sudanese civil war during the ninety's explains why the you are sworn to another country on the world. united states was basically the midwife for self sudanese independence united states in its real world posed to the khartoum base of government not least because it would seem as being anti israel and was perceived as being pro palestinian not only that but there is oil in sudan and the oil in the south in this part i don't do that nor and then there's the china question the chinese oil company is deeply invested in south sudan and for a way the chinese was also seen as a tool through which could be accomplished through independence and secession for south sudan chevron felt that it would be in their best interest if south sudan work to see because it would be easier to exploit the oil in a divided country as opposed to a united country that was a major reason driving the split do the math we're talking about hundreds of thousands of barrels produced in south sudan and with oil let's say roughly at one hundred dollars a barrel you can see that this is a pretty penny. europe is showing tentat

>>> now for our "what in the world" segment. the unitedtates walked into a skirmish this week, not with china, not with iran but with india. why are indians so angry at america? they say that the united states mistreated an indian consulate worker arrested this week for allegedly falsifying a visa application for her live-in maid and paying that maid less than a third of the u.s. minimum wage. the facts of the case continue to emerge but the incident highlights that for all their similarities, big democracies, partners, india and america are very different societies. despite its impressive growth, india remains quite poor even if the consulate the worker's maid was only paid $300 a month, she was making 2 1/2 times the indian national average. second, india has a recent history of diplomats being involved with visa fraud. this shouldn't be surprising unfortunately. india ranks 94th in the world for transparency and why are indian politicians feeding this outrage? they are up for election next year with 700 million eligible voters, this wil

low in the developed world, that the developing countries have huge competitives, advantages to be able to export and perhaps put industries sectors, regions in -- in the developed world in the united states maybe canada, e.g. create job losses, but i think we should look at this slightly more wildly. for example, when i talk agriculture, the australians would like to access the market. the americans would like to access the canadian the z the japanese market, and they would like to protect their markets so it is all within the developed world. so the equations and the combinations are fairly complex in this agreement, and don't just cut across developed and developing countries. >> why does this even exist in the first place? what are the pressures right now in the pacific world? some of the fastest growing economie economies in the. why do this at all? well, because these are the most dynamic markets in the world. and asia is growing like crazy. it has two-third oz if world's gdp. and world supply chains all run somehow through asia. so what is happening, ray, is that asia was going through an economic integration process that didn't include the united states. because we hand bee

the world. read that speech by adly stevens. he was governor of my home state and a democrat. he was a cerebral type. one of his slogans was egg heads of the world unite, we have nothing to lose but our yokes. but this speech in 1954 was brilliant. if you think about the people that do stand up and support people and understand how precious what we have -- you know, i have a couple titanium hips and shoal shoulders. i had a therapist coming out and after a couple days i said i can do this on my own. and then he said do you mind if i say something personal and i said go ahead. and he said i came from nigeria and this county is so special. i don't think those of you who were born here appreciate it. if you went to any embassy all across the globe at 10-12 a.m. you would see people sleeping on the lawn trying to be first in line to get a card to come to the united states. it is that important. and we have to pause and think how lucky we are. and how special this country is. and given that i guess my answer to that question is -- and i tried to write this in the last chapter of my book -- it is i think, not a good period for our country right now. but i t

the world. the eastern and western parts of the world are typically europe, the united states, russia, china, and then when you begin to look at some of the more challenged parts of the world, it is really in the southern hemisphere of the world or that is where we are seeing a lot of these challenges today. that is why we see ourselves being drawn into places that are relatively new locations where we are having to play military forces in our intelligence system being challenged to understand these new threats. as i said, our changing operational environment demands new approaches. urban terrain will need to be the dominant were fighting environment, bringing with it a unique set of challenges. those challenges, i believe, deal with precision. , mountain, of desert bejungle warfare, you could less precise in terms of the application of military power. in the day and age of urban , and we see this in the these werehdad, urban areas. as we see more of the population an urbanization effect, the precision of our capability will be key. the other way i describe it is understanding. it should be a pri

budget battle that we had which was probably the most believable thing to show the rest of the world about the united states i've ever seen in my almost seventy years on this earth and the congress seems as if it is lost its bearings of late it doesn't seem to be able to deal with foreign policy issues or domestic issues at all and this is just another case in point when you have senators like schumer. minda is who are more or less taking a position against their own president it makes it even more ridiculous especially when it is as i said such a war mongering position and let's be very clear it is a war mongering position right and it does like you said it does seem like it would take that achievement away from president obama and you know there are a lot of democrats that are behind this bill which is interesting but one key republican sponsor of the legislation senator mark kirk has said this of the bell he said quote the american people rightfully distrust iran's true intentions and they deserve an insurance policy to defend against iranian deception during negotiations i mean do you think it's

pocker see that the west would see that other countries can't have such things i don't want any weapons in this world but it's not right for us in the west and in particular particularly the united states to say that we can have all these weapons and the rest of the world will bomb you to the stone age if used to even try to think to defend yourself it's beyond hypocrisy it's ridiculous the u.s. needs to disarm and the world needs to insist on that now i've read in your blog that you said this world meets one thing about all others and that sanity but doesn't set it depends on what side of the argument you're on no i think we were all saying when we were children and unfortunately what passes as education is actually indoctrination and through indoctrination we've turned into really largely a bunch of dupes who've been slaves ourselves without even knowing it but when you regain the capacity to think for yourself to actually become human it becomes very clear for instance if we look at these politicians who historically lied to us over and over and over again and we realize that the war making industries are absolutely inherently in interested in perpetuating war and if we look

the congress at this time made in financing. those are more important in terms of the united states's emergence as a world power, things like the issuance of greenbacks which took place for the first time in 1862 that began to knit the united states together in a monetary union, things like the first national income tax which allowed the government to extract a measure of resources from the country at large. domestic financial innovations when not all on lincoln. he advocated some of them. they mostly came from congress and passed in congress but those things are more useful things to look at in terms of the united states's emergence as a world power than borrowing but the united states borrow heavily throughout the period leading up to the civil war and this was one of the kinds of the whig conundrum of the party at the time, on the one hand there was a historical animosity with britain after the revolution, but war of 1812. on the other hand we depended heavily on european money and whigs in particular depended on it to finance internal improvements to build roads and canals and all these things that were important in my view

is important to the united states and it's important for the world. as i talk with my counter arts in asia and europe, i hear over and over again we need the united states to be the strong lead they're you are. so in the i.m.f. what we see is with our contribution which is less than 20% of the entirety of the i.m.f., we have enormous influence. we have veto over important decisions and the influence that goes with that to help drive decision making to serve u.s. industry and a sounder global commitment i think that's important for the united states and it's important for the world. we are already seeing if the united states in any way steps back, there is a rush to come in and kind of starts to fraction, kind of break apart some of that influence. i don't think we should let that happen. it is too important. >> i think in some ways we are wanting to become isolists in the world and i have problems with expansions, things we do but i am concerned about the imf and our leadership. my other question -- i represent kansas city, missouri, not kansas. that i

budget battle that we had which was probably the most unbelievable thing to show the rest of the world bout the united states i've ever seen in my almost seventy years on the summer. in the congress seems as if it has lost its bearings of late it doesn't seem to be a live view of foreign policy issues or domestic issues at all and this is just another case in point and we have senators like shimmer. and of menendez who are more or less taking a position against their own president. it makes it even more ridiculous especially when it is as i said such a war mongering position and let's be very clear. it is a war mgering position. granted that's like he said it does seem like it would take at that achievement away from president obama and that he now it's all there a lot of democrats that are behind this bill which is interesting. i've got one key republican sponsor of the legislation senator mark kirk has said this in the down he said quote the american people rightfully distrust iran is true intentions and they deserve an insurance policy to defend against iranian deception during negotiations i mean
