a senior official with the plo and we brought the substance of these leaked documents to her and we her just that very question which is what is her response to the an assertion to put pressure on the south african government to vote against the gold stone reports and the doctor very quickly dismissed this claim saying she believed it was very unlikely and more specifically she didn't think that the israelis would be involved in that way. however, the reason this is being given some weight or credence is we have to consider the time that this leaked document comes from from 2009 when relations between hamas and the other was at an all-time low and it was ex speedent for them not to go with the war charges against israel because that would in some way bolster hamas in gaza whatever the case we have been saying the doctor from the palestinian authority is denying this here is what she told us. >> i'm not aware of this and i am surprised. i don't think that president hamas deployed or needed this type of lobbying at all and therefore i think if israelis volunteered to do things on thei

so now that the pa and plo have been linked what are the ramifications for those organizations? >> well it certainly raises questions about the activities that those two organizations were involved in back during the second period of intense violence between 2000 and 2005. in order other words, it's pointing out what we already knew that yasser arafat had funds that he siphoned off to other groups that carried out some fairly gruesome attacks. >> this is the second verdict like this. the other one was about five months ago against the arab bank. hypothetically could legal action say, be brought against the saudi government for something like the 9/11 hijackers? >> well we already have a court case along those lines against the saudis, but i think we are now going to be looking ahead to this isis phenomenon. i think there are going to be some people looking at the ways that isis is gaining funds. we know of various financiers coming out of for example qatar or turkey or kuwait. so it's possible that individuals or entities could be held liable including the governments themselves

>> that's right, we spoke with the senior official with the plo. o her the contents of these leaked spy cables and asked her specifically that question about these direct contacts made by the cia to hamas in 2009. now, she said that it didn't surprise her and that the palestinian leadership has known for some time there were ties between hamas and various security agencies including the cia. she went on to say that what this also tells them is that the u.s. in their own way recognizes or accepts hamas as part of the political process. however, she did go on to say or rather question why the u.s. continues to keep hamas designated as a terrorist organization and went on to say she also questions why the u.s. follows israel's precedent in this matter. now, in saying that we did follow-up that question with if the cia and indeed the u.s. is trying to have direct ties with hamas, what does that mean for the leadership here in the west bank more specifically for fata and does that diminish their power or relationship with the u.s., she replied that she d

what do you make of this plo poles for a united arab force. that would be boots on the ground, as they say, combat force to go in there and destroy isis and iraq in syria, libya, presumably elsewhere. how realistic is this idea? >> strategically it sounds great and would be a great piece for all of the arab nation to get together. the gcc, the gulf council countries, they already have a force called peninsula shield 40,000 folks. so strategically it's a great idea and it's great for us in the u.s. to get the arab forces out in front. however tactically is whether you start to run into problems and commanding and controlling. a few years ago the u.s. helped bolster the command and control by setting up a joint command headquarters to help the aspects which egypt is not part of. again what i like to see is at least we're talking about it and maybe we can help get some mo men full to make this an arab fight. >> the gcc, gulf cooperation council, including the uae in saudi arabia other countries in that area. what do you think, bob baer? is this possible to form this kind o
