negotiating table. it is not a coincidence. you can make a strong case there is no nation that has not been edited negotiation that has a clear stake in the outcome of negotiations. that is an important reason why the president has pursued this diplomatic opening. the principal reason is he believes it is clearly in the national security interest of the united states for iran not to obtain nuclear weapons. the most effective way to do that is to get the ring in regime to voluntarily -- iranian regime to voluntarily give up the pursuit of nuclear weapons. and maintain that an put in place a regime to make sure they don't acquire one. that is the goal of these negotiations. the united states has a clear stake, but so does israel. that is why we will continue to negotiate with them. >> you are consulting but you are worried about cherry picking. so, does that still limit the information that you provide during those consultations? >> i am not going to be a look to get into the details of the conversation for obvious reasons. but i think it is fair to say that the united states is mindful of the need to not negotiate in public and ensure that

participating in the negotiations that has a greater insight into what is going on at the negotiating table and it's not a coincidence. you can also make a strong case that there is no nation representing the stake in the outcome of these negotiations and that is principally by not principally wide but an important reason why the president has pursued this diplomatic openness. the reason because he believes it is in the national security interest of the united states of america for iran not to obtain nuclear weapons and there is a way to do that if we get the regime to voluntarily and in a verifiable way give up the pursuit of the weapon and make it clear that they are not going to obtain a weapon and put in place the monitoring regime to make sure they do not acquire one and that is the goal of these negotiations. the united states has a stake in this outcome but so does israel and that is why we will continue to consult with him about these talks. hispanics give our consulting that you are worried about cherry picking. so does that still when it the information that you provided during those consultations? >> i won't get into the details of those conversations for obviou

today, we call for a new patriotism, where americans begin to put the needs of americans first, for a new nationalism where in every negotiationbe it arms control or trade, the american side seeks advantage and victory for the united states. the people of this country need to recapture our capital city of washington from lobbyists and registered agents of foreign powers hired to look out for everybody and everything except the national interest of the united states. it is time also to take a hard look at the welfare state. over a quarter century we have poured hundreds of billions of dollars into great society programs. whatever the motives of those who built this mammoth state enterprise, our financial loss has been exceeded only by the social catastrophe it created. high school test scores drop every year, as the levels of violent crime reach new heights. narcotics have ravaged a generation. our popular culture of books movies and films is as polluted as lake eerie once was. the welfare state has bred a generation of children and youth with no fathers, no faith and no dreams -- other than the lure of the streets. to our econ

are fighting in the arena of diplomacy, the entire iranian nation as well as the great islamic revolution, they all support that front. the front of negotiation. the enemies of the nation who are opposed are the zionists -- they are trying their utmost and have done whatever they could but the world today has realized the treason on the part of the zionists, especially after the crimes committed in for the past month in gaza. so the criminals stay criminals in the region. the third demand of the iranian nation has been freedom. a republic system without freedom is meaningless. islam, also goes together with freedom. national unity, we see an array of different opinions and we're still standing united. we have a variety of opinions, but that is no problem. when it comes to national interests, and expediency, all of us are standing united. so today like 36 years ago we still raise the cry of independence, freedom and the islamic republic. the islamic revolution belongs to the entire iranian nation. it does not belong to a certain ethnic group, nor does it belong to any certain walk of life or any faction. people stood up altogether and rose alt

the u.s. jordan and a few other arab nations. now during the negotiations the jordanians asked islamic state to provide proof the 26-year-old was alive. but it seems they didn't get it. they now say they believe he was actually killed in early january, so weeks before the high profile bid to secure his release. our cameras were rolling in amman when kasasbeh's father found out what happened to his son. he appears utterly deflated. he then canceled a media briefing and relatives had to help him leave. king abdullah of jordan was in the u.s. when he heard the news. he met with president barack obama after releasing a statement for jordanian tv. abdullah condemned the killing and he called on his people to stand united in the face of the islamic state threat. the king cut short his trip and went home to deal with the situation. jordanians are seething with anger over kasasbeh's barbaric killing and the hostile religious message it sends. muslims believe if someone is burned to death nay can't be resurrected in the afterlife. so islamic state's message here is

. >>> workers in nine states are striking up talks with the shell oil company broke down. they're negotiating a nationalontracts for workers for other countries. the united steal workers one of the workers on the bit line. >> the main thing we want people to understand is that this is not about financial--this is not a financial strike. this is about safety and going home to our wives and our children. which live in the communities that these refineryies were built in. some of our biggest concerns are the fatigue standards where people have worked long hours and a lot of days in a row. we had agreement for fatigue policy but it's being--not followed or implemented properly. when i first started out in this industry 35 years ago i went to a four-year apprenticeship school where we see people coming out to work that we don't feel are qualified or safe. but there are no checks or balances that we can find that information out. so we're hoping that the industry will listen to what we're saying and give people an opportunity to learn these jobs, and for us to help teach and do these jobs. >> now dealing with

negotiation involved. my own opinion, john foley's own, is that i think rescue was delayed because the european nations andon was delayed because they were actually negotiating. >> had the world known that 18 journalists and aid workers were held together i think in their most hopeful moments the captives really envisioned a coalition of governments working together and really trying to get them out, and nothing could have been furtherer from the truth. everyone was kind of doing their own thing. there was very little collaboration. we can do better. i just know we can do better. >> what a candid interview this morning on "new day." david hrode is with me. he was captured and rescued two months later. glad to have you back. if the parents of james foley were saying basically if they had been louder and more active, my question to you is do you think that would have put their son at greater risk? >> well, and i should first admit, near the end of the case i was advising the foleys and trying to help them what to do so we all failed them in short including myself. i don't think they made a mistake. i think t

the united states and its allies. we can be expected to try our patients pascience. we must never waver in our commitment to our allies, nor accept any negotiation which is not clearly in the national interest. we must judge carefully, but we should leave no initiative untried in our pursuit of peace. we must be clear in our resolve to resist any np slacked wherever it may occur. negotiation with the soviet union must never become appeasement. for most of the last 40 years we've been preoccupied with the global struggle with the soviet union, and our responsibility to the allies. too often in recent times, we have just along with the events responding as we thought of ourselves as a nation in decline. to our allies, we seem to be a nation that can't make decisions in our own inches. since the second world war, we spend large amounts of money and our time protecting freedom around the world. we must continue this for if we do not accept the response billion leadership, who will? if no one will, how will we survive? the 1970's have taught us the lesson of not having a long-range diplomatic strategy of our own. the world has become a place where an order to survive, our country needs

the president's cabinet and on the national security council and national economic council. at the direction of president clinton he worked with republicans in the house and senate to negotiate that landmark balance budgeting deal. gene sperling was also in the thick of it as the deputy director and then director of the national economic council, designing and passing the 93 deficit reduction act, a principal negotiator of the 1997 bipartisan balanced budget act and a key architect of the dramatic increase in the earned income tax credit. that is just a small portion of both of these men's resumes. to keep them honest and to add context and texture to their consequential work is brendan doherty, associate professor of political science at the u.s. naval academy, where he teaches about the presidency, congress, campaigns, and elections. he's the author of "the rise of the permanent presidential campaign." most importantly for this discussion, he has already worked with the miller center to comb transcripts and get a deeper insight into the environments and discussions that led to the incredible economic record under president clinton. to get things started they will each spen

are fighting in the arena of diplomacy, the entire iranian nation, as well as the great islamic revolution they all support that front too. the front of negotiation that is. so today it's only the enemies of the nation who are opposed of the negotiating table, that is the zionists the zionists are tryinging their utmost they have done whatever they could, but the world today has realized the treason on the part of the zionist, especially after the crimes committed in the past month in gaza. so the criminals -- they have acted as criminals in that region. so the third demand of the iranian nation has been freedom . our republican system without freedom is meaningless. islam goes together with freedom. so our national unity we see the whole array of different opinions, still we're standing united. so we have a variety of opinions, that's no problem. but when it comes to national interests and expediency, all of these are standing united. so today too, like 36 years ago, we still raise the cry of independence, freedom and in the islamic republic. the islamic revolution belongs to the entire iranian nation. it does not belong to a certain ethnic grou

the u.s. does negotiate with terrorists putting a target on every americans back and jeopardizing our national security. ever since the secret negotiations began in june 2013, this is what the castro regime has been doing since they won the talks. just a few examples. july 15, 2013. a north korean flag cargo ship was caught in panama after it left cuba heading to north korea after inspection. it included components of surface-to-air missile systems and launchers make 21 jet fighter parts and engines showcasing's, rocket projectiles, and cargo was hidden under 200,000 bags of sugar. october 6, 2013. over 135 democracy activists arrested in one day throughout cuba up. also arrested was the leader of ladies in white who was dragged through the streets by her hair and her husband and boy was also arrested. june 12, 2014. others were arrested. cuba and russia agreed to open the spying facility. in 2014 it led to almost 9000 arrests of pro-democracy leaders in one year. almost a 40% increase from 2013. while we were in negotiations in 2013, 2014, and last month while the u.s. delegation arrived, rus

has now threatened a nuclear test because of the united nations attention on human rights in the country. ambassador joseph detrani is a former u.s. negotiator with north korea on their nuclear program. the six party talks reached a dead end in 2009. >> if they are not happy with something, they will tell you; well we're not happy with something. and if you persist we'll have a nuclear test, we'll have a missile launch. and i think the expectation has been: we will cave. threats don't work any longer. the threat to escalate doesn't work any longer they are not going to get what they want because they are threatening. they will get more by coming back to the table and being reasonable. >> the united states has announced a new round of sanctions as a response to the cyber attack on sony pictures they claim was orchestrated by north korea > outside policy is pro-engagement or pressure. pressure does not work. engagement might have some impact but only very limited. on balance we have this kind of oscillation between unrealistic hopes about pressure and unrealistic hopes about engagement. >> we have had 20 years of experience negotiating with no

time when the soviet union may enjoy nuclear superiority over this country, we must never waiver in our commitment to our allies nor accept any negotiation which is not clearly in the national interest. we must judge carefully. though we should leave no initiative untried in our pursuit of peace, we must be clear voiced in our resolve to resist any unpeaceful act wherever it may occur. negotiation with the soviet union must never become appeasement. for the most of the last 40 years, we have been preoccupied with the global struggle -- the competition -- with the soviet union and with our responsibilities to our allies. but too often in recent times we have just drifted along with events, responding as if we thought of ourselves as a nation in decline. to our allies we seem to appear to be a nation unable to make decisions in its own interests let alone in the common interest. since the second world war we have spent large amounts of money and much of our time protecting and defending freedom all over the world. we must continue this, for if we do not accept the responsibilities of leadership who will? and if no one will, how will we survive? the 1970s have taught us the fo
