welcome to the program our top story israel's prime minister saying iran is pursued a secret nuclear weapons program and lied to international observers about it in breach of the two thousand and fifty new deal benjamin netanyahu gave an order of visual display claiming to have conclusive proof of the program from documents obtained from to iran iranian state t.v. is dismissed as propaganda and iran's foreign minister says it's all a ploy to nix the nuclear deal calling us the latest. it wasn't you know suspicious start a technical glitch with the audio meant a brief delay describing a highly sophisticated intelligence operation this was an innocent looking compound it looks like at the love pitted where holes. but from the inside israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu says his intelligence agents tracked the paperwork from an iranian nuclear weapons program to this building and that they were able to take

this. proudly displaying paperwork and disks he says were from iran according to his own visuals the program ended in two thousand and three but he alleged it continued in secret using these visuals and television performance to send the message the iran deal the nuclear deal is based on logs it's based on iranian lies any rain in the separation one hundred thousand files right here prove that their log at the white house it was clear the u.s. president was impressed by what he saw i think of anything what's happening today and what's happened over the last little while and what we've learned has really shown that i've been one hundred percent right that matters because by may twelfth the president will decide if the u.s. sanctions will continue to be waved under the iran nuclear deal negotiated between

the u.s. iran and five other countries around foreign minister dismissed the new allegations tweeting breaking the boy you can't stop crying wolf is at it again undeterred by cartoon fiasco at unga you can only fool some of the people so many times the president has said nobody knows what he's going to do perhaps trying to build suspense but there seems a lot less of that after what he saw on his t.v. pedicle hain al-jazeera washington well i spoke to change the posse the president of the national iranian american council it warned that iran will be watching we sent about it will be watching what happens between the u.s. and north korea very closely. the iranians are paying attention to what happens to north korea and if the north koreans get a deal with the united states that the u.s. then respects and it hears too it's likely that the iranians will conclude that their mistake was that the went to the negotiating table when they only had uranium enrichment if they had done what the north koreans did which is to have

a bomb test a bomb and also produce a delivery mechanisms for that on the united states in concert a table strike a deal and here to it that's where the dangerous we are creating an incentive structure for iraq to actually go from in the transition. i selous claim responsibility for a double suicide attack in central kabul which killed at least twenty five people and injured dozens more nine journalists were among those killed making it the west a for media in afghanistan since two thousand and one jennifer glass reports from kabul on the almost zero zero the first suicide bomber was on a motorbike eisel says the target was intelligence headquarters but the explosion killed civilians and policeman in the street every day added the limb for policeman the from district nine who were at the front line but were among those matson and

three policemen were wounded as well at the emergency workers rushed to the scene to aid the wounded. afghan cameraman reporters and photographers who come to cover the news became part of the story when a second suicide bomber disguised as a journalist blew himself up among such attacks could create existential threats against press freedom and freedom of expression in afghanistan which is considered one of the biggest achievements of the country in the past seventeen years i've got to start who's got the most vibrant media in the region this is supposed to be a secure part of kabul home to not only intelligence headquarters but nato the u.s. embassy and various aid organizations in the capital these days nothing feels safe . another eisel bombing last week killed at least sixty people and injured one hundred ten afghans lined up to register to vote with the target not only in kabul but elsewhere too in kandahar in southern afghanistan a suicide car bomb attack on

a nato convoy killed at least eleven civilians including children several nato soldiers and afghan policeman were injured the afghan president has described these attacks as were crimes terrorist acts in conflict with islamic values and human. right and the afghans blame the government for not doing enough to prevent them jennifer glass al jazeera kabul earlier i spoke to major investigative journalist who used to be based in afghanistan she says the attack is a devastating blow for the small tight knit media community there and i think today is meant to go down as one of the deadliest is an afghan media press history and and press is one of the few sort of you know big accomplishments of the post nine eleven order compared to other countries in the region compared to iran pakistan especially what's happening. in you know certain countries in the arab world afghanistan really does have

a very strong and independent. press scene and today is a devastating blow to that small community as president donald trump has again reaffirmed his belief in a border war with mexico one of the key policies of his election campaign it comes as a group of hundreds of refugees and migrants from central america stuck just across the southwest in order a so-called migrant caravan has been making its way north across mexico for more than a month trump assaulted border security just stop him from entering the u.s. but says more permanent measures are needed. but we have to have changes in congress and we have to have it quickly we need a wall number one and you see that right now you know where they are even though it's not a particularly good will it even though a small percentage can climb to the top they have to be the extremely good shape but a small percentage can climb that particular wall we have a wall that's much more difficult but if you didn't have that you'd have thousands of people just pouring into our country you've got to have

a wall. annular apollo's on the mexican side of the border in taiwan a so we know this is a group of about one hundred fifty to two hundred immigrants making a very difficult journey from central america across mexico now to the u.s. border they finally reached tell us what's happened to them now. margaret activists told us that around fifty individuals were allowed by mexican officials to cross over to the u.s. border inspection facility yesterday but were unable to be processed by border officials another one hundred fifty of those those are the ones that you see behind me have been saying here for what is now the second day in a row they were expecting to be granted the opportunity to turn themselves into border authorities well over twenty four hours ago but were they were unable to do so overnight a group of around fifty individuals reportedly stayed here camped out. a cold couple of days and you want to a lot of them braving the elements others went back to a nearby shelter again regrouping in the daylight hours and once again waiting here

trying to figure out whether or not today would be the day that they would have that opportunity to turn themselves into border authorities it's worth noting that today is children's day it's a sort of the reason why you're seeing a lot of a lot of kids behind me some of them are playing soccer some of them seem like they're in good spirits there have been lots of charity organizers and other volunteers that have brought them food they brought them clothes and toys a much needed distraction from an otherwise confusing and stressful scene that's played out as a lot of people here still don't know what's going on they don't know when they're going to have that opportunity to cross over and plead their case to border officials so for for most of them for all of them here today it's still a waiting game it is and we can see that the group of fifty migrants that remain they've camptown out but they are nonetheless stuck in this sort of no man's land between the two countries the entry point between mexico and the u.s. how long are they going to be able to stay there for will the mexican authorities

dismantle these makeshift camps at some point. that appears to be anybody's guess we have to keep in mind that these are individuals that have been travelling for a month now across mexico most of them are from central america most of them are are from honduras other ones others are from both a mile and inside of either one so for many of them they've been travelling for well over a month what they've said to us is that they've been through so much their journey has been so long what's another couple of days we really get the sense that they're willing to stay here as long as it takes it was raining earlier today which is why you're seeing several tarps that have been set up behind us they're sort of preempting more rain this afternoon and they're saying that even if it rains even if even if it gets cold it won't dissuade them from staying here as long as it takes to be given that opportunity to go to the u.s. border inspection facility to plead their case to authorities what we're hearing overwhelmingly from individuals is that they don't want to do anything illegal they're not trying to storm the born or there were individuals that climbed atop the border fence they did not cross over at that demonstration that took place

yesterday they don't want to do anything illegal they want to use the existing asylum laws in the united states to plead their case for asylum by u.s. border authorities and under an international law these individuals do have the the right to do so. well thank you very much money or apollo giving us the picture of the of the migrants are doing now on their they aren't their tail on the mexican side of the border. present comedy has become the first sub-saharan african leader to meet donald trump at the white house on the agenda was security trade and the economy but one infamous topic wasn't discussed as alan fischer explains a new sign of tension instead warm hunch it's for the first sub-saharan african leader to visit the trump white house the president of nigeria made no mention of my comments attributed to donald trump several months ago when he questioned letting nigerians visit america it's claimed that president donald trump made

derogatory comments about several countries during a discussion on immigration the white house several months ago and when talking about nigeria in particular it was claimed that he said why would the other although nigerians into the u.s. because they wouldn't want to go back to their quote mud huts there the white house has pushed back against that saying that conversation never happened but we do know that the u.s. ambassador to was called in for consultations with nigerian government officials through their talks covered trade security and the battle against corruption the u.s. has recently sought military helicopters to nigeria it is military trainers in the country and is supporting the push against boko haram fighters the white house is also wary of the increasing economic presence in china across africa hopes africa and nigeria will turn to the u.s. as a trading partner i think maybe more than anything else will we discussed today was our agricultural products going into nigeria which nigeria wants but we have

certain barriers that don't allow that to happen so for the good of our farmers u.s. farmers and for the good of nigeria and all of africa it's very important that we are able to sell our great agricultural produce products. the nigerian president thank the u.s. for its military support i'm pleased to surgeons in the u.s. economy and asked for their help in recovering funds siphoned out of nigerian government accounts hard to governments if with the machinery in place forgot a script to go to new generals to collaborate in. return to nigeria over five hundred million now to save their lives over looted funds the two presidents walked out of the rose garden and back to the white house partly the warmth of the sun also warming relations between the two men alan fischer al jazeera at the white house still ahead for you on the program sending a message to the world that they are not defeated the palestinian national council meets for the first time in twenty two years and a u.n.

and the foreign minister in amman on the final leg of his three day middle east tour on the abdel-hamid reports from amman. if you out his trip the israeli palestinian conflict didn't seem a priority in our mended newly appointed u.s. secretary of state was reminded it remains the main stumbling block to was achieving regional peace the two state solution remains the only path to the pieces we believe in jordan it is the solution that would allow for the emergence over an independent sovereign palestine states jordanian leaders also worried about the even of the u.s. embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem but maintained that final boundaries with the in jerusalem are up for negotiation with respect to the two state solution the parties will ultimately make the decision about what the right right resolution is we certainly open to a two two party solution that's a likely outcome we certainly believe that the israelis and palestinians need to

need to have political engagement there was no combination however of the recent demonstrations along the gaza border fence with israeli snipers shot on protest killing dozens and injuring hundreds book a limited himself to saying that israel had the right to defend itself the u.s. secretary of state didn't seem to share the jordanian view that this really palestinian conflict is the main source of instability in the middle east instead he pointed to other conflicts in the region but throughout his trip it was clear that iran and the uncertain future. the nuclear deal where the media priority for the us administration in riyadh and tel aviv wrapped up the rhetoric on iran threats to middle east ability to the delight of his hosts iran destabilize the entire region that supports proxy militias and terrorist groups and arms it is an arms dealer to the who the rebels. and iran conducts cyber hacking

campaigns. supports the murderous assad regime as well iranian missiles are also a concern of israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu of his focus on the risk of being fired from iranian bases in syria and by hezbollah from lebanon. need to now apparently couldn't be more pleased with the appointment grinning and warmly congratulating him their language at times interchangeable we remain deeply concerned about iran's dangerous escalation of threats to israel in the region and iran's ambition to dominate the middle east remains the people thought the iran's aggression would be moderated as a result of signing to do the opposite is open and iran is trying to gobble up one country after the other. has flown back to washington but if tough talk on iran please some lack of significant commitment to. this running middle eastern conflict
