i think general breedlove enjoys the support of e allies.here has been a comment he is a step ahead of some of the capitals and his public comments about theresence of russian forces in eastern ukraine. as he has pointed out he is drawing g on combined nato intelligence including from germany, the u.k., france, the u.s., and many other countries. he may see that information faster and it might catch people by surprise once in a while. he has total support and the speaking for all t the allies. vago: even the nations that helped negotiate the minsk accords have an uneasy feeling the cease-fire is not going to last and russia going to get back to its old tricks. it has the playbook. putin is driving this train. it is trying to take ukraine one bite at a time. even though there is a pause, eryone expects them to start ain to take mary apple -- mariopol. what can nato members do to stop further russian aggression in ukraine? guest: first of all, we hope the mik agreements will be upheld, and that they will lead to the ultimate g goal of restorin

all 28 nato allies have provided some form of security assistance to ukraine. that is one of the commitments we made to each other at wales. it can take the form of training. it can take the form of medical needs. the u.k. in poland just announced they will start training ukrainians along the lines of notifications that we have sent up to you all. where the divide happens and where the debate happens, and there are folks on both sides of the debate, is the question of the lee -- the question of the leaf ballot he of the weapons. -- lethality of the weapons. the president has discussed this with his partners, most notably with chancellor merkel. that conversation continues. >> let me ask a little bit different. what my concern is even before we can deal with what is taking place militarily, a few folks i spoke with, they are really concerned about the dire straits of the economics of the economy of ukraine. in fact, some of them have said this could cause the ukrainian government to fall before we get further down the road. and that to even the money that we giv

or our allies remains absolutely the worst case scenario. therefore, deterring strategic attack, including nuclear attack must remain the number one priority for the department of defense. 21st century deterrence concepts still sound familiar. deny benefits and impose costs and a range of options for the president to use as needed in a conflict. the commitment to insure our allies and partners by extending our umbrella to them. how they apply those concerts in the 21st century is very different. 21st century deterrence must be tailored to a wide variety of actors and scenarios. one size can no longer fit all. 21st century determines demands the flexible application of the full range of complementary military capability. strong conventional forces, missile defenses, brazilian space and cyberspace capabilities, effective command and control and the ultimate possibility of a u.s. nuclear response in extreme circumstances for vital national interests. we no longer have to threaten nuclear used to compensate for conventional inferiority, but no c

what assures an ally may or may not did and adversary.t deters and adversary, may or may not deter an ally. we have to mindful of both of those needs. when we are structuring our force when we are dealing with all kinds of factors like going to our cap relations. this second thing i would say is that there is no question in my mind that this notion of what some have called tailored deterrence, where you looking specifically adversary light adversary, or actor by actor you pick your way to describe who you're trying to deter. to really have some kind of confidence about how to go about it requires a deep understanding of who they are how they think, what they do how they decide, who decides although the things that go with it. we did not know it right away in the cold war about the soviet union, that took a long time. i think this is an equal challenge for the intelligence community today. they have some tremendous tools as you know, to try to understand these things. by the way, i think one of the adjusting things today is that everything

the external pressure from allies. binyamin netanyahu in israel escalated his rhetoric against the deal. the saudis seem nontoo happy either. >> i would say two things what is remarkable for me and notable for people to keep in mind is this is six partners on one side of the table, and iran on the other. they include china, russia, and the fact this we stayed together this long and been on the same page is remarkable. it speaks volumes to the cohesion of the coalition. and israel, close ally of the united states one that we would stand by and saudi arabia as well, an ally in the region i would say that prime minister binyamin netanyahu actually marginalized himself. the visit to congress the letter from the republican senators. that really showed i think true colours of the opposition. the opposition is not in the interests of a better deal. they are maxim us looking to undermine any deal. >> talking in those terms, working to prevent the spread of mass destruction. as the deal is configured does it do enough to preven

and saudi arabian ally for 30 years is no longer their friend as he has allied himself with the houthi movement. >> this is a proxy war isn't it with shia iran backed houthis and the former president saleh against saudi arabia and the other regional sunni muslims backing president hadi. >> actually the war is a yemeni yemeni war. saudi arabia wasn't involved in this at all. the heughtsz versus anybody who wos oppose them and ideologically speaking, it was houthis against al qaeda in the arabian peninsula and i.s.i.s. and outside that there was no other regional actor involved in this. the proxy war it is essential that the conflict on the ground in yemen is a yemeni conflict in its essence. the heughtsz houthis are yemeni and they have economisted since the either '. they are actually yemenis some and i think in january when all major embassies withdrew and pulled their forces out of yemen the international communitytytyty represented by the u.s., the u.k, ksa and other countries when they withdrew their diplomats from yemen i think the houthis were pushed more into the arms of iran. i

i think there was a secret plan between them and the group's main ally the president saleh. initially they portrayed the whole thing as a revolution for the people. as anti-government protests, protests against the economic conditions, but i think they had in mind what to do next. when they launched the -- they started going down from sadder, i think that was around in august they went downwards so when they came to sanaa they stage ahead few days of frosts and clashes and overran the entire capital. they control the key government buildings, they took military bases and they went onto take other provinces. in total they controlled at least nine provinces they did meet resistence in tweet south of sanaa because they didn't have the traditional is support. they those areas were not in those areas so therefore they didn't have that support. >> so they had that support so they have been successful. how much has the failure of president hadi's leadership fed to their success? >> to acquire a large extend -- to quite a large extent, because president hadi's critics say he's a ver

i think with respect to israel which is obviously our closest ally, our most loyal ally in the middle east and a model of democracy and a country that's willing to fight and defend itself doesn't ask americans to send american boys and girls over there to defend the jewish state, we now see this terrible relationship between president obama and prime minister netanyahu. and it sounds like president obama was committed to the defeat of the prime minister and it sounds like allegations that money was being spend, funding was being provided in order to facilitate that defeat. >> it's an interesting list of so-called partners for one voice. it includes labored friends of palestine in the middle east, british seculars and the christian and muslim forum. these are -- this is an interesting list. it just doesn't really answer whose interests are being pursued here. >> it's a very troubling issue. i mean, there seems to have been clear and blatant interference in the israeli election. i think what is missing here, regardless of who won that election, whether it was benjamin netanyahu, the 4re

they spend huge amounts on the war and let huge amounts to allies. they said the french and belgians are going to get recompense for the damage done to their land, what about us? the french managed to argue that the pensions being paid to widows should be included in the bill. you could say wilson should not have gone along with this, but it was difficult to go against the allies on this. what they were doing was drying up a treaty with germany. if he failed to compromise, it might have broken down because this is something the french in particular were not prepared to compromise on. what the french did do is they backed down on a lot. they backed down on occupying germany. they backed down on long-term proposals to break germany up. the compromise was not just on wilson's side. the french compromised, the british compromised. it was a difficult situation. one thing wilson might have contemplated, but he was against it and so were his advisers and it would have been difficult was to cancel our debts to the united states. the allies have borrowed $9 b

and israel's a strong american ally a democracy free enterprise and a strong american ally. don't we wish the entire middle east looked that way? don't we wish we had more countries in the middle east that looked like israel, that were our allies, that were democratic and were -- and had a free and prosperous economy? how much better would the world be if the middle east looked more like israel? and less like iraq and syria and other places look like at this moment? there's another reason why we should care about israel. israel's not just another country. it has a special and unique purpose. it was founded as the homeland for the jewish people in the aftermath of the second world war and of the holocaust. where over 6 million human beings were slaughtered and it was founded on the promise that never again in the history of the world would there not be a place for the jewish people to go and be safe. it's not just a nation. it is a nation with a special and unique purpose unlike any other nation in the world. and i for one am proud that the united states has stood with israel

and allied interests for decades. dov: i am pretty much the same. i do not think we can hope to have any influence unless we have some boots on the ground. i think that the president's reluctance to keep troops in afghanistan, now he is saying up to 2015, to the end of the seer aggressively not the way to go. i think the best example and best reason for saying it is not the way to go is if you look at the timeline and rock -- in iraq. mr. maliki becomes a real dictator after we pull out. it is arguable that if you not behave the way he had, the sunnis would not be behaving the way they are. having that presence there, it is not a massive presence, i totally agree it is very important. we are not it 1914, we in 1912 to 1913. the balkan wars, the wars that preceded the big one. you might say this the spanish civil war, where you proxy war -- have a proxy war. it is not going to be a world war, but it will be released wide war, and will be something like the 30 years war but longer. the 30 years war was a religious worth the end of the day. and however
