when we come back, we ll get back to our top story. palestinian rockets intercepted near israel s secret desert nuclear site. i ll ask mark regev what s going on. that s coming up next. also, a u.s. ally furious over american espionage and what s more embarrassing, president obama apparently didn t even know about it. the house intelligence committee, mike rogers, he knows what s going on. he s standing by and we ll discuss with him. that s coming up later. kid: hey dad, who was that man?
people were saying to john kerry, why are you doing this? both in the israeli had given up on the peace process. so i think the administration ought to be commended for trying. unfortunately it didn t work out. thank you very much. we ll continue our conversation as well. just ahead, what, if anything, can the united states realistically do to stop the attacks, the bloodshed? what s going on? the stakes are high. so are the frustrations in the white house. moderate to severe crohn s disease is tough, but i ve managed. i got to be pretty good at managing my symptoms, except that managing my symptoms was all i was doing. when i finally told my doctor, he said my crohn s was not under control. he said humira is for adults like me who have tried other medications but still experience the symptoms of moderate to severe crohn s disease. and that in clinical studies,
in the interest of all parties to stop this escalation. do you believe that if hamas stops firing rockets the israeli will stop their air strikes? that s when i meant when i said we need for both sides to be committed. i don t think it s in israel s interest to have further escalation. it s not in their interest to gaza. this will just add fuel to the fire. what we need is to stop it, restore the agreement and then to begin a serious dialogue of how to end the situation. this occupation must come to an end. e we need to restore the negotiation. we need to restore sanity, we need to get to the point where we can achieve a solution because this is the only way to provide israelis and palestinians. anything the obama administration or the president can do right now that you want them to do? absolutely.
the united states is appealing for calm as a critical and volatile region threatens to explode. we have a team of correspondents standing by. they are in the hot spots of this conflict. an attack could happen at any moment. let s go to our senior international correspondent ben wedeman. ben? yes, wolf, we have seen a variety of strikes this evening. one on a cafe where apparently people were watching the world cup, according to reports from there, five people dead. just up the street from here, a couple hours ago we heard a loud blast. apparently it was a car being driven by somebody for a local tv network. the car was clearly marked. the driver was killed. several bystanders were wounded. now today we had an opportunity to go. north from here very close to the border with israel where we met a family living on the front
regrets having done it the first two years. i sure as week regret it. i know you do. we have more to discuss, anna, dan ask kate. we ll continue our conversation. israel and hamas escalating to new deadly levels. is an israeli invasion of gaza imminent? a situation room special report coming up at the top of the hour.
