airlines, including delta, american united said in a statement that their pilots undergo rigorous evaluations in the hiring process. and the faa requires pilots to disclose all existing psychological conditions and medications. but the same is not always true for pilots on international carriers. >> there is no standard within certain countries' industries, much less across the globe. >> the major psychological screening for airline pilots is only in the hiring phase. after that there is no particular routine screening or rescreening of people. one of the reasons is you're not really going to be able to find a way to do this effectively. it's much more effective to have everybody watching everybody else. >> reporter: lubitz's facebook page, taken down earlier today, offered no signs of emotional distress or clues of the tragedy to come. today my colleague terry moran, followed lubitz's trail, driving through the german countryside from dusseldorf where he had an apartment to his hometown in the shadow of a castle. >> this is the small air trap where andreas lubitz learned how to fly. the flig

and what the american people did. even the united states, the population than 140 million people, was running out of men to fight the war. so at the beginning of 1943, they allowed japanese americans who had been in the army to rejoin and let others either enlist or be drafted, but they were put in a segregated unit, like blacks, called negros then, or colored people, did not serve together, no matter what you see in the movies, did not serve together with whites nor the did the japanese. the japanese were formed into the 442nd regimental combat team, which fought in italy, france, and germany and became the most decorated military unit in american history. 11 medals of honor were given , including to a young hawaii and named them in way -- dan inouye, whose arm was blown off fighting in france, and became a senator who served for 40 years. the publicity surrounding the 442nd began to change the minds of the country about the japanese americans and their so-called anti-american attitudes. the public did not know that at the same time

americans. there were 5,000 in this unit. they are american soldiers and i know where they're buried. wish i could show some of them to you, charlie. i remember one japanese american. he was walking ahead of me in a forest in france. a german shell took off the right side of his face. i wish the boys of the lost baa toll ealon. the 442nd became very famous for rescuing battalion from a texas division that was lost behind enemy lines. so that hanley continued. the marvel is charlie, that these boys fight it all. they're good soldiers in spite of the racial prejudice shown by your paragraph by your newspaper. i know it makes a good joke, but it's the kind of joke that prejudice thrives upon. our system is supposed to make good americans out of anyone. it certainly has in the case of these boys. you and a few others make one wonder what we're fighting for. i hope it isn't racial prejudice. in orange county was a family named masuda. and they were imprisoned in hill river aez az. and then there were four sons, two of them were killed in germany. and when their sister and mother returned t

full decade's worth, when recent protests broke out in the muslim world that were anti-american directed at the united states, that same question arose, why could they possibly be so angry at us? it has evolved to the point where there was bafflement they were not grateful to the united states for all the freedom we brought them. this to me really underscores how completely muslims are excluded from anything we think about or talk about in the united states. themve debates about without their participation, we have discussions about what they are thinking without actually hearing what they are thinking. we have constant reports about who we are killing and how many people we are killing without ever stopping and thinking about who those people are or whether they have done anything that warranted that violence. so much so it was recently revealed a couple months ago by the new york times the obama administration has adopted a new definition of militants, which says that any military aged male and a strike zone, meaning any male who dies above the age of 16 or below the age of 55, is automatically deem

we know the americans formed a joint unit with the saudis. they say it's a planning sell with saudi arabia to coordinate u.s. military and intelligence support. it's unlikely we'll see american jets flying over the skies but there's a logistical intelligence support from the u.s. >> within obama's time in office there has been a lot of talk about u.s. involvement in this region in the middle east region and in wars around the world as well. as you touched on earlier in your answer to me. is there an appetite in the american public for the u.s. to get involved in yemen? >> well, let's be clear about the white house policy and what it has been under president obama, and that is to enable regional allies to enable friends of the united states to take on the fight rather than expect the u.s. to get involved. that is something that president obama pushed in libya, when he was keen that n.a.t.o. would take on the action the e.u. take on the action. in syria he looked at others and in yemen they looked to the likes of saudi arabia and the g.c.c. ther

congress' backing at this moment in time would dispel doubt that might exist anywhere that americans are united effort. >> the upper chamber at work the lower chamber on break. gregory meeks, good to see you. thanks for being with me. start with the draft proposal. president obama sent it to congress last month, again requesting authorization to use military force against isis. three year time limit. says there will be no enduring offensive ground operations by u.s. forces replaces the 2002 that congress granted to president bush for military force in the iraq war. house speaker boehner says it is alarmingly restrictive. some democrats say it is too vague. where do you stand? >> i stand that congress had been asking to be involved asking to make a statement. here is our chance to do so so that we can show what other position is and that we are united. i think the three year limitation is so we can also see what's taking place on the ground in three years and whether or not there's something new that needs to be done at that particular time. i'm also wanting to make sure that the authorization d

congress' backing at this moment in time would dispel doubt that might exist anywhere that americans are unitedthis effort. >> in the president's letter to congress requesting a vote on that authorization, he wrote, if you guys in congress cannot agree on some kind of new authorization for the us of american military force, the administration says, that's okay, we already have the authorization we need. what do you think of that? >> it's a bit of a ridiculous situation. the president has been at war in iraq and syria for six months now. he would now like cross' approval of that war while failing to appeal the underlying law. it would be nice to have your approval and stamp but if i can't get that, i'm going to prosecute this war, nonetheless. again, the defense secretary said today that approval from congress would send a message to our troops that we support them. those troops will have our support regardless. what those troops need is a strategy and a plan. you look at everywhere that we've intervened militarily over the last 20 years and i see failure. i do not see success. i do not see our

will be a violent reaction against the united nations, 22% of the funding for the united nations comes from the americand i'm in charge of that account. i'm not going to allow the united nations to be used as a way to get around the united states congress for a deal that effects the very existence of israel and our own national security. the worst possible outcome is for iran to get a nuclear weapon. >> all right. let me get this straight. so if president obama bypasses congress. >> right. >> goes to the u.n. to get the u.n. to lift its sanctions. >> to march jinellize. >> the u.s. senate. >> are you saying you have the authority and power senator lindsey graham to prevent the u.s. from funding the united nations. >> i'm saying that senator graham and others would view the u.n.'s action as provocative, marginalized to congress and they would be risking the funding that they received from the american taxpayer. >> risking is a lot different than saying they will. >> here is what i would do. if the u.n. did something that provocative lift the sanctions before we ever got a chance to look at it in congress

the war is a very little known among americans, it's the most important war fought between two neighbors in the western hemisphere in 1845 texas is annexed by the united states. but the texas boundary claim now becomes an american problem. >> and, it turns out, an opportunity for president james k polk, a slave holding democrat who believes god has ordain it had united states to spread across the continent. many opponents say this is man necessary destiny, including a fresh face freshman congressman from illinois. >> abraham lincoln is an opponent of this war. he gives a series of speeches blasting the polk administration. >> the war, the first in history documented with photographs, breaks out in april, 1846 mexico surrenders in 1848, losing half its national domain. >> the united states acquires not just the american southwest but also california. >> left unresolved, where slavery will be allowed in those territories. >> the debate over whether those territories are going to be slave or free is going to be so contentious and so divisive that it's ultimately going to lead to the civil war in 1861. >> patrick's box contains a number of civil war items

americans to think of. we tend to think contemporary partisan acrimony is unique. what we forget is in this critical time just how acrimonious and poisonous politics was in the united states. and also how dismal the consequences were as a result of it because there was possibility for compromise. most americans wanted in some form the united states to participate in the league were -- or an international organization. it did not come about because of the intransigentce and inflexibility of these people. it is true wilson had utmost contempt for lodge. it is also true that contempt was fully reciprocated. [laughter] lodge detested wilson. these were two men who loathed one another. i want to shift the context of the conversation for a few minutes. in the aftermath of world war ii, the treaty of versailles was going for world war ii. nowadays, the treaty of versailles, not the treaty of versailles, but the peacemakers of 1919 and 1920 are usually criticize for the problems in the middle east and persian gulf today. and that there is a huge amount of literature saying the problems in iraq and in syria today go back to the first world war. would you be kind enough to e

. >> would dispel doubt that americans are united in this effort. >> i believe that much of our strategy with regards to isis is being driven by a desire not to upset iran. tell me why i'm wrong. >> because the facts contradict that. >> today, republicans are standing behind that iran letter. >> we sent a message that this needs to be a good deal. >> my reaction was utter disbelief. >> it gave comfort to our enemies and pause to our allies. >> the associated press filed a lawsuit against the state department over clinton's records. >> she doesn't get to determine what is a public or personal record. >> i don't think convenience should trump national security. >> then they went back to writing their open letter to iran. >>> two secret service agents were involved in what appeared to be a drunk driving incident on the white house grounds last week. that's the latest secret service scandal being reported tonight by "the washington post." "the washington post" revealed that the department of homeland security inspector's general is investigating allegations that two secret service agents, in

these two commanders tried in vain to sort out the miscellaneous units that kelp -- cap filtering through. >> as the americanspproached in early march, i had at my disposal the bridgehead and a company of 125 men. they were sided with the planking of the railroad ridge in order to make it passable for traffic. the men had to work day and night in order to complete the bridge. besides these men, the bridge defense company was also under my command. it consisted of 35 men. all of home are still on the statement. some of these men were not able to manipulate the gun. >> the town had some advantages for both the attacker and the defender. from the standpoint of the attack there was high ground going into the canal where you could direct operations from but it was very easy to defend because of the crooked and narrow streets. particularly the 600 foot-high cliff on the opposite side that provided wonderful observations from 10 miles around from which the defenders could see anyone approaching the town. on the morning of march 7, we received orders and were given to cover the area. on the map we noticed the bridge.
