when i look at the middle east today and they were going on across the middle east, i see a few big,,wo of them and the u.s. relationship with saudi arabia. this is a two-part question. at the feature opinion on the proxy throughout the middle east, both in military terms and for influence in on the question of energy. that's a possibility of the two pillars solution, using saudi arabia and iran for the middle east if they sin if that's possible, as the potential expansion of u.s. domestic energy production open a door to an energy solution? thank you. >> the notion of the proxy works. i think i understand what your saying. i think i'd use different vocabulary for that and this gets into the issue of the relationship with saudi arabia. what's going on right now in the middle east and saudi arabia, afghanistan and a number of points in its modern history is basically using the promotion of a particular sort of fell off the islam, we tend to call it wahhabi islam and the west, on the saudi's don't really like that time. but this particular notion, the kind with the embodied in say the t

hyper proliferation in the middle east and the iranian domination of the middle east and oil economy of the world. do any of you want to live with that? thank you very much. [applause] >> ladies and gentlemen, it is clear why people have called this debate one of the toughest global for policy changes -- challenges of a generation. we have had to sharply contrasting arguments, and luckily presented by these teams of debaters. big round of applause for all of them. let me reiterate something. it is one thing to give a set piece speech on the subject you're intimately familiar with. quite something different to come in front of an informed audience and to make your case with passion and conviction. a question in front of all of us is which of these two teams of debaters has been able to sway public opinion in this hall. i'm glad i did not have a ballot. before we make that second vote, let's remember where public opinion was act in this hall at the commencement of tonight's debate. thes have the result on screen. this is a percentage of those who supported the resolution. we saw a larg

there is now a new middle east. and israel is the super power in that middle east. the egyptians under a new government we were told were going to be different islamist ideological you know muslims are crazy and then you put one in power like that and you know what's going to happen. guess what he did. he followed the mubarak policy which is basically to try to broker a deal between hamas and israel. why? because israel's defense budget today is larger than that of all its neighbors put together. that doesn't even begin to get into the technological advantages it has the qual tative advantages it has the enormous advantage of being the only country in the middle east that has sophisticated nuclear weapons on sophisticated delivery systems. and so when confronting that yes the turks will make very fine speeches in favor of the palestinians and the egyptians will she had crocodile tears but none will do anything because they are deterred. >> if israel did not believe in deterrence why has it gone through the enormous expense of building a nuclear arsenal? it's presuma

in the middle east. and the second core theme is that the biggest beneficiary of america's ongoing decline in the middle east is the islamic republic of iran. if you're not sure you agree with these propositions, i want to ask you to compare the relative positions of the united states and the islamic republic of iran in the middle east today with where they were on the eve of 9/11, just over ten years ago. on the eve of 9/11, every single government in the middle east was either pro-american, like the governments in egypt and turkey, in negotiations effectively to become pro-american, like the governments in syria and libya, or anti-iranian like the taliban government in afghanistan and saddam hussein's government in iraq. every single government in the middle east was either pro-american, in negotiations to become pro-american or anti-iranian, a pretty good position for the united states in the middle east. but because of elections, elections, today governments across the middle east in egypt, tunisia,

, and the middle east feel likewise. they don't think about what are the longer roots? nothing to do with oil or israel or nothing to do with the disputed employment of combat troops to protect our otherwises. >> host: the most recent book, "american sheikhs," two families, four generations, and the story of mesh's influence in the middle east. this is booktv on c-span2. >> on location in maryland interviewing professors who are also authors and now joined by richard ruth, a professor here at the nature academy, professor ruth, what do you teach? >> guest: predominantly southeast asian history and offer courses in premodern history, thailand, and vietnam. >> host: why important to know that history? >> guest: the united states is very much engaged in that corner effort world that we have many allies there, partners we are working with, and many students at the nature academy who are going to be officers who are going to go to southeast asia representing our interests there so i think it's borpt for them to know southeast

there is now a new middle east and israel is the superpower in that middle east. the egyptians under a new government we were told were going to be different. they were islamist, they were ideological. these guys, you know muslims are crazy, then you put one of them in power like that and you know what's going to happen. guess what he did? he followed the mubarak policy. which is basically to try to broker a deal between hamas and israel. and why did dough that? because israel's defense budget today is larger than that of all its neighbors put together. that doesn't even begin to get into the technological advantages it has, the qualitative advantages it has. the enormous advantage of being the only country in the middle east that has sophisticated nuclear weapons on sophisticated delivery systems. and so when confronting that, yes, the turks will make very fine speeches in favor of the palestinians and the egyptians will shed crocodile tears but none of them will do anything because they are deterred.

what he does next could determine the shape of the middle east. what he does next could determine the shape of the middle east. you appreciate the responsibility you have right now? >> the victory of the arab spring and the respect of people's will. this world should realize that the will of the people will win over and will prevail. so let's cooperate for the sake of stability and not interfere in the affairs of egypt. peace for all, stability, freedom for all within their nation. the arab spring will win over. and this area shall civilize, but of course, we can't work in isolation from the world. we love this world and we want to live in peace. we'll work on that, and the will of the people from the region well prevail and win over in the near future. >> reporter: president morsi tells me he is planning to come to washington to meet with president obama very soon. also in the process, he will make a stunning request to the united states about the fate of an islamic cleric convicted in the first world trade center bombing. that and more coming up

right now i think that western american anglo-american european policy towards the middle east has generally been what it's certainly lacked nuance but democracy is more than about as someone said earlier one person one vote maybe one election is about a context is about respecting the opposition it's about tolerating the people lose about a free press you know in turkey right now you do have democracy but you have more journalists in prison and then the other country on earth what i'm frightened about in egypt is that if women turning up to vote are denied that vote because they're not wearing a job or a burka we're in serious trouble right gentlemen i'm going to have to jump in here we're going to a short break and after that short break we'll continue our discussion on the west stay with r.t. . well . science technology innovation all the latest developments from around russia we've got this huge earth covered. mission to free. education free. for charges free. free. free. free. free blog video for your media project a free media. join me on a journey to the heart of the pro

you mean the middle east of afghanistan precisely talking about pakistan. pakistan and i think this is the most troubled and troubling region in the entire world actually for even more so than iran because you have a government in the country that still is meant to be allied to the west but of course is playing a game has a nuclear bomb drones are killing innocent people as well as the guilty you know there was a time when warriors or each other face to face and it was never a good thing sometimes it's inevitable but today these drones are being flown by by no exam rooms three thousand miles away i don't blame the west for using drones it's an exclusive the west of course so people use them but i'm not sure how you deal with pakistan i know being on the television i meant to have supernatural wisdom but i don't know how you deal with a country where the you know there was a time in pakistan you are said radicalism but the intelligentsia the educated class was sufficiently large it would always be ok when i was at university benazir bhutto was at university

we will not win a war of attrition in the middle east. i further note that you talk about skepticism and pessimism of the american people. that is not some kind of a subjective analysis. that is because we have been there almost four years. there is a reason for that skepticism and pessimism. that is based on the facts on the ground, reality of the dynamics. i have been one, as you know, who believe the appropriate focus is not to escalate, but to try to find a broader incorporation of a framework. it would have to be regional. many of us have been saying for a long time that should not be new to anyone. but it has to be more than regional. it will need to be internationally sponsored. that will include iran and syria. when you were engaging chairman biden on this issue of the specific question, will our troops going to iran or syria in pursuit based on what the president said last night, you cannot sit here today, not because you are dishonest or you don't understand, but no one in our government can sit here and tell americans that we w

so that has been a bad thing. >> george: tens of thousands of christians are fleeing the middle east because of persecution, yet this modern day exitous is getting little attention in the west. now a jewish group is teaming up with christians to spread the word about persecution of middle east christians. chris mitchell reports. >> reporter: almost 200 million christians face persecution each year, especially in the birthplace of their faith, the middle east. iraq is just one example. >> since 2003, there has been a systematic attack launched against the christian community, and other minorities, in iraq. unfortunately, the mainstream media and many churches really don't talk about the persecution of their brothers and sisters in christ. >> reporter: a syrian christian, julianna, had to be smuggled out of her home country due to religious persecution. she says since the end of saddam hussein reign, it has forced two-thirds of iraq's christians to flee. it escalates attacks on churches, to forcing christians to choose between converting to islam or paying a protection tax. >> the next

from 2006, senator hagel had this to say about the middle east. [video clip] >> the leaders of these countries and that particular region have failed the people. for their own reasons. not unlike much of the trouble over the years in africa. it is not america's fault. the leaders themselves of those people and those countries and those regions have failed. have american companies taken an advantage? have there been plundering, abuses? of course. the responsibility for those regions of the world being held behind the rest on the shoulders of our leaders. as i have just catalog about three different reasons, now you see the manifestation. cultures have something to do with that. you cannot impose a democracy, no matter how well-intentioned you are, on a region of the world that may be does not want it. or that does not have history or culture or aptitude to lay down in a democracy and say, now we will fix the problems. it does not happen that way. culture, tradition, religion, ethnic clans are all part of that. you work with the system. i talked abo

can it be a time for peace in the middle east? will we simply see more of the same? >> benjamin netanyahu facing elections in january. his party is expected to stay in power, but they are split over the direction netanyahu is taking the country. some are afraid he is leading israel into more dangerous confrontations with its regional enemies. tensions are high on many fronts. in november, israel responded to rocket fire with a series of air strikes. more than 100 civilians died, most of them palestinian. a cease-fire ended the fighting, but the two sides are still without a viable peace agreement. israel controls the borders. for now, they are allowing goods back in, but the humanitarian situation is dire. hamas is holding fast to its anti-israel's stance. fatah, the internationally recognized representative asking the u.n. to upgrade their international standing. an overwhelming number of nations voted to recognize them as a non-member observer state. they celebrated the news. israel condemned the move. the day after the vote, the government announced the massive se

starts another war in the middle east to disarm another middle eastern country of weapons of mass destruction that it does not have. and that the damage that the backlash to this does to the american position in the middle east. makes. how much damage was done the american position by the invasion of iraq makes that will quite trivial by comparison that's my worst case i want to ask you about the new face of the pentagon chuck hagel he allowed himself to say outright attacking iran is a stupid idea and i believe you also called for direct negotiations do you think we could see direct negotiations any time soon with chuck hagel in the ministration well if he i think that that former senator hagel has taken courageous positions on iran on a range of issues and i admire them and respect them and the concern i have is that he is being nominated for the wrong job to carry out those positions his defense secretary if he is or if he is if he's approved to be as defense secretary he will not be the person in charge of creating or implementing strategies of iran or any other foreign policy issue there

policy in the middle east stability or an expansion of democracy?hink they're mutually exclusive. i think they go together. and i believe that our policy should be both to encourage stability, to encourage a peace agreement that would permit israel to live in peace and security with its neighbors, and at the same time, to encourage the establishment of democratic roots in the various countries in that region. i think they all go together. >> is it fair to say mubarak was a better partner in the mideast process than morsi in egypt, for instance? >> yes, of course, that's fair to say but that overlooks all of the other factors involved. the egyptian revolution was indigenous. it was the egyptian people expressing themselves, and while it's very clear that in terms of the middle east peace process he was much better, it's also clear that there were many other factors involved in his governance and the revolution by the people of egypt. one of the important questions that americans have to ask is, do we really believe in democracy which by its very term

to recalculate what they are doing in the middle east israel dealing with the middle east as a dominating power and they try all the time to build walls around them themselves claiming that the people is hating them and targeting israel has been harmed the whole region and the area around around israel they are building the wall around the palestinian areas we clean that is for security but it looked the palestinians in forty percent of the land they built around gaza and they turn goes into a jail the biggest prison in the world and we know how the diversity of the situation in gaza they are still syria and they are building a wall on the occupied land so they want to keep this london to keep themselves as if it's not a solution that you keep building walls you need to do peace with the region you have to write to the people israel can't build its future on the expense of the people of the region and that then building walls to protect the to protect themselves is not going to protect israel it's people's rights and they will keep claiming the rights that it is leaving it and pushing it

they were forced to become interested in the middle east. not long ago i asked professor louis bourn in 1916 there were very few people from anywhere when he was. did you ever think that your field would become so important, so interesting in your field? she said no, not ever. that's good news. there are lots of people who know about the middle east and lots of different outlets. this is johnson of the "national review" in the university and so there are groups like the middle east research institute that translates materials in the middle east to lead a group that lets you know what is being said what is on television, what the serbians are, what school curricula are, what entertainment television shows or and they are shining a light on the middle east. and we don't have to rely now on just a few sources or just a few outlets. there are plenty of people who've been struck by curiosity about the middle east. it's all because of necessity. we didn't ask for it. it used to be open to very few people that knew about the middle east and knew th

estimates by western economist let's get some more details on this now and talk to for a halim middle east economist analysts and journalists are joining us live here on the program a pleasure to see you today you've been focusing on exactly how arab nations are rebuilding after the arab spring just how big of a role do you think the revolutions played in the worsening economic situation in those countries hi there well i think the revolutions have obviously forced these this region to reevaluate their economy and the way the governments work but obviously there's a downside to that we're seeing a tumultuous time here in the region and that has no doubt contributed to higher inflation rising unemployment and that obviously has a huge impact on the social aspect is that it's fairly safe to say then that these countries are not better off economically speaking since the the way of our springs went to the region than. no i would say that they're not better off but the revolutions of course the governments the new government the transitional governments to reevaluate how budgets work so we're

if you look at what's happening in the middle east it's not true. what's coming to an end is our involvement from a military standpoint in the middle east. if we're not going to be involved militarily in the middle east we still have interest there. and so the challenge is how are we going to protect those interests and advance those interests in a different way. i think that's one of the real challenges for this next team. >> brown: what do you think? >> i would agree, i would agree with what steve said. in terms of the middle east, however, i would say this. we'll have one more chance. i believe that. one more chance to make an effort to break through between the israelis and the palestinians but if we can only do it if we're engaged and we have all of the major parties in the world engaged in our side and then if there is an agreement perhaps detach this signing of the agreement, the conclusion of the agreement from its implementation that by gaining times for the parties and both sides-- palestinians and israelis-- to deal with their own interna

foreign policy i'm joined by mark radomsky publisher of middle east dot work so much for coming on marc thank you so obviously hate those comments blew up in the mainstream media not surprising at all first of all why is it so taboo to admit that this lobby has influence and secondly why is it so taboo to say that first and foremost if you're a public servant that your allegiance is for this country and that of israel. you know the idea that mentioning the israeli lobby the jewish lobby i've called it the israeli jewish lobby in print for a long time for those of us that have followed this for decades we're looking and we're kind of laughing everybody knows there's this powerful lobby just like everybody knows they're global warming but there are certain things you can't really deal with in washington they're third rails or to do subjects it's not the mention of them that's not the. it's the standing up to them it's not letting them all was dominate it's voting against them it's speaking against them journalists are ostracized presidents are ostracized remember how what was president ca

there were forced to become interested in the middle east. not long ago i asked professor lewis was born in 1916, very, very few people in the west when he was. did you ever think that your field would become so important there would be such interest in your field. he said, no, never. and that is good news, that there are lots of people who know about the middle east and lots of different outlets. by the way, this is ilion johnson of national review until university. the research institute that translates materials from the middle east. a group that being said there. the shining a light. we don't have to rely now on just a few sources. some journalists have devoted his life to finding out about the middle east. it's all about necessity. we did not support. very few people knew about the middle east. whoever gave a thought to kurds, for example. who. but this is -- as i said, we used to know a heck of a lot about south africa. now that knowledge has faded. and now we are experts or semi experts on the middle east and about what region next. he

"the chronicle" ran a story in 1996. chris's momma -- mom mary cut out that and sent it to cairo. chris took his time to write a thoughtful note expressing his concern and wishing us well, commenting on how cute maggie was. he closed that note as follows. as they say in this part of the world, and you will forgive me for butchering the arabic. may allah make things easier for you. this is my wish for chris's family and friends today, as we mourn his loss. the world will never -- the world never saw a kinder, more resolute and enlightened soul. his integrity, character, empathy, his courage, his tolerance were ever present, unchanging, even with all his success and fame and in the face of every challenge. we feel so sad to hav

journalist and a middle east expert says the people of egypt have grown increasingly disillusioned withthe politics of the muslim muslim brotherhood. we want you for them to be a good chance. at the last resort or for most of the people who are out in the streets to the people in egypt now to realize that. religion and politics should not be mixed clearly and some. would use islam and religion to get the support of the people and once the are in the would in a very very differently from what the have been promising us bark to one of the reasons of their anger you are seeing to the industry to egypt and americans want some risk ability to insure and secure their interests in egypt but now the leader of the united states nor morsi himself much say and what's happening today the people of egypt who are back in the street. or the regime elsewhere in africa the french intervention force is continuing its advance in mali helping of the local unelected government to beat back islamic militants several french allies including britain and the u.s. are also providing support for the military offe

i've come to experience it when it comes to matters relating to israel matters relating to the middle east their influence is almost total they have such a way is manipulating the press and. politicians forcing people and they've got many fallback position sometimes it appears they don't get their first goal but they've got two or three or four or five other goals that are all acceptable to them and it's not just american jews by the way goofy christians united for israel which a pac helped organize seven years ago is an extremely powerful force in this country and their convention is even larger than eight x. convention when they hold it at the washington convention center these years well you just reminded me of philip zelikow in two thousand and four when he was speaking to a pac former foreign intelligence advisory of course under bush who said why would iraq attack america or use nuclear weapons against us i'll tell you what i think the real threat is and actually has been since one thousand nine hundred it's the threat to israel so here we have zelikow you know meeting i mean this is
