in the democratic republic of congo, reports charge that all parties including the army, have participated in this lucrative trade. multiple reports describe armed men coming across the borders from sudan r or from somalia to kill elephants and smuggle out the ivory and the scope of lethality is only increasing as armed groups expand their criminal networks and profit from the lucrative trade in conflict minerals and ill lisle timber. it's all part of the network. i learned that a long time ago when i was a prosecutor. don't take my word for it. just look at the facts. according to the african wildlife fund, poachers have claimed more than 900 rhinos across africa these last three years. between 2007 and 2011, rhino poaching increased by 3,000% in south africa alone. black market prices for these commodities are surging. with rhino horn at times more valuable per ounce than gold. and if that's not troubling enough, consider that more than 23 metric tons of illegal ivory were seized last year. that's nearly 2,500 elephants. the net effect of these depp rr is more insecurity, more violence a

the building of the berlin wall ensured that the german democratic republic would only last so long as the wall remained. the construction was a sign of defeat. once built, it was doomed sooner or later to come down. it did not seem so at the time. the berlin wall was built in a period of soaring tension between the u.s. and the ussr. it was the climax of nearly three years of crisis precipitated in the november 1958 when khrushchev threatened to sign a separate peace treat ae to put an end to the treaty. in may 1960, he walked out of the paris summit and later that year conducted a stormy appearance at the united nations. which produced the famous shoe pounding episode. a peace treaty was raised again and soviet/american tensions increased even as khrushchev prepared to deal with john fitzgerald kennedy. and to those events that we return. i'll start by introducing our panelists at once. we'll have a steady flow from o one presentation to another. my immediate right is mr. lou mehrer, retired cia officer who served in senior assignments in washington and abroad. most recently featured

>> if the american republic, if our democratic republic is going to survive well into its third century, we need to find more effective ways of reconciling this diversity, and that's the function that i see of the american lawyer. if that function is successfully achieved, i think we can anticipate a third or a fourth great century of american democracy and preservation of our liberties. if, however, that function is not followed through, then as alexis de toteville said- the great student of democracy in america- the likelihood is this country will either be moved to anarchy or authoritarian rule. so the short answer to your question is, yes, i think that lawyers play an indispensable role with this model of legal practice toward the harmonizing and reconciling of diversity in this country, and the continued prosperity of the american experiment. >> grisham, right down the line. >> what we're seeing here is he's a lawyer, but i think what he's speaking about is a problem in terms of the ethical dimension and the social dimension that this particular country's facing, and that is divers

january 17th 2002, after several months of low level seismic activity mount nyiragongo in the democratic republicongo finally erupted with unbelievable ferocity. a huge fissure measuring eight miles across opened up on the south side of the 11,400 foot mountain. a great river of lava 1800 feet wide and six feet deep, erupted from the fissure and swept relentlessly towards the city of goma which lay twelve miles to the south. having heeded the warning signs earlier most of the population had already left, many of them heading for safety in neighboring rwanda. for some, clutching a few meager belongings, this involved a long and hazardous trek across the still smouldering ash and lava. nevertheless 45 people died, either from carbon dioxide poisoning or through being crushed by falling buildings. as the lava swept through the city, it set fire to countless homes and other buildings, adding to the chaos by hurling blazing oil drums high into the air. by the time the danger had passed, 4500 buildings had been destroyed and 120,000 people left homeless. the eruption of mount nyiagongo is believed to h

issue of faith that the church deals with, but then there are the issues as a citizen in a democratic republics issue has been shaped in such a way where religion is being used to define something that should be done by the state. this is very troubling to me. the founding fathers were very care to feel say that we would have separation of church and state. i think this amendment infringes upon that. >> so there are many advocates for same-sex marriage. a group called protect all families, they oppose amendment one and say this really is a civil rights issue. a lot of people will know it was only a little over 40 years ago that north carolina accepted interracial marriage. it's rally proving that this amendment essentially making discrimination legal or that would be the opposition's argument to this. how do african-american church leaders reconcile that fact against history? >> well, that's a difficult question to fully answer. i come down on the side of it really being a justice issue. we should not be putting discrimination into our laws against any particular group regardless of how we fee

and today president obama met with democratic and republic lawmakers to tackle the issue once again. but even before that meeting began, we saw signs it's not going to go smoothly. >> one of the ways that we can sustain momentum is for congress to take some actions right now, even though it's election season. even though there is gridlock and partisanship, take some actions right now that would really make a difference. >> it's time for us to deal with the big issues that are effecting our country and our society. we have spent enough time playing small ball enshep again, those comments all came before the meeting. but the reports we got afterward were not any more encouraging. ed henry on fox top story live at the white house tonight. it seems clear we're headed for the same calamity that we headed for last time. many are suggesting now, ed, that that might be the strategy. is that true? >> well, it's interesting because republics are trying to get spending cuts out of the president. and the threat of default may be a strategy to get that going here. the president started with diplo
