a very troublesome thing, and it was really brought home when we were in a country like israel, or egypt, for that matter. but it's a two-edged sword, the separation of church and state. we'll talk about that quite a bit when we get to the social dimension, by the way. part of the problem is that people say, okay, separation of church and state, so religion is taken out of all the other activities in our daily life - the ethical system, we don't look at the ethical system in terms of business. we go to church on sunday, say, and then cheat our neighbor on monday - all these kinds of things, i think it creates a wonderful and fruitful feel for religious pluralism because we have separation of church and state. at the same time - and i really see this in the public schools - it can be a misunderstood message, because it's telling people that somehow religion is over here, it's a private thing. and a religion that isn't lived is worthless, really. i mean, well, it's not worthless, you can drive your vehicle to church and eat the bean supper, and go home. but it's a real problem, and i think

. >> before we get to the arab league, this is a different paradigm than either libya or egypt, the otherbya, you had concerted efforts through nato which brought down cad of afy and in egypt, you had the military stepping down which led to mubarak's failure. here you have full-fledged civil war, the military standing aside assad. internationally nothing happening. this could go on for weeks months almost indefinitely. >> i think it is going to grind on for some time. but that said, obviously you have the free syrian army and the opposition. they're gaining strength it seems to me. they're able to hold territory now in a city like aleppo, they're able to fight the regime to a draw. and the regime unfortunately continues to be able to maintain the support of the security services. that's going to be the key issue. at some point in time if the security services in the context of egypt the military needs to eventually determine that their best interest was not the same as mubarak's. at some point in time, we hope there will be a tipping point where the security service will make the same cal

but all of them under this vision of this change, in this case freeing at these young men or in egypt, changing the government, it is a movement that is accountable to the space that many people can come into. it is a movement that continued to struggle even after weeks, months, years of no one paying attention with the knowledge that one day can be -- one day if cannot be impossible. looking forward in media, albany to look at some of these heroes -- we need to look at some of these heroes that are not generally recognized. one of my heroes is ida b. wells. her voice is a story missing in the story of paternalism. she was a black woman from the south born shortly after the end of slavery who made it her mission to uncover the story of lynchings in the south and to spread the word around the country about the lynchings of especially young black men in the south. she was also on a segregated railcar in 1875 and refused to get up and was arrested years before our own roasa parks. she was an activist and a journalist. we are told this line of journalism that you cannot be both, that jour

units or is nobody's there's no tourism in egypt for months now and they have five billion dollars from the renting to suez canal and they have like four or five billion dollars from remittances from the gyptian workers who had this enormous gap where is the money coming from qatar cannot be for egypt's that's indefinite their house of south now they are horrified that in fact morsi when they ask for money from the house will sow to two it's really weeks ago said ok we're study the situation now there are steps and this means that now the muslim brotherhood and morsi s. president they are extremely powerful against a rearranged and we can shoot don't shoot digital to they don't have a response for the moment so i am betting in the long run date will let egypt cool apps in terms of being practically defaulting or broke or unable to pay its bills and then maybe later do agree arrange another egyptian military coup and go back to power and so coming from there you can see it coming from i mean so you kind of answered when asked question really i was going to

considered to be some of the aftershocks that you see floating through the region, whether in libya or egypt or not in syria, and after syria, lebanon and in jordan. after that, saudi arabia. this place is in motion in a way that it has not been for a century. we have an opportunity to shape that and it comes directly as a result of having invaded iraq. the decision was taken and now the opportunity in front of us is enormous to see it through all the way to the end. i think history will prove that it was a success. >> a provocative way to open it to questions from the audience. front and center. i was giving you the challenge to get the microphone there. >> until last ask this question, steve was a friend and colleague. if each of you would be willing to answer this question. if saddam and his sons were still in power, how would that have affected us through the last decade and the arab world? >> counterfactual history -- i think my answer comes from what i said a moment ago. i think we would have seen the place still locked in a stasis that would have been relieved coli by the natural pass

blind eye to the atrocities in bahrain and you know what they want is what anyone else wants like in egypt or tunisia i mean the brand of american democracy is undermined when you have hypocrisy like that. yeah and i think you highlight you know one of the tensions and soft power right in an era of global media transparency when international actors can monitor what you do those kinds of actions which i think are at cross purposes with other efforts to promote soft power really undermine efforts of soft power but i don't think this is actually unique to the united states and i think this also highlights a problem with soft power as a tool of statecraft you know we've talked about today about this the idea of using soft power to promote the society to promote culture right but it doesn't necessarily it's good but it's not really that useful very often in short term kinds of exercises. and in terms of achieving a specific foreign policy outcome on a very short timetable exchange programs long term public diplomacy the promotion of society through pop culture these all have i think positive outc

there any logic or design behind these up peoples is the world order of today the one that was expected with the end of the cold war and is the west a force for positive change. in egypt. or libya. to cross-talk the new world disorder i'm joined by ryan morel in new york he is the national security analyst of radical islam dot org and a fellow at the clarion phone also in new york we have george say movie he is a fellow at the global policy institute of the london metropolitan university and in austin we cross to alan cooperman he is an associate professor at the l.b.j. school of public affairs at the university of texas all right gentlemen crosstalk rosen if i can and you can jump in anytime you want a few days ago pat buchanan wrote an article that got a lot of attention he said what is driving the world today is sectarianism tribalism and nationalism and he talks about democracy which will mention later why and what do you think about that. i think it's very true you are seeing an increasing sectarian conflict in the middle east not just in syria but also between iran with the radical shiites and then the saudis the radical sunni's but there's also an ideological c

clashes which have a skule to dramatically since the ousting of hosni mubarak from power in egypt are just policy or has the latest for us now live well paula what's happening is signing. well in the early hours of this morning wayne's day egypt's military launched a civil air strikes in the northern peninsula and according to egyptian media at least twenty people have been killed there several spots were targeted and why this is significant is that this is the first time since nine hundred seventy three that the egyptian air force has operated in the sinai peninsula it certainly is indicative of an increased militant activity there that such efforts are being employed such desperate efforts it does follow involved by cairo that it would crack down on what is called the infidels operation in the sinai peninsula it follows a deadly attack on sunday night in which sixteen egypt soldiers were killed and just last night tuesday there were at least three incidents at joint border crossings boy and a joint checkpoints between egyptian soldiers and egyptian police now ever since the former egyptian preside

or from syria to egypt now let's turn our focus there it's where the egyptian president mohamed morsi this week ordered the country's top two military officials to stand down the defense minister and chief of staff were told to go during a major offensive that's underway in the country's restive sinai region that's the problem we israeli border egypt's recently elected leader who's embroiled in a power struggle with the military council to restore security in sinai but the region's only seen more lawlessness since president mubarak was ousted with al qaida groups targeting security forces and arms being smuggled from libya investigative journalist pepe escobar says morsi is move could spark of backlash from the military the caput tension we end up in a coup. we should expect some say to happen not immediately in terms of a counter cool by scott because digital they still there even if their prerogative in terms of that constitutional amendment which transfer of powers from the presidents to them no more civil why did that completely damie have some cards to play in those for a get ver

the qataris one in a confrontational approach egypt proposed no we have a contact group with us egypt or us saudis qataris and the erroneous and we're going to talk about a possible solution for syria this is what it's all of this is this is how to implement diplomacy works at the highest levels we have to find a solution involving the main partners in the region in a solution that will save face for everybody i absolutely think it is a little thing iran says it has a comprehensive peace plan for the conflict in syria which will be presented during the summit so how effective will that be and will the international community welcome this afferent in your opinion well the international community is the real one which is present the interactions they make the problem is that people who think that they are the international community this means washington and london and paris and riyadh as well which by the way is represented by the saudi deputy foreign minister in tehran the problem is a dilute coal partners. they cannot arrive at a solution the problem is there may be people who are inter

will see a natural rebellion if it occurs like it's ongoing in iraq like is ongoing in syria and egypt. or either let's go into the r.t. world update now we'll start with the egyptian president mohamed morsi he will be visiting iran for a summit at the end of the month it is the first trip there by an egyptian leader since relations with tehran broke down decades ago the invitation was delivered earlier this month by iran's vice president the first high ranking official to visit egypt in years cairo and tehran have not had full diplomatic relations since one nine hundred eighty following iran's islamic revolution and his recognition of israel. the u.s. military top general martin dempsey has arrived in afghanistan for a meeting with senior afghan officials over a recent wave of so-called friendly fire attacks against international forces in the latest on sunday to afghan policeman turned their weapons on u.s. troops on the border with pakistan killing one ten u.s. soldiers have died in such incidents in just the past two weeks. the wife of a former chinese communist politician has been giv

. >> real quick, how can american investors invest in the middle east or even just egypt, and specificallystries or sectors? >> several. the financial sector, the energy sector, the engineering sector, because there is a huge number of different industries that are building up, especially in areas that are serving infrastructure development, airports, roads. all that, i believe, presents a unique opportunity and my serious thinking also is not only the financial investment that is required, it's the expertise. because the capital exists in the middle east and can be utilized in partnership with the expertise that may come from the west. >> it was a pleasure to have you on the show. hopefully we'll see you in the studio next time. >> i look forward to it, brian. thank you. thank you, mandy. >> thank you very much. >>> a huge drop in netgas today. sharon epperson is joining us. >> it looks like the biggest drop for natural gas. this big drop after the energy department reported a bigger than expected increase in storage levels. now, storage levels are still increasing by far less than they d

egypt? is there cooperation over something like this? or does it possibly lead to new tensions? sarily need to lead to new tensions. in fact, the israelis applauded the egyptian government's penalty strikes in sinai. in fact, both egypt and israel and, interestingly enough, hamas, has an interest in security in sinai, and it not being a place where extremists are attacking egyptian forces or israelis and so on. so this could potentially, if the stars align, lead to some kind of cooperation among, at least the egyptians and israelis, and maybe even the egyptians and the palestinians. >> brown: in the meantime, it's correct to see, as nancy was saying, this all sort of fits into larger problems in egypt over security and all kinds of things. >> right. the two most pressing concerns in egypt right now are the economy and security, not necessarily in that order. and in fact, morsey has pledged to concentrate on those and other things in his first 100 days. this is the first major test of his presidenciy, and we'll see by determining how effective he is at controlling security and bri

egypt is concerned. it's disappointed because of the political chain or some -- change for the better. i see egypt has chance. one thing which i was in turkey last year and i was spending time at the turkish leadership and they were telling me dc going to -- [inaudible] the muslim brotherhood in turkey would come to ask forked advice remember a decade ago the fear in turkey too that turkey would go down the fundamentalist way. and yet they focus very much on economic reform and set aside some of the hard line [inaudible] agenda. so i do see that egypt is a mess now because of, you know, couple of -- enabling but if you were -- [inaudible] in the year 2010. say now we are look at and still an optimistic road map for like egypt if it goes down the turkish way and sorts take the advice from the party despite the criticism that -- because because a decade ago the same fears exist the about tour koa. i think that point that he made that if turkey and indonesia emerge as "breakout nations." there are fief -- join they are the next two one which is is what my forecast is that we baffle -- [ina

you know better than the defense minister of israel whether obama has been good to israel or not. and egyptdemocracy which i thought you guys were in favor of when you invaded iraq. >> there was a great pro pro-democracy movement in iran in 2009. except this was a pro-democracy movement that was pro america. obama said let's stay out. let's let the iranians solve their own problems. why does he overthrow mubarak. i'm suggesting that obama wants to reduce america's footprint on the world because he thinks that we're stepping on the world. >> cenk: where do you get that from? let me show a chart of spending that we do on aid across the world. one of your thesis in your book is we give so much money than the rest of the world and we're down sizing america. in reality. here is spending afghanistan iraq and israel the top three recipients. then the rest is a pi pittance. we spend incredibly small amount of money in foreign aid, and most of it goes to the countries that we've either invaded or allies with military aid. how do we help the rest of the world with our generous aid. >> first of all ne
