draws widespread attention to israel's kind of arsenal detention policy three hundred palestinians are reportedly currently held in jails without official charge for trial. when next we sit down with former u.s. attorney general ramsey clark to discuss the twists and turns of american relations with iran and syria. iran could attack the united states in a much more fearsome way new york could eventually be on iran's hit list us media reports desperate new pleas from out of the country the oppressors and the oppressed stop the killings echoing washington's repeated warnings to the world carry out the attack american officials have labeled syria and iran as great threats to global security however former u.s. attorney general ramsey clark says the biggest threat to world peace is his own country's military and foreign policy in an exclusive interview with our t.v.
3:32 am
a lawyer and activist says america's next catastrophic mistake will likely be a war with iran my impression is that israel was pressuring. for an assault before the election. and the obama administration is resisting that without favoring iran anyway simply as a domestic political matter the u.s. can't really afford to get involved in another war. with that's not the way it works and you do crazy things and that's and that's why the world such a mess if you're from strikes and there's retaliation. the united states will intervene and i don't think it's obama's choice but i think he's he thinks that if he doesn't act with israel that it would be too costly an
3:33 am
election he would do it you have to see the american system been odious were to really understand fully. if he loses their selection for your president. and all of his major decisions. we primarily record how they impact on the coming election. because if you lose that election anything you accomplished and you cough if you think health care and things like that are better than they were far from ideal and far from what and if you have the congress in the second section of session to do but. he should you struggle against enormous pressure of. the pentagon ability i mean i've watched president to further josh is one of those guys coming from the pentagon you think they know everything i don't know nuffin let's first go to syria. while speaking to the united nations security council the syrian ambassador reportedly quoted
3:34 am
a statement that you said nearly twenty two years ago he said quote the u.n. which was established fervently encouragement of war has become itself a tool for war how do you perceive the circumstances surrounding syria right now and the u.s. and european actions and the campaign for some type of intervention we're sure is. going to stream an international and some degree domestic pressure and violence for only one reason. it's the same reason it gave. iraq. afghanistan and libya syria is a part of the effort to eliminate every independent arab government independent of u.s. control i think that's the girl that's not humanitarian response oh my god it's.
3:35 am
political i mean look what we did to poor egypt going back to for root actually misery for the people for. four. brutal regimes. us dominated over the decades you have faced a lot of criticism and have even been labeled by some as a traitor after providing legal defense to a controversial figure such as slobodan milosevic and saddam hussein you have described both of their trials as unfair and flawed last year the world saw form former libyan leader moammar qaddafi murder before receiving any trial oh was to blame for that crime well i don't want. the american people are to blame because they let their government do it the american people though i mean it's the
3:36 am
is the american government really acting on behalf of public opinion within the country i mean that he would think that if you don't have opinion about things like that i mean you know you see the american people allow their government to do it to the u.s. government really consults with what the people want before taking foreign policy measures or confrontational or manipulation. manipulate public opinion to support his policy whatever it is and war. if you poured military action this particular important condition the public point which is. racial. matters and we don't have a minute for sure is the american public. has any daily concern about what's going on in the world and it's a big cation trip like many have labeled iran then you iraq with respect to
3:37 am
the us media coverage of everything the u.s. officials are saying about iran right now which is quite similar to what was said about iraq preceding u.s. intervention whether the theme for solving a foreign country through history of almost always been somewhere haven't they hear bad guys who did bad things were mean to their people or whatever there are only a handful of things that you build up before you intervene in a foreign nation or they've been a friendship those who are preparing to assault someone you know all of those countries have been victims of us aggression because of us geopolitical economic interests and our our foreign policy is over probably driven by. economic power the united states has interests in areas where we intervene
3:38 am
basically for if you call it a business but it's exploitation if these interventions can happen and former leaders do not face what you say a fair trial or what's left of international law if saddam hussein had been like mubarak and done what the united states past told him to do he has been a pleasant personality united states media and would say what nice people what a great guy you know. because he wouldn't do what you know wanted he had to be taken out as bashar al assad destined for the same treatment president assad is. good gentle person there are a lot of people that would really disagree with the statement you just said that president clinton said for a lot of people the public addition if you look at history he left probably worked
3:39 am
in and he studied how to take care of people it should medicine and healing but right now there is no healing really taking care of syria trying to save his country as he should and that's that's a rough business if you've got people shoot which are how do you think that's going to play out do you think that his side government will be able to withstand the mounting pressure i mean there were one hundred thirty seven member states of the u.s. that supported general assembly resolution condemning indorsing the arab league plan that essentially calls for him to step down the fact that one hundred thirty seven. nations voted. as they did mean that the people of those nations or even the government should really feel that way. the influence of the economic power of the united states. to some degree nato is the. most evident i wouldn't have knowledge or interest anyway we're going to go along
3:40 am
with them that's what that's about. it's going to be tough very tough. i don't know what do you make it on you served as u.s. attorney general under president johnson and having said that i want to ask you about some domestic issues when you read legislation such as the national defense authorization act what impression do you get of can mocker see in america now. where you get i get to impression from reading it. that we live in a military dominated society where the people who own or. but. terrorism is a threat you know on nine eleven is create a level of fear that has been exploited and. sustained and.
3:41 am
uninformed people would never go along with it how is the u.s. political process changed since you became a part of another half a century ago. consistently stronger at the national level and the states have become less powerful what was your biggest disappointment means in step up from parts. of our biggest disappointment for our administration was a war it would. children's book anything else it was a great great tragedy many have compared. the demonstrations and the rallies that took place during the at not more to the occupy wall street movement what do you think will come out of the occupy movement do you think it will be much of a political or social game changer do you think it will just be it just put a tool to let steam out i think the occupy wall street movement has an enormous
3:42 am
potential. you could see any war movement civil rights movement and so many people involved in no sure if you're black you know you're great if it's war or if your kids in the war actually be drafted or if you're just a passionate. when you finally have a major population hurting so bad for me a part of me or concerned so much about the justice or injustice of the economy. you're reaching. ninety nine percent basically you know you surely are reaching ninety percent so i think it has enormous potential i think it's got to. it's got to study harder what is trying to do. a little bit less to shellfish trish and more to the general good at first but underlying it is a selfish interest and i want to be very straight and economy it has to be true
