s hands... >> building the game... >> ...sky's the limit for growing tennis in america. >> and expanding access to play... >> at the end of the day it's about the kids... >> every tuesday night. >> i lived that character. >> go one on one with america's movers and shakers. >> we will be able to see change. >> gripping. inspiring. entertaining. "talk to al jazeera". only on al jazeera america. >> hello this, is al jazeera america. live from new york city. i'm david shuster. just ahead the cyber security failure in washington. accusations after millions of government workers were hacked. we'll look at the hack. for recent college graduates prospects are way up. plus hillary clinton has been warned. objects in the meyer are bigger

than they appear. the fight for the democratic presidential nomination has begun. >> we begin this hour with a go nile from china the country said it was not involved in hacking u.s. government computers and stealing personal information from as many as 4 million federal employees. the obama administration has not formerly blamed china, but the evidence is overwhelming that hack necessary china are linked with one of the largeest thefts of government information data. >> you're right the office of personnel management known as human resource department for the entire federal government,

employees exposed to the attackers and the question the day after it was revealed is who did it. you're right multiple reports point the finger directly at china. while the white house is not agreeing and they're not pointing the finger in public they're not doing anything to lead people away from that conclusion. josh earnest said that the president has confronted china any number of times. there is a history of a big hack to private insurance carrier anthem. they said that china was responsible for that. you'll recall that the u.s. formally accused the chinese military in conjunction with chinese government of hacking in websites. it is up to the white house to determine how much data was

breached and far it goes. they'll look at the entities and the responsible parties. >> there are state actors and in some case there are individuals acting behalf of state and in some cases these are criminal enterprises. the goals of those organizations or individuals is different. in some cases it's simple espionage that governor governmentforeign government is conducting. some companies and some states engage. >> the opm begins to send out notes to all the 4 million people potentially affected. >> in terms of diplomatic channel how is the obama administration responding there to the breach, and what does this all say according to the white house about the u.s. cyber

security. >> they're really playing catch up. the white house would have us know that there is a state of the art program to protect federal computers. it's called einstein, and there has been einstein version one and einstein version two. they are about to unveil unveil. they're about to announce einstein version three. some 75 individuals in the homeland security and elsewhere their security was breached. so they're playing catch up as the federal government against an unseen trying to remain vigilant as the u.s. government spends billions on cyber security trying to keep them out

of federal computers and private entity. >> mike viqueira in washington. thank you very much. later in this hour we'll talk to a scientist about what the hackers may be looking for and what they can conceivably do with all the data. in iraq we learn the passing of one of saddam hussein's most powerful adviser. he died in prison of a heart attack. for decades he was the point of contact for leaders and diplomats trying to deal with the iraqi regime. >> reporter: to many aziz was the face of saddam hussein's regime. he would travel and meet with world leaders. he would defend his boss' boss' policies at every turn.

>> it was the iranians who bomb bombed. it wasn't iraq. >> turiq aziz, a christian came to the baath party in the 1950s. by the time the baath party came to the leadership, he was an already a figure in the party. in the early 1980s he became foreign minister. tasked with strengthen diplomatic relations between baghdad and washington. [ explosion ] >> when saw dam ordered the invasion of kuwait in 1990, aziz had to face the world and condemn the arab leaders for not standing up to the u.s. the u.s. would declare war on iraq. for iraq the results were devastating. the army defeated and the country facing harsh international sanctions.

aziz's loyalty was never shaken and he was named deputy prime minister after the war. he continued to defend saddam's policies and continued to condemn hostility to iraq. in 2003 under the guise of searching for weapons of mass destruction the u.s. invaded. turiq aziz was the ace of spades. in 2003 he turned himself in. and in 2009 he was convicted on two different counts sentenced to 2 years in prison. the next year he was sentenced to death by the iraqi supreme court for the persecution of religious parties. he remained in prison on death row and loyal to saddam until his death. >> pentagon officials said that coalition airstrikes are taking out more than 1,000 isil fighters every month according to an army commander the airstrikes are giving iraqi and

security forces on the ground more time to launch and execute counter attacks. as the u.s. reviews its strategy, one option gaining wider support involves sending in a small number of troops who can help to call and guide airstrikes. but moving spotters to the front lines carries a risk that the pentagon, at least for now is unwilling to take. jamie mcintyre joins us to explain. >> you know, david the u.s.-led air campaign in iraq and syria has been coming under a lot of criticism from all quarters, particularly baghdad and iraqi prime minister hyder hyder al abadi. even john mckane said that the airstrikes could be more effective. briefing reporters by pentagon by telephone from his base in

doha lieutenant general john hesterman insisted that the coalition campaign has in his words, has had a profound affect on the enemy. >> it's not only been effective it's enabled virtually every victory on the battlefield. it has helped ground forces regain territory remove fighters from the battlefield and eliminate the majority of daesh. >> with an increasing number of military experts believe that those airstrikes could be much more effective if they were directed on the ground on the front lines by u.s. forward air controllers. the most recent person to offer that criticism a former u.s. central commander david petraeus who said that he thinks those spotters should be on the ground. but the pentagon is worried about it, and they're worried about it for one reason: casualties. when asked about the need for these jtacs.

the general said that he did not need them for now. they're worried if they put the troops on the ground they have to be on the front lines to call in the airstrikes. they'll have to be protected by other u.s. troops. they believe it's the beginning of shifting from the advise and assist role to full combat role, something that they don't want to do. one pentagon official said that it's not just about avoiding u.s. casualties, it's about the iraqis owning the fight on the ground and the u.s. is worried if it does too much of the fighting and takes too much of the burden off the iraqis they'll never stand up for themselves. >> al jazeera's jamie mcintyre reporting live from the pentagon, thank you. it's the first friday of the month when the government's job release is released. it's the strong one for the month of may. ali velshi is here with more. what does it show? >> we weren't expecting 200,000 new jobs in may.

that's what we got. that's a good number. we saw the unemployment rate tick up .10 of a percent to 5.5%. i think people are getting used to this now. it used to confuse people. wait a second, we added more jobs than unexpected and the unemployment rate went up? this is why i don't like the unemployment rate, i never have. this is the number of people actively looking for a job. what we saw was yet another below of month of good job creation. as people see that they start to get into the job force which means the unemployment rate starts to go up. college grads are getting a--they have a jobless rate right now below the average for the past four years. that's important because it suggests that pay will start to rise. we look at average hourly earnings every month as well, and in may they were up by 2.3% compared to the previous three months and that's the biggest

one-year rise since august of 2013, nearly two years. i tell you david the things that are coming to play here. you remember in the mid person elections we saw a number of states vote to increase their minimum wages. the number of large corporations getting the pressure to increase their wages. walmart is one of them. they're increasing the base pay. in terms of job creation we saw it across the board. business services, construction, healthcare. this is good. a lot of economists saying this is going to be the year why we start to see wage gains. we've still seen largely stagnant wages. that's the take away of a good jobs report and probably the beginning of a year in which we're going to see increased wages. >> i understand that you spoke to the chief economist at the labor department, and put her feet to the fire over a policy priority of the obama administration to trans-pacific partnership. tell bus it. >> heidi sherholtz is the with

the labor department. sometimes it's good to speak with an economist and get away from the politician. the obama administration is very big on the tpp the deal linking 12 people on the pacific rim including the u.s. the biggest free trade removing trade barriers and tariffs. it will be responsible for a third of the world's trade. 40% of economic activity. as you know, the president wants fast track authority from congress congressional republicans largely on the president's side on this one. the president is fighting traditional democratic constituencies like organized labor and environmental groups in his democratic base who say that these deals like nafta hurt jobs and they bring down american standards. this is a fight that the president is in with his own party. i was pressing heidi sherhotz to explain why if we're getting into 11 other countries nine of

which have lower manufacturering wages than the united states does why don't we think we'll lose jobs to these countries. the administration hold it is we get better trade and more export we'll create nor jobs. it has yet to be seen. >> what else is coming up on target. >> we have a big show tonight. we're talking with sheila baer a fierce critic of the banks. she has always said that some banks should have been allowed to fail. she'll talk about where we are in the recession because we didn't allow so many of them to fail. >> that's ali velshi on target right here on al jazeera america. hundreds of amtrak passengers had to be evacuated this afternoon when their chicago-bound train collided in welcoming ton, illinois. the truck's trailer was obstructing the track. the train left san antonio texas, yesterday. nobody on board was hurt. in china the wake of a cruise ship accident monday when

the vessel capsized the authorities have now called off the search for survivors. the officials say that at this point there was no possibility of finding anybody alive. the ship, which may contain the bodies of more than 340 people is being hoisted out of the water as the angle gish for families victims drags on. adrian brown is in china with the latest. >> the three-day recovery effort yielded little. so the only option to remove bodies was to try to identify right the eastern star. they would slowly turn the vessel up right. nets were spread around the ship to catch what fell from inside. >> the next step is to make it float on water. also we will search for victims and look for leaking oil. >> the salvage operation began after the government confirmed

on thursday night that it didn't expect to find any more survivors. divers groped through murky water after cutting through the hull searching every cabin on board. the powerful currents of the yangtze have dragged some bodies further down stream. along the river bank volunteers are helping in the grim process of recovery. a task that could go on for many days. there are more than a thousand family members of the missing in the city closest to the accident, and where many local people have been traumatized by the events of the past few days. such spontaneous gotter gathererings would be a call for sorts, but they allowed the candle vigil to go ahead because so many wanted to express their sadness and sorrow. >> we came to pray. we hope that the dead people can leave the world peacefully.

>> we all cried. we're all very sad. it's heartbreaking. i've been taking care of family members for the last few days. >> a city filled with sadness and with so much more to come. adrian brown al jazeera, in southern china. >> there are several reports tonight that a pilot who crashed a germanwings plane into into into the french alps this year contacted dozens of doctors before the crash. he was seeking advice on an undisclosed ailment. he crashed the plane into the alps killing all on board. commercial airlines could be forced to deal with emission standards. it would be the obama administration the latest move to battle the clean air act. but the chain will not be very cheap. john terrett is in washington. what kind of changes is the obama administration talking about? >> hey david the obama

administration has already done it for car makers and truckers and even power stations, and now it is about to put the airline industry on notice. once it does that you can bet your bottom dollar the tougher restrictions on greenhouse emissions will rock. >> taking off about 100 planes a day coming and going. just across the river at the white house where you get a pleat good bird's-eye view of the planes over head president obama is concerned what is spewing from most jets engines. they are expected to say that they're endangering human health and boosting global warming and that finding would allow the epa to impose an emissions rule on commercial planes. the act would require the feds

to protect human health. they've done it with cars and trucks and now they're turning their focus on aircraft. the aviation industry said that it knows it's a pollutant and welcomes the new rules and points out it's doing quite a lot to kill emissions. >> power plants are 20% of emissions. vehicles 22%. and we're looking on it this is another arrow in the quiver to address that. >> according to the epa american aircraft are responsible for 11% of green house gas emissions. 3% of all american greenhouse gas emissions and 29% of all aircraft greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. the industry accounts for 5% of u.s. gdp or over all economic

growth. nonetheless environmentalists say it's the only key industrial sector that goes unregulated when it comes to emissions. >> this is a totally unregulated industry, and they are the largest unreregulated industry. the epa is only announcing it's intent to reduce emissions. they're not telling the industry yet what it has to do. >> so it's a prod. >> it's a prod. it's not even a prod. >> with new rules on cars, trucks and power plants come fresh technical challenges. it's time to take off with fresh thinking on pollution and aviation too. >> indeed. it will be an busy week. not only are the airlines on notice in the way we just stockholder you, but truckers are going to be told next week by the obama administration to cut their emissions by 40%. >> john terrett, thank you.

just ahead a controversial finding of not guilty, eight of the suspects jailed for the attempted assassination of have been killed. >> and why the growing number of african women are not getting married. married.

>> "inside story" takes you beyond the headlines, beyond the quick cuts, beyond the sound bites. we're giving you a deeper dive into the stories that are making our world what it is. >> ray suarez hosts "inside story". only on al jazeera america. >> we're here to fully get into the nuances of everything that's going on not just in this country but around the world. getting the news from the people who are affected. >> people need to demand reform... >> ali velshi on target weeknights 10:30p et

>> all the men aused in the attack men who were thought to be convicted were quietly released. roxana saberi is here with more on this. >> david, the official said that eight of the ten men were acquitted in april. this contradict as pakistan's announcement back then that a court sentenced all ten to long prison terms. the news is sparking criticism of the country's just system. two men after gunmen shot mallal mallala on her way home from school the police said all 10 were convicted and jailed for 25 years each. now the story is changing. a senior pakistani police official say that eight of the ten men were never convicted. they went free because of the lack of evidence. the case is raising questions about the competence of pakistan's police and it's

justice system. the police are often poorly trained and equipped and trials are often held behind closed doors. [ gunfire ] pakistan said that it has been doing what it can to arrest the man who ordered the attack. >> we ask world leaders to unite and make education their top priority. [applause] >> since the shooting she has become a global symbol of defiance. campaigning for free education for boys and girls. >> for organization the mallala fund said it has no plans right now to comment on the latest news. >> it's not quite clear why the pakistani authorities did not clarify the facts earlier. they called on pakistan to bring all mallala attackers to justice

justice. >> filing criminal charges against the catholic archdiocese in st. paul saying that it failed to protect the church from a priest who was abusing three boys in his his parish. >> it is not only curtis wayne waynemeyer who is criminally responsible for the harm charged but the archdiocese as well. >> he was convicted of abuse and is serving time in prison. fbi agents have raided the central illinois office of aaron shock. he has testified about alleged misuse of funds and yesterday afternoon officials carted away boxes of documents and a computer that shock had used. allegations that he took cash and campaign funds and spent the

money on personal leave. he resigned from congress in march. for hillary clinton there are new accusations about his time as secretary of state and delegations are about to look around a lot. the new time about fifa is about to be released although the timing of the release is raising questions. estions.

>> in our top story, the massive breach of government computers and accusations that china was involved china says are baseless. experts say the evidence leaking china with the breach is overwhelming. they say the allegations are irresponsible and unscientific. senior management scientist with the rand corporation joins us

from washington. do you have any doubt that the chinese were involved? >> pretty much no doubt. pretty much very little doubt that the chinese were involved. it fits a pattern that they've had in other cases. the folks--there was a news report, for instance, that a chinese group called deep panda had done it, which means people are correlating this branch-in break-in to other break-ins that have taken place in the past. >> there is some indication that social security numbers and personal information might have been breached. what does that mean for all those government workers? >> well, i'm probably one of those government workers myself, but i can tell you that my social security number has been stolen at least four times. i think i'm ready to put it on a public website and be done with it. part of the problem with social security numbers is that we have or at least had a system in which if i could produce your social security number i could

make a reasonbly good case that i was you. there are so many social security numbers of everybody floating around, i don't think we can make that case any more. we're getting to the point where we can't use a social security number as personal identifiable information. >> why would they do this? what are they after? >> the best guess is china is looking for information that it can do data mining on that it can find those americans that has best chance of recruiting for foreign military for china. similar to the one on various health plans used in the washington area. it's just a way of gathering information to find out who is vulnerable. >> and as far as vulnerability the united states had some defense with these computer

defense systems. >> i don't think the sophistication was good enough, otherwise this would not have happened in the first place. i can see that some federal officials are congratulating themselves that they caught it at all. but the break-ins took place in december several months ago. people think if you protect the outside of a system that you protect it entirely. but it's a model such as a model being used by anti-virus vendors that does not work well any more. if you have a database, you're going to have it keep records of how often records and the database are downloaded and by whom. people who can monitor the database can get a clue that something fishy is going on. >> is that something that the government is not currently doing? in other words is the government a generation behind private companies when it comes to being able to pick up, see

patterns and monitor what is going on? >> i believe so. if they had a system like that, it clearly didn't work very well. >> how much is spent total right now by the u.s. government in trying to protect against these sorts of attacks? >> that's really a hard number to put down and most of it is spent by the department of defense. the department of homeland security spends $1 billion a year and most of that goes to setting up something called an einstein system which is a fire wall over the.gov over the dotg dot-gov domain. it's a guess at this point. >> martin, you mentioned since you might have been one of the government employee who is had your information hawked, if you had somebody in china who is listening to you right now who is involved in this, what would you say? >> i'm not quite sure i would say inch to the chinese

government other than i don't think i'm going to work as a recruiter for a spy. my computers don't have that type of information on it. >> martin, thanks for coming on. >> in southeast turkey today powerful explosions tore through a political rally just two days before voters in that country go to the polls. turkey's president said that the two blasts at the kurdish party event was a provocation aimed at disrupting the peace before the sunday's election. two people died and others were injured. kurdish party is hoping to take seat in parliament. in the u.s. elections there are more indications that hillary clinton's path to the democratic nomination may not be very easy. controversial revelations

continue to come during her time at the state department. >> by many accounts it's the biggest surprise so far in the presidential campaign. nearly everywhere he goes berni sanders is attracting overthrow crowds. >> what we've got to do is to create an economy that works for all of us and not just the top 1%. >> sanders populous message and unique style has led to packed events across iowa, in city after city in tongue after town the audiences have been larger and more enthusiastic for saunders than any other candidate in either party. he's promoting free college tuition and thundering about americans who have to choose between medicine and food. >> this is the wealthiest country in the history of the world, those should not be the choices we face.

>> democratic rivals are taking note of the standing ovations. so far former secretary of state hillary clinton has held invitation-only public events featuring participating selected by her staff. clinton just announced she'll soon begin holding public rallies and town halls. that change intact ticks follow poll numbers that some call alarming. a new "washington post" survey clinton's favorability rating with voters stands at 45%. 49% unfavorable. those are the worst poll numbers for clinton in seven years. and when voters were asked if clinton is honest and trustworthy only 41% said yes. 52% said no. the erosion for clinton comes in the wake of criticism over her reliance in personal e-mail while she led the state department and new revelations about fundraising practices at the clinton foundation. the latest disclosures indicated

the foundation accepted up to $10 million from this african church called the cameroon baptist convention. the group has compared homosex homosexuality to committing incest and bestiality and has been described as a devilish type of thing. clinton has publicly said she supports gay marriage and featured a gay couple in her public announcement video. the awkward revelation about the church could reinforce perception that money is more important to the clinton than integrity. the controversies fair or not have prompted some nervousness among democratic activists and they say its fueling some of the interests in berni saunders. >> if a bank is too big to fail, that bank is too big to exist. >> influencely television has taken notice providing the vermont progressive with another boost. >> instead of cutting social security we're going to expand

social security benefits. >> what a--what a--what a--what a--rational slightly left of center mainstream politician. >> berni sand urgency still does not have much of a political organization and fundraising organization. and they need both to take a presidential campaign very far. however, sanders' often perceived authenticity is garner garnering a lot of attention particularly from the clintons, which has gotten off to a rocky start. let's go to political michael sure shure. >> in a state where they're finishicky where they wait until the end and kick the tires

and take a test drive berni saunders is somebody that they seem to be committed to early. like you said at the ends of your piece. berni sand urgency does not have the organization or the money. but it's still a long road for berni sanders. i do think that it remind me of howard dean. he had a lot of the same people at his rallies as well, and we know what happened to him. >> the clinton numbers being upside down and underwater, the issue of trust how important is that for the clintons in the democratic party? >> that's a huge concern. that's not something confineed to the primaries. you heard this week she was talking about voting rights, trying to appeal to a liberal side of the democratic party in order to maybe cut into what berni sanders is doing. but the issue of trust is going to follow hillary clinton as it

has, frankly for a long time. it's going to follow her into iowa and new hampshire and it will be something that she deals with with her republican opponents if she gets the nomination. >> and something that she has not dealt with is this trade deal that president obama supports. berni sanders and former governor of maryland oppose t and hillary clinton has taken no position. how long can she take to straddle the fence? >> you spend so much time in the early parts of the campaign with exploratory commission and declaring. hillary clinton has been on a listening tour. eventually she'll have to speak. eventually she will not be able to hand pick her audiences. she'll have to stake out a position on trade, one that will probably differ with her husband, and it will differ from

what the president is saying especially in a primary where she's going up against people who are very defined in their positions on this trade deal. it will be tricky. once she starts speaking and not listening, then you're going to hear from hillary clinton. >> great stuff michael shure our political contributor. have a great weekend. from presidential politics to a more personal kind there is every indication that when it comes to finding life partners the numbers are increasingly stacked against african-american women. for every 100 black women available there are only 83 available black men. that ratio in the african-american community is changing the landscape of america's middle class. libby casey explains. >> it's a regular topic of conversation in the african-american community. educated successful, black women in search of a partner are instead staying single. >> black women are not getting married. that's clear. what does this mean?

what are the implications? what are the long-term consequences. >> sociologist chris marsh studies those consequences. >> there are simply more black women than black men. there are more professional available black women than professional available black men. there are more black men in prison and therefore not in the marriage market. >> anika knows all too well the challenges in the marriage market. >> i assumed i would meet a guy. >> she has a successful cooler career and is working on a ph.d. she's active in her community and church. what is missing in her life is someone to share it with. >> i thought i would meet the love of my life, make some money, have some babies, and i ended up being still single. >> she's not alone in feeling frustrated and like the deck is stacked against her. >> i think it's an interesting conversation.

i've received feedback. you're a little bit too educated, a little bit too strong willed, and too involved in activity activities. >> another issue interracial marriage. black women are less likely than black men to marry outside of their race. >> not to the detriment or degradation of any other group but it's your roots, your back round. >> and the high rate of arrest and incarceration of black men that are six times more likely than white men to be behind bars. >> i'm not dating a guy who has a record. >> that's fine to support them in a capacity that they've been incarcerated: but that doesn't mean i should be expected to see this person necessarily as potential mate material if i don't feel that way and i

shouldn't have to feel guilty about that. >> there is lack of abundance of black men and black women who are ready to marry. this couple did not marry until their late 30s. >> the notion that those men don't want to get married i think is probably false. they just end up getting married somewhat later. i take great pride in taking care of my family. taking care of my wife. taking care of my wife. >> richelle admits' already worried about the choices facing his six-year-old. >> i do have concerns about my daughter and what her prospects are. i guess i would say i would prefer that she find a good black man. >> but according to census numbers, african-american women are less likely to get married

than any other racial group across every age black women are staying single at far higher rates than whites, asians and hispanics. dr.dr. marsh says that's not necessarily a bad thing. she said that marriage is no longer the key of climbing the economic ladder and black women are doing it on their own. >> while they may not have the traditional model that they wanted they're still breaking ground in the middle class. >> and as more black women stay single it's changing the make up of america's middle class and changing the vision some african-american women have about their own future. >> i'm living my life because that's all i can do. if the right person comes along i know i'll be ready because i've invested so much time in self growth and self development. >> libby casey al jazeera. washington. >> coming up next, spy story about the greatest double agents in history even his family had no idea until recently.

and is cleveland cursed? the cavaliers trying to break a drought that has plagued the city for 52 years 51 years but even lebron james may be seeing ghosts. we'll explain.

only on al jazeera america >> it appears to be a new link between south africa's

successful world cup bid and the scandal engulfing soccer's governing body. the country's chief world cup arguer asked fifa in 2006 to put $10 million in accounts controlled by jack warner. warner is one of 14 people indicted by the justice at the point. the $10 million secured warner's vote for south africa to host the world up in 2010. south african officials do not deny the bribery payment but they say the money was supposed to go towards growth of the game in the caribbean. in the middle of the scandal over soccer's world governing body is a new movie about fifa largely funded by the organization debuts today. the film ignored the soccer's greatest on the field legends and instead focused on those who built its bureaucracy.

>> the football association. >> fifa. >> it's a movie that's been around for a year but with interesting timing it gets it's u.s. opening this weekend. united passion tells the creation of fifa world football governing body funded with $60 million of money from the organization it gathered horrible reviews. it was called stall inlist propaganda. and new york post described it as tedious amateurist, and hilariously ill-timed. it's the story of administrators and internal politics not the usual fare of sporting movies. but after the events of the last two weeks with corruption charges with those at the top of fifa some of the script lines take on additional significance. >> he's apparently good at finding money. >> you have everything you need

to find money. >> i don't know where the money has gone. i mean, i have my situations. >> united passions only has a limited cinema release here in the united states. it's only on in 11 cities, and only in a handful of screens. the only cinema that is showing it in and around washington, d.c. is sharing a screen and the smallest one at that. those who have seen the movie say it fills the theater with laughter, which is unfortunate because it's not meant to be a comedy. >> it's a ludicrous movie and a ridiculous bit of corporate self aggrandising to begin with. it happens to be coming out in theaters the very same week sepp blatter played by tim roth, is amid storm of controversy and many fifa guys are taken out in handcuffs from their hotel in switzerland. the timing could not be better to laugh at this movie. >> the movie will be available

on demand. for a small fee people will be able to watch it at home as long as the files are not corrupt: alan fisher, al jazeera. >> remember, you're making history. >> he is considered one of the unsung heroes of world war ii, a spanish double agent with the code game garbo. he helped to convince the germans that d-day would never happen. one englishman was able to track him down. >> it's hard to imagine that this unassumeing balding man was a spy with the cold code name garbo. but he was, in fact, a double agent and a man who is credited for single-handedly bringing world war ii to an end. he retired to a town in venezuela with no one not even his children knowing his secret.

his life was built on a lie. >> he was the best dad in the world. he was incredibly transparent. in our house not only were lies banned but also you could not call anyone a liar. you could say that someone lied, but no one could be called a liar. >> it would take years for garbo to gain the german's trust but eventually he would become one of their agents. he would file a series of bogus reports for years. he even fabricated an elaborate network of fictitious agents. but his greatest trump was operation fortitude where he convinced the nazis that the d-day where occur further north. his ability to lie convincingly is the heart of his genius.

>> he was a romantic dreamer. you think of 27 different personalities that he invented living in other places, in england and canada and india and places like that, and then having complete biography just like a victoryian novel. >> although he helped to change the course of modern history his life and his feat went almost unnoticed until the day than nigel west tracked him down. >> my first call to juan was to say that i was calling from buckingham palace, and if he was the double agent garbo would he like to come to london. >> he was awarded the german iron cross and the british empire award. it's hard to assess the full extent of his legacy. for some he was an undisputed hero. for others, the greatest double agent in history.
