take place but obviously the saudis are nervous because whatever happens in that negotiation can affect saudi national security how they perceive it. i mean, we have areas of deep cooperation. we re all concerned about developments in syria and the emergence of extremists there. by the same token, we have areas of disagreement. you just were mentioning the protests in saudi arabia over women driving. i mean, that human relations element is a concern for the united states. and how saudi arabia evolves over time. i do think that notwithstanding signals that there s angst in this relationship, there are also very, very deep reasons why international cooperation will continue. hey, one more question here. this is a big one. this new report from the institute for science and international security which says iran has enough uranium for a nuclear bomb to make one in one month, israelis are saying look, further proof we need to take preventive military action now. how do you see the white h
it s about control. we are controlling. reporter: women like this aren t just emboldened lately, they are more driven than ever to change their society. even though they still aren t allowed to drive in their country. there s nothing wrong with women driving. reporter: a simple statement the world over, but a rallying cry in saudi arabia. the last country on earth where females are prohibited from getting behind the wheel. it s why this journalist moved to lebanon. this morning, she takes us along as she drops her son off at school. she could be arrested for this. a new movement, the october 26th driving campaign aims to change that urging women to defie the driving ban. it s supported by a growing number of female and male voices. there is a group of
