on our website that is d.-day when you don't contest i'm having a home free thanks for joining me and see you again see. the 1st day of school in the. first class. and then the shores of grand moment arrive join the arena take on her journey to. our interest to turn to iraq and the rioting returns home. september 1st 19th century. germany's invasion of poland touched off world war 2.

18 years later the heads of state and government commemorate the suffering of its minute to. the ceremonies in poland. tomorrow until. this week well story. struck since stokes fears of new conflict annihilate a taxi driver from dublin becomes an opera star but 1st we start off in iran much of the world's oil supply paul says through the strait of hormuz now the conflict between iran and the u.s. is affecting people on the silent. it's early morning in the sun beating down on

the island of formosa's relentless there's no natural water and few other resources for that matter. despite that the island has been highly valued for centuries as a strategic location portugal for instance constructed this fortress back in 1507 to control mara team traffic in the persian gulf today the strait of hormuz is once again witness to conflict as the standoff over british like tankers seized by iranian authorities continues a fisherman takes us out into the straight past the island of la rock the iranian military uses the island to monitor the area which includes the narrow passage all ships must pass through to reach the largest oil ports in the region. currently very few international tankers use iranian waters to navigate the strait many fear being swept up in the conflict between washington and tehran and the iranian military is not alone as it petrols these waters the u.s.

has also deployed ships into the persian gulf the u.s. wants to strengthen its presence here to guarantee the passage of international cargo ships which has angered the iranian government as well as the iranian people . i don't think the. president from the region itself that's a part of iran's political culture or not to you know. actors in the region. few people on the island or for movies seem interested in politics they're just hoping there will be a swift end to the regional standoff. bene's m. and a if the tensions are resolved the entire economy improve and we're part of that. everyone is out of work here in hormuz i don't know what to do with my wife and kids we can't all live on fishing alone. if you think things would improve for

tourism more tourists would pay a visit to this island and that way it could develop. without stability turning homo's into a popular tourist destination remains a distant prospect. our next story takes us to northern ireland with a no deal brick secluding people here fear the irish border will be closed and that they worry could spark a crisis a return to the period of violence known as the trouble is. one of the most popular activities these days for visitors to belfast is a troubles too are we hog 137 people hospitalized there were horrific injuries there were people multiple loss of limbs they were guides like paul donnelly navigate what's called a history of terror. deadly clashes between protestant supporters of british rule

and catholics wanting to unite with the republic of ireland were largely ended in 2 decades ago by a power sharing deal known as the good friday agreement but now the looming prospect of a new deal breck's it could mean the return of checkpoints along the irish border and that has people like donnelly warning that former anti british guerrillas known as dissident republicans might have bandon the peace process stops that the end of a hard border that gives the public comes a contemporary justification for their violence you know it's not just ideological saying this is an abstract anymore look at those groups along the border this is deferential and what they see is this part of art and from the rest of it you know there are. worries over a hard border and the loss of other rights are compelling even some former pro british loyalists to consider the once unthinkable uniting northern ireland and the

republic of ireland the good friday agreement means northern ireland can take a vote on doing just that belfast new lord mayor john finn you can wants to make sure citizens are well educated about their options while hoping they'll back unification his party should feign open. he lobbies for that it's a cause that colored his life he was just 9 years old when he saw his father a prominent republican human rights lawyer shot dead by pro british paramilitaries despite getting death threats himself as he took office in may when you can believe the time is right to move forward will be brax it doesn't automatically mean that unification will happen but what i do think is that it means that the conversation haase to happen because the conversation has already started not just from people within the north but people all over the island of ireland and certainly within europe as well. billy hutchinson a city council member from the progressive unionist party served 16 years in prison for 2 sectarian murders hutchinson says he's rejected violence but he's worried

others haven't what i concerned about is the people will try to use arizona's from bracket. from the the border post as an excuse to start another war. recent surveys suggest most people in northern ireland prefer to stay part of britain for now but those who want to united ireland say they are in no hurry expecting a chaotic for access to health that keeps. taxi driver many seemed born from duck and has always enjoyed singing arias on the road a passenger recorded him and put the video online it went viral and now the south african capital is a stock benzine is just 27 years old but half of south africa already knows he shot to fame when a passenger filmed him singing opera in this taxi and the video went viral.
