out a form and we did that but haven't heard anything yet we did that on the twenty first and don't yet know where he is we don't know how he's doing if he has access to food or water or place to sleep thanks six weeks of antigovernment protests started on the nineteenth of december over rising food costs the cries were changed to calls for president bush here to end his thirty year rule. refusing to hand over power security forces have been criticized for firing bullets and tear gas to disperse protesters. the government says twenty nine have been killed since protests began rights groups say at least fifty have died widespread arrests have also been reported with activists and opposition figures targeted sometimes in their homes. there's growing concerns for their safety the government's long been criticized for torturing dissidents and activists sometimes resulting in death. the

number of activists who have been arrested since anti-government protests began in december is not known many remain in detention with no access to their families or their lawyers with reports of torture from those who have been released many families say they're concerned about the safety and health of their relatives and that they want to know who is holding them and where political parties including members of the ruling coalition such as the popular congress party are adding to calls by rights groups for the release of protesters imprisoned. peaceful protesting is one of the rights provided in the constitution and is an international right people should be able to express themselves the killing of protesters is something we don't support and neither do we support the arrests of the ruling national congress party admits the arrests of activists but accuses them of inciting violence and says they will be charged and tried in court if. the security forces are arresting people for doing their jobs as per the country's laws and constitution but the families of those arrested have the right to know the

weapons of war the same young men playing war games now may someday be fighting on front lines far from home and experts worry israel might be hostility between the two countries is no secret since the early days of the syrian war eight years ago israeli forces have targeted iranian allies of the government to mask. but continuing israeli strikes on iranian targets in syria means what started out as a sidebar to the war runs the risk of becoming a parallel conflict. we have been fighting israel in different ways to forty years now there is a direct contact because our bases are close to their borders we are monitoring their activities and we are capable of retaliation so far we have not decided to enter a direct war with israel because we believe the syrian government should make this decision why they haven't yet but it may happen and if it does we should expect a direct and very wide war on the ground. with no immediate borders between them

open conflict with israel would probably look like proxy battles of the past likely playing out on lebanese and syrian soil experts say strikes on each other cities is also a possibility but the most dangerous escalation would come from the involvement of israel's staunchest ally and iran staunchest enemy the united states if that were to happen many. experts warn the conflict could become global there is perhaps no clearer sign of the distrust between iran and israel than this monument to their mutual animosity in a speech a few years ago iran's supreme leader. predicted the end of israel giving the country twenty five years until it destroyed itself. his supporters did the math and put a clock in palestine square in downtown tehran for those who take the word of the supreme leader as literal and divine this countdown clock is more than just a publicity stunt for many iranians it is a real time countdown to the end of israel as we know it. but iranians still bear the scars of the eight year war with neighboring iraq in the one nine hundred
