but when foreign courts are condemning americans to death for exercising their first amendment rights within the unitedstates, i think they should be some comment about that. >> microphone to the front row, possibly. here it comes. stack my name is fred weber. true or false -- [laughter] the dramatic rise in the persecution of christians worldwide but especially in the muslim countries is a direct result of the rise in opposition to our country, to the anti-american feeling that's been crescendoing, especially in this past decade. >> i'm not sure that's the case. within the muslim world i think so that is connected, with radical islam, if you go through al qaeda statements for things of this kind, then you will see america is hated because it's thought to be christian. christians are not hated because they're thought to be americans. they see the world in religious terms. bin laden says the buddhas have a seat on the u.n. security council, why can't we? what's he referring to? he's referring to china. so they put them, everything is put in religious categories. so christians would be seen as a problem

thesecond thing is that for first time obama was already in power and for the first time the united states allowed an american to be at the table. burns at first. we arranged to have bilateral talks in geneva. the climate was very good. we agreed on something very importanti veryran at that time fuel to put out of into the reactor that would create isotopes for medicine. argentina had been the country historically that was putting he enriched uranium into the reactor to produce isotopes. that was a difficult moment. to get out the same amount we put in. put theched and then other.

angry about many things first of all they see that the united states is totally biased to israel and it's not hiding it's even declaring it constantly second they see the americans are. using peace process leadership yet they are not being an honest broker in this process by monopolizing that they are not doing their job at the same time they're not allowing any other party to do that to do this job but third there were many negative gestures even during the visit of president obama one of just said was that he refused to meet a child who of one of the presidents and bill in israeli presence here refused to listen and to hear the palestinian grievances and pain another negative matter was that he visited an israeli music. which contained a stall in material from occupied territories this in our opinion should not be done by an american president because it would be you know we're legalizing an act of theft from palestinian side. the third thing he visited that i've been. grave which is good but he refused to visit mr arafat's tone you could agree or disagree with president arafat but he was a symbol for the palestinians and. and both of both of these people who

the first successful islamist attack in the united states, i think americans were expecting to here a more familiar name than chechnya. what does that imply to you? chechen terrorists previously attacked soft attacks in russia. 2004, the scene at the school where almost 400 people died. 2010, the attack on the metro in moscow. so this is the first time we've seen chechen link in the united states. this will be interesting to see how this develops. >> exactly. the real question seems to be, regardless of their influence or their inoperation, did these guys act alone or were they part of a broader network where this is part of a bigger plan? >> this is where tensions are going to focus on the fbi. in 2011, the russian government supposedly contacted the fbi and informed them that this was a person of interest. 2012, he traveled to pakistan for six months. so the tension is going to focus on the obama administration and following this. we saw during the presidential election campaign mitt romney continually criticized the president being soft on terrorism inspect.. >> and the benghazi in

american you're. ok in there is what's the relationship between private persons and our economy what what we're seeing and what first of all what we're seeing is that historically in the united states and other countries around the world kind of basic definition of a functional democracy in a functional economy is that you have two basic economies that operate parallel to each other you have what's called the public economy and what's called the private economy the public economy is all the stuff that we all do for each other because it's the stuff that we do you really require something as large as a government to do. you wouldn't want to you know go out rent an army and you wouldn't want to you know be a minister in a city with acme with your company's senior vice president of city administration you you know you there's reasons why we do these things and there are also natural monopolies there are there are things that it's hard to to great you know who owns the air. who owns the water how many water pipes can you have run into your house how many electric lines can you have a new run in your house one these are natural monopolies. so in those areas where you have natural

the second thing is for the first time obama was already in power for the first time the united states allowed the american to be detained and we had arranged to have been a bilateral talks in the meeting in geneva and it was a very good and we agreed on something very important. at that time they were running at 20% to put it into the reactor which is to create. they had in the country that was put in the uranium to the reactor to produce isotopes. that was a difficult moment for them and we accepted to get out the country. there were two elements that were leading to the facilitation and the relationship. within an agreement that wasn't going to contradict each other. it happened two days after the big battle inside tehran and the supreme leader. with that i can maintain some talks and it's not the best friend as you can imagine. he is now running for president as an portent figure. let's see how he behaved if he was elected president but at the end of the day the supreme leader is the one coming and one of the big problems negotiating in the structure of power for civilian, etc., is the and director we
