under olmert, he negotiated a deal with president bush. even jimmy carter was not known for being a friend to israel and he said israel would keep forever. that was not good enough for president obama. he insisted in a complete cessation of any construction at all in order to reach out to the palestinians. so far it has not turned out that way. it is very unfortunate. >> where does this leave prime minister netanyahu? you say there will be some people who think he is already going to far in even talking about a freeze in the west bank. there are others within his own coalition who say we do need to have this. >> yes, netanyahu build a national unity government where he has left and right. it is a careful balancing act. it is not easy. so far he has already gotten away with removing two/three of the security checkpoints. now he will be doing this. there have been junior members of parliament who have been grumbling about it. the more serious ministers, those who would hold sway, they have been mum. that shows that netanyahu is doing his hom
