i spoke with former defense secretary william cohen. >> they have responded to the why that the u.s. is going to give non-lethal aid by saying wie don't want food, drink and bandages. we want arms. >> it may be too little, too late in terms of the syrian opposition. they may look at this and say where have you been? the more radical groups in the movement itself seem to be gaining support from the syrian public. so unless they can get substantial military stance, they are not rejecting it, but it is $60 million, bringing it to over $100 million. it is not something he can walk away from, but the message is it is not enough. we can't win under these circumstances. >> but why can't they have arms if it means fewer would be killed because it would end the conflict more quickly? >> you still have iran behind the scenes, and russian still has a big hand to play here. that is another thing that secretary kerry has to be concerned with. he has met with his counterpart from russian. russian has shown very little interest in bringing about a settlement, and they have said we can't help her. >

kerry saying that he was here to support the mission brotherhood and push an american interest william cohen analyst and author of myths lies in the oil wars things washington is starting to realize it may be supporting the wrong side in egypt i think there's a double space policy in washington the backing of the muslim brotherhood calls back to the cia's role in each of the nine hundred fifty s. when he saw the muslim brotherhood as a potentially useful tool to put in their. organizations that they manipulate around the world i think some people around president obama. the delusion that they could control was basically political islamofascism movement of the movement for democracy and he's for much of the imagination at this point morsi is in a life and us struggle because the popular support is not there for this this who and washington is beginning to get a little bit wobbly on us or diplomacy for that reason they're beginning to rethink i think that's one of the reasons for the change between hillary clinton and john kerry to bring in a new cast of people and see. what kind of options th

i ask especially because recently bloomberg economic journalist william cohen had an article on this on the front page of "the washington post," and this is what he said: quantitative easing not only hurts old or or americans -- older americans on fixed incomes and those who have dutifully saved for retirement, it also frustrates younger people who can't afford to take advantage of historically low mortgage interest rates. mainly, bernanke's quantitative easing helps wall street's banks and traders, a dynamic that could be setting us up for another financial crisis as investors again seek out higher-yielding, lower quality investments that wall street is only too happy to provide. >> right. i don't want agree with that last part -- i don't agree with that last part. i don't think there are a lot of people on wall street that are just delighted that interest rates are zero. there's a lot of lenders there, and they like to get more than zero when they lend. that said, what you said or mr. cohen, i'm not sure if -- >> i was reading it, yes. >> -- said about low interest rates hurting pe

. >>> later today i'll speak with william cohen about north korea's latest threat and rejection of u.n. security council resolution that demands an end to their nuclear arms program. that comes up at 1 p.m. eastern time. >>> new england is digging out after a winter storm. harsh waves taking serious toll on one massachusetts home friday. that house is on plumb island, now hanging over the water there at a 45-degree angle. however, there are some promising signed, not for that house, that spring is around the corner. dylan dreyer is here with more. good morning. >> good morning. as one storm pulls away in the northeast, we're watching another storm pummel the minute west and it will bring some snow to some areas. it's also going to bring some severe weather. look at how warm it is down across texas right now into the mid-60s. it is going to warm up significantly later on today. that's going to help spark some very strong storms, especially across central texas. so, we'll watch out for the potential for hail and lightning and strong gusty winds as well. we'll see strong winds across west

coming up, don't forget kilmeade and friends, peter king, william cohen, the defense secretary, formerlive in studio. >> steve: good radio show. all right. a friday afternoon late in the day, there was a document dump. the united states department of agriculture released the numbers of how many americans are on food stamps. it's the biggest number in history. in december, 47,791,996 americans had to get these cards to put food on their table. >> gretchen: some people are concerned that the fact this number continued to escalate dramatically over the last couple of years. here is fox news contributor herman cane last night. >> because the federal government has made a mess of the program by exploiting the program and exploiting those people who have learned how to abuse the program. the food stamp program, greta, is a misnomer. with two words, food and stamps. it's no longer just about helping people to get food. it helps them to get free stuff and secondly, because some bureaucrats thought that people going in and handing in stamps was a somewhat insulting, they now have given them a g

william coleman. what about bill cohen? can we get some more of that?ead, we get conservatives who are simply out-of-bounds. we get insult wielding lightweights like sarah palin. and glen beck. or we get tea party partisans who are ruining our country and the republican party, by the way, by throwing fits when they can't get their way. if you want to reach out to black and other minorities, treat us like adults, respect our history. tell the truth about our own and yours as well. stop practicing stereotype mongering. stop trying to exploit immigration policies. you'd be surprised how far that could get you. let's bring in ohio state senator nina turner. >> you're from a swing state where access to the ballot box is critical. what would you like to say about the rnc's outreach effort? >> well, they believe that they have a branding problem. they have, they need to change their policies. you know, in order, they didn't trick enough people last year, so they need to change their rhetoric. what they need to change, is their policies. if they want more women
