the sultan in istanbul was the kaleb of islam the leader of the muslim world. whichever side you were on there was a close bond with the calle of respect and loyalty for him across the arab world. and incident later in the war illustrated this clearly. the british captured seven hundred iraqi soldiers in one thousand nine hundred seventy eight and sent them to egypt. the british offer to free the person as if they'd support an arab revolt against the ultimate led by saudi for saying of mecca but few iraqis accepted most were uneasy at the idea of challenging the caylus. books such as the one thousand nine hundred thirty eight work by george antonius the arab revolt exaggerated the support of shoddy hussein's one thousand nine hundred sixteen revolt against the ottomans and exaggerated and painted a very negative image of on him in

a rule of four hundred years of ottoman rule and even many european colonialists tended to denigrate the ottoman past and to the point of referring to it as so despotic and backward that it almost welcomed the arrival of european colonialism. the ultimo army was also diverse in november nine hundred fourteen up to three hundred thousand of their troops were arabs from greater syria. of the army's nine most senior commanders two were all bamian two from the caucuses and two arab . and in politics saeed halim pasha the grand vizier all prime minister was from egypt. the british had to find a way to challenge this holy bonet between the kaleb in istanbul and his loyal arab muslim citizens. they approached hussein bin ali the sheriff of mecca

he was a descendant of the prophet muhammad leader of the hush my people and ruler of islam's most holy place. the british thought he alone could challenge the kayleigh from istanbul. but he would not be straightforward. on the eve of world war one most arabs were largely supportive of the ottoman empire. they regarded it as a protector of the an islamic identity in an era of expanding european colonialism even many arab christians and jews especially after one thousand eight welcomed the liberal reforms and wrote glowingly hand the of these reforms and these iraq and rarely ever call for independence for the arab people. to nineteen away it was a significant here in this unfolding story that was when the new leaders of the

committee of union and progress the young turks staged a coup removing sultan of those from me the second from power. they started hours in ninety eight with a project of trying to. get there on the basis of course. but it is same time they found themselves in the position of trying to defend it maintain them. it gains more reporting to actions and it is a new nationalist a presence from within. when the young turks reconvened parliament they created optimism in the arab world but this soon turned to disillusionment. all the may not have intended it that they found themselves fighting to me in n.p.p. treat. for nine hundred eleven on its front. italy's in the nation only on once

then came the mark wars and then there came the great and did this change this transforms the initial act of promising and bringing freedom to not peoples into one of the nineteen in. defeat in the balkans harden the young turks and they tighten their grip on their arab possessions the mark on wars of nineteen twelve thirteen and catastrophe defeat and finally the action from what had been blocked alkaloids brought about an enormous fun to jump in the development and education of turkish nationalists and also they became more and more dictatorial. the young turks had hoped to stay out of the war and ally themselves with britain and france but neither of these two countries would go against russia so they were not an option. besides the ultimate

and germany had a history of friendship. vilhelm the second first visited istanbul in eight hundred eighty nine to befriend sultan. nine years later he landed at five on a state visit to the ultimate east. he made a ceremonial entry into jerusalem. and visited the tomb in damascus of salahuddin the famous mediæval muslim oreo who defeated the crusaders. there was mass celebration when he announced the germany would pay for the renovation of his grave. the kaiser also declared his friendship of the world's three hundred million muslims and gained the nickname haji vilhelm so germany was

a natural ally. but the young turks were also gambling that the european war might be over quickly. at the time there were theories and. prospect of voice in europe that in fact the civilized european powers would not fight each other for very long that this was a crisis but a cry for that might. come to an end funeral rather than later ultimately that there would be able to favor the alliance with germany which they had signed for seven years not necessarily protection but an alliance with germany that would help the ottoman state to consolidate its. its borders its institution and to restrain from in that period under which they would have germany as an ally

. however germany needed this deal as much as the ultimates. and. they were outnumbered on the ground in europe i could open a new eastern front against russia and the british. the german general eric luden doff wrote that ultimate entry into the war enabled the central powers to soldier on for another two years otherwise the war might well have been over by nine hundred sixteen. this is the house in istanbul of on water pasha he led the secret negotiations with germany on behalf of the young turk or unionist government. here on the night of the first of august one thousand nine hundred fourteen he secured his treaty of alliance.

and wapato was a fan of everything german he spoke the language trained in military college there and admired the way chancellor autobahn bismarck had modernized the state. they had enormous admiration for passion is for be spark in is and for the germans on that rick germany had to follow its own special path and it was envisioned as and it became a path in which the german military the german army played god to the nation and the state it was perceived and it really was true to a large extent that the german nation and the german state were called prof in a very strong sense by prussia and the pression army and this is what the spark in his was all about the union ists perceive themselves as poor shewing a kind of pressure. path in the context of feltham an empire. i did it wasn't just

the young turks who had ma germany some arabs were impressed by its achievements national unity military expansion scientific research and economic development. the lebanese why to this layman thirty go to a poem called a twentieth century book. of money feet he said told me he had to get to sit. down and feed and if you gave me a small. lead few would leave i did get on. they seem to move for whom one looked to solve the problem for more status.

in august one hundred fourteen and one posthumous treaty was still a secret. but in the second week of november came the formal ultimate entry into the war. and the grand mufti has called for muslims to join a jihad against the own powers. a mosque in istanbul. yeah. it was a call for a holy war to old listenings including arabs who supported the canaan. the germans believed that this cold could undermine their enemies war efforts. there were millions of muslims in the british and french colonies where the germans hoped for mass uprisings. they launched a campaign to influence muslims fighting for the allies. it was led by german lawyer diplomat and ancient historian. of his obviously very dear to

his heart because of his german pictures of and so on. and his interest in the middle east but in a very specific way by eight hundred ninety nine. was it no one had a reputation as an experienced and really very well informed travel are. open heim was an adventurer and archaeologist but was also involved in planning the route of the balland to baghdad railway. the german government wanted to build the line to compete with the british to give them access to oil and bring the region under stronger influence. nothing unusual about the fact that siemens who was then the director of the dogshit bank which was largely in charge of the financing of the car into baghdad railway should contact him about

the extension of the line from a low. to mosul has fought that particular strange and he asked him if he would do some prospecting and advise them on what was the best route and he wrote about all the advantages that the best and most efficient lying to follow for the railroad and all the advantages that would accrue from following this route rather than that route. after troubleshooting for siemens at deutsche bank he made a historic archaeological discovery in northern syria in one thousand nine hundred nine. it was in a certain sense by accident that he made the greatest discovery of his career that she discovered tell her laugh. because really what he was trying to do was do this prospecting on his own. on officially for the village of baghdad really and she

did write he did write a brief to report and devoted many more pages of that they're poor to boot from all it put towards who'll then he did it to that he had discovered it tell how often. open haim returns to excavate laugh in one thousand and seven and discovered a city built in six thousand b.c. . the bell into baghdad will be took thirty seven years to complete by which time europe would be at war again. still to come the devastating impact of the war on greater syria and its people. we think about world war one we think about the british and french and the germans but really the ottoman empire suffered far more than any of the continental powers

a bit of still staring at the phone on al-jazeera. the latest news as it breaks the saudis narrative contradicts the information that turkish officials have been giving for the past two weeks with detailed coverage this whole fluff area of mud was shops and houses and it was completely washed away along with the people who were inside from around the world the government doesn't call this a detention center but it's surrounded by barbed wire fences and it's exits are manned by armed guards. a disease so stigmatized that those suffering are still shunned by society people is drawn from the apparently from the earlier did from their white eaves and then they don't have a place in the war what can be done so that they are no longer outcasts in their own community al-jazeera meets the health workers who are challenging al-qaeda attitudes and working tirelessly to combat leprosy in india lifelines ancient

president has laid things out that he's adamant he wants to see justice he wants to see more pressure exerted on saudi arabia by the united states he said categorically that these tapes which recalled the events that happened on october the second in the saudi consulate the murder of jamal khashoggi these tapes had been listened to by saudi arabia by the united states by germany france and the u.k. said all the major players had been informed of exactly what took place in the building and just as the pressure builds on the u.s. over its links to saudi arabia washington is to end some of its support for the saudi iraqi coalition's war in yemen the u.s. military will halt its involvement in refueling the coalition's fighter jets the us defense secretary james mattis says the decision was made by riyadh after he was consulted and comes before a potentially divisive vote on the issue in the u.s. congress should yield for next week. two big wildfires in the u.s.

state of california have killed at least nine people and left thousands of others homeless five of those who died were found in cars in the northern town of paradise which is being completely destroyed those are your headlines the news continues here on al-jazeera after world war one through arab eyes i'll have the news for you at thirteen g. see you then. the tune is even wider one broadcast is looking at the ottomans role in the first world war. when istanbul entered the war in mid november nine hundred fourteen arab troops were forced to fight on both sides. of the ultimate means and as conscripts for the european allies occupying egypt morocco algeria and gymnasia. hundreds of thousands died.

egypt was still technically part of the ottoman empire but had been under british occupation since one thousand eighty two. when the ultimate to the war britain declared a protective over egypt. the most populous arab country offered britain one million two hundred thousand recruits in different rooms during the war across three continents. five hundred thousand all of them died. ordinary arab people knew this war had little to do with them but were caught up in it. the jordanian capital amman was then

a greater syria. malik went in search of what happened there. or show any of us a bath of a they here and already look at how to move a shot of that in us of that album yet a jew or a the novel from a war well let your land and how to live and the house at the corner where. i'll be there are only if you give me an one hundred dollars or other man here. in the hall at the end how to cut our own could be a dollar. and sherry for saying was proved right the young took government appointed passion as governor of greater syria he acted ruthlessly against anyone suspected of arab nationalist sympathies. his nickname was all. the bloodshed. bad. turkey and of their. general belcher while. what can i feel like they don't feel as

we are a little battery what kind of. a new york hamlet kind of scary at the end really must have been a bit party. in late january one nine hundred fifty. marched alterman troops from greater syria into the sinai peninsula. in february they tried to cross the suez canal east to west but the british troops guarding the canal repelled the attack and the ottomans withdrew but it was another just sort of love mary and you're going to just doesn't appear how it's a player during the war the moment all of. a willingly is rich but often are probably not going to while i'm here you're over there. as jamal pasha and the ultimates face defeated sue is sheriff hussein's revolt was gaining momentum. the british who promised hussein and his family feud to control over the

greater arab state in present day syria lebanon palestine and jordan. and the edge of the city to you by a little bit here but a lot of. us about how do you across the top. would really only a theory about. it don't let the money out of that well. i'd be about a. mile and with a lot of men. one would you be going to. burn with a. morning. wow

i do assure you i have done or did know. during the nine hundred fifty. condemned dozens to death in beirut and damascus he sentenced hundreds to long jail times and sent thousands more into exile. machine it was less will settle magazine it was said stride of it all but as i've done behind come in visit blood yanni. catalog delusions along the way. but the war did not just affect arab nationalists thousands of men were conscripted crops and livestock were requisitioned arabs suffered disastrously in egypt iraq

and bill of the shunned greater syria. you know when we think about world war one we think about the western front in the trenches and the british and french and the germans but really the ottoman empire suffered far more than any of the continental powers about nine percent of the german population died about eleven percent of the french population died but anywhere from between forty percent and twenty five percent of the arctic population guy. then this again meant to them as well didn't get him it will tell. a lot my general yani as well meghann is a doubling of the yolland of the. guardian when i became

a. bad man and. now had a lot of well to be done. he said. no more you need to give me about. the i leave you job you dk me about you willy de ville a lot of. people saw. me and they clearly believe there is there are a hell of a lot. but. it was well i'm not a lot i'm not to. be. an emergency in cuba doing shouldn't. measure. that that there is. yet any. lead. in said to be. there as around all day long

but how to. have. and they also says i would definitely like. that militia or diane more able. to answer that physical algebra yes. my moon under me is lebanese she's over one hundred years old. the war also left its mark on her she still remembers how men used to hide or even dress up as women to avoid conscription. but her most painful memory is of the terrible famine. or.

that you could. do. if you have not yet. but farmer was not the only holder the war inflicted on the arab world. let's start with mesopotamia or iraq with the arrival of six hundred thousand colonial soldiers so these soldiers coming in from for example to other port cities they're all carrying to see uses typhus cholera dysentery something called a wasting fever which was devastating for you to seizures and coma what a lot of people suffered without ever having gone to the front was contagion and casualty rate from epidemic is much higher than the casualty rate for being at the

front of the front page that played a role especially as refugees fled from the front and mesopotamia and the caucasus in particular they brought with. us and the fleas lice of course carry typhus and malaria was also a concern. on the battlefield however i'm to the surprise of the european powers the ultimate has proved a valuable german. they'd attack the british if this is can all. defeated the deliberately in one nine hundred fifty. three force the so. render of the indian expeditionary force in mesopotamia in one thousand nine hundred sixteen. they contain challis fostanes arab revolt along the his as railway line. and they force the british

to fight every step of the way in palestine in one thousand nine hundred eighteen. but ultimate military commanders also committed catastrophic errors. minister for war and government leader and what pasha sent tens of thousands of soldiers to fight the russians at sonic amish in eastern anatolia during the winter of one nine hundred fourteen and early one nine hundred fifty. he wanted to regain territory lost to russia in eight hundred seventy eight. few of his troops had proper weapons or even boots to march him. as many as sixty thousand alterman troops died of whom two thirds are likely to have perished from frostbite and typhus rather than fighting the russians.

the disaster outside accommodation is still marked by local people. prayers as sad every friday for the third autumn an army. some of the older members of the community like this village elders recall a popular poem from the time it accuses anwar pasha of betraying his own men a betrayal they say that bordered on treason. wishing in your salgado i've said all to la la da. yellow gold ladder and shuttle to the. l. up washable a mile up not to be gay subject. unwater pasha blamed the defeat on armenians who he claimed had sided with the russians. in april nineteenth fifteen the government rounded up two hundred and fifty armenian

intellectuals and community leaders in istanbul. armenia men were killed and army conscripts put into labor battalions. women children and the elderly were deported and forced on to law marches into the syrian desert. the facts are still hard to agree on but some historians believe that the young told government the unionists forced up to a million and a half armenians from their homes and that as many as eight hundred thousand dollars. already at the time of the city commission and. we have and that it league and that's it step it's just it's second charge interest the russians are. pushing out all these muslim populations from caucasians towards our minds and

they're causing destruction or it would do you think we should in turn we should be exiled and armenians into russian tended she's less truth in revenge and in not going to cause a similar degree of economic and means of destruction and that's is on let's let's think about this it's in time this germinal it will be converted into a mass of patients towards that at ten years old then it may be in soccer. and armenian soldiers in uniform are separated into forced labor. but the idea has formed it is that the armenians have become totally undeniable hostile population it seems that and that and cuts more that jim. he's an m. . and treacherous nation and let's not wait

for it to happen this time let's act first and then undertake a massive preemptive. hundred years on these events are still a matter of debate. but one of the lasting effects of the armenian exodus to the arabian suff has been the racial diversity it brought to the region. in the twenty first century their descendants are now part of the advance rich social fabric in areas like bush the moon in beirut. the muzzle was a horn can. assist will be what on the high at the moment what was the.

link i had been on or how book but but you know how did with him him. i thought i was a kid i had an idea before so what a whole most of it and some us madison were. really has it all make but i don't kill an economy. bob thought about or says why the certain. ethnic diversity has also characterized this city and the northeast of the ottoman empire and the alley nine hundred s. . thessaloniki salonika in modern greece. after very expulsion along with the muslims from and then you see your southern spain in fourteen ninety two as a father to jews found refuge here in salonika edge. in the center is an ottoman that all of this was mainly the jewish city it was called the jerusalem of the

balkans. salonica was one of the cities that benefited from a series of autumn reforms in the mid nineteenth century these included equality with muslims for both jews and christians. the nationalist leader of modern turkey most of our kemal was born and raised in this house it's now a turkish museum. the story of utter talk as the founder of modern turkey is often told. less well known is salonica spot in the life of another nationalist leader. one who would change the map of the middle east.

polish jewish student there walked along here nineteen eleven he wore affairs like any other ottoman citizen he was here to learn ottoman turkish before going on to study law at the university or istanbul his name david been guardian all would become the first prime minister of israel that it. only. been good ian was a student in salonica and istanbul he actively supported the ottoman army and encouraged around forty jews to join a pro-government militia in jerusalem. he visited america to drum up support for the ottoman empire travelling via egypt and gori and toured thirty five u.s. cities and hope to recruit some ten thousand men in support of the ottoman cause. but he failed and

a major british military advance changed his loyalties. in august one thousand nine hundred sixty the british went on the offensive against the autumn is in suez under general edmond alamy. by early one nine hundred seventeen that removed the autumn and from the sinai peninsula and continued their march towards palestine. in december allonby entered jerusalem on food out of respect for the holy city. as i'm all patia the bloodshed of greater syria was forced out alabang prestone to take the whole of the levant and force a complete ottoman retreat. the signing of the armistice of more drugs took place on the thirtieth of october nine hundred eighty a month later the whole war was over. once jerusalem fell david ben gurion joined the jewish regiment of the british army in london

before returning to palestine to pursue his political career. ben-gurion story typifies how the war presented opportunity it wasn't so much the speed at which he transferred his allegiance it was more that he recognized that a time of radical and far reaching change was dawning in the region. a new world order was about to take shape and he wanted to be one of its architects . the first world war gave birth to three nationalist movements turkish zionist and i. and the relationship between the turks and arabs changed forever as for centuries

of autumn rule or ended by four years of conflict. the awakening of consciousness that grew out of this shift in power was a foretaste of the arab nationalism that was to come. in the next episode. britain's contradictory promises that proved impossible to deliver. the secret agreements between britain and france that carved up the middle east for generations they seem to these people couldn't possibly believe that when the british and the french talked of national freedom that it

actually meant political independence. the hopes of that independence that were ignited by the war. and the crushing disappointment as these hopes were dashed by colonial self interest and lots of fear and it was an issue for in their minds that. in the final episode of world war one through our own. history has called it the great war in the final episode the two sides fight themselves to a standstill while britain and france conspire behind closed doors to produce

a secret agreement that will shape the middle east for the century to come world war one through our bodies on al-jazeera. movie theater should be. there for. the. benefit of the total. in total it's a. great time of the stuff we've given i'm going to talk about all the fun with it

hello welcome i'm peter double you're watching the news our live from our headquarters here in doha coming up in the next sixty minutes stepping up the pressure on saudi arabia the turkish president says he has shared recordings related to the killing of jamal khashoggi. world leaders gather in paris to mark the centenary of the end of world war one. i mean growing differences between the united states and europe plus. if you're full that your house will burn yes. ok. from paradise to hell tens of thousands are left homeless and at least nine people killed as wildfires spread in california. in sport a football game six decades in the making now just hours away for the first time. on the river plate in the final of south america's biggest competition.

ok let's get going beginning this news with a dramatic development in the case of jamal khashoggi just before he left for france to join world leaders to mark one hundred years since the end of the first world war the turkish president has upped the pressure on saudi arabia over the murder of the journalists wretched tayyip erdogan says he's shared ordeal recordings related to the killing with saudi arabia the united states and european countries he's demanding riyad to come clean on what happened to the body of jamal khashoggi riis. we have shared the recordings with saudi arabia the americans the british the germans with everyone they've listened to the conversations on those recordings they know what's been said there's no point in

distorting this fact among the fifteen suspects they know who the murderer is all murderers are and saudi arabia can bring all this to light by making those fifteen suspects speak well certainly arabia's former spy chief says the kingdom will never allow an international investigation into the murder friends feisal says he expects riyadh will fully investigate the death and insists there was no cover up meanwhile turkish police have officially ended the search for the body of jamal khashoggi but they are vowing to continue the criminal investigation into his murder we have three correspondents covering the story from all angles gave elizondo is in washington is in paris where mr erdogan is heading as we speak but first let's get the latest from my colleague who's in bull for us jamal so clearly the timing of this not lost on anyone but what do we think is contained within this audio or deal recordings. well it's extremely interesting because this is the first time

that's the one who's directly spoken about those old your recordings and the fact that he sees that he shared those recordings with the americans the saudis themselves and others would maybe cause that little bit of doubt possibly on the fact that these were recordings that maybe were again through some sort of clandestine tapping by the turkish authorities maybe they were actually legitimately received because it's difficult maybe to see how the turks would openly share recordings of them actually tapping the wiretapping or spying on foreign consulates. willingly offering those in the way in which small but that's maybe a side plane what is more significant here is that right ahead as you mention it is the timing that is very significant as he's getting on the plane to go to paris to meet with president rouhani is making it very clear to the world he's telling them everybody knows what's happened everyone has the evidence or everybody who has

significant player in the region has the evidence or has seen the evidence the saudis have the culprits they have amongst those eighteen people those who witnessed and participated in this crime and therefore they have to come out if they want this case to be and they have to make those people speak but there are still some questions we've been talking about raising questions with regards to the consul general the person who witnessed this as well and obviously whose home was found some of the evidence there is questions whether these people will be extradited or not obviously you quoted their face on the former intelligence chief saying that they would never be an independent international investigation into this what significant peter here is took her face off with somebody who she worked very closely for for several years he was a close confidant of his so for him to come out and say this also is extremely significant but above all of this what we're looking at right now is maybe.

approaching some sort of let's see here crescendo of some sorts but at least some sort of breaking point where we will see a shift in the dynamics of this case with the president of turkey clearly making get obvious that this information now is with everybody and he expects some sort of productive result from his meeting with the u.s. presidents in paris jamelle thank you joins you know on the new paris fashion miss you may call has met with donald trump do you know what they were discussing. peter the murder was a model hussars you were one of the main issues topping the agenda where both leaders agreed that this are these should come out with more details about the circumstances surrounding the murder of. oxy and they're also asking for further investigation but they were also saying basically they were concerned about any further destabilize the murder of. could pose to the region of the

basically saying that they are concerned about the future of saudi arabia if the international pressure continues to mount and they're also saying this would this is quite interesting that the murder of the battle house of g.'s becoming an international story that could redefine some of the traditional relationships in the region when it comes to dealing with saudi arabia trump and president eman well mark crossing there the hope that the fallout from the murder could pave the way to a swift and to the war in yemen and we in fact we know that the u.n. has asked sweden to be the venue for the next political talks between the different factions in yemen and see how they can possibly and the war and clearly mr erdogan will be expecting some sort of face to face conversation with donald trump to do with these audio recordings that he's now turning us he's released to everyone who is you know involved in the murder the allegations and the story

as it's evolved over the past five weeks. and this explains peter why he made that announcement that before taking off to paris he is hoping to keep up the international pressure against saudi arabia saying that. every single crucial element of the investigation with the key allies particularly of france britain germany and the united states of america and this stearns turkey is now hoping after a lost hope that it will be able to fight to get hold of the remains of. the next step would be to convince crucial our allies particularly the united states of america that is about time to put more pressure but we're talking about two countries beset by. turkey and u.s. beset by many differences over key regional players and it remains to be seen as

we're going to see in this report whether or not trump would be able to set aside their differences. it's been more than a month since he was killed but the. case has turned into a political crisis threatening to further strain relations between saudi arabia and turkey. which is keeping up the pressure on the saudis to prosecute those who carried out the murder and find out who ordered it shared crucial evidence with the united states in an attempt to rally international support. turkey hopes a meeting between president donald trump and russia. will pave the way for more cooperation mr trump's house on this case is still cloudy you know he is seems not to be able to you know choose his side despite all these followed evidences i think will be their first challenge to mr rodman is going to attempt to

persuade him personally to take can't just to take a stance with also for those who create and you know very near to the point where you are off justice but winning trumps trust won't be easy the u.s. and turkey are divided over many issues america has stepped up its military support for the kurdish y p g a group it considers an ally in the fight against isis in syria but turkey sees the y p g as an extension of the outlawed kurdistan workers' party the p.k. k. . the u.s. state department has offered rewards for information about the location of three senior members of the party in a move aimed at easing tensions. but he says the

u.s. has to sever all ties with the wire p.g. and this warning of a major offensive against kurdish militias in northeastern syria would be to stick around countries that support their y.p. gene to question their fight against terrorism because any support of the white b.g. directly or indirectly is given to their terrorist organization trump. said recently they were hoping to set aside their differences and start a new chapter in relations between the two countries but they have a number of issues to resolve including the war in syria sanctions on iran the gulf cooperation council crisis and the hot shots the killing the murder of jamal khashoggi could undermine chances to improve turkish american relations the government here is concerned president trump might ultimately use his leverage to shield the saudi crown prince from further scrutiny and international pressure

despite turkey's insistence the case won't end until the saudis say who gave the order to kill the journalist. to washington our correspondent gabriel elizondo there monitoring u.s. reaction has there been any reaction there yet gaev. not officially either from the white house or the state department no reaction yet on this saturday morning here in washington but i can tell you that there certainly is going to be a lot of lawmakers here and powerful people in this city that are looking at this very very closely because make no doubt about it now that we know that the u.s. government has been given these tapes that is going to dramatically ramp up the pressure here on lawmakers and primarily on the white house to reveal what was on those tapes and how high that goes up.
