were observing a holy day so none of the employees were yaround. giving the balkan restaurant a shot. at that point i was determined for answers and hungry, too, so we figured why not just ask anyone that was in my way. did anybody know what you were talking about? where macedonia is, the language of macedonia? um, i think that i enlightened them a little pit once i got going. you know, there wasn t anything really surprising about what they were saying. but, you seem to know somewhat of what was going on. if those that didn t, i, you know, told them and they had an opinion after that. boy, you arer a beacon of truth in aha dark city. thanks a lot for joining us. thank you. it took awhile, but we finally tracked down a representative from macedonia, president of united macedonian
wrong of it. we understand in all wars and all wars teach us this, that there can be more than one truth operating at the same time. and ken, as we ve mentioned t comes out in a couple of months on pbs, but you re sharing a little preview of the film with us, so let s watch a moment of it. i fear that there s a kind of national amnesia about vietnam that we ve erased the horror of the kinds of mistakes that were made. i think this film, this point in history might be a terrific antidote to that. to see these kids who had the least to gain, there wasn t anything to look forward to. they weren t going to be rewarded for their service in vietnam, and yet their infinite patience, their loyalty to each other, their courage under fire was just phenomenal. and you would ask yourself, how
hour. commerce secretary wilbur ross praising the lack of protests in saudi arabia during president trump s visit over the weekend. the other thing that was fascinating to me, there was not a single hint of a protester anywhere there during the whole time we were there. there was certainly no sign of it. there was not a single effort at any incursion. there wasn t anything. the mood was a genuinely good moo mood. yeah. bianna, there was also no beheadings for people who did protest. why was it so placid and calm? wilbur should just stick to commerce because most saudis are not suicidal. and protests andoming out with placards is punishable in saudi
leader, he has the opportunity to change the environment, to change the dynamic. and he s not alone. president bush thought he was in the position to charm vladimir putin. it didn t happen the way he had hoped. it sounds as if there wasn t anything called history that happened before he got to office before this political conflict but he s putting his capital out there and kristen, he s said that jared kushner will play the role of kind of fronting for the white house. obviously you had rex tillerson there as well. oftentimes there are mid-east envoys, george mitchell, famously, for years and years and years. yeah. there are usually people who have more experience than jared kushner has. that doesn t mean he can t do a good job. this isn t an area where he has a ton of experience. the thing about donald trump that is just interesting is that normally you sort of, you know, underpromise and overdeliver sort of the key to success and
he s likely to fall into some of the same giant areas of quicksand that so many others have in most recent times, look who he is sitting with. he s sitting with abbas who is the best thing that both israel and the president have going now in terms of a negotiating partner. but talk to anybody who knows anything about the palestinian authority and they ll tell you, he doesn t have much juice. so let s just say he gets them to the table. to what end? you know, maybe he can be a strong leader that he hasn t been when using and having other partners both in israel and in the white house in the past but it s hard to imagine that things are going to suddenly change on a dime within the palestinian authority just because president it s also hard to believe that there s even conditions to begin a peace process and it s actually early in the administration to try that. you see a lot of presidents get into it later in their second term to at least try to have some in print and it s important
