christianity i think was created there. why do you think only now -- why didn't they face it before? they survived more horrible rulers than assad. mr. kiriakou: i don't disagree with you. i think that christianity has done very well in syria under assad. politics aside, i think that bashar al-assad is a dictator, anti-democrat, but the truth is with the players on the field now, he is the one that gives christians the chance of having a thriving community. if you look at the alternatives, never minding the notion that the united states promotes that somehow magically this is going to come together and everybody will live in peace and harmony, that will simply not happen, but the alternatives are isis or some al qaeda related organization, or assad. and of this choices, i think those are the realistic choices -- of those choices, the best is assad. now, time was, maybe as recently as 2012 or 2013, where there was talk of perhaps a syrian military pushing assad aside, the same talk in iraq through the 1990's, that the best and most likely alternative to saddam hussein was a group of sunni iraqi generals. it hasn't happened. and so of

bit like us you have christian arabs who exist you have jewish persian who by the way were one of the people who were affected by the travel ban because somebody in the eighty's and mrunderstand that there's a lot of jews also in iran so we came up with this idea so of course like there's the t. shirt there's the flag there is that so you can so you can tell everybody that your bag is safe there is a framed picture with toby keith this is how to. speak like an american i like this because this is going to look it's on an automated condemning device i hereby condemn that there's that but i also like this because this is like a special kit. for them looking muslim so and this only has one t. shirt would say. i am not a muslim so that would be enough so late just like get out of my hair and wonder if you had this for real whether it was i think it would i mean well i think we should start accepting modems where it is gehrig's yeah and non muslims were as gigs you had to do something to put this together oh yeah i mean the people look at phoebe. brian carmel and blake and we're going to like that one of your dog well kathy is a new platform and they are actually getting

what that's like and that moral authority and as a christian for those positions of morality with the the to do with religion. so i joke given all that mr. f -- this jeff that christians can be moral. [laughter] because that is to have a sense of what is right and wrong. and the ethics. and my personal moral ethics and with that in the craft have would we would provide into beatify rent in that it is or is it immoral for women to have the health care that they need and then to breach that duties and my duty to do good. and individually. so that means you cannot have a law that would govern. so i say to make that moral case for choice in when it comes to this conversation and then to protect the lives in the even push back on the notion it is a horrible procedure if they make that argument if they can feel paid we have evidence the refutes that. in the push back on that on that claim that is dangerous but we have not made the case and making decisions about reproduction land to make these decisions so part of that in that public space. in but that has done is left the big vacuum of reproductive rights that have been willing to fill that
