time's loser jeff a leader there would die of cold water because of the storm risking it all mongolia on al-jazeera. poor. old. donald trump threatened sanctions against iraq if it expelled foreign troops over the assassination of the iranian general qassam cinemark. it comes as a round abandons all limits on uranium enrichment effect to be ending its commitments under the 2015 nuclear. went down to the south as iraq live from doha also coming up 3 americans are killed during an attack in kenya presenting another crisis for the u.s. as it grapples with a standoff with iran. as well as opposition denounces what

it's calling a parliamentary cuando opposition leader one who was physically blocked from entering. the us president donald trump has warned iraq can impose heavy sanctions if it follows through with moves to expel american troops iraq's parliament voted in favor of removing foreign forces in retaliation for a u.s. strike that killed the iranian general salim ahmed well fallout from the assassination is rippling right across the middle east iran's vying to hit back and has also announced it will no longer abide by any of the a commitments it made under the 2015 nuclear deal meanwhile in lebanon hezbollah leader hassan nasrallah says all u.s. bases warships and soldiers are now fair targets and calls for revenge are growing louder especially among the hundreds of thousands of people mourning customs and

a mani during his funeral in iran well we begin with al jazeera as a sort of binge of aid in baghdad. and to us in pro iran chance in the iraqi parliament elected representatives came together for an extraordinary session the iraqi pm laid out his preferred option after the assassination of buttons in the money by american missiles well paid in heart the larger the whole world at 1st ending the presence of foreign forces as an emergency measure and making arrangements for that secondly to go back to the draft decision that was put forward to the parliament before the current government took office. but all kurdish representatives boycotted the session and most of the sunni m.p.'s were in there the emergency session of parliament is a reminder of the deep ethnic and sectarian divisions in iraq between so nice shias and kurds at least one commander of the. group has said that if the parliament

fails to pass a decisive resolution against the u.s. presence in iraq on sunday all future sessions will be worthless. a powerful cleric who heads one of the leading blocs in parliament criticized the decision as a weak one so they're called for the shutting down of the us embassy on so-called resistance groups inside and outside iraq to form urgency the tally and similar sentiments were echoed by other shia majority political blocs. this is a real test for loyalty and patriotism we don't want to disappoint iraqis as their elected representatives if this council cannot protect sovereignty it's useless. not everyone agrees with a quick pullout of correlation troops and these protesters carried out an end to the clash with pro iran supporters a similar sentiment runs through anti corruption protesters who forced out. as the prime minister the iraqi pm says legal procedures will begin to fulfill the parliament's non-binding resolution but he leads an interim government with limited

powers who. it's a resolution not a law if it's really binding iraq will be exposed in front of vice all americans helped iraq there are a lot of problems for the economy as well. even if lawmakers could all come together and vote to end the u.s. presence in iraq immediately that process would take more than a few months to implement on the ground time which groups out for revenge do not want to give u.s. forces on the job a down to the era back that. joins us live now from washington d.c. gabe so we understand that house speaker nancy pelosi has now written a letter to house democrats about the issue of congressional oversight for military operations what does it say. yeah and nancy pelosi was furious quite frankly that trump launched this air strikes that killed so low money without informing congress in advance on late sunday evening she did send

a letter is about a page and a half long to house democrats and it was as she announced in the letter that the house will vote next week on a war powers resolution that could limit trumps ability to pursue any military action against iran in this letter she said that the strike that killed so the money was provocative and disproportionate military airstrike she said that it endangers our service members diplomats and others and risking serious escalation in tensions with iran in the letter she said as members of congress our 1st responsibility is to keep the american people safe for this reason we are concerned that the administration took this action without the consultation of congress and without the respect for congress's war powers granted to it in the constitution so you can expect some action on capitol hill and the house of representatives this week as the democrats in the powerful speaker of the house try to hold trump to

account for his actions there the democrats in the house are also wanting to get more information on the justification that the administration says that they have the intelligence that the administration says that they have on why they thought that this strike killing so the money was so necessary and the so-called imminent threat that soleimani posed so expect to see some political wrangling on capitol hill this week here in washington yeah meanwhile president trump has been threatening to sanction iraq and also insists he may hit iran's cultural sites what was he been saying. yet trump did not speak to reporters on camera when he left was mar-a lago resort in florida coming back to washington but he did speak to reporters off camera on air force one and he said that the u.s. has spent trillions of dollars building bases in iraq and that if iraq kicked the u.s. out of that country that he would want expect that iraq would repay the united

states and he said if they didn't the u.s. would level sanctions against iraq that he said would pale in comparison to the current sanctions against iran so he's not only ramping up the rhetoric and escalating the situation with iran but now also with iraq as well also on the. cultural sites the president told reporters that he would consider striking iranian cultural sites this is a little bit of what the president is quoted as saying he said they're allowed to kill our people they're allowed to torture and maim our people they're allowed to use roadside bombs and blow up our people and we're not allowed to touch their cultural site it doesn't work that way those are the words from president trump raising really the eyebrows of a lot of people because striking a cultural site is

a war crime according to the 1954 hague convention that the u.s. signed on to should be noted that the u.n. has identified 24 locations in iran that are unesco world heritage sites so trump really threatening not only iraq with these sanctions but also threatening iran as well on multiple levels should iran decide to retaliate against the united states. in washington these thank you. tens of thousands of mourners are out in iran's capital right now for the latest stage of qassam somali's funeral procession well these are live pictures now coming from the iranian capital tehran sort of mani's remains will be taken to his hometown on tuesday to live pictures there coming into us here today reports. a sea of mourners millions across the country came out onto the streets nothing

like this has been witness in iran since the funeral of the founder of the islamic republic at a loss how many 30 years ago the assassination of qassam so the money has united a country and its different political factions donald trump street threatening to targeted rein in cultural sites has encouraged even more defiance but it's a sacrifice on life for him if we sacrifice our blood for him he still not enough. to kill. them or their parents or it. gets ready to love. the women they get ready for a big brother when khaleel. fuel on the streets of iran the event has reshaped the political dynamic. in november there were anti-government protests across the country but now the government and

political establishment here have unprecedented support images of general for the money put up across the country and port named after him even streets named in his honor everyone is being reminded of his contribution to iran and what's seen as his ultimate sacrifice. so the money's daughter has asked to bring him president has done rouhani and the need to of lebanon's hezbollah hassan nasrallah to avenge her father's death the sustentation has now resulted in iran announcing it has no limits to its nuclear activities including uranium enrichment its stockpiles and research and development the deal is now old but that iran says no one can dictate what kind of response it will give to america no need in marjah don't do we not know that this adventure has painful repercussions for you mr trump don't fret india iranian nation with your ignorance you put the lives of americans in this boss region a risk you'd better pack up and escape from the region. regional countries and the rest of the world wait nervously as the fear of

a new conflict grows the killing of one man that is now threatening to reshape the face of the middle east as i bake al-jazeera the. so a lot of reaction in the middle east but tsunamis assassination has also triggered conversations around the world especially on social media the jura gate and has been looking at what people are saying just days ago internet users across the world were briefly united sharing messages welcoming in the new year but then is news of kassam cinema killing by u.s. forces break throughout the middle east the reaction started on twitter before the attacks and money was relatively unknown outside the region but google trends show his name reached peak interest within a few hours then as the rest of the world work up the hash to have world war 3 began to trend globally the story quickly dominated usa szell media with people discussing the possible deployment of more u.s. troops and the fear of being drafted into a war with a ran american troops stationed in the middle east try to break the tension by

sharing means on that basis facebook groups in israel ceremonies death was widely celebrated online that pictures of the defaced president from mural on the separation wall began to circulate instagram then started hiding posts under the hashtags on the money because it said much of the content did not meet its community guidelines but that hasn't stopped the reigning critics of cilla money from posting their own to work on the platform or his supporters from posting images praising his accomplishments. our thoughts a short break here on al-jazeera when we come back funerals in tripoli after an airstrike killed at least 30 people. units on the way to support libya's u.n. residents come. to know whether i'm some rain on a recent spike from bush far as my strength but nowhere near enough to end the unprecedented disaster for another state.

back a quick reminder at the top stories here on al-jazeera the u.s. president is threatening sanctions against iraq if it goes ahead with moves to expel foreign troops donald trump says american forces will not leave unless iraq pains for the u.s. base this their. iraqi politicians are voted to remove all foreign forces in response to the assassination of the iranian come on the customs of the money the bill is gone binding and still needs government approval. under rons announced it will no longer abide by its commitments on the 25th the nuclear deal saying they'll be no limits on its capacity soon and rich. and these are live pictures hundreds of

thousands of people are mourning customs and amani during his ongoing funeral procession and tear up well as the situation with iran escalates the u.s. is facing another crisis this time in kenya al shabaab fighters of killed 3 americans including a soldier one attacking a military compound on the coast near the border with somalia. with forbes. pictures released by al shabaab meant for propaganda but also a warning that a heavily secured military site used by american forces is fair game for its fighters the prieto an assault by the al qaeda linked somali armed group was its 1st against u.s. forces in kenya governments have been saying that's about being weak and al shabaab . longer strong they are not capable to carry out attacks or wherever such a statement released usually back and say we are here we are still

a strong american drones hitting somalia on regular basis so i think this was to send a message to the somali people to say we are not targeting civilians we are targeting foreign militaries and we are fighting on your behalf attackers went on a rampage at the airfield close to the somali border for 4 hours destroying u.s. and kenyan aircraft along with military vehicles in the end 5 attackers were killed and the commander of u.s. africa command issued this warning of quote pursuing those responsible for this attack and who seeks to harm americans and u.s. interests but questions are being raised about how a heavily fortified military base could be so vulnerable. putting together an attack of this nature of this audacity take a lot of planning a lot of time and it comes at a moment when he has been especially active along the kenyan border making forays

into kenya this appears to be principally an information operation or psychological warfare operation where chabad has sent a small number of fighters to a major military base the latest incident comes just over a week off to al shabaab killed 80 people mostly students in the somali capital mogadishu that truck bomb attack prompted u.s. airstrikes for over a decade the armed group has been fighting to overthrow the somali government and impose islamic law sunday's attack suggests that fight is far from over. though al-jazeera. russia type has announced that turkish soldiers are being deployed to libya to help in the fight against warlord and for half top it comes as libya's u.n. backed government declares 3 days of mourning for the victims of saturday's air strike on a military academy in tripoli at least 30 students were killed but what of the wide reports. funerals for the younger military as to dence killed in an air strike in

tripoli. and libya as you enter recognized a government in no doubt ho to blame for the attack one of the country's backing warlords honey for have to wonder are. we pledged to take revenge on the united arab emirates that states have been conspiring against us since the beginning of the 17th of february pollution in 2011 a spokesman for have told denied his forces were responsible saying the incident a would be investigated the investigation is also required now from the u.n. mission to send fact finding committees to the location of the bombing i general come on denies that any of the units talk to the site using attorney fire or air force and this isn't part of our morals or customs and it doesn't reflect our military ethics medical workers who are unable to identify some of the students there but is so badly burned or in pieces 18 year old
