunned

netanyahu has some rough edges. obama's rough edges he can pretty carefully conceal. >> john, why don't we talk about something serious? >> what? >> talk about something serious. >> what do you mean? psychology plays a big role in this. >> the question is, is obama going to be persuaded to go into syria, and can netanyahu convince him to move militarily against iran. that's the big stuff. the bon ame -- >> if they get the wrong drift in the level. >> the bon ame is to get to the big stuff. >> i think that pat is exactly right, how far obama is willing to go to put his money where his mouth is on helping israel. at this point that all looked well and good but i don't see him going far enough. >> eleanor, quickly. >> this is a gap between them on syria. i think netanyahu is just as wary of entering syria, but it did not prevent the president from going over netanyahu's head and talking to the israeli public, and there is a gap between what the people want and what the leaders want. >> here's what i want to know about

and netanyahu has to get beyond that.he president in dealing with all the various challenges has to get through this as well. they are both bigger politicians and bigger international players than this particular spat. >> the day after the election, in the "the new york times," it said this about what netanyahu had done in the campaign. what took place this time was a breaking of all the rules. when our prime minister intervened in the u.s. elections in the name of an american billionaire with a clear interest in the vote, the very same billionaire who used israel's prime minister to advance a nominee of his own for president, billionaire, talking about sheldon adelson. the question, within the politics of israel, it was on netanyahu to make good, make things better from where they were in the presidential campaign? >> sure. there are two sides of a coin here. one, president obama has a 10% approval rating in israel, and it is in his interest to not only, you know, cooperate with netanyahu and his government but as he wil

the president calling netanyahu bb. you did not hear netanyahu calling the president barak. pointing out the president has committed to talks on a new extension of their long-term military engagement. you heard netanyahu saying if you get to know the president the way i have gotten to know him, communicating to the israeli people polling very negatively on barack obama that there is more to obama than has been previously understood and clearly both sides were at fault in how much they got off on the wrong foot. we saw our own chuck todd getting in four questions, not just the one permitted. well, it is almost passover and it is almost a jewish joke that you ask -- the youngest asks four questions at passover time then he got that in then it was like the ball because netanyahu saying this is not very kosher but you're hogging questions, chuck. so there was a lot of levity here. even when talking about iran. i thought that netanyahu conceded something here that i've never heard him say before. he conceded the american time line that once iran makes the political decision to ha

this wasn't netanyahu until 1996. and the reality is this issue is a loser for every american president. if you're going to reach a peace agreement with the israelis, part of the job description of an american mediator is not only to apply honey but to apply vinegar as well. it's part of the job description but you've got to pick your fights and the reality with obama is that he went after netanyahu on the absolute wrong issue. he demanded a comprehensive freeze, it wasn't possible, then the president backs down. alienating both the israelis and the palestinians and the arabs,. there's one issue worth fighting with the israelis and that is over the terms of the agreement and if obama could ever get to the point where, in fact, there was a chance of reachin an agreement on core issues he's going to have tension with the israelis. i think in the end it might work. but we're a long way from that. >> rose: does the political changes in israel have an impact >> rose: not as much as many people think it does. >> rose: yeah,

so is the prime minister benjamin netanyahu. during the 2012 campaign, netanyahu all but endorsed obama's opponent-- what is your name? [cheers and applause] i know this. i know this. i know this. don't tell me. matz latke? bris schmaltzy? putz schmuckney? what, whatever. jim? >> prime minister netanyahu pretty much aligned himself with governor romney. >> prime minister benjamin netanyahu, who really threw his full support, it seemed at times behind mitt romney. >> you know they've known each other since the 1970s when they worked together in a consulting firm. >> you've been a personal friend of mine and a strong friend of the state of israel. >> stephen: that might make obama's trip a little awchward! [laughter] will obama's trip be a success? will he insult the palestinians by eating the israeli delicacy falafel or will he insult the israelis by eating the palestinan delicacy falafel? [laughter] here to discuss the chosen people is my chosen guest, please welcome israeli ambassador to the united states, michael oren. [cheers

that was pretty rude, too. >> netanyahu is a big boy.hat concerns him is what does that show about president obama's real instincts. is he going to war with iran in defense of a country -- that is what netanyahu has to worry about. if to publicly treat netanyahu that way it weakens his opposition in middle east because the allies see how we treat the main allies and discourages allies. >> sean: if you are netanyahu and i see obama giving f-16s, tanks, $1.5 billion to the former head of the muslim brotherhood, mohammed morsi who think the israelis are descendants of apes and pigs, i know what i would be thinking? >> we can control with the egyptian military. >> sean: the military leadership has been changed by morsi. his puppets are in charge? >> we can control it but no rationale for a pegs and morsi the fact is things he has said insults he has toward the israelis and jews and whole attitude, all of that. it goes back to when we threw mubarak under the buses. >> sean: and what happened to the arab spring it was an arab nightmare. i was

was netanyahu government said no.y sort of and then basically they said no. and the 2010 election which empowered certain domestic politics the president had to refreight this position. that was a fair statement. >> again, as i heard the president in israel two days ago, i didn't hear him to retreat. he said the settlements is not helpful. >> it's different than it's time for settlements to stop. >> what he said that's why i think you should get together and start talking. we can change the rhetoric. we can, among ourselves think of lot was different ways to complain about the settlements and i would join in most of it. sooner or later what your going to do about it? >> change u.s. law so c3s are not funneling to racist right-wing really extremists who are beating up people. that's in his power. the irs can do that. the treasury can do that. it hasn't stopped under any administration. it's getting worse. >> condition u.s. aid. there's a lot of things the u.s. can do while instead of getting them together, while talkin

and it cannot do know is that netanyahu -- netanyahu knows obama is less inclined towards intervention. this could be a good thing. from the israel side, my sense is -- hear about the layout howe saw the conversation and then lay out some other key points, syria, lebanon, and the palestinian issue -- on iran, i think it is clear that men -- that netanyahu people go in, when we hear that certain weaponry has been moved out of the goals, or diplomacy has been indecisive, how do they relate to that? the red line that denis mentioned and the iaea report -- they are down in a uranium. netanyahu will say, i have been vindicated and with red lines. i told you so, mr. president trip obama will say, maybe that means we have more time. mantinea welcome back and say, with these centrifuges, they can surge forward to the 230 kilograms of the need for 90% uranium within the 30-40 day-. -- day dash. nobody is looking for confrontation. i think they can asked pointed questions in a cordial atmosphere about that. each one will look at iaea report and read into it what they want to read into it. netany

netanyahu as to whether the u.s.issiles, for example, over to neb lon, to hezbollah, a group both say is a terrorist organization but when it comes to k4echemical weapons, very difficult to deal with. we'll have to see what happens with those discussions, that's certainly an important discussion being had. and then lastly, the two-state solution, the peace process between the israelis and palestinians. that is certainly on the agenda. there is not a lot of hope that there's going to be actual paperwork, an actual agreement or an actual start to the peace process. it has been failed for about three years, a lot of people say it's dying. but the president clearly wants to push the peace process to try to get something done. we'll have to find out to see if anything happens when it cops to that. zoraida, poppy? >> sara sidder in, thank you very much. zoraida i think it's so interesting, it was just a few months ago at the u.n. general assembly where we can never forget those images of prime minister netanyahu holding up

netanyahu? >> prime minister netanyahu and the president are first and foremost worried about iran. no question syria will get more of the conversation. about 135 miles, fred and michael, where i'm standing here in jerusalem to damascus. so the israelis have always been concerned about the potential use of chemical weapons in their neighborhood if you will. and a key source of information for the united states throughout this two-year plus now syria uprising. so there's no question that president obama while he's here will be trying to get the latest intelligence sharing. his staff as well as the president himself and plotting strategy on what to do. i can tell you from israeli perspective they believe assad has months, perhaps to survive in power and they're very worried in israel about what comes next because they have the experience of what happened recently in egypt. but it is iran the top focus especially for the israeli prime minister. president obama has said recently he wants to give more chance for diplomacy, he thinks there's several more months of an opening to try to hav

what does bibi netanyahu show? >> the president walks to talk over the head of netanyahu and directly to the people of israel. he believes he is misunderstood here, he's been led to believe that the people of israel don't trust him, don't like him, without the filter of the prime minister, a guy who es are let's not forget, probably sorted mitt romney in certain ways. what the prime minister wants is to solidify his relationship to the best possible way. he also wants to -- to make obama see that security problems, as he understands them, and to impress upon him the seriousness of israel's security situation. he figures he has him here to two. he's going to push some themes pretty hard. >> iran is programs the most important? i realize most important certainly from netanyahu's perspective and very, very important from obama's perspective. the official line, of course, is they're not far apart at all. they see eye to eye, shoulder to shoulder. the truth is they have very different timelines for this netanyahu though

one of them is netanyahu.wrote home, don't forget, strength, justice and staunch resolution are on our side and that is a great deal. mr. prime minister, like families across israel, you and your family served and sacrificed to defend your country and to pass it safe and strong to your children, just as it was passed on to you. standing here today, i can say with confidence that israel's security is guaranteed because it has a great deal on its side, including unwaivering support of the out of america. [ applause ] >> first question, israel channel 282nd. >> may i ask you about a political question and moral one. morally how is it possible that for the past two years tens of thousands of innocent civilians are massacred and no one in the world, united states, are doing anything to stop it immediately. on a practical level, you have said today and also in the past, that the use of chemical weapons would be crossing of red lines. it seemed like this line was crossed yesterday. what specifically do you intend to

he's panicked netanyahu realizes they are the next generation is like an international geographic film where the young lions push the old line aside they get the females and the future is theirs. but b.b. as he's called is nothing if not supremely confident over the past dozen years he's earned a doctorate in defeat and how it may be avoided he's a pro at welding together the broken parts so they can hold on for a little bit longer. driven by the fact that he has some kind of paranoid when you're paranoid. makes you minimize the volume of mistakes that you might do and i think that when he always thinks that there's a profit but someone is. about to pull a trick on him he's there were prepared as he used to sit around a table with partners who might eventually signal his downfall would. come netanyahu ran a confused campaign and a confused negotiation although he is very smart very experienced it didn't show the goals were constantly changing there was no planning so he needs to sit now and get his house in order. it wasn't that long ago that time magazine crowned him king bibi influen

what's already being seen in the open is netanyahu whose new partners are not the ones he wanted form a media personality ideal appeared and representative of these weighty second movement naftali bennett their everything he's not young contemporary and popular. he's panicked netanyahu realizes they are the next generation it's like an international geographic film where the young lions push the old line aside they get the females and the future is theirs. but bibi as he's called is nothing if not supremely confident over the past dozen years he's earned a doctorate in defeat and how it may be avoided he's a pro at welding together the broken parts so they can hold on for a little bit longer. driven by the fact that he has some kind of paranoid when you're paranoid it makes you minimize the volume of mistakes that you might do and i think that when he always thinks that there's a problem with something someone is. both to put a trick on him he's very well prepared as he used to sit around a table with partners who might eventually signal his don't. come netanyahu run a confused campai

benjamin netanyahu maybe is in a bit more of a difficult position.is there to rule in israel and it is quite obvious that things have not always gone according to his plan in terms of what he would like to get from the united states and president obama. so we're going to be watching this. we know a tree was planted at president shimon peres' home, which our president hoped would blossom and grow and be a long standing trip to a warm relationship between the two. this is something that will have a news conference at 2:05 p.m. these two gentlemen, these leaders will go into some closed bilateral talks, i believe dinner will be served. about that hour over there in israel. and we will have a news conference after which we will cover that live at 2:05 p.m. eastern time. >>> we do have some breaking news out of colorado that we're tracking for you. we're giving you right now a bird's eye view over that city. that's where a massive man hunt is underway for a man suspected of shooting and killing of the state department of corrections. all the houses close

netanyahu has not contradicted him. and i do not think he wanted to show any difference during this visit, for sure. he does not want any daylight to show between the president and prime minister. but nevertheless, i think he has said i think it twice publicly and that allows the negotiation to be tested. >> president obama stressed resolving it diplomatically and mr. netanyahu talk about israel have been the right to independently defend itself. you think that is not necessarily conflict between those two positions? necessarily. the president said israel has the right to defend itself. his response to that in private is, look, we need to do our best to exhaust the diplomatic option. it it does not work, it is better if the united states do it. we can do it more effectively in terms of preventing fallout from iran is reaction to it. it is better if the u.s. do it. the security establishment in israel and the israeli people would prefer it to be done with the united states rather than against the will of the united state

effective with netanyahu saying at the airports thank you for standing with israel. the business of this trip may have been accomplished meaning getting there was part of the issue. >> reporter: it certainly was. the president received a lot of criticism for waiting until his second term to come to israel. so much has changed since the president's first visit to the middle east when he went to cairo, addressed the arab world and talked about the need for democratic change. now in his second term he's coming to israel. it is surrounded by hostile nations and surrounded by chaos. a country that's walling itself off. to have the president here expressing support for the prime minister, for the state of israel right now is something israel feels is very important and a bit long time coming. >> in fact, one of the first stops the president made before leaving the airport, before leaving the tarmac was to inspect the iron dome missile defense system. both leaders have entered the room. let's listen in. >> mr. president, it's a great pleasure for me to host you here in jeru

president netanyahu and president obama had four frosty years.they had one very warm day yesterday. we'll see where it takes us. not only the body language here but the question of whether president obama not only has the will to come back to the bargaining table but does he have the capacity? he runs the west bank but hamas, a terrorist organization in the united states and much of the world, runs gaza. how does the president accept that position? would he accept palestine back at the table with hamas? that's a tough question. >> our thanks to john king in israel. we just got an update of the timing of this news conference. we expect it now to start ten minutes from now. we'll bring it to you the minute it happens, expecting president obama and the palestinian leader mahmoud abbas. >>> meantime just ahead, surprising statement on same-sex marriage from the american academy of pediatrics. stay with us. (train horn) vo: wherever our trains go, the economy comes to life. norfolk southern. one line, infinite possibilities. it's lots of things. all w

screened by netanyahu's government, composed largely of students? well, of course, first he was heckled. in hebrew. which makes him the first president in history to have to handle a hebrew heckler. then came the first standing ovation. >> i believe that you will shape our future, and given the ties between our countries -- i believe your future is bound to ours. [ heckling ] >> no, no. this is part of the lively debate that we talked about. this is good. i have to say, we actually arranged for that, because it made me feel at home. you know, i -- i wouldn't feel comfortable if i didn't have at least one heckler. >> the president then proceeded to deliver a speech that surely would have gotten him booed and heckled by many self-proclaimed friends of israel in the united states, if he had given that speech in the united states, where pretending to speak for the people of israel, and pretending to defend their interests is a common pastime of republican politicians who attacked this president's choice for secretary of defense as somehow being an enemy

but analysts on so sure netanyahu has any intention of toning down the rhetoric netanyahu is a man which is very much concerned about his position in history and he understands that now his third a prime ministership i'm afraid that one off the reasons that he would like to foster taking against iran is to place himself at the history of the israeli people and it's making the israeli public nervous about daniel been obvious company sells a system that provides ventilation in bomb shelters in times of chemical or biological attacks he says each time it on yahoo mentions he ran the number of queries goes up . some people prefer not to think of the threat but it's a bear and they know it so we have crimes just calling to find out about the system but who have difficulty deciding to buy one and then we have some people who are more alert these are the people who assume if there is some tension in the media will call and order the system you know a lot of worry is good for business and that's really how problem in israel we were so many money go. on that matter one is an israeli graphic desig

let's go to netanyahu.-first at the press conference, and here are some of the things he talked about. >> israel remains fully committed to peace and to the solution of two states for two peoples. we extend our hands in peace and in friendship to the palestinian people. i hope that your visit along with the visit of secretary of state kerry will help us turn a page in our relations with the palestinians. >> michael: tom president obama will be going to palestine to meet with palestinian president mahmoud abbas. here is more on at that same press conference. >> obama: i'm pleased to announce that we'll take steps to ensure there is no interruption in funding for iron dome. as as a result of decisions that i made last year israel will receive approximately $250 million this fiscal year and we will continue to work with congress on future funding of iron dome. >> michael: the president talking about iron dome there you know, lindsey graham center from south carolina talked yesterday about bad attack in syriac

bb1, referring to netanyahu. i do not know why people think we have had such a contentious relationship. he had a past relationship with president obama. most would deny it. mittsaid that he supported romney. he did not do much to support president obama and this election recycle. --did they do a lot to bid bridge the gaps. , we sawuld be persuaded the israeli public they even though it may started with mistrust towards obama, it ended this week with a lot of affection. --really did manage to build bridge some of these gaps. he arrived in israel on wednesday. he met with the prime minister and president perez. he traveled to the west bank and he met with the palestinian authority. on friday, meeting with the president of jordan before playing tourist yesterday and he asked to washington about iran's ambitions. here is more from the trip and the comments of the israeli prime has -- president. we discussed the long-range issues for both of our countries. among these is iran's relentless pursuit of nuclear weapons.

netanyahu ran a confused campaign and a confused negotiation although he is very smart very experienced it didn't show the goals were constantly changing there was no planning so he needs to sit now and get his house in order. it wasn't that long ago that time magazine crowned him king bibi influential magazine ran with the headline that he's come could israel but nine months later it's not so clear whether israel hasn't finally conquered netanyahu in the final as the great communicator might not be able to communicate so great after all if we are seen television. after the break a look at the lies of a community which turned its back on societies centuries ago you're watching r.t. . there was a time in america when buses were officially segregated and today if they tried to research the wall next or there would be outrage throughout the usa every t.v. channel newspaper so segregation in america was wrong but no america funding for via foreign aid seems to be a ok and jim dandy. arab language leaflets have been spread around west bank in palestinian areas asking residents to start using

actions must be called with a clear and credible military threat israel's benjamin netanyahu pulls no punches on iran labeling diplomacy a waste of time calling again for the taking up of arms against iran and its alleged nuclear ambitions. ten am in moscow i met très a good to have you with us here on our t.v. our top story after more than a decade of war hundreds of billions of dollars spent and vast numbers killed we may be about to see the start of a democratic election of a truly stable representative government in afghanistan though not quite the one that many would have expected or even would like to see take a listen. but message to the afghans is that we will want you which is a stroll safe stable democratic afghanistan living in peace and stability with the snake we want that country to be run by the afghans fully afghans with an afghan army and police fools to provide security in that stability but it may not take the form of a david cameron speaking there are many others wanted or even expected the taliban hinting that it may form a political party and contest the upcoming

one of them was yoni netanyahu.o his family, don't forget, strength, justice, and staunch resolution are on our side, and that is a great deal. mr. prime minister, like families across israel, you and your family has served and sacrificed to defend your country, and the passage, safe and strong to your children, just as it was passed on to you. standing here today, i can say with confidence that israel's security is guaranteed because it has a great deal on its side, including the unwaivvering suppt of the united states of america. >> first question. israel channel 2. >> mr. president, may i ask you about syria, a practical question and a moral one. for the last two years, tens of thousands of innocent civilians are being massacred. no one in the united states is doing anything to stop it immediately. on a practical level, you have said today and also in the past that the use of chemical weapons would be a crossing of a red line. it seems like this line was crossed yesterday. what specifically do you intend to do ab

that's why i think this phone call he brokered between netanyahu and the turkish leader is -- was so important because it put the united states back in the role of being a player in the middle east. >> and that wasn't just a perception. that was in fact the reality of obama in the first term. he did not want to put the credibility of his administration behind what he thought was a fool's erond -- errand, the middle east peace process. >> the big question going forward was, was this just a matter of perception? we're going to see here in the coming months whether he sends john kerry back with a really serious mission to do something between the israelis and palestinians and what does he follow up on with respect to turkey, syria, etc. the >> well, it looks like he's going to go back fairly early. and one thing interesting is secretary of state clinton kept her distance from the israeli-palestinian issue. i think you will see secretary kerry in the middle of this. clinton may have been thinking about the pobbletd of running for president someday, john kerry has been there, done that. a

israel and an attempt to thaw the rocky-strained relationship he has with binyamin netanyahu. is that relationship now thawed? will it work? what about iran? joining us as always on sunday mornings, former ambassador john bolton and fox contributor. good morning, ambassador. >> good morning. glad to be with you. >> good to see you, as always. how did he do? how about the relationship between the president and the prime minister? >> i think that the president's trip always had two purposes. one was the public political aspect of the trip to try to repair the very visibly frosty relationship that he had with israel and in his first term. and i think that he largely accomplished that, photo opportunities were great. the -- they had humor, a couple of hugs. really what else could you ask for? but underneath, the second purpose of the trip, i think continues to highlight the vast differences in strategic outlook that president obama and prime minister netanyahu have. on the iranian nuclear weapons program, number one. and on dealing with the palestinians. other issues involved. but

he might have perfected the role of israel's great communicator but as prime minister benjamin netanyahu enters his third term of office like his audience his powers of persuasion are shrinking. you need to watch the body language of how this coalition was forged it changed from aggressive to disappointed and after the disappointment the anger will come we'll see that in the open what's already being seen in the open is that netanyahu is new partners are not the ones he wanted form a media personality i-l. appeared and representative of these way to set a movement naftali bennett their everything he's not young contemporary and popular . he's panicked netanyahu realizes they are the next generation is like in a national geographic film where the young lions push the old line aside they get the females and the future is theirs. but bibi as he's called is nothing if not supremely confident over the past dozen years he's earned a doctorate in defeat and how it may be avoided he's a pro at welding together the broken parts so they can hold on for a little bit longer. driven by the fact that

netanyahu agrees with the u.s. intelligence timeline on that issue. it sounds like netanyahu got what he wanted to hear out of the president, which is making sure nothing was being taken off the table. take a listen. >> i think that there's a misunderstanding about time. if iran decides to go for a nuclear weapon, that is to actually manufacture the weapon, then it probably -- then it will take them about a year. we do have a common assessment on the schedules, on intelligence. we share that intelligence. we don't have any argument about it. >> reporter: and as for syria, the president would not yet confirm whether u.s. intelligence believes chemical weapons have been used, but he seemed to issue the assad regime a warning. >> we have to make sure that we know exactly what happened, what was the nature of the incident, what can we document, what can we prove. so i have instructed my teams to work closely with all other countries in the region and international organizations and institutions to find out precisely whether or not this red line was crosse

this is netanyahu's third term it may not be-- it may be his last term. there is a generation-- . >> rose: he's already the second longest serving prime minister in the history of the state. >> and there are younger politicians who were very successful in the last sections, knocking at the door. so he, i think will have to ask himself how do i want to exit the stage. as somebody who just lingers in power or somebody who has made a real difference. >> rose: what do you think his answer is? do you think he's decided on that. >> no. the question is whether he wants to be a politician or statesman. >> it is another way of putting that. and a lot, you know, a lot depends, it's not himself playing sol tear-- solitaire by him self, the palestinians, the americans, the europeans, it's not decided yet. >> rose: does the president think that he's prepared to take political risks within a constituency that has-- that he has known well and the jewish community in america. >> i think that he was dhaisen-- chastened by the experience in which netanyahu basically did an

seemed that peres and netanyahu gave the president a pretty warm welcome. peres called obama a great president and world leader. i think they spent like 15 or 20 minutes together and there he's signing the welcome guest book. did you read anything into what you heard, ambassador ginsburg so far today or see anything that you think is notable at this point? >> well, two things. first of all, chris, the fact is that the president made it very clear from the time that he landed at the airport that he was going to talk directly to the israeli people to try to reassure them that this alliance between the united states and israel is unshakable. and there's a lot of suspicion among israelis over the president's intentions given the turmoil in the region. number two, the president made it very clear that he also believes that israel's security is dependent on reaching the peace with the palestinians. that's why he used the euphemism that he looks for a peace in the holy land. and so there's no doubt that with respect to the messages that he sent on the ground, chri

has beenink netanyahu weakened? >> the tale emerged pretty much when the white smoke was billowing out of the vatican chimney. it coincided with the new pope. it took much longer than finding a new pope. netanyahu is weakened. he will be running a four-party coalition. he is somewhere near the center of that coalition. yeshs made a deal with atid, a central party. there is another party further to the left and another party further to the right. it is not the coalition he really wanted. he has some quite strong rivals within his cabinet who will be looking to make life difficult for him, i think. >> the ultra-orthodox parties have been left out. they have been a key ally of netting yahoo's parties -- netanyahu's party. >> they were unthreatening allies for neptune yahoo. these other parties refused to sit in government with him unless there were dramatic reforms. those other parties have prevailed. there is a domestic agenda now for this government, which may seem new legislation making -- new legislation for requir
