mr. mousavi or mr. kharobi, since mr.afsanjani made his talked said a few weeks ago talking about annuling the election of holding fresh elections. that issue is gone -- double what is the other side of the deal? putting pressure on mr. ahmadinejad? >> it is putting pressure on mr. ahmadinejad and trying to force mr. ahmadinejad out in a different way. it there are constitutional issues regarding his next cabinet, whether he is able to master the right kind of support and essentially putting the supreme leader in it a dead alumna on what to do with him. but in the place of mr. mousavi and kharobi not protesting the election anymore, which was the initial issue, they are sort of being re-validated in the constituencies. in other words, they have been allowed to come back into the fold after having crossed the red line. and all the friends and colleagues that were arrested will of mentally be released and they will have another chance to exhibit differences in a different way in trying to promote the agenda. >> thank you ve

mr. mousavi on his side and others.he will keep at it until they will gradually influence experts predict and more clergy, there are only a handful of clergy supporting him now. there is a crack here and they cannot steal it. and they will have to do something about it. >> thank you very much. the pressure righteous -- the pressure has ratcheted up. theç u.n. security guess was agreed to tighten sanctions against north korea. five main firms involved in north korea's nuclear program are affected by the measures. >> these sanctions are carefully targeted at only those entities and individuals responsible for the ballistic missiles, nuclear and other wmd-related programs. they're designed to minimize any unintended humanitarian consequences on the people of the dprk. >> the pope is undergoing surgery after breaking his wrist in a fall on holiday. the vatican says his injury is not serious and that he celebrated mass at had breakfast before going to hospital. astronauts on the space shuttle endeavour carrying out an inspe

mr. mousavi, calling for the creation of an opposition movement. a two-term president, khatami, calling for a referendum. you have people under house arrest. you have major clerics in quorum asking that ahmadinejad's election be boycotted. are you telling me all these people are doing this at the bidding of the united states? surely, you must realize that that is kind of a ludicrous claim? >> well, these not e rk, that'st i said. thonchts res the people asking the people to go out on the streets, not president obama. it is a president, all right, just happens to be president khatami and rafsanjani, not president obama. >> what i've been saying is that when external forces and governments outside of iran interfere in a country's internal affairs, it only makes matters worse and it only creates further tensions. i think it's extraordinary that the united states a allows itself to beam in tens of television channels, thousands of television channels that beam into the country and in many cases, they called for riots and they called for violence. >> do

mr. mousavi took people to the heart of tehran where businesses were damaged, ordinary people were hurt. he did it on a daily basis, and i think on the other hand, mr. ahmadinejad was provocative in his victory speech after the election. but i think as things settled down and the two sides become more level-headed and less emotional, i think things will settle down. >> you make this sound like a normal disputed election where people are happily reconciled, but you still have on one side the use of the besiege, the revolutionary guard, house arrests, real arrests. this has become a military clamp-down in a military dictatorship, has it not? >> no, again, i don't agree because if you go on the streets of tehran, things are very normal. you can walk around town -- >> you can walk around north korea as well, professor mirandi. >> i think you also have to keep in mind some of the measures taken by the security forces has to do with the fact that there has been a lot of interference from outside the country. right now you have almost 40 television channels in persian being broadcast into the un

mr. mousavi's ma advisors so he has close links to hezbollah. so, it would be interesting for somebody to examine whether this has reverberations there. >> i think you will find people minister comm more committed to the islamic revolution there than iran. in the sense, many of the hezbollah still romanticize this idea of the revelation. they don't have to go through it, so that makes it easier. but i think that you have a core. how large that core is i don't think it -- it is 20%, 30% of hezbollah, not the overwhelm in majority but you were mentioning the ayatollahs who were taking a principled stand against ahmadinejad, khamenei and so on. add to your list a major one in lebanon who had very tense relations with khamenei over the years, doesn't accept it, doesn't want to precede him on t the domestic affairs. so, you had that dimension. the thing is, it won't have any tangible, direct political impact because events in lebanon are driven right now by other factors. but we are entering a new process, a new phase right now. we will see where it

mr. mir hossein mousavi's ability to expand the participation but they did assume wrongly, as it turned out, if he did manage to mobilize that block of silent voters he could overcome the figures, five to seven-million vote deficit he had to contend with because of the ability to marshal votes, supporters, ballots, the kinds of things they have done in past elections in iran. once he withdrew his candidacy they did not take into account security forces loyal to the office of the leader, to the system, reacting the way they did to a presidency particularly since he had made his commitment to the them very clear. he made clear efforts to bring in forces into his campaign, talked about those forces as essentially being the backbone of the revolution. the model they still operated, the reformists still operated on was the 1997 model when close to 80% participation pressured the highest authorities of the country to assure a fair election out of the concern for popular election. in 1997 the sermon on the friday before the election was given, he came out and said and he assured the public that th

mr. mousavi. >>> now to new information on michael jackson's death.ray as the only one they're looking at. what kind of legal trouble might the doctor be in? jeffrey toobin joins us. but also an interview with katherine jackson's attorney. he says a custody deal has been reached between katherine jackson and debbie rowe. do we know about this? >> well, we don't know the specifics, but this was in the work. he said very clearly that katherine jackson should be the guardian of the children. but what's complicated is the mother of two of them, debbie rowe under california law might have a claim. apparently they've worked that out. the interesting question would be, did any money change hands? did -- >> talk about a few weeks ago which debbie rowe denied. >> she denied, but she has also gotten quite a bit of money in the past for surrendering some of her parental rights. it wouldn't be totally shocking if she sold them for some more. >> police have looked at records from other doctors who jackson has been associated with, aliases he may have used in order

but the man protesters say won the election, mir hussein mousavi, was almost lost in the crowd and not shown on state television. mr. rafsanjani acknowledged their belief that the elections were rigged. >> ( translated ): doubt has been created in people's mind. we consider doubt to be the worst calamity. >> reporter: the crowd started to shout pro-mousavi slogans. he hushed them, saying he was speaking on their behalf. mr. rafsanjani was directly challenging iran's supreme leader for endorsing what he sees as a flawed election. opposition supporters wearing green wristbands gathered near the mosque and along the streets. normally, the government encourages people to attend friday prayers, so they couldn't ban people from trying to get there. some carried pictures of their defeated candidate, mir hussein mousavi. they chanted as they walked, shouting, "freedom, freedom, independence." instead of the government cry-- "death to america"-- they shouted "death to russia," which is seen as a major backer of president ahmadinejad. but it wasn't tolerated. the besieged militia fired tear gas into the crowd. a few proteste
