was the second gulf war covered any worse than the first gulf war? i don't think so. at the end of the day, there's so many stories out there that it all just kind of evens out. and one or two people become household words as a result of it. on my watch, you know, the first gulf war, wolf blitzer became a household word. just overnight. but, look, look what he's done since. he obviously was somebody that deserved -- or i should say, has earned his status as a household name. >> i want to bring it back to the stories real quick. just talking about the people, reminding me about all the places you've been and reported from. you've been on a navy submarine, you've met it out at sea, carrying nuclear weapons. when you look back at the stories that you -- not the ones you're preparing to do, because i know you're still doing plenty, but when you look back over the 40 years at all of the stories that you've covered, which one or two would you point to as the most consequential? >> consequential to me? >> i was thinking just consequential in getting action from the u.s. gove

in the head of the gulf corporation counts the don kerry dumpster. this is out from the hospital in the program. syria is new administration for just close to kaiser ukraine. mix bill what it means for russia's mitchie presence in the country. israel keeps up. it's a tax across the cause. the strength of the family of detained hospital director feels his immediate release of the us treasury departments accuses chinese state sponsored hackers of stealing documents. permit systems, the 282, searching syria to reject all forms of foreign intervention. as diplomatic efforts continue in the country. since the form of the south regime negotiations to determine the future of serious foreign policy have been on the way ahead of its new governments. how much i'll shut off as meta senior delegation from q 8 along with the head of the gulf corporation council model for guys guys. we reject all forms of forward interventions which will have an impact on serious domestic affairs. the gcc believes that the security and stability of syria is part and parcel of the

gulf race. and council going this, not me to exhibit maximum effort and support of all the out of and is that make issues and false stability and security. and there isn't the member space of the guns go police and counsel headed to the for the sake of the x to identity meeting at the minnesota 11. discuss the latest development on folding in city and living. and they, in the meeting today to rated was that what side of your busy out of the civility and security of the see area is upon amount? and i thought it would say we were delighted to meet with the new leader, the dfcs, the leader of the city administration, instead of having to sorta and mr. se by any the photo in minnesota base. they said the key comes with a only form are when you got this message to the big that old the member states on and supporting the public of syria and its people. um, in on that, what may cement that is the ability dollar security and see what said prosperity. it is also to convey a message that we are adamant to

it's always very difficult to to understand the motivations of the gulf states. um, on the one hand you have the religious motivation in which style, very keen to say sony is love and particularly so i have the some of those i'm and what have isn't the veil and that because some of a sudden pulmonology of interest in this, in this case with the most of the types in the, in the city or on the other hand of those countries, the old, the governed by using a leads which are not very popular with public comes out dependent upon united states, military support and security. so the support handling is a security service support in order to stay and pilot against their own people so that the business continual balance go on and as moving a lead, split the interest as in personal finance javascript. so, but any kind of a global just strategy. so the says you've called consider the of the gulf states and terms of normal geo politics. them, but they are very, very strange entities. i only have time for one more question. uh, my perception i placed is that russia, china, a n

the last couple of weeks, it is 3 times the size of the gaza strip is to put it into context and the gulf states of, of the deductible. if they wanted, which is a extreme so life has so many government in city of which we will close, we will see become increasingly until the when does the days go by. but in the summer, it isn't that also what's paradoxical about this whole situation. their own norman, the allies, but they all have in huge appetites, and yet each of them achieving something for itself uh, put them sort of on the uh, the longer has with the own allies, for example, tricky and saudi arabia or turkey in the united states. now, lots of packet one by one. i want to start with the, with the american and western interest. and i, i somewhat surprisingly noticed that the western media for now have been rather restraint than the commentary i part from perhaps trying to re brown tie up to create. i saw a bony speed or to hide his group as a sort of cause i see the organization a cnn around a very formally looking interview with the leader of bloom. well, how about that of delani? tal

so you've come to consider the of the gulf states in terms of normal politics. the, they are very, very strange entities. i only have time for one more question. uh, my perception i placed is that russia, china, a number of other countries, a sort of pulling back and letting regional actors resolve this global, perhaps letting the united states deal with all its, uh, competing allies. and the, i wonder if you think that's an exception because we want to use to the other way around, you know, re powers intervening. trying to, you know, expand their influence as russia deep, let's say in 20122013. and later on, do you think that's the way your politics will be practice from now on, you know, region know, uh after is having a free hand that doing whatever they want to do, or do you think great powers will come back to the table and try to observe the influence in some shape or form. thank you. i think it's a great mistake. i understand the process of cost p occupied with your trade that hyundai, spending a pretty, it's major. there's also a particular military. the

do you have just a kite by says on those levels and but then we have of course also at the gulf states capital in particular which are being funding them long term as well. and. and we've seen this extraordinary of coming together hold of apparently defeating interest. steve. the tucks wants to be able to attack the goods instead of there, and also to take to, to the adults and take effective control of a level which they've done. the americans putting conflict with the to accept the codes because the americans have been busting the codes. but the american time as a means to maintain control over the oil fields of city and the north and east, which they have achieved. israel has taken a great deal more land, but the land which israel has occupied in syria. but in the last couple of weeks, it is 3 times the size of the gaza strip is to put it into context and the gulf states of, of the deductible. if they wanted, which is a extreme select for so many government in city of which we will flew, we will see become increasingly until event as the days go by. but mr. murray isn't that also? w

i'm the head of the gulf corporation counsel the carrier at johnston. this is, i'll just say right, well i also coming up the report from the russian military base and see what is the future of most close relationship with the new administration remains uncertain as well. keeps off its attacks across the gaza strip of the family of detained hospital director of appeals for his immediate release on the us treasury, department of keys is chinese of state sponsored high codes of stealing document switch systems. the step in more high level talks and serious capital as a new administrator and looks to form and you relationships with regional and global plays on monday, officials from a serious new government and met that occasions from the arab world and diplomats from ukraine. russell, set out reports from damascus. quits for the minister is the 1st for the minister from a golf country to visit damascus, says the phone on the ceiling of a gene. the difference he's come through support for cd is 30, told integrity and 70 models for guys guys. we reject all

the battle of late gulf in the jack sea. taylor conference center without understood the great connection that jack taylor fought in battle. if son andy were here today, he no doubt recount some great stories about. his father and his. world war two experiences. i will attempt to recount just one that andy shared with us at the 75th anniversary of the battle late gulf. many of you know, again, one of the largest battles in naval history. the plan, the allied side was to take bombers that fly low, slow against the japanese warships. and essentially that torpedo bombers sitting ducks because of the gunnery capabilities of the japanese warships. as jack to his son andy, he said the plan was we were going take fighter aircraft, the f6 f hellcat which jack flew and we were because there wasn't much of an air battle or an air capability on the japanese side at that time during the war. they were to use these fighter aircraft to go in from high altitude and strafe the decks of the japanese warships at a angle of attack. the reason

and so primarily we're going to see if we were looking at the gulf coast, mobile and pensacola going to be used by the brits as places for especially mobile indian conferences and they're going to have choctaws, especially some chickasaw. so perhaps surrender french metals commissioned, as you know, other items to the british and they are going to replace these things with interned british medal scorch that's etc. it's important to note here that there's long standing alliance between britain and the chickasaw as and what had existedviouy was sort of a counter alliance of the choctaws a number of very small or smaller, i should say, indian groups, the petite nation and the french. so once the french leave the petite migrate for the most part westward to spanish territory, to spanish louisiana, the choctaws pretty quickly except that they fall for the most part into british territory. it's also important to note here that choctaw is chickasaw. creeks and cherokees were indian confederations so all decision making about is going to happen at the town or village level. it's not, you kno

a gulf between you and palestinians living under the reality of day to day military occupation? some ways i felt very connected, actually. erm, and in other ways, the opening lines of my very first film, oceans of injustice, are, "we think we know and we think we feel with them, and we think we understand the injustice because we've read some book or some not—so—biased article, or heard from a friend or watched a youtube video. but there is so much more. we have merely dipped our toes into the gentle tide of this colossal injustice." and it is colossal. so, yes, connected by identity as a palestinian, but as a human being, i was overwhelmed. overwhelmed. it seems to me that what you set out to do from those first short films through to the feature movie that you've made, the teacher — and we'll talk about that in detail — but what you've always sought to do is tell intimate, human stories. is that the beginning of all of your work, to alight upon a particular moment and story and human experience? absolutely. i think that's what i'm interested in, sort of the human dynamics, get

state, very wealthy and influential gulf states, a gulf state with a close relationship with the unitedingdom. the qatari flags interspersed with the union flag are flying on the mall, which is tradition for these big state visits. we heard last night the queen will have her roles and responsibilities somewhat reduced, she is recovering from a chest infection from early november so the outside roles will be somewhat reduced for her, no taking part in the ceremonial welcome and inspection of the troops at horse guards parade, no processions in open carriages along the mall but she will be taking part in the formal lunch. but the princess of wales will be taking part later today in those first instances of this ceremonial state visits, the kind of state visit that is precisely a meticulously detailed down to the last detail and goes like clockwork, it is something the united kingdom is very well known for. it is done with the help of the royal household in conjunction with the foreign and commonwealth office, so lots to discuss, not least qatar itself, often described as a country with a

they want to see syria pulled away from iran, brought closer to the gulf countries. that is something officials in washington. definitely appreciate. and i think in the event that the trump administration is not going to be list h t s. i think it's safe to assume that some golf countries like suddenly ravia and cuts are with new role position to sort of be a bridge between the trump administration and the new damascus government. the is what a forces has killed at least $27.00 palestinians in the last 24 hours. the thousands continue to flee northern goza. the strips, health care system has been crippled by these very siege and engulf and relentless foaming of medical facilities. many people are heading it to take show to the intonation hospital which is no longer functioning for patients. you should be able to navigate hospices and support health care system. this is a pattern that we have been seeing over and over through the found clicking once areas become diseased for a while with no access to the military. yes. with no access to have access to search for. suffi

the gulf is watching events incredibly closely because they know the potential consequences could falllse. they're concerned about the risk that syria breaks up, that it does not retain its borders, that it is no longer a single, sovereign unitary state, that it breaks up into its constituent parts. that is one concern. another concern is what happens to the government of syria. does it become extreme? does it become led by a terrorist organisation that according to the delegates here are one that could threaten the rest of the region? in other words, is there a stable political transition, or does this return to the kind of blood—letting that many here in the gulf have seen from syria for many, many yea rs. so there is a lot of concern, a lot of caution. we have also heard from a very senior us diplomat here this morning, daniel shapiro from the defence department, who has made clear that us forces which are based in eastern syria will remain there. they are there to combat isis or daesh, and have been there for many years. he did admit, he accepted that the uncertainty of what is tak

actually, judging by the sort of destruction in the scale and the remoteness of the town over the gulf from the front line. it is most likely that us made a long range high mas massages were used to carry out this attack. employees of the russian investigation committees, main military department, are inspecting the aftermath of the showing in the course of regions. town of the gulf during an inspection, fragments and shrapnel were found, presumably parts of a high mar system. all of them will be seized and sent for further examination to clarify their specific type and kind of show. now if that version is to be finalized and announced as the final one, then this would be the very same type of munitions that the ukrainians use. less than 5 days ago, in fact, a to attack a small town over is also in russia's course region that the destruction was truly horrendous. also, civilians died and the engine in the vast attack too. and so it seems that the ukrainians are guessing a bit of a taste of launching such attacks against peaceful and civilian targets. and when it comes to russia's react
