iran has defensive concerns? that's the whole question. i think syriatually doing in syria? two things. they have propped up this very brutal and murderous regime of mr assad, supporting his use of chemical weapons, so they've got a very bad record that the international community should be worried about. at the same time they are trying to build up a military base from which to attack us and we take that seriously. the iranians have a lots to be paranoid about, don't they? there was a hostile change of regime in 1953, the cia admitted they were involved in conspiring to overthrow the government, they got involved in iraq, saudi arabia spends at something like four, five times more on defence as iran, you have nuclear weapons, iran doesn't. you can see that iran, if you put your mind into where they are, you can see they may feel, as israel does, that this is a rather unfriendly environment. without dealing with all of the premises of your question i would say the following, we've got nothing against iran. there was a time when we had a very good relati

mustansiriya most good morning is ever calling on israel says it destroyed most of iran's military assets inside syria that's the claim it's making with this week's strikes now is that a realistic claim given how long iran had to dig in and harden its assets there in probably the dug in but what israel did for the first time was hit hard if feed of influence their authority presence that influence of iran and hezbollah in syria extending from areas near to visual and house all the way east to the iraqi border so that the iranian could have border suddenly became vulnerable to the israeli air force it's it's a change in the previous israeli threat as you've sort of thing places this is a concerted attack against a belt of iranian and hezbollah militia presence in syria ok you think those assets were hit you think they were destroyed you know also the ideas. before too long war with iraq they have military experiences they might have been hit but not not thought that he destroyed them with it being prepared. this let's put it this way is nobody actually would know of the iranians would have been destroy

as a threat doesn't it in syria i mean it is obviously concerned by iran's involvement in syria and we've just seen over the last few hours to a number of rockets considerable number targeting iranian positions in syria saying . israel isn't holding back i mean the the fear amongst many is that this could go a stage further to. well yes you're right you know israel is anxious clearly but i think the rhetoric is much more. expresses much more anxiety than there really is that it really needs to be but put it that way because israel is a very dominant power here yes iran has established itself and syria has brought back assad has won in a very important war and i think that iran sees its role as consolidating its control over syria that is not good for israel in the long run on the other hand israel's just carried off a major coup which is to get the united states to rip up the iran deal that's going to make you want more it's going to make it much more difficult for all countries to have banking relations and to invest in iran they'll probably go ahead and fi

also the german chancellor angela merkel is on an official visit to russia with iran syria and ukraine topping the agenda and the european commission figures never before use legislation created more than two decades ago to shield european companies from the u.s. sanctions on iran. and i welcome you watching our senior national just going at four pm here in the russian capital now the german chancellor angela merkel is in the russian black sea resort of sochi to make it in iran syria and ukraine a set to dominate the agenda there were a lot easier to try and care is following the visit. angela merkel is getting together with vladimir putin basically just days after donald trump said goodbye to the uranium nuclear deal and perhaps that is a good reason for the two leaders who both want the green light to stay no matter want to have a conversation about it and add it to their usual ukraine syria agenda. i think it's not right to unilaterally cancel a deal that was agreed upon that was unanimously approved in the u.n. security council that diminishes confidence in the international order

it is an interesting middle east because iran sees iraq and syria as one battlefield. -- iraq iran and syria and syria as one battlefield. those strategic messages come -- there are five different once the contradict each other. host: i want to go back to what you said about saudi arabia flooding the market when they struck a deal with russia in march to cut back on oil production. guest: this changes that. killing the iran deal changes that. russia and china will see to offset the losses coming out of the iranian market by doing that. new deals. i think iran is becoming less and less important to russia. china is bankrolling everything. china has been pouring money into iran to compensate for lack of european investment. it's a sinking ship. it is a bottomless pit. and the president had a strong message. any country trying to get iran to a nuclear weapon will also be sanctioned. these talking about russia and china. he wasn't talking about our european allies. iran's economy is not worth the political and economic pitfalls that will come if they continue to support this regime. host:

because they backed this iran deal and then it became more or less a license for to iran to walk more or less a monster in syria is so in iran is in but i think you know it's the one embarrassing the west you think donald trump has called iran his bluff is he the winner in this nuclear deal standoff i think iran has lots to lose by having a military confrontation syria lebanon would be hit lots of foot what the lebanese have built would be hit by israel is that i'd still have the military says i think iran will would be very careful to provoke an all out war in that he can deliver a wise gentle syria analyst thanks very much for being with us today. well those tensions between israel and iran and the fallout with the u.s. withdrawal from the iran nuclear pact were of course the topics there in german foreign minister argo moss' first visit to moscow as new foreign minister has taken a tougher approach with moscow than its predecessor and in spite of seeing eye to eye with russia i'm keeping the iran nuclear deal alive moss also had plenty to criticize. german russian relations have long been fraught that tensio

now it's important to note that in syria iran's revolutionary guards of the islamic revolutionary guard corps have actually been key in some of the anti terror operation that have led to the defeat of i still in driving i still from the country now your fur to the deal is poorly negotiated and he said that it was important to withdraw because he feared there could be what he called a nuclear arms race in the middle east now at this point we know the only middle eastern country that actually possesses nuclear weapons is israel now from there he went to refer to iran as a ballistic missile program this is iran self defense missile program which they say is to deter an attack from israel the united states he argued that these ballistic missiles that iran has could potentially hold a nuclear weapon now it's important to note that in the lead up to today's announcement the iranian president rouhani was very outspoken rouhani is entire presidency has been a largely based on his willingness to negotiate with the united states he criticized his predecessor did

shown its readiness to strike iranian targets inside syria on tuesday nights there were reports of more color flick direct constants in israel and iran in syria will be disastrous for russia and that's why russia will do every seeing to try to avoid this kind of collusion to use both military contacts and diplomatic contacts. a russian capacity is not unlimited of course. and in this regard. change in the us position on iranian nuclear deal. might serve as a catalyst. as a move just for escalation in the region indeed following u.s. president trumps decision to pull out of the neatly i deal with iran israel stepped up military readiness along the border with lebanon and the golan heights the israelis think attacks from iran's regional proxies such as hezbollah are coming the middle east's complex patchwork of tensions and conflicts could soon be even more combustible whether russia wants it or not rory chalons al-jazeera moscow. no us could reimpose sanctions on iran as early as next week it follows president trump's withdrawal from the landmark international deal with iran to limit its nuclear capabilities the u.s. move has been wid

in syria and it serves their purposes that israel take on iran in the context of syria beyond that however it will feed into the russian narrative that the united states has more to do done more to destabilize countries than anybody oh thank you very much professor rosemary hollis from city university in london well now the british prime minister has apologized to a man who was illegally kidnapped by british spies and sent to be tortured by monica death is libyan security services. was suspected of having links to al qaeda in the early two thousand and was a victim of rendition as part of the u.s. war on terror which was backed by the u.k. as lawyers had to fight for years before the british authorities finally accepted his story lawrence lee reports. if revenge is a dish best served cold then the fourteen years it took abdelhakim bell and his wife fatima bhutto to get their apology will have been worth it we come now to the statement by the attorney general in the british parliament a place which so often hears lectures about how other countries

i think it raises the likelihood of much more serious confrontation between iran and israel and syria. i think it raises the likelihood of more serious confrontation between iran and saudi arabia and yemen or other places where they are engaged in a proxy war. what i think mitigates against the possibility of a war is that i think that iranian regime doesn't really want a war right now. i think there are very few economic conditions. i think israel knows this, i think the trump administration knows this, i think everybody else in the region knows this and when you have as much of the economy as iran has and you have as much of a disgruntled population as the regime in iran faces, the idea of picking a major battle with israel or the united states is not happy news. >> what do you make then of israel's -- iran's position, rather, its assertion that it is ready to restart its nuclear program if this deal falls apart following the u.s. pulling out of the deal? is that just a scare tactic at this point? >> i think it was a scare tactic. it was trying to tell trump administration not to ro

for iran, they are not admitting they were the ones involved in the strikes. they say it was syria. we go with the narrative that by thes put forth iranian national guard, this is the escalation israel has feared for years. in the mindset of the israeli government, they see iran achieving the continuing reign of president assad, and are now turning to the second objective, the targeting of the israel jewish state, which iran has sworn to destroy. separating israel and iran, territorially, there are two countries in between. iranian military forces have for years been entrenching themselves in syrian bases in the south of the country near the border with israel. the israelis have long said they are unhappy about that. they do not want iran to establish a meaningful military base inside the country. nightmare scenario is kind of like the korean peninsula where they were unable to prevent their hostile neighbor from creating a nuclear weapon and threatening them. for israel.big fear let's remember, no casualties on the israeli side. if they were to be any in future things could spiral.

trump has given israel the greenight to go iran in syria. >> but didn't iran, you fire first? you know, fire some missiles into golan heights? it wasn't like -- and that happened befre the u.s. announced its decision to withdraw from the nuclear deal. >> rig iran certainly has taken aggressive actions in syria, and it has taken aggressive actions ainst israel in lebanon. iran has now placed about o0,000 missiles right on the neighborhood, rig the border of israel. israel is clearly worried about all of this. the immediate action that seems to have begotten the israeli attack is the firing of some 20 missiles into the golan heights. they hurt nobody fortunately. they destroyed very little but israel decided to respond massively and make the >> so the big question now is with the u.s. withdrawing from the irande nuclear l, does this raise the likelihood of war? >> i think it does. i think itth raises likelihood of much more seriousro coation between iran and israel and syria. i think it raises the likelihood of more serious confrontation between iran and saudi arabia and yemen o

defense force shows one of a barrel of strikes on iranian military sites in syria israel's prime minister gave the justification. of iran has crossed a red line our response was appropriate our army has carried out a large scale attack on iranian targets in syria we are engaged in a long term conflict and our policy is clear we will not allow iran to establish a military presence in syria. israel says its strikes will retaliation for a rocket attack on territory it occupies in the golan heights according to israel iranian militants fired the rockets from syria but none of them reach that target. if so this would be the most serious direct military confrontation between israel and iran and syria. europe russia the u.s. and the u.n. a calling for restraint. there's a risk of escalation and growing tensions we must avoid them. losing escalation study the. tensions remain high on the golan heights the israeli army has sent reinforcements to its northern border. and for more now let's bring in abbas lani a journalist and a visiting scholar at the center for middle east strategic studies he is running us from tehran welcome t

iran ians are against us or u.s. forces so i think this might not be a direct result of president trump's decision the situation in syria has been ongoing but this is something that will probably going to see even more if not less and they're region given the fact that iran does have some support from the other signatories to the nuclear deal and it seems to have a world wide recognition of the steps that it's being taking so far up to this point again is this likely to be an action that iran would take so overtly that money to actually put all of that at risk. i don't think it's a very calculated strategy again as i said this situation in syria has been ongoing this is not just the one time attack but it could be part of an ongoing reaction and it has we're still waiting to see what to iran is going to do the supreme leader at the top hardliner in iran too much surprise has said that if the europeans abide by their end of the deal and if they can give guarantees iran as far as benefits to the deal iran might continue with the deal but then at the same time let's not forget that the nuclear deal with just about iran's n

iran. now condemning the israel strikes launched on syria. claims it destroyed nearly all of the iran military abilities in syria. no escalation in the violence overnight, but the situation remains volatile. international diplomatic editor nic robertson has more. >> reporter: dave, people are trying to figure out if iran has ended its strategic restraint. israel targeted it a number of times. iranian facilities in syria. a number of operatives have been killed. iran had done nothing to strike back at israel. after president trump pulled out of the jcpoa, the timing seems to be iran has struck back. have they stopped the strategic restraint? it is a very important question. right now in tehran, the president hassan rouhani has told the europeans if he is able to sell the iran should stay with the jcpoa and moderates should win out over the hardliners, the europeans have a short timeframe to prove it can work. we heard from president trump there with strict sanctions and most european diplomats don't think they will be able to deliver on the jc

in modern situation in syria, it's possibility to create a land bridge from iran to syria and lebanon. or if you want one huge shia community from iran to iraq, syria and lebanon. and also i think that everybody in washington understands what it means. we explained our position, and i'm sure that you will take right decisions here. >> you were quoted just recently saying, quote, we will destroy every site where we see an attempt by iran to position itself militarily in syria. we will not allow it at all costs. now, , of course, there are thousands of iranians and iranian-backed militias in syria. what precisely is israel's red line in syria? >> you know, there are many iranians but not so many iranians. i think also there is some misunderstanding regarding iranian president in syria. but what we speak exactly i would say about iranian military base in every part of syria, and there's military presence we will not allow. if they are smuggling drugs or have some business, even if they only incapacity of advisors, it's another story. but to establish some military base, it doesn't matter

iran has reinforces bases in syria which is increasing tensions in neighboring israel. they further escalated this week when donald trump pulled out of the iran nuclear deal the u.s. president referred to was really intelligence documents that said iran had been developing nuclear weapons for years iran denies that prime minister benjamin netanyahu has flown to moscow to meet president vladimir putin the russian military intervention has kept bashar al assad in power israeli commanders reportedly warned russian forces airstrikes were about to be launched. the iranians declared their intention to attack us they're trying to transfer forces and deadly weapons there with the explicit goal of attacking israel as part of their strategy. to destroy israel now both israelis and syrians were warned to take cover at the cross border attacks as collate. al-jazeera in a show of diplomatic progress three americans freed from prison in north korea have touched down in maryland and the u.s. president donald trump met them at an air force base near washington d.c. is complete reports.

it wants to roll back to iran in that sense nobody's going to come out and take you know take syria and iran side against israel that israel has a pretty free hand to do what it wants in syria in order to destroy the buildup of iranian or hizbullah or syrian missile emplacements or any attempt to build up technology that could hurt israel i don't think israel has to worry much about that particularly now that president trump has taken a very clear stand against iran just for landis talking to us live from that initially thanking pleasure. we've got a lot more to come on this al-jazeera news hour including the military lines up early for voting in the iraq election with a major issue. questions over a violent scene of an indian these imprisoned that's being called an act of terror . and the celtics reached the penultimate round of the n.b.a. playoffs they'll need to know that this has coming up the final install. now in a show of diplomatic progress three americans freed from prison in north korea have touched down in maryland u.s. president donald trump met them at an air force base
