stephen go ahead well firstly what i really wish the west has done of the west has done a lot for me the whiskey be a wonderful education when it was affordable the whiskey be everything that i have you know without without the west that i lived in i couldn't have what i have now there are a lot of wonderful things about the way as i pointed out before i see the very serious flaws and so i mean there are so many major ones there's not enough time to talk about them but certainly no nation has the right to intervene in the internal affairs of another unless that nation is attacking the host nation threatens to attack is far as american democracy goes i see nothing democratic about america they're all going to mind by that standard by this man as you will just by that said you would suggest interaction and iran by the united states because if it threatens to attack israel so by your standard the united states should pursue it but if i were on rails earlier your standard we should pursue those in gaza military militarily well that's well that's a big lie iran has threatened no one iran

first interest is the west and there should be no apology but it's not by now the west can have feel their own interest but if they can't control what the values mean democracy ok so i would tend to disagree with you on that ok you know be democratic but if you have an election we still don't like the outcome it sounds hypocritical why but again when those then we're going to have a deal with them whether the government when it is time here david you on jump in. now i just i just agree i agree with the point that that you know you accept what democracy has brought but you don't need to necessarily support the government and you can you can call on that new government for standards of governance for standards of governance for its own people for standards of governance in this relationship with its neighbors yes but david then then the palestinian people are being punished for voting the wrong way right i don't see how they're being punished by men for voting the wrong way ok well what i can assure you and i believe it all right c.n.n. you know it is now you know you've got gaza is un

well first you know where i wish the west is that of the west has done a lot for me. to pull the whiskey be everything that i have you know without without the west. the very serious flaws and. states because if it threatens to attack israel so by your standard the united states should pursue what i read on rails or earlier your standard we should pursue those in gaza military militarily well that's a well that's a big lie iran has threatened no one iran hasn't attacked another country in two or three centuries. you're right it's a good thing for a while you have a line in yours or a moral right this guy are a gentleman let's change gears here michael what about drones how does this you know the west looks intensely violent in that part of the world and the legality of it is very unclear talk about drones. you mean the middle east of afghanistan precisely talking about pakistan. pakistan and i think this is the most troubled and troubling region in the entire world actually for even more so than iran because you have a government in the country that still is meant to

hello and welcome to cross talk we're all things are considered time people is the west military intervention in mali still another example of the west's overall war against islam has there ever been one instance where an outside intervention in the name of fighting terrorism has ever produced peace stability and democracy and with the lessons of blowback ever be learned. to cross-talk the west's assault on the muslim world i'm joined by johnson in london he is an africa expert and in philadelphia we have daniel pipes he is a historian writer and political commentator all right gentlemen crosstalk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want iow if i can go to you first in london if we look back over the years here you know we've had the eight country and four years muslim country invaded assaulted whatever by western powers i mean is this a war against islam. but we would hope it's not a war against islam but there is the perception that the west has made from the mental mistakes very much and crucially in terms of the message that's been sent around the world there's got to b

talking about the west assault on the muslim world. i daniel i know you have to run really soon and i want you to finish the point that you made in the first part of the program so please do. thank you. there is volatility of extremism in the muslim world there's violence there's insurrection and outside powers are getting sucked in or want to come in and it's not just western powers there's a theory now in friends among several high ranking politicians that qatar is behind the the islamist rebellion in mali qatar another western power a muslim well isn't that a way to translate that isn't that really yes i do qatar but that's that's an appendage of the west qatar don't you think that they're pretty much on the same page. confuse me its hundred percent muslim country that has islamist goals that is sympathetic to islam is a no it's not part of the worst of all it's it's it's part of saudi arabia if you can put it that way with and with an islamist agenda so what want to have is suddenly what has muslim powers like turkey and qatar and
