in his book the eagle and lion, james birecounts the story of analyst ernie olney saying religion is important in iran, we have trouble on the horizon all the colleagues ridiculed him, mullah ernie was the name he earned. my question is how much in u.s. foreign policy as we saw in the attitude toward mubarak, hanging on too long and so forth, how much is u.s. foreign policy shaped by kind of widely shared secularism in the u.s. foreign policy establishment? a secularism that says religion is rational or relevant. how much that is true? >>> we'll try to make our answers a little briefer. there is -- elliott eluded to this -- there is a question of what is secularism. i once had a question with condee rice. i said do you consider yourself a secularist? she said, no, i'm a religious person. so what do we mean by secularism? elliott pointed out the french have a view, the state has to sit on to religion to make sure religion does not intrude into public life. there's a kind of sec u larkism i don't buy. i don't think our country buys. i think the best one is what was talked about in cair

the word on bahrain i mean that's where the geopolitical olney comes into it. how much is it value about the level of hypocrisy because people on the ground will say well you know if you lesions can have it you know the palestinians can't have it of course ok and then bahrain they can't have it as well i mean how how does this skew the whole him ocracy issue that the west talks about a one on one side of its mouth and then can use military force on the other side. i think there are some in the west that are pressing saudi arabia and bahrain to hold the elections but i think the problem is that too often things get simplified to say that democracy equals actions and really elections are just one of the last phases of to mark recy there has to be a support of civil society that respects the rule of law and that there are protections for nine already rights so you don't end up with tyranny of the majority. but in general. you know a situation like bahrain is difficult although it's much easier to or rectify if you consider that some of the protesters in bahrain wa

it impacts olney, texas. >> normally the exim bank is seen as a washington success story. last year the bank helped finance almost $33 billion in exports and returned a profit to taxpayers. why the controversy? that boils down to boeing versus delta. for a decade, the exim bank has helped boeing sell hundreds of planes at favorable lending rates to foreign airlines that compete with delta. the cost advantage, delta claim, helped those foreign carriers win more passengers and caused the loss of up to 7,500 u.s. jobs. six republican senators, including tom coburn of oklahoma, say the exim bank is bound by law to study the harm it does to other u.s. employers. >> this bill isn't going to move until we have some teeth that requires export-import bank to do what the law says, and they have flouted it, ignored it and don't care. >> exim officials deny any harm to dealta. they point out if foreign airlines didn't buy from boeing, they would have bought planes in europe. >> if it's bought by airbus instead of boeing, they may go that way for next ten years. that's the real risk. >
