Dictatorship that is now, as raul castro has said a couple days ago, theyre going to stay communist, theyre going to continue their repression, their use of torture, the coastro brothers should be held for crimes against humanity for the crimes of torture. anyone who has ever read the books including the book "against all hope" knows s tha the mistreatment, the soviet union has done, north korea and were extending a hand of friendship. >> why? >> and also beguiling in terms of the timing.

White house. angela merkel has a good relationship with vladimir putin. germany being a client state when it comes to energy needs for its country, directly from russia. does she emerge as the person to be considered the most honest broker in all of this? >> im not sure were talking about brokering. were talking about putting more pressure on russia. much better help for ukraine. more bolstering of nato. the real question, putin for the first time, if he faces a much more robust and antagonistic...

We have satellites, not just infrared satellites. but also optical satellites that have resolution down to and below one foot resolution down on the ground. its interesting that the vice president said, well, it was taken down by a missile. how did we know that? we knew that because we actually saw it from satellite. if we saw it from the satellite, we can also tell from where it was shot. if it was shot from the russian side of the border, unequivocally a russian shot. if it was from the ukrain...

Going afraid of rodan. what happens if isis wins? retired four star general jack keane. then what, general? >> well, the fact of the matter is, its certainly understandable. isis has a major sanctuary in syria. obviously they have another one now in iraq. the client state of iran is syria. they certainly dont want the assad regime to be threatened by this organization. however, the iraqi regime is clearly being threatened by it. so i believe that either theyre approving or theyre directing you k...

The kyrgyzstan would become a sunni, and the shia state would become the iranian client state. >> so are you saying if maliki would leave that youd have the same problem? that there isnt anybody there who could -- because, you know, the administration seems to think that maliki, its his problem because he has been unable to perform the coalition. >> let me ask general zinni if iraq broke up between the former yugoslavia, what if there was an independent kyrgyzstan in the north and a shiite-led c...

Nuclear program. were playing into their game by trying to bring other issues to the table with them. we absolutely have to be able to say to the iranians, stop, get out and if you dont, were going to stop -- negotiate on the nuclear issue, increase sanctions. >> seems like the opposite is happening. the top general, he allegedly is in baghdad right now helping direct that. theyre not getting out. theyre pouring more in because they apparently want to have iraq as a client state. >> most of our ...

Real mistake here by opening a full second front against the combined al malaki and iranian forces. you know, assad in syria has had the momentum against the opposition as a whole and now in effect like hitler invading russia and creating a second front during world war ii i think they have made a mistake here, at least if as i expect iran will do whatever it takes for them to keep the al maliki regime in power. >> and hopefully not become a client state of tehran. ambassador john bolton, as alw...

People in front of tribunals permanently or execute them shows how broken our government is. >> well, the president wants to take a few days and look at all the option, yet iran is reportedly sending about 2,000 troops, although the leaders there are denying there are troops on the ground there, to help out the maliki government. can the u.s. afford to wait much longer and what do you think about the surprising irony of a possible alliance between iran and the u.s. fighting for a common interest...

Our way of life and these people want to kill us. and we have to clearly understand what this threat is all about. bill: i want to show our viewers a map. i know you know this all too well from syria in damascus. there is a city called aleppo. if you start in the northwest corner of syria down through mosul that fell wednesday and tikrit that fell the following day and you have fallujah and baghdad and you fill that in where the terrorists, the isis is in control, thats an enormous piece of terr...

They have done much to prop up syria and help assad hold on to power. they will pull out all the stops to keep the shiia part of iraq in iraqi hand. and that means well pour in their quds force. general saohany. and i think that portends ill for the stability of the middle east to have iraq become a client state of iran. the fact of the matter is that iran will not do much about isis holding territory and land in syria obviously and also in iraq. they will pretty much leave that alone. they will...
