i quote, the people in germany suffer under the division of germany. they suffer because of a war which expands in the powers and not from each other. if we can dismantle what divides people, then we will actually be meeting the desires of the german people. they want to reach out to each other because they belong together, end of quotation. these words of the federal chancellor helmut kohl gave us hope in the german democratic republic. the civil movement in poland and other european countries gave us courage in german democratic republic. many people dared to take to the streets to demonstrate for freedom and they managed to bring the wall down. helmut kohl was the one who wanted unity as others were still hesitating or even disagreeing. he started work on smoothing the path towards unity but always taking into account the thoughts and reservations of our neighbors to deep european conviction and the confidence that people had in him throughout the world meant that he was able to allay people's fears and worries about a reunified germany. and that wi

germany is saying you cannot arrest people in germany if they have not committed a crime. these things need to be investigated. turkey seems to doubt whether germany is still an ally. germany is turning this around a bit and saying, do we really want to be your partner? what is going to happen in the future? which way is turkey going to turn? there is a limited control germany has over this, the e.u. has potentially over this, but we are expecting some can create measures to come out when germany's foreign minister will hold a statement. brent: we know there is a general election coming up in germany in september. the german chancellor -- is she going to come under fire for how she is handling this with turkey? michaela: there was a bit of criticism earlier in the week, but the social democrats also felt this is such a strategic relationship that it is really important. that cannot be put on the line. now, the german chancellor has reacted herself. she has said enough is enough, called for the release of this latetest incident, this latest case, but also of deniz yucel, wh

how has that changed the fabric of germany as we know it? and how might that be contributing to higher tensions? >> i think it's contributed to a fracturing of germany where people are sick of it. they realize that this is not a policy that they can sustain. they can't sustain it economically, and they can't sustain it socially. when people come in who are not interested in learning the language, the culture, and assimilating into their host country, it does create extraordinary problems, and we've seen everything from, you know, all kinds of uprising among some of the immigrants, crime, terrorism activities. i doubt angela merkel is the most popular person in her own country right now because of it. trish: i think angela merkel might be facing political challenges because people are so concerned about their safety now in germany in a way that they previously didn't need to be. just the reality of having all of these new people that have not assimilated with that culture. we showed our viewers many times, and you've seen them as well right h

first go to germany. all my family are german. he is thinking that germany, europe. what can i say. they are working for germany. they don't want [ inaudible ] you have to invest and france. if you invest you can make also a public expense system. if you make it without investments. and i am afraid that you will not have the support of germany. and we say french german friendship, but this friendship is only working for germany. it is not working for europe. >> thank you. hey guys thank youso much for joining us. i appreciate your listening. i will tell you , we are in our summer shows. we will play the shows back but what we want you to do is visit our website at www.armstrongwilliams.com. it will tell you when these rear and it will tell you where they will enter. thank you so much for joining us. we want to thank our guests and production team. have a great day. >>> good morning. i'm nick watt in for kendis gibson. >>> president trump is ramping up his attacks on the news media, even some republicans saying a doctored video went too far and could incite violence. >>> iraqi and u.

this was in west germany. you will notice that these guys don't seem to be wearing uniforms, that is because they are not. is aweapon right there german machine gun. airborne operations, just like you guys down there, the unit did airborne operations not because they thought they would have to use them to keep up the qualifications was easier than having to retrain them later. you never know when a mission might come up later. you see some of the names down european, the lieutenant colonel was a polish immigrant in the united states, he served with general gavin. he came back as a unit commander. anybody would recognize the sky as a non-airborne qualified sugar -- soldier. these are overseas stripes. also, small unit operations required using small airplanes. the airplane was actually based out of berlin. setting down on short airstrips, anyplace, anytime. what they look like. they are still carrying american weapons. this was an interesting story. that the time government started using small nuclear weapons a

east germany. in 1955, the berlin commander , who had with its allies a total of about 12,000 troops in the small city. whoops. rhonda. -- wrong button. of course, the divided city of berlin 110 miles behind the curtain. they decided that instead of having a defensive mission, he thought he should have an offensive mission. 12,000 u.s. and allied troops surrounded by someone in the neighborhood of one million russian and east german troops. fair odds. he requested sabotage teams from his commander in west germany and the commander in west , germany decided that was probably not a bad idea not quite exactly what the berlin commander requested. instead, he gave him six special forces teams who would instead of just being sent in, they would be there permanently. stationed in the american sector and their mission would be to prepare for unconventional warfare in that one area that the u.s. forces had not planned for. that was east germany. 1956, the first six teams go up there and this unit would stay

because we have most violence of such magnitude demonstrations in germany in recent years. there were apparently some who acted ruthlessly and destructively against police forces and also against the property of ordinary citizens. well german police were out in force but over twenty eight thousand of them struggle to contain protesters with hundreds of officers left injured security forces in hamburg faced criticism for failing to cope with the chaos of the rallies this video shows violent protesters in black. shirts a fireworks show with a party no sign of any police officers to contain the mark. well images of burning cars on the streets a wash with debris still left local shocked international media outlets echoed some thoughts these are the headlines that they came up with chancellor merkel condemned the violence while many german politicians stressed that the left wing radical protests had simply been underestimated. the insensitive i don't want him to eat. a indecent talking to skits funds if it's him if you don't get tough in this fall tell each shelfs that let's kee

and what was then west germany. he died in june of 1987 when his program was established in his name. his goal is to strengthen the understanding between two powerful western allies, seldom more relevant than it is today here the importance of the relationship was front and center in berlin 30 years ago the summer. it was there that resident ronald reagan delivered one of his most memorable speeches. he recalled a tear down the wall that divided the post-world war ii world. and appealed to our common humanity and freedom and dignity. it is a call that should be trumpeted again today. we're fortunate to have with us today to talk about speech through -- three of the most knowledgeable people of the moment. the ambassador onstage in berlin, with present reagan, also a trustee of the program. peter robinson, a white house speechwriter and had riemer responsibility for the speech. and the former deputy editor who wrote a book on it and will moderate today's conversations. i will hand it to them. thank you.

more and more young girls are coming to germany as refugees. some of them have been forced to marry in the camps on the way. around 1400 married minor girls were registered last year in germany, one out of four under the age of fourteen. the true number is thought to be even higher. >> mahmoud and his wife fled to germany from a village in syria. they don't understand what the debate is about. mahmoud's wife was underage when they married. mahmoud is reluctant to speak openly about it. >> getting married young is unusual in germany, but it's normal for us. my whole family - my mother, aunts, grandmother - they all got married very young. that may be unusual here, but we want to live with our traditions. >> but the refugees' traditions clash with german law. human rights organizations argue that protecting children takes precedence over religious or cultural traditions. >> traditions are important, but they mustn't violate human rights. if they do, the german state has to invoke the law and take adequate measures to protect these girls. concerni

this was germany's first republic. fragile and it would be racked from within as hitler comes into power as you said ever having the popular vote. i think that was one thing that we see here. there was a statistician in the 1920s that reviewed the many cases of the german legal system like 1919 up to 1922 and 350 plus right-wing suspects. the vast majorities are going to be led off with basically a slap on the wrist and if you compare it to the suspects on the left on the other hand which were far fewer. i have a lot of this in the book and you can see where they would have much harsher sentences, 10 to 12 years much more than the far right. the german historian for example talked about how this legal system, this wellspring for the rise of the third reich because of the legal system. there are wonderful books you can read and i will refer you to if you know how develops from the age of bismarck. from the weimar and when hitler comes in the people's court is the institution in munich at the time and hitler will be grea
