>> hezbollah, there are a lot of reasons -- the central one from hezbollah's viewpoint is that hezbollah is an organization that has built its appeal, it built a million or more followers around a gospel of perpetual war, so it needs, it needs war, it needs the cleansing power of another war to retain or restore its legitimacy among its partisans, then secondly, both israel and lebanon, story, israel and hezbollah feel since 2006 war that they could do better, and it is sort of a disturbing set of structural factors that both sides think in a rematch they will emerge even stronger than they are now. so unfortunately there is every reason for them to clash again, israel in the homes of restoring its ability to project power and the reason hezbollah because it thinks it will succeed even more at thwarting israel's aims and win more support in the region. >> i think israel's objective is the belief that they might be able to wipe them out somehow. >> and that is a belief that i think miss understands the roots of hezbollah's power, one of the characters .. i talk to in my book is man who mo

because many of you know hezbollah. in june 1982, hezbollah did not exist. in june 1982, israel invaded southern lebanon with 78,000 combat soldiers, 3000 tanks and armored vehicles, one month later hezbollah was born. then over the next year, for reasons were still not sure why, hezbollah began to experiment with suicide attacks. and the fourth attack was the famous suicide trust are made of our marines in beirut in october 83, killing 241 of our marines. the same day they did a suicide attack against the french killing the french soldiers. ronald reagan, certainly no power to this a few months later decides to withdraw all american combat forces from the country rather than face another suicide attack. the french left we did. and then israel left, first in 8626-mile security zones in the southern part of the country. and in may 2000, the israeli army left altogether. what's important about the withdrawals is that hezbollah suicide attackers did not follow the americans to new york or the french to paris or even the israelis to tel aviv. since may 2000, the

the israelis are worried about so they make peace with the palestinians big deal iran then tells hezbollah to send rockets into downtown tel a bit of hamas begins to send rockets into stay wrote what they have bought is nothing in exchange for having virtually a civil war to try to dismantle the settlements what does israel get return very very little right so that's why i want us as she says it's time if men. a lot of points here and i think generally if i go back to getting here professor dershowitz is talking about the oss flow agreement so what did and he's saying that they were given a deal what was what if they'd gotten the palestinians out of oslo because a lot of people would say well no wasn't no i'm going i'm just kind of putting it all into one m one basket and over the last twenty twenty years that's all ok and if i can put it under that rubric ok so i'm not a ten i was talking about ten years right all right well we can't even go we can know that we're ok by clinton all right fine and i don't know who broke right there at all mary ok gary and so what if what is the palestinian

hajad but with an international frontier running through the middle, they could face enemies from hezbollah and others on the other side of main street. >> more breaking news for you coming in. this time from paris in fact, but it's the iraqi president jalal talabani with toronto the former deputy prime minister during saddam hussein's reign. he said he will not sign an execution order for mr. aziz. he said he will not do so because he is a socialist and sympathizes with him because he is a christian and an old man and so he says he will not sign an execution for aziz who was sentenced to death just a few weeks ago. >> well, 10 years since vladimir putin first came to power in russia. he was president in those days and in the course of those 10 years, what sort of country has he created? our correspondent in moscow. he's leighing after nearly four years and he has been traveling the country to see how mr. putin has shaped russia and in a small town in central russia, he finds a dark side of the new russian stability and uncorpses reports of shocking police violence. >> the small town of sto

you have to keep your answers short. >> guest: let me do the hezbollah, the hezbollah model from iran when iran fostered hezbollah, the terrorists group, was subjected to some degree in the training and army of the special groups of iraqi, shiite extremist who were fighting the united states and fighting the iraqi government and the sunnies. but we defeated them when we -- when the first iraqi division went down and took out the army in basra. they were defeated. but there were hezbollah elements in the training and arming of the special groups. the second question that i haven't seen personally, a strong presence of indian espionage, if you will, in the afghanistan theater. thanks for bringing it back to the troops. this book is a tribute to the folks that 1.2 million americans who fought in iraq. that's why i wrote this book. >> host: self-published. where can people get it? >> guest: it's published by gwen sis. you can get it at amazon or victoryiniraqbook.com. or from genesis publishing. >> host: what is genesis publishing? >> guest: pretty major house in mississippi. will cologne

so for a simple hezbollah and hamas are classified as religious and separatist. religious and separatist are the most resilient to decapitation while ideological organizations are the easiest to destabilize. so ideological groups that had their leaders removed fall apart about 7% less data those that have undergone to cavitation are less likely than those that haven't and separatist groups are about 30% less likely to seek activity than the separatist groups that haven't been targeted. so, what explains these findings. in order to understand why the ideological groups are easier to destabilize i argue that organizational resilience, the ability of a group to withstand leadership attacks depends on two factors, bureaucratization and communal support. bureaucratization explains the resilience of large organizations while communal support accounts for the resilience of religious and separatist groups. first, well-developed bureaucracies allow an organization to continue operating and replace leadership after decapitation. if they are the structural moriarty at a lev

you're telling me hezbollah is lined up with these guys? >> that's right.ophisticated car bombs that were compared in their level of sophistication to hezbollah and those car bombs started exploding shortly after congresswoman sue meyer received information from the mexican military official that hezbollah was creating the drug cartels to carry ought those kinds of attacks. >> here's governor rick perry, he had something interesting to say. he was talking about the tsa and trying to get everybody's attention on the border. we're pulling out national guardsmen in the next few months. here's the governor yesterday. >> how about we take all those tsa agents and put them on the border with mexico where they can do some security there? that's where we need security. substantially more than in our airports and what we're seeing out of this bunch. >> so you're drawing a picture of a dire situation that apparently is getting worse if there is the hezbollah influence and now the president is pulling back the national guardsmen. >> that's right. this is really an arg

it's got of course its terror proxies hezbollah. it's sending tentacles here to south america.his is what iran is doing today without nuclear weapons. imagine what they would do with such weapons. and you can see how dangerous that is for the entire world. >> so you are on a five-day visit. you have spoken with the vice president biden. you are meeting with hillary clinton. what will it take for you to feel this is a successful trip? what do you want the to see? >> frankly, what i have in mind is not merely to achieve a peace between us and the palestinians, but a broader peace with most or all of the arab states. now that -- that is a game-changer. it would enhance security. it would certainly have great economic benefits, because we could participate with a lot of the arab countries, and especially impressed with the gulf states. we've understood that economic regulations are not a zero sum game, but all parties benefit. >> what has been the impact from europe? europe of course still seeing stagnation and weakness in their economy. how has that impacted israel? >> well, europ

we heard a great amount of concern about lebanon, about the prospect that could be hezbollah floors andhe ruby government to resign and perhaps even formalized a hezbollah takeover of the lebanese government. where is the united states? this is a government that you support. this is a government whose election you hope bring about. where's the united states preventing this? you know, if you're sitting nnn, for example, the region is not moving in a very positive direction. you know, on the east you see that the athenian influence in iraq has grown considerably in the north. you see the theory and have escaped the isolation strategy of previous years and i countries and outside the region are now making their pilgrimages to damascus. d.c. has both been more and more active. and you don't see an israeli-palestinian peace to validate your own -- your own commitment to this. said egypt has its own questions about american leadership. jordan has its own fears and worries. but not exactly the same, but there is a commonality of purpose here, which is for better or worse, this is our team. thi

can they offer israel only peace in the west bank they can't offer them peace in the north that's hezbollah they can't offer them peace in gaza that's hamas so the palestinians are offering less and demanding more they're not in a particularly strong bargaining position israel is a democracy it just passed a law now requiring a plebiscite before it can return land that in the next day after the sixty seven war the united states is simply following a course that has happened for many many years and that is israel has been willing to come forward and make peace on a reasonable basis the palestinians have said no the palestinians won't even pronounce the words that israel is the nation state of the of the jewish people and so you know i'd like to see peace i'd like to see those two state solution i'd like to see the end of the occupation but the palestinians have to come forward with some. compromise as well it can't all be on israel's side you talk about bribing israel the power the united states bribes the palestinians all the time constantly pays them enormous sums of money gives them suppo

first, do you think that the andror groups hamas hezbollah are in iraq?istians? the other question is in afghanistan, is it not true that pakistan and india are doing a sort of war against each other in afghanistan and we are getting caught between them? i think india is sneaking in and their terrorist instigators into afghanistan. host: we have to leave it there. you have to keep your answers short. guest: hezbollah model from iran was injected to some degree in the training and arming of the special groups of iraqi shiite extremists who were fighting the united states and iraqi government and the sunnis, but we defeated them when the first iraqi division went down and took out the mahdi army. there were hezbollah elements in the training of the so-called army special groups. i have not seen a strong presence of indian espionage in the afghanistan theater. thanks for bringing it back. to the back this book is a tribute to 2 million americans who fought in iraq. -- this book is a tribute. it is published by genesis publishing. you can get it at amazon or

gone back for over thirty years if it's not the nuclear program it's iran's support for syria or hezbollah or the palestinians and so on and so forth so for the you know the i.a.e.a. has never shown any evidence whatsoever that iran's nuclear program at any time in the past has been anything but peaceful the iranians actually gave up enriching nuclear enriching uranium for over two years and got nothing in return and so the iranians believe that every time that they give concessions to the americans with the appease the americans the americans only become more demanding so from here on the iranians say that no we're going to continue enriching uranium but if we are if there is a way in which we can show and be more open we will do that but at the same time you must excuse shouldn't expect iran to be too open when americans are constantly making military threats against the let let's leave it there for the moment thank you very much indeed dr mohammad marandi from the university of you driving out of there thank you. president obama has addressed a bipartisan meeting in the white house wher

responsible for the arsenals and in certain cases these weapons can lead to certain groups like hezbollah and can be used both against. the serial and then some cases against syria which closes the while for sure in the region that's why whether it was a wise decision a month only time would show. look at the situation in the middle east and the lebanese neighbor is it possible that lebanon may feel some threat in the region coming from one of its neighbors. to sleep on the on doesn't feel very much secure due to its must see reward due to the. recent. one the stop here which was surprised several years ago. due to the fact that central government almost doesn't control the solving territory close to you sir that's why there are many friends. living on security. but the majority of them they are not from external enemies but they are from the situation inside. while some say the lebanese army is poorly equipped but do you thing this is just part of the reason why the country seeking new weapons. in fact the freedom armament or the eleven on this is their e s three inch mique so focused on

using hezbollah being more and more active. and you don't see and israeli-palestinian peace to validate your own commitment to this. so egypt has its own questions about american leadership. jordan has its own fears and worries. they're not exactly the same, but there is a commonality purpose here, which is for better or for worse, this is our team. this is our team in the middle east. moderate sunni, arabs, israel, this is our team. and our team is wondered where the captain is going. >> yes, please. >> david, i was interesting of what you said about the x. -- the efforts to tap them because i do report, have reported about those efforts, and this is a very good question that if you get mainstream, still complaining about inside me but i have to report that, too, and reported that they haven't made efforts. the washington institute is an organization that has huge influence in the world that i cover, and that we both live in. are you going to try to get that message out? >> i speak across the country i will be in los angeles n

first, do you think that the andror groups hamas hezbollah are in iraq? are they the ones murdering and slaughtering iraqi christians? the other question is in afghanistan, is it not true that pakistan and india are doing a sort of war against each other in afghanistan and we are getting caught between them? i think india is sneaking in and their terrorist instigators into afghanistan. host: we have to leave it there. you have to keep your answers short. guest: hezbollah model from iran was injected to some degree in the training and arming of the special groups of iraqi shiite extremists who were fighting the united states and iraqi government and the sunnis, but we defeated them when the first iraqi division went down and took out the mahdi army. there were hezbollah elements in the training of the so-called army special groups. i have not seen a strong presence of indian espionage in the afghanistan theater. thanks for bringing it back. to the back this book is a tribute to 2 million americans who fought in iraq. -- this book is a tribute. it is publis

was supposed to live up to the terms of the agreement, he was open supporter of terrorists, funded hezbollah and hamas. he was an active opponent of our interest, and represented a threat that we could not longer tolerate. didn't mean we gave up looking for osama bin laden. that's one the great myths. look at the memory memory memor, where does al qaeda go? elsewhere. this is one the problems that you face when you face a -- not a nation state which you have a capitol protecting a territory. it's when you face terrorism, they are capable of going elsewhere. they went back to pakistan and yemen in the horn of africa. it'd be nice and easy to invade pakistan. there's been a general sense of the region of the war that we are in. who wants to engage in the invasion of an ally. we got to use all of the tools available to let us degrade. not just get osama bin laden, but to degrade the affiliates who's going to be a struggle similar to the cold war. from 1945 until 1989 or 1991. you pick the end date. the west had to confront an enemy. we face a similar long term threat from a different kind of en
