now we continue our conversations with the great minds tonight last week tom sat down with jeremy scahill the award winning investigative journalist and author of the book blackwater the rise of the world's most powerful mercenary army household and jeremy discuss the escalating events a libyan and the rest of the middle east as well as the big picture on the american approach to security around the world let's take a look. at germany the new york times is reporting today. is male the senior aide to say felt is one of colonel gadhafi has been talking with british officials this week what's your interpretation of that assuming it's true. so i think that your story. see the beginning stages of the cracking of the regime from was within this is something that is very common when when these regimes are put under pressure by airstrikes or by a lot of international attention and they also have this small but significant domestic uprising from a thousand or so rebels and i think that some of these individuals including the libyan foreign minister who recently defected to britain i think we're st

thank you so great to have you here with us jeremy the new york times is reporting today that mohamad is male the senior aide to say fell on a colonel gadhafi sons has been talking with british officials this week what's your interpretation of that assuming is true. but i think that you're starting to see the beginning stages of the cracking of the regime for most with and this is something that is very common when when these regimes are put under pressure by airstrikes or by a lot of international attention and they also have this small but significant domestic authorising from a thousand or so rebels and i think that some of these individuals including the libyan foreign minister who recently defected to britain i think we're starting to see the cracks cracks in the regime and i think many in the in the arab world would rather see khadafi go from some some sort of an internal assassination by some of his people around him or people simply overthrowing him than to see a sustained bombing campaign or multiple countries getting involved in libya's civil war absolutely including us let'

is the subject of a major new investigation by journalist jeremy scahill in the nation magazine and he is the author of this book here blackwater the rise of the world's most powerful mercenary army and he spoke to us for earlier today from new york and i asked jeremy to break down the secret war in yemen and why americans need to be paying attention. but we're seeing unfold in the middle east with what appears to be a contradiction in the way that the u.s. is approaching libya versus saudi arabia or syria or yemen is actually a consistent u.s. policy of supporting ruthless and brutal dictators as long as they are doing the bidding of the united states and so while we see this military action that actually is a war against libya unfolding what we're seeing just a few hundred miles away across the red sea in yemen is that ali abdullah saleh is allowed to snipe or shoot his protesters in the head and is allowed to use u.s. weapons and training to fight his domestic political opponents in training that's been given to him offensively to fight al qaeda forces in that country and you see th

i'm repeating what jeremy has expressed. the notch -- the neighbor has a shrubbery tree along this property line for privacy, and that's the dilemma that we continually are example expressing is that the neighbors insist upon having privacy, but at the same time they want openness, so we're caught in this dilemma. i think the decision to cut back the notch eight or nine feet is appropriate and it gives us a deck that is at least functional. thank you. president olague: thank you. is there any additional public comment? >> i'm jim, one of the neighbors, it was my understanding that miss moore said that the building was too wide at the back. and so they were trying to narrow it somewhat, you know, to ameliorate some of the damage that it's done. we really thought it was the new part of the building, you know. that was our understanding, not just eight feet. so we were somewhat confused. seems like it was changed after we left. so i didn't understand how that could happen. thank you. president olague: thank you. is there additi

the water department jeremy, right? >> spring valley water company. >> this on page 8 item two describes what these records are and if you go to the water department offices down across unite had had nations plaza on 1155 market street they will bring out the original document and their very efficient and quick and it takes a few minutes. they are all written on pencil on onion skin. you can find out how many horse troughs were approved and things like that which is often very useful in determining when there are multiple buildings on a residential lot it will help determine if the secondary building has a history of habitant occupancy or what occupancy it was. >> once again you can get those at what? >> 1155 market street. the manager of the water department that time gathers staff while the city was burning and some people were hauling buckets of water and somewhere hauling records out. if your researching a building that's pre 06. that's probably some of the best sources of information about your building that you wi

so what you are saying jeremy is the plane moved and it wasn't the pilot moving it. the wind moved your plane. >> yes. the wind moved our plane side ways. may have lifted up a little bit. kind of felt like it was going to tip over side ways. and we shifted over about i guess between 5 and 15 feet from what i can gather. >> wow! what was the reaction on the plane? >>reporter: actually pl more calm than i would have thought. i don't think people realize it was tornado rather than just wind. people were already a little anxious because it was two hour delay due to the rain and at this point it was like they were all laughing about it. then the lights went out then it got kind of scary. >>reporter: jeremy how long after this happened did you were you able to get off the plane. >> we were evacuated pretty late. like about an hour and a half later. they said the plane was the safest place to be at the time. we didn't have any injured so i didn't see any reason they would put us in priority and the runway was all torn up and broken glass everywhere so i believe probably was

military operations throughout the middle east but jeremy if you look at these that trouble areas like yemen for example i mean if you build out civil society you're still. promoting a perilous policies but more humane ones and you're involving yourself and i'm faced with right i'm not saying you but i mean that thinking so what what's the endgame for the united states when it comes to these and stabler genes that obviously do have terrorist implications. but we can't necessarily afford to you know intervene in all of these countries that have potential threats well i mean look the fact is that one of the main motivators for al qaeda is the fact that the united states has supported the corrupt monarchy and saudi arabia brutally ruthless regime their brain as well all throughout the gulf supporting these dictatorships either through civil aid or more commonly through military aid so i mean i think that the whole industry that's been built up the counterinsurgency counterterrorism industry thrives on this much in the same way that these sort of cold war years were probably depressed when

jeremy. >> reporter: diane, good evening. as you can see, heavy rain has started to fall in this st. louis suburb. tonight, more bad weather after the tornadoes tore apart neighborhoods like this one days ago. the basement is all that's left. the top floor, torn away. still tonight, more severe weather lashing out across much of this part of the country. late this afternoon, twisters forming in dark skies over the dallas area. residents told to take cover. already this month, 39 people have been killed nationwide in tornadoes and twisters are on a record breaking pace in april and some 5,400 severe weather reports in april with hail and high winds. numbers that are certain to grow. the same storm system's bringing those twisters. bringing flooding rains. 10 to 15 inches in some places. flood warnings in 17 states. in poplar bluff, missouri, mandatory evacuations. they're worried the town's levee could break at any moment. in tulsa, flooded roads and submerged cars. in paducah, kentucky, a state of emergency. they're preparing

jeremy hubbard, abc news, new york. >> our thanks to jeremy. so, we want to turn to rick klein, our senior washington editor who follows all things washington. what are they whisperi ining in. about this, donald trump stealing the air time here? >> reporter: that's right. there's some announce and frustration over the fact that trump is making the noises. it's not that he's a celebrity candidate that's crowding out the more serious candidates, it's that he's doing so by appealing to the birther crowd. not many believe that's going to lead the gop to anywhere where they want to go in 2012. >> and rick, we know a lot of republican contenders staying out to save money here are they concerned that it's trump stealing the free air time while there is any? >> reporter: every moment that trump captures in the early race is time that another more serious candidate won't be able to get back. but look, their biggest concern is that he is going to be out there and essentially make this whole field less serious with his presence there. >> rick klein in was

and to discuss more in the situation in libya will cross now live to london and jeremy corbyn who is a british labor party m.p. thanks so much for joining us here on our team now we've heard that nato has expressed regret over this mistaken attack on rebel fighters just how damaging all of these incidents to the campaign there in libya are now. well i think they're very damaging altogether because the west came in claiming to support a no fly zone immediately started a problem in the various libyan government establishment and military. then patrol the no fly zone but also continued broadening out the direction of the opposition forces in libya so what we've become involved in is a civil war in libya and they all went disastrously wrong earlier today when they bombed an opposition military point that was apparently advancing against gadhafi forces who were them taking over because the opposition forces had to retreat so i think it's very damaging but it underlines the lack of any clear purpose in this mission and the lack of any end game shouldn't there be a clear purpose now bearing
