12:02 pm
a load and with explosives struck the residential pilot inside baghdad and a feast 7 cigars were injured in that attack. immediately following that, the prime minister took to his feet in which he urged from a screen and calm. he then appeared on state television in which he reassured iraqi population. cowardly rockets had dried attacks, don't build homelands and build a future. we work towards building a countries to respect to the states and its institutions and building a better future for all iraqis. we call again for carbon constructive dialogue for iraq and the feature of iraq as a heck no one has came to sponsibility for the attempted assassination. we haven't heard from him any armed leaders who are affiliated with iran fact militias and they have been protesting. the results of the general parliamentary election was held on the 10th of last month in which they had
12:03 pm
a very push showing. the supporters have taken to the states to demonstrate and this past friday, those demonstrations turned violent where the petition started pelting the police walks in stone, and the police responded with tear gas and scan grenade. at least one person was killed in those tests. ah, with some of the need is the most powerful militia factions had come forward an open. he blamed the prime minister for the way he handled these caches the representatives and spokesperson for a broad coalition of po iranian she at court. he has suggested that this attempted assassination attack is actually
12:04 pm
a false flag by the minister to try and desert attention away from the way his government handled those protests. the prime minister has ordered a clothes into the caches, and at the same time, he has also to compensation to the victims. now we have started receiving international reaction to the attempt assassination this morning. we have heard from some kenny who is the secretary of the red national security council and he has content the attack saying that it can be traced back to foreign interference. he says that foreign is not to be blamed for insecurity discord and instability in the country. that has seen for a news of support, both terrorist organization and the occupation of iraq. at the same time, the united states has weighed in, they condemned the incident. they also offered assistance in the investigation. the use of course, is busy with bullying. excuse me,
12:05 pm
one. and has the deadline by the end of this year by which to finish doing this, we are following the reported drone attack. this apparent act of terrorism which were strongly condemn, was directed to the heart of the rock estate. our commitment to our iraqi partners is unshakable. the united states senate with the government and people of iraq, kristen colton, that he's come to that particular the now and mid the he with feet withdrawal. and that is why washington is watching events so carefully. the united states was among the 1st countries to praise the results of last month election. so of course, they will be particularly concerned and how things are developing there. okay, i can speak now to jamal. what came? he's a professor of history and international relations. the lebanese university in beirut . very good evening tea. good. do we have anyone you would say is a likely suspects for this drone bowman. what i believe that there are 2
12:06 pm
possibilities for this bumping 1st could be a false flag like the transmitter on behalf of some gay groups to be taken by the prime minister as a justification correct on demonstrations. but this could also be a message by some students to last the parliamentary elections, to the prime minister, who is open, be supported by the united states who came to power and to kind of the way it happened and in love. and so the scholar meant my troubles in iraq and the united states to make it like
12:07 pm
a leading site for iran. also it's flat and ukraine to make ukraine a bleeding site for russia to be able to decide for you. so this is the global american, this was why the americans manipulated the elections. influential groups be marginalized and the latest elections. so based on this context, we have 2 possibilities. either it's a message by these groups to the prime minister, or it could be a post flag by the prime minister in order to use it to divert attention away from the government, correct down on the demonstrations and use this to to for further crack down on the demonstration, when we see the recent days violent process on the streets of the capital. now we see an assassination attempt on the prime minister. i mean, just how high is the level of instability in the country now?
12:08 pm
well, i believe it's highly unstable. it might be heading towards a civil war because the united states, it falls within the object of the united states, because the united states decide that it was the company or it will leave the country so that it will be burning that hands without the fire. that's going to be america said to do his troops from the rank by the end of the year. it's not going to work in the situation. it could we be looking at another, i've got this done well, i believe that the americans are pulling up from a gun to stand some other places in the middle east, but they don't want the regions to fall into the hands of their,
12:09 pm
your asian opponents, may namely, china, russia and iran, and that's why they are leaving these regions in both of us so that they would be like burning battles. that's set up a certain point in china and in the north west of china and central asia that could affect the nation that she could show in the effect. the stability in we saw an afghan is done isis, kate rearing. there had always chasing the americans out of the country towards the end. could you see, i says prospering equally in iraq? well, i believe that i says has always been complimentary to american political directives and objectives. so whatever the american brain
12:10 pm
received, they get substituted by isis. so i don't believe that isis is fighting against the united states, but they have always served as a pretext for united states to intervene in certain countries including iraq, afghanistan, as well as the region. so i believe that isis was. busy made public cases by us intelligence who the political objectives of the united states as part of the new types of warfare that is waged by the united states, which is locally different from the traditional office. when the u. s. does withdraw, does that leave the door open for iran to gain stronger relations with the rack? when the should have been the case has been in a stable situation. however,
12:11 pm
when it goes into full chaos, then it will be as social trouble for iran, and it will lead drain all the efforts and resources of iran in relation. that's the way the americans use your brain in order to drain off the russians. because your brain has become a bleeding site for russia, and by the way, they are doing the same and 11, and i believe that we are going down the same path and the next few months, professor, i really appreciate your time. i guess the sal jamal came professor of history and international relations at lebanese university in beirut. now until the news and thousands of protesters have gathered in the german city of leipzig, the weekends this was to oppose the government's latest coven restrictions. scuffles broke out as police moved in to try to disperse the crowd and several people were injured. only 20 protesters were arrested. record infection numbers are

12:13 pm
do not make for good reading as the feed 4th wave is very much whistles. if we do not acts this 4th wave will again bring a great deal of suffering. many people will fall seriously ill and die, and the health services will be under extreme pressure again. around 67 percent of the german population is fully vaccinated, but the numbers coming forward has plateaued in recent months. fronting politicians to fear that a new type of pandemic could be upon us. we are currently experiencing a pandemic of the unvaccinated, which is massive. there would be fewer karone of ours patients on intensive care units. if more people would let themselves be vaccinated. the big worry now is that those people who haven't gone for a vaccination have no intention of doing so. and that may well lead to more restrictions on what people who haven't been jobs can do. if the pandemic situation in hospitals worsens than further restrictions for unvaccinated people are possible
12:14 pm

12:16 pm
and health care professionals all agree that something has to be done and are bracing for things to potentially get worse over the coming winter months. peter oliver artie. berlin that is in canada. have ruled that a comedian. he joked about a disabled teenage sing and did not breach the youngsters write to dignity. comic mike ward hailed the decision by the supreme court, his part of a growing backlash against cancelled culture. i like o j i one. this is unless i'm so happy i think this is a good sign for comedy. i think this means the pendulum is about to swing the other way. medians are going to be able to keep on doing jokes. i would want to tell him about how i fell when i 1st heard that the child as a 13 years old to just think about gang because
12:17 pm
a 40 year old man say so that you should die or singer, jeremy gabriel, who's now $24.00 was born with a congenital disorder, the causes abnormalities of the sco they found fame in 2006 and even performed for poke benedict. some years later, mike ward began mentioning gabriel's disabilities in his performances and defended his act by saying people shouldn't be afraid to joke about any subject. gabriel's family father, human rise, complaint, but candidates. high school said the singer was targeting not because of his disability, but because of his fame and wellness, the ward receive support from the comedy willed others still believe such jokes must face consequences at a lively conversation about this. aaron knotty with a panel of guests. you know, i, i agree with the courts conclusion. i mean that they acknowledge said that this was a nasty thing that was said, but you know, it doesn't go as far as to, you know, have
12:18 pm
a legal financial consequences for this person. when mister word comes to your town, you have the option to not buy a ticket. you can ignore his podcast. you have the right to do all those things. but should he be prosecuted in a court of law? that takes it a bridge way too far. in my opinion, we have to sink about. he was a child, he was 13 years old. and i truly believe we should safeguard our children more because especially in this case he was not only a child, but he was and he still is disable. so you know, the must be a star between hatred and comedy between violence, you know, and free speech. god to charge in and find a guy tens of thousands of dollars for a joke, comedy and joking. and freedom of speech is a human right. when did this change? this is nuts to me. and you know, i have to disagree with the, the woman who spoke before, but this,
12:19 pm
he was not making fun of his disability. he was primarily making fun of people who thought the kid was so weak that you couldn't comment and make fun of his singing is still alive. he the only thing that's wrong with it looks a little different. and he, you know, he has to wear a hearing aid. we shouldn't be treating people like so differently. i mean, have some respect for the guy. he's not some weekly that you need to defend. like is, 1st of all, he was violence 3rd, but violence towards a child that was 13 years old and disabled child. i don't care if it was an address in his disability. he wants suicide. a lot of that and you can be free to say whatever you want him be buying renting every way you want in that and you know in your job because i'm an interpreter if tomorrow i treat my disable, you know, employee like that, i would go to court, because doubt consequences for every one of us, though what we do in our life, okay, it's not only speech is an action,
12:20 pm
no one saying there should be consequences. but the argument is, the consequence should not be you being by tens of thousands of dollars and not be a lot of centrally not allowed to criticize someone. well, i just want to say this in response to that, a lot of comedians and, and i would like to think i'm one of them. it is possible for us to have 2 thoughts in our head at the same time. thought number one, that's a joke that a lot of us would never make. i personally would never make a joke like that. that's me. ah, but another thought that i am also able to have in my head at the same time is i can see the dangerous slippery slope of having legal consequences for someone who chooses to make such a joke. even if i find it incredibly poor taste. and you know, free speech is just her virtue that i think is very important. and without it, i certainly wouldn't have a job still to come after claim self, a high level cover of kenya reopens a decade. oh probe into the merge of
12:21 pm
a young mother allegedly at the hands of a british soldier, that's on the way shoulder and pulled her ah, ah, ah ah ah, ah, i
12:22 pm
know. ah ah, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk ah, welcome back, hit maybe a global attempt to save the world from climate change, but the huge cop 26 summit in scotland is not impressing greater timber. the swedish activist lashed out at the event while addressing crowds at the fridays for future marching glasgow. it is not a secret that comp $26.00 is a failure. it should be obvious that we cannot solve
12:23 pm
a crisis with the same methods that goes into it in the 1st place or protest. events have also been held around the world to coincide with cop $26.00 with demonstrate is echoing grocer, timbers, call for concrete action from those empower ah ah, with with one of the got $26.00 conferences into its 2nd week. now kicking off the event, the british prime minister warned of
12:24 pm
a doomsday scenario. while the american president found that the u. s. would lead by example, in the fight against climate change. one of the was biggest polluters, india, and i say net 0 target by 2070. although that's 2 decades later than many had been hoping all the recalls for more money to be handed to developing countries to help with their transition to other energy sources. and on that issue, anti saskia tail has been looking at how complying with emissions goals may not be that simple for nations heavily dependent on fossil fuels. hope $26.00 his hair and it is going to save us from doomsday. i've a 100 wild need, is a setting out that goals for the future and that big ones, stop deforestation switched to renewables. 0 emissions and ohio electric in us of teaching nature like a toilet we are digging our own grapes. humanity has long since run down
12:25 pm
the clock on climate change. it's one minute to midnight on that doomsday, and we need to act. non client change is already ravaged oral. we only have a referral for us to raise your, our vision to raised me to task. sounds great. the question is, who pay the biggest price for all these politicians patches? it's easy for both chad and co promised to turn off the light when they leave a room. but for others halfway around the world, saying no to fossil fuels is a luxury. they just can't afford. if there is call we leave. if there isn't any call, we don't leave one person and east in india setup, but over 4000000, all those all over the country would likely agree. because that's how many people rely on coal to keep a roof over their heads and food on that pates. the issue goes well beyond india,
12:26 pm
though, the developing large a industrialization stage, then you know what we call one space. our time. we don't that they will not be able to lift their societies out of poverty, coal consumption and coal as a basis for the livelihood will remain a fact for some time. in fact, tens of developing countries have come together terrified of what the grand goals of 0 emissions made up by rich nations will mean for them. this new goal, which has been advanced, runs counter to the parish agreement, and is until i equity and against climate justice demands for net 0 emissions. for all countries by 2050 will exacerbate further the existing inequities between developed and developing countries. it's not just the developing nations struggle as it is with fossil fuels. it's not just that millions of jobs will be lost so that millions will be punched into poverty. now it's also that these nations are
12:27 pm
asking, why are we paying for greedy gonzalez? far away? the top 10 percent of countries consume 20 times more energy than the bottom 10 percent, and 1100000000 sub saharan african share the same amount of power generation capacity. as germany's 83000000 people, video gamers and california consume more electricity than entire nations. you won't hear anything about that a call 20 sex. and remember when times were tough, winter was coming, a gas was running low in europe. funny how no one was shouting about being a doughty source of energy when they begged for the taps to be turned back on. but you will hear them say they won't finance fossil fuel projects in developing countries. why? because it's far away and won't affect whether that warm on a chilly december night. though if the budget can stretch, they might lend a helping hand to ease the pay. we want to do more to help countries around the world, especially developing countries, accelerate their clean energy transition,
12:28 pm
address pollution, and ensure the world we all must share. a cleaner, safer health is planet. we have an obligation to help make no mistake. this is not a judgment on green energy. the goals of those gathered in glasgow are undoubtedly noble. but do the politicians so desperate to be seen as the leaders who saved the pallet realize what that p off from the slogans actually mean for millions of people far away. and even if they did what they do, anything differently. there's some countries that actually have small populations but are consuming a lot of energy and everything. a lot of are capita carbon. people can see all around in most of the rich countries. it's not clear that they're really going to be themselves of it from coal. and i don't think that maybe realistic target will not make the 2015 batteries accord target yet. so i think there's a lot of bluffing going on here. and i don't believe a lot of the, you know,
12:29 pm
