only had a little piece of it now the cia director richard helms had continued the cia mafia plots under j.f.k. without telling j.f.k. or his own cia director helms that continued the plotting under l.b.j. when he became cia director without telling the o.b.j. so by nine hundred seventy two richard helms was nixon's cia director nixon knew some of this stuff because he had started the whole ball rolling and so you had the cia director and nixon didn't want to step to come out they had a little slice of that law almost one hundred page dossier they needed the rest of it so that is why the cia director's protege e howard hunt anyhow were hans assistant from one thousand nine hundred sixty who would worked on the cia mafia plots for our barker and other cia and castro veterans that's why because. people wonder why all these any castro cubans and what does what do they come up from miami well that's why because you could find that dossier they would recognize the names they knew all the key names some of them had participated in the plot so if you just had non cuban non cuban exile non-state

so he spoke bluntly openly about how the cia waterboard starved tortured people but when someone like ali soufan tries to write a book criticizing torture practices his information gets redacted but not rodriguez's so playing favorites i think of the cia is great it's a very clear if you're an insider willing to say something negative about them or any other government sector you're probably not going to get too far but we the people should have the right to know what they're doing behind the curtains on behalf of us and again so many of these government or defense programs that have been declared national security secrets we can still go to google type the words into the search bar and bam you've got all the details at your fingertips it's classic u.s. government hypocrisy at its best here like when obama openly speaks about how he gets the big bad guys of these drone strikes but that if you try to inquire and get more details in court forget about they're going to they're going to label it as classified and as a state secret as long as they can and when whistleblowers put their safe

like they're coming at this investigation completely cold but we thought we put together a little cia censorship best up to help them with their investigation see back in september of two thousand and ten we first met retired lieutenant colonel anthony shaffer whose book operation dark heart was about to be burned to keep any classified information from reaching the eyes of the public about what a failure the war in afghanistan was. and the focus of the book is the tipping point where we want from what are you losing based on the fact we recognize that point in time the taliban were rolling back and we need to do something to stabilize their efforts in pakistan. doesn't sound too crazy right now initially tony's book actually got the greenlight then later the cia removed from mission for the book to be published at the last minute citing over two hundred parts of the book were revealed as classified information and then they would all fahrenheit four fifty one and burn it ten thousand copies of the book but tony situation isn't unique we've also spoken to peter van verite whose book f

of information from the books of former government employees who are trying to blow the whistle the cia is finally facing an internal investigation they were skeptical in tonight's all time and unhappy hour one of the miss usa contestants tried to argue the prosecutor has a very powerful role model for women and he won't believe what one gets mad did with his dad kept. download the official ante up location on the phone the i pod touch from the. one child's life on the go. video on demand all t's mine gold coast's and feeds now in the palm of your. question on the. wealthy british sign on the sign. that's not on the telephone. market why not come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with max cons or for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into cars a report on our. mission of free cretaceous free in-store charges free arrangement free. three stooges free. download free broadcast quality video for your media projects and free media don carty dot com. it's easy to. all right guys it's time for tonight's tool time award and tonight we're givi

hill and details on the cia's interrogation tactics as if the book also points out how intelligence overlooked some key factors which could have helped to maybe prevent the nine eleven attacks the asians who knew that these kind operatives in southeast asia flew to america or they have visas to come to the united states and somebody decided let's not chosen from that. now the cases of van buren kiriakou ishmael and schaefer all have something and call that they all criticize government practices in some form or another so keeping that in mind let's remind you of the recent book published by jose rodriguez called hard measures how aggressive cia actions after nine eleven saved american lives this member by the former director of the national clandestine service spoke openly about cia torture practices and the book even earned him a spot on sixty minutes where he got to brag about all the dietary manipulation was part of the star thinks so sleep deprivation dietary manipulation i mean this is orwellian stuff the united states doesn't do that. well we do so he spoke bluntly openly abou

doesn't sound too crazy right now initially tony's book actually got the greenlight then later the cia removed from mission for the book to be published at the last minute citing over two hundred parts of the book were revealed as classified information oh and then they would all fahrenheit four fifty one and byrd ten thousand copies of the book but tony situation isn't unique we've also spoken to peter van varick whose book face the chopping block after he spoke ill of reconstruction efforts in iraq and his book was actually released but it was to say that he definitely had to deal with post publishing state censorship the state department took away a security clearance confiscated his diplomatic passport and eventually moved to fire him and how about ishmael jones the agency officer turned author also found himself in trouble in the cia took him to federal court over breaking his secrecy agreement for publishing his book the human factor but he claims he didn't share any classified information he was simply punished for failing to follow proper protocol as he calls it. this is a pecu

the cia's defense smaller.at handful of people really and how they are able to cover the waterfront, it's really tough and moreover if i could spend your question, i am concerned not only about the militarization of intelligence, but the militarization of policy. when we look at the world and we think in military terms, and part of that is the success of our military. they are very adaptable. they are aggressive and they have done some terrific work. they want a leadership role. where i believe other parts of the u.s. government are less aggressive. in fact more reluctant, particularly the leadership over some of these expeditionary, high-risk environments. we do really good job of projecting military power, covert action power driven by this intelligence. the number three guy in al qaeda in south asia and the afghan and pakistan theater, the last decade, his life expectancy has been about six months. it's a job nobody wants. so if you are the number three guy, the chief operating officer if you will, the guy t

the cia's mission is to gather information, not to make headlines. i'm lauren for "teen kids news." >> at 15, most of us are just counting down the days until we can get our driver's license. but grant reports on a teen who, at 15, became one of the youngest professional racecar drivers ever. >> growing up in stockdale, ohio, zach veach always dreamed of racing cars. >> well, i started driving go-karts -- which, they're, you know, the starting series if you want to be an open-wheel driver. and the first class you start off in runs about 50 miles an hour, and it's just little yamaha engines. but i kept moving up in the go-karting series with the faster go-karts and faster go-karts. and i was gonna be racing in the atlantic championship series, which is an open-wheel car that went 180 miles per hour. but 10 days before my first race, the series was canceled due to the economy. >> but faster than you can say "pit stop," misfortune turned into good fortune. >> three days after my worst day in my life, my dad got a call from michael andretti asking if i'd

so he calls the cia in. mike hayden, who was still the cia director at the time, and his deputy. and he wants to know what happened. and they run through this program for him. and they explain to him that they don't always know who exactly it is they're targeting. they don't always have precise i.d. they call them signature strikes. he's wrapping his mind around this for the first time. and it concerns him. on the other hand, he accepts it, and it's an important inflection point in his presidency. >> talk about what your book also reveals about the tension within the administration about a largely secret war of targeted killings. because the shorthand for this that some have observed inside the administration, the book's title is "kill or capture." the decision was kill rather than capture. he wanted to shut down guantanamo bay. it hasn't been shut down. they were not realistic about what it would take to get that done. so again the shorthand is kill them, don't capture them because we don't have a place to detain them. >> that's exactly right. these are the unintended consequenc

build their own drones from a lack of regulation and foresight to a lack of intelligence about who the cia is actually killing supporters of u.s. drone warfare still have a lot of explaining to do the oversight is simply been in adequate thus far and has been since the program launched in pakistan under the bush administration back then officials admitted this anonymously saying quote the committee's didn't do any oversight on drone strikes to speak up it would be informed when a strike was carried out fast forward to today and drone strikes are happening much more frequently and even though the lack of oversight has many concerned about the program high ranking politicians and members of the obama administration have no problem defending it. i want to make sure that people understand actually drones have not caused a huge number of civilian casualties. for the most part they have been very precise precision strikes against al qaeda and their affiliates and we are very careful in terms of how it's been applied there or instances where the government has the key was already. the responsibil

all right now despite this cheerleading at least some in congress want to know more about what the cia is doing the l a times reported today that sen dianne feinstein chairman chairwoman of the senate intelligence committee has worked to allow congress to keep closer tabs on our drone war the article details how staffers from the house and senate intelligence committees go to cia headquarters once a month to review the latest strikes usually taking place in pakistan and yemen not only do they get to see the strikes clearly but they're also privy to intelligence used to justify them telephone intercepts and cia assessment forms well because this information is highly classified these congressional aides are given top level security clearances the access material only president obama his aides and a number of high ranking cia officials get to see so does this seem a little odd to anyone else they live to l.a. times raise questions about the qualifications of these staffers while some have come from defense and intelligence fields others are an experience like saxby chambliss is intellige

we had the former director of the cia, the former head of the counter-terrorism center at the cia whenone strikes began, and dennis blair, the former director of national intelligence for the u.s. -- all three of these very central characters have all made strong noises the last few weeks saying there were concerned about the policy, worried it was getting out of control, worried it is not achieving what it is supposed to be doing. and may actually be making matters worse. "washington post" just last week had a powerful article showing drone strikes in yemen are actually leading to an increase in support of al qaeda. unfortunately, everybody at the white house and cia seems to be singing from the same sheet. there is no point of criticism we are aware -- the concern is, this is pushing america into a position that will make its efforts to fight terrorism worse rather than better. >> chris woods, can you talk more about the redefinition of civilians outlined in "the new york times calls >> peace, president obama increasing counting the civilian casualties, in effect, accounting all mili

you have set a little bit about the fbi and cia and their improved relationship. what would you say about the current state of the inter- agency process? >> out in the field, those differences disappear. it is back in washington where you have much more butting of heads or issues relating to agencies. we used to butt heads with the a -- dea. now it is no longer a priority, we do not but heads with them. the biggest thing has been with the international intelligence agencies, national security agency. the willingness to sit down and exchange of information, understanding that we collect and different authorities. the cia and nsa collected overseas under looser authorities because they're not affecting united states citizens. we have the responsibility of doing the intelligence gathering in the united states, understanding is american citizens we are attempting to protect. we have to do it under the constitution and applicable statutes. the sharing of that information and working together has gone light years since september 11. having been through a number of battl

howard hunt, who retired from the cia. nixon and his aides believed that hunt could be relied on, but he needed other people to help him. where did he get them? hunt turned to cubans, who had been trained by the cia to commit acts of sabotage against castro. many of these same people were involved in the 1972 break-in, that had been involved in the 1971. after the watergate burglars were arrested, the leading idea among nixon's men was to quash the fbi investigation, claiming that watergate was a cia operation, having to do with the bay of pigs. nixon was later convicted if the court of public opinion by the disclosure of a june 23rd, 1972 tape in which he ordered his chief of staff, haldeman, to order the cia to carry out this plan. cia director helms and his deputy were kind of puzzled and confident that watergate had nothing to do with the bay of pigs and resisted these overturs. there's an important sense, however, in which watergate did relate to the bay of pigs and the cold war in general, which is one of my big them

the investigation of the cia review board is politically driven.s don't want books like his because they make the case that waterboarding got valuable intelligence and saving lives. timing may be everything here. there is upcoming report investigates whether waterboarding of high value detainees including khalid sheikh mohammed was worth it? >> they have been working for years on a review that is supposed to be released this summer and their conclusions are very different from mine. and maybe the truth hurts. maybe they can't take the truth. >> we could not get more specifics on the congressional report or its possible release as i mentioned the amount of money that the united states owes to china runs into 13 figures australia's entire economy. a group in the u.s. claims it may have found a way to put america back on even footing with the communist nation. fox reports on the possibility that china actually does not owe money to the united states.

[ applause ] wesley passed away last week at the age of 85 and today we honor his ground breaking legacy. and while your class progressed from the first honor of induction day up to this moment, the world has undergone its own transformation. naval academy graduates have had a lot to do with that transformation. retired admiral mike mullin, class of '68, guided our military to fight with the right strategy in two wars and to be ready for future challenges. retired admiral eric olson, class of '73, lead special operations command in its efforts to go after al qaeda. general john allen, clat of '76, is leading the campaign in afghanista

he was recruited. -- cia agent from 1959. recruited the cia's top pick to kill castro over the years. he is in the film as well. anyways, both were working for the cia, and jose fired a cannon at a hotel in 1962 to prove that there were can -- and there were russians in the hotel. they had complained about the firing. he then formed an organization called brothers to the rescue which was made to save the lives of rafters of cubans after the soviets disappeared. he would review their positions to nearby ships. but when the u.s. and cuba signed a migration accord, he lost his mission because there were no more rafters. they were being picked up by the coast guard and being brought to cuba. so he had a new mission to fly over cuba. the cubans got word that he would drop a weapon on them and they notified the u.s. of future overflights would be the clearest of consequences, meaning they would be shot down. he was told by the u.s. government that future flights would be very dangerous. in fact, the u.s. government sent a note to t

over the next couple years it's scaled down its loan portfolio by about fifty billion dollars this cia oh poor fellow you would imagine would then shrink to it triple so why would j.p. morgan be diverting cash into hedging if it was reducing its loan portfolio because it's profitable that's the thing i mean they saw the profits that were coming out of that unit and they see the profits from making loans following the profits from advising companies and corporations falling and they see the cia profits rising where would you put your money right i mean that's what they saw but of course they may not have taken into account the fact that those profits probably couldn't rise forever and they put probably too much faith in the cia oh to make that kind of revenue for them speaking of putting faith in the cia oh i know that jamie dimon may have taken responsibility for this error before lawmakers but former executives have come out to bloomberg and said that jamie dimon gave the cia kind of a free pass and didn't apply the same scrutiny. that when it came to rest management that he did to sa

that is where we first began developing drones, the cia. many people think i'm part of the cia. i'm not. that is where we developed drones. very interesting, in 1960 they could go mocks three. this is astounding that the still holds the record for speed if you believe that it still holds the record for speed the government tells you it holds the record for speed. 2,300 miles-per-hour, drones in 1962 out in the nevada desert. that is some very serious advanced technology. people often ask me what i think is going on now, what kind of drones' they're coming up with,i can only imagine. i know that to be on the panel with these two interesting authors, you know, all of our ideas kind of meat and merge in this idea of secrets, surveillance. for me to write about really the military and has been nuys, elements of surveillance, it's fascinating that the private sector and the military sector, people see now how they merge with a look at drone stay. of course this goes back, you know, to the 1950's when it all began out there in area 51. i love answering questions on this. >> i wanted t

itself we report is also saying that the cia officers are. thought to help the rebels with the recruiting and providing them with the information on the movements strategic information on the movements of the governmental forces of the syrian government forces and the latest reports that these supplies include have we. and the cia offices themselves sadia there in the southern part of turkey to ensure no weapons go to al qaida while it's quite unclear exactly how they intend to do so and this news has made reports about not only rising muglia of arms and ammunitions into syria but also about the reports about dramatic escalation of the violence here in the country in the last two days we've been hearing about how the clashes in baba amr neighborhood in holmes one syria's largest city and the key opposition stronghold and it's also been hearing that it's been moving towards. to the north of the country to towards the turkish border so with bloodshed continuing with the reports like this continue to emerge about. arms been smuggled. so we expec

speaking of initiative, qualities by the way we prize at the cia. b but -- we are hiring. there's been 150 applicants for every slot, though, so you never know. it did remind me, though, of a story of a young school boy who had to give a report on julius caesar. julius caesar was born and raised a little time ago the little boy told his classmates. he was a great general. he won some important battles. he gave a long speech. they killed him. i will try to avoid his fate today. now as the president noted, it is also great to be here today because i was unable to honor my commitment to speak at last year's graduation ceremony. in fact shortly after i'd actually accepted the invitation in june 2010 to be the commencement speaker in 2011, i went to a monthly meeting, routine meeting at the white house, and came out with a new job when president obama on short notice asked me to take the reins in afghanistan. and as the president noted, i still had some hope of honoring the commitment, but as the winter turned into the spring, it was very clear that the tempo there would not al

now earlier there were reports that cia offices that helping deceive into weapons to the syrian rebels from taking how does that fit in with this latest jet incident. well turkey is playing both sides trying to play both sides of the fence with regarding syria they've also been giving refuge to free syrian army guerrillas that are western backed that have a run across for protection over the turkish border and they want to go back into syria to conduct raids but again the the the western agenda i'm afraid to say this the western agenda on syria is already decided this might play out in the media and might play out in political. here's like it's touch and go but like we've seen in the process in iraq every movie of these things were drawn up on the border a long time ago and it's proof that the syrian national council said a representative to the builder group meeting in chantilly virginia only a few weeks ago pasmore combining she was there to deal with story about the destabilisation regime change in syria and the boat there is a share of syria this is something on the globalist playe

the cia is essentially functioning as another branch of military. they are one that has deniability i guess, they think. in terms of whether we explain or own up to their actions. i can see why somebody who wants the power to act in the nation's national security interests wants to flexibly to be able to act in were in the world in secret, deny they ever do, never explain it, and cover it up if necessary. i just don't think that's america. i can understand why somebody wants that power. so i think it's put pressure on all the weak points of where we are already drifting. thank you. >> up in the balcony. top balcony. >> good evening. >> don't be afraid of. [laughter] >> thank you so much for being here with us tonight. my question is after the war in vietnam there's a very clear period of reflection and questioning both on the part of the american public and american politicians as to what are the lessons we learned from this war. and my question is, do you think that a similar period of reflection and questioning will come about after, in the afterm

fact that those profits probably couldn't rise forever and they put probably too much faith in the cia oh to make that kind of revenue from speaking of putting faith in the cia oh i know that jamie diamond may have taken responsibility for this error before lawmakers but former executives have come out to bloomberg and said that jamie dimon gave this kind of a free pass and didn't apply the same scrutiny to them when it came to rest management that he did to say investment banking so do you think jamie diamond will really pay for that do you think he would ever stand to lose his job or to lose compensation going forward i mean is he really going to be ever brought to task for this one last i think it's probably dubious i would say the answer to that is no and you would also have to ask if he is gone from his job one of the positions that jamie dimon occupied was that he was not just you know the head of the most profitable bank on wall street but also a kind of moral authority j.p. morgan was the one bank that had not really screwed up big and so they didn't as we said before they didn

about that when they were going to be anticipating higher capital requirements they instructed the cia to reduce its portfolio or reduce some of its risk weighted assets instead of reducing the portfolio what they did was they added to it to offset those his existing positions which made it larger more complex and riskier how are we to look at this is this just an indication that management is stupid that they didn't exit some of these positions when they could have well i think it is a lapse in management i think anyone would say that and j.p. morgan should definitely admit it seemed like they were today i mean. they have to watch what's going on in those units and they admit they were not watching what's going on there and you can see how things get out of hand the fact that these two traders could go ahead and take these bets and then what looks like double down on these bets while they were supposed to reduce them while the c.e.o. thought they were reducing them while their their managers thought these risks were going down that's halls us that the oversight was not strong enough a

and what's in a word as the cia is said to be assisting with the transfer of weapons to the syrian rebels who take a look at what might be behind the media campaign accusing russia of bonds deals with president assad. twenty four hours a day seven days a week that this is our team julian assange has broken his silence over the first time since taking refuge in the ecuadorian embassy in london where he still awaits a decision on his request for political asylum in his interview the week elise editors said that even if his plea is unsuccessful his dramatic move has drawn the world's attention to what he describes as a conspiracy against him orchestrated by the us parties as sarah for the brings us more from london. escape a voice this is the words you're going to hear in the media at the moment relating to a soldier's decision what he said though is that this is not about avoiding the sexual assault allegations against him in sweden far from that is that he felt really this was never about sweden it was the fear of what would happen to him once he was in sweden and the involvement of the u.

in sweden yet how it doesn't terrorists cia operatives what i'm saying terrorists because they didn't even carry identity by then they were who did they were masked they landed in sweden as they actually go to blow against you for a very brief as i met tara just very quickly implying that jewel in the sand will not get a fair trial in sweden and in fact this will then lead him to being extradited to the u.s. just how likely is that going to happen just briefly or. very likely as i said based on the track record if you have seen that sweden including the rendition used in two thousand one i would say that you highly likely what he's doing is smart and unfortunately and ironically he's choices right now our government such as venezuela cuba you know ecuador and hopefully other countries come up on the table come on the table and make an offer and i'm happy to see that from places like china and russia suburbans founder president of the national security was a close coalition joining us live in washington thank you for your thoughts. well that to brings us to twenty six minutes past the

for the party or the country karl rove was prepared to resign in disgrace over his role in outing a cia agent to cover up is his and bush's lies about iraq all this kind of stuff the white house was making plans for his rip his resignation assuming that the democrats would push the issue but when rove decided to play hardball and call their bluff democrats wimped out and now they're reversing roles only instead of backing off. republicans are going in for the kill if republican house speaker john boehner schedules and holds a successful vote and house of representatives to hold eric cantor in the earth holder in contempt of congress it'll be the first time in the history of the republic that a cabinet officer has been so charge just like when republicans in congress went after bill clinton for lying about getting a little into the table with monica was the first time a president had been attacked for having extramarital sex in the history the republic is republicans are thought is and the democrats need to recognize that they held unemployed people hostage last year and scared and succe

the cia reports it is not providing weapons.ng fox news cia officers are in turkey near the border with syria trying to make sure weapons do not end up in the hands of al qaeda or other terror groups according to the "new york times" syria, qatar are buying these arms. rocket propelled grenades and antitank weapons. the white house is not commenting on the report it does say again today that the u.n. is not sending any aid to optician fighters. top story at the bottom of the hour. what are we giving them directly. >> shep, a source familiar with the situation on the ground tells fox that turkish authorities reached out to the cia for assistance and we provided money and technology including surveillance equipment to expand turkey's intelligence network inside syria, given the heavy fighting near the border, this amateur video is from homs province. by building a better intelligence network the u.s. is k. stir weapons supplied other nations in sink with our objectives. in briefing the white house not offering specifics. >> we pro

the first is they come to him through the cia.the cia is sort of an internal process, mainly in pakistan involving people in pakistan. that then gets funneled up to john brennan, his counter terrorism chief, who can bat things back at any point if he wants to. but ultimately if he's successful he'll bring it to the president. and on the department of defense side in somalia and yemen, al qaeda operatives there come through this nomination's process, which is an interagency process and people can essentially call out simple objections. well, what do you mean as the al qaeda facilitator? >> i know there's been a whole lot of controversy around this called the kill list in "the new york times." it was fascinating and a great read. jo becker, we are out of time but i appreciate you stopping by. great investigative work on your part. >> thank you for having me. >> thank you so much for stopping by. >>> up next, your three big money headlines. we are looking for silver linings in the new jobs number. and here's a new one, the rich get p
