7. Congressmen DeSantos and Korb.Copy !req
8. And we just got word.
Admiral Fitzwallace.Copy !req
9. The people responsible will be found
and brought to justice.Copy !req
10. It's time to focus on the terrorist
elements who've declared war on us.Copy !req
11. What are my other options?Copy !req
12. - There's the Palestinian Authority.
- Chairman Farad?Copy !req
13. He's asked for the opportunity to
arrest suspects identified by the FBI.Copy !req
14. He won't treat us like Israelis.
We can bring him to the table.Copy !req
15. Sir. The country wants action.Copy !req
16. Chairman Farad. He's on TV.Copy !req
17. He's thanking us for inviting him
to a summit with the Israelis.Copy !req
18. - We didn't invite him!
- He's publicly accepted . . .Copy !req
19. . . . our invitation to Camp David.Copy !req
20. I think you're gun-shy, sir.Copy !req
21. The most important moment of your
presidency and you'll blow it . . .Copy !req
22. . . . for being human.Copy !req
23. I'm the guy in the office, Leo.
I'll be the one who's judged.Copy !req
24. Escort.Copy !req
25. Attention.Copy !req
26. Forward.Copy !req
27. Center. Face.Copy !req
28. We can't let the chairman bully us
into hosting summits, sir.Copy !req
29. - Who will know?
- The people at State know.Copy !req
30. - At the Pentagon.
- And the Israelis know.Copy !req
31. If forced to host a summit,
they'll leak it.Copy !req
32. That so bad? The chairman wants
a peace summit. Isn't it a start?Copy !req
33. He invited himself to Camp David.
What next?Copy !req
34. Raid the Council on Foreign Relations?Copy !req
35. Sir, we need to focus
on military action.Copy !req
36. Retaliation for the deaths
of our people in Gaza.Copy !req
37. I've got a guy who wants to come
to a peace table, and I've got a table.Copy !req
38. Tell Farad he can have his summit
if it doubles as his retirement party.Copy !req
39. - I'll buy the watch.
- What do I need from him . . .Copy !req
40. . . .to get the Israelis to Camp David?Copy !req
41. He'd have to arrest
the leaders of Hamas . . .Copy !req
42. . . . of historical Palestine
he's gonna recognize as Israel.Copy !req
43. Plus the watch?Copy !req
44. Mr. President, this way, please.Copy !req
45. Sir.Copy !req
46. I feel as if my counsel was largely
responsible for this mess.Copy !req
47. I get lots of counsel, Ms. Harper.Copy !req
48. What I choose to do with it
is my responsibility.Copy !req
49. Ted Harbert called from 60 Minutes.Copy !req
50. He has a congressional widow
on camera demanding the president . . .Copy !req
51. - . . . avenge her husband's death.
- Which one?Copy !req
52. Tom Korb's. They're hoping the
president will go on camera to respond.Copy !req
53. To defend his tie-dye, hippie,
blowing-in-the-wind . . .Copy !req
54. . . . peacenik pipe dream while the
grieving widow rends her garments?Copy !req
55. Want me to get you
in the Oval right away?Copy !req
56. The president won't be back
in the building till this afternoon.Copy !req
57. —my desire to restart negotiations
with the Israelis.Copy !req
58. The Israelis won't get in a room
with Farad again.Copy !req
59. I'm surprised the Prime Minister
hasn't said so in 3 different languages.Copy !req
60. - The president asked him not to.
- He won't deal.Copy !req
61. Last time, Israel offered up Gaza,
96 percent of the West Bank . . .Copy !req
62. . . . half of Jerusalem, Temple Mount,
and the lead role . . .Copy !req
63. . . .in the Temple Beth el Purim Play.
Farad walked away.Copy !req
64. - What do you need, Will?
- A president to respond to the murder . . .Copy !req
65. . . . of two congressmen.Copy !req
66. - The vice president can't support him.
- He plans to say so publicly?Copy !req
67. He speaks at the Israel Policy Forum
Gala on Friday. It may come up.Copy !req
68. He can't be convinced
to come down with the flu?Copy !req
69. He's a pretty healthy guy.Copy !req
70. The president knows?
You're telling him?Copy !req
71. - Knows what?
- There is no viable alternative.Copy !req
72. He's going to
have to bomb Palestinians.Copy !req
73. Blessed are the merciful,
for they shall obtain mercy.Copy !req
74. Blessed are they which are persecuted
for righteousness' sake . . .Copy !req
75. . . . for theirs will be
the kingdom of heaven.Copy !req
76. And blessed are the peacemakers . . .Copy !req
77. . . . for they shall be called . . .Copy !req
78. . . . the children of God.Copy !req
79. - We have no choice but to retaliate.
- Khalil Nasan is still in Gaza?Copy !req
80. Yes. We've linked Nasan's bombing
of our congressional delegation . . .Copy !req
81. . . .to the Khanjari Martyrs.Copy !req
82. And the martyrs are using the
Ein Hawa camp near Damascus . . .Copy !req
83. - . . .as their base of operation.
- In Syria?Copy !req
84. E-mails and cellular communications
indicate they supplied the munitions . . .Copy !req
85. - . . . and technical support for Nasan.
- What are you proposing?Copy !req
86. Syria and Iran are the primary
supporters of the martyrs.Copy !req
87. The Lincoln Battle Group
is in strike range.Copy !req
88. We can use SLAM-ER missiles
against the camp . . .Copy !req
89. . . . and the two terrorist training camps
in Northern Iran, east of Birjand.Copy !req
90. - And forget the summit.
- What summit?Copy !req
91. - The Israelis won't meet with Farad.
- The region is a powder keg.Copy !req
92. Name once in the last 20 centuries
when it wasn't.Copy !req
93. Egypt, Jordan and the Saudis will
help us craft a deal with Farad . . .Copy !req
94. . . . but it falls apart if we
start bombing Syria and Iran.Copy !req
95. The way to stop attacks
against Americans abroad . . .Copy !req
96. . . .is to show we're willing
to respond when provoked.Copy !req
97. Bombing Syria and Iran sends
a powerful message, Mr. President.Copy !req
98. Do we have any evidence
linking Iran to Nasan?Copy !req
99. If we take this opportunity to strike
Iranian terrorist camps, believe me . . .Copy !req
100. . . . we'll find a way to link attacks
on our people back to them.Copy !req
101. We use the attack on our
congressional delegation . . .Copy !req
102. . . .as a pretext to attack another country
we don't know to be responsible?Copy !req
103. - I'm not suggesting that—
- Then what the hell are you suggesting?Copy !req
104. - There's intelligence—
- I won't use Admiral Fitzwallace's . . .Copy !req
105. . . . death and of our congressmen
as a pretext to attack . . .Copy !req
106. - . . . another country we don't like.
- The ambassador is here.Copy !req
107. I wanna see what we have linking
Nasan to the martyrs in Syria.Copy !req
108. If you find any credible, verifiable
evidence dragging Iran into this . . .Copy !req
109. . . .I'll take a look at that too.Copy !req
110. Thank you, sir.Copy !req
111. I'm not bombing half the Middle East
so it would make us all feel better.Copy !req
112. - They're on your side.
- Really?Copy !req
113. It was hard believing
that a few minutes ago.Copy !req
114. Sir, you can't delay any longer.
There are no rabbits left in this hat.Copy !req
115. - I'm not prepared to accept that.
- You're going to have to, sir.Copy !req
116. The ambassador's waiting.Copy !req
117. Looks like your boy's
got himself in trouble.Copy !req
118. - My boy?
- Bartlet.Copy !req
119. He's been President Bartlet for six
years. Hasn't been "boy" for about 50.Copy !req
120. Israel is never gonna meet with Farad.Copy !req
121. Why should they? They have him
surrounded in the West Bank.Copy !req
122. What does Bartlet think they'll do?
Knock on the door, say:Copy !req
123. "I'm so sorry about all the tanks
and stuff, but . . .Copy !req
124. . . . want to come to America,
have a chat and sort this out?"Copy !req
125. - Where are you from?
- Belfast.Copy !req
126. You guys are the model of how
to work things out over there.Copy !req
127. - We are, actually.
- The Israelis have a right . . .Copy !req
128. - . . .to protect themselves.
- They oppress people for self-rule.Copy !req
129. They're soldiers trying to keep
their sisters from getting blown up.Copy !req
130. - You Jewish?
- You anti-Semitic?Copy !req
131. Thinking the Palestinians
have a point is anti-Semitic.Copy !req
132. Anyone who thinks the Jews don't
after being chased and exiled . . .Copy !req
133. . . . and persecuted for centuries is either
an idiot or a fool. Probably both.Copy !req
134. Madame Ambassador.Copy !req
135. - Mr. McGarry.
- Pleasure. Good to see you.Copy !req
136. - Thank you.
- Please.Copy !req
137. Admiral Fitzwallace was a great man.Copy !req
138. - All Israelis mourn his loss.
- Thank you.Copy !req
139. Israel cannot agree to attend
a summit with Chairman Farad . . .Copy !req
140. . . . while our citizens are being
brutally murdered every day.Copy !req
141. Whether we like it or not,
Farad is in charge.Copy !req
142. The U.S. has sought regime change
in dictatorships around the world.Copy !req
143. Is Israel to be held
to a higher standard?Copy !req
144. Israel was created to be a land free
from oppression.Copy !req
145. Whether the land is rightly Palestinian,
Israeli, Jordanian or Judean . . .Copy !req
146. . . . the people who live in the territories
are oppressed.Copy !req
147. By their leadership, by the neglect
of Arab neighbors, and yes, by Israel.Copy !req
148. I'm sorry, Mr. President.Copy !req
149. Chairman Farad is interested
in only one thing: murdering Israelis.Copy !req
150. And apparently he's decided it's now
time to start murdering Americans too.Copy !req
151. We won't participate in any discussions
which include Chairman Farad.Copy !req
152. If you'll excuse me, sir.Copy !req
153. C.J. ! C.J. !Copy !req
154. Gordon.Copy !req
155. Republicans are going to the White
House to meet with the president.Copy !req
156. - What will they say?
- They'll do what they always do.Copy !req
157. Express unanimous and unqualified
support of the president's policies.Copy !req
158. It's not just the Republicans.Copy !req
159. Democrats don't understand
why the president is . . .Copy !req
160. . . . wringing his hands
when the Israelis send tanks.Copy !req
161. We're working with leaders
of both parties.Copy !req
162. They know the president
will act. Chris.Copy !req
163. No, they don't, C.J.
Neither do the American people.Copy !req
164. Gallup is saying 82 percent support
military action in response to Gaza.Copy !req
165. The president doesn't make security
decisions based on opinion polls. Chris.Copy !req
166. Will the Israelis participate in a summit
with the Palestinians?Copy !req
167. Israeli officials are saying
they won't if Farad is invited.Copy !req
168. We're discussing the specifics
of any possible talks with members...Copy !req
169. of the Palestinian authority
and the Israeli government.Copy !req
170. - C.J.!
- How's she doing?Copy !req
171. Okay, considering she's human chum.Copy !req
172. - Anything from Josh?
- Yeah.Copy !req
173. Donna's back in surgery. Something
about a pulmonary embolism.Copy !req
174. - Margaret.
- 60 Minutes is gonna run an interview . . .Copy !req
175. - . . . with Christine Korb.
- Yeah. C.J. told me this morning.Copy !req
176. - See if you can reach Josh.
- We need to get to Alicia DeSantos.Copy !req
177. The president doesn't want us
hauling out a widow . . .Copy !req
178. - . . .like a political lawn ornament.
- I can call.Copy !req
179. - You don't have to let him know—
- Not today.Copy !req
180. - I got enough problems.
- What's the president doing, Leo?Copy !req
181. A summit? He's already got a Nobel
Prize. What's he need a second one for?Copy !req
182. - Bookends?
- The speaker's here.Copy !req
183. Let the president's office know.
Then show him in.Copy !req
184. He brought half of Congress with him.
Don't think they'll all fit.Copy !req
185. Mr. Speaker. Nice to see you.
Richard, David, Leslie.Copy !req
186. Sheila, surprised to see you
running with this crowd.Copy !req
187. - It's not a partisan issue.
- A show of unity would be . . .Copy !req
188. - . . . helpful to the White House.
- The president is in the Oval.Copy !req
189. - He'll be right with us.
- Have you listened to the radio?Copy !req
190. - I've been a little busy.
- Have you been listening to the radio?Copy !req
191. - Oldies? Traffic?
- The nation's taking . . .Copy !req
192. . . . these peace talks badly. People
believe you sent congressmen . . .Copy !req
193. - . . . into harm's way.
- The same right-wing turkey basters . . .Copy !req
194. . . . who said I faked MS to get the
sympathy vote in the last election?Copy !req
195. Nice to see you. Please sit down.Copy !req
196. Members of Congress were killed,
Mr. President. Instead of seeking justice . . .Copy !req
197. . . .you're inviting them to play
dodgeball at Camp David.Copy !req
198. You're ignoring the sacrifice
they made for their country.Copy !req
199. - I'm trying to honor it.
- You're appeasing terrorists . . .Copy !req
200. . . .by rewarding them
with a peace summit.Copy !req
201. If the issue here is congressional
consultation, we can assure you that—Copy !req
202. Mr. President . . .Copy !req
203. . . .you have to go on national
television, admit your mistake . . .Copy !req
204. . . . and retract those invitations. You've
insulted these men and their memories.Copy !req
205. You have to put this summit back
into the cereal box it came in.Copy !req
206. I didn't come here to play games.Copy !req
207. I am trying to find a way
to make peace.Copy !req
208. And when I do, you can go on TV
and explain why you're against it.Copy !req
209. Israeli sources indicate that Prime
Minister Zahavy remains reluctant...Copy !req
210. to meet with Palestinian Chairman
Farad. The Israeli Defense Minister—Copy !req
211. Ms. Moss was experiencing shortness
of breath and chest pain.Copy !req
212. Her chest CT revealed a blood clot
in her right lung.Copy !req
213. She asked if she could see you
before we put her under.Copy !req
214. - Me?
- No. Mr. Lyman.Copy !req
215. I just talked to the doctor.
They said it's no big deal.Copy !req
216. Yeah, it's stylish, huh?Copy !req
217. He tell you what they were gonna do?Copy !req
218. It's gonna be a snap.Copy !req
219. Yeah.Copy !req
220. Don't be.Copy !req
221. You're gonna be fine, okay?Copy !req
222. Okay, Donna. Here we go.Copy !req
223. The strike force can launch
in six hours.Copy !req
224. It's two hours to the targets in Syria,
same to Gaza.Copy !req
225. Air-to-ground smart munitions against
both. Back on the deck in four hours.Copy !req
226. Intel still has Khalil Nasan
at the same location in Gaza?Copy !req
227. Yes. We have to hope he stays
there till mid morning.Copy !req
228. Good.Copy !req
229. - You'll talk to him?
- Yeah.Copy !req
230. We lose track of Nasan now, who
knows when we pick him up again?Copy !req
231. Thank you, general.Copy !req
232. —President Bartlet, in particular,
his approval rating is slipping...Copy !req
233. in light of his support
of peace talks...Copy !req
234. - Leo? Do you have a moment?
- Sure.Copy !req
235. I encouraged the president
to pursue a meeting with Mukarat.Copy !req
236. I should have anticipated
Chairman Farad—Copy !req
237. Did you bury a mortar shell on a
roadside in Gaza two days ago?Copy !req
238. - No. I feel in hindsight—
- The president heard . . .Copy !req
239. . . . what he wanted to hear, and went
where he wanted to go. He's over 21.Copy !req
240. Don't flatter yourself. You're not
changing the course of history.Copy !req
241. I won't take up any more
of your time.Copy !req
242. He doesn't like chaos.Copy !req
243. We bomb some apartment building
in Gaza or a camp in Syria . . .Copy !req
244. . . . there'll be consequences, and we
can't tell him what they're going to be.Copy !req
245. Will we get drawn into a war
in the Middle East?Copy !req
246. Will suicide bombers be climbing
onto buses in Passaic, New Jersey . . .Copy !req
247. . . . instead of Tel Aviv and Haifa?Copy !req
248. Excuse me, Leo. The president's asking
for you and Ms. Harper in the Oval.Copy !req
249. The president's looking for answers,
and we don't have them.Copy !req
250. No idea is too stupid or outrageous.Copy !req
251. Party clowns, piñatas. I'd build
a mosque out of Jell-O if I thought . . . .Copy !req
252. I need ideas, new ideas. Come on.Copy !req
253. Just throw things out, and we'll see
if anything comes of it.Copy !req
254. I think we need to shift the
conversation back to the military—Copy !req
255. Come on. Who else?Copy !req
256. - Is the FBI any closer to—?
- I'm serious. Farad and the Israelis.Copy !req
257. How to get them
in the same room together.Copy !req
258. Previous peace plans focused on getting
Chairman Farad to crack down on . . .Copy !req
259. - . . . Hamas and terrorist groups.
- That's not powerful.Copy !req
260. - He picks a fight with Hamas . . . .
- No idea is too stupid or outrageous.Copy !req
261. - We let Farad come to Camp David . . . .
- No, no. Be realistic.Copy !req
262. - Realistic or suicidal?
- No one cares to end the violence.Copy !req
263. What if we can add
credibility to the summit?Copy !req
264. Something the Palestinians
and the Israelis could buy into?Copy !req
265. - Really stupid ideas?
- Yes. Absolutely.Copy !req
266. We ignore everything that's
happened in the last 24 hours.Copy !req
267. Yesterday, Farad was cooperating
with us, planning to arrest Nasan . . .Copy !req
268. . . . and other perpetrators.
Then Israelis surrounded . . .Copy !req
269. . . . his compound in the West Bank.
His people in Gaza refused . . .Copy !req
270. - . . .to arrest Nasan, right?
- Yeah? So?Copy !req
271. So we hold Farad
to his earlier promise.Copy !req
272. Tell him if he wants a summit,
he has to arrest Nasan.Copy !req
273. Show that he's serious
about punishing terrorists.Copy !req
274. How's he supposed to do that . . .Copy !req
275. . . . when his compound is surrounded
by Israeli tanks?Copy !req
276. Farad was never gonna do it himself.
The Palestinian Authority was . . .Copy !req
277. - . . . waiting to proceed.
- Israelis turned off his power and cell.Copy !req
278. Get him a new one. They won't stop the
American consulate from giving him one.Copy !req
279. - They might.
- A cell phone.Copy !req
280. He can use mine if he wants.Copy !req
281. - You're right. It's a stupid idea.
- Why?Copy !req
282. Who cares if he has a phone?
He's not gonna punish Nasan.Copy !req
283. He's rounded up terrorists before.Copy !req
284. He walks them past
Al Jazeera for show.Copy !req
285. Puts them on house arrest
in a palace . . .Copy !req
286. . . . with a squash court
and high-speed Internet.Copy !req
287. - Tell him he must turn Nasan over.
- He won't do it.Copy !req
288. - How do you know?
- His followers think Nasan's a hero . . .Copy !req
289. . . . for blowing up Americans.
He turns the guy to Satan?Copy !req
290. If he says no or equivocates,
we go public, say we wanted Farad . . .Copy !req
291. . . . for a summit, we identified the killer,
but he refused to turn him over.Copy !req
292. We look reasonable, measured.
He has no one to blame but himself.Copy !req
293. If he does turn over Nasan, we go
to the Israelis and say, "Hey, look.Copy !req
294. He's serious this time. "Copy !req
295. Can it work?Copy !req
296. - No.
- No.Copy !req
297. - Maybe.
- Maybe.Copy !req
298. Somebody get the man a cell phone,
and tell him to expect a call . . .Copy !req
299. . . . from the president.
Thanks, everyone.Copy !req
300. - Thank you.
- Thank you.Copy !req
301. - Leo. You're okay with—?
- Coordinate with State.Copy !req
302. Thank you, Mr. President.Copy !req
303. Congress is drafting a resolution
demanding that you take military action.Copy !req
304. Yeah.Copy !req
305. Sir. The Lincoln Battle Group will be
in position sometime tonight.Copy !req
306. They're awaiting your go order to
strike Nasan and the Syrian camps.Copy !req
307. - What?
- We can't wait for Farad.Copy !req
308. The risk of losing
Khalil Nasan is too great.Copy !req
309. We have intel linking Iran to the
martyrs. It's sketchy in spots.Copy !req
310. It's a compelling case. I recommend
you include Iran in the attacks.Copy !req
311. General Alexander went ahead
with plans for these bombings?Copy !req
312. - At your request.
- I said I'd consider it when the time . . .Copy !req
313. . . . was appropriate. I didn't ask—Copy !req
314. He was trying to anticipate
your eventual needs, sir.Copy !req
315. At my urging.Copy !req
316. Mr. President, please.Copy !req
317. Congress, the Joint Chiefs,
the American public, your own staff . . .Copy !req
318. . . . everyone disagrees with your
assessment of the situation.Copy !req
319. Killing Palestinians isn't going
to make us feel safer.Copy !req
320. They'll kill more,
then we'll have to kill more.Copy !req
321. - It's Russian roulette with a loaded gun.
- We can't allow terrorists to murder . . .Copy !req
322. - . . . our citizens without—
- Why would Palestinians murder . . .Copy !req
323. . . . American government officials?
They never have before.Copy !req
324. They're deliberately provoking us, Leo.Copy !req
325. They know that we'll retaliate.
They've studied us.Copy !req
326. - They want us to overreact.
- This isn't overreacting.Copy !req
327. - It's the appropriate, balanced—
- Tell me how this ends, Leo!Copy !req
328. Start something that may have
repercussions on American . . .Copy !req
329. . . . foreign policy for decades,
but you don't know how it ends!Copy !req
330. We don't always know how it ends!Copy !req
331. The Lincoln will be in position in a
few hours, and then you are going . . .Copy !req
332. . . .to have to give the go-ahead
for the bombings.Copy !req
333. Or what?Copy !req
334. Let me know when Chairman Farad
calls. I'll be in the residence.Copy !req
335. Thank you, Mr. President.Copy !req
336. It's late.Copy !req
337. I'm sorry. Did I wake you?Copy !req
338. No.Copy !req
339. Still nothing?Copy !req
340. Maybe I'm wrong.Copy !req
341. - Maybe.
- You think so?Copy !req
342. - Am I that predictable now?
- You were always that predictable.Copy !req
343. I could do what they want, make
everyone feel better for a few days.Copy !req
344. Some nice aerial shots of things blowing
up on CNN, a few charred bodies.Copy !req
345. - It would be a hell of a lot easier.
- You want easier?Copy !req
346. I want Fitz to walk through
my door tomorrow . . .Copy !req
347. . . . and give me a hard time
about the Celtics.Copy !req
348. You think they got a chance this year?Copy !req
349. - Who?
- Celtics.Copy !req
350. They still need a big man
and a reliable point guard, but . . .Copy !req
351. - . . . they might make a run for it.
- For a moment there, I was worried.Copy !req
352. Hey.Copy !req
353. I got the last two packages of peanut
butter crackers out of the machine.Copy !req
354. It was that
or an old egg salad sandwich.Copy !req
355. - Thought you went home.
- Pass up the 16th Street smorgasbord?Copy !req
356. I wouldn't have been able
to sleep anyway.Copy !req
357. I'm catching up on some work.Copy !req
358. You're gonna need some water.
Maybe a fire hose.Copy !req
359. Or a local reservoir.Copy !req
360. How the hell do we always get
dragged into these things?Copy !req
361. Why can't I sit on my patio, barbecue
chicken and drink a Diet Dr. Pepper?Copy !req
362. - You gonna finish those?
- Be my guest.Copy !req
363. You ever think:Copy !req
364. "If we're in charge, this country's
in a hell of a lot of trouble"?Copy !req
365. - Till I spend time with the other guys.
- Got a phone to Farad.Copy !req
366. - The president's talking to him now.
- I'm afraid that's unacceptable.Copy !req
367. If your security forces were
to capture Nasan, we want him . . .Copy !req
368. - . . . turned over to us.
- The crime was committed...Copy !req
369. - ... in the Palestinian territories.
- Territories aren't a state.Copy !req
370. Trying Nasan in an American court
shows there are other means . . .Copy !req
371. . . . of seeking justice
than Israeli missile strikes.Copy !req
372. This point can also be made
in Palestinian court.Copy !req
373. What Palestinian court? It's three men
with loaded pistols and a Magic 8 ball.Copy !req
374. Mr. Chairman, capturing Nasan
and turning him over to us . . .Copy !req
375. . . . would demonstrate to the Israelis
and the world you're tough on terror.Copy !req
376. You fight for the Palestinian cause
and don't randomly attack Americans.Copy !req
377. It would demonstrate that
the Palestinians are incapable...Copy !req
378. - ... of administrating justice themselves.
- Americans were killed, chairman.Copy !req
379. This falls under our jurisdiction.Copy !req
380. Even if you were to detain Nasan,
we would ask that you extradite him.Copy !req
381. Mr. Chairman.Copy !req
382. These are difficult questions.Copy !req
383. Perhaps they should be a topic of
discussion of our talks at Camp David.Copy !req
384. There won't be any talks if Khalil Nasan
isn't delivered into U.S. custody.Copy !req
385. Mr. President, that makes
things very difficult.Copy !req
386. - Perhaps, then, Mr. President...
- Sorry.Copy !req
387. we will not be able to meet.Copy !req
388. Mr. Chairman, if your security forces
were to detain Nasan . . .Copy !req
389. . . . and then turn him over
to us secretly . . .Copy !req
390. . . . we'd be happy to say that he was
apprehended by the FBI.Copy !req
391. Mr. Chairman?Copy !req
392. I will discuss it with members
of my government.Copy !req
393. - And you'll seriously consider it?
- I will discuss it.Copy !req
394. - Thank you for your time, Mr. Chairman.
- Thank you, Mr. President.Copy !req
395. - Was that a yes or a no?
- "Members of my government"?Copy !req
396. He was talking about two
sock puppets and a Beanie Baby.Copy !req
397. - He won't do it.
- He was considering it.Copy !req
398. He was distracted, looking up Nasan's
number to warn him to get out of Gaza.Copy !req
399. There's no evidence
linking Nasan to Farad.Copy !req
400. - We haven't interrogated him yet.
- Now all Palestinians are terrorists?Copy !req
401. - if the kaffiyeh fits.
- That's enough.Copy !req
402. Thank you, everybody.
Go home. Try to get some sleep.Copy !req
403. Thank you, Mr. President.Copy !req
404. - Now what?
- We wait.Copy !req
405. - The Lincoln Battle Group is almost—
- We wait, Leo.Copy !req
406. So you fly halfway around the world
on a moment's notice . . .Copy !req
407. . . .to rush to a woman's bedside
when the White House is facing off . . .Copy !req
408. . . .a Biblical apocalypse.Copy !req
409. - We work together.
- Past dalliance gone bad . . .Copy !req
410. . . . or tragically unconsummated love
kept at arm's length by . . .Copy !req
411. . . . Puritanical American
workplace ethics?Copy !req
412. What the hell are you talking about?Copy !req
413. There was this girl when I was 16,
no, 17.Copy !req
414. This when you were a bagman
for the IRA?Copy !req
415. She was mad about me.
Worshipped me, really.Copy !req
416. And I liked her.Copy !req
417. But I was off to university in Dublin,
and she was gonna stay in Belfast . . .Copy !req
418. - . . . working in her dad's shop.
- This is taking too long.Copy !req
419. - Isn't this taking too long?
- But she wrote to me . . .Copy !req
420. . . . every single day.
And she called on the weekends . . .Copy !req
421. . . . and she was always there.Copy !req
422. And I took her for granted, you know?Copy !req
423. Mr. Lyman.Copy !req
424. - How's she doing?
- We encountered a few difficulties . . .Copy !req
425. . . . during the procedure.
She lost a lot of blood.Copy !req
426. We had to transfuse and call in
a vascular surgeon to repair it.Copy !req
427. - Is she gonna be all right?
- She's still unconscious.Copy !req
428. When she's stable
we'll send her for an MRI.Copy !req
429. Between the anemia
and low blood pressure . . .Copy !req
430. . . . she may have suffered
hypoxic brain injury.Copy !req
431. Decreased oxygen delivery
can result in brain damage.Copy !req
432. They had to do some sort of operation,
and there were complications.Copy !req
433. I spoke to Josh. He's pretty upset.Copy !req
434. - Can you get me Donna's parents?
- Yes, sir.Copy !req
435. We've heard nothing from
Chairman Farad in over seven hours.Copy !req
436. General Alexander's waiting
in the Sit Room.Copy !req
437. The Lincoln Carrier Group is in place.Copy !req
438. - Excuse me, Mr. President.
- What do you need, George?Copy !req
439. Our FBI team in Gaza was contacted
by the Palestinian security forces.Copy !req
440. They have Khalil Nasan in custody,
and they'd like to turn him over to us.Copy !req
441. - Did it pass?
- House was 317 to 116.Copy !req
442. Senate 62 to 37.Copy !req
443. "Whereas acts of treacherous,
unprovoked violence have been . . .Copy !req
444. - . . . committed against U.S. citizens—"
- Skip to the parts that will piss me off.Copy !req
445. That's gonna be all of it.Copy !req
446. "Whereas inaction further threatens the
national security of these United States . . .Copy !req
447. . . . and there can be no peace in the
Middle East if such acts are . . .Copy !req
448. . . . sanctioned and committed. Whereas
the president has both the authority . . .Copy !req
449. . . . and the imperative to address and
prevent acts of terror against the U.S. "Copy !req
450. The president has the authority
and the imperative?Copy !req
451. - That doesn't sound bad.
- The Oxford Debating Society's way . . .Copy !req
452. . . . of telling the president to get off his
ass, do something, you feckless wimp.Copy !req
453. - Is she here?
- Yes. The prime minister's waiting . . .Copy !req
454. - . . .in Tel Aviv.
- It passed?Copy !req
455. - Yes, sir.
- How many Democrats against us?Copy !req
456. - Too many.
- But we swept the Vermont delegation.Copy !req
457. - Right?
- Actually, no.Copy !req
458. - "The authority and the imperative"?
- Yes, sir.Copy !req
459. They want peace, but I have
to blow something up?Copy !req
460. They're willing to haggle
on the peace part.Copy !req
461. That usually worked in the past.
How's my tie?Copy !req
462. - I would've worn the blue.
- Get the prime minister on the phone.Copy !req
463. Ms. Harper, head on in
and look unhappy.Copy !req
464. Toby, I want you to call every Democrat
that supported this resolution and say . . .Copy !req
465. . . . if they ever want
White House support . . .Copy !req
466. . . . for another rubber-chicken
fundraiser . . .Copy !req
467. . . . they'd better start singing a rousing
chorus of "Hail to the Chief. "Copy !req
468. Leo, head down to the Sit Room and
tell the generals to keep their pistols . . .Copy !req
469. . . .in their pockets for the time being.Copy !req
470. You don't believe in this, Leo,
and they're not gonna wanna do it.Copy !req
471. I can't have them picking up any
signals from you that we disagree.Copy !req
472. No, sir.Copy !req
473. So Fields voted for it?Copy !req
474. Yeah, and Blinken,
Worthington, Goffman.Copy !req
475. - Wow, Goffman?
- Sue Bordan's on here too.Copy !req
476. She's in a tough race...Copy !req
477. with a knuckle-dragging D A
from Lake Forest.Copy !req
478. - Donna any better?
- You on with Josh?Copy !req
479. They can't tell if there's neurological
damage for a couple days.Copy !req
480. - How is she?
- They won't know for a couple days.Copy !req
481. Sir.Copy !req
482. Oh, God, really? I don't have
a pacemaker or anything.Copy !req
483. - Turn it off now, sir.
- Okay, sure, lieutenant.Copy !req
484. - Who are you talking to?
- Nurse Ratched. I gotta go.Copy !req
485. I'll call back in a couple hours.Copy !req
486. The Palestinian Authority
has detained Khalil Nasan . . .Copy !req
487. . . . and is prepared to turn him
over to our FBI.Copy !req
488. Farad's promised to turn over
terrorists before.Copy !req
489. It's a show of good faith
on Chairman Farad's part.Copy !req
490. An example of his renewed willingness
to address the peace process.Copy !req
491. Mr. Prime Minister . . .Copy !req
492. . . . the territories are undermining your
legitimacy as a modern democracy . . .Copy !req
493. . . . and sapping your moral authority
in the eyes of the world.Copy !req
494. Farad is beholden to the very forces
that wish to push us back into the sea.Copy !req
495. It's not a negotiating point for him.Copy !req
496. It's a religious and moral imperative
to take back all of Israel for Palestine.Copy !req
497. Sir, you cannot hold yourself out
as the Promised Land . . .Copy !req
498. . . . while occupying the territories
and oppressing other peoples.Copy !req
499. Our Arab citizens enjoy
the most freedoms of any Arabs...Copy !req
500. in the Middle East.
The Palestinians are oppressed...Copy !req
501. as opposed to whom?
We don't stone women who refuse...Copy !req
502. - ... to wear headscarves in Tel Aviv.
- Sir, Chairman Farad's seen . . .Copy !req
503. . . .you're almost done building
the fence in the West Bank . . .Copy !req
504. . . . he'll lose half the Jordan Valley
to settlement.Copy !req
505. If you agree to come to a summit
with Farad . . .Copy !req
506. . . . and he still refuses
to reach an agreement . . .Copy !req
507. . . . the United States is willing
to publicly support Israeli actions . . .Copy !req
508. . . .to secure your homeland.
Including the building of the fence.Copy !req
509. Eli, why not sit down and talk again?Copy !req
510. If Farad turns over
this terrorist to you...Copy !req
511. I will take the offer to my cabinet.Copy !req
512. - Thank you, Mr. Prime Minister.
- Good afternoon, Mr. President.Copy !req
513. - Madame Ambassador.
- Mr. President.Copy !req
514. I think we got ourselves a ball game.Copy !req
515. Have you ever been
to NSF Thurmont before?Copy !req
516. Camp David? No. No, I haven't.Copy !req
517. - Ever been on Marine One?
- No. No, I haven't.Copy !req
518. - Like helicopters?
- No, not really. I get airsick.Copy !req
519. Okay. You can sit with Will.Copy !req
520. I want you to stay here, hold down the
fort. I'll call you when things heat up.Copy !req
521. Of course, Mr. President.Copy !req
522. - You still think this is a mistake.
- Yes, sir. I do.Copy !req
523. As soon as the Palestinian delegation
is on the ground at Andrews . . .Copy !req
524. - . . . give Alexander the go.
- Sir?Copy !req
525. Tell the general to hit the Ein Hawa
camp near Damascus.Copy !req
526. - What about Iran?
- I've looked at the intel file.Copy !req
527. I'm still not convinced.
You get something more . . .Copy !req
528. - . . .show it to me and we'll discuss it.
- Thank you, Mr. President.Copy !req
529. - Will Bailey.
- You guys do s 'mores...Copy !req
530. - ... and strategic planning last night?
- Missiles and marshmallows.Copy !req
531. President loves a campfire.
I should warn you, his horror stories . . .Copy !req
532. - . . . are about the Crusades.
- Well, so is the morning paper.Copy !req
533. The Palestinians are wheels up.Copy !req
534. - They do s 'mores?
- Great way to stop the summit...Copy !req
535. . . . before it starts. Food with the
consistency of industrial sealant.Copy !req
536. - Leo's looking for you.
- Get him up at Camp David.Copy !req
537. He's not at Camp David.
He's in his office.Copy !req
538. I thought you went with the president.Copy !req
539. Couple of loose ends. We want
the press corps down here.Copy !req
540. Not the Cozy Inn?Copy !req
541. He doesn't want
either side negotiating in print.Copy !req
542. - Walk them through a daily schedule.
- No pool spread?Copy !req
543. They go to Camp David, all they're
gonna see are tinted windows . . .Copy !req
544. . . . and enough furrowed brows
to start a Yiddish theater group.Copy !req
545. They're ready for you.Copy !req
546. We'll have an announcement
in a couple of hours.Copy !req
547. - What announcement?
- I'll find you when it's time.Copy !req
548. - How far?
- I only have lungs for five miles.Copy !req
549. Buy you a carton of Luckys.
You can stay in bed next time.Copy !req
550. So much for permanent press.Copy !req
551. Prep group's about to start up
on the lower porch.Copy !req
552. Mr. President.Copy !req
553. They're on their way.Copy !req
554. Did you come to a consensus?Copy !req
555. Toby would give half his salary
for a piece of asphalt he could use . . .Copy !req
556. - . . .to pummel the State Department.
- Give me that.Copy !req
557. - What's the sticking point?
- What isn't? If we can't agree . . .Copy !req
558. - . . .how do we expect them to?
- The Israelis just cleared our air space.Copy !req
559. Okay.Copy !req
560. Ten hut.Copy !req
561. Go get them, Cassius.Copy !req
562. - Mr. Prime Minister, welcome.
- Mr. President.Copy !req
563. - Maya, good to see you again.
- Mr. President.Copy !req
564. Madame Galit.Copy !req
565. - Defense Minister Mazar.
- Where are we, general?Copy !req
566. Special Forces are in place to paint
the target. The planes are on the deck.Copy !req
567. TVD are in place. Tomcat 215,
you are good to go.Copy !req
568. Roger, Tomcat 215.Copy !req
569. - Speed wind.
- Copy that.Copy !req
570. First wave includes radar jamming
Prowlers, a Hawkeye . . .Copy !req
571. - . . .in-flight refueling and an S3 Viking.
- How long to the targets?Copy !req
572. They're at mach 1.7. They'll be
dropping ordinance in 90 minutes.Copy !req
573. - Round two.
- Ten hut.Copy !req
574. Prime Minister Mukarat.
Thank you so much for coming.Copy !req
575. - My pleasure.
- It's a pleasure to meet you, sir.Copy !req
576. - Chairman Farad, welcome.
- Mr. President.Copy !req
577. - Chairman.
- Please join us here.Copy !req
578. They're 30 minutes out, sir.
Do we have the go?Copy !req
579. That's a go.
You going up to Camp David later?Copy !req
580. Maybe tomorrow.Copy !req
581. Sir, I hope the president knows
how lucky he is to have you.Copy !req
582. Ladies and gentlemen,
thank you for coming.Copy !req
583. Fleeing his headquarters in Khan
Unis, Nasan was apprehended...Copy !req
584. by FBI agents working
with Israel defense forces...Copy !req
585. as he attempted to cross
into Israel yesterday.Copy !req
586. He's the suspect in the terrorist
bombings of four U.S. citizens...Copy !req
587. including two congressmen and the
retired chairman of the Joint Chiefs.Copy !req
588. Nasan is a long-time supporter
of Hamas, the Khanjari Martyrs...Copy !req
589. and its military splinter wing,
"Light of Abudaka. "Copy !req
590. Nasan, a.k.a. Uzma Khalil,
and Shahab Khalil...Copy !req
591. Josh.Copy !req
592. is wanted for a 2002 car bombing
in Nazarene, and a 1999 bombing.Copy !req
593. Josh.Copy !req
594. Josh.Copy !req
595. Hey.Copy !req
596. You're awake.Copy !req
597. Your mom is here.Copy !req
598. Colin took her downstairs for some . . .Copy !req
599. . . .I don't know, for some
schnitzel or something.Copy !req
600. You're still here.Copy !req
601. Yeah.Copy !req
602. I'm still here.Copy !req
