approach to middle east?> i think it will ship it less of a strategic interest to more of a financial interest. >> president obama in his state of the union when talking about the middle east didn't talk much about the transitions that we were all focused on before the arab awakening, talked more about nuclear iran and increased negotiations and of course syria what is your view of how policy has evolved during the obama administration and do you see an underlying strategy behind this shift or how would you explain what we are watching? >> the obama administration came out of the gate in 2009 with a very robust and highly specific outreach to the middle east. if you look back at the cairo speech in june 2009 which in many ways was the foundational document for the obama administration's outrage, it was perhaps the most sui generis document in the annals of american foreign policy. it's the only instance i know of in which which the president of the united states at address the adherence of the world faith. yo

middle east enemies were hardly passive. middle eastern errorists tried to carry out one ks on american sites not far from here. and one could make the case could be most effective in terms benefits, the most effective military operation in modern history. with a little training and four terrorists ne, 19 succeeded in killing 3,000 america and dragging into two wars that cost the united states well over 10,000 trillion and $1 left the american people very weary. a case could be made for citing the high water mark of the pax-americana. year later, a president bush created the united, comprised of the russia and u.n., the the european union, the quartet, 30-year ed america's monopoly over middle east peacemaking. america's repeated inability to theeve peace in israeli and palestinians first under bush and the obama administration was symptom and a cause of the americana.the pax the other milestone in america's in this region are well known. t begins with the retreat from iraq, the looming withdraw from reluctance to e id syrian

is america's fun in the middle east -- son in the middle east settling?he answer has to be far more nuanced. the key to the future is technology. i apologize, but it's true, and with all due respect to russia, china and france, american technology remains regnant throughout the middle east. rush against an couple old destroyers, but russia's naval presence fails to that of the united states still. secretary of state gary, is mediating between the israelis and the palestinians. and taking a diplomatically -- syria and iran. keeping in mind that the pax americana was always heavy on americana and light on pax, little has changed in the middle east except for the fact that today more middle easterners are killing more of each other, and killing fewer americans. in fact with fewer boots on the ground, or even ships at sea, the u.s. is killing numbers of middle easterners by remote means, as you know. and for all of their war weariness it would be a big mistake i believe for any party in the middle east to target americans. in short, it is surely premature to

middle east enemies were hardly passive. since 9/11, middle eastern terrorists have tried to carry out some 16 major terrorist attacks on american soil, one of them not far from here at that cafÉ milano, and of course there was 9/11 itself, which you can , as a military historian, make a case could be the most effective in terms of this cost benefit, the most effective military operation in modern military history. with little training and four hijacked planes, 19 terrorists from the middle east succeeded in killing over 3000 americans civilians and dragging america wars that cost the united states over 10,000 dead and over $1 trillion and left the american people war weary. cost benefit. a case could also be made for citing 9/11 as the high watermark of the pax americana. a year later, as the bush -- president bush created the quartet, comprised of the united states, the u.n., russia, and the european union. the quartet, which effectively ended america's 30-year monopoly over middle east peacemaking. indeed, america's repeat

approach to the middle east?> i think it will shifted less of a strategic interest and more of a financial interest. >> president obama in his state of the union when talking about talkiddle east did not much about the transitions that we were all focused on before the arab awakening, talk more about nuclear iran, the israeli-palestinian peacehe spo. what is your view of how policy has evolved during the obama it administration? do you see an underlying strategy behind the shift? >> i think the obama administration came out of the robust and9 with a specific outreach to the middle east. speech, which was the foundational doctrine, it was perhaps the most generous document and the history of american policy. he addressed the adherents of a world faith. himcannot imagine addressing the world's methodist or catholics. but he spoke with the muslim world. he was addressing a muslim world and not adjusting the citizens of muslim state. that inadvertently conformed to an islamist notion of states being legitimate, and t

it is the future of the middle east. are we at the tectonic shift point, where we are in a post pax americana mode? is there a certain role for iran in the region? what would that hegemonic role look like from the israeli perspective and the perspective of the gulf countries? today there's a greater confluence between israel and these gulf countries. agreeing on egypt or the fundamentals of the peace process. hope most of all that they agree on the iranian threat. that maintaining the ability to have a nuclear weapon is a unsustainable threat. it is a threat that is multifaceted. it is not just a threat of being of to put a nuclear warhead atop of the capital or any region and the city. i just watched a video clip of the iranians that they put out. they show striking american allies in the region. the bigger threats come in the form of providing nuclear umbrellas to terrorist organizations that could attack israel or other countries in the region with relative impunity. they will have to think, if we strike back, with th

/middle east relations. if you look at all the major news stories in the region today from egypt to syria to iran, their origins can be traced to this foundational moment when the u.s. established an official presence in the middle east and when the cia was created and ran these operations. so in other words, i think if you really want to understand what's going on now, we do have to know about this earlier history. thanks very much for your attention. [applause] >> so i have two quick questions. one, in the '40s, the state department was also full of arabists. george what are shall, i think, threatened to resign if true han recognized israel, or at least he was very unhappy about it. so were these people connected with the state department people? .. so, you know it's a widespread phenomenon in u.s. governing circles at this point and a number of people believe that the u.s. should be throwing its weight behind arab world rather than behind israel and they should oppose the partition of palestine and u.s. r

i think i made a case today saying that though the waning of the pax-americana in the middle east is often traced to obama, i trace it back to the creation of the quartet when america unilaterally gave up its monopoly over middle eastern peacemaking. that taliban under the bush -- began under the bush administration. the fact that bush was very willing to use power and military power on a massive scale in the middle east, and that gave him a certain cree of leverage which -- degree of leverage which i don't know if it exists today. the most, certainly the most emphatic example i can give you is what transpired last summer or didn't transpire surrounding the chemical arsenal in syria where the president came out and said he was going to use force, and the secretary said it was going to be a very small use of force, and then it turned out that he went back to congress, and initially the administration was very sanguine about congressional support for this, but phone calls in both house, both parties was running something like 500 to 1 against. and that also sent an unequivocal message t

middle eastern war this administration from the very get go was interested in ending wars in the middle east. not being engaged in new ones is often said that president obama is more interested in the middle class here in the not states an economic revival in development. then they are interested in the middle east percent. so that's that and from what we know but this administration. i think that we might have some changes on the sidelines i think we might see some lethal weapon being supplied to more moderate rebel forces especially in on the southern front. where oh five that each of the most snow ice is some of the more radical group or groups are weaker than they are up north but um began. i think it's on the sidelines is to bring added pressure. the strategy on syria doesn't change which is the trying get to a negotiated political settlement between the regime on one hand and the opposition say you sense a small tactical shifts that do you think that shift is going to be ok with the us opinion which of course is firmly against any war or in syria that's been borne out by numerous opini

worlds apart it's been three here since the arab spring found that big conventional order in the middle east three years of high hopes and bitter disappointments of peaceful rallies and violent clashes of precarious peace and a full blown war three years on is the middle east closer to democracy that it was before the revolution well to discover that now joined by the former secretary general of the arab league amr moussa mr melissa thank you very much for your time thank you now three years ago you sided with the attacker a square protesters calling for political changes in egypt comparing the whole of syria have backed down both for him jeff and for the region as a whole what has happened since do you now feel proud disappointed or maybe both well the. one you'll call it the spring i believe the it is a misnomer it is a movement for change it is a revolution against the old order so we have entered to even be out of will be in the middle east. have entered already a new phase in the political life of this region that is definitely against dictatorship and privet of democracy now the egypt

he's editor-in-chief of haaretz. >> the middle east is changing. what should the israels find in that. should we try to isolate israel from whatever's happening across the region or should israel be more proactive. clearly prime minister netanyahu did a good job in keeping israel out of trouble in egypt and syria. but now the world carry europeans and others are telling him now you have to play your part in reaching the deal with the palestinians. if you are willing and able to do that, that's the biggest question israeli politic today. >> rose: it's oscar time. we talk about a film that has fend nominations. joining us is david o russell the director and bradley cooper the actor from american hustle. >> i want you to feel so intensely to be moving propulsively and emotion here it's over before you know it and you're moved and you got to go back and think about it but you feel exill rated and alive. when you look at the world you're looking through the movie's eyes. >> we found each other to be like minded in so many ways. a real love for sent ma.

but then again there aren't ceos in the middle east that help promote peace and stability within the region and i can only be encouraged to know about very notion has been put into question by edwin black who is an award winning author this new book cool financing the flames. i met him at the european parliament's to ask him why he started his investigation into the master in the first place. i was struck by the amount of money that's going to the palestinian authority and the fact that it's going to promote peace and reconciliation. but it's actually accomplishing the opposite funding specific terrorism program which is actually administered by the ministry of prisoners in the palestinian authority pursuant to law called the law of the prisoner which creates monthly salaries for convicted terrorists which escalates by the number of people that are killed. this is opening its known. it's not the night and are getting this money from the eu in from united states taxpayer will make sure investigation different. no one's ever done an investigation like this i'm also looking at tax exemp

of course america has made mistakes in the middle east. of course, israel counters that any country has made mistakes in the middle east. and probably the biggest problem is being able to view the middle east not from the outside but from inside. and there was a great civil war general who, i'm not big on civil war, who traveled the middle east in 1872 and he came back and he said that's the most insightful remark ever about the middle east where he said we don't judge the middle east by its own terms but judging by americans terms. we will can be -- we'l will be condemned to always misjudged. a great remark. i want to respond on several levels. george marshall 1948 made a number of predictions about the future of america's role in what was then known as the palestine conflict. one was that the united states would have to send 300,000 soldiers to defend the jewish state because they were incapable of defending themselves. the arabs cut off oil to the west and the west would fall to the soviet union and that the jewish state would emerge an

clashes of caris peace and a full blown war three years on is the middle east closer to democracy than it was before the revelation of what they discovered and now i'm joined by the former secretary general of the arab league amr moussa mr melissa thank you very much for your time thank you now three years ago you sided with the attacker a square protesters calling for political changes in egypt comparing the whole of syria had backed down both for him jeff and for the region as a whole what has happened since do you now feel proud disappointed and maybe both well the. one you'll call it out of a spring i believe be it is a misnomer it is a movement for change it is a revolution against the old order so we have entered we in the arab world in the middle east. have entered already a new phase in the political life of this region but change is definitely against dictatorship and in privet of democracy now the in egypt for example moving according to a roadmap with a constitution written and approved by the people by the majority of the people we are about to start another phase which is

the middle east is the most dangerous spot in the world. think secretary kerry is doing as good a job as could be done in terms of focusing on those issues. and we need to reassure our friends and analyze not just in the middle east but elsewhere around the world that united states is still committed. we're still a country that can be relied upon and that we're with them. >> rose: i had the leading coms here. ben who may know was here from haaretz last night and he was just amazed at the energy and movement forward of john kerry. >> yes. >> rose: he's got all these balls in the air whether it's iran, syria and israeli palestinian negotiations. he went to china, went over there and he had a new statement just yesterday about climate and how important that was and how serious that was. i mean he really is having an almost like very engaged -- >> he's got a very good teamwork -- is a serious person, general john alan is as good as they come so he's really got some good folks. >> rose: john alan is working on the security elements with the pale

the middle east is the most dangerous spot in the world. i think secretary kerry is doing as good a job as could be done in terms of focusing on those issues. and we need to reassure our friends and allies, not just in the middle east, but elsewhere around the world that united states is still committed. we're still a country that can be relied upon and that we're with them. >> i had a leading israeli common list -- columnist here. he was amazed at the energy and movement forward of john kerry. he has all of these balls in the air, whether it is ironic or syria, israeli-palestinian negotiations. he went to china, he had a statement yesterday about climate and how important that was and how serious that was. he is really having, almost like a very engaged -- >> he has a very good team. general allen is as good as they come. >> john alan is working on the security elements with the palestinians. >> the job i had back in when i -- back in 2007 when i was the special envoy working for condoleezza rice. my feeling is that everybody knows what th

he is reporting on the three concerns with the middle east. the civil war, nuclear situation in iran. the peace talks in geneva have stalled and violence has scalated leading hundreds of thousands of syrian civilians to leave the country. to hey prepare a frame work layout peace, a boycott of the jewish state. i am bleased to have you back on this -- i am pleased to have you back on this program to talk about these issues and more. you said there are four things that happened in the last year that are worthy of us sort of taking a snapshot of. >> things that we were not anticipating. the first was the rise of the ore moderate face of iran, the ensuing rein detante. after years of disconnect. then we had the deal with syria, which in fact was keeping us in power, or in power over whatever part of the country it was controlling, in return for his chemical weapons. then we had the new call for sanctions of israeli settlement s that developed into a new conversation about boycotting israel following the death of nelson mandela and so on. which, ag

not only the chinese affiliates in the middle east but also middle eastern companies themselves.s something they are going to be expanding. million toome $600 middle eastern clients including qatar airways. ceo of the middle eastern area is saying they will be looking at dubai property. >> it has certainly made a comeback since the massive fall that they did suffer. >> there were a lot of investors in dubai as well. that is an interesting sub story. >> may be the first chinese bank to invest in that branch there. other people may be looking at this. do we have any idea whether others will follow them? >> other chinese banks, i would assume so. icbc will be opening the first chinese branch in saudi arabia. china is saudi arabia's number two trading partner. exact i don't know the figure but over five years from 2007 to 2012, trade was up about 188%. there is a need definitely not only for trade finance but for other forms of lending in that market. >> cheers, thanks for that. else get you over to what is going on. less than two months into 2014, global investors have pulled more m

and then you also mention secretary kissinger's work in the middle east. looking at bush the elder, does high regard also extend to his secretary of state, jim baker? and iovered jim baker, have very high regard for the job you did at secretary of state. yes. >> thank you very much. yes, please. >> my name is nicholas sorensen. i am an undergraduate at gw and am a great admirer of your column and report. i was here when ted koppel was the guest about the changing state of news, and i read the new york times a lot, and i am reading out to zero and bbc more synnex andading people writing for that group alone. that, likefeel about the business of fox news? >> we will do one question, because we have to keep going. >> one of the sites i go to -- people often ask me, hey, what do you read? of course, i get up in the morning and read the new york times first, and i read the new york times and the washington post and the financial journal, and i get up early, so some are not even there at my doorstep, but i also really enjoy real clear politics, because it gives

chaos in the middle east. challenges at home and abroad. but is the biggest threat to our national security something else? >> in a sense, climate change can now be considered the world's most fearsome weapon of mass destruction. >> on the left, van jones. on the right, newt gingrich. in the "crossfire" -- the adviser to the state department. and bill kristol, one of the president's harshest critics. is climate change the biggest threat we face? tonight on "crossfire." >>> welcome to "crossfire." i'm van jones is on the left. >> i'm newt gingrich on the right. in the "crossfire" tonight, two guests help us clarify john kerry's priorities. today a traditional secretary of state might have called a news conference to address at length the near civil war in the ukraine or the challenges we face in syria and iraq or iran's nuclear program. even the problems in venezuela. a real secretary of state would focus on the real world. instead we have a secretary of state who says the biggest threat we face is global warming. i want you to hear it again

sometimes in the middle east you have to think about these things a lot. and sometimes i may be a little bit too understanding of you, sometimes too disinterested. judge me over a period, but it's a tension. in a country like ours founded by people escaping religious freedom but also inspired by their own religious ethic, there is always going to be a tension between church and state. you hear in the state of the union when the president says god bless america and whatnot. as long as there is a tension, i have no problem with it. >> since 9/11, there has been a lot of tension certainly in this country and in other parts of the world as well. do you feel, as both a journalist and a citizen of this country, that since 9/11 you have lost any of your freedoms? >> gosh, i -- i don't feel that. but i do feel that, um, i feel that, and what i wrote about 9/11 at the time was i do believe it was one of the most, maybe the most dangerous challenge to our open society in this sense -- that what this generation of terrorists were doing were taking objects from our da

kerry and obama have done in the middle east has failed we do not want to be kerry's next year. we certainly do know what it used to be banished from gta in some areas cradle of the jewish people. until this political tsunami. john kerry has been asked about the mounting criticism of the long history of the officials regular citizens. he's brushed it off saying he had been attacked with real bullets in the past alluding to service in the vietnam war. he wasn't going to be intimidated by a few sharp words. while a flurry of renewed attention on anti semitism has recently appeared in the uk media due to the intricate style so it's made by footballer nicolas anelka a new report by jewish advisory body the community security trust shows that anti semitism is actually at an eight year low in britain. the organization which advises the u k's two hundred sixty thousand on safety issues says that the five hundred twenty nine reported anti semitic incidents last year was a drop of eighteen percent from two thousand twelve bcs team reckons the fall could be due to a lack of trigger events

we will do our best effort to make real substantial progress on the issue of peace in the middle east this is the strategy of palestine. this is the strategy of resident abbas. >> thank you so much for coming in to talk with us. all right, sports is up next. a champions league victory. paris has already put themselves in to the last -- this put them one up. but conversion, and then three minutes. that reduce them to 10. , and it is finished. >> it is a good game. we started well. after three minutes it was 1-0, and i think we controlled the game. 2, 3-0.er it was >> we played really well, scored goals. we did not concede. all in all it has been a great evening. too, sod four goals, that is a very good qualification. now we have to stay focused and do our best in the second match back in paris. play the second one the same likely played today , and we have a big advantage absolutely. let's see what happens in the second game. sources from an armitage in a teammate that he has given his marching orders, but he conversed with a spot kick. he said he could not take the chance to pass it.

not in the middle east somewhere. here. they have an active cyber capability designed to attack and disrupt and create acts of terror online. they have been i am implicated,r example, in the bombing of a jewish center in argentina. there is perhaps few, if any, countries in the world that more actively support terrorism than the government of iran. so this is what we're dealing with here. now, as a result of all of this, the international community, the united nations im-- through the united nations imposed sanctions, and not only did they impose sanctions, they imposed a requirement that they immediately suspend and stop all enrichment and reprocessing capabilities. you can imagine why the neighbors of iran are concerned. it's not just israel that's concerned. ask the saudis, ask the turks, ask any number of other countries in the region. recently, the president and this administration have begun to undertake conversations with iran about this program, and their hope is that we can get iran to a place where we can lock the

and the same in east europe, seaman middle east and so when. that key issue, ma let me give you a key issue. the key challenge we have in iraq, for example. when people say that the fate is there for the privilege of the dictator, for the wish and the desires of the dictator, and the needs of the dictator, not of ours, that means the people do not associate themselves with the state. so i would think including takes place, that's no longer the problem. if occupations take place, that's no longer the problem. i said okay, united states human occupied, sat down and tried to defend and we iraqis -- [inaudible] what happened is that people dislodged itself from the state. dislodge themselves from the society because they say this is not our wish. this is not our desires. we did not want this person to rule. wherever he wishes his for his, not for us. there's no benefit for us. the sanctions, which the u.n. imposed on iraq, was more detrimental to the social fabric of iraq and anything else. people associate with the united states with sanctions. no

but all of the challenges we faced were in europe, the middle east.cannot lose sight of our allies and friends that we've been with for so long in europe, the middle east and elsewhere. >> i know the president is going to saudi arabia next month. the saudis are pretty nervous right now about what's going on in their part of the world. this interim agreement with iran, for example, they're not very happy about it. the emirates, some of the other countries in the region -- the israelis certainly aren't thrilled by what's going on. they're pretty nervous. the prime minister of israel will be in washington next week to meet with the president, benjamin netanyahu. so how do you think they're going to react to this new strategic announcement? >> it's -- i think we're not going to lose our focus on what our friends in europe and the middle east were. that's not going to happen. how much we deploy, whether we're going to have a large naval presence off the coast of the red sea and elsewhere -- >> with a fifth fleet in the red sea or sixth fleet in the mediter

change it is a revolution against the old order so we have entered we in the arab world in the middle east. have entered already a new phase in the political life of this region that change is definitely against dictatorship and in private of democracy now the in egypt for example moving according to a road map with a constitution written and approved by the people by the majority of the people we are about to start another phase which is electing the new president and elected to parliament then. putting an end to the transitional period and go on and rebuilding the country so it needs time it's not a question of three years and you used the word legacy it is too early to talk about legacy it is a process on going process but in toto i believe that this is in paper of the future generations a revolution a firm stand against dictatorship it's interesting that you say that because your sound was cautiously optimistic assessment seems to be very different from the one that is often expressed by pro-democracy activists in edge of people like for example ahmed mahara who like many. prominent fi

the disconnect across the border but the middle east is changing. what should the part the and that? fortress andt be a try to isolate israel from whatever is happening across the region or should israel be more of? proactive? they did a better job of keeping world, nownow in the we have to play a part reaching with the palestinians. that?ey able to do that is the big question of israeli politics today. more likely now? other than he got the conversation going when everyone was just willing to say they would move on, is there now because you feel a little bit of -- >> prime minister netanyahu enjoys unbelievable political .ower >> that is the strong coalition he has? >> if it collapses under the strain of an american peace proposal, he has an alternative coalition ready to go. the parties are more than ready to get into a place, the right wingers. netanyahu holds all the cards. whatever deal he would bring to the israeli public, they would accept. >> is that right? >> if he puts it down the israeli public will accept it? >> because of his experience

your so mentioned secretary kissinger's work in the middle east.looking at bush the elder, does that high regard in respect also extend to his secretary of state jim baker? >> i covered jim baker. i was the diplomatic correspondent so i have high regard for the job he did as secretary of state. >> thank you very much. admirer of your olumn and writing. i was here for one session when ted copple was the guest about the changing state of news and i read "the new york times" a lot, i'm reading bbc to avoid reading cynics. how do you feel about how businesses like fox news and if our news -- >> one question please. >> all i can tell you is one of the sites i go -- people ask what do you read? i read "the new york times" first. wall ashington post," the treet journal financial times. and i really enjoy real career politics because it gives me a wide range and one of the questions international opinion. some a one-stop shop of so i really, i'm a news junky and i'm an opinion news junky so i love reading opinion and i love reading other people's opinion a
