. >> paul: welcome to "the journal editorial report," i'm paul gigot, that was secretary hagel on the war-like rhetoric and actions of north korea. those comments were made before the north korean army announced it was authorized to attack the united states. >> we will cop u.s. nuclear threat with a merciless nuclear attack and face the infiltration with a justified war. this is our military and people's unchangeable stance. the u.s. and followers should clearly know that everything is different in the era of respected kim jong-un. >> paul: those really are fighting words, but how serious a threat is it? let's ask wall street journal columnist and deputy editor dan henninging, matt comiskey and kim strassel. are we on the brink of war or it's a bluff? >> it's happened before and they've done the kind of threats. the thing about north korea, we don't know. we don't know much about who is running north korea, a new, 28, 29, 30-year-old leader in kim jong-un. >> paul: we don't know how old he is. >> exactly. and is he controlled by the generals. is he doing this to establish his own legi

>> paul: this week on the journal editorial report. new details about the boston bombing suspects new details. look how we can keep our city safe from home-grown terror. two federal agencies to heed warnings about tamerlan tsarnaev. have our anti-terror defense failed in the years since 9/11 and unraveling of obamacare continues. they announce a train wreck amid reports amongst congressional colleagues may exempt themselves. >> paul: welcome to the journal editorial report. i'm paul gigot as we continue to learn more about the two suspects in the boston marathon bombing. a clearer picture is emerging from tamerlan tsarnaev as a young man who increasingly radicalized while living in the u.s. something people warned is a new face of terror in america. he is the author of the 2007 nypd report, radicalization in the west, the home-grown threat. mitchell, welcome to the program. so the u.s. officials are describing the tamerlan tsarnaev as having under gone a self-radicalization. what does that mean to you? >> i think when they refer to sel

feel free. >> watching paul in the work release center was a little sad. he seemed like a fish out of water, and i could tell at that point he started to get nervous. you know, he had lived for 26 years in prison. he knew what to do there, and suddenly he looked like he was at a loss. >> am i anxious? yeah. is there knots in my stomach? yeah. i'm ready though. i have done everything i can over the last 26 years to be ready and now it's time for me to make the next step. >> the next time we checked in with paul, he'd been on work release for just over a month and had been allowed to leave the facility for limited periods of time. >> sergeant fitzpatrick on the evening had to make a few stops, and he kind of drove me around town. we stopped at a circuit city, so i got to check out a lot of the technological innovations over the past quarter century plus that i had no idea of, and i gravitated toward the huge tv with the surround sound, the real plush leather seats, and i'm like, yeah, i can get used to this. >> but paul would find challenges in even the most

what i have to give the pauls credit for, if you go to a ron paul rally back in the day when ron paulng for president and two to, let's say, a mitt romney rally, one of them was like going to the old folk's home. the romney rally, all of the people were very elderly. if you go to a ron paul rally, these are young people. >> most of them are stoned. >> i refuse to -- >> i'm sorry. >> what the pauls have been very smart about doing is realizing that ayn randism, libertarianism, has an appeal to younger conservatives. it tends to be where young conserve datives are. this idea of being on my own, having the government out of everything and drinking milk that isn't pattureized and all that stuff. >> rand paul is not a libertarian when it comes to social problems -- >> they believe about government out of everything except your womb. your womb, the government needs to get right in there. what ron paul failed to do is make his sort of wing of the party palatable to the mainstream. what he wants his son to do, a lot of people believe this is why ron paul didn't run as a libertarian, an indepe

paul is understandably exhausted. captain roy knows that no matter what plan he comes up with he'll need maximum effort from everybody involved, including 11-year-old paul. >> at the time, he was getting real sleepy, so i talked to him and asked, do you play baseball? he said, oh yeah. he perked up. i said, you know how you are out there and it is hot and you are tired and your coach wants to give you a little more physical effort and things to push yourself. and that actually kind of perked him up a bit more. >> captain roy runs through his options. none of the usual rescue techniques, pulley systems, drilling, powerful air vacs to separate rock seemed like they would work in this situation. and just then, it hits him. >> i thought of wesson oil, give him some lubrication. >> wesson oil, so he dispatches people, including paul's brother tommy, to come back with the popular vegetable oil. >> so we said, okay, we'll be right back. >> they returned within minutes passing the lubricant into the waiting hands of captain r

i think that this is true of jean paul gaultier's work. i know that have been friends for a very long time. it is my honor to introduce both suzy menkes, fashion editor of the international herald tribune, and mr. jean paul gaultier.

at least rand paul remembered. kind of. >> i'll give you one example, the first one of the african-american u.s. senators was a guy named -- blanking on his name from massachusetts. edwin brooks. >> no, nod edwin brooks. but edward brook. lesson nourm one, if you're planning to highlight the university where you're speaking a person who embodies the principles you're trying to prove that the republican party still stands for -- know his name. lesson number two, taking credit for something your party did 50 years ago is a weak argument, especially when it no longer applies and you yourself are only 50 years old. there are currently 44 african-american members of congress, one is a republican. rand paul took a shot at another historical reference, the founding of the naacp. >> i mean how many of you would have, if i would have said, who do you think the founders of the naacp are. do you think they were republicans or democrats, would everybody in here know they were all republicans? >> yes. all right. you know more t

so rand paul did this speech at howard.ched for him to give the speech where would he come out and say, you're coming from a different place than i'm coming from. here is something you and i can see eye to eye on. this is a disaster. putting black and brown people in prison at astonishing rates et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. he did that for a small part. i kind of jumped all over him. a lot of people got mad at me for that. what is your case for defending rand paul at howard? >> well, the man can defend himself at howard. i think it was an interesting speech. he did talk about these issues that are not only talked about by republican politicians but almost never talked about by democrats. it is not acted o on by democratic politicians. two drug war with, war, sentencing reform, and all this stuff. i think where he jerrored, he t to talk about republicans. as opposed to saying, i'm not your typical republican. i'm a libertarian republican, we do this a lot differently, and here is how. he was in a straight jacket there and

what does rand paul want out of this?t rand paul will not take the confrontational approach. if you remember at the time, mitt romney's goal in doing the speech to the naacp was he was trying to show the right he could punch back at african-americans and say the word obama care in their face. like that was kind of the idea. but that's not really what rand paul is trying to do. it's interesting because libertarians tend to have a better audience among younger people. on the one hand he's doing the typical i'm going to a college to talk about libertarian ideas to college students which usually kind of works more with the general audience, not a black audience. but from what i understand he's going to do the usual. school choice. he's going to talk about school choice. that's always the one they bring out. he's going to talk about some of the things younger people tend to be for like legalizing marijuana. those kind of things he thinks will get him an audience with those folks. >> do you worry given the high academic standar

i want to bring back in sunny hostin and paul callan on this.re is that first amendment right to associate with whomever you want to at that time and isn't that what this is all about down there? >> well, it is in the sense that you can be a member of an exclusive country club and have your own rules for admission. but the problem i have with this, we eliminated segregation in the early 1950s. why hasn't the board of education down there said we're sponsoring an official prom? instead, they are sanctioning this saying we're not going to have a prom, you do your own. and i think it's disgraceful in this day and age. they should step up to the plate and sponsor an official integrated prom and join the 21st century. >> and so sunny, again, i can't help but bring up this argument. as outrageous as it may seem to see a segregated prom in 2013, this is sort of a demonstration of our dearly protected rights. if i want to have a girl's book club with you, isn't that kind of the same deal? >> i think given the history of the south and given the history o

pope paul's new water supply, the acqua paola, or paul's water as it was called, was soon rushing intohe daylight from fountains all around the city. the finest of these fountains was designed by sculptor and architect, gian lorenzo bernini. it was built in the piazza navona which stood on foundations of an ancient stadium, a material expression of the idea of eternal rome. the city had survived 100 years of political and religious turmoil, of war and destruction. despite invasions of european monarchs who'd attempted to conquer the city on the pretext of defending it, it had preserved its independence. most important, the catholic church had survived the rise of protestantism and its challenge to rome's authority. it was an extraordinary period of expansion as european colonization and exploration took its influence to the farthest corners of the earth. this roman catholic renewal, which historians call the counter reformation, was given added purpose and vigor by a remarkable group of visionaries. the spanish mystic and philosopher teresa of avila insisted that everyone could experie

you can't blame that on paul b. newman, though. this is the tenth year paul has personally organized a blood drive in his san jose neighborhood. over the decade, paul guesses his drives have brought in needed donations to the stanford blood center from some 3,000 people. now, not by coincidence this is also the tenth anniversary of a terrifying rollover accident involving paul and his then 11-year-old son mitch. in fact, it was a question paul asked one of the paramedics who helped him that day that was the spark to everything that followed. >> i remember asking him, i said, you know what? what can somebody like me do to give back to the community like you guys do every day in your jobs? and absolutely in unison they both said, give blood as much as you can. >> now, because blood once it's donated is separated into three different products, paul likes to think that by donating just one pint you have contributed to saving three different lives. and if that isn't worth an hour of your time, what is? >>> speaking of worth, do you thin

that ron paul-rand paul group offers them at least some hope.you say the republican party probably will neve embrace the anti war aspect of the paul message, which is one of the things that's really directed to young people so there is a limit to the paulism for republicans. cenk: i agree with beth. i think it's real, and i think that, you know, we could totally disagree with it, joe but at least it's honest, you know, and it's intellectually honest, and it's not just brought to you by corporate america, which is what the republican has turned into. it would be an interesting debate, but ultimately, i doubt they'll go in that direction. we've got to take a break here. when we come back, we'll talk about the mitch mcconnell-ashley judd controversy, both sides accusing each other of breaking the law, who's young and who's right. obviously we settle it on "the young turks." >> is it fair game for you to question someone's mental health for their religion in a strategy session like that? cenk: you remember last week a controversy with mitch mcconnel
