The Islamic State or the isil state in syria and iraq and the very top of his kurdish entity in the north. How that function . It will function well. They will be at odds with each other. However another alternative will work to find a way to unify the countrys and then how golf course is to write to retake in the territory from the isil. Thats the best way, but its in trouble right now. You can see out the iraqi ambassadors comment that 4 10 eastern in todays washington journal site that with jeffrey anytime on her website that is cspan. Org.

So when you come suddenly to america and youre confronted that youre equal, its almost like, oh, my god, im equal . How do i deal with that . Really, it took me a while for me to really feel equal. Its not easy when youre living in a prison. Its not easy to see the freedom right away. And thats why im speaking, because i love this country. Im just very grateful for this country. It gave me my freedom. [applause] so ever since after 9 11 happened, a lot of americans, remember, were saying, where are the voices of the middle eastern people to speak against jihad and to stand

Russia warned there would be grave consequences with the agreement. Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko said it may be the most important day for his country since the breakup of the soviet union. The agreements will free up trade with the European Union offering greater access to the huge European Market and means closer cooperation in energy and foreign policy.

Working on the brain initiative, a new effort which isugoing to be focused between nih and nsf and darpa and a number of private industries and philanthropies trying to make sure these kind of interdisciplinary efforts that jim was talking about are tapped into in every way.
