it is a marginal place to grow rice. as one moves north, the available light and the important temperature that's necessary for growing rice is limited. in other words, the growing season is limited. japanese scientists had to invent hybrid rice seeds-- seedlings-- that would grow in this environment in order for tohoku to become "the rice bowl of japan." so we really see a huge intervention by people-- science and technology-- in order to... for this particular region to become the rice bowl that it is now. narrator: by mid-may, the long winter has finally ended and it is time to plant. kobayashi fukuzo is a farmer of recognized skill. at 71, he knows how unforgiving the weather can be. he worries constantly about what he should do to protect and raise his rice. mechanized agriculture allows an aging population to continue to farm. the fields are irrigated. irrigation is crucial. the rice seedlings depend on water, rather than soil, for much-needed nutrients. rice farmers in northeastern japan have a traditional enemy.

which is also pushing up the rice. new policy is set to take effect october 7th. in addition to pressures from thailand, hsbc also notes that there may also be growing demand for rice from japan. after the march 11 fukushima disaster, japan lost an estimated 1.5 million tons of rice because of radiation. so tokyo may step into the international market moving forward. and if rice prices continue to rise, exporters across the region may start hoarding their own stocks. we saw that in 2008, the world's second largeest rice exporter, restricted its exports instead of sending more to help boost supply. >> well, let's talk a little bit about those countries that might be a bit more resilient. you mentioned japan. it's fairly self-sufficient. and vietnam, second only to thailand in rice production. are there countries that will be insulated from rising prices and are there others that won't be? >> take a look. these countries in green are the self-sufficient ones in rice production. and they include china, india, pakistan, vi

reading the book, bill, the fun with rice, i think, and the relationship between rice and dick cheneyfor me it's about page 478, really into the book. but basically cheney thinks that they was quite naive in her dealings with north korea. remember at the end of the administration, condoleeza rice really wanted to make progress on this north korea denuclear rising deal and she wanted to get some progress there in north korea on the talks. and basically cheney says, look, that might be a lot of -- laudable goal, but in the end, north korea was not going to disarm and this was very naive thinking and at one point, the president looks to condoleeza rice and says, do we have any real progress here? these talks, what are they amounting to? and she said, well, we've made a step, basically. but it's just a preliminary step, which was kind of true. and then the president went to cheney shortly after and basically the vice president said, there is no progress and this isn't going to happen. >> bill: i don't think anybody objects to dick cheney disagreeing in policy with condoleeza rice or welco

condoleezza rice or richard clark?was the bush white house in spring and summer of 2001 responding quickly and appropriately to terrorist threats as condoleezza rice kept insisting or had they ignored them as dick clark kept insisting? philip zelikow took a particular interest in the work of that team. >> host: talk about the other things about this, because for those of us covering terrorism in the tail end of the 1990s when clinton was in office and the beginning of the next decade, there was a change in the way the white house prioritized terror in ranking foreign policy challenges. talk to is a little bit about how the change this to the question of clark's roll. wikipedia it is remarkably 18 if you look at the bush a administration you can level criticism of the bush administration for the way it dealt with terrorism. it didn't end the bin laden threat even though it had eight years to do it. dick clark during that time when he was counter-terrorism adviser to national security council have almost instant access t

i didn't mean to single out or pick on secretary rice at all.a lesson in i felt in terms of how you shouldn't proceed under those circumstances. the fact of the matter was the brits said it was a true statement. it was their statement, the president quoted the british. when they canned it and said yes this is true. saddam did had representatives that went to niger seeking yellow cake from their government. the problem was u once awe apologize for it, which is what happened in this case, it started a feeding frenzy. the press went wild. then there was the great manhunt to find who was responsible for putting those lines in the president's speech as though it was not true. it became part of the notion that somehow the president lied about what we found with respect to iraq. because that statement was in his state of the union speech. it was a true, accurate statement. >> sean: still to this day confirmed by british intelligence. >> never changed. in fed into the effort to -- this fed into the effort to claim that my office and/or others karl rove

. >>> of course, a lot of you guys in the limelight -- colin powell, condoleezza rice -- talking, this it bother you? 3. >> no, i'm glad members of my family are giving their version of what it was like to serve our country. i did the same thing. i put my version out there. eventually historians will over and draw objective conclusions. >> that was former president bush on "fox and friends" yesterday, and here's one of the examples of the family feuding he was talking about. this is former vice president cheney talking about condoleezza rice admitting allegedly that he'd been right about how to handle fallout from the infamous 16 words the president spoke about iraq and uranium in that state of the union address. >> she came into my office, sat down in the chair next to my desk and tearfully admitted, i had been right. was she crying? >> she was tearful. that's what i wrote. if i'd wanted to say she was crying, i would have said she was crying. >> you know that tearfully is a loaded description for powerful women in high office. it's going to be seen by a lot of people as provocative.

though, i'm not sure why he is picking on condoleezza rice in that way. i know condoleezza rice.r me to imagine her going tearfully to dick cheney about anything. that is hard for me to fathom. but i find it interesting that he is not just settling scores with his political opponents and the other party but with his fellow cabinet members in the administration. >> your column concludes having bush and cheney reappear as a reminder to step back and look at what obama is up against. you might want to cut him a little bit of slack. >> we have a big kerfuffle for a couple of days over whether the jobs speech is going to be on a wednesday or thursday. you know, it is a legitimate story. but we should just keep in mind, there's a larger context here. there is a situation that the president didn't just inherit, but a potential economic collapse, and we should keep that context in mind as we cover the day-to-day back and forth of politics. >> my hunch is that your column is a preview of coming attractions as to what we are hearing in the next cupping months. thank you eugene robinson. ha
