strike in baghdad on friday the general's body has been returned to his hometown of cowman many saul soloman the 2nd only to iran's supreme leader ayatollah ali how many his killing has provoked an outcry against america in the middle east with promises of revenge and retribution. meanwhile germany has announced that it's withdrawing part of its contingent of soldiers from iraq due to rising tensions in the middle east around $130.00 german military personnel have been stationed there to train iraqi soldiers the announcement comes amid confusion over whether the u.s. intends to pull its troops out of iraq the u.s. defense department has denied reports that it's planning to withdraw its $5000.00 soldiers after a letter by u.s. general suggested withdrawal would happen what is sure is that the u.s. is sending troops to other countries in the middle east region in response to threats from iran that it will seek revenge for the assassination of general soleimani. paratroopers from the u.s. 82nd airborne division packing mid bags for the middle east. they're part of the $3000.00 additional americ

on the whole of the middle east is kelly people feeling humiliated me when the american city kasim soloman me the 2nd strongest now and our so i think middle east actually is facing. a limit now we'll let america exist when they actually will. go ahead with his plan to bomb. the middle east and how we'll be that that as a whole lot and i'm sad a lot of young men. and against any american at that i believe you know america will increase that you won't challenge now. but it isn't done i just want to briefly get your thoughts all of us i made right yeah just i'll not think the us allied forces response to the vote we know that nato tomorrow i believe monday morning will convene an emergency meeting of its churches what do you expect to come from that well i believe later will be divided because european countries we have not beat with this blunder they feel that you know he did not consult with them not consult with anybody except the israelis so it means you know that little vienna will say listen we are not going to but this is peak and you walk in there but if you study we tried and we wil

holding an urgent meeting in brussels today to discuss the situation in the middle east following the soloman the killing earlier i asked our brussels correspondent teri schultz what position the alliance is taking nato would be very happy if it didn't have to take a position at all it doesn't like to get involved in matters like this but in fact it doesn't have a choice because nato has several 100 people on the ground in iraq in a training mission now this is a non-combat operation they are training and advising the iraqi ministry of defense and national security officials but those individuals were thought to be in danger now and need to came out the day after the silly money killing in said it was taking all necessary security precautions but at that point it was maintaining the training mission a day later it had to call it off and following that the coalition to defeat dice that to defeat isis also called off its training mission so it's clear that the situation on the ground there simply can't sustain several 100 personnel from international institutions it's not clear what will happen

asian region is is this if this is a downing is it actually linked to the assassination of qassam soloman because we all know that of the total cost and so money had very very good relationship with taliban so is that if they did it is that there is some sort of a link between the 2 incidents or not and if it did not happen then why is the u.s. still silent on what actually happened in law as my political commentator thank you for joining us here on r.t. . british writer and intelligence expert has cast doubt on the infamous still dossier on alleged trumped russia collusion and i don't west here's they examined it and also knows it's all claims it's likely the material was fabricated . the writer considered steele the former m i 6 officer to be a friend someone he had met on a nato intelligence project and again at a conference on espionage in cambridge the pair had lunch together so west was frankly stunned that the forensic examination of steele's dossier and the 11 sources he cites bore none of the rigor he expected of a respected former intelligence officer instead west's report which

the fight against eisel but it did suspend that after the money's death well the impact of constant soloman his assassination is also being felt in yemen where the iranian backed rebels have held their own rally thousands chanted anti-american slogans in sanaa the saudi backed government those says it considers the killing of so the money an important step to ending the conflict in yemen and elsewhere in the region and a lot i was among those demonstrate his reporting for us from the yemeni capital. but if it is bring him a nice house council guy the the outside the old city of sanaa you know it's going down the assassination was because it's the outside slogans that they will carry on is a struggle as they describe them also they have called them the leaders of the also the axis of resistance so stick with. us it's coming from what strife was this was the big mistake and this would have been sleeping with the role of the us forces on the lookout for what america the u.a.e. and saudi arabia are the enemies of islam today u.a.e. has bombed graduate students at the war academy in libya the u.

while the targeted killing of iranian general qassam soloman a by u.s. forces will be debated for thursday's u.n. security council session iran's foreign minister has called the attack illegal was not granted a visa though by the u.s. and so i won't be allowed to attend christian salumi spoke to legal scholars ahead of the break. the united nations came to existence after world war 2 with the stated goal of eliminating armed conflict and the suffering it brings under its charter assassinations on foreign soil are prohibited with narrow exceptions for self-defense when it comes to the killing of iranian general. international law experts say the argument that he was planning an imminent attack put forth by the united states falls short that self-defense exception is very narrow it's really aimed for emergency situations not situations where other kinds of steps could be taken to prevent a conflict from escalating but this isn't the 1st u.s. administration to use such logic. a lock is a major blow to al qaeda is most active operational affiliate president

forces it is in response to the assassination of iranian general qassam soloman who was killed in a u.s. drone strike on friday. was also hits and erbil an air base in o.b.l. was targeted so no word yet on casualties but iran's revolutionary guard has warned of a harsh response if the u.s. retaliates against the attacks it also says u.s. allies will be targeted if their countries are used for strikes against some of it has more from baghdad we started getting reports of missiles being fired from iranian state t.v. which was later on confirmed by iraqi security forces more than a dozen of them landed in the. province multiple missiles landed near u.s. bases in. the iranians saying that all of their missiles hit the targets of but so far no reports of damage at u.s. facilities and they're being or at been hearing of some material damage damage but no casualties have been deported. u.s. president on a trump has responded to the strikes tweeting all is well and said an assessment of casualties and damage was taking place senior republican senator lindsey graham they called the strikes an ac

i think they have some agent somewhere in the ground and forming all this kind of travelling for soloman he saw they got to then but having said that i think. the the hazardous xabi or is very angry now even the iraqi people are angry but let me say this iraq is a failed state and if the american get involved in that field the state it's going to be very difficult for them. to get a victory and to be honest american been fighting in this area for the last 20 years in. iraq they never want to but but they would draw from the. defeat it's going to be very difficult for the american i think variant of the get out of spawn back on them but we never know nobody would know where and when it's going to have been but ok. i see it's. your time your perspective thanks very much indeed for hillary mann leverett is a former white house national security official and she says united states has completely underestimated iran and its military capabilities. the fact that the united states designated. on its own unilaterally as a foreign terrorist does not give the united states in law or in practice eve

well it's not surprising because even before we assassinated soloman a we had launched attacks on several bases in iraq over the opposition of everybody in the iraqi government the president the prime minister the foreign minister the ayatollah and then of course the iraqi government has already condemned these attacks and so it's not surprising that they're asking us to leave and this is i think a consequence of not thinking through when you take an action you say well solomonic was bad we got him yeah but now you might not be able to fight isis which is a bigger threat to the u.s. and its interests you've also charen both iraq a people on the a rainy and people against the u.s. before this the iraqis were demonstrating to get a ran out of iraq and the iranian people were demonstrating because of all of the problems that they have now they are both you know again c.n.n. of states and this is happening as patty said 3500 u.s. troops have been deployed to the region to protect. u.s. interests what's going to happen to them if this decision by the rocky on amend does go through and is appro

thank you can you clarify the attack soloman he was planning was that days or weeks away i think it's more fair to say days for sure and because the u.s. legally obliged to withdraw from iraq if told by the iraqi government to go i'm not going to speculate we're not there yet there's been no that has happened to the best of my knowledge and as those events unfold will address them and we'll have all the right legal experts to us on it. mr secretary you said the u.s. is not seeking a war with iraq and i think the question most people want to make sure to is how close are we to war with iran and specifically how would you characterize the iranian military movement over the course of the it is true we're not seeking war with iran i think the what happens next depends on them. i think we should expect that they will retaliate in some way shape or form either. through their proxies as they've been doing now for for how many years or bio and or with by their by their own hand and so we take this one step at a time we're prepared for any contingency and and then we respond we will respond ap

united states for the middle east and that donald trump acting on this failure has killed custom soloman in particularly as he is facing an election in 2020 inside the united states it's a wide ranging speech that we've heard so far covering the history of the region the various conflicts of the region and the united states' relationship with iran now we're going to be listening to the iraqi prime minister right now will break away from those rolla speaking in lebanon let's have a listen to the iraqi prime minister live in baghdad. do you believe in the sort of guts to quell. this. it is his 1st achievement then it talks about deals to send weapons to the arab countries that are worth tens of billions of dollars and he says so that americans from the $400000000000.00 and the from the other tens of $1000000000.00. will create thousands of jobs and they start clapping the 3rd decision or the 3rd 3rd achievement is to transfer the us embassy from jerusalem. or leg again this is the money of the arabs and muslims and this is an aggression again on the jurors a limb these are the achievements

this earlier because iraq is pushing members of the security council to condemn the assassination of soloman a u.n. secretary general antonio terrace says he is also worried about the growing fallout i've been following the recent rise in global tensions with great concern i mean constant contact with living officials around the rules and my message is simple and clear stop escalation exercise maximum restraint restart dialogue re new international cooperation let us not forget the terrible human suffering caused by war following the story for us from u.n. headquarters in new york is mike hanna. iraq has sent a letter to the president of the security council and the secretary general asking for the security council to issue a statement condemning the united states for its action iraq says in the letter it stresses that any military operation on iraqi soil without the consent of the iraqi government and without prior coordination is considered as a provocative hostile act that violates the charter of the united nations so iraq wanting at the very least a statement from the u.n. security counc
