Gladly wore the mantle of peace not one of them were facemask im often berlin this is the day. The biggest optimists were shocked when they heard about this transaction google doesnt realize the literal use enjoying the greatest. Triumph over its history after all of these years david really gets tired of war. Has suffered far too long we have many countries any originate in your part of the world that will be very quickly signing up also but now we can do it even with more days this could really lead to peace real peace in the middle east for the 1st. Also coming up a german chancellor Angela Merkel today marked 70 years of the Central Council of jews in this country she added 7 decades since the shoah antisemitism remains it is the new sun its a disgrace and a deep shame for me how racism and antisemitism are expressed in our country in this day and age. To our viewers on p. B. S. In the United States and all the around the world welcome we begin the day with an agreement that will bring a greater sense of normality to the middle east its promise of peace in the region that is yet to be proven today at the white house the United Arab Emirates bahrain and israel signed an agreement to normalize relations it marks a major stride in improving commercial cultural and education times among the countries but referring to the agreement as a peace deal would be a mischaracterization relations between israel the u. A. E. And bahrain have not been hostile u. S. President trump referred to the u. A. E. Today as a great warring nation but they have not been at war with israel and todays agreement provided an opportunity for israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to return a favor to President Trump in the run up to the last 2 israeli elections trump announced major u. S. Policy changes all positive for netanyahu now with the u. S. Election just weeks away and with trump trailing in the polls netanyahu has paid a visit to washington to present donald trump as a friend to israel and to peace here is the u. S. President. Were here this afternoon to change the course of history after decades of division and conflict we mark the dawn of a new middle east thanks to the great courage of the leaders of these 3 countries we take a major stride toward a future in which people of all faiths and backgrounds live together in peace and prosperity. In his you know his entire history there previously been only 2 such agreements now we have achieved 2 in a single month and there are more to follow. Our i want to bring in now read by Mark Schneider he was at the signing ceremony at the white house rabbi schneier is known as the rabbi and to the muslim world hes a special advisor to keeping him on been in south of bahrain meissner he joins me on the phone tonight its welcome back to the day rabbi what does todays what does todays signing ceremony what does it change in the middle east oh i think its an extraordinary transformation because unlike have entire Peace Agreement too little its all about opportunity particularly in the realm of economics. This information how many gulf leaders have expressed to me. These past few years that with our resources and wealth and israel trained closer and for solving that you gather we could develop the most powerful economic reaching in the world so i believe economics you know is a very strong engine thats driving this often called the 19 need to be a Regional Response the controversy over israel possibly and in the west bank and the marauding them behind me and sir much progress today chief a solution here and of course how they have to pencil a challenge and threat the ongoing threat coming from iran and the allies but i do believe the gulf states are looking to see is prone to step in and to become in the center and protector im sure there are a whole series of speech here value on it and we celebrate that yes when you and i spoke last month you said that these agreements or even 3 for the palestinians and that they mean that there will be discussions about a 2 state solution there were no palestinian representatives at the white house today. Oh its no different than the way the cousens wiped out at the conference and boss crane last year i have to teach to prosperity conference there are those of us including myself who believe that the road to needs really the same reconciliation must still through economics and the gulf states today acknowledge they have skin in the game theyre going to have to bring a sense of Economic Opportunities and common on hope to the Palestinian People that can really be the engine back to bring about this kind of reconciliation israel with this agreement has normalize ties was 2 arab countries that do not want to answer claims about shimon Rights Violations within their own borders let me ask you as a man of faith what did the jewish state sacrifice in order to win or to reach new states have normal relations with the u. A. E. And bahrain i dont think they must all sacrifice any time you know ive been in the region now for more than 12 years and i have seen. That amount of improvements on the human rights front in terms of how the different rulers here are conducting themselves in terms of their own populations so i think its shift yelling journey thats going to continue and grow and develop to the Promised Land of a. Genuine aust and that the monster seen in that region. Well as that Development Takes place im sure we will be talking with you again we hope so read by marc shiner joining us tonight from washington d. C. Rabbi thank you my pleasure thank you israeli relations with bahrain and the u. A. E. Are already good some observers say todays agreement is a defacto confirmation of what has been happening for years is there more to the deal in the eyes of israelis our jerusalem correspondent tanya kramer takes a look in this report. The 1st commercial flight from tel aviv to abu dhabi a long isolation period for israel and the region has ended until now it only has signed peace treaties with egypt and jordan in August Israel normalize ties with the United Arab Emirates the having followed a month later brokered by the u. S. It cygnus its change of alliances in the region for us it creates a much stronger sunnis really alliance against iran against the shiite axis which is very important if we look at american elections in november when we have a democratic candidate that declares that they want to go back to the Previous Nuclear deal with iran. Such an alliance of israeli and sunni nations in the middle east is extremely important what this doesnt solve this is verse conflict with the palestinians the un has insisted that it was suspends its plans to annex parts of the occupied west bank at least temporarily but the deal breaks with the public position of countries to refrain from normalizing relations with israel until it ends its occupation of the millions of palestinians in tel aviv the mood among israelis is mixed as people prepare for a nationwide lockdown so your own its excellent i opened a school for arabic i did it to promote peace and now i think it is more important than whether there should the quitely be a rachet i think there is damage its only for political interests for bibi for trump and also the u. A. E. Because of arms and good relations with the us they dont really care about us making it a family bank credit should tell you quote unquote the bad about it i think its more needed to deal with many problems we have here that have to do with a lockdown. And more political problems the country is very unstable and theres a lot to take care of before dealing with external issues or later in shame because some. In the agreements a seen as a huge achievement for a Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu but as he faces a corruption trial and is under fire for his poor handling of the pandemic there are also red piece of good news. Are evil for a different perspective the view from europe and like to pull in christiane hundreds hes the senior middle east expert and germanys beryls been sound asian mr hollande is going to have you on the day at the white house today it was all about israel the u. A. E. Bahrain and the United States as the broker noticeably absent where the palestinians what about the europeans. The europeans are not in this deal making policy of trump is every the middle east trump has a totally different strategic approach to change new trends in the middle east its without institutions like the e. U. It says it ignores un resolutions or International Agreements or even the quartet which is the mediation make hundreds of these id Palestinian Conflict with a footnote brant kerry and foreign minister was present that was the footnote but because we were not ok that was the european there in the room what do you make of claims that these deals. Motivated by fears of iran in that the u. S. Has torpedoed the Iran Nuclear Deal which the e. U. Has tried to save so todays agreement it almost comes at the expense of europe. Look germany germany has the e. U. Presidency and in germany there are 3 issues this new trends of the middle east on the table the one is the German Government is relieved that the hold of an extension of and its in characterised by the government has been achieved they hope that with the u. A. E. A special that there will be a drive towards Israeli Palestinian understanding there is a window of opportunity what is told here in berlin on the other hand the frequency in europe is that in the forthcoming running election in the u. S. That. Confrontation could be to further escalation already next monday there is again a fight on the United States United Nations Security Council on the iranian issue so that is still an issue of concern is it likely that other countries are going to follow what weve seen today have in saudi arabia saying tonight that it is sticking by the plan that the arab world that 1st there has to be a resolution to the palestinian israeli problem before any other deals can be made. There is a paradigm shift since the Arab Peace Initiative from 200002 which said all 22. 00 arab states to wait for palestinian state before were normalizing with israel this is now changing more arab countries would like to go into more strong relations with the us and with israel and this is mainly driven by strong economic and technological. Wishes you know that especially the countries in the gulf once one. Or. Very late. Country they see their economic links much more with the u. S. And with israel in order to get their country forward you know the states in in the gulf region they will have they can be less on oil exporting to future they need to look for new business and Employment Opportunities and this has these new Political Trends that is with more cooperation with innovative countries like israel and the u. S. Let me ask you about todays developments maybe through the eyes of the german chancellor Angela Merkel she has said that israels security is a central tenet of german policy now when you hear that i would assume that berlin must be pleased by the developments today because these developments are helping destabilize israel and its security. Gemini and and europe have in all recent years always trying to push more cooperation between israel and its arab neighbors and trying to get the palestinian issue scholes. This always goes together and and they are and who also share the same concerns about the uranium threat to where its towards israel and arab countries in the region the approach is different the american approach the iranian threat is maximum pressure and said you know when we are when i am reelected iran will come and make a deal with me in 30 days the europeans and others at the United Nations Security Council think it has to go within me with an agreement and. By. Indiana in order to get iraq back into. A back into less escalation in the region im going to have a minute here when i ask you what happens next year when the german chancellor steps down when when uncle americal is no longer in charge what happens to europe or germany in europes of support for israel any change. No there is no change in the that you know all governments. By the social democrats or by greens or by our or by conservative parties if there is a broad understanding about the security of israel. And peace and development in the middle east i even have that there would be more engagement also driven by germany and france to foster Modernization Development in the mediterranean and in the southern neighborhood and to read to get a conflict in the region souls all right christiane hunted with germanys bevels mint validation mr holmes we appreciate your time in your insights tonight thank you its a pleasure talking to you. They were sobering a warming yet not surprising words today german chancellor Angela Merkel said that many jews living in germany today do not feel safe and she cautioned that antisemitism in germany has never disappear merkel spoke today at a ceremony marking the 70th anniversary of the Central Council of jews in germany the organization was created in the wake of the holocaust and has been a driving force in revitalizing jewish life and culture here injure. A day of remembrance 70 years since the founding of the Central Council of jews in germany which since then has promoted the revival of jewish communities and culture in the country today theyre going to zation represents the interests of more than 100000 members across the country. A role that was celebrated by german chancellor Angela Merkel who expressed her admiration for the strength of the jews who stayed in germany after the atrocities committed by the nazi regime but the chancellor also warned about the rising threat of antisemitism in the country it is then its a disgrace and a deep shame for me how racism and anti semitism are expressed in our country in this day and age it is true that racism and anti semitism never disappeared but for some time now they have been more visible and uninhibited. With no. Insults threats or conspiracy theories are openly directed against jewish citizens. Social media is literally losing expressions of hatred and harassment. We must never remain silent on this months. Last years attack on a synagogue in the city of hala where right wing extremists set out to commit a massacre made the threat faced by jews in germany even clear. Violent anti semitic crimes have grown by 20 percent over the last 2 decades perpetrators are mostly right wing extremists. This by this the president of the Central Council of jews said his community was ready to place its trust in germany but he added that this trust must not be betrayed. Your trust is valuable as ever for germanys Jewish Community id like to pull in a man who can speak to this with authority and credibility rabbi daniel alter became one of the 1st german trained rabbis following the show he was also the antisemitism commissioner of berlins Jewish Community for 3 years by alter welcome to the day its good to have you with us tonight 70 years of the Central Council of jews in germany 7 decades and the german chancellor says that fear among jews and antisemitism in society have not disappeared is there any way to to take this into spin it in a positive light. At the 1st glance not really that it depends on what kind of dynamic rebuild deal with in the German Society. Very important to have time from merkel as our friend and being supportive of us. If we want any positive solution of the. Antisemitic crisis we have in germany then we need to fool support of the last majority of the German Society and currently do not at. The head of the Central Council of jews in germany says that the Jewish Community is syncing a growing feeling of and he says do you think he could have or he should have chosen stronger words to describe the situation. No i think. Its important to stay on common that and balance theres no point in choosing big and strong words i mean political eckel on this critical it aware of the effect that we are dealing with a number wise percentage wise concerning antisemitism with a huge and substantial problem and that im im not very happy with the idea of using big and Strong Language we need to work on that but we need to keep calm and we need to find proper ways to express ourselves and this doesnt and he and he and he even loud and forward sounding paroles the chancellor spoke of shame with the rise of antisemitism in the country is germanys Political Leadership is it doing enough to fight this entice images. I wish i could say foolhardy yes but. Im not overly happy with some of the developments to give you an example already in the south and trial of that was a huge inquiry about the situation about the numbers and percentages of antisemitism how far spread it is in society and that the end of the inquiry there where also the experts also gave several recommendations how the problem could be tackled one of the recommendations was that dealing with antisemitism should be a part of what teachers experience in their own education and their training to become a teacher now that has not been implemented implemented to my extent of knowledge in any german state yet he said that that issue like the education of the teacher is not a federal issue its. The various germans and none of the states to my extent of knowledge has implemented that to up to today and thats 8 years ago thats 8 and thats last years and the states where our governor by basically all parties which are present in the in the stock so. I see a lack of. A lack of. Detriment nation on the political side i want to answer something about your own personal story you were the victim of an antisemitic attack here in berlin 8 years ago. How has that incident how was it shaped the way you live and as a jewish person in germany. In my specific case that the result was that. d that i started to deal with these issues that i started to move myself in combat ing antisemitism that i also have the reaction on that and what myself more and interface style and. Basically i said i want to combat that i want to fight that but im not a soldier and i can im not a street fighting man or anything like that my way to fight goes through common occasion education discussion going to school so i did that a lot and. Yeah what that does with the significant change i took an active combat ing antisemitism as you were due to what i experienced i wasnt traumatized or else and my children were not traumatized partly because i got a huge support from the wider German Society which also played an Important Role in being able to do that probably did it make you have a stronger conviction in your faith no. I bought. It it gave me a strong recovery in the mississippi to fight through take up a political fight to get standard of jews but there was no i dont know how i could put that probably but they had no spiritual impact on let me put it this way. Rabbi daniel alterable i its been very very enlightening talking with you we appreciate you being so honest with us tonight thank you for your time thank you for having good buy.

News live from berlin tonight an historic agreement signed at the white house a big strong idea towards normalizing relations in the middle east president has hosted israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Foreign Ministers of bahrain and the United Arab Emirates says they agreed to establish diplomatic talks also coming up european leaders visit greece as the migrant crisis goes from bad to worse germany has agreed to take in more than 15000. 00 refugees but. Athens wants other European Countries to go soon. By brant golf its good to have you with us the United Arab Emirates and bahrain have signed agreements to normalize relations with israel its the 1st major agreement of this kind between arab countries and israel since jordan and egypt signed peace treaties a quarter of a century ago u. S. President hosted the white house ceremony placing himself in the role of International Peacemaker just in time ahead of us elections in november the decision by the United Arab Emirates and bahrain to normalize ties with these rail breaks with decades of consensus within the arab world at peace deal with the palestinians had long been up held as a prerequisite for establishing relations with the jewish state but trump and on yahoo praised the deal as groundbreaking. Were here this afternoon to change the course of history after decades of division and conflict we mark the dawn of a new middle east thanks to the great courage of the leaders of these 3 countries we take a major stride toward a future in which people of all face and backgrounds live together in peace and prosperity i am grateful to you President Trump for your decisive leadership you have unequivocal he stood by israel start you have boldly confronted the tyrants of her own you proposed a realistic vision for peace between israel and the palestinians and you have successfully brokered this store of peace that we are signing to do. But palestinians say there can be no resolution to the core conflict analysts say are involved and bahrains foreign minister made it clear it was too early to celebrate a just comprehensive and youre going to state solution to the palestinian israeli conflict will be the foundation that would draw such peace. Demonstrators rallied in the occupied west bank and in the Gaza Strip Palestinians see the deal as a political move by the u. S. And israel to cut them off from their traditional allies and erode Regional Support for a palestinian state trump said he expects other arab states will normalize relations with israel he says that would pressure the palestinians into reaching a peace deal with these riled. It was the israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaking in washington lets take the story now to washington our correspondent at the sun is standing by good evening to you the agreements they have been signed just how historic is all of this how much peace are we talking about here. Yeah i mean certainly historic to see these 4 men sitting together and signing those documents israel signed a document with the u. A. E. And signed another with bahrain and the Abraham Accords have been signed by all 4 parties involved including the United States as the broker we dont actually know all the details of whats included in these documents they are keeping it under wraps for the most part even after the signing and though it is symbolic and important we have to remember that the United Arab Emirates and boxing already had relations with israel in the shadows for years and experts say this deal to normalize is essentially about iran that you the u. A. E. Bahrain and israel see iran as a threat in the region and they want to strengthen alliances amongst themselves to fend off that threat that these 3 countries also see a further waning of influence american influence especially if trump is reelected in november so while the economics certainly played a part there are geopolitical factors as well or. Here. While trying to netanyahu are hoping for this and promising this that there will be a domino effect throughout the arab world trump said earlier today that a handful of other nations are deep into talks already we dont know which countries he was referring to but certainly all eyes right now on saudi Arabia Riyadh had cautiously welcomed this deal but stayed mostly silent but observers will point out that bahrain would certainly not have moved ahead with without the green light from the kingdom and we have heard from the saudi king not today but in recent times that he has indicated that there will be no normalization without solving the palestinian question which is long been the arab position but as we see today that stance can change and we have to remember there were palestinian representatives at the signing today at the one ago. On the story forwards in washington abbi thank you lets take this story israel or correspondent tom degree murder she is standing by good evening to you telling you lets start with the news thats coming in of rockets being fired from gaza israel what more do we know. The sirens went off actually during the signing ceremony right at the time in washington and the police and the military confirmed the 2 rockets were fired from gaza into israel 2 at the Southern City of. And. One of them was intercepted by the iron dome Missile Defense system and one and 2 people were injured from truck suffered from shock. This deal how was it being viewed by the palestinians. Well i think we heard already from palestinian officials at the time and norman ization agreements were announced. They said its a betrayal some called it a sellout and i talked to a lot of palestinians here in the past weeks or so theres a range of reactions to that some you know were initially very angry but also not surprised because those ties where known but they were mostly behind the scenes. There was also a sense of disappointment and abandonment also reflected in some polls saying those countries abandon the palestinian cause at the same time theres also disappointment at their own leadership in ramallah and in gaza its a divided leadership that it that it come to this that its another problem with the trial. That there is no solution in sight at the same time also have to say theres a sense that there might be a shift in the region and up until now actually palestinians could actually count at least on the pop make he stated position by the arab countries that there would be no normalization with israel until israel and military occupation over palestinians and of course theres also concern that other countries might follow and that was even more so after the arab league last week failed to come together on a resolution that was brought in by the palestinians certainly beginning to look like a paradigm shift in the middle east and not to the advantage of the palestinians. Thank you. Greece has called on the European Union to help deal with the migrant crisis unfolding on its eastern oil and last week a fire unless its destroyed europes largest refugee camp today European Union Council President Charles Michel also appealed to e. U. Nations to step up their response to the crisis on tuesday germany said that it would take in more than 1500. 00 migrants from greece. As he walked away from a temporary migrant camp on the greek island of lesbos European Union Council President a shild michel made it clear he was not walking away from the problem. Difficult very complex situation. On behalf of the European Union i would want to see that i refused. All this migration challenge this is a common european challenge by the end of the month the apparent commissioning things to put a new concrete proposal from the 3rd world those proposals are expected to include tougher border policing policies and renewed efforts to resettle migrants across the European Union are in the day both michelle and the greek Prime Minister jointly appealed for more solidarity from the aid you. Athens want other Member States to help run the new refugee camps being built on greeces eastern islands. Meanwhile the Greek Economy has set up temporary accommodation for thousands of migrants displaced by the fires at the more a camp. Across the bay from these temporary camps many greek residents say they feel sorry for the migrants and i too would like to see more solidarity from the e. U. Then accounting this is not a proper solution there are 27 European Union states if they all took 400 people it wouldnt even show up because they have big countries if you. Country took in 400. 00 people the problem would be solved. But with the e. U. So fos drug dealing to find a unified approach to the my Current Crisis at its boat is a lasting solution could still be a long road ahead.
