the nature of administration the united states the iranians agreed to talks with the united states in iraq again the united states simply increased sanctions against the country and now as soon as president rouhani comes to power the united states implements even further sanctions are on the eve of his inauguration which is extraordinary it shows that the united states simply does not have goodwill how is the iranian government. going to convince it be convinced that the united states can sit down and talk with the united states when the united states behaves in such an irrational and hostile way and on the other hand the united states at this stage has isolated itself. are improving relations thanks to obama with the. washington's with the chinese with the indians with brics countries and other non-western countries and even in europe we see countries buried dissatisfied with american behavior for example in the case of. both both in britain for example parliament rejected war which i think came as a surprise to all of us who you know with the former prime minister in england support

about that also yes ok all right yes it does united states the united states does so does russia so do other states as well but instability is not in the interest of the united states instability is very definitely not in the interest of israel a small country surrounded by hostile neighbors that have made war on it half a dozen times in the last sixty five years so no it's ridiculous to say that this is somehow serving the interests of the united states or the interest of israel stability is internet is in the interests of both of these countries as in the interests of the west in general it's frankly in the interest of russia as it is countering other regional threats the threat of terrorism and very definitely the threat of a. iran getting nuclear weapons capability ok george. well i find this extraordinary the say that if america wanted stability there was always a very simple way to go about stability there would have been to avoid getting involved in libya for all get off his regime was extremely stable and a good ally of the united states during the war on terror the american

of the united states they felt they were viewing the united states the role of reagan but they were not they were viewing the united states of franklin delano roosevelt it's the america today that is the america of ronald reagan and other words this policies are now really being felt i find that many american and western economists in general so indoctrinated their sort of embrace. capitalist system so just as blindly as they used to decry the communist system but when we look at the successful models both among developed and developing countries usually except for models represent some mixture of capitalism with. very generous those of socialist parlous is no where would be one example china is a very different example but they are also mixing the two doesn't mean that pure capitalism doesn't exist on may be simply not realistic in the same way that pure communism wasn't really but i think you're getting at a very important point i mean there is no such thing as just capitalism there are many varieties of capitalism and so the variety that we have now i guess is the most pure form that

going to convince it be convinced that the united states can sit down and talk with the united states when the united states behaves in such an irrational and hostile way and on the other hand the united states at this stage has isolated itself. are improving relations thanks to obama with the. russians with the chinese with the indians with brics countries and other non-western countries and even in europe we see countries buried dissatisfied with american behavior for example in the case of. both both in britain for example parliament rejected war which i think came as a surprise to all of us who you know with the former prime minister in england supporting the war and being an american political and italy for example and germany being opposed to any aggression by the united states so the world is changing and obama really needs to change is his relationship with iran otherwise the only allies he has left is saudi arabia israel an apartheid state and the al qaeda like groups in syria and the war and others in libya as well the united states has destroyed and the europeans have destr

the non units can't be altered. and section 1 city and county h prohibits the now a units in the public works dr district but they have to be consistent with the planning district. today's ordinance would first allow non-coming from units to be expand but not beyond the envelope as it you fisted in 2013 and the supervisor will propose a further amendment that would prohibit the expansion of units where there's been a no fault e visitation in the years and finally it would allow non-conforming units to expand in a similar way in the public works dr striktd for the department remedies approval and we felt this will reduce the likelihood that those would be less affordable. we there feel there's a change that would make a naturally unit into a smaller and less affordable unit by setting a the building envelope as it was on january 1st, 2013, we first say that the non conforming units could be expanded. as proposed the units will be limited in size and scope. that concludes any presentation i'm available for questions.

high drama unfolding at the united nations this morning. the president getting ready to take the world stage at what could be the most critical time for diplomatic relations in his presidency. here's what we know. and the world and what we'll be watching for. will president obama meet with the new president of iran or at least shake his hand. the state department says there's no official meeting scheduled. >>> syria, the u.s. is still pushing a resolution that would make the chemical weapons deal legally binding, meaning if syria doesn't comply, the threat of military action is there. so far russia is not on board. >>> plus, of course, israel and palestine, peace talks restarting this summer, but are there signs of progress? president obama has a one-on-one meeting with palestinian minister abbas today. let me bring in congressman this morning. >> good morning. >> you are one of the folks who signed a letter urging diplomacy with iran after the election of the new president. do you think president obama should meet with him today? >> i thin

powers by that i mean the united states and russia. are in favor of that certainly we know the united states and russia are not in favor of that i think that the saudis are somewhat less clear cut in their view on this obviously and the problem is clearly on the part of the major factors in this situation. the major outside powers they do not want that to happen and i think that is why there is a degree of agreement here between the united states and russia that this whatever happens must be short of assisting the jihad as in gaining a foothold or expanding their foothold and being able to be the primary arbiter of power in syria i agree with you because that's when russia's major issue during all this when he for you know a cynic would say and i look at the a ray of forces the united states supporting military intervention and it's all about iran it's not about syria it's not about the syrian people it's not about democracy it's just a great way to get to iran and and this is you have to destroy syria to do it and this is you can make

states and also for israel to seemingly present a united front prior to leaving israel for new york netanyahu said that he was going to use this opportunity at the united nations to show the truth about to rant particularly now while all these plays in trees are being said last week when the iranian president rouhani addressed the united nations general assembly who criticized that address severely saying that was full of hypocrisy and cynicism at the time he ordered the israeli delegation to boycott the station and warned the international community not to be fooled by signs of so-called moderation by the regime government we will not be fooled by half measures that merely provide a smokescreen for iran's continual pursuit of nuclear weapons. and the world should not be fooled. on sunday the israeli internal security the shin bit announced that it had a wasted a belgian citizen with iranian our region for allegedly spying against israel now the incident happened already three weeks ago but the information has only now been released while netanyahu is in the united states and of cou

saving lives has long been a convenient pretext for fighting wars and it isn't bulky again as the united states considers a punitive strike against syria and while the us politicians seem to be taken on board a by b. yes we can mantra the rest of the world is more on the side of do no harm we each of the two is in service of human rights while to discuss that i'm now joined by counter-offer executive director of human rights watch mr roth i really appreciate you being here if our viewers go to rise watch a website now and check some of the news releases that were issued over the last few weeks they can find all the usual suspects russia and china as in bob way libya even israel. but what they wouldn't be able to find is any criticism of the proposed serious strikes against syria doesn't mean that human rights watch is in favor of these proposed attack but we've actually put out two statements on this subject and so i mean i do refer people to our website h r w dot org the we are so explicitly not taking a position for or against particular airstrikes our main focus as you can find in the

states, ande united i really am, in part, repeating said, why would the united states on economic grounds, and maybe for political and security issues, and those may overwhelm everything, but on even economists, that is very hard-nosed about these issues, negotiating a deal with the united states, and the access,tates has full to turkey's ttip market, what interest does the united states have to give turkey access? a question about the quality of the agreement, not necessarily whether any type of an agreement can be negotiated. , am sure there are issues border issues, etc., etc., which and there arefic, some that are not the province of trade or the european union, but also the country level, which can be included. and there was a second part to the question. i cannot remember what it was. one on trade. >> the extent to which turkey might be ready for deeper integration. my cents, my reading is that turkey has done a lot in terms of taking on the competition , and there are statistics turkish commercial law basically conforming to the eu model, and we would want to define that. they woul

threat to the united states. i think these are open to interpretation but what is not open to interpretation is an event like what we have now, whether or not the congress should have to give authorization. >> it is interesting we are having this debate on a request by the president for us to act under the war powers resolution. i think senator mccain is correct. this is a subject that the president and congress -- it is a debate we should have in congress. i am a strong supporter of the war powers act. i think presidents should adhere to the powers. i think the resolution that we have here is properly drafted. it says where the president has authority under the constitution. the president's responsibility to carry out laws passed by congress. we have already covered this. there is a specific reference to the war powers in this constitution. in this legislation. we are not going to be able to resolve in this committee the long-standing dispute between the executive and legislative and judicial branches of governm

united 93, united niner-three, do you hear cleveland?lew on without radio contact, flight 77 with hijackers at the helm closed in on washington, d.c. >> several evident dulles controllers observed a primary radar target tracking eastbound at a high rate of speed, end quote, and notified reagan airport. faa personnel at both reagan and dulles airports notified the secret service. >> at the white house the secret service rushed the vice president to the president's emergency operations center beneath the building. >> there were just a million things going on at once. it was literally like a beehive of activity. >> meanwhile, american flight 77 was headed in the direction of the white house. suddenly it made a 330 degree right turn and began a rapid descent toward the pentagon. at 9:37 a.m. american flight 77 crashed into the pentagon. >> we're looking at live pictures of the pentagon where there is billowing smoke. we are hearing again unconfirmed reports that this was the result of a plane crashing. >> i was 15, 20 yards from the point of

war on syria from the united states. it was discussed overwhelmingly in the halls that the reason that side but would have these chemical weapons was a deterrent to israel's over two hundred atomic weapons and these weapons are pointed at syria and it's. if he does have and apparently does have these chemical weapons it's because israel is such a dominant power in the middle east without stating the fact that they do have nuclear weapons you go on any of these talk shows and no one will ask the direct question what about israel's nuclear power and it's only right that iran should have nuclear power so it can sell its oil overseas iran does not process refine oil if they were if they were able to sell their oil and use nuclear power for their energy consumption at home this would make iran a very powerful very wealthy nation and it was last thing and angela's ok and then dependent right you said i'm from los angeles and los angeles is what they call it toronto is and a lot of san julian those who are. run descent persians

and i think projecting a united front by the united states is tremendously important.rtainly quibble with and criticize the sequencing of the week's events, having kerry go out so vociferously both monday and friday. but i think in the end the president believes the strength is in a broad coalition. >> katty, what do you say about all this? >> i think rob setter being diplomatic at best. the sequencing of the week's events looks indecisive at best and perhaps weak and muddled at worst. i mean, it was an extraordinary week in which you had kerry come out effectively and say this terrible thing has happened, we have to respond, and then at the end of the week the president changes course. you can make the counter argument that people in israel and people in iran are watching the deliberations this week and thinking america is going to vacillate and is not going to act until it goes to congress. that causes delays, and it's causing quite a lot of uncertainty around the world. in that region in europe as well. what is the american strategy here? it looks confused. it looks

that is why the united states refused to provide arms. they said, yes, they would give arms, but in reality, they have not given them because they do not know where the weapons will land. after the fall of the regime in syria. >> that is a writer from the huffington post. well, for decades, the united states has been an important financial backer of egypt. the u.s. sent billions of dollars in aid to ruler hosni mubarek and continues to support the country through the interim government headed by mohamed morsi. it looks like despite continued change in leadership and the instability in the country, the u.s. will honor its commitment to send 500 million more dollars in aid to egypt. $1.5 billion in aid, over one billion spent on military assistance. the rest is considered economic assistance, but because such a large amount is spent on the military, which acts the overthrow of morsi, american lawmakers have been concerned about the money. even the obama top security aides have recommended suspending the money. however, with the end of the f

i'm all for the united nations. i've always been for the united nations. here. but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try. >> good discussion. good debate, guys. thanks very much. underscoring the complexity of this issue. you have two former advisers to president obama strongly disagreeing on where to go next. a little bit of support from the current president of the united states. >>> when our special report continues, the united states making a strong case for military action against syria. but what about the united nations? we'll check in with u.n. officials. stand by. >>> but first, stephanie cutter has a closer look at another vintage "crossfire" moment. >> one of the most intense episodes of "crossfire" was in november of 1985. six months earlier, the philadelphia police department's attempt to evict members of a group called move from their homes started a fire. they killed 11 people and destroyed 61 homes. watch what happened when two members of move joined tom braden. >> you said, and i quote, "there is no doubt that move threw garbage in the streets

attack i wonder why is that if you are indeed an international organization why not wait for the united nations which is the main international body to conclude in its investigation and then decide and what the course of action should be well i should say that you know human rights watch does not represent any government we represent the truth i would love it if the u.n. inspectors were going to tell us who they think was the author of this horrible chemical weapon attack but unfortunately that's not their mandate they're going to come back and tell us the obvious which was that chemical weapon was used we all know that we've seen the videos we've seen the pictures their mandate is not to tell us who initiated it now human rights watch has done our own investigation looking at the facts looking at the delivery mechanisms looking at who had those delivery mechanisms we've also reviewed the evidence put forth by a number of governments we've looked at you know the summary denials put out by russia or syria which you know frankly are fairly unconvincing i have to say that. everybody has lo

there is samantha power, the united states ambassador to the united nations.as we await the president and a formal introduction, i think it's about to happen, the stakes are enormous throughout the region. >> no question. one big question is iran has reached its hand out pretty far. the question is if even a handshake too far. president rouhani getting his own criticism as home as president obama. does president rouhani stay in the hall for president obama's speech. that will be meaningful. >> when -- >> mr. president, fellow delegat delegates, ladies and gentlemen, each year we come together to reaffirm the founding vision of this institution. for most of recorded history, individual aspirations were subject to the whims of tyrants and empires and divisions of race and religion and tribe were settled through the sword and the clash of armies. the idea that nations could come together in peace and a common prosperity seemed unimaginable. it took the awful carnage of two world wars to shift our thinking. the leaders who built the united nations were not naive,

states because unlike the united states syria is not threatening the united states it would be the victim and so the assumption of the attack by the obama administration is that syria is too weak or small or vulnerable to actually use its legal right to carry out an attack against u.s. targets and he's telling the american people they won't strike there won't be representations but in fact obama or hegel or john kerry or mccain they don't know what the rep recover sions are going to be this is dangerous games when you carry out another war of aggression with the latest most developed high tech weapons against a country that's at peace with the united states so they don't really know where it ends they know how to start a war they don't know as we learn from iraq how to end a war michael they know how to start it but they don't know how to end it but you know there. well that's true because i think and that's what we have here what what they're operating under as as far as i can see is in force meant for once of the of the chemical weapons convention there is no there is a compliance provi

states and united the united states government is coming from this building and the blue dog district of shanghai. this is a problem. my estimate was that this is costing america 400 billion dollars a year. this is costing america 1 million lost jobs per year at a time where we cannot afford that at all. john huntsman the former ambassador to china and obama administration employee did a report recently and they came up with $300 million and 1.2 million jobs. the point of this is that's a lot of money. it's hundreds of billions of dollars in its more than 1 million jobs. this is greater than the impact of 9/11 indirect economic terms on the united states. it happens every year and it's done on purpose by a foreign military. i personally believe that this building here on the display was the iranian republican guard unit in tehran that building would be a smoldering pile of rubble before it had a chance to testify to congress or speak to to you about this problem but it's not. that begs the question why. that brings it up, why are we best frenemies with these folks? we have this thing
