north sudan sensually trying to destroy them as independent entities in other words south sudan has to have at this stage a robust security establishment all of that said it is perfectly true that in south sudan as elsewhere in africa the behavior and the training of the military is not necessarily what we would like it also makes the training of military all the more important and it's interesting jonathan if i go to you i mean it's an interesting mix here i mean the united states has been spending enormous money amount of money on the security situation there and as it was pointed out on this program there's a heck of a lot of oil there i think there's an estimated six billion barrels of oil on the ground underground i mean so you have a very large security force and a lot of oil is not a good make speak why witness security forces be more interested in revenues. well it's important to keep in mind that the southern army of the sudan people's liberation army is the largest employer in south sudan by far this is going to be a country with very little employment opportunity now the

i love north carolina.ad school in the state, which means that a core part of my education took place in north carolina. it also means that i came of age politically in north carolina. the first time i ever cast a vote for the president of the united states, i cast that vote in the state of north carolina. and during my time as a north carolinaen, i was an escort for women seeking abortion, so when the protestors would come out and fight for women to seek medical attention in a difficult time, we would walk with these women, help them to walk the gauntlet, so those three things, education, voting rights, and reproductive rights, those are all part of my north carolina experience and it's why i love bev perdue. when i look at this woman, the first woman governor of north carolina, a democrat in charge, when the assembly is controlled by republicans for the first time in more than a century, and i say you are it. you and your uncommonly steely back bone are the thin blue line standing up against what they are

north sudan is it will be. their attitude towards the new country to the south can they make or break the possibility of a sovereign state a state that can actually take care of itself with all that oil by the way but nonetheless what cards they play to make or break a new country. well. they certainly have the potential if for example you have full scale warfare breaking out between south sudan sudan and the north the emergence of south sudan will become infinitely more complicated i note that according to the press this morning bashir will be in juba for the the end dependent state celebrations i hope that is correct because ever since the comprehensive peace agreements were signed the north has dragged its feet. on the process by shear himself openly and publicly accepts the end dependence of south sudan but bashir has an opposition he has an opposition in khartoum and there are others in khartoum who are not happy hour or about south sudan becoming independent not least because of the oil there is a kind of

any adversity of the parliament says that did not end the north korean war for that matter north korea says we are still at war with each other there's an armistice and in the north koreans are saying we have to sit down the same people with the americans and then we go to formally and the war and then we're going to discuss every scene including the nuclear program so this state that work and right was trying to joke they're going to said oh first you get rid of your nuclear weapons either that or. misses and then we talk so all those in our careers are going to watch them this special and what is going to watch is going to say look our position has been the same for the best if the years take it or leave it. point. you know everyone's been talking about ran. down face to face and talk and resolve their issues but do you see this likely is this likely to happen no no no it's not that we hear it's fascinating when you visit south korea and then you visit north korea and you home care the ideal logical divide and the wall of mistrust between two sides almost humanly impossible to find a

military incident with north korea we've also heard this week north korea is planning there were other major. military exercises on the western sea shore which is exactly the place where all of these incidents have happened before so the situation is becoming rather serious in terms of military confrontation and that with the help of the asli if there were some talks in process. because usually north korea is that. the talks. either with the u.s. or with south korea or indeed with the six party talks the provocations have not happened so i think there is an energy that is building up in all of these countries. trying to interrupt you but this by the talks that you were saying earlier that even the north in the north was actually willing to talk to the u.s. but from the perspective of the west north korea is often cited as a threat and and as refuse as a reason and that it needs comprehensive missile defense so how much of a threat really is the country's nuclear capability. personally i don't think it is a threat in the sense that north korea would use it to attack so korea or japan or

viewed by the common man in the north. if you're plowing their own field, making your living, costly been told about slavery is all good for blacks. i think the average person had a belly full of southern aristocrats. a real bellyful. i think had a lot of pent-up feeling about that. in fact, one southerner made a speech, maybe in congress, i forget, some of you historic may remember this, in which maybe it was fitzhugh or one of those southern writer said the laboring classes with the minefield of humanity. meaning the thing announced where you wipe your boot. it was this idea that southerners, not all southerners because most southerners were average farmers and workers, too. but the leadership of the south, you know, arrogance, putting in the face of the common man. i think they -- they just wanted to with those those. lincoln really appealed to them. lincoln may have been a nobody before he became president. he knew how to reach the common man. people rose up to fight, and fight, i mean, listen, the minute the war start

as we head into north america, i want to show you what's happening down here with dora. you can see the way that the system over the 24-hour forecast starts to dissipate and fall apart. well, it is now already a category 1 system, and i think that by tonight, that is u.s. local time, it should be a tropical storm. but it is going to be moving fairly close to the baja peninsula as it heads to the north and to the west. wind speeds are at 150 kilometers an hour with stronger gusts. right here at the end of peninsula, you can see the pinch area. this is our tropical storm warning. so you will be having the thunderstorms and storm surge as well. high waves to be dealing with into the next 24 to 48 hours. all right. as we head now up to the big picture, severe storms are going to be pushing along the northern tier of the u.s. around i think the heaviest rain is going to be in north dakota, maybe south dakota getting some of that as well as montana. as for up toward canada, alberta and saskatchewan, maybe moderate showers out here. they won't be as intense. showers will be pus

escobar says that would be tough as the north has always seen the u.s. as hostile which makes a little bit of desperation especially because when you look at the build clause which is you can dismantle it you nuclear program first and then we decided to talk to you that's an absolute no no i was in north korea last year and i confirmed from north korean officials directly debt this state awfully is the same state of glee as it was fifty eight years ago to morrow to morrow is that fifty eight and in verse three of the armistice that did not end the north korean war for that matter north korea south korea are still at war with each other if there's an armistice and the north koreans are saying we have to sit down the same date with the americans and then we go to formally and the war and then we're going to discuss everything including the nuclear program so this state the bargain i was trying to jump the gun to said ok first you get rid of your nuclear weapons you know that bombed on missiles and then we talk so all visited north koreans are going to watc

says north korea. must dismantle its nuclear facilities before any deal can be reached joining us now here we are of the campaign to end the korean war thanks very much for joining us on the program first of all is there a will in north korea to return to the negotiating table. well we should say that north korea because issue has always been consistent it's always there everything is on the table for negotiation as long as the united states is sincere in ending the current state of war on the korean what. this means first of all is signing a peace treaty to declare a formal end to the korean war respecting each other sovereignty and a commitment to non-aggression so that there is a basis of mutual trust to go on to talking about the things that really matter which are eliminating nuclear weapons withdrawing all foreign troops establishing a peace mechanism and then finally leaving the fate of the korean peninsula up to the korean people to decide or having said that though has south korea and the u.s.

but the reality is north korea does not provide a threat to south korea or the u.s. and the reality also is that the u.s. and south korea are facing an economic crisis where their tax dollars can be better spent on rebuilding their domestic economies and unproductive war games that have already cost us lives on the korean peninsula last year there is one thing that distinguishes north korea from other nuclear weapon states in the world and that is that it is the only country that has said that it's willing to give them up in exchange for a guarantee that the u.s. will. tackett and north korea has been very consistent it has said that everything is on the table as long as the us is the fear but it has to be a process of mutual disarmament you can't realistically expect north korea to simply give up its only deterrence capability unless the us is also willing to take steps and an end to its provocative war games that simulate the collapse of the north korean regime is a good start. all agreement appears no closer between the u.s. and russia on how to develop missile de

the north. we have letters from the british investor that shows that. but the secretary of state had a different plan. he believed that committee could provoke a foreign war, that would reunite the north and the south. then you have a common enemy. and there was no greater common enemy at that time than britain could of course, that failed. by the time stewart realized that, it was too late. the second tragedy is that southern propagandists, which was much better than the north, when it went to england, the line that they gave this was that the north is fighting for empire and the south is fighting for freedom. the horrible, horrible tragedy is that britain took that line and believed it. and the north did not help its cause, particularly with the draft fight in 1863 in new york city where hundreds of african- americans were murdered by an irish-led mob. europe said that the north were hypocrites. it treats its free black citizens disgustingly. so why should we support the north over the south.
