lifting of economic sanctions. u.s. secretary of defense ash carter arrived in israel sunday to meet with the country's leadership. prime minister benjamin netanyahu is one of the most vocal critics of the deal. received negatively by a broad spectrum of israelis from varied political backgrounds. ari shavit is a columnist for harretz, wrote "five reasons to worry about the iran deal," also the author of "my promise land, the trump and triumph of israel," a highly regarded book, out in paper backand will soon be an hbo documentary. pleasure to have you at the table, ari shavit. >> pleased to be with you charlie. >> rose: you have in your hands what? >> the text that will transform the middle east, i think will shape the next decade and possibly the 21st century. >> rose: the 21st century. i think that this is the most important, dramatic document i've read in recent years and probably the most important document -- international document of recent decades. >> rose: why do you say that? look, a nuclear iran, i felt for a long time, is not an israel issue. that's where i disagree with

criticism from israel and many say they're deeply concerned. mitch mcconnell said that hearings will start soon. tomorrow the president is scheduled to visit a federal prison and it's possible that the president will get a question or two about the 2016 presidential campaign and perhaps whether he would like to see his vice president joe biden enter the democratic presidential race. the presidential news conference is scheduled to start in just a few minutes. as we wait michael shure joins us live from the white sox. michael, the president faces the biggest political fight in terms of the foreign policy, what is the strategy of the news conference today? >> i think the strategy is taking the case for this deal to the american people. he's taking it to the iranians. he's taken it to the p5+1. he has taken it to the gulf states. he spoke with netanyahu and king salman of the saudi arabia. he's talking about why he thinks it's the right thing at this time and he's waiting for a little bit of feedback from him. we've heard everything from the congress. we've heard everything from the his

israeli government as well is of course against it. and crucially, the pro-israel lobby -- that includes the very powerful aipac lobby with a lot of influence in congress. democrats largely will stay on the side of president obama. what republicans need is a two thirds majority in the u.s. congress. they need about a dozen democrats to come on their side to override the presidential veto that has already been threatened by the u.s. president. that is very difficult to do. chances are this deal will go through. but it might be an ugly situation, because the presidential veto against a vote in congress is never a pretty thing to use. laura: you mentioned israel's opposition to the deal. saudi arabia is also against it. these are the u.s.'s top allies in the middle east. philip: well, the relationships with those two countries certainly haven't improved overnight. this is a president who knows who he needs to call now. we are told by the white house he will be calling the 70 king salman at some point today -- the saudi king salman sometime today. we haven't gotten the readout yet from the w

israel see iran as an ongoing threat. while prime minister netenyahu is unlikely to ever endorse this deal it is incumbent on the united states to deepen our cooperation with israel and better understand the concerns of the israelis. it's also critical that our partners and allies know the united states will not abandon the region in the wake of this agreement. the may 2015 joint statement following the u.s. and gulf cooperation council meetings at camp david provided a road map. it also makes clear the department of defense will be at the forefront of these efforts. critics of the agreement point to flaws related to iran's ballistic missile capability. the camp david joint statement outlines our commitment to the gcc and improving inner operability in defense. the joint statement indicates we will be increasing our training and exercise arrangements with gcc operations developments. these are important efforts that i look forward to today. these negotiations focus on denies iran a pathway to a nuclear weapon. as it as repeated demonstrated a force that supports terror and seeks to im
