on what you look at the iran deal i think it's terrible i guess you were joking. tillerson al pompei when issue us president trump replaces a secretary of state months after after months of a strained relationship. russia defies an ultimatum from the u.k. over the poisoning of a former spy. and we'll have the latest from the u.s. on a tightly contested special election that could impact president trump's agenda. to scientists stephen hawking has died at the age of seventy six his work focused on the evolution of the universe in his book a brief history of time was an international bestseller and a statement as children pay tribute to their father said he was an extraordinary man whose work and legacy will live on for many years and behavior looks back on his life and achievements. i this was and i thought the clue was in accolades

stephen hawking was often treated like a rock star scientist millions revered him prison gift of communicating complex matters to the masses the common man's genius. we are alive we are intelligent who can decode some of the most enigmatic mysteries of the universe its origins structure and end from big bang to black hole his life was also an enigma nine hundred sixty three hawking was always twenty one a student to cambridge university when he was diagnosed with a degenerative motor neuron condition he was given just two and a half years but went on to live for more than half a century taught me a lot. because we're worse off. than before i developed the condition i am like me work.

in which disability is not a serious handicap. as the disease progressed talking lost mobility and had to rely on a wheelchair his speech then began to slow an emergency operation rope to move his voice but not for long. serially. turn to a speech synthesiser which allowed him to select was by moving the muscles of his cheek it was a tedious process but warm that gave him the ability to express his pine airing ideas it also gave the british cosmologist his trademark american accent. dark hawking was respected early on in scientific circles but helping prove the big bang theory when the universe burst into existence sporting billion years ago global acclaim came in one thousand nine hundred eighty eight with the release of his book a brief history of time the introduction to cosmology was

a runaway hit stealing more than ten million copies and eventually translated into dozens of languages hawking's only magnified with time a pop culture figure he gets started on shows such as the simpsons and star trak. again. the first. public pass a nation with hawking culminated in the blockbuster hollywood film of his remarkable life the theory of everything the universe is expanding if you will first time in the universe going to stephen hawking devoted his life to seeking answers to the questions of our existence and in doing so he helped us to pay a deeper into how our universe was. an astronomer at swinburne university of technology and joins us via skype from melbourne thank you very much so he really was a a rock star his name everybody knew his name has not happened for a scientist had a breakthrough that way. i think professor hawking was

a unique figure for many reasons scientific work was beyond compare of course his ability to communicate that signs to many millions really elevated is stature but i actually think it was his sense of humor he had a wicked sense of humor and ability to explain the most incredible of ideas with that rai expression and turn of phrase all combined with his perseverance through the debilitating disease he was a unique figure and that really did elevate him to worldwide to claim him and started to mention did he cultivate that stardom perhaps as a way to get people who really either wouldn't pay attention or wouldn't understand the things he's talking about if he cared to use it as as a bridge to that i think he made the best of his his fame quite frankly he often spoke i avoid issues that concerned him from the status of stem

science technology engineering mathematics funding as well as the more esoteric of worries like should we be communicating into space police know that there are aliens out there he wasn't afraid to. to go out and to to speak his mind and to inform and educate the population of the world and i think we will all be the poorer for his assay even even so he was unnecessarily and as overtly political is is the other famous scientist that everybody knows albert einstein but how would you compare and contrast the two of them. well i think they're they're both geniuses and hawking really took einstein's theory his work on general to body to the extremes to black holes and that's where he made his most famous contribution that of porking radiation turning what was an inescapable gravitational prison in the era of einstein to an object that in fact fades when

ultimately dies there are similarities there they were popular figures einstein was more politically active but hawking didn't shy away from a fight either i think it's safe to say while he may not have worked as diligently in the political sphere certainly his communication of science and inspiration to millions was just as market as einstein's so going forward what will his and this is a big long question but i need a short answer what do you think is his influence will be going forward for millions of us the name hole he will be so honest with genius his ideas will live on for decades and may take centuries to prove alan def a thank you so much for your time appreciate it thanks for having me. outgoing u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson is urging a smooth transition after his dismissal by donald trump if you twitter one of his top aides released a statement saying chiller son was unaware of why he was forced out and then that

official later fired as well the democrats say it's yet another sign of chaos and the white house says policy differences are to blame the two had disagreed over a number of issues including the iran deal and the blockade of qatar tillerson will be replaced by cia director mike pompei oh he has advocated a more aggressive stance on north korea and iran and his job will go to china haskell she is set to become the first female leader of the cia we'll have more on that in a moment first jordan looks back at the friction between tillerson and. it's not every day you lose your job as social media but an emotional rex tillerson deliberately ignored that detail when he addressed reporters on tuesday received a call today from the president i had stage at a little after noon time from air force one my commission as secretary of state will terminate at midnight portion thirty first tillerson served as u.s.

secretary of state for a little more than a year he spent much of that time pushing back against reports that the president donald trump wanted to fire him on tuesday morning on twitter trump did just that mike pompei a will become our new secretary of state thank you to rex tillerson for his service . trump then told reporters this we disagreed on what you look at the iran deal i think it's terrible i guess it was ok i want to use a regular something he felt a little bit differently so we were not really thinking the same looking back it's clear trump and tillerson disagreed on the big problems of the day whether or not to engage directly with north korea how far to hold russia accountable for brits meddling in u.s. political and civic affairs something tillerson made a point of stressing the u.s. must do ultimately former u.s. diplomats say taylor since firing is no surprise and neither is the choice of his

replacement the cia director mike pompei oh he's well known for his support of trumps policy trump is impulsive and trump is temperamental trump wants wants and neighbors in validators more than he wants advisors tillerson didn't have many fans at state because of his plans to cut staffing by nearly thirty percent some senior diplomats quit in protest but the firings at state didn't end there at lunchtime the white house dismissed under secretary of state steve goldstein after he released this statement suggesting tillerson thought his job was safe the secretary did not speak to the president this morning and is unaware of the reason for his dismissal in any case tillerson said he had no regrets rex tillerson didn't lose his job because he didn't agree with the president analysts say he lost his job because he refused to pretend that he agreed

if confirmed my pump ale will face a very high standard of agreeing with the president all the time especially because the president believes he already does rosalynn jordan al-jazeera the state department. rostral finegold is a republican political strategist and joins us from taipei in taiwan thank you very much or are you concerned about how this firing this dismissal played out. well it is what it is and we all know very well president trump style so the fact that he used twitter to announce this really should come as no surprise and there are there will be the criticism that it shows instability within the trump administration at the highest levels but the reality is president trump is taking ownership now of who his secretary of state is and he said very clearly yesterday that there were some disagreements with the style with secretary chiller sin and as your colleague indicated he selecting somebody in peo with whom he has

a good relationship so president trump is taking ownership of this decision and we're going to have to move forward from there ok so good point let's to move forward in the coming months this meeting is supposed to happen between the leader of north korea donald trump or are you concerned about the timing of this that it's a couple of months out from that there's so much instability at state there haven't been fully staffed in over a year and that amounted to secretary of state yes i understand that you know your point about that he seems to be more in line with donald trump but still a lot of change with so much on the line so soon. that's a very fair point to make and there's a really good aster see that issue as well which is where our pump a it was coming from so as opposed to somebody coming from say the congress or even outside the government even if they had foreign policy experience pumping i was going to the top of the national security apparatus in his current job at the cia

so it's not as if he's run from a leader with the issues were obviously with the intelligence in fact he's intimately familiar with the intelligence he's intimately familiar with us positions on these various issues and because he meets with the president nearly every day to discuss these issues he's fully briefed and in fact he's to some he's been briefing the president so yes it's not ideal to have this kind of change in advance of this important meeting with kid if it actually happens but we are putting in place somebody who is very familiar with all sides of the issue that's a that's a good point i mean it said that might come payoff from work directly out of the white house so that now that it seems that that donald trump in my compare are more on the same page about north korea what does that mean to you about how this is all going to put could potentially play out with north korea. well we know that the north koreans are very unlikely to keep their end of any deal so the concern from the u.s. side is really going to come to what to really offer them to put over the caribbean

said they're going to do from their side it's extremely hard to verify and again based on past experience they usually don't keep up their end of the bargain so the question becomes what will the united states offer if anything in any bilateral discussion that they have with north koreans whether at the working level or ultimately have the principals level between the two leaders and again compare was certainly going to be familiar with what the united states is prepared to offer and ultimately again this is really up to president trump he's taking ownership of this so the advisors whether it's at the cia or the state department now it's a person moving from the cia to the state department only need communications from the president to act on him president trump is going to be the one who has the final say on what exactly the united states is prepared to offer ross terrifying will always get when you can join us thank you very much russia has not responded to an ultimatum from the u.k. over the poisoning of a former spy prime minister three some may have given moscow till the end of two

say to explain how a soviet era nerve agent was used in the attack against service cripple and his daughter barnaby philips reports. is this the lull before the storm the british government says it's looking at ways of responding to what it believes is now re just backed by russia this is part of a pack of behavior a buy that putin and his regime and you'll seeing this reckless support for the use of chemical weapons all the way from syria to the streets of the. country. being encouraged by the determination of our friends to stand with us except that friends aren't so predictable these days the american president shortly after sacking a secretary of state who was highly regarded by the british government says it sounds to him as if russia was involved in the nerve agent attack but in moscow the russian foreign minister said britain was being obstructive refusing to give russia

samples of the nerve agent so that it could carry out its own investigation. russia is not guilty but russia is ready to cooperate in the framework of the chemical weapons convention only only to the united kingdom takes pains to fulfill their legal obligations or cling to the same document that was the london's luxury properties luxury shops could britain target russians who spend money here an anti corruption group estimates more than a billion dollars of suspicious russian wealth is invested in u.k. property well it's certainly the case that some of the individuals that we've identified in this research are well known to the kremlin so if they were to find themselves subjected to police investigations by unexplained well for days for example then that would send a very clear message to the kremlin the corrupt individuals and their illicit cash and no longer welcome here british politicians want to send

a message to russia that they won't tolerate what they see as a brazen attack on british soil but they also hope to cooperate with russia on issues like containing. iran the north korea's nuclear ambitions in other words russia's international significance presents britain with a diplomatic dilemma britain says it's ready to act but if this crisis escalates western unity could come under great strain to be phillip's al jazeera. still ahead on al-jazeera calls for help from the international community is violence continues democratic republic of congo plus. i'm going to report on the increase in. water in a bid to try and restrict. the capital which makes a great if. when nature is transformed into a commodity big business takes

everything changed last thing i'm no longer something that i thought i thought i was a solid there's a long line and i got a model that was that i left to learn by and by night again and i would never leave your thought them. and as i had a rather mind that hasn't got a room in mind that i got a young. adult novel out on my back about anglo hulet that in the last crackdown would not even know what of the. book i actually did that i'm not i would have thought out a good as a little don't want to give. the u.n. has called. violence a textbook example of ethnic cleansing an allegation the myanmar government rejects but fatima says many of her friends and relatives are still missing after more than

fifty people were gunned down in her village mali and i must say as our lot in life . i was so mother. as a whole what i love my whole. life i hope. then that. since arriving in bangladesh fatima's only comfort has been her family but now she's going to lose them to. them. she has never met her future husband the only advice her rod can give on the eve of her wedding is to be an obedient wife. a fantastic lot of. our involvement in iraq and. honor and over the island. these are words of little comfort to fashion her life is about to change for ever

was enough trouble i'd never get out i'm with ya you know some of them love and muscle but this was not this love them for didn't. i didn't lose. friends and family have a right to congratulate the bride and help her get ready to hand out. that none of that yeah that everything that fatima is inconsolable. at. a relative family members a fighting about who will keep her waiting mike up there. there's not a lot. and

then and. meanwhile fashion assaults are ignored. was. finally it's time for her to go. this fatima is being taken by her future father in law to his home for the wedding
