it is about iran.t is the biggest fault line, one of the biggest fault lines, possibly the biggest, now fracturing the middle east, versus the smaller one between qatar, saudi arabia, and the emirates. charlie: why don't the saudis at some point say, enough is enough, they are supporting people that are opposed to us and they are supporting terrorism? that's what they said about qatar. they said, we've got these 13 demands. turns out most of them boil down to not so much al jazeera and all those other things, but boiled down to some sense of please stop supporting revolutions against us and our allies. yes or no? you tell me, you're there. what is at the heart of this? again, i think it comes down to power. in their eyes, qatar, from its inception, has been a maverick rogue nation. they punch above their weight. you listen to the qatari, they say we should be able to forge our own independent policy. we have big ambitions and we are very wealthy. charlie: we've play all size, we have a big american bas

let's talk about iran first, jake.s he setting the stage to break out of it october 15th, the next deadline, to certify that iran is complying with the nuclear terms, or is he saying something else? >> well, he certainly is laying down rhetoric that suggests that whether it's in october or later, the united states is going to walk away from this deal. what we're hearing from the administration is that they don't want to do it directly, they want to kind of back into the collapse of the deal. but either way, however it ends, if the united states ends up pulling out of the iran nuclear deal and it collapses, it will leave us less safe and secure. there is a reason that today we're not talking about iran testing a nuclear device the way we're talking about north korea doing it or iran sending a missile to the united states. it's because we did it without firing a single shot. i believe what the president is saying today and he's signalling the administration may do here is the height of irresponsibility. it will make us w

iran is in compliance and all the other signatories of the agreement say iran is in compliance. so that would be a political, not an evidentiary decision, which would have very negative consequences not just in terms of iran resuming its program at a more rapid pace but the credibility of the united states and the word it gives when it agrees to a deal would be seriously undermined. we just heard talk of north korea and that's extraordinary that we would not only be creating a nuclear crisis when we don't need one, but that we would be sending a message to the north koreans, don't believe our diplomacy or any agreement we enter with you because we could rescind it the next month. >> woodruff: what do you think of the president not recertifying. >> not just nat iran is in compliance with the deal but that it continues to be in the national interest of the united states to remain within the deal, and that's a judgment that the president is supposed to make. and he's made clearly, in his opinion, it's not in the national interest to remain in the deal. >> woodruff: he's talking abo
