i happened to see it's because it was also given to a member of congress that i worked for at the time. he sent it over to the white house and called rove called rove called back he said that he found the proposal intriguing he wanted to know if it was genuine were a promise to put it in front of the president i would call karl rove a dear friend. i've seen a man of far sighted courage put america on a war footing. and protect us against a brutal enemy in a dangerous conflict that will shape this new century no formal response was given to the iranians at all i'm grateful to have been witness to history. and the argument was that whatever could come out of a negotiation with the iranians. even more could be achieved by simply removing the regime in iraq. in a way to sum up the arguments however a principle in the bush administration said that we simply do not talk to evil.
2:31 pm
and as tony zinni said former central command commander if you like the rock you'll love the wrong. that is a 10 to 14 year 3 to $4.00 trillion dollar invasion at the end of which world western asia will look not much different than it does right now it'll still be in turmoil and still be in chaos and 70 plus 1000000 iranians will hate living. in the pentagon and i wanted to see undersecretary difference the idea is that wolfowitz shared with me in charge or at cheney in $9192.00 and retooling want to know why dallas briefed people like president america needs a new strategy of force. so there's this idea springs. i went through the pentagon in november of 2001 and one of the general said sure i got this memo on. we're going to go after 7 countries in 5 years.
2:32 pm
i said is that a classified memo to your. start with iraq and then we're going to move to syria lebanon libya somalia sudan and iran. i think it's highly probable the administration has already made the decision to go to war against iran there are already u.s. troops inside iran want to repeat that there are already u.s. troops inside iran the u.s. has long had its eyes set on trying to impact regime change in iran and much of what you've seen the u.s. doing with regards to iran has been on a covert level we've seen a report in new yorker by seymour hersh that a u.s. source told him that u.s. marines were operating in the blue key missouri and kurdish regions of iran have
2:33 pm
you ever heard of that report i've never heard of the report and never read the article nor do i intend to do you have any. as to whether or not as the u.s. ambassador i don't have any interest as to whether or not u.s. marines are actually operating in iran right now and i said i had not heard of the report and i didn't intend to read the article in the new yorker if i gave you this article right now walked it over would you look at it i don't think so honestly congressman because i don't i don't have time to read much fiction. we have teams inside iran and these include joint special operation forces most elite commando unit it has been given executive authority by the president as many as 12 countries to go in and kill we're talking about high value targets. they're operating now and they go into countries outside of the war zone side of afghanistan and outside of iraq without telling the american cia station chief for
2:34 pm
the american ambassador they go in sterile and they kill people. we have to work sort of the dark side if you will spend time in the shadows. a lot of what needs to be done here will have to be done quietly without any discussion methods that are available to our intelligence agencies. the doctrine that has endured from bush to obama is that the world is a battlefield and that the united states has the right to go into any country around the world to conduct what they call kinetic operations lethal operations regardless of what international law says. what is president obama's response to that how is he going to deal with he embraced the very covert shadow forces that
2:35 pm
a decade earlier had only been talked about in hushed tones in the pentagon not just as the implementers of a policy that said we should decapitate terror. networks and engage in preemptive strikes but they became the policy itself. president obama's administration have built up something called the disposition matrix is an algorithm for determining who should be killed or who should we seek to capture and one of the more sort of grotesque aspects of this is that there were actually meetings on tuesdays in the white house that have been nicknamed terror tuesday meetings where they're going through rosters of names to put on or take off the list maybe someone within that group has been in contact with someone that the u.s. is watching they went to the musée mosque is someone they keep ordering pizza from the same place as a taliban leader and you decide these guys are probably up to no good and so on this particular day we're going to remove them from planet earth that we're getting into minority report into the sort of side 5 world of p.j. did where it's justifiable homicide even though it's for that that might take place
2:36 pm
in the future it's ok to kill from a distance without a warrant without a trial without a jury and the execution takes place off screen. where appropriate we will bring the terrorists to justice. and. when we. do you why and so. do you why aren't. we why are. you. there we're going to.
2:37 pm
the horse of a woman. is worth paying attention to obviously i do not agree with much of what she said. the president is not implementing policies that we need to see change for example that he would stop the authorization of signature strikes which means killing people on the basis only of suspicious behavior that's led to the killing of many innocent people the question on my facebook page and asked them what they wanted to ask you when a lot of them said that you were hurting your own cause because one you appeared rude to the president of the united states and 2 you just seemed. a little crazy well i think killing innocent people with your own says rude i think not apologizing to the families of innocent people who are killed is rude there are a lot of rude things about our policies and i want to make sure that people understand actually drones have not caused a huge number of civilian casualties for the most part of their been very precise precision strikes against al qaeda how do you expect to be put up by the star not
2:38 pm
to have and the american sentiments in india which we heard about doing that act. more innocent than militant. well i do not believe that. there is any basis for your comment. so it's in. my money if i began to live above. us moment of blood from a dump them. yet he does feel the make yet ollie get to you don't let us make i. took from the moment i got no new man no no i get up. on the. drawing board and they set the lockheed martin boeing dime

is the disease a permanent war that destroyed the mental waste. aslambek fundamentalism. to empower all of those who profit from a more politically economically and militarily. make no mistake a nuclear armed iran is not a challenge that can be contained it would threaten the elimination of israel the security of gulf nations and the stability of the global economy. at risk triggering a nuclear arms race in the region and the un raveling of the nonproliferation treaty. and how close is iran to getting. well let me show you brought a diagram for. here's a darter. this is
2:41 pm
a bomb. this is a fuse. where should a red line be drawn. a red line should be drawn right here. the threat from iran is a political football what was interesting was that many israelis including people from the military said as long as there is an extensional threat somewhere somehow that is certainly helping us expand our budgets in ways that it's not possible to do in the absence on anything that can be defined as such as if you were a rand what would you do i mean israel has what 3 to 400 nuclear weapons they're the ones who started the damn arms race in the middle east anyway they didn't sign a non player for asian treaty they built this program in secret. india and pakistan then went on to do the same thing and iran would you did sign a new if you let on plan for a treaty looked around and realized they'd done screwed. ministration wants to sell
2:42 pm
bunker buster bombs which can penetrate 20 feet of solid concrete to the u.a.e. the deal is the latest us arms sale to members of the gulf cooperation council 6 nations that neighbor iran a foe it could be an atomic at least what i call bomb out to an atom what if anyone has become a commodity for several reasons one is because you need somebody to buy the stuff you bridou is another. u.s. arms deal with saudi arabia is. the biggest in history this deal unless a pos is the tonic global already 57. saw that it would does this enormous so is a recycling dom's trade. but it was also a business in another sense this is a business then uses war to get its hands established this is george orwell's 1904 was always going to be in battle and guess who's making out really well of course of the weapons neela's and the people involved.
2:43 pm
2:44 pm
ultimate manifestation of the national security state is that it not only seeks a perpetual state of war it will even go to all aeons to create that perpetual state of war i'm always reminded. of it long time ago.
2:45 pm
and that book has a beautiful sentence. i am going to physical man not because they don't exist but because you choose not to see. the you know the family this is ironic and eighties if you remember we had been on stage who were supporting the mujahideen to . afghanistan from the so gets. bled and came to thank me for my efforts to bring their merican says our friends to help get us the atheist he said the communist. went on and also been locked in this camp high in the mountains of afghanistan with an air raid shelter built into the living rock of a mountain 2530 feet high. camps built by the cia later they tried to cruise missiles and of course they knew where it was they built it. no wonder but
2:46 pm

2:47 pm
situation because we're trying to destroy it. in mali of a crime to give all the training. area. it really has the world gone mad but not enough to realize how mad. you really coming out why. americans are living in this kind of the world of no related and. where i'm. sure.
2:48 pm
there are good terrorists and. the bad terrorists those in yemen who the united states deems to be a threat the good those who are in syria the joke here is we've been there before i mean if you consider the of the honest on story they have learned nothing. today if i see the saudis are giving money to groups in syria that are not only a looser i would also. if you were a conspiracy theories or what i'm just trying to. in the moment of the condemned pretty. dangerous. insane. so what appears to have been a conspiracy at the time. when. we
2:49 pm
must address the cycle of conflict especially sectarian conflict that creates the conditions the terrorists prey upon in public we have to end terrorism meanwhile this. getting involved in conflicts is the part which produces character. which is reinforces the public narrative and then makes things like intervention ok. good morning everybody. last night on my orders america's armed forces began strikes against targets in syria # #. just ahead of airstrikes in syria defense firms lockheed martin northrop raytheon and general dynamics corp all set stock price records their shareholders
2:50 pm
are making money off the unusually large number of conflicts around the world. every 2 years or so the military. right after there is a trade show in which israeli weapon companies show their technology. israeli companies which are becoming increasingly important and very significant. depend on those wars the 1st thing that they say when they try to market we've already used i don't actually. by making that claim they're able to compete with weapon manufacturers from other countries. the united states is the biggest supplier of military aid to israel this attack on gaza also teisho for the united states arms industry.
2:51 pm
the i. think. iran and isis are competing for the crown of militant islam one calls itself the islamic republic the other calls itself the islamic state both want to impose a militant islamic empire 1st on the region and then on the entire world they just disagree among themselves who'll be the ruler of that important. in this deadly game of thrones there's no place for america. today after 2 years of negotiations the united states together were international partners has achieved something the decades of animosity has not a comprehensive long term deal with iran that will prevent it from obtaining a nuclear weapon this was a very difficult negotiations and part of it is because the. entrenched
2:52 pm
uncompounded mistrust that we have between ourselves mutually for the last 34 decades but i'm happy that reason people diplomacy pretty great people exercise great the look restraint and patience and vision beyond maybe automatic hope this will be a good beginning. as this nuclear deal goes through we're still dealing with the problem that the states of this region are collapsing and they're void that they will fail you will see more violence and you will see more weapons just important to understand that that's not a result of this deal that is a result of the paradigm not shifting towards demilitarization and collective security soon enough the saudis in need israelis are on the same page they worry about iran and then they do anything that's not new they've been worried for can they do anything about well they can get their own weapons. this is the region that
2:53 pm
has more arms per copied out than any other region in the world much thanks to the defense industry israel and some of the arab states are going to be able to buy more weapons and more advanced weapons. if the nuclear threat from iran is decreasing why should these other countries get a chance to actually arm themselves more pakistan is a friend of saudi arabia pakistan has nuclear weapons are you in discussions with pakistan about perhaps getting a nuclear bomb from pakistan wolf we've known each other for 20. you don't we expect me to answer this question. we're not going to have a truly demilitarize asian in the region unless israel's nuclear arsenal also is addressed. the significance of this peace deal is that it is a game changer in the region and it's going to be a question about the political willingness of leaders to whether they will pursue
2:54 pm
these opportunities or whether they will fall into the patterns of the past. and once you start a war. you open a kind of pandora's box you don't control it and control geo. the use of that kind of violence has unforseen consequence that no one can predict and it propels you. in directions you never fight you control your guts. so the images. are very carefully controlled and counter by
2:55 pm
the lies that are to some unaided through every institution in society schools government entertainment the press. when you shatter the myth and when you understand especially what techno war industrial war is about which is really about murder ups water people would be so repulsed be very hard to wait for .

a superhero movies. then i don't see them i don't see why i don't want to be a good reason. there are growing indications the west's anti russia's stance may be softening a case in point is the recent visit of france's top diplomat and defense minister or take for example the new york times editorial calling on trump to better relations with the kremlin as a way to block china an important question remains can moscow trust the west anymore.
