according to a report, oil producers are and what the call secret talks with other nations to stop using the u.s. dollar to buy and sell oil. right now, when companies or countries purchase oil from places like saudi arabia, they do it using dollars. it is the standard everybody uses. but according to the " independent," several countries want to put an end to that, if paying for oil using a basket of currencies, including the euro, the japanese yen, chinese currency, and gold. under the current system, these nations all rely on the dollar to purchase crude. if they all switchover, those places will not need the dollar, meaning that our currency would certainly lose value. oil-producing nations are denying this report vehemently, insisting there have been no such talks about replacing the dollar. it is worth noting that the report alone sent the value of the dollar plummeting, leading investors to stock up on gold instead, and the price for an ounce of gold hit a record, above $1,000. at $1,041.90 today. stocks also soared on the hope that a weaker dollar would boost profits overseas. australia

u.s. and five other nations will meet with iran to discuss its nuclear program. the meeting is taking place in geneva, switzerland, nearly a week after officials revealed that iran is building a secret nuclear facility. iran did not seem phased by that announcement and test fired missiles this past weekend. if president ahmadinejad is also defending his country's nuclear rights. meanwhile, chief u.s. negotiator today says he's encouraged by president obama's strategy with iran. >> he's played a very smart strategic game of putting the iranians into a position where they have to change. >> the state department says that president obama plans to take a few months to assess the situation before decidina strategy with iran. >> a separate u.s. delegation is in copenhagen, denmark, today, with a very different goal in mind. that goal is bringing the 2016 summer olympics to chicago. president obama is joining that lobbying effort and kristen dahlgren is live in chicago this morning, a city that is holding its breath the day before the international olympic committee awards someone those 2016 games. good morning, kristen. >> reporter: good morning, joe. yeah, just over one day to go. it's a

they claim that arab states have launched secret moves with china, russia and france to stop using u.s. currency for oil trading. they plan, instead, to move towards a basket of currencies. oh. that sounds inclusive, doesn't it? i mean, are there isn't witches in it. the basket includes the euro, the pound, the sterling, the canadian dollar, the sweetdish crown and the french franc. there seems to be something missing there. what do you say? just so you know, the saudi central bank governor denies the secret talks took place. in fact, they said "at this time there is absolutely no reason to move away from the dollar. we have no plans." uh-huh, uh-huh. so i'm sure we can all assume that the dollar is here to stay, and everything is just peachy. but in the off chance that maybe somebody in the middle east wouldn't tell us exactly the truth, you know, that they're not 100% reliable, maybe we should discover what it means for our dollar and our country if it's no longer pegged to oil. what does that mean for you? well, everybody -- let me show you this. a long time ago, back after the worl

u.s. dollar falling this morning after one of the most pro found financial changes in recent middle east history. arab states have been in secret talks, apparently to drop u.s. currency from the oil trade using the euro, gold, and japanese yen to buy and sell oil instead. the move would take nine years to implement. u.s. officials, of course, vowing to fight it. steve: meanwhile, the nuclear threat from north korea growing this morning. new reports from south korea claim the north is in final stages of restoring its nuclear plant. restoring them! this is something kim jong il promised to do back in april after the u.n. condemned the communist regime's launch of a long-range rocket. north korea said that launch was a peaceful attempt to put a little space satellite into orbit. that's all. brian: erin andrews may not be the only victim of an accused peeping tom. yes, prosecutors say michael barrett taped a number of women in their hotel rooms and posted them online. barrett free on bond but barred from using the internet while under house arrest. that's a safe bet. he's also been suspended from his insurance job. he's got an ankl

of the disclosure last week about a previously secret iranian uranium enrichment plant, many of the other countries at the negotiating table tomorrow, the u.s., britain, france, germany, china and russia, are already contemplating new and tighter sanctions on tehran, a clear signal that hopes for the meeting's success are low. the talks in switzerland will be closely monitored in israel. earlier this week, the iranians test-fired missiles capable of reaching israel. and ahmadinejad has repeatedly questioned israel's right to exist. ephraim kam closely follows iran. >> i believe there's nobody in israel, in europe or the states that are hopeful or optimistic about the talks that are going to start tomorrow. they're trying to gain time in order to make further progress on their nuclear program. and then is a tactic. >> for years the israeli government has warned that iran was not being honest about the size and nature of its nuclear program and has held out the possibility of military action against iran's nuclear facilities. but for now, israel is prepared to let other countries take the lead in confronting iran, hoping the threat of harsher

secret. the country claims the production is for peaceful purposes, but the u.s. allies say iran is trying indeed to build a nuclear weapon. this as the "new york times" obtains a report from the united nation's watch dog group saying iran may have the data it actually needs to build a nuclear bomb and the capability to do so. with a little context on what these inspections will entail, i'm joined by a former assistant deputy administrator with the national nuclear security ad administration, leonard specter. thank you very much. you once worked for the iaea. no one knows better, really. i mean, you know what we've been dealing with to try to get iran to be fortright and honest. that certainly hasn't been the case. the iaea is reporting iran has information it needs to build a nuclear bomb. what does this mean for the u.s. and our troops stationed in that part of the world, on the border nation of iraq and afghanistan. >> the information has been around for a while. what we're seeing for the first time and what you and i are seeing is this all spelled out in black

u.s. demand will be for access to this secret nuclear facility that was disclosed last week. but they're not necessarily expecting to come away with that today. the bottom line today may be just an agreement to keep talking. but the u.s. is going to be watching iran very closely. one official told me this morning, they're going to be looking to see if the iranians are serious. and if they're not, the u.s. is going to be looking at sanctions. >> we're hearing, jim, that the u.s. may take the rare step of holding one-on-one talks with the iranians. what's the thinking there? >> reporter: well, the u.s. officials have been talking up that possibility. they say there's going to be a number of opportunities for that today. and it would be a first in the context of these talks. yesterday, you had the visit of the u.s. -- of the iranian foreign minister to washington. him being allowed to visit there. what u.s. officials are telling me is they feel they have the upper hand. that the international community is more unified now against iran. and that may put pressure on the iranians to

nuclear agency says the inspection of iran's previously secret nuclear facility near qom will take place october 25. is iran playing ball with the u.s. and its allies or just playing them? we report. you decide. here is chief washington correspondent jim angle. >> mohammed varde sought to characterize iran's obligatory inspection as a sign of progress. >> i see that we are shifting gears from chron frontation into transparency and cooperation. >> but u.s. senators of both parties have seen this dance before and made clear on fox news sunday they think iran is just playing for time in an effort to build the bomb. >> we are on a path of a nuclear iran which is an unacceptable course. it is clear that iran is headed down the track of getting a nuclear weapon. they have the knowledge. they now have a secret facility. >> the senators are not alone. an unreleased report from u.n. inspectors that leaked out has a chilling conclusion. it says iran now has sufficient information to be able to design and produce a workable atom bomb. that, and a recent in your face test of medium-range missiles has convinced senators they need to work immedia

ahmadinejad, today, saying his key -- nuclear complex was no secret at all and now says he told this u.n. about the facility, weeks before the u.sr countries accused him of hiding it and also says president obama is making a, quote, historic mistake by accusing iran of wrongdoing. in 1995, ask just about anyone and they can remember where they were when o.j. simpson was found not guilty. the sensational case, captivated an polarized the nation and began more than a year orioler when o.j. simpson's ex-wife, nicole brown and her friend, ron goldman were found dead outside of her l.a. condo. and what followed from the white bronco to the infamous liter gloves became part of the trial of the century and came

u.s. and iran holding its first direct talk in 30 years, all of this on the heels of i n iran's disclosure of a second secret facility. iran has said they would not be willing to discuss their nuclear rights here in geneva, but there are reports that iran's nuclear negotiator touched on the nuclear program in a very general way. is that a good sign? >> reporter: well, it might be. i think what the iranians said is that they were willing to talk about it in some general matter, but weren't willing to talk about freezing of enrichment and that kind of thing. until we get a better download about what's happening in those meetings, what specifically happened, we won't have an idea of what -- >> hitting the skies again, let's listen. >> jeff? you were with me that day over the hudson. and you have my eternal gratitude for your skill and your courage. i could not have had a better colleague that day or since. within about two days of the january 15th emergency landing when it first became apparent to us that something about this event had captured the imaginations of people around the world, and it happened at a t

new york times about a secret up until now iaea report that iran is close and has the data to make a nuclear bomb. you look at that, which is much further down the road than the u.s. intelligence community has been pubcly, it's much closer to britain, also the israelis, but you start getting into a time table situation and wondering whether these talks are going to pay off or are really a stalling technique. that's something that congress is dealing with and may move forward on sanctions on its own. >> and the scary thing is that it feels like we've been down this road before. now a war strategy n afghanistan will be a thorny issue. general mcchrystal is the president's guy, but he's recommending more troops. not what the administration wanted to hear. will they let the military experts run the war or make key decisions from offices in washington? >> that is the question. because it is the essential decision for how the war in afghanistan moves forward. it is a cross roads. and how the president comes down on this very public risk between vice president biden and how stanley mcchrystal thinks the war should go forward, there is a large cassism between the two. at

secret ballot. you never get the full story. what we do know there's a spat over the distribution over the media income since the 1984 olympics since the ioc needed money. u.s. said we'll help you out. there's been a spat. that should be distributed more evenly now particularly to emerging markets. there's a little bit of resentment on that. also the fact as phil mentioned chicago is a city that can't be really supported by the federal government. all the other bid cities are supported by the government. the president of brazil, got the prime minister of japan was here. king juan carlos, president of brazil are embedded within the bidding teams within the presentation teams and have been for quite some time. i think that perhaps makes a difference as well. >> you mentioned this, chicago. there wasn't much enthusiasm. there was some rioting on the street. the polling data showed a slight majority was opposed to the olympics coming to chicago. is that the kind of thing the ioc would have looked at? >> absolutely. they would have looked at that. remember most of the ioc members that are voting are ex-olympic athletes. so they are are looking at it through thei

u.s. dollar. the allegations around many of these gulf arab states. saudi arabia says the reports are incorrect. according to their ports, secret meetings took place with ministers from china, russia, and france, in order to orchestrate a shady wiloil sche. greg palkot has the latest. >> the report claimed that oil- producing nations like saudi arabia were meeting with will consuming nations like china and japan, and in these meetings, decided they might move away from the dollar as the basis for their oil trading. we spoke to an analyst and he said nothing like that should be happening any time soon, although he admits that as the dollar gets weaker and weaker, the phasing out of the dollar as the world currency is being considered. folks here in england are still not over the pound resumed its global status. at home, if the dollar is less to use, it that you could be lower, and that could be a problem for paying off our debt. just talk of this hit the value of the dollar today. very sensitive stuff. martha: there is a secret push among our friends and enemies to basically end the dollar. this is a shocking development. let's

u.s. sticking to its original assessment that iran stopped work on a weapons program back in 2003. and the opposing views coming on the heels of the disclosure of iran's secret nuclear facility, if they are both seeing the same intel why are they coming to dramatically different conclusions, joining me, jim walsh an expert on international security at the mit security studies program, jim, thanks. let me -- >> good to be with you, gregg. >> gregg: i'll put up on the screen the bottom line of the november '07 national intelligence estimate: "we judge with high confidence -- high confidence, mind you -- in the fall of 2003, tehran halted its nuclear weapons program." would that nie assessment -- was it wrong? >> no, i don't think so. i think most of the evidence supports this position, and, you heard leon panetta as recently as a couple of weeks ago, reaffirm the conclusion. now, is there agreement in yes, there is disagreement between american and british officials and maybe between american and israeli officials, but, let's be clear, about what that disagreement is. it's not as if britain or israel has a gotcha piece of evidence that says, look we can prove

secret enrichment facility that was recently revealed. his visit comes days after iran and six nations sat down with negotiations. it was the first high level talks between the u.s. and iran in three decades. as promised, here is the video of that israeli soldier being held captive by hamas. israel just released 20 female prisoners to get its hands on this video as it works to win the release of this soldier. he has been held captive since 2006 and this video proves that he is alive. >>> treasury secretary tim geithner meeting with finance ministers from other go 7 nations in istanbul today. the u.s. has been pushing to decrease the size of the g7 from 7 countries to four, saying the current group has lost some of us relevance. >>> a man who is very relevant today, rick. >> answer a quick answer. we have people e-mailing, wanting to know -- >> that's good. >> when do we turn the clocks back? people want to know. >> i think it's november 1. let me double-check it. yeah. -- no, the first saturday in november. >> people thought today was the day. it's not today. >> there has been drought across much of south texas. this has been improving, though, after this last w

secrets you need to know to get the best deal in the market? here with some advice is rick neuman, chief business correspondent for "u.s. news & world report." rick, great to see you. >> hi, gerri. >> we talk about how hard it is to get the mortgage. you have to put 20% down now. you have to have a great credit score. 720, 740. you think there's more to think about. >> right, we know about the home buyer tax credit the $8,000 credit supposed to expire in december. it's looking like -- there's a lot of clatter in washington that maybe this will be extended. this has a big impact whether you qualify for the credit or not because that credit has driven up demand for houses in a lot of markets, which raises prices a little bit. so people just need to be paying attention to that. there's some other things going on in washington sort of behind the scenes that affect the availability of mortgages and mortgage rates, which is going to affect the market for houses going into the winter. >> the bottom line there, of course, there's no guarantee the low mortgage rates will continue. >> right, but i think for sure, the government is not going to let thi

u.s. has agreed to ship out of iran some enriched uranium that would put off any kind of nuclear program they could build. but the issue is do they have secretpiles the world doesn't know about? the president says he won't negotiate with iran indefinitely, but you have to wonder what the good faith is. is there an opportunity to get over the tensions. is there a conversation about what the u.s.-iranian relationship could look like down the road if they can do business and negotiate away the nuclear program, there might be a lot of upside for iran. the question is what relationship the u.s. and its allies have against iran and what they're really prepared to do. senator mccain yesterday, as part of the washington ideas forum here yesterday, and he was skeptical about the impact of sanctions primarily because he's concerned that russia and china won't necessarily be on board. so this diplomatic work will go forward, but there's a real question about how much leverage the u.s. will have working its allies against iran. >> pat buchanan. >> david, reading a lot of reports from washington, one gets the sense that the white house, as a collective,
