what the death of bin laden means... in the mathematical formula it was necessary but not sufficient. the al qaedarand remains undiminished so the best the u.s. government can do is put off the day of the next attack and perhaps lessen it. it's so interesting.... >> rose: everybody assume there is will be another attack. >> the conclusion of our book is that there will be another attack because the u.s. has to lucky and good everyday. the terrorists have to be lucky and good every now and then. >> rose: when you look at the goals of al qaeda, what's the... what's the... what's the mission? what's the target? it used to be that they wanted to overthrow regimes in the middle east. >> obviously one of the big goals was to get rid of the united states and the american presence in the region. i think that's still one of the big goals. you see these franchises we were talking about is notnly to drive them out through mass casualty attacks like in 9/11 but to disrupt the economy. that printer cartridge plot we talked about befo

do you want bin laden dead?president bush replied in his texas drawl which i won't try to imitate, i want justice. there's an old poster out west has had wanted dead or alive. for the peasant supporters it seems seemingly impossible at the time included large majority of americans. as a simple a slacker in the face of unspeakable tragedy. for the president's critics is ranked as well as the ones her tripod in afghanistan and especially in iraq, the remark would come to epitomize bush's simplistic cowboy diplomacy. even president bush himself would eventually express regret. either way was an iconic moment in the nascent war on terror. but as for worse, president bush inextricably linked, but to the public's mind with the fate of one man. but his humor was mr. manic at the time. although president persona document and a half operation designed to kill them on and it was the first u.s. president to do so. in response the august 1998 embassy bombings, clinton fired tomahawk cruise missiles at al qaeda training camp

laden was even there. and the tremendous risks not only to american forces that were going in there for this mission but the implications if anything went down with pakistan somebody could be shot down, taken hostage. it's a time when, of course, the u.s./pakistani relations were already very low and very bad. >> rose: and people... go ahead. >> and yet predent obama said no, we're going to have to take this opportunity. >> rose: and he did it because he wanted clear and convincing evidence that osama bin laden had en captured or killed? >> that's right. he had some options front of him, including massive bombing attacks and drone strikes but neither one of those would have been able to give him the proof, charlie, that i think everybody in the world wanted to see. that is make sure this actually was osama bin laden, he's actually killed and then, of course, that i dispose of the body at sea not to make a martyr out of him. >> rose: i've asked this question often which is people in the department and peopl

i think they got bin laden. and i was so gratified. was grateful to president obama for taking a difficult decision because by all reports it wasn't a certainty that osama bin laden was there, and i was very glad that i think we had left the infrastructure in place to make that moment possible. the courier, for instance, who in 2007 we learned of this courier who eventually gave up bin laden, and so -- or led us to bin laden, and so this was a great story of american perseverance over ten years. said to foes in particular, we don't give up until the job is done. >> who was the first person you told when you heard the news? >> well, i actually had a couple of people with me, traveling with me. one of whom had worked with me at the state department. we immediately talked about it, and it was a really very -- very gratifying moment because even though i don't believe that al qaeda is done as an organization, in many ways the organization that did 9/11 is a very different organization now. it's been cut down to size. not just through the k

well again he's not a hawk after all the fact that osama bin laden is dead this the fact that gadhafi is dead. because these are already in the works we've been fighting al qaeda since two thousand and one actually before that covertly so this is nothing that obama went out and did it's not like he's rambo ripped off his shirt stuck a knife between his teeth and what out this is a president who goes around the world apologizing for this country apologizing for the american people apologizing for what we've done in the world but before foreign leaders bowed before the saudi king even baal before a mayor in louisiana or this is a guy who had his you know over foreign policy what he does have is a thirst for at a loss to for the use of power ok cliff cliff jump head cliff jump in. but that's patently ridiculous i guess and more actually be preferable if we had a president who declared victory in iraq and got up on an aircraft carrier and pumped his own chest before thousands of americans died in a war that wasn't planned out where paul wolfowitz said oh the oil will pay for the whole thi

well yeah i mean look how some of bin laden dead anwar locky dead the market off the dead that sounds like a pretty tough pretty aggressive pretty hawkish foreign policy and americans do give him pretty high ratings on his foreign policy the problem is for a lot of americans he doesn't talk tough he doesn't have any swagger and a lot of americans continue to think of him as a weak leader mostly because their perception in domestic politics i think you see mark i mean so you know that's why it's going to be difficult to go after obama because he's a hockey after all. well again he's not a hawk after all the fact that that osama bin laden is dead to the fact that he's dead. his peace war already in the works we've been fighting al qaeda since two thousand and one actually before that covertly so this is nothing that obama went out and did it's not like he's rambo ripped off his shirt stuck a knife between his teeth and went out this is a president who goes around the world apologizing for this country apologizing for the american people apologizing for what we've done in the world befor

unbearable hell and a choking life this was in two thousand and one interview with al jazeera bin laden said that americans would give up their freedoms in exchange for security member ben franklin a warning us about that he said free people do not relinquish their security this is contrary to bush's claim that we ate freedom let him tell us why we did not strike sweden for example. it was from a video broadcast on al-jazeera two thousand and four bin laden said that america was becoming more authoritarian of the bush administration and was being run by outlaws rather than the rule of law he said we have not found it difficult to deal with the bush administration in light of the resemblance of the bears to the regimes in our countries half of which are ruled by the military the other half ruled by the sons of gangs bin laden said he was going to use bush and cheney's fearful response to his crimes to bleed us dries and all we have to do is send to measure the dean to raise a small piece of cloth which is written. in order to make the generals race there to cause americans america to suf

bin laden's been killed. gadhafi's been killed. mubarak overthrown. >> yes. >> we've had the biggest financial crisis again we've ever seen. and we've got a guy who used to sell pizzas running your party's charge to take on the president. it's been pretty quiet. >> it's been a busy several months. that's absolutely right. >> what do you make of the whole herman cain phenomenon? because it is a phenomenon. he's come pretty much from nowhere to storm the gop ratings. he's engulfed in maybe scandal. we don't really know the full extent of it yet. but what do you think of him personally? >> i don't actually know him. but this is what our primary season is all about. he's an interesting person. he has an interesting background. obviously, a lot of business experience. and he's sort of shaking up the race. i don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, but this will all settle out over the next several months, and the republican party will choose a nominee, but our primaries tend to be a little bit like this. >> reading your book, obvious

do you believe bin laden is dead? >> yeah. i think he's -- he may have been dead for ten years for all we know. i mean, he had a disease where most doctors said it was fatal within a couple of years. how did this guy manage to live eight? he was needing dialysis treatment when 9/11 happened, and yet they tell us he survived that long? i don't know. i'm not privy to the intel. i'm not currently in the military and haven't been for 40 years. again, let me commend the navy s.e.a.l.s. they will get the job done. they are the best we have. >> i'm all for conspiracy theories, but obviously the navy s.e.a.l.s themselves who said they found bin laden alive and killed them. >> how do you know that -- wait, how do you know that? none of us know the guys that are on this mission. none of us will. who is to say that helicopter that killed those 18 guys from team six didn't have all the guys on it that got bin laden? how do we know? we will never know. because that's how secretive team six is. piers, you'll never know who the operators wer

but ever since that interview a few months ago both bin laden and gadhafi were guilty and bin laden's case by navy s.e.a.l.s, people you used to work alongside. what was your reaction? >> wait, i didn't work alongside them. i'm one of them. they're my brothers. i'm part of the teams. clash 58. no. and i have all the respect in the world for my guys. they'll get the job done. there's no doubt about it. the job is custom made for s.e.a.l. team 6. they're mi lhighly motivated. they're well trained. they'll complete the mission when given the opportunity to do so. what i question is this, were we told the truth? they lied about the murder of pat tillman. they lied about the rescue of jessica lynch. they lied about weapons of mass destruction in iraq. they lied about ties to al qaeda with saddam hussein. none of those were true things. so it becomes -- credibility by country. >> how do you -- >> they're not telling truth. >> let me ask you a direct question. do you believe bin laden is dead? >> yeah. i think he's -- he may have been dead for ten years for all we know. i mean, he had a dise

precursor to the death of osama bin laden there were weeks of meetings covert meanings which somehow didn't leak out of the white house and obama was present in every one of those meetings he knew every detail of that daring raid to eliminate osama bin laden he was watching while it happened he was very much involved in the planning of this and it was his misson mission the same way the elimination of our lucky was very controversial a lot of liberal said the president should have gotten legal opinions was it constitutional to send a drone to another country to eliminate an american citizen he went ahead and you're not going to just be here are you going to show our break and after that short break we'll continue our discussion of a g.o.p. candidate state with our. kate snow. this is the moment and is to me of creation of the do was food system the global food system is not created to feed the people of the world is created to maximize the profits. gernot trading the actual physical grain your trading promises for grain to be delivered a monster six months or twelve months or eightee
