did one of the largest recalls in years. >> operations are at a standstill in california. federal regulators recalled 8.7 million pounds of meat sent to retailers in california, florida, illinois and texas. the usda said the company processed diseased and unwell animals. the center was not fully inspected. >> clearly what happened is they were not inspected and they put animals through the system that were unfit and unsound for human consumption. whether the inspectors from not there at the time. whether they were in another part of the plant, the bottom line is that animals that should not be going into the human food supply were utilised. >> when federal inspectors were here last month they recalled nearly 42,000 pounds and after
8:03 pm
that took a look at the procedures. >> usually the combination of good practices in the slauger facility and -- slaughter facility why and government oversight catch those things. clearly something was missed. they were putting animals through a system that shouldn't be utilised and the government inspectors, for whatever reason, didn't catch it at the time. so far there's no reports of anyone becoming ill from the meat. >> most of the time when you hear a recall it's because there has been a positive test for bacteria or, unfortunately, there are people who are sick. it's rare to see a recall because of utilizition of diseased animals. that is not something that you see happen. >> given that the bad meat has been in the food supply, it's not sure how much remains in restaurants or freezers. the u.s. suggests comparing lot

8:06 pm
the gate. while the guards asked them to show them the idea, two or three people came out from the car and it exploded. the guards killed the attackers. >> this is huge. >> the video shows planning and training. he thinks the fighters stole the gear and likely bought some of it on the black mark. >> they are organised and can do complex operations and actors across the world. within a span of four or five, six years, the people learnt to asimate a lot of information. the lesson learnt is don't ignore their competence. >> this is what a u.s. official told al jazeera

8:08 pm
for a deal to keep the afghanistan. u.s. officials are reviewing the propaganda video produced by the taliban about the attack that happened in central kabul, an official says it is not supersing because it has seen in the past that the taliban has tried to attack coalition forces. this is raising new questions about whether afghan security forces are, indeed, performing as coalition forces say they ought to be some eight or nine months before coalition forces are supposed to end combat duty inside afghanistan. questions of whether they are skeptical enough is something that coalition forces and their civilian leaders will discuss in

called a humanitarian breakthrough. it's a victory in a war that left millions of syrians exhausted and desperate for an end. >> that escape from a city under siege comes as a syrian government and the opposition prepare for another round of peace talks. we have more on that from geneva. >> when the first round of the talks got underway the issue of humanitarian access was right at the top of the agenda, when the deal to get aid to homs was discussed. in fact, the mediator lakhdar brahimi said two weeks ago he had a deal. it has taken a lot longer. what happened on the ground is, itself, controversial. the issue was supposed to be a confidence-building measure. it's one issue dividing the two sides as they meet around the table for a second round of talks. the key issue that drids them is
8:12 pm
the -- divide them is the role of president bashar al-assad and his family. that is something on which there is no agreement. the two sides are expected to begin the next round of negotiations tomorrow. >> efforts to seek the release of an american detained hit a road block. an invitation has been rescinded, discussing the detention of kenneth bea. the north voiced objections to joint military drills between the u.s. and the south. they were accused of trying to overthrow the north korean governments. >> 70,000 protesters gathered in ukraine's capital. demonstrators are asking that european union leadership do more to end the crisis. >> protesters in bosnia gathered

8:31 pm
basically maintain - they don't think of themselves as fighting a war against an evil entity, they think of themselves as local boys trying to make good and protect their communities. >> that has not been the case everywhere. last week 12 children were hurt when someone tossed a bomb over a school wall. in tripoli gunmen clashed soldiers, sealing guns and vehicles before getting away. >> on september 11, 2012, an attack on a compound let the u.s. ambassador and two security officers - it left them dead. >> it left questions as to the deteriorating conditions in benghazi. >> it was a boomerang effect and wake-up call. a ground swell of anti-american sentiment coming so quickly.
8:32 pm
it's a stark contrast from sentiments expressed after muammar gaddafi's fall in october 2011, when holes rang high for democracy taking root. with the country's past slow and uncertain some are in place. the security council is scheduled to review the measures. including an arms embargo and others. >> i don't think these have anything to do with anything on the ground. >> an important topic is how finally to unify a country. the next test is due on the 20th. >> libya is violent and unstable. elections in july 2012 created a parliament with few liberal members. the muslim brotherhood earned 20
8:33 pm
out of 200 seats, but many ran and won. some believe they were tricked. the result is political infighting. that helped conservative members. the u.n. security council will re few that. >> i'm joined by a teacher at dicker son's college and exiled by the libyan government and taxes in san antonio, texas. >> what do you make of this current unrest in libya. >> you're asking me? >> yes. please. >> listen to me, i heard what your reporter said. let me clarify something, the
8:34 pm
grenade at the school was committed by outlaws, we are looking for them. we are responsible for army officers, we don't know who they are. this is a big problem. the thugs that come out. this is normal. this is a country with a revolution, ignorant. this is going through a crash course of self governance. they want to see problems like that. it will happen and get better. >> this is acceptable. the violence we are seeing. >> no, no, i'm not saying it's acceptable. no violence is acceptable, but this is expected. this issue here, you have a number of factors that are bringing about much of this violence. the central government yes, it is weak. you look to the east. east doesn't have too much tribal problems. it has problems with the muslim
8:35 pm
brotherhood. libya. they decreased because the united states forgot about libya. syria is the biggest issue. it's not going to be resolved. we need minds to come together to see how to design the problem. maybe we can talk about them later on. the problem can be solved. the violence is an issue which i think will fade away. >> do you agree with the idea that it's part of the revolution, the attacks are not necessarily a result of a government trying to reform a country. >> i teach at george washington university. sure. this is a long, lengthy process.
8:36 pm
decades to begin to build strong institutions of government. in libya when muammar gaddafi fell, he never allowed any tuition to gain enough capability to challenge him. libya, to some extent, was starting from scratch. it lacks the single most important imperative of a national government which is a monopoly on the use of force. every constituency are heavily armed and potentially in combination. it's going to take time. you have to deal with region by region, pocket by pocket. it has a roadmap, getting the new parliament in place. that is going to be a difficult challenge. getting a constitution that much
8:37 pm
like we saw in tunisia, finds a way to be far more inclusive by contrast than what we have seen in egypt. >> i want to find out where we stand in libya. two years after the fall of muammar gaddafi, it is fragile. an interim parliament was elected in 2012, on february 12th libyans will elect an assembly that will right a new constitution. then the new constitution will come in effect, and there's widespread violence, and parts of the country controlled by other parts of the country. let's talk about the new process of writing the constitution. how much stock do you put in this, that this will help the country. >> i think, really, the professor is right too. the bigger problem is that you
8:38 pm
have a political vacuum. you have to build the state. basically it was a great achievement to understand an assembly of 200 members. for the first time. i had demonstrations in the streets. the people don't want the parliament to continue this. this is healthy to me. they are nonviolent. this is healthy. libyans are saying we want you out or a government to help us. we knew them. you are supposed to have 6-7 months to wroot the constitution. i don't believe it should be
8:39 pm
done. in five months. you have to take as much time as we need. as we look at 1951, the constitution was made. it was developed by the greatest minds in the world, american, egyptians, syrians, lebanese. british, french, fantastic. they use libyan input in there. now they are trying to do the reverse. this is stupid in my mind. we should, first of all, we have a constitution. which is modified. it can be modified again. >> we got it. i want to get to other points. there's a lot to discuss. i want to bring up n.a.t.o.'s intervention. they intervened in 2011. they established a no fly zone and supported rebels, western leaders, including president
8:40 pm
obama, promised military action would be assured. no ground troops were used and no u.s. or other n.a.t.o. service members died. the action lasted seven months and cost more than expected. the new government arrived the alliance to stay, to help with the transition to democracy. n.a.t.o. refused. they pulled out within days. i'm curious to know, do you feel like the n.a.t.o. intervention in libya, considering how much violence the country is seeing. that the nato intervention was a success? >> well, the n.a.t.o. intervention achieved the obligation. it was under a u.n. resolution calling for military action to protect the libyan people that happened, as it evolved. n.a.t.o. significantly supported, you know, the national transition council that
8:41 pm
became the interim government after the fall of muammar gaddafi. that was successful. i don't think anyone thought that libya would become self ordering and a stable representative of government. that has not happened. >> it's been a couple of years. how long is it supposed to stage? >> sure. by way of contrast, there was a european and american intervention in bosnia almost 20 years ago. the conflict ended, but you are still very much in the process of trying to stitch that society back together again. this will take decades. perhaps 50 years where you get the - you know, new habits and expectations. the idea that a frack somehows society, tribe am, that they could -- tribe am, that they can
8:42 pm
come together. the habits will have to be learnt. i'm optimistic in the sense that libya has resources, oil exports. >> it has a lot going for it, without question. >> getting to the point where you develop an inclusive civil society. these are not necessarily inherent values. they have to be learnt over time. >> i want to get your final thoughts. i know you are involved with the counter government. how convinced are you that the leaders are on the right path? >> they are not. libya needs a new set of leaders. particularly now. i think they have done their job. i think now in order to bring some stability libya needs help from the outside. perhaps a task force from
8:43 pm
morocco, oman, turkey, jordan that will help the government maintain stability and order. i need a task force made up. it's arab or muslim countries that will hep and establish new elections, because they are needed within five or six months. >> u.n. considering sanctions. thank you both for your time tonight. we appreciate it. >> before we wrap up here are a few key events in the week ahead. on monday the french president visits the united states. syrian peace talks resume in geneva. and janet yellen faces congress and testify on a policy report. >> much-needed rain - will it help to alleviate the drought.
