prime minister netanyahu is responding to this i think principally politically because his problem is not on the left in israel, his problem is being challenged from the right. he feels he's susceptible to a charge that he weakened u.s./israeli relations. he's trying to reach out to the incoming trump administration on the one hand and he's trying to rally the troops to show that he's the defender of the status quo in israel which is quite frankly where the center of the israeli public is. >> they have cut ties with multiple nations, not the united states, which has been the target of so much of the anger that we have heard recently. for the second day those officials claiming to have proof that the u.s. actually directed this u.n. vote. they say they're not going to reveal this publicly, at least not yet. they're going to give it to the trump administration to figure out what to do with it. there's a lot of talk about that. do you think any of this is significant when it comes to actions that need to be taken
