and hezbollah, i believe assad read that as america is pulling out. we have a problem on the eve of the first gulf war. we wouldn t impose invasion of kuwait. korean war started. you have to get the words right. bill: wall street journal on screen, mr. trump quoting, inherited a mess in syria, he ll need a better strategy than mr. obama s default of moral denones yags. we know obama screwed it up. the red line, it was desas rus.
parts they may not have wanted me to see. but it was a pleasant evening meal with the other permanent members of the security council at the invitation of the russian ambassador, who was at that point working very closely with us to deal with iraq s invasion of kuwait. so i didn t suspect that there was much there, but one takes advantage of obviously all the opportunities that are available to develop information on what the other side is doing. so i can t dismiss it. let s just wait and see what comes out here at the moment, i don t believe everything is out. but if everything is out, then maybe there should be more to come, and we haven t seen it yet, and questions have arisen as to whether in fact this is really a serious case of major espionage at the two so-called recreational sites or not. i don t have an answer to that at this stage. but it is fascinating and consequential stuff. ambassador, it s always good to see you, sir. thank you so much.
our wishes we ll cut the money off. we have done that. i remember well in 1991 when the security council authorized the use of force against saddam hussein s invasion of kuwait. yemen voted no on that resolution. jim baker secretary of state in the u.s. chair at the counsel turned to us sitting behind him saying that s the most expensive vote yemen has ever cast and we substantially eliminated their foreign aid budget. there are a lot of steps we can take here and i hope the in-coming trump administration looking at all of them. i think it was 14-0, a unanimous vote by the council. i guess egypt represents the arab league. who would be the most affected if we pull back or eliminate foreign aid to these countries? that s one option. i m not necessarily saying we should do it in every case. there are some of the countries where we have no effective leverage now, like vensz wezuel.

up your skills and the army s free ammunition. the military for me were some of the best years of my life. i think that mcveigh found success really for probably the first time in his life in the army. i think mcveigh was looking for some kind of family that would make him happy. as you look back at where i come from, it s a military background, military mindset, and i want to make clear that the military didn t brainwash me into thinking this way. the truth is that the military helped introduce me to the cruelty of the real world and the way things work. in november of 1990 in response to saddam hussein s invasion of kuwait, timothy mcveigh and his fort riley unit are shipped out to the persian gulf with the u.s. army s first infantry division. the gulf war for tim was sort of the culmination of his young military career. the way that that mission was
