iranians they had until july 20 to stop enriching uranium to use for building bombs. they didn't. >> everybody said in the beginning of this, the sanctions won't work, the sanctions regime won't hold, iran won't do as it's supposed to, and they're dead wrong. everything iran was supposed to do, they've eye. >> iran is going to get access to nearly $3 billion in their sanction access, but some disagree with freeing up those frozen funds. >> i'm not a big proponent to paying to negotiate, and the $2.7 billion we've given to iran in exchange for them to negotiate is pretty preposterous
iran. dismantle those elements that can make a nuclear weapon and remove them from iran. that's the formula. >> mark regev, thank you, sir, for your time today. we'll continue to monitor the situation and watch as your prime minister prepares to speak to the country there. thank you, sir. >> my pleasure. thank you for having me. well, as bodies continue to be recovered and tensions over access to the crash site heat up, they are blaming the passenger plane downing on ukraine separatists who had russian military help. john kerry appeared on five talk shows. >> he says the u.s. military has been engaged, and he also calls for tougher sanctions saying it does require russia's full cooperation as well as
>> with the extension of time, we ought to bring back the me n -- menendez kirk sanctions. even the president is worried about the iranians. >> what will they do with the time they have? >> they will likely make a nuclear weapon with the time they have. if the united states doesn't put into place effects of non-military sanctions to make sure americans have a strong reason to end their night, there is allying with iran. >> why are they adamant about shutting things down now? why do they think it will lead to nuclear weapons in the hands of irani leaders?
>> well, first let me say in terms of israel and the palestinia palestinians, i agree with everything my colleague pete king said. we should never forget hamas is a terrorist group, and you have to fight terrorist groups. i'm not particularly bothered we have a four-month extension. i think in many ways it works to our advantage because sanctions are still on iran and their economy is hurting, and it's sanctions that brought them to the table. but i think we have to be very, very tough with them. secretary kerry has said no deal is better than a bad deal, and i agree with that. the question is what do we consider a good deal and a bad deal? iran is the largest supporter of terrorism of any country in the world. when you look at hamas and gaza now and you look at where they've gotten their weaponry, most of it has come from iran. so we should be under no illusion that these are bad people. they have not been willing to talk about lowering their
mistake or unerrone error. one bad day israel could be destroyed. to me, hamas is what al qaeda was to us in 9/11. they're an evil terrorist group and gang, and israel has the absolute right to do all it can to defend itself and take any action against hamas, and any civilian deaths are because of hamas and the way they've positioned their rockets and their forces. >> congressman engle, obviously israel is in a very tough neighborhood. they've got issues with hamas and leading now to this offensive they've got. but at the same time they're also very concerned with what's going on with iran, these talks that the deal to negotiate has now been kicked to november. i believe you had a chance to talk with secretary kerry a little bit about this this week and about the possibility of sanctions. what do you make of the situation as it now stands with iran and these nuclear talks?
to me. on capitol hill, they're saying the latest extension needs to be the last extension. >> i do want to see tougher sanctions put in place in the event we do not meet an agreement this go-around. but we should be clear there will be no more extensions. >> and diane feinstein said it is closing. >> we want to know what you think about iran. will the extension of iran nuk talks bring resolution or give iran more time to build weapons? we'll read your response later on in the show. icon and screen actor james garner passed away in georgia. he was "maverick" and later on served as private eye in "the
afghan at this time. >> we have russia, we have delayed talks with iran over its nuclear program, the fact we need them and a gap between us and them at this point. were you surprised that there was an extension of these talks now into november? >> remember, the key thing about the extension is the united states provided a four-month extension into iran after secretary kerry testified in front of the senate that iran was only two months away from nuclear weaponry. >> there was a move on capitol hill and you got a lot of co-sponsors that would beef up sanctions for iran. the white house threatened to veto it. why would the senate majority leader bring that to a vote?
cancel rights here and in the united states, and we should start exposing money that they have hidden in banks around the world, including here in the united states, and seize the assets that we can. >> congressman engle, final word to you. >> well, it was sanctions that brought iran to the negotiating table. i think severe sanctions for putin is warranted. there's no doubt that he has complicity, there's no doubt what he's trying to do, recreate the soviet union. this shooting down of a plane is an act of terror. it cannot be tolerated. >> congressman engle, congressman king, thank you both very much. it's an event that anyone who saw it will never forget. proof that the u.s. had won the space race. 45 years ago today, neal armstrong became the first man to set foot on the moon. all these years later, many of us are still moonstruck.
built for business. we are monitoring prime minister benjamin netanyahu's speech in tel aviv. keeping a live eye on that, and also we have author joe rosenberg who served az consus consultant to the prime minister. we have all that coming up. today was supposed to be the deadline for iran and six world powers to resolve the decades-old dispute over its nuclear program. but after failing to do so, diplomats have agreed to extend that deadline for four months. peter is live. hi, peter. >> they have another four months to negotiate the future of their nuclear program in iran. great britain, germany, france, china and russia all told the
they want these civilians as human shields for their own propaganda and extremist agenda. ultimately, israel is doing everything we can to safeguard the life of civilians and hamas is doing the opposite. they are deliberately bringing gaza civilians into harm's way. >> we're almost out of time, but i very quickly want to ask you your reaction to the extension of time on the iran nuclear talks now into november? >> you know, that's better than getting a bad deal. we always said no deal is better than a bad deal. and a bad deal is one that allows iran to become a threshold nuclear state and then it chooses a time when it's good for iran. they crossed that threshold and can move to nuclear weapons m. h that's not good. we say the example is actually what president obama achieved in
