that we return to our prophetic voice in exposing the strange fruit in our society and upholding the moral authority. one example of that is reverend jeremiah a. wright was abandoned by our president of the united states for challenging the moral authority. now in america, and challenges the moral authority of its president-elect. was told to be quiet for speaking out against islamophobia and racism, now america has elected president who perpetuates these acts of hatred and is unapologetic in his divisive rhetoric. reverend wright was told he was an embarrassment to the nation and now our nation is a joke to the world. the prophetic voice of one who dared to speak to the reality of a thriving and robust state of racism in america was mocked and reduced to jokes calling him the crazy uncle. now an america has come to realize that the wisdom of the sage has been redeemed and the roosters have come home to roost. i only ask that if reverend wright was the proverbial bewildered uncle, then who is donald trump?

of the territories that they regard as historic israel. the conflict continues in the divideand thedivided society. palestinians are themselves divided. the palestinian authority have long since renounced violence and have accepted the resistance and have opted for peaceful negotiation to achieve the state. that hasn't worked and therefore gives ammunition, no pun intended to hamas and those in the palestinian society that believe only the use of violence will end the occupation and provide the palestinian state so in both societies do have substantial groups who do not favor. >> host: what you recommend coming into this interesting idea of providing incentives which might help but just a couple more questions. the arab spring which they now call the tunnel or earthquake has really failed and has created or fueled many of the states in the region. you add the flow out of syria, to quote the president elect, a huge problem that is destabilizing both lebanon and jordan among others. one of the things that occurred to me that was interesting is the idea of those that want to overthrow, corrupt and the tyrannical governments wasn't about israel. it was about their

authority. those are not traditional monarchical societys. one of the things you may remember when we started this project, we said this is about a crisis of legitimacy in the middle east and we said, of course, legitimacy comes from the consent of the government and the ability to lead to services. a number of people said, wait, wait, that isn't a sophisticated enough. there are other forms of legitimacy in the region based on tribal associations, religious affiliations, revolutionary ideology. there are a range of forms of legitimacy. so how do you square that? you know, what is -- as we look at the middle east going forward past 2011, what do we say about legitimacy and what do we say to these regimes that may be teetering on the shelf but have not fallen off? what in this post-2011 world, what is the way -- what would we recommend to leaders as to how to enhance the legitimacy of their regimes before they go through what these other countrys have gone through? >> i think tammy mentioned social contract a lot. and i think we have to remember what

journalists and moviemakers and historians and the authors of schoolbooks and so on, this had to be generated and expanded and kept alive. thatthis suggests to me societyded such legends, to makey enable them sense of what was going on. otherwise, an event the magnitude of verdun would become incomprehensible. and that myth, that central myth, at least on the french side -- and then i want to stop very soon, but that myth on the french side, france had been invaded. a german victory, they said then, and they continue to say later on, would mark the victory of an imperial, authoritarian empire over a liberal republic, and then later, or once the war ring it,, even du depending, they said that anyone who doubted the reality of that vision had only to look at the assembled ingram september 1914, the german wargames set forth there, known later on, it might also look at the terms imposed by germany and russia in 1918, while the war was still going on in the west, it would point to this and say this, this version of things is not an invention. becomes anse, verdun battle for salvation. i don't think anyone can dare call that myth a lie. the germans, the myt
