Remembering, we wasted an entire week looking thousands of miles from where they are looking now because the malaysian military didnt release the radar track that apparently is of this malaysian airline flight because they didnt want to give up propie tear information about their radar capabilities. they lied. so thanks to the misconception of the malaysian government, we wasted a weeks time. >> more on this throughout the morning. we have a couple extras coming on to figure out what we are up a...

Nations involved, a lot of them dont like each other. they dont want to know each other -- or dont want each other to know their radar capabilities. how do we help them help us know whats going on? >> well, thats the key point. i think up front without casting aspersions, the malaysians didnt embrace what was out there and what could have assisted initially. you know, our embassy has an fbi presence. our embassy -- all embassies have an intelligence presence. so immediately had the malaysians em...
