I think this is why the story is so important because it answers to both genders not because people run around naked. The Greeks were naked all the time by the way, I thought we was going for a little realism I just didn''t realise that I was the only one doing it. Diane helped me out. It was time for the guys to get theirs I guess. But that is why I think the story is so important because it answers the masculinity and the femininity."

And they have had an amazing adventure and have made many friends here. Our son has friends here now so that was why. And also we just love this part of the world.

So I usually am in Washington and depending on where we can be now because of travel restrictions and the new baby but I may be able to make it to Washington, if not I'll be delivering a statement from Los Angeles. But just a statement of hope and I hope that people stay focussed on all the refugees in the world and hope that they continue to give them to the aid and support that they need."

So by that sheer will alone it will happen."

Katrina was certainly an indictment that we can do better, and I think that's what this was born from."

11. SOUNDBITE (english) Brad Pitt:

"When I think about it, the better question is, what do the people think about it? My personal opinions from visiting here for a few days is, again, it's a bit shocking, it's a bit disturbing. The people have not received the money yet, and that's the fact. Ostensibly it's on it's way but it's not there yet, and people are caught in this limbo, people who want to reclaim their communities are caught in this limbo of not knowing will they receive enough restitution to even rebuild or to get their house to meet Fema standards; will the schools be there, will hospitals be there, will their neighbours be there, are their communities going to be there, so there's a lot of limbo, a pervasive feeling of just of like there's little direction. Except for this will that I talk about, this will, this spirit, and people seem very very determined so it's a positive side at the same time."

MAN ARRESTED AT PREMIERE SAYS HE NEVER HIT PITT

The ex-journalist who was arrested after jostling with actor Brad Pitt at a film premiere last week said Monday (2 JUNE 2014) he was merely trying to give the actor a hug and didn't mean him any harm.

Vitalii Sediuk, a former Ukrainian television reporter, said he was in a fan area of the event that was open to the public when he went in to give the actor a hug. Sediuk, 25, has gained a reputation for outlandish pranks on red carpets in Moscow, Los Angeles and last month, at the Cannes Film Festival when he crawled underneath America Ferrera's dress at a film screening.

His contact with Pitt, which caused the actor to lose balance while he was signing autographs at the "Maleficent" film premiere on Wednesday, led to Sediuk's arrest. He spent two days in jail before pleading no contest to battery and unlawful activity at a sporting or entertainment event and was sentenced Friday to three years of probation and a year's worth of psychiatric counseling.

"I'm a normal guy," Sediuk said. "I'm not crazy."

The native of Boryspil, Ukraine said he initially wasn't near the front of the fan area where Pitt was signing autographs last week, but saw paparazzi leave one area and headed for it. He said he stood on a metal railing and reached over to give Pitt a hug, toppling onto the carpet area as security grabbed him.

Sediuk, who hugged the legs of Bradley Cooper at the January Screen Actors Guild Awards, said the primary purpose for his pranks is entertainment. "I'm doing this for fun," he said.

He avoided a similar stunt at the "Maleficent" premiere because he said he knew children would be at the event.

Sediuk has been fired by the Ukrainian television station 1+1 and said he does not know what his next steps will be. He said he intends to spend the next few months focusing on fulfilling his sentence in the Pitt incident, which include community service and a restraining order preventing him from going near Hollywood events.

He said he would like to remain in the entertainment field, working as a movie director or appearing in a reality show, and would continue work as a journalist - if anyone will hire him.

Sediuk said he wouldn't give up pranks, but knew that his days of getting close to celebrities in Hollywood were at an end. Any future stunts would be done legally, he said, and "in a polite way."

He also said he wants to clear his name and not be known as the man who attacked Brad Pitt.

"I never hit, I never punched, I never slapped Brad Pitt in the face," he said. "This is absolutely false information."

Sediuk said he wanted Pitt to address it and dispute initial reports that he had been hit in the face. Pitt hasn't commented on the incident, but information that Sediuk struck the actor initially came from police. "It is something that hurts not only me, but also my family," Sediuk said.

He said his antics should lead stars and event organizers to reconsider their security procedures.

"Don't get offended at me. Don't get mad at me. And just to be thankful that I show it's easy to get access to you and maybe you have to tighten security," Sediuk said. He said celebrities should be cautious when talking to fans. "Obviously, I don't want to say, 'Don't talk to fans.' But (be) cautious."

"I leaned down right away. It was a little bit high in my position. I leaned down with my hands and I was pulled by security right away, wrestled to the floor. And that's it. As I say, I never, I never hit, I never punched, I never slapped Brad Pitt in the face. And this is absolutely false information. It's something that hurts not only me, but my family."

7. SOUNDBITE (English) Vitalii Sediuk, on his disappointment with actor Brad Pitt:

"Brad Pitt is a guy -- as I say, I love him as an actor -- but it's very upsetting that Brad Pitt didn't come out with a statement and say, 'This guy didn't punch me.' That would be very helpful, because he obviously knew the truth. He was there. And I assumed he knew the media coverage, me as a horrible person and monster -- not a monster, but an attacker who punched. It's very, very risky manner for journalists. I know a lot of people say I'm a 'journalist' and laugh. But me, as a journalist, have an experience -- not many, but four years. I say, 'Whatever you say, every single word should be proved by footage, video or something.' You cannot say anything. So, if you talk about a punch in a fight, please show me that picture. If we talk about broken sunglasses, show me that picture."

"So, I am a normal guy. I am not crazy. I do this for entertainment, but we can make a lot of stories out of one simple incident, or a prank. Entertainment industry can make it look entertainment. Serious news can talk about security, about access and celebrity, about giving credential to media outlets. So there's so much we can talk about the prank, and why I do it. But, as I say: My primary purpose is entertainment, fun and, obviously, not hating, offending someone, or putting in a crazy position."

PRANKSTER IS FORMER JOURNALIST

A Ukranian man who was arrested after police said he rushed and touched Brad Pitt at the premiere of the Angelina Jolie movie "Maleficent" is a former journalist with a history of getting too close to celebrities.

Vitalii Sediuk was jailed on Wednesday (28MAY14) on suspicion of misdemeanor battery at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood and was held in lieu of $20,000 bail, police said.

Sediuk has previously crossed the line with celebrities, most recently rushing America Ferrara on a red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival and crawling under her dress.

In 2014 he attached himself to Bradley Cooper's leg on the red carpet, and he crashed the 2013 Grammy Awards and was arrested after he went onstage and grabbed a microphone before Adele accepted an award. He pleaded no contest to trespassing and remains on probation.

In 2012, Will Smith slapped Sediuk after he tried to kiss him after Smith greeted him while doing interviews at a film premiere, and he drew Madonna's ire a year earlier by presenting her a bouquet of flowers.

In the latest incident, Sediuk is accused of jumping over a barrier in a fan area and rushing at Pitt along the red carpet, touching him briefly before security guards wrestled Sediuk away in handcuffs.Police could only confirm that he made contact with Pitt and could not classify it further. Pitt was apparently unhurt and resumed signing autographs before walking into the theater.

Sediuk worked for Ukrainian television channel 1+1 before he was recently fired, station general director Oleksandr Tkachenko said. No further details were provided.

Jolie stars in "Maleficent," Disney's new live-action spin on its animated classic "Sleeping Beauty."

Attorney Anthony Willoughby, who represented Sediuk in the Grammy trespassing case, said he will likely represent the former journalist if any new charges are filed.

The latest incident might constitute a violation of Sediuk's probation, the lawyer said.

"He's not a violent individual," Willoughby said. "He's an easygoing young man."

Christa Scherck, a publicist who worked with Sediuk for the past two years, said she was severing ties with him after his arrest. She said she was never aware of his prank plans.

"This goes beyond pranking," she said. "This is no longer entertaining."

Before the incident, Jolie said the El Capitan is like a local theater for her, Pitt and their kids, who usually don't attend premieres but were present on Wednesday night. Sediuk got to Pitt despite security that was heavy for a movie premiere, with guards keeping a large gap between the stars and the crowd.

Email messages left for representatives of Pitt and Disney were not immediately returned.

FOR JOLIE, 'MALEFICENT' PREMIERE A FAMILY AFFAIR

She hit the red carpet with her life partner, actor Brad Pitt. And waiting inside the El Capitan theatre were Pitt and actress Angelina Jolie's children.

But this wasn't a typical night at the movies for the Jolie-Pitt clan.

"No, it is not," said Jolie, with a laugh, during a brief stop on the block-long press-gauntlet walk at the world premiere of Walt Disney's "Maleficent," in which she stars.

"Well, oddly, we usually go to the El Capitan," Jolie continued. "That's where we take the kids. That's the closest theatre to us. So, we go here a lot and we like the shows beforehand, so -- but, no, the kids: This is the first time they were able to come to mommy's premiere. The other ones, they're in the back and they're downstairs with stuff, waiting. But they got dressed up and they wanted to. I told them they didn't have to. They picked their own things. They were all very cute. It's so much fun. It's so much fun to not be doing this like it's a job, but to be doing it and playing with the family."

Inspired by the 1959 Disney 'toon adaptation of the fairy tale "Sleeping Beauty," "Maleficent" asks why the villain would curse a baby to a lifetime in comatose limbo, and it and comes up with some good reasons why Maleficent is hopping mad at the kid's dad.

But the movie goes even further, showing how Maleficent goes from zero to hero. In fact, as per the new movie, it's the cursed baby (at one point in the film portrayed by Jolie and Pitt's daughter, Vivienne Pitt) and, later, the teen beauty (Elle Fanning) who melt's Maleficent's icy heart and guide her from darkness and back into the light.

"I understood that journey," Jolie explained. "The journey of the film is not dissimilar. I've been dark. I've been hurt. I've been gone and walls up and been angry, and changed. And then children have softened me and opened me up again and made me remember all those wonderful things, and they've helped to heal me. And I think our friends can do that, our loves can do that, and our children do that, so it's a wonderful thing."

In addition to raising her children and putting finishing touches on her first big-budget feature as a director, "Unbroken," due this Christmas, Jolie will continue to promote "Maleficent."

The next stop on the "Maleficent" tour is this weekend: China, about which humanitarian Jolie said she and Pitt have had long discussions, due to the country's reported human-rights abuses.

"There's been a lot of questions asked," Jolie noted. "(But) I think the end of the day, for me, getting a film like this, and what the themes of this film are, and even the women's role(s) in this film are -- I think it's wonderful that it's in China. And I think that, in itself, is something that's a real positive thing."

Jolie wasn't the only one grabbing attention at the premiere.

A man was jailed on suspicion of battery after rushing up and touching Brad Pitt on the red carpet, witnesses and police said, though Pitt was apparently unhurt and soon resumed signing autographs.

Witnesses saw the man from the fan area jump over a barrier onto the red carpet at the El Capitan Theatre and rush at Pitt, touching him briefly before security guards wrestled him back across the barrier.

The man was led away in handcuffs and arrested on suspicion of battery, said Los Angeles police spokeswoman Nuria Venegas, who did

not know the suspect's name. She could only confirm that he made contact with Pitt, and could not classify it any further.

Pitt kept greeting fans and walked into the theater.

The man got to Pitt despite security that was heavy for a movie premiere, with guards keeping a large gap between the stars and the

crowd.

Email messages left for representatives for Pitt and Disney were not immediately returned.

MAN ARRESTED FOR APPROACHING PITT SAYS HE DID IT FOR 'ENTERTAINMENT'

The ex-journalist who was arrested after jostling with Brad Pitt on a red carpet last week said Monday he was merely trying to give the actor a hug and didn't mean him any harm.

Vitalii Sediuk, a former Ukrainian television reporter, told The Associated Press in an interview that he was in a fan area of the event that was open to the public when he went in to give the actor a hug.

Sediuk, 25, has gained a reputation for outlandish pranks on red carpets in Moscow, Los Angeles and last month, at the Cannes Film Festival when he crawled underneath America Ferrera's dress at a film premiere.

His contact with Pitt, which caused the actor to lose balance while he was signing autographs at the "Maleficent" film premiere on Wednesday, led to Sediuk's arrest.

He spent two days in jail before pleading no contest to battery and unlawful activity at a sporting or entertainment event and was sentenced Friday to three years of probation and a year's worth of psychiatric counseling.

"I'm a normal guy," Sediuk said. "I'm not crazy. I do this for entertainment. "

The former Ukranian journalist has had numerous security-breaking encounters with celebrities of late, including hugging the legs of actor Bradley Cooper at January's Screen Actors Guild Awards and diving under the dress of actress America Ferrera at a Cannes-festival screening of "How to Train Your Dragon 2" last month.

Sediuk has been fired by the Ukrainian television station 1+1 and said he does not know what his next steps will be. He said he intends to spend the next few months focusing on fulfilling his sentence in the Pitt incident, which include community service and a restraining order preventing him from going near Hollywood events.

Sediuk said if he had an opportunity to speak with the celebrities encountered, "I'd say to them, 'Don't get offended at me. Don't get mad at me. And just to be thankful that I show it's easy to get access to you and maybe you have to tighten security."

He added he would like to remain in the entertainment field, working as a movie director or appearing in a reality show, and would continue work as a journalist - if anyone will hire him.

"So, I am a normal guy. I am not crazy. I do this for entertainment, but we can make a lot of stories out of one simple incident, or a prank. Entertainment industry can make it look entertainment. Serious news can talk about security, about access and celebrity, about giving credential to media outlets. So there's so much we can talk about the prank, and why I do it. But, as I say: My primary purpose is entertainment, fun and, obviously, not hating, offending someone, or putting in a crazy position."

And just to be thankful that I show it's easy to get access to you and maybe you have to tighten security, and maybe you have to talk to people in a different way -- maybe to be more cautious, may to have a time. Obviously, I don't want to say, 'Don't talk to fans.' But maybe cautious."

A man who accosted the celebrity actor Brad Pitt on a red carpet pleaded no contest to battery charges on Friday in Los Angeles.

Vitalii Sediuk was ordered to stay away from the actor and Hollywood red carpet events.

The 25 year-old former journalist entered the plea during a court appearance two days after he leaped from a fan area and made contact with Pitt at the "Maleficent" premiere.

He was sentenced to three years of probation and ordered to attend a year's worth of psychological counselling.

Sediuk, was also ordered to stay away from Pitt's partner, Angelina Jolie, and stay 500 yards (metres) away from the Hollywood block where movie premieres and the Academy Awards are hosted.

He was also ordered to stay away from LA Live, a downtown entertainment complex where Sediuk crashed the Grammy Awards in 2013.

Sediuk is a former journalist for the Ukrainian television station 1+1, which fired him about three weeks ago.

He smiled at times during the hearing and politely answered questions from a judge.

A man who accosted Brad Pitt on a red carpet pleaded no contest to battery Friday (30 May) and was ordered to stay away from the actor and Hollywood red carpet events.

Vitalii Sediuk entered the plea during a court appearance two days after he leaped from a fan area and made contact with Pitt at the "Maleficent" premiere. He was sentenced to three years of probation and ordered to attend a year's worth of psychological counseling.

Sediuk, 25, was also ordered to stay away from Pitt's partner, Angelina Jolie, and stay 500 yards (meters) away from the Hollywood block where movie premieres and the Academy Awards are hosted. He was also ordered to stay away from LA Live, a downtown entertainment complex where Sediuk crashed the Grammy Awards in 2013.

He was charged earlier Friday with four misdemeanors, including assault and two counts governing conduct at sporting and entertainment events. He also pleaded no contest to unlawful activity at a sporting or entertainment event, and the remaining counts were dropped.

Sediuk is a former journalist for the Ukrainian television station 1+1, which fired him about three weeks ago.

He smiled at times during the hearing and politely answered questions from a judge.

"I don't think that he necessarily looks at the matter as seriously as it's been taken by law enforcement and others," Sediuk's attorney, Anthony Willoughby, said after the hearing. "He realized the seriousness of the prank and has pretty much conveyed to me he's through engaging in those types of activities."

Willoughby said he expected the stay-away orders to be lifted after a year if his client behaves and joked that Sediuk may pursue a new profession.

"Well maybe he'll become an actor," said Willoughby with a laugh. "Which will be interesting because then he'd have to go to awards shows and they'd have to lift the ban."

Sediuk's antics have repeatedly brought him too close for comfort to Hollywood's elite. In 2011, Sediuk presented Madonna with a bouquet of hydrangeas at the 2011 Venice Film Festival, prompting the singer to express her disgust for the flowers. The following year, he attempted to kiss Will Smith on the mouth on a red carpet in Moscow, prompting a slap from the actor.

In 2013 he grabbed a microphone before Adele accepted a Grammy Award, which led to Sediuk's arrest. He later pleaded no contest to trespassing and got a three-year probation sentence.

He hugged Bradley Cooper's crotch earlier this year at the Screen Actors Guild Awards and streaked down a runway in a G-string at a show during February's Fashion Week in New York City. No charges were filed after either incident.

The Hollywood actress and UN special envoy Angelina Jolie said on Thursday that the summit in London on ending sexual violence in conflict must be followed by concrete actions by governments.

Jolie was joined by her partner Brad Pitt as they arrived for the third day of the End Sexual Violence in Conflict summit in London, which she is hosting with British Foreign Secretary William Hague.

On Wednesday they launched an international protocol to help governments across the world clamp down on rape in war zones.

The protocol sets out common standards for investigators and prosecutors, and Hague said it would play a vital role in shattering the culture of impunity for sexual violence in conflict.

"I think one of the things we are making progress on is creating some political will. There are countries coming here today with action plans of how they are going to tackle sexual violence in their countries, particularly in conflict situations and they are then going to be able to use the protocol that we have developed," Hague said.

Jolie is asking government leaders to endorse the protocol when they join the conference on Thursday.

Leaders, ministers and officials from more than 100 countries are expected to attend the ministerial session of the conference.

The stigma faced by survivors of sexual violence is one of the issues being discussed at the conference in London.

Syrian victims of rape and sexual violence often suffer in silence as those issues remain one of the most taboo subjects.

Aid workers in Zaatari camp for Syrian refugees are trying to change that attitude and send a message that help is available.

A Syrian refugee spoke to the British broadcaster Sky News recently in Zaatari camp in Jordan and recounted an ordeal his wife had been through.

A man identified as Manhal said he refused to reveal names of fellow anti-government activists when questioned by forces loyal to Syria's president Bashar Assad in Homs.

He said they tortured him: cut him with knives, beat him and electrocuted him, leaving him with scars and permanently disfigured.

But it didn't end there.

"They killed my son in front of me. But before that they brought him and my wife in the room. I said 'let them go and I'll tell you everything'. But my wife said 'Stay quiet. They've already raped me'."

He then described how three men assaulted his wife again and raped her in front of him.

His wife was killed and Manhal was left for dead but he somehow survived and sought refuge in Jordan.

The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) has established safe areas in Zaatari camp where only women are allowed.

They are encouraged to seek advice and talk confidentially with health workers about their experiences and traumas.

"Ending the silence on this issue is the first step towards stopping it," said Catherine Ashton, EU Foreign policy chief, addressing the summit in London.

The four-day summit, attended by ministers and officials from over 100 countries, aims to draw up global standards for investigating and punishing sex crimes in conflict zones.

Tape 2

Did you ever question the war?

0041 No, uh,

I may have questioned how it was being prosecuted, but I realize that it's just like Pres. Bush says, he says, If we don't fight them there, we are going to fight them here. And in fact, um, I tell people, remember 911, 'cuz I mean you are going to have another one. It's just a fact. It's just logic.

0110 as the President says.. They only have to be right once, we got to be right 100 percent of the time. If we mess up once that is it. There's gonna be another 911 or something like that. I mean, look what happened to that guy on the airplane, with the radiation, if they can do that to him, they can probably get enough here to do something equally crazy, so I never doubted it,

1:30 so it's high time the Iraqis stood up for themselves. You know I'm tired of hearing excuses. I'm tired of hearing people tell me what they can't do. I want to see what they can do. I mean I am tired of our young men laying it on the line for them, and then wow, they can't do this because of that and they cant' .. They are Shia, they'are Sunni. We have 300,000 of then we have trained up, and when I was in Iraq you know,

0206 although this minister, he's Kurdish, he really has no power over what happens in Baghdad, but it was my only opportunity to talk to him and say to him that ...he was saying you have to understand.. that .

02 23 There are only two things I have to understand, good guys, .bad guys..

Good guys go get the bad guys. That's all there is to it. There's war. It's not patty cake, it's not like anything I got a little upset.they are now just starting to talk about it like that.

0242 I'm the first one that said it at the press conference, and now I am hearing people say it.

0256 my whole point is, I am sure that out of 300,000 of their troops we could take 50,000 of them that want to fight for their own country, for their own freedom. I don't care if they are Shia, Sunni or whatever they are and go get the bad guys. And the rest of them, can go home, and we'll go talk to tem later, and we don't want them any ways, messing things up for the rest of them. If they don't want to fight, we don't need to pay them anyway. But for the guys that want to fight for their country, let's go with those guys.

How do feel about a rapid withdrawal?

0333 I feel it's a big mistake. I think its unfortunately..a this is my opinion

But I think they are ignorant of the situation. Either they are kowtowing to somebody for some political reason.

0356 If we pull out without properly securing the country the thing I have to look at from my trip to Iraq is the kids. The kids there were so great to us because the one thing I learned thru my business life, when you meet the children, how they treat you, is based on what their parents told them about you. So if the kids were told that we were bad people. They'd be afraid of us. And when we went to visit in the village and so forth, they would have been in a house and hiding from us because we are evil American s and or whatever. That wasn't the case. The kids came out in droves to play with us.

It was almost as if we were Brad Pitt or something.

0459 I've talked to soldiers and they've said the Iraqis in general want the Americans to stay there. They realize without us, they are not gonna make it, and they are very concerned, especially the Kurds and rightfully so, because Saddam Hussein tried to wipe them off the face of the earth..

0526 If you can go over to Iraq, and look those kids in the eye, and tell them, hey, we are gonna pull out, Kurds, we don't think you are worth saving, that's a big mistake. I mean those kids are the future of that country, and what we do there is gonna affect us. . And they grow up, the ones that survive, are not gonna think very highly of Americans.

Q-Angry about rapid withdrawal talk?

0600 what makes me angry is that the United States won't get its act together .as a nation. (04) I've been around this planet 47 years, and I'm a pretty basic guy. And if we are a team, then we all go in the same direction. (15) Unfortunately that's not happening. You know WWII, there were some dissenters, of course, and there always are dissenters. As majority we are headed in the same direction.

We fought a much larger

This is Saddam's fault.

He could have been like all these countries, but he wanted to torture other people.

Don't know the details

Iraqis need to suck it up

If this was happening in the US

Would not play patty cake with terrorists

Mayor of Chula vista

0208 That's the thing I am frustrated with: Us not getting not getting together on it and Iraqis not doing the things that they should be doing.

What should the US do in Iraq?

08:30 they need to ramp up, they need to ramp up the pressure, they need to go after the bad guys. Period. I mean it's pretty basic to me. Good guys. Bad guys. You know. Please go get the bad guys. They don't throw up the hands and go . uhhh they are form Kansas and we cant' do anything to them,..

0858 It just doesn't make sense to me, that we let a whole city, you know Falujah or sadr city just run amok, and run just any old way they want it to. No they need to go take the Iraqi troops, to fight and take care of business. Go ask the people that need to be arrested, and put down the insurrection.

They are murdering people. We don't do that in the US.

Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld interview in Larry King Live.

LARRY KING, HOST: Tonight, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, why he submitted his resignation to the president twice. And when might U.S. troops be coming home from Iraq?

And then, Dr. Phil is back, keeping it real and taking your calls as only he can. They're both next on LARRY KING LIVE.

It's a pleasure to welcome to LARRY KING LIVE the secretary of defense, Donald Rumsfeld. Sorry we couldn't be together in person, but the miracle of satellite produces it. He remains on in the Bush cabinet.

By the way, are you going to stay the whole four years? Is that it for you? Are you going to carry on?

DONALD RUMSFELD, SECRETARY OF DEFENSE: You know, we never discussed that when I met with the president and he asked me to stay on. My wife, Joyce, however, said -- she said, "You're going to know when to quit. And that's when you start trimming." And I haven't started trimming yet, Larry.

KING: Trimming meaning?

RUMSFELD: Oh, being something other than yourself.

KING: Really? In other words, like sleeping late?

RUMSFELD: No, no. Nothing like that. No, I think she had in mind that sometimes people in public life end up altering their behavior to fit what they think to be the circumstance. And my wife's attitude is life's too short for that, so you're -- either you're yourself or you go do something else.

KING: How do you explain, by the way, being successful all your life in business and public life and at the same time always being direct?

RUMSFELD: I don't know. But I do tend to be direct, and I think I owe that to people. I would feel very uncomfortable getting into a mode where I had to try to be clever.

KING: Let's get into some things. What about this whole Iraq operation, frankly, surprised you, beginning to end? Beginning to now?

RUMSFELD: Well, I guess, you know, no plan ever survives the first contact with the enemy. We're up against enemies that have brains, and they watch what we do and they change what they're doing to try to take advantage of what we're doing. And of course, we do the same thing.

So what you can do is fashion plans and look at all the things that you could anticipate that could do -- be done some way other than what you expect. And then fashion a plan that has excursions so that you can adjust to all of those things.

Now, clearly the war lasted -- the major combat operation lasted a very short period of time. General Franks did a superb job, and his commanders were highly successful.

One of the things that didn't go right was we were not able to get the 4th Infantry Division in from the north through Turkey. And because of that, the Sunnis north of Baghdad never really got engaged in the war and an insufficient number were captured and killed in that part of the country. And they didn't really ever experience the full power of the United States military.

And they, in many instances, today are the ones that are fomenting this insurgency that exists in Iraq. So that and the fact that we couldn't get that division in from the north was unfortunate, in my view.

KING: So would you say that the insurgency has surprised you somewhat?

RUMSFELD: It has clearly been at a level that has been more intense than had been anticipated.

KING: The prisoner abuse scandal, which seems to now have had some people admitting it, will we -- is there a possibility that could occur again? Have we put the Band-Aid on that?

RUMSFELD: Well, you know, when something that terrible happens, it tends to not happen immediately thereafter. People are so sensitized to the wrongness of that kind of abuse that it's less likely to happen for a period of time.

Now, it was just startling to all of us, and yet there it was. Some people in our custody were not treated properly, and the Uniform Code of Military Justice and the judicial process is proceeding. And any number of people have now pled guilty to behavior that they shouldn't have engaged in.

KING: Was there ever a time during that period when people were raising, screaming about Donald Rumsfeld, that you thought, "Maybe I ought to hang it up. Maybe I ought to -- the buck stops at the top"?

RUMSFELD: You know, it does. If you're in charge of a large organization, and something like that occurs, and of course in an organization -- the problem is this kind of thing occurs in prisons across the country and across the world. And you have to know it's going to be a possibility. And therefore, the training and the discipline and the doctrine has to be such that you anticipate that risk. And clearly, that wasn't done to the extent it should. I mean, the fact is, Larry, I submitted my resignation to President Bush twice during that period and told him that I felt that he ought to make the decision as to whether or not I stayed on. And he made that decision and said he did want me to stay on.

KING: And if he had accepted, no regrets?

RUMSFELD: No. Indeed, no. You know, the -- what was going on in the midnight shift in Abu Ghraib Prison halfway across the world is something that clearly someone in Washington, D.C., can't manage or deal with.

And so I have no regrets. I think that we have a wonderful team of people in the Department of Defense. We have good people. We've made a lot of corrections to make sure that those kinds of things happen -- either don't happen again or are immediately found out and limited and contained.

KING: Does those elections last Sunday, which you praised this morning and are so happy about, and the president, does that mean that half this battle is won? How far along are we on a scale of bringing the boys home, and the women home?

RUMSFELD: Well, the goal is to stay there as long as needed and not one day longer. And that means that Iraq has to be on a path towards freedom and democracy and a system of government that's respectful of the people, the diverse elements within the country and at peace with their neighbors.

And that means that the Iraqi security forces have to be sufficiently capable that they can ensure the security in that country. And we are well along in that process. I feel very good about the fact that we've made such good progress in training and equipping and organizing and mentoring these Iraqi security forces.

If you think about it, on election day, the Iraqi security forces provided the first ring and the second ring of security around 5,000 polling places across a country the size of California.

KING: Who will be, Mr. Secretary, the determiner of when those conditions are met? Because you once told me if the government says go, we go.

RUMSFELD: Absolutely. And of course, the government's saying quite the contrary. Has been, and I'm sure when the individuals who just ran in those breathtakingly wonderful elections, when they are seated in their constituent assembly, I suspect that they'll recognize the reality that the coalition forces have been the forces that liberated 25 million people in that country, the forces that are there to assist them, develop their own capacity, and that we have no interest in staying beyond any time we're welcome.

KING: But we won't put a timetable. Would you say it's going to be a while?

RUMSFELD: Well, you can't put a timetable on it. I wish I could. I'd dearly love to be able to tell the American people that on this date certain, we will have accomplished it. But the problem is, there are too many variables.

The question is the level of that insurgency, how -- to what extent do Iran and Syria not cooperate and make the insurgency worse? To what extent do the people who were elected fail to reach out to the Sunnis and bring them into the government so that they have a single country? Those variables will make a difference.

We know roughly how fast we can train and equip Iraqi security forces, and we have a schedule. And it's moving along very successfully. But it's the combination of the two, the competence of the Iraqi security forces, coupled with the intensity of the insurgency that's going to make the difference and determine when we can actually move our troops out.

KING: We'll be back with some more moments with Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld on this edition of LARRY KING LIVE. Don't go away.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

GEORGE W. BUSH, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: I'm mindful of the fact that we have constantly got to review our plans and never lose our will.

So Mr. Secretary, thanks for the briefing, it was a very good briefing and you're doing a fine job on behalf of the American people.

RUMSFELD: Thank you, sir.

BUSH: Thank you all.

KING: We're back with Secretary Rumsfeld. Mr. Secretary, how about our armored vehicles? Are things improved?

RUMSFELD: Well, they've improved enormously, Larry. I've talked to General Casey about it this week, and he tells me that by February 15, there will not be a vehicle moving around in Iraq anywhere outside of a protected compound that does not have the appropriate armor. They have put an enormous effort into it. Flown in people who could do the welding and flown in the steel to be attached to various vehicles.

And they've done something that is most unusual, they have provided force protection in a country and in an insurgency where there is no forward edge of the battlefield. You know, in an insurgency you can have an explosive device anywhere at all. It's not as though there is -- some people are in front of the battle -- line of battle and some are behind it, safe, there is no line of battle in an insurgency.

So they've done a wonderful job, the military has.

KING: What are your concerns about Iran?

RUMSFELD: Well, you have a country that's ruled by a small handful of clerics. And the -- it's not a stable situation in that sense. I mean, you've got women and young people who know what's going on elsewhere in the world. They see what's happening in Afghanistan where 25 million people have been liberated and women stood in line to vote.

And instead of using the soccer stadium to behead people, they're using it for soccer. And people can come and go as they wish. Now they what's happening in Iraq, here is a country so many people said, it's a quagmire, that they -- those people aren't ready for democracy or freedom. They're too used to a dictatorship. And yet they went out and voted.

And the neighboring countries are going to look at that, not just Iran, but Syria and other countries are going to look at it and think to themselves, isn't that an interesting thing that's taking place in our world? And you know, if you look back over history, the great sweep of history is for freedom. And we're on the side of freedom.

KING: And you think that will spread?

RUMSFELD: I think it will. Repression works, there's no doubt about that. I mean, you think about how long the Soviet Union was able to subjugate those various republics, for decades and decades and decades.

But the wonderful thing that I saw about Iraq last Sunday was the people went out to some of the polling places, and they stood around, they didn't vote. They watched to see what their neighbors and other people were going to do. And an hour went by and two hours went by. And of course, on the walls it said, "you vote, you die," where the Zarqawi people were threatening them.

But finally some woman, I'm told, over 70 years old, said, I'm going to go in and vote. She walked in to vote and all the other people started coming in. And what those people saw was that despite 35 years of a vicious dictatorship, they still had courage. They still were willing to take a chance. They still had that natural human desire to be free.

And I think it gave each of them more courage to know that there are other Iraqis, millions of other Iraqis, share their same desire for freedom.

KING: Are you going to go there again soon?

RUMSFELD: Yes.

KING: How soon? Does it have to be a surprise? They can't announce when you go, right, I guess?

RUMSFELD: Yes, I normally don't announce when I'm going. But I go frequently, as you know.

KING: Tell me about this anthrax vaccination that's picking up again for men and women in service, why?

RUMSFELD: There still is the risk of anthrax. It is possible that you can deal with it prophylacticly with a series of shots. We had an authorization to go ahead and do that. And most people who were at least at risk of being in an area where they might be vulnerable to the anthrax began that process. A number of them finished the process. And then there was a legal step taken that delayed that.

And then I'm told that the Food and Drug Administration provided an emergency authority that on certain circumstances they could proceed. And it's a matter that is being worked out with the lawyers. But it's just a prudent step.

KING: There were stories through the years of Colin Powell about a rift. You've always been direct with us, is any of that true?

RUMSFELD: Look, I've known Colin Powell since I was secretary of defense and he was a colonel. And he is an enormously talented man. He's got a fine brain. He's got a lot of ability. He's about as articulate as anyone you'll ever meet. And he cares about the country.

And he, in his role as secretary of state, and me, in my role as secretary of defense, represent big institutions. And those institutions have different perspectives on the world and different perspectives on policies. And that's a healthy thing.

And the president wanted those discussions and debates to take place. He is a president that has got a lot of confidence in himself and in our country and in listening to different views.

My relationship with Colin Powell has been uniformly cordial and professional and I consider him a friend.

KING: So even with debates, no acrimony.

RUMSFELD: No, indeed. Now, down below three layers you have people who say things and do things that cause that impression to develop. But no, on a personal basis, we've had a lot of good times together and certainly agreed more often than we disagreed...

KING: How did he get along...

RUMSFELD: ... and when we disagreed...

KING: I'm sorry...

RUMSFELD: Disagreed it was not disagreeable.

KING: How do you get along with Secretary Rice?

RUMSFELD: Very well. She is also a very bright person and knowledgeable. She also is, of course, very anxious to be supportive of President Bush and she's very close to him. I had lunch with her yesterday and we talk every morning and sort through a whole set of issues, just as she and Colin and I talked every morning at 7:15 to work through a series of issues and had lunch once a week.

KING: Will she do well?

RUMSFELD: I think so. I think she is going to be a very good secretary of state. She is a person who has always been an achiever, whether it was in music or education or her discipline -- the old Soviet Union -- she has always been a person who has excelled. And I don't doubt for a minute that she will excel in this new post.

KING: Now tell me, I -- most officials wear the flag. What's in your lapel?

RUMSFELD: Well, I'm wearing the "Support Our Troops" symbol, "America Supports You." And...

KING: Is that that Web site?

RUMSFELD: It is. It's the Web site, and I think it's americasupportsyou.mil. And...

KING: Yes, I have -- I see it here.

RUMSFELD: It's a wonderful opportunity for people to go to the Web site and find out all the fabulous things the American people are doing to support our troops.

KING: It's called americasupportsyou -- all one word -- .mil, M- I-L, "details what people have done to support the military, what you can do at home, features response from military people about the support they've received and it's an official Web site of the Department of Defense."

How new is this?

RUMSFELD: Very new. It has been within recent weeks.

KING: Secretary, as always, good to see you, next time, in person.

RUMSFELD: Thank you very much, Larry, it's good to be with you.

KING: Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. When we come back, Dr. Phil, hey, there's a quinella (ph), don't go away.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KING: It's always a great pleasure to welcome Dr. Phil McGraw to LARRY KING LIVE. Dr. Phil of the host of the highly rated TV talk show, "Dr. Phil Show." Has his second network prime time special coming, "Romance Rescue." It will air on February 15th, the day after Valentine's Day on CBS.

His number one "New York Times" best seller, "The Ultimate Weight Solution" is now out in trade paperback and selling well there. And, of course, the continual best seller is "Family First: Your Step by Step Plan," I have the book right here, "For Creating a Phenomenal Family."

What is "Romance Rescue" about?

DR. PHIL MCGRAW, HOST "DR. PHIL SHOW": Well, it's Valentine's, you know. We're doing this the day after Valentine's Day, and I get so many questions about relationships. And people are like, hey, I can't find that one, should this be so much work if you're truly in love? If you've found your soulmate, should we work on this? How do we put the sizzle back in this? How do we do all this? So we're really diving into that. And we have some...

KING: And what do I see?

MCGRAW: We have some great and fun stories. Well, we've got some examples -- in fact, we have the first electronically enhanced date that I think has ever been done. There's this gorgeous girl, Jeanile, (ph) who's just delightful, and has lots of first dates, can't ever seem to get to the second ones. So we really analyzed it. Went to the Telestrator, figured out what kind of signals she was putting out, then I put an IFB in her ear, a little bug in her ear and put her on a date with her. So, I went on date with her.

KING: You talked to her?

MCGRAW: I talked to her through the date. And we'll let people see what they think the differences are. Something else we did, which I think was really interesting, we had so much controversy from this couple on "The Amazing Race," Jonathan and Victoria, where he seemed to be abusing his wife, verbally, emotionally, and physically on the show, under the pressure of everything that was going on. America was outraged. Millions of e-mails flowed into CBS. I got e-mails myself. I'm not even involved with the show, saying, Dr. Phil, what's going on here? Somebody needs to help these people. We're worried about this woman. So I sat down with that couple and asked them the questions that America wants to know. So we looked at the underside of relationships as well. And so we delve into the good side, the bad side, and how to make this stuff work.

KING: Why do you use the term "rescue"?

MCGRAW: Because I think a lot of people need a wakeup call. So many people get married. We spend more time planning the wedding than we do the marriage. You'll interview 100 caters, you'll do all the flowers. You'll get the dresses, the bridesmaids. You'll get all of that stuff lined up, but do you sit down and talk about what you really want to do in the marriage?

We have a series that starts the day after the "Romance Rescue" special. That's on at night on CBS. The next day we start a premarital boot camp, where I took three couples that are on the way to getting married, and put them through a boot camp that we're going to do through the month of February to see where they are on -- have they talked about, what are the expectations for marriage? What about sex? What about kids?

KING: You think they may not marry? MCGRAW: Sure, sure. Oh, let me tell you, there are some surprise outcomes in this whole boot camp. But you've got to talk about money, sex, in-laws, religion.

KING: It's hard to intellectualize what is the flowering romance leading to marriage, an intellectual discussion.

MCGRAW: You don't have to talk from your head. You can discuss things from your heart, and you can discuss them at a feeling level. And Larry, let me say, I believe that the outcome of most marriages are determined before you ever walk down the aisle. I think that, whether a marriage is going to work or not is determined by what you do before you tie the knot.

KING: We'll take a break and come back. The program "Romance Rescue" will air on February 15, the night after Valentine's Day on CBS. We're going to talk about other things including, scary trends, and he's got a show coming called "Celebrity Obsessed." We'll ask about that. Don't go away.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

MCGRAW: This season on "The Amazing Race," millions of viewers saw one married couple, Jonathan and Victoria, go at each other to the point that people were crying abuse.

JONATHAN: How could you stop and pick up my bag? How could you do that? How could you do that?

VICTORIA: John, just stop that.

MCGRAW: Are you a jerk? Are you just an arrogant jerk that will just fly off the handle and get in people's face and bark at them?

JONATHAN: Did I do that, yes. Is that part of my true character? no.

MCGRAW: I'm just trying to find out who you really are. You stand up in front of the camera, and not under pressure and say, well, Victoria has some challenges that she's just going to have to get right with. You say, be the woman and be quiet. My whining is your incompetent. Is that OK with you?

VICTORIA: No, it's definitely not, OK.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

(SINGING)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I think my son, Barry, has the ability to be the next Barry Manilow.

MCGRAW: He's always singing this kind of music. That's not popular with kids his age, right?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Probably not.

MCGRAW: It's not probably. The demographics is such that Barry Manilow is not big in junior high.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: That's right. Did we influence him? Definitely. There's definitely an influence.

MCGRAW: Well, you met your wife in a Barry Manilow fan club meeting, right?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Correct.

MCGRAW: You got married on Barry Manilow's birthday...

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Correct.

MCGRAW: To make it more special.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Correct.

MCGRAW: You named your kid Barry.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: There's no connection.

MCGRAW: Was this your dream or was it Barry's?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I resent you saying that.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

KING: Pushy parents.

MCGRAW: Well, they -- that is a show about pushy parents, and they're all different kinds. This particular story, this is an amazingly talented kid. This kid has written over 100 songs on his own, he did a musical when he was 10-years-old and has great keyboard skills and all.

And so sometimes you get a child that truly is a prodigy, and then the parents are like, what do I do with him? How do I get the right positioning for him? How much is pushing too much? But you'll see more of that kid. He is a delightful kid and a talented kid.

KING: Ho how do you know so much about so many things?

MCGRAW: I don't. You know what I know? I do know human functioning, and I know the questions to ask, because I think people have the answers to just about everything they need to know inside them.

Don't you think when you really get down to it, the answers you find come from the inside out, whether it's what to do with your kids or what to do in your marriage, or what to do with your own life? I think people know the truth when they hear it, because they knew the truth before you said it.

KING: What is this you're going to do on scary trends? What does that mean?

MCGRAW: Larry, I -- we are partnering with our affiliate in Denver. And they contacted us and said, we have had 4 -- I'm sorry, 7 alcohol poisoning deaths in Denver since September of this year. Teenagers and college students who were drinking so much that it became toxic and poisoned their brain.

We got hundreds of letters from parents of kids who are buying cough medicine, cough syrup, cough suppressing pills, which have DXM in them, which is a kind of -- it's very similar to a synthetic heroin. It's available in 125 different brands of cough medicine that kids can walk in for $1.25, a $1.50 and buy.

And the active ingredients, the active ingredient is a very effective in its normally dosage, but if you take it too much, then it becomes a hallucinogenic, it gives them a high and parents aren't aware that kids are walking into the corner drugstore, buying this stuff and taking it to the point that it puts their absolute life in jeopardy.

So, we're talking about some of these scary trends. This binge drinking that kids are doing...

KING: This is wide spread?

MCGRAW: Oh, it's very widespread. In fact, 40 percent of college students report that they have done binge drinking within the last few weeks. So it's just happening a lot. It's not all kids, but its happening with them.

KING: So you're going to do a show on it.

MCGRAW: And this DXM is very important. So, we have done a very compelling show that looks right into what parents need to know. And you need to change your talk with your kids. You used to tell them, don't drink and drive, be careful. We really need to talk to these kids about not overdosing themselves on alcohol.

KING: You have got a show scheduled in February called celebrity obsessed.

MCGRAW: Yes. Well -- this is something that's really interesting to me, because we have so many people that are obsessed with things like J.Lo and the Bennifer thing. And in fact, our first guest on the celebrity so obsessed which is next Wednesday is so obsessed with Brad Pitt, she honestly believes that now he and Jennifer had broken up, which I didn't know until she told me, she has a chance now. She just lives up in Idaho or something, but she thinks she's going run in and Brad get married.

KING: Are these stalkers or is this just...

MCGRAW: She certainly is not. But they -- it gets to the point that it's just every magazine, every gossip column, buying the purses that the celebrities wear, everything that they see them do, they see them drinking a certain water, they've got to have that water, the purse they're carrying, the top wear wearing.

KING: What's that a manifestation of?

MCGRAW: I think it's people that say, I don't like my life. My life's mundane, it's not exciting, so I'm going to live vicariously through someone else.

We have a guest on that show that is planning to do every manner of plastic surgery to transform herself into a Jessica Simpson look-a- like. And, of course, I'm telling her, Jessica Simpson doesn't look like Jessica Simpson. This is smoke and mirrors. She's a beautiful girl, don't get me wrong, but, you know, it's all about lighting and make-up and lenses.

And people just chase this perfection that's just not going to be there instead of saying, how can I enhance my own life. How can I pick this up and really get myself going. So, it's all human function.

KING: If you haven't seen Dr. Phil's daily show, it's terrific. I've been a guest. It was one of the great time...

MCGRAW: You were a terrific guest. Did we have fun or what?

KING: Did we have fun?

MCGRAW: It was my turn to get him so I got ask the questions.

KING: What you have is anger management. I'll forget that line...

(CROSSTALK)

KING: It's quoted to me frequently at home.

MCGRAW: As it well should be.

KING: Yes, I know.

You have a show coming called "Addicted to Sex." This is a problem?

MCGRAW: Oh, he's bragging now.

KING: No, no, no. I'm just...

MCGRAW: I'm going to call the house and find out how...

(CROSSTALK)

KING: It's an addiction?

MCGRAW: It can be. I mean, obviously couples, the sexual aspect of their marriage and committed relationship is very important. But we are in a different era now, Larry. It used to be to get into pornography, you know, you had to go put on the raincoat and go down to the XXX bookstore or something. Now, with the Internet, I mean, even children are a few keystrokes away from the most graphic sort of pornography and that sort of thing that you could ever imagine. It has become epidemic.

It is the fastest growing area of the Internet of all.

KING: It's the No. 1 hit on the Internet?

MCGRAW: We're talking about billions and billions of hits. So, I mean -- and it's mostly men. But they sit right there and they key this stuff up. And then -- we have a guest on this show, intelligent, articulate people who advocate bringing a third party into the marriage. you know, you can call it swinging, you can call it whatever you want, but they go out and bring other couples into the marriage and truly believe that this is a healthy thing that keeps spice in the marriage.

Now, you can call me old fashioned, you can call me puritanical, but I don't need a third party in my marriage. How about you? You want to go bring someone home with you?

KING: What's the danger of being obsessed with it? What's the danger of looking at pornography every night to the person doing it?

MCGRAW: First off, anybody that is obsessed with and addicted to pornography, I guarantee you they have problems with intimacy. They turn to a flat screen, a two dimensional image, because there's no fear of rejection, they don't have to interact, they don't have to perform emotionally, spiritually, socially, interactively. So, you know, they're hiding in that.

And people say, hey, Dr. Phil, what's the big problem? There's no harm, there's no crime. Let me tell you there is harm, and there is crime. Because every time you punch up one of those pornography sites, you're looking at somebody's daughter, somebody's daughter who has gone way off the mark and has gotten pulled into something that she doesn't need to be in. And you are funding that. You are enabling that when you do it. And you don't have to think very long about how ugly that world is. And again, it's fantasy, it's not real.

And if you're turning away from your partner -- you know, I talk about in family first, that you have to focus your family inward, because if you turn away from your partner to try to resolve your problems that never works, not with a third party and not with pornography. And we're going to be looking at that really hard.

KING: His books are "Family First," still a major best seller, "The Ultimate Weight Solution," major best seller in paperback. He has the highly rated day-time TV talk program. Second only to Oprah, by the way, in syndication by the way.

MCGRAW: That's not a bad person to be second to.

KING: Not bad to be second to.

And you'll see him as the host of "Romance Rescue" February 15 on CBS.

We'll take some calls for Dr. Phil right after this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: He wants me to sign a sex contract, and that's a problem.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I think the sex contract is a good idea. I talked to my married friends and they say sex dropped dramatically since they got married so I want to guarantee that doesn't happen to me.

MCGRAW: I need a stenography in here.

Heather, come in. This will be between you and your fiancee.

You call this...

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: ...intimate obligations.

MCGRAW: So what's an intimate obligation.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Kissing.

MCGRAW: How about orgasm?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Whoa, whoa, whoa...

MCGRAW: If you want a specific contract, you got to be specific.

Any fantasies, do you want to dress up like a fireman or something, or anything -- a French maid, what are you looking for?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Nothing in particular. It's just getting down to the business.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I want to keep my same life I had before he came along.

MCGRAW: You do have the baby, right?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Mm-hmm.

MCGRAW: And it's not going to go away.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I'm still just trying to cling to the life that I had, you know. I told her I wasn't ready to have a child, and so now how can I be expected to respond to one as if I was prepared to have a child?

MCGRAW: Because you have a child.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KING: You just said that's an important show.

MCGRAW: It is an important show.

That's the show we have on tomorrow. And the show is entitled "My Baby Ruined My Life." And there are actually so many parents who underestimate the sacrifice, the demands of having a child. And then when they get into it, it's like, you're the reason I can't go to college, you're the reason I don't have a social life. And they really project this onto their children.

And, you know, some do it blatantly, some do it in a, you know, kind of a subtle way. And, you know, we talk in "Family First" that the No. 1 characteristic of a phenomenal family is that you create a nurturing and accepting family system where everybody has a role, the children have this wonderful sense of belongingness, acceptance. They just feel like, if I wasn't here, things wouldn't be right. And if you take that away from a child, it erodes their self-esteem terribly.

KING: Greenville, North Carolina, we go to calls for Dr. Phil. Hello.

CALLER: Hi, how are you tonight?

KING: Fine.

MCGRAW: Good evening.

CALLER: Hi, Dr. Phil.

MCGRAW: How are you? What's your question?

CALLER: My question is regarding the sex addiction. I actually was -- sent in a story regarding this. I've been married for 10 years, and from day one, my husband has tried to get us to invite another male partner into our relationship. And I've refused to do this. And because of that, now at the ten-year mark, he's saying our marriage is over, and it's all my fault. And I just -- I don't understand what -- why it's important? Why does a man have to have another party...

KING: And he wanted -- ma'am, he wanted it to be a male?

CALLER: Yes.

KING: OK, doctor.

MCGRAW: First, let me tell you that I'm sorry you wasted 10 years on this loser. Because if he's telling you, you either do a three-way sexual relationship with me or I'm out of here, then you just need to tell him not to let the door hit him in the ass, because you don't want that kind of relationship. You don't want that kind of demeaning. And he is just unhealthy in what he's thinking and doing.

You never solve relationship problems by turning away from your partner to somebody outside. That is unhealthy. It is unsafe. It is just not right. So if that's what he wants, and he's been fixated it to the point he's going to run you off if you don't, you're better off to know it now than later.

KING: Huma, Louisiana, hello.

CALLER: Hi, yes. Dr. Phil, my mom has always been my best friend. And she's been recently diagnosed with dementia, namely Alzheimer's, and she is -- the whole family's in denial, and I'm the only one who's kind of carrying the burden of everything. But she's become very competitive with me. She makes very degrading comments about my parenting skills. And I have to say, I'm not the best mom, but I'm a good mom. I use positive discipline, and she doesn't understand the way that I get my children to do the things I do. I don't hit and I don't yell, and she doesn't understand, so she thinks to let them do whatever they want.

MCGRAW: What's your question?

CALLER: We got into a minor disagreement on January 2, and she still isn't talking to me. And I've apologized. I don't know where the line is between...

KING: Dr. Phil understands dementia and he understands Alzheimer's.

MCGRAW: First off, it's very important that you...

KING: It is progressive, right?

MCGRAW: It is very progressive. And it's very important that you not take this personally. And it's so hard when you say, well, it's me she's not talking to, it's me she's criticizing, it's me that's being the brunt, but have you really to step back and understand that this gets to a point where it is an involuntary thing for her. She may well be having some very circular thinking at this point, and not be reasoning particularly well.

If you will be patient. And, listen, that doesn't mean that you allow her to abuse you in a repetitive fashion. But you have to be patient, be supportive, be understanding, but don't enable her by not requiring her to be as accountable as she possibly can be. If you begin to treat her like a baby or an invalid, then that is an insult to her. So, don't take her dignity away by condescending to her, but don't take it personal.

And truly, talk to your neurologist, talk to your physician, and see if there are things that you can do with medications and all that can ease some of this. You will get past this.

KING: It's hard not to take it personally.

MCGRAW: It is hard not to take it personal, because you have such a history with your mother. And it's the same voice, it's the same countenance, it's the same tone of voice of when she's been disappointed with you, but it may not be a conscious choice on her part.

KING: You've got a show coming on, is my son a sexual predator?

MCGRAW: Larry, we do. I believe in all the years I've been doing television, you know, 5 years on Oprah and 3 years now here with the thousands of guests that I've dealt with, this may be the single most compelling story that I've ever encountered.

A very loving and caring family wrote in and said, we fear that our son may, in fact, be abusing our daughter. And he's an adult now, he's 19. We've reached out for help, and nobody -- everybody says, until something happens, we can't do anything, we don't have any proof. And nobody will talk to him, nobody will confront him, nobody will find out what the situation is. We're lost. We don't know what to do. Will you help us?

And he agreed to participate and talk about these things. So, we really do a deconstruction of sexual molestation in the family, the effects that it has on everybody involved. And there is a 5-year-old little girl involved in this story that hangs in the balance.

KING: When does it air?

MCGRAW: And -- it's coming up in -- I think it's sometime next week. Watch for it on our Web site, drphil.com. It's, is my son a sexual predator? And I believe, really, it is the single most compelling story I've ever dealt with.

KING: We'll be back with our remaining moments with Dr. Phil. Get a few more calls in right after this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I want her to know that somewhere in me I do love her. It's just very hard for me.

MCGRAW: That anger should be at this guy that lied to you. You're displacing this to an innocent child because she can't take up for herself. This isn't about her. Are you going to be a bitter, cold, denying, rejected mother for the whole rest of your life because of something that happened five years ago?

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I hope not.

MCGRAW: Is this a life sentence that you're going to serve and that Lily's (ph) going to serve? You made a mistake. She is not a mistake. I believe that people have the children they are supposed to have.

(END VIDEO CLIP) KING: Take another call for Dr. Phil.

Santa Barbara, California, hello. Santa Barbara, are you there?

Santa Barbara.

CALLER: Yes, I'm here. Dr. Phil...

KING: Yes, go -- yes, go ahead.

CALLER: Dr. Phil, I think it's great that your show addresses domestic violence and spousal abuse quite often. I watch your show.

MCGRAW: Thank you.

CALLER: However, I wish my husband would have broken my arm or punched me in the nose, and that it was something people could actually see. I'm a victim of emotional and the worst kind of physical violence against a woman, which is rape. I've never heard you speak about spousal rape, Dr. Phil. I live in a community where there is, you know, very wealthy people, and I went to rape crisis, and I was practically thrown out. Nobody understands the fact that my husband raped me for 20 years. And I know...

KING: Are you still married?

CALLER: ... Larry King, don't ask him why I stayed with him, because Dr. Phil, tell him why women stay in a situation like that.

KING: I'll ask it with a further question, a husband can rape a wife?

MCGRAW: Absolutely. Just because you fill out some paperwork down at the courthouse doesn't mean that you give up the right to control your body, the right to control access to your body.

KING: Why don't people believe her? Why don't...

MCGRAW: I'm not sure who she's been talking to, but, you know, the problem is, when you are abusing someone, the primary tool of the abuser is isolation. They get the victim to themselves, where they don't have resources, they don't have people that will support them that they can reach out to. And what abuse victims have to do, is to find those resources and take that step to reach out. I've talked to so many women who have said, you know, I'm physically abused by my husband. I need to stand up and get in his face and tell him not to. That's the absolute wrong thing to do. If you do that, you will get beat up severely. You may get hurt. You may get killed. What you have to do is learn what your resources are. Reach out to the women shelters, reach out to your church, to your family. I promise you that if this woman reaches out to responsible people at her church or at her community services and shelters, they will listen, they will help.

KING: Have you done a show on marital rape?

MCGRAW: we have not done show on spousal rape, but it is certainly on our radar screen to do.

KING: Doctor, always a great pleasure. Look forward to the next visit.

MCGRAW: Larry, thank you so much.

KING: Look forward to the special.

All right, let me run them down. Dr. Phil's special will be on the CBS on February 15, the night after Valentine's Day, "Romance Rescue." Upcoming shows, and we've seen some clips of what's coming, scary trends, addicted to sex, sexual predator son, celebrity obsessed.

The book "Family First," still a major best seller in hard cover. And now in paper back, "The Ultimate Weight Solution: The Seven Keys to Weight Loss Freedom." All that from the mind, concept, Dr. Phil McGraw, one of my favorite folk. I'll be back in a couple minutes. Don't go away.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KING: Aaron Brown is off tonight, and who's sitting in? They bring her in from the morning, Soledad O'Brien, mother of twins, but carrying on, will host "NEWSNIGHT."

Now yesterday, Nate 'N Al's, right here in Beverly Hills, I saw Jeff Greenfield, and he said he's with Schwarzenegger, for you show. What's going on?

SOLEDAD O'BRIEN, GUEST HOST "NEWSNIGHT": That's right, that's who he's talking to. And lots to talk about this evening about Arnold Schwarzenegger, not only about how he's being received in California, but of course, in his native Austria as well this evening, Larry.

KING: Go get them Soledad.

STORYLINE

THRILLER "SALT" PREMIERES IN WAKE OF REAL LIFE SPY SWAP

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were met by crowds of screaming fans at the Hollywood premiere of spy thiller "Salt" - which is about to hit theaters less than a month after a real life US-Russian spy swap.

On the big screen, Jolie plays a long standing CIA officer named Evelyn Salt, who goes on the run after being accused by a defector of being a Russian spy.

Earlier this month, four Russians convicted of spying for the West were exchanged in Vienna for 10 Russian agents deported from the United States, in the largest such deal since the Cold War.

Jolie has mixed feelings about the events:

"Well the side of me that is versed in international politics thought I hope this doesn't change our relationship with Russia. Because there so many important things that we are having to deal with. When it comes to Iran, Afghanistan, and nuclear proliferation. The side that is opening a movie about it, that where people thought 'is this possible?' I thought yes that is pretty great timing for a film."

Co-star Liev Schreiber has been watching the news too.

"I think it happened awfully quickly. I think the swap happened very fast. That is suspect," says the actor. "They all agreed to it, that is suspect. I also think because it was FBI that means there would have to be federal cases. So they'd have to go through ten separate indictments, which would be ten separate very, very public espionage cases that I don't think the CIA or the SVR really want. So I think there is another movie in the works right now probably."

Jolie performed many of her own stunts for "Salt," including jumping off a freeway overpass onto a speeding truck.

The star says she loved getting back into the swing of an action role.

"It was great. I hadn't worked for over a year I had two babies and I had been home in my nightgown a lot. It was really nice to get out and get really aggressive and physical. It was nice balance."

But the actress claimed ignorance of a future role she has been reported to be chasing - Elizabeth Taylor, in a film Mike Nichols is said to want to make about her love life with Richard Burton.

"I have never heard that before," said Jolie, adding "I don't think anybody that can be better than Elizabeth Taylor, at being Elizabeth Taylor."

Her father Jon Voight, however, thinks Jolie shares certain similarities with the screen icon.

"Well I mean she is looked upon as that shining light of this generation. She shares... her physical beauties are comparable I suppose. They are very different physically but they are both beauties. Great beauties."

"Salt" opens in theaters across the United States on Friday (23 July 2010).

FOR CLEAN VERSION SEE STORY NUMBER: apus011350

A man who accosted Brad Pitt on a red carpet pleaded no contest to battery Friday (30 May) and was ordered to stay away from the actor and Hollywood red carpet events.

Vitalii Sediuk entered the plea during a court appearance two days after he leaped from a fan area and made contact with Pitt at the "Maleficent" premiere. He was sentenced to three years of probation and ordered to attend a year's worth of psychological counseling.

Sediuk, 25, was also ordered to stay away from Pitt's partner, Angelina Jolie, and stay 500 yards (meters) away from the Hollywood block where movie premieres and the Academy Awards are hosted. He was also ordered to stay away from LA Live, a downtown entertainment complex where Sediuk crashed the Grammy Awards in 2013.

He was charged earlier Friday with four misdemeanors, including assault and two counts governing conduct at sporting and entertainment events. He also pleaded no contest to unlawful activity at a sporting or entertainment event, and the remaining counts were dropped.

Sediuk is a former journalist for the Ukrainian television station 1+1, which fired him about three weeks ago.

He smiled at times during the hearing and politely answered questions from a judge.

"I don't think that he necessarily looks at the matter as seriously as it's been taken by law enforcement and others," Sediuk's attorney, Anthony Willoughby, said after the hearing. "He realized the seriousness of the prank and has pretty much conveyed to me he's through engaging in those types of activities."

Willoughby said he expected the stay-away orders to be lifted after a year if his client behaves and joked that Sediuk may pursue a new profession.

"Well maybe he'll become an actor," said Willoughby with a laugh. "Which will be interesting because then he'd have to go to awards shows and they'd have to lift the ban."

Sediuk's antics have repeatedly brought him too close for comfort to Hollywood's elite. In 2011, Sediuk presented Madonna with a bouquet of hydrangeas at the 2011 Venice Film Festival, prompting the singer to express her disgust for the flowers. The following year, he attempted to kiss Will Smith on the mouth on a red carpet in Moscow, prompting a slap from the actor.

In 2013 he grabbed a microphone before Adele accepted a Grammy Award, which led to Sediuk's arrest. He later pleaded no contest to trespassing and got a three-year probation sentence.

He hugged Bradley Cooper's crotch earlier this year at the Screen Actors Guild Awards and streaked down a runway in a G-string at a show during February's Fashion Week in New York City. No charges were filed after either incident.

STORYLINE:

Nearly 100 weapons to be used in Brad Pitt's next film, "World War Z" were confiscated in Hungary because they had not been properly deactivated, authorities said on Tuesday.

The weapons included machine guns, rifles and pistols.

The weapons travelled from London to Budapest's Ferenc Liszt Airport on Saturday and were discovered at a nearby duty free zone, according to Hungary's Counter terrorism Centre.

"Weapons like these can not be imported to the country," Zsolt Bodn�r, Deputy General-Director of Hungary's Counter Terrorism Centre said.

"Guns like those seized can only be used by the army or the police," he added.

The head of the counter-terrorism unit, Janos Hajdu, said the weapons had been seized as they were not fully deactivated and could easily be used to fire live ammunition.

Bela Gajdos, a weapons supervisor for the film said Mafilm, a Hungarian film company based near Budapest which had the guns brought to Hungary, had the necessary permits, including a detailed list of the weapons in question, issued by local police authorities.

In accordance with British regulations, the weapons were prepared to be used with blank ammunition, Gajdos said, while in Hungary the guns were considered to be "not suitably modified."

Gajdos said he had been questioned by government investigators and that his home in Budapest had been thoroughly searched by security forces before dawn Monday who also confiscated the permits.

Gajdos added that he had not been able to inspect the weapons before the police seized them, but that they would have been checked by him and a Hungarian forensic weapons expert before allowing their use in the film.

Adam Goodman, whose company is providing production services for the movie said he had been advised not to comment on links between the seized weapons and the film.
