the best people to choose how a country should be government of the people who live and work in that country i think that applies everywhere and i think it certainly applies to sculp well you're only fourteen months away from the referendum does it worry you a little bit that the majority of scots do not want independence from k. and for the last five years to polls haven't changed. well if it comes to opinion polls when i was reelected to useable by an absolute majority in a proportional system as to the scope and the boat three months before the election i was twenty percent behind in the opinion polls i ended up almost twenty percent in front in the opinion poll so i think polls change and usually the change in our favor probably change the polls well as people get more information about this about the concept of the opportunity of independents than before yes how do we know this because if you pull the people who say we have enough information and we already understand the issues then by majority these people are voting yes so as we get more information out to the public of scotl

we are not looking at energy only as a country. we are looking at it from original point of view as well as the continental point of view. i cashed upon inga project that we believe will go a long way to augment whatever south africa is doing, but to southern africa and to the whole continent. >> aids remains a problem. the pharmaceutical companies are doing all they can do to make anti-aids drugs affordable? >> yes, i think they are trying their best. they are trying their best and i think today it is far better than what it was when the pandemic started. you know that south africa was one of the countries that was being criticized very highly with regard to h.i.v. and aids. but today you'll agree that many countries say that south africa is an example because of our programs. if that is the case, i think that gives hope that we can deal with this in a shorter time than we could realize. >> a question related to the middle east. your party to questioner has called to expel the israeli ambassador. do you agree with that position? >>

a liar. this country is broke. this country is broke. actuarially broke. >> and so, now to point out whether it is a law or not, i will get back to you on that, and i will defer to ben who is an absolute lawyer here sh, and look, the education department put this out to be a reminder to all of you communities balking and complaining that this is going to happen and you have to make it happen with the understanding that down the road, i guess, they will be compensated for this, or funded for this, and if that funding is ever approved. what do you make off that? what this leads to, because once, you know, in the schools, and maybe we are doing the compassionate or the right thing to adam's point, wouldn't we be encouraging more of this? >> yes, they get an education when they come here. we are broke, and broke as a nation, and the school system is already proeke broken, so can y imagine the burden that the children will put on the school districts like new york city, and small in towns line nebraska for example. >> the government says to sp

there are a lot of countries where leaders have a lot of but the money is not going back to provide health clinics for young mothers. so, yes, i think it is important for western countries and advanced countries to look at past practices. if loans have been made to weren't put into productive enterprises by those leaders at that time, those leaders may be long gone but countries are still unable to dig themselves out. can we strategically in pinpoint fashion find ways to assist and provide some relief? that is a legitimate discussion. but, do not think that is the main impediment at this point to why we have not seen traitor progress in many countries. there is enough resources, even serviced, to do better than we are doing in many cases. ok, it is a young lady's turn. i haven't gotten anybody way back in the back there. how about the young lady right there with the glasses? there you go. >> thank you, mr. president. my name is -- >> i like that name. from? >> madagascar are. thank you on behalf of the madagascar people. , we want to have your confirmation, what will happen after 2015? tha

the opportunities attract a lot of countries. most of the companies are eager to go to africa and invest. the only thing that they do not have our partners who really know africa to invest with. most of this -- a lot of american companies have zeroed down on one or two companies. of which to partner with. i would like to announce for us, at dangote group, we have two major partnerships. one which is the biggest, the partnership with dangote and blackstone. we have signed an mou, to be announced today, investing $5 billion jointly in power infrastructure and infrastructure across sub-saharan africa. [applause] with this, we will close the gap. there is a lot of gap. we know about the gap. we are going to be very serious and aggressive. the two organizations will really make it work. the second one we have, $1 billion to invest in petroleum refining. i grew culture. also, agriculture -- agriculture and financial services. we took 10% of the africa fund. $50 million.eventually, they raised $720 million. i hope somebody will be out th

until a country achieves a full country, itg of its cannot handle the internal pressures to simplify and exploit that history for political advantage and cannot handle the external pressures from other countries from repeated apologies for denial or leverage. however, in my mind there is a much more fundamental and important reason for the citizens of the country to understand their history. as human beings we have to make sense of our lives and the know how we've reached the current situation, what our forbearers .id on the how that affects us it applies to individuals, families, nations. there will always be elements of myths in family and personal and national histories, but as we become more mature on the we need to get below the myths and enter the reality, complex mixture of heroism, cowardice, loyalty, endurance and surrender that makes a real history the way it actually happened. now it may be too much to hope that china can achieve historical honesty under the current form of government. dictatorships are basically threatened by their own history, and that is why they work s

and more of a modern this country and it looks itself at its own national interest in a very purest sense for example with crimea if crimea were to be in the hands of nato would be an existential threat to the russian federation and i'm that's why it was a good idea for him to return but what i'm saying is that the west has it in totally different view of the international system as opposed to countries like china and russia when you talk about crimea. putin every now and then allows himself a little humor and in a major speech in april he said you know the prospect of our having to visit nato sailors or u.s. sailors in service stoppel you know that doesn't really appeal to me i know that they're very nice felt fellas he says but i'd much rather have it the way it is now where they could visit us in sevastopol ok now that was a very light hearted way of saying what was essentially important to putin and which i already said he indicated was a major factor in his decision to take in crimea now the other thing about this liberalism run amuck peter i don't know for sure but you

we are not looking at energy only as a country. we are looking at it from a regional point of view as well as a continental point of view. that is why in my remarks i touched upon a project we believe will go a long way to amend whatever south africa is doing but to southern africa and the whole country. >> age remains a problem throughout sub-saharan africa. do you feel a world held organization and pharmaceutical companies are doing all they can to remain -- to make drugs affordable throughout the region? >> yes, i think they are trying their best. think it is far better today than what it was when the pandemic started. you know south africa was one of the countries that has been criticized very highly with regard to hiv and aids, but that manywill agree countries are saying south africa is an example because of our programs we have put in place. if that is the case, i think it gives hope we can deal with this in a shorter time than we realized. >> a question related to the middle east. expel the called to israeli ambassador. do y

we have to be a country with secure borders. >> we talk about economics and the wage growth and the rich are getting richer and the poor are poorer, and never a time to increase the labor and the cost goes down and you don't have to pay the higher wages. i don't understand it. i worry about the poor people, and there is a debate in the country, legitimate about how poor people's wages are going down and if you increase the amount of poor people to take those jobs, wages are going to keep going down. >> well, they will be stabilizing. >> they are not stabilize now. >> and we have people who we are paying so many people not to work in this country, and paying americans and people born in this country to go down to get the latest program not the work. so when we talk about the toughest immigration law in alabama, all of the sudden, the next day, no business was there at the farm, because we are paying the able-bodied americans not the work. >> paying them more not the work than to work and remember that. the fact is that -- some of it. >> that is the president. >> and some of it is the fact

we're a country of open borders. in about two weeks, we will have 100,000 people surrounding a 100 yard football field and how easy a target is that? these people have to concentrate on stuff like that, thank you. clearly, we are doing everything we can. the islamic people are killing shia and sunni. they are doing it across iraq. they have probably killed for mark hello muslims than they have christians. i take your point, it is something we are concerned about. that was the trigger for the president to act. yet i think we should be equally concerned about the fact they are killing muslims. it's not because we want to invest ourselves in every single problem around the world. stepping back here, there is a much bigger question, not much the -- not just the unity of a wreck but what the instability in fracturing of a rock visa tiddle east and how would i affect the united states not only from the issue of oil production but also simple instability and the impact on the global economy. there are hundreds of thousands o

there are a lot of countries where the leaders have a lot of resources but the money is not going back to provide health clinics for young mothers. so yes i think it's important for western countries and advanced countries to look at past practices if loans have been made to countries that weren't put into productive enterprises by those leaders at that time, those leaders may be long gone but countries are still unable to dig themself out from under those debts can we strategically in pin point fashion, find ways to assist in provide some relief. that's a legitimate discussion. but do not think that that is the main impediment at this point to why we have not seen greater progress in many countries because there's enough resources there in country even if debts being serviced to do better than we're doing in many cases. all right. >> okay. so it's a young ladies turn. i haven't gotten anybody way back in the back there. how about that young lady right there with the glasses. yeah, right there. there you go. thank you mr. president. my name is zu -- >> i like that name. >> from madagas

this is a country. >> what do you mean this is a country? you mean they want to come here because it's a better country? >> yes. and there are 52 billion, not million, billion people of the world who would like to live in a better country. it's not going to be a better country if all 52 billion come. >> let's talk about rand paul. the congressman has said about our military aid to israel. so we give $3 billion a year in military aid. and rand paul seems to have been sort of all over the map as to whether or not this is a good idea or not. let's see what he said first today. >> i haven't proposed targeting or eliminating any aid to israel. so when people write that, they're not really writing the truth. what they're writing is a story line. >> so there he says he doesn't want to eliminate any aid to israel. but this is what he said back in 2011 when he has talked to wolf blitzer. >> so just to be precise, and all foreign aid, including the foreign aid to israel as well, that right? >> yes. >> what he was saying he wants to eliminate all forei

receiving country, and a destination center that is willing to take such an individual, who may not be in that destination country. we would have to have permission to fly over and do fuel stops. so the logistics are very complicated. furthermore, we have to be able to put our own transport teams in harm's way, so we have to have vehicles to transport the patients, and the patients fit to fly. so we have to have special biological containment units, and those are not as easy it come by as one thinks. the disease has manifested at some point in time with secretions such as diarrhea and documenting, and to try to contain that is a challenge, and you run the risk of contaminating those professionals trying to remove this patient, assuming that you need to move them in the first place. so a few are sending in personnel to assist on-site. which seems to be our first line of defense. but we're working with all of those organizations to try to figure out ways that we may be able to transport these patients to upgrade their care. >> we're going to take a break, and when we come back, we

a numbers game. if you were going to go to these countries, eventually something is going to go wrong, and it's the impunitygovernments have to be stopped and letting it go unpunished. >> it's very powerful and certainly a look to everyone. eric matthews, patricia todd and david rhode. thank you for joining us tonight. >> the united states falls on 36 on the reporters without boarders freedom index. i think that al jazeera helps connect people in a way they haven't been connected before. it's a new approach to journalism. this is an opportunity for americans to learn something. we need to know what's going on around the world. we need to know what's going on in our back yard and i think al jazeera does just that. >> the plight of three aljazeera journalists sentenced to prison in egypt last june prompted worldwide protests and continued effort to see them free, but journalism isn't under assault only in other countries, but here as well with the birthplace of freedom of the press. last june, the u.s. represented the peal that risen could not appeal to testify because he was a journalist. he had refused to t

other activists in the yes scotland campaign. >> we want to take control of our own destiny. >> in a new country, we can make the decisions. we can get a constitution that suits us. we can have hope and optimism for the future. >> hope and optimism is what these mothers want for their children. they have just a few weeks to decide whether they think a better future lies in an independent scotland or in the united kingdom. >> moving now to some other news, a man arrested on suspicion of stealing michael schumacher's medical records has been found hanged in his jail cell in switzerland. >> the suspect was detained after investigators traced the computer he allegedly used to try to sell schumacher's file. the seven-time formula one world champion suffered severe head injuries in a skiing accident in the french alps last december. after awaking from coma in june, he was airlifted from hospital to a rehabilitation center in switzerland. now for a little people power -- a commuter in the australian city of perth had a lucky escape this morning after getting his leg caught between a train and the platf

the poll lets us know as a country where we are. we are very polarized as a country. i think folks perception in terms of the federal role in many issues has declined.

life citizens are having to the polls to pick a new leader whose first task will be to bring in a country back from the brink ragas de of explains for a team. it's early election day here in sukhumi and we're at one of the polling stations in the capital there's a large can with the door being that's and one by one and it doesn't look like it's not in doubt ask the candidates here they are these four men the election is really according to the polls between this and this this is an opposition leader this man led the protests from spring this year that eventually forced the out of the president this is seen as his successor was the former three steps to the public through their programs of pretty much identical both promises and then the public see both promise more international recognition for apology or for the reform of government that's being dubbed as a washing machine with dirty money we spoke to some of the people here they say that this time they really expect change if you did you not old enough for you so much as you we need to stop dividing the presence of friends in this count

i have a very serious problem talking about the northern triangle countries because it's a term that was actually used during the cold war to refer to completely different circumstances and now it's being extrapolated as if the three countries are having the same problems and they are not. on the question about who pays. the payment takes place in the home country and people carry cash as a contingency in the likelihood of some emergency. and now in some cases and this is tricky and problematic because in some cases you might be talking about 3% of the cases, we don't know exactly. there is a lot of kidnapping. once you've been taken to the u.s. and a lot of the kidnapping occurs in facilities by trafficking networks in the united states, in texas and places like that. and they are getting paid using wire transfer companies. not that the company is in the business but it's the quickest way to get paid. this is something nobody is looking into it. it's a political one. but if there is human trafficking taking place, it's taking place in the united states. so this is an issue that nobod

a year countries are say the central stuff of billions of euros and lawsuits from russia's restrictions on food imports imposed as a response to western nations sanctions. also hope for a long term truce between israel and gaza fades as both sides fail to agree terms almost one thousand two hundred people have died in the month of fighting. plus as a whistleblower edward snowden is granted a three year residency permit for russia but the possibility of lebanon citizenship in the future. from wherever you're watching from around the world this is our team to national live from moscow the simi you with me to say. clashes have erupted in central kiev between protesters and police the city center has been shrouded in black smoke as people been tires police and special units you arrived at the scene managed to get the situation under control it's believed most of the country would use and fire fighters would object files might push them away from them i'd done square this is the exact same place that sold the start of the anti-government uprising in november last year that eventually ended i

there are a lot of countries where the leaders have a lot of , but the money is not going back to provide health clinics for young mothers. important think it is for western countries and advanced countries to look at past practices. if loans have been made to given to that weren't productive enterprises by those leaders at that time, those leaders may be long gone and the countries are still unable to dig themselves out from under wese stats -- can strategically, in pinpoint fashion, find ways to assist? that is a legitimate discussion. but do not think that that is the main impediment at this point to why we have not seen greater progress in many countries. there are enough resources there, even if debt is being serviced, to do better than we are doing in many cases. ok. a young lady's turn. haven't gotten anyone in the back. how about that young lady, right there, with the glasses? there you go. president.u, mr. i am from madagascar. it is a great honor for me. thank you on behalf of of the great madagascar. we have yours, we all known -- yo [indiscernible] the goal, for those of you n

west african problem or is this a country specific problem? es don't stop at frontiers. ebola as a regional problem. what has caused the disease to spread so much in light. .nd any and sierra leone an exchange ofbe information in the countries in this region. economies, ifse you think about a country like sierra leone the and just putting its infrastructure back together and getting the resources back as a pot of the economy, how significant is this? we are not there yet. >> it is hard to quantify. i would say the health organizations are talking about three to six months to stop the spread of the disease. the damage would be more in terms of perception. when you go ont, the ground to run your business in the capital, the risk is not as high as you would think. >> one more question. should the message be that we aid?more the more resources they have the more this doesn't happen again. >> this is of the strong messages of this summit. put an emphasis on trade. the united states is counting on that. they relate to the party when it comes to afric

we are a country of immigrants. we need to reform our immigration system to welcome those who want to come here and be a part of who we are. but to say that our immigration system is based on those who get here illegally is just wrong, unfair to those who follow the legal process. and what we need to tell the president is to stop talking about amnesty, stop misleading people, particularly in central america that if they send their children with these human traffickers that they will get a better way of life. they are abused. many horrible ways. we are encouraging it, and it has nothing to do with what congress did or did not do. all of this is at the feet of president obama. >> next question. >> i and j t mansion from michigan. what is your position on the global warming debate? >> the notice, they had to change the name of that. they call it climate change. we used to call that the four seasons. [laughter] you know, they're running into problems with this warming phenomenon because the globe is not warned in 15 year

as wilson did in world war i.wo and as we tried to do in a ten-year-plus occupation two of countries that didn't get -- that got us in a worse position after the occupations than this before and thoue people who aree pointing this out at the time.lh this isn't something you didn't see. this is something many pointed out was exactly what was going r to happen when we left, wherever we left, whether five years or 20 years. >> if you look at american foreign policy, let's say in th. last 50 years, from 1945 to ersn now -- b >> we're leaving world war i out. >> i understand you have a beef with world war i.o i might agree with you on that one. >> it's the prototype of what ts avoid. if we're critiquing american o foreign policy, the big mistake you don't leave out. >> well, first of all -- >> the people an death row only made one mistake. >> on theol icbalance, has amer and its foreign policy and by this i mean both as hard power and soft power, on the balance, has it been good for the world,s yes or no? >> th⌝ existence of the united states is -- es >> he's putting words in the witness'

to be a member of nato and not the end of their country. e present secretary-general was the prime minister of denmark, a nonnuclear country. , 20next secretary-general out of 28 countries. uswhy is their hypocrisy for but not in norway? >> we will move on to our final section about what happens after the referendum vote. the next question is submitted by e-mail. it crumbs from fred lister. it has been a divisive campaign for the population generally. he wants to know how they will work together after this vote and how no votes will react to each other. >> if someone had asked me six months ago if the campaign had been divisive, i would have said not at all. did over thehat he last few weeks because both sides are passionate about what they believe in. both sides have to accept the result. do rejectt people independence and i hope that people will work together to build a better, stronger, fairer scotland. if i lose and he wins i have to accept that it is it, it is a revocable and we are not going back. all of us.is for after what has been t

a royal saudi 747. what is that analogy? >> i said that the country like a 747, a cockpit filled with geriatric pilots, meaning the three elderly rulers with a first class full of princes who would be king, and the rest of the plane filled with, in some cases, malcontents who would like to turn the plane around and crash it. and that somewhere on board there may be a pilot who can safely land the plane but may never get a chance. the metaphor is to simply say that there are, i think, saudis who can lead the country, but both princes and others, but whether the right people get a chance or not remains to be seen. >> former "wall street journal" publisher karen elliott house, our book, "on saudi arabia: its people, past, religion, fault lines." here's the cover. booktv is on location at pepperdine university. >> there's a look at some books that are being published this week.

that they deserve but are not getting i think there's a better way to go we can do so much more as a country that's why i decided to write this book to get it done does it have to be a cooperation between the executive and the congress i think it does but you also have to win an argument and the argument is which way should we go. point a great contrast to the different kinds of governing philosophies that are being deployed i would argue that the president is you know a very left of center president i talk about liberal progressivism how his governing philosophy in the policies that come from it are the wrong way to go and how the founding principles applied to the problems of the day are the right way to go which will lead to more freedom more opportunity stronger communities in a more vibrant civil society and so i do believe we need to have an argument or debate in this country in a civil way about the better way forward so that we can have real elections about a meaningful choice so that we can get let the people the country decide what kind of country they want to have what do we want

that have a much more difficult time remaining in the country legally. has essentially had its border closed to all refugees from syria from mid-2012. theoretically, palestinians from syria could make it to turkey which does not have a non-admission policy but the perils of the journey from southern syria to the turkish border are very difficult. because of all the non-admission policies and the restrictions on palestinians, many of them are making the difficult decision to do such things as flight to egypt or libya and try to take votes to europe. -- take votes to europe. people ocean up and boats -- people have shown up in boats off the coast of australia. one man made it to europe from syria. people aren't taking incredible risks because they have no other options. >> thank you so much. we will leave you with a bit of literary news -- and writing attributed to former u.s. president abraham lincoln has been discovered in a book about race. historical experts say he wrote in that book justifying racism which he may have read to understand his opponents

president, it's the not the easiest way of moving a country from a to b. and he said, how do you define democracy? my answer was democracy is ruled by majority. no, no, no. that's impossible in this country. in this country democracy must mean rule by consensus. if you try to rule by majority, this country will go through conflict and fragmentation. i think he's quite right. i must say there's no other afghan leader that i have met who understands his society and its complexity. more than he does. and even when i was there in 2010 and later, afghan leaders spent much of their time abroad came and said to me, i admit now that he understood the situation much better than we did. he understood reactions in the communities in the south and the east, et cetera, much better than we did. i remember so well the one prominent minister who traveled with the president to the south and then he sent me a message which read, now i'm in the real afghanistan. what did it mean to me? he was a person who spent much of his life abroad. and he discovered afghanistan. i think h

the opportunities attract a lot of countries. most of the companies are eager to go to africa and invest. the only thing that they do not have our partners who really know africa to invest with. most of this -- a lot of american companies have zero down on one or two companies. of which to partner with. i would like to announce for us, group, we have two major partnerships. one which is the biggest, the partnership with dangote and blackstone. we have signed an mou, to be announced today investing $5 , billion jointly in power infrastructure and infrastructure across sub-saharan africa. [applause] with this, we will close the gap. there is a lot of gap. we know about the gap. we are going to be very serious and aggressive. the two organizations will really make it work. the second one we have, $1 billion to invest in petroleum refining. i grew culture. agriculturelture -- and financial services. we took 10% of the africa fund. $50 million. raised $720they -- eventually,k they raised $720 million. i hope somebody will be out there.

you know you are in a country that the judiciary is not an independent and has got a lot of criticism from the international community you would expect to see the judges who are going to fight one issue face that he's got a member of ruling family so you are in a country that does not respect human rights there judiciary system does not meet with international standards a lot of criticism by international human rights groups and their friend alike like united states and but they do it they don't care so far they were going and taking a lot of what i defended to court and using the court using the judicial system as a tool to attack human rights activists to attack photograph. people activists in the social media so we are in the most repressive regime now we are now we are willing to hold the life of our. who's in his hunger strike we are worried about this woman taking into consideration many women were tortured many men were there as i'm talking to you a lot of people in jail i've been tortured by the police in bahrain which is known it has bad reputation and human rights as we've b

you went a little bit country. now you're a little bit pop. not a little bit rock and roll.or the last two years there's been sort of a sonic evolution happening and i've been experimenting more and more. and i think you have to follow just this intuition, this gut feeling as a songwriter, you just want to write a certain kind of music and you don't know why. and you can either challenge that or you can go with it. so i just did what felt naturally to me. the only choice we have in life is to change. >> reporter: in addition to embracing change, swift is not afraid to let her fans see her with her hair down. often posting candids on social media, reaching nearly 50 million fans. >> we all see how important girlfriends are to you. and you love to post pictures on instagram, social media. and you're with people who are also in successful creative endeavors. how do you choose your friends? >> i choose my friends based on people who i have things in common with or people who challenge me. honestly, i think that there's something really inspiring about being around people who kno

what happens now in a country as divided as your home in iraq? >> reporter: well, the biggest problem is while you have an emerging confident, clear charismatic leader with a vision and a project, you look amongst iraqi leaders to see who has that project, and who has that vision, and what have they done for ten years with their resources and with the opportunity that they were given? not much. and that is what makessal baghdadi dangerous. certainly he has been able to sell that argument clearly to the sunnies, who have been marginalized. let us not forget it was basically the sunni cries who cleared iraq from al-qaeda when they aligned themselves and they did agree to be part of the political process. and it is their marginalization unfortunately under prime minister maliki, and his failed politics. that led to the emergence of bag bad di ,and to him they to go big chunk of territory, and he has more sympathizers than he ever dreamt of. he has made it clear that his staunch enemies are shia, and uses a term which means month pure belief. >> do mo

it's a threat to the stability of those countries but it's also a threat in terms of returning radicalized jihadis who left our country, not only great britain, coming back with instructions to create acts of terror at home, which is why uk over the last year picked up 70 different people in terrorist related offenses to do with activities in iraq and syria. so we're very conscious of the threat back at home. what are we doing about it? we're doing a burge of different things. we've had to address humanitarian disaster as a result of isis in the region, drops with aircraft and aerial surveillance to try to help drop things there. we try to support military fighting back against isis in the kurdish government in northern iraq. we are involved with intelligence and training and equipment in a number of different ways to those who would like us to help. we've been providing refueling tankers for aircraft involved in some of these missions and we are doing a very complex operation in terms of trying to identify, detect, and obstruct terrorist activity by individuals going to and coming back fr
