and we should also say the u.s. stoking the civil war in syria is how to stabilize the country i think obviously the u.s. people should continue the people to people efforts that really begun during the sanctions in iraq but also during the antiwar movement to support civil society organizations trade unions women's groups and others who are trying to promote national reconciliation unity and peaceful solutions to different types of problems inside of their country and not rely on the u.s. government which is blatantly shown that it really only wants to use its power to bolster its own position in the region geo strategically which is ultimately going to mean militarizing one section of society to suppress another section of society so that they have this militarized genda armed to rely on in iraq and other countries to enforce their writ you mentioned syria how much of this escalation of violence do you think is due to syria's civil war and how do you think it was actually affect syria's for what i think it's very s

the u.s. biggest ever appeal for humanitarian help of some donors pledged two and a half billion dollars so far to help syrian refugees and one of the countries dipping into its pockets is britain but charities want to know why it's a case of open wallet with closed doors this report from tessa reseller. increasingly extreme humanitarian suffering there is a humanitarian crisis so britain is leading the way with humanitarian support but some might wonder whether it actually is the u.k. has committed five hundred million pounds of aid that's to assist syria's neighbors like lebanon jordan turkey and iraq cope with the sheer number of refugees but that as far as it's willing to go the u.k. is one criticized for saying no to the refugee agency appeal to syrians fleeing the conflict despite calls to open its doors for now why answer is still the latest count more than two million syrian refugees are at the borders of neighboring countries this is. just. on the. concern shared by seventeen other nat

the u.s. gave aid to friends who sometimes become its foes. the unrest in egypt - we'll discuss u.s. policy, billions of your tax dollars and the potential tax loss. >> our digital producer in tonight. he is bringing in all your live comments. you know, when we tweeted out today the numbers, hundreds of billions. a question from the community is why. what do we get out of this? >> we have been doing it for decades, what's in it for me and the united states. i got a tweet from the chairman emeritus of california, ron naring and this is what he says. he says: also on facebook james said: >> finally a tweet: >> you, the community can keep tweeting us. >> it's hard to believe the 3-year anniversary of the egyptian process to pave the way to democracy is upon us. with the military in power and introducing reforms to roll back freedoms egyptians hoped for, is it a return to the hosni mubarak era? the world watched deadly clashes between the regime and mohamed morsi, who was ousted in a coup last summ

the u.s. shale issue playing into this also, importing cheaper coal from them, working against the policy of less co2 emissions. how do we balance those two things? you can't impress targets without expressing larger. >> shale gas is one, countries that used to import becoming exporters as far as gas is concerned and it has an impact on europe as well. we need to refine our targets in line with the new realities in the global markets and be consistent on that one. if you can't be better maybe you need to be smarter. >> where does your business go from here? you're waiting for new targets from the eu, seen subsidies for renewable energy creating havoc for your utilt base. how do you plan to address theser us looking forward in the business? >> it's unfortunate. we are at a standstill at this moment in time. we don't know what to invest in, how much co reduction, what about coal, what about gas, it's not clear. secondly we don't have the money to invest in those things. the energy sector in europ

the maid thanked u.s. fficials and rights groups for their support and the rights groups that support her same that despite this latest move that this was still a victory and it sends a strong message to other diplomats that cannot this -- exploit domestic workers. when it comes to amazing images, few can rival those captured by the mars rover. there was an opportunity to survive martian winters to bring an incredible view. to solo with the 10th anniversary of the landings. will betion of images displayed here in washington. at the since we gazed red planet, we wondered what mars was like. two robots have roped the surface for the last 10 years. >> this tells the story of mars that was very different in the past. mars was different. it was warmer, it was more wet, it was more like earth. this tells a story of exploration might not just the science but the process of uncovering that and driving for climbers across the surface of another world and exploring as you go. >> the exploration mission was launched i

this civil war is truly truly dreadful but the u.s. and its allies constantly criticize and point out atrocities committed by the assad regime but they're very tepid in criticizing opposition groups and particularly groups that most people believe are linked to al qaeda or groups like al qaeda. does this create the kind of atmosphere of compromise and diplomacy that's necessary i guess what i'm saying and putting in question the role of the united states here is that a fair broker. no no of course not there they are openly declare they want to stop to go drinking opposition group or groups no they're not being a fair broker the united states absolutely not i think when kerry went to the opening session of this conference among trow he again stood up and call for assad to go i mean i don't see where that helped any we really know the u.s. position why gratuitously stirred the thing up the united states is certainly one sided on this there's two sides to this war and the major outside powers are your own and saudi arabia i should introduc

the u.s. and middle east. this is about an hour. >> thank you for that kind introduction, and i'd like -- thanks to everybody for coming out in these conditions. i'm originally from england and will be heading back there shortly, so preparation after southern california for a british winter. just like to begin by saying a few words -- first, how i came to this subject, were describing the scenes of the book. now, as you have already heard, the -- my previous book, the mighty wurletzer about cia front groups, nongovernment organizations made up of anticommunist, private citizens, engaged in cold war propaganda overseas and later emerged these groups were in fact being secretly funded and, to some extent, managed by the cia. one group i didn't really engage with in the mighty wurlitzer was the american friend office the middle east. and mainly because its purpose didn't seem to be so much to do with the cold war as with promoting the arab world to an american audience, and also it was antizionist

we wish to see the u.s. committed to europe and the european allies committed to a fairer burden sharing. europe a challenge for and we will remain to arise the question among our european allies. burdens a question of sharing inside europe that needs to be addressed. many are frustrated with european level of distance -- of spending.- of defense we should not forget that between 2007 2011, an average of 13 to-- an average of 40,000 --.0,000 to area of theother world that contributes to such a military operation. the last u.s. tank departed from europe in march 2013. i don't know where that tank is, but we miss that tank. understand financial difficulties that you face, i have to underline the importance of american presence and visibility in europe and in the baltic region in particular. it reinforces nato's credibility. in times of diminished resources, having allies willing to share the burden becomes more important. this seems to be commonly ignored. survey, onlythe natof americans felt that helps countri

u.s. treasuries not to the stocks of u.s. companies. and so the dow has dropped leaving many americans wondering if the strong bull market of the last year will soon come to an end. david shuster, al jazeera. >> well, jeff dennis has been covering emerging markets for more than 20 years and says that the big worry is that market turbulence could eventually weigh on the american economy. he serves as the global head of emerging market strategy of ubs. that sort of addresses why my viewers should care about what's going on in emerging markets and is having an effect on our stock market. why this is happening in emerging markets why do we care? >> i don't think the biggest risk of this is that it will affect the u.s. market. in fact the house view here is that the turbulence we have seen so far have not deter the u.s. and the european markets improving this year. certain amount of risks, markets don't like the volatility that we've seen recently and also there is the possibility that down the road you could wealth effects on consumers not j

for baidu, which has not come to the u.s. rket, this is a market that is very different. >> apple's market share has slipped in china, opening the door for rivals making cheaper android smartphones. we will ask robin li what advice he has for tim cook next, in our special "baidu billionaire: inside the google of china." ♪ >> welcome back to our "bloomberg west" special, "baidu billionaire: inside the google of china." i'm emily chang. succeeding in china is the key to the future of many technologies, especially apple. apple's troubles in china have been mounting. a recent survey by a researcher found that apple use has dropped, putting it behind companies like lenovo and xiaomi. that is also behind market leader samsung, which commands 17% of the market. apple is focusing on building stores in smaller chinese cities. most importantly, apple still has not inked a deal with china mobile. i asked about his advice for tim cook. >> both are strong companies. strong, not only meaning their market position is strong, they have cash,

we're talking about whether the u.s. should continue it's decade-long history of $2 billion a year in aid toige he want. and how it could go down the road. david, you were held in captivity by the taliban for eight months. are you concerned that marginalizing the muslim brotherhood could force radicalizization of the group? >> i am worried. they killed hundreds of thousands of people. and there are some radicals that you can't negotiate with, and you have to deal with force, but i am asking what message are we sending? we said earlier, democracy works for others, but not with islamists, and as we were talking about in an earlier segment, the groups in the sinai, they are urging them to take up arms and join them in the insurgency against the egyptian military. and that's a worst case scenario, and it couldn't have happened much better for morsy who is losing popularity and forced out with the coup. >> we have a video. >> there may be new material, the behavior on this shows the community that we fully endorse the conseque

certainly from the u.s. treasury perspective, a strong dollar is the right place to be. >> yeah, but they've said that for years while the dollar consistently weakened. it's ridiculous that we believe in the strong dollar which there seems to be policies that have gone out of their way to make the currency weaker. >> obviously there was and there has been a real imperative to make sure the u.s. economy has recovered and has got ton a better place, which i think is, you know, now something that's happened and the u.s. economy continues to be progressing along that road to recovery. but there's no question that certain sectors have said and they have meant that all things in, they would rather have a strong dollar. in the end, of course, markets will determine these levels. there is nothing that can be said other than that. >> you must have thought occasionally, neal, saying this when we've seen at times the dollar is the second weakest currency after the yen. it's a bit harder to come out and say i believe in

and the u.s. intelligence agencies need enemies and they need enemies because the snowden revelations show they're actually spying on the american people in the people of the world so they need an al qaeda threat force but at the same time the u.s. has been the one funneling the arms to the armed opposition which in fact is strengthening al qaeda just as they did in afghanistan in one thousand nine hundred eighty nine some of bin laden was the precursor to al qaida then in the u.s. cia supported him brought to it both ways wrong great story thanks very much indeed for your perspective on this live from. but i've got a website dot com it's always there plenty for you to read including it's it's like something out of the pages of a murder thriller an argument over whether prose or poetry is the highest form of expression has come to a bloody end in russia after a former schoolteacher maybe's point with a knife before fleeing the scene. and freezing radiation in its tracks well because it depends beca

the u.s. official involvement in the middle east. it's even little official u.s. presence there prior to this period. what i merges is history of the cia in the middle east during these crucial decades, but with at its core, kermit roosevelt, partly a biography ever roosevelt, but also a group biography including archie roosevelt, his cousin and another grandson of tr, and this somewhat colorful, ram bun, personality and different background from the aristocrat roosevelt cousins, copeland, from the south of alabama, compared with roosevelt, he was from the wrong side of the tracks and really becomes an industry commentator after leaving the agency on intelligence affairs. he's also somewhat and probably the father of stuart copeland, the drummer for the police, in case you didn't know that. now, these three men, archie and miles copeland are trying to shape the cia's early program in the middle east, and as kim roosevelt's involvement in 1953 suggest this involves creating quite a lot of disord

the mit report as we were in there suggesting u.s. intelligence drew the wrong conclusions from it all the working on we think roughly the same figures technically why is the white house was washington been slow to react to this news or do you think well i don't think washington really wants to draw attention to the subsequent reports that are coming out mostly private endeavors by private individuals at this point any time you actually apply scrutiny of any sort to many. washington statements you find a lot of holes in it so you know when when when the chemical weapons attack first happened the u.s. used lofty terms an important sounding language to make us feel that they had it covered you know we had intelligence and we had observations of this sort and other in fact none of that is true the u.s. sort of backed into an argument that support a policy objective as they have done in many other instances in the middle east yeah i mean there's there's one thing going to the story of there's another thing going we've got high confidence i

first, the u.s. federal reserve is going to proceed cautiously with its tapering of asset purchases. some members expressed concern the tightening may be interpreted as a signal the central bank would taper quicker than initially expected. most members suggested there's no set time scale for scaling back the program. the majority in the media expect to keep its main rate low. can mario draghi ignore the back drop of slowing inflation? our team is located outside the european headquarters in frankfurt and they join us now. annette and geoff are both with us. welcome to you both. clearly, we're not worried about deflationary threats. is that the message, geoff? >> well, i think it will be a reiteration of a line given back in an interview in december where for the time being, i think mr. draghi will, yes, reiterate that this isn't a major concern at this stage. we will keep an eye on it. and, of course, a reiteration of we have plenty of tools in the box still and we will do whatever it takes. >> yeah.

for more than a decade, the u.s. military establishment has treated cyberspace as a domain of conflict, where it would need the capability to fend off attack or launch its own. that time is here, because someone sabotaged a top secret nuclear installation in iran with nothing more than a long string of computer code. >> we have entered into a new phase of conflict in which we use a cyberweapon to create physical destruction. [ticking] >> viktor bout, in my eyes, is one of the most dangerous men on the face of the earth. >> on the face of the earth? >> without a doubt. >> which is why the u.s. government launched an elaborate international sting to nab viktor bout. what makes bout so dangerous? and how did d.e.a. agents eventually grab him? the answers in our story later.

i think there's also the fear of the u.s. regulator towards litigation, further litigation, and that's toward the european banks. so i think that is an issue and something they will have to address, but there's a lot of complexity and unsureness toward the u.s. regulator. >> and bar clays is a bit lower today. >> yes, similar issues. the expectation is that barclays face income trading will also be weaker on this news. barclays had a good start to 2014, and this is kind of a slightly halt to that momentum because there's a real re-cross of how barclays would have performed and an important part of the business model moving forward. >> annette, we'll catch you later. >>> we'll bring you up to speed with global equities. no report from the u.s. today. the stocks are up on the session high. about even stevens between advances and decliners at the moment. the ftse 100 was up 1.3% on friday. mixed performance from u.s. equities. and the s&p down three points for the week. the ftse is fairly flat. the tdax is down a quarter percent.
