Equipment used to make those chemical weapons. It comes a day before the deadline approved last month. More istanbul. The ocw said this was the most Challenging Mission ever undertaken by the organization. Its inspectors went to 21 sites. The remaining two were not verified by the inspectors because of safety and security concerns. What they did however was remove some of those items at the sites to be verified and inspected at another location by ocw inspectors. Now, syria has met two key deadlines, but the most important one is yet to come, and this involves the destruction of estimated 1,000 metric tons of chemical weapons stockpile. The ocw needs to prav syrias plan for destruction f witnesses about the u. S. Strategy in syria. Ambassador robert ford has testified before the Foreign Relations committee talking about how best to support the syrian opposition, as an alternative to assad. The conflict will continue to drag on. The conflict in syria now is a grinding war of attrition. The regime is suffering serious manpower shortages. For that reach, it has brought in foreign fighters from hezbollah, and from iran and iraq. And meanwhile, the modern opposition that we support is fight on two fronts, both against a regime and against mill tant extremists directly linked to al qaeda in iraq. They say that the u. S. Is mobilizing its International Partners to give humanitarian aid and other stens to the Syrian People city. New revelations about spying. And british counterparts say theyre worried after he said they joined the nsa to spy on citizens. To connect google and yahoo and their centers around the world. What kind of backlash is the british counterpart worried about in the latest reports . Well, theyre worried primarily that there may be ill legality involved and breached privacy laws in europe. Memos in which they said, if this gets out, were going to shake public confidence, and there may be issues in regards to the legality of what theyre doing. Of course, gchq is a huge operation. They work handinhand with the nsa. And theyre not bound by american laws nor british laws. And they played off of one other in terms of international monitoring. And its also interesting to note here in europe that there is already a court case being put to the european human rights about this issue whether the intelligence agencies have broken the law. 1. 5 million cameras located across london and every one is being watched all the time. Are they concerned that they might not be able to withstand the type of scrutiny that the nsa has been dealing with in america . Well, the gchq has got the support of the government. David cameron in recent days has been very outspoken be both in condemnation of the leaks, but also through the intelligence community, only through the intelligence gathering. And in fact, the nsa that the attacks have been thwarted and peoples safety has been secured. So the government is fully back being gchq. But there is very serious coming on ut from the public opinion, very concerned about what these intelligence organizations, not just the nsa but in britain, monitoring all of the phonecalls. Thank you very much. And we should point out that aljazeera has exclusively obtained secret nsa documents how they used the september 11th attacks to defend the policies. They are for officials to use, and it appears that they did just that. There has not been they didnt say they were going to just forgive this. Live from washington, and randall, whats happening there right now . Around the world, representatives of state and local governments, its a new initiative launched by the u. S. Department of commerce to try to attract more Foreign Investments in the u. S. And states and regions. And its being coordinated by the federal government. Something that nations around the world have been doing a long time. But until now, most of the efforts to bring Foreign Investment into the u. S. Has been handled on a state to state basis. President obama, for two years, has been working on a plan to get more coordination. Go ahead. I was going to say on that point, clearly, the white house prefers to talk about this rather than the problems with the web seat. And some sceptics are going to say why is he focusing on jobs now . Is it his attempt to wag the dog or change the topics in well, del, im sure that his critics would say that this has been in the planning for two years. You cant just go into three or four months, and get people who run walmart, but what the Business Leaders are talking about. The u. S. Really needs to focus on its instruct. Therits strength. There has been a lot of talk of whats wrong with the economy. Spending 250 million in ten american universities to rebuild their chemistry departments. Theyre pointing out that there are 600,000 jobs going wanting right now in the country, jobs in technology and engineering and math, but they cant find people in america who can do them, so there needs to be more emphasis on getting americans ready for the jobs that are here to be had right now. Randall, live in washington, and forgive me for the interruption. Tomorrow could be a tough day for more than 23 million american households. Those households rely on supplemental food aid, or what we refer to as food stamps, and theyre going to see their aid cut. Tom akerman went to the fourth county in the u. S. To talk about what could follow reporter for two hours each week, this food charity is the busiest place in kentucky. The lowest of anywhere in the u. S. , and the food bank is especially crowded to the end of each month, as government aid money runs low. Single mother, rose pryor, works 30 hours a week at a private charity to earn her benefits under the supplemental nutrition aid program. Known as food stamps its like assistance until i can get back to work and get a job and be financially independent again. Rose is among the record 48 million americans who shop for groceries by presenting an electronic benefits card. But shell are to stretch it further when on average, it drops 1. 40 per meal. Thats less than a cup of coffee at starbucks. President obamas agenda of higher taxes on the rich and extended benefits for the needy would have a lot of appeal. Once staunchly democratic, they gave mitt romney 70 of its vote last year. It has been voting for republicans since 1996. They include freida turner, a democrat who runs her own chart. And packs free lunches for hundreds of local school kids. She said the hunger here is genuine, but its made worse by generations of reliance on welfare payments im talking about 45 of the people that dont work with their families. We have a lot of parents on drugs. They get their ssi payments, and food stamps, and cash it in at the store. But cutting the food starches would hurt the truly needy, including seniors. Some people think that everybody that draws food stamps are trying to live off the system, and they dont think about people like in my case that have to. The u. S. House of representatives has voted to cut billions in food stamps. And among those voting yes, most of americas congressmen who represent the hungriest. Well be looking at the impact that cuts in food stamps will have on the overall economy. With ali belshi . Cory booker today on capitol hill. Hes going to beer officially sworn in as a u. S. Senator.

Thats the thought, to delay or perhaps deter young people from picking up the habit. Patient bloomberg said that he will sign the bill. He said under bloomberg, new york has it taken a hard line against tobacco, banning smoking in restaurants and bars and public beaches, and now the attention turns to young people. If we can prevent them from starting until 21, it could make a huge difference in our overall smoking rates still not everyone is convinced if somebody is going to smoke, theyre going to smoke, no matter what. I mean drinking age is 21, and that doesnt stop people from drinking the 21 age will take affect 180 days after mayor bloomberg signs the bill into law.
