Questioned their right to exist. this vote was not about that. it was about action that palestinians and egyptians are taking increasingly rendering a two-state solution in possible. not about making peace with the palestinians now. it was ash makie about making s was possible in the future. now, we all understand that israel faces extraordinary serious threats in a very tough neighborhood, and israelis are very correct in making sure that theres not a terrorist haven right on their border, but ...

Ill be interested to see what kerry will say. it almost looks as three hes going to say what could have been for the administration had he been allowed to proceed. >> carine, beyond israel, beyond the two-state solution that has evaded for decades now, beyond that, obamacare, climate change, how real is the worry that a president donald trump is going to be able to undo a lot of what president obama did? >> i think there is a true worry that thats what donald trump ran on for the past 18 months ...

Groups, strong defense groups, all of which have an aggressive stance toward the settlers. that is not all of israeli public opinion, it is certainly not international opinion. it is a very tricky, difficult kind of situation. donald trump has clearly signaled hes going to stay with the netanyahu government, full steam ahead with the settlements, u.n. be damned, peace process be damned. if thats what john kerry believes, i think we can hear him sort of denounce that in advance today. >> you cove...

To work openly on securing that peace with significant regional security cooperation. its waiting. its right there. many have shown a willingness to support negotiations and to take steps on the path to normalization to relations, including public meetings, providing there is a meaningful progress toward a two-state solution. my friends, thats a real opportunity that we should not allow to be missed. that raises one final question. is ours the generation that gives up on the dream of a jewish de...

Palestinian girls played in the rubble of a bombed out building. no children, israeli or palestinian, should have to live like that. so despite the obvious difficulties that i understood when i became secretary of state, i knew that i had to do everything in my power to help end this conflict. and i was grateful to be working for president obama, who is prepared to take risks for peace and was deeply committed to that effort. like previous u.s. administrations, we have committed our influence an...

Lieberman, elise labott. read more of the mission to save diplomacy on cnn.com. talk of secretary of state kerrys assertion a short time ago "the two-state solution is in serious jeopardy." our panel, hala gorani, and our other panel members. hala, stasht with yrt with you. did secretary kerrys speech do anything to change the chance of peace in the middle east or is it possible it might have even made it tougher? >> well, at this late stage perhaps in the obama administration with three more we...

Block the u.n. resolution that makes clear both sides have to take steps to save the two-state solution while there is still time. we did not take this decision lightly. the obama administration has always defended israel against any effort at the u.n. and any international fora or biased and one-sided resolutions that sought to undermine its legitimacy or security, and that has not change. didnt change with this vote, but, remember, its important to note that every united states administration,...

On that accusation that we had evidence that the university is behind it. >> what we heard today is how much of a sharp departure was that speech from what we heard in the administration in the past eight years. >> in terms of policy, not much. mostly behind closed doors and the u.s. articulated in peace meals and in the past eight years. in terms of blunt assessment that the u.s. administration has concluded that the two state resolution is in jeopardy. thats different. i have spoken to a few p...

Significant frustration on the part of the obama administration which had made middle east peace a significant priority from right the outset. here we are eight years later and wur further away from a two-state solution than ever before kerry having devoted countless hours, two years of deep effort to try to bring about negotiations and i think what he wanted to do was to leave behind as comprehensive a picture as possible of what it is that the united states sees as the main issues on the table...

Part that he was very much disagreeing with the policy. he tweeted, we cannot continue to let israel be treated with total disdain and disrespect. he went on to say this will all change on january 20th. prime minister netanyahu tweeted in response that president-elect trump, thank you for your warm friendship and your clear-cut support for israel. netanyahu called your proposals and the vote shameful. he has said it was a coordinated, orchestrated attempt by you. >> to the vote, the resolution, ...
