isn't it true that in many arab countries hitting israel and supporting the palestine cause are two very disparate issues there are absolutely no reservations when it comes to expressing disdain for israeli policies but when it comes for example to hosting the palestinian refugees all landing political or diplomatic support to their cause if no enthusiasm is often far less pronounced well you know it needs to be said that the arab states which took in the palace in refugees of the the massive exodus of one thousand nine hundred did a very generous thing they are not often appreciated or saying to that however over time. it is very clear that there has been a collective failure on the part of the arab world to do anything about resolving the issue of the return of these refugees that is after all the the heart of the israeli palestinian problem absolutely and i think what is important here is not to discount the policies of israel itself which are often recognized internationally as being in breach of international law as well as the policies of the united states that still plays a v

back to verse 3. exodus 19 verse 3. now remember the setting. israel has just come out of egypt. they've come through the red sea, they're gathered at mount sinai. and moses has now gone up unto god. okay, verse 3 of exodus 19, "and moses went up unto god and the lord called unto him out of the mountain saying, 'thus shalt thou say to the house of jacob, thus shall you tell the children of israel.'" now here it comes. "you have seen what i did to the egyptians." that is, drowned them in the red sea. "and how i bear you (the nation of israel) on eagle's wings and brought you to myself." that is, out here into the sinai desert. "now therefore (here comes the opportunity)...now therefore, if (and it's positional, it depends on what israel does)...if you will obey my voice indeed and keep my covenant (this covenant of law that will be coming in the next chapter. if israel will be obedient to that) then you shall be a peculiar treasure (something of intrinsic value) unto me above all people for all the earth is mine." god's sovereign. if he wants to make one nation superceding all th

nation of israel. we aren't dealing with gentiles per se except as israel will be the vehicle. all right, then verse 4, "thou shalt be no more termed forsaken, neither shall thy land (see the pronoun -israel's land) neither shall thy land any more be termed desolate but thou shalt be called hephzibah and thy land beulah." and here's the translation of those two terms. hephzibah means 'one in whom i delight' and beulah meant 'married.' and so here we have those two. all right, now if we can go back to verse 1, "for zion's sake." now again you know i always sort of put the onus on hymn writers, how they have totally disturbed our thinking on a lot of things. you sing the old hymn 'marching to zion.' and you get the idea that zion is what? heaven. well zion is not heaven. zion is jerusalem. david's throne was on mt. zion. hopefully we'll be there in a few weeks and we're going to be on mt. zion visiting david's tomb and so forth. and it was in jerusalem -not heaven. so always remember that -that jerusalem and zion are synonymous. so for the sake of jerusalem "i will not hold my peace,

do the heathen (the non-jew)...why do they rage and the people (israel) imagine a vain thing. the kings of the earth (that was in that case, rome) set themselves and the rulers (that is of israel) take counsel together." and you know how they did, even as we reflect back on 'the movie.' "and they rejected the anointed saying (verse 3,) let us break their bands asunder and cast away their cords." or god's leadership. they didn't want it. and then verse 4. god's response from heaven was that he sat and laughed a laugh of derision. then reading on in verse 4. "the lord shall have them (that is the human race, jew and gentile)...he will have them in derision." now verse 5, after they've rejected the messiah and they've put him to death this is the next step in the old testament prophetic program. "then (the next event)...then shall he speak unto them (jew and gentile) in his (what?) wrath." now that's the exact opposite from grace. so what are we talking about? well we're talking about that seven years of tribulation which was to follow. now we've got my timeline back up here and here

israel captured the sinai peninsula from egypt and the golan heights from syria and although these read the army didn't announce the west bank from true. it started to occupy the area and up to decades of fighting israel's share of the land has grown from three percent to almost eighty and israel's plans to more settlements may derail the peace talks as a policy of reports. today for the first time in three years israelis and palestinians will be resuming direct talks in jerusalem this follows preparatory talks that will hold a fortnight ago in washington but both sides are skeptical and no one is expecting a breakthrough the problem is that these talks are resuming against the backdrop of an announcement by israel that it is expanding its system and the european union has warned that this is the palestinians also warning that this will cause the negotiations to collapse before they even begin they accuse the israeli government of trying to sabotage these talks and they also complain that current israeli settlement growth is at president of levels israel has rejected this criticism

along with israel of course bomb iran. but. america's single justification repeated again and again in chinese whispers is that deliberately full flight quotes in fact iran's president called the court the all to pause of jerusalem israel's location of the u.n. rules illegal to face quote regime change exactly what the u.s. calls for throughout the world all to. russian rouge the you brought before truth to public attention thanks for joining us you call this the room of the thing tree why is the difference key if you speaking of sort of like a velvet revolution of some kind. clearly not threatening to attack anybody it's very tragic and ironic that the iranian population is certainly very pro western and very eager to to be a part of the international community. very pro-american. yet at the same time there's really wanted one way that you could screw that up and that is to. to attack that country because it's a very nationalistic country and despite the unpopularity of the regime in power to moment and no one would take kindly to any kind of an attack splitting the oil rich muslim

the state of israel and they'll pretty much go along with whatever leader is in power they thought you know the. you know the the the ruler of the day was a. but by him i wouldn't be surprised to see them sort of flip flop here in the coming days depending on how things go but just one more thing if you don't mind about the violence and i think you know violence on all sides should be condemned but i think we would be naive if we acted surprised that after beating these protesters into submission for six weeks with several massacres and killing hundreds of people we would be naïve i think that you know if we thought that at least a small minority from amongst those protestors wouldn't turn to violence. that's what we're seeing now in the streets and i think it's very it's tragic some of my comedy in that case in that case i mean there's no disagreement there's no disagreement on my part here but who's going to be held responsible than for the deaths that have happened and that those that continue to happen. well i mean to me the primary responsibility responsibility lies with this

strong voice against israel and america. controlling a good supply of the world's oil and perhaps if things keep regressing or regress in the way that they have been, the nuclear armed. i forget if iran wants to join the club. so this is what you have, and this is what you're looking at. that is why the muslim brotherhood was founded in their essence to revive this caliphate. it was a greek tragedy far and wide in 1924 not to get to in the weeds, but you need to know it's a bad thing and that's the bottom line. from the beginning i have interviewed his grandson and the apples are fall far from the tree. it is called a history of violence is stuck to the beginning, imploring the followers to sacrifice their lives. nothing is higher, nothing is greater than martyrdom. he ingrained this into the consciousness of his followers and started out with severn several people in the back room someplace in egypt so that it's been 20 years the most powerful and organized force in egypt. and the most radical from the beginning. you need to understand caliphate, absolutely. another vanguard and bed

egypt is threatening to affect neighboring israel one of the leading protest movements called tom rod is already urging the egyptian government to cancel peace accords with israel signed more than thirty years ago let's bring in your i'm asking here in jerusalem the former israeli diplomat and the u.s. and an expert on the middle east thank you so much mr ettinger for joining us here on r.t. well the campaign to abolish the peace treaty that exists between the two countries is getting momentum and in fact has already gathered three hundred thousand signatures so do you think there is a danger of that actually happening and if so what would be the implications. well certainly the recent events in the middle east as a whole in egypt in particular shed light on the very tenuous very provisional nature of any agreement in the middle east way there are among muslims among the arabs and certainly a bit when the arabs or the muslims on one hand and what they call the infidel the infidel christian or the inn for the jews and therefore any agreement signed by israel should be regarded forty da

israel in 1967 and has been an occupied territory ever since. >> when i was in gaza david attended an israeli right wing rally in jerusalem. a large movement of religious israelis believe that rather than returning this land, it should be annexed by the state of israel. these people, called settlers, were creating villages in the occupied territories in order to create this reality. the rally was one of many demonstrations held by the settlers to convince the israeli government not to withdraw from the occupied territory. >> you have not seen an earthquake. >> the devastation of an earthquake. all you have to do is go to -- >> the water here is salty. so the government set up desalination plabts. they cannot just get pressure water. looks like somebody's handy candy. in fact, it's their daily routine. there are hundreds of thousands of people who don't want to get out of gaza. they want to keep them in gaza. and the palestinians is not something they want to relate to. i'm sorry i can't be with you there, but i don't know where the fate of god will be decided, here in the streets or i

treaty with the zionist entity, not israel, the zionist entity. even the most moderate muslim brotherhood talking heads call it the zionist entity. they say all the right things, and if you are a naive western leader, western opinion maker or journalist and sit down with these guys and really want to like them, he seemed so reasonable, maybe we can use him as a counterweight in a really bad guy. we can use the brotherhood. there aren't glowing anyone up debt. their palestinian wing is how maas' itself identifies itself as the palestinian wing of the muslim brotherhood. they're just killing jews so that we don't have to worry about it even though they have also kill american citizens. our leaders see the broader than say we can work with these guys. they say all the right things. this is a disastrous policy in so many ways. it has got us in how such hot water, especially in egypt. here is what you need to remember and why every american watching right down these to know about the muslim brotherhood. without the birth in egypt in 1928 there would be no war and terror. as a matte

its nuclear ambition with a mano the director general of international atomic energy agency israel is the one state most intensively concerned with see it on its nuclear which events saying the bomb weighs already what they need on its reach but in reality does iran want to bomb and how close to a bomb does it stand let's gauge how concerned its to international community right now. nuclear iran what stands behind it a dozen nuclear research and development facilities so most into inspections but crucially not all doesn't run harbor secret ambitions facilities the world has yet to see some claim iran does. the implants are presented as peaceful but without access to iran's nuclear backyard how can the world be sure global nuclear suspicion is further fueled by missile tests putting delivery power to terrans hands bush last goes to. how close is it to the bomb in two thousand and ten the u.n. nuclear watchdog declared for the first time there was evidence of iran's drive towards nuclear weapons iran's enrichment is already up to. twenty percent enough for a peaceful. eighty percent gre

palestinian refugee agency, jeremy, president and founder of political home for pro israel pro peace americans. an msnbc contributor and foreign policy analyst for newsweek and managing director of the washington institute and former senior director for middle east affairs at the national security council. thank you all for joining me. i want to start with you. how important is it this happens now under this secretary of state and this president? >> the urgency is real. if they don't achieve peace now, the spiraling is real. palestinian authority likely could collapse. israelis would have to go back in and assume full civil and military control of the west bank, violence would erupt. in the context of the region you described, violence there sets off sparks around the whole region, so this an incredibly important moment and incredibly high stakes decision by the administration to go for it at this moment. >> it's not entirely unheard of for a second term american president to put middle east peace talks on the agenda. in their case seems to be as much the president certainly but real

two point three for afghanistan and the closest ally to the us israel receives more than three billion dollars in aid every year but some of the funding to other foreign militaries might surprise you if the opiah takes in a half a billion of us taxpayer dollars every year in exchange for the ability to launch drones from the country but what about honduras which rakes in thirty million dollars specifically to fund a police force that acts more like a death squad and all this propping up of foreign governments militaries doesn't even include the heavy cost of maintaining the us empire's nine hundred military bases worldwide just think about these numbers the next time you hear the media or the government reporting at the idea of helping this country's distressed local economies because a mere fraction of the money that the us has wandered in iraq and afghanistan could have turned detroit into the by so the excuse that the government can't help detroit continues to funnel billions of dollars and other countries doesn't quite add up you see the people that create the wealth in thi

israel. what happens then? will israel feel restrained this time the way they did in the gulf war? or will israel respond in not just a proportional fashion but an overwhelming fashion to now obliterate as much of iran's military capacity if iran gets involved? there's a lot of unknowns about this. eisenhower said that when the violence begins, you can throw out all your plans. but you certainly have to think about before you begin offensive actions what the possible ramifications are if this spins out of control. >> i just want to be precise, senator. are you leaving open the possibility, albeit remotely, that perhaps the rebels were responsible for this chemical gas attack as opposed to the regime of president bashar al assad? >> i've seen no evidence on either side. i have seen news reports that says the rebels may well have access to chemical weapons. i have seen no evidence from our intelligence committee -- that's the other thing about this. should we go to war without the president coming before a joint session of congress, presenting the case and showing the intelligence?
