rob americans of this escalation run their business very interesting because even if you look at the raney in response by firing those missiles they were just hitting buildings and store where houses and things like that it's sent but that is the message there is that they can do it they can't be stopped and they're not limited to iraq and i think that is the strategic message that they were sending nobody in the mainstream media the corporate media picked up on that well and that is the city i asked in my introduction what has changed that has changed and policymakers in washington that they have any kind of horse sense at all have to take that on board go ahead well i slightly disagree with you on corporate media because this is what i read in the new york times. sports was well was a well calibrated measure for the 1st time is that just being anti trump exactly ok fine so this is the 1st time in 10 years that they agree with and maybe the wrong reason for going for their own reasons because actually what we saw was you know the no calls have shown their obvious site you know during the

theories hasty conclusions and unverified versions it's not a topic for hyoid small a preliminary raney and reports suggest that the tree did not radio the help but was trying to turn back to the airport when the plane went down we discussed the crash with julian bray and aviation security expert he says that the plane's black boxes should be decoded as soon as possible a speculation is mounting. nothing is off the table so it could well be a rocket strike missiles so it could have been shot down could have been a drone could have been. bird strike we don't know and that is why we have the black box flight recorders on board which sirree new ones have recovered and so since we can get these probably decoded then we'll all know exactly what has happened to this aircraft and it's very important that this is not for political reasons but for safety reasons and that is why it's terribly important that these boxes are decoded very quickly and if it means that we have to have a proxy policy in there looking after the interests of various parties then so be it the point is we can't really dela

underneath that tweet or someone on you to cross the question that's slightly related this is a lizabeth raney who is watching live right now elizabeth says what advice do you have for other people who want to push their passion despite others warning them not to and i'll add to that despite others wanting to put them in a box and categorize them. i think the most important thing is to truly believe in yourself because that's the 1st step to impose your your aren't in your passion and yourself to the world because especially for us arabs or even arabs but anybody who was not born in europe or north america the path is necessarily harder because we're always expected to be carrying the flag of our country of our ethnicity or of our politics in. were always offering this very exotic you know politic very boiling so as sight from that we're not expected to be carrying. guard to be pioneers to be innovating and i find it like super frustrating in super unfair so the. 2 fight that you just have to be yourself and keep pushing and keep breaking in the definitions that are there for you i try to not

barfly that sets out to decode these and this is what we hope they do that we really don't want to raney and opening these boxes up and poking around inside to see whether they can get something off if it really needs to be expertly decoded ok so as you said there is an investigation but let's speculate let's say that it was one of these proximity missiles for whatever reason how people are going to be asking how presumably a multi-million dollar system accidentally hit system villian passenger plane how does that happen. well they could have been firing at something else and perhaps they are aiming mechanism wasn't quite right remember this is heat seeking its proximity it doesn't actually have to go towards the aircraft it just detects a heat source and grows straight for it so this is being charitable we could say that this was a mistake they were aiming for something else but the point is this missile did actually coals cause this plane to crash so way this is this is a new plane it's not even 4 years old yet and so if again continuing a speculation if this was an accidental shooting

majority in iraq is basically shaded most liberals so if if you introduce democracy there bro you raney and bodies would get would when you know that it was obvious but still you know george bush jr and are those the press that have you know they had elections and know their own paper that iran has influence well of course iran has influence and there are some party in the rock which support doing and presence because they need it against the so-called islamic state the true lies are on there so when you're a good course and also iran is religiously close to them we had the same story in ukraine why is ukraine a dictatorship no because if you have democracy the rule russia and the eastern candidate wins as it was the case with kuchma when all of a craft to work with the young actually beaten you mission going the 1st all astroland over elections so a lot of with a zillion steve having a landslide against against poroshenko so this idea that we need democracy but some kind of a creamy and we do not really say you have translated into policy ok this go back to our next hero me i think it'

course only money was supposedly carrying documents about a reproach war between the saudi arabian raney and governments what did your foreign minister mean by saying that pakistan has deep historic religious and cultural brotherhood with iran the share a very long border with iran be in the same region via neighbor and we have all this taken this position that. he would like the unity among the muslim countries he would like to reduce detention between the any differences that exist between the muslim countries and that's what our stance has been how do we talk about having the assassination as we said what's pakistan's position when donald trump tweeted that he wanted to destroy cultural sites in iran but i think. the world statement and our leaders have reacted to that and the we have this is this is how we look at it that any action that could destabilize the region that could escalate detention in the region is a matter of concern to us that's the same as the british government's position is although boris johnson did send 2 warships immediately to iran through as it was montrose ma

by outside forces while others see the presence of american troops as a necessary counterbalance to raney an influence on of. i am against the parliament's decision to expel the troops give me an alternative for the american troops who will protect me an alternative to protect these people then all parties in militias even i have a party to protect me or i will die kurdish and sunni parties boycotted some this parliament vote carried by the main shia blocs it's a sign that iraq's leadership is once again split along sectarian lines rather than united by national interests as the visions within iraq over how the government should respond to the escalating crisis between the u.s. and iran many worried that they will once again be dragged into a war. overshadowed by fear and not too distant memories of conflict. i'll just. look at other news now and forces voice of the libyan war lord. have reached the center of sirte a coastal city east of the capital they've also seized the nearby. air base one of the largest military installations search itself is strategically important to have to as mon

one of those militias but there they are part of the iraqi armed forces they're not independent to raney and backed militia so the u.s. is now attacking the forces and the government that is hosting it and. the iraqi government has every right to ask them to leave and if the u.s. resists that request then we have a huge confrontation i mean maybe there are some parallels here looking back in the recent issue street books and look about the u.s. pulled into libya following the killing of moammar gadhafi it pulled out of the syrian conflict after it hits on the could this be donald trump's long awaited tick box out of iraq now that yes it was planned this response probably would turn out this way and it would be good news because it's donald trump seeing 5000 servicemen in a foreign country coming back home again as you said he wanted to do. well. but while trump has made these promises trump has an amazing way of getting and the american media allow him to talk out of both sides of his mouth and say one thing one day and the and the opposite the next in the middle of the controversy over
