Mustafa Barghouti: "Israel Has Completed The Transformation Into An Apartheid State" 3 of 3

With 99 percent of the votes counted Wednesday morning in the Israeli election, Tzipi Livnis centrist Kadima party was in first place with 28 seats, while Benjamin Netanyahu"s right-wing Likud party was a close second with 27 seats. They are both claiming victory but would need coalition partners to gather the 61-seats needed to form a government in the 120-seat Knesset. For analysis of the election results we are joined by two guests. Dr. Mustafa Barghouti is an independent Palestinian lawmaker and democracy activist. He joins us from Washington DC. And on the line from Beersheba, Israel is Neve Gordon, a professor of politics and government at Ben-Gurion University and the author of "Israel"s Occupation."
