Would not see an indictment. Mike, stay with me. I do want to bring our reporter on the ground. They are back in ferguson. Tolous, it is my understanding you may have heard gunshots. Yes, we did hear a loud popping sound. Its in dozens of people running down the road. Not sure what exactly it was. Seems like people have calmed down since returning. Police officers, from what i can see, are Still Holding their place in their riot gear. Going back to mike, First Assistant to the st. Louis county sheriff, let me ask you about the timing of this. Is there a reason why the 8 00ng was chosen after p. M. Local time to announce this verdict, knowing it would make so many people very upset . I am the First Assistant to the sheriff of the city of st. Louis, so we have a different judicial circuit. A different prosecutor in the city itself that we do and the surrounding county. Im not privy to whatever deliberations took place. As my understanding, the grand jury only finally concluded their deliberations today. Is a be about the earliest you can release their decision on the matter because it did not exist before today. Peter coy from business week joining me on set. He has done a lot of reporting obvious oracle tension and razor luncheon reporting on the historical tension. You and i are looking at the same camera shot. On one hand, we see the prosecuting attorney, a light touch a little at courtroom, thinking about a series of events that have been constructed and reported on. Meanwhile, we have is of a camera shot of people in the dark, confused and certainly angry. Seven leigh, some runoff suddenly, some runoff. There is a sense of, what is happening . Knownly do we not really the story, they do not know the story. They do not know what will happen over the next few hours. I think there is a larger lesson to be drawn here, which is that there is a sense that theres no thattment created an anger has no outlet. Is wrong,violence destruction of property is wrong. What do you do . Even as a look at the camera shots, what is happening there . What is going on. Happen. Now whatll the president will be speaking momentarily. I would to bring in correspondent peter cook. I think youll hear a president that will urge calm in the community. The fact that he hasnt stayed up and is making this statement on camera suggests the seriousness of the white house taking this will stop a concern they have that the situation could get worse. I think youll hear a president that will choose his words carefully, athey has an as he has in the past. This is an important moment for this person. You got it was necessary for him to come out and speak on camera there has been criticism that he has not been involved enough and this case. I am getting a flood of responses from members of congress, including some from the community directly involved. Some members of the Congressional Black Caucus expressing their concern of this case, ahead of them calling this a miscarriage of justice. They are looking to the federal department to wraps, two, this familye justice. They hope that investigation will reach a different conclusion. They think this is not the right decision. Citizenfou part of the part of the question is, it you can indict a ham sandwich, why can you not indict officer wilson . Why was this so much of a challenge. I dont think the prosecuting attorney what wasnt to the president lets listen to the president. It has now come back, either way, it will be a subject of intense disagreement, not only in ferguson but across america. I want to suggest how we might move forward. First and foremost, we are a nation built on the rule of law. We need to accept that this decision was the grand jurys to make. Agreeare americans who with it and there are americans who are deeply disappointed, even angry. It is an understandable reaction. But i join michaels parents and asking anyone who protests this decision to do so peacefully. Michaels fathers words. Hurting others or destroying property is not the answer. No matter what the grand jury decides, i do not want my sons death to be in vain. I want it to lead to incredible , changepositive change that makes the st. Louis region better for everyone. Haveel browns parents lost more than anyone. We should be honoring their wishes. I also appeal to the Law Enforcement officials in ferguson to show care and restraint and monitoring people protest people protest. Understand our Police Officers put their lives on the line for us every single day. They have a tough job to do to maintain Public Safety and hold accountable those who break the law. Thehey do their jobs in coming days, they need to work with the community him and not , to distinguish the handful of people who may use the grand jurys decision as annex use or violence as an excuse for violence. Finally, we need to recognize that the situation in ferguson speaks to broader challenges that we still face as a nation. Many parts, in too of this country, a deep distrust exists between lawenforcement and communities of color. Some of this is a result of the legacy of Racial Discrimination in this country. Tragic, because no one needs good policing more than poor communities with higher crime rates. The good news is, we know there are things we can do to help. I have instructed attorney general holder to work across the country to help bid build better relations between amenities and Law Enforcements. We know that makes a difference. It means working to train officials so that lawenforcement conducts itself in a way that is fair to everyone. It means enlisting the community actively. There are good people on all sides of this debate, as well as both the public and democratic parties that their interest is not in only lifting up best , because we know there are communities who have been able to deal with this in an effective way. We are also interested in working with this administration and local and state officials to start tackling muchneeded criminal justice reform. So, those should be the lessons we draw from these tragic events. We need to recognize that this is not just an issue for ferguson, this is an issue for america. We have made enormous progress in Race Relations over the course of the past several decades. I have would just that in my own and, to deny that progress is to deny americas capacity for change. Though what is also true is that ande are still problems committees of color are not just making these problems up. Separating that from this particular decision, there are issues in which the law too often feels as if it is being applied and discriminatory fashion. I do not think that is the norm. I do not think that is true for the majority of committees or the vast majority of Law Enforcement officials. These are real issues. We have to lift them up and not stamp themr try to down. We need to figure out how to make more progress. That can be done. That will not be done by throwing bottles. It will not be done by throwing smashing car windows, by using this as an excuse to vandalize property and it certainly will not be done by hurting anybody. Ferguson, there are ways of channeling your concerns constructively and there are ways of channeling your concerns distractedly. Michael browns parents understand what it means to be constructive. Vasts majority the majority of Peaceful Protesters understand it as well. Those of you who are watching there isnderstand that never an excuse for violence, particularly when there are a lot of people out there who are willing to work on these issues. Interested iny focusing on the violence and just want the problem to go away need to recognize that we do have work to do here. To cover itt try up. The angere do that, may momentarily subside but over america builds up and is not everything it could be. If we focusident our attention on the problem and look at what has happened, then we can make august not just in in committees around the country. And see howe a look things are going. Air colder has been there. We have a whole team from the justice department. The vast majority of the committee has been working very hard to try to make sure this becomes an opportunity for us to seize the moment. Entering this into a positive. Ituation we have to make sure we can on is positive activities taking place as a do on a. Andful of folks i think it will be very important and it think the media will have a response ability as well to make sure that we focus parents androwns the clergy and the Community Leaders and the civil rights leaders and activists and lovers the officials who have been working very hard to try to find that it, longterm solutions to this issue. There is inevitably going to be some negative reaction and it will make for good tv. What we want to do is make sure that we are also focusing on those who can offer a kind of Real Progress that we know is possible. We had vast majority of people in ferguson and around the country. I want to be partners with those folks and we need to lift up that kind of constructive dialogue taking place. Listening to the president. A nation whowe are is build on the rule of law so anita except the decision and anyone who protests this decision to do so peacefully. The president again, urging protesters to protest peacefully and stressing the importance of the legal system. However, as the president was saying all of that, we have been looking at video coming to us live from ferguson in which we have seen protesters shaking a car and then police theyre kidding that car police barricading that car in tracing the protesters away to keep the out of harms way. I want to go back to our reporter on the ground in ferguson. Earlier, he said he may have heard what could have been gunshots. In you seeing an increase the challenges there on the ground and an increase and perhaps, violence . It is starting to look a lot like it did in august. ,e have able in the streets some windows have been smashed out. Police have been telling people to get out of the road. We did see some flare shot off, as you mentioned. Not sure what kind of smoke and was edited send hundreds of people running in the other direction and it is a bit of a standoff between protest groups and police. The police are stumbled and right gear. They had not moved into the crowd yet but there are waiting. Police say protesters were throwing things at them and that is what caused them to respond and tell people to get out of the street. Still with us. First assistant to the st. Louis watching thewho is live feed of all of this come in. Mike, what is her reaction to the increasing violence were seeing now. I do not think this is what the family has called for. It certainly was not what the prosecutor or president has called for. It is not totally hard to believe that it happened. I would like to make one observation that is it has been theed this evening that grand jury will indict a ham sandwich if a prosecutor tells him to. I think it should be noted that that was a said by defense attorney a long time ago was time to defend a client who is indicted by grand jury. These people gave up three months of their lives to study all of this for the sum of 18 a day. I think we have to respect the fact that they tried to reach the right decision and try to base it on the rule of law rather than a mob mentality. I think of that message gets out, some of the anger in the community might be dissipated somewhat when they realize that people did objectively look at these facts and tried to reach a fair and legal conclusion. What do you anticipate happening over the next several hours as we go into the night and as authorities try to calm the protesters . I dont know. We fear that things will flare up. Obviously, i do not know what the future will hold. We have to be prepared and respond appropriately. We are looking at what seems to be a standoff with protesters on one side and a Police Barricade on the other. You can see the Police Vehicles there. Earlier, we saw live pictures of protesters tostling a car. It seemed to have been a police car. Away. Barricaded that car livee has been roprting see ferguson and said we an increase in vandalism. It is in some ways resembling what we saw in august. Heard the president say we have a real issue that goes beyond what we ferguson and that is a symptomatically of a much bigger problem of the nation needs to address. Listening, it hough thought he must have been listening to our conversation here earlier. I think it is important, tomorrow, after we share in the grief and the sorrow with the family, wey brown thosto start, particularly communitythe legal we have to start working to look at real change. That is what the president called for. Other organizations have some systemic recommendations. Certainike making Proper Police training be in place, ending racial profiling. Center has a proposal in place when you look at how Law Enforcement is funded. The ways in which funding is spent by local Law Enforcement is spent in a way to decrease racial disparities. Refrom. Ll result in it is time to have a much bigger conversation. I wanted a quality guests for being here on the night when the grand jury chose not to indict there and wilson in the killing of michael brown. Stay with bloomberg tv all day tomorrow. Will continue to have coverage on this story for you. Thank you for joining us. Stay with bloomberg tv all day tomorrow. We will continue to have coverage on this all day tomorrow. I am pleased to have lawrence right back at this table, welcome. It is good to be back. What makes it such a diplomatic triumph . There are very few instances in history. Andundersecretary went down said, has this ever happened before . He his story and said yes, teddy roosevelt. In russians and the japanese the first war of the century. They negotiated peace. He was the First American to win a nobel peace prize. Throughout history, there are very few instances where peace negotiated successfully. This was not negotiating an end to a war. It was an interesting negotiation that ended war two parties that had been at war five times in the preceding centuries. It was a hard talk, and people do not realize what a close call it was because the israelis were being asked to surrenders sinai, which was heir strategic buffer. Forces. , for him to go to brokeras he did and to peas with israel was an extraordinary step for both of these men. Campving said that for david, the thing almost collapsed before jimmy carter. Carter loved so. Carter loved saddat. He thought he could take these two men and get them away from the press, and they would like each other and find their way to peace. By the end of the second day, carter had to physically separate them. He had to block them from trying to leave the camp david. It was not until the fifth day until he realized he would have to do something he did not want to do. To forward an american plan. When he did that, it was no longer about just peace between israel and egypt, it had to do with their relationship to the united states. Saddat threatened to leave, carter said he would sever relations. It was a real come to jesus moment. On a couple occasions, said that he was ready to leave. Drawr had a speech writer up a speech in which carter was going to ask the israeli people to vote down their own that government. What is in the end none of that worked and they were going to close up shop. See hen carter went to begin. Ted asked carter for a hadletter about saddat asked carter for a letter. There are lots of such letters in the accords. Got it in the afternoon. Networks had already been alerted. They were setting up dress in the white house. Carter said he could not betray saddat. So begin called it off. Carter went back to his cabin as do press to as hed ever been in his life, and it happened that to there was a photograph of the three men sitting on their porch in the early days of the negotiation and carter had had copies printed up for grandchildren. He had thoughtfully called to get names of those grandchildren. Instead of writing, best wishes, jimmy carter. I wrote his name and i signed it. I took it over to begins cabin and he was ready to go to washington in defeat. He looked and said, thank you, mr. President. He was angry with me. He turned around and looked at the first photograph and he called out the name of his grandchild. Then he looked at the second one and his lips began to quiver and tears ran down his cheeks. And i shed tears also. Finally, he looked around and said, why dont we try one more time . Then he went back to his cabin and told sadat the signing was off. Just then, the phone rang and he said he would sign. Wow. And did begin say why he did it . , carter said that he would amend the language of the side letter. The only change that he made originally, he quoted the u. N. Ambassador owing back to arthur goldberg, spelling out that this is american policy. The one change you made was that american policy is as it has been stated by the american ambassador. There was no substantive change, it was just cover for begin to accept it. Tell me about each of these guys who were there. Anwar sasat sadat, begin, carter. Not in the stuff that they know, but the stuff that made them who they were. Said. Sadat was this great idealist. He was an idealist, but he grew up in a little town in the nile delta. Very rural, impoverished territory. But he had this sense of destiny. When he was a boy, a bunch of older kids were going swimming in an irrigation canal. They all jumped in and he jumped in after them and then he realized that he could not swim. He said his thought was if i die, egypt will have lost anwar sadat. What kind of child things like think its like that thinks like that . When he was 12, gandhi came through the suez canal on his way to england to negotiate the future of india. This made a huge impression on sadat. This small man with the fate of the empire in his hands. He actually took off his clothes and started wearing an apron and made himself a spindle. He also became a great admirer of hitler. And actually was a nazi collaborator. Did he ever explain not . Even years after world war ii, after 15 Million People are dead, he still expressed admiration for hitlers leadership and his opposition to the british. The other thing that people do not realize about sadat, he was an assassin. He became part of a group that was a murder society. They were picking off british soldiers who were drunk and wandering around cairo at night. He turned their attention to political assassination. On two occasions, tried to assassinate the egyptian prime
