welcome back here with our t.v. here's a look at the top stories and breaking news here in the network nato troops use tear gas to disperse crowds of serbs refusing to dismantle barricades along cosmo's norman border as ethnic tensions flare up again troops removed the roadblocks that have been mounted since the summer to block cars of an authority from controlling the serb dominated area. moscow warns it could deploy missiles on the borders of human flu out of its nuclear arms cuts deal with the u.s.

if washington pursues as the fans shield in europe the white house has a will go ahead with its plants. souses of the fine egyptian step of the earth demands for an answer to the country's military rule with live bullets having been fired at crowds people remain in top three or square following six days of unrest. the next hour he talks to a former u.s. state department spokesman who shares his thoughts about what challenges lie ahead for people and countries where the regimes were toppled philip j. crowley gives his take on washington's policies in the middle east and northern africa that interview is coming up next. and there are times in the state department as to how hard it was to explain to the people that the us brings peace and democracy with its interventions as in in reality. the struction. but you know

i believe earnestly in the best of intentions of u.s. policy a stable peaceful prosperous middle east is in everyone's interest there's no question that the united states with the best of intentions intervened in iraq in two thousand and three we were out really understanding not only what was going to happen inside iraq we thought it would be easy inexpensive quick and those judgments were all profoundly wrong. understanding that in the intervention one of the big winners for some time was iran and a resurgent iran had implications within the gulf and across the broader region certainly was not something that united states wanted to see happen so the interventions were. under the best of intentions they have produced significant gains but they also have had unintended consequences that one of mr ation didn't

recognize coming in not everything the united states did work in fact many things united states did did not work so he had to step back and say what you had in spite of all these mistakes is a rock better off today than it was before i think the answer is yes he does does united states share that responsibility yes but i'm not alone i mean there are people even today who are attacking a legitimate iraqi government and their institutions because they were the group in power ten years ago and now they're not they also have a responsibility iran has faced and the launching of unfounded accusations recently of a plot to cause saudi ambassador a christian had with producing nuclear weapons etc that's p.r. campaigns are family to war. i we thing iraq and i am all the rice and.

there's no question that there's a competition going on there's been a competition between iran and the united states ever since the revolution so it's a thirty year competition but there's also a competition between iran and saudi arabia for for regional ascendancy in and around the gulf some of this is playing out in syria and so this is playing out directly in the gulf in the increasing tensions between iran and saudi arabia so how much would a strike on iran costing american army well. this is not about the american economy this is about the global economy and we've seen in in recent months you know whether it's libya or somewhere else the market the the energy market is very responsive to increases in tension so there's no question that that energy markets would spike with any potential prospect of military action against iran for some it's a u.s. challenge but it's also global challenge and how severely the u.s.

economic problems undermine its ability to protect its power globally well you you project power in support of your national and international interests which includes. the economy so so this is this is where it it's easy for someone who's running for president to say oh yeah let's let strike iran it's harder to then understand across the board will a military strike be successful. it's very difficult to see how a military strike it might retard an iranian nuclear program it is not likely to stop it. and you also will a military strike. would that. increase the tension and fisher are said to exist within iranian society between the regime. and the people who don't like the regime very much or it actually will drive you know the closer

together so you really have to look at this in a truly strategic way and that's why for the moment cooler heads recognize that the answer is political and economic pressure while leaving the military option there as an option but recognizing that that comes with very profound costs what are the prospects of the military i mean everyone recognizes the danger of iran going nuclear and it's not just about iran if iran crosses the threshold and gets a nuclear weapon how does that change calculations by a saudi arabia a turkey and egypt someone else do they. feel they have to have their own weapon you know everyone recognizes the last thing that you need in the region has a nuclear arms race you know the world is trying to save the world is trying to imagine happening in a way i mean we have other nuclear countries and we have israel that no one's

talking about it actually the movement is actually going in the opposite direction and we are not withstanding the emergence of a pakistani or a north korea you've got many many countries around the world who know how to build a weapon have chosen not to know that that is the optimal you know stabilizing situation so so the fact that iran feels that it has a right to pursue nuclear energy that he does have that right but it also has an obligation to show the international community that it's not pursuing a weapons program at the same time and iran is the only country within the n.p.t. the nonproliferation treaty that has failed to convince the international community that while it has a civilian program it is not also pursuing a weapons program for political reasons maybe let's move on do you think the u.s. is. diplomatically and economically to manage the consequences of the turmoil in

the arab states that's largely responsible for i don't think you can say that anyone today is managing what is a remarkable transition but these these transitions are evolving in very different ways you know country by country by country so do you think that the world should be concerned of the. islamic extremists coming to power in the so-called arab spring well i think that's that is a that is a longer term danger in the short term. these you know take take egypt for example there is an open process underway. a group of muslim brotherhood that have a long tradition within egypt and a pretty good political and social structure and those are going to is the heart of the world will likely do very well in the in the upcoming parliamentary elections. i think what's very important is people in the region have to be patient if people

become impatient and then become violent yes there are put is the potential that spoilers including a resurgence of al qaeda you know it is it's possible that that's the other remarkable thing about the region the al-qaeda has a non-factor thus far this year was remarkable in egypt this year and it took longer for al qaeda to produce a video message supporting the protests the protesters to overturn the mubarak government you know that's remarkable. so so we can be hopeful but clearly if things go wrong if new governments feel to deliver there is the prospect of trenchant very very very real possibility a lot of talk about a cried out being part of the. uprising the revolution or whatever you want to call it and libya will see i do think that libya has the ingredients to be

successful even under coffee it was a it was a society that was. modernizing sort of. the real question is can everyone come together and see that. and that's a given limited in the states a lot of that there have been elements there have been individuals and small groups associated with al qaida that have you know that are in libya or have emanated from libya there's a very definite libyan strain to al-qaeda. but but as an organized force i don't i don't necessarily see those but they're obviously in the magreb as they are could they try to take advantage of of a failure in the transition in libya absolutely put absolute called.

a similar at the san siro so the chargers finish top both sides have already come close. to me to come in the world we have qualified and we have the invasions. i to be the first and when because in barcelona something always happens it would always will and also this year we're going to compete to win something me so. it was an open much we had chances they had opportunities in the first half we had opportunities that could have been taken better than two of the match we were more self-confident and aware that in the champions league we are competitive. tackles defeated my say on the road one nailed reviving the great side chances of finishing second half assed well meanwhile have done to themselves place the round of sixteen at southgate still one how with. one of the top of their all the guys i think it's more than so despite the results. we were in

a different group and i'm very happy and pleased to see where we come from. when you do the news in the qualifiers. you couldn't. exactly what you would call a fool like we did overall i'm very happy because we came from a very difficult. period this is really trying hard but systematic movements were gone we just wait wildly and it's not us normally so therefore you kind of deserve to have was that's no played very very well especially offensively one process before most tonight was just unbelievable some players. finally in group a by leverkusen have gone totally far off to see one come back home victory against chelsea annihilated rockport some dank with the seven a loss of goals at home so did john once have nine points after thought ok enough for them to look a place in the last sixteen of the face of the second play place will be decided in

two weeks' time between chelsea and collector. you know we're going for. you want that's our responsibility and i don't want to look different. it took us a while now it's moscow claimed their second wave of the shall the rest of the day and add the russians have increased terabits a record to six games and to place in the or league's top sixteen. was the gaffer us. six time yearly champions to sky have their eyes stand on claiming back their crown at a disappointing last season and they won the christopher in top form with twice three wins while the visitors. at the top of group b. moreover the greens have managed only two wins against the army men over the last decade the game stayed very tight in the first quarter and just a boy and separated the teams as it ended however in the second test card took

possession and started seeing crews there couche and but the visitors bounced back quickly and came close to levelling matters their host missed their best player on day to day landing who had broken his nose in the domestic league last week it meant they were not as solid in defense as usual missing last week's most will it will clear all do you really known is there a key for the san juan we wish them a lot they were all shocked at how he would play career he's always against you like air force or i missed him a lot of difference in our after the big intermission to score found a reason and improve their play and no matter how the army man clean the fans in it dad and keep top form as he fired with both barrels striding ahead confidently with the result clear long before the end of the match case gave intially sealed a ninety five eighty two victory to make a report card. but you're not you know just play to me cold and tell me it's for the good we was playing back and now but i was sure good to look from the start but

we had a way. for sure. we missed getting a good look at. his the biggest star in the class played in the team and maybe it was with a bit strange playing bringing. twenty one points helps is going to become the first team to top sixteen to get into continually a one hundred percent run in europe meanwhile with four games to do in the group stage only brink of missing believes he's. over to the ice now where in the kontinental hockey league's an amerigo had defeated in the russian capsule by a single go straight to the. warehouse where a goal down until mythical which you've got to make wiser into the last twenty minutes. i regained the lead very soon for i was told to celebrate the victory in a row two one attempted. and ten is dead farah is through to the semi's of eight

sapir world finals in london that's after beating world number one of the coach in style they spent it claimed convincing six three six one victory farah now has two wins out of after beating and murray in his opening match which now has to become better now to observe it in his final group match on friday to a place in the last four. i always. wanted. to know our job is number one but there was a lot of time to go to. the rough and learn and now even with with with the number one again or so. nothing is you know this tournament is very very special for me. because we really want. summers but it kept his hopes alive in those days of world finals with a close victory of its upset if i say the match point to be decided before beating

the serbian opponent in a tie break to six six three seven six the final score there. now finally to something you don't see every day russian girl who can bench press a grown man extraordinary stuff and as i got screwed ports it's even more so when you consider it she's just twelve years old. while most children's bodies are not ready to lift heavy weights until they reach their teens bed is clearly not the case with marianna now one of the moscow region native not afraid to throw a few extra plates on her rack said in a world record among teens by lifting one and a half times her weight that despite her not even being a teenager no more can boast a personal best bench pressing effort of seventy five kilograms certainly proving looks can be deceiving incredible progress for someone who has just started doing that particular lift two years ago now live again hit the sixty kilogram mark until

december two thousand and ten when she did it became a world record amongst girls under fourteen and lifting sixty two point five kilos this past february also gave her legendary status in ukraine now will recognized as the youngest ever to live that much in the country aged eleven years seven months and twenty four days and it was only a matter of time before she could add more kilos to push off the chest the russian got to start doing aerobics as she was five years old which will be no surprise to anyone who has seen a warm up before setting a total of nine world records marianna smother alexander no stranger to pump and iron him self he emphasizes proper fundamentals and training regimes for star daughter the second generation powerlifting wonder has already started to inspire others eight year old elizabeth to meall of deciding to also take up weights after seeing now with
