joining me now is israel's man in the united states, the ambassador, ron dermer. >> good to be with you. >> a lot to unpack here. first of all, the latest palestinian/hamas offer being brokered through egypt, is this a nonstarter or a legitimate effort? >> first, listen. i just heard the report of hamas questioning the u.s.-israeli relationship which i can tell you is strong, stronger than ever. this is the same hamas celebrating on 9/11 when thousands of americans were killed. and they condemn the united states for killing osama bin laden. the reporter in gaza should not forget who hamas is and what they're about. >> i don't think he has. he's reporting from the ground what is happening to the people there. but the point here is that there's a new palestinian proposal. we know that israel was the first to accept a ceasefire which hamas did not accept and that there were violations after the extended humanitarian ceasefire over the weekend. no argument there. but at this stage, with the palestinian offer that apparently on the table, is it something that israel could accept? >> we have

and right now israeli ambassador to the united states ron dermer joins us. >> getting better or worse>> i would say getting worse. more rockets fired at israel. 400 rockets fired in the last three days and the range of those rockets have israel's 66 million of 8 million citizens under rocket attack and having to go into bomb shelters. in american terms, that's well over 200 million people. imagine 200 million americans who had to go into bomb shelters and imagine, greta, what they would want their government and military to do to deal with that threat. >> all right. the iron dome has been very successful so far in helping to defeat the rockets coming from hamas is the level of protection 100% and, you know, how long you can depend on the iron dome. >> it's not 100% but it's pretty good. pretty high and we are deeply appreciative of the support we have gotten from the united states in actually building that system. it's israeli technology but american finance and it was supported both by the white house, president obama and also in congress bipartisan support on both sides of the aisle

joining me now israel's ambassador to the united states, ron dermer. ambassador, 40,000 israeli troops are at the ready. are we going to see a ground war next? >> well, look, what the prime minister has done is he's mobilized 40,000 reservists. of those 20,000 have been called up. the prime minister of israel has to take the action necessary in order to protect our population. we have had 6 million israelis who have been in bomb shelters, and these are women, children, elderly, who have to spend nights in bomb shelters. so imagine what would happen in the united states if you had 200 million americans who were spending the night in bomb shelters, what they would want their government and military to do to protect them. we have to take the action we have to take in order to protect our civilians. we hope that more serious action won't be needed and that hamas will end the rocket attacks but as of a few minutes ago they're continuing to fire rockets at israel and we have to do what we have to do to protect ourselves. >> you heard martin fletcher describe

. >>> now israel's ambassador to the united states ron dermer. with us tonight. >> thank you for having me. >> what happened here is horrific and we don't yet even know how many children may have died. initial reports indicate that at least 16 are dead. and the initial reports that this attack had come from israeli tanks. the ifsraeli military said it my have come from hamas and a rocket that misfired. do you know any more at this point? >> no, but i do know who is responsible for it. that's hamas because they're using schools as weapons depots. it would be a disservice for your viewers for a reporter from gaza not to mention that last week we had two schools where we had actually rockets found in the schools and handed over to hamas. >> these are two different u.n. schools you're saying? >> that's correct. that's publicly available information. it's kind of an important fact for your reporter to mention. he might have wanted to mention a statement made not by the israeli ambassador, not by a spokesman of the idf but a spokesman of the united nat

ambassador to the united states, ron dermer.esident perez, he told becky anderson that the ground forces could be out soon. the operation will be expanded and will continue until the firing come the community stops and quiet is restored. >> should we expect israeli ground troops in gaza and more largely, is there even a military solution to this problem? >> you should expect israel's government to do what any government would do. we have 6 million israelis over the last two days that have had to run into bomb shelters in israel. we've had air sirens go off in tel aviv which is our new york, in jerusalem which is our washington and you can imagine what the american people would demand their government to do if two-thirs to three-quarters of the population of the country had to run into bomb shelters. the prime minister of israel will do what he has to do to end the rocket attacks. we don't have a five-point cease-fire. stop rocket attacks against israel. it's very simple. >> you say you and your governments say you're targeting h

earlier today, she sat down with israel's ambassador to the united states, ron dermer. interview took place before the israeli military agreed to a u.n. brokered "pause" in the fighting. >> warner: ambassador dermer, thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> warner: today the academy called up 8,000 reservist bringing the number to 50,000. after what happened yesterday is a ground invasion of gaza imminent? >> the security cabinet met early that morning, accepted the cease fire proposal from egypt. a cease-fire proposal that was accepted by the international community and the arab league. hamas wouldn't agree to that, forced israel into continued operations and last night the security cabinet met and has given now the authority to the prime minister to take the action he needs to take in order to protect the israeli people, including any action he needs whether military or diplomatic, and i think the 8,000 reservists that were called up makes sure that the prime minister has all the tools at his disposal to protect the israeli people. >> warner: your foreign minister s

. >>> we're joined now by the israeli ambassador to the u.s., ron dermer. first of all, profound condolences on the deaths of the three jewish teenagers whose bodies with found this week. you heard alex mention the tape that clearly appears to involve excessive force. >> well, i saw that video, and obviously it was very disturbing. excessive force is not something that we accept in israel, and there's an investigation by our justice ministry to look into exactly what happened. it's important to understand from what i understand about this particular incident, this boy was one of six boys who had attacked the police with petrol bombs, with molotov cocktails. our police are under extreme threat in the jerusalem area. they're facing mobsters and rioters. it doesn't mean that excessive force is acceptable. it's never acceptable. >> and you would agree that looks like excessive force. >> yeah, it looks that way, but i can't rush to judgment. >> this young american's cousin was also killed. the autopsy showed he was burned alive. i know some arrests have been mad

joining us now, israel's ambassador to the united states ron dermer.e show this morning. >> thank you. >> first i want to talk about the criticism for secretary kerry. you called it unwarranted. what do you think is behind it in the quest for a cease-fire ultimately? >> first of all, it's not the prime minister driving it. you have to understand who is making the criticism and where it's coming from. there were two journalists who i think had the most withering criticism of the prime minister. to believe that netanyahu is writing talking points -- this is the israeli press speaking. we have a free country. there's a lot of debate within israel. as andrea said earlier, 87% of the israeli people are against the cease-fire. so my sense is one of the reasons why the secretary had a problem not from the prime minister but from the public was that he was trying to advance a sustainable seize fire and we appreciate his efforts to do so. the prime minister appreciates both what president obama and secretary kerry have said and done about israel's right to defe

. >>> let's turn to ron dermer, israel's ambassador to the united states. again and again they say they don't target civilians, they go above and beyond to minimize civilian casualties. yet we continue to see civilians die. the death toll is up to a thousand. we saw the strike on the un school. how would you grade israeli forces in terms of its stated mission of minimizing civilian casualties. >>> you have to put it in context. what do you think united states would do if you had 200 million americans in bombshell terse, 3,000 rockets fired at you by an terrorist organization committed to your production, using your own people as shields, using schools, using mosques, using tunnels into israel. given all those facts israel has taken great care to avoid civilian casualties. we're fighting an enemy that hides behind their civilians. that is the problem. >> it is the problem. i guess that raises the question then why play into hamas' hands. israeli officials say this is a strategy by hamas, to rack up the civilian death toll and get the tim sympathy of the worl

march, representative from montana's crow tribe presented a formal resolution to israeli ambassador ron dermer in my office here in washington. the resolution from the crow legislature to the israeli people affirmed their support of israel's right to exist and recognized their shared challenges of maintaining political and territory independence and a deep connection to to their ancestral homelands. but during this meeting, in my office with crow tribal leaders and israeli ambassador dermer, israeli ambassador dermer's cell phone went off but it wasn't a call. it wasn't a text message, it wasn't an email. it was an app he had on his phone that many israelis have to warn them of impending rocket attacks. it was a sober realization that each time his phone made that noise, fearful israeli families had seconds to scramble for their lives. as the israeli people remain steadfast in confronting these threats, they deserve our unyielding support now and in the future. america's commitment to israel must never waiver. we must stand with israel. i yield back my time. mr. stewart: thank you, mr. daines.
