AFTER ISIS BEHEADS IN LIBYA. PLUS, A DOUBLE GAIN. WHAT EGYPT HAS TO SAY ABOUT THE OBAMA

ADMINISTRATION WAR ON TERROR. A SAFE HAVEN. CHRISTIANS FIND REFUGE IN ISRAEL.

>> HELLO, WELCOME TO THIS EDITION OF JERUSALEM DATELINE. AFTER THE BRUTAL BUTCHER OF ISIS

AND MEANTIME THE UNITED STATES WILL FIGURE OUT HOW TO TAKE ON THE ISLAMIC RADICALS.

>> HOURS AFTER THE RELEASE OF THE VIDEO SHOWING THE MASS BE HEADING OF THE HOSTAGES. THEY

CLAIM LOYALTY TO ISIS AND IDENTIFY THEMSELVES AS THE ISLAMIC ESTATE GROUP.

>> WHICH CONTROLS ABOUT A THIRD OF SYRIA AND IRAQ HAVE NOW ESTABLISHED IN NORTH AFRICA

NEAR ITALY. >> ONE MAKES A DIRECT REFERENCE TO THAT POSSIBILITY

AND PLANS TO CONQUER ROME AND RELATIVE AND FRIENDS OF THE HOSTAGES SAY THEY WERE TARGETED

BECAUSE THEY WERE CHRISTIANS ANDAL ASSISI FORMER CHIEF. HE'S A COLLEGE OF THE EGYPTIAN

HOSTAGES IN LIBYA. HE SAYS THEY ARE TARGETING US BECAUSE WE VOTED FOR ASSISI AND WE ARE

CHRISTIANS AND THE CHRISTIANS ARE SONS OF AL ASSISI. IF THEY WOULDN'T HAVE VOTED, HE

WOULDN'T HAVE WON THE ELECTION. HE RESPONDS IN

THE SPREAD OF ISIS IS SPREADING IN DIFFERENT COUNTRIES.

>> LIKE IN NIGERIA, THE TARGET, THESE GROUPS FIND

THEY THRIVE. >> THIS LATEST ATROCITY AS CONGRESS DEBATES

PRESIDENT OBAMA WAR ON ISIS. IT'S NOT TRULY STRONG ENOUGH TO BATTLE ISIS WHICH IS EXTENDING

BEYOND IRAQ AND SYRIA. THE SECRETARY FORMED THAT ISIS IS A STRENGTH IN THE MIDDLE EAST.

>> WE ARE DEALING WITH AN ENEMY THAT IS IN CONTROL AND WELL ARMED. ISIS IS A WHOLE NEW

CHAPTER IN TERMS OF THE TERRORIST THREAT TO THAT AREA AND TO OUR COUNTRY.

>> MARK MARTIN, CBN NEWS. >> EGYPT IS NOW ON THE FRONT LINE OF THE BATTLE

AGAINST ISIS. SOME OF IT'S LEADERS ARE MAKING NEW ACCUSATIONS ABOUT THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION

WAR ON TERROR. THEY SAY THE U.S. CAMPAIGN IS A DOUBLE GAME FIGHTING TERRORIST ABROAD

WHILE MEETING THEM AT HOME. THIS WHITE HOW THE MEETING BETWEEN PRESIDENT OBAMA AND MUSLIM

LEADERS SENT SHOCK WAVES THROUGH THE MIDDLE EAST SPECIFICALLY ISRAEL AND EGYPT. THE CAUSE

OF THE MEETING LEADING AT LEAST REPRESENTED GROUPS WERE TIED TO THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD

AND TRYING TO CONVINCE THE US TO REMOVE HAM AS FROM THE TERRORIST GROUP LIST AND PUT ISRAEL

ON IT. ONE SHOWS GIVING A MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD SALUTE IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING.

>> FOUNDED IN EGYPT IN 1928 THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD SPAWNED MANY TERRORIST ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDING

HAMAS. THE WHITE HOUSE REFUSES TO DESIGNATE THE GROUP AS A TERRORIST ENTITY.

>> AN ORGANIZATION LIKE AL QAIDA, ISIS AND OTHERS, THEY BASE THEIR BEHAVIOR ON THE TEACHINGS

OF THE MUSLIM >> THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD ISSUED THIS DECLARATION.

"IT IS IN INCUMBENT WHERE WE RECALL THE MEANINGS OF JIHAD AND PREPARE OURSELVES, OUR WIVES,

SONS, DAUGHTERS AND WHOEVER MARCHED ON OUR PATH TO A LONG UNCOMPROMISING FIGHT AND WE

ASK FOR MARTYRDOM." >>

AMERICA IS THE ULTIMATE ENEMY. WHY? NOT BECAUSE IT AMERICA, BECAUSE IT'S AMERICA IS THE SYMBOL

OF DEMOCRACY AND DEMOCRACY IS A TOTAL CONTRADICTION TO ISLAM.

>> EGYPT, A STRATEGIC U.S. ALLEY CONDEMN THE WASHINGTON MEETINGS.

>> IN AN ACTIVE FACILITY WITH EGYPT LIKE SAUDI ARABIA.

>> EGYPTIAN COMMENTED PLAYING A DOUBLE GAME ON ITS WAR AGAINST TERROR.

>> THE U.S. CONTINUES TO JEOPARDIZE EGYPT WITH THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD. THE U.S. POLICY

APPEARS TO BE DECEIVES AND UNRELIABLE. >> THE U.S. ADMINISTRATION SAYS IT IS COMBATTING

THESE GROUPS AT WHILE SUPPORTING THEM ABROAD BECAUSE IT SHOWS THAT THE WHITE HOUSE HAS

NOT ABANDONED THEM. THE TERRORIST AMONG THE BROTHERHOOD, A REVELATION THE U.S. NEEDS TO

REACH AS WELL. >> THE PEOPLE THAT BELONG TO TERRORIST SLEEPER

CELLS. THE SECURITY OFFICIALS SAY 400 SUSPECTS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED. ONE OF THE MAIN AUTHORITIES

IS HOW TO PREVENT DISGRUNTLED CRIMINALS AND FROM BEING RADICALIZED.

>> THEY HAVE BEEN BELIEVED TO BE RADICALIZED IN JAIL. IN THE AFTERMATH OF THAT DEADLY SHOOTING,

PRIME MINISTER IS ENCOURAGING THE JEWS TO GO TO ISRAEL. ONE WORKING AS SECURITY FOR

BAT MITZVAH. >> UP NEXT, A GROWING TREND IN THE JEWISH

STATE. MORE AND MORE CHRISTIANS ENLISTING IN THE DEFENSE FORCE. FIND OUT WHY WHEN WE

COME BACK. >> CHRISTIANS ACROSS THE MIDDLE EAST ARE FLEEING

MUSLIM PERSECUTION. ONE AREA IS PROVIDING A SAFE HAVEN FOR CHRISTIANS. IT IS ISRAEL

AND TO RECLAIM A HIDDEN HERITAGE. GREEK ORTHODOX PRIEST FATHER GABRIEL LIVES IN THE NORTHERN

ISRAELI CITY OF NAZARETH. IT'S THE LARGEST CHRISTIAN CITY IN ISRAEL.

>> MOST CHRISTIANS IN THE MIDDLE EAST COME FROM CATHOLIC OR ORTHODOX TRADITIONS. WHO

FOUNDED THE CHRISTIAN ISRAELI FORUM IS SO CONTROVERSIAL THAT THE GREEK ORTHODOX CHURCH

THREATENED TO DEFROCK HIM AND MUST PROTECT HIM AROUND THE CLOCK.

>> DESPITE ALL THE THREATS AGAINST ME, I WILL NOT TURN BACK MY WAY. I WILL DIE. I WILL CONTINUE

UNTIL THE END. >> IF GOD IS FOR YOU, WHO CAN BE AGAINST YOU.

>> SAYING HE'S NOT AN ARAB, RECLAIMING HIS HERITAGE AND ENCOURAGING YOUNG CHRISTIANS

TO INTEGRATE INTO ISRAELI SOCIETY. >> YOU ARE ENCOURAGING YOUNG PEOPLE TO SERVE

IN THE ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES. WHY ARE YOU DOING THAT?

>> BECAUSE WE WANT TO PROTECT THE STATE THAT'S PROTECTING US.

>> UNTIL RECENTLY ISRAEL AND THE REST OF THE WORLD CONSIDERED THE MORE THAN 160,000 CHRISTIANS

IN ISRAEL AS ARAB ISRAELIS. BUT HE SAYS THAT IS NOT TRUE.

>> I WAS RAISED AS A CHRISTIAN WITH A CHRISTIAN FAMILY. WENT TO CHURCH EACH SUNDAY, THE OPENING

MASS WAS IN ARABIC AND I WAS VERY ATTACHED TO IT.

>> HE'S CHAIRMAN FOR THE CHRISTIAN SOCIETY IN ISRAEL. MANY BELIEVE HE SPOKE IT.

>> MANY OF YOU WOULD CALL YOU A CHRISTIAN ARAB BUT YOU DON'T AGREE WITH THAT TERMINOLOGY.

>> CHRISTIAN ARABIC IS A FAKE TERMINOLOGY CREATED 100 YEARS AGO BY AN ARABIC THEOLOGY.

WHO INHABITED THIS AREA BY THE 7TH CENTURY. WE PRESERVE OUR NATIONAL IDENTITY FOR 1400

YEARS AND NOW BECAUSE WE ARE FORCED TO SPEAK ARABIC WE ARE FORCED TO BE ARABS, I'M NOT

ARAB. >> NOW REMAIN CHRISTIANS AS AN OFFICIAL MINORITY.

HIS SON BECAME THE FIRST PERSON IN MODERN HISTORY TO BE REGISTERED AS AIRMAN IN THE

REGISTRY. AN IDEA OF RESERVIST WAS AHEAD OF THE CURVE WHEN HE JOINED THE ARMY.

>> YOU JOINED, WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO DO THAT? >> THIS IS MY COUNTRY. I LIVE HERE. THIS IS

THE COUNTRY THAT PROTECT ME. I LIVE HERE IN FREEDOM. IF I COMPARE TO THE MIDDLE EAST AND

THE WAY THEY LIVE, I HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH, I HAVE FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT. I HAVE FREEDOM

IN ANYTHING. >> HOW DID ISRAELI SOLDIERS TREAT YOU?

>> IN THE ARMY WE ARE EQUAL, THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE. >> WHAT ABOUT ARABS, HOW DO THEY TREAT YOU?

>> THEY SAY I BETRAYED THE ARABS AND THE PALESTINIANS AND THEY DON'T ACCEPT YOU AS AN IDENTITY THAT

CAN HAVE A FREEDOM OF WHY YOU ARE CHOICE AND DEPENDENT OF WHICH SIDE TO CHOOSE. THEY WANT

YOU TO BE AN ARAB AND FORCE YOU TO BE AN ARAB AGAINST YOUR WILL.

>> HE SAYS IT'S GREAT FOR YOUNG CHRISTIANS TO JOIN BECAUSE IT HELPS THE COUNTRY.

>> IF YOU JOIN, YOU WILL EAT WITH THEM, LEARN WITH THEM, TALK WITH THEM. THEY WILL KNOW

ABOUT YOUR SIDE OF IDENTITY AND YOU WILL HAVE A BETTER CHANCE TO INTEGRATE INTO THE SOCIETY.

>> THE TREND IS CATCHING ON. IN 1 YEAR, CHRISTIAN ENLISTMENT INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY BUT MANY

ARAB SPEAKING CHRISTIANS HESITATE. NO ONE TOLD CHRISTIANS OF THEIR CONNECTION TO JUDAISM.

>> THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT CHRISTIANITY REALLY COMES FROM JUDAISM. THAT THE RULES

OF CHRISTIANITY ARE ALSO FROM THIS LAND. IF THE JEWS WILL LEAVE THE LAND OF ISRAEL, THERE

WILL NOT BE CHRISTIANS HERE. >> THERE ARE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THROUGHOUT

THE WORLD THAT WILL SEE THIS. CHRISTIANS, WOULD YOU WANT THESE PEOPLE THAT SEE THIS

TO PRAY FOR YOU? >> I WANT THEM TO PRAY FOR US, FOR THEIR BROTHERS,

THE CHRISTIANS HERE, FOR SUCCESS OF THE PROCESS OF INTEGRATION BECAUSE IF WE REACH THIS INTEGRATION,

THERE WILL BE TRUE LOVE AND WE WILL LIVE IN PEACE WITH OUR NEIGHBORS HERE IN THE STATE

OF ISRAEL. TOGETHER WITH THE JEWS WE WILL PROTECT THE LAND OF ISRAEL.

>> SCOTT ROSS, IN NAZARETH. >> WE SIT DOWN WITH A POTENTIAL U.S. CANDIDATE

WITH THE DANGERS OF IRAN AND OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD RIGHT AFTER THIS.

>> ISRAEL I PRIME MINISTER SAYS IT'S HIS DUTY TO ATTEND THE JOINT SESSION OF CONGRESS ABOUT

IRAN. MEETING IN JERUSALEM, CALLED IRAN THE NUCLEAR WEAPON THE MOST OPEN SECURITY CONDITION

IN THE WORLD. THE PLAYERS ARE NEGOTIATING WITH IRAN OVER IT'S NUCLEAR PROGRAM. HE'S

BEEN AT ODDS WITH THE WHITE HOUSE FOR WEEKS OVER THE INVITATION TO ADDRESS THE U.S. CONGRESS.

HIS SPEECH IS POLITICALLY MOTIVATED 2 WEEKS BEFORE THE GENERAL ELECTIONS. BUT HE RESPONDED

TO CRITICISM WITH THREE QUESTIONS SAYING THE VERY SURVIVAL OF HIS COUNTRY IS AT STAKE.

>> WHY CONGRESS, WHY WASHINGTON, WHY NOW? BECAUSE OF THE GRAVE DANGERS POSED BY THE

DEAL ON THE TABLE RIGHT NOW. I DON'T SEE THIS ISSUE IN PARTISAN TERMS. THE SURVIVAL OF ISRAEL

IS NOT A PARTISAN ISSUE. IT CONCERNS EVERYONE. >> HE SAID TO SPEAK TO CONGRESS ON MARCH 3RDRD.

>> FORMER US PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE SPOKE ON A VARIETY OF ISSUES ON THE UPCOMING SPEECH

TO THE U.S. CONGRESS. >> GOVERNOR, THANKS FOR JOINING US ONCE AGAIN.

YOU TALKED EARLIER ABOUT IRAN EARLIER AND COMPARING IT TO WHEN YOU USED TO BE A KID.

WHAT WAS THAT ANALOGY? >> RATTLE SNAKES. YOU DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT

GOING TO BITE YOU, YOU DON'T FEED IT. IF THE RATTLE SNAKE GETS HIS WAY, HE'S GOING TO BITE

YOU. THAT'S HIS NATURE. WE ARE NAIVE IF WE THINK IRAN CAN BE TAMED. THEIR GOVERNMENT

CANNOT BE TAMED. THEY WILL DESTROY ISRAEL AND WIPE IT OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH. THEY

HAVE ABUSED THEIR OWN PEOPLE, THEY HAVE SHOT WOMEN IN THE STREET WHO DARE TO POSE THEM

AND WANT TO BRING A VOTE TO THE PEOPLE. THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE THAT IT IS THEIR DUTY

AND THEY BELIEVE CHARGED BY GOD TO KILL EVERYBODY WHO DOESN'T AGREE WITH THEIR RADICAL FORM

OF THEIR RELIGION. THAT'S AN IRRATIONAL UNREASONABLE WORLD VIEW.

>> IRAN OBVIOUSLY POSSESS A MAJOR EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO ISRAEL BUT YOU SAY IT ALSO REPRESENTS

A THREAT TO AMERICA. WHAT DO YOU SAY TO AMERICANS ABOUT THAT?

>> A LOT OF AMERICANS DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT ISRAEL IS THE CANNERY IN THE COAL MINE.

>> THE MINERS WOULD TAKE THE CANNERY INTO THE COAL MINE. BIRDS ARE VERY SENSITIVE TO

ANY TOXIC GAS, IF THEY TOOK THE CANNERY DOWN TO THE COAL MINE AND THE CANNERY DIED, THEY

HAD ONLY MINUTES TO GET OUT. THEIR LUNGS ARE MORE CAPABLE THAN THE BIRD, BUT THEY ARE GOING

TO DIE BECAUSE THERE IS NOXIOUS GASES IN THAT COAL MINE. WHEN I SAY THE CANNERY IS IN THE

COAL MINE. WHATEVER HAPPENS IN ISRAEL IS THE WARM UP FOR WHAT'S INTENDED FOR THE UNITED

STATES. THEY SAY ISRAEL IS THE LITTLE SATAN BUT AMERICA IS THE BIG SATAN. HOW DO WE NOT

UNDERSTAND THE ULTIMATE TARGET IS ISRAEL. WHAT HAPPENS TO ISRAEL IS TRULY THE CANNERY

IN THE COAL MINE FOR WHAT'S NEXT FOR US. >> WHAT WOULD YOU SAY ABOUT THE DEADLINE FOR

THE IRAN NUCLEAR NEGOTIATION INCLUDING THE U.S.?

>> IRAN HAS NEVER BEEN TRUSTWORTHY ON ANY OF IT'S DEALING, I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY BELIEVE

THE ROAD TO DAMASCUS IS SERIOUS. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN SOME AWAKENING THAT WE WANT TO

PLAY NICE. WE ARE NOT GOING TO ABUSE PEOPLE, WE ARE NOT GOING TO FUND TERRORISM. THIS IS

WHAT THEY DO. >> THERE IS A LOT OF CONTROVERSY IN ISRAEL

AND THE UNITED STATES ABOUT THE SPEECH. WHAT'S YOUR POSITION ON HIS SPEECH?

>> OF COURSE HE SHOULD MAKE IT BECAUSE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT TO HEAR WHAT HE HAS TO

SAY. HIS PERSPECTIVE IS A VERY IMPORTANT ONE BECAUSE ISRAEL IS VERY CLOSE TO THE THREAT

THAT THEY POSE AND WHAT THEY ARTICULATED. WHAT'S IMPORTANT IS WE STAND WITH OUR ALLY

AND LET THE WORLD KNOW THAT WE ARE SHOULDER FOR SHOULDER AND STAND FOR THE SAME THING.

WHILE HE'S HERE, LET'S INVITE HIM TO THE WHITE HOUSE AND HAVE HIM FOR LUNCH AND LET THE WORLD

SEE THERE ARE BIGGER THINGS THAT WHATEVER PERSONALITY CONFLICTS THERE MAY BE. THAT'S

WHAT I THINK SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED. >> GOVERNOR, THANKS VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME.

>> THANK YOU. APPRECIATE IT. >> GIVING AWAY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS EACH YEAR.

THE LEGACY OF A GRANDMOTHER THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.

>>> WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU HAD TO GIVE AWAY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS EVERY YEAR. THAT'S WHAT

1 PERSON HAD TO DECIDE WHEN HIS WEALTHY GRANDMOTHER PASSED AWAY AND NOW HE'S TAKEN AROUND THE

WORLD AND NOW TO ISRAEL. >> UNTIL HE VISITED THIS REHAB CENTER FOR

WOUNDED ISRAELI SOLDIERS. >> THAT WAS INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT. THEY MADE

IT LOOK SO EASY. >> ONE OF THE LARGEST FOUNDATIONS OF THE WORLD

THE LEONA HELMSLEY CHARITABLE TRUST. THEY DON'T TO MILLIONS OF PLACES AROUND THE WORLD.

HE BUILT A HOTEL AND REAL ESTATE EMPIRE ESTIMATED AT $6 BILLION. SHE OWNED THE EMPIRE STATE

BUILDING AND AS PUT MILDLY A DIFFICULT BOSS. HER GRANDSON NEVER EXPECTED. ASKED ME 10 YEARS

AGO WOULD I BE HERE IN ISRAEL, NEVER IN MY LIFE. IF YOU KNEW I WAS GOING TO BE HELPING

PEOPLE, I WOULD NEVER BELIEVE IT IN A MILLION YEARS. THIS IS TRULY A BLESSING TO BE HERE.

>> THEY SUPPORT A NUMBER OF PROJECTS IN ISRAEL INCLUDING ONE OF THE WORLD'S LEADING BRAIN

RESEARCH CENTERS. FELLOW TRUSTEES FRANK FIELD SAYS IT'S ALWAYS TIMELY.

>> EVERY TIME IS AN IMPORTANT TIME. WHENEVER NOW IS, NOW IS THE MOST IMPORTANT TIME. TOMORROW

WILL BE THE MOST IMPORTANT TIME EVEN MORE IMPORTANT THAN TODAY. WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT

ISRAEL, A FLOWER FLOURISHING IN THIS TSUNAMI WORLD AND IT STILL MANAGES TO FLOURISH, IT'S

A MIRACLE. >> THE WORLD I FEEL DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THAT.

THERE IS SO MUCH WHERE THEY ARE CAUGHT UP ON THE CONFLICTS THAT IS GOING ON IN ISRAEL

AND THERE IS SO MUCH MORE TO ISRAEL THAN JUST THE CONFLICTS. THERE IS WONDERFUL SCIENTIFIC

RESEARCH BEING DONE HERE, WONDERFUL HUMANITARIAN AID GETTING DONE HERE THAT IS NOT GETTING

REPORTED. >> A TERRORIST ATTACK IN TEL AVIV WHILE THE

BORDER INCIDENT PLAYED ALONG IN LEBANON. >> WE HEAR OVER AND OVER AGAIN HOW STRONG

THE PEOPLE ARE AND EVEN AT HORRIBLE TIMES WITH ROCKETS COMING IN, PEOPLE GO ON WITH

THEIR DAILY LIVES. >> WHEN YOU HELP ISRAEL, YOU HELP THE WORLD.

THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE. WHAT THEY DO BENEFITS THE WORLD.

>> THAT'S IT FOR THIS EDITION. I'M CHRIS MITCHELL. SEE YOU NEXT TIME ON JERUSALEM DATELINE.
