i know when your actual target audience is u. s. motors. let me ask you then, is there a demographic situation here in terms of young people in taiwan comport compared i should say to the older population the how do they, how do they see it? so young people in taiwan overwhelmingly identify retirement rather than china and their concerns and recent years and about the possibility that i want to lose its democratic freedoms. similar to hong kong, for example, that was seen in the 2014 some farm and example which i myself as a participant in i involving the protest of a trade deal at the then ruling party wanted to sign with china that involved the month long occupational legislature and so i think then, but by many young people welcoming, strengthening. ty is with the rest as a potential ally against china in the sense i think there's also true of japan. one raised in the fall, vice president william wyatt travels japan, for example, to morning should the rest the assassin, which is abi, a former japanese i minister ok. yeah. brian here, if you can stay with us, if you will, and we're going to go back to she had returned c,

i live in washington, d. c. she. we've seen this now. she's here in taiwan. what's gonna happen next? while we understand that she may meet some officials or maybe the not counted as meeting some officials before she retired. so hotel for the for the night. and then she will meet the presidents on wednesday, taiwan time. so that's, that's what we're expecting to come up with. but the, the broad outlines, we don't actually have that many other other details and then she'll continue her trip to around, around, around asia. i think what's interesting though, to, to note is to, you know, we, we just hearing about the salami, sly thing or the, but chipping away of the one china policy as has been seen. we should contextualize this. it's not as if the by the ministration has been particularly, you know, not been particularly provocative on taiwan up to this point. biden himself is made

comments, which in some ways lead to big discussions about whether he is on purpose, adding strategic ambiguity to the strategic ambiguity. of the u. s. as policy towards taiwan, he said the off the cuff, that the us would come to thailand's aid, but was ever invaded. for example, that was followed by speech by the blinking in may, which we covered where he again, sort of fun to be a little bit. again, it's sort entirely clear whether this is actual biking policy to be more provocative on taiwan. or this is the result of joe by not necessarily being in complete command of what he's saying when it comes to taiwan. that is an active discussion here. and in other circles looking at sign a u. s. u. s. relations. now we have nancy pelosi doing this. it does suggest, i mean, and then the question is, why is she doing it? that is the main question that we have in washington dc. why is she doing this? is it because she has no faith in jo biden's stewardship of foreign policy?

when it comes to taiwan, it could be seen. it could be seen as that or as the chinese in some quarters, the sex industry a stalking horse by joe biden, to be more provocative in taiwan. certainly, all the reporting we've seen for just not the administration is against against these visits. so then you get back to domestic issues and i think one of those theories, the why place you might be doing this is because she's facing an enormous potential route in the mid terms coming up. anything that can help her stature, amongst members of congress, who, who's vote that she will rely on to, to retain her as, as the leader of the democrats in the house, for example, is no bad thing. so maybe this is purely for domestic stature. either way, she's got a lot of people, very, very nervous in washington, and certainly the white house she have. thank you. stay with us. we're going to get another comment now from a to harlan international editor of taiwan plus. so we've had the official lines from taiwan, but what are you hearing about what they're saying now?

look, you know, here in taiwan, it has the reaction, has been very muted. and very much unlike what you're seeing on social media in china, where this is nationalistic fervor, no talking about clothes you visit to taiwan and taiwan. it's part of china and all of that. but in taiwan, you know, the best way to describe it. it's cautious. as we heard from, from the previous correspondence she, every time see. and the other guest you had on taiwan has been walking a very, very fine tightrope on this. you know, on the one hand, it's great to have someone so high level coming to tie one, particularly from the us because it led to some kind of a legitimacy. i want. it's important on the name, national stage, and that's all i want has kept having to shout to very loud or we're china's voice in this weekend and across the world to give itself, you know, a bad that boy saying that it has its own right. and it's governance itself, and it is right to exist as its own entity. but on the other hand, this then brings the attention of trying to much at one unwanted aggression from

china to the people. if i want to have largely made very quiet and cautiously watching on this and you know, their concern is that not only could china take those, that kind of an aggressive action against one would be militarily going to hurt them economically. but you know, if you look around right now, the general sense you're getting is people are welcoming nancy pelosi, the government has said that they do welcome friends, although they have not specifically said exactly who these friends are. and if you can see behind me there's a, there's a building that, that's led up that the pipe a want to one. and it's one of the one main landmark here on the further down from light blinking that what the lights are saying is pi one love the u. s. welcome, nancy pelosi, you know, we are friends of democracy. although i have to mention that that it is a commercial building and not a government building. so there is also some kind of excitement here and i healing that. nancy pelosi is visit dos,

lend some legitimacy if i want to give it that important to craig. ok, thank you. we're going to get some more analysis on this now from chen sion yang, a research part about the institute of it's now sure, relations he joins us from type a in taiwan. we very much appreciate your time here. so, what are likely to be the political repercussions of this visit when she's there, and indeed, when she's left. oh, i think of course saw there will be some consequences to put tie, why it take. i don't think, you know, china has worn about the us. but china is not going to take military action against you at all, but taiwan probably will suffer some of the consequences apple low c lifetime one tomorrow. so, so this is what i think tie one is the position that we cannot really refuse to have her visit here because it really help port hi was the international

exposure. but we don't want to be seen as the one who initiated this invitation. i think china probably understood that that taiwan is in no position ah, to say pelosi, it should become me. i should not be coming. it's all her a call. and i think even the united state government was by then claiming that the minute to repel that this was not a good time. so try to, you know, distant the government position from her visit after all, she is of a high level. you know, speaker number's 3 in the us the in terms of ranking, but also she has not being a i would say in particular traditional type of speaker who concentrate on passing the legislation. domestic agenda. she

has another agenda of which is human rights and democracy are on china from t arman square to sheen. jung to, to back to hong kong in taiwan. so china almost had no other way but to protest or to take some action against her visit because she is a persona non grata in baking view and her visit to taiwan. it's almost like a direct challenge through china, one china principal. but in the us, i think it, you know, the government maintain, that it has not changed the position of the u. s. one. china policy and post taiwan is the independence. but her visit will be interpret in beijing are in a different way. and given what you say, then, how is the general public in taiwan taking this thought a please to apprehensive?

i think of some people are pretty apprehensive, but if you are not, and you know in the government, you are not in the military. you are not doing business with china, ordinary citizen probably don't care. maybe feel well, it will be a good thing for her to visit, to somehow concern us assurance of taiwan security. but for those, i mean, we just had china already black lives. a lot of companies in taiwan x sporting goods to china. so those are people who are going to suffer. and people who are in the stock market will worry. and of course, the people who are in our military in the next few days and few weeks will also be very r, apprehensive about china is taking some action. so this is an issue that may be pelosi herself, you know,

even expect that there will be consequences for people of taiwan that she loves. she support it, but we will have to take the consequences and she will not have to ok, chan should yang in tar pay. thank you for that analysis. we're going to go back to the more senior research center for china and the oblong zation from beijing. i'm just going to read to you what we've had here at al jazeera, a line coming from nancy place. he's saying that america's solidarity with the people of taiwan is more important today than ever. what do you make of that? well, i think that this opens a new chapter in the descent between china and relationship between china and the last i'm to go back to some of the comments that were earlier made. i think this

can be viewed that president biden a has a certain degree of plausible deniability, and he can say, well, the military said she shouldn't go, but she went to anyway, but he did not directly say to her, you should not go. i think that this only creates much deeper mistrust. ah, in china towards the united states, towards its intentions. in particular with taiwan. i think it's also important to recognize that here in china, in bay ging, it's not just the chinese government from chinese people. but there is a diplomatic community here as well that i think is apprehensive because the response by china, whether it's military or if it's an asymmetric response. a may have implications for other countries in the region of south korea, japan, uh, but also in europe as well because part of the,

i guess the understanding between china us regarding the ukraine conflict ah, may be subject to a revision now as well. so i think there's this creates a tremendous uncertainty, raises the possibility of conflicts. some might even goes far as to say, this is a sort of june crisis like the one that was the prelude to world war one. there are countries in southeast asia that i think feel very, very uncomfortable, that they may be under even greater pressure now to choose aside in this one of course, i think most countries, like most people, would rather just live their lives in peace and go about their own business without having to worry about these things. when in fact you mention other countries that we've just had, a statement from nancy place is going to be the short part of that. she says, quote, i'll visit is part of our broader trip to the end of pacific,

including singapore, malaysia, south, ker and japan, focused on mutual security, economic partnership, and democratic governance. how does all this go down regionally? will certainly we know from the us perspective that ah, this has been framed ah, as a competition between the u. s. in china, and in particular under the vide in administration, as a contests between democracies and ot, hoffer sees. and the u. s. recognizes that, given china's economic happed, momentum and capacity for governance, look at its ability to mobilize with coven 19 that the u. s. has no hope of winning this contest on its own. so, ah, the creation of alliance is strengthening of alliances, whether that's august the quad, ah nato, that this is a very,

very important component. but, ah, we also have to recognize to just like in the ukraine conflict, many countries, ah, chose not to get involved. so again, we have to see, but this is very escrow, tory, i think it's very destabilizing and whatever. ah, how speaker polo sees, motivations are for doing this, but it's certainly, i think does not serve the interest of a stable china u. s. relationship. busy ok on the market in financing. thank you very much. indeed . are you as to how speak nancy pelosi has been critical of china throughout her political career. 2 years off in 1989 gentlemen. that square cracked down, rosie, as a young congressman went to the iconic spot with the pro democracy banner. she campaigned against beijing's bid to host a 2008 summer olympics to advocate for human rights. she has met the to bitter

nurse spiritual leader, the dalai lama several times. and in 2015, it made a rare trip to the hasa. well, for decades she's been representing various congressional districts in california, which has the nation's largest to asian american population, including those of time in these descent. okay. the back to she hobb returns sierra alive from washington d. c year. we had our heard our guest talk about motivation. is there a legacy issue here for nancy pelosi or, or something to do with the mid term elections? what's the take on this? why i don't, i think i think you, you are very, very cleverly. we just discuss the number of taiwanese constituents you have in our own, in her district. so that clearly about is a part off of this, this visit. we would, we would assume our will say, the fact that the democrats in congress are enormous amount of trouble. and are expected to have a very, very bad time in the mid term elections. her leadership may be at stake off the

democrats in the house following those elections. these are all factors which we have to consider, given politics being, being politics. i think it's interesting that your previous guess in beijing talked about this struggle that bike often talks about autocracy but democracy because in nancy pelosi statement, she that's exactly what she says. america solidarity with a 23000000 people have taiwan. is more important today than ever as the world faces a choice between autocracy and democracy. but then of course, at the end of that statement, she adds that line. the united states continues to oppose unilateral efforts to change the status quo. and clearly this visit is being seen as a unilateral effort to change the status quo by some in, in beijing you were talking about regional responses. what was really interesting when you, when policy was in singapore, was the read out. we got from the singapore ends was that be the singapore in prime minister emphasize the need for stable us china relations?

i mean, that sounds perhaps like a bit of a rebuke because he's basically what we want is stability as, as i think you will guess that, that we just want to live in peace. we don't need this as a sally. you could perhaps read into that, but the point is it clear that the stability of the us, china relationship is so key to it's a fact the conference is just starting to see how blinking then can deals with others and an assay and seeing this is the last thing they want is more turbulence and this is and, but again, the other 5 things from your previous guess from bay ging is, is this about plausible deniability? is there a sense of the bite and ministration? doesn't i? and especially given some of the comments that biting himself has made about taiwan, which suggest a change in the status quo. do they mind ruffling some feathers in engaging or, as we heard from certainly who a lot of us are looking at as a bit of a mouthpiece for the administration. thomas friedman in the new york times, is this completely a disaster for the administration, not least because it looks like biden has no control over someone who supposedly

nominally in his own party as the leader acts as a leader of the house, the speaker of the house but because it is, it is messing up very delicate negotiations with the bite business which the bite administration is having with trying to specifically about ukraine. and i got the thought to go to some details. thank you biden, spend a great deal of as to our 17 minute conversation with president she last week, urging china threatening china is a suggestion not to replenish russia's stockpiles of, of, of almonds and drones, and in particular, and that's bearing fruits. and now the administration is very worried that this may sculpture, but again, the suggestion is in this article, pelosi didn't really know about that or she doesn't know what she's doing. and this does not have the bear impairment to her on on it. having said that bird, we for u. s. foreign policy can be a very complex thing. indeed, she have

a can see live in washington, d. c. thank you. or taiwan is about a 160 kilometers from china's south east coast. it sits on it so called 1st island chain, which includes us friendly territory is crucial to washington's foreign policy. much of the chain is roughly situated in waters claimed by china, stretching from the japanese archipelago, the new queue islands, taiwan, and to the philippines. it forms the 1st line of defense and marks my attire, boundaries in the region. we're going to go back to a d. v over palin international editor of taiwan plus sir, well, give us an overview of, of what this could mean going forward. nancy pelosi landing here, i mean could mean so many things. now back in 1997, you rich the house speaker at the time landed in fi one. and of course that were

very harsh words from china. taiwan also got some legitimacy from that visit with greenwich g. gingrich, of course, was on the republican side and now we're seeing nancy pelosi in the democratic side . so who's a bipartisan issue of the u. s. showing it supports for tie one, but you know, you have to remember back the and china wasn't that powerful as it was, china did not have this kind of a military. and, but the p l a wasn't even, you know, half of what we see now today. and so when trying to set those words and then trying to push their aggressive language and threat taiwan was taiwan and the us looked on and took notes. it wasn't, it didn't have the weight, it does now. and so now we're china saying what i'm saying, and you know, i had to, and i have been saying that, so you know, china is going to claim taiwan back, you know, piece by piece, a really cation already, whatever means. now this,

but i want in a very awkward position, especially, you know, you've teach, i want to make those moves on those, this period to the island that you've mentioned that built bases on those island sharp fishes, lee and quietly. so you know, suddenly with pie one front and center and time has always use that as a centerpiece of its, you know, part of the nation building. taiwan now coming and being recognized by the u. s. in such a way at brits, both china and taiwan in a very awkward position and not to say the u. s. also. and especially this comes at the time when tensor tensions are so high between all 3. so, you know, this was high one in the middle of what could be us, china tensions in a not, but you know, in its own then someone's own south. what's it in a very awkward position where china, where it doesn't have the military might to stand up against china. you know,

she had mentioned ukraine and russia and all of that. and so once been watching that so carefully, you know, for so long, nobody expected russia to invade ukraine. you know, those that been building up militarily on the sides. so china's actions again suddenly take on a lot more meaning at this point, when we're seeing that conflict happening along with china's growing might okay, are difficult. harlan the in sonata editor of taiwan plus in type a thank you for that. we've just been seeing these pictures of for years. how speaker nancy pelosi landing in taiwan and being met by a delegation there. she said, our visit is part of our broader trip to the in the pacific, including singapore, malaysia, south korea and japan. and she said, quote, our congressional delegations visit to taiwan honors americas on the waiver and

commitment to supporting ty ones vibrant democracy ah other news value as present, joe biden says, justice has been delivered after confirming the killing of al qaeda's leader in afghanistan, while the drone strike was carried out by the c i a in cobble on sunday. barden approved the operation last week after months of planning. when i ended our military mission of kansas and almost a year ago, i made the decision that after 20 years of war, the united states no longer needed thousands of boots on the ground in afghanistan to protect america from tours who seek to do us harm. and i made a promise to the american people that we continue to conduct effective counters and operations in afghanistan and beyond. we've done just that was our,

he was traced to a house in a busy neighbourhood where several embassies are based. other family members were reportedly unharmed in the attack. egyptian surgeon took a charge of al qaeda after some had been loudon was killed in 2011. he helped coordinate the 911 attacks on us and killed nearly 3000 people with them. a homage tom june has more now on the man. it was our kite, his 2nd most prominent figure after osama bin lun. aimen. and so he had long been a deputy to osama bin laden, but after the u. s. killing of the vin and car, the leader in 2011. so why he took charge of the armed group attempting to expand its reach while never engendering the kind of loyalty afforded his predecessor. so while he did inherit the mantle of leadership, he did not inherit was on, but let his legitimacy as a well judge had needa all his a credibility and legitimacy on karima amongst the various mal jayden groups born

in egypt in 1951. so ari came from a distinguished family, studied medicine, and became a surgeon. in 1973, he joined the egyptian islamic jihad group. the assassination of president unwell said that the nice and $81.00 for which the group was blamed prove to be a turning point for so i think while he was not charged in connection with the dots killing, he was imprisoned on conspiracy charges. one of thousands of religious activists jailed and tortured after the assassination. many analysts say that experience would eventually lead him to violence after his release from prison. so i had he left egypt for shower in pakistan, where he worked as a doctorate, treating afghan fighters. then it was on to afghanistan where he fought against the soviet occupation and where he began his partnership within latin. within a few years, both men would become part of the core group that became al qaeda. under their leadership, the armed group accused the west of waging

a modern day crusade against muslims and set as its ultimate goal. the establishment of islamic rule throughout the world. at a car does ideology, along with its international campaign of violence, culminated in the 911 attacks. washington offered a reward of $25000000.00 to bring the wiley to justice off shoots of the armed group in yemen. somalia and algeria are widely believed to be his work these off to win those on the blood and was assassinated and aim of the lady to cova. you can see the fracturing of the organization becoming more and more apparent once the syrian civil war began. so i had, he found that al, flagged as dominance was being increasingly challenged by isolate which had carved out territory for itself in it up syria and libya, and had fighters in yemen in 2016. so i had a urged afghan fighters to rally around the taliban and reject isolate branch in afghanistan. a duel is learning loosely me, when i call upon the brotherly muslims and jihad, he's in general. and enough, con a son in particular to get behind the jihad, the patient and the steadfast emerald,

and not to respond to the cause aimed at dividing the ranks of jihad. he's off today, the death of aimen. and so i had, he brings an end to one of the most turbulent times in recent international security. the world will now be watching to see how elko the handles, the death of its 2nd prominent leader. will mike hannah joins us live now from outside. the white house and like the white house, very much portraying this has a victory very much so president biden's staff insisting that this is evidence that despite the withdrawal from an upcoming stand, the u. s. is continuing to protect a u. s. interests within that country. now, a senior administration official has given a detailed timeline off this whole operation. it began back in april. you said when information was received that so hardy and his family were in a safe house in kabul, they then started to observe over a period of weeks what is described as a pattern of life. and then on the 1st of july, last month,

president biden was briefed on the situation on the white house as release this picture taken in the situation room of the president, being brief by his senior security staff, including the director of the cia whose staff may well have been piloting the drone that fired the 2 hill farm, the south that killed our harry at last monday. this just over a week ago, president biden was briefed again. he asked all sorts of questions according to the national security advisor. and then he gave the go ahead for the operation. that operation was carried out saturday night u. s. time early sunday morning. in cub all at the announcement of the attack was delayed in order says the security official to ascertain that there were no civilian casualties in this attack. so very much being held as the success by the white house and evidence that the withdrawal from afghanistan does not mean that it has stopped fighting what it calls the war against terror. mike hanna,

thank sir very much for that. well, zero's early the t fees on the scene and sent us this report were here in the neighborhood where i'm and i was, i was, he was allegedly killed. and as you can see, this is a perfectly residential area. there's travel agencies, there's grocery stores, there's banks, all of these things are leading to increasing worry among the us. who feel that the outcry, the leader was being housed in a perfectly residential urban center of the city. and at the same time, the tall barn is upset that a year after their occupation ended, the u. s. is still conducting drone strikes on what they consider to be sovereign avalon territory assault on america, his professor in conflict on humanitarian studies at the doha institute. he joins us from york in the united kingdom. thanks for being on the program. what does this mean? do you think for the relationship between the taliban and the u. s. i

feel it will further undermine the level of trust between united states and the taliban. and that is already been a driven go over the last few months starting from end of march 23rd of march. when the taliban made a u. turn on the issue of education for girls. and then in mid may, there was another decree in relation to a code of dress strict code of dress for women and so on. so there has been a number of, of, for you turns on promises that the taliban have made and have not met. and this is probably the one day a one most critical amongst those and for many months, right from the beginning of the withdrawal, the security side of the relationship has gone there with very little challenges on,

on either side. the evacuation operation which then became were very settlement operation continued over of many weeks and in fact probably continues into now. and the taliban have honored their side of that equation. the issue of having a senior member of either i think it hits the heart of the know hi agreement which was signed on the 29th of february 2020. which maybe it misinterpreted differently by, by the 2 sides. the taliban. see the role in preventing derek threads to then i states from the afghan soil, while the americans emphasize the fact that the prevention includes not hosting and not cooperating, and not allowing any one that united states perceive as a threat to a security from her living within afghanistan, and therefore, so i hadn't suddenly turned up in this district or within the capital. i think it's,

it's quite a big issue. and reports say that to her that we're hearing may have been in some kind of safe house. does that say anything about the relationship between al qaeda and the taliban? with the 2 ways to interpret it either they there is a relationship, maybe with some of the some of the managers within a within taliban. or they were caught off guard and the war heavy may be supported by intelligent services from around the region has moved into capital. now, it was a known fact that he was living around the border areas with pakistan. but coming to to cobble either, whether it is a good ised or caught off guard, does it look good? because the one main benefit so far from the taliban having taken over power in advance time has been the security that they brought into the country. and the

death war related death or via direct violence will dropped almost 220 since they've taken over power. and they claim to have full control in terms of security across the country. and if they do have full control, then how did also a hurry that come to live in capital. so i think there is a lot of for expanding to be done. and it is a great to unfortunate because the humanitarian needs in the country requires taliban to try a normalized relationship with the rest of the world as, as, as fast as possible. they are seeking recognition. they are seeking land. in fact, international media has been considering lifting sanctions on the tiny van over the last few weeks, and i fear all of that will now be delayed. as a result of this incident, indeed, you mention a humanitarian situation. i mean,

what effect will this have on the general population in afghanistan, if anything, when you consider the day to day struggles that people have to go through i think in terms of support coming from outside the country, those who have been arguing for the, for retail assistance and the need to separate the politics from the retainer needs will probably now find it slightly more difficult to do so because this infringement is clearly was clearly mentioned in the agreement. and it has gotten really crossed the red line if you like, in terms of what can be ambiguous and what cannot be in terms of interpretations. so maybe we'd expect less level of support from the outside. there will be delays in terms of lifting sanctions, particularly on the transfer of money or the restoration of the banking system, the opening australia with the rest of the world. so they will eventually, the people who can stand will suffer even more. okay, we'll have to leave it there,

so turn back out. thank you very much indeed for that analysis thing. let's go back now to our top story and nancy pelosi is trip to taiwan. well, here are some of the reactions from beijing. the defense ministry says the p l. a that's attorneys military is on high alert launch targeted military operations to counter policies visit china's foreign ministry has responded saying the visits severely impacts the political foundations of china. us relations with china, stationed armored vehicles in the port city of shimon ahead of places visit military vehicles, were seen patrolling bridges and streets in the strategic city across a straight from taiwan, social media, images and videos show vehicles and tanks on some beaches to well, china's eastern military command will carry out her well joint sea and air training

and s space north southwest and southeast of taiwan. let's take a closer look at the history between the u. s. and china, in relation to taiwan, while in 1979 at washington and beijing established full diplomatic relations. us pledged to respect the so called one china policy and dropped its formal ties with taiwan. and 2001 at present. george bush was asked whether the u. s would have an obligation to defend taiwan if china chose to attack his response was yes. on the 2019 president, trump signed the time pay act. james, to increase the scope of us relations with taiwan. it has received billions of dollars in military aid. and as of this yet a u. s. department of state since it opposes any unit, actual changes to the status quo. mahonnan clink, his a former u. s. deputy assistant secretary of defense for east asia. he explains wipe those

east trip has angered beijing so much the chinese that certainly o invaded telegraph of their anger at the visit of the speaker, and have already ratcheted up that sanction even further. in the taiwan spray. i hearings of sent warships and warplanes towards the median line, as well as conducting some live pirates side. i anticipate that taiwan will bear the run all asians anger. and i also anticipate that in the days and weeks to come, we will see chai, want china of continue to pressure taiwan in both military ways as well as 3 comic wars. the relationship between the united states, china is at a low of for visit, is not going to make that even worse. in my opinion,

china has demonstrated particularly under the leadership of sheets and ping that it is conducting a or policy. and the security policy that is assertive and aggressive neighbors as well as others all over the world. we have seen the regression and hong kong. we've seen the abuse and she and john not to mention the office cation coming out of cobit 19. so i do not think that whether or not speaker travels i was going to make things any worse. the thing that i would have recommended would have been to keep it a low profile visit without any advanced notification. that's moved to news in iraq . now whether i report that influential shared lead, i'm up tall, elsa has told his supporters to withdrawal from the parliament while they took over apartment building on saturday, entered, occupied it since dosage. barry joins us live inside baghdad. parliament building

goes to what's happening well, as you can hear and see really these demonstrators have a few hours ago, even though the adviser center has said that they have 72 hours to activate this building. but that they should continue to occupy the surrounding areas within the grounds of the iraqi parliament. some of the testing that was hoping to over the past few minutes, they said that they're not going anywhere until they are forced to even though this statement has been issued. it doesn't seem to be tripling down here to the processors on the ground. for the most part, they say they are here and that they are part of the so called peaceful revolution . or is that true from the political weeks ago saying process that was for the his opponents with said that what is taking place?
