grandson britain of trying to reassert their former colonial influence and. plus the u.k. is steaming ahead with plans to expand its nuclear program fueling concerns are terrorists could be on the site says the markets the center field facility in the us to the substance of it is still busy recycling lots of material and. now one of america's leading investigative journalists says his country's eye on iran has a bearing echo of what happened in iraq seymour hersh has been telling arteta washington is ignoring its own intelligence because it's hell bent on finding nuclear weapons that it will never use don't exist. pulitzer prize winner and legendary american investigative journalist seymour hersh is best 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 a commonly held assertion here in washington that are wrong and it was developing a nuclear weapons program mr hurst sits down with r.t. to discuss his latest story in the new yorker magazine he says 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 he has a bomb or is going to get a bomb soon that's ridiculous because every bit of evidence of it from their own intelligence community. the people of the top of the bird go but no there's no weapons there we've known that for years we've been looking for years there for years and years we support

a sanctions program that's designed to stop the punishment is. aimed at stopping the iranians from doing something you know we know they're not doing to me and i wrote miracle baby analogy between what they're doing obama is doing with iran is very close to what bush did dick cheney the vice president that did to iraq there is they want to punish they wanted to make a case against iraq they didn't like their politics. and so we made a case about nuclear weapons we've if you remember when they were talking about mushroom clouds i make 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 in israel that would would love to see a setback in iraq 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 that or weaponization there's no evidence anywhere i went you could go to london you go to

you go to you go to the french you go to the germans they also there's a big 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 that there's always a group of those that 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 new york for about five years because they started in late zero four maybe zero 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 into herat in afghanistan we went into baluchistan. in pakistan we've been going into iran covertly with money and chemicals and support me i chemicals i mean back last week on any flows of materials we've been dealing with the handle that we've been dealing with the iranian kurds is the resistance

groups inside iran with the goal of trying to trying to find. neutralizing their 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 in two major internal study that's known as national intelligence estimates so the most psychos think documents we have in our government in terms of an assessment and they both said nothing there what the obama administration disagrees with your assessment i mean big deal i mean you know. i'm doing my job well and i know in the white house as a medic i couldn't care less and by the way. from my point of view these guys are no more and no more then no more straight with us than the bush white house was and that's a shocking thing to say but it's pretty much the same why the mainstream media not reporting i get a lot of stuff from colleagues around the world who are more open than the american press is to its criticism of america but i asked somebody one of the guys from the

boston globe guy and he just said something nice to me is that why don't you write about it if it's you know you don't have to write my story would pick up on it he said 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 out there there's a sense of. economic competitiveness too but that's only part of what the real issue is the underlying main thing is the white house controls things in a way that they always do and this white house is just as interested to control the thing from when somebody like me comes out kick me around and so on and it's easy to do because everybody is very eager if what you don't get now is you get perfectly professional stories representing the view with the ministration but they're marketing anybody on the inside is telling them a different story and so we're stuck 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 with this story it's happening every story i've done since nine eleven really a good one what so why is it you cannot 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 when was the confessional as i said they have a narrative and a narrative is iran is bad they're 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 the leaders stupid things some congress or did with the 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 through it american prison you know we everything it's to limit well i probably you believe the sun revolves around that so we don't worry

about that anyway. look if you're an iranian in the middle east and you know what's going on in bahrain and you see the white house. criticize or run at the same time everybody in iran and everybody in the middle east is watching what's going on of bahrain and we think nothing how do we think it effects how to be a partner so there's no love for us a bit in that is not my gulf anymore because we certainly betrayed the trust. in the streets of egypt when obama finally came and suborder them there was there was . you know they were done with us they wanted him 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 you know we've got that up so it's a it's

a true mess this is ministration is focused on iran as the source of all evil iran is helping it's helping the syrian recover right to do what it does in syria as if the sunni macabre 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 response to chart this country down a different course than the bush administration cannot come on don't get serious i mean so the election results could be reelected the only hope a lot of us have is that in the second term such a break at a second term he'll be maybe could become the link that we thought he might be but he's got he's got he's got a you know he's got a real action. you could argue that he knows that getting some of the blood is great but he's going to be reelected with the price of oil and jobs and when the oils this high the economy's taking become he's thinking right now because we're being we're paying for it after i was sort of oil for gasoline

a gallon and so what's his big issue his big issue is he's got to convince the saudis that it's going to make nice to look the other way very early people around the middle east and spend their money because he wants two million barrels more a day of oil what's your assessment of the obama administration's handling of the afghanistan war yes. casting the double minus i mean you know everybody i'm telling 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 be other day. i'm very conservative very pro war person saying i just thought of another american life but only we see in terms of america that in terms of the afghans drives me crazy and then no more it's not worth it and i was one more life and what's going on there is ghastly just ghastly. it's out of control in those leaderships forward 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 day by 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 problem solver and those will be more extreme shia going after us it's going to be reported on the vietnam war even further and conflicts throughout the years throughout the decades what happened to the learning curve. learning in america. well there is going to occur we don't learn from past mistakes we haven't spent your life exposing this but i'm also a realist the fact of the matter is that. we could go into another country about which we know very little with the language and think we could change a society. going in or 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 into

greneda we could even win that one very well you know that was sort of so and so and. there was an improvement in the press so i think when ronald reagan went into nicaragua and started doing it it was more criticism so i thought maybe we had learned something from. the last ten years or so of the nine eleven. part of it was america want to pay back we were scared but. the reason 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 now to the degree that mr hurst thank you so much for your time. here is the same i understand nicely and of course we mustn't let that look like
