in neighbouring tanzania they have a terrible problem. shocking.ter responsible on the programme and i put him all of the allegations about corruption inside his country, with the police and judiciary, all allegedly involved in the poaching network. you can't control that, can you? no, but others can. what we've discovered is that ivory has become a commodity and the dealings in ivory have been infiltrated by criminal syndicates. as they have for child export and as they have with drugs and various other things. and the people who are now controlling it are criminals outside kenya, often with huge sources of money. they've bought the judges, they've bought the prosecutors, they've bought the police, they've bought the authorities. now, at this stage, my charge is to stop the killing of our elephants. i must work very closely with others to stop kenya being used as a port of transit. i think we can do that given the connections that i have in thejudiciary. well, let me put it bluntly, do you think neighbouring governments have the right level of com

just a briefly provide an example from another small article i am working on in tanzania. if you just looked at to what is obviously a former british protectorates in 1961, if you just look at the british experience there by way of security assistance, training upward the colonial police, you would conclude that in 1961, the government in tanzania cut size -- cut high does -- cut ties and marched off in an independent fashion. it's built-in -- it builds into the wilson center's broader agenda. archives, youli will see quite quickly that it was in fact the israelis who came in as the new providers of security to train of the tanzanian security intelligence services, completely overhauling the architecture of the british and handed over independence. 1967, due tohrough the six day war, it would appear, and i'm still looking at to gain a managed foothold out of the principal trainer of choice in tanzania. similarly, in 1964 following the east african mutinies in tanzania, can you, and uganda, the president in tanzania rather than offering the training and overhaul of his mili

it followed the embassy bombings in kenya and tanzania.hen, with this, it depends how it is followed up. is it a one-time message spending strike that targeted al qaeda after the embassy bombings? didn't have a significant effect on al qaeda and didn't get the leaders and 9/11 followed three years later. does this change bashar al assad's military action against his own people? not just the use of chemical weapons. does he continue to drop barrel bombs, et cetera? it hasn't dpl n'n' n'n't dimini military aspects. does the u.s. show willingness to show military action if he doesn't change his behavior on the ground? is this the first of many attacks? is it about message sending? a lot of that we will know after the fact after today. that's the test going forward. >> and that '98 example is another example of dubious legal authority for military action taken unilaterally. david gregory, we will see how that plays out. the idea the president needs to go to congress. how does that play politically? >> i think the political calculus right now f
