the other other presidents this is this is what catalonia wanted to to agree on a point let's say as a least some of the smallest and point like let's do a referendum and see how many are. favor of how many are against the independence and but there's no way to convince moderate to sit on the table and negotiate and that's the problem and that's not only in this moment but also when we were negotiating the stages of autonomy when every thing began that say because of this . non-negotiable acting and the attitude of madrid because we did a lot of proposals but as madrid always says this is forbidden this doesn't fit into the into the constitution which is very questionable and not a lot of times but there wasn't and there on the other hand there was no political offer for the catalans the catalans lost completely their perspective with in madrid spain. yes but from from the technical questions we're talking about separation but what we really want is more autonomy has become its own the numb ik we're talking about separation and we want separation so this is the at least a huge part o

it was the other side. each and every attempt the other side has repeated a possibility for negotiation in yemen. we believe yemen requires a political solution. we believe syria requires a political solution. we believe none of these issues can be resolved militarily. we are prepared -- charlie: would you acknowledge you have a stronger presence in terms of iran or in terms of hezbollah on the ground in syria band, say, saudi arabia? >> i think they make the wrong choices. i am repeating that. they make the wrong choices and r presence ishei diminishing. our solution for yemen is cease-fire, humanitarian assistance. dialogue and elections so that we can have an inclusive government. this has been the case we have insisted on. same for syria. this is been on the table for four years, the solution is cease-fire. elections. why do you think so many countries question what iran's ambitions are in the region? >> i cannot judge why others are doing things. it has become fashionable in washington to blame iran fo

they are accusing each other. they are exposing each other who supported more the terrorists.f them did. who supported hezbollah in syria? join the syrian government in defending it? >> who prevented damascus, baghdad from falling into the hands of isis? charlie: i think president putin might say he did. >> president putin cannot say he did. we went to the support of the kurds. charlie: i have heard this before. that you heartant me when you continue to repeat the same allegations. [laughter] charlie: you continue to repeat the same points. >> i am making a historical point. i am asking you. i am challenging anybody who can wentnybody other than iran to prevent isis from taking over. all the person are vets -- peshmergas were leaving everything as isis was moving in. called us andani asked for our help and we went. inrlie: i assume you are favor of what he would like to do with respect to the referendum on the kurds having independence. as people who are friends of the kurds, we will remain eternal friends of the kurds. but we believe that was a major strategic mistake. we are

is right and that on the other hand. like hiding behind the constitution the whole time is not good policy that's also what i wrote is not a good policy he is lacking off empathy totally really i mean he was able to talk to the catalans doing years and he should have since two thousand and seven years to talk with them he didn't do this and now this escalated and came to this point. you know horrible. monique operates a lot of commentators have have questioned the legitimacy of the independence drive even in terms of international law how do you explain your case for the gita mysie for separatism you know it's completely legit event because we have this forward push from the grassroots so people are pushing forward it's not the government media say that a lot but it's not true so it's not the government that's leaving the independence movement of people pushing from from there are people pushing in the other direction to their accounts allowance push to get numbers or action to yes but that's why you wanted to have the r

it can inspire others. you've set a standard. you are speaking of quite properly so that those who are born even 1,000 years after you've been in the grave, they read about you, they understand your ideas and they're inspired by them and i'm sure there are characters in your life and my life surely that have been true, coming from ancient greece or rome or and wow, you really are inspired by the sacrifices he made, the insights he had and they continue. that's how you have in some sense eternal life, living through an idea because that doesn't have corporeal existence we have as human beings. >> and you're right on point. you're right on point because once we discover what is our real identity, not just simply human beings attempting to become spiritual, but spiritual beings who are practicing to become human and we find out what that purpose is in having been born, not unto ourselves, not for a very narcissistic or self-centered purpose but in reality living for the sake of others, that we leave a mark on humanity as bruce says

the other one is india. and i will soon be going to india. in fact, i will be going to india tomorrow. and number three, japan. and number four, russia. there's some work that needs to be done to make a coalition like that real. but that -- a coalition of those countries working together, not mandated that we have to do this and we have to sub ju gate ourselves, but instead seeking out cooperation with those countries where there's mutual benefit to do, we can make this a better world. we can secure our prosperity and secure the peace of our own country and the security of our own country. so with a vision and with a recognition of fundamental things like the right of self-determination and the right of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness that our founding fathers talked about, and limb en-- and limited government where they said government only derives its just powers from the consent of the governmented. let us champion these values and these ideals. let us have a vision for the future, as ronald reagan did, and we can make this a mo

they were here for four months, many of them didn't like each other and they had other businesses, other jobs to do, so they couldn't wait to go home. but about five days before the end, they had just about reached agreement on everything, one man, george mason from virginia, said, well, where's the bill of rights? we have no bill of rights in this. how can we have a constitution without a bill of rights? and they said, well, geez, we don't have time for that, and besides, we don't need a bill of rights. let the state constitutions give a bill of rights. and besides, we're not taking any rights away from anybody, so we don't need a bill of rights. there with a debate over that, but in the end, it was unanimously agreed, with the exception of george mason and two other people, that there would be no bill of rights. so the constitution was agreed to on september the 17th of 1787, and then they had to get it ratified. the agreement on ratification was very interesting. remember, the whole process of the constitutional convention was originally theoretically to be an amendment of the article

we didn't throw shoes at each other. everybody in the group -- and it wasn't a bilateral meeting because people need to be reminded this was not a bilateral deal. this was a multi-lateral agreement, and the meeting took place in the consultation room of the security council, where we started this process four years ago, as was just mentioned with secretary kelly, and it was a good reminder to everybody that this deal is not a treaty, it's not a bilateral agreement or a multi-lateral agreement which needs ratification by u.s. senate, but it is, in fact, a security council resolution, and we were sitting in the informal consultation room of the security council where these resolutions were worked out usually. this one was not worked out in that room. it was worked out during two years of tedious negotiations in vienna and, prior to that, ten years of basically posturing. i'm sorry to see that we are going back to the posturing, pre-negotiation posture. everybody in the room reminded secretary tillerson that this was a good

the money stays in other countries, invested other -- invested in other countries, and we want to bringt back. it is one of the few things. democrats want it and republicans want it. they both want it, and yet for years, they have not been able to do it. now, we are doing it. we are doing things. [applause] you know, it is one thing when we want health care, and they want health care, and there is a dispute. there is a broken system in d.c., but we are getting it fixed i think rather rapidly. you will be seeing that over the next few months. our current tax system makes us one of the few developed nations in the world to punish our companies when they bring wealth and earned overseas back into our country. we are punishing them for bringing the money back in. as a result, corporations have parked many trillions of dollars in foreign countries and many in have incorporated abroad in order to avoid a punitive tax system altogether, and some companies actually leave our country because they have so much money overseas, so much. it is an incredible amount. they move the company to get their

but on the other side of the table we have other external actors like russia, like the united arab emirates, like egypt, who are interested in doing other business. so the presence of these external actors has disrupted the democrats eyes asian of the country -- democrat ization of the country. and here we come to the second ,roblem, the regional problem by externalected actors, morocco, and algeria, on the other side, and egypt. the region, there is a lack of everything. so, the fact that we don't have a strong government, because dna is not a strong government, and a part of the country doesn't it has been a in everyor the economy possible way. becausesocial fabric, people in libya do not feel to be supported by the government and they feel absolutely alone. course, a complete absence of leadership, a political class that can take and can lead the country. good, let's have a say, class of politicians, we don't have a good economy, and on top of that we don't have security, eat all. and this issue is security takes issuethe third issue, big , which is the strategic one. so we have let's sa

we're ahead of any other nation.ast year, there were 67 million americans who volunteered to help other people in america. that came to 8 billion hours of work worth $184 billion. that's what volunteers did last year. this year they'll do lot more. that's about one out of five of total population of america. we'll see what the others do. habitat has agreed to fill 6000 houses in a devastated area. to do this all us habitat vos will raise $100 million. we've raised $20 million. we got a long way to go. this is a wonderful project and if you want to contribute, obviously -- you can remember this. 1-800-habitat. let's all work together and make america a greater volunteer nation. thank you very much. [applause] >> when president george h. w. bush was trying to persuade the congress to pass one of his endeavors the americans with disabilities act. he said, our problems are great but the heart of america is greater. that's what we're here to celebrate. we were all citizens even us, before we were politicians. after our ti

a man challenging other men or interrupting other men for sexism is not something evidence of a man weakness or softness, or something like that, or he's too politically correct. it is actually an illustration, or manifestation, of his strength and character and we do find it like that and we challenge men. we say, look, if you are silent in the face of your fellow men's abusive behaviors, or harassing behaviors, or other forms of interpersonal abuse, if you are silence, in a sense your silence is a form of complicity to the abuse. you want to be that guy? do you want to be the kind of just walks away or participates through your silence and in action, in the per peculation bass in the perpetuation of abuse or harassing behavior -- the perpetuation of abuse or harassing behavior? and i think man can respond to that. a lot of men, of course don't want to be part of a toxic system. they don't want women to experience it. they don't want themselves to experience it. a lot of men have experiences with women close to us who have themselves been victims and targets of harassment. we have many clos

parts of the world but this is still playing and other parts of the world. but the effect is his had so those reform efforts in saudi arabia in particular with never have happened if there is more energy on the market if there is shale will with a new business model makes it very hard for the oil markets to work in the same way so they come to terms it'll just have to survive and is just the new oil market world. they still a time and resources but the need for reform into have that opportunity. and it is imperative if it will survive. and there is a seriousness. >> and from the atlantic council. with that shale oil revolution g maun negative to attract? and to be very expensive?. >> so this is still an object of debate the natural gas is an easy substitute. salon that environmental side so unquestionably where renewable may have been seen as more attractive that makes it less so. with the renewable energy investment with very low natural gas prices those numbers are high. and then to a precipitous drop to attribute that to low-priced natural gas. it is just

he has other options we'll come back in a minute to the other options is as you called them that when you listen to the statements by particularly president donald trump do you just hear the voices of u.s. foreign policy or do you also hear the voices of allies of the united states in the region the israelis and the saudis who as you know are very unhappy as they say with iran's role regionally. i see both i see parts of. certain more hard line elements within the united states talking and i also see. those regional players who were used to a smokescreen of iran or the nuclear the in order to justify their own bad behavior their own disruptive policies policies that included violations of the rights of the palestinian people. trampling upon their most elemental right for for the past seventy years which has resulted in turmoil in our region. aggression against every country in the region by by israel a nuclear weapon policy that has continued to threaten not only the region but the global nonproliferation regime pursued again by israel and an unfortunate policy of supporting extremism

is not interested as a tool in what's going on here but i think it's a relief when the other in other planets not. even. countries day leave they say what they say all the time the same thing they repeat the same words that's on monday and for the other leaders so it's it's it's it's impossible to talk to them so i'm not going to be don't know what they did by triggering article one five five it was suicidal because as you can see there are millions of people defending catalinas right to independence what happened this saturday in the region of council on the a mania local authorities school defacto and a blow to democracy. we spoke to thomas hurrying to in a professor of liberian studies he says exerting this kind of pressure in a democratic country is illegitimate what is the role for democracy east or the twenty first century. i think the consensus on the catalan side is a very strong one and i can't imagine that the people who are rightfully elected in the september two thousand and fifteen elections going along with a new election after the government that they were elected to fo

only two others gave proper excuses one is sick and the other one had her car shot out and her driver shocked last night and that's the deputy chief justice and she's sorting that out but the other three it's really hard to explain how they didn't show up to the supreme court given that in order for them to have a majority at least five judges out of the seven need to sit so that was a very big question mark and a lot of opposition leaders and opposition supporters are questioning this and saying that this was orchestrated allegedly by the state but now this puts kenya in the same position where we don't know what's going to happen tomorrow and we have some voters who are saying they won't vote and they have some voters who are saying they will as this report suggests. on musher day or heroes day kenya celebrates those who fought for independence people from far and wide came last friday to nairobi's main park to listen to president hu who kenya his address the event is usually filled with pomp and color with children getting the most out of the entertainment but this year and easines

this process has led to other contractors and others not being on the island yet and the decision byith white fish has led to work being done on the island. >> sir, good faith questions are not necessarily conspiracy theories, especially when we are talking about large sums of money like $300 million. >> well, stephanie -- >> hold on, sir. this $300 million contract, how much bigger is it or the size of this contract, can you compare it to your next largest project that white fish has done? >> andy has worked on contracts and managed contracts between 250 -- 200 and $250 million. >> so this would be the largest? >> stephanie, you buy experience. that is why whitefish is there and whitefish is getting work done. that's all i'm saying. >> but this would be -- so you said you've done 200 to $250 million projects, not in puerto rico and you're saying this would be the biggest deal you've ever done? >> no, i am -- your question was the experience of contracts that size. andy has led contracts of that size. so the question of can you handle a contract of that size, the answer is yes, based

saturday, compared to other statistics in other countries with similar incomes, we are not. we are actually one of the most inefficient and ineffective health care systems in providing a healthy population overall. what we are good at, and what we are the best at is our medical technology. our ability to take care of very sick patients to keep them alive as long as we possibly can. that is what we are really good at. where we start to find our shortcoming is in the ability to keep healthy people healthy. host: patrick on the republican line. go ahead. caller: good morning. thank you for taking my call. even though i am republican, i have agreed with everything he has said. i do have a comment and i would like his response. in 2009, i work as a marketing program for a small group health care. it was for small companies between two and 50, and i had about 700 agents in 13 states who i called on a regular basis. they were involved in their most of themcause were small businesses in the area. in 2010, there was a forum in savanna, georgia, and the panel was made up of the leader

it is important for us to find ways of talking to each other to find ways of accommodating each other to find possibilities for addressing our differences through dialogue at dressing our grievances through. discussions and discourse rather than through accusations and taking. negative measures that at the end of the day the people of the region look at the situation in yemen people of yemen are paying a heavy price i do not believe that the aggression against them and the bombing of the yemenis the fact that seven hundred thousand yemeni people are suffering from colorado today i do not believe none of it is necessary and i do not believe any of it has any interest for saudi arabia or the united arab emirates i believe these countries need to look at what they have achieved over the past several years and see whether they're prepared to have to follow a different course of action and if they did it and will be a serious partner for them what do you think the gulf crisis has done to the region you as the islamic republic as as the islamic republic we have a record of. insisting on sta

that is not a blanket, that is a vigilant on the other, propping up assad and other things.when you look to the agreement, you have to look to the four pointers of it. whether or not there is compliance and whether or not at this point they have been negated. i think the point that i make, please forgive me, but i'd like to hear it, where north korea is in their capacity. they can get to whatever their head of government chooses to say but you are ascertaining that he is where he is even though the country is in the likelihood of his efforts, if you will. that would be helpful. >> with respect to the difference between iran and north korea, very quickly, we have to deal with every country and every threat in a unique situation that that threat exists in. so, approaching each one tailored to that threat is important. where north korea sets with their willingness and ability to attack the homeland today, using chemical weapons, the nuclear program, he has an ability to employ nuclear weapons today. it's a matter of where can he employ them and when and why would he employ them

that also works at other levels.however, would we still have a problem with this communicating even on the u.s. side but has magic capabilities such as they. when we have a certain country where certain nation, some people including decision-makers in the u.s. might think that means high probability means like the radar. i can tell you 99.9% probabili probability. i don't think it's ever going to be possible in cyberspace depending on the attributions you might get six euros 70%. but even if they are sitting on these machines it could still be in operation which is why it's so important somebody else is doing it and they are pretending to be that after. they are pretending to launch it. that's why it's so important that we develop a non- kinetic response an entity of the race o respond that don't involve cyber that's been a key development. i don't think we've made it clear things can go catastrophically wrong. one thing i'm concerned about that puts them against tv station i talked about which would be a vehicle to

crane and many other counties that are not part of the e.u. well aware mr buswell let me have them and they're all my question because when we talk about the european identity or the european values reach by the way while we're at the center of the ukrainian kong for a conflict i think we in russia at least we mean first and foremost the european union and the values the so-called european values that it sets out to promote you mentioned that europe is still searching for that identity but i don't think this is the kind of view that we get here in russia because we actually think many people think here in russia that the your europe is setting out to impose its values on the other countries. i don't think that europe or the e.u. is trying to impose its values it is indeed trying to promote its own set of values. and i think it is important you know way to bring together and to create this esprit de corps among europeans and you know when i think europeans can be proud of some specific and important achievement by the e.u. if you take for insta

you have to always think from the other perspective. the other one is be a scientist.re the act of experimentation and an almost playful sense is extremely important at go-jek and that is why we have been able to diversify so quickly. haslinda: you've been busy raising funds. the last fundraising came out to $550 million. you have also been acquiring indian tech startups. why india and why is india so important to your expansion? nadiem: i think now at the scale that we are right now, one of the largest companies in the world in terms of the number of users and the number and frequency of transactions. we have to ensure that our access to talent is the most optimal, so we actually have an r&d center in singapore, and we also have one in bangalore and in indonesia, and now we have to tap into a global pool of talent, so our acqui-hires in india were mission-critical in us being able to get talent that were exposed to doing things at a much bigger scale, right? because indian startups were doing things at a larger scale than other startups. but we are not just restrictin

or whatever other things we're. once a month this telescope which is one point twenty three meters in diameter is available for scientific tourism activity. is it that if we have the ability to remove the scientific operators from the telescope and replace it with an eyepiece . then our visitors can personally observe the models of the sky as seen from here in colorado. and. our main activity is research for science so the number of nights we can devote to this activity is certainly limited but it's something we're committed to that we're going to keep it going and there are circumstances a lot will expand and enhance it. in the evening the experience begins. i want to see what you see through a telescope at the false range of lenses you have i've heard the resolution is so high you can see the moons of your anus that's what i want to get on with. the special guests are invited into the scientists work spaces. we think this activity is more appropriate for people who have already had some previous experience with te

a big the other one got a little more it was more. more each time more autonomy each time more privileges each time sure this too when the catalans came then in two thousand and five more or less when they wanted a new one one they had reason to ask for it obviously spain had was a member of the european community so there were things to be discussed. like what is the role of moderates barcelona who gets what right and everything is a totally ok that you have to negotiate again but the system of everyone has to negotiate a single is not very good and the basque for example the province. school and the province of navarre they have special rights that the catalans asked for so like ok they they can they go to do we want to tax budget riots we want this too and so you have to talk about it because if you have some people have some rights and the others not obviously the other one will ask and say like hey that's not fair so one has to worry about it always depends on the circumstances and the from the perspective of the you're in union

this game this league and the us military were made for each other i don't think the n.f.l.pentagon or natural partners but i do think the n.f.l. the military kindred spirits i did a story in us a couple years ago about the lingo the bomb there's a sort of controlling your own ground protecting your turf the battlefield the quarterback is always the field general and there's all these sort of phrases that are militaristic that go into football and i spoke to several top generals and they all kind of spoke to the values that football kind of gives that is almost a training ground for soldiers there is a lot of potential for brands energy between the n.f.l. and the pentagon. really. this team offers a stage on which to you know perform it gives the pentagon this opportunity for real spectacle you know that of real life living celebration of what the defense department stands for it works both as a tool for. bryggman and also as a propaganda tool to solidify the american people support for the military and for american foreign policy an expansive american foreign policy more br

the other is regional. it is given by the absence of a strong government, always connected with the first problem. the third one, which is and the regional mess , there are other strategic problems. energy, terrorism, and competition. problem,to the first , we see many issues. we have internal divisions. we have no strong leadership. no public administration. no investments. results not only from 2011, but results from centuries of the history of the country. it is not a case that today we have all these problems. i promise i will be very quick. from the beginning of the libyan state, during the ottoman empire and the ottoman rule in libya. divided. role -- of the ottoman ruled. all the leaders who gave allegiance. when italians came during the ,eginning of the 20th century in 1912, they fought against the ottomans. end won the war, but in the they found out there was another enemy. they started a terrible counterinsurgency in the country that lasted until 1931 when the hero of the insurgents was caught and

and now it looks like other predators are circling. news came out this week that a small two-person company in whitefish, montana, somehow, some way got a no-bid $300 million contract to restore power in puerto rico from the island's power authority, the same thorough authority that refused the help of experienced electric companies who actually know how to turn back on the power. so how does something like this happen? well, it turns out that that little town in montana is the home to the new secretary of interior. and get ready because this isn't just the start. president trump and his billionaire cronies are going to use this disaster to enrich themselves. the whitefish power contract given to a friend of the secretary of interior, with two people employed at that company, it is just a scratch on the surface of what's to come. puerto rico has been getting screwed for decades. none of this is new. none of this is unpredictable. and if you want to think of this as just one centurylong string of rough luck, you're ignoring the last cri

powers customer -- other powers? thank you mr. lavrov: first of all we need , to ensure the current agreement is implement it in february of next year the date , when we need to see agreement both from russia and the united states. we the confirmation from both the russia and the u.s., and then we will continue to think about the next steps. i am convinced that dialogue between the russia and the u.s. on strategic stability will continue. i am also convinced it is quite difficult to imagine a situation where a new hypothetical, virtual round of talks on further reduction of nuclear arsenals can take place in a bilateral format. the figures reflected in the current agreement reach more than just the arsenals of u.s. and russia. >> thank you. thank you and good luck.

now the others have taken over. all other parties are saying they won't work with you.a. we are not going against the others because — for courses of principle, we are just focused on our programme. some are picking up our programme, of course we will support it. are you already talking to other parties? no, at the moment. i mean, the election is a week ago, at the moment, we are establishing u . so we are not yet in talks with other parties. but of course, we are proposing that programme, and we can see that they picked it up, we need an enquiry commission in the parliament. this has been picked up by the liberals, for example. it's the social democrats who came up with the idea to have a migration law, like canada has one. so we see that they are coming up with a programme. and if they come to the parliament with those ideas, we will of course support it, of course. now, alexander gauland, as i say, your co—leader, said, "the government should get ready for tough times, we will hound her" — angela merkel.

than in any other country. the drug industry pushes back and says that these price comparisons don't take into account the discounts that manufacturers give to insurers and other actors in the system. so to cut through that, i'd like to ask you some questions. let's use the drug adviar which is an asthma drug. it's produced this new york new york. it's a drug that's produced in the united states. ms. riley, what is the list price for advair in the united states and how does it compare to the cost in canada, france and germany? >> i honestly do not know the list price of advair off the top of my head. i'd have to get back to you on that. >> sure, sure, very understandable. i want to ask you the price of every drug, see how you do. a bloomberg news report from 2015 found that the list price for advair was $309.60 in the united states. accounting for, say, a 50% discount, then the price would be $154.80 which is still higher than the price in canada which in 2015 was $74.12. the price in germany which was $37.71.

i'll ask one other question, if i might. our friend and colleague from maryland former senator mckuls sky very pointedly asked me if we were to shift to a predominantly cash-based system of food assistance, wouldn't that undermine the coalition of groups? shippers, maritime unions, commodity groups that have historically advocated actively for title two in kind donations leading to a reduction in overall food aid assistance thus actually leading to fewer hungry people getting fed? would any of the three of you care to comment on that assertion? >> senator coons, it's certainly true that there's been an unusual alliance of shippers, fgos and a few millers processors over the years to support title two. this committee and the congress have advanced alternative mechanisms that prove much more eefficient. the emergency food security program in particular. if title two were to go away, and i am a fan of title two, but if it were to go away and there were to be augmentation of the efsp budgets were rewould see enhancement in the s

strike on the other. the official stated further that north korea exists to oppose the united states and that kim jong-un defines winning as staying in the game. it is against this background, the overriding survival of the kim regime and the military first policy that the north korean cyber threat must be considered and evaluated. in terms to ha s of the bottom front, the cyber threat is already here. it is persistent, ongoing and comes in various forms. the battlefield includes the traditional air, land, sea space, but increasingly cyberspace which is its own domain and transcends all the other domains. moving higher up the chain of conflict going beyond traditional computer network exploit and cyber crime to bigger and more destructive attacks. if so, what are the primary targets and how can we thwart the attacks? at the high end of the fret spectrum are nation states whose military and intelligence services are integrating computer network attack and exploit into their war fighting strategy and doctri

if she goes public, other employers, other men, will think, i goes public, other employers, other meners, other men, will think, i don't want her in my office and that is the problem. it is right down to the basic power in balance. and it doesn't matter how many confidential helplines you have. if that woman reports that abuse than those bosses know who is talking about them. we have to move on. thank you for coming on the show this morning. who is coming in, who is going out, this week meps voted to introduce entry and exit checks for people visiting the borderless schengen area outside of europe. it is to plug a gap in the eu border security and europol will use a database to identify terrorist and track criminal suspects. adam fleming reports from strasbourg. comings and goings at the parliament, this is all about entry and exit to the eu by nationals from non—eu countries. in the analogue era all you needed was a passport with a visa and some stamps in it. under the digital entry — exit system, there will be a joined—up database of system, there will be a joined—up data base of bi

is sanctioned other nations more firmly than north korea. it was only last year we had finally cumulatively sanctioned korean entities as sudan and zimbabwe. host: first call from nashville, tennessee. richard, you are on, go ahead. caller: good morning. my question is, and i have a quick comment. borders of k at the north korea, china, russia, you are your three big players, u.s., china and russia, everyone has special interest. if we went into a war, i'm oncerned american people don't realize what that entails. is groundlogy war, it troops, it will take that. i remember growing up as a to talk about d if the red chinese ever marched on america, we are in trouble. from different nations, whether the u.s., whether president trump or it ia or whatever, look at like this, it's a five-car stud poker game. has their interest, some are bluffing, some got the just trying tore hold on and see if they can get a better deal, a new car. got to look at, it's a poker game we're playing here. host: richard, thank you. yes, as secretary of defense mattis

what other information is at risk? what are the consequences to the american investing public and the american public generally? of course this breach took place under your predecessor. we recognize. that but the disclosure or the lack there of is all yours. how are main street investors supposed to have confidence that the s.e.c. can hold big companies accountable when the s.e.c. is not more immediately forthcoming. equifax violated the public's trust twice. first when it fail to secure the volumes of data it collects and profits from about america's financial lives and then a second time when it waited over a month to admit to the breach. how can you expect companies to do the right thing when your agency has not? we all have to earn the public's trust every day. right now the s.e.c. needs to do more. it needs to make sure companies that it regulates, that those companies do better. doing more doesn't end with cyber security. the s.e.c.'s investor protection mandate has never been more important. making sure main str

in other words, not after.at change things and for a legal case, how does that make those injured or the families of those killed have a better case or does it? >> it does and here's why. the huge issue of culpability hinging on for seeability. if the victims can show that this act was preventible, that means that the casino is on the hook then. the alleged six minutes that were in between a security guard being shot before the shooter started shooting in the crowd, depending on what other evidence comes to light, that is what can be the crux of this. that is also why here this is among the strongest of the lawsuits, these plaintiffs are filing, as we know, they have filed against a bump stock manufacturers, stephen paddock's estate, live nation, et cetera. all of those have different feasibilities. for this one, it's potentially strong. >> neil: randy, this is where i need your expertise, the former police lieutenant. reports would have had the wherewithal and certainly should have had the time to react to thi

emily: how does this fit in with all of the other -- does it fit in with the echo and other home-based all the devices are designed to sell you more stuff. this is another conduit of that system. people buying things and aving a security camera. they will also be selling a cloud subcrippings service. that is another way to make money. emily: how does this fit into the broader delivery efforts? amazon is trying to take on more of the delivery logistics problem. taking it away from ups and fedex. >> there is another element to it. amazon is getting more competition lately. there was a time when you could not think of anyone other than amazon, now there is walmart. they have a similar service and amazon is fighting back with a more integrated approach. the integration with smart locks and cloud camera tech as well. emily: what will you be watching as you head into the holidays? and all of this stuff converges at once? >> it will be interesting to see how the different companies create their platforms as a way to lock people into their ecosystem. it is going to be interesting to see if the

here are other stories making headlines. u.s.ecretary of state rex tillerson has renewed calls for the syrian president to step down. his comment came after a meeting in geneva with the u.n. syrian envoy. the envoy said the peace talks would resume at the end of november. new security measures applied to all passengers flying into the u.s. have come into effect. the enhanced screening will affect about 2000 flights a day and could include interviews and questionnaires. the measures replace an earlier ruling banning laptops on flights from several muslim countries. venezuela's former speaker of the national assembly, and the democratic opposition, have been awarded the european union's prize for human rights. the human -- the parliament said they wanted to award the current politicians and students fighting for freedom in the face of the country's repressive government. the german national peter steudtner and several other activists have been released on bail after spending months in a turkish prison. they were arrested and jailed

i would like to be able to share it with others. so not everyone has to go back and do the same thing i am doing because it's taken me so long to do it that i want others to benefit from it and have access to it so they can then, like move forward and do research with it, and then produce meaningful research studies from it and not have to spend a lot of time doing -- compiling and doing the research that i am doing, although i love it. i enjoy doing it but it does take a lot of time and energy to do. every site i go to, i learn something new. i've met a lot of great people doing it. visiting the structures and being inside of them is just a lot different than just seeing a picture of them. i'm also for the private properties that i'm going to, recently -- i mean i've always , discovered like interesting things about the buildings. but property owners are opening up to me and sharing things they have with me. so, for example, i just went to a site and the man there has coverlets, like blankets, from an enslavedfrom woman -- and they

so other parties can just simply ignore them on the other hand they can't react to every single provocation because that could boost the profile of the a if they aren't precisely shift these debates to the right and that's something that most of the other parties want to avoid so when we look at what the next few years will be like it will be certainly interesting to see on the one hand how the a if he performs it on the other hand how the other parties also react to those proposals by the f.t. ok this new type of debate is going to be taking place in a parliament that's ten percent bigger the last time around it's the biggest of any western democracy is this going to be a dysfunctional parliament considering simply the size well that's one possible view or divided parliament or rather dysfunctional parliament on the other hand there are those who say that the previous parliament where we only had the four parliamentary groups the two big groups that formed the grand coalition under two parties in opposition well the debates there were rather dull because the grand coalition had a clear maj

actually, there are other countries that have criticized unesco. for example, japan and others.rent: that brings it to you, tania. we are getting reports israel is following their lead and leaving unesco, why? tania: we understand the prime minister has plans to leave unesco and he has put out a statement, his officers put out a statement saying he instructed the foreign ministry to prepare to a draw from the organization, also because of what it perceives as anti-israeli bias. he welcomed trump's decision, calling it an ethical decision. this move comes after a long history of israel, of being deeply frustrated with unesco and the u.n. in general. it has been ongoing also percent unesco gave -- also ever since unesco gave -- since 2011. there was one resolution adopted last year by unesco over the what is for the jewish people called the temple -- or compound, and no mention of jewish ties in this resolution that has -- and that has angered the israelis and they have actually, they have suspended their cooperation with unesco. and also, this year there has been a declaration of

it, others are talking about it. what we are looking at is the big numbers in the last year are very favorable towards catalonia. we have big international investment is growing, also growing in 2017. and we have this independence movement from 2010. we don't really see the independence movement is affecting the international investment. what is of course clear is en are freeinessm to move their businesses. we think barcelona is a very attractive place to be. we are not going to see bigger movements in that sense. >> you buy into this? >> i am not so optimistic. athink, like maybe there is similar situation during the brexit, just before the brexit. greathing was going to be and fine. now everyone wakes up, there are problems. catalonia would not be a member like after 2-3 days. problems. where is the currency? a lot of problems not resolved. people who pledged for independence, separation, they to tell the people, do not worry, everything will be fine. and then you get into a situation that is worse. >> i am talking

others are luxurious apartment complexes. there is a traffic jam that makes new york city look like peoria. it used to be u.k. get somebody to take you across town and 15 north 20 minutes. now you have to go on the metro otherwise you will sit in traffic forever. time, peoples still looked the way they had looked in earlier years. like russians and somewhat drab close. you could walk down the street and tell who was a russian into was a foreigner by their shoes. if you were wearing jeans, you would likely be approached by people who wanted to buy them. now everything is for sale at hype prices. in gorbachev's years there were still lines at stores for luxury goods. now there are supermarkets. it is a modern world city. people travel. there is one thing you have to say for the putin regime. it is not a totalitarian regime. people can travel, they can see what they want within limited circles. there is one newspaper which gorbachev's people owns which speaks the truth without fear or favor. there is one radio station on which a
