fall apart into emirates like libya or into smaller hotbeds of instability like somalia sudan iraq or afghanistan. or do you think france fredricka is serious foreign policy. of course france should take a neutral stance and cease this policy of double standards remember the pussy riot case which started massive outrage in the west with western media calling russia a dictatorship it doesn't seem to any sleep protests were raging in bahrain a tiny kingdom in the gulf seven protesters were sentenced to life in prison you see a life sentence is different to say the least from a two year sentence for pussy riot and all those bahrainis did was take part in a political protest but nobody in the west spoke of that because the u.s. fifth fleet is based in bahrain that country is protected by nato and this can no longer be tolerated and i believe that france should revert to its traditional policy of restoring. just as in international relations this is the role we should play instead of taking sides about. what has the new french president brought to people friends. mr all and got elected on promises he

could be collateralized in the futures market to say well look aston could be dropped over in iraq or afghanistan or a competitive pool for some oil maybe you know look at the states match you know i'm saying and maybe if i was to offer that sort of service that could be a prison sentence maybe so let's get this straight if you. or a private equity head like mitt romney you could repackage the loot into an infinitely real hypothecated collateralize looted each of them close bond how much money do you think you could react powerfully key on let's say two hundred pounds worth of looted each of them clothes that would be worth what on the riyadh publication market i believe it was somewhere the region of two hundred twenty four fires a billion dollars. yet what exactly in other words you yourself if you were able to simply continue to read hypothecate this little makes them close you could bail out greece singlehandedly i believe yeah i don't believe there's a demand for the service and you know i was this incinerator food this morning where they were actually talking about have the city of london i

. >> there are more than 50 triple or quadruple amputees from the wars in iraq or afghanistan. u.s. government gives them $65,000 to build or modify a home. it often costs several times that. that has led to a new mission for the tunnel to towers foundation. it began after 9/11 to honor new york firefighter steven siller who ran through the brooklyn battery tunnel to the twin towers and gave his life trying to save others. his brother, frank siller is the foundation's chairman and says they will build 11 new homes for wounded veterans this year. >> they want their own life. these are americans that paid a big price. the houses have to be designed for them to live comfortably, not just today but for the rest of their lives. >> reporter: with private donations, they built this $600,000 home for dominguez in california where he wanted to live. >> tuck them against the walls. it will be fine. >> reporter: the house has an elevator and an ipad that allows him to control the lighting, the shades and open the front door. >> this is my favorite feature of the house. >> the microwave. >

libya, i mean, other than iraq or afghanistan or pakistan, libya has probably got to be one of the most dangerous places in the world. it's just come out of a war, it's barely a country and we have the ambassador traveling around with no armed marines? i mean, it on the face of it is it one of the worths decisions i've ever heard of. >> neil, congressional reporter for "roll call." >> i want to shift just slightly still however somewhat on the subject of libya. your political action committee is running campaign ads against democrats who have supported funding for libya as well as pakistan and egypt. i was -- you've gotten criticism from fellow republicans, including senator lindsay graham and senator john mccain on that sort of effort that you've launched, to speak a little bit about how you intend to move the party and if you think you're going to have the momentum going forward. >> i think if you ask people, i've told people, i think i can go to the kentucky democrat convention, stand in front of all democrats, and tell them, you know what? we don't have enough money to be sending mo

so what happens a lot of times is that men and women will come back from serving in iraq or afghanistan and they might return to their community and find they are in a place where no one else served. on the front line the evin experience as combat and they can actually feel isolated so one of things we have to do is we have to make sure that people are connected to their families come to their teammates and community. that's one thing we have to do. the second thing that we found especially as the mission continues is one of the ways to actually step out of those difficult moments is to create that new mission said that you are not stuck in a place where you are worried about what's happened. what me to do is create a commission for people when they come home, and we found for our fellows some of whom were in very difficult situations and were even considering committing suicide and some of whom had a serious cases of post traumatic stress for rifles underneath the bed having trouble the and on college campuses, what happened for them is when they felt like they were needed again, when

members of the achilles freedom team of wounded vets - most of whom lost limbs while fighting in iraq or afghanistan. as part of their rehabilitation, they meet up in cities around the country to compete. "we're all injured around the same time... overcome obstacles together... that's.. push each other along" this afternoon, they were treated to a vip reception at the willis tower sky deck along with many of their friends and family members. team members say they are excited to continue their tradition. "it's really big to me to continue the tradition paving.. we're happy to be in chicago" >> it only took six days for registrations to close for. this for.. that is a new recor this race... that is a new record. >> if you park your car in the city be aware of the parking restrictions along the marathon route... they going to affect overnight at 1:00 a.m.. street closures along a route begin at 7:00 a.m.. i expected to be open by 430 tomorrow afternoon >> one man was killed and two teenagers were injured in a shooting this afternoon in the back of the yards neighborhood. the three were shot near a park

some 2.4 million soldiers have been through iraq and afghanistan and the psychological toll of the wars is mounting. the last year the veterans of ministration, or, treated almost 100,000 iraq and afghanistan veterans for ptsd. but many agree that the numbers could be much higher because not everyone who suffers seeks treatment. here in colorado springs, the commanders at fort carson have come under scrutiny for its handling of mental health concerns, with a 2010 joint npr- propublica investigation finding that as many as 40% of fort carson soldiers had mild brain injuries missed by army health screenings. meanwhile, in 2009, the colorado springs gazette published a startling series called " casualties of war." examined a part of war seldom discussed by the media or government officials -- the returning tolty of civilian life after being trained on a killer. the story focused on a single battalion based at fort carson in colorado springs, the second battalion, 12th of a tree regiment. the battalion's nickname is " lethal lawyers." in iraq, the unit fought in some of the war's bloodiest battles. for some of the soldiers, the killing did not end w

you have afghanistan or you were deployed to iraq, so they are not prepared for what they see. and again would you like me to tell you something about the kind of scenes that they having combat? they face a number of things and one of the things that they face is that there is no frontline. they don't know who the enemy is. they have no idea, and they may be in a crowd when people are standing together talking, and okay they are speaking in another language and they say one thing and they will tell us, we are so glad you are here to help us and the other languages something else. all of a sudden boom, it's the person in the crowd maybe even a child. so that is one. there is a language problem. again another issue of the language problem is a car drives by and a soldier on patrol says, stopped. do you understand stop in arabic? no. so the cargoes on, the soldier as is required of him, shoots through the car window, opens the door, finds a woman and a couple of kids dead and starts to cry. how do you feel? guilty? miserable? so that is one side, they don't know who their enemy is

to afghanistan or were deployed to iraq. and so they are less prepared for what they see and, again, would you like me to tell you something about the kind of scene that they have in combat? >> host: what they face, yes. >> guest: well, they face a number of things, and one of the things that they face is that there is no front line. they don't know who the enemy is. they have no idea. and, um, they may be in a crowd where people are standing together talking and, okay, they're speaking in another language, and they say one thing, and they'll tell us we're so glad you're here to help us, and the other language is something else. and all of a sudden, boom, it's the person in the crowd may even be a child. that you'd least expect. so that's one. there's a language problem. again, another issue of the language problem is a car drives by, and a soldier on patrol says, stop. well, do you understand stop in arabic? no. so the car goes on, the soldier -- as is required of him -- shoots through the car window, opens the door, finds

every serviceman or woman who has lost their life serving in iraq or afghanistan, we have done a personalizedlt for and the army national guard has come and picked those quilts up and they deliver them to the families. it makes you feel like you're a part of something greater than yourself. i think i've switched from being "it's all about mitch" to realizing that there's a lot more out there and i left a lot of damage in my wake that i need to fix. i've been working trying to do that. >> mr. swallows, outstanding. that's all i can say about him. he's been down a long time. no anger, nothing, just doing what he's supposed to be doing. >> there you go. >> thank you, mitch. have a good night. >> appreciate it. >> see you first thing in the morning. >> all right. >> as you can see, they're really children's scissors. but we do thousands of quilts with them. last year, we did over 1,000 quilts. the year before, 916. we made some great quilts. to the gentlemen's credit, they do it with these. it's unbelievable. >> still at the end of the day, even children's scissors are safely secured. >> all scis

iraq or entangled in syria. he wanted to pull a george bush halloween mask. it's not the neo cartoon with the ads in the campaign. that romney wanted to stay in iraq or afghanistanmney did a good job of pushing back on that. >> i do think he looked like a statesman. he landed so many blows. we're not going to remember this debate. we're going remember the first debate, especially if romney wins. he came across as a statesman and might have thrown obama off. i thought it was going to be continuation of the second debate. >> greta: it's unbelievable the people still watching these debates. >> this is a grind and has so much intensity. there are a lot of people that can be swayed. from this point on, 14 days could decide it. >> greta: what would you say to people undecided at this point? >> i think the classic profile for undecided voter is someone that voted for president obama four years ago and still likes him and believes the promise he represented but doesn't feel like things have moved in the right direction. that has been the hurdle for mitt romney and that is what made the debates so critical. to go toe to toe with the president to look like a possible alte

time that they first lost their son because he didn't commit suicide on the battlefield of iraq or afghanistan, but when he came home. >> guest: that's a whole other issues is when veterans come home. they have to readust. they miss their dud -- buddies. they come home numb. you work constantly in combat. you never allow yourself time. is there time for mourning? one vet said they had so many fatalities rather than having a service every time, it was tuesday and fridays. you're numb. you don't have time to mourn when you lose a buddy or time to feel terrible when you see children, dead bodies of children, or a time to feel anger, and for me, there's a tremendous intertwaining of anger and grief which people don't realize, and if you're in the military culture, anger is more acceptable than sorrow. you're not supposed to feel sad. we don't even have the word "sad" -- we get depressed, but sadness? so here comes this young man, jeff. he changed. he's not the jeff he used to be. his parents don't understand, and like most veterans, they are in terrible pain. they have nightmares. what do they do?

presenting himself in the last debate as a peace nick, who said, i don't want to have another iraq or afghanistan. you know, he took back every single position -- this is, of course, what colin powell was alluding to -- to be involved with dick cheney, completely undoes that. dick cheney is the foreign policy who supposedly disowning last week. >> that's why i feel like this is important because i feel like the way the beltway is talking about this and the way mitt romney as a politician is being communicated to the country right now is he's pivoted to the center, he's showing his moderate side. he had to appear to be conservative in order to get the nomination. now he wants the country to know how moderate he is. he's doing a kitchen sink approach with he's doing everything all at once. he's still doing dick cheney, glenn beck, sending paul ryan to alabama and all these other places where he can speak freely. >> exactly. >> while he's making the moderation turn at the same time. that can't be tenable. >> no. no one knows who the real mitt romney is, as, you know, he's a hologram, really, and it

the response that we are withdrawing from iraq or afghanistan. we are not going to have a war on terror is know a response that sell wtsd american people. >> the way the information was disseminated to the people-- the state department did this on the eve of the hearing, through a conference call, they called a conference call from the media to tell them all at once. they left fox news off the list i. how unfortunate! >> was that an accident? do you think? or that was deliberate? we have been heard hard on them on the whole business about the youtube. they have apologized. what do you make of that? >> it's very hard to believe it's an accident. but i would like to know -- i guess we don't know who the senior official was. one state department senior official on september 12, the day after the attack, patrick kennedy, undersecretary for management, briefed the congressional staff members thatta it was in fact, a terrorist attack. if he is the same person giving the "on the record" briefing tonight, he is being consistent with when he said a month

. >>> of 31 new recruits near early all of military veterans who is served in iraq or afghanistan.heir new careers are thanks in part to a grant that helps pair hiring businesses with our returning veterans looking for work. anna joins me now. marking a moment in history. >> certainly s, hey rice. for the first time since world war ii nearly the entire firefighter class in newark, new jersey, is veterans. 28 out of 31. the city received a $7.1 million grant that makes recruiting and hiring veterans a priority. >> singing our national anthem home of the brave we have to create a home for our brave. that means jobs, housing, an opportunity to show the heroism overseas but come back and serve with the same courage and valor. this is tremendous. >> the gi go fund helped with recruitment. job searching is just one of the many struggles they experience while putting their lives back together. >> suicide rate is very high so due to the economic constraints they may have so having such a personnel behind us trying to fighting for us to get this job is amazing just to know that there are pe

and we have not kept our word in iraq or afghanistan by setting benchmarks before we would leave. that's why the afghan people know the taliban will be there when we are gone and they are very, very concerned about it. and it's destabilizing. but let's get back to the economy, it was governor romney who talked about what he would do to create jobs. he's the one who put forward specifics about his plan. one thing that know one has talked about today is that his five-point plan includes increasing trade with central and south america. trade in our hemisphere, which is absolutely essential for us and easier and will build up central and south america so that it has more stable economies. >> one thing that came up last night was about mitt romney's plan to add 12 million jobs, but the economic forecast that's been projected by the cbo already says that 12 million jobs are going to be added over the next four years because of the current path we are on economically. so senators, i want to get you on the record about what came up about obama care last night and the arguments that were m

whether it's iraq or afghanistan or pakistan, it doesn't matter. they need to pass through the crucible of combat. they get very good. learn how to lay mortars, learn how to fire rocket-propelled grenades. they know how to ambush an embassy. these people are getting better and better all the time. i think what the intelligence community's problem is, that they're also wary of our collection efforts, intercepts and the rest of it. and so we're seeing a tougher enemy after ten years after 9/11. these guys are -- they're good. >> suzanne kelly, appreciate your reporting. bob baer, as always, fran townsend as well. few in the senate have followed this story more closely than john mccain. he's been critical of security prior to the attack and the administration's handling of the aftermath. i spoke to him earlier today. >> cnn is now reporting that there were about 12 suspects with ties to al qaeda involved in this attack. have you heard anything more about it you can tell us? >> well, the thing i think of interesting news today is e-mails were going bac

develops as a society, i believe will impact us more over the long run than what happens in iraq or afghanistan. >> to push you on the policy implications of that, that is another major conclusion that geography tells us the southern border with mexico will be crucial but in light of what you said, this is an inevitable zone of conflict of pressure is moving the board in effect northwards, what is the wise policy for the united states? >> we have to be very careful about intervening because of sensitivities that go back to history. we fought a war with mexico. we have incursions' in to mexico under general pershing. everything we do in mexico has to go through a tight diplomatic filter. that being said, there is more we can do in terms of helping the mexican authorities than we have been doing. the ultimate power of the united states is the time that our top decisionmakers can devote to a problem in a given day. that is why we can't have 33 wars or two wars going on at the same time. if we have a no-fly zone in ceo or the persian gulf erupts or the south china sea here rafts we would have troub

know, they do get help but i think i mean, you know, if you just go over to whether it was iraq or afghanistan, you meet these guys and they are 25 years old and they have done three combat tours or four, you know, they are divorced, they have got two kids but you see that it is like goll, they live, they just live entire life times in three, four years. but it was just that kind, these wars went on forever so who was in there just went over and over and over again. you know, but what do you do? what do you do when there is an, i interviewed a guy in the piece, a psychiatrist who used this term moral injury. >> rose: yes. >> and he said a lot of soldiers and marines suffer from kind of moral injury, which he described assort of it happens when you get an order, you do something that you believe at the time was absolutely correct and the only thing you could do, and it turns out to have been have terrible consequences is basically what happened here. >> and even the guys, even the guys that were kind of very, very clear-eyed about it and said look we killed their family what do we say to them.

iraq. we don't want another afghanistan. that's not the right course for us. >> so andrea, a lot was said there. what checked out? >> reporter: well tonight governor romney said that he did not want another iraq or afghanistan. but four years ago in a debate right here in boca raton, mr. romney was asked by moderator tim russert, if the war in iraq was worst both the costs in blood and treasure we've spent, and romney responded at that time, quote, it was the right decision to go iraq. i supported it at the time. i support it now. and brian, president obama also argued tonight that mitt romney two weeks ago said that the administration should have kept troops in iraq longer. let's listen. >> this is just a few weeks ago that you indicated that we should still have troops in iraq. >> no i didn't. i'm sorry, i indicated -- >> you said that in your speech. >> i indicated that you failed to put in place a status of forces agreement at the end of the conflict that existed. >> governor -- >> reporter: both men were shading their past positions on that one. the president was referring to an october 8th speech that governor romney made criticizing, quote the abrupt withdrawal of all american troops from
