Stuff. as we go through it, wendell, it is also extremely significant for this part of the world, and also the united states position in this world. with the agreement or the suggestion that would bring hamas into the palestinian government, why is president obama pushing these peace talks? >> well, that is the more complicated part of the equation right now. the president knows that he cannot push the israelis to negotiate with a group that is involved, that denies their right to exist, that is...

Listen to one of their speakers on colonialism. >> this is something that makes the israeli settlement of palestine more like that of the united states than south africa. even though i maintain they both have different kind of apartheid system, as does the united states. but the u.s. and israeli models are more models not of subjectgating the population but removal of the population. the situation exists in the middle east is -- its not just the middle east. its conflict in africa. many conflict...
