and oliver stone's son converts to islam. process that took him much less time than watching one of his father's movies. andy, my love. >> speaking of love, what did you do for valentine's day? >> what i always do, spend it with my tbrand parents watching movies. >> what did you watch? >> "fatal attraction,"" basic instinct" and "auto focus." >> you watched those with your grandparents? >> yes, and "tango in paris." >> these films are riddled with salacious sex scenes. >> i know. >> isn't it awkward watching that with your grand parents? >> they are fantastic movies. we do our best to tune out the sex parts. >> how? >> well, we each have our own thing. my nana reads allow -- allowed recipes from her rachel ray cook book and my grand dad prays and i stand in the corner facing the wall saying, i am not a bad boy. i am not a bad boy. >> that sounds awful. >> whatever, andy. if you are going to stand there and act like you and your tbrand parents don't like to watch steamy, erotic sexual thrillers together. >> we don't, joe. nobo

then i went to a of salvador where oliver stone and others romanticized the guerrilla movement. they were killing mayors in cold blood. there were guerrilla camps up in the mountains. women in fatigues would be serving coffee and grumbling that the guys were running the show. there is a black-and-white problem in the way we look at things. there is a polarization going on. you talk about having to strengthen over here. we have to guard against these guys. life is more complicated than that. >> i agree. a theme that runs through my book is many questions, not all answers. i do not think in black-and- white terms. here is a real power structure analysis. you need countervailing forces. we have had such one-sided power, corporate power. if you go back 50 years, you had labor, business, a government that was functioning, more of a balance. 1% may be too simplistic. a lot of 1%ers should not be vilified. you can be a 1% with the 99%. those you call out and hold accountable are those who want to cut taxes for the rich and no fair share who want to live in the privatized environment an

kind of quickly, you know, i thought oliver stone did a good job with nixon. i think that had a poet ick truth about nixon. i think that stands up. i think "jfk" was a travesty. they had a equal number of mistakes. >> michael, you i read quoted that howard zen's history of the united states represents a simplicity propaganda of american history. which startled me. not that i disagree. i was startled to see it. >> i have taken some flack for that from my left. quite a lot, actually. we will begin another discussion about a different kind of history. he was not really a journalist. >> and also not an historian? >> he was an historian who was trying or teaching a version of history to my mind was simplicity, but also romantic in a way which, i think, verges on almost falsehood. he used the term the 99% before that became popular. the 99% are always virtuous and right. somehow, they always keep losing to the 1%. he has, to my mind, are out moded and erroneous interpretations of the civil war which he sees in beardian terms as the northern industrial interests vanq

including my next guest now twenty seven year old sean stone is the son of the famous director oliver stone and sean made headlines recently over reports that he has converted to islam he was in iran earlier this month and joined me earlier today to explain why. well i would ask in terms of the polls that the american people are being asked about attacking iran preemptively or that's going with iraq i would say if that was it's just as easy to attack iran you know that's one thing but if that leads to world war three but you still are so sure that you want to do this and this is. also a ploy is to prevent or stop what i think as we are walking into world war three at the moment between syria being destabilized and iran its on its border being threatened by israel and america to me it's a very dangerous time and we don't recognize what the concert the consequences would be not only not only regionally but to the world because russia has stated that they don't want to see the overthrow of the syrian regime or the iranian regime because these are countries and it's backyard and basically on it

>> bill: personal story segment tonight, 27-year-old sean stone son of director oliver stone convertedlam in iran on valentine's day. younger stone film maker traveling to iran to produce a movie about a persian poet. we have no beef that you converted to islam. we applaud all people of conscience. your association with iran is interesting since that country is an enemy to america and many other countries in the world you started a discussion with colonel peters about the israelis maybe getting ready to attack iran. what say you? >> well, in the first place, i wouldn't say, you know, the conversion is an interesting word because i don't believe you can convert from one -- from the same god. from one god to the same god. i have also believed in the same judeo-christian god. misunderstanding of islam that islam is a different god. different name for the sam one. i accepted islam. i think it's an important move. also politically if you want to understand the history of this region because, you know, the persians have been muslim for going on, what 1400 years. they have many jews in iran a

. >>> controversy is director oliver stone's middle name.de headlines for turning to islam. he joins me now to explain. welcome. you have been taking a lot of flak for all of this. my first thought is what was your father's reaction as a jewish legendary hollywood producer when you told him you were converting to islam and doing it in iraq? be honest? >> honestly, i explained i feel like i am trying to create a dialogue in the clash of civilization. it's nonsense. we have heard this since the '90s. this conception jews, muslims and christians cannot live in harmony. i'm a jewish-christian-muslim. i want the dialogue with people all across the board. we don't need to fight each other based on the book. >> what did your father say to that? >> i'll be with you. >> really? >> yeah. >> your father said that? >> he was a great unifier of people. alexander went to greece from persia. he married greek and persians trying to incorporate the cultures and elevate mankind as a whole. i think he gets that. >> again, i come back to the fact your father is

look, i've covered the markets for decades and hate to burst your oliver stone thoughts, but i remember 1980 when they were losing a lot of money and merging with one another when prices were not high. back then we had a lot more oil and a lot less demand and now a lot more oil and an at lo more demand. all you need is a slight up tick in demand and you've got trouble. because this thing is not priced for perfection. the supply and demand, right now, we not more aggressively sought out more oil here, we're vulnerable getting more oil over there. which is why the chinese are more than happy taking from canada, the oil that we do not want from canada. the president says he's expanded production, he has. not nearly enough, which he knows. and far exceeds what he allows and now, even allowing for a slightly improving economy, the odds are slightly growing for a serious energy problem and iran threatening to blow up the middle east and you don't need to have much more than a middling student in math to figure this out. the math don't look good. and washington's math makes it look even worse

okay, oliver stone's son was on monday night, sean stone, he goes to iran and converts to islam but notlly because he says allah and the christian god are the same. i don't quite understand that but that's what he he says. he talks ahmadinejad and all these other gangsters and you say? >> first off, moss sell to nose zell to have on the conversion -- secondly i don't know who is he praying to now. >> yeah, it's confusing. >> when you hit your knees, kid, ask whoever you are talking to now let your old man -- ask him to make another good film because is he on a real bad streak here. >> bill: here is what confusing. he says a hail mary but he has to point toward mecca. mixed metaphors all over the place. >> how handsome could he be. i remember thinking he should be an actor. he has the square jaw. >> jond this sean penns cozying up to villains. >> michael said keep your enemies closer. he never said we had to spoon these guys. >> bill: bolder fresher shows. we have announcement. they are sold out in your hometown santa barbara. >> in chicago we're doing. >> bill: i will do all of that goi

traders will take a trend and we hear this oliver stone view, push it and split -- exploit it, is part of that going on in any of that going on? >>guest: absolutely not. what we are seeing, the market is reflecting what is going on in europe. we have countries all over europe that are desperately afraid they will not be able to get oil supplies in a few weeks. we have already seen iran cut off germany and other countries and france from oil supplies and others are convinced there will be a war not middle east and supplies in the strait of hormuz could be cut off so we see countries all overtime globe scrambling to secure supplies. if we bull back from the brink they will have a lot of oil they will not know what to do with. if there is a cut off of supply, they will have supplies for get us through the worst of times. >>neil: and what about the slow but study improvement in the global economy? certainly off the mat and that is increasing demand. >>guest: well, 30 percent of what we see in oil is the global economy. that is what is happening. the numbers today, whether you look at house

when oliver stone's movie came out in 1991, we had by 92 the john fnch f.ennedy assassinatn act where all available documentation came together but not this tape. and it turned out this tape was in the possession of the military aide of gen f john f. kennedy. the warren commission and the intelligence gathering mechanisms couldn't fi the tape but a dealer out of a book dealer an aquarium bookdealer out of philadelphia confined it. it's only going to open up a so-called case closed theory. and in this particular tape it raises some question about curtis lamay for example. one of the very significant as you know cold war figures who was angry about kennedy in cuba, thought we had really lost the showdown over the cuban missile crises because we cut a deal with the jupiter missiles in turkey. and lamay famesl wanted to use a nucleareapon if he had to win the cold war. here is on the tape lamay being injected for the first time in the drama and the hours after kennedy's death. >> charlie: let's set the record straight on a couple things. no one ever suggested l
