that they take such an approach the syrian crisis and in my understanding i see two sides to this lorrie of how the west first it's syria's their geopolitical alliance with iran and hezbollah and their perhaps with the with russia so it's a it's there it's not it's not a western friendly country in its current format and probably the west realized that even with negotiations and smooth negotiations with the current ruling system in syria things aren't going to change much and probably they realize that changing by the hour is the only way forward to them the other and dimension is the energy and and since two thousand and nine qatar and turkey have been talking about a new gas line that is that extends from qatar. through syria to turkey and then to there to the european union with gas or resources this is very important because if this is to happen it will bypass russia and it will probably loosened a noose that russia currently has over the european union in terms of supply and gas. in western countries i see we're getting out there dr wilson thank you for giving a shit thought so it i

. >> lorry, your daughter survived. she was shot at virginia tech. here's the thing.love america, and i love americans, i really do, i've been very lucky here. i've worked here for seven years, i live here. i respect the second amendment, when i hear this debate, my heart just sinks that there's still so many people that just don't see a reason to ban these high-powder -- high-powered assault weapons. what is your view? >> i absolutely believe in banning those weapons, i believe in banning semiautomatic weapons, the killer at virginia tech, used 30 round high capacity magazine clips on his guns and untold carnage in those classrooms. the virginia tech families, almost all of them. i speak for all of them, would like to have -- do a better job with background checks. tom ridge served on the panel. the panel concluded at the end of their investigation that all gun sales should go through a background check. >> can you pass the mike to roxanna? i wanted to give the last word to you. you lost your daughter. we all remember the terrible story. she was nine years old. what
