set no limits as to how its ally could use the information noughties paulus led joins me live from tel aviv paula tell us more about what's in this leak. well what we're talking about here is a top secret a five page memorandum of understanding that lays out all the details of intelligence sharing between the n.s.a. and its israeli counterpart what it does reveal is that the n.s.a. routinely shade intelligence with israel without first sifting this information to remove information that is inside relating to american citizens it states that israel is allowed to receive intelligence signal it includes and evaluated and minimize transcripts just faxes telex voice and digital network intelligence metadata and content and that is a quote at the same time the agreement places no legally binding limits on the use of the daughter by the israelis so while the memorandum does say that the material has to be handled in accordance with us law and at the same time these raids have agreed not to deliberately target americans who identified in the datta there is no kind of legal obligation to back up the

she joins us now from tel aviv. margaret, he is there there to tell the israelis what this agreement means and so on. how is this going? >> reporter: well, bob, secretary kerry is trying to reassure israeli prime minister netanyahu that this is not just an agreement based on words. it will be one based on results. the israelis have sort of cautious optimism. that's how the press is covering it. the idea is that the message being sent to damascus is going to be received really in tehran. the idea that weapons and disarmament in syria is sort of being seen as a model for how the international community might challenge iran about its nuclear program is the focus in many ways of the debate here in israel. keep in mind, there is this diplomatic agreement but it was really hastily put together over two and a half days of around-the-clock negotiations in geneva. so there are a lot of unanswered questions and technical details including who is going to provide security for the weapons inspectors who are going in to an activ

try and put some more meat on this and trying get some more details and clarify paula slee is in tel aviv for us are there paula you heard what i said there are no you're across this is lines coming in the last couple of hours can you tell us any more. kevin we don't have too much information at that stage just to me to break point that you have making we're being told that an anonymous source close to the syrian conflict say that there is a planned provocation what's the use of chemical weapons that will be carried out by the rebels inside syria from trixi that is controlled by the syrian president bashar assad on his role the information we're receiving is that this attack will happen in the nearest future and that they will be the use of so can chemical weapons now let's talk course what the blame on syrian government because it's coming from areas that are being held by the student government to nothing as a community in these a place although i want to make a point that we have seen emergency rule held in the last twenty four hours to katie in the north of the country and it will go

quote provocation attack using chemical weapons against israel live no doughty's paula slater in tel aviv for more on this obviously those concerns that uncorroborated let's talk about where they may have come from and how strong it may be those concerns being greeted very seriously in israel. when it said he will be taken very seriously here in israel nothing as of yet in the israeli press or any kind of a. commons what we know is that r.t. sources are telling us that they have information that in the nearest future they will be an attack originating in the areas of syria where the rebels are present using certain and known chemical weapons against the territory of israel now there are two important points i want to make the first is that we are being told that these tax will originate in territory that has been controlled by the assad government so what this clearly means is that the blame will go towards the syrian regime but on the other hand it will be attacks that will be carried out by the syrian rebels as are so no reaction as of yet here in his role but in the last twenty four ho

change of tone between washington and tehran, but there is a change in tone between washington and tel aviv. it will be fascinating to see what they look like when we see pictures of them after this meeting which we should see in the next 20 minutes or so. we're hoping they'll make comments as well. they may or may not. >> call them far from being friends, what are both men looking to get out of today's meeting at the white house. >> prime minister netanyahu is looking for time lines. you can't blame the man. he thinks that iran is secretly building a nuclear bomb. this is all sweet talk as he put it yesterday. and behind the scenes what president rouhani is doing is buying time to build a nuclear bomb. israeli country would be in the front line if they were able to do that, and it is likely israel that will be attacked. he's looking for a timeline like the one at the u.n. last year when he drew that comic bomb and the red line at the top. that represents the moment that israel would attack iran if they went to that point in their uranium enrichment program. he's looking for promises from p

. >> and then start with tel aviv, where kerry is. >> what is his focus in israel now? >> well, he is building confidence in the deal now. he will be meeting with netanyahu in jerusalem as we speak, and the only way jerusalem is confident, and then he will go on to saudi, and this is about building confidence in the deal and letting our allies know this is something they can count on and letting them know how the u.s. and how russia are going to make sure that syria follows through on its promises on that very ambitious timeline you described. >> paris is up next on the secretary's itinerary. what are the authorities in france saying about this deal? they have been the most supportive of a military strike. >> reporter: no question, and good question, and they were the first, of course, and the british were initially going to be onboard and they could not get the support in their parliament, and the initial reactions was it's a good deal and positive step forward, and that's how the french prime minister described it, and you have a plan, by november a complete catalogui

thank you very much from tel aviv for that update.al of honor recipient. i want to get your reaction to the president's somewhat surprise decision to seek congressional approval and not go ahead with military sprietri as we anticipated would happen. >> you can't have the secretary of state coming out and making probably the best speech of his entire career. a very impassioned and per swasive. getting kerry out front and cutting his legs out from under him makes it extremely difficult for kerry in the future to be able to represent that he is actually representing in foreign courts representing the will of the united states or even of the white house. >> okay. let's get to the military event if it happens, if congress gives approval and president carries it out. you have the goods to show us where would be the strikes. show us. >> the most important thing right away is to take out the air fields here represented by red airplanes. there are a number of significant airfields and they are the first targets for any attack. to the extent th

rockets into israel oral some terrorist attack on the ground and they have rockets that could hit tel aviv. that's a very real problem. we know it's a very real israeli fear, and the israelis today, richelle, are saying that in the event of any attack on them or u.s. interests, they will retaliate very, very hard indeed. >> in fact, president obama a moment ago said that the new threat, the threat for the future is fail states and terrorist aacts. those are the threats of the future. that's how he's speaking to the american audience. >> that's why it's so worrying today we have syria's press report saying that the u.s. has intercepted these communications between tehran and various militant groups as it's put. so they would do the work quietly behind the scenes and it wouldn't be a full-scale attack. worth bearing in mind that the man who heading up the iranian revolutionary guard has said as recently as this week any attack on syria would result in the destruction of israel. that's from the man that heads up the iranian revolutionary guard. i think it's also worth pointing out that we may
