it was part of their campaign to try and undermine british rule in northern ireland and to make northerny ungovernable. >> no warnings were given, and the targets seem to have been chosen precisely because they would be crowded with people at that time of day. >> what they managed to do was make the percussive regularity of bombs going off the norm in northern ireland during the 1970s. >> what do you think will happen? >> i think they'll just keep bombing going on. >> it's got to end sometime. >> aye, sometime but i don't know when. nobody knows. >> i'm jim mckay speaking to you live at this moment from abc headquarters just outside the olympic village in munich, west germany. the olympics of serenity have become the one thing the germans didn't want them to be, the olympics of terror. >> i was in my bed at the hotel. and the phone rang, and they said, you better get in here. some terrorists have taken over the apartments of the israeli team. and i said, they did what? >> at about 5:00 this morning, before dawn, arab guerrillas, believed now to be five in number, got over the fence into

in 1996, elections were announced to the northern ireland peace forum. formal peace talks that within the three decades of violence in northern ireland known as the troubles. an existing network of civil society actors in women's organizations put in a phone call and said, will there be women at the table? the very trite answer they got back was sure. if they're elected. so women engaged in the process of forming a political party, the northern ireland women's coalition. what was interesting about this particular peace process is that the voting for the parties that would be represented in the process occurred in sort of two different levels. so members of political parties would run in their own district when we think of politics at home today. but there would also in what they call the top up process, a sort of comprehensive vote in which votes would be accumulated across northern ireland so that some of these smaller minority parties would also be represented. the process wasn't designed to include women but it certainly benefited them as the northern

and that was much true in northern ireland and wales as much is in scotland. so we set up a dedicated office in scotland in the campaign spokesman we took somebody from the campaign to be a grassroots organizer and someone from the scotland campaign to be a media organizer. the idea of reminding people that scotland was probably more tuned to issues of the referendum than other parts of the united kingdom. mr businesswise in retrospect. there there is not any need to get to parts political because there is a center which people do not want to be in the same platform as each other. so we very deliberately set up an advisory group that had no politicians on it. academics, and other citizens so that we would be talking if you like over and around to the political parties, talking about issues that affect them. obviously obviously each of the political parties in scotland, the leaders of the party themselves are supportive of remaining and they've all indicated that there'll be doing their own level of campaigning starting as the scottish elections in a few weeks

northern ireland, other places. my point is, we have got to think very carefully about the impression that we are leaving and what we are doing in various places. this can become a long-term -- i mean, look at the crusades and their impact on people's attitude about some of the things we chose to do or not do in the middle east. it still comes up. we still have to be particularly sensitive about the aftermath and to what the long-term vision is for how we are going to manage to transition people where we want them to go in afghanistan, in iraq, and elsewhere. trust me, it is complicated beyond what i had even imagined at the beginning. we have about six wars going on in syria. most of you probably would not have thought that. you have kurds versus turkey. you have saudi arabia versus iran. you have sunni versus shia. you have a whole bunch of people versus daesh, isil. and then you have a whole bunch of people versus assad. that is before you get to tribal and other things. and then you have an enormous muslim broth

these were elections to the scottish parliament, to the regional assemblies in wales, northern ireland local councils in england, and a new london mayor. the picture is very mixed at the moment. what we do know is that labor has done badly in scotland. p has secured a convincing victory. we are waiting to see if they will have an outright majority, 10%labor has lost almost since the last scottish parliamentary election. the conservatives have made something of a comeback in scotland. in england, the picture is far more mixed. labor is well ahead of the conservatives, but that is votersfor a midterm that seek to punish the ruling party nationally. seatshas dropped some from the last time these elections were held, but not as many as had been forecast. it is a very mixed picture so far. anna: help us draw a line between what we've seen in the last 24 hours in this voting situation and the brexit referendum that is coming up, the membership of the eu referendum. help us draw a line between the two. do you have to focus on what you can't has done? what else do you see in the tvs? examining

the northern ireland team will bow off to the european championships in france. west brom started 15th today. they'll end the campaign somewhere between 12th and 16th. every place you go up the premier league table brings prize money so that is something to play for for west brom today. i'm sure they'll be fully aware of that. liverpool, a win for them would possibly save the finish above southampton and would guarantee a place for nt year. seventh might also qualify, but it is still there for the taking for liverpool if they were to win on wednesday night. >> that's the big one, isn't it, joe. klopp, if you ask him privately, if you said you can win in game and win, would he take it, because the champions league is a big one. i think next season he'll want lesser games than they had this season. i think they have played more than any other team in europe. >> this is their 62nd game of this campaign. it's more than any other team in the top four divisions of english football. the 63rd match is the big one on wednesday. there could even be a 64th match. there is a

there seems to be a huge lack of support of the brexit in scotland, in northern ireland. do you reconcile this notion of we need sovereignty when, you know, populations who formerly have been advocating for evolution of power were outright independents seemed to be leaning towards union with europe? >> the gap in scotland, for example, is not as big as sometimes suggested, likewise in wales. but i think we have to look this through the prism of us being one united kingdom. we've had a referendum in scotland, scotland voted to stay as one united kingdom. we have to vote as one united kingdom. there has been talk if we leave the european union, will scotland try and pursue a second referendum, separate from the united kingdom, rejoin the european union. two big reasons i don't think that will happen. the first is that the collapse in the oil price has left the foundations of the potential financial position of an independent scotland extremely shaky. if they had become independent in march, as was their intention, then they would be in deep trouble now, big spending cuts an

a british initiative started in the 2013 g-8 summit in northern ireland. so the argument the leave campaign make that it wood be s beiebeie easy to sign deals outside the eu i don't think stands up to scrutiny. if you look at countries signing trade deals rather than trading blocks, they're less good deals. much of the best deals have been done between different blocs, and you know, if you thin about it from britain's point of view, you know, trade deals, they need to be good trade deals. our economy is so service based that it's much more difficult to get the access to services than it is to have a simple agreement about tariffs on goods. particularly in our interest to use the eu as the battering ram for getting that done. >> you don't think britain by leaving could negotiate more favorable terms for uk trade based upon the specificics of our own economy, based upon services for the eu and the global markets? >> i don't think that we would -- if we left, we would certainly have to try, but i think we would have some major disadvantages. disadvantage, the
