haley. she said, "we don't do soft power." how important is balancing the soft with a hard power? jamese honest with you, any serious military person i think does believe in both soft power and hard power to we should use all instruments of national power when we are trying to solve a problem. of course, we would like to see diplomacy and economic power used first. if u.s. national interests are threatened to a certain degree and there's no other choice, then, of course, that's when you bring in the potential for using hard power, which i think was the case here. we would never want to rule out use of all instruments of national power to advance or protect our national security interests. david: thank you very much, admiral james winnefeld. for more on our top story, we go to bloomberg's national security reporter in palm beach, florida, and shannon pettypiece, who is in washington, d.c. into the emergency meeting of the un security council taking place right now. how would you characterize it? the international response to the strike that we saw last night? >> it seems to divide pretty

haley gave yesterday and secretary of state tillerson reflects the reality. >> and how is this going over with our allies? >> you know, we got a taste of that yesterday. jamesd that question alongside michael fallon. he said assad would take it one day at a time. the british secretary of defense said we don't believe that someone who bombs their people can stay their leader for very long. the real read between the lines of what secretary mattis has said over here in europe is that the u.s. doesn't really have a policy on assad, and that was reflected, we heard that from the french foreign minister. we want to know the details of what america is thinking. we want the peace talks to succeed and the u.s. peace talks in geneva has been key to pushing them along so far. yes, if this is a change in u.s. position, there's certainly concern in europe, fredricka. >> nic robertson, thank you so much from london. >>> and we'll be right back. he's a nascar champion who's she's a world-class swimmer who's stared down the best in her sport. but for both of them, the most challenging opponent was... pe blood clots in my lung. it was really scary. a dvt in my leg. i had to
