yeah i think that the palestine papers prove without a doubt that really it's the palestinians i had no partner for peace the palestinians were more willing to go the lie all and nothing seemed good enough or as are all but land land land land that's what it comes down to the israelis don't care about peace they want as much territory as they can get and so you know what we've been seeing is the israelis dragging their feet and building settlements at the same time they're building facts on the ground so the more they have on the ground you know the less they have to give away and that seems to have been the strategy. you know what this shows is that the it's very interesting i almost want to say that seems to me the leak must have come from the p.a. that appears trying to distance itself from these papers but really they will serve the p.a. and the outside international community because it makes the p.a. you know it runs the risk of making the pay look pathetic at home while sympathetic abroad and it's one more piece of evidence that israel is not really a partner in the peace proc

next recent leaks concerning palestinians really relations have cost a shadow on the so-called peace process. also his panel of guests will justify its position now alan dupont stein's credibility has been damaged also his debate crosstalk. and you can. still. welcome across an archive you know a little a huge embarrassment for a last historic opportunity the release of over sixteen hundred documents covering a decade of negotiations between the israelis and palestinians show a pattern of deceit powerlessness and despair. and you can. discuss the meaning of these leaked documents i'm joined by omar badar in washington he's a political scientist and promotes human rights in miami we go to each eye flasher he is the host that israel national radio and director of cooma and in tel aviv we cross the my one mary she's a freelance journalist and writer and another member of our crosstalk team on the hunger all right folks cross talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want if i go to my in in israel in tel aviv i'm going to be very blunt here after reading these leaked d

maybe the fate of the palestinian people when it comes to international community but he said if i go to you in miami how do you reflect upon what my just said because it look you know we've always heard i'm going to merican so i grew up always being told that the powers these really have no real partner i mean these these documents certainly tell a completely different story how do you reflect upon the documents and what in our what our first guest had to say. well i think the documents definitely show that when israel demands to own its capital the people believe it and that even our challengers will say you're right this is your capital city and i think that israel should continue to say that about all its land the land that was given to it by the way of the alpha land that is our historical homeland the land that we were dispossessed from and therefore we just have to be strong and tell the truth which is this is our land and we should not give it away and i think the proves that the palestinians will back down if you just say the truth which is this that it's your right but if yo

palestinians are going to turn to the u.n. because that's the only possible option i'd say i think the peace process is dad i don't think that we're going to have. warlike some people have been saying. i don't see any other option certainly neither the israelis or the palestinians are ready to build a binational secular democratic state like i personally would like to see. so i think the only option now is for the international community to step in just like it did in one thousand nine hundred forty seven with the un vote that helped establish the state of israel i don't understand why the israelis keep saying that the only way we can find an agreement to make a palestinian state is through the peace process because that's not how israel was me there was no peace process here in one nine hundred forty seven that made israel the arab states did not agree to the un vote there is no you know the palestinians weren't consulted there was no agreement so why not go ahead and establish a palestinian state now when it's so clear that

we always go by the accuser the palestinian the army wants control they want no palestinian to go anywhere without a permit i can't you have to make a choice is the best way to hold on and we back you whatever you do. and i would but he is interested we have him in ok. i am and. they acknowledge this was his land and now they said we don't want you to work here today though because it's dangerous someone could come and shoot you. there's a good chance that we will win here and maybe it'll be easier to finish if there's no intention here in another day as it was. in the west bank israel has built a barrier a wall made out of fences and concrete it is part of israel's defense it protects settlements and it ties them closer to israel. the barrier all the wall is mainly built on occupied land in breach of international law according to the international court of justice. for the palestinians in the west bank the wall results in further land loss to israeli settlers. but there are israelis helping the palestinians to recessed the construction of the wall which we're doing here right now is tryi

state and moreover russia's already seen was about signs of palestinian. state being created and did that that was emphasized the by president mediator during his. press conference so it seems that the. president made me do it as an idea is just to give new impetus to the process which deal now has. unfortunately lost that steam was talking when it comes to the four parties involved with getting the middle east peace process back on track we're talking of course about the mideast peace the mideast peace call ted russia appears to be one of the only members really shouldering a lot of the weight here but tell me about this israel has left itself out of possible talks with the russian president citing an internal strike you think it was intentional and would undermine the peace process. well i don't want to make too much story or all of a that the strike of his or other diplomats which prevented president of from for a moment may can. i don't think this is a real thought because but what can isolate israel it stop. on. jewish settlements construction as i sa

resulted in the eviction of many palestinian families as the israelis understood that palestinian authority spokesman's were ready to relinquish territory now if indeed the palestinian leadership did suggest such concessions why would israel turn them down when there's been such an ongoing conflict here. well israel i said previously is clearly not interested in an equitable two state solution with the palestinian authority or with palestinians in general israel clearly is interested in maintaining a status quo which necessarily includes a permanent state of war both for israelis and palestinians. and the status quo features israel controlling the west bank territories through various means of occupation and the complete severing of the gaza strip from the west bank and so i believe that this is not shocking information but it does provide ultimate confirmation that this is the israeli tactic in terms of facts on the ground now with these and with these allegations being made here do you think that this could discredit the leadership in the eyes of the palestinians and possibly end up givin

that israel with its current leadership is ready to give palestinians their rights back. of course not we said this to the americans and the whole world we told them about what was happening during the talks what was happening on occupied territories that's why netanyahu uses the current government as an excuse saying he cannot make a decision under this government but he will be able to do that if you reforms the government removes lieberman and puts in the government somebody from the kadima party which has twice as many votes as lieberman supporters but he doesn't want that he uses it as an excuse to cover for all his actions we know this for sure but it doesn't mean that we think that he will never change his stance. governments change it has already happened before when we started the peace process and the us was serious about promoting it and established the madrid conference samir had the same stance netanyahu has now. so you are saying that in the current situation the p.l.o. has resistance on its agenda. and. all constitutional choices are possible and the consti
