In their support for the. Peace plan the Israeli Palestinian conflict once again is getting attention but its not clear this latest effort will be the way to peace for the palestinians and the israelis rosalyn jordan aljazeera washington struck because of the Palestinian Authority and its rival hamas have both denounced a u. S. Plan accusing trump of trying to buy them off in return for not having their own state amasses senior political leaders says the whole thing is a fox. The Conference Held at the moment in bahrain is a political conference with an economic coverup it is totally a political event with the financial and economic camouflage simply for the reason that this conference and the deal called the deal of the century is aimed at achieving the following 1st to lay the foundation for terminating the palestinian kohls sake and giving the green light to the zionist enemy to extend its occupation and control over the entire west Bank Aljazeera as rob matheson has more from gaza city. Its estimated there are 2000000 People Living in gaza at the moment thats about 5600 every square kilometer but the streets of gaza city are quieter this Tuesday Morning because theres a general strike which is opposed to the economic part of the u. S. Plan to try to find a solution to the Israeli Palestinian crisis according to palestinian official figures in 2852 percent of gazans didnt have jobs gazas infrastructure is struggling on Tuesday Morning israel said it wasnt sending any fuel to gazas only power plant and they said it was because gazans had been flying balloons carrying flares into israel in the hopes of setting fires. Under the u. S. Plan that gaza would be entitled to a share of about 28000000000. 00 in fasting that would be designed to rebuild the infrastructure and it hopes to create about a 1000000 jobs but people here in gaza say thats not the point the main priority for them is a political solution gazans say that the u. S. Plan is designed to distract from the main political objectives the right to return to land which they say is theirs and the removal of controls put on them by mainly the israelis now the israelis say those controls and necessary to stop weapons coming into gaza that could be used against them but the gazans say those controls are at least in part responsible. For the poor state of gazas economy be safe remove the controls and the economy will improve for the people of gaza the important point is to find a political solution to this crisis i dont need them with the Start Talking about the money in lebanon the palestinian political goal fatah organized protests in the refugee camp in southern beirut more than 9000. 00 Palestinian Refugees a cramped into the camp which was set up by the red cross in 1949 as in a harder has more. The children of the 948. 00 Palestinian Refugees now living in lebanon theyre taking part in this demonstration to protest the conference taking place in bahrain which is this causing the trumpet ministrations middle east economic peace plan people here are angry because they believe the trumpet ministration is pushing for a peace settlement that does not involve the right to return these refugees have been living in exile for 17 years now and they believe any solution to the Israeli Palestinian conflict the power to involve the rights to return like this very difficult here they live in urban camps in very dire conditions and so the feeling here or the message from the path to follow stein is a not for sale no matter how much money you offer us we are not going to give up our rights to return home. But the palestinian president has expressed in terms of the rejection to the bahrain summit echoes the folds of every palestinian in the diaspora we stand behind the Palestinian National leadership and its decisions we say no to the deal of the century palestine will not be sold we cling to our right to return to palestine we cling to the land of our ancestors but this is our right to the end of time. The deal of the century is not new for the palestinians are 5 who continue whether they agree or not we dont care about whats happening we have men and refugees in europe and all around the world and they will never let go of palestine everything thats happening now is nonsense our weapons are pointed at the zionist enemy. Palestinians feel the United States is not an honest broker and they believe that its alliance with israel means that any settlement that they propose will be tilted in favor of the israelis and the question they ask here is that if they care so much about our Economic Conditions that. Why dont they lift the siege on gaza and why did the Us Administration decide to cut funding to the United Nations relief and works agency under water which is the only organization providing help to these people 11 on the host country is also not attending the back room of a conference in solidarity with the palestinians lebanese officials fear that the deal of the century of the socalled deal of the century will involve naturalizing and resettling Palestinian Refugees in the host country something that this country says it will not accept. Donald trump has threatened to obliterate iran if it attacks anything american the u. S. President delivered the warning via twitter in the new war of words where the iran tehran has condemned new u. S. Sanctions as idiotic saying by force from the iranian capital. In his 1st public appearance since iran shot down a u. S. Surveillance drone last week president Hassan Rouhani did not hold back he said the latest sanctions targeting irans Supreme LeaderAyatollah Ali Khamenei are the irrational actions of a confused government didnt know it they are suffering from mental disability the white house is afflicted with mental retardation and doesnt know what to do. The Supreme Leader occupies such a protected position in public life that in iran insulting him is illegal in the u. S. Applying her status to someone so highly revered has angered leaders and to her own right but of only your own band a lobbyist not me he is not only the leader of iran and he is the leader of iran and those who love the revolution and all muslims shia and non sheo all around the world irans leader doesnt only belong to ron many people in lebanon syria iraq afghanistan pakistan kuwait and everywhere shia and non shia love him follow him and obey him and someone who has lost his mind does such a stupid and strange thing and for washingtons the us. Iran is under such sweeping sanctions that the. Latest american move is entirely symbolic but later this week washington has said it will add irans foreign minister zarif to the sanctions list attacking the countrys top diplomat is something to her and says permanently closes the path to diplomacy making an enemy go if youre being honest and want to negotiate simultaneously do you want to impose sanctions on the foreign minister so it is clear that you are lying as the u. S. Continues its Pressure Campaign russia has vowed to help iran counter new u. S. Sanctions if. Iran has been and remains our ally and partner and we consistently develop our relations both bilateral and multilateral which means any attempt to portray tehran as a main threat to Regional Security or to bring it into line with isis or other terrorist groups is unacceptable to us. But some u. S. Officials remain undeterred the president has held the door open to real negotiations to completely and verifiably eliminated Irans NuclearWeapons Program its pursuit of Ballistic MissileDelivery Systems its support for International Terrorism and its other malign behavior worldwide all that iran needs to do is to walk through that open door. On tuesday foreign minister zarif said once again irans religious views mean it will never pursue a Nuclear Weapon and he also reminded people that america is the only basin to ever drop Nuclear Bombs on another country World Leaders want cooler heads to prevail and washington keeps saying that it wants to calm things down through dialogue but the decision to sanction irans Supreme Leader is something so insulting that protect one it might make a negotiated solution nearly impossible. To iran. U. S. Special counsel Robert Muller will publicly testify before 2 committees next month where a shooter reforged in april on russian interference in the 2016 u. S. President ial election in a statement and Statement Last month he raised questions over whether donald trump had obstructed justice but said a sitting president could not be charged with a crime patty cohen has the details from washington. Some new information coming out that now former special counsel Robert Muller is going to testify before 2 house committees in open session hes doing this under subpoena now this is all going to happen july 17th and it is going to be run on all of the Television Programs this is not going to be welcome news u. S. President donald trump because after the special counsel submitted his report to the attorney general the attorney general waited a few weeks to put that report out but he did summarize the findings basically saying no conclusion no obstruction in the investigation into russian interference in the 26th election now if you read the report thats not exactly what the special counsel was saying there were muller said he didnt want to do this he didnt want to testify he said read the report but the bottom line is not Many Americans and not all members of congress have actually read the 400. 00 plus pages much less the 45. 00 page summary so this is going to be a chance for democrats to set the narrative to put out all the damaging information in the report on camera that can be looped around for the American People to watch over and over again now there are some democrats in the house who have said this report should lead to impeachment hearings the leadership has not wanted to go there they say the American Public is not for impeachment this will be the democrats best chance to try and change Public Opinion and whether or not the u. S. President should be impeached.
