of president trump. cesar sayoc faces up to 48 years in prison if found guilty of federal crimes including illegal mailing of explosives. the fiancee of the journalist jamal khashoggi has spoken for the first time about her pain following his murder. in a tearful interview with a turkish television channel, hatice cengiz spoke of her panic when mr khashoggi did not emerge from the saudi consulate in istanbul. health officials in the gaza strip say israeli forces have shot and killed five palestinians during protests along the border with israel. the demonstrations have been ongoing since march. israel says around 10,000 palestinians had gathered along the border and were throwing missiles at israeli troops. the billionaire businessman sir philip green has told the bbc he'll lodge a formal complaint against the labour peer lord hain, who named him in parliament as the man facing allegations of sexual and racist harrassment. it comes after it was revealed

lord hain is a paid adviser to the law firm representing the newspaper that wants to publish the allegations. lord hain says he was unaware the lawyers were involved in the case. sir philip green denies any wrongdoing. emma simpson has the latest. sir philip green, one of the country's most colourful tycoons, owner of a retail empire, never far from the headlines, and now he's embroiled in yet more controversy with allegations of sexual and racial harassment. his name was made public by former cabinet minister peter hain, using rules that stop those talking in parliament from being sued. i feel it's my duty under parliamentary privilege to name philip green as the individual in question. after days of speculation, sir philip has become front—page news. up until then, there'd been an injunction in place by three seniorjudges, stopping

the daily telegraph from naming him. it's now fired up a debate about whether parliamentary privilege is being misused. tonight, the former head of the judiciary of england and wales has weighed in. he used parliamentary privilege in a way which is entirely inappropriate. parliamentary privilege is not meant to allow individual members of either house to interfere with the process of the courts. whatever we think of sir philip — and i don't know the man — but he's not the world's most popular person at the moment, he's entitled to go to a court, just like anybody else. it's emerged in the parliamentary register of interests that peter hain is a paid adviser at the law firm gordon dadds, used by the daily telegraph. he's categorically denied he was aware of its work on this case. gordon dadds said he'd had no involvement either. do you mind not looking at me like that all the time? it's really disturbing.

sir philip has had more than his fair share of brushes with mps, and some think it's right that he was named. these allegations had been swirling around all week, and they are only allegations at this stage, but there's a very strong public interest reason why people deserve to be told who they were about, and let's not forget, this is because this man tried to hush up the complainants, or alleged victims, and also the press, and it shouldn't be that the rich and powerful can buy their way out of trouble against the poor and impotent. there was no sign of sir philip at his home in monaco today, nor his yacht in the marina. but he's already given a statement saying: so what now? the telegraph has written to sir philip asking that the injunction be dropped. while the paper is still protecting

the details of the allegations, that seems unlikely. if both sides dig in, then a trial is expected in the new year, which will determine what can be published. emma simpson, bbc news, central london. now on bbc news: in 2007, the bbc filmed with a group of us soldiers in baghdad, and now, a decade after their return from iraq, our world tracks them down to find them still struggling to adjust to life back home. the programme contains some graphic images of war you may find upsetting. in 2007, an intense struggle was taking place in one of the most violent areas of iraq. the us army was fully engaged. as a bbc correspondent and cameraman, we

watch them fight their lives. correspondent and cameraman, we watch them fight their liveslj correspondent and cameraman, we watch them fight their lives. i was positive i wasn't coming home. i knew it, just because we were losing quys knew it, just because we were losing guys left and right. there wasn't anything left in there to bleed out with. he was gone. now more than a decade later, we wanted to look at the effect of the iraq war on those who we met. dislike out of nowhere. i could barely hold on, i had to run into the woodland, just crying. what is wrong with me? coming home was odd. there is a switch you are supposed to be able to, you cannot shut it off. the sleep was bad and it was like man, the slightest noise i would wake up, and it was consta ntly i would wake up, and it was constantly like that. i am mark bourbon, and this is a story about how war changes people. —— urban. how it binds them, why they go and how life afterwards is never quite

the same. the men of second platoon company to 12 inch and —— infantry came from the heartlands. places like 0klahoma, texas and pennsylvania. we have tracked them down, a plainspoken sample of the nearly 4 million americans who served in iraq and afghanistan. a distinct cohort of society that now lives with the consequences of what was called "the waron consequences of what was called "the war on terror". i had a little bit of the post 911 fever, a little bit of the post 911 fever, a little bit of bitterness, hostility towards the people who carried out the attack. i think ijust people who carried out the attack. i think i just wanted people who carried out the attack. i think ijust wanted a little bit of adventure. and i got it. it is one of those things that had been ducking at me ever since i was a kid. i kind ofjust have that opportunity. i said i wanted to do the stuff they did on the recruiting

videos. he said, that would be infantry, and i said yeah, why not. this is coming up on post— gator. there are marion —— there and madge and war collided with reality in a place called agro one. —— called al—dora. in 2007, the islamic state in its first incarnation was trying to seize this southern suburb of baghdad. the americans opposed them by putting an outpost right in the middle of al—dora market. as the insurgents did everything they could to dislodge the americans, cameraman mark mcauley and i embedded with them and witnessed the fight. time to rock ‘n‘ roll. coming out? them and witnessed the fight. time to rock 'n' roll. coming out? a couple of small firefights.

machine—gun fire. couple of small firefights. machine-gun fire. getting shot at around the truck. sniper fire. i got hit by an ied. we have rpg 's, rockets coming. we found in the second platoon group of men who are open and philosophical about the business at hand. when you see generals, you think they have a grasp of what is going on? they are able to project what they want to. you know? they wanted to look stable so you know? they wanted to look stable so they project stability. i am sure they are well aware of the situation. team one, first order of movement. dorian perez was the first sergeant, a father to get to the platoon, he was indelibly marked by its experience. i am dealing with these depressions, dealing with sometimes i am really happy, on top of life, everyone sees this big smiling guy having a great time. and

then sometimes in the middle of the night, i wake up at 2am and... what now? no sleep, no rest, you do that for periods of time, up to a month maybe. i deemed my helmet yesterday. i love this, i am going to make a necklace out of it. it will be my good luck charm. nick butler ella, then 20 years old survived several bomb strikes. now back in florida he is working in a hospital —— mazzarella. we had an objective and i feel like we are confident objective but i am always going to be bitter about the lives that we sacrificed to accomplish that goal. i see it is like voodoo. straight up voodoo. that is howl i see it is like voodoo. straight up voodoo. that is how i come back in time, that is my thing. cody edmondson was a readier graduate and a father when he went to al—dora.

edmondson was a readier graduate and a father when he went to al-dora. we got hit with everything you can think of. we got rpg is, more rounds, it was nuts. it was all like ten minutes, i was like, my eyes, i was like, "this is going to be a bad year. we have a truck load up a few weeks ago and two of my friends got killed. that was a big explosion, that was a real bad one. this was benjaminjones' first that was a real bad one. this was benjamin jones' first operation and tour, he was 2a when we first talked and he is now 35. soldiers and marines have to be trained to go through a firefight and make the right moves in the right decisions without totally losing it. but they can't make it so that you can necessarily properly deal with it later on. after you have had time to internalise it. nick mazzarella left the army eight years ago, returning to fort myers in florida and the support of his family. his kids are

at school they are, and a key part of what keeps him grounded. 91. nice, that is an a. tell me about your day. you know i don't nice, that is an a. tell me about your day. you knowl don't like burgers so i had fish. but he feels it is too early to tell them what he did in iraq. he has been dealing with the psychological start of that tour ever since his platoon got back from al—dora. —— psychological stars. -- scars. i had quite a few nights of drinking a lot to try to numb the pain, as my wife will tell you, she had to sit there and listen to me bawling my eyes out, pretty much like a drunk, talking about the quys much like a drunk, talking about the guys i lost and all the pain i was going through. —— blackout drunk.

nick mazzarella has his own way of unwinding, keeping the memories in check. even though i hate it when i was in the army, i have a rucksack in my garaged and i like to strap it on and walk over the bridge, or walk around the park for hours, miles and miles, with a little bit of music in my years, that is really therapeutic. —— inmate years. —— music in my years on the mac ears. benjaminjones music in my years on the mac ears. benjamin jones returned music in my years on the mac ears. benjaminjones returned to pennsylvania, a few miles from where he grew up. like nick, he took advantage of education opportunities after the army, and that helped him get a job with the police. but a decade ago, like most of the married man in the platoon, he found his relationship in a downward spiral

will stop i don't know to was because i had changed or she had changed or we both did. but we were not the people we had been. and it just didn't work any more. it was a long road home for cody edmondson, back to his roots in oklahoma. he worked in construction like he did before the army, putting life back together after his first marriage and his ambition to be an army pilot collapsed. but even getting back from al—dora years ago, he knew things were wrong. so i set up an all— new routine, kind things were wrong. so i set up an all—new routine, kind of like, oh, your kid doesn't recognise you from the first two weeks, so it is a difficult position to be in. but the marriage didn't fare well. after the army, dorian perez studied

agriculture. he has been working with farmers, encouraging better practices in north carolina. he was married at the time of al—dora, but he is single now. i came back, assumed everything was how it was when i left, and actually she realised that she no longer had those feelings to me. i remember that the me into a bad spot, but i didn't get hateful or anything —— that puts me into a bad spot. the dorian and the others, troubled relationships heralded further battles, struggles of the mind that loom just around the corner. dorian has gone to the vietnam war memorial in washington. his father is a vetera n in washington. his father is a veteran of that war and perhaps it was his example that led dorian into combat. but people who have

experienced battle know that it can leave a bitter legacy in the mind, post—traumatic stress disorder. leave a bitter legacy in the mind, post-traumatic stress disorder. my original position was that ptsd is not real, it is in the people are using to get some money from the v8. i went out walking with the unit because i was part of a training command, and someone throws a flash bang because that is how you demonstrate an ied in a training environment. and just out of nowhere, i was like, i could barely hold on, i had to run out of the woodland, i do start crying. what the hell is wrong with me? what's up, brother, how are you doing? it is nearly ten years since then and doran that. but the former staff sergeant has travelled to pennsylvania to put that right. this

is great because i have a long distance and for close quarters i have 45 degrees offset. both of them have 45 degrees offset. both of them have suffered from their experience of violence. but both of them find in firearms comfort and a hedge against the anxiety that iraq has left them with. i get out of the army and i have my pistol, my a5. and i guess that was my comfort, you know? you get so used to sleeping with your weapon within arms reach, you know? my pistol start off at my nightstand. and it up with slip it under my pillow. my hypervigilance went up is done as time progressed. i wanted a closer and closer. this is not like is a pistol with a cold chamber can it is locked and loaded, ready to become to the door. the net, that this bar has become a place to switch off after work at a nearby mental health clinic. but

like many in old soldier, he is not bound his relationship with alcohol easy. his mother told me she is worried about his tendency to isolate himself to drink. she can tell that the ptsd and heavy drinking don't help. it is pretty detrimental. but she is a really good mother and she reaches out to me all the timejust good mother and she reaches out to me all the time just to ask how i am doing and if there is anything she can do, andjust doing and if there is anything she can do, and just to remind doing and if there is anything she can do, andjust to remind me doing and if there is anything she can do, and just to remind me that she loves me, and that is one of the key components of me functioning very well right now. nick's ambition is to become a psychiatric nurse dealing specifically with veterans. he is all too aware of the burden they all share. all of us came home with life changing injuries, you know? you'll get banged up and tossed around to the point. the

many, there are recurrent dreams and agonised thoughts about what they might have done differently. thornlie, those thoughts often dwell ona thornlie, those thoughts often dwell on a loss, it who could have been him. -- on a loss, it who could have been him. —— for dorian. on a loss, it who could have been him. -- for dorian. it can't sting isa him. -- for dorian. it can't sting is a little bit because could have been me. it was him. one of the biggest things that i struggled with is survivors guilt, feeling like he died andi is survivors guilt, feeling like he died and i should have done more to stop it. if i had gone this way is it that way, if i had done this or that, kind of stuff runs through my head on a daily basis. this is staff sergeant jarrod poort no. head on a daily basis. this is staff sergeantjarrod poort no. lives during ourfirst in bed, he was not there for the second. he was shot in 0ctober there for the second. he was shot in october 2000 and seven. some of the

quys october 2000 and seven. some of the guys grabbed forteneau introduced at the —— and try to stop the bleeding. i was tragedy cpr and keep alive but he was totally unresponsive. they couldn't hospital, but too late. the adrenaline war off on the emotions came flooding in. we sat down and had a smoke. some guys came up to wash the blood out of the humvee and that was that. he was gone. while they had been trying to save forteneau, and apache helicopter arrived to take at the sniper who shot him. see one man pass a rival to another very wall currently engaged a car with three people in it. i have watched that a billion

times. should it make me feel good? i don't know. i do know that is right or not. but it does. it at least lets me know that the guy that pull the trigger in his —— and his getaway driver were not going to do that to another marine or civilian. the effects of ptsd are now blamed for a national epidemic in veteran suicide. in the year after al—dora, and none of the second attempt of their own lives. but following their next tour in afghanistan, one soldier dead. so nearly four and a

half thousand american troops were killed in action in iraq. but between 2005 and the end of this year, the figure of veterans lost to suicide will reach 100,000. those people who served in various conflicts, but the startling is the number: 22 a day. so he thought, of course, should i just number: 22 a day. so he thought, of course, should ijust die, you know? i assure across course, should ijust die, you know? i assure across as course, should ijust die, you know? i assure across as everybody‘s mind. maybe that's not true. it has crossed my mind. the really need to still be here, type of thing. they have never been that point where i consider myself a risk. seven months later, we were invaded again with the second platoon to see what had changed. we are pushing into al—dora, which is a district in the

south of baghdad. we witnessed a remarkable transformation. they put up remarkable transformation. they put up walls to shut out sectarian death squads, and the local militia, many former insurgents, were recruited to help keep the peace. it's like before, we go in, and it is like, oh, that the americans here. now it is like hague, the americans are here. it was an extra rich ain't. but for the a0 men to play with britain, three had been killed, and more than a dozen wounded. it was ha rd more than a dozen wounded. it was hard won and these orders were not sure it had been worth it. no. not even close. it wasn't worth a single one of them. i know that the soldiers that we lost out here died very reason. i'm not exactly sure what that reason was. today, that issue still resonates. a rabbinic saying in the old videos that he wouldn't read one of his guys for any of those people. and part of me

feels that way, yes, for sure. but we also sign the dotted line and said we would do what was needed. so to me, partially, part of that was, yes, 0k, to me, partially, part of that was, yes, ok, that is what i signed up for. if i said it wasn't worth it, thenl for. if i said it wasn't worth it, then i feel like they would be saying that all my friends died in vain. andl saying that all my friends died in vain. and i can't get myself to that point. i think at least very few years what we did in the al—dora district made it so that people who would live a sheet life would appeal to look back and say, i revel in there were good times. —— sort. maybe that made it worth it for something. in those ten years, we have had me leakey, i saw, the defacing of those ancient artefacts.

-- isil. that defacing of those ancient artefacts. —— isil. that is because of policy created. so now, ten years later, i do know that is worth it any more. created. so now, ten years later, i do know that is worth it any morelj hope that we have learnt our lesson when it comes to trying to fix other countries and not focusing as much a narrow and, if you would like, we look out with a little too much, if you like. there is a lot to do here on the home front. it is interesting talking to the soldiers about where they have emerged politically as a result of their life experience and their service. a couple of them feel really there is nobody now who represents them politically in the american set up. one of them is a keen trump support. but the thing that unites all of them is that strong feeling that america should

no longer be the world's policeman, but focusing on proms at home. —— trump supporter. in 0klahoma, cody has his own release in hobbies, most of all the hunting with his brother. he makes his own bullets and built this rifle. he has remarried and believes that has turned his life around. i met my new wife, rande. she really got me and understood me. she really got me and understood me. she totally, she said bill, man, you need to get your act together, let's do this. so she did. she kind of kicked me but into gear and i started working again, successfully. —— kicked my butt. started working again, successfully. -- kicked my butt. dorian is moving to alaska to work with farmers there. why alaska? it is the last frontier. a degree of it is peace. i

do— iphone comfort, sometimes being around people, mostly when i am out in his people where i have experienced what i feel the presence of god. places are standing on top of god. places are standing on top ofa mountain of god. places are standing on top of a mountain at sunrise. in pennsylvania, benjamin jones, meanwhile, is moot married, has a newjob at the police, and is raising his kids, one of them he is named gibson, a reminder of william gibson, who was killed in al—dora. iran says he was named after the guitar. i say no, he was named after a friend who died in iraq. ifeel if we forget — if we forget our fallen brothers, that we are invalidating them. that is if we don't remember

them, and if we don't tell their stories, and talk about what kind of men they were, who is going to remember them? and if they are not remembered, was what they did was the sacrifice that they made, even worthwhile? there are countless reminders of the ways in which the second platoon is still fighting. and their experience now marks the next generation as well as their own. hello. cold arctic air in place for the weekend. some with glorious sunshine. 0thers wish our after shower, particularly if you are in an area exposed to the strong northerly wind. northern scotland,
