video. look at the top stories doing the dumas election fever strikes as russians packing into a polling booth to decide who makes it to parliament. the war of words between iran and the west turns into an inferno as washington and the e.u. infuriated by i'm phase reaction to. the un human rights commission calls for an international intervention in syria the sanctions continue to pile up in damascus over alleged civilian abuses by forces loyal to president bashar. islamic party to win

a first post revolution election. in the streets as many believe their voices are not heard. us pakistani relations are under the microscope next as r.t. talks to pakistan's former head of intelligence. to stay with us for that. i don't let them with the nato forces attacks residential districts of pakistan's tribal areas servicemen were killed others wounded how will this incident impact the pakistan u.s. relations and how will pakistan respond to it. retired pakistani army general who served as the director general of the interest services intelligence is talking to us about the aftermath of the incident in your opinion what are the consequences of this incident can we say that pakistan has already responded in full or should we

expect further actions from it while there are very bad at the moment and i think that is the public. this is only going to get. to the right wing you know the magic of they're trying to manipulate in bugs found that the political direction in the future after the draw should be more to the left and more toward the liberal kind of dispensation but i think inevitably it is going to drift more to that i take giving. us off for most favored nation to india had already created a situation where the right wingers were very annoyed and. we are going to have a very big. december and we will see how the nation respond what i am getting i think it is going to be very good that's one earthquake that americans want to withdraw they have already declared thirty thousand troops

out this year thirty first of december and more to go out and finally on when. they're now trying to. prove one gone through this tumble conference in the morning is an extension of with them will that somehow india should. winstrol as a pop proxy power in afghanistan now that is not going to be acceptable it is not going to work and at this juncture if they have come and struck pakistan that means they do not wish to somebody in america doesn't wish the president of america to announce withdrawal it means that it's actually a fallout of the conflict which is going on between the white house and the pentagon on one side and neo-cons and. and the indian lobbyist israeli lobbyist all of them are aligned with the. pentagon so

obviously it's as much an attack on pakistan as it is on obama's policies because i was expecting that immediately after the born after they've been giving for given some kind of face saving obama would come up with his announcement much expected because american public opinion is now turned against the saudis and eighty six percent was of the democratic which is the most part of their vote which could go on. if we're bomber is to get some political benefit out of it he must get bulk of his troops out of understand before he goes to the polls in november of next year so that is how the calculation is being done and sixty seven percent voters of the republicans which is a position they also want a quick withdrawal but somebody there does not want quick withdrawal there's a real don't want israelis don't want because israel you want iran to which is tied

in pakistan's nuclear program and nuclear assets to be brought in the watchful eyes of the western countries to whoever so there is a big big tussle which is going on but add to this the other forces which do not want the withdrawal to take place and they are the security contractors. one hundred thousand plus security context and understand narcotic trade is going on at every huge volume ninety two percent of the world's requirement of our opium is being catered to by the by the of one production and then there is the military establishment which know that as soon as obama pulled out troops he is going to cut the military budget so there are multiple complex factors which are affecting the american policy basically it is a confusion as a result of the confusion which exist because of in my opinion as

a professional soldier because. war is nothing much. line of late if the line of supplies i'm not in will control all of the narc passing through friendly areas then you are doomed that simple lesson we learned from the annals of military history. for americans have shot themselves in the book they are lying when they say there we can create an alternative from illegal through rashard because it is planned all because pan and down to understand. and i would not recommend that these countries would get into this fray because if they do then the followed will be on them and you know this is the irregular war that it can travel across the borders so it would be best for them not to get involved into this the arab world is up in arms and the. various other libya is not

yet fully we have still to see which way the winds blow in libya we have the syrian issue we have many of that issue so i don't think it's a really realistic to think that they are they can open another front against pakistan pakistan is not an ordinary country it's not iraq it's part of understand why it is fun can resist and then whole region will be turned into an inferno it will light a fire which they will not be able to control so i don't think it is possible for them to do think of that pakistan has now announced it is cutting off supply routes and demanding that the us vacates the shamsi air base with the international forces continue its operation to twenty full team do you believe the americans will attack pakistan's tribal areas again passion in the future about wali pakistan hold of a pan pakistan has told them go away from something with that with pakistan is what you told them that whatever understanding secretly existed between us that is now out and if pakistan does not cooperate. drone attacks cannot go on they maybe just

one or two but the scale at which they are taking place now it is not possible to maintain that again so pakistan has now all the advantages not to put conditions number one india will not be in a stroller the proxy power because that will create and i'm warning this for the russians and for the regional countries if india gets a place larger than life in afghanistan you have another state of israel in there and it will create problems for the whole region probably iran for. translation countries for pakistan and particularly for china so this is going to be a lot of problems ok now that is one what pakistan must said by assad must say that there will be an even handed policy between us secondly pakistan must not insist pakistan must open of course goldenbridge must be left open if they want to

withdraw it is good for pakistan the sooner they go the better for pakistan and for everybody else also in the region except india and except israel now if they agree that we should be given the same skater's nuclear status as india it will lead to more demand because that says ford always hanging on pakistan's nuclear. and we should say we have we had a declared deal killer power you have to accept our position put us in the nuclear club along with you and other countries this is another condition third condition that we should put to them is that please tell india that if they want a most favored nation state of whatever it is they must certainly kashmir issue according to the will of people it's human rights issue it is the right of a nation and they are simply ignoring it because america is not interested in settlement of kashmir issue and finally we should say. that your embassy

here is not it's a wartime embassy within our you're fighting war against and you have maintained your troops inside your embassy you have built barracks of the police now cut it down to only diplomatic level like any other country like for instance russia now the future problem with our problems are because of american presence and of our part we must say that as quickly as possible you should go we will help you we will open the route for you but on certain conditions on condition so we have in a new eminently good position today there would be a lot of people i was just having another one. that will be isolated this is this is diabolical non-sense. nobody can be isolated because if it is the it is neighbor with your life elected in afghanistan today it is not but it is fun with you like i don't know what they're talking about so we should not be afraid of heights

solution russia has come up with a very good friendly gesture that they are prepared to give us five billion million dollars of five hundred million dollars for. america has never done any such thing for us america never to get one of the things that back to back it in fact they block our with so that we have identification friend in for it is jayanagar shah competition with other countries of. leaving india out unless india wants to come on board if they want a government well and good but they have to settle first and then only they can come in so i think we have a very good position at the moment i think it i look at it very positively and americans will have to you because they have only supplies of fifteen days at the most in afghanistan today and if we can hold our breath i mean fed for fifteen days they will come begging to you and they will say that please we are prepared to give

consent to maybe all concession they don't get but many of these concessions we can expect from them today. as russians pick for parliament who are the main contenders in the race for. the party's ever present. by far russia's most boisterous and controversial bully politician current campaign slogan. are for russia its priorities. housing transport and science think its success. in all ski poles third in russia's first. residential election critics cry over racist remarks personal violence populist slogans no no fault for putting them a bridge and says poison dolly's underleaf unico on the party list and ensuring his

after losing both opening singles matches they won saturday's doubles to keep the tie on life david nalbandian and it was i shrank with the vital victory against baines for the channel and fernando verdasco winning in three sets pretty comfortably in seville after taking the first set six four they went on to take the next six to the final one six three match point coming after just two hours on court forcing the tie into the final day with spain need to win just one of the reverse singles matches they are likely to see now banned replaced by martin del potro in the match with ruff on the dow lost spain's david for their shape to play in monaco. house where tiger woods is let slip his lead at the chevron world challenge and goes into the final round in california a shot behind sac johnson woods had started the third day as the one to catch but he had an up and then start and although we chipped in for one of these here on the

first nine holes he also had three bogeys johnson meanwhile was behind woods on the sixteenth and seventeenth and then produced this on the last hole in his eye for an eagle to take a one shot lead into the final day k.j. choi is three shots back. now with the lockout in the n.b.a. effectively over basketball stars are returning to north america from europe where they've been prying their trade during the dispute to skip moscow's on going to kill and guest says he's yet to make up his mind about whether he'll return to the states after a spell in the russian capital but compare it to my famous golf has already decided to head back to denver and said farewell to fans of his home team think at the weekend from across the rest as more. europe's arguably best number five player hume case center team of famous golf he's only the seventh russian to play in the national basketball association he signed a three year deal with the new york knicks in twentieth's and but was then traded to the denver nuggets where he still under contract must go over third to keep kids

hearing the lockout in the n.b.a. but he always knew that as soon as the standoff was over he would be on the one of the first planes back to the united states europe through photos i've shown here in russia what i've learnt in america or tournament on the n.b.a. are two different leagues if you get to see at least one n.b.a. match then you know right away that it's wrong to compare to twenty thing else. at twenty five years old team of fate had already become a living legend in russia and the moscow region in particular despite knowing that his services are required in the n.b.a. asap most golf didn't hold back in his final match for him keep picking up sixteen points for rebounds four assists and two blocked shots it's earned in an impressive performance to ensure his side maintains a one hundred percent record in this season's united d.t.b. league. so. with but for can do

a little with itself was just tell them all of the. small kids what they're telling old school kids. here i think is with the stuff that's in the future just because it's mostly the loss of holiday so here because this is what i told you that the. team of famous golf took part in his seven matches for denver this year but has still not had a chance to display his full potential on the court as he has not been in the starting line up yet however he has been more prominent during his time with the new york knicks averaging thirteen point five minutes per game in his thirty four appearances so if all goes well with his current club we could possibly see the censored. in different colors when his contract expires we can talk about him a bit. and have you know where you will be a free agent i'm absolutely sure that there will be a lot of the ways you love him and i mean you sure that needs no one to receive him

back because he did a good job and needs some of you the fans of nieces he said that are not there now the former thinking number twenty five is dedicated to his new club the n.b.a.'s denver nuggets same in close touch during the lockout his mind is now probably already in colorado where it's hoped he'll reach new heights and make his family friends and country proud and must go knows what to do in order to approach the sixty six and be a season in top shape you know where you start training a soon as i arrive in denver it's pretty important to get a climatized quickly especially in turn over because it's the highest city in american basketball and it's harder to breathe if you're not used to such altitude so the first week will be tough that's for everything else well i'm returning to my old home and hopefully my old life to timothy gulf will not be all alone in denver as his wife is taking the transatlantic trip with him because our friends in denver are already waiting for us where settled there so when we arrive i'll probably be

resting for a few days and getting used to the time difference after spending five months here in russia do you still look out in the n.b.a. russian star center to see what they must go is making his way back to the north american league the twenty five year old will certainly be the missed here at home but it's highly unlikely that anyone will hold a grudge against him for representing russia in the world's top basketball league remonde coffer of artsy moscow region. on the ice up to second in the western conference offer to one when i was ready to see started bottom i found have beaten resists in all of the three meetings this season but i have to come from behind to make it four and a full. of course he's keep putting vetus ahead after quarter of an hour but in the middle of the second timothy i just kind of leveled the score and over time looked to be on the cards but with just four minutes to go after lance constantine danka popped up with the winner i. am len with winter sports limping champion lindsey
