president bashir, i have a hospital in thi south, and bashir said the one and only sentence he uttered in english during the whole time whichdd is to his aide, he turnr to his aide and said, center that the hospital we -- isn't that the hospital we bombed? and graham leaned forward and said, twice, and mow missed. tha and -- you missed. what happened next was even more fascinating.what graham told me later that he remembered that in the pocket of his blue blazer he had a george w. bush 2004 re-election pin which he'd taken from the deske of karl rove's secretary. so he leaned forward and took the pin from his pocket and gave it to bashir and said, mr.e president, i understand you'll be speaking to my president later today. why don't you tell him you're his first voter here in the sudan. so what does that mean?. if essentially, that means thatm watch out, bashir. i've got the ear of the president, and i found that particularly interesting at the time because of the relationshia between state and foreign policy which goes so unexplored becauso we don't really know who are serving as d ou

quickly and if it happens again we just keep pushing and eventually i am sure at some point* president bashir will face justice breyer second question, thank god i wrote it down. i will be with an curry and george clooney next week because we are about 100 days away from a referendum in southern sudan to determine whether or not the southern one-third of the country basically secedes from sudan to create two new countries and we want to highlight what is happening there because the potential birthing of a new country is leading to great fears that war will resume and southern sudan. at the height of death and destruction and genocide and darfur the high range of estimates, we don't really know, but 400,000 may be. southern sudan 2.25 millions of the second deadliest since world war ii. all hands on deck to try to prevent the spread of the rest of metaphor of the two trains on the same track and you can see it from far away. we know it is coming and there are side rails to be taken so we can divert the train wreck through the pump day supply missing in united action and often u.s. leadership w

bashir, some of you may know, is the first head of state to be indicted for genocide in this darfur. let's not be hasty and do sanctions on sudan. let's engage him with business. let's love him to death with business. let's do business with this oil-rich regime. anyway, he's now face 15g years, so we don't have to worry about him. we do have to worry about uganda. a country not a lot of people pay attention to, but the family did x. they did so, again w the best of intentions. the man who kind of forged that relationship between the family and uganda considers himself a liberal, was pursuing what he thought was humanitarian work, was supporting a bright and shining hope for this african nation. 1986 when he began sort of facilitating foreign aid, making connections for the new president many washington. in washington. the president had been a leftist, the family wrote in a document it's important that we keep this country christian. and so it has become christian and a revival nation. and you know that christianity in uganda? it's actually done a lot of great things. it kit grade thi

like the bashir whose say they're just scraping by. >> translator: the government has never given usnything, but there are a few humanitarian organizations which sometimes give us food, clothes and the money. >> reporter: but the vast majority of christian refugees have fled iraq altogether, and are living in neighboring countries, like jordan and syria. hristian leaders here are now debating how to keep the remaining members of their community from leaving. some hope a new election law giving christian as minimum of five seats in iraq's parliament will increase their influence. other leaders have been talking about establishing a so-called safe zone for christians in the plains, but luis, a local council member says it's a bad idea. >> translator: a zone would be a risky solution for christians because many other group oes pose it. and if the christians bing this issue up against, there will be more threats and killings and migrations. >> reporter: instead, he says he would welcome u.s. and foreign aid to create jobs here as well as to establish local plit unol units manned by chris

look at for example the international criminal court which says you refer to it had been indicted al bashir of sudan on the international criminal court might be housed in the hague it might be in western europe but the fact is it's supported by nations all around the world and ironically in fact it's the united states that has particularly under the previous administration the bush administration which really very much tried not simply to boycott the i.c.c. but really tried to railroad it really tried to make sure that the flexion court never really got off the ground and of course it is an irony because if you go back to the time of nuremberg it was a mistake the case that the united states was the principal mover behind the idea of using the criminal law before an international tribunal as a way of responding to atrocities committed by state actors when you think about that bill i mean if you're a closer friend of the united the united states of course doesn't recognize these courts say israel does and a number of other countries don't i mean how much is that the legitimize the entire co

bashir some of you may know is the first sitting head of state to be-- but let's not be hasty and the sanctions on sudan. let's engage them with business. let's love him to death with business. let's do business with this oil-rich regime. anyway he is now facing 15 years so we don't have to worry about him. we have to worry about uganda. uganda, a country not a lot of people pay attention to, but the family did. and they did so again with best of intentions. the many kind of force that relationship between the family in uganda considers himself a liberal, was pursuing what he thought was humanitarian work, sit hoarding a bright and shining hope or this african nation. 1986 when he began facilitating foreign aid, making connections for the new president in washington. the president had done a leftist the family wrote a document and it is important to keep this country christian. and so it had become christian. revival nation and the christianity in uganda has done a lot of great things. they actually turned around the aids rate. at duke good things that a country who suffered under ed

cooperative for the bush administration and obama administration, and in terms of how they handled bashir and negotiations. two, i don't think russia will stop the cooperation if we don't have the start treaty, but it is an unnecessary argument there are problems that can be and should be addressed in the ratification. we need to get agreement on the modernization programs so that as long as we have nuclear weapons, which will be for a considerable period of time, they are monitored. i think there is a way forward that early on, in the new congress -- >> not in the lame-duck. >> early in the new congress, we can look at a good number of republicans joining the democrats and ratifying -- >> you think sen. kyl would agree to modernization -- >> there is a modernization program that he and a lot of people -- a lot of people -- brent scowcroft and i were up testifying and the book talked about the need for the modernization -- and we both talked about the need for a modernization program. i would rather see it done that way rather than ramming it through lame duck, because it would be a good

it is not just a little bashir and there. close to 50,000 troops in afghanistan are non-american. united states is 100,000, but over 45,000 arnon-american. and when you think about the other statistic that people need to understand is that well over a third of the body bags that come home from afghanistan did not come to united states, they go to other countries that are suffering casualty rates that are larger on a per-capita basis than the united states. little countries doing big things, that is what this alliance is about, and that is why it is so important we maintain the alliance and its capability to success in afghanistan and what was reaffirmed in lisbon over the weekend. host: we have it twitter message that rights, how successful have you been in eliminating opium addiction and illiteracy in the afghan trainees to achieve nato goals? guest: that is a great question, because it is one of the greatest problems we have. narcotics use is quite extensive. one of the things we're doing is one of the new efforts we are trying to put them to good use is literacy training. when

especially bashir, he has really bombed hospitals.gramm has seen that up front which is what really shaped his opinions about as long. so he said, mr. president, i have a hospital in the south. he said the one and only sentence he added in english during the whole time. he turned to his aid. isn't that the hospital we bond? and graeme leaned forward and said twice come into mist. with that most of us were ushered out into the driveway. what happened next was even more fascinating. gramm told me later that he remembered that in the pocket of his blue blazer he had a george he leaned forward and took the pen from his pocket and give it to him and said, mr. president, i understand you'll be speaking to my president later today, why don't you tell him. so what does that mean? is sincerely that means that watch out. i've got to hear the president. i found that particularly interesting at the time because of the relationship between faith and foreign policy which goes so unexplored. we don't really know. .. >> hello, i appreciate the author
