it took pearl harbor. >> host: went to world leaders get behind closed doors to they like to each other? >> the main reason is there is not a great deal of trust to begin with when the two leaders get behind closed doors. states cannot trust each other very much and reagan hit the nail on the head when he said trust but verify. he said you have to verify they are telling the truth. separate it would be the highly unusual circumstance where one leader is in a position where he or she can bamboozle another leader. you don't see much of that. you see some but not much. >> when you see a president having a special relationship with another world leader does that tell you anything about the truth level? >> if it is usually a function of strategic factors. franklin d. roosevelt had a special relationship of four. and that was very intense the year before pearl harbor because he wanted the united states to be involved very much and fdr wanted to get us into the war so they worked hand in hand to do everything they could to get the united states into the war. they have a special relationship bu

so i first set foot in america in pearl harbor. and so i arrive inside the navy housing at pearl harbor, the daughter of an enlisted serviceman who was a valet. that's what you wanted if you were a filipino, to be a valet or steward in the homes of the admiral, and i began my american journey. here i am on my fifth birthday with my other class mates there, the girls in the neighborhood and my little brother who's rather confused where he fits in, but he found his way. [laughter] so that really began my ethnic journey. one of the things i struggled with was trying to fit in. your height, your size, your color, et, et, don't set the stereotype of what's typically american. you constantly struggle to find a place where you really fit in. i learned to resolve this by saying, you know, it's not so bad being the underdog. first of all, you know, you look different, people remember you, right? and you're also hungry for opportunities because you want to move out of your condition. you don't want to be poor again. you don't want people to

it took pearl harbor to get us into the war. >> professor when the world leaders get behind closed doors to the lie to each other? >> hardly ever and the main reason is that there's not a great deal of trust to begin with went to world leaders get behind closed doors. states tend not to trust each other very much. ronald reagan really hit the nail on the head when he said trust but verify. he said you really can't trust people you have to verify that they are telling the truth. so, it's really going to be a highly unusual circumstance where one leader is in a position where he or she can bamboozle another leader. so you just don't see much of that kind of lie. you see some for sure but not much. >> when you see a president having a special relationship with another world leader does that tell you anything about their truest level? >> i think it usually is a function of strategic factors. winston churchill and franklin d. roosevelt had a special relationship before and that relationship was very intense in the year before pearl harbor because winston churchill wanted the united states to

because you're overlooking the fact it's a little bit like asking here human nagasaki without pearl harbor it is the response to express the moral more than with a moral reprehensible any of what was done in the first instance it's not the government doesn't go on pick people off the street and next to keep them it's because and i certainly believe you've got to have a trial gotta have due process you have to have security that's you know or excuse me you're quoting this with war no i'm just saying that it's wrong to just look at the public and we've had an isolation from not because of the the the sentence to be against but if if a life sentence in prison is actually more painful if our goal is retribution and if there's a possibility of rehabilitation if rehabilitation is our goal. i do i just. i don't see any possible rationalization for a society that calls itself civilized to say we teach that it's wrong to kill but we're going to kill but i don't think that we're teaching bad it's wrong to kill without justification tom if i was attacking you you would have a right of self-defense to

the second point is a convention type of pearl harbor is unlikely to happen. secretary panetta mentioned in june the next pearl harbor we could confront would be a cyberattack that cripples our financial systems and our governmental systems. i do not minimize the need to protect our fleet from any sort of attack. we have done an extraordinarily good job of that in the norfolk area with high-tech defensive systems. this is not the same type of situation when people have talked about what happened at pearl harbor in 1941. another point is that less expensive home porting operations do exist. our navy's own studies identify other less expensive options to sustain the facility at mayport, and i do believe that sustaining mayport as a navy town is very important to the interest of our country and to that region. it's an important naval base. but we have a clear responsibility to find more cost-effective, more strategicically responsible ways to do that. again, if i had $1 billion, i would put it in two ships. if i were looking for the right kind of ship to go to ma

this is not pearl harbor.o, why is it my students, to whom i am very detached, are people in this thing, why should they have to be in the military if not for the sugar palm of people think in them in airport -- because that is not going to happen. this was derived in part from my last book -- "bridging the military-civilian divide." that is really the issue here. the fact that the military at this point is a very small portion of our society. less than 1% of people are currently in uniform. they increasingly feel that as civilians just don't care. my goal is to give the military -- first of all, to give the military base sense of its own worth that is not dependent on the wind, the cold winds, the warmer winds, of hugging and airports or public approbation. host: here are the numbers to call if you would like to join. and we do have a lineup before active members -- the number four active members of the military, 737-2579. you have been at enable -- naval academy for 24 years. what did you hear from the incom

this is kind of the franklin roosevelt start of world war ii by selecting the japanese to bomb pearl harbor and that got us into world war ii. but i think lincoln was aware that i send the ship, he was aware of everything. he had sent spies to charleston. security was in that tight. so we knew by sending the ships that pretty much they were going to fire. so i think lincoln put jefferson davis in the top spot. if jefferson davis didn't fire and he resupplied afford and threw in more men, what does that show to france and great britain that the confederacy couldn't defend afford in the second most populous city in the confederacy? so davis felt that he had to do it. and i think lincoln -- i think lincoln may have hoped that there would be no more. after all, if he sent an end and there was no war, that would have suited him to. okay? he wasn't interested in starting the war. if it was going to start he wanted to start it in a way that would rally the union, which it did. when he did that by design and whether he bumbled into it is a debate that historians are still debating. yes, sir. >> i'v

eye make the claim that he saw the events of pearl harbor and otheother things that you alreay mentionedrior on the air and that he was a visionary in those aspects, but he was caught in contemporary times in basically the time period that he was writing. and -- >> ok. >> caller: that's my perspecti perspective. >> ok. thanks very much for that. susan beegle, we need to get to 1961 at some point and his death. he died at his own hand. that's correct? >> write. ernest hemmingway committed suicide in 1961. it's a very complex question. lots of dirent reasons for it. but first, let me start out by saying that hemmingway did suffer from what we believe now is a bipolar, depressive mood disorder and that it was an inherited one. hemmingway's father committed suicide in 1929, actually, as hemmingway was returning to key west. and of the six hemmingway children, he was one of six children, three wound up committing suicide and very sadly, this is also traveled into a third generation. so, he suffered from depression and mood swings all of his life. he dealt with it i think very heroicly. contri

coming you've heard these conspiracy theorists saying that fdr invited the japanese attack on pearl harbor, or someone was secretly behind the attacks on 9/11. but i really do think that lincoln was sort of thinking several chest moves ahead of jefferson davis in this situation, and may even with that sort of masterstroke -- masterstroke, i was a winning the war but keeping the confederacy from winning the war, the crucial moment. so my lincoln is a lincoln who goes from this sort of uncertain and in some ways bubbling guy to i think biden the end of my book, a few months into his presidency, becoming well on his way to the great leader, a great president that we think of today. >> and was -- unfair question, was it union or slavery? >> i think for lincoln, union and slavery were sort of inseparable causes. because the reason that the south was seceding was because of slavery, and it was because of his stand that northerners were taking where they were willing to yield no further to what they called the slave power. and this result had been decreed by the outcome of the national election,

was it over when the germans bombed pearl harbor? hell no! >> germans? >> forget it. over now! because when the going gets tough -- the tough get going! who's with me? let's go! hey! >> i cannot -- you cannot watch that and not get motive ated. >> that was actually a really good depiction. up until yesterday, that was members of the tea party and john boehner running out. >> and john boehner was alone until yesterday. >> exactly. very good depiction. did you think of that? >> i thought -- i didn't actually write the script back in the 1970's. i was mature enough to enjoy it, though. >> john landis wrote the script but it's great taking us back to when the germans bombed pearl harbor. >> which might not be true because i've watched oliver north's "war stories". that's not the way it plays out. >> all right. meanwhile, straight ahead on this thursday telecast, the obama administration's fail-safe, blaming george w. bush for our bad economy. well, next up, a former member of the bush administration gets his chance to rebutt the president. >> and i'll take butt kicking fo

except for pearl harbor. so to me it was a place you could make a difference in terms of the national security of the united states and in terms of protecting your community and moving it forward. as you know, we also had some of the economic challenges. it still confronts to us this is the place where you can make a difference. >> why are so many members of the house running for president? and not one sitting u.s. senator? >> there's three of us. you have to ask the senate. i don't know. usually it is the senate that winds up doing it. so i'm not sure. i know there are a lot of people that have passed on this, not just in the senate. i think in many ways it shows a healthy respect for the political ability of the president. no one is under any illusions as to the fact that he is a very spirited campaigner, has been very successful, and has had a rapid assent to the oval office. for republicans, i think a lot of them were look at it in terms of being a difficult race and had also declined on the basis of thei

you a statement by secretary of defense leon panetta who noted in recent testimony that the next pearl harbor we confront could very well be a cyberattack that cripples our power systems, our grid, our security systems, our financial systems, our governmental systems. it's no secret that the internet has become a critical component of our day to day lives. every day across the globe over two billion users get online to shop, do business, connect with friends and family and a host of other activities. cybersecurity affects clearly our national defense, all of our businesses, our schools, our seniors, in effect all of us. indeed while the internet has become one of our strongest capabilities it has also emerged as a stunning vulnerability. we need only to look at recent cyberattacks on sony, lock heed martin and other enterprises to witness the combrord damage that can be caused from anywhere in the world. at relatively little cost to those that care he out these actions. hackers become more sophisticated by the hour. an attack could cripple fort drum, could cripple our national security, could

like pearl harbor, 9/11 can be described as a day that will live in infamy forever. with pearl harbor with all of its pain and sacrifice, an end to that conflict finally came and normalcy was restored to our country after some years, but our enemy today continues its search for ways to bring pain and suffering to americans. they keep searching for technology and weapons, and ten years later we're still fighting them. and as we near the tenth anniversary of 9/11, it's important for us to remember what brought us to this point. and that's why i am so proud and grateful to see the senate unanimously approve this legislation, which as we approach the tenth anniversary of 9/11 calls on our country to pause, not september 11 for a moment of remembrance. what's planned is that at 1:00 p.m. eastern time that day, all americans will call upon to cease all work and activity and spend a moment in silence reflecting on what happened on 9/11, 2001. our local, state and national institutions from sports teams to railroads to broadcasters and places of worship will be called upon t
