elderberry mohamed ahmed foreign minister of saddam thank you for talking to al-jazeera may i stop by asking you whether the changes in the air in sudan one senior diplomat said to me saddam used to be seen as a troublemaker now it's trying to be a peacemaker. well thank you very much for i think what's happening in iran right now of course. might be considered by some to be new but in fact it's an indication of what when it started very early in the country since that time when we decided to give the right of self-determination to south sudan it was part of our effort to really it is one problems in the country and we have been pursuing this this past for quite a time one of the big things that's changed in the last year is the way you are perceived particularly by the united states because they've lifted some of the sanctions against you let's just go back to the one nine hundred ninety s. when bill clinton first put those sanctions in place you were seen as a pariah state one point asama bin laden was living in khartoum they fired missiles bombs at khartoum at one point they blamed

force saddam. should right now be boosted the. addiction force should also be boosted we believe that uganda untrue then in particular should be included in this in this for how many more troops about four thousand troops we believe that this is very much acquired to free energy committee that might appear now of course we dealing with south sudan we're dealing with saddam there's one bits left over which is abbe i know it's a place you you know well you're from that part of sudan in the first place what happens with happy that's the bit that under the international agreements no one's decided which country should be. you know currently having the unifil force now the un is discussing the matter and trying to find out with the uni's for force needs to be configuring it if it is our conviction that for the time being we should better continue with this force as is we have voiced this concern to the un security and them. to do and secretary general of the same country and wild ways i would also to them by vice president of south sud

in forty five minutes saddam hussein has you know what kinds of muscle structure saddam hussein has links with al qaida and nothing that so it's easy it's easy to fabricate things is intelligence this is one the other think if you want to ask me if you want to tell me that you know there are some saudi arabia have done this before know this is not true please see the truth ok the true is that. is not churchy the book is not that the truth. is not that he's being kidnapped from outside not because he's this intent or he's against his government no the most important reason the many reasons he is he is against you know the militias of iran in syria he is supporting the. saudi wall against. the outlawed houthi any m. and. so he's always with his government but the self-imposed self-imposed. exile and usa that's right enough is good but he got very good friendship with his excellent c i mean khalid the ambassador a few of us say and he has got so many contacts with all of it with everybody in saudi arabia still till know so there is no there is no reason whatsoever to assassinate him or

no there is no moral equivalence saddam. saudi arabia has created great evil in this region they've created i says they've destroyed syria and western countries are equally guilty of all this and the reason why the united states or the u.s. government and trump is supporting mohammad. right now even is because of the because of israel the israelis want him to remain in power because of the so-called deal of the century and it's because of syria and it's because of iran so the united states is you know they say we have shared interests now but not shared value well no the united states has shared values with saudi arabia we saw it in yemen we saw it in syria we saw it in libya we saw it in iraq and we saw it in afghanistan and now we see it with poor jamal if you recall last year on this show jamal was really trying to defend saudi arabia and he was this person last year on your show was trying to defend so you let me and i answer them that you can't you can't even go back to your own country you have to remember and that's w

real change in course have been just after the death of saddam hussein's son and mosul or they. were killed by the american special forces. that f. is wife at the time she told them you know if it's you you are free to do whatever you want i don't want this to happen to my kids. the logic of this so-called war on terror led by the united states meant that a man labeled a terrorist could now be a friend of the west libya has begun the process of rejoining the community of nations. and colonel gadhafi knows the way forward. gadhafi had been warning western powers for years about these dangerous islamist terrorists and the problems of islamist terrorists and complain that nobody ever listened to him and suddenly the world work up to the danger and the enormity of the problem and suddenly would be useful to have an ally in tripoli. get deaf you would renos his support for illicit groups worldwide give up his nascent nuclear weapons program and pay compensation to the families of those killed in attacks for which libya would take responsibility. he would also introduce a limited prog

rouhani in tehran an interesting way the most insidious influence in the whole business had been saddam on in saudi arabia but how is what you're saying go along with air strikes under trump administration in syria. well the airstrikes are essentially designed for tactical purposes i think i don't see much strategy associated with them maybe you can say that they do operate tactically under this kind of strategic i'm relit just define roughly but the strikes are to do tactical things like protect the y.p. g. forces they've been our most stalwart ally in syria to protect kurds in general who have been our allies throughout the region iraq iran syria and to more or less eliminate those elements that we thought were associated directly with or were islamic state terrorist now realize that the incompetence of our intelligence agency the cia the incompetence of some members of the pentagon in terms of coordinating these actions have looked rather ambiguous and even stupid to the rest of the world when we found ourselves for example with the cia on one side the military on the other side and

middle east so before america went to war in iraq bush spent two years trying to make us believe saddam wasn't bad was bin laden right now there is no p.r. campaign of this magnitude going on so war isn't really that likely. well i beg to differ with you slightly i agree that it's not quite the momentum that it had in two thousand and two and early two thousand and three especially the momentous event colin powell going to the united nations security council but there is a campaign going on and is being led from the outside by the foundation for defense of democracies martinu it's john hannah and others at that group who are essentially working for the united arab emirates and israel in trying to foment the war or at least military action against or at the very best regime change effective immediate regime change in tehran and their campaign is pretty relentless if you're back here reading the internet reading other things than the new york times in the wash impose which i don't even bother to read anymore. you understand this campaign is fairly effective and as i said it's on behalf of

the power struggle to the moon was in tehran they fled to iraq where they became proxy forces for saddam hussein i myself came upon a massacre that they committed in the village of car and year in iraqi kurdistan in one thousand nine hundred one where they went through the village and just shot everybody they could see and ran out again and they were well known as saddam's people. and they. consequently iranians even iran isn't like the movies don't really trust them and for years because of their of their behavior and because they used to plant bombs in cinemas in tehran they were on the us terrorism list but after the american invasion there were thousands of them in a camp in iraq the americans took them off the list and now appear to be having good relations with them in the fear is that the cia or some other american intelligence group will use them against the iranian regime which means that they'll use their agents to assassinate people or commit other other crimes and is using again the template for your book again a misunderstanding of this kinds of use of insurgency against a f

bush visited kuwait in 1993 and saddam hussein or a team thankful saddam hussein sent tried to kill him with a car bomb. and once that plot was uncovered, the outrage that president clinton felt and expressed was pretty serious, right? i mean we launched air strikes to punish saddam for that. this is a dimpt different circumstance. we don't know who did this. but to pick up on susan's point, the attempted assassination or damage of former presidents you know, in our lifetime, that was treated as one of the most grave national security issues you could imagine. and today, the president left the white house and went to a rally. and barely sort of explained to the american people the gravity of that kind of attempted political violence. so you know, i do, your question about what we expect from president trump. i don't think we can expect all that much. i think we have to look -- he's not the moral leader that other previous presidents have been. >> we have to look other places. >> at times like this. we have to look other places and frankly other political leaders have to step up to take

but there's saddam hussein was a terrible dictator. we had to live in a world where the don'ts of the words. we have to respond to it. resolution --hat voted for that resolution and i regret that. steve: when you could talk to constituents, what do they ask you about? rep. green: most of our area, local issues and personal issues. education for children. i have a district that probably has huge numbers of immigrants. some of the things the president has done is against what i think our country ought to be doing. think of the dream act, people brought here when they were children. can't commit an offense when you're a baby or a child. we should be more inclusive. america is an immigrant country. throughout our history, people didn't like the irish. they didn't like the italians. they didn't like the mexicans. we survive on people coming in, working and bringing new ideas. steve: you talk about your children. how many children do you have an the ages of your grandkids? two grandchildren and much of our 9, 10, 11, and 13. steve: what is m

>> choices about supporting saddam hussein.ices about supporting the taliban. >> this is saudi that you're talking, saudi supported. >> saudi supported them with almost a -- from the united states. >> i think reading between your lines you are saying that saudi ray -- saudi arabia is a poor ally for united states and iran would be a better one? >> i'm not saying that. i'm saying that united states choices in the middle east are wrong. and these wrong choices lead to the disaster in our region. renewed at the invasion of iraq and saddam hussein was an enemy, we knew that the attack against was the wrong choice, taliban is our enemy. we know that the invasion and attack of yemen are wrong choices, but the united states is continuously and persistently on the wrong side, be it in yemen, be it imprissening a prime minister of another country be it the recent incident in -- >> the u.s. support of saudi and in particular muhammad bin al salmon like imprissening leban lebanon's prime minister. like allegedly ordering the murder of a j

private jets in his name belonging to a company that was seen by crown prince mohammed bin saddam himself during that quote unquote corruption act down he's been pictured with muhammad in some man on several occasions in several visits around the world and he's been pictured here more pictures have been released of him and from the consulate behind me before jamal which will she answered waiting for him it's presumed and is also pictured outside the. home of the consul general. there are now more reports coming out and we are going to be speaking to some of our sources in the coming hours peter all of these security officials speaking to the sick the company that was behind it installing the c.c.t.v. cameras inside the consulate behind me it is believed maybe there is a possibility that they had on their backup service some sort of content with regards to what's happened this is as i say are now stress here media reports that are coming out. are putting in our own calls to find out exactly if this indeed is the case but it is very clear that this action investigators are not planning on l

he was being treated he's a critic of the current saudi regime we know that we also know that the saddam regime is going after its critics and this is a particularly in my dishes example someone who went to the consulate according to reports and to get documents he needed to get married and has not been able to leave so this is a this is an ambitious move and we're very concerned about his welfare but i mean i think what this incident shows most of all is the contradiction in the silent regimes claims that it is opening up and it is liberalizing we've seen a lot of talk a lot of statements from the side of the officials heading in that direction but when you look at the actions of the government government we see something very different over the past year and this is not what is going on in this town but was not an isolated case and as i said it's an idea just example but we have many other examples of joe who are so critics of the current government do are being held currently prison sentences for their criticism of the government so we see that in fact in many ways things are actually

regards to as we say the implementation his closeness his proximity to crown prince mohammed bin saddam is what leads many to believe that he was simply executing orders that would have only been able to come from somebody as high up as a perm prince so clearly we have to set. of evidence we've got circumstantial evidence we've got an association there because this individual was clearly within the ring of trust in riyadh and we've got actual evidence we've got the evidence that was found inside the consulate building and inside the consul general residence which is about two hundred meters from where you're standing right now do we know the nature of that hard evidence of what the turkish authorities plan to do with it next. well you know just to pick up on the thread there those are the two types of evidence what we don't have or at least what the don't have and haven't told us is a body and the you know the saying goes you know there's no more murder without a body we understand that the authorities are currently searching three locations as if you remember i had mentioned this in on
