and it s blatantly political by most accounts. there s no reason to do it now except for the fact that the election is on april 9th, and so far the president as is obvious, has done everything we can for his strong ally, netanyahu. netanyahu last night was saying thank you, you ve made history again, mr. president, thank you president trump, this is the best relationship israel has ever had, saying first you got the embassy moved from tel aviv to jerusalem, tacitly recognizing jerusalem as the capital of israel. they ve closed the palestinian offices in washington and the palestinian offices in israel. and then the iran nuclear deal withdrawing from the nuclear deal against the advice of some of his national security advisers at the time, they re long gone, and our closest european allies.
different strategy. but what prospect do you have for getting support in the u.s. given that the republican leadership has made it very clear where it stands and republican 2016 potential candidates were the first in the u.s. to tweet their congratulations to netanyahu last night. yes, i think that the united states is clearly a problem. this is one of the main issues. if we continue to go down this path in which netanyahu is given a blank check to pursue whether it s an attack on the gaza strip or more settlement activity then we re going to see this very outcome. i think that the two-state solution is now dead. and if anybody still believes in it, then we have to start putting sanctions on israel to make sure that they get punished for the continued settlement activity. diana buttu, thank you so much. and kristen welker you have a lot more news back there. we ll talk to you in a bit. we do. we ll check back in with you. another great conversation andrea. thank you. we ll chec
and i don t think we can wait a year before we take action. we have our policy known to israel. gretchen: there is a public relations spin because president obama poke an hour with netanyahu last night . stay tuned to see if a meeting happens next week when he is in our country. congressman poe thank you. gretchen: teachers are on trike in chicago for a third day now. (chanting) gretchen: teacher s union and school board can t agree on evaluation and right for recall of laid off teachers. we are concerned about any evaluation system that put 28 percent of our numbers in harm s way of being dismissed.
and given his apparent or his alleged role in this film where not yet nailed down, but at least one american, perhaps the american ambassador is dead, it might be time for the department of justice to start viewing his role as an accessory before or after the fact in some i was thinking the same thing, yeah. this is the height of ludicrousness. as you point out and as you point out, go on youtube, and in a country of 325 million, the world, actually, what, 6,000 views? last night, yeah. and now we have a consulate in benghazi in flames and the american embassy in cairo being attacked by people. this is truly, truly ludicrous. i think it s important, though, that it finds a fertile ground because that s already such a volatile situation. the role of the u.s. is already so much in heated violent debate
