that nobel had said could put peace prize should only go to those people actively engaged in peace and it's been hijacked by retired norwegian politicians and a cold war academic from the past who handed it out at will and there was a lot of criticism in norway when obama got it and when others caught it i mean this injury is a case in point. but numerous other people have got it and gabrielle garcia marquez himself a prize winner of the nobel prize winning on the critter said it would be more accurate to call it the nobel award price than they would give it to whoever they wanted whenever the vilifying of matthew actually got two people pled guilty to people who know about these prize al gore when we defeated theoretically more votes in two thousand and brock obama i mean that was it was a real sense that it was so much relief and so much anger george bush they gave it to two different people the one who really deserve the nobel peace prize who didn't get it i'm sure he is i doubt is bill clinton and he did make war in kosovo but that war was seen as a no other humanitarian interventi

command with the peace prize. ok gentlemen let's go back to the nobel prize here i'd like to listen to some of the words that barack obama gave for the committee which he picked up his award in two thousand and listen to what he had to say. so i come here with a sense of the costs of armed conflict i face the world as it is you cannot stand idle in the face of threats to the american people for make no mistake evil does exist in the world. well if i'm going to you believe always called obama be the commander in speech i mean we have to give him that at least the speaks very well but has he changed good is he tainted the the award because there's always expediency i mean he was elected by a group of people there is something called even i admit been bashing the interest he's going to act in the national interest as he understands it for his the people that voted for him ok and everything else is secondary ok so he ok he got the nobel prize well sorry i'm still going to be commander in chief i mean doesn't this is i

with israel and peace with hamas. peace with both is impossible because of the goal of hamas which is to destroy israel. >> where this leaves an already stalled peace process is not clear. the united states and european union also regard hamas as a terrorist organization. will they continue to give millions of dollars of aid to the palestinian authority if that hamas has a say in how it is spent? this is a breakthrough. there remains many obstacles to overcome. >> our correspondent in jerusalem said the agreement might be a significant moment for the peace process. >> this is a surprising and significant development because for the past four years these factions have been at each other's throats. this has been a violent and poisonous relationship. hamas is in charge of largely gaza. they have been at each other's throats. that is why the goal of a palestinian state has been far away. if there is unity among palestinians, that would be welcomed by most palestinians in the west bank and in gaza. it is a different questi

he has agreed peace on 67 borderline, the 47 borderline. we couldn't make peace.n the 67 he gave up 22% of the west bank. i shall never forget it. i think it was a real contribution. >> we have-- then it comes to the sizemore or less we can make a swap. >> are we further away today than we were. >> because. >> because one thing you have mentioned. they blin to build a state. you believe in this year they can get a vote at the united nations, recognizing a palestinian state. >> the vote without answering the real question,. >> some of them understand it, and i think dns-- others think they have no choice. >> but this is not a choice. >> the other choice is to complete the negotiations. either with more patient, make decisions, be courageous and they will do it. this is the best bet today. >> but why will it be destructive to declare the palestinian state. >> because -- >> what is the negative of it. >> this state would not be able to prevent the west bank from becoming gaza. >> maybe taken over by hamas. maybe serve as a base for firing missiles against us. it mayb

process because i don't see any peace being made. exactly and alan doesn't like history because history is very indicting really we think about it so fine let's not talk about the history of sixty years ago but. let's for a second here imagine what could possibly go through mahmoud abbas's there and by oh by the way i disagree with so many things that are has been has done but for a second here let's try to indulge yourself and think what mahmoud abbas would have said to alan at this point and i would say that he would say listen we've been doing we've been talking for about twenty years now not only did we waste so much time and we achieve nothing but we are actually regressing palestinians during that time lost so much more land the number of illegal settlers in oakey applied is jerusalem in the west bank has doubled gaza is under siege and is going through a process of protracted war thousands of people have been killed and injured since then and our economy is worsening our our situation our disunity there is so much that happene

thank you and peace be with you. three mike's here so i don't know if i should put this down. um... before i start, i've had the great honor to - i love to talk at schools. k through graduate school and one question i ask children in america is i ask them how many of you have talked great detail to your grandparents or elders or fore father's about world war ii or the depression or vietnam or civil rights movement, or perhaps if your parents or grandparents came from another country and settled here what it's like. only five to ten percent of the ands come up. if i asked that same question in afghanistan or pakistan or africa 90% of ands come up and i think the as great tragedy we've lost that oral tradition and a rich tradition about folklore and heritage and faith and heritage. to honor that today i'd like to share with you a little story. it's a hard cover book that came out in march of 2006. anybody have a hard cover. wave it up here. you might not want it after i say this. i got to pick the title. three cups of

we must be involved from negotiating that durable peace. part of the agreement in 2006 failed was because it was negotiated by the government. and they met and had an agreement and came back and asked the population of darfur and say here is a peace agreement and the population your peace agreement has nothing to to with us. so they say please don't repeat that. so we said fine and that won't the african union as a recommendation and they adopted this policy. so then we get the infraction from the african union that this is a policy that you must issue. it relates to this question of an interview -- inclusive network shaping process in darfur. and all of us agree except the support negotiations in darfur and they're saying that it's important that those negotiations -- it is among the belligerence, they have to concentrate in particular on issues of late to assess fire, -- cease-fire and other security arrangements. because that's an important part of any peace agreement of darfur that we get the dissertation of hostilities which can only b

even in syria, the word peaceful, the demonstrators, people are dying with the word peaceful, peaceful. this is the main slogan for the syrians. it's not just something that they created while demonstrating. this is parter their political strategy. i don't know if you agree. but it's peaceful demonstration deficitly what they want to do. whoever is going to be coming, they will carry peaceful methods throughout. i don't they will open any front, or other people in the region, it's going to be peaceful. this is a steal. hezbollah is worried about that. peaceful method are more effective than their own aggressive and violent and military methods. basically it is the situation. also the indictment that is coming hopefully very soon. nobody knows when it is going to be published. but this will also add to the fears of hezbollah. because so far before the syrian uprising happens, hezbollah didn't care about the sdl indictments. even if they were going to be accused, no one would be able to arrest any hezbollah member. no one would be able to do anything. hezbollah and syria agreed not to co
