      Funny how a Saudi Arabian accuses the USA of double standards. The Arab dictators point fingers when it comes to the Palestine and Israeli conflict as a way to deflect their populations resentments towards America and Israel instead of at their own governments failures. Isn't it hypocritical of the Saudis gov to invest in whorehouses in Europe and impose a curfew upon women in their own country? Americans are naive. They should stop providing aid for the Arab World so that these dictators see what happens when populations rise in anger. We;ll see if the Saudis provide AID for their fellow Arabs then, which they won't.

      Pure manipulation and oppression of the Palestinian people. I wonder where Israel learned there tactics from.

      The foreign minister did a great job of handling the tough questions. Ironically, Charlie Rose never answered the foreign minister's questions. Classical attempt to one side the conversation, paint a picture of evil deception of the other side. Let's be fair.

      Charlie is showing a huge bias here, he should listen to the Minister answers before interrupting him.

      How irresponsible of Charlie Rose not to call Tipzi Levine on the 'disengagement' from Gaza.

      Sure Israel gave up its illegal settlements for 8000 settlers which occupied about 50% of Gaza with a population of over 1.4 million and closed it off completely, from both the occupied West Bank/East Jerusalem and Egypt, the Mediterranean etc, destroyed its water and electricity infrastructure and razed and bombed hundredes of homes and killed over 150 Palestinians civilians from June - Oct 06 in the process.

      All of this under the false pretext of disengagement.

      Funny that discussions of nuclear proliferation never touch upon the responsibilities of countries that already possess them.

      The foreign minister has a point about the double standard the US uses towards Israel and Palestine. It would already be a big change if the US points to Israel it also has to obey the law. That would help us a step further into a peace process.
