some say we may need africa more than africa needs us and many african nations are beginning to think the same way. both sides are mistaken. we need each other, now we need each other more than ever. it is time to solidify our economic and strategic partnerships. i urge others to support this resolution, commend president obama for his leadership in making the partnership a reality by signing a binational commission agreement with south africa, with an goal and nigeria -- an goalia and nigeria. a strategic agreement with the entire african union, the white house has announced that president obama will be hosting these 17 african heads of state and a celebration that will mark the 50th anniversary later this summer. and i'd like to take this opportunity to commend our president for calling this summit. i hope an invitation will be extended to other african nations as well. for investing in africa, the continent and other nations. they are on the cusp of fortune. it is time to revisit our relationship with the continent of africa and to deny society a more comprehensive approach. i woul

south africa scored the first goal of the cup to the delight of millions. but the match ended in a tie when mexico scored late. ( cheers and applause ) played once every four years, the tournament began in 1930. teams are divided into eight initial groups; two advance from each group to face a 16-team knockout contest. hundreds of millions will watch these matches on tv. the frenzy over soccer around the world, however, has never been matched in the u.s. but this time around, americans have bought more tickets than residents of any other country, except south africa. >> they call it "the beautiful game," and i think if you just sit down and pay attention to it, you really understand the skill level and appreciate that, and it really is a beautiful game. ( cheers and applause ) >> suarez: clarence wardell came to this bar in washington early today to watch the games. he has his own theories about why soccer has never rivaled more popular sports in the u.s. >> i think the reason that americans do not like soccer as a whole is we don't grow up with hometown te

this is a very big boost for africa. i lived in africa.now this is a very, very, very important issue. for the first timee africa is given the opportunity to host the world cup. i hope the olympic games will be next. the implication of not hosting these games speaks to a lack of infrastructure. someone made mention of sex slaves. that and -- that exist in the u.s.. the corporate interests? it is good that some of them left when mandela took power. host: thank you, color. guest: he is right. this is what -- thank you, caller. guest: he is right. it is a message that we think you can't do it. he mentioned that the world is -- he read that you can add to it. he mentioned that the world is changing. there is a movement toward parity in international soccer that is probably reflective of a broader international trends. the game was dominated by europe, and, then, these two latin american power's, and yet the last world cup, teams from turkey and korea have made it to the semifinals. you have a situation where almost any team can play another te

so there's been a lot of discussion about whether south africa is really the most africa is really the most appropriate country, south africans themselves have made an effort in their presence to represent more than themselves, to represent the continent themselves. but that's not the same as having other african countries there. if in seoul, korea in november, the next summit, the koreans will propose to put development within the g 20 in a different way than in the g-8. you notice yesterday there was a lot of foe focus on foreign aid. aid. most, since there are 10 emerging markets in the g-20, they have a different take on this that development is an internal dynamic, that it is more than aid. it is trade. so there's a different way that g-20 could frame this. and if the g-20 does take on this development issue, i think you can expect that they will have to have more of the lower income developing countries at the table and you might see a seat or two going to other african either nations or regional groupings. host: our next call, joseph on our line for republicans out of virginia.

these are natural resources that belong to africa. [inaudible] you are making a comparison about the movie with johnny depp. people do not even have tv's to watch these movies. they hear these things passed down through generations. host: you are breaking up a little bit. donna hopkins, any last words? guest: i have a common 3 we have great empathy for the fact that poverty is a crushing problem in africa. i think the people who would excuse piracy on the basis of poverty do great disrespect to the millions of proud and productive smalleomalis for tryg to deal with their situation in ways that do not involve the extortion of other human beings. the proceeds from piracy do not helping alleviate the poverty of these nations. piracy is adding to the poverty of the nation because it suppresses international development. suppresses tourism. it is discouraging humanitarian aid. the united states government is aware and we're doing a great deal to try to address it. host: donna hopkins with the state department, thank you for being with us.

and i want you to know that i recently took down to south africa, madam speaker, a project named after a gentleman who was the face of hollywood, because i was told several years ago that they were getting ready to close the rosa parks library and information in cape town, south africa, and that is the information septre attached to our embassy, the u.s. embassy. they were going to close it down because, they said, the cold war was over. so i took 100 of america's best and loved films that they love all offer the world, that shows our principles, our values, our beliefs, and our humanity because everyone is influenced by our movies. and i also want to say, madam speaker, that as our image has been tarnished, i felt that our movies really who portray them, the classic movies and the people who starred in those movies who have a star in the walk of fame could be recognized in another country and help improve our image. so i would hope that all members , madam speaker, recognizing that they represent the people of america and the members here will vote to support an industry that really s

operation is very different than saying we are going to specifically target adulterated medicine in africa, for example. the idea is that you want to get very specific as possible, do the analysis, understand problem, develop a tailor-make intervention, and then evaluate it. if it works, great, move on to the bengals, but go back to it later to make sure the problem is still addressed. if it does not fix, go back over and start a new intervention. the second component is the crime triangle, and that identifies all the basic elements that need to come together to formulate a crime. for example, the basic elements include a willing offender, someone who is willing to commit a crime, some kind of target or a victim -- this could be an individual, a person, a company, what have you -- and some kind of physical or virtual space. these elements have to come together. each of these elements are also influenced by what are called controllers. offenders are influenced not by their own decision -- not just by their own decision making, but by their peers, and other groups. if a person is in a gang o

it's not far from the southern tip of africa, where the atlantic and indian oceans meet.er is rich in nutrients, which attract whales, huge shoals of fish, and seals, some 60,000 of them. seals are a prime target for great whites. early one morning, rutzen takes us to an area called "shark alley". the seals pass through here searching for food. there are plenty of fish in the sea. why... why are sharks so interested in the seal? >> rutzen: the reason for that is the blubber. marine mammals have a blubber layer, and their blubber... whoa! big shark. their blubber layer is extremely energy-rich. >> cooper: oh, my god. whoa! >> rutzen: that's what i'm talking about. >> cooper: the sharks leap straight out of the water, stunning the seals before devouring them. seals are mammals; they're quick, agile, and smart. but as rutzen has learned, they are no match for the power, speed, and intelligence of the great whites. they have to outsmart the seal. >> rutzen: they... if they weren't as smart or smarter than the seal, they wouldn't have eaten them. >> cooper: watching great whit

at some point, he did turn his attention to africa. he pursued a very active anpoliy with the africans, which led to the creation of the african union on september 9, 1999. he became the chairman last year. he was a very active member last year, trying to promote a one africa policy, which i think has been met with a lot of resistance among several of the africans, because it was moving too quickly. i think they thought the concept was a good one, but that the timing was just not right, given the differences in the states of development, especially in terms of governmental structures of various african countries. i think he sees himself in libya playing the role in both. he may not be as active as he was in africa, just by virtue of the fact that he is no longer chairman. but certainly, as they hosted the arab league summit, back in march, he certainly played an active role in that. i think he is trying to do both. i think he sees himself as a vital member of both worlds. >> yes. thank you very much.

i just returned from west africa earlier this week where regional leaders from countries throughout west africa presented their own food security plan and committed to nearly doubling their investment in food security. the identified strategic intervention for eliminating hunger such as investing in improved needs or investing in reducing barriers to transborder trades of food can go from food surplus region to food deficit region. we will coordinate with others to invest in these country owned plans because it is less costly and more compassionate to prevent famine than it is to feed the starving. and we will make sure the plants focus on women who make up more than 70% of all agricultural producers in sub-saharan africa and are a big part of the solution. but a moderate agency must work with the link between the a opportunity to lead a healthy productive life and our own national security. is stronger. since the beginning of the civilian uplift in march of 2009, usaid is more than tripled its staff and afghanistan. right now, usaid field personnel are working side by side with the troo

affiliate's are struggling in places like north africa. i do not think of the past couple of years that is a grab has gone anywhere close -- that zagreb has got as close. the have adopted some of the thinking. fewer tax on local targets, more tax on heads of the snake. oil companies or governments leave and the local government is more susceptible to the revolutionary movement. local government in algeria was not susceptible 20 years ago. the message of al qaeda was you were successful in overthrowing the government because they had the support of the head of the snake. that is the transition in thinking for terrorists. raise the bar, raise the level of your targeting. from the locals o the ffreigners so when the foreigners leave the locals will go down more easily. i do not think there are doing that well. i think they took a huge hit that really decimated the organization. they have a structure, as i mentioned earlier, was the most remarkably organized and disciplined of any group outside al qaeda. once they made the mistake of attacking

if you go to africa, this has happened. transparent process requires good laws. and good operators athe helm. the ministryf mines in afghanistan, about four or five years ago, would have started a process of procurement for this copper mine. that process has been questioned. there are many questions about that process. the mineral rights -- other than copper, there are other minerals in that mine. there are subcontracts. in order to produce energy, there are contracts for coal and that is in question, in my opinion. the amount of coal that is being extracted to produce energy for them in -- that mine is twice as much as is needed for the production of energy. the rest of that energy sold in the market. that in itself is something that has to be questioned and revisited. our donor nations would -- were participating in bankrolling security and development ao have the burden to come with us and join us in creating a process with which we have a transparent procurement system in place. we're not only companies bid but also we have had an experience three or four mon

the other place where there is long term potential is number africa where al qaeda has a very strongink as well. while we focus on afghanistan and pakistan which is where the al qaeda leadership presides, it is the network which is still extremely dangerous and intent on executing the kind of potential attacks that result in detroit on christmas and recently in times square. >> mr. psychiatry and ed morrill mullen, thank you for your testimony this morning. >> mr. chairman, at the risk of prolonging the hearing, could i take just a moment to address the question to put to me in your opening statement? >> yes, sir. >> first of all, one of the frustrations i have had ever since taking this job has been the department of defense is organized and structured to plan for the war but not wage war and the only way that i have been able that i found i have been able to get the kind of urgent action to create the mrap to get the additional intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance work to do to counter ied effort has been battling to get their the groups that you described in the task force

. >> larry: you just performed in africa. >> yeah. in the gambia. i did a sort of tribute to him. three-minute poem of his, larry. and the strangest thing. before we started, the moon was covered with clouds, and michael was talking about planet earth for three minutes and this voice the ringing all over the stadium, so beautiful. and all of a sudden the moon was so bright and clear, and when it finished, the cloud was closed the moon up against it. everybody after the show said did you look at moon when your brother was talking? i said, i felt a very, very magical moment during that time. >> larry: everywhere you go, almost every day, you hear the name michael, right? >> yes. >> larry: paparazzi still follow you around? >> yes, there is one that i really wanted to jump on and knock him out the other day. he was being very disrespectful. i'm glad i didn't. i held my cool. you get like that sometimes, too, i'm pretty sure. >> larry: see video of jermaine's trip by going to cnn.com/larryking. michael jackson was a pop icon before he died. as a child and front man with the jackson fi

if thisororium extends, they will float those rigs to brazil or the coast of africa or elsewhere, andegin job there. jobs are not just lost for six months they are lost in perpetuity. host: are you hearingrom these companies all over this issue? gues i have learned in this job to say what i have been ld, not wh know. but morgan stanl has saithat only one in 20 chance moratorium will end in six months a moratoriumis instituted. if you're a persont( that works or $500,000 per day and it only you two weeks to flow to the coast of africa with a one in 20 chance, would you decide? host: why not step back and given the outcome of this oi spill, the impact on the shoreline, which is also jobs the fherman, e shrimpers who cannot do because of the oil spill, why not take a step back and wait? guest: there is a plan for increasing safety. it is from the national academy of engineering, i believe. and they mention these experts t tey peerying tha reviewed the recomndatn. but experts came out yesterday with a skating revival of that, saying that theyoot agree scathin buttal of that saying that they d

traditionally we did this with special force who went out and train a couple of brigades in some country in africa or latin america. now, we are doing, again, bulk industrial strength efforts and we're having to use conventional force in very significant ways. they dwarf the numbers of our green berets. i think we've done a reasonably good job in terms of doing that and then developing doctrine, the preparation of these forces, for deployment and the rest of that as well. >> thank you. i'm out of time but i do want to let you know, i'll submit for the record, i'm very concerned about this situation in kurdistan and the stability of that government, our relationship with that government as it relates to our airfield there. they arrested the president's son in the uk and there's serious allegations of skimming on fuel contracts. we have a back up of trains with fuel. that northern supply route is, we've and the a long time to get it in place and it looks precarious to me right now and that is of great concern so i'll address some questions to the record and will look forward to learning where you al

we need to catch up to the fact that if particularly among the markets in eastern europe, in south africa and many other african nations, in latin america, these kinds of democracy rforms movements are actually financed and initiated from inside the government. he they are very much till pushefrom outside the government. and a healthy democracy you want both. because we concluded to be examples, probably particularly in latin america where by the factthey're coming out of government, by definition means whole subcultures in the country still feel excluded. but the point is, we think, for organizations that are here today joining with brookings to say its time for a broad-based democracy reform initiative, which builds theoalition of the very sparse that work inside the beltway, and need to work inside the beltway, and rededicate itself to discovering the national narrative that actually matches the instinct that already exists amongst millions ofamericans, that we n do better than we are doing today. 90. [applause] >> i want to thank carolyn for the inspiring talk. i also want to note tha

and that south africa gave up its atomic weapons program. the threat, my friends, in iran is crystal clear. and its regime closes in on a nuclear weapon. so a crystal clear response by us is urgent. while i support this bill, much of this legislation unfortunately is a muddle. good sanctions, good sanctions in this bill are weakened by delays and by the possibility of waiver after waiver. for this, the obama administration gets the main blame. from the beginning it has insisted on excessive leeway to implement new sanctions. it doesn't want to be forced into dramatic actton. so, yes, we do provide the tools with this bill, they're in there. but there's little guarantee that those tools will be used. for example, the house bill aimed to target iran's energy sector. yet with this conference report, a foreign oil company could avoid even the investigation required to sanction it for at least one year. the many companies from china and elsewhere rapidly building iran's energy facilities today will be surely exempted from these sanctions. this re

turning to africa. united states government expresses concern over a pattern of increasing political repression and the deteriorating environment for civil and political rights including the arrest of oppositional leader as juaned lys and peaceful demonstrators. sudan authorities released one after several hours while continuing to hold the other in detention. we're troubled by the closure of the newspaper there and arrests and a ledged miss treatment ofural a shab treatments and they prevented several activists from departing the country to participate in the congress. in june authorities arrested several individuals in connection with a doctors strike and police reportedly injured at least 12 persons violently dispersing a peaceful program. we want to ensure those in custody are afforded due process and receive medical access. and call for security agencies to seize any censorship of media. the united states is concerns by the continues of harass meant of journalists and nongovernment organizations an
