reporter: they had fled syria and couldn't face staying in lebanon.eturning was not an option, although they wished it were. going to italy seemed the only way to offer their children a future, albeit an unknown one. ms. al aswad: i don't actually know anything about italy. all i know is that europeans live in dignity, and that's what's important for us. our children will be safe there, go to school and live a normal life. reporter: with little knowledge and even less luggage, their only choice was to trust the italians, wherever they were taking them. the al jedis made their way to a beirut hospital, where all refugees granted this legal passage to italy met before leaving. francesco piobbichi works for the lutheran church. after more than 400 refugees died in the lampedusa disaster, the church wanted to help people come to europe safely and legally to create a humanitarian corridor, something politicians hadn't managed. mr. piobbichi: stupidly, they don't do anything. all they are doing is to build up barriers, and that won't solve the problem. it's

legislations that are voted outside lebanon, especially in the united states.o, we hope this can be understood. and the next measures will not really help the banking sectors. >> it's kind of a dancing act, isn't it? >> dancing with the wolves. >> essentially described it as dancing with wolves, the balancing act, on one hand they want to maintain the financial system, being more integrated. but at the same time they have to worry about what the political implications there. there are a lot of questions there. of course, they're trying to build bridges with other countries like saudi arabia, they may in fact do harm to the political system in lebanon. and worried about whether or not these policies are going to do much good. >> thank you so much. >>> moving on. whatever it takes to rebalance the oil market, that's the message from saudi arabia and russia as the two producers agree to sustained alpha cuts into march 2018. the oil minister in beijing said they would continue to reduce inventories at the same pace. let's take a check at how oil price are doing. wt

lebanon location. i want to brighten up the place by putting in subway-tile walls and new light fixtures. a new counter and serving area will be built to improve and streamline the ordering process. new tables, new equipment, and new floors. in all, i'm spending $85,000 of the $350,000 i invested. it's a big renovation for a pretty small space. hey, guys. -mike: hey, how are you? -kathleen: hi! lemonis: i'm really excited to gather up the franchisees at market square. i want to show them the new look and the new name -- the simple greek. lemonis: so, this name came from a branding expert. kathleen: um, "simple greek"? i'm offended. mike: the feeling that i get is that when you say, "the simple greek," it's almost, like, condescending. like you're calling them somebody not too smart, like a very simple person, like a simple arse. it's a matter of semantics, if you will. lemonis: now, with all due respect, you're not greek. i'm greek. i'm not offended by it. i don't feel like you're calling me stupid. ka

the uranian revolution, the shah started building up the shia population in lebanon because they had been historically discriminated against by the sunnis and christians even though they were a plurality in society so in a sense after the revolution the islamic regime doubled down and took organizations that had already been there and turned them into hezbollah. the syrian irani and alliance goes back a long time during the iran iraq wars, siri was the arab country that supported iran. against iraq. if you look at iraq, shiism has been the center, you can't draw a dividing line between these communities as much as the saudis would like that and you have shia in saudi arabia, shia majority in bahrain and kuwait and when they are mistreated as they often are they are forced to look to iran as a protector because it is the largest shia country. we look at this in all its nuances, you don't see it as black-and-white, i am not comfortable with iran supporting the assad regime and the atrocities it committed but there is a reason for iran's involvement in these countries. >> i want to add

whenever you look at the middle east, whether it is in yemen, lebanon, sir yashg the gaza strip, the money, the funds, the weapons, the knowledge is all coming from iran. today we should work together. in the past, people saw israel was the problem, today some countries, understand it is the solution. we can work together to fight the radical forces coming out of iran. >> jenna: ambassador, great to have out program, appreciate it. these are images from earlier after the president's trip in israel. there is certainly more work to be done and headlines to watch for. we appreciate your perspective. >> thank you. >> as we continue to monitor the president overseas in the middle east, breaking now from the other side of the worl, the north koreans not wanting to be ignored on the heels of another missile test, the north says it's ready to deploy and mass produce a new missile. these missile launches are the kim's regime answer to the trump policy. secretary of state tiller son in the middle east, weighed in on the provocations on fox news sunday. >> the ongoing testing is disappointing,

in lebanon, it's one out of every four.so it would be the equivalent, for instance, in jordan, if 32 million people from canada came into the united states. so we need to think about how are we providing the support to enable these people -- most of whom actually want to stay in that region -- to, again, have the capacity to rebuild their lives there. >> because of the paris attacks, a lot of people -- not everyone -- are saying, "we don't want any syrian refugees in this country." people are so afraid that one might be a terrorist, so what do you say to that? >> well, i first of all tell people what they may not know, which is that it takes up to two years to move through the system of all of the security checks that enable people to become officially refugees coming to the united states. and we've only engaged, you know, maybe a little over a thousand syrian refugees in america to date. and so i think people keeping in mind that there are really strong, again, security measures that we are already taking to ensure we're s

david: which was a creation of iran and essentially controls lebanon right now.- so the u.s. is hitting iranian forces in syria. nobody hates the iranians more than the saudi arabians and the president is on his way to saudi arabia. coincidence? >> well, i think in this particular case because what was happening was the u.s. supported a rebel force was actually being approached by a -- the force that's described as a pro iranian force. now, that pro iranian force included -- apparently now, i'm getting this back channel. david: okay. >> it included syrian troops, hezbollah troops, and guard core. and they were warned, transmissions were sent to the russians to stop, u.s. f-16 did their cold passes, then they fired warning shots. and when it approached, they were hit. and it knocked out a number of armored vehicles and trucks. i'm told that the force consistent of several hundred syrian arm troops, hezbollah fighters and likely members of the revolutionary guard core. and it was a threat, so it was described i think properly by the pentagon as a force protection m

whether it's in yemen, whether it's in lebanon where they've had hezbollah for decades and southern lebanon would also influential positions in the lebanese government, hamas obviously in the gaza strip, iraqi government which is shiite led and has close relations with iran and there is, of course, syria with the assad regime which is being sponsored by the iranians and the iranians are popping up with the help of the russians. the iranians are deafly on the move, on the march, across the region and they been emboldened by the iranian nuclear deal. so, there's a lot of hope writing with president trump that he can reverse this, if it's not too late. julie: i want to ask you with regard to terrorism. president trump and kenneth trump campaigned very hard about the fact that he will defeat isis. so far, he has certainly done a magnificent job in taking such a strong stance in syria where isis has eventually been allowed the opportunity to grow by the tens of thousands because of that whole no boots on the ground policy that our former president obama had implemented and by not growing there o

iran was very active in lebanon before the iranian revolution. the shah started adding up the shia population because they had historically been discriminated against between the sunnis and the christians even though they were already a plurality in society. in a sense, after the revolution the islamic regime double down and took organizations and turned them into hezbollah. the syrian iranian alliance goes back also a long time during the iran-iraq war, it was the only arab country that supported iran against iraq. so you can't just, if you look at iraq, shiism of course has been the center. you can't just draw a dividing line between these communities as much as the saudi's would like that. of course you have shiite in saudi arabia and the majority in bahrain and kuwait and when they are mistreated, as they often are, they are sort of force to look to iran as a protector because it's the largest shia country. think what were all asking is you look at this in all of its nuances so that you don't see it as black-and-white. certainly i'm not comfo

[begin video clip] pres. trump: to clean out the bureaucracy, jackson removed 10% of the federal workforce. he launched a campaign to sweep out government corruption totally. he didn't want government corruption. he expanded benefits for veterans. he battled the centralized financial power that bought influence at our citizens' expense. he imposed tariffs on foreign countries to protect american workers. that sounds very familiar. [end video clip] brian: what's your reaction? mark: i think trump sees a comparison between himself and jackson in terms of draining the swamp. jackson came into office and was determined to root out corruption, in terms of government workers who he thought were incompetent,

role in dealing with syria but also jordan and lebanon will be one that reassures those countries.i've already mentioned egypt. these are all things which, from israel's viewpoint, are key security issues at the moment. and i think that they are not likely to be ones that anyone can ignore. i doubt very much if there's going to be any surprises at this point. mr. netanyahu is perfectly capable of dealing very sophisticated ways with americans. that in this case there seems to be a good relationship, and what he has no incentive to disturb. i doubt very much if president trump will push the envelope here. with the saudis, there is the fact you have both my king and a crown prince. the crown prince is a more public active known quantity. i think, however, the saudi also have been dealing with the u.s. and even the younger saudis have about 30 years of experience in dealing with u.s. officials. we often tend to forget that there is an amazing degree of continuity and experience in dealing with the vagaries of american policy, which can be vague even when they are planned. it doesn't t

when you see over 2 1/2 million refugees in jordan and lebanon, you realize they can't come here, we have to make it possible for them to live there. that's one of the agendas you're seeing. and speaking of the country that our ancestors came from, you know in downtown beirut, in solidare, without glasses, you can see a jewish temple, a shia mosque, a sunni mosque, an orthodox church and a roman catholic church, you can see them all, and you can walk to them in the square, and they're all ancient because our people have lived together, and it's that welcoming they think president trump showed so well in saudi arabia that we can do it again. judge jeanine: and you know what? i think that the middle east is now a believer. the president was very clear, iran is the enemy, and iran, of course, the historic enemy of saudi arabia. have we taken sides, congressman? >> you know, in 1979, sides were taken, we're only now owning up to it. the reality is that the extremist direction of wahhabiism and the growth of al qaeda and isis had much to do with the shia and sunni responding. the reality

and should there be equal condemnation of the slaughter in lebanon caused by israeli action? raids there, 50 lebanese are reported killed. >> israel will live! down with the plo! >> yasser arafat continued his trip from egypt to new york today in great secrecy as he prepared to talk for the palestine liberation organization before the united nations tomorrow. >> we have people who have been trained and who are out now who intend to make sure that arafat and his lieutenants do not leave this country alive. >> a united states army helicopter brought yasser arafat to the united nations, flying him in from the airport because of threats against his life. >> arafat's coming to the u.n. was huge because he was a terrorist. i mean, he was behind munich. so for somebody that would kidnap and murder israeli athletes, coming to the u.n., it was a surprise to us. >> to many people in that room, he was a terrorist. but to an equal number of people, he was a freedom fighter. >> [ speaking foreign language ]. >> in the 1970s this kind of rhetoric made perfect sense. people could identify w

the father was in lebanon. officials adding the father belonged to a former al-qaeda-backed group there. i want to bring in former u.s. ambassador to the un john bolton. he is with me now. you know, ambassador, last night we were talking about this, obviously, and the question was is there a bigger network involved? this couldn't have been just one terrorist. this new information today tells me this is a group. >> yeah. it's very compelling and obviously, we still don't know everything. so the extent of the network and the connections to al-qaeda or to isis could grow even more extensive. and bearing in mind that isis itself is an offshoot of al-qaeda, and it's not like they have uniforms or membership cards. people go back and forth. but this connection to libya country that's dissolved into anarchy, lebanon controlled by hezbollah. i mean, the terrorist connections here i think are very, very deep, and i do think we'll see more information as the days go by and the investigation proceeds. cheryl: well, you kn

applaud jordan, turkey, lebanon, in their goal of hosting refugees. the search of migrants and refugees living so poorly that they are forced to leave the middle east depletes the human capital needed to build stable society. middle eastern countries can give young people a hope for a brighter future in their home nations. that means promoting the aspirations and dreams of all citizens who seek a better life including women, children, and the followers of all faiths. numerous arab and islamic scholars have eloquently argued that protecting equality strengthens arab and islamic communities. for many years, the middle east christians,e for muslims, and jews to live side-by-side. we must practice tolerance towards one another once again. we must make this place a home for every man and woman the matter their faith or ethnicity hope.oy dignity and this is a fabulous place we are at today. after this, i will travel to jerusalem and bethlehem and then to the vatican, visiting many of the holiest places in the three abrahamic faiths. if these religions can j

which supplies hezbollah into the lebanon. these are tinder boxes. we were able to cut off the southern border after the 2006 war by getting syrian forces out of there and the lebanese army in. but the way we deal with that problem is we help protect the israelis. they are very military capable. they are excellent in terms of intelligence and that is why i think you see fewer incidents in the area. the problem with north korea is we don't really have that kind of fix on the problem. >> dr. rice, thank you. i know that you are a california resident as i understand. >> i am. >> and i know you don't want to be president but how can you help out this beautiful state? [applause] >> first of all, we can't keep living beyond our means and trying to raise taxes as a way of covering up the fact we have pensions unsustainable. at some point, californians have going to have the blow the whistle on the budget gains going on in sacramento. we have other issues in california. i think k-12 education is a disaster for poor kids. i am a major

they intervene and meddle in the affairs of arab countries like iraq, syria, lebanon and yemen. they created the world's most foremost terrorist organization hezbollah. they provide comfort and support for al qaeda. they have a relationship with the taliban that destabilizes afghanistan. military -- the heads of the plot escape to iran. >> this is not the behavior of a country that wants others to treat them with respect. this is the state sponsor of isrorism who deservedly sanctioned by the international community for this behavior. if i ran wants to be on a normal country and others to treat it like a normal country has to act in accord with international law the values and the rules of the international system that has existed for centuries. we welcome and i ran that is open to the world and lives in peace with its neighbors. we welcome around that doesn't interfere in the affairs of other countries. this is not the iran we see. the we think about reelection? we want to cede deeds, not words. we will continue to judge iran based on its deeds and base our policy based on iran'

some sort of military offset or pushback to iranian support to syrian forces or to hezbollah inside lebanon? >> all right, bob, kim just mentioned the iranian nuclear agreement that is in place. do you think that at this point, president trump will leave it as is, does he have an alternative? >> he doesn't have an alternative. i mean, it's not a bad agreement. it holds off any development in nuclear weapons by the iranians, good inspection regime, but it's not really nuclear weapons that disturbs a trump administration right now, it's their aggressive policies in iraq and syria. and that also scares the israelis, and it's no coincidence that trump is going from riyadh to tele aviv to reassure them about iran. don't forget that hezbollah sits on israel's border, has a lot of rockets trained on tele aviv and could do major damage. how do you contain iran? they are clearly the victor in the first decade of the 21st century. and, you know, they are getting stronger and they are a stable country, and the middle east, saudi arabia and other gulf states are truly terrified of iran. and what can th

there was the attack in lebanon in the early 19 '80s sponsored by hezbollah. and forces a lo aligned by it ad backed by iran. bombing in argentina in the mid- 1990s, again iranian fingerprints all over it. but when you look at the war in iraq, a lot of those ied's who killed our men and women in uniform, that maimed them, we can definitively point to iranian funding, parts and fingerprints.gs more looking at the mayhem across the middle east it is designed to encumber our policies and make things more difficult for the united states and its allies. there's no denying this. that's why it has beende designated state-sponsored terrorism. why it is slapped with a three/11 of the patriot act. these are all things we've been watching for years. there's no disputing that record. >> host: jeff from thenz foundation of democracy.org, that's a website if you check out the organization for your self. thank you for joining us. >> c-span's "washington journal", live everyday withers about the issues that impact too. on thursday morning bloomberg reporter, dean scott will b
