the saudi arabian president signed a proposal drafted by neighbors which calls for a power transfer to the vice president in 30 days and early presidential elections within 90 days. within a week of growing uncertainty throughout the arab world, few countries are being watched more closely than syria. according to activists, government security forces killed at least six people, but despite the increased sustained violence and pressure to step down, what more can the opposition do? the former ambassador to morocco recently met with opponents, and he started by describing what he heard on his trip. >> we believe at this point syria has reached a tipping point. throughout months of turmoil, there was an uncertainty of how much the regime would be able to survive. the leaders are of the view that his days are numbered, because they believe that between the defections with the military and their growing support with the turkish government is more increasingly likely the regime will find it almost impossible to maintain equilibrium it has maintained. >> we gets a little out of syria, becaus

we have a system spinning in the arabian sea off the coast of oman. it is a tropical storm, but the problem is, over the last couple of hours, we've seen a bit of weakening, but it's still been producing heavy rainfall in addition to strong winds. it's going to continue to sit and spin as we go through the next couple of days. as i show you on the graphic, just barely a tropical storm. winds at 65 kph. as i put this into motion, it's not going to be moving very much over the next several days. 72 hours out, you can see right near central yemen off coast. so anywhere along this path, we're going to be dealing with the heavier precipitation. the problem is, a very arid, dry climate. and that is going to lead to problems with flooding. and we've already been getting those reports in. and this model right here just kind of giving you the idea of the potential track of this tropical cyclone. and notice it's really going to hug that coastline as we go through the next couple days. this is going to be our problem spot. in some locations they've already picke

what we've seen so far iran i mean could retaliate in conventional terms that could attack saudi arabian oil fields if you really want to see a crisis in the air in the international economy despite tough rhetoric coming from both israel and the u.s. many agree that washington and tel aviv are most likely to use the report as political leverage to try and isolate iran and possibly to put a dandy needs flourishing economic relations with china no one in the international community wants iran to have nuclear weapons but what they fear is a drastic unilateral action by israel with the backing of the united states that could set the region on fire at a time when it is as on stable as it gets millions of lives could be in danger if policymakers in washington or tel aviv decide to jump the gun and start a war on grounds which are far from being transparent i'm going to check our reporting from washington our team. all the reasons for the unprecedented pressure currently mounting on iran and partly in the internal affairs of the u.s. and israel that's a view of a research fellow at the institut

strong slap and an iron fist he spoke about a graceless and invade is being snatched from within the arabian president mahmoud ahmadinejad's responding to that i am a report he slammed the report and he said that iran would not step back one iota from developing its nuclear program he said that the report was relying on baseless claims that you rand is building a nuclear bomb. russia's state atomic company sat on is considering building new power generating units for iran's pushchair nuclear plant this comes just after the i.a.e.a. the latest report said it couldn't disprove that iran is attempting to build atomic weapons we spoke to the operations spokesperson said again no because he said if the project does go ahead it would on full display for the agency to observe the first union show nuclear power plant is a unique informational project because so lots of countries including western countries are involved in the women piece in all this project and all the job which was done by russian special use was done under the full control of i saw. the forcible implementation of the possible cons
