World headquarters in new york, this is nbc nightly news. Reporting tonight, lester holt. Good evening on this very busy news night. We begin with a highstakes showdown that has left years of American Peace efforts in the middle east teetering on the brink. Even with votes still being counted Benjamin Netanyahu took to twitter tonight to declare himself the winner. If he prevails, the implications are enormous, because just before todays vote, netanyahu locked in a tight race publicly shut the door on a twostate peace solution, rejecting the idea of a palestinian state long a key pillar of american diplomacy in the region. We begin with our chief Foreign Affairs correspondent Andrea Mitchell in tel aviv. Reporter it was a dramatic finish to a frantic threemonth campaign, capped by Benjamin Netanyahus desperate lastminute appeal to his hardline base. In a rare election day appearance, the Prime Minister said, go out in masses to the ballots. Pleading with his supporters to offset what he called extremist israeli arab candidates. Late polls showed him losing ground. Netanyahu swerved farther right, pledging to prevent the creation of a palestinian state. Reversing decades of promises by israeli leaders to american president s, from carter to obama. And what netanyahu told me only last october. We need to have a vision of peace of two nation states who recognize one another. Israel is a nation state of the jewish people, and palestine is the nation state of the palestinian people. Reporter of course, there was that American Campaign stop. His controversial speech to congress. Netanyahu was right to worry. Tonight many voters told me they wanted a better economy and were ready for change. He stated there will be no palestinian state. Ten years ago they were talking about two states. And it didnt happen in the last ten years. So its not going to happen with netanyahu. Reporter why not netanyahu . Because i think he had his chance to do for the past few years. And he didnt do it himself, so i thought we needed a change. Reporter but in the end netanyahu got his voters to the polls. Its very important to make sure that the next government is going to be rightwing government. Reporter and as you can hear, here at netanyahu headquarters, this party is rocking. Theyre celebrating already. Even though as the votes are counted, it still may be a tie. He has more natural allies to form a coalition. This has profound implications that could mean the end of peace with the palestinians, the end of peace for president obama, and change the course of history in the middle east for years to come.

Now today, new questions about how well pathologists interpret them. An expert panel doublechecked the pathology results of 240 biopsies. Overwhelmingly, they agreed on the diagnosis of invasive Breast Cancer and those that were benign. But the misdiagnosis involved two types of abnormal but not yet invasive cancerous cells. Ductal canceroma in situ commonly called dcis and atypia. Why are they misdiagnosed . The main reason is that the person reading the actual slide is a human being, and there is some subjectivity when youre reading slides of biopsy samples. Reporter in this study, pathologist missed dcis in 13 of the cases. In atypia even worse. And overdiagnosed in 17 . Overdiagnosing may subject women to unnecessary surgical procedures, as well as to unnecessary treatment. The flip side of that is that the cases that are missed. These are women who are told that they dont have cancer and may not get the appropriate followup.
