>> charlie: welcome to our program. tonight, the crisis in syria with rob malley. >> the army, per se, i suspect where we might see the first cracks, the first signs of people refusing to shoot, perhaps people laying down their arms. again, that may be happening as we speak but because there is a dearth of credible information we just don't know, but that's one of those questions the regime itself must be asking. can we count on the loyalty of these troops if we're asking them to shoot their brethren? >> charlie: the tribeca film festival in new york with actor robert de niro and producer jane rosenthal. >> we touched on doing a film festival, and then after 9/11 we talked about it more seriously and thought why not? it would be something good for the city, the neighborhood. >> what we wanted to do was to bring people back downtown after 9/11 and to give the community a new memory, so we just persevered. we asked all our friends and neighbors, and we actually talked to a lot of the studios and said, "we've all fallen in

i went the other direction. >> charlie: bringing that down. >> yes. >> charlie: okay. >> sometimes, you know, it takes a while to calibrate how to get -- >> charlie: cal -- calibrate what we're looking for. >> it's a big theatre, you see. there's people in the back row. you might not see -- of course not. the power of the words certainly alone would not have done it in that case would they. >> his conviction is so extreme, his energy towards, his absolute arrogance toward his fidelity to his mistakes, do you know what i mean. that's what's so great about it. >> charlie: it's great to see you. measure to have you here. >> thank you. >> charlie: you're going out to do the show. >> good to see you. >> thank you for having us. >> charlie: thank you for joining us. see you next time.

>> charlie: welcome to our program. the question tonight is there a new evolving obama foreign policy as a consequence of the arab spring. we talked to ryan lizza of the ne yorker magazine. >> if th utedtates has gone to militarily intervene in another muslim country, it should really do it in a way that downs plays our involvement. it should do it in a way where they were pushing from the back. they were pushing the actors in front. so we want the arab league to support the intervention and the arab league did. we want the un to support the intervention which the obama administration got to do. that is my understanding of leading from behind means, means that the united states doesn't have to beat its chest. >> charlie: with the 150th anniversary of the beginning of the civil war in april, we talked to jon meacham about the three-volume history of the civil war by shelby foote. >> what he did was take history that is too often a series of dates and a series of names, and make you feel it. and at its best, that's what g

welcome. >> health low, charlie. how are you. >> charlie: tell me what's going on in your country especially after this weekend and what i expected based on the last time i saw you would be a transition from to a democracy overseen by the military. >> we're still in this transition but we're hoping for a much more smoother transition. we were hoping for a much more let's say faster recovery so things are improving on the economical side day to day life. but unfortunately the syndrome of the square is still on. there's a lot of energy and capacity going towards revenge from the past instead of building the future. i am more concerned about the future because as you understand it, it principle cull scene very well in egypt, in the most we had two major polls. the national party which was the mubarak party and son. and the movement were allowed to operate in various manner. however they were always wide disciplined in their fleets and their members. but they were operating like say semi officially. now after the dismant

>> not much, charlie. i know that dialogue is ongoing on and off with the youth, but not really with other-- with other people. i had only one meeting with the military council since they came to power. i have been calling that they need to be transparent. they need to reach out. you need to share power with the civilians. it's one thing being the military, and we have full respect for the role in protecting the revolution, and underpinning, eventual leash the civil nature of the state. but as a ruler, as a political ruler right now, they need to reach out. they need to be open for citizens, and that's not really happening. it's in a way very much an opaque political process right now. the government is not fully empowered as it should be. it should be a national salvation government. so we are still going through terrible times, charlie. >> rose: what role do you want to play? >> i want badly to see egypt moving finally to the 21st century, catching up with the rest of the world, not talking about extremi
