in an interview today our state department correspondent margaret brennan asked if a total troop pullout is a possibility if president karzai does not sign the security pact allowing troops to stay past 2014. >> it's a very real possibility because if we don't have a bilateral security agreement which i have noted, that means we can't protect our forces that would be here after 2014. no international partners will come. afghanistan essentially will be alone. but we have no other option. >> reporter: american people look at this, all the blood, all the treasure. they here things that karzai says about adding new demands before he signs a security agreement, just a refusal to comply. why can't americans look at that and say it's just not worth it. >> i think that it is a legitimate question, that we should ask that question. is it worth it or not worth it? it needs to be asked and especially in a representative government, a democracy those questions must be asked. so it is now up to president karzai to make a decision. >> reporter: did the u.s. miscalculate in thinking he could be a partn

morgan brennan joins you with what looks like a quick response for the white house. is it true?y. actually the white house has been working on revising the nsa program for a few months, but that meeting with tech leaders like apple's ceo tim cook and sheryl sandburg yesterday probably greased the bheels. a panel recommended that the nsa no longer keep a database, and also called for much more restrained when it comes to tracking foreign leaders, but these recommendations are just that. the obama administration said it will announce what changes it will actually make. also late today, a federal jury found former s.a.c. capital fund manager michael stein berg guilty. he faces a heavy prison term when sentenced this spring. legal experts believe this will increase pressure on matthew martoma, another former manager to finally cooperate with prosecutors and help them go after steven cohen. >>> we know one of the winners of last night's massive $648 megamillions drawing, a stone mountain, georgia woman claimed the prize late today. she is described only as a married mom. her half of

actually towards europe wants turning now to talk about this is rachel levinson waldman consul to the brennan centers of liberty and national security program rachel thank you so much for joining me. so what i'm talking about dismantling one or two monumental is it. this is a really important ruling this in a ruling that says that the justification that the government has been using that collecting. it's a huge quantity of information about americans' phone calls. he's no different from collecting small amounts of information on a very striking in person and doesn't eyes and or senate that with the ins and crazily trying to say that that is the best medicaid is protected under previous laws i think from a back of the seventy s or late sixties this judge ruled that that's not the case right. well i am of the crime and justice has relied on is that the nineteen seventy nine supreme court opinion called smith vs maryland and the case there was a single person has the limited information that has caused the gathering because there is a specific crime that had occurred in which he was a suspect an

for more i'm joined on our new york set here by michael price, counsel for the brennan center's policy for rights. we are giving this to transnational corporations to can't the government have it too? >> well i think this opinion is one in a debate that is going to the supreme court. but already we see that the decision is a bit of an outlier. if you consider the trend that we've been seeing towards nsa reform out of all three branches of government, it does seem to buck that trend a little bit. and as you mentioned there's the decision from judge leon just earlier this month finding that the program was likely unconstitutional, there's also legislation moving through contract that would limit the nsa's ability to collect data in bulk like this and a group of experts appointed by the president did an investigation of this program and determined, also just this month, that it hadn't actually made us any safer and should be stopped. >> so you think this will go to the u.s. supreme court, this very issue and you think it will happen in 2014? >> it is dull to say when it will actually happ

paul brennan is there for us. why can't n.a.t.o. wait for a signature until after the april elections as hamid karzai wants? >> basically because n.a.t.o. says it would be too late to do that. they need a degree of certainty. they are pressing on hamid karzai to sign the agreement because he has agreed to it in principal with talks with secretary of state john kerry. there are budgetary cycles, planning cycles. you can't switch on and off military trainers. they need a degree of certainty for this to happen. if we don't get the signature on that the zero option will have to be on the table and that is an option where the troops will have to be pulled out. it's an option at this point, nout one they are afraid of threatening, if hamid karzai does not sign the agreement. john kerry described it as needing the best transition possible. and in order to do that they need months of transitioning. it's not good enough to leave it until april. >> in ukraine, the government demonstrations in kiev have been addressed at the summit in brussels
