states in that position. the united states' position right now, i believe they have a contract with bashar al-assad to give all his chemical weapons back. the doomsday scenario, if bashar falls right now, who is going to have possession of these chemical weapons. jihadists, afghani type rebel groups, and the united states knows that very well. >> rose: so we have an interest in assad stale staig in power until all the chemical weapons are eliminated, at least until then. >> sure enough, by the deadline of first november, where he was supposed to give back all his-- all the companies that manufacture such weapons were the day before the deadline. right now we have another deadline, which is june, to have all the chemical weapons destroyed. >> rose: let me turn to iran. what is the saudi position on iran and iran's acquisition of nuclear weapons development. >> the position of saudi arabia is like the position of the united states and everybody else in the world. to have iran nuclear free. and we are very concerned from t

united states position -- the united states position was to not use pressure to pave the way for war. if there is not a deal, if diplomacy is not permitted to succeed, the only options the administration will have is down the road -- a military confrontation. the american public does not want to have a march to war. there is frustration with the overzealousness of the israeli occupation. it doesn't mean that the united states and israel's relationship is going to be damaged, but there is a tactical difference on this issue. the determination on the american side not to have this lead to a war is strong. on the israeli side, there is a preference to see united states take military action. host: twitter comment -- i agree with netanyahu. it was a have most -- a historic mistake, that it was iran that made that mistake. mark is up next on the republican line from a. good morning, mark. caller: good morning. dr. parsi uses very strong language. he says that -- iran has outwardly stated that it is going to destroy israel, not as recently as a few days ago, the leader called israel a rabid

recognized the right to safeguard in richmond that was the position of the united states until the end of the cold war and then we decided to try to unilaterally rewrite the treaty because we didn't want non western countries getting fuel cycle capabilities ok valorie in paris before going to break you want to react to that i mean it sounds very hypocritical on the part of the western powers well i mean i think in the case in the in the case that we're talking about here let's just leave aside the right to in return let's look at the fact that iran to rein him in richmond program was built up in secret using illicit imports and has has a lot there are a lot of unanswered questions about this sort of history of iran's nuclear work the u.n. security council all the member states have voted several times for iran to cease a lot of this nuclear activity and to resolve outstanding questions they have been linked to nuclear weapons potentially nuclear weapons work so there are a lot of things here that iran needs to answer for and i think you know. this sort of this notion of acknowledging a

last time around there was division even within that group and i think they are trying to get a united positiont they can then take to the iranians. it was the french who have the toughest line on this. and the french said they had problems with one of the proposed drafts, particularly what happened to the stockpile of enriched uranium, enriched up to the 20% level which could be quite quickly turned into weapon's grade. and they are worried about the heavy water plant which is under construction right now. the irans don't want that halted in this first interim deal. the israelis are also concerned about this plant because it would give iran a root to nuclear weapons using uranium and mru -- plutonium. if you were to stage a attack that could release the radiation and potentially kill thousands. >> james why should we think even an interim deal is in the works here? what has happened in the two weeks since? >> they have been doing very hard negotiations. don't think that just because they are back here in geneva all of it stopped. there have been daily discussions about how to move things forwa

he has outlined the united states' position. is it possible you have got this entirely wrong? do you reserve the right to bomb iran? is that what you are saying to the u.s.? of the deals us with north korea in 2005, which everyone celebrated as a great romantic victory. the north koreans exploded their first nuclear device. -- everyone celebrated as a great victory. that is why they want enrichment . they are building a heavy water reactor or. -- reactor. the proposals on the table do not stop the heavy water reactor. >> what you are saying to me can only mean one thing. there is a profound crisis and the united states. your views are diametrically opposed. >> all indications at this moment are that we are going to get a ad deal out of geneva. >> you have made that point. inthere now a crisis relations between israel and washington? these proposals are adopted, it is a dark day, it is a ad day. it is a -- it is a bad day. iranians get their yellowcake and they can eat it too. they get the sanctions lifted and they make no meaningful concessions whatsoever. topet's go back to o

there's pivoty towards the united states -- pivoty positivity towards the united states. 5 plus one. instead of saying death to america, death to israel, there are jokes at the anti-hegemonic rallies it will be death to france. the president, of course, has spoken. hassan rouhani has been talking about uranium enrichment being the iranian red line. a lot of international watchers in israel - hawkish about iran's nuclear program, hoped that iran's nuclear program would scupper. it doesn't appear that that's anything on the tables that the iranians would agree to. they haven't talking about what level. there is a frustration here, but a little optimism as well towards the powers and the united states. >> presumably some of that opt miss -- opt miss m extends to talks later in the month. >> it's a good sign, it's not far away. when hassan rouhani won the presidency in iran, he promised to get this kick started and get things going. it's been three months, and almost 100 days today, actually, since he's been in office. so in that time he managed to get the nuclear talks going
