on the capital tripoli to step up pressure on tunnel could have. been is the final countdown for international trio of after a four day trip to the styles in less than six hours now the russian soyuz rocket will propel them into orbit from the remote can all come from a drive in classic style. as i on iran has a worrying echo of what happened over iraq that's in the view of a pulitzer prize winning writer seymour hersh and he's been telling us here at r.t. that washington's ignoring its own intelligence because it's hell bent on finding nuclear weapons that it knows don't exist. pulitzer prize winner and legendary american investigative journalist seymour hersh is bust known for exposing the my lai massacre in vietnam since then his investigations have continued to shake up washington from uncovering torture at abu ghraib to exposing secret u.s.

military operations overseas to his latest piece which pokes holes in the commonly held assertion here in washington that iran is developing a nuclear weapons program mr hurst is down with r.t. to discuss his latest story in the new yorker magazine were here is the obama administration allowing fear and not facts dictate a potentially disastrous foreign policy towards a wrong mr hersh thank you so much for sitting down with us based on your investigation is the united states wrong to assume the worst when it comes to iran if the fear is based on the notion that you know that somehow iran has a bomb or is going to get a bomb soon that's ridiculous because every bit of evidence they have it from their own intelligence community. but the people who thought would be very good but know there's no weapons there we've known that for years we've been looking for years after years of the years we supported sanctions program that's designed to stop the punishment is it's aimed at stopping the iranians from doing something you know we

know they're not the way for me and so i wrote miracle the analogy between what they're doing with obama's doing with iran it's very close to what bush and cheney the vice president did to iraq that is they want to punish they want to make a case against iraq they didn't like their products. and so we made a case about nuclear weapons we if you remember when they were talking about mushroom clouds making a case to go to war i don't i'm not suggesting these guys want to go to war i mean there are elements in america so big elements that is here that would we'd love to see us attack iran but that would be suicidal and. there's no actual evidence of the iranians developing a nuclear weapons program but why why the the fear mongering and the rhetoric whether it's the administration or the mainstream media there's no evidence of our work at the station there's no evidence anywhere i went you could you go to london you go to you go to you go to the french you go to the germans they also there's a thing we thought we still think they might want to go but we don't have anything it should be open and shut we should move on but we're not and so what you're

seeing is their mom owing me and what i wrote and they're ignoring it to a point there's always a group that doesn't ignore stuff but the mainstream press basically they have their narrative. and they don't want to change america i've been writing about the secret operations we've had inside iran in the new yorker for about five years because they started in late zero four maybe or five vice president cheney was convinced it was a secret facility somewhere underground in iran and so our special forces units were going in and we went in through herat there in afghanistan we went in through baluchistan. in pakistan we've been going into iran covertly with money and chemicals and support chemicals i mean by plastic from an explosive materials we've been dealing with these young gal that we've been dealing with i mean kurds is very dissident groups inside iran with the goal of trying to trying to find.

neutralizing their weapons program and finding their secret program we found nada nothing and now it is going to internal what i wrote about in the magazine is that into major internal studies that's known as national intelligence estimates so they are the most secular documents we have in our government in terms of an assessment and they both said nothing there what the obama administration disagrees with. i mean you know. i'm doing my job when the window in the white house is magic i could care less and by the way. from my point of view these guys are no more no more they're no more straight with them than the bush white house was and that's a shocking thing they say but they're pretty much the same why the mainstream media not reporting i get a lot of stuff from colleagues around the world more open than the american press does to its criticism of america but i know somebody one of the guys from so boston globe guy and who just said something i think they said well why don't you write about you know people you don't have to write my story with pick up on it he said

but we're not going to give two thousand words to the new yorker. so you do talk about there is now a sense with with the internet and everybody competing for the fewer and fewer dollars that are there is a sense of. economic competitiveness too but that's only part of what the real issue is the underlying main theme is the white house controls things in a way that they always do and this white house is just as interested in controlling things and when somebody like me comes out you just kick me around and so and it's easy to do because everybody's very eager but you don't get nowadays you get perfectly professional stories representing interview with the ministration but they're not getting anybody on the inside is telling them a different story and so we're stark we're stuck with the major newspapers reporting pretty much what the administration wants and so when somebody like me goes up against them. it's the same story it's happened this story it's happened every story or done since nine eleven really every good one what so why is it you

come out with a piece that says iran is not of the threat that it's made out to be and you're suddenly considered a heretic it's not about me it's and was there to show as i said they have an area and the narrative is iran is bad they are making bombs even if we can't find it we know it must be they're evil people and so what's the consequence for the american public if they're not aware that most american public is right there with twenty four hour cable more interested in you know. a stupid thing some congress i did with. the internet which is chronic and goes all the time has the united states taken the right course in responding to the so-called arab spring you know we have such a we view everything to what america prism you know everything that it's callender like probably who believed it when the sun revolved around us and we didn't worry about anyway. look if you're an iranian or you know middle east and you know what's going on in bahrain and you see the white house. iran.

and criticize or at the same time everybody in iran and everybody in the middle east is watching what's going on in bahrain and we think nothing how do you think it impacts going to be a part or see. for us in the middle not the gulf anymore because we certainly betrayed the trust. in the streets of egypt when obama finally came in support of them there was there was you know they were done with us they wanted him to board early and so. we've missed the boat on that those movements were probably the best tools we've had certainly better than the use of force that we've been using the night raids and all that stuff and. you know the renditions and yet he's you know we've bought that up so it's it's a it's a true mess this administration is focused on iran as a source of all evil iran is helping is it's helping the syrian. do do what

it does syria's if the sunni mccardell in syria needs any help from anybody to get tough you know how to do it but president obama was elected because he was supposed to represent change chart this country down a different course than the bush administration oh come on come on don't get serious i mean come on through the election we're going to be reelected the only hope a lot of us have is that in the second term he's such a break at a second term he'll be maybe he'll become the link we thought he might be but he's got he's got he's got a you know he's got a reelection. you could argue that he knows that getting some of it is great but he's going to be reelected and the price of oil and jobs and when the oil for this high because he's tainting the company's thinking right now because we're being we're paying for to have cars for oil for gasoline a gallon and so what's his big issue his big issue is he's going to could be the saudis to try to make nice and look the other way is that he mutilate people around

the middle east and spend their money because he wants two million barrels more a day of war what's your assessment of the obama administration's handling of the afghanistan war yesterday. chemistry the double minus i mean you know everybody i'm tell you even the most committed hawk with the exception of general petraeus and other people have to see what they have to say i know nobody thinks we have any future in afghanistan the faster we get out of there i was talking to somebody the other day. a very conservative very pro war person saying i just thought of another american life and the only thing we see in terms of america in terms of the afghans drives me crazy no more it's not worth it i was one more life and what's going on there is ghastly just ghastly it's it's out of control there's no good leadership for when your bunch of boys running around in fear of death from the land like the rock of course is still unraveling all right because as we talk

a day we're actually going to be probably obama's biggest problem next year and it's going to be a very tough call about whether he stays or goes with the troops and feet if you keep troops there he's got my target sort of the and those would be more extreme here going after us and it's going to be reporting on the vietnam war you've reported on conflicts throughout the years throughout the decades what happened to the learning. learning america. what there is not going to occur we are going for the past in space we have you spent your life exposing this but i'm also realistic i've got a better instead. we could go into another country about which we know very little with no language and think we could change a society. going into it we think we could do that i mean was there a learning you know what did we learn that we learned from vietnam we went in the good maybe we could even win that one pretty well you know that was sort of silly so. there was an improvement in the press so i think when ronald reagan went into

nicaragua salvadorian it was more criticism so i thought maybe we'd learn something from you but the last ten years showed me nine eleven. part of it was american out of payback we were scared but. we you know i would argue that the american press totally failed after nine eleven we became george bush's cheerleader and his partner and sort of looking critically at things and that's happening out to mr hurst thank you so much for your time. in one thousand nine hundred two dr ralph minster at the university of pennsylvania said what if i can take the gene responsible for growth in human beings and put it into a. long haul the main. issues

. ninety five percent of all competent scientists in these fields are rooting for you society and only five percent are generally independent. there's not a lot of science that says transgenic this isn't healthy for people to consume. which is what the food and drug administration looks at there's a lot of concern about the environmental impacts if a transgenic fish escapes what kind of horrible impact will it have on the rest of the fish population don't know what this might do to us or our children or our children's children in our congress here in the united states or our legislatures throughout the world we vote all these different laws tax laws and corporate laws what could be more important than deciding on the feminine genetic future of life on earth.
