across the globe funny to see. how low on maryam namazie london quick look at headlines iraq's president has a point in hama to allow we as a country's new prime minister it's always a former communications minister and if his appointment is approved by the parliament will govern until the elections are held its 1st task will be forming a new cabinet iraq has faced months of protests over corruption unemployment and a lack of basic services he has vowed to punish those who killed protesters the message posted to twitter allow he also promised change and said that he stood with the protesters in solidarity the. continued demonstrating and protesting and shouting your slogans this is your country and these are your rights our job is to meet your demands and we have to protect you and not oppress you the country's weapons should be directed towards those who carry weapons and

who should stay in the streets so we manage to hold the killers accountable to compensate families of the martyrs who treat all the wounded to set time for elections restoring the pride and prestige of the security forces to reform the economy to fight the corruption and to form my government if the political powers try to impose certain names on me i will tell you directly and i will leave the same way you left your colleagues for the sake of your country and i will join the masses finally i want to tell you that you went out to the streets to get back your nation and if i don't meet your demand i don't deserve to be a prime minister al jazeera is in iran khan is in the capital baghdad and says allow his 1st challenge is getting approval from parliament. before the protestors are satisfied before they even have a chance to say what they think there is still another tough fight on muhammad a lawyer's hands not what he's got to do he's got to form a cabinet and then that cabinet has to be approved by parliament now they.

look he's put his support behind that but the largest bloc in parliament may still be a sticking block for him and that is the only blog so there are still sticking points when it comes to palm and but he's already set out his stall he's thrown his support behind the protesters but that might not be enough already we've seen in syria in the south and here in central baghdad in tact risk where people are rejecting him because he's part of the old school this is a man who was the communications minister in the nuri al maliki government so he's already been seen by the protests as being somebody who's part of the old school of protests has been very clear on their dogs have said they want a completely new suite now whether they can actually get that or not remains to be seen but there is a real concern from a lot of people within the protest movement that his name might divide them for example you've got people in the protest movement who say well look he's come out and supported the protest movement therefore we should support him others say actually no he's one of the old school and we don't need that card of person in our

corner or even backing us we are an independent movement so it really remains to be seen what he will do and are in the headlines the arab league has rejected u.s. president donald trump's plan for the middle east at an emergency meeting in cairo to discuss the proposal palestinian president mahmoud abbas attacked the plan and said his people would never accept it was negotiated with israel without input from the palestinians. german air force plane is arrived in frankfurt from the hun is governments continue to repatriate their citizens from china in response to the coronavirus 312 bangladeshis have also been taken home while russia prepares to pull out its citizens on monday and tuesday strong gusts of wind and soaring temperatures feel bushfires in australia's capital firefighters have been able to hold blazes back from reaching the outskirts of camera but uncontrolled fires in the territory of reached at least 350 square kilometers in size. age there's no

. read with respect to the stirring t.v. address from the 1970 s. the audience is the people of yemen and the speaker is the president of the yemen i remember republican we met but i thought. that. this message is one of unity that showed how a country divided can heal its differences and move forward. with. radical remember i did. not invent anything. i

fancy that you have a bad credit here and. i want to play robbie i said the president's ambition would be fulfilled within a few years however brutal events at a banquet would end up really shaping the course of yemen's history. well. at home but. this is the story of a murder an assassination that took place over 40 years ago the killing occurred in

the yemeni city of sanaa and the victim was none other than the country's president . it's a murder that still resonates today in a nation that is still deeply divided added odds with its neighbors. in this film. from al jazeera arabic will reveal a chain of events that is in every sense stranger than fiction a timeline to the political assassination of president funding a killing that took place on an october day in 1977. even though while hamdi was assassinated over 4 decades ago all recent protests have evoked the memory of the dead leader here in 2011 protestors against yemeni president ali abdullah saleh hark back to times past. how at the end of the saleh

leave. there eman matic e.c.s. subsets the man and. mouat. a man of the canal and the end of the how well and he was so scary and to them what have we. who are not yet have a lot at them sort of we'll be telling him oh it might have been what i said at the end of our look at the style of a vicar on the order of ahmed and. hyundai defined what it meant to be a yemeni because there's an entire generation of yemenis. who's looking for their humvee their humvee who defined what it meant to be a yemeni who defined with the yemeni state and everyone is looking for that today and we ask where is our humvee what set all family apart from leaders before and after him was that he bore the personal charisma of a reformer and

a modern just his country north yemen was divided from its neighbor in the son's authority lay not in the hands of central government but with a number of powerful tribes. saw himself as a force that could unite a divided country. and none of the even now we. will have had as always al no one challenged me out of a gravity well of the way that i have managed to lash out and have a low number. as have a canner. well what happened well back i have i'm well. really help i like the british a theatre they get through that if you look at the real me a man nothe. cream he. you've got

a little more business trying to live you know. i'm going to home. well yemen has never been as prosperous as its gulf neighbors it does occupy an important strategic position at the mouth of the red sea. historically yemen had been ruled by and divided between the ottoman and british empires the north declared independence in 1962 and the south in 19673 years later south yemen would become the only marxist country in the region allying itself with the soviet union. meanwhile ibrahim a humvee was becoming a rising star of yemeni politics in 1972 he was transferred from a mid ranking military role to become deputy prime minister and later that same year deputy commander in chief of the armed forces 2 years later our humvee emerged

as the figurehead of the self-proclaimed corrective movement a manifesto for an imminent crude atar. andy hiller. canard that is a little is that colored letters they'll go out that they're going to be allowed to study at will that's had. so over the year. the yellow handy fee of what i was allowed back at the umbrella handy good but they're over the. latitude to say. on the 13th of june 19 17400 made his move this british embassy cable from the north yemen capital sanaa reported the resignation of the event president. there were other high profile resignations on that day clearing the decks for the arrival of a new president the transition was bloodless and for the 1st time

a modernizer was at the helm of the yemen arab republic. cover gets the colorful where drama really let them have a shade of it but i haven't had what i get is like a hell yeah and it was honorable of the last 11 from the assumed we dearly helena to cut the bit damp damaged our medical school limb to cut the amount of the living hell of a lot whenever you take women actors quo that really meant no coffee visit our work at the level we're going to have him the most of the lebanese that are in the. the love a simple dollar. it was $974.00 and president al hunt is victory celebrations were short lived his 1st priority was to build confidence with neighboring saudi arabia a country that was bigger more powerful and far wealthier than impoverished north

yemen humvees 1st official visit was to the saudi capital riyadh aiming to maintain good relations yet reduce dependence on saudi arabia who wield it considerable influence over yemen's powerful times. as the incoming president our humvee was walking a tightrope his instinct as a modernizer was to bring the reins of power into the capital but that meant wrestling control from the tribes who had traditionally run yemen. one of. those to create modern armed force that would not be organized tribally would be composed of units that were mixed personnel that would therefore be loyal to the chain of command rather than the particular chefs to hear. about you know build up a. very accurate account. will be and i'll get

a lot out. of the a lot of it but i had. that. on the 27th of april 975 president all handy issued a decree which effectively centralized control of the army. no longer tribes wield great influence over the military the new power brokers would be our humvee and army officers loyal to the new president. and then the furthest south korea listen to the top of the most unique. possible human problems in the photo were looking i miss not going in there not to know how to put into the hands that. would you would. manage this block how did you let them sell that's absolute death and let them sell have.

that effort to get out it's about. how he how he was himself i didn't want to add that the and just let them sell how lovely the family get the black that shetland was. yemen in the 1970 s. was desperately poor and kept afloat by foreign aid. he believed that this dependence on aid fundamentally weakened both parts of yemen he formulated a 5 year development plan harnessing local co-operatives their goal to economically place yemen on its own 2 feet. when every mile hamdi came to power in $974.00 as a charismatic figure a populous with a clear political plan and he knew that in order to bring about the kind of changes

that he wanted to see in the country that it was necessary to strengthen government institutions and i think his vision was to build upon the success of these local cooperative associations he was certainly the 1st one direct for us a vision of using the cooperatives as a national organization and a way build up a national political base. from the cooperative. i read of that. remember. i said i'm learning. how to tie when i live in a problem with. that america in an ad that interactive that's in alaska where that is the route a little high at a paragraph. in raw help. well up to michelle and i were bad but i had to shabby a benefit imagine that with a president in my ear during

a tough nigam ben-ari if you will medina. left. me i should have had a. really. good. idea . beyond the borders of north yemen how handy continue to develop international relations including with the soviet union who had close ties with neighboring south yemen in march $177.00 regional security top the agenda at a red sea summit meeting in the yemeni city of time it's being claimed that at the time summit there were rumblings of an assassination plot against hamdi.

who here. half of the whole summer is a. couple of tournaments. another time i had that and it's but i'm not buying it but i'm not a. man and i'm only a hint of it but i generally i do want to look a lot of. why i don't want to gabby. and your children authority i don't feel more sorry i don't have it and i would do that in kenya animal to go and that i would climb and i could then have

a lot of sodium in. the house but that doesn't help that the suit would be a sort of you know and have the who do a little your from a number. of them and if they have a severe you can undo a fill. the clean well it's something for other people. around the same time a humvee met his southern counterpart president salamat r.b.i. ali in a town straddling the north-south border they committed to improving relations and to begin steps to unify yemen into a single country both leaders agreed to sit down again 9 months later in the southern city of aden the stage was set for the 1st visit by a north yemeni leader to the marxist regime in the south humvee however would not live to keep this appointment. sadie mean with all sort of how do you

know. it different. than what what what. i think yeah i thought you had a fit and then. and i think that with some of that i thought that i had to work. if you could get in and out but he got a lot of that needs to be done in the. car what it must be better. than if you tell. me that. how he'd look it up and imagine if he'd had you had yemeni capital islamabad. you know i wish that i'd got one up each other and you know be not what we're going to shoplift humanity. and what they are committed to each their people and how and yemen and had a gun who not. here.

for the 2nd. and if you. look they're going to. i'm going to. get it i don't. i don't i'm. going to convene up. here that i love and you know coon i'll american you where we make i think. i have it then it will come up in the law they might have it up and took will also my son are. under the stewardship of a humvee yemen appear to be on a fast track to unification supporters welcomed the idea some domestic opponents of the more powerful neighborhood viewed the prospect with less enthusiasm the saudi

role. yemen has always been complex has always been complicated the saudi is did not like. in the end toward the end they saw him as independent of them of course they saw him as perhaps threatening. because the able to consolidate the country behind him a very difficult thing to do in yemen and he also had particular international efforts to try and run the relationship with the south yemen and now the saudis would be very. anxious if there were any moves to unify the country or did i meet and the hope could leave that about me much for a dollar a lot of money and any of that when i'm not sure at which death and yemenia crema

was good enough so he had died out of jodi. and yet that minister. he gave and she'd. had. and machine mini me he could have been at the party and. not wanting to risk alienating the country's neighbor president al hamdi flew to saudi arabia his aim to reassure the saudis that his desire was to forge a new relationship one that looked toward shared and prosperous future according to president al homsi spokesman to accompany the leader the visit ended prematurely. only the member has unveiled at the military were denied agel who should. have. seen this through. the.

congress they were. around with back then knew were an issue for no cyrano i had. no doubt would have had another. euro or. help and. can raise. money to a person who would refer to her now and the most of the. brain or a shade but he would. look out of yesterday. sadly not be tacky. a month. yemeni just kind of the to have come because many of them was at a certain dia the better. the topic at hand. the.

number. he said don't haina be not all that to me but he said was that i what i need what he did a living yet he did that will be the ability meanwhile back in north him and loyal associates warned comedy that he was over reliant on untrustworthy military leaders notably his army commander and me. with get up and i mean and i mean him do anything be here over there the head of them 2nd and then oh no not going to have. you know how to. work on your lawn. they said. we're not 100. where i want to build a lot of. how they're going to have a lot of can my habits out the other living a 3rd of them of that i took a 4 by 4 room with

a 5th of that there and opened the way the saudis that resorted to their most favorite and most. tried and true i hate to say true it wasn't but which is to pay off give money to those tribes that they thought would support them and what it meant was create problems for this interim government in this case humpty to try to keep him from becoming too strong and i think in the end they just decided he was a threat and decided to remove it. says he was in the latter literally if he's got a cellar certainly can endure and has said it's only. the latin america the levy to. blame and if it's an out of the national. i would like to sort out while i will not i will. let another lemon governor. kelly egypt

and if i listen to rush me or not know why i did it in early gatlin little english me big whether it be yellow with the will get at him an ear. just read randomly or can with damage not international who cannot govern as i lead the last battle actually collected was subtle and i got a lemon a vase a shade of brown and the ethno saloon again a musher. president on hamdi however dismissed suggestions that the army commander of hashmi was plotting against him he argued quite the opposite that all hashmi had been consistently loyal to him throughout his presidency. can you be a priority raymond how do you know when or where you work and then i would go out there and know not how i know that the beat with no question was lacking

he would have even happened near for the. crimean quickly made their moment get i think we had to learn how do you happen to have it this way . in their local medical and. of course at about 7 eleventh's hour the stuff that i was a lot i had either for 11 that are all mad a cafe i have to any. one number that i should question me supper. for but i will and the what i can and that with me who are ladies eg if they were at the lead. in part 2 humvees friends is deadly rivals and the enemies who posed as friends. an award winning investigation i mean

a story with different endings depending on the story teller the guests were expecting to bait al hunt a farewell given that the president was due to fly to aden for all important talks with his southern counterpart the next day as minutes turn to hours hyundai's bodyguards became increasingly concerned and yet i hope i don't buy that they'd met you at any babel house hot up the law let majo the height of fogel cover had over i. almost yellow would owe her a home at east. well i hope that i don't read that. genevieve had thought my live a good salary. less as a. lot of i got than i have. come to my life. so that is that there was a. lie about that. but that. negative

. notes had that i live in a yeah well. i'm glad i got you know who can drive a muscle and i know gad cheval are going to have a laugh at. the president's bodyguards were left wondering how all hamdi could have been assassinated while in the company of his most trusted political allies what should have been a lunch celebration had become a crime scene so what happened that afternoon and who may have been responsible most of those present on that day have since died indeed a number would themselves be murdered later there are clues however to be found in the archives of western embassies who closely followed events in yemen in $197071.00 american account attributed to all crush me who would be for the day's end assume the presidency claimed that unidentified gunman had shot al homsi while

in his car. another more euro decant said that al hamdi and his brother had rented a small house hideaway that they had picked up 2 french girls and that somehow both brothers had been murdered not only had the president been killed but it appeared that his character was also under assassination. we had for decades only can feel know that what happened in india can wear away in . a wagon with a laugh or the main american day. and one of the french connection the 2 women who was said to have been with the brothers not only did the exist but they were indeed murdered in yemen around the same time as president are harmed their names were verily twat and françoise screen

. verily twa had a glamorous lifestyle enjoying the company of film directors in france as glitzy riviera to some she was a high class call go to others she was a spy. to live it in mind of i don't get. don't count on if she can't or put it i mean. could you if you don't get past it probably paled of only quote actually most of our poll question if you're mocked him as you put it back if you're. if you're only caught in the trenches car if you're past your you man. a few need to look at is not a locker never you know it was an aquarium and. one of my very good yemeni friends mohammed shami was a diplomat. and he was. a friend of

his in the embassy in paris her fanny was the person who recruited. these 2 prostitutes and had them then and sent them to yemen and i remember her as sami he also cried when he told me that story he was a true believer in the end the role that al handy. was going to hopefully play in the development of yemen so 100 shani just thought terrible that he had been the person who had recruited these 2 prostitutes prostitutes who were then killed and thrown into a room with the brothers in order to bring shame in. this respect the respect upon the 100 brothers their family.

is the most sort of not put. this into fam. question kitty but you are more. wrong the this affair you may need tell a book. you don't really know them or at their own miss you are the last measure get their ms affair contrail a key review on the. law although i was told this a don't don't isn't the icky marco patience the more calm or fair to. say the farmer. or i lay open or. because it doesn't give it the shots they decide to miss you are more easily to patsy off that you ever did to plan their alliance kelly. on this

carriage is now sweet. is it possible to ever find a twat happen. i was a humvee murder and who benefited from his assassination there are several firies the hard facts are in short supply. where the less. valuable us or less a lover co will that feeling for a lot of the law so that the lab will do it that is. a good little theory. it will be a no actually i mean read the choice by should i doubt that assad had a woman that had a belly and got let me. back and i got to know how to get away from the question. also on the list of suspects for tribal enemies opposed to our humvees a rose in their power others suspected the hand of saudi arabia so i have never

asked any in the house and i've got it so who are they and then thought i put them through them took them who had no and i have asked that it come of a flower she did know so well i wasn't i thought i was lucky that's all the best i like best yet i sat and i ask that he get me that a lot of you are thinking of a mile and well i think that the saudis decided to get rid of the simply because they saw him as getting too strong and. undercutting their influence in yemen. able to counter their traditional way of dealing with tribes. 2 weeks after the murder saudi arabia issued an official statement categorically denying any involvement in the hundreds assassination. the denial came after claims within yemen including by a number of foreign diplomats that individual saudis may have been involved in the

assassination albeit in directly. their suspicion was that those who benefited most from the crime had links to saudi arabia. the widespread view but i heard from yemeni contacts friends in private of course was that these assassinate this hassidim hamdi was. it was a saudi run operation using yemenis who were in there pay more. people the dog would do their beckoning among those was crushed me and certainly only dull sala of the summer as the current title is. no one was ever charged with the murder neither al-hashmi nor sana ever had met at any point in the death of all

found. me died just a few months off towards us for ali abdullah saleh he became president in 1978 and would later point the finger of blame at saudi arabia. which it will not own and eat and i will not out of that unless you. damage i have. myself i like. and want to laugh at it. so that you know you can be a bit of heidi and you only at the at least don't let me do my talk on the deck and yet have it if he had the deck and he asked me why you have to listen to. the al jazeera arabic examination of the death of a bit of a mile from d.c. has uncovered numerous documents and heard testimony from many who were in yemen in the 1970 s. these include the deputy ambassador at the u.s.

mission in yemen who arrived in sanaa 2 months after the murder of a humvee he diplomatic cables from the time have been released others remain under lock and key the reasons why the government might not declassify which is that is the word to make it public would be perhaps there are intelligence sources there are quotes or connections with individuals who are still alive who might be compromised by what's in the message could be american intelligence people because the yemeni political figures that would be one reason why you might not do it the 2nd might be that there is something in the message which would undermine our relationship it was with another country. another cable this time declassified from british diplomats in saudi arabia in 1977 sheds further details on the denial of saudi involvement it was in response to news agency reports in the region and to

a bulletin on radio moscow the statement added that saudi arabia would stand by those they refer to as their brothers in yemen recognizing the close ties between humvee and saudi arabia. breaking the news to the yemeni people that their president had been killed was a task that fell to al hunt his official spokesman. he was summoned to the office of all hashmi the recently installed president and asked to draft a statement the result was an announcement that was high on emotion and low on details. i would remember the. east peace rally in mona you know. who know if she has a. she let me get collagen emotional and then i will let her

look at the how difficult work and library warholian if you look at who has had it who are who literally. badly look to go for can. have a fever. or the work they are highly. and so that's your 7th day then it's sad that you had that the crew had a swoop but that can and tipped over so we're going to like that i guess how october this would go is that the next i was in the. bad bad. 7 out of baghdad military and we love. you i shall be here many ok. now one of the but he came out i'm going to go with. the coverage all morning it. has to show me i'm up but i was. burning don't. ever

get that. share this young man and that's when you get. mean as your money. i mean. you know little shop you have all but here. are the. men and. the reaction from the international community to the assassination was muted there were regrets and sympathy expressed but little else they became our family had been marred by the world was moving or. because they learned with great sorrow the tragic death of the president of the arab republic of yemen he's
