6:12 pm
addictive drug, so, real rules have to be needed. john: do you agree, rules against heroin? heroin? most say no, what about you tea party? >> i think you should be free to do what you want as long as you don't hurt people or take their stuff.

6:33 pm
faced with a horrible choice, descend the mountain and be slaughtered or stay and slowly die of thirst and hunger, i have said before, united states cannot, should not intervene every time there is a crises in the world, let me be clear about why we mustable and now, when we face a situation like we do on this mountain with innocent people facing prospect of violence on a horrific scale, we have a mandate to help in this case, a request from iraqi government, and we have unique capebility to help abetter a massacre, i believe that - unitd states of america cannot turn a blind eye, we can act carefully and responsibly, that is what we're doing. i authorize targeted airstrikes if necessary to help forces in iraq as they fight to break the siege, of the mount, and protect the civilians trapped there
6:34 pm

6:35 pm
only lasting solution is reconcileing a among iraqi communities and strong eric racky security forces. however we can and should, is up certificate moderate forces to can bring stability to iraq, as we carry out the two missions, we will continue to pursue a broader strategy that ope open s iraqi to confront this crisis, leaders need to come together and forge a new government, they can fight back toe back against the threats -- bakari savage against the threats like is, they have named a new president, they are seeking consensus on a new prime minister, this is progress that needs to continue to reverse momentum of terrorists who prey to iraq's divisions. 1 iraq has a new government, united states will work with it and other countries in the region to provide increased support to deal with this humanitarian crises and counterterrorism challenge.
