is this over -- done by rebels we assisted in overthrowing qaddafi? why did we ever help qaddafi? hillary clinton was asked for more security, he turned the she turned the ambassador down. under cross-examination, i asked her, did you read the cables? she said she never read any cables. she said, don't blame me, somebody beneath me should have been reading those cables. i find it a dereliction of duty, a clear dereliction of duty. she wants to blame it on somebody else. it is absolutely a responsibility, and her failure to revive the ambassador and his mission with advocate security should preclude hillary clinton from ever holding high office again. [applause] amidst the chaos in the middle east, we have always had one friend, a friend that never leaves our side, israel. as an ally, israel has never wavered. one thing you can know for sure and i visited there -- you will never see an israeli burning an american flag. america has never backed down from a fight, but we should never be a nation that is eager to get involved in a fight. the veterans i have talked to are not eager. wh

when criticized of his phrase of qaddafi, mandela hit back calling the administration arrogant.e time president george w. bush entered the white house mandela was out of office in south africa but still an annoyance to the bush administration. after president bush said the iraq war was about liberation mandela famously said was all he wanted was iraqi oil. now, however, the for nelson mandela the flags have been lowered to half-staff and a reminder that a string of u.s. leaders at some moments in time a subversive threat. vet often sometimes the administration treaded carefully with mandela. after the comments regarding the iraq war, h president bush said that he was a great leader but on iraq they have a disagreement. >> thank you. more than a thousand african-american brokers have won a multi million settlement against bank of merrill lynch, one of the largest race-discrime cases ever, john, i don't know if there is an appeal to come, but at this moment i would imagine the plaintiffs are pretty happy. >> reporter: they are ecstatic, tony. the main player, george mcreynolds, wh

that you shaking hands with qaddafi?ns out the funny machine making the clicking sound of a camera -- was a camera. what more fitting tribute could there be to nelson mandela, a man so dedicated to forgiveness he invited his oven captor to his inauguration than for our county to lose our (bleep) over a handshake. what else are you going to do at a funeral oh, yeah, how are you doing? boop.? [laughter] i know obama is not allowed to go boom because it's a terrorist fist the point is, the president behaved himself just fine. >> look at this the prime minister, the danish prime minister and president obama leaning in to take a selfie.

[cheers and applause] [cheers and applause] >> jon: my guest tonight an actress she has two great new movies out "her" and "american hustle". >> you have the account numbers. >> we meaning you and him? >> yeah, we did it. >> yeah me and that guy. >> she showed me. >> you showed him? our thing? yo

but also i'm sure you've heard for many years now there are allegations that qaddafi was sponsoring nicolas sarkozy's presidential campaign what do you say to that when people tell you something like that i don't want to hear about that. i mean it's. not interested in that i don't want to hear those kind of things and it's. i think it's a. but you said like it was you being a woman who actually persuaded him and probably that actually added to the negotiating process so after that with your success as negotiator. did that persuade you that you can actually play your own role in politics beyond that of first lady. not in politics the first reaction i had is to create my foundation because i receive a lot of e-mails and messages from all over the world the women of addition or n.g.o.s asking for help and they thought i could help because they have the will to do it and they trust me and i receive e-mails from all over the world of women really need asking me to give them a hand which i did i create my own foundation in united states which is a cecilia just foundation for women and it was like

you met with qaddafi.et they are doing something wrong. >> the people who brought in the property rights in the united states were along the 18th and 19th centuries. they see it is ease yesser. what we didn't realize is the fact that you can determine a piece of land went from thehere there you can do it with a movie script or an idea or an invention. once there was certainty of what owns what we started seeing that people trusted the bap per more than the object itself. if he found through the law ways of understanding it and recognizing it. on top of that you build all of the leverage or something. you wouldn't have gotten where you are today. >> property rights gave us the power to procesper. we will be right back. want to give your family more vitamins, omega 3s, and less saturated fat? it's eb. eggland's best eggs. better taste. better nutrition. better eggs. it's eb. yep. got all the cozies.

administration mandela praised cuba's communist dictator fidel castro and referred to libyan dictator muammar qaddafi as a friend. president bush said the iraq war was about liberation. mandela said all bush wanted was iraqi oil. now the flags in washington have been lowered to half-staff. the icon, whose legacy was at times considered a subversive threat. >> u.s. administration always seemed tread very carefully with mandela. and many officials who served as president throughout the years are even more delicate saying this is not the time to r relitigate those old conflicts. >> for more on the mood in south africa let's go to my colleague, mike hannah. he is in soweto, and it's great to sue you. how would you describe the mood on that street in that neighborhood this evening? >> well, it's a very strange mixture, tony. it's a deep sadness among many here. but there is also an insistence that there must be a celebration of his life. throughout the day here we have seen people dancing, singing, moving up and down. it's way past 1:00 in the morning local time. that there are still crowds gathered outsi

prosecuted the nato attacks on the troops and said some were as anti-american as they were anti--qaddafi. the obama administration initially did play a role. congressman mike rogers isn't buying it. >> there was some level of pre-planning. we know there. there were aspirations to conduct an attack by al qaeda and affiliates in lib yeah. we know that. the individuals on the ground talked about a planned tactical movement on the compound even this is the compound before they went to the amex. a -- annex. "the new york times" says it was an exhaustive investigation. >> reporter: four americans were killed in the attack including chris stevens. the obama administration was criticized by the republicans for turning down the request for additional security at the consulate though it is not clear then secretary of state clinton ever saw the request. the administration was also criticized for not sending troops once the attacks began. california democrat adam schiff is skeptical al qaeda played no part. >> i agree with mike however the intelligence indicates that al qaeda was involved. but will

qaddafi would have a different view of that, or mr. bin laden.be that as it may, that was yesterday, what have you done for me lately? [laughter] but the point is that my preference was always to resolve the issue diplomatically. and it turns out, lo and behold, that syria now is actually removing its chemical weapons that a few months ago it denied it even possessed, and has provided a comprehensive list, and they have already begun taking these weapons out of syria. and although that does not solve the tragic situation inside of syria, it turns out that removing those chemical weapons will make us safer and it will make israel safer, and it will make the syrian people safer, and it will make the region safer. and so i do not see military action as an end unto itself. military action is one tool that we have in a tool kit that includes diplomacy in achieving our goals, which is ultimately our security. and i think if you want to summarize the difference, in some ways, between myself and the prime minister on the geneva issue, i think what this c

i would remind you that in libya, actually, qaddafi was killed because of russia.if russia would veto a resolution, who knows what will happen? but it was no gratitude from the new power, the new government, and the first thing they said after overthrowing qaddafi, is russian and chinese company is not welcome in this country anymore. >> yes. >> thank you very much. dean of sais, yes. >> first of all, thank you very much for the very rich discussion. i wanted to ask in terms of russia's attitude where does oil fit in. we talk about iran, saudi arabia, even if you thought about the gas field in the eastern mediterranean and the way in which russia might look at europe, central asia, where does this strategic vision that you outline in a particular way, putin thinks about positioning russia has to do essentially with gas, or how does the energy resolution way into this discussion? >> from my point of you, would you have raised involves the ultimate refutation of the argument that russia can be a self isolated imperial power more or less within the geographical confin

2011 in libya, where she and three male colleagues at the "new york times" were held captive by pro- qaddafi forces for six days before being released. some times readers were outraged at the paper. "how could the 'new york times'"-- i'm quoting what you were reading-- "how could the 'new york times' let a woman go to a war zone?" you said you found that grossly offensive. >> i did find it really offensive. i still find it offensive today, because i think that this is my life. i have very set reasons for doing what i do, and i think that if i want to dedicate my life to covering war, that's my prerogative. why should my gender affect what i do? if i'm capable of doing the same job as a man, why should it matter if i'm a woman? >> brown: as to whether a this showcase of women photographers is in washington through march and then at venues across the country for the next three years. >> woodruff: you can see more of these arresting photos from all 11 photographers. that's on art beat. >> ifill: we'll be back shortly with a new study that shows young people are not buying into the affordable ca

and that included people like castro and arafat and qaddafi.also encouraged people to make up. and you know the other day i was talking to his daughter who said that the one word that they would like the whole world to think about if nothing else when they think about their father is forgiveness. so that was like a big deal, kind of madiba is an ancestor, would be smiling i think. now the next step is maybe problematic, but at least there was that. >> ifill: it was interesting to me to see the difference between the reaction the president received when he rose to speak, cheers and enthusiasm. and the reaction that president zuma when he rose to speak which were boos. what a contrast. >> they are two huge differences i think. both are sons of africa in the eyes of africans. president obama is very comfortable giving a speech, even if he's reading it, whether it's on a teleprompter or even a paper. and he clearly, it seems to me from having read a lot of his writing including his dreams from my father, i saw obama in that speech. and president zu

freedom from the qaddafi government. but what it turned out was they couldn't agree on freedom two. this is the berlin idea of what do you want to be free to do. some wanted to be free to be more islamist. some wanteding to free to be more sectarian. more shiite or sunni. and some wanted to be free to be more democratic. and that's the problem. there was no agreement -- >> rose: wanted to be free to be like everybody else. >> in that sense to be like citizens. so because of that that's why we've seen all these revolutions sort of stall, because there really was no consensus what they wanted to be free to. >> rose: and a lot of times the people wanting to war were not necessarily good or were interested in governance. >> exactly. we've learned that lesson time and again. that it's very difficult in these modern revolutions now where everyone's kind of equal to develop leadership. and one of the pieces i take away from this is how much leadership and the right kind of leadership in particular really matters. and that's a nelson mandela point. that you need these popular movements to s
