I can't tell if anyone is listening to Obama at un but the lack of clear Afghanistan policy is unwinding the coalition and
threatens to cause a massive deer in headlights problem for administration if not resolved soon.
Happy to give you confidential feedback on cgi speech though it's an easy audience. Good chance to put down the
Iranian and libyan sideshows while building upon message of renewed global cooperation.

but if she's back I'd at least like to call again. The timing, however, is
hard for a visit since I need to see Santa around 7:45 after seeing Lisa. It might work if she's there and wants to see

For Secretary Clinton

Dear Hillary,

You will remember our initiative to bring the most senior retired generals from the Chinese and US militaries. With
these 10 generals from the two countires, I am going to be in DC on October 21 and 22. these Generals have been part
our of our Sanya Initiative - the unofficial mil-mil dialogue I started last year. It'll be me, Joe Prueher, Charley Wilhelm,
Ron Fogleman, and Denny Reimer. The Chinese will be led by General Xiong Guangkai and include four other very senior
and respected Generals from the PLA.

The Chinese view this as a formal track one program and take it very seriously. We will meet with ADM Mullen and ADM
Keating in Honolulu and see GEN Cartwright at the Pentagon. It would be a terrific sign of the U.S.'s support for this
relationship if you were able join or host (I'd be pleased to fund) a very private dinner on the evening of the 21 or the
22nd of October. Just you, the Generals, and interpreters - perhaps the Chinese Ambassador if you think that would be
valuable.

I met with Kurt Campbell last month, and we will meet with him and Jim Steinberg. He expressed strong support for this
dialogue as well as the economic one we started in Beijing last August. You know we would welcome involvement from
State at any of our projects - our goal is to make a small but meaningful difference in the relationship.

Warm best wishes, (I'm cheering for you!)

Bill

(in Chinese)

Secretary Clinton,
Just wanted to make sure that you saw the news about one of China's oil conglomerates and the Iranian National Oil
Company over the
weekend:
Iran, China sign a major oilfield deal, Mon, 28 Sep 2009 15:05:09 GMT China National Petroleum Corp (CNPC) has signed
a contract with National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) for the development of Iran's South Azadegan oilfield. The Chinese
company will buy a 70 percent share of the whole project, according to an agreement signed Sunday in Lausanne,
Switzerland between CNPC and NIOC's overseas investment subsidiary, Naftiran Intertrade Company (NICO) that covers
a 90 percent stake in the project.
A likely explanation would be that this deal has been long in the making. Still, Tehran's motivation for releasing this
information in English at this time is worth considering.
The whole story from an English-language Iranian outlet is pasted in below, and I found three Chinese-language sources
with corroborating reports (nothing in English from China, though):

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759850 Date: 06/30/2015

CNPC, which won a bid in January to develop the North Azadegan oilfield, now holds a 70 percent share of the project
with NICO holding 20 percent, and lnpex of Japan having the remaining 10 percent.
The South Azadegan project is slated to produce 260,000 barrels of crude oil per day, and its development will cost
around $2.5 billion.
The field, along the Iraqi border, holds reserves estimated at approximately 42 billion barrels of oil, one of the world's
largest finds in the last 30 years.
Iran provides 14 percent of China's demand for oil.
The deal is couched in buy-back terms, in which CNPC will hand over the operation of the field to NIOC after
development and will receive payments from the oil production for a few years to cover its investment.
China's investment in Iran's energy sector has increased as some western countries, led by the US, have sanctioned Iran
over its peaceful nuclear program.

For Secretary Clinton

Dear Hillary,

You will remember our initiative to bring the most senior retired generals from the Chinese and US militaries. With
these 10 generals from the two countires, I am going to be in DC on October 21 and 22. these Generals have been part
.our of our Sanya Initiative - the unofficial mil-mil dialogue I started last year. It'll be me, Joe Prueher, Charley Wilhelm,
Ron Fogleman, and Denny Reimer. The Chinese will be led by General Xiong Guangkai and include four other very senior
and respected Generals from the PLA.

The Chinese view this as a formal track one program and take it very seriously. We will meet with ADM Mullen and ADM
Keating in Honolulu and see GEN Cartwright at the Pentagon. It would be a terrific sign of the U.S.'s support for this
relationship if you were able join or host (I'd be pleased to fund) a very private dinner on the evening of the 21 or the

22nd of October. Just you, the Generals, and interpreters - perhaps the Chinese Ambassador if you think that would be
valuable.

I met with Kurt Campbell last month, and we will meet with him and Jim Steinberg. He expressed strong support for this
dialogue as well as the economic one we started in Beijing last August. You know we would welcome involvement from
State at any of our projects - our goal is to make a small but meaningful difference in the relationship.

Warm best wishes, (I'm cheering for you!)

BEGIN TEXT
Questions have been raised regarding remarks by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on September 30 before the United
Nations Security Council on the adoption of a resolution to combat sexual violence in armed conflict. In her statement,
she said that we have seen rape used as a tactic before in a number of countries, including Sri Lanka.
Regarding the Secretary's reference to Sri Lanka in her address, we want to be clear. Over the course of the difficult
conflict between the government of Sri Lanka and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), stretching into this
decade, the State Department as well as credible human rights organizations reported numerous cases of rape and
sexual violence in Sri Lanka, particularly acts committed against women held in detention by the government. This was
the basis for the Secretary's statement. At the same time, in the most recent phase of the conflict, from 2006 to 2009,
though we remained deeply concerned about reports of extrajudicial killings, disappearances and mistreatment of
detainees, we have not received reports that rape and sexual abuse were used as tools of war, as they clearly have in
other conflict areas around the world. We hope that this clarification puts the issue in its proper context.
These questions should not detract from the specific actions that Sri Lanka needs to take now. With the end of the
military conflict, Secretary Clinton believes strongly that Sri Lanka must focus to the future and move forward on the
promotion of peace and the protection of human rights. The government of Sri Lanka should release more than 250,000
displaced persons who are still confined in camps, and lead a process of genuine political and social reconciliation. The
United States stands ready to assist and support the people of Sri Lanka with these critical challenges.

the basis for the Secretary's statement. At the same time, in the most recent phase of the conflict, from 2006 to 2009,
though we remained deeply concerned about reports of extrajudicial killings, disappearances and mistreatment of
detainees, we have not received reports that rape and sexual abuse were used as tools of war, as they clearly have in
other conflict areas around the world. We hope that this clarification puts the issue in its proper context.
These questions should not detract from the specific actions that Sri Lanka needs to take now. With the end of the
military conflict, Secretary Clinton believes strongly that Sri Lanka must focus to the future and move forward on the
promotion of peace and the protection of human rights. The government of Sri Lanka should release more than 250,000
displaced persons who are still confined in camps, and lead a process of genuine political and social reconciliation. The
United States stands ready to assist and support the people of Sri Lanka with these critical challenges.

Attached is the draft memo in its current state from the Holbrooke team (it does not yet include RCN's hand edits which
he just sent in).

As you will see, the beginning of this memo lays out 4 strategic interests, 3 of which overlap with the goals we discussed
in our conversation; the fourth goes to the international consequences of success or failure.

Assuming we go with the approach we discussed, a cover memo should work reasonably well with this document
(excepting the discussion on the foreign aid piece). See if you agree.

To actually see the document in its current form with showing edits you need to print the attached version.

Below is the version that accepts all the proposed edits and eliminates the comments so you can read on BB if you

Subject:
HRC: I wasn't satisfied by my answer to your question about how to gain leverage over the Pakistanis to move them to
more aggressively pursue AQ. I've thought about it some more and, while I have no silver bullet, here are some further
thoughts.
-- My impression is that the Pakistanis have been more cooperative lately in assisting us target some AQ in Pakistan and
that, where they hold back, it is less a function of affinity toward AQ and more about with whom AQ is imbedded..
-- In particular, they seem to be more reluctant to target AQ where it is nestled with groups they want to cultivate in the
event we "leave" Afghanistan and they need influence there. They have seen that before and will hedge their bets.
-- So the first point is that we have to address the reason why they are holding back. If we can disabuse them of the
perception that we are leaving Afghanistan, it will be easier to get the Pakistanis to go after AQ in sanctuaries provided
by groups which would be part of a future Afghanistan dominated by the Taliban.
-- Second, I believe that coercive measures are more likely to be effective if they are targeted against military leaders
who give support to AQ and its allies. Assuming we have adequate intelligence, we can go after bank accounts, travel
and other reachable assets of individual Pakistani officers, raising the stakes for those supporting the militants without
creating an inordinate backlash. Blunter measures of coercion, like conditioning our assistance, are more likely to be
counterproductive. Given the level of distrust for us among the Pakistani people, they would see this as another sharp
swing of the U.S. pendulum which would harden their attitudes and make greater cooperation very difficult for the
Pakistani people to accept.
-- There may be greater leverage in giving the Pakistanis incentives to be more aggressive. Of course, the military's
calculation is most important. I'm not sure what is on their shopping list these days but we would need to balance what
would move the needle on AQ against undercutting our effort to get them to shift their strategic focus away from India..
At the same time, we can be as forward leaning as possible in support of their counterinsurgency capabilities
(equipment, training, whatever material, intelligence and other assistance we can give them if they move into
Wazeristan -- including relief for displaced persons). If they finally take that step, we can do all that is possible to
demonstrate that our arrows are aligned with theirs..
-- On the civilian side, their desire for greater control over how Kerry-Lugar money can be used can be played to our
strategic advantage. If we give them a greater sense that they are directing the use of these funds -- without greatly
undercutting their effectiveness -- it strengthens our position to press them on AQ.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760082 Date: 06/30/2015

-- Finally, there is the defining relationship with India. Are there measures that the Indians could take that would reduce
Pakistani anxieties about the Indian front and thus better enable them to focus on threats to the East, including both AQ
and anti-Indian militant groups like LET? Are there confidence building measures such as information sharing on troop
movements that would both reduce uncertainty and support a Pakistani public narrative for a shift in emphasis from
India to the militancy? To the extent India seeks to have Pakistan move more vigorously against the militants, they could
see such steps as advancing their interests. This is tricky territory but may be worth pursuing.

I'm sure it brings back many memories to be in Marrekesh. The women in Morocco have achieved a great deal,

The gender initiative has potential but right now it's just a framework. It's going to take leadership. There are so many
good practices in the region that could be shared -- Morocco's family law reform being an excellent example.

Broader Middle East and North Africa


Democracy Assistance Dialogue

While many initiatives launched under the G8-Broader Middle East and North
Africa (BMENA) umbrella continue to make advances, the most striking progress
is in the Democracy Assistance Dialogue (DAD), which brings together NGOs and
governments in an ongoing basis to advance democratic reform in the region.
Representing a network of hundreds of BMENA NGOs and government
representatives, and with multilateral support, the DAD is now focused on incountry activities that will implement reform recommendations from the Forum
deliberations. To date, the DAD has convened activities in Morocco, Algeria,
Jordan, Turkey, Yemen, and Italy. The DAD represents a series of thematic
meetings, activities and research characterized by consultation and partnership
between governments and civil society. The DAD's three areas of focus are
women's empowerment, political pluralism, and freedom of expression.
The DAD partners developed "A Partnership between G8, BMENA Governments
and Civil Society." This Partnership Document reflects the contributions of many
BMENA governments and civil society leaders alike and outlines a framework of
universal, democratic principles to strengthen the relationship and partnership
between governments and civil society in the region. This document was
acknowledged by government and civil society representatives at the 2008 Abu
Dhabi Forum and is a product of based on substantive discussions and
deliberations between civil society and governments that began nearly two years
ago.
Since its inception more than five years ago, the DAD has facilitated effective and
successful relationships between willing governments, NGOs, the media, political
leaders and civil society experts in the region, and has created a collaborative and
transparent environment in which to accomplish this partnership. DAD partners'
work on in-country programs, including women's empowerment in Algeria, Jordan
and Pakistan, and as well programs in Morocco and Yemen that are focused on
freedom of expression, political party and electoral reform, are notable.

1P 23: BACKGROUND ON FORUM FOR THE FUTURE

From an idea of partnership to a growing reality, the Broader Middle East


and North Africa (BMENA) Initiative represents genuine cooperation
between the G8 and European nations and the governments, business, and
civil society of the region to expand opportunities and prosperity for all.
e The leaders of the G8 industrialized nations and BMENA countries
launched the Partnership for Progress and a Common Future a blueprint
for how G8 and Middle Eastern countries could best work together to
support indigenous calls for reform at the 08 Sea Island, Georgia,
summit in June 2004.
O The centerpiece of BMENA is the Forum for the Future, an annual
gathering of 08, European, and BMENA Foreign Ministers with civil
society to discuss and advance the reform agenda.
O The Forum for the Future provides a unique venue for BMENA civil
society organizations to meet with their government ministers as equal
participants. The Forum fosters constructive government-civil society
interaction to solve complex political, economic, and social problems of
participating countries.
O This year's Forum will include approximately 40 civil society
representatives who participate directly alongside governments. Civil
society participation in the Forum has risen considerably every year since
the first Forum in Morocco in 2004, when only five leaders participated.
e Foreign ministers from across the BMENA region, the 08, and other
partner countries now work with these organizations to further progress
and development in the areas of good governance, civil society,
economic prosperity, and education.
e This year, civil society organizations coordinated three preparatory
meetings involving governments of the region with a cross-section of
civil society leaders to outline priorities and develop recommendations
for the Forum ministerial.

The Secretary's Participation in the Forum for the Future
Tuesday, November 3, 2009
CONTEXT

You will participate in the Sixth Annual Forum for the Future and deliver a speech
that will highlight the importance of partnership within and across societies to
address common issues and elaborate on the steps the United States has taken to
enact the President's Cairo vision. This year's co-chairs, Italy and Morocco, and
civil-society groups selected political, economic, and social themes for discussion,
the latter of which includes issues such as education and the empowerment of
women. Your participation in the Forum shows continued U.S. support for
indigenous efforts of reform and development, and reinforces the importance
the U.S. attaches to greater cooperation between Broader Middle East and
North Africa (BMENA) governments and civil-society organizations in the
region.
KEY OBJECTIVES/ANNOTATED AGENDA:
I.

Opening Session

The Forum's co-chairs, Moroccan Foreign Minister Fassi Fihri and Italian
Foreign Minister Frattini, will deliver opening remarks. You will then deliver
remarks for approximately 15-20 minutes.
Theme 1 Political Reform / Local Governance and Democracy
The key to advancing and sustaining progress is action on the local level; civil
society groups and governments must develop effective working relationships
to benefit their citizens. While expanding the role of civil society is a long-term
effort between the citizens of the BMENA countries and their governments, we see
progress in some areas, including increased women's political participation, such
as in Morocco and Kuwait. The region's civil society continues to work toward
broadening the space for citizens to participate actively in public affairs,
particularly at the local level. Regrettably, some governments in the region have
sought to curtail the essential freedoms of expression and association. The United
States supports opening the political space for civil society to contribute ideas and
priorities to government policy-makers in shaping the future of the BMENA
countries.

-2HI. Theme 2 Economic Reform / The Impact of the Financial Crisis on the
Economics of the BMENA Region
Sustainable progress requires opening spaces for innovation and creativity,
particularly for young people and women. Expanding opportunities for
entrepreneurs is key to addressing job creation, supporting economic development,
and furthering civic engagement. By assisting the growth of small and medium
enterprises (SMEs) through easing business regulations, enhancing transparency
and accountability, and improving access to financing, countries foster economic
growth and give society new sources of resilience. Additionally, educational
systems need to be responsive to labor-market needs. The United States supports
employment-focused approaches to education, as well as engagement with the
private sector to tackle comprehensively the obstacles that hinder economic growth
and development in the region.
IV.

Theme S Social Development: A New Perspective on Human Security

The United States supports sustainable development in all sectors of society.


Women's empowerment political, economic, social, and cultural is a
prerequisite for progress. Women across the region have been breaking silence
around many controversial issues, from breast cancer to domestic violence. We
applaud these efforts and will continue to support women who are working to raise
the levels of education, health, rights, and opportunity in their countries.
V.

Closing Session

Concluding remarks will be delivered by the 2009 civil-society co-partners,


the Moroccan Organization for Human Rights and Italy's No Peace Without
Justice. Canada, as the next G8 president and Forum co-host in 2010, and the next
BMENA co-host will discuss plans and priorities for the 2010 Forum. After
Foreign Minister Frattini's closing remarks, Foreign Minister Fassi-Fihri will
present the Chair's Summary. The summary is traditionally drafted by the regional
co-chair and is not subject to negotiations, to avoid being bogged down in conflict.

Subject: Strategic Communications for Pakistan
Hello Madame Secretary. I hope you have a productive trip to Pakistan. I wanted to let you know that Ambassador
Haqqani asked me to submit a proposal to help the Government of Pakistan strengthen its communications with the
Pakistani public.

You may recall that my firm did similar hands-on work in Lebanon. The idea is to enhance the Government's internal
capacity to raise public awareness of its accomplishments, build support for its policies, and demonstrate the benefits of
democratic governance.

With stronger communications, they'd obviously be in a better position to convey the benefits of the US-Pakistan
relationship. We've followed Pakistani media coverage of Kerry-Lugar -- with more strategic communications
management by the Government, that could have been a positive story.

(The anti-American forces have used the same messages to attack US aid packages for at least 10 years. It was easy to
see the attacks coming.)

Communications help won't solve the immediate political crisis, but it could be one useful element of a larger strategic
communications strategy.

Madame Secretary:
Thank you for reaching out to Secretary Solis and convincing her to join the Verification Commission. She and Ricardo
Lagos will make for a very high profile and effective international component of the Commission.
We will meet with her this morning at 10 am to brief her for Tuesday's journey to Honduras. At this point, it appears we
have a military aircraft available. The plan is for the U.S. Delegation to depart D.C., stop in Miami to pick up Ricardo
Lagos, and arrive in Tegucigalpa together. We think this will send a powerful message to Hondurans and leave no doubt
about our commitment to seeing this process through to a successful conclusion.

You should be aware that Ambassador Hugo Llorens is under public assault. The Wall Street Journal dedicates its
America's column this morning to attacking him and calling for his removal. Last Friday, Representative Connie Mack did
the same. This chorus will grow as the extent of our accomplishment is understood. Llorens is a tough, stalwart guy. He
and his Mission have held firm during this crisis. A call from you would be a big boost.
Finally, we will hold an IPC today to identify further steps. We will keep you up to date on these steps and identify
further opportunities for your engagement.

I want to thank you for your leadership and support during this long crisis. Your willingness to engage at key moments
and take risks at the right time have propelled us much further than anyone expected. Your diplomacy prevented a
debilitating civil conflict in Honduras that would have destabilized Central America and undermined two decades of our
efforts. We now have a big opportunity in front of us, and for that we are grateful to you.

Oscar Arias told me he is very worried about whether the agreement will be implemented and is meeting w the

I also spoke w Insulza who is focussed on the elections which I told him we would fully support. Is there more we

Subject: Video Success and Another Idea

Cheryl

Hope this finds you well. I wanted to update you on the success of the video and also share a new idea with you. Give
the statistical results below, I honestly believe this is the State Departments first ever successful instance of policy
advocacy via viral video and the impact we have raised is worth noting. I have heard comments from all over the
building and outside that this is a new level of creating content/video that is engaging, interesting, educating and that
can have long term value for State and partners to use. Bottom-line, we have done something new in raising
awareness/attention on a major foreign policy initiative through compelling, and viral video -- the Department of State
has raised the bar.

It is hard to read the traffic exactly to their sites and ours but here are some initial stats:

Top line: Using State.gov, America.gov, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and more, we have use new media and connection
technology tools to reach over an estimated 100K audiences domestically and internationally through the video on Food
Security and ultimately have brought press and attention to a new focus. This video is engaging in that it raises
awareness and education on a critical foreign policy issue.

1.

It is one of the top 20 videos viewed on our Youtube channel, with over 5K views and rising. Considering how much
video we generate through the daily press briefings and videos through S remarks daily, I think this carries tremendous
weight that in a short amount of time and little push to reach out to communities we have raised the bar for engaging
content through video.

2.
Many organizations and users on Youtube have picked up the video and reposted on their channels, for examples
it is has been picked up heavily in China from one user who generated 3K views on his own already and I have been told
that it has been posted on major Ethiopian blogs through their video channels as well.
3.

Over 12,000 (estimated) have visited our main video page through State.gov where the video was featured.

4.

Almost 9K people have visited the Global Food Security page through State.gov to get more information.

5. ' Through pushing out on social networking presences at State, we have reached over 65,000 people who subscribe
and follow the Department of State and we pushed this video and the broader FS page to those communities through
Facebook, Twitter, and more.
Next Steps:
1.

We are making DVD's to give to posts

2.

Working on distributing to bloggers for continued use

3.

Will feature and push video to a larger audience when op-ed runs through a second push

5.

Working to translate and subtitle video for usage in countries around the world.

New Idea:
Cheryl, wanted to talk to you about a new idea that I have presented before but thought about using for FS in a modified
form. I discussed with Caitlin and wanted to see if you thought this was a good idea.

This proposal is to ask that Secretary Clinton begin an online conversation on Food Security where she can engage with
people at home and abroad.
1.
Through a video announcement she announces the opening of a global and engaging talk worldwide talk on global
hunger and invites people to submit questions on the topic. People can submit questions via video, text, email,
comment.
2.

The community votes and comments on the best questions submitted by one another and votes on the best ones.

3.
After two weeks, Secretary Clinton answers then the top five questions in her own response video. *** We could
even bring person with best question to DC to be a citizen journalist for a day and ask the top questions in person.
4.
We then use this video as a way to talk about the most frequently asked questions on global hunger, HRC's
responses to them and we have engaged a global community on the topic.

I can attest to the fact that this has thus far been the shining star of the initiative (from a non-policy perspective) and I
think speaks to how hrc will do diplomacy and development differently.
In addition to what katie mentioned-- Institute for International Education (goodman) included it in their weekly email to
more than 8000 institutions, Pepsi showed it an internal meeting last week and will show it at a global conference this
week, and CGI has gotten feedback about the video and has gotten increased interest in commitments in this area. It has
also been pushed out to posts through internal sites.
We are also trying to see if we can get it in a rotation or on mtvU or their website and bet as part of the world food day
push.

France: 'Autistic Tories have castrated UK in Europe'


French Europe minister says David Cameron's pledge to reclaim EU powers is 'pathetic' and will leave Britain isolated

<http://www.guardian.co.uk/profile/patrickwintour> and Allegra Stratton
<http://www.guardian.co.uk/profile/allegrastratton>
guardian.co.uk <http://www.guardian.co.uk>, Wednesday 4 November 2009 21.30 GMT

The Conservatives <http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/conservatives> were accused by the French government


tonight of "castrating" Britain's position within the EU by adopting an "autistic" approach that would take Britain off the
radar.
Speaking to the Guardian, Pierre Lellouche, France's Europe minister, described as "pathetic" the Tories' EU plans
announced today, warning they would not succeed "for a minute".
Giving vent to frustration across the EU, which has so far only been expressed in private, Lellouche who said he was
reflecting Nicolas Sarkozy's "sadness and regret" accused William Hague, the shadow foreign secretary, of a "bizarre
autism" in their discussions.
He said: "They have one line and they just repeat one line. It is a very bizarre sense of autism."
Lellouche, one of the most Anglophile members of Sarkozy's government, made his remarkable intervention after David
Cameron <http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/davidcameron> outlined a fresh Tory approach to the EU in the wake of
the full ratification of the Lisbon treaty.
A future Conservative government would seek to strengthen British sovereignty and repatriate a series of powers over
social and employment legislation, the Tory leader said.
Cameron said he was not seeking an immediate "bust-up" with the EU, and would allow the repatriation of powers
negotiations to last as long as five years.
But that position was not enough for the Tory MEP Daniel Hannan, who quit his role as the party's legal affairs
spokesman in Europe, saying he intended to fight for referendums to enable Britain to become "self-governing".
France's centre-right government condemned Cameron's plans, saying that they would marginalise Britain within the
EU.
Abandoning all diplomatic niceties, Lellouche said: "It's pathetic. It's just very sad to see Britain, so important in Europe,
just cutting itself out from the rest and disappearing from the radar map .... This is a culture of opposition ... It is the
result of a long period of opposition. I know they will come back, but I hope the trip will be short." He said Cameron's
approach was in line with the Tories' decision to abandon the main centre-right EPP grouping in the European
parliament, of which Sarkozy's UMP party is a member.
"They are doing what they have done in the European parliament. They have essentially castrated your UK influence in
the European parliament," he said.
Lellouche said he has told Hague personally that his position was a "waste of time for all of us".
"I have told William Hague: go away for two to three years, in your political economic situation you're going to be all by
your self and you'll come back. Go ahead and do it. That is my message to them ... You want to be marginalised? Well,
you go for it. But it's a waste of time for all of us," the French minister said.
Lellouche made clear the Tories had no hope of securing support for their plans. "It's not going to happen for a minute.
Nobody is going to indulge in rewriting [treaties for] many, many years. Nobody is going to play with the institutions
again. It's going to be take it or leave it and they should be honest and say that," he said. "It is a time of tumultuous
waters all around us. Wars, terrorism, proliferation, Afghanistan, energy with Russia, massive immigration, economic
crisis. It is time when the destiny of Europe is being defined whether or not we will exist as a third of the world's GDP
capable of fighting it out on climateion trade, on every ... issue on the surface of the Earth.
"We need to be united, otherwise we will be wiped out and marginalised. None of us can do it alone. Whether you're big
or small, the lesson is the same. And [Britain's] risk is one of marginalisation. Irrelevance." He explained: "Finally we have
institutional package, but it took 15 years of looking at our navel and getting everybody bored to death with sterile
debate"
In a sign of France's determination to resist the Tory plans to opt out of key EU legislation, Lellouche warned the French
would attempt to reduce Britain's EU budget rebate which will be up for negotiation during the next parliament.
He pointed out that France is a net EU contributor to the tune of 5bn (E4.5bn), unlike Britain which receives a rebate.
"If we get a government that is ferociously anti European that will vote down this kind of legislation then I think the
relationship is going to be very difficult. As we enter the next phase one of the issues we have to discuss midterm is of

course finances. France is a net contributor to the tune of 5bn a year, of which 1.5bn is the same as British rebate.
That should tell you quite a bit huh?" he said.
Cameron will be angered by the attack, and what it implies for Tory relations with the rest of Europe although in the
short term he will be more concerned to ensure his strategy of abandoning a referendum on the Lisbon treaty does not
provoke cries of betrayal on his backbenches.
Hague reacted to the French criticism by insisting that Lellouche's comments did not represent the true reception of the
Tories' plans in Europe.
"That is not how we are seen across Europe," he told BBC2's Newsnight, adding his party had established good relations
with Sarkozy's party.
"I don't think you will find that's representative of the reaction in Paris or other European capitals," he added.

Mrs Clinton, whose first visit as secretary of state was to China, inherited a situation where the US was the only country
other than Andorra that had failed to confirm its attendance at the Shanghai Expo - to the chagrin of the Chinese.
America's absence from the fair, running from May to October, was the first issue to be raised by the Chinese when Mrs
Clinton visited in February. "The Chinese were very upset," says Elizabeth Baghley, who heads Mrs Clinton's office for
global partnerships. "When she came back from China she said: 'Whatever it takes, this matters to China and to US
business and we are going to get this done'."

The task was more arduous than expected. Unlike all the other participants in what is expected to be the largest trade
fair in history, the US administration is barred by federal law from spending a single public dollar on global trade fairs.
Mrs Clinton, who has extensive experience at fundraising as a presidential and senatorial candidate, was also prevented
from asking for money herself.
The bureaucratic obstacles were made worse by the fact the Chinese had already tapped large US companies, such as
Cisco and Coca-Cola, to spend money on their own corporate pavilions, which will face their national counterparts
across the river around the fair in Shanghai. The situation was retrieved when three companies - Chevron, GE and
PepsiCo - were persuaded to put up $5m (3.4m, 3m) each. So far $46m has been pledged.
Mrs Clinton's emphasis on getting a US pavilion contrasted strongly with the attitude of the Bush administration. Some
even referred disparagingly to the "Chi-comms" - an old-fashioned abbreviation for Chinese communists. "The state
department basically saw it as a lost cause," says one state department official. "Some people laughed when they heard
Hillary wanted to do this."
Shanghai has huge hopes for the Expo, which it sees as a chance to cement the city's global brand as an international
financial centre and modern metropolis. With an official budget of Rmb28.6bn ($4.2bn) and 70m expected visitors over
the six months, the Expo has been marketed as the sort of coming-out party for Shanghai that last year's Olympics was
for Beijing - and an event to rival the great 19th century world fairs in London, Paris and Chicago.
Given such heady expectations for what will be the world's largest fair, the absence of the US would have been
considered a huge slight and a loss of face for the Chinese. Mindful of how much it mattered to the Chinese, Mrs Clinton
saw it as an opportunity to build their trust. During strategic and economic talks with Chinese counterparts in
Washington last summer, Mrs Clinton vowed she would get it done even if she had to "build it myself, brick by brick".
Mrs Clinton was also backed by John Huntsman, the US ambassador to China and former governor of Utah, who
repeatedly told Washington how much symbolic value it would bring to China.
Mrs Clinton, who will be with the US president on his state visit next week, is expected to visit the site and may be in a
position to announce that all the money has been raised.

Hillary's Moment: Clinton Faces the World By Joe Klein Time Magazine Wednesday, Nov. 04, 2009
It was Halloween night in Jerusalem, and Benjamin Netanyahu came dressed as a peacemaker. "We're prepared to start
peace talks immediately," the notoriously reluctant Israeli Prime Minister proclaimed, with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary
Clinton standing at his side, poker-faced. "I think we should ... get on it and get with it."
It was a ploy, of course. The Palestinians were tangled up in themselves, yet again. They had elections looming, and their
leader, Mahmoud Abbas, had to hang tough: he was demanding a total freeze to Israeli settlement-building on the West
Bank which was precisely what the Obama Administration had previously said it favored. Netanyahu was offering a
partial freeze, not including new settlements in East Jerusalem, the desired capital of a future Palestinian state. This was
a nonstarter for the Palestinians, but it had the holographic glow of a step forward. It was an "unprecedented" offer,
Netanyahu trumpeted, with the joy of a chess master springing a trap.(See photos from 60 years of Israel.)
It was a tough moment for Clinton, playing second fiddle at the Bibi-does-Gandhi show. President Barack Obama had
softened his language on the settlements a few weeks earlier: instead of a total freeze, he had talked about Israeli
"restraint" in settlement-building. And now Clinton seemed to cement the Administration's retreat, agreeing that
Netanyahu's proposal was, indeed, "unprecedented," even though the U.S. still favored a total freeze. The most
important thing, she added, was for the parties to get to the table as quickly as possible. The onus was back on the
Palestinians and the Palestinians quickly expressed outrage at the Obama Administration's retreat. Their Arab
neighbors soon joined in, causing Clinton to backtrack two days later, telling reporters the Israeli plan "falls far short" of
U.S. expectations, although she still insisted on calling it "unprecedented," which was neither diplomatic nor wise.
Suddenly the Obama Administration seemed wobbly on the Middle East; clearly, Clinton had been too bullish on
Netanyahu's proposal (which had been negotiated over months with Middle East envoy George Mitchell and was seen,
privately, by the Americans as real progress). But the Administration's mission was to get the parties into peace talks
without preconditions. The Israelis were now in favor of talks. The Palestinians were setting preconditions. And Clinton
had violated an essential rule of her job: boring is almost always better.(See photos from the life and career of former
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.)
Clinton's Three Qualities

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015

For the past 40 years, the awkward Middle East press conference has helped define the job of Secretary of State. You go
to Jerusalem or Ramallah; you stand there "guardedly optimistic" in public; in private, you try to move a comma, but the
Israelis or Palestinians move a semicolon to block your comma. The result is almost always the same: gridlock. The
breakthroughs, when they come, emanate from others. Walter Cronkite asks Anwar Sadat if he'd be willing to go to
Jerusalem ... and Sadat, to everyone's surprise, says yes. The Israelis and Palestinians hold secret meetings in Oslo and
reach what appears to be a breakthrough they're talking! which then becomes another dead end.
The job of Secretary of State is more thankless than glamorous; in some ways, the Department of State, a noble antique,
is still trying to come to terms with the invention of the telephone. In an era when Twitter haiku-messaging rules,
diplomacy moves at the speed, and requires the nuanced complexity, of literature. Power has drifted from State to the
National Security Council and the Pentagon, especially in wartime. Only a few of Clinton's recent predecessors have
distinguished themselves. Henry Kissinger, a National Security Adviser who belatedly became Secretary of State, was
Richard Nixon's schizophrenic alter ego; George Shultz was a strong policy voice in the Reagan Administration; James
Baker had clout because he was George H.W. Bush's best friend and a world-class dealmaker. Most of the others have
been frustrated or forgettable. And yet this is Hillary Clinton we're talking about the second most popular American in
the world, an eternally compelling and supremely talented character, the subject of constant speculation, a walking
headline. Her very presence in the job makes it crucial once more.
It is a clich to say that by naming Clinton, Obama brought his most popular potential opponent into the tent. The
conventional wisdom, too cynical by half, is that he thereby succeeded in neutering her, a theory bolstered by Clinton's
reticence during her first nine months on the job, with special envoys like Mitchell and Richard Holbrooke doing the
heavy lifting of diplomacy. But by naming Clinton, Obama also gave her great power, which cuts both ways: if she
becomes dissatisfied with her role or the Administration's policies, she can become a torpedo aimed at the Oval Office.
Colin Powell had similar power and a real gripe the Iraq war but never used it. Clinton has no such gripe, but as the
Obama Administration settles in and policy differences begin to emerge among the key players, the Powell conundrum
looms: How will Clinton choose to use her power? How will Obama react if and when she does?
Traditionally, the Secretary of State is judged on his or her ability to formulate policy, negotiate deals and manage the
striped-pants bureaucracy. Clinton has no history as a global strategist, although her performance in the 2008 campaign
indicates that she is a bit more conservative than the President, more the foreign policy realist than the Wilsonian
idealist. It is also too early to judge her skill as a manager or negotiator although her performance in Jerusalem
indicates that she needs a few lessons in Middle East Haggling 101.
There are, however, three qualities that could make her a memorable Secretary of State. She brings a vision of
departmental reform the need to elevate foreign aid programs to the same status and rigorous scrutiny as diplomacy
that could change striped pants into chinos in the developing world. She is also the first elected politician to hold the
office since Edmund Muskie briefly did during the Carter Administration, which has enabled her to better understand
and interact with the politicians who run places like Afghanistan and Pakistan. But most important, she is an
international celebrity with a much higher profile than any of her recent predecessors and the ability second only to
the President's to change negative attitudes about the U.S. abroad.
She has the potential to become the most powerful public diplomat the U.S. has fielded in quite some time, although
her performance so far, at home and abroad, has occasionally been perplexing. At home, she has often seemed
tentative and deferential. In a conversation with Secretary of Defense Robert Gates aired by CNN in early October,
Clinton's cautious formality took a backseat to Gates' brisk, humorous confidence on policy issues. Abroad, she seems
far more confident, at times to the point of recklessness, as in Jerusalem. (See photos of the last days of Hillary Clinton's
campaign.)
Independence and Candor
In the last week of October, Secretary Clinton moved squarely to the center of the world stage, attempting, at the
behest of her special envoys, to improve the rocky alliance with Pakistan and nudge the Middle East pugilists into talks.
In the course of the trip, there were the first stray wisps of a hint that Clinton wanted to begin asserting her
UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015

independence, as the Administration, facing roadblocks across the world, struggled for a firmer foreign policy tone after
an opening nine months that might be called the Rodney King "Can't we all just get along?" phase.
During her three days in Pakistan, she ran a gauntlet of town-hall meetings and media interviews that may have been
unprecedented, to use the word of the week, for a U.S. Secretary of State. The trip, planned by Holbrooke and Pakistan
specialist Vali Nasr, offered an unusually subtle itinerary for a U.S. diplomatic mission. A visit to a Sufi mosque that had
been bombed by Sunni extremists, for example, sent a powerful message to Pakistan's moderate Islamic majority. "We
saw her praying there," an academic named Shala Aziz told me, "and, for the first time, I'm thinking, The Americans have
hearts."(See photos of the suicide bombings in Islamabad.)
The big news was that Clinton allowed herself to be hammered with hostile questions from students, talk-show hosts
and Pashtun elders and that, on occasion, she pushed back, raising incredibly sensitive issues, like why no one in the
Pakistani government knew where Osama bin Laden was, even though he had been in the country since 2002. Press
accounts either emphasized the embarrassment of a Secretary of State's getting pummeled or fixed on Clinton's
undiplomatic bluntness. But they missed the point: her candor, her willingness to listen to and acknowledge criticism,
had begun to undermine the prevailing Pakistani image of the U.S. as arrogant and bossy, more interested in having the
Pakistani military fight its war against al-Qaeda and the Taliban than in having a true strategic partnership. The contrast
was especially sharp after George W. Bush's eight years of unqualified support for the military dictatorship of Pervez
Musharraf. "In the past, when the Americans came, they would talk to the generals and go home," said Farahnaz
Ispahani, a government spokeswoman and Member of Parliament. "Clinton's willingness to meet with everyone, hostile
or not, has made a big impression and because she's Hillary Clinton, with a real history of affinity for this country, it
means so much more."
Transformative Experience
There are no toasts at state dinners in Pakistan, because there is no alcohol. There are opening statements, though, and
Clinton's delivered impromptu on the first night of her trip after tossing aside her notes was surprisingly emotional.
Earlier in the day, President Asif Ali Zardari, the widower of Benazir Bhutto, had presented the Secretary with an album
of photos from her first visit to Pakistan, in 1995, and a framed photo of Bhutto and her two sons with Clinton and
daughter Chelsea. "It did bring tears to my eyes," Clinton said at the state dinner in her honor at the presidential palace,
"because I so admired your wife. She gave her life ..." She faltered then, choking up, but quickly pulled herself together,
talking about the "reasons why we do what we do to provide opportunities for all."
Clinton's first trip to Pakistan as First Lady in 1995 had been a transformative experience for her the beginning, I
believe, of the process that made her a plausible candidate for Secretary of State. I traveled with her on that trip; when
we set off, she seemed depressed and even more private than usual. The Democrats had cratered in the 1994
congressional elections, and she had been trounced in her efforts to enact a universal health care plan. It was a very
personal defeat; as Clinton traveled the country trying to sell the plan, crowds shouted her down and cursed her.
Privately she admitted she was shocked by the hatred. The trip to South Asia seemed a bit of a vacation it was
Chelsea's spring break but also a retreat to a more demure, First Ladylike role after two years as health care policy
czar, although it proceeded in a decidedly wonky, Hillarian fashion. Jackie Kennedy had gone to India and famously
ridden an elephant; Hillary Clinton traveled to five countries and packed her schedule with visits to NG0s.
"That was the greatest trip, just unbelievable," Clinton says now. We were sitting in her hotel suite the day after her
Jerusalem gaffe, the Secretary in an electric-blue shift rather than her usual formal jacket and pants. She was wearing
glasses and appeared rather freckly without her makeup. "I guess that trip has animated and informed everything I've
done since," she said. She emerged from the trip reinvigorated, with a new mission. By the end of 1995, at the U.N.
Conference on Women in Beijing, the First Lady had propounded a new Clinton Doctrine: "Women's rights are human
rights."(See photos of Beijing's changing skyline.)
Clinton is not an easy interview. She is preternaturally cautious, a consequence of her Methodist propriety and 20 years
of insane public scrutiny. She does not like to talk about herself, but she did tell me one interesting story about Bhutto.
When her husband was governor of Arkansas, she and Bill and Chelsea visited London and stood on the sidewalk outside

Bhutto's hotel, waiting for the then Pakistani Prime Minister to arrive. "She was wearing a yellow embroidered shalwar
kameez with a chiffon scarf. I was just a fan, standing on the sidewalk with everyone else. It was the only time I ever did
anything like that," Clinton says.
When Clinton and Bhutto met formally, on the first day of the 1995 trip, they hit it off immediately, in part because
Bhutto was also obsessed with the impact the Islamist tide was having on women and children. I remember asking
Bhutto that day what the biggest change in her country had been over the past 25 years, and she said, "I used to be able
to walk down the street wearing jeans, without a headscarf. Now I can't." When I asked her why, she said bluntly
"The Saudis," who had been aggressively funding religious schools. Of course, Bhutto's acquiescence to, and
participation in, the general corruption of the Pakistani government was part of the reason public schools were so
inadequate and madrasahs became popular. (See photos from the aftermath of Benazir Bhutto's assassination in 2007.)
Ironically, the rise of Sunni extremist groups like al-Qaeda has brought Clinton's interests microfinance, education and
health care to the center of national-security policy for the first time. The impetus came not from the State
Department but from the military, where counterinsurgency doctrine demanded that social services in war zones
schools, justice, economic development reinforce the military's efforts to secure the population. As a result, there
was immediate chemistry between Clinton and General David Petraeus, author of the Army's counterinsurgency
manual, who became one of her prime military mentors when she served on the Senate Armed Services Committee. At
one point, well before Obama made his presidential intentions known, I asked Petraeus if there was any potential
Democratic candidate who understood how his mind worked, and he said, "You mean, aside from Hillary?"
It was Clinton who brought together Petraeus and Holbrooke ("my two alpha males," she calls them) for the first time
at her home in Washington on the Friday before the Obama Inauguration. The affection and respect she gained for the
military while serving in the Senate has helped make the relationship between State and the Pentagon less fraught than
usual although Defense Secretary Gates' insistence on the need for bigger State Department budgets hasn't hurt. In
fact, relations with the Pentagon have gone smoother, at times, than Clinton's relationship with the White House staff.
Clinton was particularly irritated by the ridiculously strict vetting process that thwarted her favored candidate for USAID
director, Paul Farmer, from getting the job. "It was all sorts of niggling things," says a Clinton adviser, "like, Farmer had
at one point brought more than $10,000 in cash into Haiti. The money was for a needle-exchange program, but the
amount was illegal."
Another of Clinton's military mentors, retired General Jack Keane, once told me, "I'm a Republican. I disagree with her
about practically everything, but she'd make a hell of a Commander in Chief." There is a palpable toughness to the
woman, a hard edge that contrasts with the President's instinctive impulse toward conciliation. One of the sharpest
exchanges of the presidential campaign came when Obama accused Clinton of echoing the "bluster" of George W. Bush
after she said the U.S. would be able to "obliterate" Iran if it used nuclear weapons against Israel. Clinton's edgier tone
has been evident from the start of the Administration: she took a sharper position than the President on an Israeli
settlement freeze by claiming, in May, that Obama wanted "to see a stop to settlements. Not some settlements, not
outposts, not natural-growth exceptions." And then, in Jerusalem, her use of the word unprecedented seemed a
rhetorical leap beyond the No Drama ground rules.(Read "Clinton's Collateral Damage.")
The White House was not entirely thrilled with either statement. But then the White House staff is several steps
removed from a negotiating process. The Palestinians are weak and divided. The Israelis have been difficult, as always:
whenever Mitchell raises East Jerusalem in talks with the Israeli Foreign Minister, the Israeli stands up and walks out of
the room. Despite Netanyahu's momentary, tactical enthusiasm for peace talks, his Likud Party has always favored the
de facto incorporation of Palestinian lands into the state of Israel.
Hillary's Choice
The tensions between the White House and State raise a fascinating question going forward. Obama and Clinton are in
substantive agreement on the President's diplomacy-first philosophy and on most policy issues although neither is
willing to disclose the content of their private conversations but style often predicts substance in foreign policy;
neither Obama's gauziness nor Clinton's inconsistent bluntness overseas seems particularly solid. There is a growing
UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015

perception that the Administration's policies have been thwarted across the board: Afghanistan is a mess, Iran seems
ready to scuttle the nuclear negotiations, there's no progress in the Middle East, the Syrians and North Koreans remain
recalcitrant, the Russians have been offered a freebie on missile defense, and the Chinese have been given a pass on
human rights with no apparent quid pro quos.
The White House argues that some progress has been made: Iran is on the defensive, and North Korea has said it will
return to the six-party talks. Clinton argues, correctly, about the need for "strategic patience." But the only thing Obama
really has to show for his efforts so far is a Nobel Prize for Potential and no small thing the wisdom to have
refrained from doing anything so wildly stupid as invading Iraq. The President has been willing to use military force
the Predator drones that have decimated al-Qaeda's leadership testify to his lack of squeamishness but this
Administration is supposed to be about the efficacy of using subtler expressions of U.S. power. That doesn't happen
overnight, but for Obama's policies to be considered a success, it has to happen sooner or later, in a way that can be
explained to the public.
There is also a growing sense that the President's inexperience is beginning to show not in his overall policy, which
represents the views of a broad, moderate national-security consensus ranging from Brent Scowcroft to John Kerry, but
in his execution of the details. The Afghan strategy review has been too public and taken too long; the Middle East peace
hunt has become a wild goose chase. A letter to Iran's Supreme Leader is a productive gesture only if it gets a response;
if it doesn't, it seems weak and supplicatory. A call for the Israelis to freeze settlements is effective only if it is
accompanied by the credible threat of a reduction in aid. "You can't be seen pushing countries around demanding
[that] Israel freeze settlements, demanding that Hamid Karzai reform his government and not get results," says Leslie
H. Gelb, author of Power Rules. "The leaders of these countries are tough, successful politicians, and they'll begin to take
you less seriously." (See photos from the 1979 revolution in Iran.)
Clinton is unwilling to acknowledge these problems, and her staff is loath to admit her occasional mistakes. Her praise
for the President is fulsome, and aides say the relationship with Obama really really is strong. But there are also
burblings and emanations from Clinton's staff and friends, Foggy Bottom body language, that suggest there is a need for
the Administration to produce a second act after the Rodney King phase. And the White House is perplexed by the
uncharacteristic lack of discipline indicated by Clinton's occasional overseas gaffes.
These tensions are well within the boundaries of normal, creative policymaking. There is absolutely no indication that
the Secretary is frustrated to the point of jumping ship or returning to politics as a candidate for governor of New
York, as has been rumored. Quite the contrary, she seems intent on making history as Secretary of State. To do that,
though, she will have to have the same authority at home as she has abroad. She will have to become the President's
primary foreign policy voice. Over the first nine months of the Obama Administration, seven different Obama officials
have spoken on the Sunday talk shows about foreign policy. Clinton has been on each of the Sunday shows once. "Either
you have one person sending the foreign policy message, with the clear approval of the President," says a former
Republican Secretary of State, "or there is no message."(See photos from eight months of Obama's diplomacy.)
Aides to Obama say they would like to see her on the Sunday shows more often. (Indeed, Clinton's staff acknowledged
that she was asked to appear two additional times but was traveling and unable to do so.) Ultimately, though, television
is a metaphor for the larger questions that need to be resolved: How much can these former rivals both extremely
guarded and private people really trust each other; and, if not Clinton, who will emerge as the President's alter ego
on foreign policy? At this point, the strongest member of Obama's national-security team is Gates but he's a
Republican and an unlikely spokesman or presidential confidant on anything beyond Pentagon issues. General Jim Jones
has settled in as National Security Adviser, but he's not a political animal and every President needs a close foreign
policy adviser who understands the intersection of long-term strategy, politics and diplomatic chess.
Clinton's value to the Administration was clear in Pakistan. She wowed a public so skeptical that it had been questioning
the $7.5 billion in purely economic and humanitarian aid the Administration had promised. "How much damage control
have you been able to do on this trip?" asked Meher Bokhari, a television-news-show host, at the end of Clinton's
meeting with Pakistani women. The Secretary seemed nonplussed by the bluntness of the question. "I don't know," she
said. "I hope some."

Afterward, I asked Bokhari to answer her own question. "Well, this trip was long overdue," she said. "The Pakistani
people really needed to talk to an American about our concerns the strings attached to aid programs, the drone
attacks, their history of support for the military dictatorship. And it needs to be followed up. But if you ask me about the
damage control" she paused, thinking it through "I'd have to say a lot. She accomplished a lot."
In the end, though, Clinton's success will be determined by whether she can expand her role beyond public diplomat.
She will have to become a more sure-handed negotiator and, most important, a trusted adviser to a President who
knows where he wants to go in the world but hasn't quite figured out how to get there.

I have to say that this argument that the Taliban are ok to ignore is dangerous morally and politically.
The argument at the time was that harboring terrorism was the same as launching terrorism and that those who
harbored would be held responsible. This also had long term deterrence value against regimes that would outsource the
dirty work.
To now even consider giving the Taliban a pass after harboring terrorists who committed direct attacks on new York and
Washington defies the imagination. This wasn't some embassy bombing but a strike right at our country. The white
house or congress barely escaped destruction. Saddam Hussein wasn't connected to al Qaeda but the Taliban surely
were without question.
And Teheran and north Korea are watching carefully, gauging how much resolve the us has in stopping their plans. If the
us lets the Taliban off the hook then they certainly can conclude it will do nothing beyond sanctions with them. And
essentially letting karzai twist in the wind also suggests the us does not live up to it's commitments, giving pause to
those who would help the us.
Politically, this is also quite dangerous. Obama maintained througout the campaign and the start of his presidency that
this is the one to fight and backing down here makes him and the administration vulnerable to losing moderate support
and seeming weak and indecisive.
A single terrorist incident would be blamed on the admin. failing to do the job right.
I could go on and on with other negative ramifications but of all the options it appears to me any strategy that says
fighting the taliban are not in the strategic interests of the us should be doa.

Patrick Cockburn: To say this war must be won in a year is nonsense

Eight years ago I was standing on a hill 50 miles north of Kabul watching the flashes in the night sky as the US air strikes
started again st the Taliban front line. There were a few ineffective puffs of fire from Taliban anti-aircraft guns which
could do nothing against the bombs and missiles raining down on them.
It was a strange war to cover, not least because so little real fighting took place. The reputation of the Afghan fighting
man is partly based on agilely joining the winning side at the right moment. In the meantime they don't fight too hard
for anybody and try to avoid getting killed.

The US and British press mostly reported the war of 2001 as a real military conflict and rather missed the point that the
Taliban had just gone home. I remember visiting the former headquarters of a Taliban armoured brigade in the city of
Ghazni south west of Kabul. The tanks and armoured vehicles had all been smashed to pieces by American bombs, but
when I asked local people how many men the Taliban had lost, I was told "none at all. They could see what was going to
happen so they just ran away."
Just as the US military victory of 2001 was overstated, so eight years later is the sense of military crisis which is being
busily stoked by Gen Stanley A McChrystal, the top US and NATO commander in Afghanistan. In Washington military
officials are quoted as saying that the war will be won or lost in the next twelve months.

This is nonsense. The Taliban have been able to advance so rapidly in the last three years because they have Pakistani
backing and because of the spectacular political and military weakness of President Hamid Karzai's government. But the
Taliban draw all their strength from the Pashtun community, which makes up 42 per cent of the Afghan population.
They will have great difficulty advancing into areas occupied by the other 58 per cent of the population where there is a
Tajik, Hazara or Uzbek majority.
Squads of six or eight Taliban on motorcycles might be harassing the roads around Kabul, but there is no need to treat
them as if they were North Vietnamese divisions at the gates of Saigon in 1975.
The strength of the Taliban is that not that they can take and hold territory, but that they can inflict quite small military
losses on the US which are politically unacceptable back home. They can do this through roadside bombs, something the
US army speaks as if it were a new device, though it was being used against the British army in Ireland in 1921. If the
Americans and British try to hold territory supposedly cleared of Taliban with penny packets of troops then these are
vulnerable to being suddenly targeted by the other side.
It is to prevent this happening that Gen McChrystal has asked for an extra 40,000 soldiers. But Afghans tell me that more
foreign troops will simply mean more violence and dead Afghans as more of the country becomes a battlefield. It is
absurd to imagine that the world's most heavily equipped military force is not going to use its weapons when it comes
under attack. Polls also show that Taliban support is at its height in just those areas where Afghan civilians have been
killed by American shells and bombs.
So what should Obama do? First of all he has time. He is not going to win or lose the war in the next year. Like it or not
he is stuck with Mr Karzai and he should get used to the idea. It is reasonable to suggest helping to produce a larger
Afghan army and police force but this cannot be done overnight. Most military recruits are there for the money and are
too malnourished even to wear American flack jackets. Speeding up security training f or Afghan police meant over the
summer that terrified men, often on heroin, were being sent to man dangerous and isolated police posts with just three
weeks training. Many of them did not come back.
One way Obama could strengthen the Afghan army and police is to make sure their men are paid properly. In Kabul
many facilities are being guarded by policemen earning $70 a month, which is not enough to live on unless
supplemented with bribes. This contrasts with $250,000 a year paid to foreign consultants who lurk inside heavily
defended compounds. Paying the Iraqi army properly really did make a difference in Baghdad and might do the same in
Afghanistan where 40 per cent of men are unemployed. A difference is that Iraqi oil revenues last year were $62 billion
while the Afghan government is dependent on foreign aid.
The US and its allies will have to pay. It is carefully thought out measures like this that Obama should be considering and
not the panicky dispatch of US Special Forces or tens of thousand of more troops.

Re: Berlin speeches
Below are my notes for speeches in Berlin. The themes I stress are these: the importance of Berlin and the Brandenburg
Gate as symbols of freedom; the weight of history (always felt by Germans); the contribution of the US and the salience
of the Western alliance; the meaning of 1989 to today and especially the continuity of the Western alliance; and segue
from past to future.
What I have not done here but might be added are references to Angela Merkel (a courageous woman from the east
who embodies the highest values of the West); and specific policies. Those can be fitted in.
So, some ideas and language:

Twenty years ago the wall fell. Here, in Berlin, the moment when tens of thousands of citizens tore it down with
hammers and picks and bare hands is called "Die Wende," a phrase that means more than simply a change but a turning
point in history. It was not only a turning point for Germany and Europe but also for the United States because the
wallthe reason for its construction and the reason for its destructionis central to our common historyand to our
common future.

Richard von Weizsaecker said, "As long as the Brandenburg Gate is closed, the German question will remain open."
Today I can say with finality, the German question is closed, because the Brandenburg Gate is wide open! The gate is
open, Europe is open, and our future together is open.
In the forty years from the Berlin airlift to the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Atlantic partnership proved itself the most
successful alliance for freedom in history. That alliance was, is and shall be the crowning achievement of American
foreign policy. And the German American relationship has always served as its foundation. Our alliance represents the
reconciliation of former enemies, an inspiration to other peoples and continents devastated by war and hatred, and it
must never be taken for granted.
In the twenty years since the fall of the wall we have created architecture for an enduring peace. Instead of a wall we
have built a gateway to the future. President Kennedy said in 1963 that in the future free men everywhere will say, "Ich
bin em n Berliner." Today Berlin has gained a new and even more powerful meaning. Forever into the future, the opening
of this Gate will be the symbol of the return of the dream of freedom, not only to Berlin and Germany, but to the entire
world.
The Gate, we must remember, was not built as a symbol of freedom. And each of the tyrannies that used the Gate as a
symbol believed it represented their eternal power. The Gate was first erected as a symbol against the French
Revolution; then it became a symbol of the imperial ambitions of Napoleon who marched his army through. It was a
symbol of Prussian militarism and monarchy. It was seized by the Nazi Party as the symbol of its 1000 year rule. And
then it became a symbol of the Communist totalitarianism that built a wall to separate the people of Berlin as though
freedom could be contained in only one part of the city. Here, in Berlin, the Cold War was coldest.
We celebrate the fact that the wall that marred this proud city was taken down by the world's most enthusiastic
wrecking crew. The United States always believed in the freedom of Berlin because we believed in the future of
freedom. The courageous citizens of East Germany, Poland and other nations of the Communist bloc demonstrated their
dedication to free and peaceful solution of conflicts through their stand against dictatorship. America stood resolutely as
an ally at every moment of this struggle and moved swiftly to help the peoples of Europe reunite after 1989.
We celebrate the steadiness of purpose, the restraint and respect for ultimate goals that allowed the Cold War to end in
peace. For how the victory was won was essential to the triumph. 1989 was special. It was that rarest of historical
events: a revolution that did not descend into violence. As a result the Gate survives not as a cautionary monument to
history's darkest moments but to its brightest. Today we celebrate the revolution of 1989, the turning point that
transformed the Brandenburg Gate into the symbol of the hope of democracy and the promise of freedom.
Berliner Luft, the air of Berlin, has always been unique. I can feel and smell the spirit of freedom in your streets. The
great American poet Carl Sandburg called Berlin the Chicago of Europe. Chicago is where I was born and raised. I can
sense the same energy, openness and dedication to hard work in both great cities. Another Chicagoan, President Barack
Obama, was drawn to Berlin last July, a city that he said made him feel like a citizen of the world and a citizen of the
future.
I was very proud to visit our new Embassy at the Brandenburg Gate, located exactly where the Wall used to run. Our
presence here will forever underscore our determination that the spark of freedom from this city in 1989 will help light
the torches of freedom throughout the world.
The revolution of 1989 did not mark the end of history. Having made history together, we are summoned to secure
freedom for future generations. As vital at the beginning of the 21st century as it was in the last half of the 20th, the
Western alliance is called to new tasks. The dreams of 1989 reached farand have farther to reach. Old hatreds and
conflictsin the Balkins, the Caucauses, in the Middle East, East Asia, and Africastill simmer. We have much to
demonstrate what we have learned from the last century. Without freedom, without the rule of law, without the
opportunity for people to support themselves and their families without basic human rights-- anger, aggression and
violence will prevail.

Today we are faced with difficult and often dangerous conflicts arising not from conflicts between nations but within
them, conflicts exploited by zealots who make the false claim that violence will purify the world and open the gates of
heaven. Once zealots tried to use this Gate to symbolize that message. But through the courage and determination of
the people of Berlin and their stalwart allies, this Gate now stands for a true revolution of the spirit. The long twilight
struggle to tear down this wall to make Europe whole and free inspires us, in this new century, to help other peoples
gain the same measure of security, respect and progress.
We need Berlin more than ever today. We need your courage, your fortitude, your commitment to the rights of men
and womenwe need your example. We are hardly at the end of the history of the West. Standing here, where a wall
once stood but is no more, in the light from the Gate, we have learned from history's deepest lessons. Our alliance,
linked by shared struggle, dedicated to the ideals of freedom and democracy, strong from the world we have built, now
faces a new world of challenges. And we are ready to meet and conquer them. We know it has been done before. We
are free menand womenand proud to say, We are all Berliners.

We need Berlin more than ever today. We need your courage, your fortitude, your commitment to the rights of men
and womenwe need your example. We are hardly at the end of the history of the West. Standing here, where a wall
once stood but is no more, in the light from the Gate, we have learned from history's deepest lessons. Our alliance,
linked by shared struggle, dedicated to the ideals of freedom and democracy, strong from the world we have built, now
faces a new world of challenges. And we are ready to meet and conquer them. We know it has been done before. We
are free menand womenand proud to say, We are all Berliners.

The Berlin event is personally meaningful for me, not least because I was, in 1986, when I was a reporter for the
Washington Post, detained and held in a cell inside the Berlin Wall, after spending a night with dissidents in the east

I understand our offices are working on the schedules, but nothing is firm yet.
Your personal involvement with this group - perhaps a small lunch - would be a very important message seen at the

I'd be personally grateful not only on behalf of our group, but also on behalf of a cause that I believe will be a part of
leading to a trusting relationship between our militaries so that we will have friends in China - not enemies.,
Warm, best regards,

She advises that we need to give advance notice There are 4 seat in the Eisenhower that are complimentary and then 4 that would need to be purchased for nominal fee
(seems like a really silly policy) The same for Opera and in the Symphony there are 12 all complimentary. I think if we
begin to use the box on a regular basis we can work with them on the cost issues.
This could be a lovely way to serve many special guests.

SECRETARY CLINTON GETS IT DONE; EMERGENCY RELIEF SUPPLIES TO BE AIRLIFTED FROM
GREATER LOS ANGELES AREA TO SAMOA IN RESPONSE TO DEVASTATING TSUNAMI

Chairman of the Subcommittee on Asia, the Pacific and the Global Environment, Congressman Eni F.H. Faleomavaega,
and Congresswoman Laura Richardson (D-CA), announced today that the U.S. Department of State called them this
UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760203 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760203 Date: 06/30/2015

morning to inform them that Secretary Clinton has authorized the use of funds from the Office of Foreign Disaster
Assistance (OFDA) to get emergency relief supplies airlifted from the greater Los Angeles area to Samoa in response to
the devastating tsunami that struck Apia on September 29.

In his capacity as Chairman of the Asia Pacific Subcommittee which has broad jurisdiction for U.S. foreign policy affecting
the region, including Samoa, Chairman Faleomavaega personally spoke to Secretary Clinton on Oct 1 and, in letters
dated Oct 4 and Oct 5, followed up with her regarding the specific need to airlift emergency supplies to Apia, which
were gathered by the Samoan communities and congregations in the greater Los Angeles area.
The Samoan communities in the greater Los Angeles directly contacted Faleomavaega for assistance because many of
their families and relatives live in his district of American Samoa or Samoa. Congresswoman Laura Richardson has
worked closely with Faleomavaega throughout this process given that she represents part of the greater Los Angeles
area, and the Samoan communities living in that area are her constituents.
"I want to personally thank Secretary Clinton for her untiring efforts in getting these relief supplies airlifted," Chairman
Faleomavaega said. "Since the tsunami struck, Secretary Clinton has spared no effort in coming to our aid, and even
called upon the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) to quickly move these supplies from the West Coast to Samoa. Last
evening, Congresswoman Richardson and I learned that DOD had agreed to move the supplies but that due to legalities
of moving privately-donated goods, the process would take too long."
"In a previous conference call yesterday, anticipating that DOD might be unable to quickly move these supplies, we
requested the State Department to fund a commercial flight through the Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance should we
encounter any problems with DOD," Faleomavaega and Rep. Richardson said. "Last night, upon learning that the DOD
process would take too long and in consideration of our request for a more immediate airlift, Secretary Clinton assessed
the options while en route to Europe, and this morning the State Department informed us that Secretary Clinton has
agreed to fund the flight with OFDA funds."
"The agreement is that this will be a one-time airlift, and our Samoan communities should make future donations in
cash, rather than in commodities. We will not be able to airlift frozen goods, and our offices will work closely with the
communities to gather the supplies to a central location for the airlift. Also, the airlift provided by the U.S. Department
of State can only be authorized to land in Samoa. While we were also hopeful to get supplies in to American Samoa, all
matters relating to American Samoa are decided between the Governor and FEMA, according to federal law."
"I know from my meeting earlier this week with Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi that he is thankful to the
Samoan congregations and communities in the greater Los Angeles area who responded from the heart by collecting
critical supplies that will now be airlifted to those in need," Faleomavaega said. "For this reason, I want to thank the
Prime Minister for agreeing to accept this gift, and I also want to thank Reverend Liki Tiatia, Reverend John Mailo,
Reverend Misipauena Tagaloa, and High Chief Loa Pele Faletogo for all the good work they have done. Reverend Tiatia
and Reverend Mailo will be taking a flight to Samoa to make the presentation to the Government of Samoa on behalf of
our Samoan community on the West Coast and also on behalf of Congresswoman Richardson and myself."
"I especially want to thank Congresswoman Richardson for working around the clock in support of our Samoan
communities living in her district, and in Samoa and American Samoa," Faleomavaega continued. "Congresswoman
Richardson has stood by us every step of the way and has left no stone unturned in getting this done. She has been
staunch and solid in her dedication to us, and has earned her rightful place in our hearts. It is my honor to welcome
Congresswoman Richardson into our Pacific Island family."
"With so many people in need of basic supplies in Samoa, it has been a privilege to work with Chairman Faleomavaega
to assist the people of my district in making sure the items they have collected will soon be in the hands of their families
and friends," Congresswoman Richardson said. "This feat is only possible because of the dedication of Chairman
Faleomavaega and Secretary Clinton. Over 60 local organizations in the 37th district of California, including church

groups, non-profit organizations and caring others collected over 100,000 pounds of essential items to send to victims of
the tragedy that recently occurred. The lives of thousands of Samoans will be immediately and directly improved by the
actions taken by Secretary Clinton, Chairman Faleomavaega and all of us who answered the call to help. I am proud to
be a part of this exceptional team."
"It is clear that change has come and that Secretary Clinton is restoring America's stature once again, especially in a part
of the world that the U.S. has too long neglected. We thank Secretary Clinton for her leadership and commitment, and
for standing with the people of Samoa when they need her most, and we continue to extend our deepest condolences
to the families and friends of those who are suffering so much," Faleomavaega and Rep. Richardson concluded.

Afghanistan Education Support

American Federation of Teachers


Education Support Team Mission
Kabul, Afghanistan
July-August 2009
Assignment
My plane departed New York Kennedy for Kabul on July 28th and the refrain replayed
and replayed in my head "you are going where? Afghanistan. And why?" I was recruited by the
AFT' s international department to support the Afghan Teacher Education Department's RPM
(Rapid Production of Materials) activity in which two dozen curriculum experts wrote teacher
training materials for classroom teachers. The other two members of the AFT team, Betty Harris
(ABC California) and Amber Prentice (St. Paul), arrived in late August
The RPM took place daily over a period of five weeks at the Sayyed Jumalladin Teacher
Training College in Kabul. Twenty Afghan educators were organized into three groups, each
responsible for completing the training manuals for one grade level (4-6, 7-9 and 10-12). For
each subject at each grade level, a module of five 90-minute training sessions was created. This
activity was part of the ongoing USAID program aimed at providing in-service training to all
Afghan teachers across eleven provinces of the country. My primary assignment was to review
an English translation of sessions as they were produced and to make technical edits which
facilitated the flow and focus without losing the voice and intent of the Afghan authors.
The site staff included three translators and three Provincial Monitoring Officers
(PMO's) who had been diverted from training in the field in order to work on the RPM. The
PMO's played an important role in facilitating the whole project and in helping the AFT team to
positively influence the process. They were knowledgeable about pedagogical theories, teacher
training, and the needs of teachers in the field. We had regular daily conversations about teacher
and trainer needs and how to meet them. The PMO's then shared these ideas with the RPM
groups. Before sessions were translated into English for my review, the PMO's also reviewed,
edited and discussed the material with the drafting groups. This nuanced intervention by the
PMO's substantially improved the quality of the initial drafts.
In addition to editing, I was encouraged to monitor the drafting work and interact with
RPM participants. It soon became clear that Afghan teachers in the field needed low-prep, lowresource ideas for encouraging active student learning. I made several short presentations to the
whole group on low resource teaching tools, such as two sheets of paper folded over into a foursection flipbook. This becomes a handy organizer of information for students and teachers alike.
The PMO's helped to connect the ideas in my presentations to the specific interests of the
audience.
The AFT team's experience as working teachers and professional developers was
valuable in facilitating the RPM at several key points. For example, we were able to apply our
experience in coordinating the activities and output of large groups of teachers. We created
graphic organizers which listed all the modules/sessions to be produced so that each stage of
production could be monitored easily. This helped the groups to establish and maintain a pace of

work which led to the completion of all of their training materials on schedule. We were also
able to suggest practices, such as deliberate labeling of the teaching strategy and grouping for
each activity, which helped to produce higher quality drafts.
A great challenge to the production of effective training manuals was that they would
have to survive a "cascade" of at least three levels of turnkey training while retaining clarity and
effectiveness for final delivery to the often under-prepared, under-resourced, teachers in the
field. The training process had to build the skills of teachers, deepen their content knowledge,
and establish a foundation for ongoing professional collaboration at the school level. Moreover,
the teachers in the field, at least, would not be paid for attending the trainings, so the training
materials had to be coherent and speak to their immediate needs. One of the most important
AFT team contributions was to address these challenges by refining the five training sessions for
each subject into templates with standardized formats and language. The templates respected the
language and content choices of the Afghan drafters, but also helped to ensure that the training
could be executed effectively by moderately skilled trainers.
When my colleagues Betty Harris (ABC California) and Amber Prentice (St. Paul)
arrived in late August, the ground had been prepared for our team to complete the technical
editing of the Grades 4-6 RPM materials on schedule, to present appropriate teacher training
ideas to an audience of RPM participants and other Teacher Education Department officials, and
to consult constructively with the PMO's and NGO partners of Creative regarding the plans for
the implementation of the training materials.
Comments

o An earlier arrival would have helped the AFT team to make more strategic contributions
to the process, such as deepening participants' understanding of group learning activities
before they started drafting them.
o It was an advantage to send one member of the AFT team ahead in order to get a feel for
the project and prepare the ground for the rest of the team.
o Close interaction with Afghan educators helped us to discern some important issues.
These included the importance of recruiting and supporting first grade teachers, who are
often the first contact with formal education for children and their families, especially in
towns and villages. We also learned that there is a high dropout rate during Grades 4 to
6. It emerged that there is substantial variation in attitudes toward education in different
regions of the country, where local experience and tradition exert such powerful
influences.
Language barriers, despite the help of translators, inhibited the kind of nuanced group
facilitation in which AFT/Teacher Center trainers are skilled.
o Helping to refine the flow of the twelve-day trainings is where our AFT experience and
skills would be especially valuable. We expected that Amber would be involved in this
for much of September, but there were apparently some delays.
o Some delays were undoubtedly due to the difficulties of retranslation of our edited
sessions back into Dani and Pashtu. The similar format and language of the edited
sessions was expected to save time in translation after the first example was complete,
but apparently this did not flow as smoothly as we had hoped.

Collaboration with Creative Associates


I was profoundly impressed by the qualities of the local Afghan staff who work with the
U.S. contractor Creative Associates. They are serious people. In particular, the three Provincial
Monitoring Officers who worked on the RPM project demonstrated real depth of knowledge
about pedagogy, understanding of effective practices of professional development, and
familiarity with conditions in the field which are likely to influence the effectiveness of the RPM
training materials. The ancillary staff (translators and typists) were sometimes inconsistent in
their attendance and in the volume of their work. However, they always cheerfully helped with
presentations and facilitated interactions with non-English speakers.
Comments

o Better communication before our arrival would have facilitated better decisions about
what materials to bring and helped us to plan ahead in order to utilize most fully the skills
and experience of the AFT team.
O The practice of regular reporting to the COP and at staff meetings helped us to ensure that
the priorities, pace and quality of work were consistent with expectations.
o There was some confusion in working with the Afghan translators. They were cheerful
and professional, but it was difficult accurately to assess the efficiency of their work as
they translated the RPM materials back into Dan and Pashtu.
Living and Working Conditions
Accomodation at Creative's "Green House" residence in Kabul was comfortable but not
lavish. The rooms were air-conditioned (a necessity) and mine had its own bath. Local staff
cooked excellent meals took care of the rooms and our laundry. On a couple of occasions, we
were able to entertain people to meals. It certainly felt safe, since the gates were secured by
guards around the clock and the deputy security manager lived in.
For most of August, there were strict restrictions on movement. Even a short walk down
the street to the Creative main office involved half a dozen of the security staff. It was easy to
arrange with the security manager for outings in the evening to guarded restaurants which
catered to foreigners and for visits to the grocery store and certain secure shops. Tourist
activities such as strolling through the bazaar or along the main streets were not possible. After
Betty and Amber arrived, we were able to visit the National Museum (with evidence of multiple
lootings still visible) and the palace of the former Kings. The latter was an engrossing though
eerie experience in many ways a symbol of all the havoc wrought upon Afghanistan by a
generation of war.
Conditions out at the teacher training site were rather more challenging. Although
traveling in an armored vehicle, we were often stuck in traffic jams and the trip sometimes took
upwards of forty-five minutes. The site was a spacious classroom in the middle of the Kabul
Teachers' College campus. There were crowds of students everywhere, but one of the Creative
security staff was always on duty at the door, while the car remained just outside throughout the
day. Until the election lockdown began in mid-August, we were out at the RPM site five and a
half days a week. The workday generally ran from 8:30 to about 3:30. We seldom moved from

the room until leaving at the end of the day. During one week the heat regularly reached 110
degrees. There were electric fans and water coolers, but the flies and dust steadily swirling
through the open windows were hard on the people and computer equipment alike. When
working at the Creative main office, we were given our own desk space.
Comments

Living conditions might seem a bit spartan to person attached to the comforts of home or
a hotel.
Working conditions out at the Sayyed Jumalladin Teacher College site would be difficult
for a person unaccustomed to heat, dust, flies and minimal amenities.
All movement outside of the residences is tightly controlled. One cannot stroll around
the neighborhood.
On several occasions, we were conscious of gunfire and explosions in the general
vicinity. A person who felt especially nervous about random rockets at night or
explosions on the streets during the day would have found this mission difficult.
Social life in Kabul exists, but is restricted by security considerations.
Assessment
This summer's collaboration in Afghanistan between the AFT and Ministry of Education
was a remarkable success. The skills and experience of the AFT team were well matched to the
needs of the BESST project. We shared in common with the Afghan educators so many similar
concerns about the training and support of teachers that it was it was easy to step in and support
the production of training manuals. The Provincial Monitoring Officers were remarkably
effective in helping us to understand and respond to the needs of Afghan teachers. The Creative
team in Kabul were practical, open-minded, and welcomed our participation in the project. Our
full AFT team of three persons, although only together for a week, was able to collaborate
frankly and efficiently from the start. Our primary tasks supporting the rapid production by
Afghan educators of teacher training materials and preparing the Grades 4-6 manual for
publication were completed on time and to a high standard of quality. The project could not
have been more serious. Our AFT Team, in my opinion, made a substantive contribution to the
idea that Afghan teachers can be a community of educators.
This was a marvellous professional experience. It has convinced me that if Americans
listen carefully and lead pragmatically, we can help Afghans to build a professional community
of educators which could be a sturdy foundation for civil society. The AFT, with our tradition of
practical support in response to the needs of teachers in the classroom, can fill an essential role in

Recommendations for the AFT in responding to the needs of educators in Afganistan
Train Afghan educators in the use of low-prep, low-resource dependent strategies for
supporting active student learning, including graphic organizers and paper manipulatives;
Share and support practices for developing reading materials which are both
developmentally and culturally appropriate, such as collections of stories about local
families, occupations, traditions, and history;

Afghanistan Education Support


July August 2009

Nicholas Norman
AFT Consultant

Share experience and help develop techniques for handling large classes (sometimes of
100 students or more), especially in the early grades;
Share experience in effective instructional planning and execution under circumstances
where the school day, school year, and student attendance are not consistent;
Help Afghan Teacher Education Department officials and the teachers whom they train
and monitor to understand the value of formative assessments in monitoring student
learning, especially with regard to proficiency in reading and writing;
Provide training in Curriculum Mapping and strategies for sustaining the practice so that
Afghan educators are enabled to coordinate their efforts among subjects, grade levels and
schools;
Disseminate aspects of brain research with immediate, obvious application to instruction,
such as how the link between age and the length of attention span can inform lesson
planning;
Support more efficient planning and instruction by teachers in the field by providing
templates, strategies for setting priorities, and techniques for self-evaluation;
At the policy level, in training for school leaders, and in training for teachers, present a
paradigm of differentiated instruction which synthesizes common sense experience with
theories of learning into an agenda for sustained improvement of teaching and learning.
In support of this objective, I would recommend translating and adapting Judy Dodge's
Differentiation in Action and 25 Short Formative Assessments. These ideas are
digestible in small bites by teachers with limited resources;
Support the expansion and refinement of Teacher Learning Circles (school-based
professional groups);
Introduce and support effective practices for organizing, mobilizing, and sustaining
structures for local collaboration, such as Teacher Learning Circles, Lead Teachers,
community sponsorship of school activities, and provincial/district resource centers;
Share experience in techniques for building connects between schools and parents;
Help to develop a plan for teacher induction, development and retention;
Share experience in developing supports for 1st Grade teachers, who play a critical role in
Afghanistan as the first point of contact with formal education for many children and
their parents;
Help Afghan educators to widen the area of common language, experience and
benchmarks for proficiency in the teaching profession;
Through training of administrators, lead teachers, and instructional specialists, facilitate
supportive school supervision and provincial leadership;
Support analysis of the high drop-out rate in Grades 4-6 and help to develop strategic
responses so that more children move on to middle and high school;
Share low-cost but effective practices for acknowledging and encouraging professional
accomplishment by teachers;
Share techniques for building professional connections among teachers across provincial
boundaries. (The current set-up seems to be of the hub and spokes variety, with national
TED in Kabul at the hub, provincial TED's at the end of the spokes, and very little
reciprocal communication even between the national and provincial administrative
centers);

Dear Hillary,
Spoke to the person you recommended on Friday. Sounds like he is comfortable and even surprised that Pakistanis are
doing more. And maybe he will find some more ways to help, like the helicopter leasing. When I mentioned that
someone deep in the ISI must be happy that Al Qaeda's alive, so we don't abandon Pakistan again, he chuckled.
I talked about the "vetting" for intelligence. I also talked "defeat strategy," and the need for something more than just
deploying more forces and hoping the training for the Afghans will work.
I continue to be struck by the parallels to Vietnam, and especially Johnson's inability to resist escalation, and his
advisor's continued "incrementalism."
But I'm encouraged by the pace of the review. Seems that there's sufficient time to consider this from all angles.
I can imagine there are those arguing that we just need to fill the gap while we enlarge the Afghan army. That we help
the Pakistanis but not press them to the point of being unpleasant. And that too much focus on Osama and al-Zawahiri
raises the risk of public failure if we don't get them. There is much logic to this, but it has a strong tint of incrementalism.
Hopefully, we can be more decisive: lean harder on the Pakistanis, provide more troops to McChrystal than his
"moderate risk" and raise the heat on al Qaeda - then do all we can to push economic development in Afghanistan,
restrain Indian meddling, and prepare to do more against Al Qaeda in Pakistan, directly if necessary. Ultimately, it
seems that our best exit strategy would be to take down the top leadership of Al Qaeda in Pakistan, and then gradually
draw down in Afghanistan.
Wish I could do more to help
All the best,
Wes

Gordon Brown has hospital eye tests

Fears are growing over the health of Gordon Brown after Downing Street revealed the Prime Minister has visited
hospital for tests on his eyes.

Fears are growing over the health of Gordon Brown after Downing Street revealed the Prime Minister has visited
hospital for tests on his eyes. <http://i.telegraph.co.uk/telegraphimultimedia/archive/01485/brownquitter_1485290c.jpg>
Gordon Brown lost the sight in one eye in a childhood rugby injury Photo: PA Mr Brown visited Moorfields in London,
one of the world's best-known eye hospitals, after surgeons found two small tears in his retina.
The disclosure comes just two weeks after Labour Party chiefs were angry with the BBC because Andrew Marr, the
presenter, questioned the Prime Minister about his health, including his eyesight, during an interview.

Mr20Marr asked Mr Brown if he has been taking prescription drugs after rumours spread on the internet that he was
dependant on painkillers or antidepressants.
Mr Brown talked on the programme about losing the sight in one eye following a boyhood rugby. "I then had exactly the
same thing happen in my second eye. I had the same retinal detachment. I had the same fear that therefore I might lose
my sight in that eye," he admitted.
In a carefully-worded statement, No 10 said today: "This summer Mr Brown had his annual eye check-up which was fine.
Later he had his retina checked.
"After examinations, surgeons found that the retina had two minor tears. However, as there has been no further
deterioration, and no change in his eye sight, they decided against further operations. Yesterday [Friday] Mr Brown
visited Moorfields Hospital as part of regular c hecks on his eyes and this check was also fine.
"Mr Brown wants to thank the doctors and staff of the NHS particularly Moorfields Hospital. Were there to be any
change, he would of course make a further statement."
After the Andrew Marr Show late last month, senior Labour officials accused the BBC of smearing the Prime Minister.
However, the BBC defended the tactics and a spokesman said: "Andrew was asking a legitimate question about the
health of the leader of the country." The spokesman refused to be drawn on whether Mr Marr and Barney Jones, the
editor of the programme, had consulted executives at the BBC before deciding to ask Mr Brown whether he was taking
prescription medication.
Later Lord Mandelson, the Business Secretary, said it was "absolutely ridiculous" to suggest the Mr Brown had a
problem with pill use, and he blamed politically motivated bloggers for raising the possibility.
"We have seen out there on the internet, the blogosphere, all these extreme right-wing people trying to put these
smears and rumours about, all completely groundless," Lord Mandelson told GMTV. The BBC received more than 100
complaints about Mr Marr's line of questioning on the day the show was broadcast.

Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to express my longstanding commitment to assist the Haitian people in
their pursuit of a stable, prosperous and democratic future.

During my trip to Haiti, I was reminded of the tremendous challenges facing this island nation. The U.N.'s appointment
of President Clinton as special envoy to Haiti has helped to keep a much-needed spotlight on Haiti. President Clinton's
appointment of Dr. Paul Farmer as the Deputy U.N. Special Envoy for Haiti, adds an invaluable wealth of experience and
knowledge to the U.N.'s work in Haiti.

As a founder of Partners in Health and the Institute for Justice & Democracy in Haiti, Dr. Farmer has demonstrated a
selfless commitment to the advancement of health and democracy in Haiti for the past 20 years. I have witnessed
firsthand Dr. Farmer's dedication to helping improve the lives of those in need.

He has strong south Florida ties. I am proud to call him a friend, along with our mutual friend, Jennie Block, who has also
worked so hard on issues of concern to the Haitian community.

I understand that the conference on the Inter-American Development Bank in Haiti went quite well. I was pleased to see
that the United Nations voted unanimously this week to extend the authorization for the U.N. Mission in Haiti for
another year.

I would also like to take a moment to express my condolences to the families of those who lost their lives in last
weekend's plane crash during a U.N. mission. The U.N. mission in Haiti has helped to play an important role in bringing
security and stability to some of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Haiti. I continue to support its mission and the
many men and women from around the world who work to carry it out.

However, it seems that Haiti just can't get to the next step. From assistance to debt relief, from trade benefits to
hurricane recovery, U.S. policy toward Haiti has run the gamut, but it is not achieving the long-term goals that we had
hoped for for the Haitian people and that the Haitian people want for themselves and their nation.

I am pleased to know that our State Department is taking a closer look at some of the challenges we are facing in Haiti.
Last week, Secretary Clinton's chief of staff and her point person on Haiti briefed Members on some of the initial
findings of this review.

I am confident that this review will help us to better understand how U.S. assistance to Haiti can be better targeted and
supportive of Haiti's own plans and goals; how assistance within the donor community can be better coordinated; how
the U.S. can better engage the Haitian Diaspora in our assistance efforts; and, finally, how the U.S. can finally make our
assistance sustainable so that outside efforts can ultimately be transferred into the hands of the Haitian government
and its people.

It is crucial that the efforts made by the U.S., the U.N. and others are effectively coordinated to ensure maximum
efficiency and maximum benefit for the people of Haiti. Innovative microcredit and microenterprise programs would
help to empower individuals, create self-reliance and create sustainability at the grassroots level. We should also look at
the very small-scale renewable energy programs for impoverished rural villages and settlements that are not served by
electric grids.

One of the immediate ways we can help the people of Haiti would be to grant temporary protected status to the
Haitians currently living in the U.S. Granting TPS to Haitians is the missing piece of a successful U.S. approach to
supporting the people of Haiti in the short and long term. I will continue to work with my colleagues to encourage the
administration to take this important step.

In addition, I will continue to support Haiti's inclusion in security initiatives, such as the Merida Initiative, to ensure that
the U.S. is doing all we can to help President Preval in his efforts against the narcotr:affickers.

Success in Haiti is in the U.S. national security interest, and we must work together to help address the many challenges
we face and that our Caribbean neighbor faces day in and day out.

As of this morning OMB staff report to our staff that they will be presenting an analysis to Peter tomorrow afternoon.
We will have some more interaction between our staff that may narrow the gap. It seems like waiting another day
before either of us call Peter to see how much they are holding back would bne helpful.

As far as Afghanistan goes, we still do not know if a budget amendment will be going up next week or not. We should
know by Monday morning. Our staff has been asked to prepare a template without numbers so a decision could be
implemented quickly. I am confident that there will be time to have a discussion both at the highest levels at OMB and
the WH before this is locked. As far as the 2011 budget goes, we should hear back at least from staff early next week and
I will reach out to Peter and Rob to start a discussion at the top line level. I think we will want you to enagage some time
this coming week, but I would like to see what the real gap is first.

Dear Madame Secretary,


I am following up on the letter I sent to you on November 8, 2009 at the suggestion of Melanne Verveer.
On March 12th and 13th, in New York City, 300 influential women from diverse countries and cultures will come
together to illuminate the circumstances of their lives and to explore the still unfulfilled promise of women around the
world. "Women in the World: Stories and Solutions," will be hosted by The Daily Beast, the United Nations Foundation,
Vital Voices Global Partnership, and Diane von Furstenberg (and sponsored by Hewlett Packard who will bring their most
creative digital support).
We are delighted to announce that for our opening night on Friday, March 12, at the Hudson Theatre in Manhattan, we
have an extraordinary event planned. The legendary Broadway director Julie Taymor has agreed to direct the Vital
Voices play Seven, featuring acclaimed film and stage actresses. At the conclusion of this performance, we will host a
panel conversation featuring their real-life counterparts: Hafsat Abiola, Farida Azizi, Anabella De Leon, Inez McCormack,
Mukhtar Mai, Mu Sochua, and Marina Pisklakova-Parker.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760483 Date: 06/30/2015

Madame Secretary, we would very much like to dedicate this performance to your lifelong efforts on behalf of women
around the world. Melanne tells me that you have not seen the play, and there is no doubt that with the caliber of
actresses that Taymor has in mind, this will be its most sensational performance ever. If there was also any chance that
you would be able to moderate a panel afterwards that set the agenda for our weekend's discussions, it would be a
superbly valuable call to arms for an audience of influential decision makers, international media, and committed
philanthropists.
The Women in the World weekend will showcase vivid, powerful, and deeply personal testimony through first-person
storytelling, films, performances, exhibits, and interviews. The goal is not only to make these issues vivid, but to provide
a concrete outcome at the end, through projects we will sponsor and through commitments we have won from the
influential women who are present. Some of the topics will
be: Women in Afghanistan and Pakistan, Rape as a Tool of War, Women as Peacemakers, and Girl Up - The United
Nations Foundation's Campaign to Keep Teenage Girls in School.
Expected participants to date are: Her Majesty Queen Rania of Jordan, Ambassador Luis CdeBaca, Under Secretary of
State for Democracy and Global Affairs Maria Otero, Washington D.C. Schools Chancellor Michelle Rhee, Actress Cate
Blanchett, Tostan Founder Molly Melching, Women for Women International President Zainab Salbi, Hewlett-Packard
Executive Vice President Ann Livemore, former Senior Adviser for Women's Empowerment Shirin Tahir-Kheli, CNN's
Christiane Amanpour, former Homeland Security Advisor Frances Townsend, Actress Helen Mirren, Bank of America
President of Global Wealth & Investment Management Sallie Krawcheck, India's first and highest-ranking woman officer
Kiran Bedi, Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women's Issues Melanne Verveer, Co-Chairman of Sony Pictures Amy Pascal
and many more.
Madame Secretary, we do hope that you'll be able to find the time in your incredibly busy schedule to attend this New
York highlight of International Women's Month. I would be happy to talk to the appropriate member of your staff to
provide further details that might help make your decision.
Best regards,
Tina Brown

Re: Guinea/Madagascar

I agree on both, but wonder can we abstain on the first?


Also, I have not rec'd the speech draft. Should I have ?

Subject: Guinea/Madagascar
There are a number of different possibilities for how the decision on the Guinea/Madagascar credentials may go
tomorrow. (It is Zambia and Tanzania bringing the challenge on behalf of the AU.) I was under the impression that we
would not have to vote on the potential credentials challenges. We may have to.

We may have to vote on a motion to *deny* them credentials and exclude them. For the moment, the guidance is to
vote to credential all countries including these two as is customary, while conducting outreach with Tanzania,
Zambia, and the AU to explain that we have our own imperatives but we support the fact that they are taking a
principled stand.

We may have to vote on a motion to *defer* decision, which would allow them to be seated and vote but would not
formally grant credentials. For the moment, the guidance is to potentially support such a motion this was the practice
with respect to South Africa between 1983 and 1994. Everyone is in the same place on this.

Ultimately, however, the whole thing may die of its own weight. This is probably the most likely outcome.

Speech

sullivanij@state.gov

Thanks for all your hard work on this difficult speech to get it as right as possible. Here are a few comments and
questions:
We need to work in reference and quotes from POTUS Nobel speech near the top. I haven't read it yet so not sure
what's most appriopriate. Since the speech alluded to some of the same ground, should we be explicit in asserting that
this speech further clarifies/expands/explains what this Admin means by human rights?
The points about us not being perfect and the existence of evil in the POTUS speech should be woven in more here
too. For example, in discussion on p.7 about Japanese internment, etc.
In the section about supporting individual defenders, should mention that we did that thru State Dept ceremony
honoring brave women and applaud others like Vital Voices and RFK memorial who do same. Tell story about how I was
asked to mention the name of a Guatemala activist in my sppech to the parliament there because the attention might
literally save her life.
Look forward to further discussion later today.

Interview

In thinking about the Kissinger interview, the only issue I think that might be raised is that I see POTUS at least once a
week while K saw Nixon everyday. Of course, if I were dealing w that POTUS I'd probably camp in his office to prevent
him from doing something problematic. Do you see this as a problem?

Sen. Kerry and Iran sanctions bill

I spoke w the Senator about our concerns with the legislation and told him Jim had sent a letter and Rich scheduled a
mtg w his staff for Monday to discuss changes we would like to see. He said he was open to our suggestions for tweaking
but there were now 76 cosponsors. I told him we understood but still hoped for some changes before Senate action.

Erica, we are of course always ready to help. But I have to say the way in which these papers have been tasked has been,
frankly, chaotic. For two Fridays in a row we were sent taskers after 9 or 10 pm with short deadlines, and fulfillment of
one set of requirements has only led to another. We also note that there has not generally been an effort to distinguish
among bureaus in terms of substantive responsibilities and NEA has repeatedly had to refer USUN-W to other bureaus,
especially PRM and somewhat mystifyingly, 10.
lam honestly not quite sure what is needed now. There is already an 10-drafted paper on Israel in the UN that I cleared
Friday evening. Are you asking us to script her on that topic for her meetings? I doubt very much that Ambassador Rice's
interlocutors will seek to draw her into a discussion of the Israeli or Palestinian economies and I can't think why she
would raise that topic with them and what policy points we would expect her to make in the context of her visit. If you
really need background papers on the two economies, we can give you them.

Your folks have been terrific (especially Oni and Tom's team) in working with us yesterday and today to get papers ready
for the trip. We continue to scrounge up the last bits and pieces from the field and here, but we've given the main
briefing books to Amb. Rice who is digesting them now, and we'll get her add ons tomorrow.

After going through things briefly with her this afternoon, there is one request that we have on the substantive front.
We'd like to get (at whatever classification level is appropriate) really two additional meaty papers for her meetings with
Netanyahu and Liberman. These would supplement the material in her book. We are aware that these will be tough
meetings, but we also view them as a good opportunity to also cover a lot of ground. There are a lot of issues not in the
current papers that could come up: from Israel in the UN system, to Iran, to settlements, to the current Temple Mount
crisis, to the Israel and Palestinian economies, to the security barrier, etc.. Tom and his team may have additional issues
they'd like her to raise as well. She'd like to be over prepared for these meetings and realizes that the SBU format has
not given your team the latitude to get that done.

In these two cases could we get classified supplemental for her BCLs with lots of background, TPs, etc. Please blow off
any length requirements, etc. longer and more comprehensive is better in this case.

We know that doing these over the weekend is unreasonable. We can arrange to get these to her after she lands in
Israel. Would it be possible on the high side to get these two additional pieces by COB Monday?

like to try to meet her there. Incidentally, If she goes to Shanghai, it would be viewed as odd for her not to visit the Expo
site, given the personal interest she has taken in the matter. xo - jose

S requested points that she could use to call Micheletti. The negotiations continued this afternoon and evening. It is
evident that neither party wants to walk away from the table and bear the political cost of ending the national dialogue.
It is also evident that the negotiators (especially the Micheletti team) are working to ensure their leaders cannot
collapse the talks by continuing to explore options. In this environment, a call from S is worthwhile.
The points to use in the call are:

Stewart,

I went for news and indeed Guy is right. The meeting occurred yesterday and the decision was made to revoke the
government on October 29. I wonder what happened with the initial decision which was strictly concerning Minister
Dorsainvil and which was for November 20th or 21st.The idea had been sold that Michele should not be touched as the
President did not care to have a vacuum in these electoral times. Plus, Michele was finally regarded as ambitionless (not

seeking presidential powers) which is not a bad thing under the circumstances. Apparently, she, not being amenable to
sacrificing some of her Ministers...and again, she being the one to name their replacements, has brought about the
decision to do away with her altogether. The trouble is that nobody seems willing to counter the President with whom
the instructions have originated. It is a head to head match between the Prime Minister and the President. That is
obviously not good. Nobody will stand against the President elect for the Prime Minister appointed.

I will have two meetings with separate parliamentarians tomorrow. On one end the ones voting to oust her on the
other the week opposition. The frustrating thing is that none have allegiance to her, just as none have the individual
power to stand against the vote for which consensus is being secured.

The UN and other international players (at least locally) after having cried victory, success and democracy are reluctant
to openly and publically denounce the matter. After announcing a week or two ago that Haiti is the new place to invest,
how can they say anything but whatever is done, reflects good governance.

Frankly, I did not see this one coming. We need to think.

In touch tomorrow for updates.

Given how this conversation is going, I think we should wait on Zelaya. Micheletti does not seem at all willing to move.

M agreed for Tom to come but I'm not sure the statement is appropriate right now. I'd rather confirm Tom's trip and tell
Zelaya tomorrow. Should Restrepo go too? And he asked why the US military would not give them access to radar that
would help them stop drug planes?

I love how these leaders always claim they didn't know about the legislation. Same thing Karzai said.
But if this gets done, I'd like to put it out in a small way that we fixed it, just to have as a marker out there for the big
speech, whenever it is.

Cheryl:
My blackberry is down so I'm sending you a quick note from Uganda via Ambassador Jerry Lanier's account.
I met this morning with President Museveni in Entebbe. I raised with him the issue of the draconian legislation
proposed to criminalize homosexual activity. Museveni was unaware of the legislation but thought it was excessive and
out of order. He said he would work with members of Parliament to revise the legislation to make it a crime for adults
to solicit or recruit minors into any homo- or heterosexual activities. Activities between consenting adults would be
stripped from the legislation. I think we rolled the worst and most concerning part of this back.
Regards, Johnnie

Really good editorial here. Really worth reading.


This Week in Copenhagen
December 12, 2009
Editorial
We didn't expect much from the first week of the global warming conference in Copenhagen. Countries need to do a
little posturing before getting down to the hard work, which is supposed to start on Monday. But the belligerent talk
from China seemed to go well beyond the usual positioning.

The best hope is that the talks will produce an interim understanding under which industrialized countries would
commit to fairly precise targets for reduced emissions, and others, like China, to broader but measurable goals. The
industrial countries would be expected to help poorer countries shift to less-polluting forms of energy.
That would set the stage for a legally binding deal in 2010. But there is no chance of even an interim agreement without
the enthusiastic participation of China, the biggest emitter of greenhouse gases. China's absence would give other
developing countries and the United States Senate an excuse to do less than needed.
Beijing's recent pledge to slow the growth in emissions seemed like a positive shift in attitude. Then on Tuesday, in a
surprising show of defensiveness, China's top negotiator, Su Wei, said the greatest burden rested with the industrialized
countries and jumped on the United States, Japan and the European Union for not being aggressive enough. Another
Chinese official urged Washington to do "some deep soul-searching" and improve its proposal.
Todd Stern, the chief American negotiator, responded correctly: With emissions in many industrialized countries peaking
or declining, just about all of the growth in greenhouse gases is expected to come from the developing world between
now and 2030, half from China. Rich nations must still reduce emissions sharply, Mr. Stern said, but "there is no way to
solve this problem by giving the major developing countries a pass."
China has also been demanding that rich nations contribute hundreds of millions of dollars a year to help poor countries
address the threat of climate change. Again Mr. Stern was blunt. Washington is prepared to help those who need it, but
given China's huge reserves and revved-up economy, he said he could not envision "public funds, certainly not from the
United States, going to China."
The most positive development has been a pledge by the European Union to contribute $10.5 billion over the next three
years to help poorer countries deal with climate change. The United States has said that it will make a contribution but
has not said how big it will be.
Transparency is another difficult issue that must be resolved, at least in principle, this week. There is no point in setting
targets, or threatening penalties for noncompliance, unless countries are required to report emissions accurately.
Transparency has never been one of Beijing's virtues, and emerging countries generally need aid to create sophisticated
monitoring systems.
Copenhagen's broadest challenge is finding an equitable way to distribute the burden of confronting climate change.
Despite some differences, the industrialized nations have pretty much agreed to trim their emissions by 15 percent to 20
percent from 2005 levels in the next 10 years, and by 80 percent by midcentury. And all seem to be willing to make
expensive investments to get there. President Obama will need help from Congress, no sure thing.
A host of developing countries including India, Brazil, Indonesia have put broad goals on the table, though in.some
cases they seem more aspirational than real. But the bottom line is that the hope for a meaningful deal is vanishingly
small if China doesn't sign on.

I've asked Todd to identify the specific areas where he thinks progress can be made through discussions on Thursday.
At a high level, I think leaders' conversations on Thursday will begin to narrow gaps on the big issues -- transparency,
funding, inscribing commitments, etc -- IF (and it's a big if) those gaps are narrow-able. If they're not, then
Thursday/Friday will be days of trying and failing ... but at least trying.
Todd's view is that there is not enough time Friday for top-level meetings to close the deal; that two days are required.
You would be our head of delegation for the first, POTUS for the second.

There's a lot of good work in these papers and I thank everyone who helped. I have the following questions:
Why is there overlap btw what we sent over to the NSC already and what we have compiled into the larger
presentation? By my review, Tabs 1, 3, and 6 are in both packages. If we want to include these in both, we need an
annotated index that lists all the papers not just the main tabs.

I'd like a call this afternoon or evening to go over the draft Af-Pak regional strategy. Who should be on call? It is quite
good but lacks "milestones" and budgets for each section.
Re the required report for Kerry-Lugar, I want to be sure that the language in both our report and this one echo the

I never called Patricia Espinosa--should I?
Also, have we rec'd a memo from Shaun Woodard for Robinson and McGuinness calls?

PEF then spoke to RP about the OSE's concerns particularly in regards to how the
move would be received by the international community and how this would affect
stability in Haiti. PEF stressed that the positive momentum which had been
generated over the last six months could easily be undone if the private sector
perceived the PM's dismissal as a sign of instability. The majority of their
conversation took place in Creole so PEF is confident that nothing was lost in
translation.

RP stressed to us that his friendship with WJC was very important to him. He

successes. RP requested that both WJC and the State Department not take any
substantive action this week or release any statements until he has had an

Re: Latest on EU presidency

The political timing on the EU presidency is accelerating. Sarkozy and Merkel are meeting tonight (October 18) to discuss
it. The Czech constitutional court will issue its verdict on the legality of the Lisbon treaty on November 3. Shortly after,
perhaps that week, before you meet with Merkel on November 8-9, there may be an EU Council meeting to decide the
matter. So you may want to weigh in before then.
Tony is somewhat downcast on his chances. (He met with Jim Hoagland of the Washington Post yesterday; his mood
was described to me.) The Tories have ramped up their campaign against himnot only do they not want him but they
also do not want an effective EU president. Cameron has come down on the side of the anti-EU wing of his party on this,
an easy move. In an intriguing complication, there's talk now of David Miliband becoming EU foreign secretary if Tony
does not become EU president. Miliband denied he was interested and endorsed Tony. This is part of the anti-Blair
campaign ginned up by the Tories, extended to hurt Miliband if they can. Jonathan Powell is less gloomy than Tony,
thinks everything is still in play, which is why your part in this may yet be important.

Cheryl,

As of this hour of Thursday night there is no deal on an ironclad, substantive, political platform of national solidarity and
governance reform, in return for Abdullah's gracious concession which would obviate the constitutional and political
need for a problematic 2nd round.

Karl and I remain in close touch with the candidates as they continue their engagement. But short of a miracle, there
will be no such deal at least until Friday evening or Saturday morning, if then.

Hence, as we understand the exigencies of our Boss's travel sked, it appears to be time to pull the plug: we won't be
recommending before our Friday evening that she make a stop in Kabul on Saturday. The default remains: no Kabul
stop.

Nonetheless, Abdullah has now set Saturday as the date for his address to the nation, and Karzai clearly wants both for
him to concede, and to attract a visit of the Secretary. The best scenario would have been an announcement in the
presence of the Secretary, as a trusted witness to whom the parties would be more or less politically accountable. If we

public statement.

Wed., Palau was one of only two UN General Assembly members to vote with the US against a resolution calling
for an end to the US embargo of Cuba (Israel was the other). Even the two other states in free association with the US.
did not support the US position. Important officials in Palau wanted to abstain because of the drastic cut in U.S.
assistance that Alcy Frelick has insisted on but Pres. Toribiong decided to stick with the US. The proposal to cut the small
amount of assistance that Palau is receiving is ironic in light of the substantial increase in assistance pledged to the two
other freely associated states just a few years ago. It is also misinformed and misguided.

Re: Cameron Blowup in Europe

Without passing "Go," David Cameron has seriously damaged his relations. with the European leaders. Sending a letter to
Czech leader Vaclay Klaus encouraging him not to sign the Lisbon Treaty, as though Cameron were already Prime
Minister, he has offended Sarkozy., Merkel and Zapatero. Within the Conservative Party the Shadow Foreign Minister
William Hague has arduously pressured for an anti-EU stance, despite his assurances to you that Tory policy toward
Europe would be marked by continuity. Cameron has attempted to straddle factions, fending off calls for a national
referendum on the Lisbon Treaty. But this letter is proof positive of his tilt to the Tory right on Europe. The European
leaders understand that the letter signals his future policy and are reacting accordingly. Cameron's presumptive strike
has accelerated the predicted Tory-European split from post-election to pre-election. Whether this affects Merkel's
attitude on Blair and the EU presidency remains unclear, but Cameron's high-handed behavior is precisely the sort of
thing that provokes her. See the Guardian report below:

Guardian
Europe leaders incensed by David Cameron's letter Sarkozy, Merkel and Zapatero criticise Tories for attempt to delay
treaty Nicholas Watt <http://www.guardian.co.uk/profileinicholaswatt> and Ian Traynor
<http://www.guardian.co.uk/profile/iantraynor>
guardian.co.uk <http://vvww.guardian.co.uk> , Friday 30 October 2009 22.21 GMT Leaders of three of the most powerful
countries in Europe have strongly criticised David Cameron <http://www.guardian.co.uk/poiitics/davidcameron > at the
EU summit over Conservative plans to scupper the Lisbon treaty.
UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761367 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761367 Date: 06/30/2015

Nicolas Sarkozy, Angela Merkel and Jose Luiz Rodriguez Zapatero are understood to have privately criticised the Tory
leader after he sent a handwritten letter to the Czech president Vaclay Klaus, who is refusing to sign the treaty. The
letter was seen as an attempt to influence the Czech Republic, the only country not to have ratified the treaty.
Senior British sources familiar with thinking at the highest levels of the EU say that the leaders of France, Germany
<http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/germany> and Spain <http://www.guardian.co.uk/worldispain> all raised
questions about the Cameron letter.
It is understood that Cameron encouraged Klaus to delay the ratification of the treaty by setting out Tory policy to hold a
referendum in Britain on the treaty if it has not been ratified by all member states.
The sources have told the Guardian that:
* Sarkozy was overheard telling Gordon Brown that he was incensed by Cameron's letter, which the French saw as an
attempt to wreck the Lisbon treaty.
Merkel was also said to be upset by Cameron's letter. The German chancellor is understood to have echoed concerns
of senior figures in her CDU party, such as the former European parliament president Hans Gert Poettering, that
Cameron's behaviour had been untrustworthy.
Zapatero who addressed the recent Labour party conference and will have to negotiate directly with Cameron if he
wins the election because Spain holds the EU's rotating presidency until July 2010 made clear to diplomats that he
regarded Cameron's letter as damaging and an attempt to scupper the treaty.
The interventions by the EU leaders come as the Tories plan to abandon their two-year campaign to hold a referendum
on the Lisbon_treaty. Senior Tories told the Guardian that Cameron will set out his thinking in the coming weeks if, as
expected, the Czech president finally ratifies the treaty.
It is understood that Cameron will drop his pledge to hold a referendum on the treaty on the grounds that it is
impossible to open a treaty that has entered EU law. A Tory government would instead focus on repatriating social and
employment laws, in effect restoring the British opt-out from the social chapter. This has been sprinkled around various
EU treaties since Tony Blair ended the opt-out in 1997, meaning that its measures could only be restored to Britain with
the agreement of all member states.
Brown yesterday used his appearance at the summit, where he held a series of formal and informal one-to-one
meetings with EU leaders, to launch a strong attack on the Tories' approach to Europe. Speaking of the Tory decision to
abandon the main centre-right EPP grouping in the European parliament in favour of a smaller group consisting mainly
of fringe parties from the hard right in eastern Europe, the prime minister said: "The Conservative party are standing
apart from the mainstream in Europe.
"They are part of a very small group of minorities of 23 people apart from the Conservative party. They are standing on
the fringes of Europe. That is a huge mistake for British interests."
A Tory spokeswoman said: "We have never concealed the fact that we sent the letter ... David Cameron has made no
secret of its contents. It sets out his public opinion in a private letter."

Sounds good. Huma and I will work to set it up. The budget issue is complicated -- we've had several discussions about
it. It's hard to put down numbers with confidence.
Call should be with Jack, Piper, Rich, Paul Jones, and Sean Misko.

Re the required report for Kerry-Lugar, I want to be sure that the language in both our report and this one echo the
same language.
Paul, Sean, and Rich are going back over to make sure of that. Our chief method is to use framing language from the
strategy to frame the KLB report as well.

I never called Patricia Espinosa--should I?


Will check with WHA.

Also, have we rec'd a memo from Shaun Woodard for Robinson and McGuinness calls?
Huma should have this memo for you.
There will also be a PC on Af-Pak Tuesday and I want to be sure our report is ready.
Yes -- this is consistent with our timeline.

Re: The Berlusconi assault

1.

The physical attack on Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is a major political event in Italy and Europe. His
assailant is a mentally disturbed man without a political agenda who has been in and out of psychiatric care since he was
18 years old. Nonetheless, the assault has significant repercussions. It has generated sympathy for Berlusconi as a
victimhe has been obviously injured, lost two teeth and a pint of blood, and doctors will keep him in the hospital for
perhaps a week for observation. The attack comes as Berlusconi was beginning to lose political footing, having lost his
legal immunity. One court inquiry is turning up evidence of his links to the Mafia while another is examining his role in
the bribery case of British lawyer David Mills. Berlusconi's government and party have used the attack as a way to turn
the sudden sympathy for him to his advantage, claiming that his opponents have sown a climate of "hate." Through
demogogic appeals they are attempting to discredit and rebuff the legal proceedings against him and undermine the
investigative press. (Berlusconi is suing La Repubblica, the large independent newspaper in Rome that has been most
aggressive in digging into his affairs of all kind.)
2.
It would seem proper and decent for the President to call Berlusconi to express his concern about his health and
wish him a speedy recovery, if he hasn't done so already. There are many reasons for Obama to do this, not least to
condemn violence against a democratically elected head of state. It would be awkward for the U.S. President not to call
a Western head of state of a NATO country who has been physically harmed. Berlusconi, for his part, would certainly

make such a call public. It would therefore also be awkward if a call were used only as an element in his sympathy
campaign against the court proceedings.
3. If so, there is a larger message that should be communicated, perhaps by the President in his conversation, but
most importantly through a statement from the State Department, also conveyed by the U.S. ambassador in Italy. The
USG condemns any and all violence as an assault on democracy. By the same measure, this incident involving an
apparently deranged individual should not be exploited to raise social tensions. Instead, it should inspire reflection on
the necessity of every citizen to adhere to the rule of law as well as to respect freedom of speech and the press.
4. Two articles on the legal inquries into Berlusconi below:

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/worldieurope/berlusconi-cut-deal-with-mafia-court-told-1834647.html
Berlusconi 'cut deal with Mafia', court told Former hitman claims Italian PM gave 'benefits' to the Mob for political
support By Michael Day in Milan Saturday, 5 December 2009 The Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, made a deal
with the Sicilian Mafia in the early 1990s that put the country "in the hands" of the Mob, a court in Turin was told
yesterday.
Gaspare Spatuzza, a jailed Mafia hitman turned witness, told a packed and heavily guarded bunker courtroom that his
Cosa Nostra Godfather boss had cut a deal with Mr Berlusconi in 1993 that provided unspecified "benefits" to the Mafia
in exchange for political support. The media tycoon entered politics a few months later and won his first term as Prime
Minister in 1994.
Spatuzza said his boss, Giuseppe Graviano, who was jailed over Mafia bomb attacks in Rome, Milan and Florence, had
told him that the Mob had "got everything" with the help of Mr Berlusconi, adding that Graviano called Mr Berlusconi
"the man from Channel 5", in reference to his TV network.
The damaging claims came at the appeal hearing of Marcello Dell'Utri, a key Berlusconi associate and senator, who is
challenging his nine-year jail sentence for links with the Mafia.
Spatuzza, in prison for several murders, testified: "Graviano told me the name of Berlusconi and said that thanks to him
and the man from our home town [an apparent reference to Dell' Utri] we have the country in our hands."
Mr Berlusconi has denounced the claims of Spatuzza as "vile", and "unfounded and defamatory", denying ever having
links with the Mafia. The Prime Minister's spokesman said the testimony yesterday was the Mafia's "completely logical"
revenge against the Prime Minister for his "determined" fight against organised crime.
Dell'Utri told the court that neither he nor Mr Berlusconi had Mafia connections. "It's in the interest of the Mafia to
force the collapse of the Berlusconi government because this government has done the most in the fight against
organised crime," he said. Mr Berlusconi, who recently lost his legal immunity to prosecution, was said to have been
furious this week, after the parliamentary Speaker, Gianfranco Fini, the man who is supposed to be his closest ally, had
said that the Spatuzza evidence was "an atomic bomb".
Mr Fini was recorded by an unobserved microphone while talking privately at an official dinner. Rumours of the
conservative Prime Minister's links with the Mob have persisted since investigators learnt that a Cosa Nostra hitman,
Vittorio Mangano, worked as Mr Berlusconi's "stable-master" at the media mogul's villa in Arcore outside Milan in the
1970s. Much speculation has also centred on the origins of Mr Berlusconi's vast wealth.
Last week, the Prime Minister's broadcast group, Mediaset, and his holding company, Fininvest, announced it intended
to sue the left-wing newspaper La Repubblica over an article that said Mediaset was "20 per cent owned by the Mafia".
La Stampa newspaper noted that the "dread combination of Mafia allegations and separation from his wife are now his
principal torments". Mr Berlusconi's estranged wife, Veronica Lario, is said to be seeking a 3m-a-month divorce
settlement, and a messy courtroom battle looms. Mr Berlusconi also faces a retrial on the charge that he bribed the
British lawyer David Mills to lie in court.

After a Court Ruling, Berlusconi's Legal Woes Resume By Jeff Israely The world has spent the past six months wondering
how and with whom Silvio Berlusconi spends his Saturday nights. But the combative, scandal-plagued Prime
Minister of Italy would prefer to talk about his mornings instead. "Do you know how I've been forced to spend my
Saturday mornings since I entered politics?" Berlusconi once declared to business leaders in Rome. "With my lawyers."

Italy's self-proclaimed Defendant in Chief makes a point of lamenting all those weekends spoiled by stacks of court
dossiers as further proof that he is the victim of politically motivated magistrates, whom he called during the same
speech "the spreading cancer of our democracy." (See Berlusconi's worst gaffes.)

To combat such perceived persecution, Berlusconi has tested the bounds of decorous democratic conduct, including his
allies' pushing a bill through Parliament last year that gave him and other top Italian officeholders immunity from
prosecution. But since the Constitutional Court overturned that law in October, several criminal investigations into
Berlusconi's business dealings have been reopened, with other new charges rumored to be looming.
The potentially most damaging trial is set to resume Friday, Dec. 4, in Milan, with the 73-year-old billionaire being
accused of paying British attorney David Mills $600,000 in 1997 to withhold incriminating evidence about his
broadcasting empire Mediaset. Mills is appealing a conviction in the same case; both men have denied any wrongdoing.
So, alas, Berlusconi is back to spending his downtime with a well-paid cadre of more than a dozen avvocati, who have
been successful so far in keeping their biggest client clear of criminal convictions. Not that the lawyers have ever really
gone away. Since the media baron first ran for office 15 years ago, his legal advisers have doubled as political consiglieri,
key members of Parliament and even important Cabinet Ministers. Indeed, while some critics have spoken of
Berlusconi's reign as a kind of sultanate of showgirls or government by gaffe, others have described it as a republic of
attorneys. (See what Berlusconi's Obama "jokes" say about Italy.)
<http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1927307,00.html>
His longtime lawyer Cesare Previti served as Italian Defense Minister during Berlusconi's first term in 1994 before being
convicted of corruption himself (and losing twice on appeal). During Berlusconi's second term (2001-06), Gaetano
Pecorella, a former leftist, served as president of Parliament's Justice Commission, where he was instrumental in
shepherding through new laws that helped shield Berlusconi from investigating magistrates.
Giovanni Sartori, a Columbia University professor of constitutional law, says the role Berlusconi's personal lawyers have
played in his legislative agenda is yet another gargantuan conflict of interest to add to those related to his ownership of
Italy's main private television stations. But by now, Sartori says, Berlusconi's lawyers have perfected the art of exploiting
Italy's painfully slow justice system: many cases conclude without a final verdict because the statute of limitations has
been reached. "It is more a mania than a necessity," Sartori says of Berlusconi's near obsession in battling magistrates.
"He feels persecuted, and fighting the judges is what makes him happy."
Berlusconi's current point man is Nicolo Ghedini, a somber-faced, lanky 49-year-old criminal-defense attorney from the
northern city of Padua, who has served in both the Italian Senate and the lower house of Parliament. Ghedini has
continued to mount a grinding defense in the criminal cases, arguing in the Mills case that Berlusconi cannot be present
in the Milan courtroom for the next several months because of time conflicts with his duties as Prime Minister. Ghedini
has also spearheaded an increasingly aggressive legal strategy that has included several libel suits against opposition
newspapers. He declared in September that if necessary, Berlusconi would testify in a suit against a journalist who
referred to rumors that the Prime Minister is impotent. Last week, Berlusconi vowed to launch additional suits against
newspapers that printed unsubstantiated reports that a close adviser of his was involved in a 1993 bombing campaign '
by the Sicilian Mafia. (Read "An Offended Berlusconi Goes on the Offensive.")
<http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1920737,00.html>
Despite these many legal headaches, Berlusconi is embroiled in one other particularly thorny case that even he can't
blame on overzealous magistrates. Veronica Lario, Berlusconi's wife of more than 20 years, filed for divorce earlier this
year, which sparked an avalanche of accusations that he frequented a prostitute from Bari and an underage model from
Naples. The Milan daily Corriere della Sera reported last week that Lario has demanded 3.5 million euros ($5.2 million) in
monthly payments, and Berlusconi countered with an offer of 300,000 euros ($450,000). No matter how this and the
other cases shake out, there is little hope that Berlusconi can avoid a mountain of lawyers' fees and some grim
Saturdays that he'd rather devote to other business and pleasures.

We have to be proactive

Kerry is right that no one else can do this. We should get Ban to convene or do it ourselves. How can we? What do you
think?

I spoke w the Senator who is not ready to lift his hold yet. He spoke w the Charge in the Brazilian Embassy who told him
there was a procedure in the Brazilian courts that could be used to give Mr. Goldman custody now and during the
remaining time of the court proceedings.
Craig, can you find out what the Brazilians meant by that and if their govt is pursuing it?
Bob, can you and USTR contact your Brazilian counterparts to explain how important the Goldman case is to the Senator
who can't understand how the father wins every case but never gets his son back and he has run out of patience and is
willing to hold this critical bill.
Let me know what you find out. Thanks.

Sorry to bother on the Sunday before Christmas but the Echumenical Patriarch's crowd are extremely worried that he

Thought it was worth passing along and that you might want to get someone to pulse the Emabassy in Turkey.
Hope you are getting a little rest after one hell of a week. Notwithstanding some press whining, I thought BHO and HRC
did a fabulous job in Copenhagen and that the schedule structure has a much better chance of success than sticking with

Dear John,
Thank you for responding to me re:the safety of the EP. Unfortunately, the 60 minutes interview has been raising
jingoistic fervor in Turkey. As I told you, the Foreign Ministry called HAH on Friday to express their dismay and concern
that He was disparaging Turkey in such a public manner. Of course, HAH expressed His love for His country, Turkey, but
reiterated the painful, laundry list of issues faced by the Greek Orthodox Christian minority. Today, many of the news
outlets in Turkey are attacking HAH saying that He has condemned Turkey's good name. One of the nationalist papers
called HAH crazy and pictured Him hanging from a cross. (see attachment) The Foreign Ministries said, acourse, that
he was sure the EP made "a slip of the tongue."
Our concern is that some nationalists will attempt to do damage to the Patriarchate or, ever worse some nut from the
Grey wolves will be let loose to hurt/kill HAH. Of course, the Government may over react once they see the full
interview. It is an honest piece of journalism - but very very tough "to face the country in the mirror". Sadly, some
Greek Nationalists fan the flames from their side as well.
I am also sending you a blog<http://www.cbsnews.com/8618-18560_1625990771.html?assetTypeld=58&messageld=8825797>which shows some of the the lunacy out there on this issue.
Fortunately, we have good friends like you and an Administration that believes in human rights, religious freedom, civil
rights and dignity of every individual. Above all, we believe in, and glorify, the manager-born Messiah whose message of
good will amongst women and men is best expressed in social/divine justice for everyone.
Thank you
Father Alex

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762738 Date: 06/30/2015

Anti-gay laws sweeping through East Africa have sparked a debate in the United States about the possible influence of
American evangelical leaders and lawmakers with strong ties in that region. U.S. activists are also shedding new light on
the risks that gays face in East Africa.
In his book called The Family, American journalist Jeff Sharlet criticizes a group of influential American Christian leaders
and conservative lawmakers with close ties to politicians in East Africa.
He accuses them of treating some of the countries they deal with as social and political experiments.
"It has become sort of a Frankenstein's monster and is the family going to take responsibility for the empowerment they
have given to some of these politicians?," asked Jeff Sharlet.
In his book, Sharlet specifically refers to politicians in Uganda proposing an anti-gay law that would criminalize
homosexuality. The law, which could be passed within weeks despite international condemnation, includes possible
punishment by death.
Anti-gay laws were recently passed in Burundi, are being discussed in Rwanda, and could soon be expanded in Kenya
and Tanzania.
The American group Sharlet calls The Family is also known as The Fellowship. It organizes an annual National Prayer
Breakfast with the U.S. president and foreign guests, but besides that activity shuns publicity and does not openly list its
members.
But Sharlet says more American reporters are looking into the group and its alleged ties to Africa. These include helping
African politicians with money so they can push socially conservative agendas.
"We see reporters in Iowa, in Pennsylvania, and in Oklahoma, going to their elected representatives who have a link to
this whole thing and saying 'tell us about the link'," he said. "They are not accusing them of anything, they are saying,
'You have a relationship with the Ugandan government, what is the nature of that relationship? And, are you going to
use that influence to oppose this legislation that seems to be supported by some of your allies?"
Religious leaders like Rick Warren have also been under the microscope. He is the senior pastor of the California-based
Saddleback church, which is active in both Uganda and Rwanda.
After being questioned about his role by U.S. media, Warren issued a video message on the Internet, denying his
support for the law in Uganda.
"As an American pastor, it is not my role to interfere with the politics of other nations, but it is my role to speak out on
moral issues and it is my role to shepherd other pastors who look to me for guidance, and it is my role to correct lies and

completely oppose and I vigorously condemn," said Rick Warren. "I am referring to the pending law under consideration
by the Ugandan parliament, known as the Anti-Homosexuality Bill."
Rwanda's parliament is also working to pass a law which would criminalize homosexuality but Warren has yet to address
his church's role in that matter. In 2005, he called Rwanda a "purpose driven nation." Warren went with dozens of
American evangelicals to hold meetings with government ministers, lawmakers and donate materials to churches across
Rwanda.
Several American lawmakers who have been linked to the Fellowship, like Nevada Senator John Ensign have called the
Ugandan law proposal "outrageous". But others like Kansas Senator Sam Brownback, who went to Uganda in 2004,
have said they do not know enough about the bill to comment.

The executive director of the U.S.-based International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission, Cary Alan Johnson,
welcomes some of the questions now being asked.
"It is a debate that has to happen and we are glad it is happening," said Cary Alan Johnson. "Rwanda and Uganda are
both countries with deeply spiritual people and as of late we have understood that some of the more conservative
elements in the United States have been funding the most violent and homophobic discourses about homosexuality."
Johnson says those seeking to push an agenda should understand the consequences of their actions. He warns anti-gay
laws could worsen already high HIV levels in east Africa.
"The impact of these laws on HIV prevention is extremely worrisome to us," he said. "Laws we are talking about in
Uganda, Rwanda, will make it impossible for groups to do HIV education that targets men who have sex with men or
that targets bisexual people and we know that there is a strong impact of HIV on this community and on society in
general."
Lisa Laurel Weinberg, from the Massachusetts Lutheran Social Services Human Rights Protection Project, says the
situation is already very difficult. In her other job as an asylum attorney, she recently helped a young Ugandan woman
win asylum to the United States. The woman's apartment had been raided by police while she was inside with her
girlfriend.
"The police broke in and brought them to the police station and raped them in what is called a corrective rape," said Lisa
Laurel Weinberg. "It is when males of authority try and correct lesbianism through rape."
But Weinberg warns trying to fight the new laws from the outside is very complicated.
"I got an e-mail yesterday that said be really careful and check with Ugandans before you do any advocacy from the
West, because us imposing our values, they are really sensitive to the whole colonialism history, so that the email
cautioned be careful what you do and let it come from them," she said.
Some prominent politicians and journalists in East Africa have called homosexuality the "white man's disease." Pro-gay
groups in the region, which are mostly underground, say they are becoming increasingly afraid to ask for help, and
believe outside interference could worsen the persecution they face.

I think I would want someone higher profile.
If she is doing this, it's likely as a response to incoming rather than as an affirmative agenda.
Not sure how I got to be the person pushing all things in this area -- think from the earlier efforts on family benefits but
as general matter - we have a reactive mechanism right now (to others, to me sending emails re Uganda (and now
Rwanda is doing same kind of anti-gay law)) etc.
This would be someone who's portfolio would be an affirmative agenda.

Africa's Anti-Gay Laws Spark Accusations and Denials in US

Nico Colombant I Washington 21 December 2009

Evangelical pastor Rick Warren, 23 Jun 2009


Anti-gay laws sweeping through East Africa have sparked a debate in the United States about the possible influence of
American evangelical leaders and lawmakers with strong ties in that region. U.S. activists are also shedding new light on
the risks that gays face in East Africa.
In his book called The Family, American journalist Jeff Sharlet criticizes a group of influential American Christian leaders
and conservative lawmakers with close ties to politicians in East Africa.
He accuses them of treating some of the countries they deal with as social and political experiments.
"It has become sort of a Frankenstein's monster and is the family going to take responsibility for the empowerment they
have given to some of these politicians?," asked Jeff Sharlet.
In his book, Sharlet specifically refers to politicians in Uganda proposing an anti-gay law that would criminalize
homosexuality. The law, which could be passed within weeks despite international condemnation, includes possible
punishment by death.
Anti-gay laws were recently passed in Burundi, are being discussed in Rwanda, and could soon be expanded in Kenya
and Tanzania.
The American group Sharlet calls The Family is also known as The Fellowship. It organizes an annual National Prayer
Breakfast with the U.S. president and foreign guests, but besides that activity shuns publicity and does not openly list its
members.
But Sharlet says more American reporters are looking into the group and its alleged ties to Africa. These include helping
African politicians with money so they can push socially conservative agendas.

"We see reporters in Iowa, in Pennsylvania, and in Oklahoma, going to their elected representatives who have a link to
this whole thing and saying 'tell us about the link'," he said. "They are not accusing them of anything, they are saying,
'You have a relationship with the Ugandan government, what is the nature of that relationship? And, are you going to
use that influence to oppose this legislation that seems to be supported by some of your allies?"
Religious leaders like Rick Warren have also been under the microscope. He is the senior pastor of the California-based
Saddleback church, which is active in both Uganda and Rwanda.
After being questioned about his role by U.S. media, Warren issued a video message on the Internet, denying his
support for the law in Uganda.
"As an American pastor, it is not my role to interfere with the politics of other nations, but it is my role to speak out on
moral issues and it is my role to shepherd other pastors who look to me for guidance, and it is my role to correct lies and
errors and false reports when others associate my name with a law that I had nothing to do with, [and which] I
completely oppose and I vigorously condemn," said Rick Warren. "I am referring to the pending law under consideration
by the Ugandan parliament, known as the Anti-Homosexuality Bill."

It may be worth putting together a small group to think through the issue in some depth to decide whether there is a
more proactive strategy that may be possible and/or worth engaging in one or more countries :
1. Define human rights challenges around gay communities in many of our partner countries
2. Define the social political context (ie: how does civil society and the political/legislative activity converge or not
converge)
3. Potential role of Judicial response (eg: Adult Disability Act in US)
4. Role of multilateral and normative bodies
We are quietly doing this in PEPFAR over the next two months to assess whether we can work behind the politics to
increase the "safe space" for our populations seeking and/or in care (increase identification, entry and retention).

Cheryl, I hope you have a wonderful holiday, heading back to SF now, back in Monday (28th)

What is the best way to have a systematic assessment of what countries in Africa have laws proceeding or on the books
re: anti-gay measures similar to the Uganda bill?

I am particularly concerned as we begin to make determinations in budget process for significant investments in several
countries for GHFSI, Pepfar, GHI, etc., that we not be surprised.

Can you advise how we can proceed or if we should do a call or seek a tasking for this information?

Thanks.

Dear Senator Lautenberg,
I appreciated the opportunity to speak with you this past weekend regarding the custody case of Sean Goldman, the
young American boy wrongfully detained in Brazil for more than five years. As we discussed, the Administration has
long maintained that Sean should be reunited with his father David in New Jersey. I have made a point of emphasizing
this position with Brazilian Foreign Minister Celso Amorim during our many conversations, as have other U.S. Officials
with their Brazilian counterparts.
We have worked closely with the Government of Brazil to ensure it upholds its obligations under the Hague Convention
on International Child Abduction. We were quite concerned by last week's decision suspending the order reuniting Sean
with his father. We were encouraged, however, by the appeal filed last Friday by the Brazilian Solicitor General which
challenges this suspension. Like you, we are eager to learn of the outcome of this appeal. We understand a decision
could be announced shortly.
You can be assured that we will continue advocating for the reunification of Sean and his father and pressing the
Government of Brazil to ensure swift consideration of the Goldman case so that this long legal process may reach a final
conclusion without further delay. In the meantime, please be assured that the State Department as well as the U.S.
Embassy in Brasilia has been and will continue to be a resource to the Goldman family during this trying time.

I just spoke with Marie Damour, CG at Embassy Brasilia, who provided an update on the Goldman case.

A scheduled 1100 EST press conference by the attorney for the Brazilian family did not take place. Damour reports the
attorneys from both sides are still negotiating the details of the handover, as is the attorney for the Government of
Brasil. According to the 2nd Regional Federal Court, the deadline for the turnover at the Consulate falls at 0600 local on
12/24. However, there may be a push to turn Sean over to the consulate today in order to permit him to travel to the
U.S. on an overnight flight.

Dan,

I just got off the phone with Embassy Brasilia Charge Lisa Kubiske, who provided a recap of current developments in the
Goldman child custody case. Summarizing:

-- David Goldman's Brazilian lawyer and the family's attorney are currently attempting to negotiate an "voluntary
return."
--If those talks fail, Goldman will request the Brazilian police execute the involuntary return ordered yesterday by a
Brazilian judge. This outcome would create a negative PR climate.
--Brazilian police "think" they know the boy's whereabouts.
--Return to US likely will occur on an NBC News-chartered aircraft, as Goldman has inked some sort of exclusive deal w/
NBC for the story.
--Post has been working with WHA and PD on a possible S statement.

Ms. Damour,

Do you have any updated information to report? As you could imagine, there is significant high-level interest in the
Department on the Goldman case, and I am hoping to brief the Executive Secretary with the latest developments at
0745 EST.

Thanks.

Importance: High

I have just heard from the team in Rio that there will be no return enforcement this evening:
Tomorrow morning between 8-9, David Goldman's Brazilian attorney will go to the court to obtain the warrant
enforcing the return of Sean Goldman to the U.S. He will wait there pending coordination with relevant police and
judicial authorities to ensure that everything is ready, and they will depart for the family compound to take custody of
Sean.

Consulate General Rio will have cars ready at 9am for transport, and the team will be ready at the airport to
facilitate departure.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762853 Date: 06/30/2015

David's attorney has spoken to judicial authorities and believes that the motions filed at STJ will not be accepted by
the court, so will not interfere with the return. This does not preclude some last minute legal maneuvers, but he seems
confident that the decision by STF will effectively cut off other avenues. We will advise asap if this changes.

Subject: RE: Goldman Decision - update as of 00:45 local time

Given the hour here, I am less optimistic that we will pull off a return tonight, but we are still working to that end.

The Brazilian Central Authority confirms that the office of Regional Federal Court President Paulo Espirito Santo
has received the decision of STF President Gilmar Mendes. It is Paulo E-S who will be responsible for enforcing the
decision from Mendes, i.e. the return of Sean Goldman to the U.S.
BCA has promised to reinforce for Interpol the urgent necessity of police in Rio monitoring the location of Sean
Goldman. Embassy LEGAT office is double-tracking. We cannot, of course, ask them to enforce anything until the
proper judicial authority has sent them instructions, but we strongly urge them to be prepared.
BCA has turned over operational jurisdiction to Daniel Levy, from the AGU's office in Rio, to coordinate with David
Goldman's attorney and with the court in Rio. I have asked David's attorney to try and get some understanding from
Mr. Levy as to the timeline we can expect to see in this case.

What remains unclear:

We do not know if the judge from the Regional Federal Court intends to issue an execution order from his home
tonight at this late hour, or if he will wait until opening of business tomorrow morning. Note that 00B here generally
means 10am for a court. This only underscores the need to ensure that there is sufficient monitoring of Sean's
whereabouts.
We do not know how Judge Paulo E-S will interpret an "immediate" return order it could mean right this instant,
or it could mean some brief period of time where the family is ordered/encouraged to turn Sean over at the Consulate
or some other site.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762853 Date: 06/30/2015

We are working to obtain some sense of whether this is likely to happen tonight, or if we are better served getting
some rest now and starting first thing 00B which for us means 7-8am.
We have not had confirmation regarding the resolution of the motions in STJ, but frankly, I don't foresee receiving
an answer on that before mid-day Wednesday.

Subject: Goldman Decision - update as of 22:50

PLEASE NOTE I am aware of the intense interest back in DC about this case and will be passing information just as soon
as I receive it. This means that in most cases, I will not be able to confirm the information. Will try to identify credible
sources vice what rumor/press/others are saying.

Brazilian Central Authority (BCA) coordinating with David's attorney and the Federal attorneys in Rio to ensure that the
President of the Regional Federal Court in Rio has a copy of the STF order and is submitting the official request to federal
police to enforce. BCA says they still believe they can effect the turnover tonight and are at their office working to that
end. If/when the Federal Police enforce, their stated preference is to go to the airport and effect the handover there.
This is a scenario we've planned for.

BCA has mentioned the STJ motions filed by the Brazilian family as a potential obstacle, but thru their contacts in
Mendes' office at STF, have heard that Mendes intends to reach out to the reporting judge at STJ to resolve that issue.
As mentioned in an earlier update today, we have not had any confirmation that the STJ judge has accepted to hear the
motions filed by the Brazilian family, and has the option to decline to hear them.

If the family sees the writing on the wall (frankly unlikely at this point) and agrees to abide by the order of immediate
return, then in theory the handover would happen at the consulate and there is a plan in place for that.

Plans in motion to prevent them slipping away and Patricia Lamego is working with the police as we speak. Federal
Police repeatedly assured us they were prepped and ready to move but could take no action absent an order. They
know now there is one, so BCA will get them moving.

If the handover occurred tonight, I'm told we need 3 hours to get the plane off the ground, so overnight in the hotel.

Marie, if there is a handover tonight: that would be at the Consulate in Rio, right? Grandparents would bring Sean and
he'd spend the night...in David's hotel or at the Consulate?

It seems very, very unlikely that will happen tonight.

But if handover is delayed until morning, the family may try to slip away tonight. Can we ask the police to prevent that?

Importance: High

Here is what we know:

STF Pres. Gilmar Mendes upheld the motion by the AGU and David's attorney requesting he overturn the stay
imposed by Justice Marco Aurelio, based upon a motion filed by the maternal grandmother.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762853 Date: 06/30/2015

The order at first read appears to require immediate return of Sean.


The BCA is calling the Interpol director responsible for enforcing such actions to see if they will get set to move.
HOWEVER, BCA does not/not yet have a copy of the order, and it is the judge in the lower court in Rio that would
generally receive the order from STF and then contact DPF to enforce.
Sergio Brito, the prosecutor who has assisted David's attorney on the Hague case is attempting to contact the
judge in the court of first instance in an effort to move as quickly as possible. Note that the court of first instance is on
recess and the "duty court" judge will need to take action, but magistrates in Rio are keenly aware of the status of the
case and may be prepared to move this evening.
BCA is hoping to effect handover tonight, and will plan to send their psychologist to Rio if the handover must
happen tomorrow morning.

What we don't know:

No details yet on what else is contained in the order, which is likely to affect the next steps taken by the Brazilian
family.
No details as yet on what, if anything the Brazilian family has done in response to the news from STF.

Embassy staff are in the room with David's Brazilian attorney and will report just as soon as we have any details to offer.
Please advise me if you have any specific questions we need to pose to the team.

How do I know China wrecked the Copenhagen deal? I was in the room
As recriminations fly post-Copenhagen, one writer offers a fly-on-the-wall account of how talks failed

Mark Lynas <http://www.guardian.co.uk/profile/marklynas>


guardian.co.ulhttp://www.guardian.co.uk> , Tuesday 22 December 2009 19.54 GMT
Copenhagen was a disaster. That much is agreed. But the truth about what actually happened is in danger of being lost
amid the spin and inevitable mutual recriminations. The truth is this: China <http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/china >
wrecked the talks, intentionally humiliated Barack Obama, and insisted on an awful "deal" so western leaders would
walk away carrying the blame. How do I know this? Because I was in the room and saw it happen.
China's strategy was simple: block the open negotiations for two weeks, and then ensure that the closed-door deal
made it look as if the west had failed the world's poor once again. And sure enough, the aid agencies, civil society
movements and environmental groups all took the bait. The failure was "the inevitable result of rich countries refusing
adequately and fairly to shoulder their overwhelming responsibility", said Christian Aid. "Rich countries have bullied
developing nations," fumed Friends of the Earth International.
All very predictable, but the complete opposite of the truth. Even George Monbiot, writing in yesterday's Guardian,
made the mistake of singiy blaming Obama. But i saw Obama fighting desperately to salvage a deal, and the Chinese
delegate saying "no", over and over again. Monbiot even approvingly quoted the Sudanese delegate Lumumba Di-Aping,
who denounced the Copenhagen accord as "a suicide pact, an incineration pact, in order to maintain the economic
dominance of a few countries".
Sudan behaves at the talks as a puppet of China; one of a number of countries that relieves the Chinese delegation of
having to fight its battles in open sessions. It was a perfect stitch-up. China gutted the deal behind the scenes, and then
left its proxies to savage it in public.
Here's what actually went on late last Friday night, as heads of state from two dozen countries met behind closed doors.
- Obama was at the table for several hours, sitting between Gordon Brown and the Ethiopian prime minister, IVIeles
Zenawi. The Danish prime minister chaired, and on his right sat Ban Ki-moon, secretary-general of the UN. Probably only
about 50 or 60 people, including the heads of state, were in the room. I was attached to one of the delegations, whose
head of state was also present for most of the time.
What I saw was profoundly shocking. The Chinese premier, Wen Jinbao, did not deign to attend the meetings personally,
instead sending a second-tier official in the country's foreign ministry to sit opposite Obama himself. The diplomatic
snub was obvious and brutal, as was the practical implication: several times during the session, the world's most
powerful heads of state were forced to wait around as the Chinese delegate went off to make telephone calls to his
"superiors".
Shifting the blame
To those who would blame Obama and rich countries in general, know this: it was China's representative who insisted
that industrialised country targets, previously agreed as an 80% cut by 2050, be taken out of the deal. "Why can't we
UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762860 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762860 Date: 06/30/2015

even mention our own targets?" demanded a furious Angela Merkel. Australia's prime minister, Kevin Rudd, was
annoyed enough to bang his microphone. Brazil's representative too pointed out the illogicality of China's position. Why
should rich countries not announce even this unilateral cut? The Chinese delegate said no, and I watched, aghast, as
Merkel threw up her hands in despair and conceded the point. Now we know why because China bet, correctly, that
Obama would get the blame for the Copenhagen accord's lack of ambition.
China, backed at times by India, then proceeded to take out all the numbers that mattered. A 2020 peaking year in
global emissions, essential to restrain temperatures to 2C, was removed and replaced by woolly language suggesting
that emissions should peak "as soon as possible". The long-term target, of global 50% cuts by 2050, was also excised. No
one else, perhaps with the exceptions of India and Saudi Arabia, wanted this to happen. I am certain that had the
Chinese not been in the room, we would have left Copenhagen with a deal that had environmentalists popping
champagne corks popping in every corner of the world.
Strong position
So how did China manage to pull off this coup? First, it was in an extremely strong negotiating position. China didn't
need a deal. As one developing country foreign minister said to me: "The Athenians had nothing to offer to the
Spartans." On the other hand, western leaders in particular but also presidents Lula of Brazil, Zuma of South Africa,
Caldenin of Mexico and many others were desperate for a positive outcome. Obama needed a strong deal perhaps
more than anyone. The US had confirmed the offer of $100bn to developing countries for adaptation, put serious cuts
on the table for the first time (17% below 2005 levels by 2020), and was obviously prepared to up its offer.
Above all, Obama needed to be able to demonstrate to the Senate that he could deliver China in any global climate
regulation framework, so conservative senators could not argue that US carbon cuts would further advantage Chinese
industry. With midterm elections looming, Obama and his staff also knew that Copenhagen would be probably their only
opportunity to go to climate change <http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/climate-change> talks with a strong
mandate. This further strengthened China's negotiating hand, as did the complete lack of civil society political pressure
on either China or India. Campaign groups never blame developing countries for failure; this is an iron rule that is never
broken. The Indians, in particular, have become past masters at co-opting the language of equity ("equal rights to the
atmosphere") in the service of planetary suicide and ieftish campaigners and commentators are hoist with their own
petard.
With the deal gutted, the heads of state session concluded with a final battle as the Chinese delegate insisted on
removing the 1.5C target so beloved of the small island states and low-lying nations who have most to lose from rising
seas. President Nasheed of the Maldives, supported by Brown, fought valiantly to save this crucial number. "How can
you ask my country to go extinct?" demanded Nasheed. The Chinese delegate feigned great offence and the number
stayed, but surrounded by language which makes it all but meaningless. The deed was done.
China's game
All this raises the question: what is China's game? Why did China, in the words of a UK-based analyst who also spent
hours in heads of state meetings, "not only reject targets for itself, but also refuse to allow any other country to take on
binding targets?" The analyst, who has attended climate conferences for more than 15 years, concludes that China
wants to weaken the climate regulation regime now "in order to avoid the risk that it might be called on to be more
ambitious in a few years' time".
This does not mean China is not serious about global warming. It is strong in both the wind and solar industries. But
China's growth, and growing global political and economic dominance, is based largely on cheap coal. China knows it is
becoming an uncontested superpower; indeed its newfound muscular confidence was on striking display in
Copenhagen. Its coal-based economy doubles every decade, and its power increases commensurately. its leadership will
not alter this magic formula unless they absolutely have to.
Copenhagen was much worse than just another bad deal, because it illustrated a profound shift in global geopolitics.
This is fast becoming China's century, yet its leadership has displayed that multilateral environmental governance is not
only not a priority, but is viewed as a hindrance to the new superpower's freedom of action. I left Copenhagen more
despondent than I have felt in a long time. After all the hope and all the hype, the mobilisation of thousands, a wave of
optimism crashed against the rock of global power politics, fell back, and drained away.

Re: any truth to this account? Sid

The writer was not only a correspondent for The Guardian there but also apparently was on the Maldives delegation
putting him in various rooms. The accounts from the conference have been very fragmentary, the administration has
explained very little (for whatever reasons and to its detriment), and it is being widely blamed internationally. The broader
lesson I draw from Chinese disrespect for the president (and US) on his trip (I've heard accounts from journalists), its
behavior at Copenhagen, mercantalist economic policy (eg, currency), and its rough use of and contempt for international
organizations, not to mention the strange form of Chinese neo-colonialism in Africa, is the need for policy review. Fear of
Chinese retribution (economy. Iran, etc) can't be allowed to paralyze reassessment, though it should be factored into
scenarios. The Europeans are being damaged worse by Chinese economic policy than us and China policy is a new area
for the Western alliance to consult on. Leaving it to Treasury apparently parks policy in a laissez faire twilight zone.
Treasury has been as effective on China as it has been on AIG. Just thoughts of an observer.

How do I know China wrecked the Copenhagen deal? I was in the room

As recriminations fly post-Copenhagen, one writer offers a fly-on-the-wall


account of how talks failed

Mark Lynas <http://www.:_guardin.co

ik/Tor

narklynas>

guardian.co.uk <http://www.guardian . co.uk> , Tuesday 22 December 2009


19.54 GMT

Copenhagen was a disaster. That much is agreed. But the truth about what
actually happened is in danger of being lost amid the spin and inevitable mutual
recriminations. The truth is this: China <http.//www.gua,dj.an.cc.uk/world/china>
wrecked the talks, intentionally humiliated Barack Obama, and insisted on an
awful "deal" so western leaders would walk away carrying the blame. How do I
know this? Because I was in the room and saw it happen.
China's strategy was simple: block the open negotiations for two weeks, and then
ensure that the closed-door deal made it lock as if the west had failed the
world's poor once again. And sure enough, the aid agencies, civil society
movements and environmental groups all took the bait. The failure was "the
inevitable result of rich countries refusing adequately and fairly to shoulder
their overwhelming responsibility", said Christian Aid. "Rich countries have
bullied developing nations," fumed Friends of the Earth International.
All very predictable, but the complete opposite of the truth. Even George
Monbiot, writing in yesterday's Guardian, made the mistake of singly blaming
.Obama. But I saw Obama fighting desperately to salvage a deal, and the Chinese
delegate saying "no", over and over again. Monbiot even approvingly quoted the
Sudanese delegate Lumumba Di-Aping, who denounced the Copenhagen accord as "a
suicide pact, an incineration pact, in order to maintain the economic dominance
of a few countries".

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762863 Date: 06/30/2015

Sudan behaves at the talks as a puppet of China; one of a number of countries


that relieves the Chinese delegation of having to fight its battles in open
sessions. It was a perfect stitch-up. China gutted the deal behind the scenes,
and then left its proxies to savage it in public.
Here's what actually went on late last Friday night, as heads of state from two
dozen countries met behind closed doors. Obama was at the table for several
hours, sitting between Gordon Brown and the Ethiopian prime minister, Meles
Zenawi. The Danish prime minister chaired, and on his right sat Ban Ki-moon,
secretary-general of the UN. Probably only about 50 or 60 people, including the
heads of state, were in the room. I was attached to one of the delegations,
whose head of state was also present for most of the time.
What I saw was profoundly shocking. The Chinese premier, Wen Jinbao, did not
deign to attend the meetings personally, instead sending a second-tier official
in the country's foreign ministry to sit opposite Obama himself. The diplomatic
snub was obvious and brutal, as was the practical implication: several times
during the session, the world's most powerful heads of state were forced to wait
around as the Chinese delegate went off to make telephone calls to his
"superiors".
Shifting the blame
To those who would blame Obama and rich countries in general, know this: it was
China's representative who insisted that industrialised country targets,
previously agreed as an 80% cut by 2050, be taken out of the deal. "Why can't we
even mention our own targets?" demanded a furious Angela Merkel. Australia's
prime minister, Kevin Rudd, was annoyed enough to bang his microphone. Brazil's
representative too pointed out the illouicality of China's position. Why should
rich countries not announce even this unilateral cut? The Chinese delegate said
no, and I watched, aghast, as Merkel threw up her hands in despair and conceded
the point. Now we know why - because China bet, correctly, that Obama would get
the blame for the Copenhagen accord's lack of ambition.
China, backed at times by India, then proceeded to take out all the numbers that
mattered. A 2020 peaking year in global emissions, essential to restrain

temperatures to 2C, was removed and replaced by woolly language suggesting that
emissions should peak "as soon as possible". The long-term target, of global 50%
cuts by 2050, was also excised. No one else, perhaps with the exceptions of
India and Saudi Arabia, wanted this to happen. I am certain that had the Chinese
not been in the room, we would have left Copenhagen with a deal that had
environmentalists popping champagne corks popping in every corner of the world.
Strong position
So how did China manage to pull off this coup? First, it was in an extremely
strong negotiating position. China didn't heed a deal. As one developing country
foreign minister said to me: "The Athenians had nothing to offer to the
Spartans." On the other hand, western leaders in particular - but also
presidents Lula of Brazil, Zuma of South Africa, Calderon of Mexico and many
others - were desperate for a positive outcome. Obama needed a strong deal
perhaps more than anyone. The US had confirmed the offer of $100bn to developing
countries for adaptation, put serious cuts on the table for the first time (17%
below 2005.1evels by 2020), and was obviously prepared. to up its offer.
Above all, Obama needed to be able to demonstrate to the Senate that he could
deliver China in any global climate regulation framework, so conservative
senators could not argue that US carbon cuts would further advantage Chinese
industry. With midterm elections looming, Obama and his staff also knew that
Copenhagen would be probably their only opportunity to go to climate change
<http:

fwww.guardian.co.uk/envirohment/climate change> talks with a strong

mandate. This further strengthened China's negotiating hand, as did the complete
lack of civil society political pressure on either China or India. Campaign
groups never blame developing countries for failure; this is an iron rule that
is never broken. The Indians, in particular, have become past masters at
co-opting the language of equity ("equal rights to the atmosphere") in the
service of planetary suicide - and leftish campaigners and commentators are
hoist with their own petard.
With the deal gutted, the heads of state session concluded with a final battle
as the Chinese delegate insisted on removing the 1.5C target so beloved of the

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762863 Date: 06/30/2015

small island states and low-lying nations who have most to lose from rising
seas. President Nasheed of the Maldives, supported by Brown, fought valiantly to
save this crucial number. "How can you ask my country to go extinct?" demanded
Nasheed. The Chinese delegate feigned great offence - and the number stayed, but
surrounded by language which makes it all but meaningless. The deed was done.
China's game
All this raises the question: what is China's game? Why- did China, in the words
of a UK-based analyst who also spent hours in heads of state meetings, "not only
reject targets for itself, but also refuse to allow any other country to take on
binding targets?" The analyst, who has attended climate conferences for more
than 15 years, concludes that China wants to weaken the climate regulation
regime now "in order to avoid the risk that it might be called on to be more
ambitious in a few years' time".
This does not mean China is not serious about global warming. It is strong in
both the wind and solar industries. But China's growth, and growing global
political and economic dominance, is based largely on cheap. coal. China knows it
is becoming an uncontested superpower; indeed its newfound muscular confidence
was on striking display in Copenhagen_ Its coal-based economy doubles every
decade, and its power increases commensurately. Its leadership will not alter
this magic formula unless they absolutely have to.
Copenhagen was much worse than just another bad deal, because it illustrated a
profound shift in global geopolitics. This is fast becoming China's century, yet
its leadership has displayed that multilateral environmental governance is not
only not a priority, but is viewed as a hindrance to the new superpower's
freedom of action. I left Copenhagen more despondent than I have felt in a long
time. After all the hope and. all the hype, the mobilisation of thousands, a wave
of optimism crashed against the rock of global power politics, fell back, and
drained away.

We had a little fun at today's briefing. Our friends in the media have been bugging us regarding your holiday plans, so
we announced your departure from Washington in the following way:

"...And finally, a few of you have asked about the schedule of the Secretary of State over the next few days. I can tell
you this morning the Secretary departed Washington and she stopped at the North Pole for an important bilateral
meeting with a well known international figure. During the meeting, in a formal demarche, sung to the tune of Twelve
Days of Christmas, the Secretary outlined her aspirations for the new year. They include, and feel free to hum along:
open and accountable governments, Middle East negotiations, more civilians in Afghanistan, empowerment of women,
fewer nuclear weapons, respect for human rights, resolution of historic grievances, treaties through the United States
Senate, Six-Party Talks, dialogue with Iran, enough food for people of the world to eat, climate change legislation, and
lastly, a championship for the Boston Red Sox. Okay, that last one's not on her list, but Harold Koh and I thought it was
important that we mention that here."

It is a privilege to be a part of your team. We wish you, the President and Chelsea all the best during the holiday season
and look forward to great achievements in 2010, with one tiny exception.

grandmother, Silvana. We have arranged for the party to enter directly into the building via the garage. The
grandmother announced to the press her intention to "park 3 blocks away, as the consulate would not allow her in" but
press are quoting the Embassy spokesperson Orna Blum flatly contradicting that statement, emphasizing that for Sean's
emotional well-being, and in sensitivity to Silvana and David, the reunion be safe, private, and calm.

Importance: High

It appears there will be no handover tonight. According to David's Brazilian attorney, the negotiators have broken
up, having not been able to agree on the issue of the Grandmother accompanying Sean to the U.S. on the plane (clearly,
the other side remains unaware of the source/nature of the charter flight that is pending a handover). We have
rebuffed attempts by the Brazilian family's attorney to "get clarification from the Americans" as an obvious last-ditch
ploy to once again present this as a U.S. vs Brazil issue. We have been clear to all parties that we the Mission have
absolutely no role in any negotiation between the parties and will not/not undertake any contact with the family or their
representatives.

Deadline for handover established by the President of the 2nd Regional Federal Court in Rio remains 9am Thursday
morning at the U.S. Consulate. Brazilian Central Authority confirms that the warrant authorizing enforcement of the
order has been issued and should be in the possession of law enforcement should the family not comply. BCA has
confirmed they will be in early tomorrow morning, ready to arrange enforcement should that be necessary. However,
David's attorney believes they will comply with the order and appear at the Consulate. We stand ready for multiple
scenarios.
In good news, the Brazilian Central Authority reported that the judge assigned to hear the two motions filed by
attorneys for the Brazilian family in the Superior Tribunal de Justica (STJ) has denied both motions on the merits, not just
refused to consider the motions. Links to the decisions for those who wish to read legal Portuguese are provided below.
The frequently-announced press conference by the Brazilian family/their attorney never materialized. We await
word on their next public relations foray.

Subject: RE: Goldman Decision - update as of 13:00 local time
Importance: High

I have just spoken with the Brazilian Central Authority regarding the orders imminently coming out of the office of the
President of the 2nd Regional Federal Court. He is evidently interpreting the lifting of the stay imposed at STF to mean
that the 48 hour period provided in the appellate court decision to the Brazilian family to turn over Sean to the
Consulate has started ticking again not restarted at the beginning, but resumed ticking. According to the Court, the
deadline for turnover at the Consulate falls at 6am local time on Thursday morning, December 24. Because of the early
hour, he will evidently order the family to turn over Sean at the consulate NO LATER than 9am on Thursday, December
24. However, he will also recommend, not order, that the family turn over Sean at the Consulate today/tonight in order
to permit him to travel to the U.S. on an overnight flight and spend Christmas with the family in the U.S.

There is current debate ongoing regarding the timing of the turnover. Daniel Levy of the AGU office in Rio will evidently
take the lead in negotiating that turnover, in conjunction with David's legal team.

Press contacts are stating that Sergio Tostes, the attorney for the Brazilian family, has called a press conference at 2pm
local time (11am DC time) to announce voluntary turnover. No further details on that yet.

Subject: Goldman Decision - update as of 10:30 local time
Importance: High

Good news this morning:


Brazilian Central Authority reports that at lam local time today, the attorney for the Brazilian family contacted
Daniel Levy, the AGU attorney representing the Brazilian Govt in this case, to inform him that the Brazilian family is
willing to arrange for voluntary turnover of Sean at the Consulate General in Rio. Daniel Levy reportedly replied that he
would only facilitate these discussions on the condition that there were no further legal machinations to delay
implementation of the court order, and that the turnover happened today. We do not/not know what if any conditions
the family will try to place on a voluntary handover, so planning for police execution of the court order continues.

Interpol office in Brasilia has assured BCA and the Embassy LEGAT that they are fully aware of the status of the
case and are ready to provide support if Sean is not turned over. They will have action if the family attempts to hide
Sean.
We have contacted WHA Press and CA Press separately to discuss timing to release statements if/when we are
successful with wheels up.
We have discussed detailed contingency plans should the police be called upon to go to the family residence to
enforce the order if voluntary handover does not occur. Also have plans in place to supplement personnel in Rio should
this extend past today.
We have a general sense of the timing of potential events: We expect to have more clarity from the attorneys as
to whether or not voluntary handover will occur around noon/1pm local time, which is 9/10 DC time. Should police
enforcement be required, that will likely mean mid/late afternoon local time. We will advise asap if this timeline shifts
(as it is likely to do, this being Brazil.)

Subject: RE: Goldman Decision - update as of 01:30 local time - NO RETURN TONIGHT
Importance: High

I have just heard from the team in Rio that there will be no return enforcement this evening:
Tomorrow morning between 8-9, David Goldman's Brazilian attorney will go to the court to obtain the warrant
enforcing the return of Sean Goldman to the U.S. He will wait there pending coordination with relevant police and
judicial authorities to ensure that everything is ready, and they will depart for the family compound to take custody of
Sean.
Consulate General Rio will have cars ready at 9am for transport, and the team will be ready at the airport to
facilitate departure.
David's attorney has spoken to judicial authorities and believes that the motions filed at ST1 will not be accepted by
the court, so will not interfere with the return. This does not preclude some last minute legal maneuvers, but he seems
confident that the decision by STF will effectively cut off other avenues. We will advise asap if this changes.

Blackberry service does appear to be down, so if there are any questions tonight, please contact me directly on my cell
at
as I am getting offline in approximately five mins. We are 3 hours ahead of DC time at the
moment, but please do not hesitate to call.

Subject: RE: Goldman Decision - update as of 00:45 local time

Given the hour here, I am less optimistic that we will pull off a return tonight, but we are still working to that end.

The Brazilian Central Authority confirms that the office of Regional Federal Court President Paulo Espirito Santo
has received the decision of STF President Gilmar Mendes. It is Paulo E-S who will be responsible for enforcing the
decision from Mendes, i.e. the return of Sean Goldman to the U.S.

BCA has promised to reinforce for Interpol the urgent necessity of police in Rio monitoring the location of Sean
Goldman. Embassy LEGAT office is double-tracking. We cannot, of course, ask them to enforce anything until the
proper judicial authority has sent them instructions, but we strongly urge them to be prepared.
BCA has turned over operational jurisdiction to Daniel Levy, from the AGU's office in Rio, to coordinate with David
Goldman's attorney and with the court in Rio. I have asked David's attorney to try and get some understanding from
Mr. Levy as to the timeline we can expect to see in this case.

What remains unclear:

We do not know if the judge from the Regional Federal Court intends to issue an execution order from his home
tonight at this late hour, or if he will wait until opening of business tomorrow morning. Note that 00B here generally
means 10am for a court. This only underscores the need to ensure that there is sufficient monitoring of Sean's
whereabouts.
We do not know how Judge Paulo E-S will interpret an "immediate" return order it could mean right this instant,
or it could mean some brief period of time where the family is ordered/encouraged to turn Sean over at the Consulate
or some other site.
We are working to obtain some sense of whether this is likely to happen tonight, or if we are better served getting
some rest now and starting first thing 00B which for us means 7-8am.
We have not had confirmation regarding the resolution of the motions in STJ, but frankly, I don't foresee receiving
an answer on that before mid-day Wednesday.

PLEASE NOTE I am aware of the intense interest back in DC about this case and will be passing information just as soon
as I receive it. This means that in most cases, I will not be able to confirm the information. Will try to identify credible
sources vice what rumor/press/others are saying.

Brazilian Central Authority (BCA) coordinating with David's attorney and the Federal attorneys in Rio to ensure that the
President of the Regional Federal Court in Rio has a copy of the STF order and is submitting the official request to federal
police to enforce. BCA says they still believe they can effect the turnover tonight and are at their office working to that
end. If/when the Federal Police enforce, their stated preference is to go to the airport and effect the handover there.
This is a scenario we've planned for.

BCA has mentioned the STJ motions filed by the Brazilian family as a potential obstacle, but thru their contacts in
Mendes' office at STF, have heard that Mendes intends to reach out to the reporting judge at STJ to resolve that issue.
As mentioned in an earlier update today, we have not had any confirmation that the STJ judge has accepted to hear the
motions filed by the Brazilian family, and has the option to decline to hear them.

If the family sees the writing on the wall (frankly unlikely at this point) and agrees to abide by the order of immediate
return, then in theory the handover would happen at the consulate and there is a plan in place for that.

Plans in motion to prevent them slipping away and Patricia Lamego is working with the police as we speak. Federal
Police repeatedly assured us they were prepped and ready to move but could take no action absent an order. They
know now there is one, so BCA will get them moving.

If the handover occurred tonight, I'm told we need 3 hours to get the plane off the ground, so overnight in the hotel.

But if handover is delayed until morning, the family may try to slip away tonight. Can we ask the police to prevent that?

Importance: High

Here is what we know:

STF Pres. Gilmar Mendes upheld the motion by the AGU and David's attorney requesting he overturn the stay
imposed by Justice Marco Aurelio, based upon a motion filed by the maternal grandmother.
The order at first read appears to require immediate return of Sean.
The BCA is calling the Interpol director responsible for enforcing such actions to see if they will get set to move.
HOWEVER, BCA does not/not yet have a copy of the order, and it is the judge in the lower court in Rio that would
generally receive the order from STF and then contact DPF to enforce.
Sergio Brito, the prosecutor who has assisted David's attorney on the Hague case is attempting to contact the
judge in the court of first instance in an effort to move as quickly as possible. Note that the court of first instance is on
recess and the "duty court" judge will need to take action, but magistrates in Rio are keenly aware of the status of the
case and may be prepared to move this evening.
BCA is hoping to effect handover tonight, and will plan to send their psychologist to Rio if the handover must
happen tomorrow morning.

I thought I would share this heartfelt message from Patricia Lamego de Teixeira Soares, the head of Brazil's Central
Authority, the office responsible for Hague Convention abduction cases. You will see that in spite of our efforts to
protect the son, the Brazilian family chose to make a spectacle outside the Consulate this morning by parading Sean
through a crowd. Ms. Lamego recently visited the U.S. where she met with members of Congress and others to explain
all that the Brazilian Central Authority was doing to reunite Sean and his father under the Hague Convention. The
delays we saw in this case were largely the result of a wealthy, well connected family able to influence court decisions.

We are all relieved and thrilled to see this long overdue but very happy ending. I should also highlight the amazing
work done by US Mission Brazil. The consular staff, Charge, Acting DCM (Marie Damour, the Consul General in Brasilia),
LegATT, RSO, and a host of others all played a role in this successful return. My OCS DAS, Michele Bond, and her
dedicated team also played a big role in communicating with David, his lawyers, Congress, and the press. We had
Members of Congress, former Assistant Secretaries and US Ambassadors all pitching in. While there were
disagreements at times over tactics, we all agreed that we were working towards the same goal: the safe return of
Sean.

We particularly appreciate the strong support from the Secretary. Many people will try to take credit for today's happy
reunion but it was the Secretary's continued concern and interest in this case that made the difference. We could not
have provided a better gift to David Goldman during this season of giving.

Dear All,

The Goldman case finally came to an end, and despite the efforts of all involved the hand over of the child to the US
Consulate in Rio was transformed into a deplorable display of the child walking in the streets with the maternal family,
being exposed to the media and to the public that surrounded the consulate.

I'm sorry this had to happen but it seems that Mr. Sergio Tostes, the maternal family's attorney, did not feel at all
embarrased to use and expose the child, who was probably under severe stress, in order to gather support for his
position. This most despicable man is not accepting the fact that, despite his life long relationships with influential
authorities in Brazil, he was unable to win the case and Sean is finally being reunited with his only real father.

I just hope that David and the Goldman family find enough time to recover their lives and their relationship with Sean.
They need time more than anything else and now it is up to the US government to guarantee that David Goldman will

Brazilian press, he will "fight to defend the child".

Please allow David Goldman to live in peace with his son and have the life that he deserves after fighting so much for so
many years.

In my name and in the name of all the staff of the Brazilian Central Authority I wish David, Sean, and their family all the

And to all of you who worked so much in support of this case, our deepest gratitude. We wish you all a Merry Christmas
and a very Happy New Year.

Thanks for flagging this. We actually saw this last night, and Vikram and I had a conversation with Richard about it. The
report was based on interviews conducted in May-June, before the new policy change was implemented, so much of the
report is already OBE. OIG gave us the draft report in October, and SRAP/SCA/INL immediately sent a joint response to
OIG (attached), highlighting that we were already working on many of the issues highlighted in the report.

Given the change in policy and our letter to them, we found it pretty egregious that the OIG didn't report on the changes
underway or adjustments already made, as the report is being portrayed in the press as currently applicable. Michael
Keays on the Afghan desk and Peggy, who both help to oversee CN issues, are already working on a letter to OIG
expressing our strong concern about the report and the process which got us to this point, and Vikram and his team are
ginning up press points which also note that we have already begun to robustly address many of these points (I've cc'ed
them all on this).

If you'd like to talk further, I'm happy to come up to your office at some point this morning to discuss.

I thought I would share this heartfelt message from Patricia Lamego de Teixeira Soares, the head of Brazil's Central
Authority, the office responsible for Hague Convention abduction cases. You will see that in spite of our efforts to
protect the son, the Brazilian family chose to make a spectacle outside the Consulate this morning by parading Sean
through a crowd. Ms. Lamego recently visited the U.S. where she met with members of Congress and others to explain
all that the Brazilian Central Authority was doing to reunite Sean and his father under the Hague Convention. The
delays we saw in this case were largely the result of a wealthy, well connected family able to influence court decisions.

We are all relieved and thrilled to see this long overdue but very happy ending. I should also highlight the amazing
work done by US Mission Brazil. The consular staff, Charge, Acting DCM (Marie Damour, the Consul General in Brasilia),
LegATT, RSO, and a host of others all played a role in this successful return. My OCS DAS, Michele Bond, and her
dedicated team also played a big role in communicating with David, his lawyers, Congress, and the press. We had
Members of Congress, former Assistant Secretaries and US Ambassadors all pitching in. While there were
disagreements at times over tactics, we all agreed that we were working towards the same goal: the safe return of
Sean.

We particularly appreciate the strong support from the Secretary. Many people will try to take credit for today's happy
reunion but it was the Secretary's continued concern and interest in this case that made the difference. We could not
have provided a better gift to David Goldman during this season of giving.

Dear All,
UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762996 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762996 Date: 06/30/2015

The Goldman case finally came to an end, and despite the efforts of all involved the hand over of the child to the US
Consulate in Rio was transformed into a deplorable display of the child walking in the streets with the maternal family,
being exposed to the media and to the public that surrounded the consulate.

I'm sorry this had to happen but it seems that Mr. Sergio Tostes, the maternal family's attorney, did not feel at all
embarrased to use and expose the child, who was probably under severe stress, in order to gather support for his
position. This most despicable man is not accepting the fact that, despite his life long relationships with influential
authorities in Brazil, he was unable to win the case and Sean is finally being reunited with his only real father.

I just hope that David and the Goldman family find enough time to recover their lives and their relationship with Sean.
They need time more than anything else and now it is up to the US government to guarantee that David Goldman will
not have to face the maternal family once again in the US courts where, according to Mr. Tostes last declaration to the
Brazilian press, he will "fight to defend the child".

Please allow David Goldman to live in peace with his son and have the life that he deserves after fighting so much for so
many years.

In my name and in the name of all the staff of the Brazilian Central Authority I wish David, Sean, and their family all the
best and a most happy life once they are finally back in the United States.

And to all of you who worked so much in support of this case, our deepest gratitude. We wish you all a Merry Christmas
and a very Happy New Year.

Best regards,

Patricia Lamego T. Soares

Dear Cheryl,

I want you to know that last month a friend of mine convinced me to apply for a fellowship at Harvard/Institute of
Politics, and I did. A few days ago, I got a call from the Program Director who informed me that I was accepted. I am very
excited about it and think it will be a very good opportunity to share my experience
with students who
are learning theories about democracy and development.
Cheryl, I am going to be bold and ask you if you would accept my invitation to come and speak to the students while I
am there. I am asked and encouraged to invite important personalities who can talk of their experience in government
and I thought of you. I would be thrilled if you accept. I will be there from end of January until the beginning of May next
year. I have also invited President Moreno of IDB who accepted and I am waiting for an answer from Michaelle Jean, the
General Governor of Canada.
I wish you the very best, to you and your family for Christmas and the New Year. I hope our roads cross again as we
thrive to better the lives of so many people who deserve it. Please extend my wished to the Secretary of State. I admire
her and her work.
Warm regards,
Michele

ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Taliban insurgents had planned to use five Americans, now detained in Pakistan, who had
contacted the militants via the Internet, to carry out attacks in the U.S.-allied country, a police official said. Usman
Anwar, police chief in Sargodha, where the men were arrested this month, said emails had revealed plans for the young
men from Virginia to travel to a Pakistani nuclear power plant. "We believe that they were supposed to be used inside
Pakistan," Anwar told Reuters by telephone. "In their last email to the Taliban, we found they mentioned the Chashma
Nuclear Plant and that's why they were going to Mianwali (district)."

I thought the argument they made yesterday about the human rights speech was either deliberately obtuse or clueless.
Either way, we need to respond and refute. Can you have a response drafted and sent to me? Also, I'd like to see a

favorable. In a series of meetings we have had with the democracy and human rights groups, the response has been

That would be more than fine. I appreciate you even looking to see if this may work.
On another note I wanted to send congratulations to you on the announcement of your daughters engagement. I know
you are proud of her and rightfully so.
Also I had dinner last night with a mutual friend of ours, Sen Lindsay Graham. Lindsay always talks how much he likes
you and said if I were to be in contact with you to say hi from him.
Stay well and I look forward to hearing and seeing you soon.
All my best,
Terry

Madam SecretaryI hope you, the President and Chelsea had a great Thanksgiving. Hopefully things will wind down and you'll be able to
spend some time with your family. As you know, I'm being honored by the American Friends of the Hebrew University
on Thursday, March 11, 2010. I'd be so honored if you would consider being the keynote speaker. I've had some
correspondence with Lona in your office and she indicated you may have a better idea of your 2010 calendar in early
November. It would mean the world to me if you could do it, but if not I completely understand.
I look forward to seeing you soon.

Subject: Posner response to Washington Post editorial
Philippe and Jake asked me to send along this response to the Washington Post editorial:

By Michael Posner

The Post's Dec. 27 editorial ("Redefining Human Rights") on the Obama Administration's human rights and democracy
policies, and Secretary Clinton's recent speech at Georgetown in particular, misses the critical point: human rights,
democracy, and development are mutually reinforcing, not competing goals. They complement each other in the task of
making human rights a human reality.

President Roosevelt understood the fundamental link between liberty, prosperity and security, tying together freedom
of speech and worship with freedom from want and freedom from fear in his-famous "Four Freedoms" speech. At
Georgetown, Secretary Clinton articulated a 21st century vision grounded in this wisdom.

To accuse Secretary Clinton of embracing a Soviet-bloc approach to human rights because she includes development in a
discussion of democracy not only strains the bonds of credulity and common sense, it also walls off a crucial avenue for
ensuring that people can actually exercise the rights that are naturally theirs - including the rights to freedom of religion,
association, and speech-in their daily lives.

As Secretary Clinton made clear, policies that address development alone are not adequate: "Freedom doesn't come in
half measures, and partial remedies will not solve the whole problem," she said. But experience shows us that where
broad-based development occurs, people are more likely to demand a say in securing their futures, and governments
are more likely to have the resources to maintain the strong institutions, including reliable police and fair courts, that
help ensure the consistent protection of rights. Where people are given the right to speak freely, to participate in their
nation's political process and have access to basic information about government, sustainable development is more

likely to occur. At the same time, democracies without development do not last. These are mutually reinforcing tracks,
and the Obama Administration is committed to pursuing both simultaneously.

As President Obama said in his Nobel lecture, "engagement with repressive regimes lacks the satisfying purity of
indignation." But the Post's overheated outrage ignores the lessons learned by generations of men and women who
worked to advance human rights around the world.

To suggest that Secretary Clinton somehow provided excuses to rights-abusing dictators in a speech in which she
forcefully criticized specific abuses across the world, is simply not credible. Far from being an excuse for any regime, this
is an approach that pushes governments to do more to advance civil and political rights and to ensure that democracy
actually delivers a measure of prosperity and opportunity for all. That is the right approach for the Obama
Administration and for the 21st century.

I spoke w Chairman of the Newseum and there will be no cost for S speech on 21st. They're honored to host. The Chair is
the CEO of the Knight Foundation and if the event requires sponsorship for it to be free they will sponsor. Whatever our
legal regs are, Newseum and/or Knight will accommodate.
