Were put under house arrest after words at one of who's been released.

But who organist remain in danger.

If what if women if the United States lays a minute there I think a symbolic that the secretary treasuries they're secretary -- -- -- -- -- big you know big -- since.

If they are wheels up and they have left them behind out of the idea that this should that this is some sort -- -- you can apply the label.

And they don't let him leave have we hung him out to dry -- that.

Yes I think it's terrible the that what what should have been negotiated -- that he and his family and and I -- and the people who assisted him it was just a few people who were able -- if they want to leave the question is of course he does wanna be able to go back to China and as you are saying you know why -- they want him I feel the same way he's very effective you know he's really given a very hard time he's used this and he's a self taught lawyer and he's useless blog agreed to challenge the government hunt things is that they're probably happy to get rid of him I think he probably wants -- be able to go back to continue to challenge the Chinese Government.

-- of course -- -- Sammy gets sent to -- -- -- and his friends his relatives and expands our clients why this man -- and and I as I look around the world wind back you know we were actually quite proactive in this we will what I own data and McCarty didn't show up in the game which -- a big difference we.

There are other places the world -- we don't interfere and of course my serve a cause of these days is it's -- Sudan and and a horrible genocide going that we don't go there because we don't go and other people's countries.

But why why this man and and that others in China or thousands of others around the world -- I think China's.

Different as we do have -- this relationship with Thomas a much stronger relationship obviously you have the secretary of state over their meeting with some.

-- we do have a little more leverage there and a little warmer relationship but why hand and it's done.

Very -- as having -- once again US embassy get pushed out you Marty you -- -- -- lay down your cards right exactly you know I mean you can't look that look what's so problematic about this is that the United States house to stand for freedom in the house to stand for human rights.

And if somebody goes to the type of escape this man this blind man goes through this miraculous escape.

It gets to the US embassy there has to be a safe place -- next clue what is right mind would have allowed that to happen without getting his wife and children -- -- negative in this understands it.

I think it's put everything is executed so well because it's amazing got a pretty blind out of his house.

But doing the world didn't think this went through and got well what about his mother what about his brother what about his wife and why children that you couldn't have had -- -- know the wife and children are under house -- also there's no way to get them all out I'm sure the hope was he would get there and that they would then negotiate -- -- would be reunited because that actually happens.

Under the first George Bush with -- Tiananmen square leader.

You got to the embassy and they've negotiated to Kendrick just Kissinger actually did it negotiated to get the whole family together and -- -- the United States kitchen thank.
