u. s. now has much more knowledge that didn't 2001 and can deal with them very quickly. james, thanks very much. obviously as we get more speakers coming up at the u. n. g, a, we are going to be coming back to you, but for now, thank you very much. indeed. i want to talk to my one of the shara, he's all just said a senior political analyst. he's joining us from london. one, how do you think countries who might have hoped that the us would support them in any internal struggle is by moving troops and might react to this news? now, as far as the by the ministration is concerned, that military power is not going to be a tool of 1st resort, but until of last resort. what of course, i'm skeptical. i mean, you know, i take every word that precedent by the said with a grain of salt or many, many grains of salt. if you just look back at the speech that his boss, his former boss, president obama gave in his 1st speech to the united nation 2009. you would see astonishing parallels between what by then just said, and what obama said back in 2009 obama came after bush and biting came off the trunk. and both of them had made so many promises about rejoining the world i
