[laughter] a lot of them do not. he does take into consideration tourgee's argument about the right of property and coloreds' property. but he says this would only be the case if plessy had been right -- white. he says states decide what constitutes race, not the federal government, and that and some of the other cases these decided differences between what is national citizenship and what is state citizenship. harm to ahere is the particular race if you have this separation? the other races like asians, native americans, and other ones got to use the white facilities? >> it depended>>. it depended on where you we

wei said earlier, certainly were -- i'll just say, we were surprised and disappointed by poor performance of some iraqi security force units there up in the north. than honestbe less if i said that that performance instilled a lot of confidence. it didn't. >> sectarian divide in those areas has led to their poor performance and on baghdad, specifically, there are wericans there, so what are doing, what are you doing to protect the americans specifically at the embassy? this isn't about blaming anybody, justin. clear thate made it there's a lot of factors, i played into where the iraqi security forces are departure. after our that's interesting history but to focus on what we can do in the near term to help the this security forces meet threat. on your second question, we know many americans in have an certainly we operational embassy there in baghdad. that embassy is still operational. there's been no request by the state department for -- to move thee americans out of country and that's obviously for state to speakat to. luis? questions.wo one on this topic and another one. video thatthe

could do that wey were going to ignore did. >> how did the massacre change u.s. policy towards china overall in the long term, if at all? we are showing viewers video that we shot back in 1998. a permanent shadow, more than an asterisk and how they view the chinese government. since the time of china ask going to develop and it's better if the united states is part of that than not. on the other hand, the united states recognizes that as a democracy movement seemed to be gathering force in china 25 years ago, the government very brute averlly squashed it. so i think the knowledge of that and where the government's priorities lay then and now has been a permanent complicating factor in how the rest of the world views china. >> just as a point of reference, the number killed in tiananmen square, a report this week said it's sail inookted for. what's your best guess? >> i've been cautious to -- in saying. there have been plausible estimates that range from a couple hundreds to a couple thousand. i think the truth is we will probably never know for sure, but it was a

>> so i think the only thing wei would want to add to the conversation is a fourth and aoh fifth example.fth ex it's the instructor at the training facility and the paralegal in san diego. and i think mr. judd makes really good arguments that fromt a recruitment and retention ro standpoint, maybe you can't getr a border patrol agent to go to georgia if he's not going to get a promised ninth and tenth hour, but that's really a cost benefit analysis that we don't feel alys comfortable making but just wanted to flag that issue and ai put it out there. as far as whether in all three of our examples plus the additional two administrative oo office settings or training f settings, whether that's trai something that should be methin institutionalized. >> couldn't we just say if someone -- you want to have hamebody who is really experienced out of the field, make a good instructor in order to induce him or her to come and be an instructor, pay them a stipend, something extra. what's wrong with that? >> i think that would work in a general sense. we're just not equipped -- the tools don't exist for u

people are up for ransom and our administration will do -- especially the taliban that was released if wei had anyti idea or thought that these are going to go back and be peaceful loving citizens, we're fooling ourselves. and this to me is a scary press den the. >> one of the colleagues in the house took on these issues. she was briefed on the exchange, she came to cameras and talked . about, she talked about those who would criticize the exchange, here's what she had td say, we'll get youuar response it. >> it's likely that at the end of the conflict those individuals who never were -- there were no specific charges against them, that it is very possible, very likely, that at the end of the conflict that those individuals would have had to have been released. we then might have gotten therw nothing. the reason that this operation took place when it did is that there was reason to believe apparently that sergeant bergdahl's life was in danger wt got something for that exchange. i don't understand. i am mystified and disgusted that the fact that this kind of successful operation now is bei
