there's two units at the back and one units at the front. they look at the units on the entire lot, not just the number of units in the entire structure. we would say rent-controlled would apply here. rent-controlled is not expired by the fact of units not being rented out and it was through the diligent research of the appellant that it was found that there was residential use in the front building and that is where we are today. they have responded to those issues and they have obtained the proper authorizations from the planning commission and the board of supervisors to demolish that rent-controlled building. spee. >> vice-president swig: again we don't know and we don't have facts because they weren't presented to us, but if the retail store, let's say, again that the retail store owner and their family lived upstairs in the residential units, how do we separates the residential units from the retail store? why wasn't it considered one higher as an extensible units? as it occurs now, it is one entire rental units and doesn't include a reside

now they are placed under the protections of the united states, but in fact they cannot sue the united states because they are not members of the people. this creates a conundrum in which there is little way out legally. lands are g separated from them legally, yet they cannot access the law that is doing this. jason can go out and settle lands, and he gets legal claim to them, but native americans are classified as other nations. and as members of other nations, they cannot sue, because they are not the people. domestic dependent nations. think about that in relation to the mission of jefferson. everyone is about independent farmers. as independents, they don't have direct access to the government. native americans are classified as domestic dependent nations, analogousf dependency to that of wives, of enslaved people to their household's heads. we have this legal creation of inferior nations without land, but subordinated to the federal government, which is not the relationship of nations to each other. this is not how france or britain relates to the united states. imagine the frenc

they handed them over to the night date, they -- united states. they did not tell native americans. so now the united states has a whole different approach to the land, one that does not allow for the layered claims. and indians cannot, under the territory ordinance, disclose of their lands. they have to go through the federal government. so, the federal government is not going to be the arbiter of the big entity that you have to go through to deal with native americans, but increasingly the entity that will be supervising native americans. so now we get into the power of law to frame these issues and you get a lot of text here. johnson macintosh is one of the key decisions, it is in 1823. it affirms the principle of indian nationhood. so negotiations with indians are within the domain of federal policy, they have established that in the constitution. following through to the northwest territory ordinance. so the principle of nationhood and negotiations with the federal government, that is key, because basically constitution -- johnson v. macintosh, northwest territorial ordinance is

units to each of the individuals. >> director samaha: would we have enough of the affordable units, if they were to split up? i don't think we would have enough units to accommodate? >> well, we'll be working with tida and the other affordable future affordable housing develop understand. we'll be constructioning 1866 units. with those unit, we want to transition the existing 250 treasure island households, but our universe here with the village is 203 units. 203 households. so if all of those people wanted market rate units, a portion of thos 1866, we would construct as market rate units and transition those into, but we would still have another 1400 units we'll be constructing over time. so if an existing village unit were able to split to form multiple affordable households, we would have the ability to accommodate that within the total universe of units we're constructing. >> director samaha: ok, thank you. >> director richardson: thank you. and know this process is moving forward, so that's very encouraging. earlier, i had to ask for a graph. i seldom go anywhere in san francisco with

because the remaining superpower they look to places like china and indi,india and the united sd europe and again this is an idealized strategy where there are regional powers and everybody cooperated and gets along, nobody dominates one another. they are less descriptive about using the word analyze in their strategy documents. they want to have a strategic cooperation that is how they worded it pretty much comprehensively but i don't know that it is extending towards the military alliance this point. >> i wonder if the social issues, ho how how is that affeg the current force and also the recruitment in the future. th've done pretty well hitting their numbers for contract soldiers comes with a professional volunteer soldiers but they've struggled in the past years finding sufficient to number to include health fitness and those things. the demographics have leveled off for the time being. we know roughly how many russians will turn etd cheer and so that's at least. i don't do if you hav care if ye anything els add to that. >> so they are not as bad as they were maybe 15 year

i do not see united they -- united states spending a lot of money. we had three hostages. how much money did we spend for the three hostages? we are very far away. we are very far away. those places are very close, in the neighborhood, within a -- we are 6000 miles away. so i already told south korea, you are going to have to get ready, and japan, also. and i think they really want to see something great happen. japan does, south korea does, and i think china does, that is their neighborhood. >> yesterday you were concerned about the meeting with lavrov with kim jong-un. president trump: i did not like it, but it could be positive. i did not like the russian meeting yesterday. i said what is the purpose of that? but it could be a positive meeting. if it is positive, i love it. it is a negative meeting, i am not happy, and it could well be a positive meeting. >> [indiscernible] president trump: that could happen. that could happen. we talked about it. we talked about ending the war. this war has been going on -- it has got to be the longest war, almost 70 years, and there's

fear being punished by the united states they fear losing access to the u.s. market they fear being punished by u.s. allies particularly in the middle east some of our arab our arab friends may similarly want to go along with the troubling ministration and therefore not look kindly on european countries for example that could increase significantly their financial contribution so the u.s. withdrawal is really meant to not only pull out u.s. funding but to have a chilling effect on other countries funding the organization and directly it might be having a chilling effect because when funding to a rule was muted as being cut you'd have saudi arabia egypt the u.a.e. all up it all and saying no no no we called can't do this sort of a role the stony silence from these countries at the moment. yes they are and i think that is part of a deliberate and ordinated strategy from the white house as part of this deal of the century to work very closely with the governments of saudi arabia the united arab emirates egypt and jordan to really sq

they go to the united states because they have jobs that pay better, better living conditions. >> thankou, candidate. >> i think you are right. we are not going to have any moral authority if we ask the united states to treat our immigrants well, how can we do that if we are not treating the central americans coming to our country with dignity? we need to set an example. we need to cooperate with central american countries and show them that one peso invested in cooperation is worth more than a peso invested in a ridiculous wall such as the one donald trump wants to build. i think we have to do many things in order to confront the problem. thatrats -- immigrants come in include unaccompanied children, adolescents, that are facing the abuses that were mentioned. we need to invest in health first care, we need to address the needs of immigrants. inry time we see a child adolescence in the immigration process, they are also many times faced with severe health problems. we need to have immigration hand-in-hand with health care. let me just mention, the challenge is so great, the government

anyone and how they did actually to condemn that addictively they united out of him other than i think he cannot stay in power they can just replace him by any way with i mean they did with those ministers on the floor of the photo but i mean is that is that in the or in yemen not a question in toronto coming to you again there is this base the base apparently reportedly allegedly u.s. personnel were sent there part of the murkiness of this surely is that depending upon which website you look at depending upon which bits of social media you catch up with they are either there in a semi official role or they are mercenaries and nobody is telling anybody else whether they are or they're not. you're right we don't have the full picture here but i suspect the united states is deeply aware that torture is taking place at these prison sites and that you bomb and that the trumpet ministration is actually you know looking the other way in other words indorsing these types of practices because it effectively has the truck administration that is has the exact same regional view and the exact sam

they encourage people to walk through mexico and go into the united states. they are drug traffickers. human traffickers. they are coyotes. we are getting some real beauties. mexico is doing nothing for us except taking our money and sending us drugs. are doing nothing. they can solve this problem in two minutes. you wouldn't even have to do anything. they don't do it. they talk a good game but they don't do it. we will see how that all comes down. it will be interesting to see. with that, i will end by saying we had a tremendous success with north korea. we continue to work on that. mike pompeo has been fantastic. john bolton, working together with mike has been fantastic. i don't even know where -- there he is. he spent so much time in north korea. surprised to see you here. i think i can speak for both of us it has been an incredible experience. the relationship is very good. they have stopped the sending of missiles, including ballistic missiles. they are destroying their engine sites. they are blowing it up. they have already blown up one of their big tes

united states for support in this operation i think this just lies because they do it in the media to cover up the real involved involvement of the united states and its like to say that the united states is not involved the war was declared on twenty six of march two thousand and fifty from the united states by the saudi ambassador and this is the first what i think that has been declared from another another country and i believe that. many yemeni don't trust the united nation to give up what they'd up or to be under the control of the united nation just for i would give just some of the example i mean we see that the united nation. what they have done they have taken the obvious from the people there who were fighting against the occupation but at the end. the serbian has killed a thousand surprised at the united nations right so i understand there's a very hostile six that i started to who did not know it was not the united nations i understand but what about iran and its role is it doing everything it can to encourage a political solution to this conflict i don't know why they al

will just do united states to the extent that they willjust do what united states tore told to do, so this behaviour, which is akin to bullying, is not going to work to change practices in china that need to be changed so that intellectual property is respected and we and other countries have access to the chinese market. there is not usually consensus among economists but i think by and large, most economists i have read and i have come across, seem to think that ta riffs have come across, seem to think that tariffs and trade wars are a bad thing. so why is president trump and his administration, why are they not listening to you guys? honestly, i think that is the $50,000 question. i think their consensus that this is not productive for the united states is growing beyond just academic economist or people who make their life doing this. we are seeing growing concerns in congress. i think many people, particularly in the republican party, thought that the republican party, thought that the tariffs were just threats and now that they are being levied and we are faced

anyone and if had they did actually to condemn that equally they united out of him out of then i think he cannot stay in power they can just replace him by any way. they did with those ministers on the floor of the photo but i mean is that is there in the or in yemen not a hashimi in toronto coming to you again there is this base the base apparently reportedly allegedly u.s. personnel were sent there part of the murkiness of the surely is that depending upon which website you look at depending upon which bits of social media you catch up with they are either there in a semi official role or they are mercenaries and nobody is telling anybody else whether they are or they're not. you're right we don't have the full picture here but i suspect the united states is deeply aware that torture is taking place at these prison sites and that you bomb and that the trumpet ministration is actually you know looking the other way in other words indorsing these types of practices because it effectively has the truck administration that is has the exact same regional view and the exact same interpreta

is the united states to determine that they are citizens? a republican of california argued that the language of the amendment was too broad because it made citizens of chinese born in the united states. the chinese are nothing but a pagan race. and in a pot to me. i have lived among them for 15 years. you cannot make good citizens of them. he was asked what's the difference between chinese immigrants and african-americans. he explained the chinese are foreigners and the new growth is a native. african-americans are here, they have to be done with. chinese are in a different situation. pass todes after the the 14th amendment, the department of justice to the position that chinese born in the united states were not u.s. citizens. the lower courts were unanimous in holding the opposite view. finally, the department of justice got the issue to the supreme court. the brief for the united states argued for the most persuasive reasons we have refused citizenship to chinese subjects, their offspring who are just as obnoxious, and to whom the same re

a once a chance of the chance because that would be an exaggeration but there was a little bit units they they they had. opportunities with process after the next and the right right to the very very end they had to throw in which was supposed to be long and he was doing the acrobatic one way made a somersault and the referee stopped him from doing it and he looked at him so ok i'll just put it there he put it to a cross today and even then they had an opportunity and i'm still feeling like it's just. like it's going to be part of what i like. on it may just be like our support. with great people like me it's. people like it's it's unbelievable it's the best. the numbers something we love how we're amazed by. the playing sports people it's not something i mean people having this opportunity to come and cheer for our team . after the money. because you know. i they play portugal in the last game well that's my question do you think that they will go with a more attacking approach because they've shown they can do it i think i think what they'll do is. they will try and keep the good all th

they are trying to come into the united states. there were a handful of mexican them, andabout 12 of they were being put into criminal prosecution which is something that did not happen for first-time crushers. their children -- crossers. their children were taken away and said to foster families. >> is this picture representative of what is happening along the border? >> we're seeing a lot of that going on. we're now seen the administration is pulling back from family separation. signed in order to stop doing that and they are looking for alternatives. it depends on what the alternatives are. credit, theyheir listen to the american people that were concerned about the idea of separating children from their parents. >> let's go to mark joining us from massachusetts. it morning. -- good morning. >> good morning. i will definitely check out your book, it was interesting. with respect to nafta, and in there are aeral, lot of americans that note canada is the number one trade partner and i think mexico is number three, number two being

the question is, the united states is still the united states. theye to figure out how to deal constructively with the united states. they don't want to completely rupture the alliance. that's the difficult balancing act they have right now with him. >> very interesting. the president is fighting justin trudeau, he's waiting for a trade agreement with the eu. at the same time he's inviting russia back into the g-7 without punishment for its annexation of crimea. he's eased up with china over gte. he called trudeau a funny guy, great negotiator, loves his people, unquote. we talked about the double standard here. it's very easy to imagine the democratics up in arms and not going there with trump. >> justin trudeau has a great peace in the atlantic about the trump doctrine. he asked people, what is the trump doctrine on the world stage? no friends, no enemies, is what one senior administration official said. permanent destabilization creates american advantage, said another one. the trump doctrine is we're america -- and you see the rest. really? >> i w

anyone and how they did actually to condemn that addictively they united out of him other than i think he can stay in power they can just replace him by any way with my mean they did with those ministers on the floor of the forum out of but i mean is that is that in the or in yemen not a hashim in toronto coming to you again there is this base the base apparently reportedly allegedly u.s. personnel were sent there part of the murkiness of this surely is that depending upon which website you look at depending upon which bits of social media you catch up with they are either there in a semi official role or they are mercenaries and nobody is telling anybody else whether they are or they're not. you're right we don't have the full picture here but i suspect the united states is deeply aware that torture is taking place at these prison sites and that you bomb and that the trumpet ministration is actually you know looking the other way in other words indorsing these types of practices because it effectively has the trunk administration that is has the exact same regional view and the exact

united. they notoriously fractured, and yet in the run-up to the elections, they were united in an effort to deny the ruling party a majority. i think they have done well, especially the main opposition party's presidential candidate. the ruling party, erdogan's party, does not have a parliamentary majority. it relies on the support of its main ally, the nationalist mhp. moving forward, the opposition can still play an important role , especially the nationalist mhp will be the kingmaker. they captured 11% of the vote, but will have significant clout over the ruling party. from now on, i think it is critical for the opposition to remain united. david: professor, an important role you say they can play, but will it change the course of the president? he's been there now for 15 years. he has more power than he's ever had before. yet the economy has deteriorated pretty consistently. guest: that is right, and the economy will play a key role moving forward. again, the ruling party and its been on the

the europeans are really trying very hard and are being very determined to show that they are we united they had a meeting here on the sidelines of the g seven summits to agree on the joint strategy in dealing with mr trump and he's very aggressive trade agenda. alexander phenomena but the latest from quebec city where the g seven meeting currently under way thank you so much. in other news the united nations general assembly has voted for germany and for other nations to become nonpermanent members of the security council the new members take up their seats in twenty nineteen and will spend two years at diplomacy is top table germany has held its election as a vote of confidence in its global role. germany one hundred eighty four. while the news did not come as a great surprise the german foreign minister said he wasn't expecting such an overwhelming majority one hundred eighty four votes in favor out of a total of one hundred ninety. eight i know that's yet to be confirmed with one hundred eighty four votes is a terrific result for those that oppose it shows that the international communit

they concluded that the united states was doing 90% of the work, 90% of the investment and they treated what britain saw according to that. they believed that their position what was fdr wanted. now, churchill who opposed the u.s. strategy to come across the channel also intensely wanted a british atomic bomb. he saw post world war dominated by the united states and soviet union and in that world britain needed a bomb of its own for independence, were his words. so -- so he had this and you could see how this could start moving together and it did. apparently for own national reasons, both sides were encouraging the issues to come together particularly among fdr and churchill. notably a lot of generals didn't know about both strategy negotiations and the bomb, where they did have the convergence of knowledge and how they talked about it. now the evidence for the convergence is circumstantial but quite extensive and personally i found it persuasive that they did come to a conjunction in august of 1942 that led to quid pro quo, while all of this was happening, the plan for operation overl

unit? asset management is the thing that swiss banks historically do. how do theyit, control margins, boost revenues? wealth management and asset isagement, the model of ubs centered around asset gathering. there are a lot of outflows. that was made because of the restructuring. it was pursued over the last year. flown into passive investing strategies. they were very compelling to this is a move to keep the costs in check. that is the only thing they can do. they don't know when the cycle is turning into more money is flowing into more expensive strategies. they want to control costs and i don't think these strategies should happen in recent years. they seem to be committed. this is not a strategy shift. it is taking costs out of the business. there are a lot of synergies from this asset management unit. they are investing into platforms. they are offering those as asset managers for banks. guy: thank you, indeed. quickly updating you in the financial space. we will get full pricing for london assets on the london stock exchange in 3.5 minutes. we will be watching

what chaos i hope they really are united. we begin the day with the united states playing a dangerous game that is how the european union today described u.s. president donald trump's decision to slap trade tariffs on european steel and aluminum europe warned that a tit for tat tariff attack could come later this month today the european union asked the world trade organization to get involved this is the closest thing that global trade has to a court of justice but it's wheels they turn slowly and there is no one force in it the european union's trade commissioner today refused to call this an all out trade war saying psychology and words matter a lot and she made her point by applying trump's winning campaign strategy to his tariff policy she said when they say america first we say europe united. they began this morning at six am central european time twenty five percent import tariffs on steel ten percent on aluminum the european reaction is clear. that it is unfortunate because this is further weakening the transatlantic

the countermeasures will only apply to the originating from the united states. they will take effect july 1 and will remain in place until the united states eliminates its trade restrictive measures against canada. where possible we have thought the products on the list that can be easily sourced from either canadian or non-us suppliers. i like to take the opportunity to thank the canadians who have been actively engaged in the consultations. i'm grateful for your input that have helped us build the best possible retaliatory lists. as we take these steps we are asking and acting in close collaboration with our like-minded partners. i was in fact in brussels on tuesday to discuss this issue. it's important to point out that there are also subject to the 232 terra from post on june 1. their allies and neighbors of the united states. canada's approach is and will be this. we will not escalate and not act on. judging by the feedback, countless canadians in many diverse political points of view agree with this approach. i can't emphasize enough the regret with which we ta

they could respond positively to. the question now really is whether the batting unit can do the same.mpared to what they've had recently as a test unit, they couldn't have asked for much more and certainly stuart broad was leading things. thank you. let's hope the batsman can keep their end up. england manager gareth southgate will no doubt relish the chance for football to become the focus rather than talking about tattoos when his team play the first of two friendlies later, before departing for the world cup. nigeria the opponents at wembley. david 0rnstein is with the team. england's path to the world cup has been smooth, but with the tournament now fast approaching, the scrutiny has intensified. this week, raheem sterling moved to defend himself after revealing a tattoo of an assault rifle on his right leg. amid criticism from anti—gun campaigners, sterling said the artwork had a deeper meaning, that his father was shot dead when the player was just two years old and he made a promise never to touch a gun in his life. he understands how some people have perceived the tattoo, but

course russians are interested in affects them is sanctions restrictions from europe from the united states and they are putin when that would then when the east and the west would finally make up and be friends partners again and the president said that that loony happens when everyone learns to treat each other with respect. becht to talk to each other equals and not to look down on other countries to you know take into account the interests of other nations and to compromise to learn to compromise he said with regards to europe that there is a greater and greater understanding that sanctions and restrictions aren't working and led me a prudent pointer to the current trade war between europe and the united states he said that the us tariffs on european goods aren't so much an economic measure as they are a political measure essentially sanctions regime as minister for one of the french government's ministers recently said that the us shouldn't be allowed to become the economic policeman of the world and he spoke about it publicly the former german minister of finance publicly said that germany has

tom: they are illegally in the united states. they don'tn't want to be held law. table by immigration can i say every alien is hiding? no. i am telling you based on my experience, what we have done the last several years, the majority are hiding. they don't want to be found. that's why a vast majority of these families don't show up in immigration comet they get order absentia. not only did they go in hiding won't appear won't appear in f an immigration judge. that's just fact. i'm sure tomorrow i'll read i'm wrong. wear my shoes for 34 years, do what i do, and look at the facts of what's going on. look at how many families do noge a final fear find interesting a judge because 80%. 80%. like a lot of fraud going on. they know it. they are certainly not going to show up to a judge and present a fraudulent case. 80% don't get -- appear, so my opinion, many of th -- let me be clear. do i think some of these people are escaping fear and persecution and they have a solid case, yeah? i think there is some. i would be a fool to say there is not. but i think a majority of

saudi back is though i mean that you have how can you handed that's what i'm saying they would do you not just the united and they are in the end the international community as a you know as a backer of this plan would guarantee it would prevent further saudi led coalition attacks if the who things were to give up their ballistic weapons ok is there no trust in the united nations or the international the real mr because i think what you know what to be honest with you me personally i think those are the we came to most yemeni we came to a conclusion that we don't trust all international community and this was really the on why i will explain to you before in muscat about two years ago there was a plan before the how they accepted the twenty to sixty in this illusion they were told that if you accept this we will guarantee that the world will stop and then we will go in how to implement the twenty two sixty what they have accepted and what happened the saudi continue its war that's why i say biased because this is what the united nations has been doing so mr look on her if you can you must the united nati

the 1 thing that i would point out here is that the upper force of this building have residential units. they have not only a fair amount of wall around the exterior of the building but they also have very extensive walls in the interior and bathrooms and bedrooms and corridors and everything that has a certificate amount of brazing yea it's significantly less country /srabl in those stories. now very often, we get even a garage or storage or sometimes commercial occupancy in this ground story. that very often not only has a whole lot less perimeter wall but it often has little or no wall on the interior. that wall is the earthquake bracing and so he see very significant bracing in the top floor and very little on the bottom. when the earthquake comes and hits, it tries to push that ground floor over and there's very little that keeps it from moving and degrading and eventually /paoerblly keeping it from a collapse occurring. so we know they're vulnerable because of this ground story collapsing >> is this only a problem we see in sentence france? san francisco? >> no, this is certainly a nati

my understanding is there may have tenancies before they owned the unit. to answer your question, they are apparently have been tenancies in the past but i'm not just aware of them at this time. but we worked with dbi originally when we were looking at this project and they told us to bring it up to code and we would completely demolish it. that was the only way to fix the deficiencies in order to make this a habitable unit for a future renter and i believe we detailed that in our prior application about all the things that would have to be replaced in order for that to work. essentially, we have one legal unit and one illegal unit and what we will do the project is created to watch what you legal units. >> so you had run with -- one request, if we had a successor project. what was it again and query you are the next-door neighbour? what was your request if we approved this project? >> that the rear roof would be lowered to a flat roof and allow more light into the back of the property, along my property line and secondly, that the walkway be extended to th

i think it isa it is a great appointment for manchester united. theyey want to do. there will be same any candidates who want to go for thatjob. i think the fact that any candidates who want to go for that job. i think the fact that she has got it shows that her interview was fantastic. and that is why she has got it. you're watching sportsday. still to come in the programme: a big name promising a big game, as tyson fury weighs in for his comeback fight. 11 semi finals. 11 wins. and one step closer to an 11th title at roland garros. rafael nadal never loses at this stage of the french open. and juan martin del potro was the latest to find that out. lizzie greenwood hughes reports. suchis such is the love for rafa nadal at paris. this court is practically his second home. but also looking to move in,juan martin second home. but also looking to move in, juan martin del potro. the argentine towers over most opponents and overpowers them as well. nadal has made a career of climbing mountains. his perseverance and defence unrivalled. and soon he produced a

states, was because they wanted the united states as an ally and an off-set to china now you see what the philippines has done, for example, where they have backed off on some of the pushback in china. you see that in other countries in the region because they can't be confident that the united states is going to be there for them they're, unfortunately, having to rebuild bonds that they're very uncomfortable with, with china. >> stay right there. i want to bring john harwood in, as well. john, we're watching the president just kind of arriving there in canada. what do you think can be accomplished today what is kind of the goal for this whole summit, do you think? >> well, i think the goal for our counter parties at the summit, the g-6, is to stand up against president trump. i have to say, guys, i understand you were being devil's advocate in discussing the issues surrounding the increasing isolation of the united states, but i don't think we should under play the danger both economically and as a security matter as our guest indic

they say they hate the united states. they want to see the united states burn. they want to -- all sorts of colorful ways to destroy america and its leadership. but they're echoing the messaging that is in their state propaganda. and when a north korean son camera, of course they're going to say what they're hearing from their government because if they were say anything else in a country where political dissent is not tolerated, the consequences for them would obviously not be good. and it's not to say that some of them don't believe those things. but nowhere is a noticeable change in north korean propaganda. the fact that you have their most famous news read attorney air telling north koreans about the summit before it has even happened, talking about opening a new chapter, talking about an era of peace. i suspect when we go back into north korea after this summit and we start talking to people, depending how things going here in singapore, we might hear a very different perspective from them about their feelings about e united states and their views, relations

these are the orientations of the enemy units. they were looking southwest, because they expected us to come there. why would we know that? everyone thought we had fo oled them, but the general of direct intelligence of the iraqi army knew where we were. and a new generally where we would come. they also try to tell saddam hussein. i got to read the iraqi documents because in 2003, we captured them. if the documents were not destroyed in the fighting, i had access to them. i had a penpal who was a iraqi major general and another who was a republican forces commander and israeli intelligence officer who wrote a book on the iraqi army. i don't think anyone is as interested in the iraqi army then he is except for me. it is an incredible look. he helped me translate. they knew how many tanks we had. they had really solid intelligence that we would attack as far back as august of 1990. the problem was saddam did not believe it was going to happen. saddam lived in his own magic world. people said he was irrational -- not true. i read his stu
