because the comments that the president of iran, rouhani, told our fareed zakaria, the foreign minister, they will only play into the hands of those in congress right now who want to pass new sanctions against iran even during this interim period. the wlous i'm sure is sensitive to that. >> reporter: well, certainly. the white house has made the argument that if congress passes these new tougher sanctions on iran it's going to scuttle the deal. i want to read what the white house said in response to those comments from the foreign minister, morn minister mohamed javad zarif. they are not surprised doing just that. so both sides are needing to convince their own audiences to let this deal go forward, wolf. >> athena, thanks so much. thinking of ashleigh banfield in new york following another story we're watching right now. wlast going on? >> we've been following the breaking news of the arrest of justin bieber, a 19-year-old sensation. and now he's appearing via video uplink for a bond hearing in front of a judge in miami circuit court. let's listen in. >> mr. prez, okay. state. >> judge

and then you have iran's president today explaining to cnn's fareed zakaria what the chants of "death to america" really mean. >> what they mean to say relates to the aggressive policies of the u.s. and intervention and meddling boy the u.s. we don't want those to continue. >> well, i would just suggest that you that if an american leader was wandering around chanting death to iran, it would be hard to explain we meant that it symbolic. and they have had a long tradition now of over 30 years of behaving as though they mean it. >> you're right, newt, they have a long tradition of saying things exactly like that. but what matters here is that for the first time in decades we have an agreement in place that has halted iran's nuclear weapons program. it's a temporary agreement that dpi gives us space to negotiate a broader deal. this is real progress that the american government under president obama has been able to accomplish. this would china and russia are enforcing a deal with iran to make sure that they are not producing weapons grade uranium, are dismantling some of their capabilit

reporter: yet rouhani raised more questions with his own words uttered in an interview with cnn's fareed zakaria declaring he's not willing to destroy any of the centrifuge machines used to enrich uranium and could eventually help iran obtain nuclear weapons. when zakaria asked so there would be no destruction of centrifuges, rouhani insisted not under any circumstances, not under any circumstances. zakaria said today the comments are a trainwreck because it suggests the two sides are miles apart, though at the white house spokesman jay carney again shrug it had off as rouhani spouting off for domestic consumption. >> we expected the iranian government to spin the commitments they made under the joint plan of action for their domestic political purposes. >> reporter: except rouhani recently used the global audience of twitter to charge the west had surrendered and his latest comments were made to cnn. >> cnn is broadcast outside of iran, right? you can confirm? >> yeah, i've seen it here. >> it's not just domestic political consumption if they are talking to a broader audience. >> ed, what i can

fareed zakaria is with us now from the world economic forrum in switzerland. you just heard him say the white house mischaracterized the terms of the deal. but you spoke exclusively to iran's president hasan rouhani. how does he explain iran's position? what did they actually agree to? >> reporter: actually, i think he went even further with me. it's the first time the iranian government, certainly the president of iran, has said not just in the interim deal, in any final deal there will be no destruction of centrifuges. iran's vision is very clear. you can have as much monitoring as you want. we pledge this will be a civilian program. but we intend to have a robust civilian program that will produce a lot of nuclear energy. no destruction of any centrifuges. listen to what he had to say. >> there is a widespread feeling in the united states, in france, in many western countries that iran should have almost no enrichment capability, that it should instead get its enriched uranium from outside. you said in an interview with the financial times that iran will ab

fareed zakaria talks about this in "time" magazine today. the u.s. government, its business is its people, is under massive sustained surveillance from an infiltration by criminals, terrorists and foreign governments. it would be impossible to defend against these attacks without allowing intelligence agencies to spy on foreign governments and groups abroad. it seems as far as the interface with the rest of the globe, not with our own citizens, but with the rest of the globe, given where technology is today, we need to be doing these things. >> i think that's right, certainly at least to a degree. i don't know exactly how much of it we should be doing. i think that's the policy discussion we should be having. we just need to acknowledge that there's a tradeoff here, that when we back off from that, there will be things that our intelligence agencies will not know anymore and threats that they will have less ability to protect against. and one thing i worry about is i view a lot of this as an alternative to things like actually engaging in foreign war

fareed zakaria joining us. later today in "the situation room," we'll talk about the resurgence of al qaeda in the middle east, the violence in iraq, among other subjects. that interview, 5:00 p.m. eastern in "the situation room". moan while, an angry and emotional interview with dennis rodman. why has he decided to play a basketball game with other former nba stars in north korea on kim jong-ujong-un's 31st bir. you're going to hear how he reacted to some serious questions from our own chris cuomo. no matter how busy your morning you can always do something better for yourself. and better is so easy with benefiber. fiber that's taste-free, grit-free and dissolves completely. and feel better about doing it. better it with benefiber. olive garden's signature favorites weeknights are for favorites. now just $10. including everyone's favorite fettuccine alfredo and our classic lasagna. plus unlimited soup or salad, and warm breadsticks. signature favorites now just ten dollars, monday through thursday, at olive ga

joining me is john king, fareed zakaria, what did you think of the defense secretary?an. i thought it was an excellent interview, wolf. i thought what came through more than anything was the seriousness with which he took these decisions. he was very honest about the areas that he was wrong but what you sense when you listen to a man like robert gates is how many decisions in foreign policy are not 90/10 decisions. they are 51/49 decisions. you have other evidence suggesting one course of action and another course. it's a judgment call and we look back on it and we assume it was so obvious because we know how it worked out, whether it's the libyan intervention, when it's the bin laden raid, whether it's the one you spend the most time on correctly, the iraq war. at the time, all of these seemed much more even-handed and then you get history and it, in a sense, tells you what the answer was. >> he's brutally blunt, john. that came through the interview and even more so in the book. >> and remember his history. worked on the national security council, cia, defense depart

so long as you don't have as fareed zakaria would say in his book, the future of freedom, a constitution that protects minority rights you are always going to have these complex. in northern iraq george mitchell was sent over there for five years. the last iteration was 22 months. he didn't think that peace was possible in northern ireland. he said in his book making peace that the great intangible of solving conflict is exhaustion. not only at the negotiating table but also on the battlefield. the warring factions have to realize that their commitment to the fight, their commitment to the cultural violence has not produced any kind of lasting peace and therefore they need to move in a different direction. so what the two sides in northern ireland required to do the catholics and extremist? they were required to denounce violence and participate in the destruction of their arms so that the culture of physical force to achieve political ends was over. both sides had to give something in order to achieve that. now you may say how can you compare northern ireland with the middle east? will
