Transcripts For CNNW Wolf 20150327

Letter that indicated that he was declared by a medical doctor unfit to work. Investigators say they found medical excuse notes that had been ripped up, including one for the day of the crash. Theyre not saying what the illness was. But they say the evidence does indicate lubitz was trying to hide that evidence. Were also learning more about what investigators didnt find in his apartment or in his familys home. No goodbye letter or suicide note no evidence that his actions were driven by politics or religion. Also today, lufthansa, thats the Parent Company of the germanwings airliner announced that it had adopted a new rule. It now requires two people to be in the cockpit at all times. Lets sort out the latest on the investigation with our experts. Here in washington our Law Enforcement analyst, the former fbi assistant director tom fuentes and our aviation analyst, peter goelz, former ntsb managing director. Joining us from new york our aviation correspondent richard quest. We dont know if it was a mental or physical issue, do we . Theyre trying to figure that out. But theyve been so transparent over the past few days we should know pretty soon right . Well were in the midst of the privacy laws of germany, which are far stricter in many ways. Thats one of the reasons we dont know. The german media is talking about anxiety. Its talking about depression. Its talking about some form of Mental Illness or mental incapacity in some way, various levels. But weve not got any confirmation of that. So lets be quite clear. We do know that there was a diagnosis so he did go to a University Medical center and there was a diagnosis. We know there were several sick notes to get him off work including one for tuesday chd been ripped up and were found in the garbage can of his apartment. We know there was this diagnosis, this illness but we dont know what and well wait to see how they circumvent the laws or at least manage to do justice to the laws so that they can release what it was. The laws over there are obviously a bit different than they are here in the United States. Tom fuentes, youre a former fbi assistant director. Ive been impressed with how quickly theyre developing this case right now. Were learning so much on a daytoday sometimes hourtohour basis. Theyre able to say so much more publicly about it because theyre not worried about protecting a defendants right before a prosecution. Hes not going to be prosecuted. They can be forthright about what theyre finding. Well see. The german investigation obtained the documents yesterday. French police have transported those documents to marseilles today. Well see if that prosecutor speaks out today on what they found. I want to go to dusseldorf for the latest on whats going on over there. Will ripley is outside the family home over there. Will what are you learning about this situation . Obviously a very sad situation, a very dramatic situation. It seems to be releasing new information on as i said, an hourly basis. Unfortunately, i think weve not been able to connect with will ripley. But we will as soon as we reconnect that audio. Peter, if the u. S. Were in charge of this investigation, would we know as much about what happened so quickly . No wed be much more reticent in i think tom is right. We have no suspect or criminal to prosecute. But we would be much more reticent to release this kind of information so quickly. It would take weeks, if not more than that. They still havent found the flight data recorder. They got the cockpit voice recorder where theyve come up with the evidence of what was going on the door was locked he was trying to get back in and the copilot wouldnt let him back in. Once we find that flight data recorder, what else will we learn . It will confirm exactly what steps the copilot took to drive the plane into the ground. It will show, i think, a very deliberate stepbystep plan that is going to show a lot of premeditation. He was thinking about this for a long time. What else do we know richard, about this individual this copilot 28 years old, apparently he was wellliked. He seemed to have a relatively normal friendship with a lot of people out there. If he did have severe mental problems we dont know if he did, they apparently were hidden to his colleagues and friends. Absolutely. Thats spoton. We can divide his life if you like, into several sections. Youve got the growing up in his hometown where we hear he was quiet, wellliked seemingly a normal child growing up. And then you have this period where he goes to the flying school which is close to where he lived. And there they say he was a man who was totally dedicated to his gliding and his flying. And he was absolutely delighted when he was able to finally achieve his dream job of becoming an airline pilot. In the middle of that wolf you get this training period where we know that he went to lufthansas Training Academy in phoenix, arizona, having taken a sixmonth gap or severalmonth gap for an undisclosed reason. And then finally you get him to a point where hes offered and given a job as a first officer at germanwings in 2013. And, wolf, this is interesting because those who know him then say he was quiet, he was wellliked. Those who flew with him are believed to say there was nothing particularly out of the ordinary. Listening to what tom was saying, in short, so far, nobody has come up with the that comment that says i always thought there was something strange about lubitz. We havent heard that yet. But the doctor apparently said he was unfit to work those were the specific words absolutely. Weve reestablished our connection with will ripley in dusseldorf outside the family home. Those words are powerful words, will. Tell us how they came about, the basis, the evidence for this conclusion from this doctor that he supposedly was unfit to work. Reporter wolf police have been out here throughout the day. Officers are still guarding the apartment of lubitz, its the White Building behind me on the top floor. This is a quiet neighborhood this is a shock to the people who live here. As weve gone around the neighborhood talking to people this young man, as you were saying outwardly at least appeared as if everything was going well in his life. And yet inside that apartment, investigators say they found evidence these medical notes that were torn up and thrown in a trash can in the apartment that showed that lubitz had been receiving treatment for what was described as an illness. Now, were hearing from the University Medical center here in dusseldorf saying that in fact while they acknowledge that this young man, 27 years old, was brought in for treatment, he went in in february and then went in again on march 10th to get his diagnosis, they specifically say that he was not being treated for depression although we need to keep in mind just because its not depression theres a whole host of other conditions both mental or physical that are a factor here and thats certainly something that investigators are looking at very closely here. Have they said will whether or not he was on any specific medications . Reporter no word of any medications because aside from saying that this is not a depression condition, they are citing patient Confidentiality Laws here in germany that are not allowing them to release more information. We know very little other than the fact that it is being said that it was not depression this illness he was being treated for apparently since at least february not depression according to the clinic here in dusseldorf. Well see if we can find out why they did conclude that he was unfit to work. We have a lot of news coming in. Up next, the planes flight data recorders. Its still missing.

In this image, take a look at this. You can see different parts of the plane which have been located so far in a debris field scattered over an area said to be larger than a square mile treacherous, mountainous terrain at an altitude of 5,500 feet with no access roads. Right now, helicopters and hiking equipment are the only way to access the area. Our pam joins us once again to discuss this search. Our Law Enforcement analyst, tom fuentes and aviation analyst peter goelz. Peter, the sheer size of this area and the fact that this huge plane crashed into this mountain at 400 miles an hour it shattered into so many pieces when i said daunting thats an understatement. It is an understatement. They will desperately try to identify what they call the four corners of the plane. The two wings, the nose and the tail and then try and start to lay the shattered pieces out on a grid. But, boy, i dont think theyre going to get very far with that because theyll have some pieces. But i dont think theres much youre going to be able to pick up from the devastation. Because normally youve been involved in a lot of these crash scenes. They try to reassemble a plane to try to learn what happened. In this particular case you dont think theyll be able to do that . I dont think so. We know what happened. The guy locked the door and flew the plane into the mountain. You may want to recover the door but i dont think theres a lot of investigative knowledge that can be gained by spending the resources and the time to reconstruct this. What you want to do is spend your resources on recovering the victims remains and doing the dna thats going to be required to identify all of them. One quick question on the dna, will they be able to determine, assuming they find his dna, what kind of medication he might have been taking at that time . Thats a very difficult question. You cant imagine the Destructive Force of an accident like this. And remember he was sitting in the front of the plane. They may find simply if they find anything it may be just traces. What are investigators looking for now in his apartment, in his family home . For his mental condition and profile. Theyre going to want to know his relationships, his financial situation, his work situation. Everything about him that might cause him to do something drastic like hes done. And oftentimes with a person at his age, oftentimes, relationships matter. Boyfriend, girlfriend but there was no suicide note no what they call goodbye note. He could have been driving to the airport to go to work and gotten a phone call that said its over, not seeing you anymore, that could have added to the mental situation he would have already been in. But well have to hear more about this medical condition because its a persistent condition. He didnt catch a cold and go to the doctor. Theyre talking about multiple notes over a longer period of time. What kind of persistent chronic condition did he have . Theyre saying now it was not depression. There could be obviously a lot of other causes. But depression you heard that report from will ripley that depression is apparently not something he was suffering from. And the investigators so far have been very careful about putting out information. For instance even in the very first press conference, they indicated it was not a decompression event. They gave us hints. So i think here theyre trying to stop the speculation before it goes off track. So i think we can take that as pretty good guidance. Guys, stand by. We have a lot more coming up. Much more on the crash n. French alps. Also the deadline for reaching a nuclear deal with iran is fast approaching. Up next my interview with the chairman of the Senate Foreign relations committee, bob corker.

Thats coming up in a few moments. But another important story were following, the deadline is fast approaching for the framework of the nuclear deal with iran. The French Foreign minister says tehran needs to make a new effort to get a deal. Lets bring in Tennessee Republican senator bob corker hes the chairman of the Senate Foreign relations committee. Mr. Chairman thanks very much for coming in. I know youre being briefed by the administration. Deal or no deal . What do you think . Actually, you would be surprised how little briefing is taking place. Why would they not be briefing you . Youre the chairman of the Foreign Relations committee. So many people in a bipartisan way want to make sure that congress has the ability to weigh in, at least on the congressional sanctions if a deal is reached. Everyone wants to see a good deal achieved. What youll see over the next period of time is the announcement of a political arrangement, meaning that it doesnt have all the details. I think everyone understands the important elements are all the classified annexes that come with this that really give you insights as to how much transparency is going to exist, are we going to have the ability to detect covert programs . Are we going to understand where their research and development is going . Are we going to know what their previous military dimensions were . We know they were moving towards a bomb at one point in time. Those are the important elements i assume they have to share all that information with the chairman of the Foreign Relations committee at some point. Its been an amazing thing. Weve all again, we want to see a good deal one that creates stability in the region. But as you see what the white house is doing, theyre obviously moving away from israel towards a relationship with iran. And its very apparent to me what theyre trying to achieve is a balance of power between the shia sides and the more sunnioriented sides and a way for them to extract themselves out of the middle east. The missing component here is that iran has not changed its behavior. Were seeing right now whats happening in yemen. We know that if we make a bad deal and they actually get to a place where theyre one screwdriver turn away from having a Nuclear Weapon it creates proliferation possibly in the region. But the other thing is theyll have the ability, their economy will be growing, theyll have access to the 130 billion right now thats trapped overseas to even more fully destabilize the region. Because financially this will be bonanza if that 130 billion is freed up to go into their coffers. But thats a serious suggestion or accusation youre making that the Obama Administration wants to move away from the longstanding support, relationship with israel and sees iran as a substitute for israel. Is that what youre saying . Its obviously that the relationship with israel is diminishing, to a degree. Im not saying totally turning its back. But its moving more towards an iraniandominated relationship to create a balance of power. Youre seeing that happen right now. And, again, hil in a textbook that might be interesting. What youre not seeing from irans standpoint is a change in behavior. Youre seeing just the opposite. As a matter of fact what youre seeing is them being more in the face of the sunni population there. Youre seeing the head of the quds force becoming more of a celebrity. As concerned as the israelis are, the saudis a lot of the Sunni Arab States are equally concerned about this potential deal. No question. Its fascinating. You wake up in the mornings and here we are in iraq helping make iraq a better place for iran. Were working with them right now in tikrit in a loose way. And on the flip side of that in yemen where we know iran is supporting the houthis that are creating the destabilizing efforts that are taking place right now on the saudi side of that its almost like i know this is a little bit trite, but its almost like they say, i have friends on both sides. But its confusing as to where the United States is today in the region. You have a problem if the administration dont see this deal as a treaty which would require senate h ratification. Do you have a problem if they go to the United States Security Council for ratification first and then go to the United States senate and say, all of those sanctions that you imposed, you now take a vote on easing those sanctions . Heres the issue. We respect the fact that the administration has the right to do whatever they wish with the u. N. Security Council Sanctions that were imposed on iran. Thats an executive activity. We respect the fact that there are executive sanctions they put in place. But you know this well. Congress put in place a whole host of congressionally mandated sanctions that really brought iran to the table. So what were saying is look we want a good deal negotiated. But before you start unraveling the ones that congress put in place, we want to make sure that you show us the deal. That we have access to those classified annexes. That we understand how well have accountability and enforceability and transparency. We want to know those things are going to exist. And before you alleviate our sanctions which means the entire sanctions regime basically unravels we want to be able to say grace over that. I think thats a responsible place for the United States senate and i would think that the administration if theyre going to do a deal that will stand the test of time move beyond their administration they would want buyin from the American People. We represent the American People. Are you okay they say this is not a treaty and it doesnt require a formal Senate Roll Call vote . I appreciate their position and believe that the position that weve taken representing the American People is also the appropriate place and that is again, for us to be able to vote up or down before they start moving away from the sanctions that we put in place. I think that is an appropriate balance. I think theyre going to be with you on that part on the sanctions i dont think theyre with us now. Let me say this i think were going to pass a deal. Chuck schumer, likely the next Senate Minority leader came on last night as a cosponsor while we were doing budget negotiations. I do think we are going to pass a piece of legislation that gives congress that ability to weigh in on behalf of the American People. Senator corker, well continue this conversation. Thanks very much for joining us. Thank you, sir. Bob corker chairman of the Senate Foreign relations committee. Coming up, back to our top story.

Welcome back to our viewers in the United States and around the world. Im wolf blitzer reporting from washington. Were getting stunning new revelations about the copilot of Germanwings Flight 9525. A medical doctor found Andreas Lubitz, quote, unfit to work. This according to a letter found today in a waste bin in his apartment in germany. Prosecutors say other documents reveal the 27yearold had a medical illness that he hid from his employers. Investigators also found tornup medical excuse notes. Translator weve secured documents that indicate a medical illness. We also found sick notes that were torn to pieces. Among the sick notes was one which covered the day of the crash. We assume the deceased kept his illness secret from his employer. In another major development, lufthansa, the Parent Company of germanwings, and other airlines now around the world have adopted a new rule. They now require two people to be in the cockpit at all times. Lets get a closer look at the copilots medical condition. With us peter goelz, former managing director of the ntsb also joining us the clinical psychologist, dr. Ruth wintersgreen. She also served in the United States air force. Ruth, thanks very much for joining us. Peter, glad to have you as well. This declaration by a medical doctor unfit to work were now learning that theyre saying in germany he was not suffering from depression. So what else could have caused a doctor lets say, to say hes unfit to work . First of all, we dont know if this was a psychiatrist psychologist or we only know it was a medical doctor. It could be a physical or emotionalal al youre a psychologist. If hes not suffering from depression this is hypothetical what potentially could he have been suffering from . Any number of things. Anxiety, ptsd it could be his being very upset, disturbed by a breakup. Speaking from an emotional standpoint. But also i wouldnt rule out given the seriousness of the act that it was lifethreatening or disabling medical condition that he was facing that generated a great deal of anger. And that he hid from his employers. Yes. Youve dealt with pilots. You served in the u. S. Air force and have given cowensinglingunseling pilots. Its an enormously stressful job. Most handle it very well. But it is something that probably most could benefit from occasional intermittent psycho psychotherapy is many of us could in stressful, demanding position. But the problem is correct me if im wrong, sometimes if they let their employer know theyre suffering from these psychological issues that could be a career ender. Exactly. And i think thats a possible benefit in this tragedy, would be to change the attitudes about seeking Mental Health care for the interest of public safety. Considering medications is one issue. That im not going to address so much. But psychotherapy really doesnt have any negative side effects. The issue of medication say we determine they find out what medications he may have been taking. Is it possible those medications could have caused this kind of tragedy . Thats probably a remote if used as prescribed thats a pretty remote possibility. As prescribed, key words. As prescribed. One thought that i had had in evaluating this case prior to being interviewed was and prior to the things that have come out over the course of today is that if he were sleepdeprived one problem that i have seen in individuals in various stressful occupations where theres sleep deprivation is sleep deprivation plus the use of amphetamines or an extreme amount of caffeine can lead to psychosis. But i dont think a typical antianxiety medication would cause this kind of behavior. Peter, when you were at the ntsb you did a lot of investigations of these crashes and got a look at the records of pilots and copilots. You hear this kind of conversation. What goes through your mind . We do. I hope there is a National Reassessment of how pilots and it is a stressful job. How pilots can seek help without putting their careers in jeopardy. I work with pilot unions. I work with Flight Attendant unions. And the idea of showing weakness or showing that you have a problem really is a threatening thing when they feel as though their career is on the line. And they tend not to do it. And the medical checkups that they have each year are not rigorous enough. For the same reason. Ruth peter, well continue our conversation. Were getting new information. Stand by for that. Were also following this other story involving the u. S. Relationship with iran as we just heard from senator corker. That relationship is tangled right now. How do the developments in yemen, iraq elsewhere impact the u. S. Relationship with iran and what affect will they have on other allies in the region and on this emerging nuclear deal . Stay with us. I really admire my mother. Despite what people said she bought me a sewing machine and she let me play with dolls and that was something that was kind of growing up culturally, it was quite unacceptable and she really dared to let me be different. [thunder and rain] [thunder and rain] [thunder and rain] boy once upon a time, there was a nice house that lived with a family. One day, it started to rain and rain. Water got inside and ruined everybodys everythings. The house thought she let the family down. But the family just didnt think a flood could ever happen. The reality is floods do happen. Protect what matters. Get flood insurance. Visit floodsmart. Gov flood to learn more. Much more on the plane crash in the frens alps. Plus your questions about the investigation in just a few minutes. But theres developing news in the middle east with yemen, saudi arabia and iran. The u. S. partners and iran are nearing a deadline for that socalled framework, a nuclear deal. Here in the situation room, i spoke with the Saudi Arabian ambassador to the United States about the deal. Listen listen. We hope this pans out. Everybody wants a peaceful solution to Irans Nuclear program but it has to be a verifiable agreement. And were just as concerned about the interference by iran in the affairs of other countries in the region whether its iraq syria, lebanon, yemen and other parts. We believe that irans behavior does not is not reassuring to people in the region. Lets talk about the nuclear options, saudi air strikes under way in yemen right now. Joining us from new york our cnn Global Affairs analyst, bobby ghosh, managing editor of quartz. Also joining us terrorism analyst, paul cruickshank. And from little rock arkansas retired general wesley clark, author of the new book dont wait for the next war. General clark, you heard senator corker a few minutes ago right here on cnn, hes the chairman of the Senate Foreign relations committee, say hes concerned the Obama Administration in effect is trying to rearrange the u. S. Relationships in throughout the middle east weaken israel to a certain degree and strengthen iran im paraphrasing. But youre reaction . I dont think thats the case. I think what the Obama Administration is trying to do is reduce the geostrategic conflict throughout the region. And thats to everyones benefit if we can do this. We had before 197879 we had a great relationship with iran. There are a lot of positive proamerican feelings there. Saudi arabia is our longtime friend and ally. We used to look at the middle east as two pillars, both saudi arabia and iran were u. S. Allies. So if we could get back to that and obviously maintain a strong israel and deal with the conflict in syria, all those things are positive. But we cant put Ground Troops in. We have to work on the margins. We have to work through diplomacy, economic assistance and where we can, military support. Thats what the Obama Administration is doing. Its a tough, tough strategy to follow. Bobby ghosh the administration clearly would like to see a positive spinoff from this emerging nuclear deal and see iran become a more constructive partner, shall we say, or player throughout the region. A lot of people are saying thats simply Wishful Thinking on the part of some Obama Administration officials. Your thoughts . Yeah, i would tend to agree with those people. I think it is very much Wishful Thinking. The Obama Administration is hoping that iran once these sanctions are removed will take the money and help build an economy, free their people give people more opportunities and there will be Economic Reforms to follow. All iran wants is the money. Theyre not promising any of these other things. Theyve been blunt and clear about what they want. They want to expand their influence in the middle east. We are seeing that with every step they do. We cant blame the iranians in the future of hiding their intentions. Theyre being very clear. Its we or the administration that is taking the view that oh things are not what they seem. Things are better than they appear to be. Paul you also heard senator corker of the Foreign Relations Committee Say the iranians are about to get, if this deal goes through and these sanctions are eased, about 180 billion pretty quickly thats a lot of money for iran. Have you seen any evidence and you study terrorism right now, that iran is reducing its support for International Terrorism, the state department considers iran to be a state sponsor of terror . Well thats the sort of 64,000 question whether iran is going to be more pragmatic in the future if there is some kind of nuclear deal. Obviously the hope would be that they would be more pragmatic in the future that they would reduce the money going to terrorist groups like hezbollah and that they would try and persuade groups like hezbollah not to get involved in these kind of International Terror operations. Hezbollah has been accused of several operations even in europe even in bulgaria. So that all remains to be seen, wolf. What about whats going on right now, general clark, in yemen . The saudis have put together a coalition with egypt, jordan the United Arab Emirates qatar bahrain. Theyre clearly trying to go in there and fight what they regard as iranian proxies, these shiite houthi rebels. It looks like a proxy war, if you will. It is a proxy war. But this is going to be a very tough problem for saudi arabia and egypt to solve because theyre not in that country. And their troops even though they may speak arabic theyre foreign troops in that country. This is one more example of stirring the pot. Its going to likely provoke continuing iranian efforts to defend what they see as their interests through the shia population. Its going to likely involve some other threats to the saudi system lets say in bahrain, through the shia in bahrain or maybe even difficulties in the gulfrich Eastern Province of saudi arabia where theres a large shia population. So the saudis are well aware of this. They know what can happen. They see this as their vital interest. But its going to be a very tough fight. The saudis are nervous about a lot thats going on bobby. As you well know, last night, i interviewed the saudi ambassador to the United States and i specifically asked him a few times if you dont like this deal that the u. S. And other members of the Security Council and germany are putting together with iran could that lead to saudi arabia developing its own nuclear bomb . And i pressed him. And he refused to rule it out. He just didnt want to discuss that. But a lot of people are worried if the saudis dont like this deal and some other countries, egypt, for example, they may go that nuclear route as well. What do you say . The saudis are allowed to enrich uranium at the moment because theyre members of the nonproliferation treaty. Whether theyll go all the way towards getting a bomb themselves or turn to their traditional allies in these matters, which is pakistan the saudi military and the Pakistani Military are quite close, in recent days quite senior pakistani generals have visited the saudi arabia saudi arabia, they have that option. Sure if they believe the iranians are going to break out and make a dash for Nuclear Weapons, the saudis are going to want it whether they want their own or whether they want pakistans well see. Theyre calling it a war in yemen right now. Bobby, paul general, always good to have all of you here on cnn. Up next, much more on the deliberate crash in the french alps. Well answer your questions.

The germanwings crash investigation is raising lots of questions. Cnn wants to answer some of yours. Weve been asking you to submit questions about the crash on twitter. Lets get our panel for answers. Our Law Enforcement officer tom, eater and the clinical psychologist ruth. Peter, heres a question from stephen. Should a pilots medical examiner be mandated to contact the pilots employer if medically unsafe to fly . Thats a good question. The annual review pilots have is relooked at. We have to take it more seriously. Heres a question for ruth from derrick. Why dont airlines have their own doctors so they can report pilots health or doctors who report to airlines . This is an important question. When i was in the military deciding thinking of whether i wanted to be a psychologist in the military or not, outside the military. This changed this turned my decision because the kind of foundation of psycho therapy of Clinical Psychology is confidentiality. The if theres clear and intended victim if someone is expressing intent to harm the terosof act indicates we report and warn the victims. In the absence of that theres gray area. The problem having someone associated with their work evaluating is people wont tell. People wont come forward. They will be afraid if they think this is a career ender. Theyll lose their jobs. Tom, this is from mark. Why not design a cockpit with a bathroom food station, et cetera . Remove the reasons a pilot would leave the cockpit . Thats a great idea. Put a window they could slide food or coffee trays into them. Or equip with depend underwear. One underwear does that . Thats right. Ll has a version of that. Theres a center piece passengers cant access pilots can get up and leave without contact with the cabin. The Israeli Airlines are under Security Issues as well. Ruth do you know if pilots routinely go through Drug Screening . You served in the air force. Im sure they do there. Regulations change. Im not sure what types of medications they test for. My concern would be extreme caffeine use and Energy Drinks with someone sleep deprived or in a terrible emotional state could trigger an event. Were going to continue these questions here on cnn. We are getting a ton on twitter from viewers. That was from jodi perry. Stand by. Weve got news coming up about what led up to Bowe Bergdahls disappearance in afghanistan. Theres new information coming up. Were getting details about Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl this the moments leading up to his disappearance in afghanistan in 2009. Lets get to barbara starr. What are you finding out . Quick update. The Army Investigation report including claims by bergdahl he left the base in 2009 because he wanted to walk to the nearest u. S. Military outpost in afghanistan and report what he believed to be poor leadership poor leader and discipline in his unit. He left the base to find outpost to report that. Thats the claim in the report of what bergdahl has told investigators. This may be the first indication we have of the bergdahl defense of what happened why he left the base why he says he left the base. Whether it proves to be valid, whether it proves to be any acceptable defense to the u. S. Military Justice System which has now charged him with desertion. All of that remains to be seen in the Legal Proceedings against bergdahl. Were hearing what his intent was. He felt poor discipline and order in his unit. He was walking to the next unit in the middle of taliban country to try and report it. Thats the claim. Still he was charged with desertion. A lot of people in the u. S. Military didnt necessarily believe him. Much more coming up later today as well. Barbara, thank you. Thats it for me. Back at 5 00 p. M. Eastern in the situation room.
