. >> anders will offer the rebuttal. each team will have three minutes. >> this is a debate we need to have. first of all, what kind of a power is russia today? you seem to suggest that we don't know what russia wants. isis very clear that russia a revisionist power. president putin has said and that the end of the soviet union was the greatest geopolitical catastrophe in the last century. article saying 1939,itler was good until when he gathered the lands of austria, the sudetenland peacefully. this is the most official newspaper we see in russia today. what has happened is that putin speech onde a grand the importance of a russian speaking people in that it must be brought together. , how can we stop putin? there are two answers. one is that we stop them with war, which inevitably is happening now. so little has been done to stop them. or we really throw in everything, in terms of sanctions, in order to stop them. can we stop them with sanctions? i am not sure. i would certainly try to do something, rather than talking

in norway, anders breivik had broadcast what he was going to do. there are signals that the lone wolf would be doing something spectacular. then there is the role of enablers. for instance, prisons, the internet or previous military experience. then there are catalytic agents. there could be personal or political triggering events. timothy mcveigh went through radicalization after an experience in the first gulf war. he developed a loathing for the federal government. and he wasn't for state rights. you have all these basketcase folks who may be radicalized in one or many ways. then there are what we called stochastic terrorism. basically folks like zawahiri and bin laden, al-awlaki, uploading videos and exhorting their al qaeda brethren to engage in lone wolf attacks. that would be a stochastic process where the perpetrators of the attack are what some terrorists call "missiles," actually. what do terrorist organizations achieve using lone wolf terrorism? i will focus on how terrorist organizations might utilize lone wolf attackers. what do they a

money andere is my you tell me what i should invest in.blem is the rules that govern iras in particular are weaker than the rules that protect individuals in a 401(k). this new rule is trying to address that. it's trying to strengthen consumer protections. it it says the standard to which we hold the people who give the advice, if you go to the bank and say this is $100,000 and i want to invest that, the rules that govern that advice are being strengthened. there are two things here. the rule has a lot of different pieces to it. ups the standard. it raises the bar to which we hold the advisors. giving advice are on how people should invest, you are being held to the same standard that someone who gives advice to a 401(k). the distinction is here that it used to be you gave only suitable advice. the other new rule is it discloses more of the fees that the advisor gets. sometimes you as an investor bringing your money and you pay some fees to the advisor. sometimes the advisor makes money. there are range of different options. they will get

investment, to turn them into this amazing world -- warrior that is able to support the country, fight , andere around the world then we look at the investment when it is time for them to come out. if you compare the two there is obviously a lot more that we can do. rebrand that 22-year-old that we just told nothing was impossible? if i can address the previous question about conversations. what we want to be able to do is for thehe conversation veteran in higher education. we want businesses to be selfish ask they approach us and what is the return on investment? the return on investment for hiring a vet. we partner with military family research institute from purdue university and we want to prove quantitatively that if you hire a vet, this is your return. we know that everyone dollar was invested in a vet, seven dollars wee returned in the economy want to reshape how vets are viewed. we have a higher success rate with veterans than on veterans, anecdotally, we have some data. there was also the higher unemployment data. can you address that? why do you think that is quest to mark -- why that

two of the police officer anders were committed by -- i think we have to look at the psychological effectterans and how the war in vietnam or iraq -- there are similarities we're missing that we could really use and may be have our veterans have a two week are and weeks rest and relaxation like astronauts do. it could really help our military, as well. thank you for listening. have a great day. guest: that is an excellent point. i think the problem of the returning veterans is something we could learn a lot from in looking at vietnam and the war today. thathing to keep in mind i'm surprised people have not done more with is that 1969 was the year in which we would first hear more about this thing fracking -- low down in the military, trying to kill their superiors because they have grown so distrustful of the mission in vietnam. being so opposed without being able to articulate it. and i think the notion that those people will be coming back into the country and how they are treated when they come back into the country is something that i think the country did a iod job of during vietnam

money andere are resources attached to it as well.that goes along way to answering if it is just ideology or an organization. question over here. turkey and i might -- i am a consultant. thing i noticed, i just checked every page of the report. i have not seen one word about turkey and the reports. i would like to ask the question regarding the atv. thatnk it is a coincidence it is spelled like action. there is a connection there. march 19 aboutle the wrong enemy. aboutt book talking regardingwith u.s. the times they played with double-faced. also, i would like to talk about article in the london book review on the subject of turkish intelligence to syrian al qaeda groups. >> to continue down the ideology route, i should note i think it is an idea on ideology as well as an organization. please don't take that as contradiction. even if you do not see signs of organizational connection or proof of this, that does not mean this group does not have a connection to al qaeda core objectives, and therefore, we can sort of ignore them. that a

money, ander much whatever that value is, they are given the authority to extract those sorts of tariffs against whatever part of the offending economy's that they choose. our dollar devalues, with the reciprocal be true? when i traveled to ireland a number of years ago, our dollar was weaker, and the end of spending a lot more money over there. >> absolutely. don't mistake changing values of currency for currency manipulation. in a free trade environment, currencies ought to move just like commodities, any ind of things that move trade, currency ought to do the same thing. what happens when countries choose to manipulate currency, if they deliberately go into the financial market, and by of up dollars, then you get the artificial and balance. that is what economies around the world have been arguing relative to chinese behavior. what needs to be disciplined. no surprise, we have a little bit of a difference of opinion here. we do agree that currency is a real issue. the chamber does not agree that a trade agreement is the right vehicle to address it. nothave ministers of trade, finance

and all the things that make so great.ry and each year michelle and i host a few hundred service andersd wounded warriors their families right here on the lawn for a barbecue and fireworks on the mall. some of the service members unique.his year are because they signed up to serve. sacrifice. their livesto give to the security of this country, even though they weren't yet americans. that's how much they love this country. they were prepared to fight and did notan america they yet fully belong to. i think they've earned their stripes in more ways than one. on friday morning we're going to naturalize them in a ceremony right here at the white house. this independence day will be their first day as american citizens. one of the things we celebrate on friday, one of the things this country great is that we are a nation of immigrants. our people come from every of the globe. that's what makes us special. us unique. makes throughout our history we've come here in wave after wave from everywhere, understanding that there was something about where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

many of the more right wing anders who are all younger sort of amendment 13 party they said the u.s., it netanyahu did not go far enough and advocated israel to read occupy for however long it takes to stamp out hamas. netanyahu is not willing to it realizes himself he isn't feasible but he faces his own party. the chair of the central committee and who was the deputy minister until netanyahu fired him the first week of the war for criticizing the government's approach is convening the party congress later this month where no doubt there will be nothing but lots of vocal criticisms on the conduct of the war. outside of netanyahu's party as i mentioned is the jewish home party is much more popular now than it was. bennett is taking serious strides to capitalize on that. he announced he would like to make changes to the constitution that would make it a more secular party which is significant because he's looking to appeal to the right and for the first time i believe he actually has a shot at being the bearer of the right and perhaps even becoming pregnant mr. and so all these things a

issues i discuss make it harder and harder for people to imagine a hopeful future, it is easy to anger andereusionment. trust in our vital institutions historic lows. it is up to all of us to rebuild that trust. that happens one person at a time, one politician at a time, when police officer at a time. one community leader at a time. it begins with respect, gologue, and the courage to out in peace. that is exactly what we saw with two of your affiliate presidents .

it is imperative that anderences among countries domestic policies and capacity building and economictructure. addressing climate change should not deny the legitimate did needs of developing countries to reduce poverty and improve their people's living standards. ladies andgues, the paris conference is not the finishing line but the new starting point as an important part of global governance can be taken as a mirror to reflect on what motives to have for future global governance and how to build a community of shared future for mankind. much valuable inspiration may thus be joined. we should create a future of the with eachoperation country contributing according to the best of its ability. view ofhe narrowminded the zero-sum game. assume all countries to shared responsibilities. create a future of the rule of law. it is imperative to assure effective observance and of international rules and justice. the principle of common but differentiated responsibility must continue to be adhered to. we must create a future of inclusiveness and common learning. andust increase dialogue achieve

ander patrol experts preach intelligence driven, risk-based approach that focuses resources on the places where our surveillance and intelligence tells us the threat exists. we must be prepared to move. i believe in this approach. it is a smart, effective, efficient use of resources. i also believe in smart and effective use of our resources when it comes to removals. we must prioritize our resources on those who represent threats to national security, public safety, and border security. in the senate confirmation process, i pledged to continually evaluate our priorities to ensure that we get this right. i have already begun this process. we must also continually review conditions that test at our detention facilities to ensure that they are safe and humane. we are gratified by the support that congress has provided to our border and port security efforts. we need the additional border and port security resources that immigration reform, such as legislation, would provide. in this regard, the republicans recent statement of principles on immigration is a serious step forward on reform and

i want to din -- ander diet answers. -- and erudite answers. i want to begin by focusing on human trafficking. you have a great record on human trafficking. i count 10 major prosecutions that you've done while united states attorney, focusing particularly on targeted sex trafficking while also pursuing labor trafficking. and in a case that you brought against the 7-eleven franchise, you stated publicly that the defendants were running a modern day plantation system and the system looked a lot like modern day slavery. you brought the case relying on statutes relating to immigration enforcement and identity theft and wire fraud, not on the statutes that specifically focused on criminalizing human trafficking. i wonder whether you could relate to us whether you think those statutes need to be strengthened, if you couldn't in a sense rely on them to bring those cases based on human traffic, whether we should perhaps strengthen them, and in particular the trafficking victims protection act of 2000 provided mandatory restitution for trafficking victi

theological perspective, but what i'm saying is as in the dos a person, i do not want to see any religious ander even greeted by american politician with a president. i'm not for difficult christianity, for safe -- per se. in the book, in the manual, it says that god made man in his own image. i am agnosticons, . i believe, by do not worship. anduld like to say, from partisan perspective, why would boo at their convention at the message of god, but because this pope believes in their agenda of global warming and anti-capitalism, they embrace them. guest: just as a point of fact, i was seleka at the last convention, and at no time did anybody at the convention boo when god was mentioned. in fact, we had the invocation, and at the end, the closing cardinal dolan. just actually, that is incorrect. art ofas people who th at faith or no fai all, i am mindful of the fact percentage of the country is not catholic. certainly, no one is try to force upon others their specific point of view. something that has been very little talked about as part of pope francis' coming to the usa being the first pontiff
