a suspicion arose in the united states that some foreign countries were using exports to the united states aseans of promoting the domestic growth of their own economies. they were flooding us with their goods while keeping ours out. if this suspicion were based on the existence of very high tariffs abroad, it would be fairly easy to evaluate. unfortunately, most of the obstacles that countries place in the way of foreign imports are more subtle than that, what economists call "non-tariff barriers" to trade. government subsidies, as in the case of steel, are sometimes overt, sometimes hidden and complex. complicated licensing and import procedures, special regulations concerning the standards, specifications, and testing that imported products have to meet. the magnitude of such barriers is very difficult to assess. what can be said with some confidence is that countries who are running huge trade surpluses with the united states, like japan, should take quite seriously the effort to open their economies to american goods as much as they can. for the alternative is very likely to be increased

. ♪ >>> we've learned that north korea has an entire unit devoted to cyber warfare known as bureau 121. analysts say the country spent its scarce resources trying to build up this unit to carry out these kind of attacks. here's cnn. >> reporter: north korean soldiers a techni color parading force against the west. on state-run television, a near ridiculous bravado of the military. but there are unseen soldiers in kim jong-un's cyber war versus the west. they have no face and only known by a number bureau 121. spoo what is bureau 121? they conduct cyber attacks. says jang se-yul. he is a former pyongyang military computer systems worker now in south korea independently attempting to crumble an agency nearly impossible to chase. bureau 121, a shadow agency with an unknown number of the regime's handpicked shadow agents placed in countries around the world, jang believes there are approximately 1800 of them, though he says the agents themselves don't know how many exist. we can't verify jang's claims about the shadow group but he says he's obtained from a current operative hundreds of financial files hacked from s

countries. meanwhile the cuban exile community in the united states made enormous contributions to our country. in politics, in business, culture and sports. like immigrants before, cubans helped remake america. even as they felt a painful yearning for the land and families they left behind. all of this bound america and cuba in a unique relationship. at once, family and foe. proudly the united states has supported human rights in cuba through these five decades. we've done so primarily through policies that aimed to isolate the island. preventing the most basic travel and commerce that americans can enjoy any place else. and though this has been rooted in the best of intentions no other nation joins us in imposing these sanction it's had little effect beyond providing the cuban government with a rational for restrictions on its people. today they are still governed by the castros that came to power half a century ago. neither the americans or the cuban are well served by a policy that took place in an event years before we were born. nearly two decades ago we reestablish eed relations are vietnam, where we fought a war that claimed more americans than any cold war confrontation. that's why when i ca

start new lives in these countries and to put behind them the dozen or so years they spent at guantanamo. again, it illustrates the inability to bring them to the united states aslook around the world for countries that were resettled. the men who have been cleared to leave for years in your uruguay. >> ifill: should anybody be worried about their release? >> one of the men who left yesterday was evaluated ten years ago as a low risk with a heart condition and bad health and could not go back to tunisia. so the evaluation in 2004 was that he need not be at guantanamo but it illustrates just how hard it is to find place force them to move and start new lives. all five of these men not one had been charged with a crime. they were all cleared by these national security task forces that met in 2009, and it was a matter of finding locations for them. it's not clear, you know, that they necessarily arrived there as hating the united states but after all these years, the goal is to get them to the next place where they won't look back at their period at the detention center but look forward at whatever's been arranged for their next life. we don't know what they will

the country has come to accept religious pluralism. i'm arguing against anybody else who has spoken so far. evidence for this is everywhere. religious discrimination is down in the united states, even ass risen sharply in other countries throughout the world. the u.s. equal employment opportunity commission reported a sharp rise in claims of religious discrimination during the george w. bush years, right after 9/11, before noting a gentle decline starting in 2009. the claimscentage of were found to lack merit, which suggest there is more fear than there is bona fide abuse. perhaps the most compelling comes from thece fact that the loudest claims of religious discrimination these from some of the largest, most powerful religious groups in the country, including evangelical protestants and american catholics. what have they been complaining about? not that they themselves had been prevented from worshiping , but insee fit america's quest to honor its minority faiths, the country has curtailed the rights of large groups from imposing its beliefs onto others. was ever forced to practice contraception under president obama's affordable care act, but some catholic employers were asked to co

the vatican. so it does seem unlikely in a country like the united states that is not as predominantly latin as otherstent. in fact, i can remember, lawrence, when elian gonzalez was stuck here in the united states, there was discussion with the catholic bishop's conference and an effort with that entity and the spanish government. like wise when cuba released about 70 political prisoners in 2009, the pope was involved. the vatican was involved, the europeans were involved. so in the cuban context, it might be unusual, but it's not the first time. it's just the first time that a pope has gotten the two governments to recognize that they have an interest in moving something forward and giving the kind of trust that each government gave it. that for sure is unique. >> and the president today really gave the pope credit. he said that he really provided moral authority as well as this opportunity to put people together. >> absolutely. and again, i would stress that the fact that this is a latin american pope is very significant. given what the president mentioned today as well, that this is an opportunit

country is immune to the threat of terrorism and even as the united states leads over 60 nations in the fight against isis, we will always be the face of this coalition, and we must remain vigilant about the threat of radicalization or the threat of lone wolf attacks. again, i want to thank both of our witnesses for appearing here today, i look forward to a productive discussion on this incredibly challenging effort to counter radicalization, stem the flow of foreign fighters in and out of syria and prevent future threats to the united states and our allies. i yield back. >> the chair will now recognize other members for opening statements. the chair now recognizes the gentleman from south carolina, mr. wilson. >> on sunday both the fbi and the department of homeland security issued warnings to american military personnel within the united states regarding possible threats from isil.

united pakistan, but weaver seen this before. we've seen this after the attack on malala, the attack on the catchery airport, everybody units and says this is horrible. pakistan that never proved the ability to unit as a country and oppose the pakistan. some even if they don't support the taliban come from the same tribes. it's very difficult to separate those people, so you will see a lot of effort to unify a country that is aghast, horrified by the level of carnage we saw this morning, which was absolutely unprecedented. until now, we haven't seen anyone in pakistan being able to grab that temporary unification and turn it into a national movement to oppose the taliban. >> nick schiffron, live from jerusalem for perspective on the pakistani taliban. >> we'll bring you the latest on the school attack in pakistan throughout the morning. thousands of venezuelans taking to the streets in caracas monday were protesting u.s. sanctions. the marsh was odors by the countries socialist government. many protestors wore red in support of president maduro. congress approved freezing assets for some venezuelan officials. >> an appointment breaks ground on two front in washington, d.c. this morning. this was an historic v

the united states to face some justice. this development, a result of the united states restoring the diplomatic relations with that country. however, ast of the deal, there was something the world did not see, something akin to a spy thriller. the u.s. government will help the wife of a jailed cuban spy become pregnant. for that we go to patrick in havana. >> reporter: the cuban five receive a heroes welcome from raul castro and top officials. the men's return has cubans buzzing. not just over secret negotiations that freed the five but also over the mysterious, miraculous hernandez that she is with child was all too clear in these images released when the men touched down in havana after 60 years in's the prisons. he said, quote, as much as i prepar prepared for my return, it was still surprising. the couple's pregnancy is also surprising since adriana was long banned from visiting her for herself being a cuban intelligence officer. family of other members of the five say she was inseminated artificially and that herardo is the father. he's in good shape, strong and happy, she told me about the expecting father. he'll explain how it

the country and the people for this country. >> as the lone voice on the other side, i would point out that the united states of america has signatorieso a lot of international agreements and rules. we're hardly in a position to just ignore those rules when it's inconvenient. secondly, the senate staffers went over 6 million documents. they didn't talk to the cia agents directly. they had transcripts when those agents were interviewed. and they went through every one of the cases and they found -- excuse me -- they found no basis for a piece of intelligence that came as a result of -- >> well. >> -- excuse me! excuse me, pat. i want to finish my point. he makes the point that it led to the cur your to obama. that information -- currior to obama. it came from several places and the person who was waterboarded before he was waterboarded! [talking at the same time] >> hold on. hold on. hold on, pat. >> i'll let pat jump in. there's some intelligence. that's true. but the eit did provide intelligence. >> what's that? >> enhanced intelligence techniques. >> all right. let's call it. think that waterboarding is torture, but sleep depravatio

we are at one of the informal schools set up by the united nations, there's 50 of them scattered across the country, each enrolls about 350 students. as see a lot of children are -- are not being educated. and lebanon can only do so much. this country is appealing for help. the government wants $2 million to help 2 million people. 1 million are syrians, and 1 million are lebanese. so this crisis is not just affecting syrians, it is affecting lebanese as well, a lot of them have lost their jobs because syrians work for cheaper wages. so there's a lot of special tensions as well. lebanon needs help, the syrians here need help. most of these people realize they are not heading home any time soon. >>> al jazeera continue to demand the release of our three journalists who have been imprisoned in egypt for 355 days. they were jailed on false charges of helping the outlawed muslim brotherhood. they are appealing against their conviction. >>> u.k. place are investigating three alleged murders as part of an inquiry into child abuse. it involve politically powerful people in the 1970s and '80s. a man claiming to be abused from the age of seven

the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman. as we broadcast live from the united states climate summit in lima, peru, where more than half of the countrycovered by tropical rainforest, which plays a crucial role in absorbing carbon emissions that contribute to global warming. but peru is facing scrutiny here at the cop because a new report by the group global witness finds it is the fourth most dangerous nation for environmental activists, including the indigenous people who live in the forests and work to protect it from deforestation. in a few minutes, we'll speak with two widows of four men who were killed here in september, allegedly by the illegal loggers who they were trying to stop. peru also recently passed legislation that rolls back forest protections in order to attract new investment and development. on friday, the president of cop20, peru's minister of the environment, manuel pulgar, talked about the problems the country faces with deforestation. >> we need to control deforestation and there are three things which i ask the media to take into account. the first is illegal logging, which must result in specific sanctions in

international criminal court so what palestine is now is a nonmember state, the same way as quite a number of other countries including the united states. and it is able to take its seat today when the assembly of state parties, part of their own statute, that's the body that represents all the signatories. important for palestinians symbolically. there's some momentum here. remember those recent parliamentary votes in europe, remember that palestine's status at the u.n. general assembly was changed. bake baim a member of unesco. palestine has long said at some point may have requested to sign the rome statute. those states that are not keen for that idea are going to find it hard to block that. recognized as a state by the international criminal court, could help palestinians who want to bring cases before the international criminal court. we know in the past there have been some organizations that have tried to bring cases on behalf of the palestinians but the court hasn't accepted those cases. legal experts divided but they do think potentially it gives the palestinians a greater legal standing. >> james do stay with us becau

producing it again, rekindles the four and will be manipulated by extremist to represent the united states as a countryt goes out and takes random people and takes measures. they will not be be talking about why the measures were applied. and the limited number. and the world knows what happened. but the problem here, aside of the rhetoric of feinstein, the reality of the report it will be harder for foreign intelligence partners to share with the united states, they will fear that at a future point, another senate committee will release information and put them in a difficult situation. this report as released today will provide major harm to the national security and interest of the united states. >> why then is it being released? senator feinstein had respect from both sides of the aisle and been a defender of the intelligence agencies and so why if it creates that danger and her own administration admits we have heightened alerts, why would senator feinstein do this? >> i think there are a couple of reasons, firstly with senator feinstein about to move away from her position as a chairwoman and loo
