maybe hamid asked them not to come out and protest. that is the only reason i can provide. but it's a puzzling matter. when you look at it, people talk about unemployment, yes, there is a high rate of unemployment in all the cities where demonstrations have happened but there are certain cities in iran with higher rates of unemployment and we have not seen demonstrations in those cities. >> okay. in the very back. >> thank you, my name is tom, i'm a graduate student at georgetown university. earlier we talked about the protests single the out iranian support for what is happening in syria, yemen and iraq. what do you think these current protests might actually cause the regime scale back their support and what might implications be for the rivalry with saudi arabia? >> good question. >> i think iranian government most probably will stop bragging about its victories in syria, yemen and iraq. and that is really, this bragging about their foreign involvement is a new, relatively new phenomenon. up to 10 years ago we did not hear much about the quds force. we did not know who t

(chuckles) well, uh... have fun with hamid. that's another detail, mom. uh, i'll see you tomorrow.

you know we were talking to what abdul hamid in vienna really about the syria talks there is a sort of impromptu news conference going on with this man but i mean in a car park somewhere in vienna actually he is the chief government negotiate a full syria with just monitoring that to see if anything comes out of that particular news conference right in the meantime we're off to london here is maryam namazie with more international news for us. yes that's right kemal the united nations is saying that at least thirty people have drowned when their boat capsized off the coast of yemen this week the un's refugee and migration agency say it sank shortly after leaving aden it was reportedly carrying people from somalia and ethiopia back to africa heading for djibouti the vessel is believed to have been operated by the scrupulous smugglers who are determining to take refugees and migrants to djibouti while also trying to extort more money from these refugees and migrants the book the boat capsized amid reports of gunfire being used against the passengers and italian prosecutors as a graduate

solution to the war in syria appears to have reached a dead and well let's get more from her to abdul hamid who's in vienna for us hi there hoda so what's the latest. well what's the latest is that the opposition delegation is holding a meeting as we speak with u.n. envoys the fandom is to it's been going on for about an hour now we do know from sources what they're discussing really at this point now that the syrian government delegation has rejected this working document earlier in the day now they're discussing the attendance coming so she meeting called upon by the russians with turkey and iran as a guarantee now from what we understand from our sources is that basically the conditions set by both the opposition and the u.n. secretary general and to a new good terrorist for both the opposition and for the u.n. to indorse to so she have not been met there was no discussion around that they didn't get anything from the syrian delegation so we are expecting at least from the opposition that they were probably at some point come out with a public statement saying that they will not attend.

let's go live now to huldah abdel-hamid who's in vienna and what's behind the breakdown this time. well behind the breakdown this time is a. ten point working document that was put forward to the opposition as we understand it from our diplomatic sources last night now that document was drafted by five countries. britain france saudi arabia and jordan described to us as a document that basically is more of a mechanism on how to revive these peace talks because we keep on defining them as peace talks but what's happening at the moment not just this round but even during the geneva eight round early december is that they're actually trying to find ways to start tackling substantiative negotiations well this morning the opposition had a very long meeting about hours with the u.n. envoy to find them is but. at some point it also spoke to the russian delegation that is here in vienna the moment and then the syrian government delegation showed up here at the u.n. building that meeting was much less than two hours and at the end of that meeting embassador japhet he was heading the legatio

presence in afghanistan helping to stabilize the situation there we heard from former afghan president hamid karzai and he's publicly questioned how islamic state has been able to gain a foothold in the country under washington's watch what's your opinion on that. well president cares out of the hand of his government as a valve you criticize saying you are doing the same in our in afghanistan at all and recently in new delhi and rise in our dialogue he mentioned once again that there is no chance are there is no hope to be a stable afghanistan under the dominance of united states bergdahl if you see the situation the reality reality of the situation the big question is why it day by day the situation is going to do really good and why is a question which we are going to compare to another new cold war between united states and russia russia claim a kind of indirectly supporting the virus by united states you notice it is saying about support of taliban but by russia so it is something that they buy did the afghan people has become hopeless and for sure has prison time of course i mentioned

as they struggle to contain outbreaks of diphtheria and cholera as well as malnutrition hoda abdel-hamid reports. it's been a tough start to lug nine month old mariam has only known hunger so far her parents too poor to pay for food and humanitarian aid only built to reach the area because of the conflict now she suffers from severe acute malnutrition a just four kilograms marian weighs less than whole fia bridge for a child of her age. we couldn't get to the clinic before because we didn't have money for the journey says her grandfather like many others in the waiting room the family fled nearby towers with people live in the booth airstrikes by the saudi led coalition and artillery fire by duhoux fees. to reach this clinic they had to take mountain roads and evade the many armed groups that roam around yemen a very trying experience for these him a sated little bodies since the start of the war in two thousand and fifteen half of the health facilities of yemen have shut down and during that same time an estimated three million children were born out of those three million two million o

buffer zone along the border with syria all right so we'll start with the talks vienna hoda abdel-hamid covering these for us today what are anything to report from the talks today. well no actually the short answer will be not much what we do know that there was a meeting that lasted about two and a half hours between u.n. and voice the fandom is through and the government delegation now as we speak the government delegation is leaving the building and the opposition delegation is coming to the u.n. building where it will hold its own round of talks with the mystery is anyone expecting any sort of positive outcome any breakthrough i think everyone would agree that the answer to that is no however the opposition did say that this this round of talks were critical and decisive in the sense according to the opposition if you really shed the light on who is serious and who is not serious about these talks and also how much influence that russia really has on the syrian regime so fundamental to resit exactly the same thing when he landed here in vienna last night he said these were critical

at the hamid and vienna the two main boys they would like to discuss at this stage is the writing of a new constitution and presidential elections but if you remember during geneva eight which were which lasted about two weeks in early december well certainly nothing happened there and at the end of those talks to fund a mystery i had expressed frustration and he had actually pointed the finger at the government delegation saying that it had all he wanted to talk about terrorism the opposition says it's now here it is somehow unified. donald trump has arrived in davos for the world economic forum is joining billionaires and other heads of state gathering at the end he's the first sitting u.s. president to attend the summit since two thousand and he is skeptical about what he can bring to the table of a global focus forum given his america first agenda. spaces and. dabbles this year very much like every other year the global business leaders political leaders talk of global values global trade that's the normal davos the normal davos ended about half an hour ago trump is here trouble

and the case of abdel hamid abayoud. so if we put this together, they pieces together, it is difficult to assume that morocco is totally immune from terrorism, but in the same time it's for the moment able to control and manage the situation through a different mechanism. mainly security but also there are other components in the strategy in the policy, namely the socioeconomic developments, the restructurization of the religious field, and more recently somehow the deradicalization program. but i will discuss this a few whiles later in the q&a portion because i have some slightly different opinion on that point. so let me talk about the new generation of jihad because there's a lot of discussion about it. a lot of people ask or say or made observation that we are observing a shift within jihadism not only morocco but across the north african countries that this new generation is quite different from the previous one. i think, yes, there is a new generation. but for me it's difficult to call them jihadi in the same way w

taliban an-arab impulses, and that they were providing goods and services in the hinterlands, that the hamid karzai government could never do. so i am going to come in and terror rise and at the same time i will run a legal system and banking system and employ you, and you will live with that. until something comes to neutralize the death grip of that i have on your life. >> i am not sure you can answer this, but you probably have an opinion. in view of the success of the cia and the best russian forces troops after 2001 -- special 2001, troops just after why wasn't this strategy followed again when we went back to afghanistan, when the idea is to win the hearts and minds, especially through a recent salish and, instead of sending in 30,000 troops? doug stanton: it was not employed before the planned for 30,000 troops, it is because -- this,e been talking about and it has continued to sound fascinating to me, but it does not sound fascinating to a lot of people in the military. because what you're really saying is that this kind of thinking is not about being conventional in your approach. i

that there might be a step forward where even this time their hopes were dashed all right hoda abdel-hamid that. delegation of iranian m.p.'s is scheduled to visit protesters in prison promising to investigate reports people have been tortured and even killed in police custody. returned to the streets some continue to distrust their leaders. reports from iran's capital. in the weeks that followed antigovernment protests iran security forces and police detained thousands of suspected demonstrators most have been interrogated and. some made to sign a pledge promising never again to participate in unrest were damaged public property almost everyone tried to contact even those who marched in favor of the government declined to speak to us many said they worried they might say the wrong thing and lend themselves in a prison cell by coincidence or by design government actions following opposition rallies have created an atmosphere of fear and speaking publicly is seen as an act of courage. is the secretary of the justice seekers a student movement with members from universities across to run the

organize to bring political opinion into line where at our turn you now to vienna were heard abdel-hamid us and standing by live reporting on the latest round of talks the night round of talks to try to end the war in syria we had a bit of a technical problem but but things are good now to place to continue. yeah well i was just saying so the sessions have been inverted this starting with a meeting between the opposition and stiff them as to or now from what we know there is a new document in circulation it's a ten point plan about how to tackle actually resolution two to five four which is the basis of all the un efforts that have been ongoing and in that document they tackle all the issues about rewriting the constitution the centralization of power . diminishing presidential powers and also increasing the powers of the prime minister certainly those are issues that are part of these four baskets. five four but they have been so difficult to even start talking about that from what we understand from some diplomats respond to is that yesterday during this session between the syrian gove

a lot of you probably know hamid dillon who is a republican activist in the bay area, actually the republican national committee woman from california, and she called this plan by the san francisco teachers union an inappropriation propaganda that unfairly demonizes a campaign that donald trump -- the winner -- ran but also the people who voted for him. all right? but there's more to political and ideological bias than individual teachers and teachers unions who are talking about president trump, all right? it goes much deeper than all of that. the curriculum itself is often intention alibi whereased and one-sided. if you look, for example, at california's social studies curriculum framework which is supposed to guide the teaching and instruction in classrooms, it conspicuously fails to mention, for example, the monumental atrocities committed by communism in the 20th century, all right? so exactly how do they depict communist nations such as the soviet union? well, in the section on the cold war with, the curriculum framework only say that is -- says that the soviet union had a poor record o

bill hamid is in vienna she spoke to a member of the opposition delegation and he explained their position. this round in vienna was meant to be a real test for the commitment to the implementation of us are good to go so the solution to two five four and what the details in it unfortunately this test has been plain they failed the test both the regime and those who are supporting that he deemed to continue surviving now based on that is all of the thought that there could be commitment decisions could have been made regarding what russia's proposing unfortunately the test was where is this going to go i mean how many times are you guys going to attend talks with the indian name geneva or anywhere else and each and every time there's no outcome absolutely all right but you have to think of the person who is trying to obstruct the political process from the very beginning of the g.m. has selected the military solution to be the strategy for just silencing people however the world of a political solution should un security council resolutions that is somebody who is working against these pol

yemeni children are going through will stay with them well beyond the end of hostilities but up that hamid. pakistani police have arrested a man suspected of raping and killing a seven year old girl zainab and saris body was found in a rubbish dump earlier this month the suspect was arrested near the city of concern for the girl was found murdered sparked outrage on social media and led to protests across pakistan. taliban fighters who attacked guests and staff at a luxury hotel in the afghan capital of kabul thought of smuggled in weapons days or possibly weeks before at least eighteen people were killed in the attack on the intercontinental hotel on saturday several unknown known to be americans jennifer glass reports from. the intercontinental hotel is heavily damaged the government is investigating how the taleban infiltrated the complex security sources believe some fighters had been in the hotel for days if not weeks they knew the layout of the hotel and were able to hold forces at bay for hours that it was. come upon them the security at the entrance of the hotel should have stopped

geneva and the government and opposition still have not met face to face well let's get more from abdul hamid who is following developments for us in vienna tell us what's the latest on these talks. well certainly there have been it's been a very long day i would say for stephon the mistura the u.n. envoy started with a very long meeting with the opposition about five hours during which they discussed this working document that has been put forward by five countries france britain the us saudi and jordan now this document was described to us working document two to discuss mechanism to basically kick start the over revive the peace talks because we keep on saying these are peace talks but what has been going on at least for the last two rounds they're basically trying to find ways about how to start the substance of negotiation or even talks been very difficult even to in vienna here for the past two days you never had two delegations in this building at the same time you know after the meeting with the opposition then the regime delegation arrived here and that meeting was much shorter a lit

appears that this meeting in sochi is an attempt to try to isolate it from any further to what abdul hamid at the syria talks to the current ones in vienna thank you for that another opinion piece for you here this is written by assad i see from. syria which is trying to promote a syrian civil society movement he is not confident about this other diplomatic track being pushed by russia simply because he says russia cannot be a neutral broker of peace it's a good primer for those talks in sochi which we'll of course cover this is in the opinion section a down to zero dot com. the saudi billionaire prince. has been released from detention after agreeing a financial settlement remember he was one of the dozens of saudi princes and billionaires rounded up by crown prince mohammed bin salman last year as part of an apparent corruption crackdown some of them have traded cash real estate and other assets for their freedom and support from an extra. just hours before billionaire saudi prince and waleed bin talib was released from the ritz carlton hotel in riyadh he conducted an interview with the

bring on hamid dylan, that is damore's lawyer. she joins us now. your client alleging that google did? discrimination because he is a male or he is a white or is conservative or all three? >> well it is actually all three, stuart, and it is on behalf of a class. james is one of the named plaintiffs. there is a second named plaintiff who fits the same criteria. so actually you could be a woman and part of this class if you're conservative or be a person of color and part of this class if you're a man who is not one of the favored categories. it isn't just a white man's lawsuit as some in the media wrongfully put it. this is what we're looking for the equal application of the discrimination laws in the united states and california specifically applied to everybody and in silicon valley it is become legitimate to discriminate against one class of people and that is the class james represents and that is not acceptable in america. stuart: it is very hard to balance things out, isn't it? because if a white male conservative gets the job, other people ma
