neighbors are not willing to share theirs which is why sourcing security energy is a hot issue in the middle east when we can get it over we can go think we should and for the last six years israelis have been getting a lot of it from egypt and under water pipeline pumps natural gas from the egyptian city of el of wish to the israeli port of ashkelon. but the revolution in egypt supported by the united states is backfiring on israel the interim cairo government says it's not obliged to sell gas to israel and is pushing to renegotiate the agreement i did who rewinds for several papers from israel he says the deal was always unpopular among egyptians to give. car can. these. people. keep people the egyptian public prosecutor has since ordered an investigation into the deal former president hosni mubarak contributes sons are accused of having personally benefited from it which doesn't surprise you also of poet ski who set up

folks that would be. planting. station in place and working. if no agreement with cairo is reached tel aviv is going to have to function without natural gas for a year and so he's radial stepping up efforts to develop gas wells now being discovered offshore but these two remain a source of dispute between israel and lebanon as beirut claims that they there's either way the gas issue is likely to keep heating up policy r.t. television well here's a quick taste of what's in the program the powder it's a doesn't know where more than six billion dollars sounds iraq has disappeared. and lack of psychological and emotional health is blamed for russia's record breaking

a personal friend i will mention his name who was a very senior u.s. american finance and budget official during this period of time and he told me that when david petraeus was there there was no accountability at all for american money and that david petraeus continued to spend the iraqi money six months say after the c.p.a. the coalition provisional authority had been shut down in june of zero four. iraqi officials are threatening court action to reclaim the money political analyst from the voice of russian radio station believes it's only a matter of time before baghdad sues for the missing funds i would say they probably have some legal claim to that money i don't have a claim to go to court or the u.s. has already said that it took those the money from the oil from those from the

oil fields they've already taken that money seized it in the sanctions against. hussein's iraq so the money is legitimately the iraqis the question is again if the u.s. government can't find the money they'll have to come up with it some way so my feeling is that. they do have some claim to this money some legal claim and it's going to take some time to one of the courts whichever courts they choose to go through probably international courts to get this money back moscow is concerned with washington's reluctance to consider proposals for a joint anti-missile the fan system in europe the u.s. and nato claimed a proposal could stand off a potential attack from iran however russia is worried the plans could pose a threat to national security. the phase adoptive approach to missile defense is broken up into two parts which are number one and number two where the. potency interceptors the plus one interceptors. are on line for phases three and four where the higher speed interceptors will be brought on line and our analysis shows if the

system is reconfigured a little bit that it will have some ability against russian i.c.b.m. so there is some. legitimate concern from from the russian side as to the technical ability in principle of the system being able to intercept russian i think. even neither the first phases nor the second phases would really have an ability against rogue state i.c.b.m. anybody who can make. the list that missiles can also would be corry's on the missile. to overcome the differences. you won't be getting anything extra going to the higher. interceptors the blog to intercept which are due to come on. after twenty or so neither the first two pages nor the thirtieth. of march inheritability. against.
