policy assistant to president nixon has information on this. london is mediating these indirect secret talks according to the jerusalem press which cites a kuwaiti newspaper. how reliable is this? given the context that the reports we got in light of the new iranian deal that secret talks between the united states and iran have been going on at least since march, it may, in fact, be happening through the british channels of the united states talking to this terrorist organization. why do people care that we should be talking indirectly to hezbollah. here s why it matters. hezbollah is one of the world s foremost terrorist organizations. they have targeted the united states and american interests over several decades. remember hezbollah targeted the u.s. embassy in april of 1983 killing 17 americans, a couple of months later in october of 1983 bombed our marine bar racks in beirut killing servicemen. they continue to target the

these many decades between the ronald reagan who actually was president and the ronald reagan that they think they re following. the bombing of the marine bar racks during reagan and he just retreated. ari, 13 days is going to go so fast. where do you think the president needs to be going in message terms, given all the issues that we see in front of us, from this latest outburst from the indiana senator, should that steer him towards women s issues? i think it s women s issues but i think it s mobilizing people, but also about jobs and justice. also about the idea that if you take a step back and look at all this stuff, whether it s the medical rights, it s personal rights, it s your right to unemployment insurance, a social safety net, medicare, social security, all these things if you take a step back, are whether there s somebody looking out for you when things are
