and he made it clear his greatest mistake, his greatest regret, was not intervening in rwanda to preventyou as a democrat, you seem like a moderate democrat, you're obviously not far left. where would you place the president? >> he's a left wing democrat with a philosophy of noninvolvement, noninterference. i think it's not even so much leading from behind, megyn, as it's not leading at all. ipg it's tragically wrong. >> it's spelled out in your new book. >> it is. >> all the best. >>> just ahead, she refused to renounce her christian faith, and now the young christian mother who once faced a sentence of 100 lashes and then death by hanging sits down with yours truly in her first interview since her release from prison. a preview of our "the kelly file" exclusive is next. plus, coming up on "hannity". >> we've seen the muslim brotherhood, hamas, hezbollah, al qaeda, now we see isis. they all want to rule the world. when fixed income experts work with equity experts who work with regional experts that's when expertise happens. mfs. because there is no expertise without collaboration. and

china, indonesia, rwanda and singapore today. how do we square that circle? what is the answer? are they outliers? that is one to choose from. the second 1 -- the secretary talked about the galvanizing effect a corruption can have added critical political moments in a country's trajectory, but what happens with the aftermath? and think of egypt in ukraine today where the glue seems to come on don and evaporate fairly quickly -- in certain college -- countries, not all. are we expecting too much? are we setting ourselves up for frustration and failure in the aftermath? that is the second choice. the third would be -- i would be curious for anybody to read given the dissonance in u.s. farm policy itself, in a number of countries -- this is sort of famous in afghanistan and iraq, but any countries where we spend a lot of money, time, or political capital pushing for is aparency, and yet it tool of the toolbox for intelligence agencies around the world, including our own. how do we square that circle? cia chief walks in with a briefcase of cash and says, don't forget, that is the wa

which never, ever fails to act, except in syria, also sudan, rwanda, bosnia, cambodia.at, forget i said anything. >>> too often we have failed to enforce international norms when it's inconvenient to do so. no god condones this terror, no grievance justifies these actions. united states of america will work to dismantle this network of death. >> network of death. you're going to be hearing that phrase a lot today. it is 1:00 p.m. on the east coast, 10:00 a.m. on the west. good to see you, everybody. here's what you need to know right now. breaking news just this moment. an isis splinter group in algeria appears to have beheaded a french hostage. france recently commented -- committed, rather, to helping with these air strikes against isis in iraq. perhaps retaliation for that. this news comes on the very same day that the president called on global leaders to show support for his fight against isis. he made that case late this morning in a high stakes address to united nations general assembly. launched five new air strikes against isis targets overnight. targeting figh

recently, the international community, including this house, was condemned for tolerating genocide in rwandad then tolerating genocide in sudan, and today, given the evidence of genocide particularly against the kurds in iraq, no wonder the british people are in support, not just of him, but of the motion before the house? >> i think my old friend speaks incredibly powerfully, and those examples are examples where many of us will feel that there was a case for intervention, which was not taken up. and these decisions are always incredibly difficult. but if we can help innocent people who are under threat of persecution, i think it is right to do so. i give way. >> my very humble friend is absolutely right in supporting this motion, but could i press him on what he called a row, and how it's perceived by people outside? this approach to international conflicts expresses concern amongst many people who have just seen thousands of innocent palestinians murdered while we stood on the sidelines. so can he commit to the house to show the same commitment and resources, to get a satisfactory conclus

we got kicked out, lost everything, came back to rwanda in 93. we came out okay, but unfortunately lost everything again. and that is when i felt like i wanted to and needed to do something. so i quit school, took a $50,000 loan. >> so $5,000 loan that you've now turned into a $1 billion enterprise. how did you do that along the way? >> african is such an opportunity. but we're looked at as a country and not a continent. you have to truly be local, but at the same time, operate in a global manner. it wasn't by design, it was by default, frankly, that i feel traveling sprying i.t. equipment. that gave me a deep understanding that all of our markets are so unique. we've all got our cultures, politics, parliaments, so it's all about the bet of lovely and the best of global. >> when you're dealing with that many lovely governments, that many parliaments, how are you able to jump from country to country and grow just as rapidly? >> thankly, that is the opportunity. sometimes we generalize. we look at the east african countries and we think having pres

cooperation from some of the surrounding african countries, uganda, came through, the president from rwanda, the president from congo, and our state department and others, and we were able to get them to have an appeal and as of today, she is now out of prison, she's back, she has her two children and her husband living in the united states. now, if it hadn't been for just seeing what meriam ibrahim was facing and knowing that was going on and seeing the beautiful picture of her and just a few of us finding out about it, she would be right now still hanging up for display. this is what's happening. at love people out there are saying, well, you know, isis is a very serious thing but this isn't our problem. yeah, it is. i can remember three months ago i made a statement that isis is a threat to our homeland and people just didn't believe that that was the case. and there is a poll that came out yesterday that i thought i had with me and i don't but the poll shows that 71% -- this is an abc poll, 71% of the american people believe that isis is a direct threat to the homeland of the united sta

much of southeast asia, rwanda and singapore today. so how do we square that? one is the answer, are there just allies in the international communities that live with that or not? the second, the assistant secretary talked about the galvanizing effect that corruption can have in moments in a country's trajectory. but what happens in the aftermath? look at egypt and ukraine today. that glue seems to come undone quickly in certain countries. how much can we rely on corruption as a driver for mass motivation for political change? are we setting ourselves up for kind of frustration and failure in the aftermath? so that's the second choice. the third would be, for anybody to sort of dig into the dissidents and foreign policy itself in a number of countries. this is made famous in afghanistan and iraq but in countries where we spend a lot of money tying political capital diplomatically pushing issues of transparency and yet bribery is a very key element in the tool box in agencies around the world including our own? how does that get square? ten minutes late ter c.i.

of people have been killed in the last 150 years. 200,000 people slaughtered in syria. 800,000 in rwanda in 100 days. tebs of millions in world war ii purely with nonnuclear weapons. i think we need to dramatically and unequivocally restore the focus to the human rights question. when his wife was touring the state diplomat one time in the '80s she would tell a story there was a huge map on the wall and one of the senior state department officials said with all due respect, you don't really expect us to relegate your husband's release to all of these important geostrategic challenges and she said what you don't understand is those issues won't be resolved until my husband is released. i think we're aware of the information. there are lists of hundreds and even thousands of political prisoners, but many people don't get the link between internal freedom and external peace, and just real quick about the issue of the letters to baghdadi. i think emboldening dissidents and speaking up for human rights also encouraging those movements inside of iran. there's nothing more fearful for a disside
