nations that use the walls of the united nations and the system upon which the united nations is built to allow those powers to act in the way that they do in order to exacerbate the situations or many and to for further and promote their policies and you know i agree peter you know we can talk about the list of crimes are committed by saddam hussein and we would be right we could talk about the crimes of their feet and we would be right but what about the crimes of other nations particularly the nations that are seen as being respectable the nations are seen to be beyond reproach those who use the holes of the united nations to pursue their powers the problem is and this is where i talk about the united nations i criticize the united nations i say that because it still embodies this kind of university ality this kind of global. consensus global coming together and that respectability that is why it is being used and abused by those who have the political clout and the military clout and economic pressure in order to further their prove their policies which may at times be totally inhu

this was the united states response initially. it is not the same as the american public response, which was extremely generous. we know now the statistics of how many thousands and hundreds of thousands of american families donated to the response. but the humanitarian response set up on the ground was a way that was very exclusive and exclusionary of the haitians themselves. i want to talk a little bit about the united nations in this context. initially and to this day, the humanitarian response was based on the united nations logistical base. it reinforces the message that haitians were a dangerous other. as one observer noted, regardless of what is real or perceived, people act according to their perceptions. a lot of well-meaning foreign aid workers, a lot of young and inexperienced or experience in other parts of the world and had never been to haiti before were being flown into haiti on short- term contracts to a military base behind guarded walls. this is where they did work in the relief and recovery effort. they quickly f

of the united nations. consequently you go she would move on this basis to un member states one. occupying the territories of another un member state that hell is tiny. see and moreover getting international recognition would determine all borders which are the nineteen sixty seven borders which include east jerusalem. in this case any further negotiations between the two parties should be based on the legitimate right of palestine to get its independence. but the. core issue for us since it's new commitments to go shisha is to be held between the two parties in the future if it. i mean best or mr. palestine will get even a nonmember state this it will give you rights is it true that the first thing palestine will do is to see you israel to take israel to the international court this is a truth and no this is not. we don't plan to use the international organizations to change the israelis so this is possible is it. this is all right that we have the right to do that. but if your question is whether we are g

the rest are exported from korea to the united states. the tariff that is currently applicable to exports of u.s. stands ates to corrkorea 8%. that means if you buy $30,000 car in korea, export it from the united states, then the tariffs amount to about $2,400. tremendous. >> so that will go? >> that will go eventually. that means less expensive american cars to consumers. >> psychologically will koreans buy american cars? >> as a matter of fact, last year for in-made cars -- foregin-made cars sold to the tune of almost 100,000 units. out of the 100,000 units, european cars accounted for share of that figure. about 70% were manufactured by european auto makers. >> now we're talking about adding into that mix american cars as well? >> it could be either adding to the market for american caor ams taking market share from european automakers. as i said, at the 8 percent tariff that is applicable to u.s. automakers will be gone, but the european and japanese auto makers will have to pay 8% tariffs in exports. that does create a price different

the biggest difference between mitt romney and president of the united states, the president of the united states has unleashed its campaign strategy already and that is to divide america, to tell americans who are not doing well right now and who are scared, that the pie of america is so only so big and if you want more, you have to take it from others. i know that mitt romney believes that the american pif can be grown bigger, that it can been infinite size because of the american inji knew tea, effort, and character. that is what this is about. that they want to believe that somebody's future can be greater, not trying to did i vice an ever shrinking pie among the american people. it's been, really in the end, an easy decision for me. i know that america needs a new course and i want it to be with the person who i believe will be the best person to lead america on that course and that's governor mitt romney. thank you very much. [ applause ] >> thank you, chris. let me turn to questions that you have. mark? >> the perry campaign in the past has approved that and what do you think of the

but it's largely one way, from the united states to champion u.s. government statistics show in 2010. chinese fdi stock in the u.s. was $5.9 million, just about one-tenth of the 50 billion of u.s. stock in china. that grows moe more and faster chinese capital to sustain jobs. many americans reaction negatively to chinese investment, and for that matter, any foreign investment, even though foreign direct investment is, in my judgment, the up mat vote of confidence in our system. fdi creates good jobs in the united states. 5.6 million, including over 2 million in manufacturing, and the average salary of these jobs is 33% higher than the national average. but the u.s. government estimates affiliates of chinese firms in the u.s. implied little more than 4,000 americans in 2009. so, there's plenty of room to grow, not least because chinese companies have been reluctant to invest, judging they won't be welcomed here, because they don't understand the investment process. there's a lesson here. chinese leads the world in foreign holdings of u.s. treasury sec

the courtyard for the lower units, there is an overhang which makes less like in the smaller units on the ground floor. it is like in the motel where the walkway hangs over the window. there is a larger courtyard that is not really helpful as a body. the thing with the bicycles -- that the bicycles are in front of a unit, even a small unit, i think takes away from the livability. those are tiny design tweaks. getting back to the six car spaces, there is room in the project to do it a little differently. again, i want to repeat to mr. gardner, i am not opposing the adaptive reuse of your project. i support it strongly. i just think it could be done better. i am looking for a better design, better designed units. commissioner borden: you have made some suggestions. on the last project, for example, we moved the bedrooms on the corner. we swapped the bedroom and living room. are the suggestions you could make here? i am trying to figure out -- i do not think the process is working. the only way to make it work better is if you have actual suggestions and made some with a bicycle parking

we always endeavor to coordinate our political steps with these poor areas if the united states tries to veto or as stated by many american officials think such a step would greatly harm the expectations and dreams of palestinians in having their own state when i took a. look at not only palestinians would be influenced by such as the us pretty ability would be shaken because america itself adopted the two state solution and endeavored to find an end to the conflict in the middle east through establishing a palestinian state living in peace and security side by side with israel then such an amendment. think this step we have taken is in line with the goal the american administration wants to achieve and we also believe the american veto would be directed against the many friends of the palestinian people as you know the palestinian bid has got the support of the vast majority of the un general assembly and in the world. therefore we think if america vetoes our vision it would be painful blue to the palestinians to u.s. credibility and policy as. us to do friends of the palestinian peo

reagan was the president of the united states then. listen to this. >> this mad dog of the middle east has a goal of a world revolution muslim fundamentalist revolution. >> mad dog of the middle east. that was ronald reagan back then. then we fast forward here. december 22, 1988, that is flight 103 lockerbie, 270 people killed. you see the devastation of the flight there. then in 2009, moammar gadhafi was trying to make amends with the world. visited the united states for the first time. 2003 he decided to give up his nuclear weapons program, allowed to visit the united nations and gave one of his legendary rambling speeches. >> democracy is not for the rich or for the one who terrorizes, the one who is more powerful than us should have democracdem no. >> everyone should have democrat circumstance something of course never, ever happened in libya. make that go away. bring this down. my apologies for that. march 2011, the beginning of operation odyssey dawn, to remove gadhafi from power, the united states and nato forces participating in

but right now the united states is not in the game. while it is true that the president is in the process of negotiating and agreement to create a transpacific partnership, we all know that the chances of it actually succeeding are almost nonexistent without trade negotiating authority. let's keep in mind in the trade negotiating authority has been the norm rather than the exception for much of this past century. congress first authorized recy proi procal trade negotiating authority in 1934 to help pull the u.s. economy out of the great depression. that authority was renewed 11 times between 1934 and 1962. in 1974, the congress first authorized the president to negotiate tariff and nontariff barriers and bring them back for congressional consideration on an he can expedited basis without amendment. every president since 1974 has sought that authority from congress. president ford argued that the legislation -- quote -- "enables the united states to play a leading role in multilateral negotiations." unquote. president carter said that t

world and to hold the united nations succumb to will for the injustice done to the. woman but that it was the united nations which divided tell us time into two states the official. say that this we are yet to establish to one that our state tell us. to be established in. that way for the state well the do mornings maybe. may be different but the standards within the united nations should be the same and here today we see another case of double standards at least that's this is what it looks like let's take a look at how israel was accepted into the un six decades ago here's a story from spotlights the demitra. of the jewish state proclaiming the independence and applied for e.u. when membership in one thousand nine hundred eighty eight however at the time it found itself a war with its arab neighbors to be accepted into the year when it had to prove itself a peace loving nation full when two failed un bids israel succeeded in becoming a un member only after it signed armistice is with egypt jordan and lebanon no peace agreement with the palestinians was required of

states to bring down the wrath of the united say so but the problem is is that the united states is deals irrationally with iran it's not a rational player when it comes to iran and this is this is just a part of that no one in iran believes this story i don't believe that many people in the united states believe this story but the fact that the u.s. government pushes such an absurd story i think it just shows that there is a very little hope for for a rational approach in any time in the future with iran in the near future at least when you think about their man. i mean because again i mean professor marandi gave a pretty good detailed account of the story to date again you know what does the rand benefit from all of this i mean and the absurdity of it all unless more evidence comes out the ties it makes it a tighter case it looks like utter nonsense. as i said i think there's a lot about this case that does not smell right to me. but i think the point about reading spy novels i think that goes both ways i think if the claim that mr marandi seems to be making that the obama adminis

we are splitting it down the middle between the united states and tehran. the government has this policy of cielo problems with neighbors before the air of spurring, the two flagships of the policy for engagement of iran and syria and with respect to the policy that i was advocating that the united states should be leading the region against the template of the u.s. iranian contest. as i saw that the turks were actually legitimate and the government sold what they were doing to the obama administration as turkey supplanting iran, turkey polling syria away from the iran and pulling hamas away from iran between the israelis and the series and hamas and so forth and the administration accepted that kind of turkish neutralism if you can call it that was advantageous to the united states and my own reading is a was not. turkey continues to play a similar role today. it's changed because of the uprising in syria but turkey remains and a brake on a tougher policy in the united states on the regime and as turkey is somewhat supplanted iran and syria in the region it

also, up at the united nations. susan rice, the ambassador to the united states, has been meeting with members of the u.n. security counsel. we understand those meetings are over and she has been doing the same thing. essentially, explaining how serious ly the u.s. the u.s. views this. these are countries that want more information. we're told that the state department offered to do it right from the beginning and several countries have taken them up on id and specifically, we have china has wanted more information on that. you can imagine because china has a lot of trade and economic interest with iran. russia is the next one. ditto on that. they have a lot of economic interests and finally, the last would be turkey, which would be a major player in the world. these teams, we're told are made up of senior officials. how it was supposed to have gone down and how the case was made by the government. >> jill, you know, here's what i don't understand, the target of this alleged plot was saudi arabia's ambassador here in

it is really a lose-lose for the united states. i want to commend the president, we wish he would have sent these three agreements to us sooner. i'm grateful he's sending them now. it's very important that we pass it. what we have seen is an estimate by a nonpartisan u.s. international trade commission, estimated that by signing these three trade agreement we can increase 250,000 new jobs to the united states. 250,000 new jobs. that's without any stimulus. it's without any taxpayer money going into it. it is jobs that people who are unemployed today, that can be employed, and it will increase at least $13 billion in trade. so i want to urge our congress, i want to urge the house, i want to urge the senate, to vote for these, pass it, let's get going on these trades again, mr. chairman. thank you for your leadership. mr. brady: chairman herger, thank you for your leadership on trade throughout the years. i know especially for california but throughout the country, trade means jobs, new customers means jobs. the longer we delay, the m

it is not too late for the united states. i know that together -- together we can takthis nation back and we can restore it to the foundation that the founders so brilliantly dave and fought and boldand gave their liveast measure to secure for us. i thank you. [applause] >> congresswoman, we are privileged to have you tonight. what would you specifically do to prevent abortion on demand and tibet -- and defend traditional marriage. >> on abortion on demand, i would be fully supportive of a federal constitutional amendment to define life beginning at conception. i believe in life from conception until natural death. i would support all pro-life language that comes across my de. i recentlyntroduced be informed choice act so that everyone prior to having an abortion would have toisten and see her unborn baby before making that all-important decision to choose life. [applause] it is also very important for everyone in this room to know we already have taxpayer funded abortion. obamacare, pour the first time in history, gave us tax

the unit merger that has been presented as the fact that it has been used as a single unit from the very beginning, and probably the issue that was brought up was more about the entire handling of live work units and whether or not their business is taking place in those that legitimize their status. it is a much broader issue, and probably many of these have businesses going on. but what is before us is whether or not it is appropriate to legalize this use that has been the use of the situation since 1996. and as was pointing out, we are not costing affordable housing in making these -- legalizing the units into one legal unit. much of the permit has already gone forward from the city on this so it would seem to me

this is a great day for the united states and leadership. >> thank you very much, indeed. ore on the death of colonel gadhafi. stay with us. >> i warned colonel kadaffy we would hold his regime accountable for any new terrorist attacks launched against american citizens. >> this is one toughnot so nice guy. they got a chance now. what happened? in this case, america spent $2 billion total and didn't lose a single life. >> today's death of moammar gadhafi marks a definitive end to a dictatorship of more than four decades. colonel gadhafi's career began as the leader of the revolution 42 years ago and ended as the victim of one. it was in 1969 age 27 that he led a bloodless coo against the reigning king. his goal of an islamic socialist state defaulted into a classic military dictatorship. with him at the top and all dissent punishable by death. his support for the ira and columbia made him an international pariah. libya was involved in the bombing of a berlin nightclub that led ronald reagan to use this famous description. >> this mad dog of the mideast has a goal of a world

what is the united states really number one. on challenge. where nobody can come close to our level of dominance on a level. korean. food growing oil production. in the capital with only one thing and that is the. problems are left to the insiders and the insiders on the whole are committed to the us empire. and to run the world. they want nuclear threats. and so long as the leaders in the us are ard to committed to the use of nuclear weapons the rest of the world is going to keep theirs or get their. and the prospects for human survival are not great. and almost out of engaging in the surging of this university of forty three years. that i believe is over the shape of the employer the u.c. system and into ireland is the modern weapons for little activity. i think it's absolutely wrong for any university to be involved in making weapons of mass destruction weapons that are illegal under international law weapons that by any definition of morality are immoral weapons that kill indiscriminately weapons that could destroy civilization ok seriousl

what is the nature of the business being conducted in this unit? have they filed every year, the statements and the tax forms to show that a business is being conducted there? was this used described as a limitation when they bought it? if you allow live work units to become residential units, we have been cheated out of affordable housing. it is true that this is not an affordable units, but this is a huge issue. housing affordability was ignored. i am asking you to get the additional information, continue this. if you don't have the information to show that this is live work, and they have continually kept of the status. you cannot find it is a legal live work canada. president olague: commissioner antonini? commissioner antonini: i did check with the interest that i have, a very small interest in what is classified as a live work unit. it has occupied my family member and is more than 500 feet away and we have already established that. i am not quite sure if that is what she was speaking to, but i believe that is the only reason why i would have

then in 1989, suddenly the united states decides to quit. when that happens, there was a strategic policy -- sanctions on pakistan. this was seen as extremely negatively of the people of pakistan. we have been used and then betrayed. this is a feeling of the people of pakistan. >> is there feeling like that today? >> yes. >> we know this has happened. we were all alone. we were funding for ourselves. the taliban came up in 1996 in pakistan was all alone funding for its all. contents 9/11 in the united states -- now people are asking how do we know we will not be betrayed again? this has a historical past. until 1989, everything was happening to pakistan. we are planning to leave in 2014. that has its impact on the people again. now, pakistan has to think -- i am not speaking on behalf of the government, but my personal view is that certainly there must be some analysis going on what will happen in afghanistan if the united states leaves and unstable afghanistan. are we returning to the situation where they were buried in every ethnic group wa

the united states is one of his closest allies. i happen to think that he is a dictator and the u.s. has no business supporting african dictators. when i list one or two things to be done, i return to this point. i should have said looking at u.s. policy toward south africa i am confining myself to the last 50 years since africa became independent. to me the striking pattern that you see in independent african countries is the shocking closeness of washington being allies with so many dictators. the biggest poster child is in condo --congo. it was part of the cold war struggle. when i look at you as foreign policy what i am looking to see is achievement of mutual interest. u.s. interest and of course african interests and therefore it seems to me there is u.s. support for dictators in africa. none of them has a good record. in support of dictators was going to help an african country and right now right across the border you have u.s. support for rwanda. the reason i put it under this category of foreign policy tinge by racism is if

what we're facing now in the united states is a critical situation a dangerous situation which for plain terms are truly running the country they're very flaky layout politics friends and that's why we're out on the streets all over america to say tell you that it's a corruption and graft within the business community that throttles over into the political situation it's a creative fine it's a time for people to really look closely at what the pressure points are on these politicians and on the corporation says as obama said you know he said some of the things they're doing is not illegal but they are immoral and that's really the the crux of when you have these him or are greedy pigs that are taking billions for their personal wealth and don't care when we have homeless all over the world that we have kids that don't have good education is that we have room set of the mouth and you have to grieve in pigs that the talk just keep sucking up more and more billions of dollars just for their pockets. are correspondents are keeping an eye on developments as people around the world make their

united kingdom. we see that again and again, with most of the operations that took place in the west and the united states. since 2009, for example, anderson, most of the attacks, if not all of the attacks. most of that if not all, that took place in the united states were not planned and organized in pakistan, that was shifted to the arabian peninsula of al qaeda, shifted to yemen because qaeda in the arabian peninsula he volunteered himself as a more and more increasingly important target. >> you've also got some new information about who helped the united states track him down, correct? >> that's right. >> you know, the saudi government has a very strong counterterrorism service, and the united states works pretty closely with them. they did provide us those tracking numbers in the cargo plane case. and i'm told that this saudi group was instrumental in helping provide target information about awlaki. not surprising, the same sources who would have given them the tracking numbers would clearly have had access to the inner workings of al qaeda in terms of tracking and targeting. >> the president of yeme

to cause harm to the united states. now, that brings us to a question of the real problem which is the border. the u.s. border with mexico and its ports is a national security issue. it is not an immigration issue, that is a completely different issue. it's a border security, national security issue. last year from the, i believe the same report that you have provided, there were 663 individuals from special interest countries that were captured by our law enforcement. now, special interest countries, those are countries where terror organizations originate. saudi arabia, pakistan, afghanistan. that's where these 663 people were from that were captured by our law enforcement, trying to come into the united states. and they weren't coming over here looking for work that americans won't do. they were coming over here for mischief reasons. and that's because the boarder's open -- border's open. the world knows, if you can get to mexico, you can get to the united states and that was the plan in this bold endeavor to commit t

how did you get to the united states? >> guest: my family immigrated with the war in lebanon and everything so i grew up in pennsylvania and went to school in pennsylvania. my first real job after graduate school was fbi stationed in new york. i moved to new york in 1997 and continued to live in new york throughout my fbi career and after my fbi career i still live in new york. >> host: what years did you serve? >> guest: 1997-2005. >> host: what did you work on? >> guest: i focused on terrorism. discussed many of the missions are was involved in and cases that i worked on in the book. the focus of the great majority of my career was bin laden and al qaeda. >> host: do you speak arabic? >> guest: yes. >> host: where were you on 9/11? >> guest: i was not in the united states. i was working on investigating the uss cole attack in yemen. we received a phone call from headquarters asking myself and my partner to stay in yemen and follow up on some leads concerning 9/11. that was september 12th. i was really shocked. why do we

learning h new details about the man charged with plotting to assassinate the saudi ambassador to the united states. also, the probe into a controversial gun running program now escalating with a subpoena targeting the u.s. attorney general, eric holder. and herman cain is blasted by his rivals over a so-called 999 tax plan. we'll show you what it would really do. i'm wolf blitzer. you're in "the situation room." -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com >>> we're following new developments in the alleged iranian terror plot to assassinate the saudi ambassador to the united states. among the latest, the u.s. has slapped sanctions on an iranian airline it says provided materials support for the plot. in tehran, the foreign ministry is protesting the allegations to a swiss diplomat in tehran. switzerland represents the two countrie countries. saudi officials are blasting iran over the plot. prince turkey, the former saudi intelligence chief, the former chief in washington warning, i'm quoting, someone in iran is going to have to pay the price. we're also digging deeper into the american citizen ch

to the united states. according to the complaint filed today in the southern district of new york, he is alleged to have orchestrated a $1.5 million assassination plot with gholam shakuri and other iranian co-conspirators. now, the quds force is a unit of the iranian revolution yaer corps. it is also suspected of sponsoring attacks against the coalition forces in iraq and was designated by the department of treasury in 2007 for providing material support to the taliban and other terrorist organizations. the complaint alleges that this conspiracy was conceived, was sponsored and was directed from iran and constitutes a flagrant violation of u.s. and international law, including a convention that explicitly protects diplomats from being harmed. in addition to holding these individual conspirators accountable for their alleged role in this plot, the united states is committed to holding iran accountable for its actions. the two are charged with conspiracy to murder a foreign official, conspiracy to use a weapo

it has the real cost for the united states. n his first term, the administration of president george w. bush emphasized that the confrontations in the americas. but in the second term, his administration at that did a very different tone. why? because it became painfully clear that his initial approach did not review a centrist. and in fact, it did considerable damage. the u.s. is still recovering from the colossal loss of influence in the region that resulted from those policies. our constant post-9/11 lectures on terrorism to the region by this effort and homegrown terrorism for 50 years left at that piece. today, much of what latin america perceives that we hold them at arms length or worse as the title of this hearing implies. rather we see them as a problem rather than the partners. to its credit, the obama administration ignobly leon that it understood the need to chart a different course. in his speech to this region's leaders, a few months after taking office on the president obama sought to defuse the threats and securi

that is the wrong listened for israel and the united states. israel should not acquiesce to one set of rules for itself and another for all other states. under international humanitarian law the obligation to investigate and prosecute war crimes falls on nations accused. only when a country has shown itself unable or unwilling to discharge its obligations are international bodies authorized to pursue war crimes investigations. israel's devotion to law armed conflict is of its soldiers and citizens should be proud and not cooperate in the abrogation of rights and responsibilities as a sovereign nation. the saga of the goldstone report provides an opportunity to reoriented public discussion of the laws of war not only for israel but the united states. like its only liberal and democratic ally in the middle east the u.s. is locked in a war against transnational terrorism and the u.s. is subject to the abuse of international law of war by those who wish to criminalize the exercise of the u. s's right of self-defense. at the end of its reconsideratio

it would give the united states leverage to go back to the united nations. ot in some of the other plots conducted overseas, is there some reason to do it here, would iran gain politically or was the calculation this is a place they thought they could pull it off? >> this is a radical group of people. the major story, in looking at government of iran over the last two years, is the increased radicalization of the government. ahmadinejad, believe it or not, an odious individual, is not part of the radical element in that government. the qud force, the revolutionary guards are. they are increasingly powerful. but they're isolated. most of them never traveled much around the world. and obviously, they have taken on, i think, more than they're going to be able to digest in linking the united states and saudi arabia, provoking an instantaneous crisis. it may be now that iran becomes the most important, most difficult foreign policy challenge on our agenda for president obama and his administration and the republican candidates debating tonight. these are charges a

calls upon the united states of america to reconsider their position. syria's president has told russian television the forces fighting his regime are armed and dangerous and putting civilians at risk by shot al assad also said he's ready to work with the opposition parties that have emerged during the months of uprising against his government. reports. strong words coming from syrian president bashar al assad to where the conflict this country's been going on for almost eight months now in that interview to the russian channel he did say that any attempt to destabilize the country will result in what he called an earthquake that will reverberate not just in the region but will have a global implications he also stressed that syria is most definitely not libya it's a different situation altogether and he did voice out what he at his government think is a real cause of the conflict in his country. today we have hundreds of soldiers police and security forces among the dead how were they killed during peaceful demonstrations because some slogans being show

in there in the united states first of all and also joined by people the other countries can we call it can color the the great act so we're socialist revolution people are they actually do want socialism do they well it's it's it's very it's a littlest in syria it's a catalyst here in the united states sometimes not is explicitly using words that you know name capitalism or in your illusion but it's very much against the bad of signing an sec there all of our wealth has gone sucked up into new finance sector and they're not spreading it around they're not investing it they're not lending you know and that's part of the economic crisis and united states and i think we're seeing it everywhere is that as your introduction said eighty. and trees now on saturday we had protests all across the united states we were going to say she was involved in the one and here in san francisco and it was thousands of people out in the street we marched from the federal reserve bank city where the city government is headed back down to the federal reserve bank which controls the interest rates and unit

the current and the one past president of the united states. obably doesn't come as a surprise that george w. bush was not a very popular president in europe. and when barack obama was elected, and in his first year the approval of the united states president skyrocketted. the last year george w. bush, 20% of the europeans approved his handling international affairs. the first year of obama's presidency over 40%. >> but isn't it a fact that the europeans when there's a conservative president, before he's done anything, say he's a cowboy, expect the worst, and then analyze his actions to find the worst. isn't that a fairly common approach to conservative presidents? >> yeah, i would say that's a fair description. >> and it hasn't really changed much over years has it? this anti-pathy to american conservative presidents. they said awful things about somebody who did amazing things in europe, ronald reagan. >> that's on the part of europe actually. because as i mentioned most of the obama bounce happened in western europe. central and eastern europ

i almost in that part of the world and certainly in yemen, and so that is a big victory for the united states. but i'll tell you that, john. the important thing is the united states has indicated ever since osama bin laden was taken down that they can run down and find and shoot and kill using drones or airstrikes and incredible number of al- qaeda leaders. it's astonishing -- they must have gotten a huge volume of intel from bin laden's computers or somewhere else because they've been killing them left and right, and the al- qaeda reports inside al-qaeda are saying all our guys are being killed! >> do you think that this launders the appearance of the drone? -- killing people? >> i don't know if a drone did it. you hear american fighter planes when we're taping here, but i think the united states has a capacity basically to run down where they are, find them and target to and kill them, with extra facility more than we can do under george w. bush. >> the drone has a bad history of killing innocent people. >> it has collateral damage. any bomb is killing -- >> is that what we're reduci
