Passions like this dance. i went into the portal and spoke with several iranians about they are lives and their country and how they see the united states. >> we are not like bad people. its not leak all these stereotypes, youre hearing about although time or what they say on the press and on the news. its totally different. normal life. the actual life here is totally different. >> perhaps presidents obama and rohani should meet this way. call it a diplomatic dance. go to cnn.com/gps for more. ...

In the report, as you describe them, those were not authorized by the justice department. they were not supposed to be done and those people who did those are at risk legally because they were acting outside their orders. >> jane harman, how does this strike you? >> i strongly disagree. i get the argument that context matters. i was there. i was walking toward the dome of the capitol which is where the intelligence committee rooms were located on 9/11. it was the intended target of the fourth ai...

Have been mentioned mercifully i was not subjected to but there were others that i was subjected to. for example, i was tied with my hands behind my back to my legs. i was punched and kicked. i had the agents showing me pictures of my children with the sound of a woman screaming next door that i was led to believe was my wife and then forced to sign confessions as a result of this. so its unsurprising completely since my return from guantanamo ive been documenting numerous cases in the u.k. and ...

I am trying to recover really because i equated the ayatollah and the dahl looy llama and his -- and the dalai lama. >> the dalai lama will weigh in next. >> i think the feinstein report, if i may call it that, thedemocratic staff report that took place did not really produce much. and i dont think the cia gives a damn what they got to say. and dick cheney is on the air waves defending america and good for him. i think he will settle it all. >> i dont know if that is dick cheney. that can be one...

This was worse. its a lie aimed at denigrating network and our intelligence services. and i noticed something about the congress doing that kind of thing. congressman dave mccurty, dick cheney was then a member of that committee, so was henry hyde. he told me, dave mccurty, if you dont air drop supplies to the nicaragua indians and give them ammunition quickly, i will out you. i ran across the street and asked the national security adviser what i should do, he says you know the answer. start dro...
