duckqueak Are you intelligent enough to know that man can't walk on water or do you believes in the bs ? I don't give a fuck if the world believe that a man can walk on water, he can't because all the available data says it can't happen. Also how can you turn water into wine without fucking up the laws of physics too. Or dead people rising from the dead ? You don't think Frankestien is real so why the fuck would you belive in it just because it happened outside of you time line? Idiot.
Sexual slavery is SUCH a big problem, even all throughout America and Europe and yet it receives so little coverage. If I remember right the figure back in 2012 was like 2.5 million victims circulating through these human trafficking rings; and I suspect that number has only grown too. It is freaking insane we so rarely hear about it!

Exactly! In recent years, Cuba has been a lot more open to ideas from other parts of the world. Until recently, small private businesses (Like hot dog stands) were not allowed. They now provide citizens with a bit of disposable income. As always, Cuba does possess VERY good healthcare and education, the foundings to any healthy country. All that it's missing, in my opinion, is freedom of speech, access to varied knowledge (soon to come as internet enters cuba) and economic liberties.
Obama already did invade Syria by arming rebels. Your tax dollars get the most mayhem for the buck. Neocons waste more. Neolibs like to look magnanimous while running the same disastrous play wars.
STEPHEN!!! You're doing an AWESOME job at picking guests for the new show!!! Keeping the jokes coming, but with someone who can share great input into our current situations, and actually informing people....that's why they say you're one of the greats!!!
explain? why? anyone who is not completely uninformed and hypnotized by the tv screen knows exactly what he is talking about. she is a liar and a warmonger. those who are uninformed and hypnotized are not worth talking to, they have to figure stuff out for themselves before they can participate in any serious discussions.
Abc Def So you couldn't answer. As I thought. Name one war she advocated for. Just one. And don't say Libya because that was a civil war which started during the Arab spring.
that aint ordinary bruh your statement about libya is precisely why i said you are not worth talking to. if you think that the war in libya was anything else but an act of war by the united states (and its allies, like france and the UK) against the people of libya, you are not worth talking to. if you had any knowledge about what the usa and the cia did in iran in 1953 (go ahead, look it up, the secret documents have all been declassified by the usa), you would not be talking this kind of hollywood bullshit about libya. even if the war in libya was a "civil war" how is bombing libya not an act of war? how about you answer which war she did not advocate? was she against the american invason of iraq? was she against the american bombings of syria and libya? was she against the bombing of yugoslavia? fell free to check for yourself. to be perfectly frank i never did any checking on any of the mentioned wars, but i would be willing to bet that she never opposed any of those wars. all i need to know about this women can be summed up in a few of her own words: "we came, we saw, he died". after that kind of statement you are permanently labeled as a psychopath and a warmonger.
She is a disgrace! Both her and Obama are disgusting! Everybody knows that the only way to stop the war in Syria, if there would be some kind of a common position against the terrorists, but these criminals only want war and destabilization. You people need to get your heads out of your asses!
A Harvard grad lawyer, war correspondant, important member of Obama administration, pulitzer price winner and book authors, a mother of two, a true humanitarian and a patriot. Samantha Power.
Guys, listen here, listen carefully. That people speak Russian in Crimea does not mean that Russia has a claim to it.There may be other reasons why Russia might have a claim to it (no, I'm not interesting in debating those) but the language is not a legitimate reason so you can stop harping about it. Using a for me local example: in Skåne they speak as much Danish as Swedish and the region has been pulled back and forth between our countries during history but it's legitimately a Swedish region today and recognised as such by the world at large. Denmark would have no right to occupy it and the population can't vote itself out, if they really want to belong to a different country then they have to emigrate.
I like her ....intelligent and articulate and passionate. I particularly like her UN speech on Aleppo crimes when she attacked Russia and Assad. It made the world sit up and take notice.
+daniohs You don't show off that much leg unless you are looking for attention. If she was a stiff-lipped stoic, she'd have shown up in a pant suit, not in a short skirt and go-go boots. And I say, good for her. It's nice to see women that can be all things to all people. Too many people that think women have to give up their humanity in order to be "taken seriously", as if they can't be both. I really doubt you ever tried to chastise those fawning over the appearances of Barack Obama or Bill Clinton.
daniohs Sorry. Perhaps my attempt at humor was a little over your head. I guess I need to preface a sarcastic joke with a disclaimer for people like you. I figured most people who have read youtube comments would get that the "appropriate" comment was to mention how hot or not she was. Guess I was wrong.
Her Excellency Ambassador Power is very decent and intelligent politician. She is very compassionate and is always inclined to providing justice and rights of freedom for every free world citizen.
U.S. Created all the conditions of those countries. 1.) *_Afghanistan:_* Military invasion under the ruse of Osama Bin Laden being in some caves, which turned out to be utter B.S., and the primary control of the Opium poppy fields for drug sales to finance government engineered drug induced societal controls of its population. 2.) *_Crimea:_* U.S. Gave military weaponry and financed a coup d'état of the Russian allied Ukrainian government to replace it with a fascist regime, causing the Russian majority Crimea to seek the aid of it's parent nation Russia, thereby causing the retaliatory response from Russia and Russian citizenry of Crimea. 3.) *_Cuba:_* The U.S. Failed to realize the impact of the Cuban embargo until recent years, aside from the Cuban governments own missteps in handling its internal struggles of foreign trade. The U.S. Being subject to the wiles of the Canaanite state of Israel, continue their divisive rhetoric against Cuba because Cuba has been a key speaker in bashing the Canaanite state of Israel's hypocrisy on crimes against humanity in dealing with Palestine. Look things up for yourselves and don't just listen to the biased propaganda peddled by these forms of suggestive media *_PROGRAMMING_*
It’s an occupied State. People *have* disappeared. And Putin just poisoned his main political rival...again. But, please do tell how peaceful the Russians are after having stolen Crimea from Ukraine.

+BRVvideos That will happen if ANY Republican is elected. I'm not American and I wouldn't dream of telling Americans how to vote. The fact is, the Republican candidates have said they would repeal Obamacare, work on getting the Supreme Court to overturn the same sex marriage ruling, tear up climate change agreements, go back to the old status quo with Cuba etc. The Republicans essentially want to overturn as many Obama administration decisions as they can. If you agree with that, vote Republican. If you don't and want to maintain the direction Obama has taken the US in, vote Democrat.

Ironic how Cuba's limited access is from the US and not from the cuban government. Power says that they need to fix some humanitarian problems there , what is she referring to? Guantanamo, I guess. There are basically no illiterate people in Cuba, social health care with the 'best' MD's in the world, and no overwhelming drug problems. Can we say all this for the US? The answer is NO. The US and the UN are the most human rights violators in recent times. That includes their ways of destabilizing countries, creating civil wars and human rights violations.
Samantha Power has been a long-time real life heroine of mine. In addition to her brilliant work for the Obama Administration and Pulitzer Prize for A Problem from Hell she is an exceptionally graceful and righteous woman. We need more moral beacons of light to counteract the darkness that has encompassed large parts of the West over the past 5 years. I look forward to seeing what Ambassador Power will do at USAID and am enthused for her! I have several friends who are all really interested in foreign policy who are also theater and dramatic obsessed. We have a long-time obsession with Samantha Power's personal life story as akin to a major character in high fantasy. We also like listening to Lana Del Rey's songs about great American Lorde's album PURE HEROINE and comparing her to lyrics in Lorde's songs.
I don't get the insistence of the UN to force the Crimean people to rejoin the Ukraine. They had a secession vote and opted out of being part of Ukraine by an overwhelming majority. What gives them the right to intervene in the peoples innate right of self determination. The UN should get out of the way and respect the decision of the Crimean people.
She's an incredible woman and I can only hope to one day be even a bit as successful as her! Ambassador Power was also the commencement speaker at my high school graduation.
Her book about Sergio Vieira de Mello is just INCREDIBLE. I highly recommend to everyone interested in UN diplomacy. Samantha is an amazing person, amazing writer, amazing ambassador. The book is called "Chasing The Flame - Sergio Vieira de Mello and the fight to save the world".
+Nikola Maticki I thought there would be no one smart enough to understand that she's a massive bullshit artist, who should be tried for war crimes. Thank you!
+Harun Karbunkel I don't even know who or for whom she is. But this crazy bias is more than obvious if you approach media with even a slightest hint of distance.
+Frankish Empire Partly due to the fact no news comes out of Crimea that doesn't enter through the Russian propaganda media machine. You would be more comfortable in Afghanistan, believe it.
Very interesting comments indeed from a number of people below, Samantha Power generally speaking is probably a very nice person the fact that she may be disconnected from reality and therefore be part of the problem and not part of the solution is in the way regretfully and quite likely correct but as entertainment niceness sweetness loveliness and general international diplomacy which has been around in Europe for about 800 years she has to do her level best to keep up that image going , where some of the writers suggest people in her statue as part of the problem and therefore I completely agree to a large extent this is true , this is one of the reasons the world is fucked , I have to agree sadly you have to take these kind of people mostly with a pinch of salt and therefore attempts at being a diplomat like she is attempting to carry it off hopefully without stumbling and the fact indeed that she is flaunting her posture as a kind of a diplomat is somewhat laughable and regretful and may in and of itself make the rest of us look like idiots, but the simple matter is we must humour the situation,we have been completely conned but we go along with it, that's exactly what international diplomacy is about........ To add much of the keep diplomats round the world iare run by gay people mainly males and paedophiles they are picked for the cunning slyness and understanding perfectly how to completely manipulated ordinary little people .......much of the catholic church he's been running this way for years bottom line , think for yourself one and one mathematically still make two....,
Colbert is like the intelligent thinking persons nightly show... However it's kinda sad those other "silly and goofy" shows get way more views instead of one that actually might teach you a little something while having a laugh.

+Mark Kapran but still aint no one going to do shit to russia their the only military power that can match ours (them and china) that and looked what happened to turkey when they shot down a russian jet expecting the us to back them up what we do pretty much the international equivalent of nopeing the hell out of there because we cant afford a 3rd world war and if we wont start it for a fellow NATO nation why would we start it for a nation so unstable that belarus thought they where to fucked up
I go to Cuba almost every year, it's a lovely place simply due to the fact that no one from the U.S visits there.... and the beaches of course. Viva la Cuba libre!
Everybody needs to pay attention in history class or at least play fucking Civilization or something before they take political action. Such a breath of fresh air watching ambassadors talk about the political situations of different places. People that know things...
Yeah Cuba's human rights situation is atrocious. I mean have you seen that place Guantanamo in Cuba ? Horrific. Wait a minute...... On the other hand China and Saudi Arabia has incredible human rights.
AMERICAN tourists are prohibited in Cuba.... as a Canadian I can go whenever I want. I know people who go there on vacation in all included resorts every winter. Come on Americans, don't generalize....

I thought there would be no one smart enough to understand that she's a massive bullshit artist, who should be tried for war crimes. Thank you!
+Nikola Maticki Please explain. Thank you.
+Hector Tavera Ever heard about suicide attacks in Crimea? Neither have I.
+Harun Karbunkel I don't even know who or for whom she is. But this crazy bias is more than obvious if you approach media with even a slightest hint of distance.
+Frankish Empire Partly due to the fact no news comes out of Crimea that doesn't enter through the Russian propaganda media machine. You would be more comfortable in Afghanistan, believe it.
She is very intelligent and brave woman!!!! Obama , you have the best supporter in the World.
sad you can't go to ukraine for holiday, stephen? well crimea river.
thank you [exits]
I like it when a silly game can be very educational yet entertaining. thanks President Colbert.
Very interesting comments indeed from a number of people below, Samantha Power generally speaking is probably a very nice person the fact that she may be disconnected from reality and therefore be part of the problem and not part of the solution is in the way regretfully and quite likely correct but as entertainment niceness sweetness loveliness and general international diplomacy which has been around in Europe for about 800 years she has to do her level best to keep up that image going , where some of the writers suggest people in her statue as part of the problem and therefore I completely agree to a large extent this is true , this is one of the reasons the world is fucked , I have to agree sadly you have to take these kind of people mostly with a pinch of salt and therefore attempts at being a diplomat like she is attempting to carry it off hopefully without stumbling and the fact indeed that she is flaunting her posture as a kind of a diplomat is somewhat laughable and regretful and may in and of itself make the rest of us look like idiots, but the simple matter is we must humour the situation,we have been completely conned but we go along with it, that's exactly what international diplomacy is about........ To add much of the keep diplomats round the world iare run by gay people mainly males and paedophiles they are picked for the cunning slyness and understanding perfectly how to completely manipulated ordinary little people .......much of the catholic church he's been running this way for years bottom line , think for yourself one and one mathematically still make two....,
she should run for president
Colbert is like the intelligent thinking persons nightly show... However it's kinda sad those other "silly and goofy" shows get way more views instead of one that actually might teach you a little something while having a laugh.
why usa think we need they "values", im not in favor of the current cuban government but i dont need your values, i rather take european values instead
So smart and soft at the same time how wonderful...
"It is a Part of Ukraine , 100 united nations countries say so, it is illegal occupation "
cough* ... KOSOVO cough* cough*
Why not take a look at Ukraine/ Poland / Germany /CZECH/ Russia border changes for the last 150 years. It is very fluid yes? Si?
nice to see people in the government who are passionate and hardworking being represented well on TV.
Crimea is a part of Ukraine.
+Inna Voloshyna *was
+inna voloshyna the people of Crimea would disagree with you :-)
Good, that's exactly what I wanted. I wanted a video that would inform me on the main Party line with regards to the non-american world, and here it is! Glory to the United States of Arstotzka!
John Kerry looks good in a wig. Damn.
Respect for her! Very knowledgeable!
XD crimea will go back to ukrane that the biggest joke ive heard on this show so far
my question is who?
who will make that happen
+Mark Kapran meh ukrane ,ukraine it wont really matter went it all becomes a province of russia
+Mark Kapran ok idgf about putin or russia just telling the situation as it is no need be all edgy about it kid
+Mark Kapran they voted to be part of russia and you say its was unlawfully and before you come running all efgy saing howw russia rigged the election the results were verifided by the UN so the anexation was more then legit
ukraine ite been russia since the 14th century they have no cultural identity what so ever just faceit ukraine is more russia then idependent why do you think they have a civil war going onits because they them selfs dont like the shitty situation their indepence has gave them
+Mark Kapran but still aint no one going to do shit to russia their the only military power that can match ours (them and china) that and looked what happened to turkey when they shot down a russian jet expecting the us to back them up what we do pretty much the international equivalent of nopeing the hell out of there because we cant afford a 3rd world war and if we wont start it for a fellow NATO nation why would we start it for a nation so unstable that belarus thought they where to fucked up
Wow! How nice of America to decide to improve the "human rights situation" in Cuba!
I love her and want to be her
+Johnson Taylor Bruce, that's not funny!
+josh McGee really?? You also like bombing countries and overthrowing their governments??
I go to Cuba almost every year, it's a lovely place simply due to the fact that no one from the U.S visits there.... and the beaches of course. Viva la Cuba libre!
So how is the food there in Cuba? What did you have to eat while in Cuba?
her gestures are so obamaesque
such an inspiration
WHAT. Crimea is a part of Great and Mighty Russia. Get used to it
what an awesome human being
She should run for President, she'd be sooooo much better at being the first woman President than Hilary could ever be.
In this dark time of ignorance and bullshit, it's refreshing to see such a shining light on TV. You Americans should get his lady as your president.
I adore this woman
So awesome to see a beautiful intelligent woman speaking on a late night show. She should run for President in the future!
i'm curious if colbert heard anything past "you could go to cuba", because he was also told "you should go to cuba".
Watching this video talk about the Paris accord now, in 2017, is sad. So very sad.
need more of these great people working behind the scenes for a better world, instead of monetary interest.
She is excellent.
Everybody needs to pay attention in history class or at least play fucking Civilization or something before they take political action. Such a breath of fresh air watching ambassadors talk about the political situations of different places. People that know things...
Yes, I want a President Power. I would serve whole heartedly,
What a breath of fresh air!!!
humanitarianism > Creationist = “White Helmets”
00:28 that voice is incredible
crimea is a part of russia stop saying it's ocupation the people of crimea are okey with it they love russia so mind your own buisness americans
I like this Lady.
Yeah Cuba's human rights situation is atrocious. I mean have you seen that place Guantanamo in Cuba ? Horrific. Wait a minute...... On the other hand China and Saudi Arabia has incredible human rights.
Samantha Power for President.
Crimea Ukraine - love Samantha Power, love Barack Obama II, LOVE USA>>> !!!!!!!!!!!!! !
Great person, great interview
After talking about taking refuges nobody applause LOL
AMERICAN tourists are prohibited in Cuba.... as a Canadian I can go whenever I want. I know people who go there on vacation in all included resorts every winter. Come on Americans, don't generalize....
"Oh you can't go to Cuba! Bad bad human rights situation there!"
"Can I go to Saudi Arabia?"
"Sure!"
Samantha Powers for jail.
what a beautiful intelligent woman.
I wish I could join the U.N
