1:08 pm
even french citizen that is have been born and raised here felt they had been treated as though they were foreign, even if they carried french citizenship. that's something that has always been a burden on them, and it has made it difficult for them, they told us, to assimilate. in light of these newest attacks and light of this much more tense atmosphere here, there's much more worry in the these communities. that muslims will be targeted because of their backgrounds. especially in light of the new state of emergency being passed today. it is very easy to sense the fear, everyone we talked to today would not talk to us on camera. in fact, most of the time when we asked if we could, you would really see a look of fear in their eyes. and many of the youth that we spoke with today, said that they never have felt as though the french government has done enough. to try to get the root causes
1:09 pm

1:11 pm
>> with the think tank center for european reform, she joins us live now from buts sells and so we are hing from rob wainwright there that further attacks in europe are likely. can they be prevented. >> well, that's the big -- that's the $1 million question, right. i think -- i don't like to criticize the work of intelligence services. which is not easy, and they just need to miss 11 attack to be blamed for everything, i think it is very difficult to prevent every single attack that might be plotted at the moment, but there are messages that we can take to ensure that at least we cooperate better and we don't have terrorists news in between countries and this sort of thing. >> and as police and security forces try to peace together the path, of the paris attackers it is emerged sha
1:12 pm
abdul is suspected to be involved in past plots. it is expected that he may have returned from syria, but no one was tracking his movements, what does that perhaps reveal about the system of checks and controls in europe. >> right, i am sure that someone was -- >> to his presence on the european soil. >> that's the different thing, so one thing is what the intelligence services to in their member state, in their own territory, and another thing is how do they cooperate between themselves and how much information they share. as we heard before, so of course it is very security important security to have him without no one realizing.
1:13 pm
even if you cannot prevent every single attack, you can take measures to avoided this kind of behaviors. the control at therd boors. >> one of the problems is that some members of isil have belgian, french, british passports how difficult is it to identify these individuals and then make sure they are kept under surveillance no matter where they travel in europe? >> so basically we are looking t a citizens who travel to conflict zones and come back for impact. and indeed, they have been a big threat for over a couple of years already, and we have been hearing from everybody from elsewhere police courts that they have represented very serious risk.
1:14 pm
they can travel freely across the union, that doesn't mean we can't do anything about them, because even if we have travel we still have some means to actually know what people are up to, eses specially in airports and other place places it is more difficult, than if they are noneuropean citizens. >> thank you very much, it was very interesting to get your analysis on this story, with the center for european reform. now isil is boosting it's defenses and the strong hold as it prepares for more air strikes and the possible assault by rebel forces in response to the paris attacks. which they will set on fire, if anyone tries to invade.

1:32 pm
strikes will have to be combined with ground forces actually taken back more territory from isis. michael is the head of the security project. and he joins us live now from new york, thank you very much indeed. for speaking to us. perhaps you can start by explaining how the attacks have impacted the focus on foreign policy, or the emphasis on it. in the u.s. presidential campaign. particularly after the speech by hillary clinton. >> thank you for having me, i think we would all agree that close observers of the campaign, there's been a general lack of seriousness. about gnash security issues the exception to that the shining exception is of course secretary clinton, with deep experience has been confronting these issues for some time, and i think this speech demonstrates that
1:33 pm
mastery of these issues. it is a broad strategy, it is clear, it has three primary components the first is dealing with isil and ultimately destroying it. on the frowned and many syria and iraq, and elsewhere in the region. the second component of it. is to confront and roll back the infrastructure that isil and similar groups are building around the world. exactly how this would work, how she would accomplish that. >> i think the speech lays it out very clearly, it is clear this must be an area that they lead, and this has to be a regional response. even in europe together can't do it alone. there are three components to this which is layed out on
1:34 pm
the ground. the first of course is a continuing american and coalition air campaign, but the second is about supporting forces on the ground, that have to take the fight, and she has been clear those forces have to be predominately prevented the region. but the combination of air power and the forces allowed us to talkability a other things. we can't abandon that. >> we have heard similar language from barack obama, the emphasis has been very much on u.s. air power, in syria, and iraq combined with ground troops. from those countries really taking the lead. in taking baxter story from isil.
1:35 pm
what then if they can't be encouraged to do so. >> i think again, what she has layed out is a clear way to get these. i think paris has been a clarifying moment, the downing the moment, needs to be one for the russians who is still not quite fully coming around to playing a role, to put it mildly, i think what the secretary is calling for is the kind of international coalition building that will be necessary to do this, and as you say, this has been discussed before but i think the combination of the experience. they are laying out a path. >> at the same time, they were backing away from any significant u.s. commitment
1:36 pm
in the ground, is this something of a contradiction there, if she is going to ultimately achieve what she lays out in the speech, will it not require a greater commitment by american troops in the middle east. >> i think she is clear on thelesses sons the last 15 years this is where i see the lack of seriousness, among many of her opponents. to speak of a clash of civilizations these kind of obeli ideas. going that again is not the answer to the problem. so she is talking about supporting a host of people, the curds moderate opposition, the iraqi forces and so on. with the american special operations portions with an intensified air campaign, with the goal of establishing safe havens that can protect the people, combined with a diplomatic effort, i think after paris and downing the russian airliner the time is ripe for this, but we must intensify it to bring the civil war in syria to a close, and a close that does
1:37 pm
not bring power. she said in a speech this won't be easy, but this is what we have to do. and i think equally clear we can't abandon our values in the process. i think that is we can't ignore that component. this is about strategy, but it ises also about moral clarify. calling this a war with entire religion, the kind of calling for religious tests on what kind of refugees america will accept. thank you very much, appreciate your time.

1:42 pm
growing resistence well, in this case. is massny china. this year it is predicted that they are going to use around 12,000 tons of the antibiotics. just for the promotion of growth of animals. so this is provided in enormous pressure. they have done it very successfully, they always do and always will. so now they have developed a gene, which is present on a mass which is a small piece of dna. which cob pers resistence. a lot of the infections it is the only one we have left. so if these -- if these bacteria in the u.k. can pick up which has been found in china. we will have no way to treat these infections.
1:43 pm
how easily, how quickly can that happen. >> well, previous resistence have been found initially in one part of the world, and then within 12 months they are spread globally. so we can imagine it happens quite quickly. >> can anything prevent this. >> i don't think we can prevent it, what we can do is slow it down. by not selecting this so much. the fact that it has been used quite widely particularly in china. >> well, it needs as political reform, really, in the countries which is still using it in you remember faking. that's not happening in europe, but uh it is in the far east. >> why is that. >> well, in europe, there was an agreement between the
1:44 pm
farmers and then a police motivation behind it to stop antibiotic use. because the problem was recognized early on. and they have done that, but it hasn't been adopted elsewhere many the world. >> so who would lead a process like that would it have to be the world health organization, obviously rules and regulations and one country to try and slow resistence to antibiotics, doesn't mean very much if similar measures are not being taken elsewhere in the world. >> that's right. and it is up to each individual government, to put measures in place. by the restricted use of these antibiotics. for anything over the clinical defense. >> is this something that cannot be reversed now. so even if tomorrow china and other countries were to put these measures in place, is it inevitable that we will be resistant to the very strongest drugs. >> so we carry from all
1:45 pm
