, the korean race. and actually the word did not appear in the korean light which enter the japanese brought to the korean people and as the professor of harvard university has said there was no strong sense of belonging to a korean nation until very late in the 19th century. in other words, the koreans were not nationalists. they were xenophobic but there's a difference. as you can see from this map this is a korean map from 1402. the koreans at that time you leave their country to be on the outskirts of this great chinese cultural well that they saw themselves in sort of a permanent student positioned to the great chinese teacher. so in 1910 korea was annexed. here you see the korean soldiers. for the first two years of the japanese occupation of korea, the japanese ruled their subject so heavy-handed they that the korean nationalism bubble over into a big demonstration in 1919, which frightened the japanese. after that the japanese relaxed some of the policies that had inflamed the koreans. they decid

this is how the north korean propaganda tries to present south korea to the north korean people. the north koreans now know that south koreans are richer. they know this because the information that was isolated north griffin the rest of the world is in ruins. so many north koreans now have access to south korean dvds, some of them are in washington south korean tv if you live in the south of north korea. some of them are watching chinese tv. the government cannot persist in this lie that all the south koreans are starving to death. so the north korean regime says yes, they are better off than we are and here you can see them with their cameras and their motorcycles and so on. and a nice cars. but for all the material wealth, the south korean people are still deeply ashamed of living under the yankee yoke. and they long to rest their faces and kim jong-il's bosom as well. so here's the south koreans cheering this image of kim jong-il on the screen. this was the message the north koreans were putting across throughout south korea sunshine policy which was a accommodation policy dur

but there was a determination by the korean people and the international community. and you did it and we can make it. thank you. >> thank you. ambassador, general fields, thank you.

and the last thing you want to do, as an ethnic korean in north korea is say i'm an american. that to them is just baffling, and the reports i heard was he had been severely beaten while in north korean custody. . . perfectly happy to let him go in response for something. >> coming close to lining up a question here that asks about kim jong il, i always turn those around. can you give us an understanding about the name? >> it can be translated as becoming the sun and kim jong il can be translated as the true sun. these names are not particularly symbolic for the north korean people because they stopped using chinese characters in their ridings on wouldn't read too much into those names. you can look at the etymology of certain words but we are not really conscious of them in daily life. in korean families the names of the suns will often be quite similar so the first chinese character of the children's first name will all be the same one which is why the pictures i showed you are all quite similar. >> what about the daughter's? >> their names are different. >> do they take the

of those who are not here, what can this group of leaders who are here do to help deal with the north korean problem or the iranian problem, for example? >> we at global zero believable and i personally believe that if we're able to achieve consensus, if we're able to bring the nuclear states and also the nuclear capable states and obviously this meeting is a group of states that have nuclear materials or access to nuclear materials, if we're able to bring as many of those states together as possible, and if we're able to agree, as i hope this summit will, there will be concrete agreements to safeguard nuclear materials, smuggling, nuclear materials crossing borders and nuclear materials within a country's borders.

the north koreans and the iranians, as you pointed now the the interview, have not exactly reciprocated. the obama administration has not been able to get a u.n. resolution yet. i think eventually they will against iran. the bush administration at least did get three in its second term. so i think that the next few years for president obama are going to be all about how does he deal with irreconcilable states that the rest of the world doesn't want to take on. and that's what makes iran such a fascinating test case. >> we have picked off -- i agree with david. we've picked often more terrorists in the pakistan-afghanistan border last year than bushel was able to in his last term f. you think about george bush and condy rice, he sent her over saying we're going to build that radar system with or without your approval. this president has decided to go a different tact adds david laid out. you can't underestimate the power of engagement. secretary clinton's point needs to be taken. the fact that you can say we're doing things differently, i'm not george bush. it sounds simple. really is a

the military wleefs with a tore peato fired from a north korean submarine tank sank a ship last month. a news report said on thursday, the news report appears to be the clearest sign yet that seoul blames panjyang. this puts more political pressure on the south korean president, but analysts do not see it triggering a war. >> on the business side, u.s. president barack obama gets ready to take his financial reform to wall street today. and to talk more about it, joining us is emanuel daniel, president and ceo of the asian banker and our guest host, aaron smith, continues to stay with us. emanuel, let me ask you, this move against goldman is pushed by the u.s. for greater financial regulation. what are the implications here in asia? do you think regulators here in asia are looking to do the same thing? >> everyone is watching what the s.e.c. and the fcc are going to frame the charges. all the legal construct of charges against investment banks have been exhausted. so this will involve a new way of looking at things. there are a number of prospects on the table in asia. the local distri

of world war ii and correa the scene is the concept of a front line rather europe or up and down the korean peninsula usually the stores of the battles are identified with a front line. no one ever existed in india number of this shows where the battles broke out. somebody help me. [laughter] the point* is simultaneously early 1968 dozens and dozens of battles broke out at the same time all over the country and this was another key point* to differentiate our experience from hours and the other words. we were never at a point* where we could say we are here and they are there we were often surrounded by them or another enclave surrounded them. that made a great difference of the medical and surgical care of the casualties. all of these little burst indicate the battles that broke out simultaneously january and february 1968. i make the point* regardless of what surgical unit you were a the attached to there was no frontline. i want to talk the differences between the wars and the casualties. this shows the number of casualties from the different wars in vietnam comes in third with 58,000 de

trade deficit, the uae has selected south korean nuclear plants. i mention the saudi and uae visits to kahuta because they help define what we mean by nuclear security. and also help illustrate the way others see it as well. to ordinary people, i.e., not the likes of us policy wonks the term nuclear security seems like an oxymoron. it will be interesting to see how the white house explains the term to the public during next week's summit here in washington, d.c. i would suggest that to some states, nuclear security is the possession of nuclear weapons. to other states, it is the protection offered by allies such as the united states, which have nuclear weapons. on the civil side, it might well be the energy security offered by civilian nuclear power plants. nuclear science has much to offer on the positive side. but it also carries considerable risks of nuclear weapons being in the wrong hands. of rogue states or terrorist groups. and again on the civil side, even civil nuclear power plants carry risks of radiation accidents or theft of dangerous ma

whether it was fighting through europe or fighting up and down the korean peninsula, usually the stories of the battles were identified with some sort of a front line. no such line ever existed in vietnam. this slide shows where the battles broke out -- oh, i'm sorry. let me go back. i did something wrong. somebody help me. at any rate, if you can fix that, the point is simultaneously in early 1968, dozens and dozens of battles broke out at the same time all over the country. and this was another key point in differentiating our experience from that recorded in the other wars. we were never anywhere where we could say they're here and we're there. we were very frequently in one enclave surrounded by them or another enclave, another unit surrounded. and that made a great tactical difference in terms of the medical and surgical care of the casualties. are we back online? so these bursts show the battles that broke out. i make that point regardless of what surgical unit you were attached to, there's no front line, okay? now, i want to talk about the differences between the wars again in ter

areas that were vital to our strategic interest in the case of the land mine's particularly on the korean peninsula. and finland also opposed that treaty. they remember prior conflicts with russia. the finnish ambassador of the negotiation was one criticized by media scandinavia, that pointed out sweden fully supported the land mine and limited frustration said that's because sweden thinks of finland as its land mine. the point being that there are a lot of important issues at stake here. and the rhetoric of the arm's control advocates often is very divorced from important and legitimate american security concerns. this fascination with international law though goes well beyond including in the area of human rights where we've seen this administration demonstrate it's commitment to binding the u.s. and international conventions by rejoining or by joining for the first time the new human rights council at the u.n., the body set up to replace discredited human rights commission. and we see in the session just concluded, just how effective american membership and a new body has been. thanks

to the six-party talks pending the results of south koreans thinking navy ships. s that the position-- the state department position on the six-party talks currently? >> i wouldn't necessarily link goes directly. the investigation on the ship sinking continues. as we have said from this podium and elsewhere, we will draw conclusions once we understand what the investigation discovers. we want to see north korea come back to the six-party process. we are committed to this with our partners. but clearly, provocative actions that north korea takes has an impact on the broader environments, so i wouldn't predict anything going forward but on the investigation itself, let's find out and conclude what is responsible for the sinking of the ship and we will draw implications from that. speak can i follow up on that? the military u.s. officials are saying that it was not an internal explosion, that it was an external explosion that caused the subto sink. i am sorry, because the south korean ship to sink. now that they no it is not a boiler there is obviously some kind of ex

of those who are not here, what can this group of leaders who are here do to help deal with the north koreanroblem or the iranian problem, for example? >> we at global zero believable and i personally believe that if we're able to achieve consensus, if we're able to bring the nuclear states and also the nuclear capable states and obviously this meeting is a group of states that have nuclear materials or access to nuclear materials, if we're able to bring as many of those states together as possible, and if we're able to agree, as i hope this summit will, there will be concrete agreements to safeguard nuclear materials, smuggling, nuclear materials crossing borders and nuclear materials within a country's borders. then you're beginning to develop a global consensus, a certain mow men mum that's critical in achieving global zero an to diminishing the threats of nuclear terrorism, of those materials that are so many of them in unstable parts of the world reaching the hands of those who would use them to wreak havoc on any of us anywhere in the world. >> is there any risk in doing this in the se

as to the bigger issue of stopping the iranian nuclear program or dealing with the north korean program, i think we're doomed to failure as long as we maintain the policies of the bush and obama administration. that policy is that we beg but we never bargain. we have never told any country that if they'll help us deal with these nuclear problems we'll see it there way on any other issue, or that, for example, china's access to u.s. markets would be impeded in any way if they continue to support iran and north korean nuclear program which they're really supporting, although their rhetoric is on the other side. so as long as we try to persuade these countries that they ought to change their policies because they don't yet understand what is in their national interests, i think we're doomed to failure. our unwillingness to bargain, to threaten, to make concessions dooms us to a world in which iran and north korea have nuclear weapons and that will be a very dangerous world. >> congressman, you were paying attention certainly to the president's remarks in meetings in prague. surrounding the

or the korean cable has taken over. and whenever we see that in other countries come in fact, when ever our treasury saw in the 1990 in other countries, they have always insisted that when you took and i crisis measures you address the underlying crisis. which is not easy to do. . . lehman didn't have enough capital, why would anybody at that capital. we think over the counter-derivatives. i know people's eyes glaze over whenever i say that. but it's important. and it's very political. but it should be -- it should be they should be traded on exchanges and there should be more capital on the derivatives and you could see a cap on derivatives trading. there's a subsidy from the derivatives that the big broker dealers are too big to fail they have clear up funding costs and that's a big part of the problem there. i think that's less likely to get addressed even the bank size. as for jamie diamond. all the points we make is about policy. this is not an anti-individual. i think it's helpful to put names on it. this is not a

you are hinting at, you talked about the south koreans and other governments. many people are looking at the way our democracy from its pre- 1800 model competes against other types of more modern democracies were other types of nation states that have the ability to make decisions in different ways. . . a different focus on environmental outcomes and so forth, so there is some chance once we are all gone, things will be five. -- fine. the only hope, the secretary of energy and the president bring you out from california where you were one of the leaders of the lawrence berkeley national laboratory to run this new advance research project agency, at the end of the day, is it all about what brains we have and what we can do? >> yes, but more. so yeah. myes, i was at lawrence and u.c. berkeley as a professor, but i started my professional career at a.c. as a 26-year-old young assistant professor, so thank you. and it's been -- i still have a lot of friends out there. let me just make a few point. i'm going to make five points and quickly. number one, i believe we a

my father served in the korean conflict as well. ere are no more noble people than those who put themselves at risk to protect the lives of their shift fellow human beings -- of their fellow human beings. i do not really know what his question was. the me just say this relate to president bush. he has taken a lot of abuse. when he was in office, no matter what people called him, he continued to do what he believed was right. the bottom line is he sometimes found himself trying to stave off an enemy. he had to walk like a line through high yen has always trying to attack him. if iran gains nuclear capability, we may be wishing that the that line is walking among us again. host: next phone call, dick from dayton, tennessee. caller: my first question is about israeli nuclear capacity. in the 1960's, president kennedy got a promise that iran would not build a nuclear bomb them. israel lied to them and then, and they are lying now. the other thing is, the u.s. spend more money on defense than any other country. we are building submarines,

has to occur and then you're hinting at and i hope the panel discusses later, you talked about the south koreans and other governments, i think many people are looking at the way that our democracy from its agreian distributed pre1800 model creates from other differentiated states that has the ability to make decisions in different ways, so i hope we can come back and talk some about that because i think that's a factor here, also. >> i think there's a slight generational change as well which most of us in this room are frankly rather old and, you know, myself included. half of our work lives are moreover and that 40 years, anybody graduating from college right now, that 40 years is their entire life, their entire working life and it's quite different, they have a very different perspective on this than we do. >> one of the things we noticed at the university with all our students is that they are increasingly different from previous groups, the millennium generation has different clock speeds and different ways of sympathizing information and a different focus on duty and environmental outcomes

in international conferences where things are progressed -- the mexicans, the south koreans, now are pleased to talk about foreign policy gestures they are making. you personally have discussed this with leaders of these countries. to what extent are you aware of your foundations doing good? i ask this of both of you because i said in the opening statement the obvious. the amounts of money and personnel that you are contributing to these objectives is impressive with regard to everything else our government is doing and the governments of other countries. it is not that you are separate states in these foundations. nevertheless, the impact of the shared billions of dollars is enormous. discuss, if you could, how you have taken the initiative or what sort of consultation occurs so that the net result is humane for those who receive but likewise you are perceived as americans who really have the best interests of these different countries of heart and working with other countries who likewise want to pursue that feeling with regards to themselves. president clinton, would you speak? >>

presidents met, the korean president and president obama, for the first time it indicated a willingness to sit down and talk about fixing a -- and fortunately, when the two presidents met. i want to say a word about colombia. our trade policy under this administration is essentially says this -- you have to expand trade, but to do so in a way that spreads its benefits. that is better for those countries and better for hours. with colombia and -- and this was the battle we had over tafta -- cafta. latin-american countries essentially into many cases have these deep disparities in terms of income and opportunity. you can't grow middle-class is under those circumstances. middle class is the one who buy our goods, basically. so there is a basic point in worker rights and environmental issues. it is not because anybody is standing up for any particular interest group in this country. we are standing up for our businesses and workers and and the workers and other countries in need to be part of the nixon ordered to buy our goods. -- part of the mix in order to buy our goods. today there was a

and by the beginning of the korean war -- by the beginning of the cold war in 1948, as was illustrated by churchill, we had not recovered from the great depression. from the beginning of the korean war, we had not recovered and by the end, we still had not yet recovered from the great depression. if you measure it as the dow jones industrial average recovering back to the place where it was in october of 1929, that happened, mr. speaker, nine years after franklin roosevelt had passed away. 1954 when the stock market got back to where it was in october of 1929. all of those years. and i'll argue, mr. speaker. that overspending by government, the interest and the principal delays the recovery. it may diminish the depths to which we might have otherwise fallen but delays the recovery. it's the same in a business. if you are a small business and grossing $500,000 a year in meeting a payroll and all the bills that i talked about earlier and you have a flood that wipes out your asset base and then along comes fema and if you're in business, they aren't going to give you a grant. they might h

and fortunately when our two presidents met, the korean president and president obama, for the first time korea indicated a willingness to sit down and talk about fixing it. i want to say a quick word -- i see you're shuffling your cards. i'll try to be brief. i want to say a word about colombia. our trade policy under this administration essentially says this. you have to expand trade. but to do so in a way that spreads its benefits. that's better for those countries and better for ours. with colombia -- and this was the battle we had over cafta. latin american countries in too many cases essentially have these deep disparities in terms of income and opportunity of income and opportunity. you can't grow middle-class is under those circumstances. middle class is the one who buy our goods, basically. so there is a basic point in worker rights and environmental issues. it is not because anybody is standing up for any particular interest group in this country. we are standing up for our businesses and workers and and the workers and other countries in need to be part of the nixon ordere

of course, north korea as the history of the korean war. they are two different situations, but what they have in common is potential proliferation. we take that seriously. both of them i believe have parallels to the cuban missile crisis. crisis. president kennedy was confronted with the choice of an emerging nuclear threat, in terms of them placing missiles in cuba, at the same time that he raised pressure on the soviet union, he made it clear that he could open up channels of negotiations to allow for a grateful -- graceful exit for them, taking into account the interest of both sides. host: you start with a map looking at the u.s. and cuba with concentric rings around it. what does that mean? yes, those are the target ranges of the various muscles in cuba. one of the things that chairman khrushchev did when he intended to install the missiles in cuba was to increase the soviet strike force against the u.s. and reduce the morning time from 20 minutes, to less than three. it was an existential threat to the u.s., and that is my president k

taking money away from people as is now clear, if we do to the iran's central bank what we did to the north koreank, we can bring down the regime in iran. mable people disagree with the there. i think we can. that to me is the test. and not the namby-pamby sanctions that we pass and they we dilute, and then since 1986 would have the iran sanctions act. president clinton, president bush and the new president has not enforced sanctions against either american subsidiaries, american companies or foreign companies with respect to that bill. the power is there to do it and yet we haven't done it. and part of that is there are too many people that have vested interest in doing business with iran. as one of my family security pieces quoted in the headline was from the godfather, it's not personal, it's just a business. we can't afford that anymore in this day and age. this is to service an issue. so fundamentally, to wrap up, it preserves a triad, good. it says we're not going to get rid of no first use, make it ambiguous, good. we're not going to be learned. but. missile defense is front and center, goo

unfortunately when are two presidents met, the korean president and president obama, for the first time it indicated a willingness to sit down and talk about fixing a -- and fortunately, when the two presidents met. i want to say a word about colombia. our trade policy under this administration is essentially says this -- you have to expand trade, but to do so in a way that spreads its benefits. that is better for those countries and better for hours. with colombia and -- and this was the battle we had over tafta -- cafta. latin-american countries essentially into many cases have these deep disparities in terms of income and opportunity. you can't grow middle-class is under those circumstances. middle class is the one who buy our goods, basically. so there is a basic point in worker rights and environmental issues. it is not because anybody is standing up for any particular interest group in this country. we are standing up for our businesses and workers and and the workers and other countries in need to be part of the nixon ordered to buy our goods. -- part of the mix in order to buy o

i could assure you somebody probably realized but i don't, and i do, the russian and the chinese and koreans who protect their own ships with convoys. if i may gently put it, they are not certain to hear about them again. that's hoot matter entirely. but it is a fact to take into account. we were then told we must not arm our ships. we've started to arm our ships. twice now, as they've seen it, now the international unions have declared they want the ships to be armed because they have many thousands of their things when doing it. the thing i wanted to declare is all three are enrolled. what is the possibility of the international law being tightened or even added into piracy to the anti-terrorist law which will enable you to deal with it much more effectively than you can at moment? >> if i start, i think that in general terms, the legal -- not specifically about prior prior piracy, the united nations has gone through, has a large number of different protocols and treaty obligations for all of its member states. it was encaging in -- encouraging in 2006 there was support for the antiterrori

the international internet and technology? i say that because of north korea, hearing some reports about north koreans on the border with chinahaving cellphones and other forbidden technology in that nation but a lot more coming out. >> guest: that's right so in the case of north. as has been reported with the border with china does give opportunity for some people in north korea to access wireless networks that otherwise wouldn't be able to. there is a lot of evidence and in the public domain and says particularly in places where there are borders and where wireless signals don't necessarily recognize actual border, there are opportunities for people to get information and content otherwise can't but if a government -- a lot comes down to will. the government has the will two completely shut down its net marks -- networks that it's hard to work around that. one of the things secretary clinton said in her internet freedom speech on january 21st was we weren't going to just sit back and allow this to happen so forgetting about iran but thinking about this globally, it's important to remember there are literally dozens of count

in fact, it was a vigorous debate of the future direction of the market korean in line with my view, our guests began to accumulate -- direction of the market. in line of my view, our guest began to accumulate shorts. there was no risk involved in accumulating these positions, as no one could be certain which direction the market would go. these physicians became profitable as the market deteriorated. when the short divisions bounce, my group was expected to cover them. in both cases c'mon -- both cases, the firm insisted we reduce our position, and we did so. no one from senior management told me to take a directional bets against the sub prior market region -- subprime market. the consistent theme was to reduce risks and get closer to home. we provided significant liquidity to our customers and a difficult and challenging market while also managing to profit during this time. thank you for inviting me to testify today. i am happy to answer any questions the committee may have. >> thank you very much. >> been morning. -- good morning. i am a managing director in the mortgage departme

from the great depression from the 1929 stock market crash, wasn't world war ii, it wasn't even the korean war. in fact, franklin delano roosevelt had been dead for nine years before the stock market, the dow jones industrial average, came back to where it was in october of 1929, that happened in 1954, mr. speaker. and so one can't i think legitimately argue that the world war ii stimulus plan even brought us out of it. we increased our production. it stabilized our economy. the unemployment part got better. but the growth and equities that had to deal with the dow jones industrial average didn't get back until 1954. franklin delano roosevelt had been dead nine years before the stock market got to where it was when it crashed in 1929. this was a long, long, long, painful recovery that america went through. now, we went through not just the great depression in the 1930's looking for recovery. we went through the second world war looking for recovery. we went through the korean war and finally limped our way back. and i'll submit, mr. speaker, that a big reason for that is when you overlever
