i'm just casting as persians. >> it could come back to bite him in a criminal conduct, absolutely. >>hat is going on in college and the nfl? i got a kick out of roger goodell, the nfl commissioner, to talk about core values with charlie strong, as he had the only idea to what amounted to values on a football team. nice p.r. >> right. >> but it does go to the problem, what in the world is going on in football? >> cha-ching. it's all about money. it is money. this is a kid who is incredibly talented. this is some of the issues that come up across the nation. when you have a problem with any of these players, there's a delay because there's money involved. there's so much money that comes to this. >> in georgia, they are nailing this kid, an incredible tailback from the university of georgia. they pulled him off the team, suspended him immediately because there were allegations he was getting paid for signing his name. i mean, come on. >> because there's money involved. >> ncaa makes a lot of money here. somebody needs to grow up, don't you think? >> but it's not going to happen until th

doesn't have to make a long generalny from the persian gulf? continuing those discussions with the turks right now about exactly how we will work together, specifically and operationally on this coalition. we are not always going to talk about those discussions publicly but they are ongoing. >> but there's no positive response from turkey on the use of their air bases yet, is that right? >> i just don't think we are going to get into those kind of operational details about the discussions or what we may or may not be doing. >> what about the new iraqi prime minister, hider al-abadi? he makes his first trip, i think his first trip abroad since becoming prime minister, goes to, of a owl places, iran. what message does that send? >> it is our understanding this is a part of regional visits that he will make to thing country, iran and iraq share a long border, this avenue long relationship. it is our understanding itth a routine visit with one of their neighbors and iran could take this opportunity make clear to the iraqis the prime minute should c

to juxtapose the persian gulf and rwanda is even more stark.addam hussein had shown he was capable of committing genocide on a large scale. there is another chapter in power we have not looked at yet that covers this. in the case of kuwait, there was political will. there were resources people wanted to protect. if you hurt the price of oil, we will get involved. i remember when the united states got involved, norman schwarzkopf would stand up there in his pentagon briefings and talk about the syrians are here, they involved all of these middle eastern and european countries. there was this broad coalition of people involved in this. it was legitimized. president bush is saying this is a new world order led by the united states. i think dallaire is coming at it from that perspective and saying this could have been done in rwanda, and none of this would have happened. one million people would still be alive, enjoying their families, and probably be on the road to democracy as a political system. >> the failure to act goes back to the stumbling a

launch air strikes, just that much closer rather than coming from gulf countries or the med or the persian >> meanwhile, we keep being told by the obama administration that baghdad is not in danger, despite the fact that they have sen sent apache helicopters and gun ships. how dire is the situation? >> well, you can't say it's not in danger because clearly it's in danger. if you have isis forces so close, as they are today and gaining more ground in that anbar province, the other question is, what are the chances of baghdad falling? i've spoken with a number of officials in recent days and they say not high because they have confidence in the units defending baghdad, more confidence than those protecting anbar. it has to put the city in danger. is it in danger of falling? i'm told today, no, it's not, because they have confidence of the units inside the city and rnd around the city. >> in syria right near the turkish border we've been hearing a lot about kobani being close to falling. 21 air strikes in the last two days over kobani. is there anything that we're hearing that might suggest t

as far as back last august similar numbers. 29 persian of people thought responding to things heard. people don't trust there is a strategy in place. rich, what is sort of interesting, not really the right word, but maybe disturbing is the right word is there is a lot of american attention on isis. if you listen to the prime minister when he spoke of netanyahu last week, he said that winning isis is winning the battle. it's not the war. would you ever let isis enrich uranium? it seems like all the attention has been shifted to isis. yet, we have got this much larger problem looming out there. what's the president's strategy for that? >> i think it's also very lacking in that regard. prime minister netanyahu has made a very compelling case in that way. i would say, greta, this poll and so many other indicators we have had, it speaks to the astonishing iraqishness of this issue, particularly ice s. i think president obama's strategies was in part driven by what was happening on the ground but in part was intended to catch up with public opinion. what this poll says he hasn't caught up
