1:00 pm
hello and welcome to the news hour coming up in the next 15 minutes. >> iran has prove time and again, that it cannot be trusted. steal's prime minister makes his case against the nuclear deal with iran that a speech to the u.s. congress the battle for saddam hussein's
1:01 pm
hometown. >> and on world stage, we will see how the chinese government is pledging to join the fight. >> first, the israeli prime minister has warned the u.s. congress that against a possible nuclear deal with iran in a controversial address, netanyahu criticized current negotiations between u.s. and iranian officials in switzerland. he says the proposal does not prevent tehran from building atomic weapons and it would threaten the security of his country. netanyahu compares iran to the islamic state of iraq and the
1:02 pm
levant. >> so when it comes to iran and isis the enemy of youren my is your enemy. the difference is that isis is armed with bumper knives and youtube. whereas iran can be armed with missiles and nuclear bombs. we must always remember, i mr. say it one more time, the greatest danger facing our world is the marriage of militant islam with nuclear weapons. to defeat isis, and let iran get nuclear weapons would be to win the battle but lose the war. we can't let that happen.
1:03 pm
is there also rallying in support of it some said they have the right to develop power, and that most american oppose the speech. his supporters say he is trying to stop the spread of nuclear weapons in the middle east. >> for something that is much more than an election stunt even though it is being pushed by many as an election stunt in the reality, this is an aggressive move by the most war like elements of this government. to push an agenda, an aggressive agenda, for laying the path work, laying the stones laying the ground work, for an attack on iran snortly
1:04 pm
we will be talking in east jerusalem. first, to kimberly who watched netanyahu on capitol hill. and kim beforely, it is obviously a very very controversial debate, very controversy speech that he has made. but the controversy extended beyond the walls of congress, doesn't it? there is a strong feeling that divides along party lines but there is a concern about a foreign leader coming here and dictating american policy. win told me despite the fact that there was disappointed that there was ini havation by the top republican the house of representatives to the israeli prime minister, and
1:05 pm
the fact that there were dozens of democrats that did boycott this speech, that now it is a time for all members of congress to come together, because she said despite some of the damages that it has within done to the u.s. israeli relationship over this controversy, surrounding the speech that overall there is still consensus in the united states, on the issue of supporting israel, and the issue of peace. that the goals of both countries although there may be differences in policies goals are both are to see that the nuclear activities are strictly for peaceful purposes. we also hear from the top democrat in the house of representatives nancy pelosi. who really made a comment that was pretty strong, something that we don't typically hear, speaking critical of prime minister says in fact, that she was in her words near tears at the fact that the israeli prime minister suggested that the p 5 plus 1 countries simply did not have the ability to
1:06 pm
negotiate a deal with iran, that would allow for security for israel as well as for the rest of the world. that was a point that benjamin netanyahu made over and over. that no deal is better than a bad deal. obviously, there was some insult taken by the top democrats on capitol hill, who felt that that was a pretty insulting statement to make given the support that the u.s. congress has given for israel over the years. so that traditional support has been shaken? it certainly has been, there's no question that this caught the white house by surprise, it wasn't just the obama administration that feels this is undermined it's efforts to negotiate a deal with iran, one that is taking place right now as we have kerry speaking with his counter part, trying to secure a deal that the obama administration feels will bring about the peace that
1:07 pm
israel seeks that president obama said in interviews on monday evening that the diplomatic option is the best option that iran has and that this problem by the obama administration, and other nations that there would be strict supervision, is certainly if not in the view of israel going to do there ink to stop the advancement toward as nuclear weapon, which the case was made in the speech would not just threaten israel but the rest of the world kimberly live in washington d.c., thank you. our correspondent who is following events from west
1:08 pm
jerusalem, of course we have an election in israel in 12 days time. the prime minister addressing that deep seeded insecurity that a lot of israelis have. >> indeed. a speech that was carried on most news networks will come away quite satisfied with the speech although it should be said that the substance of the speech, which was about iran's nuclear program and there netanyahu's caution about it isn't something that is particularly a bread and butter issue with most. what really resonated with voters here is the fact is there you have the leader of israel, whoever it may be. addressing joint meeting of congress in the most powerful country in the u.s. the most powerful ally that israel has, and that's going to go down well. however.
1:09 pm
in saying that, there are also sections in the society which are deeply concerned by this speech. in fact you also have oppositions criticizing for making this speech saying he is only doing it to score points ahead of the election, and isn't doing what is in the best interest of israel, which in their view is ensuring that that doesn't have any bipartisan element, which my argue that this has because mr. netanyahu was invited by the speaker mr. boehner who is with the republicans and did not consult the white house. whatever the case, as we have been saying, there will still be many israeli whose will dupely satisfied that the leader of their country was able to make their case, in front of the congress his
1:10 pm
speech was carried live, and that will go down well with a lot. >> senior political analyst is here in the studio with me. explain to us why benjamin netanyahu is attacking his political porch so closely to the issue of iran. >> one so he doesn't speak about palestine and the fiasco not able to reach a peace deal. just to remind our viewers if netanyahu would have reached a deal, with the palestinians, there would have been no even theoretical threat by iran against israel. because iran would never eventual if it ever got the weapon. so certainly mr. netten yeah high school is trying to avoided all kinds of questions
1:11 pm
that he doesn't want to speak about in favor of the question of iran, because only when speaking of iran -- envoak the holocaust and nazi germany and so orth. the kind of rhetoric that instills fear in people's hearts and make him look presidential . >> but leave it on what conditions and what grounds. i think it is an issue for israel. it is not all politics right
1:12 pm
and israel is afraid that iran may have overdue influence in the region. at the end of the day to remind our viewers around the world, that it is israel, the united states, and iran, that are a major cause for a lot of trouble in the middle east from the instability and chaos, so iran is got an innocent party to what is going on. so at least let's admit that. is basically driving at what. >> at the end of the day when i listened and thought about what he said today there's only one conclusion you can come to. that were, is the only -- the option with against iran. and if you heard what netanyahu said a few years ago about iraq, his advice was a war against iraq.
1:13 pm
those that listen, must ignore his advice on iran. >> thank you very much indeed. >> well, a senior u.s. official has has not offered any concrete alternatives alternatives to a nuclear deal. this comes as the nuclear talks are taking place in switzerland and they appear to be making progress. the you rainian foreign minister has met john kerry this is all taking place -- both have expressed compromise. the deadline set by word powers how could netanyahu's speech impact this. so it seems as though they are getting momentum on the shores of late geneva, everyone is sounding rather positive will
1:14 pm
benjamin's remarks have any concrete ex on those talks? well martin, it's not as though the negotiators and the iranian foreign minister, are locked into a room where there's only white noise and they don't know what is going on in the outside world. but, u.s. officials insist that the talks are going to proceed regardless of who is speaking on the outside of those talks. because three negotiations are taking place between the p five plus one, led with by the united states, under the auspice oof the european union. and the european commission, and with the country of iran. they are trying to negotiate this deal. they understand israel's concerns. but this trying to negotiate in good faith, and this trying not to let the politics that have surrounded the debate on the appearance here in washington, have any influence
1:15 pm
on the actual work that they are troying to achieve. >> now earlier i mentioned in talking that the prime minister netanyahu had made iran the center piece of his re-election campaign, how far would you say that striking some kind of deal with iran has become a signature policy for the obama regime? of course as he enters his final two years in p office? >> well, it is certainly something that the obama administration has investigationed considerable time in. in 2013, this has been one of his top foreign policy priorities if indeed not his very top priority. he was just there in the past two weeks. he is back there again. two or three days and it is anticipated this the secretary will return for more meetings
1:16 pm
in switzerland with the delegation. because they are very focused on trying to see if a political frame work can be achieved by march 31st. but let's also not forget, when i asked the secretary of state when we were in london a couple of weeks ago, whether or not the obama administration was prepared to walk away, the secretary of state said he believed that the president was prepared to walk away, because that would indicate there was a fundamental underlying resistence to make the kind of concessions that the iranians would need to make, in order for the p five plus one to feel comfortable striking a deal. that was a very very stark and very frank admission from this administration, that this isn't going to go on forever and that they are not going to try to reach a deal just for the sake of reaching a deal. for now, thank you very much indeed. at the state department in
1:17 pm
washington, d.c. we have a lot more to come on this news hour, including tit for tat violence. as one of go rival governments there, formerly appoint as military commander. plus. we get a behind the scenes look at a warehouse where pro russian separatists are preparing for battle. and in sport we hear from two time world champion fernando alonzo, about why he won't be lining up for the opening race of the f 1 season. >> and the surf rounderring areas was launched on monday. militias and tribal fighters have joined the campaign to drive isil out. isil has controlled since june

support the fight were supporting isil. >> in this battle there shouldn't be anyone standing on the other side. in this battle we should all p united. they are standing with those who are killing our people, those who are killing the husbands of our women or daning our children. >> in this fight and previous ones iran is playing a leading role. the iraqi militias is equipping and advising are considered more effective than most units. sources on the ground say iranian commander is open hing coordinate the operation from the front lines. in the air, it is only iraqi aircraft, according to the military. the united states is helping in other ways but is not backing this major offensive. about 2,000 sunni fighters have joined the battle, a
1:20 pm
major question is how many more will join them. >> some leaders see the ballles a a launching point. but as the battle moves further into sunni provinces there's deepens involvement and some fear that the upon tenable can be bogged down in more conflict. al jazeera, baghdad. >> now forces loyal to libya's rival government have been carried out tit for tat air strikes. a fighter jet recognized parliament targeted the only working airport in the capitol. and legally installed government struck the oil porter and the airport. there was said to be only minor damage.

1:22 pm
and this is his so called operation dignity in action, which began last may after they left the united states, where he had been living for about 20 years. with guns tanks and aircraft his men have seized large areas of the east, from militias. they are also taking on fighters with groups to links to isil. isil has been threatens to use libya to enter europe. leer he talks about being one of the good guys. but he is a main player in one of the most complicated conflicts in this region. and it's not that simple. he has an obsession with power that dates back decades. he was one of the allies before turning against him even trying to topple him in the at least two occasions and had ambitions to lead libya. a much loftier title thanking

1:24 pm
past so as it was being driven away, they threw their flowers at the funeral as it left. of course there were dignitaries there as well, all 28 members sent representatives, a couple of notable exceptions, the polish senate leader was parred from entry to russia, apparently because that person is only the russian sanctions list, and the opposition figure here who is serving a 15 day jail sentence, had applied to be let out so that he could attend the funeral but that was turned down. as to the investigation, we are hearing things from the team, like they are looking at the footage, they are offing various channels of investigation, and they seized the various bits of evidence, but no arrest yet and no leads that we are hearing of. and the people on the p osix side friends and associates,

1:32 pm
iranian foreign minister is meeting the secretary of state. they say they are making gains against isil. they have taken control of high ground to the southeast that overlooks the city. all right some more now on our top story. the israeli prime minister warning the u.s. congress against the possible nuclear deal with iran, we can go life now to tehran. he is a political analyst and professor at tehran university. thank you for talking to us here. mr. et inen yahoo is claiming that iran can't be trusted and that despite the president's election, and arrival in office, the regime is as radical as ever. and that it will always be afternoon enemy to the united states.
1:33 pm
well, i don't think that the hisle laic republic of iran has been a foreign extreme. iran is a country that has never attacked it's neighbors over the past 300 years it has never launched a war. after the revolution, the only war that was launched was goops iran. chemical weapons were used and the iranians never retaliating. they never used or produced chemical weapons because the religious leaders believe that it was against islam to use weapons of mass destruction or to produce then. netanyahu on the other han has slaughters, he would shell schools claiming that weapons were hit in there camp like conditions so i think anyone but the most gullible would recognize that if anyone is
1:34 pm
like the nazis it is those that advocate scionism. zionism. early signs are fairly optimistic, is that something that is resinated in toran that the possible of a deal is reality. >> . >> well the expectations are that the united states would accept the rights and that includes iran's fur rights to have a peaceful program, they are willing to be flexible and to slow down progress in order to build confidence. at the u.n. security council sanctions that were passed
1:35 pm
under morn pressure many years ago, they too must be removed. that is what they would consider to be a good deal. from the iranian perspective the situation is quite clear. the i.a.a. has never produced any information, showing otherwise. even the israeli regimes intelligence units they have as you have pointed out a few days ago. they are documents that have been revealed sense to the south african intelligence. they have been abiding by international law and that the nuclear program is completely legitimate. >> the transparency that iran
1:36 pm
is subject itself to, in order to boost the confidence of those. exactly what the capability of the nuclear program currently is and indeed, this break out period that is so controversial. it is a matter of access, isn't it? i think if one looks at the documents one would see that iran is now the most tran parent in the world. it has the most heavilien motored nuclear program on the planet and all aspect from beginning to end are monitors. so a lot of what some people think is based on the false rhetoric that -- the israeli regime's prime minister, and people like him put out there
1:37 pm
the israeli regime for two decades has been saying that iran is on the verge of developing a nuclear weapon. it is one or two years away, it has been saying this for two decades. anyone with common sense would recognize that it is basically an attempt to mislead the public opinion. and etch in this speech, the regime's prime minister has implicity threatened iran. ien rah has spoken of israel and that it should crease to exist, because iran believes it to be apartheid regime. can i ask you one final question, and ask you whether you think that the hostile term that was adopted by benjamin netanyahu to warm applause and standing ovations whether you think that the introduction of this is going to have an impact a direct impact, on how congress feels
1:38 pm
collectively about the talks of it being pursued and indeed those talks that are taking place in switzerland? do you think his speech will have an effect on the momentum that we seem to be getting at the moment? >> it's hard to say. but what does reveal that the the united states is unique, and that it is really the only country in the world where some small foreign regimes leader can come to it's congress, or to it's parliament and have more authority and more popularity among the political establishment than the president itself. this shows the extend of the influence in the united states and the lobby in the united states. and this is thing that americans should be concerned about. and that israel is more influential than he is but
1:39 pm
the iranians at the end of the day, they will be looking at a possession of paper in the americans are working on with them. for the public opinion all sanctions must be moved and that the rights must be preserved but iran would be flexible, in order to resolve any questions that may exist. but ultimately, the united states has to recognize, that it's interests should not be dictated to -- it's interests should not be second degree in comparison the the interests oif regime. >> okay, mo happen mad, thank you very much indeed for your point of view thank you. >> since it was revealed that isil kill add jordanian pilot last monday, jordan has become more affective in trying to crush the group. the government has also cracked down on it's sympathizers from home.
1:40 pm
jordanians reacted with outrage of their pilot. had evaporated overnight. amonth later support for the government is still high, and new opinion polls suggest 88% of jordanians backed their military's role in the coalition but there are unavoidable fears for what may come even among supporters. people should be extra vigilant because they may enter jordan and attempt to carry out bombings all they seek is destruction. >> after the pilot's murder, jordan responded withen a air campaign against isil. the army said this was just the beginning but without major torn military aid, it is difficult to say how far it would go. >> we said that as part of the
1:41 pm
coalition, will be looking into ways to help iraqi pill tear, to open h the kurdish to help the syrian population. fight terrorism, that is occupying it's villages and cities and we continue to have that discussion. >> isil threats haven't stopped last week the armed group published a video the speaker who is jordanian called on his tribe to stand by isil. security sources estimate that more than 2,000 jordanians have fought in syria and that there are up to 7,000 so called jihadi sympathizer inside the country. since the murder, the government has intensified it's crack down on these groups arresting 90 people in the last month. sperm security is mow the top challenge, and the government says it is not taking any chances. this only a iraqis said they joined armed groups because
1:42 pm
the government made it easy for them to do so. >> otherwise make their lives impossible within. >> security has been heightened everywhere, on the streets and an shopping malls. the biggest challenge now fighting isil abroad and containing the supporters at hope. syrian government air strikes have killed at least four people in the country side, the attack reportedly happened in the town, other regimes have targeted the town in the south of the country. a suicide car bombing has killed at least 14 people. ain't joe army and police patrol was targeted in the district, ten personnel and four civilians died. this week the army launch as
1:43 pm
campaign. >> killing at least eight houthis rebels who were inside the building. the blast happened 12 others were wounded in the bombing. it's believed the lootties were attacked by tribes opinion in the area. afternoon can leaders and european leaders are meeting to discuss the ebola crisis. they are expected to look beyond the immediate challenge of the virus but also how to support the countries effected by the epidemic? the long term. it is more than a year since the world's worst outbreak of the disease and despite the fact that the spread is slowing specialists agree that far more needs to be done to wipe the virus out completely. >> let's go live mow, and we are talk to manuel fontaine who is the regional director for central and western africa.
1:44 pm
tell me, what have humanitarian organizations learned about operating in west africa in particular as a result of this? what we have learned from this particular response, is the incredible importance of working with communities. making sure to engage them. families persons and communities have difficulty accepting the disease and understanding what it is and preventing it. so it is this dialog that is extremely important. and they need to be at the community level working with everyone. >> the companies that seem to be worse effected, liberia sierra leone, they have been weakened marketly by conflict
1:45 pm
in recent years so therefore hay had the weakest held systems. the leader of liberia is urging a martial plan, do you think that's likely given that the pledging that have been made to help with the crisis haven't even termized? i think what is clear coming up from the conference, is there's a real commitment by all actors. the government of the three countries but also key donors, institutional financial organizations, and then all the groups like the u.n. and other organizations. everyone wants to work on this whether the pledges are going to materialize is we will see. terribly sorry, it is very loud there in brussells today isn't it, but so what are you
1:46 pm
hoping to achieve? practically speaking from this conversation that you are having now with regional leaders and with european officials. >> we are not at a zero yet. the social services how we will have a real social protection system in these countries so that children who have lost parents and care givers will be taken care of and supported and making sure that the commitment from everyone, as we mention ped earlier, the commitment materialize and that he don't lose focus.
