joining us now is general michael hayden former head of the national security agency and cia is now a principle of the chertoff group here in washington. before we get to nsa and surveillance a lot of ground to cover there there is story in the "new york times" this morning talks about month long investigation conducted in to the benghazi attack. there's no clear linkage is central command al qaeda that there was a much messier situation on the ground than originally disclosed by administration or thought by most observers. your reaction. >> i think that has -- these kind of events are not more nuanced than we'd like them to be looking back at them in retrospect. when the attack happened on this network a few days afterwards i was asked who did it. and i said, well, you know, al qaeda divided in three layers, formerly affiliated. at the time i said this was probably high end like-minded or low end affiliated. i think the time bears that out. >> you mean locals who have anti-american sentiment, al qaeda sort of passions in their vein? >> and a -- consistent with the al qaeda. >> these

-- even treason avian if you believe the lies of michael hayden.ird, the real question is, why do we even have to have the discussion of edward snowden amnesty? these documents to foreign adversary governments as he could have and live the rest of his life extremely rich. of theght them to some leading journalistic organizations in the world and asked they be published only in hisy that will inform fellow citizens and the world about what is being done to their privacy. whistleblowing behavior. why are whistleblowers in the was either prosecuted tentatively or extremely or leave the country or live in a cage the rest of their life? all of this talk about amnesty for edward snowden and it is so important rule of law be applied to him, it is quite amazing. here is michael hayden who oversaw the illegal warrantless you shopping program implemented under the bush administration, oversaw torture and rendition as the head of the cia. james clapper lied to the face of congress. these are felonies at least as bad and i would say much worse than anything ed

i agree with general hayden, it is both dangerous and dumb.e used to have these encounters with the soviets from time to time where aircraft would get too close to one another, we monitored one another. that can probably be handled, although it increases the chances of accidents. this is going to continue, because you have an increasingly wealthy country spending more on its military, and i think the most important point, chris, is they have intentionally stoked the forces of nationalism within china to divert people's attention away from other things that they may be unhappy about domestically. nationalism, once unleashed, can go on any sort of unproductive direction. that really is the long-term danger. but it has had the somewhat helpful, from our point of view, consequence. it will drive the vietnamese, the filipinos, the japanese, into a much closer alliance with us. so it is a long-term problem, can probably be managed, but watch out for nationalism in china. >> brit, critics suggest that for all the obama administration's talk these day

general hayden, as you said used to lead the nsa and cia has said in the past that u.s.ens who sold our country's secrets used to defect to moscow and that was really it. but the snowden case he says seems to be different. >> in the past two weeks in open letters to the german and brazilian government he has offered to reveal more american secrets to those governments in return for something. and in return was for asylum. i think there's an english word that describes selling american secrets to another government and i do think it's treason. >> and therefore hayden says snowden himself is a traitor. one former nsa employee who exposed some nsa intelligence gathering techniques because he felt they did not go far enough to protect americans' privacy, he disagrees. >> i don't consider him a traitor at all. i consider him a whistler. the unconstitutionality and the fact we're losing huge, huge amount of trust overseas. >> general hayden contends it will take years or even decades for the u.s. to recover from snowden's disclosure. jamie. >>> molly hennenberg live for us in

>> i want to ask you one thing general hayden.ge ruling judge leon said the government never presented an example in wish the collection of this data led to the prevention of an imminent attack or imminent threat against the united states. in this balance of security versus privacy what the judge is ruling is that the security benefits of this program did not justify the amount of collection of data and the invasion of privacy. >> that's a tough question for the court to rule on, katty. i really mean this. i mean no disrespect for the judge or judicial process. but the judge has expertise when it comes to rule of law and constitutional theory. the judge is not actually in a really good position to judge the efficacy of an intelligence collection program. that's where we might have an issue. look, i understand that in that balance what the program does for you has to play a role. but, again, courts aren't well positioned to judge that. two political branches, the president and the conditioning will have to stand for re-election and

there's a break, a credibility gap, a big one, mike hayden who used to head the nsa and cia said they need to revisit this. they have to better explain to the american people how this is protecting them. this judge said he could not find any instances of it. >> of course that's wrong. there have been instances of it. i think those instances have been belittled by and large. there's some 54 instances worldwide. a lot of the information went to europe, potential terror attacks, the constitutionality of this particular program was sustained. if people really want us shove aside a potential method of protection, and the court says it is not constitutional, that does it. that's the end. none of us will defy the constitutionality issue. but what many of us want to do is do what's necessary within the law to keep our nation as safe as we possibly can. >> are you going to proceed with your reform bill? i know you and senator leahy have dramatically different approaches. >> well, that's right. we hope to work with the house committee and see if we can move this fisa bill. it probably will not
