"harvested in higher" is yours. if you pledge $100, you can also get the book of juan gonzalez, which the film is booked on. at holiday time, just a few weeks ago, the curators of the smithsonian recommended reading his book, which is required reading in classrooms across the country. it is an amazing book, "harvest of the entire." if you want to get both, what an incredible educational resource. the book and dvd are yours for contribution of $150. think about that as he watched recall in. let us know you ar

the united states knew they were defeated. there was a a telegram from the japanese emperor asking for peace. everybody knew that they were defeated and looking for a way out. the people who knew that the best were the russians because the russians were asked to intervene on their behalf and get them better surrender terms. once the russians invaded, that undermined both their diplomatic strategy and their military strategy. that is what really ended the war. we had already been bombing japanese cities. we firebombed over 100 cities. from the japanese standpoint, a a 200 planes and 1000 bombs could not change the equation, but it was the russian invasion. >> dahlin move a huge army -- alin move the huge army towards japan. if you really are interested in ending this war and using russian troops, it was perfect. >> let's start with a quip from the series. this challenges the prevailing logic of world war ii, the so- called "good war." quakes generations of americans have been taught that the united states reluctantly dropped bo

the united states. >> eduardo lopez, you have remarkable footage that has never been seen before in this country throughout. in a moment, we're going to el salvador to talk about what drove a lot of the migration here. where did you get it? >> many, many sources. there's a lot of footage that has never been seen, that hasn't been seen in decades. again, this is a testament to the team that created this. our editor, catherine shields, is amazing. and so is our co-director, peter getzels. i have to say about the dominican republic, i'd like to make a point that one of the main reasons we made this film is to be personified by junot diaz, who is contributing as one of our great american writers. his whole life was changed dramatically by our invasion of the dominican republic in 1965 with 23,000 marines. something that most americans know nothing about because all of this history is never taught in our schools and colleges. so for latinos, whose life is turned upside down by our own government actions and

bill don't you find it very problematic that the united states likes to support the i.c.c. against its enemies but it's not a member of it and will not join it. that's hypocrisy absolutely. yeah. that is a very appropriate allegation of hypocrisy and i have spoken out publicly in favor of the u.s. joining the i.c.c. i think it's outrageous that we claim to be a country devoted to the principles of. vod justice and equity and yet do not join an international organization. that upholds those principles the i.c.c. was created largely as a result of pressure being brought by n.g.o.s such as human rights watch and amnesty international and so forth. the governments were not pressing the governments were brought into it but the problem is is that many of the important countries of the world the great powers of the world if you will including the united states china japan india and so forth have refused to join and as long as those countries are repudiating the i.c.c. it loses its credibility ok lawrence i mean what do you think about this i mean you've got a who looks out to the

states out of another war now that peace try to keep the united states out of another war could have impact here but the problem is he what he could potentially try to keep united states out of another war without being able to either to offer a vision for another way to deal with this challenge the islamic republic poses a real challenge for the united states and a real challenge to israel in the region that challenges to significantly constrain both the united states and israel's preferred strategy for the region which is to project force whenever wherever and whatever degree we want unilaterally the islamic republic of iran challenges that not with tanks so that they go and park their tanks in other people's countries they challenge that with their narrative they. pose that viscerally at its core chuck hagel said some very unflattering things about the stray lobby that they're quote unquote intimidating a lot of people in washington and also they are to say american interests should trump israeli interests if they conflict and that is the subversive thing to say here in washington

disagree completely i think russia is a huge threat to the united states not to the united states or the united states citizens security wise secure no it's security wise it's no threat to the united states it's a threat to the uni polar vision of the western uni polar vision of the world it's a threat to us hegemony it's a threat to the us being able to exert political military economic influence in different areas of the world that's the threat to russia presents to the united states and russia is in that case the biggest threat to the united states in the world china has the capability but not the political will it's part of their nature as an elite they're all engineers within a pullet bureau they don't they don't they don't have that aggressive combative attitude russia has some semblance of the ability. increasing after having faded but they have the political will where no other country in the world has been reading my notes multi-polar world if you think russia is being vindicated slowly but surely that that's the path that the world should take because when you look at major

the united states came to afghanistan for the security of the united states. and also for afghans. that act -- those unfortunate incidents of the lives lost in afghanistan were for the safety and security of the united states. and also, by extension, for the rest of us in the international community. just like the sacrifice of the afghan people. thank you. >> the next organization we would like to thank for organizing this event and the events like this in the university will be the lecture fund. >> i'm a member of the lecture fund and a sophomore. in the new york times, taliban fighters that lay down arms are getting increasingly frustrated and returning to the taliban. they cite a high unemployment rate for the reason for their frustration. what will you do to combat this trend? >> the high peace council whose chairman is here with us, a fund is dedicated to this purpose. this is the reintegration program. they are driven back with society. if there are instances, and i am sure there are, it requires assistance sooner and we will definitely look at it. it is a very important ques

states is that the united states is legalizing it at home but continuing the war on drugs in mexico so how do you square the circle. well i mean you know colorado and washington had votes but frankly federal law is still supreme in what federal laws and this is what president obama has said numerous times is that marijuana still illegal so i think the message to the world is that just because two states decided to legalize marijuana that this is really going to be caught up in the courts for a while and this is really the beginning of the conversation and not be and you know unfortunately voters were sold a false choice between prohibition on one side and super inforced and criminalization and legalization on the other side and the reality is that this is actually a false choice this is not between legalization or prohibition you can actually have a kind of policy that it's much more nuanced than that ok peter in washington what do you think about what the people in colorado and washington have done recently in the last election well given the choices and frankly i think kevin. has

if you look across the united states, 78% of the counties of united states have zero murders in any given year. 3% of the county's account for almost 75% of the murders. you live in washington, d.c. and once a year, "the washington post" put out a graphic that shows the distribution of murders and they are not evenly spread out. they are heavily concentrated within a few areas within the city. that is pretty much true in all the major cities where you see this disproportionate number of murders. unfortunately, we have a very concentrated drug gang problem. they fight against each other in order to control drug turf. the highest murder rate in the united states was 1932 which was last year a prohibition where you had mob's fighting against each other to control the distribution of alcohol. it is not like of one gang comes on to your turf, you call the police. you set up your own military to protect that. on the issue of magazines -- before i go on -- it is not an easy issue. you go and liberalize drug rules and more drug use and there will be problems but you will see less gang violence th

we recognize the united states interest and afghanistan and the region and the united states recognizes that afghanistan is a good country. and has a life of its own. it has a law of its own and has a social context of its own. in that social context afghanistan will move forward in partnership with america and also until partnership with the other countries of nato that have helped us in the past many years. will afghanistan, beyond 2014, be a country that you can visit as tourists? yes, it will. will afghanistan suffer the consequences of terrorism? it might on occasions. will the peace process work? it will. will the peace process take us back to times where the afghan woman could not go to work? no. will we keep our progress it is part of if peace process? yes. it is important today to get through this forum where the afghan woman council was created many years ago. if afghanistan will have peace but peace with the taliban will not drive us away from the gains that we have made. rather those gains will definitely be consolidated and those gains will remain with the afghan people. yo

in the refugee program, having worked with the united states or a u.s.-affiliated organization is one of the criteria that can help you get access to the program but it is not the sole criteria. >> this has been such a good hearing and a serious issue. we want to make sure that we continue this program -- these programs -- ensuring the safety of the refugees and the safety of the americans. have you been briefed on any possible effect that sequestration might have on the departments and these programs? >> at the state department, we have looked at overall sequestration. i know that our program has been adequately funded in the past. our expectation is that, in the coming year, that the program should be able to continue at similar levels. it would be hard to say it would be at the same level. a lot of the infrastructure we have in place overseas and domestically i think will remain. the question will probably be what happens in longer-term and i cannot answer that at this point. >> uscis is in an unusual position in that most of our programs including th

one is about to be sworn in as an officer of the united states navy. i will introduce you to the whole family. my daughter, who is a social worker. and my daughter in law on the left. my number three granddaughter, 9 number two granddaughter, nine no. 4 granddaughter -- my number two granddaughters, my no. 4 granddaughter, my oldest granddaughter who is a freshman in college now, naomi. and my third son. i told my daughter when she married, if you change your mind, i'm keeping him. [laughter] i'm very proud of them although i would be happy to claim as my this is a family affair. kids, grandkids, moms, dads. you all get it. you get what it is so important today. we still have 68,000 troops in harm's way in some of the most godforsaken territory in the world. one of the things that you all know -- they are not looking for anything. but knowing that you remember. that we back home remember, we know what is going on. this is an important piece of the equation. another important piece as they started the organization, their families, -- [indiscernible] fig

we united states is not. what we need in the united states is not. what we need in the united states is not violence and lawlessness. but is love. and wisdom and compassion toward one another. feeling it justice. so what those who still suffer within our country whether they be right whether they be black guys mace or race might not be the dividing factor it once was but we continue to be a country divided nonetheless you know i tend to end the show with a lot of cynicism we would be blind to not recognize at face value alone the milestone this country has reached and electing a black man as our president were only fifty years ago blacks and whites couldn't even sit together in a diner as much criticism that i have for this administration it's important to recognize the revolution that has occurred in this nation social consciousness and with all the division hatred has an ism that exists at this moment among the populace we don't heed dr king's most profound advice of all he said darkness cannot drive out darkness only light can do that hate cannot

at the same time, a lot of expansion is in the united states, once the united states captured mexico city begin to argue that, in fact, maybe the u.s. should annex all of mexico. after all, you've are recaptured the capital city, why not take it all? people around the country began to question whether this war should go on any further. the turning point occurs two months after scott occupies mexico city. on november 14, 1847, when henry clay give them major antiwar speech in lexington, kentucky, after the war. against the war. now, clay have been out of the public spotlight since its disastrous and terrible defeat by james k. polk in the election of 1844. a defeat which he never expected and, frankly, did not believe. and the defeat was probably caused by the fact that he was opposed to the war. unfortunately, henry clay not only have suffered through the defeat at his namesake and favorite son henry clay junior, like john j. hardin although he was awake, volunteered to lead troops into mexico. so junior becomes a leader, a kentucky troops, takes them down to mexico and he is killed

europe suffered a worse economic downturn than the united states, a loss of gdp, employment. unemployment soared into the double digits. >> we started calling what's happening now the eurozone debt crisis, essentially in may, 2010, which is when greece received its first bailout funded by the international monetary fund and eurozone countries. and since then, the crisis has spread throughout the eurozone to several other countries: ireland, then portugal, now spain and cyprus, and reaching italy, uh, and has mutated from a strictly sovereign-debt government crisis to a banking crisis and sort of sectoral crisis. >> the origins of the european debt crisis are multiple. the approximate cause was the fact that many countries recently have had a large increase in budget deficits and there's lots of public debt to levels that are unsustainable. in some countries this was due to bad fiscal behavior, too much spending, too little taxes like in greece, but in other parts of the eurozone, like spain or ireland, the problem was that there was a bubble in real estate and housing. when t

and the united states to intervene so that's going to be ongoing and yes the longer that chavez is away the more time that will give them to prepare and to further prior progress with plans to the stabilize his government and try to create some situation where new elections can be can mean. the e.u. is back to deal designed to reduce violence by on wednesday the president of the european council herman van rompuy held top level talks in dublin after the country took over the rotating presidency list top the fish mackellar showing him first and of the people's movement in ireland patricia even to thanks for going r.t. european council president there saying island there's a special case which is why the country secured this deal on its crippling sixty four billion euro bank debt it's going to be able to retain the status of coming expect to see it eventually fall apart of countries like greece though what do you think's ahead well i think there's a lot of propaganda thrown in that position within ireland at the moment and how it is doing and i think that's basically it all took trying to

narrator: over 300 million people live in the united states. and each person uses an average of 100 gallons of water every day. man: what it takes to actually make clean water is somewhat a mystery to most customers. woman: so how does water get from the river into your house, or here at school? woman: somebody has to bring that water to us, and somebody has to take it away when we're finished with it. man: the water infrastructure is vital for disease protection, fire protection, basic sanitation, economic development, and for our quality of life. man: you just can't visualize all the assets that are under our feet. we have about two million miles of pipe in this nation. if you're walking around in an urban area, you're probably stepping on a pipe. man: our grandparents paid for, and put in for the first time, these large distribution systems. woman: and in many cases, it's not been touched since. man: we're at a critical turning point. much of that infrastructure is wearing out. narrator: our water infrastructure is made up of complex, underg

it is reaffirmation of the enduring bonds between the united states and italy and tribute to our history as partners and allies and marker of our shared value and heritage. our ties are embedded in the very root of the american story. america is discovered by the italians and named by an italian and built by thousands of italians and our community representing literally millions of bridges between the countries. through research and innovation italy will remain a bafton of creativity and beautiful. may our common history and sustained by our common values and common faith in the future continue to grow and flourish. with warmest regards, nancy pelosi". thank you very much. [applause] >> so mayor lee, senator leno, state assembly member and leaders and ladies and gentlemen. it's a real honor for me to celebrate with you today the start of the italian culture in the united states. nancy pelosi was with our foreign minister in washington dc, but san francisco is the first major city after washington dc that follows suit, that follows washington dc, so again a little like the giants that wan

[applause] please join me in welcoming my friends and an extraordinary leader whose tireless work led to the election of women across our nation be president of emily's list. [applause] >> thank you so much. thank you to our national co- chair and our coast and sponsors and a special thank you is your council members. it is always great to see so many good friends, especially when we have so much to celebrate together. look around. this is what making history looks like. it is a senate with 21 men, -- women, including the first women senators from massachusetts and hawaii. it is 16 new pro-choice democratic women in congress. it is the first openly gay senator the first asian american woman senator. the first congress women who served in combat. we have three new women under the age of 40. it is a congress with no alan west, no joe walsh, and no todd akin. we have fought so hard. we have one so much. we have come so far i am so proud as a woman and as an american. make no mistake. we

the united states is a great country. one of the things that makes us so great is that though we have made mistakes we change, we correct them, we right past wrongs. it is our responsibility as a nation to do right by america's native people. those who exercise sovereignty on lands that later became part of the united states. while we can never change the past we have the power to change the future. throughout my career, i have worked to ensure that my colleagues understand the federal relationship with native peoples and its origins in the constitution. the united states policy of supporting self-determination and self-governance for indigenous peoples leads to native self-sufficiency, resulting in our continued ability to be productive and contribute to the well-being of our families, our communities and our great nation. that is why i work to secure parity in federal policy for my people the native hawaiians. the united states has recognized hundreds of alaska native and american indian communities. it is long past tim

congress won't let them into the united states. the stumbling block is yemen is unstable, we don't want people in the united states, if we don't let them in the united states we go to other countries and say if you don't take them and why should we take them in? it is a stepping stone system. >> when more people care and there was more criticism because it was president bush, and it percolated through globally and even domestically that something was deeply wronged and there was a lot of criticism president bush was releasing prisoners. there wasn't the questions we have now from the point of view of seem to be deeply unfavorable to release anyone. the most massive case had to be made for the release of anybody so we ended up with an extraordinary situation where prisoners are held which is deeply unacceptable but with almost the to release an five years ago. we are not fundamentally talking about different people. around half of the prisoners were cleared for release under president bush but he wasn't releasing them at the time be

the united states. we do this in a peaceful orderly way. there is no mob, no cot, no insurrection, this is a moment when millions stop and watch. a moment most of us always will remember. it is a moment that is our most conspicuous and enduring symbol of the american democracy. how remarkable that this has survived for so long in such a complex country when so much power is at stake. this freedom devote to our leaders and the restraint to respect the results. last year at mount vernon, a tour guide told me that our first president, george washington, once posed this question: what is most important, washington asked of this grant experiment? the united states. and then washington answered his own question in this way: not the election of the first president, but the election of its second president. the peaceful transfer of power is what will separate our country from every other country in the world. so today we celebrate the 57th inauguration of the american president. find the good and praise it.

states i'm not here to bash america i love the united states but western values and virtues important word is more than just the us i would trace this back i suppose to the ancient greeks to hell in it culture through to the romans to the birth of christianity very important that of course came from the middle east but expanded into into europe and the west of course but things have been done in the name of western values terrible things of committing the crime of love democracy freedom communism all sorts of things but if we think about progress science the enlightenment for example the power to enforce slavery but then the ability of the morality to end slavery so it's just too facile to say that the west is bad the west is wrong and if you look at the emerging world it's not embracing the values of say the former soviet union it's embarrassing the english language a controlled capitalism progress something approaching what the west enjoys now civility democracy it goes wrong but generally goes right the feeling i mean you can take some of the values like democracy ok but you should

everybody sitting at the table, i have a number of united states attorneys. almost all of them have been in the u.s. attorney's office before. some of them are still in private practice. good luck to them. but a number of us have bounced back and forth. i think a number of us would say the most rewarding time we have had has been the time when we were in public service. you are given the opportunity to contribute. it really is a gift. the biggest gift i have had the opportunity to do this kind of work. and if the challenge of attracting and retaining great people is one that cuts across administration's where you serve, another is responding to concerns about the patriot acts. i wanted to give you a chance about what the fbi has learned in your view about the patriot act since it passed. >> the greatest benefit of the patriot act was a breakdown of the statutory walls between the fbi and cia. those walls were erected some time ago where what you did internationally had very little bearing on what was done domestically and vice versa. you cannot get a picture

states and it's an effort to stop the people the united states who have the ability and historically have created the progressive change in this country and they act to protect the establishment which is the other thing you see in these documents these documents show the f.b.i. over and over again meeting with and partnering with the banks and wall street the very entities that people are rising up to protest against because of the fact that they caused this huge economic crisis and suffering here well put you know i can't help but think i know that this is kind of blown out of proportion but that plot to assassinate members of occupy that was also heavily redacted in the documents but you know it's not even that part of the story which is upsetting that they didn't warn people what's what i think is interesting that the tables were turned if it was an occupied member planning to assassinate someone externally outside of that movement i just can't help but they put the media would take it and say she lives it and use it to discredit the entire movement but of course they would the me

congress, by the united states courts, by the majority of the main stream media in the united states and by the american people. that sadly is the truth. when you look at what that means, what does it mean for the people in guantanamo to be -- the most important fact we all need to be aware of on this day, and as mo eluded to, over half of the prescribers in guantanamo have been cleared for release from that prison by a very sober and responsible group of government officials and lawyers, from all the government departments in the intelligence agency in a report issued three years ago. so these are decisions made maybe four years ago. as mo very well put it, these are not people needed to be held because they pose a security risk or because they have ongoing intelligence value to the united states, and yet they have not knot been released. the united states went through a very high level process of saying to these men we don't want to hold you anymore, and then didn't release them. now, in half of these cases these men were previously cleared for release by military review board unde

states has caused the world but the truth is i think he's overstated the how much the united states has hurt the earth and also you know the reality is he just can't close i mean we've got a retired marine corps general. joseph hoar they wrote you know good moves morally and financially expensive symbol of detainee abuse will remain open while in the future congress are all too willing to undermine our deals in the names of fighting terror terrorism i mean these are military leaders saying this no i think defense is right that it i mean let's be honest here you probably can't get it close but all i'm saying is that it's not like the president's even trying anymore he's completely given up his second term on that first term promise which is sort of i feel like i don't want to destroy the group you're going to is going to they did block the funding to move these people but the president could go through the department of justice file official charges if you are going to call.

states and i think in the case is no exception the united states has the largest military base in the western hemisphere based in honduras they have very very high interest in the agribusiness in honduras so i think the interests of the united states are more in line with maintaining the status quo and maintaining the good relationships that the united states has with honduras in terms of business that it is with you know keeping in line with what's going on there and so but no like you said the relationship goes way back in fact the political parties in honduras were established by the united states back when the region were all but nana republics and now you know how many years later. you know we're not that that far from where we started on the arc of being a failed state in honduras and of course i mean the war on drugs really continues to perpetuate this this instability the violence i mean it really is all pioneered by the u.s. we have about thirty seconds left but i just wanted you to expand on what you're telling me earlier about the political instability that the potential cr

states, he will protect the constitution of the united states, and that is what i hope he takes very literally, and not hypocritically. i hope that he does take it literally, like i said. >> he brings up the topic of guns and gun violence. something that we will hear from the president in the weeks ahead. do you think it will be in the inaugural address? >> not explicitly. maybe some reference to making our country safer, keeping our children safe may be in their, but he will not make a pitch for gun legislation, not explicitly. >> what makes a successful second inaugural address? [laughter] >> getting to make it.
