in diploam ausall the time. we did this time. we are very receptive and very attentive to the wishes and words of secretary clinton. we cooperated with the egyptian president and we gave peace a chance. we also are doing all we can to make the life of our palestinian neighbors better, both in quality and in the standard of living in the west bank. i think that the one thing that the hamas should watch and especially the people in gaza who are held hostage in this world s largest prison by hamas should watch the way their brethren in the west bank live in peace and safety and security and in prosperity. i think most palestinians really want that. at the same time, because hamas is indeed a proxy of iran, we re not taking our eyes off the ball, neither of hamas, nor of iran. and in a way, what you saw over
thankfully. well an exclusive fox news sunday interview republican senator john mccain weighing in on the developing situation in egypt. last week the president gaye praise for helping broker the cease fire between israel and hamas. now he is being condemned as officials give absolute power to morsi. we thank mr. morsi who probi brokered a cease fire which is incredibly fragile. this is not what the american taxpayers expect. our dollars will be directly related to the progress toward democracy which you promised the people of egypt when your party had a newly elected president. fox news sunday chris wallace. good morning, chris. what does the senate think
since hosni mubarak was overthrown. eric: with the marches going into next week and the judeficiency and the stock mark, is the president saying it s temporary and morsi will back down? reporter: right now, he s saying he is not going to back down. he says he has no intention of back down. he has thrown down the gauntlet. both sides appear to be digging in. if the president does not give nwe should see conflict, and the military could step in here to restore order, if this is allowed to continue here. eric: david, seems a troubling week ahead in egypt. live in cairo. good to see you. the fragile cease-fire between israel and hamas seems to be holding, with both sides declaring victory. the threat of war with iran still looms. what lessons did israel learn from the latest conflict? what happens if the truth falls
west and the united states for 30 years, you would get democracy in egypt, i think got a very. very ominous signal yesterday by the acts of president morsi. the people of egypt who went to tahrir square against mubarak, tathey didn t go because of the israeli/palestinian conflict. they went because they wanted freedom, education and jobs now it seems that that has been taken away from them. listen, we are definitely pardon me. there is a time delay there. i am going to thank you, ambassador for your expertese, i am sure we will be talking to you quite a bit in the days and weeks and months to come. thank you very much, sir. thank you. let me be very clear. i have great respect for senator mccain and his service to our country. i always have and i always will.
what we saw over the last few days in that conflict was really maybe just a preview of what is to come between israel and iran because everything that hamas did and all the arms they had and all the instructions they got, actually came from tehran. tehran at the end of the day is the big losener this battle because it did not succeed to bring israel down. its proxy was very badly damaged. its head was cut off. and in fact, the truce was broken by three country who is have taken over the leadership of the middle-east, of the region, away from iran who, wanted it and that s egypt, turkey and qatar. so iran is the big loser and i wouldn t be surprised that they would try and start something again. but i hope very much that they learned their lesson because the blows that hamas suffered were very, very severe. and we are on the verge of a
