and with regard to the united nations,on was not that it was a bad institution, but that it was one that had lots of bad people, that it was a place where countries would vent against the united states, and he was not enamored with some of the leadership of the united nations in the secretariat. it's a point be, actually, i have a certain sympathy for even as i continue to believe in the united nations as an institution. brought out and its captured wonderfully in this memo x what i think is one of of the things that we totally miss in foreign policy is the importance of ethnicity. i see it today, we went to war in iraq describing a country inhabited by iraqis, and today we discuss afghanistan in terms of afghans. and, of course, one of the reasons we are not succeeding is because that is our -- [inaudible] when, in fact, iraq is a country of kurds, shiites and sunnis, the kurds who don't want to be iraqi at all, want to be independent, the shiites and sunnis at each other's throats. afghanistan, the problem of afghanistan is confined to the pashtun part of the country, something that pa

terrorists i'm certain that given the pouring of support i've been talking about here in the united nations we'll see the same in the context of the latest attack of the idea the way international airport i don't know whether you've had a chance to talk to security aspects experts about the aspect of this particular bombing suspect a suicide bomber in this case it doesn't have airport was male compared to the metro bombings last year where female bombers were actually used i mean you say any significance in the change in tactic from from what you hear from security experts . not really. i have not had a chance to talk to security experts about the some of the people some of the colleagues have talked to have paid attention to the reports that it is possible that that car was actually out of origin so. it of course has some additional significance because europe. is concerned about the possibility of a new wave of. terrorist attacks or so the whole problem is seen in the broader international international context of the challenge which is posing international terrorism which affects russia

we have this report from the united nations in new york. ? the 19 nations has become a target of the political crisis -- the united nations has become a target of the political crisis. they accuse him. in new york, they bolted to go through the force, adding 2000 more troops. they invited his convoy. there were earlier warnings not to attack it. >> they are clearly attacking the city and the principals. these are crimes on international law. ñhe is able realist. eventually, the crimes will be held accountable. >> the un along with the rest of the committee recognizes him as the winter of the presidential election. he is keeping his rival under siege. the new u.n. troops are supposed to keep the supply route open and continue to protecting him. there also supposed to strengthen to protect the videos. it is not clear how much more they can do. patrols have been forced to retreat, this time by security forces. >> african mediators are trying to break the deadlock. >> there are still discussions of money. there is a breakthrough. >> the crisis con

the civic center is a scene of events of great importance, including the founding of the united nations and the peace treaties with world war ii. this shows as a poll reform moving to the united states. the architecture and plans are regarded as some of the finest and most complete manifestations of the beautiful movement. there is a scholar of classical architecture that says that this is the greatest ensembles of architecture in america. in 1899, the mayor was considering concepts the proposed establishing the grand civic center for san francisco. and leon know what had happened. after the earthquake and devastating fire, there could be a new city hall to replace the one that was destroyed. over the next 17 years, there were new parts added to the civic center. promises of the federal building began in 1933, completing in 1936. this brought the civic center to completion. and of course, the history of this building is both interesting and witty. like the office of nimitz, who will be next to my office. [applause] how cool is that? that is the reason this is a beacon of sustained desig

i think that the united nations, for instance, has done some great work through the u.n. evelopment program in defining human security and the new basis so that national security is no longer defined as what does the pentagon want, and what do your corporations want? unfortunately, in the u.s. that tends to be how we define national security. is the dow jones the highest-ranking stocks in the world, and is the pentagon the biggest and strongest military by such a huge margin that no other government, no other group of governments could ever imagine even matching our military capacity? i've got to say that doesn't make me feel safe, you know? i think that we need to start by recognizing that we live in an interconnected world. globalization on every level whether it's information technology, whether it's trade and all the inequalities that that has led to, the reality is that our world is far more integrated than ever before, and one of the consequences of that that i think we miss at our peril is understanding that we need to recognize that we cannot be secure and safe in

what were felt and seen here in the united nations is an overwhelming expression of condolences sympathy and support to russia after this terrorist attack at the airport the secretary general of the united nations made a statement condemning this attack a statement was made by the president of the security council on behalf of all members of the security council and today before the official meeting of the security council there was a minute of silence to commemorate the victims of the terrorist attack in the idea that were reported in general twenty four and some colleagues point out that this time the target of the terrorists was an international airport and that there are foreign foreigners among the victims so in their mind even firmer establishes the context it. clearly shows that the terrorist manifestations in russia are report of the general challenge of international terrorism in the security council we have a special mechanism the terrorist committee of the security council to ensure that it is also able to look in the context of this particular terrorist attacks and see what i

creation of israel you have to accept the risk of the united nations to say we don't there are terrorism legally i don't know if it is the country that gives arabs the most freedoms i wish that egypt and syria would give a little bit of freedom to arabs like you're telling me you know these young people you know what i really. do not do rail this program we're talking about the palestinian papers that have been leaked we've been talking about the behavior of the israeli government and the palestinian authority so can we stay on that topic. no mike and you going to have to pay actually wanted to say no more you pay and then we go to the rake cantelli i don't know i am very angry every human rights situation every human rights organization in the world documents very thoroughly the flagrant abuse of the palestinian rights under israeli occupation the idea that palestinians living under occupation have more rights than are arabs living in other arab countries that's completely laughable i mean look at the situation in gaza where you have one point five million people they don't want to pris

senate had written a book on international law, was the strongest defender of the united nations and the advocate of the preeminent cold war institution, the cia, because it had been so incompetent on the issues of the cold war, because it failed to predict the dissolution of the soviet union and 1987, per-capita, gdp in east germany exceeded that of west germany. two years before the fall of a wall failing to notice there were not a great number of people crossing the wall west to east. i could go further. this was a man who started with elliott abrams as one of its administrative assistants. i suppose later i became a close associate. but there isn't actually a paradox. it is a superficial one. the fact is that pat was never any a conservative because the new conservatives, his objection to the soviet union was to its wallace behavior. it's a lawless behavior internationally and internally. where he differed with the knee of conservatives is they believed the soviet union was strong. jeanne kirkpatrick famously wrote -- reagan's first ambassador to the u. n wrote an article in 79 t

in new york at the foot of the united nations and also in san francisco there were millions of people. the guinness book of world records said that it was the largest protest ever held in the history of humanity on one day, and it was somewhere between 12 and 14 million people. and it was one of the most extraordinary things. i think by that time, peter, i think most of us who had been involved in organizing -- and it had been over just a six week period, it's been a very rapid decision at a global movement, a global meeting of the world social forum had decided we should all do a protest on february 15th. and lo and behold, it actually happened that way just six weeks later. i think most of us knew the war was going to happen anyway, but there was this scrap of hope somewhere that if there was a massive enough mobilization and, indeed, what we saw that day -- i was in new york. the day before was the day the security council had met, february 14th. and that day amazing things had happened. in the council for the fist time when the french foreign minister -- this is after the two u.n.

involvement of united nations security council. and i expect that they have come to conclusion that they have miscalculated that they have to reconsider whatever they have done so on and they have to cope themselves with their reality again reality is iran is master of enrichment technology and also the reality is that iran will not suspend its cooperation be die a and everything is under the full control of i.a.e.a. an international organization which is related to that therefore harvey said so knowing that everything is hundred twenty percent transparent and exclusive of peaceful purposes therefore they cannot through either dissolution or any way to us iran to suspend this is absolutely impossible and not logical therefore let's hope that all change the gear from confrontation to cooperation will i once again getting back to the to the east to rule the gender in may two thousand and ten the last year the western countries rejected. agreements with turkey and brazil on low enrich uranium fuel can this particular agreement be rene

when you see the most important international body of destruction if you get information the united nations. wealthy british. margetts. find out what's really happening to the global economy is a report. this is. good to have you with us your headlines now more than four hundred people remain. far east coast after a fleet of ships was imprisoned almost a week ago a rescue mission is underway in the. struggle to find employment. as the economy fails to pick up despite israel's easing its blockade many women forced. to provide for their. daily battle against. islamophobia still going strong in the u.s. . authorities of. the u.s. says washington will pull all of its troops out of afghanistan by two thousand and fourteen quote come hell come hell or highwater well as he sat down with the foreign minister to find out if the country will be ready to stand on its own two feet by then that interview is coming up next. afghan foreign minister song let us all thank you very much for being with us today our pleasure mr foreign minister when soviet forces withdrew from afghanistan you have been publish

against nuclear installations during an operation or a kind of construction is a violation of united nationsharter statute and international law and united is going to classes should act immediately therefore this is a pity united nations security council is keeping silent as they this is and for this is very disappointing for tony you have been more than once criticizing the confrontation policy of your negotiation partners but recently hillary clinton admitted that i quote iran can enrich uranium for civilian purposes at some future date once it has demonstrated it can do so in a reasonable manner and in accordance with its international obligations and quote iran can enrich uranium do you see these words of the state secretary as a breakthrough in the u.s. position well i have to say that after eight years and also after years of. involvement of united nations security council. and i expect that they have come to conclusion that they have miscalculated that they have to reconsider whatever they have done so on and they have to cope themselves with their reality again reality is iran is ma

so the united nations, of course, doesn't help the situation. they came out with the declaration that zionism is racism. and then, of course, is anti-semitisim any different from anti-zionism. people tend to try to separate those two. we already heard one of the speakers talk about anti-semitis anti-semitisim. there's a brilliant harvard academic, ruth weiss who has recently written in commentary magazine about zionism of determination, national self-determination and the belief was that the reason the people hated the jews were they were always strangers in somebody else's land. they were never the owners. so if israel had its own countries its own land people would stop hating it. well, that wasn't the case, not at all. what happened was that the hatred became even stronger. and on top of that, we had the jews who began to suffer the psyche of the abused. you know, you've all, of course, heard psychologists speak about abused children, abused adults who are so attacked and so wounded by their abusers that they start to believe the lives that t

at the united nations, we have more on this story.this has to be a reflection of how concerned u.s. officials are about the situation in ivory coast. >> they're very concerned, specifically about the un mission there. there have been attacks against u.n. vehicles and a number of peacekeepers have been injured. that's one of the things that has prompted the council to act. one of the reasons is to protect un personnel and installations. they are guarding the hotel where the president-elect is being held under siege by the incumbent. they need extra troops to keep going. supplies have been squeezed by forces, so a crucial task they will have to keep supply routes open. in this respect, they will be supported by armed helicopters. un troops are supposed to be protecting civilians, which they have had great difficulty doing. they have been forced to retreat from areas of unrest because of the strength and size of the loyalists. it is unclear what extra troops will do, but the un beal's the situation is a ball tile and gramm. >> -- the un

i was there for a united nations conference on palestine. it happened just at the moment that the flotilla attack occurred, the israeli commandos who assaulted a turkish humanitarian aid ship that was part of a flotilla an international ship flotilla that was trying to break the flow of gaza of course leading to the death of nine turkish citizens one was a dual turkish and american citizen. and being in turkey at the moment that that occurred was an extraordinary experience just in terms of seeing how turks were responding to this. the let me of support of the new turkish government in the last few years is really quite extraordinary. democracy in turkey despite continuing contradictions that exist is flourishing in a whole new way. and one of the things that i've realized in recent years when i've been writing a lot about u.s. wars in the area looking at iraq and iran, for years i could only say there were two countries in the middle east that had the indigenous capacity to become regional powers. meaning they had money from oil. they had s
