and brandeis' uncle was a zionist, so brandeis did not know it at the time. and he first becomes aware of zionism in 1910 when a reporter, jacob dehas, interviews him. brandeis then studies and eventually comes to the conclusion that zionism is a type of idealistic form that he could support. now, he never was religious. he says that his mother did not believe that anyone should be bound to any one religion, rather, they should be aware of and sensitive to all religions and treat them all with respect. he never denied his judaism, but considering he was one of the most successful lawyers in boston, he had very little to do with the jewish community in boston. he made donations to various jewish charities, but they were for the amounts of money he had nominal compared to some of the money he put into other reforms. >> tell us about the dreyfus trial just for a moment. >> alfred dreyfus was a captain in the french army. and there was a scandal in which it was determined that a spy had stolen military secrets for the germans, france's age-old enemies. and dreyfu

justice brandeis some time ago said sunlight is the best disinfectant. he was talking in another era about a different issue, but that comment holds to this. without international effort, international focus, without global political will, this problem will not go away. neither will the problems of terrorism or transnational crime, because the connective tissue is the opacity in the financial system. and until organizations like the g20 and others really focus on this, we're going to be talking about this problem for quite a long time. >> do you want to comment, mr. secretary general? >> just briefly, chair. i think the interconnections you talked about are supported by what we observe through the convention. it's supported by what interpol is observing and has passed resolutions on, and is also observed by the u.n. commission on crime prevention and criminal justice and the resolutions they passed on the topic. >> dr. douglas-hamilton, you mentioned doppler rad eed dar p possibility of thinking out of the box. can you fill that in a little bit for us? >
