we go to kenneth, the chief eurozone xleist from central london, thank you for being with us.here are two issues here when it comes to greece, the economic issue and also the political issue. how much of the politics is going to effect success when it comes to greece? >> well i think the two issues are intrinsically linked. we're talking about a confidence vote today to confirm whether the government has a mandate to press on with its austerity program. we're assuming that vote will go in favor of the government, albeit with some risk it doesn't. hopefully the government approve the next round of measures, trigger the financial assistance from the eu and the imf to allow greece to meet its obligations in the period ahead so obviously if the political situation is vulnerable and the government falls then that provision of financial assistance is open to question and obviously the consequences of that in terms of confidence could be potentially very large. >> greece needs to raise some $70 billion by 2015 in order to pay back its loans. they want to do that or hoping to do that

hotly-debated issue at the time, and i asked the question of the famous keynesian economist john kenneth galbraith, at what point does the militarization of the army undermine the defense of the united states instead of protecting it? galbraith said the proposed military buildup would send the united states hurtling toward that point. over the last 30 years, we've watched america's involvement in afghanistan closely as the narrative took shape and then twisted and transformed like the proverbial train wreck in slow motion. all through the 1980s we observed killing russians and holding them in afghanistan as a payback for the american humiliation in vietnam was the primary focus of american policy. in the 1990s we saw the stirring rhetoric and the commitment to the people of afghanistan of the 1980s evaporate as the country descended into civil war and the rise of the taliban. when the u.s. invaded and occupied afghanistan in 2001, we shook our heads at the irony as the u.s. followed the old soviet union into the very same quagmire it had used to envelope its enemy. but with the obama adm
