. >> general scaparrotti, in an interview this month a secretary general at nato said that nato has to be ready to deploy forces and to intervene again if needed. do you agree with that statement and how likely is it going to be necessary for nato forces to intervene and what is your assessment of the capability of nato forces to do so? >> the purpose of the alliance is to provide a collected defense. and it has to go agile in its movement of forces. so i agree it has to be able to deploy forces throughout europe both as what is commonly seen as the threat on the eastern flank with russia, but also where necessary to assist allies in threats in the southern border to include terrorist threats, et cetera. i think nato is in a position today where we have capability, but obviously since the wale summit, we realize there has to be change in order to meet the new environment that we see this europe today. >> and we're not completely ready to meet that new environment as a may toe alliance, are we. >> no, sir, we're not. >> and the secretary general said this with regard to afghanistan. he

if you're in nato, then nato is for what? the mutual defense, but first line of defense is europe, and, you know, where is europe to stand up? i don't see that. >> broaden it out more. to you, lisa, isis. how do we fight isis? does the united states have to send 90% of the military might, bombs to fight isis? where are the other arab nations pitching in? >> well, and i think they should. look, i think military relationships, it's complicated, it's con that lewded, and, ultimately, the united states does what's in the best military interest. i agree to a agree with trump on the nato premise in the fact that, you know, people should be paying more, you know, in these sort of partnerships, and, too, you look at a relationship where, you know, a lot of people are questioning what is nato do, and looking at maybe reforming that relationship or reforming the importance of nato when nato was formed, obviously, after world war for to defend against the soviets and their aggressions, so -- >> things have changed. we have to have our p

nato alliance. but when it comes to energy and some of the other strategic vulnerabilities we see in a number of our nato allies, i look at energy as one of those key strategic vulnerabilities because of their dependence on russia. should we have policies as the u.s., nato, that would help drive some of our nato alliance members to develop further energy securities? a number of policies in europe would prohibit them from developing all of t

the concern is that russia might miscalculate and try to give nato a blow here because nato's eastern wing is not so well protected. the reason why we welcome increased allied presence here. critics say russia has already pushed too many literal boundaries, like in syria were under the guise of defending against isis, putin is really defending his out and american enemy bishara al-assad. he touted military success in syria, claiming russian warplanes have flown more than 10,000 combat missions since the air campaign began on september beend claims they have able to drive militants from 500 towns and villages. a veteran war correspondent spent years inside syria and spoke of the horrific side effects of russian intervention in her recent book, "the morning they came for us." janine: putin does have huge influence. definitely, he has put his mark on the area. he is responsible for a lot of what has happened in aleppo. scott: she contends russia's attacks on assad's opponents is further destabilizing the crisis affecting much of europe. janine: that is kind of maybe the bottom line, that

there is a desire on the part of georgia to be a member of nato. there is a commitment of nato to have georgia as a member. but we are not there. how does it look from george's perspective? and particularly, this continued uncertainty about the security status of a country like georgia, the same for moldova and ukraine, or of course, with a direct military presence on your territory of russia? how does it look? particularly how does it look in the short term as well as developments down the road? sergi: i can say that it doesn't look good is the short answer. i can talk about the four things that you can identify in georgia's position when it comes to security. also, the four things that you can get from these reports that are relevant. you mentioned them. i may have to repeat them, but i will be brief. there's certainly no need to change. simply because it is not the principle. it is about one country that violates those principles. most of the violations, the case of georgia, the occupation, the threat of annexation, use of force, threat of use o

that's nato. the president is looking forward to hosting them at the white house and paying the reportity he enjoyed last year. he is looking forward to a pretty busy day of meetings on a variety of issues. >> the brief questions. number one, you mentioned mr. trump and would chair special commission on terrorism and does he think that would be a good idea in terms of vetting people and letting those who have no threat to come in. they consider individual who is want to interior the country through the process. refugees regardless of the way that they worship. they are processed through a system that carefully vets their background and collects information from those individuals and in person interviews. that is then run througha databases maintained by law enforcement and the agencies and intelligence agencies. people who enter is subject to more than any other country. they ensured they are carefully adadhering to. >> the philippines elected a new president on monday. there is more talk with the

he wants to force the collapse of nato.ot something in front of him he doesn't like that's strengthening the alliance. >> we should point out this missile shield originally was supposed to be deployed back in 2009. president obama canceled it. it was part of the reset with russia. you believe that was a poor decision? >> well, yes. that was good decision at the time to put these missile defense in place. remember what happened unsolicited overt nature on the part of the obama administration to concede these missile batteries to russia with the thought and the hope i may add, that russia's ways would change and that was called foreign policy reset. that has blown up in our face. why? we have occupation of crimea, we have the occupation of eastern ukraine. we have the military intervention into syria. all of these organized by putin backing up the assad regime who has killed 400,000 people now and displaced over nine million people. genocide for sure in syria and putin has been behind that. that's the reset that we got with r

and he has said quote, if it breaks up nato, it breaks up nato. could you explain to donald trump what the value of nato is to the united states? >> well, it's actually a value that is highly estimated. that is to say since the start of the cold war we have had nato allies with us. we preserved the peace in europe. we've extended democracy and human rights eastward in europe and created a zone of stability, where there was no such stability before. so it makes the economy work globally, it's the foundation for everything else that happens really in the world. it's a foundation for agreements in the united nations to move forward on helping refugees. it's a foundation for the international monetary fund to assist nations in africa. it's the basis for -- i mean, you go on and on, you can't do any of these things without security and you can't have security if the united states and europe don't work together. and that's nato. >> general clark, thank you very much for your in sight tonight. appreciate it. >>> coming up next, in the war room, the donal

the object is forcing the collapse of nato. consider that as a victory as much as a collapse of the soviet. >> what is the strategy here? how do you deal with a guy like pooches? watch very much to keep these are in europe in his rome. obviously, the social world does not want that. how do you associate something here? >> so naÏve years ago. all of this aggressive behavior, we gave up the defensive missiles in eastern europe as a trade. we got an open and deal. what putin and the russian have always respected is strength, trish. the nato strength that was there with the soviet union heard this for 45 years. we did not have to fire a shot and may eventually collapse. we need to do more with from a strength perspective. what we are planning to have with just a token gesture, i think, in terms of stiffening nato's resolve, we have to demonstrate strength on the ground to putin that any attack there is actually going to get a significant response and it is not worth your time doing it. trish: a bully and you have to play tough with

you look at nato. so i was asked the question by an expert, i won't use his name, but i was asked a question by an expert about nato and, look, i've been in business, but i know a lot about nato and i have common sense. i said, here's the problem with nato. number one, it's obsolete because it wasn't designed for terror. it was soviet union which isn't there anymore but russia is plenty of threat. okay. but we have to redo it. the really big problem with nato, i told him this, you have 28 countries but many of the countries are not mpaying what they're supposed to be playing. they have to pay up. do, re, me, right? then we have japan, then we have germany, then we have saudi arabia. saudi arabia when the oil price was up, making a lot of money. saudi arabia was making $1 billion a day. why aren't they paying us? now, here's what happened. a very big diplomat, a very big person said, you know, donald -- >> we got to take a quick break here. we'll check back in on donald trump's rally going on live in ne

there is a desire on the part -- in georgia to be a member of nato. there is a commitment by nato to have georgia as a member. but we're not there. how -- how does it look from georgia's perspective and in this continued uncertainty of the continued status as a country like georgia and the same is true for moldova for the ukraine of course with a direct military presence on your territory of russia? how does it look and particularly how does it look in the short-term as well as the developments down the road? >> i can say that it doesn't look good, that is the sort answer. but then, the four things that -- that you can -- you can identify in georgia's position when it comes to the ukraine security, also the four things that you could also take from this report is irrelevant for georgia. and you mentioned some of them so i might repeat them but i'll be brief on those. the first one is that from the perspective, there is no need to change the health and services. it is not the principal. it is about one country who violates those principals and most of

nato's force generation conference is in june. and the nato summit in warsaw is in july.t stake is whether nato forces will remain in western and northern afghanistan or whether those areas will be seated to the influence of iran or criminal drug ring drug rings. it's up to the president of the united states to show that leadership. general robinson, the committee looks forward to hearing your assessment of the threatsst u.s. homeland tasked to defend, especially the development of missiles capable of carrying nuclear pay loads by russia, iran, and north korea. we'll be interested to hear your views on the importance of the u.s.-mexico security relationship. heroin largely produced in mexico, continues to ravage communities across our nation and demands a renewed effort to combat, discourage both in our streets and at its source. we must reckon with the mu fundamental drtruth. while it is clear that mexican government must do more within the borders, our government needs to finally get serious about border security. as former kouj come john kelly recently testified about

and nato, that would help nato applianceur members to develop further es? gy securiti because a number of policies in them from d prevent develop all of their energy resources not allowed by their governments and ngo actors and can the united states to do more to help them shore up this strategic vulnerability? on ou mean by way of taking their own restrictions? i don't know that we can do too much there. if those restrictions are imposed by their state, by i don't know if the united states can do much rather than through persuasion and diplomatic channels to try and get them to concentrate removing those bureaucrat impediments. that's all i know that we can do. a lot of n asked to -- us have been asked to sign a supporting the idea that the u.k. should not leave he european union, and as a former treasure of secretary and asked ry of state, i was to sign such a letter, and i declined, because if i were a minister over here or president f the united states over here, and foreign ministers of another country wrote me a letter toing, here's what you ought be

we have to give them the instruments for integration into nato. the second point is that we need u.s. stewardship. you cannot overestimate the importance. you need the u.s. for the security of europe, particularly when it comes to georgia. not only when it comes to sovereignty, but in terms of also upholding georgia's quest to join nato. when the united states does not do that, the countries and between, or caught in between as one of our friends said between nato and russia, suffer. the u.s. position is extremely important. one of the recommendations in the report of the panel is that we want to see the role of the united states be bigger in the ukrainian crisis. the u.s. is not part of normandy. that is a strong recommendation. i want to draw your attention to the case of georgia and the united states, the discussions. the problem with the intonation discussions is the low-level form. we have part of the founders of those discussions, a representative of the u.n. or do you have no high-level engagement from the united states or russia, or from t

you had nato members. -- and that was the end of the cold war. you had an arms control that extended to europe with the conference in europe. the vienna document. and on the nuclear front the intermediate -- intermittent nuclear force agreement. predictability and transparency that limited the risks of unexpected escalation. we see those frameworks, frankly, address today. -- at risk today. there has to be hard work to engage with russia on those issues. and know, we hear unfortunately the reality is in many cases you engage and you do not get the response. in our view, that is not a reason not to engage syria lets make it clear to our public opinion that -- not a reason not to engage. let's make it clear to our public opinion the structures that have kept the stability and peace in europe. there, i think, one has to be aware. i am a frenchman. i can see the fragility of public opinion in europe. you have a combination of some extreme left and extreme right that are quite happy if the united states in a way to send gauges. engages.ay this the maj

and the new nato commander.he general at the top of his a jebbeda will be pushing forward rotational borders to show them we'll not back down. u.s. ships and aircrafts were operating in international air space and every right to be be there. >> we were reporting about a nato build up in the baltic and poll land. and russia would put 30000 troops on the board. and so what is the solution there. again, we need to demonstrate to russia that we don't allow russia to decide whether or not there are u.s. troops in places like pop land andro mania and latvian and if we cede that territory to russia, we get to the second big accountive of putin to break the united states away from the alliance. and we need to put our troops there. and this is a long- term bad deal for russia because their economy is not strong. this will cost them and same strategy to bring down the wall. >> there is an editorial by michelle obama calling on companies to hire veterans. give them an opportunity to 90ed a mission at home. it is an importa

. >> spending 2% of their gdp on nato and on defense, so that nato is sufficiently strong and that nato remains the most successful security alliance in history, which i believe it has been. i don't think there is anything wrong with that at all. is as tomf the matter has said, the biggest challenge i think facing the country today, the biggest foreign-policy challenge or any challenges our economy. you cannot be strong economically, politically, democratically if you are not strong economically. in his first term president obama asked me and a couple of other people, what should be my number one priority? i have also been secretary of the treasury. i think the biggest priority ought to be the restoration of the economic strength. internationally if the economy doesn't remain strong. to the extent we bear an undue share of the burden. i don't think i'm wrong in saying more the burden ought to be shared. of course our foreign policy .hould always be informed i certainly believe it is not unreasonable. >> just to clarify. >> the monitor elements, but saying largely -- >> taking leadership

nato as nato has not been asked yet by the european countries. we favor that and there are reasons why nato as nato is more than the sum of the parts in them sure you appreciate that, so i think nato as nato could make a contribution discussed with the secretary-general right now. i will say with respect to the refugee crisis, the europeans have preference to use the european union and not nato as their chosen instrument for addressing the refugee crisis. that is their choice. so, they have not asked for nato to be a big part of that effort. we did take a step to assist when i was in brussels a few months ago to bring that turks, greeks and germans together to work some naval operations aimed at deterring smugglers from using the aegean to bring people from turkey to greece and i has had some excess-- success. they wanted the european union, not nato to address the refugee situation. >> thank you. >> thank you, mr. chairman. secretary carter, thank you for being here and thank you for your hard work. last week an advocacy group called protect our

this is to protect nato. this is a nato operation, not a u.s. operation. >> lieutenant, thank you so much for breaking it down for us. appreciate it, sir. >> an alleged sexual assault victim talked to cnn about why she felt pushed aside by baylor university. >> how i fail about baylor is like they failed me. wait. data just changed... now she's into disc sports. ah, no she's not. since when? since now. she's into tai chi. she found disc sports too stressful. hold on. let me ask you this... what's she gonna like six months from now? who do we have on aerial karate? steve. steve. steve. and alexis. uh, no. just steve. just steve. just steve. live business, powered by sap. when you run live, you run simple. this is claire in phoenix. yes!i help you? great. correct! ma'am. this isn't an automated computer... operator! ma'am. i'm here. i'm live. wait. you're real? yeah. with discover card, you can talk to a real person in the u.s. day or night. plus, we're not going to waste your time trying to sell you a bunch of other products you don't really need

nato is well worth every penny.s far as east asia goes, our alliances with japan and south korea, growing alliances elsewhere have not prevented every war or global war or trans-pacific war. alliances, horribly frustrates. we need them, the more the better. ashley: interesting. very quickly, 30 seconds, colonel, what would you tell donald trump if he was president how to deal with isis? we continue on daily basis to hear of their attacks in iraq now. what would you do to fight isis, what would you tell mr. trump? >> it would be hard advice for mr. trump to follow. it would be walk softly and carry a whack inch big stick. ashley: i think he might understand that. that is pretty simple. >> second half. ashley: but will he listen? that's the question. lt. colonel ralph peters as always great stuff. we appreciate it. >> thank you, ashley. ashley: let's look back at the dow. it has been a bit of a selloff. the dow off 181. this is the heat map. there is a lot of red on there. the only dow stocks up, intel leading up .1 o

we have nato and nato soft elements that are outmaneuvering with afghan forces. while the mission is not combat, they have found themselves in combat situations and have had to call for fire and others to help them out. >> how many u.s. troops are in hell monday right now? brigadier general cleveland: i don't have the specific number. the expeditionary capability is . mewhere 700 to 800 i don't have a head count of how many are in hell monday but the advisory capability is in the number of 700 to 800. >> how is this impacted both the taliban and your forces? brigadier general cleveland: too early to tell, but we are concerned about it as i think most know, the poppy crop is the engine that provides the money that fuels the taliban and some would argue that who doesn't have religious or military credentials, it was in the opium production and taxing of all that. with the good poppy crop, it is going to result in the taliban to be able to turn that into money for their efforts and almost take them further down the path of being focused on the narcotics trade and in

as far as nato, everyone knows the nato countries should pay more.dent has said that, they have agreed to it for many years. that is a legitimate point. but then, when you question the underlying premise of nato and? is nato really still relevant that is an invitation to aggression. keeping muslims out -- that statement. i haven't to be on cnn and the hour that he said that and wolf blitzer said -- what do you think? my immediate response was -- it is a gift to isis. al: you agree with general us?ray us -- petraei isis wants to drive a wedge between the peaceful muslim community and the west. to the extent that we alienate muslim communities here or are perceived to do so they say -- yes, look at what they are doing in america. you cannot trust them. al: if this is as polarizing a campaign as it looks like it will become it is there a market for an independent candidate? going to be so generous? sen. king: third parties are hard to start. it either takes a very charismatic leader or a burning issue. in 1856, you had the issue of slavery and then you

nato because nato's a creation of a cold war era that's done.at's in charge in western europe. the only communist government is in china. that doesn't affect nato. the problem that we have now is security. we have all of these problems with international terrorism and with radical islamic terrorism in western europe. he wants to look into an international organization that not only has nato's capabilities but that focuses on the real problems. >> okay. >> we'll have to leave that. we didn't get to the question which embarrassed donald trump, but we'll get to it last hour. >> i think we'll call this rountd a draw between you two. i think it's like round 15 between you and rob. >> rob, come back next hour. we'll take a short break. bill clinton campaigning for hillary clinton, but one question that seems to follow him and it dates back to the 1990s. >>> plus a woman in virginia wasn't happy in either presidential candidate. what she chose instead when we come back. real is touching a ray. amazing is moving like one. real is making new friends. ama

, want to be in nato, or are on the straddling the fence.dpoint they see this as hey you're trying to set up this shield so that our deterrent weapons won't be any good anymore. so they see it that way when really what they should be looking at is if the iranians emp europe and shut down europe they're a bigger problem than what the russians are thinking about right now. >> and having said that, the president, president obama moving forward with this plan, does he give nato the strength and defense system that it has always wanted but at some point we took it away? >> yes, what happened kelly, george w. bush administration wanted to put missiles in the czech republic in romania. now, there's a different system which is the same technology that's used in our navy destroyers and cruisers. it's the weapons system with spy one radar and sm 3 missiles which are capable of knocking down short range ballistic missiles. the two sites that we've been discussing here are the land based sites. there are four navy ddg 51 bert class defense ballistic mis

i think it is our desire not just through nato but other nato countries to provide forces as we well. so much for your insights. >> power outages, outdated technology, this is the state of america's train system. what is it going to take to fix it? that's up next. >> the salt is eating away at concrete. it is eating away at the rails. when you airbnb, you have your own home. so, live there. even if it's just for a night. that's why bud light haseves a new look... ...and we want to share it with everyone... jackpot! still the same refreshing bud light. with a new look. shoshow me more like this.e. show me "previously watched." what's recommended for me. x1 makes it easy to find what you love. call or go online and switch to x1. only with xfinity. >>> you're looking at pictures moments ago. the flooding in the suburbs of houston. the floodwater is rising. we know there is a lake in the area which could be contributing to this. at this point, we know there is no rain in the area. so far, this flooding has killed at least two people, three others are now missing. we're going to continue t

nato.l clear. britain's departure would weaken solidarity and the unity of the west as a whole. some who wish us to leave the eu hope the entire organization will unravel as a result. i find this extraordinary. how could it possibly be in our interest to risk the clock being turned back to an age of competing nationalisms in europe? and for britain of all countries to be responsible for triggering such a collapse would be an act of supreme irresponsibility, entirely out of character for us as a nation. others suggest that britain stalking out could lead to, and i quote, the democratic liberation of an entire continent. well, tell that to the poles, the czechs, and the baltic states which languished for so long behind the iron curtain. they cherish their liberty and their democracy. they see britain as the country that did more than any other to unlock their shackles and enable them to take their rightful place in the family of european nations. and frankly they view the prospect of britain

>> in what way because yes i just did respond. >> withdrawing from nato.apse. >> he wants america to quit paying for all the expenses and us basically being played the church. >> yif america stops funding nao nato disappears. >> i know what the state of the american economy is. i know americans want america to act like a country that is on top rather than getting whipped. >> when donald trump says the israelis i'm going to cut a deal and it will be a deal of a lifetime so -- >> they're not equal. >> you've spent a lot of time in israel. does that not worry you he has such a complete lack of knowledge about the region let alone a real connection to the state of israelial as it's dealing with threats. >> i didn't agree with him on that. i would rather have him because i think he's willing to learn about the big difference i don't think hillary has the capacity to change her mind. >> i've been involved with republican conservatives for decades. i'm sad to say the nominee is he'll be slightly less worse than the democratic nominee. >> i have to leave it there.

the most powerful military the world, we have the widest array of strategic alliances ranges from nato to icm. do we have problems? it indeed we do. do mystically, our economy continues to say, internationally we are losing some of the respect as a global leader that we have earned over the course of decades. as a current presidential election has demonstrated, americans are losing faith in institutions from washington to wall street that abated our advancement over the years. the same time, must a the world like china, brazil, india are catching up to us. that is largely because they have adopted or are adopting our paradigm free market. that should not therefore be viewed negatively in my view but as a positive trend because it is helping hundreds of millions of people rise from poverty. still, it is my view, notwithstanding the fact that we have slipped a little in recent years, that we should remain the world's p.m. and it leader for the foreseeable future. we should accept that responsibility and not shrink from it. if we do not exercise power, other people will. we are simply too

and nato allies. it is part of the defense umbrella that the west sees vital to protect eastern states from rogue states. but russia said it is a shield from itself. >> yeah, this installation and the entire missile defense should has been in the planning for years and could be more timely now. the installation unveiled in the central european country of romania and u.s. developed and nato run. and sitiated on an exsoviet military base. it was part of the anti- missile network that was aimed at knocking out the sky missiles from iran. iran continues to develop accurately and deadly missiles. this is what they said today. >> to protect allies from outside of the european upon area, the threat is real. many countries in nato's neighborhoods are seeking to require ballistic missiles. and so missile defense is essential to our common security. >> reporter: russia has long claimed that this defense shield was targeting russia itself. today president putin's spokesman said it is a direct threat and 1000 per

up nato, it breaks up nato. >> reporter: even the bedrock special relationship with great britain isbate after british prime minister david cameron criticized trump's call for a temporary ban on muslim immigration. >> it look like wiers not going to have a very good relationship. who knows? i hope to have a good relationship with him. but it'st sounds like he's not willing to address the problem, either. >> reporter: trump's meeting with kissinger was designed to calm some of the criticism of his ideas. >> it's a good sign that he's sitting down with foreign policy experts. and whether he'll have the same position next week as he seems to be developing now, we just don't know. >> mason: major, trump also released a list today of people he'd consider for openings on the supreme court. what you can tell bus that? >> reporter: 11 names, all drawn from the federal or state bench. conservatives reacted favorably. interestingly, one judge on the list, texas supreme court justice don willet, has been openly critical of trump. he tweeted this i had coup the day trump announced-- who would th

on the basis of that, eisenhower gets a new role, becomes the first military commander of nato forces and his viable job is to make these forces corporal and draw up plans for war, for how to conduct war in the conflict of the soviet union. not easy at all because you are dealing with so many variables that have been increased because the soviets have exploded nuclear devices. they have attracted some weapon buying. you can relatively easy make an atom bomb. what is clear is the american monopoly of nuclear weapons has ended and is ending, that the american monopoly of delivery systems is going to end very rapidly. the soviet is building long range bombers. the question is, what to do about this? eisenhower, in his last years spends a lot of time on military planning. he has opportunities to see the deficiencies, problems and opportunities posed by politics. eisenhower is a brilliant political general. the korean war is a coalition war because it is the united nations army, there are americans there, but there are also a lot of other people, the british, people from a whole host of ot

as far as nato, everybody knows the nato countries ought to pay more. the president has been saying that, we have been saying that. they have agreed to it. two% of gdp. >> they have been saying it for many years. i don't think that is-- i think that is a legitimate point. but then when you sort of question the underlying premise of nato, and is nato really still relevant, that's an invitation to aggression. another thing is the statements about keeping muslims out. that is-- i happen to be on cnn, the hour that he said that. and wolff blither said to me, what do you think. i hadn't had time to read up on it or anything. my immediate response was it's a gift to isis. >> do you agree with general petraeus that would make him more dangerous? >> there is no question whatsoever in my mind. that is exactly what isis wants. is to drive a wedge between the west and the peaceful muslim community that we have all over america and all over the west. they want to do that. they want to make this a war of civilization. and to the extent we alienate muslim communities
