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. one ofof the israeli intellectuals that dealt with this binational situation which we are in is the former deputy may

agriculture and palestinian villages, palestinian children on their way to school is really quite significant, unreported. an israeli is attacked, it becomes news. a palestinian is attacked or his orchards are cut down or vineyards are uprooted, it's not a story at all. it's not something we know about. the plan for design of the israeli occupation in the west bank has mirrored their plan for what they did in israel proper. they confiscated land around the settled areas, they built settlements -- the term the israelis used, they created landless peasants. they took people whose settlement, that is to say, whose agricultural and family owned lands were outside of the village, there was a collective ownership, they didn't live in individual, small farms as they do in upstate new york, they lived in a concentrated area and they farmed the lands outside of it. what israel did was seize the lands and either declared them state lands or security zones, and then began to build around it. nazareth elite built on nazareth land is -- a palestinian can't live there or be there. some have now come to liv

he is a canadian doctor and he went to gaza to help palestinians -- the palestinian-canadian dr.ek loubani, who was shot by israeli forces in both legs while he was helping treat palestinians injured by israeli forces during the nonviolent great march of return. it was 14. it was a monday. i asked dr. loubani -- this is right after he was shot -- if he felt he was targeted as a doctor. >> i don't know the answer to that. i don't know what orders they received or what was in their heads, so i can't tell you if we were deliberately targeted. what i can tell you is the things that i do k know. in the six weeks of the march, there were no paramedic casualties. and in one day, 1919 paramedics- 18 wounded, plus one killed -- and myself were all injured, so -- or were all shot with live ammunition. musa was actually in a rescue at the time, but everybody else i have talalked to was like me.. we were away during a lull, without smoke, without any chaos at all, anand we were targrgete- anand we were, rather, hit by le ammunition, most of us in the lower limbs. amy: so that was dr. tarek l

no palestinian businessmen. we got a note halfway through the meeting as we were continuing without them. saying that they were at the check point and they had no permits to get through in the israeli soldiersen wouldn't let them through. the effort to open the arab world to israel did not pay off in terms of support for any movement toward peace. from the very beginning, israel wanted normalization. they wanted o it skip to the end of the peace initiative and dump everything in between. and that, i'm afraid, is still where we are today. every move is pocketed with nothing coming back in return. so my sense is that we need to be very clear that normalization, not because one wants to reject the existence of israel, it exists. the foreign minister, the minister of state for foreign affairs is right. it's a state that exists in the region. but the reality is, doing business with it or accepting it as a normal state in the region doesn't help move forward the effort toward peace. the second is i i think we theed to

palestinians. ladies and gentlemen mr arafat chairman of the executive council of the palestine liberation organization is excellent see it start repeating prime minister of israel the president of the united states. the if you didn't wish them a. a look at them with. a letter. feel like maybe don't even. feel more. commercially how the injured as a largely. have lived under a few common eleven cup and the common man of pluck but handle it too far but there are. a lot of good will but that your comment the doors are opening for yasser arafat at the u.s. state department champagne and laughter swapping autographs with the israelis and handshakes with secretary of state christopher then as to that they have an agreement with israel it will bring them closer to washington. and we understand that if you make an agreement it can be grabbed and it will open up relations to the arab world this was egypt. was pretty ticked deal we were accepted by the world relations been us and our board moved the much eq

this is what palestinians see as theirs technically they only have gaza and. parts of the west bank what israelis refer to as judeo in some area palestine has never been independent the land has changed hands and names several times throughout history it was once called the kingdom of israel for example as well as palestrina but fast forward to nine hundred seventeen the brits are in charge and in one nine hundred forty seven the un decides to divide the british mandate for palestine and create two new states and independence home for palestinians and a safe haven for millions of genes scattered all over the world after centuries of persecution arabs were furious they were the majority of the time and felt that they were losing now to scientism a movement seeking to reestablish the biblical israel. palestinian streets used to give up but as for hold on to its independence through war even when other arabic countries joined the fight israel kept on winning and seasoned parts of their alliance. decades are on and the international consensus seems to be that the

agency that helps palestinians. what does this mean for palestinians? >> it will mean further him is a ration of a population in many places like the gaza strip were any point of a humanitarian crisis. this unrecognized genius and nikki haley's words, jared kushner, is pushing, which is to say there are no palestinian refugees. this is a false problem created by the arab states to embarrass israel that three generations on they should be forced to stay in the countries to which they were expelled by ethnic cleansing in 1948. and the problem is solved. israel kicked them out and they must not ever be allowed to return. kicking out a pillar of a settlement, making peace much more difficult. if the united states does that recognize e that our posting refugees, in jordan, for example because of jordanian nationality, they are t therefoe nonot refugeeses, then y you're denying one of the major issues that has bedeviled the world for 70 odd years. amy: i want to ask you about the 22-year-old student laura at the university of florida who has been detained in

approach to the palestinians? >> well, i actually signed a memo today with respect to the taylor force act denying $165 million that would have been appropriated to the cause. that number is a rough estimate of the amount of money that was paid out for the various violations the taylor force act was designed to enforce. you're right, the behavior has not changed materially. and this administration has taken a historic approach. it has said to the palestinians, we very much want you to have a space. you need to govern. you need to decide you want peace as well. we said the same thing to the palestinians both in the west bank and the gaza strip. we've not rolled out our plan for the peace process yet, but we will before too terribly long, and we're hopeful there will be parties on all sides that will be prepared to engage in a conversation about that. we are hopeful one day the palestinians will have the same opportunities that the people of israel have, right? a real economy, a real governance, all the things we wa
