Assessing a Changing Arab World with Noam Chomsky and Al Jazeera's Marwan Bishara 2/3

Massive public protests continue to sweep the Middle East and North Africa in countries including Bahrain, Libya, Yemen and Iran—many being met with violent government crackdowns. We speak to Marwan Bishara, senior political analyst at Al Jazeera English, and MIT Professor Emeritus Noam Chomsky. "Perhaps the Arab moment has come," Bishara says, "It's clear that the genie is out of the bottle. I think change is coming to the Middle East, to the Arab world." Bishara also discusses the "Palestine Papers," the more than 1,600 secret documents that recorded Middle East peace talks between Israel, the Palestinian leadership and the United States, which were leaked to Al Jazeera and published in January.

The Israelians are intrested with the "process" but not the peace..

The process will take years and years, and as long as you(Palestinians) coming to the table and negotiate, then that's fine..I (Israel) will keep asking you to change the process....
