in the second act, we have bosnia.d about on this show so eloquently, and then in the third act, we had him on the different clips of him in various places. you got a sense of what he was saying. how frustrated he was. that he was not able to advance what he thought were good and important ideas, and you can see some of the tensions coming to a head with him and people in the white house. but there is other stuff in there, where he goes to the theater and talks about how brilliant south pacific is at lincoln center. they are kind of like, this is what i had to eat. they are remarkable. charlie: there is also this. he wanted to create his own definition of his place. and that a lot of what he said -- wanted to be the shepherd of his own legacy. yes? david: i think he did. he was planning to write a book. the week he died, he had spoken to his literary agent. and to his speakers agent, and my sense was he was looking to get out in he wanted to july 2011. a cop he could and then he would , say, ok, i will write a book. he

that was a tough issue in bosnia.e got together with a number of countries, came out with something called a contact group plan, we said bosnia should exist within its international borders, have this kind of government that kind of judiciary, bosnia should have a new constitution and went forward with that and people who rejected it we call rejectionists and people who supported it we call moderatists. do we give them a questionnaire? how does it work? i think we have a serious problem in the fact that we have not come out with some kind of plan going forward. and don't seem to have anything much beyond complaining about that the russians do and complaining about what everybody does. >> that vacuum has created an opportunity for putin to be the leader of the world. >> yes. it has put him in a stronger position. i want to emphasize, it is a short-term position. i don't necessarily want to be looking at his inbox. he has a lot of problems. the fact is for now, he's mother na marginalized us. when the united states anno

i think you heard of bosnia. it's a place where it's nobody's ideal of how a country should function. it's what i said. bosnia, what you said in response to my idea, it's the model. bodneya didn't have jihadists trying to blow people up or the degree of death and devastation. it had a per capita amount of suffering similar to what syria experienced. ultimately a force went in, deploying along the ethnic separation lines, and helped a weak central government. it would be harder in syria for 1,000 reasons, but it's the right model. >> the part i want to ask you about is the danger, if you look at afghanistan, you look at libya, iraq. all of these places have been left after a form of war governing over ethnic groups, is here? >> i don't think the same diagnosis can be applied to each of those cases. in iraq, the prop is there was never a government seen as legitimate. the army and police were put under baghdad. they were seen as taken over by the shia majority, by iran and irani sympathizers. it was a different pro

strobe talbot one of his closest friends, strobe said the same during bosnia was diplomacy backed by force. i think that's the key to the film in afghanistan. it was the day of the generals. we should be asking, who should be making our foreign policy? the diplomats and the generals. >> rose: what did you know about your dad that you didn't know? >> the broad strokes, i understood. i read articles and books about him and all the different accounts of what he achieved. there was understanding feeling in the details. it's fascinating how people come around a table and make peace and it's remarkable. it's most remarkable in dayton. here we are 20 years later. 20 years later, no shots fired in anger. our troops have been safe and we've maintained a peace. it's a tenuous peace and one of my real hopes with this film is that that is to be examened. here we are 20 years later, significant accomplishment of the clinton administration and i hope americans won't take a lot of american leadership, they will take some and look and make sure that thing keeps the peace as it was intended. >> rose:

alan smiche from bosnia was told to pack up his family and leave. no germany, bosnia. >> yeah, go. >> reporter: the crisis leaves germany with several problems-- what to do next with the hundreds of thousands who qualify for asylum and how to deport the hundreds of thousands who don't. successful applicants are provided with food and housing and some help finding a job. those who are rejected are ordered to leave the country, and, scott, a police spokesman told us those who refuse are arrested, taken to the airport, and sent home. >> pelley: charlie d'agata reporting from berlin for us tonight, charlie, thanks. today, the american commander in afghanistan told congress that his forces are responsible for the airstrike this weekend that civilians. general john campbell said the attack was directed by u.s. troops on the ground after afghan forces called for help. he called it a mistake, and he ordered all u.s. personnel retrained on rules of engagement. campbell also said today that president obama should reconsider his plan to reduce u.s. troop stren

i mentioned the way bosnia ended.snia was four years of approval, terrible civil war, with outside actors fueling genocidal nationals. ultimately we ended up having to deal with the russians, deal with the extreme nationalists. -- it was built on ethnic cleansing, which we said we would never accept. ultimately, to end that war had to recognize that part of the country would be run by the bosnian serbs. unsatisfying and it was not what we ideally would have liked to see, which is a unified country where everyone is living together. proxy war,our years that was the best we could do, and it was also the moral thing to do. it ended a war, and if we could have an outcome in syria that may syria look like bosnia today, i think we would all be thrilled. it's not just us and the ruffians -- not just us and the russians. they need to understand that they are buying many more years or decades of increased sectarianism which is ripping apart every other country in the region along sectarian lines. a proxy war,sk of we are in a

in the political piece that i wrote i mentioned the way bosnia ended, and bosnia was also four years of a brutal, terrible civil war and in some ways a proxy war. we as outside actors fueling genocidal nationalists. ultimately we ended up having to deal with the russians, deal with these extreme nationalists in serbia and croatia. we recognized, to end the war, part of the country would be run by the bosnian serbs. it was unsatisfying and not ideally what we would like to see, a unified country where everyone was living together, but after four years of proxy war, that was the best we could do and also the moral thing to do because it ended the war and, you know, if we could have an outcome in syria that made syria look like bosnia today, i think we would all be absolutely thrilled. so i think that's why -- you know, andeth not just us and the russians. saudi arabia and iran need to be part of the same discussion. that's the hard part because they seem determined to fuel a proxy war. if they fuel it they need to understand they are buying many more years or decades of increaseincreas

places like bosnia have been receiving 180 millimeters of rainfall in the past 24 hours.top of that an additional 100 millimeters could cause flooding there as well. not a lot of snow already in sight. it's going to be dissipating. however, the gusts will still be reaching about 80 kilometers per hour. to the west of this, we're not looking at a really severe kind of weather out there in the iberian peninsula, madrid 20 with sunshine. eastern locations also looking very mild with kiev reaching 12 degrees where your average is around 5 for this time of the year. it's still hot here in the tropics and it's feeding these systems. let's talk about koppu, "cup" in japanese, it's going to be pounding these areas, especially in northern luzon, with many cups of water. drenching amounts of rainfall could be pulling into these areas as possibly a very strong typhoon status before hitting the eastern coast. that's going to be possibly creating some catastrophic disaster with severe flooding because this system is going to be making landfall here, staying here over the 48 hours. so

my idea is what i call a bosnia model where we envision a divided syria with different regions and there could be a region for the group that assad comes from and populates the mediterranean coast of the country and central mountains and central cities. and this is where russia has the naval base. that solution where assad would go in to internal exile in that zone. and russia would be the peace keeping force for that zone and we could live with that. and once we have to make progress and strengthen the moderate operation and weakening isil. that's the vision we should be working forward. and strengthen with a lot more conviction and emphasis. >> do the leverage we need to accomplish the mission that we should map out at this point? >> not at that point, absolutely not, great question, jenna. we have been reluctant to provide meaningful resources for the moderate opposition. we have applied standards to make it impossible to rekraut and as senator rubio said. putin is inflicting harm on the battlefield. and so we will work harder to strengthen a moderate opposition. this will involve ame
