The media is ignoring this. so let s take a deeper look. this week, hugo chavez s hand-picked successor is sending security forces to crack down on protesters. for the past month, violent protests have engulfed this country. they have left at least 29 people dead. largely a middle class revolved against economic mismanagement. but lately, protests have been waning and the government s response has gotten more violent and more hardlined. the question is, is this a turning point? will the crackdowns work and kill this movement finally, or are we going to see a continued people taking to the streets and facing a crackdown from the police? we re going to get an insider s take from venezuela s former minister of trade. thank you so much for joining us. glad to be here. thanks for inviting me. first of all, what do you think is really at the heart of these protests? why are people taking to the streets? 15 years of mismanagement, 15 ....
Changed that? certainly i think it s too simplistic to say had the obama administration left a resill dual force in iraq, 5,000 or 10,000, that things would be dramatically different today. i would say there are two ways in which the obama administration might have had a different policy that could have materially affected the outcome. the first is, if they had left a residual force it would have been able to train, continue to work with the iraqi security forces, which have just shown themselves not to be up to combatting the al qaeda infill trants from the syrian border. secondly, this is the part that most people really underestimate is the fact that the u.s. presence was somewhat of a corrective compass on iraqi politics. for the last since 2003, iraqi politics were a competition between the traditional arab political culture and the new institutions that iraqis and americans were trying to bring in. and the fact the fact that we supported maliki who has turned out to be a ha ....
The following that chavez has. a lot of people feel that he s even more hardlined trying to get that kind of support. it s that charisma they say that he s lacking. thank you so much for that report. eight minutes after the hour right now. u.n. sanctions against north korea now fortified with china. the u.n. security council will meet to consider a resolution punishing north korea for last month s nuclear tests. this has drawn widespread international condemnation. this time even from china, which has blocked action in the past. the u.s. and china have reportedly agreed of wording of a draft resolution this time for new sanctions. and the cardinals are meeting again this morning. we may learn today when the conclave will start. this is an american cardinal in rome, heading the scandal head-on. he said the next pontiff must commit to zero tolerance. so whoever is elected pope, he governs by law. ....
Unequivocally, we re not talking about a shutdown nou. it s not a good thing. even nut gingrich, the architect of the shutdown in the 90s says it s not good. it makes one wonder are the others speaking in a set or tone that they can use as an option and that that would be disastrous for this country and the economy. i think if the cliff negotiations taught us anything, you can t listen to the hardline luster this early in the game. if you ll look at how close we came with the last stand off, everybody takes their hardlined positions. mcconnell is not going to go out there on the lamb and shut down these hard liners at this point. he s going to want to go in there with a strong of position as he can, making as big of ....
Got to prove it on monday, the first day of the convention. so far is headed towards an absolute abolition of any right at any level for any reason to have an abortion. it s an absolute hard line position which is consistent with ryan and akin. this is much more hardlined than the candidate espoused. but that is not consistent with the vast majority of republicans, pro-life and pro-choice. how come they don t get to write their own platform? since this plank was put into the body of our laws or rules back in 1980, that has not consistent. there s always been those exceptions. so it does speak to you know, some voices within the party. certainly on the rnc, the committee, that want to see this thing fleshed out further. i think that given what we are now dealing with, to the point that was just made that we re ....
