" He may be part of the first suspected al-Qaeda cell uncovered in the US since 9/11 accords and speaking of Ryan Seacrest no -- Talking about how is -- a Colorado man who triggered a -- of terror raids on Monday New York City. Authorities fear it may be involved in a plot to bomb our subways -- that."

" Evidence gathered through email wiretaps and an informant also without documents on bombs and bomb making in his car."

" Also William Ayers autobiography. My kid my next -- understands -- better that anyone who uttered yeah. Program John Bolton former US ambassador to the UN and Fox News contributor he used diplomacy like -- celibacy and ambassador -- FBI eight. Director Robert Mueller said the plot goes."

" No imminent danger if he's just being nice he doesn't want us to panic because this isn't this look pretty serious."

" Yeah I would've thought that it says it's a pretty good sign of imminent danger that there out arresting people and searching their houses and their cars and whatnot that. I think this plot was they think was on the verge of coming to fruition that's why they moved yet yet -- this guy maybe part of the first al-Qaeda cell we've uncovered. Is that really true I. I -- we might have mustered up others. Yeah I was a little surprised by that maybe they have more direct evidence of of the linkage to al-Qaeda or something like that but obviously have been a lot of terror arrest in the country in the past seven years and I think I think that's that that's prove their active here so what happens this guy's -- If he's got what we do with them. Well he's apparently not under arrest yet I think that there's some speculation that maybe this thing. Back came out in public before they were quite ready but if they've got the good design for goodness sakes arresting and charging him with something -- yeah Agassi just keep that from Pakistan -- be doing there. Well without visiting relatives I suppose businesses. I'm sure part of what they're worried about that perhaps he didn't go back to get instructions or materials are. Confer with al-Qaeda leaders in the hidden in Pakistan and they knew I wanna move -- Obama speaking speaking at the UN General Assembly on Wednesday. And you wrote an Op -- about it about the things he's done what he should say he didn't exist six. I really can't read. -- I think I think you're gonna see adulation at the UN I don't think he has to say any thing I think she'll get a standing ovation. You know when bush used to speak today UN General Assembly called in his annual visit to the wax museum. -- but you know Obama has a higher approval rating overseas and he does in the US and annual sit next week yes holly I'm curious like what. Are there any awkward meetings. That you see between leaders like when leaders that don't like each other. I they don't see I I I -- they put on good faces are what happens. Well it's like a maneuver and -- on a dance floor to stay away from somebody you don't want to let you know there are lots of opportunities. The president's got to share the Security Council at the head of state level. Libby is on the Security Council so. Mar mar Gadhafi can -- can go up to and get him a copy of his book given a big bear hug. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad the president of Iran will be there are lots of opportunities for the two of them to get together I'm looking forward to next week. I think it probably gonna catch a movie. Yes I think the you know why write and I get a candidate like I'm Greta V guys and I got to talk you've got -- Sarkozy said today that I -- is still working at a new program. They want this. I mean -- were going to negotiate with them but not on our terms. Right that the Iran and -- played so like a violin played this administration these negotiations are like two ships passing in the night. And how bad is it for the United States. President Sarkozy of France takes a harder line against Iran's nuclear weapons program that President Obama that that shows the trouble were around -- that is scary."

" I got to ask you mom I read about how Israel has a bunker. Bob -- network that shelters are leaders and I'm sure we have one in the United States our leaders why I'm curious what that cut off. Like let other people that are allowed the bunker and the people that aren't in allowed in the fallout in the bunker know that they're not allowed in and did that bother them."

" Yeah there's there's -- hierarchy there's also another hierarchy of who gets to leave Washington when the nuclear weapons are coming in and if you're not on that helicopter out here there's nobody but a surface --"

" That it violated sure exactly get out hell out of -- kid again I could -- from New York yeah let let's let's sit up Venezuela even Hillary Clinton. Is concerned about this are we can do anything."

" Now I don't think so I think I think guess you -- Hugo Chavez meeting with the Iran is meeting with the Russians trying Russian tanks and -- air defense systems talking about. Nuclear cooperation and in the meantime our Latin America policy. Consist of joining with Hugo Chavez to dump on the government of Honduras and you figure that out it's crazy --"

" So do you have a comment on this show and tell -- the red -- foxnews.com. Kind of legal -- hello my direct line -- 212. I didn't apply to up until the comeback after a report from."

Nuclear weapons in general. But what -- my credit on that level one of the interest in pointing and Gordon you've written about this I think you understand this very well what North Korea has gain from the possession of nuclear weapons despite extraordinary. No matter what -- means we provide when you consider that nuclear weapons that given. This backward country and extraordinary opportunity to place and central role in world affairs is clearly due to the fact that nuclear weapons and if you look at Iran. -- political influence in the Middle East has grown large port. Because of the possibility that will develop nuclear weapons so when you consider the cost in the benefits the benefits are so significant compared to the possible costs. That there is no nation having nuclear weapons that has willingly going willingly to say you know what we're going to abandon. Nuclear well -- it willingly noble so what you need is some sort of structure section I -- right it's my -- exactly but even then even with the sanctions I'm saying. Let's assume for the sake of argument that refined all petroleum is we we have some sort section networks probably will but let's assume just for the sake of argument that does work. Why would the Iranians give up nuclear weapons because of that. Even at that -- the case largely because what influence they possess in creating Shia crescent throughout the Middle East is due in no small part to the existence of nuclear weapons of the possibility of nuclear weapons .

the decision that instead of focusing in on rogue nations like Iran. North Korea instead they're gonna focus on trying to read the entire world and this is word multi -- and -- and and I read the entire world of nuclear weapons rather than zero Inman. On any of the bad players the bad guys who are out to acquire nuclear weapons or bolster their programs. 44 and non non peace. Peaceful purposes.

Gordon is that this is your area of expertise Margaret nuclear showdown North Korea takes on a lot that it spoke about -- Have you are you today. I think one of the things that a President Obama wants to do is sort of create this global wave against nuclear weapons . And therefore in the process swamp the North Korea's and the rams and the Syria's of the world. And in that sense it could work if they really devote all their

to be abandoned article mine and constitution which prevents. The development of nuclear weapons -- in Japan says largely because of possible Chinese adventurism. On North Korea can send a missile from Pyongyang to four. So we've got to develop nuclear weapons would that be.

to be deathly afraid of a nuclear Japan. He -- South Korea and a nuclear Taiwan China has every reason in the world to. Nuclear weapons and all of these countries marginalized China's power they sort of make China relatively less important and the Chinese haven't quite figured out that the north Koreans can point their nuclear weapons north and west as well as south and he.

continuing to processes materials and go forward with its program doesn't stop North Korea from doing that. A one headline that was missed by a lot of folks just a couple weeks ago was that there was a ship that was caught going from North Korea to deliver. Some sort of weapons some sort of nuclear weapons type material. Too -- to Iran remember that was just have a couple weeks ago. Absolutely so we know that North Korea's up to no good we know that Iran is up to no good. But here we are focusing on in this world

AQ Khan who was the godfather where the father of and a nuclear weapons Pakistan and we know that Pakistan has nuclear weapons . And -- we certainly hope and keep our fingers crossed that they're guarded sufficiently but that he gets out on house arrest

of faced with a situation where you know Pakistan could splinter the nuclear weapons could end up in the hands of people who would. Could use them. At and have said that they want to use

that China and Russia will undoubtedly. Veto anything that -- in the Security Council -- administration has come to the conclusion that we cannot stop him further enrichment of uranium. As a consequence the view is why don't we have a Japanese solution for an. That is let them develop all of the the thought this up Faisal wrote the material what's necessary for the creation of nuclear weapons just don't build. Don't build a bomb and now that deal I think it's probably the one that's in the works. I'm

diplomacy do whatever is necessary in order to prevent the creation of nuclear weapons in Iran. If that does not happened Israel was left with very few options now what the president of the United States
