News I'm Rachel Martin and I'm Steve Inskeep the United Nations Security Council is meeting today it's an emergency session about Turkey's invasion of Syria this is the 2nd day of the incursion Turkish troops we're told are attacking Kurdish forces along the border region by land and by air these are the same Kurdish troops who have been allied with the United States in the fight against ISIS Turkish forces were able to launch this attack after President Trump decided to move u.s. Troops out of the way even the president's most vocal allies in Congress and an evangelical Christian circles have been condemning this decision Joining us now by Skype is Robert Ford who served as the u.s. Ambassador to Syria during the Obama administration he's now a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute Good morning sir good morning and we should note that Secretary of State Mike Pompei o has defended the president's decision to pull some troops out of the way of Turkey he spoke last night to the p.b.s. News Hour and let's hear some of what he said the Turks have a legitimate security concerns they have a terrorist threat to their south a legitimate to security concern Ok there are Kurds there is a terrorist threat to their south though. I think to be honest no not really the Turks made allegations in 2016 that some terrorists who hit Turkish targets inside Turkey came out of. The Syrian Kurdish controlled area but that was a few years ago since then I have seen no serious Turkish allegations of terror attacks coming out of Syria what if we drop that loaded word terrorist and just talk about a political threat to their south it is true is it not that turkey includes ethnic Kurds they have had nationalist aspirations in the past there may be nationalists on the southern shirt certainly are nationalists on the southern side of the border as well in Syria and Turkey just doesn't want Kurds to have too much authority because it threatens the Turkish state I think you have hit the nail exactly on the head this is essentially a political problem Turkey worries that if there is a Kurdish mini state in northeastern Syria that many state will then create political problems among Turkish Kurdish communities on the other side of the border we have heard of the complexities to say the least that this causes for the United States 1st us Kurdish allies are endangered 2nd there is the danger of an opening for ISIS given that the president has gone ahead with this move and moved us troops out given that Turkey has gone ahead with its offensive the question then becomes Kendall's concerns be managed and if so how. The Syrian I felt like I realized the long pause there ambassador might have been your answer but go right on go right on please know what I'm thinking it's a it's an excellent question so he points 1st the Syrian Kurdish fighters and others in the Syrian democratic forces that we have supported they themselves have an interest in ensuring that those thousands of ISIS prisoners remain in detention if not they're going to trickle right back up into areas that the Syrian Kurdish militias expelled them from the 1st place their own communities So that's 1st 2nd when we think about ISIS over the long term it's it's a clinical economic and social set of grievances that's beyond ISIS and Kurdish militias are not really the long term fix meaning that someone else does need to take over that that territory that was not really that stable a situation to begin with precisely in a sense there's already friction between some of the Arab communities and some of these Kurdish militias and so there has to be a transition over time how that is done frankly I see no discussion of that and how American forces say 500 or a 1000 u.s. Special operations forces help that process also is not being discussed do you mean to say there has to be a transition to some kind of unified Syrian government. I think in the long term only reassertion of Syrian government control over eastern Syria provides a durable. Stability a durable security and nobody dislikes the Syrian government more than me but I think we have to be realistic but if the Americans are going to stay there forever American forces are going to stay in eastern Syria as far out as the eye can see 8 it's going to be a source of friction and instability. Robert Ford is the former United States ambassador to Syria in fact the last and most recent u.s. Ambassador to Syria he's now a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute he joined us via Skype Ambassador thanks so much thank you. When President Trump holds a campaign rally today in Minneapolis Minnesota he will be inside the congressional district of a lawmaker he often criticizes it is the district of Democrat Johann Omar N.P.R.'s Asia Roscoe has been looking at the president's Twitter feed where he has criticized Omar among many other people she found the president's attacks on lawmakers are growing more personal especially against people of color President Trump's tweets can set the wheels of government in motion and set the tone for his supporters back in July truck was eagerly attacking Ilhan O'Mara at a rally in Greenville North Carolina only has a history of launching vicious and dicer medic screen in response the crowd chanted finger back. Home I was born in Somalia but is an American citizen the chance were prompted by Trump's tweets a few days earlier using racist language truck tweeted that Omar and 3 other Democrats all women of color known as the squad should go back to the quote totally broken and crime infested places from which they came troubles I always use Twitter as a weapon against his political opponents but these tweets and the dozens that will come in the weeks following against the squad and it gives African-American Congressman Elijah Cummings represented an escalation of the president's attacks these are people that in my opinion hate our country and they are sleepless through this when I call it a larger Cummings has not helped the people who are not happy here then you can leave it be our exam in Trump's tweets about members of Congress to act Tobar 4th since becoming president Trump has tweeted more than 700 times about current lawmakers watch. Hasn't been restrained about insults his negative tweets have increased in volume and the nature of insults have become more extreme says To lot in the case of the squad which includes Omar Yana Presley Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and proceeded to leave choppers tweeted about them collectively nearly 20 times in about 3 months that's more negative tweets than Trump is aimed at presidential candidates Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders among other things he's called the squad a very races group of troublemakers that language speaks to some white Trump supporters who may be worried about their place in America says new Jambi Carter She's a political science professor at Howard University when he says make America great again and points to these women as the sort of embodiment of everything that America isn't it's not black it's not a woman it's not Muslim it's not like Tina these women become perfect vehicles for all of that exaggerated that these white voters feel the only lawmakers with more negative to use than the squad and Cummings are top Democrats House Speaker Nancy Pelosi so in a minority leader Chuck Schumer and House Intelligence Committee chairman Adam Schiff but his tweets about them a more general criticisms about the Democratic Party the president chooses his targets pretty carefully but he doesn't always choose them for the same reason that's Brian at a communications professor at Texas Tech University and co-author of the Twitter presidency he says Trump uses Twitter to discredit politicians he views as a threat and to distract from other matters then there's this other motivation which is trying to define the opposition and it's clear that he takes tremendous pleasure and is particularly vitriolic when it comes to characterizing women and ethnic minorities on Twitter on Twitter Trump says the face of the Democratic Party is the squad Polow. The and Congresswoman Maxine Waters who is African-American he never says white men are the face of the Democratic Party the White House didn't respond to interview requests but Trump supporters argue he's accountable. Piers did not is a prominent African-American conservative backstrap he said is not race or gender that motivates the president if you are worthy opponent meaning you have a large social media following meaning you can attract a lot of people to what every As you're talking about he's going to engage with them because he thinks it's worth the fight Trampas targeted both Cummings who is chair of the House Oversight Committee and shift with a flood of tweets Well while the tweets Agus Shifa focus on his actions as chairman Trump's tweets against Cummings focus on the mostly black district he represents and bought some more at says the rhetoric about Cummins in particular is meant to set him apart as different the president's discussion of Baltimore rat infested is really meant to convey that she's not quite human with an impeachment probe in full swing the president has tweeted about the squad less Cummings hasn't gotten a mention in weeks but Trump hasn't forgotten about these lawmakers he told reporters on Friday that a.l.c. Plus 3 as he likes to call the squad are the real leaders of the Democratic Party ice Roscoe n.p.r. News Washington.

But she didn't realize that vaporing was making her so sick until she ended up in the e.r. Oh I was terrified I had no idea what was happening to me as her oxygen levels plummeted she was put in the i.c.u. And remember struggling to breathe honestly it was the most painful experience of my entire life like I was laying on my bed like. Sobbing because it hurt so bad she says she's feeling much better now not only has she stopped vaporing she can't believe she ever got hooked and she wants to help other people quit too she says of a being is just so out of line with her generation's approach to good living we're really like the generation of the weekend organic food you know mental health days and south care days and stuff like that but we're pumping our bodies full of chemicals without even knowing what it does to us and the outbreak of serious long illnesses has helped to bring this into focus people feel to realize that like you're deeply in danger in yourself by doing this stuff I'm Jon Hamilton for the ping is dangerous and not just for your lungs Francis Leslie of the University of California Irvine says the nicotine invading products can disrupt a developing brain it's unfortunate that a whole generation of teenagers are basically guinea pigs for the effects of nicotine in the brain Leslie says the problem with nicotine is that it mimics a substance we already have in our brains so it can affect learning and memory and brain development Leslie says nicotine's target is cells that have structures on their surface called nicotinic receptors those parts of the brain that are actively maturing during adolescence are being controlled by nicotinic receptors nicotine also acts on brain areas involved in addiction still not clear precisely how that affects an adolescent human but Leslie says in adolescent mice the result is alarming a very brief low dose exposure to nicotine in early adolescence and creases the rewarding properties of other drugs including alcohol cocaine methamphetamine and these are long term changes nicotine itself is addictive because it activates the brain's dopamine system but Dr nee Addie at the Yale School of Medicine wondered whether the flavors had a debating products might also activate this system if both nicotine and for. Savers are acting on the same domain system in the brain is that somehow facilitating and making it more likely that people take products that have both flavors and nicotine to find out Addie and a team of researchers studied rats what we found is that the sweet flavors can make the nicotine more palatable in the oral cavity but also acts in the brain to increase nicotine taking out he says this finding is especially troubling when it comes to teenagers whose brains are extra sensitive to rewards and he says animal research by another Yale scientist suggests that young people who they may be more likely to develop brain disorders like $88.00 d. If there is exposure to nicotine early on that can influence attentional processes later in life so what might help reduce teen vaporing Janet Adrienne McGovern a psychologist at the University of Pennsylvania says a ban on flavors like bubble gum and pink lemonade could make a difference if the 1st the cigarette that you use was flavored then you're more likely to go on and use the cigarette again Adrienne McGovern also thinks fewer teens might vapor if nicotine products were more expensive and harder to buy online I don't think it's that difficult to click the box that you're 18 or your $21.00 and if you have a credit card to get those products but she says it's going to be hard for regulators and scientists to keep up with all the changes in the vapor in world teens who maybe 4 years ago were using predominantly pens are now using jewel and some of the pod monts products that can deliver much higher levels of nicotine to their brains John Hamilton Allison Aubrey n.p.r.

It's Morning Edition from n.p.r. News I'm Steve Inskeep And I'm Rachel Martin with a story about hope risk and unmet expectations the story begins in the summer of 2003 in Kabul Afghanistan it has been almost 2 years since 9112 years since the u.s. Invaded Afghanistan and pushed the Taliban out of power for harboring al Qaeda and they're reporting on how the country is starting to change girls cannot go to school playing music isn't against the law and children are starting to dream big dreams so they want to do more. And President. And then. I know you're going to be the 3 ambitious kids you hear there are should give us a hard done ice Joe and her motte when I meet them back in 2003 they're between the ages of 811 and they're the hosts of a kid's radio program called Good Morning Afghanistan could you. Give though. As. I spent several weeks with these kids and their team that summer I watched them put the show together played jokes on each other I watched them play volleyball and jump rope in the courtyard outside their studios and I listened as they talked to me about the future they saw for their country what do you hope for Afghanistan in the future. And she was that said that people. Tend to get this fact. I go back to Afghanistan many times after that but I never saw a Keiser really OS again and I wondered for a long time what had happened to each of them with all that hope and optimism of those early years after the Taliban what kind of life had they had after some digging through social media I finally tracked down and case. Hi Rachel. How they go I hear your voice after a very long case are you there Good morning Rachel thank you for finding me again. What else do you remember about that time where well. We were very much hopeful for a bright future about our country I was confident with myself go to your school just wherever you want to do do it it's the time I remember that about Actually he was quiet as a boy but so self-assured for his age always had this big devilish grand at that point he'd already been through so much years prior he and his father were imprisoned by the Taliban for 3 months now that the Taliban was gone he felt like life could only get better and it was really good time on those days I was really nerdy thick and I was looking forward for a bright than a good Afghanistan but over the years the optimism would fade the Taliban would keep launching attacks against civilians other insurgent groups moved in including ISIS should go for and kies each found an escape hatch kies was granted asylum in the us he remembers the night before he and his wife and baby boy boarded a plane bound for California it was kind for me when you're going to somewhere to watch a scary movie and you're a little bit excited about. When we landed here at Los Angeles. I see everything people smile each other nobody's worry about the security issues is she good his escape came in the form of education she convinced her family to let her go to college in Istanbul she grew for thrived there she made friends she did well in her classes and when she graduated she didn't want to go back home to Kabul I knew that I have bigger ambitions than and then that so. In order to stay here longer to do my masters I had to convince them again and then yeah I actually did 7 crazy. She gave his brother wanted her to come home immediately and get married she refused and to drive the point home she shaved her head shaved off all of her long dark hair leaving her pretty much bald she showed me photos of her from that time on Facebook she's got makeup on big earrings super hip clothes she had found another version of herself and she wasn't about to let that go. Now she goofed and kies are living in this kind of tension they are away from the bombs they're living in other countries where they can see opportunity in a way they never could before at the same time they feel this pull to help drag Afghanistan out of the current chaos peace talks have been stalled and even if the Taliban and the Afghan government can reach a ceasefire both these young Afghans are worried about what happens if they come back into power the problem is that. Women are not much involved with the and peace negotiations and we are scared to turn back to like 18 years ago and we are scared that we will lose oldies but find it is that we have to they. Are you nervous about the United States leaving Yes yes I'm totally never was I'm feeling a bad dream about the ganas than if they leave us like this if they leave us at this situation I think everything is go back or. Each of them have built their own life outside Afghanistan. Works of the Afghan embassy in Ankara she's also raising her 2 younger sisters who followed her to Turkey kies works as a safety inspector for a construction firm in California where he lives with his wife and son I ask if they can imagine ever going back to Kabul what it would take for them to return and build a life there would you like to raise your son there. Actually know if it's the situation is like this no if the situation is like this I don't want same thing that happened to me I don't want to happen to my son she goof on the other hand still thinks about the dream that seemed so out of reach when she was 9 years old yeah I said I want to be president or you know is Kofi and he was there. Head of you in fact they're here who can and. So yeah I still have this ambition in mind. When they. Would have. Had. The u.s. Invaded Afghanistan 18 years ago this week for 18 years Afghans like. Have clung to an idea of what their country could be but now they are trapped in a grim deja vu peace talks with the Taliban are stalled yet again there is again no clear winner in the recent presidential election on election day the Taliban carried out almost 200 attacks across the country the Afghanistan should google and ice have dreamt up since they were kids still feels very far away.

Silver Medalist in the 10000 meters Steve Prefontaine who I mean Steve you Fontaine and and then another man named Eric Larson those ranks including Prefontaine one of America's most famous runners ranks Holland as one of the best in the nation for his age group. Hans Faustus is directing runners during today's cross-country meet the coaches running at Ashland high school if you look at Oregon history in its it. Streaming strong Prefontaine on down and each day is is in the mix Holland success goes beyond Oregon according to Jack Sheppard he's the Boy's High School editor with track and field news he's been ranking high school track stats for 50 years Sheppard says at the high school level Oregon doesn't necessarily have better runners than any other state but he says Holland is defining himself nationally in the high school scene itself he has already emerged he's one of the top 5 distance runners in the nation but Sheppard says it's hard to make any predictions about high school athletes it's a time when their bodies change by the year so it's hard to tell how far they'll go there are so many Olympians who when you look back we either do not have them at all on our list or their way down at the bottom of the list for Holland it's taken dedication for him and his whole family to get to where he is now here's e.j. Is Dad Neil when we go on vacation we go on vacations where he can run maybe up in the mountains when we go to Flagstaff it for spring break in recent years when it's been smoky for Morgan's wildfires they've had to change that training regimen my dad and I are making trips well over an hour long in 2 to 3 hour round trips just for me to go run for 45 minutes all that training is paying off last month Holland nown still be following in the footsteps of Steve Prefontaine running for the University of organs track and cross country teams he says going to you a vote means more than just representing his home state I could you know go in and be a part of this great tradition and that was definitely something in my mind I was like ah this would be really cool.

From n.p.r. News I'm Steve Inskeep And I'm Rachel Martin do men brought down by the me too movement deserve a 2nd chance several are attempting to make their way back into the public eye and underlying questions about redemption there are questions about rehabilitation can proven sexual harassers change and if so how N.P.R.'s Tovia Smith reports on a burgeoning industry of therapists coaches and counselors trying to help reform them you hear it about sexual harassers all the time guys like that'll never change that may be true for the out an outside towpaths and those with other serious disorders but experts say most sexual harassers are not in that bucket they're apples and oranges forensic psychiatrist Barbara's Yvan expert on victims and perpetrators of sexual misconduct says most are opportunistic offenders are self delusional but they're not beyond help those aren't individuals who are sort of hard wired to sexually assault and those are the people that have the most potential for learning and not doing it again Ziv who will testify against former film producer Harvey Weinstein at his upcoming rape trial says the most egregious offenders who make headlines are too often conflated with the rest the me too movement has to become more sophisticated and we should 2 years out be able to distinguish between these back it but even my faith in that there is a distinction can be perceived as letting men off the hook but treatments if says is not a repudiation of justice as University of Toronto psychologist James Canter says it's not just about redemption for offenders it's about prevention for every moment justice needs to be had but so long as we keep talking about me need to just gather up the evil dismiss them and ignore them we're not going to either rehabilitate these people or prevent more of these cases from the future what I had down ones something that I would buried through decades this man whose. Been soul searching about his own sexual misconduct asked that his name not be used for fear the backlash will hurt his family he says allegations of sexual misconduct making headlines were a wake up call that finally moved him to voluntarily face what he did that was everything from stealing a kiss at the office to date raping a woman he barely knew decades ago I was shocked by the realization that I've been able to go through my life powered by privilege without owning up to this and there are probably a lot of other guys who have done those things and if we want to prevent and change that culture our actions need to come out in the light of day and be the basis for conversation he has been working through counseling and through what's called by carious restored of justice where he shows up as a stand in for victims who can't meet with their own perpetrators He starts by owning what he did that would be to say. I took your body for my pleasure and my needs I knew that you couldn't stop me from doing it he acknowledges the damage he caused you may have had depression you may have I may have caused a lifetime of difficulty having relationships and he apologizes it's not your fault and it's not something that was anything other than my bushiness my belief that I could have whatever I want and I'm very sure of that new group it's cathartic for him and healing for survivors who were there I don't even know how to describe it in words but it was just this moment of being heard by someone who caused sexual harm it is a weight that you no longer have to carry Alyssa Ackermann a criminal a just now leads restorative justice circles for others convinced to can teach empathy and motivate change like nothing else it's no coincidence that only while listening to survivors describe their pain to the man remember for the 1st time in decades his victim's name and the middle of the session he just blurted it out it came back to him yeah I was pretty shaken by it.

You just go down a rabbit hole until you can figure out what it is that's at the core correcting that she says often means addressing anything from feelings of inadequacy to outmoded views of gender roles it's why another approach gaining interest focuses on toxic masculinity a big part of that is peeling off the armor and bringing these guys into a state of being utterly raw Joshua Hathaway leads men's retreats through a group called the Brotherhood community it's learning how to wield our our power in a more responsible way it's dismantling our massage any it's mental and a lot of these prejudices that dehumanizing other people and that's messy work counsellors say a growing number of men are buying in but others worry about softer gentler rehabilitative approaches gaining favor over punitive ones quite frankly I think you know there should be a fear of social stigma a fear of social consequence attached to boorish and sexually improper behavior Max Eden is with the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research My concern is that we're not only letting men up the hook with this pressure creating reward structure for behaving badly and going through what might not be a very sincere redemption process proponents insist it's hard to fake your way through such intense personal encounters and they say it's not meant to replace punishment but they too concede there's no guarantee that it works psychiatry just Barbra's it recalls working with one executive who due to flee listened for hours as she explained why it was wrong to touch a female colleague flirt with her or make comments about her looks months later she saw him again the 1st thing he said to me when I walked into the office is don't you look pretty you know all of the time that I had spent with him and he was oblivious unfortunately Ziv says we'll only know for sure if someone's really changed and ready for a 2nd chance after they've had their 2nd chance and didn't blow it Tovia Smith n.p.r.
