no doubt. america is determined to prevent iran from getting a nuclear weapon and i will take no options off the table. however for many american jews and israeli supporters iraq obama's war of words against tehran doesn't go far no sign of the simply state i'm committed to israel security you have to promote policies that commit you to show that you're serious about his security israel through these actions feels that obama is not committed to doing everything this power to stop iran from having nuclear weapons iran is a in this an existential threat to israel and obama should be saying. so publicly that he will support israel in whatever military action they stay necessary more inclined is president of the zionist organization of america he says an unprecedented amount of american jews and israelis share his animosity a feeling arguably underscored by the israeli government according to published

reports tell of eve would only give washington twelve hours notice if deciding to strike iran i believe his policies are among the most hostile israel's ever experienced of any president in my lifetime recently it was the life of president obama being threatened in a column written by the owner of the atlanta jewish times in an article titled what would you do andrew adler listed the assassination of obama as one way to ensure israel's security he wrote in part give the go ahead for u.s. based massada agents to take out a president deemed unfriendly to israel in order for the current vice president to take his place and forcefully dictate that the united states' policy includes helping the jewish state obliterate its enemies i think that threat. or we are going to kill you either politically or literally i think that it.

serious threat. seriously the american president and money. congress. is the largest. group in the united states that kingmaker in. the american israel public affairs committee known as a pac declined our request for an interview meanwhile obama finds himself facing another election and a slew of republican opponents banging on much louder war drum against iran with regards to iran which perhaps represents the greatest exist central threat to israel we have to make it abundantly clear it is unacceptable and i take those that word carefully is unacceptable for iran to become a nuclear nation if rick santorum and when rick santorum is president iran will not get a nuclear weapon because the world as we know it will be no more clear i want to know i'm very close to that. i would have said publicly that i would rather plan

a joint operation conventionally than push the israelis to a point where the nuclear. at a time when the u.s. bears the burden of a broken economy growing social unrest and ongoing military conflicts starting a war with iran would not be in america's best interest but in order to keep a best friend many believe president obama will be forced to put israel's national security first. party new york. a view from tehran and growing western pressure and other issues coming up in less than ten minutes from now in our exclusive interview with the iranian interior minister and now as i promised a little earlier katie is here with the business update. hello there welcome to the business program a company as we've just been hearing first made putin has outlined the changes he things need to be made to the russian economy petion recognizes the need to

on demand on t.v.'s mine comes and r.s.s. feeds now in the palm of your. question on the dot com. good to have you with us if you just joined us this is all to you live here in moscow top stories now this international observers in syria kill time in the hotel awaiting further instruction from the arab league as this fighting continues around the capital meanwhile russia to host a. between the syrian government and the opposition with damascus already taking up the offer. the leaders meet in brussels for their first summit this year but the agenda is far from new with the debt still the center of discussion meetings taking place against the backdrop of protests and

a general strike in belgium. that could stop supplying all to some e.u. states in response to sanctions against its nuclear program which is currently undergoing a un inspection process by the iranian parliament suspending its debate on a complete ban of crude exports to the whole european union. well next iran braces itself to face the effect of fresh western imposed sanctions we talk now to its interior minister and ask how the current standstill is influencing affairs inside the country this is r.t. . the possibility of war between the united states and iran is being debated around the world that's what the mood is like inside the country to discuss that the endowed joined by iran's interior minister. lot larger it's possible thank you for your time mr stone is that they were talking several days after the e.u.

introduced oil sanctions against iran and i know the iranian leadership has responded by saying the sanctions would do move home to your advantage iran being here still since iran gets seventy percent of its revenues from oil do you have any fears about negative social reactions including strikes as people may lose their jobs do you take this somehow into account in your work or you. know these speculations aren't new to our country and our government or the power of the people all around ruling bodies or in power as a result of popular voting therefore our government and are all for it is a completely popular and our people have participated in all areas and spheres of our life from the very start of the revolution therefore as i've said there's nothing new about these talks which are actually quite outdated and irrelevant nonetheless they keep speculating on this matter of trying to stir up psychological warfare inside our country or in the countries of the region well probably among

people of their own countries that have enough of their own problems attempting to find someone else to blame for them we don't sell that much oil to your of illnesses and our european accounts don't have that much money. so you are stopping deal with to get this all stop the u.s. and the west as a how do not conceal that one of the main tasks of these sanctions is to get the oil prices for the iranian oil lower that's decreasing their revenues from the oil iran saudi is they want to we used to manipulate the political situation now. i think the way was that i believe they've made a big mistake as this action results in turbulence for the oil and energy markets this very fact it can result in oil price growth in these condition is the west should expect the drop in the euro rate and the euro market this new decision will result in further economic problems which as we can see have affected them already and so far they've been unable to find solutions with oil and energy markets will

experience instability and turmoil and this factor can boost prices for oil and energy products and jeopardize the market security but this is quite difficult for the markets which going by previous experience is used to consuming certain kinds of oil and energy and this also brings up technical and economic issues at the same time we're not worried for iran at all we've ensured our efficient planning in advance and with god's help we will continue moving forward but in the year the decisions taken today by the west unilaterally will result in the escalation of their own economic problems covering the story iran ians nav as the rankins with the aggressive and military rhetoric being built up by the west that they aren't as i've said these words and when you get these speculations have been going on for thirty years and there's no news in it to the iranian people the people of iran are in charge and they always participate in everything we don't sense any problems inside the country and if i may i would like to ask you about the recent killing of

a nuclear scientist there have been other similar cases and as far as we understand the investigation into it has not made great progress so far why have there been no substantial results and who might be behind these killings think. this is clear is day and they admitted mossad and the cia as well as some european security services don't like to see nations progress they would like to have control and a monopoly over everything is sort of the great a rainy a nation and follows the path of searched. for new technologies it wants to stand firmly on its feet by means of its own strengths and produce its own knowledge they disapprove of this progress and they don't want to see other nations develop themselves and the fact that they come over to such people's homes or attempt to murder an educated and broad minded university professor at highlights the grave nature of their situation that it demonstrates that the us and israel have

disgraced themselves in this matter how they speak of human rights and at the same time they officially perform terrorist attacks and promote state terrorism expansion. in their slogans we see their idle talk on fighting terrorism their deeds however do not match their words they brought their troops to afghanistan under the pretext of defending human rights and fighting terrorism and drug trafficking and the drug reps of increased forty fold since the americans got there and the number of casualties among innocent men women and children has increased significantly and so has the level of instability in the region that we actually witness terrorism development in the region with drug mafia and drug related revenues have grown as well and we see contradiction between their words and deeds . the scientists assassination will only make the iranian people stronger and more focused on their goal. you know people understand that they've chosen the right path the one of scientific progress the adversary doesn't want to see this happen

that it would cause harm to them physical annihilation of people in full daylight is a sign of the adversary's complete powerlessness and despair are an issue and yes i asked the i now that iran is having parliamentary elections in a month in many countries not only arab ones election may be used as a way to create provocations there are always some people unhappy with election results and this discontent me snowball i are concerned by this that a similar scenario man followed in iran. no thank god we've had twenty nine elections to date and this. election campaign will be of thirtieth election and it will take place in absolute peace and security like all the previous ones because our defense citizens in all the regions all the cities and villages will willingly come to polling stations and cast their votes to designate their delegates to parliament to serve the purposes of development and prosperity for our country. but there is that us there that's us and you know that r.t. has been comprehensively covering the situation in the arab countries as we have

covered the wars in libya and syria we often heard complaints from the leadership that the intelligence services of other countries have stepped up their operations on the territories of the countries concerned in the past year the way many are ledged imaginaries in syria and libya who could see with our own eyes that some people were apparently not libyans but fought on the side of the rebels can you see any increase in the operations of intelligence services from other countries or any attempts to penetrate your territory at least in recent years since the latest events in the arab countries began. you see foreign powers and other enemies are at work everywhere they might also be present in our country but we do not feel we should worry about this of course we should look out for superpowers and our enemies attempting to interfere in the home affairs of arabic countries especially in syria and in all countries where the people are in charge of running their

nations they must keep track of such attempts or i don't know of other ways years worth of work until it's been about a year since the arab spring began a first even the iranian leadership hailed the movement in egypt in libya as expressing democratic sentiments but now this one here is past the attitude towards the events around your country has changed do you still believe those are people are driven by their own democratic ideas or do you see hundred other countries in the events of the arab spring. we support any popular movement as long as people's demands are legitimate and the imperialistic regime of world supremacies is obviously trying to lead people away from the right path and neutralize the popular movement or transform it in favor of their own interests but it will have to get a pure straightforward all righteous path that people have been following you know what countries of the region however is stipulated by their willingness to defend their. right which is a legitimate demand from iran's viewpoint but that is the biggest can one say that

the instability in the region has considerably increased the narcotic drugs trafficking. in and out on yes afghanistan is certainly the focus of narcotic plantations now the americans and europeans are there and since they came narcotic drugs production has increased forty four old and it's a financial source for most terrorists who infringe the security of central asian states the states of the region and russia itself it's a threat not only for iran but for the region at large and russia but if russia fails to keep an eye on what's going on next to its borders and around the country this threat will most probably become a serious problem for russia itself it's a fact that both iran and russia host the main drug trafficking route where at the beginning of it because the drugs first penetrate our country and then follow to turkey and then to europe and then on the other hand russia is also on the route that it's northern and because the drugs penetrate russia through central asia and

then go to europe we suffer serious losses on this route more than three thousand seven hundred lives have been lost in the attempt to resolve this issue and given we as humans are convinced we have to go on with this ruthless battle so as to save our people and despite the fact that the world community does not lend us necessary assistance in this cause we're alone to bear most financial costs and human losses in order to continue the struggle shut down the borders and blockade the territory inside the country in order to prevent the trafficking so it seems iran and russia will have to take responsibility for the problem themselves that they've been in when was the one of our best i was just the pairing for this interview several colleagues approached me at r.t. asking if there was going to be a war between iran and the usa who said you were on fire. as well as well let me say this again all those fabrications are not new. to us the islamic republic of iran is a strong power capable of defending its regional security fully vetted with the

iranian people being a great and powerful nation not afraid of those futile threats that. wealthy british style. is not on the tight.
