7:03 am
move and was unquestioned be sponsored by iran it's not in the range of yemen's capabilities if it was them who conducted the attack this is one of the missiles we have recovered and we have information that leads us to the source that these kind of components were made in iran. so what they found is the weapons were allegedly made with components they were fired from the north the direction of iran and its neighbors so cutting to the chase it was iran that's what you're going to say right . the rain regime and the i.r.g.c. are trying to hide any evidence of the components and the technology i'm sure we will spoke to launch site we are working and whoever is responsible about it will take the accountability not once during the presentation that the saudis

7:05 am
defense ministries press secretary is a catastrophe for saudi arabia they've shown they cannot prove or know exactly where the cruise missiles and drones were made from exactly with that attack was launched or why a defense systems could not prevent that tank the only thing that might be iranian related is that maybe some of the equipment some of the technology that the who these have might have been incorporated into the attack but why why or why is anyone complaining especially the saudis since the u.s. has been providing the bombs and the aircraft to the saudis to bomb yemen for 4 years so the who with these are just responding back then again to those saying it's iran because there are alleged iranian components in the day bri doesn't that mean that the u.s. is responsible for horrific massacre in yemen i mean sure saudi arabia dropped the
7:06 am

7:08 am
. middle regime protects the drug gangs so they're trying to divert attention the real question is how they go to hold of that picture thousands of people get the food to stay can with me and the images get passed around to and what's not so who was it that sense of what's a picture to the leader of the socialist party. in the u.s. state department also says that it is no big deal wedo still receives full u.s. backing but when it comes to hugo chavez the story is a big deal never mind that it's more than a decade old in that hugo chavez is long dead they say that he tried to flood the united states with cocaine and in spain they wanted the head of military intelligence in venezuela extradited but the judge in the case isn't buying it. i couldn't have hoped for anything different i'm innocent they have always made false accusations against me the truth is i'm very happy with what has happens in this
