as and there is meant to have a palestinian authority in the occupied palestinian territories to control the palestinian masses and withdraw from the local life of palestinians and try actually to control the land but allowing the palestinian authority to control the population so i think from the very. beginning it was a clear for almost everybody that the accord will not be to any it will not lead to any final settlement just and fear final settlements for there is likely palestinian conflict. actually into too many agreements. on the short and the short term agreements that have led in fact actually at the end of the day to nowhere so this is where we are today after twenty five years of continuous negotiations between the israelis and palestinians we don't have a policy in the state today we still don't have a palestinian state today we still don't have peace between the israelis and palestinians and the conflict is still going on which was actually that we need some other options in order to have to use all of this conflict other than the oslo process and other the negotiations whic

the palestinian authority gives salaries to palestinians who attack innocent people like taylor. if the attacker dies, then the attacker's family is compensated under their law. i know it's hard for us to adjust to this, but it is palestinian law to reward palestinian prisoners in israeli jails with a monthly paycheck. the palestinian leadership also pays the families of palestinian suicide bombers. it goes without saying that these policies clearly incentivize terrorism. in fact, this perverse pay to sleigh system uses a sliding scale. the longer the jail sentence -- in other words, the greater the mayhem created there, the greater the reward. the highest payment goes to those serving life sentences to those who prove obviously most brutal. this system is a disgrace. it is also the result of an abiding climate of hatred that palestinian leaders continue to foster toward jews, towards israelis. as one witness told our committee, incitement is the term we usually use, but hatred is what we mean, teaching generations of palestinians to hate jews by deem onizing and dehumanizing the

water they have been for a long time decision just confirms that know which direction do the palestinian authority go in next to find recourse for an independent palestinian state. palestinian authority of course. because it has been. its programs on the so-called two state solution and. as you said. that the israelis have killed a long time ago. and practically. joining. to the in your opinion is it. in your opinion is a two state solution in any way possible now. i don't know but what is important for us is one thing. and was never supposed to be an alternative to palestinian freedom. and freedom but . we always said we want our freedom more than two state solution or one state solution if israel is killing the it will be its responsibility of killing it but that does not leave us and we will have. one democratic state solution that means that it cannot be. that. could be the prime minister of that state either they want equality equality for everybody or do they have to end occupation i think the whole peace process the whole two state solution went from the very first time because it started t

they have informed the palestinian authority of its willingness to increase the energy supply to gaza by 6 megawatts for this plan. it's implemented and will help address critical sewage and broader environmental proble problems. mr. president, during the reporting period, there have been no developments related to member states distinguishing in their dealings between the state of israel and 1967. the reporting period has not seen significant positive moods toward advancing peace and the parties remain divided further than ever. they announced his decision to recognize tourism of the state of israel all saying they remain for the parties to be determined. he also made clear his commitment to advance peace and called for the status quo of the holy states to be respected. since then they have canceled meetings with vice president pence calling for the establishment of a new mechanism to achieve peace. palestinian president is also looking for recognition of palestine and to seek full membership in the absence of a meaningful peace process. united nations maintains the view that jerusal

but what is what is hamas saying and how does it chime in with what we're hearing from the palestinian authority and fattah. well you have the same frustration amongst palestinians as you have amongst palestinians in the occupied west bank and gaza now it's other ministers by the palestinian authority hamas was in charge it's been handing over control to the palestinian authority in a reconciliation deal brokered by the egyptians with no less still considerable influence he still has man and. its senior political leader. that if it does announce that you're useless the capital of israel he will have crossed all right lines. the trauma decision is a serious aggression on our policy people on the arab and muslim nations and on the free people of the world and we think and believe that this is a sort of a gamble and an adventure that has no ceiling when it comes to the actions of the palestinians arabs and muslims and on the free peoples of the world and we warned that the bad results of such a decision and before the decision is to be taken we warn against the bad results and we call for the compl

palestinian independence that anyway than any other country in the world so the problem is that the palestinian authority is working against the will of its own people and i can tell you a somebody that's in the west bank every day talking to the palestinian people the palestinian authority are have become a cynical terrorist supporting entity that is not working towards peace and that have no interest in at this point coming to the negotiating table negotiating with israel and this is against the will of its own people and if you were here in the areas of drucilla and gone through the west bank and have real conversations with palestinian professionals you'd realize that they're all saying palestinian authority and my what about us are working against the interest of their own people and that's why you could never get elected again if you went to elections opposite hamas well mr dyker as you know they're a number of countries in the region dividend bishan of playing a role in the middle east peace process and one of them is turkey which already an ounce it's held to move its palestinian embassy is jerus

the only barrier to peace here today is the fundamental unwillingness of the palestinian authority to compromise with israel. to come to an agreement. israel is forward-looking. it's reached peace agreements with egypt and the jordan. it's called hundreds of times for peace with the palestinian leadership. unfortunately they've said no. unfortunately they're paying hundreds of millions of dollars to anyone who will murder an israeli. unfortunately, they're create agriculture of hatred for future generations by naming schools and streets after mass murderers. i hope that changes, because everyone deserves a future of hope and peace, israelis and palestinians alike. >> david, thanks for the conversation. i was hoping to get an answer on settlements, but we'll do that again. a spokesman for benjamin netanyahu. >>> bring in an adviser to president mahmoud abbas. ultimately, what does this move do to, just be frank herestalle for a long time. the people who say this stalls the peace process more is that true? >> absolutely. it's very important rewarding i doing so. so what he's now doing i

mahmoud abbas the palestinian authority president. is in no doubt a i mean a lot of pressure right now after this decision hamas as leader we heard earlier today blame the fault for the situation that the palestinians find themselves in today do you have a sense you get a sense that we're going to see some concrete action from the palestinian authority what are they going to do politically about this decision. well certainly president mahmoud abbas is now under a lot of pressure and war eyes are on him but you do get a sense really that all the palestinian factions now will have to show a united front despite their political disagreements is bite their bickering when it comes to jerusalem they all agree that it has to be but it has to be part of a future palestinian state and that was very much reflected i would say in the protests today usually you would see all the flags of the various factions today you see you so by and large only palestinian flags many wanted to show that there was a message of unity not only among the faction but

people don't want the palestinian authority to welcome they don't want him to come to the occupied west bank in the first place you see that written all over great feet is all over and posters all over the area where people say you are you are not welcome this is a very difficult situation for the palestinian authority certainly to find a way forward is also going to be very complicated hold a sense this announcement came from president trump there have been protests what are you hearing about more protests that may be happening and and we have pictures that we've been showing of protests and bethlehem right now do we have reason to expect that that will continue. well we have reason to expect that will continue it's very difficult to go to this point whether they will pick up steam whether they become broader for we have to say that the protests whether for example peaceful demonstrations here in the center of ramallah or these clashes and confrontations that happen a description police have been quite limited in scope and when you ask that question is because there is. h

analyst marwan bashar and said picking up on the point that i was making them are one the palestinian authority refusing to meet vice president mike pence when he comes to the region we've also had the palestinians say that. that decision on jerusalem quit completely disqualifies the u.s. from playing any future role but is it so straightforward so simple to exclude the u.s. from any future process no it's going to be quite challenging especially because the by the sea of authority has been quite dependent on the united states for the last quarter of a century but you know like every. every young. creature twenty five years late that probably it is time for the palestinian authority to get on its own and to for a chart a way that is independent of the united states but the question of pence has a very special quotations i mean he is already of course the vice president of the united states but for a lot of us who've been observing what's been going on in washington this past year pence doesn't present a set an evangelical orientation influence on the trump administration and i think what we've

which the palestinian authority would have a very difficult time even existing without the support of america so i think it's a little premature to for him to make those kind of statements for them to be burning the american flag. you know clearly this is just stating the obvious that jerusalem is and will be the future it will be it is the capital of israel and if there is a palestinian state a palestinian entity jerusalem may be. part of jerusalem may be the capital of that state as well. you know it was actually russia back in april made the first declaration of any country rule to recognize that western would be the capital of israel and there were these protests there wasn't this mass rage so it's quite interesting you know you bring up a point about this is something that is just a statement of fact the u.s. administration they are trying to portray this as them having nothing especially controversial and recognizing jerusalem so why now while the protests across the world because of america's declaration. well the protests i think it's just popular in this region to

telling my brothers in the palestinian authority that the situation or hand should be nearly lead with out any appreciation or ambiguity is not what we. when you go out of them or slow dark tunnel like. we have lived. and suffered pain and suffering say through the last little tunnel that the enemy has be given the right to be shot to just plain build settlements. we need to do in this when it's full blown. arrangements but all it is to do is to go out. of the old school tunnel so no no no no settlement the peace process not god has not been existed talk about all of this decision i make a slow has killed the settlement process and the from header for the palestinians and their partners leader no thought o.j. has. got the national guard at the historic responsibility to declare that it has nothing to do with this fair agreement. to lead to rearrange the palestinian scene we need to go quickly. to reach the palestinian reconsideration and the palestinian national unity and we have to overcome. that period of putting an end to the division would have to go quickly and very quickly to rea

i'm not questioning that the palestinian authority is headquartered in romana.ime minister of the palestinian authority. i don't question that that is where they are headquartered at. there's a certain realities here. the prime minister said to my face that he would not recognise israel as a jewish state. you also have to consider the fact that if the palestinian authority leadership was in good faith negotiating a deal, let's say people are sitting down in 2018, there is an element in the palestinian authority, hamas, who will not rest until israel is wiped off the map. thank you forjoining us. theresa may found a new form a words today which may soon be adopted by school children and the work—shy world over. when asked about monday's attempted brexit deal on northern ireland she merely claimed ‘very good progress has been made'. it sounded a bit hollow in the house of commons and was met with laughter. tonight, however, there were some positive sounds coming from the irish taoiseach, leo varadkar. i agreed to examine any text that they put forward in a positiv

now to get out to go along because they know that the palestinian authority is if not bankrupt it's close to that and the real you have the reading of that deal you were talking about the deal that supposedly and the saudis and the deficit been talking about jared krishna being in the middle of all of this is your sense of it that this is just the sort of prelim today and the deal would be placed in front of the palestinians and told this is the only show in town sign up to it oh it's going ahead and you know. exactly what i expected and everyone was basically in anticipation except it just took too long and now we're talking about the beginning of next year. but certainly the decision to recognize use of them is almost sounds like putting the cart in front of the horse it sounds like this is not exactly what you do if you want to have this ultimate deal where you want the palestinians and the arabs to be supported i'm going to go out on the limb and put out a scenario whereby perhaps just perhaps that now that trump has given this huge gift to the israeli ri

is so great on the palestinian street because of the corruption and the mishandling of the palestinian authority that people in the palestinian areas in the west bank and even in gaza the public wants to be connected to israel the public wants to work with israel mr abbas politically it is in a terrible position so his best option is to go the extremist route but this political suicide is not going to tell if you look what it was it's not going to create a palestinian state the side for a second it was interesting we carried some of this live news conference at the end of the. oh i see meeting and there was a lot made of these graphics the of how this whole place is changed in this one hundred forty seven through the sixty's up to now and how israeli influence to put it the best way i can grow how much how much the settlements have expanded eccentrics cetera and when you look at those mumps it does graphically kind of highlight why what the palestinians are upset. well in fact the palestinians are not upset with israel and we've the palestinians are upset with the palestinian leadership in fact

only when the palestinian authority does that, then we can talk about the possibility of rebuilding ational movement. meanwhile, we cannot take the pa seriously. president trump's son-in-law jared kushner is heading the trump administration's efforts to broker an israeli-palestinian peace plan. quietly, the kushner companies charitable foundation is continuing to fund a far right wing israeli settlement in the west bank that is considered illegal under international law. propublica reports the christian cup these charitable foundation made a donation of at least $18,000 at the master billows level -- builder's level. while the charity is given to the settlement in the past, propublica reports this appears to be the first time to have done so while kushner, whose title is senior advisor to the president, is the lead administration official brokering a peace plan. rebecca vilkomerson, you're the head ojewish voices for peace. could you comment on this, the fact the president's son-in-law is part of a foundation that is providing funding to this far right wing group in israel? and also,

the palestinian authority doesn't even hide it, they admit, this is known and certainly needs to end d for taylor force -- the whole debate. we hear about palestinian murdering israelis, taylor force, united states army veteran, it was so cool to have stewart and robbie in the gallery as we were passing legislation this past week and taylor's presence was there and as i mentioned during debate, i stand with taylor force, we are standing with tailor force in a situation that hopefully something very positive can come from it because the palestinian authority needs to change behavior. eric: they say it's a social welfare program and things will fall apart if they stop this, number one and number two, it's now up to the senate, do you think it'll pass there and will it eventually get to the president's desk and what will the president do? >> i don't know of any senators who would vote against it, we will find out, so i do expect this bill to pass the senate and to go to the president's desk, president trump and ambassador haley, the entire administration they already have in different wa

details this is another day of rage here in the west bank city of ramallah the capital of palestinian authority there have been many days like this following the interims controversial decision to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel the palestinians as you know consider the eastern part of the hope to be zero territory and of course the have been encouraged dramatically by these announcements there have been violent protests all over the world among palestinians and those who sympathize with that of course the palestinian authority we hear that there are hundreds of protesters participating in today's event and again. now. the officer is talking to journalists saying that we have to have to move this i.d.'s is it dangerous to stay here ok thank you. and you can follow me on twitter for her updates from. a wheelchair bound palestinian man who died in clashes with israeli police is becoming a symbol of the resistance the president trumps announcement on jerusalem u.n. human rights chief has called for an impartial investigation into the death of abraham to. say that there's a strong sugg

if it does they the thing about drucilla is that in the palestinian authority point of view they don't really have control over it it's in israeli. you know israeli police run the show here and i mean they don't have control what happens in the street in jerusalem or in the west bank they could if you know america declares moves their procedures on anything could happen it's true when they say they don't have control because they really won't happen till they barely have control now and you can see there's a lot of panic you know mahmoud abbas has called eight or nine wolves leaders in the past day them to urge president trump not to do this you could sense the panic among officials about this happening into the honest israelis don't seem to be talking about it much that that much at all so what is. we're heading there and i don't know. if the president. can hear the frustration in your voice thank you very much for telling us a little bit more about the situation correspondent with the times of israel which is based there in jerusalem on a lighter note now we're going to take a look a

president a bass of the palestinian authority travelled to jordan to bass of the palestinian authorityan to talk bass of the palestinian authority travelled to jordan to talk to the king. on saturday, there is a meeting in istanbul for the organisation of islamic states. thank you forjoining us again. that is the view in easternjerusalem. later in the hour, we will be talking to a diplomat representative of the israeli embassy here in london for their perspective. it is nine minutes past five. the number of patients waiting four hours or more to be seen in accident and emergency units across the uk has more than doubled in the past four years, according to research done by the bbc. northern ireland has the worst performance, but england has seen the fastest deterioration. the government says more money is being made available in england to help hospitals cope this winter, as our health correspondent dominic hughes reports. right across the uk, accident and emergency departments have been working at full capacity. now, bbc analysis shows how an already busy system is struggling to cope.

but apparently by hamas and jihad in islam at least together with the palestinian authority and factor they agreed that it's not about time for another war today with israel and i think the us try to contain any kind of. a scary action in the area that's the decision if you like now regard less you'll find sometimes some other smaller organizations who do not agree on that and they might tend to escalate and neutrally whatever happened from gaza i would blame hamas and will target hamas so i don't think that how masses are ready today nor they are wanted to start a kind of a new war in gaza but this israeli will target hamas anyway in any case anyone did something from gaza and the last two days we have witnessed like these two incidents yesterday there was some rockets fired from gaza and today there was some rockets fired from gaza in both. the israeli had retaliated directly against. which means that sometimes you will find you know some smaller groups who could manage to just send our rockets to israel and that is not contained by the personal authority nor by hamas and it is reall

of a two state solution they will recognize to what has happened so far the fact that the palestinian authority the senior palestinian leadership has reacted in the way that it has an assert that it is totally disassociate mix itself from the americans as any kind of honest broker in the peace process they're talking about an end to the two state solution peace process. under american stewardship so there is a great deal of concern. front as well. carrefour said with the latest from occupied east jerusalem harry thank you. for the palestinian president says he's rallying international opposition to president comes decision to recognize jerusalem as israel's capital which he called on unacceptable crime there have also been protests in gaza against the decision from where bernard smith now reports. this is a scene being repeated across the palestinian territories we are like the palestinian people we will not accept this state to fight and fight and fight to get jurors all i am have a telephone to sign. but beyond protesting palestinian leaders are now trying to come up with a unified action pla

there is a frustration with the palestinian authority not that they haven't been able to stop this but they have that they have over the past few years been too. quiet that they had compromised way too much and that nothing that the palestinians haven't received received anything in return you know from the point of view of the palestinians many things have changed over the past twenty years here there's been a separation wall settlements have expanded their land is is shrinking abided day and is still no way close to getting any kind of peace deal not forgetting obviously that gaza is under blockades of certainly all of that is a lot of change for the palestinians now there was sort of. the palestinian authority was in bracing itself for this announcement they were all over the past twenty four hours or so before the end aisles with wondering how far reaching will be whether trump would declare both jerusalem as the capital of israel and announce the move of the embassy both have happened we heard after president mahmoud abbas saying the same thing that sidebar cuts said that now the.

obviously the palestinian authority has not made any decision on that whatsoever.ll be watching that situation closely as well. but in terms of what is happening here, the atmosphere a lot of anger still and frustration among palestinians about this decision. but not yet sure whether that is going to turn into any kind of massive or large-scale demonstrations across this city or elsewhere in the west bank today. but it is something that everybody here is on high alert for. yasmin? >> amongst israelis, we know this was part of netanyahu's directives in '90s. a lot of leaders not necessarily outwardly behind him -- outwardly they were behind him, but behind closed doors they weren't behind him. are we feeling sort of a sense of israeli still very much behind this decision by president trump? >> reporter: you know, i think that also falls a little bit along party lines and certainly your political lienings. there is no doubt overall israelis consider jerusalem to be their capital. so, across the political divide, people would look at this and say this was a good decis

from the palestinian authority to branch out some some of the senior officials you speak to will tell you the they always wanted to do that but they always came under a lot of pressure from the u.s. directly through the u.s. from israel not to even think about it if you recall i mean in the past the e.u. has tried to have a role in the peace negotiations between the two sides but that was immediately limited by the u.s. so certainly you have that push at the moment the palestinian authority feeling that this is the time for them to reach out as much as possible and then when it comes to that specific issue they will have a lot of public support even though the palestinians also point the finger at their own leadership for the state of affairs but when it comes to finding new avenues will finding new reaching out to new countries and finding new ideas on how to eventually have a palestinian state or who they are best will find a lot of backing how the abdel-hamid meeting is the very latest from thank you very much indeed well kerry forces joins us live from west jerusalem i'm hi i'm ju

inside is that that's why this plan carries such high stakes the palestinian authority which claims used to use them as the capital of a future palestinian state because it would destroy any prospect of a two state solution. occupied east jerusalem well christians are an integral part of palestinian society however israel's wars on palestinian territories have pushed many out worldwide there are hundreds of thousands of palestinian christians but only a small percentage have remained in the territories malcolm webb went to gaza to find out how they're making the best of a very difficult situation. this is all of residents i has extended family that's what galavis christmas. son went to the occupied west bank three years ago and never came back he took his two sons forward to their future here in gaza. one of her daughters moved to canada six years ago a family that bad other life is very difficult in gaza we live under siege and we cannot move anywhere gaza has become a big prison we've witnessed many was during the bombing we had to sleep in the church for safety the the story of rosett

there are reports egypt's coptic church will not meet with him and neither will palestinian authority president mahmoud abbas. >> on that point, the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is set to meet with the french president emmanuel macron in paris. let's bring in ian lee following this story for us live in jerusalem. ian, good to have you with us. to get a sense of what is happening there, tell us about the mood today on the streets. we have seen protests and more are expected. >> reporter: that's right, george. in about, oh, an hour's time we're expecting more protests to kick off in jerusalem and possibly the west bank. when watching these protest s o a daily basis, going out to them, on thursday we saw the largest protests with thousands of people going out all over the palestinian territories, this time, though, yesterday, we went to the same place, the numbers have dwindled. when we were watching ben wedeman's reporting, we saw a large number of people in the streets. and we haven't seen those numbers sustain themselves here in jerusalem in the west bank in gaza. the num

well certainly from the palestinian authority they will discuss whether or not they should meet mike pence the vice president has been dispatched by donald trump to the middle east to speak to the people here in israel in the occupied territories in palestine and also in egypt to explain the thinking behind donald trump's the session but you have to remember that mike pence is an evangelical christian who is one of those pushing donald trump into this and stood behind him as he made the announcement for the other meeting well we're expecting there to be condemnation of the united states action but certainly when we were listening to donald trump speaking at a rally in florida on friday night there is no suggestion that he is going to back down from this he didn't mention this specifically which is unusual because normally donald trump would say remember during the campaign trail when i promised that we would move the u.s. embassy to jerusalem will mark that one off i've already made that announcement and that is going to happen probably to big cheers from his supporters even though t

also the palestinian authority is calling for emergency talks over the possibility that the u.s. embassy in israel could be moved from tel aviv to jerusalem the arab league and the organization of islamic cooperation are being asked to host the meeting donald trump is expected to make a decision as early as this week thousands of people have been demonstrating on the streets of homs jurists following a disputed presidential election and the electoral commission has yet to declare a winner those were the headlines you can follow the news on our website at al-jazeera dot com the news hour is here to stay with us. the international campaign to abolish nuclear weapons has been awarded the nobel peace prize in an exclusive interview with the winning delegation from the award ceremony in oslo al jazeera asks whether banning these devastating weapons could finally lead to complete disarmament on al-jazeera.

president mark munevar ‘s the palestinian authority president mark munevar's —— the palestinianspirits among palestinians dampen busier by those events, deep concern and disappointment about the pronouncement of donald trump over jerusalem, which israelis have praised and z is simply in their view a recognition of reality. —— and z is simply. you touched on that. will that change the mood, what president trump has done?m certainly has done among palestinians. in the west bank, in eastjerusalem, there are around 50,000 palestinian eastjerusalem, there are around 50 , 000 palestinian christians eastjerusalem, there are around 50,000 palestinian christians and for them, these celebrations are very much damp and —— damp and by what has been said. we have seen the last couple of weeks, almost daily clashes both in the west and gaza between palestinians and israeli troops. —— in the west bank and gaza. some have felt that the clashes have not been to the level that some had feared or predicted when president trump's announcement was mooted but it sets the tone for many people here who

while it happen if the palestinian authority collapsed? >> they have good explainers on the issue. and hypothesizes that if the palestinian --hority collapses, police peace would be unlikely. the paper says israel would have to choose between being a jewish state or a democratic one. the times says that's because palestinians would not have a state and would eventually be entirely under israeli rule. genie: let's move to french politics. voted the head of the main conservative opposition party. >> he is all over the french papers this morning. nearly 100,000 party members voted yesterday for him. they backed the 42-year-old. that is more than the party expected. it's a real win or the senator. there will be no doubt that he has a legitimacy of the right party. that's a change. the party has suffered from years of clinical infighting. rivals received 16% and 9% of the vote, he has a real mandate. genie: it doesn't mean it will be smooth sailing for him. politico, he is the bad boy of the right. he is a hard charging right-winger. he needs to win back voters. he may do that. you may

identification of jerusalem is subject to final status negotiation between israel and the palestinian authority and australia supports the two state solution with both israel and a future palestinian state exist side-by-side with the international mechanized borders. we continue to call on both sides to return to negotiations as soon as possible. australia is deeply concerned about the level of tension in the region and the potential for violence. we understand that this is a sensitive and emotional issue. we do not support and we are not told the united states that it supports the decision, washington is where that australia has a long-standing policy about the location of australia's embassy in tel aviv and as i said before we will continue our diplomatic representation to israel from our embassy in tel aviv. >> thank you mr. president. germany said they've taught policies are white the us is starting to crumble and donald trump will be called to discuss the issue. turkeys are there to be irreversible consequences. sweden has called it catastrophic. australia has said that this is a matter fo

hard to believe that there's any prospect for that to be followed up given the fact that the palestinian authority president today and in his christmas message said that said that the united states simply will not have any role as far as the palestinians are concerned in formatting some kind of settlement the other thing i think we ought to be watching is that there are there the palestinian authority gets two hundred fifty million dollars a year at least in the budget proposed for this year and twenty eighteen and it will be interesting to see whether there will be any kind of retaliation against the palestinian authority who of course also voted in favor of the resolution we'll see what does happen suddenly coming out of the moment tom thanks very much. let's head to europe now spain's political crisis looks to continue have to separate his parties won't be buying seats in catalonia it's not reach an election not to resoundingly victory as a pro unity party became the largest in the council on parliament but the result is still a blow to the spanish prime minister brown of the whole cold of vote

but there is also the long-term question as to what does the palestinian authority do now? there were calls today among the protesters to recognizing israel to end the peace proprocess. also heard from the palestinian prime minister who said this decision has exposed what the united states is. which is it is not an honest broker in the middle east peace process. it should not be trusted to negotiate a settlement between the israelis and palestinians. one of the chief negotiators here saying that effectively yesterday's decision, trump's decision dealt a death blow to the two-state solution and now the only solution that is available is a one-state solution we equal rights for all of palestinians. >> thanks very much. stay safe while you're there. want to get back to the discussion i was going to have. a lot of people wonder whether this will trigger an intifada. the first is generally accepted to have started in 1987. it escalated when a young palestinian protester who was shot during riots in the gaza strip, he was protesting the deaths of four palestinians during a traffic
