not just the palestinians. we should fight arabs and jews to preserve that. >> my opinion is that both sides, people are tired, fatigued and brainwashed and they will not reeble in a way that they would march? the streets. people are saying i care about my four corners and my garden, and it's out of my control and i don't see this rebellion happening. >> clearly i'm the optimist of 2002 of us. in fact, i believe that rather than creating two separate states, one israeli and one palestinian, that we should have a one-state solution where everyone shares in the same land and has equal rights. i know i'm in the minority with this idea. still, the situation in the west bank and in israel is so complicated now that you have a scrambled situation, where the israelis are living amongst palestinians, and palestinians are living amongst israelis, and the question really is how to separate the two people. onone of the israeli intellectuals that dealt with this binational situation which we are in is the former deputy may

we cut off all funding to the palestinian authority. we allow money to flow to the people, the palestinian people with the condition their government get better. we exempt the hospital from this conflict, because what good is there in punishing women and children for something they did not do? it would not have happened without senator corker and senator cardin. this committee, above all others in the united states senate, seems to work. it starts at the top. i want to thank you on behalf of the force family. this is a big day. we are not there yet. this bill came out with a lot of bipartisan support. that support will grow on the floor and one day, it will become law and my goal is to leverage better outcomes. this is not inconsistent with peace. this is a step towards peace. the palestinian leadership needs to understand that the american people are very generous. we want to help you, but you have to help us in the process. i cannot look the taylor force family in the eye and say giving money to the palestinian authority at this point

the palestinian who carried out the attack also died. under the palestinian authority martyr's fund policy, his family being given a stipend for carrying out the attack in israel. the senate committee voted 16-5 to pass the measure. it's sponsored by republican lindsey graham of south carolina and the committee chair, bob corker of tennessee. sen. graham: thank you very much. this is a red letter day in the united states senate. bipartisan support. let me tell you a little bit about the legislation that senator corker and cardin just and cardin just passed through the committee. it is one thing to introduce a bill, it is another thing to make it law. i have never seen a better combination than bob corker and ben cardin when it comes to foreign policy. the foreign relations committee is a model for the rest of us. if you are looking for something that is working in washington, the armed services committee was 27-0. the legislation regarding iran, north korea and russia was 97-2. it went through the foreign relations committee. this commit

payments to go to the palestinian people. secretary ofbe state and palestinian authorit ies making progress on problem. it is basically the only hospital of the palestinian women and children. our goal is not to punish will and children. thegoal is to change practice that i think corrupts the our goal is to change a practice that i think corrupts the palestinian youth, inconsistent with peace. this was a product of compromise and negotiation. i introduced the legislation a year and a half ago. senator corker started using the committee process. i could have done this through the appropriations process. i did not want to do it. i wanted to see if the senate could work and it did. the original bill came out better. we cut off all funding to the palestinian authority. we allow money to flow to the people, the palestinian people with the condition their government get better. we exempt the hospital from this conflict because what good is there in punishing women and children for something they did not do? it would not have happen

and your palestinian counterpart stressed time and time again that what's important for the palestinians is that these three nine hundred sixty seven borders remain and non-negotiable a starting point for any negotiations do you think the saudis are sharing that assessment and how hard do you think the palestinian issue is on the saudi agenda. of this unusual is a central issue for all arab and muslim countries this has been reiterated again and again the arab consensus and the unity it related to the other peace initiative and it contains references to the issue of borders but that does not preclude. and we all know the discussions between the both the israelis and the palestinians are related to how they will manage the border issue that the basis is the borders of the fourth of july one thousand and sixty seven but there is also flexibility on both sides to address this issue and compatible in a comparable manner and again the long history of negotiations and the international community's determinations in many instances shows the direction that both or she should take the reason i as

he's with the palestinian policy network. think tank without borders to educate and foster debate within the frame work of international law. to my extreme left is lara friedman, president of the foundation for middle east peace, well-known, i believe, to many of you, expert on congressional views, u.s. executive branch policy towards israel and palestinian and israeli thinking as well. she previously was with americans for peace now and served with distinction in the middle east as u.s. foreign service officer. to my immediate left is mr. christopher mcgrath. he's the acting director of washington office of united nations relief at work agency which has approximately 12,500 staff in over 300 installations across the gaza strip. education, health, mental health and microcredit. and emergency assistance to palestinian refugees in gaza and elsewhere. and to my extreme right is mr. natten -- natan sachs. he held fellowships and is writing a book on israeli grand strategy and domestic origin. i will engage our panelists in discus

it's a palestinian policy network, who's thinking is without borders to foster public debate on palestinian human rights of determination within the frame work of international law. to my extreme left is laura freedman, president of the organization for mid east peace, u.s. executive branch to israel and palestine. she previously was for americans with peace now and was an american force services offer. to my immediate left is mr. christopher mccgrath. he's part of an organization that has approximately 12,500 on staff. social health, relief and microcredit and emergency assistance to persons in the gaza strip and elsewhere. to my immediate right is a member of the brookings university. he is currently writing a book on israeli grand strategy and it's domestic origins. i will engage my panelists in discussion for a while and leave ample time for discussions from you, the audience and we will close promptly at 1:30 today. chris let me start with you, if you could paint a picture of the current humanitarian and perhaps economic situation on the ground in gaza and also paint a picture of what

the solution from the israeli perspective would be one palestinian, one palestinian authority and hamas controlling the gaza strip and an end to renegade at war with its neighbors. no one in israel or here, by the way, was loading we never assume that hamas actually might do this. they might say okay, we won't have a separate military and won't be renegades and we can assume that that is a constant but the question is what everyone else might do. hamas is not going to give up separate power no matter what the damage is to the gaza strip which is morally reprehensible but is a fact. the question arises what to do. sometimes you hear calls will matter the cost is better to go to war than going to war every couple years but by far the more level heads prevail and the gaza strip would be horrendous than the one in previous rounds for the israeli population in the last war and damage in gaza was far worse than israel but they were running for shelters in the middle of the night and regardless of how it is in gaza is not a situation that politically viable. then there is this desire even now

and the palestinian struggle. those will always be there. something about managing cause the. -- in reality there isn't that situation and get in line with international law and form policy that continues to call for education. some of those horrid my opinion to deal with the palestinian issue that still has international law supported that israel continues to circumvent. >> there is a lot going on but i will not cover everything. province is a technical term it is not a result of determination but a province that is renegade to be run by rebellious military that is very dramatic. but that would entail very dramatic sanctions still lacks a we're seeing those changes but more important undertone so to call home loss say terrorist organization we're missing the point. but also those other finding themselves and that is beside the point. so whether not israel hate somebody more that is beside the point. so israel is the stronger party with more responsibility. but it is a terrible mistake. but those decisions have no effect on things. so someth

done or one palestinian authority and the end to war with its neighbor. and it is worth noting that we all have a separate military to assume that is a constant but hamas will not give up its powers the matter the damage to the gaza strip. so then the question arises is what to do? sova to conquer the gaza strip the matter the cost with the war every couple years but usually by far level heads prevail that would be very different than previous rounds and of course, the damage was far worse there than israel but they were running to the shelters and regardless of how it is in gaza that is not viable. >> so the other alternative with the official palestinian government is a desire that there is a dip bait from the right wing that we should not exacerbate the situation but in the end so that his party by choice so there was a market loosening the blockade so i was talking but not pressuring too hard because then you get into a war that you don't want one that is the impressive organization but there was a market especially on exports in part that has gotten

human rights watch warns the practice of removing residency from palestinians may amount to that of a war crime now the rights group issued a report warning ultimately about the growing number of revocations in a recent decades for example israel has stripped over fourteen thousand palestinians all of their residency permits and a human rights watch says that a residency guarantees civil rights to palestinians so when the poem it's all revoked they are forced to leave. work crime in question is the forcible importation of the occupied of the protected population east jerusalem is part of the occupy territory here we're not talking about people forced to leave their home at that point to we're talking about policies that in fact we forced people to leave well despite concerns from rights groups israel gives a number of justifications for its actions of already say residents he writes are usually removed when jerusalem is no longer a people's main place of residence however in recent years palestinians have also been stripped of their rights for attacking israelis and are also also as

covered that pretty well well the idea that obviously that he's been called to do so by palestinians not only outside of israel but inside of israel so why should explain a bit more for people who don't understand fully what is b.d.s. actually calling for you know what would they like israel to do. basically recognize the rights of the palestinian people i think is what somebody who supports b.d.s. would tell you. there are calls from the israeli government to and the system of apartheid essentially which separates palestinians from participating in normal civic life the way their israeli counterparts to and absolutely the right of return to palestinians around the world who have been displaced as a result since israel was founded and and the lines were drawn and forty eight and then the subsequent way we've seen the borders expand and continue to push palestinians out. it's very simple i mean that the boycott divestment and sanctions movement calls on for a cultural boycott of israel divestment from israeli companies in universities and individuals things like that and saying. there

he's also attacked previous israeli/palestinian accords. making it different for him to engage on a peace process. as for a palestinian president mahmoud abbas, dealing with his own political in-fighting making it hard for him to make concessions and the entire palestinian leadership is waiting for trump to openly dmoit a two-state solution. that's the consensus on what should happen here in the state of israel next to a state of palestine. the fact it hasn't happened yet is very much beginning to worry the palestinians. before coming here, kushner made a round through the region visiting some gulf leaders. an important and smart move. pushing a regional peace initiative and get everyone onboard instead of just israelis and palestinians. smart. until there is something definitive and a next step, all a nebulous stage and that shelf life, the ability to do something there, may run out quickly. jake, one more point worth making. you said, this is kushner's third visit here. an indication trump is still limited. to some extent, if trump tells

palestinian territories remain devastated by the war with israel a few years ago.any gazans still have no access to medical care. a peacekeeping force is under pressure from israel to do more to secure the border region with lebanon and to stop has below from -- hezbollah from building its weapons arsenal. the u.n. also faces frequent criticism from israel. benjamin netanyahu has frequently said the u.n. is biased against the jewish state. on monday, he released a statement saying -- the u.n. secretary-general ended his tour of israel and the palestinian territories in gaza, which happens to be heavily dependent on u.n. aid. >> he made his way into one of several schools in gaza. before addressing the media, he met with students and families, as well as u.n. staff, to get a first-hand glimpse of living conditions in the region. about one million gazans with refugee status depend on humanitarian aid from the united nations. the jobless rate him on young adults is 60%. hundreds of thousands of children attend u.n. run schools. u.n. assistance has been nothing short o

palestinians have already begun complaining about lack of progress. we're joined by former u.s.assador to united nations, john bolton. so i spend time as a correspondent in middle east years ago, i came back thinking this is an intactable problem, it is never going to happen in my life is, there any better lucknow. >> no, peace between israel and the palestinians has to rest on some foundation in reality, that dud not exist now, given a variety of factors, overall turmoil in region, absence of a legitimate pa palistinean government. and i think just impossibility of circumstances to allow raise to accept on its -- allow israel on accept on his border more terrorist states with no recourse other than self-defense when they are attacked. gregg: when president was over there, he met twice with abbas, and with netanyahu, and according to reports. neither on inch. president of the specific about avoiding talking about a two-state solution. i don't see any grounds for a breakthrough. >> i don't think there are any, and two state solution this concept, has failed. fact is that even if

it's not that they don't meet the reviews to the palestinian president goes to the jordanian king.his time because of tensions between israel and the palestinian president and the refusal to resume security two,ination between the the palestinian president is not leaving ramallah and that is why the jordanian king has come to him. they are meeting under a time that says "jerusalem is winning and i think they are both -- "jerusalem is winning." and i think they are looking at these protests where people have refused to enter the mosque. they say that they are the guardians, and without them, the situation in the mosque would long ago have deteriorated here it i think what they are both looking at over their shoulders is this is a protest that came up from the streets. spring in therab palestinian territories or jordan and i don't think they want one either, so they want to discuss that. anchor: this is coming at a time when relations between israel and jordan, as you said, particularly tense. there are no meetings on the israeli side? irris: i think it must be. ramallah is 20 kilome

trying to reduce the palestinians to a political headline is bad for the palestinians it's bad too for us. because it's reducing the way we perceive ourselves and that's the first thing that we need to fight against when we talk about occupation. thank you very much recovering and. the man who killed my father and raised our own expelling me into a narrow country and if he killed me i would dressed up last and therefore i worry i would take my advantage but i would not to murder him if it were soon made clear that he had brothers or sisters who loved him and constantly longed to see him or if he had the wife to greet him children who couldn't burn his absence but if he turned out to be only his own cut off like a branch from a tree without a mother or father was neither a brother or nor sister wife without a child and without can all neighbors or friends come. legs companions then i would not a thing. within. myself that spraying him no attention in that cell was for a friend. i hope you enjoyed that request a favorite show from the latest season of going underground we'll be back with

law no demolitions ever have been taken against jewish people who carried out terror attacks our palestinian activist told us it's a form of collective punishment. before doing anything or even conducting the investigation they demolish the homes clearly here israel is using no law actually they are functioning outside the ranks of proper law demolishing people's houses and families houses is the worst form of collective punishment but more than that israel and israeli army practices this collective punishment is also discriminatory in the sense that when an israeli jewish person commits an attack on palestinians including for instance burdening a list and like has happened today on. man from a young boy from kabul for their family nothing is done to their family nor act of punishment like that like demolishing their house to explain you have two systems of laws for two people living in the same area one law for the israeli jewish people and another low for palestinians and that is called an international law a system of apartheid and racial discrimination. good intentions without proper kno

on the palestinian side, the palestinians are waiting for the trump administration to commit openly to two-state solution which is the international consensus on the future of the region. the state of israel and the state of palestine. there's been no clear guidance from the trump administration on what their vision is and what they're working toward. meanwhile, abbas faces his own internal fighting that makes it difficult for him to make concessions. what can we expect here? the fact kushner's here makes it clear that trump is interested in making progress. he has the time and moves, but is kushner willing to make a big enough statement and commit the trump administration to a vision to make progress here? dave? >> should be a fascinating day there. reporting live, thank you, sir. >>> the white supremacist who organized the charlottesville rally earlier this month has turned himself in to university of virginia police. chris cantwell facing arrest warrants on two counts of illegal use of teargas and one count of malicious bodily injury. he's being held, awaiting transport to charlotte
