you do it differently in the middle east? >> well, first of all, i would have pursued the israeli/palestinian peace process. >> but he tried. >> no, not really. he talked about it. when push came to shove, he didn't try. >> he backed off. >> he backed off. i've been involved in that for 30 years. the fundamental lesson to me is this. the palestinians are too weak and too divided to make concessions, first. the israelis are too strong and too self-confident to make concessions first without something like the united states playing the role of a arbiter, there will be never be peace. and if there is no peace in the short run, the palestinians will pay a high price. in the long run, the israelis will be threatened. and in between, our interests will suffer. >> talk about this issue of political awakening that you describe in the book, and you've done it in a previous one because i think this is a really crucial part of this new world we're going into. >> absolutely. >> everywhere you see these stirrings that countries are more a
