middle east and iraq is represented as a failure of the u.s. in places like syria and take the matters seriously, in iraq and failure after it led in runed in libya and yemen and, so far, and so what's happening in iraq represents a larger crisis in american foreign policy. how to get things back on track, if you're saying that it's been mismanaged, and how to get things back on track. problem here, in washington, the mindset goes, republican and, democrat. the republican said, it's president barak obama's fault,. it's too political. he outsourced american foreign policy, in iraq to the iranians, even in syria and saudi arabia and iran and
11:33 am

11:36 am
we have stocks that have last us for a week. if we don't get dollars to clear the containers, then we'll be forced to stop operations. because of the fall in oil prices and the conflict that started, oil production is low and this is what makes the plastic and, it is blown up, and the granuwells have to be imported and, the dollars from the bank, and the black market rate is too high. when we visited this country, in march, it was running, but huge overhead coast and now the minutes have gone quiet and, people have lost their jobs. half of what we were supplying, right now we cannot afford doing in. one needs a letter of credit from the government to access

11:39 am
shopping around for the best price. i don't believe that people are going to use websites less. the average consumer across the world searches, 4-7 different websites right before they take a trip, so i think that that comparison is going to happen and, some of the loyal lists will go to the airlines of their choice. but i do think, this is something that maybe a trend or maybe a need by the airlines to drive a certain segment straight to their website and we have seen it, here in the united states with southwest airlines who have sold it just on their website. and so maybe it will be a trend, and i think that the customer here will win and, be able to compare all the oversights. more than 8% of adults around the world suffer from diabetes, in the u.s., more than
