nigerty you when neville chamberlain went czechoslovakia and peace in our time. germans were not direct threats to truth. look in 2009 when barack obama came to office and look at world today, you see a very different world. leading from behind. no, don't do stupid stuff. that's the strategy? that is the foreign policy? of course we are now seeing a world in turmoil and on fire. andrea: senator, preemptive strike, jeb mentioned at debate other weekend. quick thoughts as we go, would you agree with that strategy? >> i would have to get a briefing. i'm not -- andrea: he was advocate forge a preemptive strike? >> i don't think it would be wrong to shoot a missile down on launch, particularly if i knew where it was headed. harris: got to know where it is headed? >> yeah. sandra: donald trump doubling down on his support of waterboarding saying he would be okay with going beyond that controversial technique to get information from potential terrorists. so do we need tougher interrogation techniques? or is it going too far? feel a cold coming on? new zicam cold remedy

and the british prime minister neville chamberlain said this is peace in our time. we've appeased hitler. we've made a deal with them rather than go to war at a time when many many in britain did not believe the british could fight that kind of conflict. they weren't mobilized. appeasement became a dirty word afterwards. you can never an spees a dictator. they'll always want more. so when american foreign policy was discussed in the 140s and 1950s, it was discussed in terms of let's learn from history. and one piece of history you need to learn from is you can never negotiate with a totalitarian regime. that wants to expand. you can't. you have to stop aggression. this helps to shape what goes on during the coiled war. you can't let them go. if you let them come here, the so-called domino theory, once one country falls an, another one will follow. that's one. of course, what's the culminating point of that debate in vietnam. that's followed by something called vietnam syndrome which is americans don't want to use military force abroad because they will find themselv

i ask you, is that mario draghi's neville chamberlain's moment? >> yes.his is scorched earth policy to get this arbitrary level of inflation they refer to as 2%. this is monetary corporate bombing. he'll break anything just to get to 2% inflation because he can say we met our objective, regardless of everything they burn down around it. they create massive financial instability to create this illusion that 2% inflation is somehow a good thing. >> all right. in your own words, you use the phrase carpet bombing. mario draghi is regularly associated with the bazooka. is this central bank warfare? i mean this in the most serious way. >> central bankers should be in the background of our lives. they should be in the background of economies globally. they should not be front and center. humility is a very important thing in all aspects of life. particularly central banking. they have no humility. they feel like the world is on their shoulders. when he said all previous relationships need to be thrown out the window, central bankers have thrown them out the wind

i go, well, i think we have to go back and consider what winston churchill said about neville chamberlain during the munich crisis. and these guys would -- whoa, are all your kids like that? and we got talking about martin luther king and the civil rights struggle and everything, and there was a point, if you remember, where martin luther king in addition to his civil rights activities, actually came united states and opposed the vietnam war, which i felt defined him because he said this morality is going apply across everything, not just civil rights. and -- but it was very controversial at the time and my dad was one of the few people at the time defending king doing this, and again, we're there, a nice, beautiful fall day, and beautiful views out the windows of our place and the fire is crackling and everything, everybody sitting around, all these big wigs. risker, what do you -- rinker are what do you think? well, you really need to consider this in light of the free soil debates in congress in 1854. and that was volume 4. what was great about this is it -- writing was working for me,

it will either be a neville chamberlain moment or we can look back and say, that was a ronald reagan moment. and i hope it goes the right way. i yield back. thank you. >> thank you very much, mr. yoho. we now go to grace meng of new york. ms. meng: thank you, mr. chairman, and thank you to ambassador mull and mr. smith for being here and all your hard work. since the jcpoa went into effect, iran's hard liners have taken pains to consolidate their economic and political power and to sideline would-be reformists who are more amenable to reproachment with the west. it was hoped that the openings created by the jcpoa would engender iran an moderation, but instead -- iranian moderation, but instead the extremists have reaped the benefits while tighten their grip. does the u.s. have a strategy to combat the retrenchment we see on the part of could he mainy, his allies -- khomeini, his allies and the irgc? i'll go through all of my questions first in the interest of time. how has iran's terrorist activities been affected by the jcpoa? i know that you mentioned that it was outside the scope

duncan said does not come to fruition it will either be neville chamberlain moment i yield back. >> since the jpcoa went into effect with that political power there with those openings created of the jpcoa in moderation but instead to reap the benefits to escalate there mulally and behavior. so what we see on the allies why has there is a terrorist activities that use it is outside the scope of the deal but what do we know about the support for terrorism has increased or decreased? but how are the funds transferred in if we see the benefit of groups like hezbollah in is the administration pursuing those actions? with the idea of those problematic behavior is? in these actions? >> in terms of the impact of jpcoa in the political situation with those views the and aspirations but the reason to pursue this has been diminished the ability of a nuclear weapon. with that breakout time to a least one year. it would be appropriate for we to speculate to have a political impact and now we are succeeding. in terms of that destabilizing activity in their region we have beset the we could use as mr.
