447 00:26:01,360 --> 00:26:03,360 and I loved him very much. 448 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,600 It was...maybe the darkest day of my presidency, 449 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,800 and there were some dark ones. 450 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,840 His last words... 451 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,360 ..were in defence of that peace... 452 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,160 he did so much to create. 453 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,880 Because words cannot express my true feelings... 454 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,880 let me just say... 455 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,760 Shalom...chaver. 456 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,440 Goodbye, friend. 457 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,120 In Israel, in order to be a realist, 458 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,480 you must believe in miracles. 459 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,320 This morning, we must all believe in miracles. 460 00:26:42,360 --> 00:26:44,280 Thank you, good morning. 461 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,440 I think the man who killed Yitzak Rabin... 462 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,240 got exactly what he wanted. 463 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,280 He's never recanted it. 464 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,200 Says he believes that he did the right thing... 465 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,600 in killing the peace process, which is effectively what he did. 466 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,720 I knew it would be an enormous boon to the Israeli right. 467 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:07,200 To the people who did not want to make this peace agreement. 468 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,960 And I thought then, and think now, 469 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,200 none of that would have happened, I believe, if Rabin hadn't left. 470 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,480 Cos Arafat truly trusted him. 471 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,800 And we've been dealing with that absence of trust... 472 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,960 ..in the Middle East, and indeed, all over the world. 473 00:27:32,048 --> 00:27:34,200 (CAR ALARM WAILING) 474 00:27:38,120 --> 00:27:42,120 DAJANI: I remember seeing images of Northern Ireland and the Troubles. 475 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,160 Kids facing off against tanks, 476 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:50,440 throwing rocks against heavily armed soldiers. 477 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,880 And there are so many ways in which the Palestinian struggle 478 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:02,880 and the Irish struggle for freedom are similar. 479 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:09,240 A lot of Irish people would see the Irish problem 480 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,600 as being a consequence of the kind of... 481 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:16,640 ..colonisation and settlement over centuries... 482 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,920 that has characterised our experience in Palestine. 483 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,320 Northern Ireland was given the chance of a new beginning... 484 00:28:28,360 --> 00:28:32,160 after nearly two years of talks, after thirty years of conflict, 485 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,360 after thousands of violent deaths and centuries of bitterness. 486 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,480 There are lessons to be learnt from Northern Ireland, 487 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,600 even though the context is very different, 488 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:44,000 which can be applied to the Middle East peace process. 489 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,200 The Good Friday Agreement was a beginning. 490 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,880 But we had committed to a referendum, 491 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,760 and if we couldn't get it agreed, 492 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,760 then the whole agreement would've collapsed. 493 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,400 We needed to do a big intervention, 494 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,520 where President Clinton would put the weight of America 495 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,680 behind getting the referendum agreed. 496 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,600 It took us about five seconds to say there's only one person who 497 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,840 myself and President Clinton will feel comfortable sitting down with, 498 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:15,920 doing what is a very unusual interview, 499 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,800 on a topic of enormous importance, 500 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,640 upon which the entire Northern Ireland peace process rested. 501 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,400 And that person was David. 502 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,960 Now from a look at the news to two men who regularly dominate the news. 503 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:32,040 Late yesterday afternoon, we had an unprecedented joint interview... 504 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,840 with the President and the Prime Minister. 505 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,400 Let's begin on the subject that's on everybody's minds today, 506 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,480 the subject of Northern Ireland and... 507 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,840 that the vote may be more perilously close 508 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,160 than was hoped a week or two ago. 509 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,800 What is your message that each of you have right now 510 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:52,240 to persuade doubting unionists or doubting Catholics? 511 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,880 I mean, I think it is... it's in many ways, 512 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,200 a battle between... 513 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,880 fear and emotion on the one hand, 514 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,920 and reason and hope on the other. 515 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,560 And the fear and the emotion's totally understandable, 516 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,680 but it is important that people vote for reason and hope. 517 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,280 If I could just say, sort of as an... 518 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,840 interested friend, an outside observer... 519 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,440 ..as you know, I've been very involved 520 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,480 in the Middle East peace process. 521 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:23,480 I think, essentially, the people that are for this... 522 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,960 want a better future for their children... 523 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,400 and don't want any more violence. 524 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,000 If you really listen to the arguments of the people 525 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,160 that are against it, and I've tried to listen very respectfully, 526 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,960 it is that they still don't trust... 527 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:38,920 those on the other side. 528 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,200 In 1993, Yitzhak Rabin, 529 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:46,920 right before we signed the agreement between Israel and PLO, 530 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,840 said to me, he said, 'You know, I have spent my life as a soldier. 531 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,040 I have killed a lot of these people, 532 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,200 and they have killed a lot of my people.' 533 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,960 But he said, 'Mr President, you don't make peace with your friends. 534 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,600 You make peace, and then you make friends.' 535 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,240 And I think that's important here. 536 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:09,720 The risks of doing it are so much less than the risks of walking away. 537 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,800 And I think that example is really the relevant one, 538 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,880 of Yitzhak Rabin. 539 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,400 David conducted it with immense skill, 540 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,320 cos the most important thing was that... 541 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,960 Bill Clinton felt able to really explain, 542 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,760 and expound, why... he thought this was so important, 543 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,360 why America thought it was so important. 544 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,840 You know, it played a significant part in getting us... 545 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,080 the result we wanted in the referendum. 546 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:34,840 Yes... 547 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,280 71.12%. 548 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,680 (CHEERING) 549 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,640 I just tried to do what I was asked to do. 550 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,480 If I played a positive role, 551 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,040 I'm grateful to have had to the chance to do so. 552 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,160 (CHUCKLING) 553 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,040 I'll just keep working on it. 554 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,400 The Irish thing ought to give you hope for the Middle East, 555 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:05,240 because the lesson is... just don't ever stop. 556 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,400 In Northern Ireland, this was the day they said would never happen. 557 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,920 In Israel, the opposite has happened. 558 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,880 The situation has destabilised beyond belief. 559 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:21,800 In both contexts, 560 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:25,800 the United States played a significant role in peacemaking, 561 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,960 and that really came to a head 562 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,440 by the time we came to Camp David. 563 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,160 Israeli and Palestinian negotiators are meeting again 564 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,920 at the Middle East peace summit near Washington. 565 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,960 MONTEFIORE: Camp David's a remarkable moment. 566 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,040 Ehud Barak becomes Prime Minister of Israel. 567 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,240 He's got something of the Rabin touch in that... 568 00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:59,480 he's a very, very successful General. 569 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,440 And when he offers to negotiate a peace process, 570 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:07,080 the Israeli electorate elects him and gives him a mandate. 571 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,680 Both Prime Minister Barak and Chairman Arafat... 572 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,880 ..have the vision, the knowledge, the experience, and the ability... 573 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,480 and the sheer guts to do what it takes, I think, 574 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,520 to reach an agreement. 575 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,960 Look, if this were easy, it would have been done a long time ago. 576 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,640 (INDISTINCT CHATTER) (CAMERA SHUTTERS CLICK) 577 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,480 The purpose of Camp David... 578 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,120 was to figure out what the Palestinians would say yes to... 579 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,280 ..and what they couldn't abide. 580 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,880 I was one of the legal advisors who participated in the summit. 581 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,960 I think the American team showed up with an idea... 582 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:53,120 that Camp David would be a little bit like a bazaar, 583 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,400 like negotiations over the sale of a carpet. 584 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,880 The Israelis would come some distance, 585 00:33:59,920 --> 00:34:03,240 and the Palestinians would meet them with a little bit more distance. 586 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:08,639 But for us, the Israelis are not giving us land. 587 00:34:08,679 --> 00:34:10,920 They're giving us our land back. 588 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,880 REPORTER: An agreement is the last thing the Jewish Zealots 589 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,679 living in the Arab town of Hebron want, 590 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,600 because it would almost certainly mean they would have to move. 591 00:34:19,639 --> 00:34:23,080 The weekend clashes were yet another example of their intolerance 592 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,480 and their readiness to use violence. 593 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,520 (GUNFIRE) 594 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,600 Islamic radicals warning Yasser Arafat not to surrender. 595 00:34:32,679 --> 00:34:35,080 (ALL CHANTING)

trust here in two of the main parties. 599 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,360 I said, 'OK, this is best I can do.' 600 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:52,880 The Israelis said OK, and Arafat seemed to be genuinely committed. 601 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,199 So I said, 'Do you wanna do this or not?' 602 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,920 BUERK: The Middle East peace talks at Camp David have broken down 603 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,280 after 15 days of negotiations. 604 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,560 I have concluded, with regret, 605 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,480 that they will not be able to reach an agreement at this time. 606 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:25,400 Camp David was a last-ditch attempt by President Clinton. 607 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:29,200 But, of course, Clinton realised a big chance had been given away. 608 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:34,080 We met earlier this week when the former President was briefly in London. 609 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,880 Tell me, Mr President, you said, '"Right before I left office... 610 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:42,240 Arafat thanked me for all my efforts and told me what a great man I was." 611 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:46,040 "Mr Chairman," I replied, "I'm not
