the rebels tactics are beyond the pale. the rebels saying that they are attacking civilian airports now is just one more step in revealing their actual terrorists nature because it's against every law in the world to attack civilian airports for whatsoever reasons i'm actually surprised they are still enjoying their support when the international community sees there will slaughtering people civilian people in the street and throwing them from the roof and still support them this gives the wrong message to the rebels that whatever they do they will still enjoy this twisted support at the moment the free syrian army is not heavily armed well enough to win any battle against the syrian army at the syrian army just like what has been happening in the past months but it is definitely have really aren't enough to harm civilians and to endanger the lives of many syrian people any foreign military intervention in syria would spell total disaster for the peace effort in the country that is according to u.n.

10:08 pm
a showcase for people who've overcome medicine abilities and achieved something amazing but hanging over this event is a shadow cast by may just toss it's the firm the government's paying to assess disabled people's ability to work but it's blamed for humiliating the vulnerable and forcing people off benefits as part of the country. they are making money out of other people's misery quite literally the old many of them sponsoring the paralympics is i think it's really lost on them and he seems to divide people into the deserving to save and the un to serving tony bradstock went through an at or sest moment which resulted in him losing his entire income for six months he says he was made to feel like a criminal and the process resulted in him attempting suicide that. was going to work and. it's

10:10 pm

the u.s. and israel are left embarrassed as more than one hundred nations support iran's atomic program as experts believe the country needs it as a repellant against international military aggression. also echoes of the war in the black sea munitions dumped in the water seven years ago are still threatening parts. tens of thousands of protesters have occupied of the main highway leading to bahrain's capital manama to demand greater freedoms and a democratic government the demonstrators held up banners and flags urging the release of the jailed dissidents including human rights activists. the shia majority state which is ruled by a western backed sunni dynasty has been hit by an arrest and protests for over eighteen months the u.s. has been supporting bahrain's regime with its fifth fleet based in the country. and former political studies professor at the university of bahrain believes it's. getting difficult for washington to maintain its influence in the country. the
10:12 pm
united states wants to retain its edge amount of control not only a little bahrain but over the entire persian gulf monarchies in the entire middle east in order to keep that crude oil flowing however they realize that with increasing democratic opposition in all these countries that they can no longer rely on these autocratic dictators to maintain control and this is particularly true in bahrain where the population three quarters of the population are out on the streets on a regular basis telling their government to leave saying we are no longer in support of monarchy we don't respect you and we don't fear you anymore so what the u.s. is doing with president barack obama is to replace these autocratic despot we started with the north african regime egypt mubarak was removed in egypt we've been

a legal. regime in yemen go and so now if iraq obama is reelected and november sweeps of this year then he will complete edge i'm on a transition lead regime more than one hundred nations have unanimously supported iran's nuclear program as long as it's used for peaceful purposes after the nonaligned movement wrapped up in tehran amounts to a resoundingly slap in the face for the u.s. and israel who have been trying to downplay the role of the gathering the latest i.a.e.a. report issued during the summit claimed iran has doubled its nuclear capacity find stalling a new iranian enrichment centrifuges project in the document saying it was all politically motivated geo political analyst eric draitser thinks the i.a.e.a. has never been an impartial body. the iranians do it partially for self preservation they also do it for propaganda purposes and to lend themselves clout
10:14 pm
on the world stage they have the inherent right according to the nuclear nonproliferation treaty that they have the right to have a nuclear program so long as it's for peaceful purposes as is now accepted international law so i think that's the first one the second one of course is the geo political reality that they look around them you look at the map and they see that they are surrounded literally on all sides by the united states or various allies of the united states and the principle is quite clear that the united states will invade nations that do not have the threat of nuclear weapons and the united states does not invade the nations that do have that threat. a in many ways is part of what the leader in iran called the overt dictatorship of the united nations that is to say that the i.a.e.a. is always led by us produced think tank individuals like l. barra die or his predecessors who will inevitably execute the agenda of the western powers regardless of whether that contravenes international law cited mohammad

marandi a professor at the university of tehran says iran would have never launched a nuclear program but for international pressure. the iranians are saying that this report came at a sensitive time to sort of distract attention away from this iranian success the nonaligned movement. conference in tehran has been highly successful. iran being isolated the united states has become isolated since it opposed senior figures going to tehran and many major world leaders have come to the country in addition the president. seems iran which is a political earthquake the iranians are producing uranium. enrichment at twenty percent or so if he's in iran which then produce medical isotopes the fact that the united states and the europeans tried to prevent iran from
10:16 pm
obtaining that fuel in the past met that meant that they were taking iranian cancer patients off base the irony here is that the iranians as a beginning had no intention whatsoever to produce uranium at twenty percent and then produce nuclear fuel but americans and the europeans by taking iraq citizens and. people hostage for sea iranians to take that politicians senior politicians really know that an attack on iran would be devastating for the united states and not only for its economy but for its global position and its credibility the washington seems reluctant to endorse a strike on iran israel is getting all geared up for it people in tel aviv have been practicing emergency drills which simulated missile attacks and as artie's policy or reports war preparations have also moved to the ideological arena as well . this fifteen page emergency brochure is being distributed by the israeli army across the country and it puts iran the
