[laughter] and i always like to tell this story about my very first book event which took place when i was living in baltimore. it was just after i published a book called the naked consumer. [laughter] exactly. it's a book that nobody bought. well, one guy read it and review the book and he did it because he was the target of the book. the book was by the way about how corporations spy on individual consumers. so i did get a call when i was living in baltimore to go to lancaster pennsylvania to do a talk, not to do a talk with actually signing. i since learned th

we are going to dhaka at foreign policy. first thing we are going to talk about is the troops in afghanistan and the withdrawal of troops, what is your position on that? >> let's just talk about history for a moment. how we got there. and they would talk to each other and talk to me and talk to the moderator. it would be a full discussion. he said then it would be open. you said you can do that kind of thing and that kind of format. what did you mean when you said a little more of a whatever. okay, now enough of that. let's go to about libya and do the same thing. by subject matter and make sure a variety of a stance the context and things about it cannot be restricted to a particular time to talk about libya and other words you might say five minutes, we've got it but it may take 12th it's hard work for a moderator. >> host: they don't like each other, they've gone from a campaign and a discredited policy and other areas, so when you ask them to engage as you did with obama and mccain use of that mccain wouldn't talk to the

the neighbor calls the police and says i dhaka know if these guys are trying to break in that meeting are you ought to go check it out but the police come and henry louis is in his house, the police officers as i am checking this out says show me some idea. he shows his ied and the police officer still seems to be somewhat skeptical. one thing leads to another. they have words, the professor is quite upset and thinks that racial discrimination has something to do with the police officer. >> host: was the arrogance and insensitivity? >> guest: mabey. let's suppose henry louis gates was short tempered and suppose he wasn't being deferred until towards the officer but even suppose he was being arrogant with respect to a police officer or a crime i don't think so. i hope not and i would also hope the police officers, well trained police officers would be trained to deal with the citizenry and not arrest people simply because the citizen is for the sake of argument being arrogant. in any event, the officer of arrests henry louis gates even though the professor had shown that this was his h

is obviously interesting as well because indian prime minister manmohan singh was actually visiting dhaka today. released his statement about condemning these attacks and saying that india must stand united against these attacks from bangladesh today actually in an e-mail to the i.a.e.a. the group called on india to repeal the death sentence of a man that was actually convicted of bombing the indian parliament back in two thousand and one obviously all of this is following very close to the anniversary of nine eleven and to shed some more light on all of this is i have a guest with me siddharth rahman i he is a contributor and consultant to world analysis start now thanks so much for joining me so i want to first ask you what else can you tell me about this group. have they claimed responsibility for any of india's recent terror attacks were not in the movie some decent ones have been blamed on the indian with i.b.m. and preceding the attack in mumbai you needn't think it was have been in the last goodbye go or the initial investigations into the mumbai attacks there will suspicions of. p

so to say that at some moments it was extremely dhaka year is kind of an understatement, but i think that anybody there's some men in this room who stood that brought with me and refused to give it up and once we still american blood on it they will tell you that the u.s. air force, god bless them, they came through on time and on target. yes, sir. as the mikey mengin your experience. do you foresee a time when you will write another book either in your town active duty or retired? >> yes, sir, i do. hopefully if we can make this book successfully enough there was a follow-on operation that we were expected to conduct right after the operation and was called operation eagle summit. today we were short of security forces that we were unable to hold a lot of the ground and villages that we have cleared. so after we have cleared them and withdrawn taliban moved back in the, and again, the guys from the first battalion were called to go in and clean out those taliban coming in health they did it was completely different from what was done the first time. so i hope that opportunity does a

we will continue to prioritize that within our budgetary dhaka lines. securing the borders again, we have achieved a significant progress in securing our border, and we will continue to emphasize that enforcing the immigration law conveying the innovation as well building our cyber capacity is essential, developing cybersecurity for the nation and building a nation's resilience as well to face of risks and hazards. we will continue to prioritize these. we will also continue to prioritize the integration of the department and the management of the department. there are some on this committee i am proud to say have never suggested that somehow the management is separate and apart from the line of the programmatic functions. we are one department. the entire department is operational and we will continue to prioritize our ability to execute the missions to run our souls and account for the resources that were given. >> general dodaro i would like to hear your view on this as well. this gao report is based on observations over the past several years at dhs,

thirty three year old rule erupted to discuss the situation in yemen and are joined from madrid by dhaka by rami kaila a senior fellow in the middle eastern studies of the international and strategic relations thank you for joining us today the violence rages on in yemen and yet all the focus at the united nations is on libya and syria why is that yemeni situation going on most are noticed. well i think that when it comes to the truth of the ongoing evolution xin the reason we've seen in the recent past some countries that are the first and countries of course but also some arabic countries wanted to build on what they called the success of the military operations in libya and in this case i would say that they had to try to find the kind of weakest elements of the regional scene on which they could try to build or to come with some further pressure as and in this case i mean obviously we have a very very violent situation in yemen we could also talk about but i mean for example which is also submitted to sirte such a configuration or such a situation but in the same time both countries

doing it and don't report the neighbor, you are guilty as he of the underground railroad and which dhaka our greatest president, abraham lincoln that he needs harriet beecher stowe and he was at least 6-foot four, harriet beecher stowe was barely 5 feet tall. lincoln looked down at her you are a little lady that started a big block and in a way that is true. zachary taylor might have pulled off had more union states come in the light abolish with more states, more legislature, and history might have been a lot different. >> along with kennedy, mckinley, truly, tayler, all ranked above coolidge. one other gentleman is here, u.s. grant. why? >> well, let's talk about him, larger than abraham lincoln had. a historian's didn't like him. to elections after the civil war he went against them, on the other hand, let us have peace but the cause of the war of slavery where everybody argues against slavery no questions the southerners said it was slavery dillinger extent, the north knew it was slavery even the young of mr. lincoln knew the slave labor and ellinwood to drive down the price you name

to figure out if there could potentially be more explosives there the prime minister is actually in dhaka bangladesh right now he just released a statement and said that india will not succumb to these terrorist attacks and joining me to talk a little bit more about this is a commodore with a bus card he's currently the senior fellow at the national maritime foundation and he's retired from the indian navy after thirty seven years of service i think so much for joining me so i want first of all to ask you you know who obviously you know we don't know who exactly is held responsible for this so far but what are your theories who do you think could potentially be held responsible for today's attacks when i place this in context and say that to believe the attack in daily is the continuation of a proxy war that is being waged against india since may nine hundred ninety that is when better resume as we noid to be crosses the media and you'll find that there is a certain index of intensity the most remembered back of course was in november two thousand and eight when mumbai was attacked delhi

are going to have a war in the next 100 years with mexico, so there was a whole lot of things in the dhaka were very fascinating. so i decided i'm going to read the second book which is a little more down to earth. the other thing is as congressman, everybody that writes a book sends one to the office and says you all to read this book and so we get all kind of books many of which i send out to my office in seattle. but i also get people who recommend books to me and say you should read this book, friends and so forth, and one of the books was sent to me by a long time secretary and it's about china the man who left china. this is a

there was contention between an organization called the international labor defense which was dhaka legal wing of the communist party and the naacp and as it was called the one the right to defend the scottsboro boys. they got their approval. they also hired a very competent criminal lawyer, sam leibovitz from new york who played a critical role in leading the groundwork for the case as its one did its way to the supreme court, the first one in 1932. >> professor miller, how did it said to have a court case in alabama tried by a communist funded jewish white lawyer? >> not well in alabama. not well in alabama and all of these facts played a central role i believe in the way the case was perceived and the way the case was tried in alabama. liebowitz himself had to have at 1.8 guard escort him between when he was off-duty during the trials. >> so we go through the second series of trials and what happens in the scots brogue boies? >> the second series, this was the dictator trials of 1933. >> why did they move it from scottsboro? >> i think that was more a question of simply the most availa

there will have to be a political cultural solution and all of this comes into the dhaka eradicatingbacco one doesn't require a scientific solution one requires the political solution. it's completely different but requires another kind of strategic element so every piece of our society and us as human beings is somehow engaged in this and everyone can contribute >> this seems to be increasing research going on. there's a popular issue right now and can you comment on your outlook or the preventive efforts being made and any optimism? >> guest >> i have several comments. it deals with prevention so let there be no mistake that in fact one of the most historical the in fact one of the most seminal moments in the war on cancer is when this idea fighting the war on the battle began to fade away and people began to research the focus on prevention that continues today. i'm not going to talk about them at great length. i'm going to make two comments. one is that the remains shocking to me the most preventable question is still at large. here we are fighting the complicated battle on the h

often kids would dhaka committee would be diagnosed within and they would apply a week or two weeks, sometimes they would live longer and by soon dr.. farber began particularly interested in this command one of the reasons was that leukemia, unlike many other forms of cancer, could be counted. and as a talk about in this book, science begins measurement. whenever you can measure something you can begin to perform a scientific activity on it. and this is a time for the cat scan and mri, so it was very hard to count the site of a tumor because was buried inside. but leukemia because it is a tumor of the blood could be counted because you could draw a drop of blood or perform a biopsy and in the bone marrow or in the blood, you could see the death or the life of the looking excels and thereby you could say this worked or didn't work. it was an objective mechanism by which one could have a conversation about the, you know, the increase or decrease of the third leukemia cells and farber became very interested in this. now, she soon figured out of the things i would be interesting is to fi

and they rode off in a the wintertime and back where ethan allen was hard at work writing the most dhaka that i've ever seen 500 some pages cold reason the only oracle of man. he needed an editor. he never had one. he apparently dictated all of it. they didn't have a spell check so he must have had a clerk probably a young college graduate who needed some money but he took the writings that he started back in salzburg connecticut with arthur young, the young doctor and then he got that manuscript from the widow of arthur young that died in the field hospital trying to help the troops and the revolution and he sat writing this attack on puritanism in the house he was renting next door to the puritan church. if you go to bennington you will find the house. they tore it down and put the monument to the more fitful historian in its place. but he finished and sold all the land he could. he dissolved the company that the family used all through the period before the war. he held on to 1500 acres in the valley and that is where his homestead has been found and reconstructed. wonderful land on t

cyber challenge which is a national competition thousands of kids engaged dhaka not the kind of negative pressure but we are way behind and we need to ratchet that up at a very fast rate. >> one thing to think about the was that we can split up different categories. the chinese are the espionage and because the u.s. doesn't do economic espionage the russians are the best the financial crime and have an advantage because the u.s. doesn't permit or engage in financial crime. but the u.s. has both the traditional collection and we do that against them so when we talk about things like aggressive responses you might not want to set that precedent because some people might say what are you talking about? you are tromping all over the networks and are just as guilty as im and that isn't true but on everybody's playing this game and every solution has to take into account. >> you mentioned earlier that in addition to just basic protective measures the need to be policy measures such as deterrents to create a bunch of different lawyers from cyber defense. what is your assessment of how far along

[applause] hello and welcome to the national press club and to another edition of dhaka kalb report i am martin kalb and the program tonight entering 9/11, the day and the decade. the pull from the pew research center says that 97% of the american people, 97% can tell you where they were and what they were doing to with a first of the september 11 terrorist attack on the united states. people my age that a certain vintage can even remember december 7th, 1941 the day that the japanese attacked pearl harbor the assassination of president john f. kennedy is another one of those clear critical moments in american history. it is often said that 9/11 changed everything. maybe that is a bit of an exaggeration but it changed a lot. it was a defining moment in american history. most of you learn about 9/11 from television, radio and perhaps the telephone call of a parent or a friend alerting you'd the fact something dreadful has just happened in new york turn on your tv set it when you did you probably saw an anchor in part in some of the information and telling you what's been happening to re

that tomorrow we can have educated, reasonably educated population and infrastructure and so on pos dhaka what happens if we got the sacrifice, because that is sort of your warning in the book is because we on this wrong path and because they're seems to be this short-term consumption attitude what happens if we don't fix this? >> guest: the main problem of the consumption as we know what the public, the government land individual level in this country and across europe has been financed by debt. and the concerns with that is it is unsustainable if the debt had been used to finance investment for example we probably wouldn't be sitting here because there would be a lot of productive investments you might see come out of that but we have a very different situation so what could happen? in many ways europe as a harbinger of the sort of things that could happen. you end up with riots, unsustainable budgets and often yield to the elite to be allowed to be in california and concerns around infrastructure and fundamentally around their budget deficits they have furloughs, those types of things

now i sure for the 53% welfare spending you saw what a bang for the dhaka they got in the scenes on your tv screens this last week. when they spend that within the living memory of this city in flames on the tv screens every night governed one-fifth of the earth's surface and a quarter of its population. then inverted its priorities and spend all that money on the nanny state charges at home and we got spectacular results you can see if he made the mistake of booking a trip to london in the next six weeks. good luck with that. that is the same trajectory every great power embarks upon the retreat because you can have the is entitlements at home or the global reach a broad but not both. and you can see it already in our little pseudo war in libya. i don't know how many of you remember the lydia war. it was in the papers about 48 hours. it's still going on out there and apparently and it fell off the radar screen. it's in the guinness book of records for the fastest proxmire said there is that to be said. the president spent the first month of the war telling the american people you d

exports but it's kind of down with a bit of a dhaka court mislike we ought not to be mercenary about this because we are the united states of america. is that a problem or is that a good thing? i am not sure. i don't think it's a problem. the presidents of the united states has been unabashedly championed. i'm going to say u.s. corporations were compete against foreign corporations. it's when they compete against other corporations that they don't get engaged, but they just want the playing field to be as level was possible, and they want the rule to be respected on our side and i think that is what we are asking the federal government to do is to be pro-active in making sure the rules are there that are enforced and we are not going to count on our corporations of the time to be the ones to say they are breaking the rules here. we want to see whether the rules are being broken and we should step up and call attention to it, but yes we want a pro american trade policy and that is what this is saying. i don't think it is inconsistent with the fact that the united states is the best ex

but there is also i think one can work with and we've done work with our national students about dhaka affordable organization that they are willing to do work and speak at universities but there is more to be done in that area and prison is another area we need to i think do more to look at what messages can be given between prisoners and also letters coming to prison. >> i think one of the interesting phenomena that started the foundation there has been some movement among british muslims but everywhere to try to counter extremism how important do you think that is? >> i think it's very important. i think it is vital that messages about countering extremism, countering the ideology come from within the community and not just from government. >> have you seen that that has set in the impact? >> i think it is heading in pact but it is -- i think that there is much we can do around it. it isn't just about countering the archaeology. it's about what i mentioned earlier, the community engagement and community participation as an important part of this, to. >> can you give a brief summary

don't be among the stupid dhaka stay informed. secondly stay involved.what you do is harder. this movement doesn't matter. yes it does. the reason they want to call you names and call me names, yeah i just called a few names too, imagine that is because they want to intimidate us and to not letting our voices be heard and the last time i checked according to the founding fathers, when they talk about both unable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness if you keep reading that same document it went on to say that when the form of government becomes constructive of those ideas, it is the right of the people also abolish it. we have some abolishing to do.
