and i don't know if you know him it's a cia agent who interrogated saddam hussein and he said that if we're saying remain in power and no isis could have ever popped up in iraq do you still feel now that removing the dictator was really poor us all of this like suicide bombing and civil war destruction blood chat when you weigh all the pros and cons ears after. i totally disagree with that terrorism was all over the world world before over the overthrow of saddam hussein since saddam hussein the that's why i said in the terrorism the the eruption of terrorism in syria and iraq was how out by some of our neighbors because they wanted to bring down the syrian regime and they wanted to bring down the democratic regime in iraq the new democracy in iraq because it's that i can threaten their own government because they see democracy as a catching disease if you like and it crosses the borders without and without the permission without a visa and that's it that's where they were frightened by a dead democracy democracy in iraq and did a freedom of speech in iraq and freedom of thought in ir

i appreciate what you said with saddam hussein because north korea supported both saddam hussein and cut off the in libya. as an example of what happened -- qaddafi in libya. as an example of what can happen when they support the united states, they ended up disowned again. so those are good examples about why they have a nuclear program, what is to determine attacked, invasion, and an attempt to overthrow the regime in north korea. unfortunately, they have major menace progress -- have made tremendous progress. host: so kim jong-un has suggested that north korean athletes travel through the demilitarized zone and march together in the opening ceremony, something they have done before but not recently. what do you think of the likelihood of that happening is, said?at message with that guest:guest: i actually think having some sort of cooperation between the two koreas is actually quite positive. crossing the tmz is not a common entrance, but it has happened in the past. i do think it is possible that the athletes, when they march together in the opening ceremonies, as i mentioned, th

and i don't know if you know him it's a cia agent who interrogated saddam hussein and he said that if we're saying remain in power no isis could have ever popped up in iraq do you still feel now that removing the dictator was really poorest all of this like suicide bombing and civil war all destruction and blood chad when you weigh all the pros and cons ears after. i totally disagree with the anti terrorism was all over the world well before of the overthrow of saddam hussein since saddam hussein the that's why i said in the terrorism the the eruption of terrorism in syria and iraq was how out by some of our neighbors because they wanted to bring down the syrian regime and they wanted to bring down the democratic regime in iraq the new democracy in iraq because it's that i can threaten their own government because they see democracy as a catching disease if you like and it crosses the borders without and without the permission without a visa and that's it that's where they were frightened by a dead democracy democracy in iraq and did a freedom of speech in iraq and freedom of thought

king hussein of jordan was another such leader. in 1994 he ended 46 years of war and entered into a peace agreement with israel that holds to this day. when king hussein signed the peace treaty, he said this, quote, these are moments in which we live, the past and the future, when we come to live next to each other as never before, we will be doing so, israelis and jordanians, together without the need for any to observe our actions or supervise our endeavors. this is peace with dignity. this is peace with commitment. i ask here today, where is the palestinian president -- where is the palestinian king hussein? where is the palestinian anwar sadat? if president abbas demonstrates he can be that type of leader, we would welcome it. his recent actions demonstrate the total opposite. the united states remains deeply committed to helping the israelis and palestinians reach a historic peace agreement that brings a better future to both peoples, just as we did successfully with the egyptians and the jordanians. but we will not chase afte

take as always this story has got legs certainly we hope to get you back soon to talk more on it hussein by professor of international relations and chris middle east technical university thank you. now moving on to another headline story with just weeks to go until the winter olympic games inside korea and more russian after leeds are now expecting their dreams of competing to be dutch to the international olympic committee has sent a list of eligible participants to moscow and among those missing are athletes who've never failed that doping test during their entire career. tensions in the sports world are hitting another high as the i.o.c. has confirmed that the number of russian athletes that are eligible to compete in the upcoming winter olympics is to be reduced now unexpectedly and without explanation now the full list of who is eligible has not yet been released but the russian olympic committee has disclosed a number of names that are thought to be who will be disqualified and that decision is ruffling feathers not only in russia but abroad as well a french sports outlet has publ

s military action in iraq was not a last resort the iraqi leader saddam hussein didn't represent an urgent threat and there was no undeniable evidence of weapons of mass destruction and being used by the iraqi government lindsey german from the stop the war coalition believes it's easy for u.k. in peace to vote for war but much harder for them to deal with the consequences. chilcote was meant to change the whole why in which these decisions were made it hasn't been implemented it hasn't been taken up and i fear that we are going to get another episode like we've had with tony blair in the past and of course it shows that this government just like the blair government doesn't want to be constrained by anybody the decision to go to war can be taken by a tiny clique of people around the prime minister with very little democratic accountability and of course it's very very easy for these m.p.'s to vote for war it's much much harder to deal with the consequences of war as we've seen in iraq and as we say as we're still saying in afghanistan and libya we know that to raise my is finding domestic

and it turns out that we decided to attack iraq and overthrow saddam hussein. he didn't have nuclear weapons. the north koreans arguably have just as oppressive a regime, but we decided not to pursue that course of action with north korea. how do you see the difference? mr. cha: it is a tough question to answer. without recounting the whole history of why the bush administration went into iraq, that was not my area of responsibility. so i am not really capable of commenting on that. but i think in the case of north korea, i think there are two issues. the puzzle is why iraq -- not why iraq instead of north korea, but if in iraq, then why not also in north korea? i think there are two answers. the first is that you have china, right? china sits right on the border with north korea. the last thing the united states or china wants is some sort of confrontation or conflagration on the peninsula that would cause the two to butt heads. -- heads as they did in 1953. i think anytime there is serious thought given to some sort of military action, this is constantly at t

i asked the mirror hussein.ng to many traders at the new york stock exchange, many believe there is still more room for these stocks to grow. are we going to see another gain of 25 percentage points? probably not. but there is still some more economic news coming out that looks like it will be positive. that should still push stocks higher, for it is the first six months of 2018. -- at least. what are the expectations? which sectors will grow the most? investors are looking at the infrastructure spending bill the president said he wa nts to spending bill the president said he wants to pass. that will have a big impact on construction companies. think big companies like caterpillar. they will do really well, because they will need construction material to improve roads and infrastructure in the us. this is supported by the recent tax support built which benefits big corporations. american airlines said they would give employees a $1000 bonus thanks to the bill. southwest said a donated $5 billion to charitable co

one of the losing candidates in that election mir hussein was savi still remains under house arrest earlier we spoke to a.f.p. correspondent eric randolph in tehran and asked how much of a threat the protests are for the regime. well this is the biggest test the regime has faced since there were mass demonstrations back in two thousand and nine the difference this time it is that. considerably more though it is very difficult to confirm the reports we're hearing for problems is due to restrictions on travel we do know that six protesters were killed last month on school these ocean. several other. very small towns and cities. all over the country these days. there is a start of crackdown was just been told the four hundred fifty people in the rest of iraq last three days were protests actually rose at least we don't know how many you've been arrested in other parts of the country. that was eric randolph speaking with us a short while ago to germany now we're on member of parliament and a leading figure in the far right party may face charges of illegal hate speech for her angry tweet on new

going back to 2005, 2006, the neocons came in after they toppled saddam hussein is real men go to tehraney were most eager to facilitate regime change in iran. there is a lot of interest in terms of agitating for instability in iran. from people who pretend to care about the iranian people but who could not care less about the iranian people. start with donald trump who tweeted his concern for the welfare of iranians, the same president who not more than three months ago announced a ban on iranians coming to the united states. he has aligned with the world's worst and most savage dictators, including in saudi arabia and other places around the world, lots of western commentators who are posturing about being concerned about human rights in iran are people in think tanks funded by other dictatorships and repressive tyrants in the same region. when itd be skeptical comes to people like donald trump or people in washington think tanks pretending to want to intervene in iran out of concern for human rights or the welfare of the iranian people. when it comes to foreign policy, the best we can

but remember then that saddam hussein invaded kuwait soon after, and then you had 9-11, invasion of afghanistan, of iraq, so this is a long time coming. it's very natural policy evolution. after all, asia is the organizing principle of the world economy, to a large extent. - china has certainly reacted to the pivot to asia fairly negatively. china is inclined to see any number of u.s. initiatives not limited to the pivot to asia as efforts to encircle china and to contain its power. - [narrator] the u.s. has begun to flex its muscles by conducting freedom of navigation exercises. china has condemned those moves as cold war thinking. - we don't wanna go to war with china. i don't think we are gonna go to war with china. but then again, we have to push back enough politically, and through freedom of navigation exercises by sailing our military vessels through clearly international waters, but waters that china may claim, but clearly international to show to the chinese that we're not gonna be intimidated by this excessive use of chinese military power in both the south and east china sea. - the u

not the enemy perspective but what it was like to live in iraq under hussein.it was interesting in vietnam because the encouragement of vietnam veterans who said you know we would like, we are curious what was the other side writing throughout this? vietnam was an interesting dilemma. because it is a communist country. and so, there are crimes are heavily censored. what they would allow us to see was very well picked out. the way that i got from the letters i eventually found, i was lamenting to someone about the trouble of these archives. i think this is a gentleman who worked in a hotel. like a concierge. he said you know, i had a guy that was looking for stamps. and i sent into an antique shop and he came back complaining that there were not a lot of stamps but all of these letters he had no use for. and i said that is what i am looking for! so we went back to this antique shop dealer. the guys that go through it. with my interpreter who skimmed the letters and said this is a great love letter or this is a battle letter. and it was really the stamp collector

by his son hussein who is from st mary's university minnesota and he's a writer thank you so much for joining us here on these releases had been announced a few weeks ago and i guess to some sort of skepticism at the time how do you feel about the fact that they have already begun with a senior leader being released are you surprised or perhaps relieved. sort of surprised. and very happy that he's released to this release of morale good dinner one of the great sense of the country and a lifelong freedom fighter with a victory for their own in the people of it to kill us you know the people have been protesting since two thousand and four this is a victory for them however the question that. although we are happy that morale is released it's a great step however there are still thousands of political prisoners still languishing in the jails. including. one of the most prominent leaders in the country there are thousands of political prisoners still languishing in the jail there are the score so for journalists that are still in jail so this crisis only the surface of the problem is fac

five different bases in iraq these bases used to be former chemical weapons facilities the saddam hussein operated it was actually told to me by a former k.b.r. employee that they knew the ground was hot meaning it was contaminated. flabbergasted inquiry i want to talk about these claims that are being served by planners lawyers who effectively are saying we don't agree with the decisions that were made by the military there were we think there were safer ways as we said ten years later five years later we think there were safer ways of disposing of waste and somebody should be accountable for not doing it the way that we think was safer is often suggested and try to wrap themselves in military all this is about is second guessing military decisions about how to dispose of. waste where dispose of waste the problem with that argument that i've seen is that in most cases in fact across the board k.b.r. was wrong in making decisions often concealing what they were doing from the military. they were derelict they know it i believe all these illnesses could have been prevented and partly becau

the advent of the revolution there's been an eighty year war that was imposed on iran via saddam hussein and iraq and after that all kinds of sanctions have been continuously applied to iran so the reality is that what there were iran does it does. nikki haley ice you know i call or nikki from hell keeps on talking about applying more sanctions and the contradiction that. she has in her approach to the palestinian issue. iran and really usa has been belligerent continuously and i just like to remind your viewers that there was a speech ten years ago by mr putin back in munich when he predicted that u.s. power which was becoming uni polar is going to be diminished from internally because and we have seen that particularly with reference to the vote that was taken at the united nations when america stood up against a hundred twenty eight nations should we are we just thirty seconds left but i want to get your views on this last thing donald trump said that the arena people will receive support from the u.s. at the appropriate time your thoughts on what that could mean. well appropriate tim

the sunni-led regime of saddam hussein which was viewed as an important sunni check on irani and shia influence in the region. there is the sectarian dimension but a lot of the rivalry is really driven by geopolitical ambitions and rivalries between the saudi and the iranians. - the primary saudi fear was that the united states would essentially seek a broader political accommodation with iran as saudi expands and they saw a whole series of things happening in the region as playing in iran's favor and against their own and the epicenter of this, of course, is syria. they viewed the uprising in syria and the civil war which followed as fundamentally a war with iran over the future of syria. - [narrator] in syria, iran is supporting the government of bashar al-assad by sending malicious to counter-rebel groups including daesh who seek to unseat him. - iran under khomeini set the course for what is happening today. when we see iranian troops in syria, iranian malicious in iraq and other iranian-supported shia, malicious in lebanon and bahrain and even in saudi arabia, they have what is c

well as he himself has cited the example of libya and saddam hussein in iraq where they were street seeking to get a nuclear weapon in order to protect themselves from their own security and now that kim jong un has blocked the weapon and has been able to guess if milicic misael capability. waning as far as merely united states is that certain maybe he will act middle grade a sense of responsibility i think we need to bear that in mind. force it's something that we should not accept it because it is a violation of the n.p.t. and security council resolutions but formally accepting maybe a defacto acceptance is the only choice rather than to attack. gave it feels all consequences and unpredictable consequences so it was it didn't matter that we have to decide because they're not great power and not crave power countries like north korea or pakistan with nuclear capabilities or even israel need nukes as a guarantor against invasion and they will never give up as long as they fail there is danger to their security how do we deal with that and how he will make them give up their security guarant
