tit for tat with iran doomed ukrainian ailerliner. there were a number who tweeted, uh, pete, they weren't caught in the middle. they were shot down by iran, military incompetence by the leading state sponsor of terrorism. just because dems hate trump accident justify equivalent with iran. the this in a tweet, innocent civilians are now dead because of iran. full stop. then conserve david trench who tweeted nope, nope, nope. here's what i'm wondering what if we apply a limit ationlimita causation. in general injure actions, jurors are given instructions by judges. in my home state of pennsylvania the standard jury instruction begins this way, quote, negligent conduct is a factual cause of harm if the conduct played an actual, real role in harming the plaintiff. the connection between the conduct and the harm can not be image nairy or signature. and multiple events can contribute to a single injury. that does not mean that everyone is at equal fault. the tradition tort question is did the event substantial contribute to the injury. it

president donald trump responds to iran's tat retaliator attacks on u.s. military bases promising new sanctions. on iran strikes happened in the early hours of wednesday morning with dozens of itself raining down on to the u.s. bases in iraq in response to the assassination of tehran's top general. meanwhile ukraine's interior ministry confirmed that all 176 people on board ukrainian airlines plane that crashed in tehran were killed. and that man pitched in and president obama officially launched the turks treat natural gas pipeline the project will supply the turkish and even markets with russian gas. knife from moscow where it's just past 2 in the morning you're watching international welcome to the program. now iran's envoy to the u.n. has said the country is not planning any more attacks against the u.s. as long as washington refrains from further aggression he also said terence revenge for the death of his top general has been fulfilled after last night's missile strikes on 2 u.s. bases in iraq president trump earlier responded to those strikes by pro

this is not a tit—for—tat escalation orjust another milestone.e was pointing out. the pentagon has been describing the news today as a defensive action. is that your view? is it a defensive action or a deliberate provocation? there is actually a saying for this, drop by in ocean forms which tra nslates drop by in ocean forms which translates across many cultures. it has been this tit—for—tat escalation which has forced the hand of the trump administration to take what i do believe is a defensive action. qasem soleimani does notjust have american and british blood in his hand but the blood of any countries circuitry to the coalition in the middle east. whether you look in yemen or iraq or syria or lebanon or elsewhere in the persian gulf, if there has been a proxy or partner of there has been a proxy or partner of the islamic republic, qasem soleimani has been the linchpin in funding, arming, training them to fight against the status quo powers and the western led world order under this security interest in the middle east. in many ways, it is som

what do you know about the tit-for-tat that is ongoing. we've got a shooting war. >> reporter: yeah, we know it's happening as we speak. there was waves hitting the al assad airbase as hallie pointed out. they will be able to play video of president trump visiting the troops there. this was clearly a signal to people in iran. the key they were fired from iran into iraq. the shia militias. these were ballistic missiles. at least a dozen of them fired from iran. they would have had to travel 200 miles. so what the eye rainies are doing is sending a message to the u.s. military that they are willing to use these ballistic missiles. clearly after the killing of general soleimani, the u.s. military will stay on a heightened alert. the key is is this over? is this the first wave of many waves? >> let's talk about the weaponry here. it's asymmetric as always with us in the middle east. we use drones from a helicopter to kill soleimani. they're using ballistic missiles which are not exactly surgical. when they do that, anything and everything in f

hybrid warfare tactics and soleimani was expert tat it. barbara leaf, this is a tactsical success. you've taken out a bad guy via military action. what is the strategy here? what's next because when president trump came into office, there was a nuclear deal. iran's nuclear program was at least under limits. it's now expanding. that nuclear program. and, in fact, carrying out more hostile acts in the region. is there a strategy you can discern here for dealing with iran? >> not as yet. although the president tweeted out overnight a tweet that was a bit perplexing but was clearly signalling to the iranians, yes, i've hit somebody. i've hit one of your guys, but let's not forget about negotiations. i don't know that's going to be a very compelling message for the iranian leadership in the days ahead. i think the administration's strategy, such as it is, has suffered chronically for the past year as to where it was going and how it was going to lead to negotiations. the ostensible purpose of the maximum pressure campaign. that's still an open question. i agree with mark. i'll take it o

so from their point of view, the narrative is that we did or tit for tat. and the game is over. >> that would be great. but let's take one more step down the road of analysis. because if soleimani meant as much to the iranian government and culture as suggested by the display of memorial and what has been said by the leadership, how is sending bombs assuming they had capability and intention to come close but not hurt anybody. which is hard to believe. how is that an appropriate response to losing your number two? not that i wish anything worse. but why would that appease people within the hard line? >> appease people because people don't like war. and although they are angry and show their anger in the rally when they pay respect for soleimani. their beloved commander. it doesn't mean they love war and want to see the war between america. that is also -- the least thing a risk and that's the way the war is not sold here. supreme leader said over and over there won't be a war. there won't be a negotiation either. so the top leadership in iran doesn't want t

but that is sort of -for-tat.at the retaliation is such that it really gets their attention and a friend about other types of retaliation to include, i don't know if you could ration the sentence of more, stop the money flow or work with our allies and look at other ways to really, really but the pressure on the iranian side. i don't, i'm not in favor of doing that -for-tat kind of thing because the eeriness would drag this down in the mud with them. >> he hopes that the u.s. would make efforts to respond in a measured fashion. a reminder here, you can stay with us on ktvu and on our app and ktvu.com as the story continues to develop throughout the night. we would at the just as we get more information. >>> san francisco mayor and as we have 51 new residential units with soon be available to help formerly homeless residents and of the street. two hotels are being transformed into affordable housing. >> reporter: at one time guess at the hotel paid by the neck, it is now one of the two hotels planned to be transfor

what ed can you share about "tat?he new yk tis" i rtin g this morning there was skepticism inside the government about that rationale saying an u.s. official described the intelligence as thin, indicating a normal monday in the middle east. >> the senior leaders who had was no scekepticism. the intelligence assessment mad te cigcread more inue his s than taking the action we took last week. we reduced risk. president trump is committed to protect and defend american lives here in the homeland and we'll continue to do that. >> most analysts have said it's not a question of whether or not iran will respond, should americans be braced for a counterattack? >> well, george, remember, iran's been at war with us for 40 years. the previous administration, they had navy sailors on their knees. they launched missile attacks throughout the region. this is a regime that has been acting against america for a long time. we're suffering from eight years of neglect. we're trying to contain them. diplomatic strategy, we're trying to c

and that's where the attention should go because that's the long term result of this bizarre tit for tat game on new year 2020 a lot of long term consequences to be seen but the market is quite shortsighted at these times now president address the nation today in a statement that said no further military actions were signaled how. however it ended in his trademark move of applying this maximum pressure adding that quote further sanctions will be invoked on iran so not trust policy and goal previously was to territory runs military aggression through sanctions but instead as you just pointed out he kind of unify the country and the sanctions ravaged the economy and iran is instead getting more and more aggressive not less what do you make of it. well i think that what you see here and i know this is difficult for american audiences but otherwise you're not being serious here what you're seeing is an act of desperation we have lost in that part of the world we've spent trillion dollars as i said 17 years of occupation iran is more united against us that it was when we began the iraq is now

including the political track so what outcome that we may see out of this is a much bigger push from tat ron with its allies in both iraq and afghanistan on to bush for a u.s. withdrawal of military forces and that would be in a major political when for some power french's inside iran have wanted the u.s. to essentially depart from their owns orders for a very long time ok so we have a. on one side we have the u.s. on the other caught in the middle of course is iraq marwan cabal and how will iraq decide what its response will be and what sort of conversation it will have with iran and to the killing of silly money actually push iraq closer to iran in terms of geopolitical influence and relationships in fact it is very much divided right now between. the demonstrators on the street who we have seen some of them actually celebrating that earlier in the morning and on the other hand we have that brought you on militias who tried actually to storm the u.s. embassy in baghdad and they were in fact that they got for this escalation between iran and and the united states so when you when you lo

what is the next tit for tat? >> reporter: just after the iranian attack started, vice president mike pence briefed senate minority leader chuck schumer and house speaker nancy pelosi by phone. pelosi then tweeted, "we must ensure the safety of our service members, including ending needless provocations from the administration. america and the world cannot afford war." and as these tensions with iran ramp up, cbs news has learned that the u.s. secret service has beefed up its presence here at the white house. norah. >> o'donnell: all right, weijia jiang at the white house tonight. thank you. iran's supreme leader threatened to retaliate for those u.s. drone strikes, and this appears to be the follow--through. the country's revolutionary guard issued a warning to the u.s. and our allies to not retaliate for tonight's missile attack. the iranian operation tonight is apparently being called "martyr soleimani." elizabeth palmer is in tehran. and, liz, this attack came in the very early-morning hours. >> reporter: that

we will end up with an escalating tit—for—tat. we will end up with an escalating tit-for-tat.happened since president trump has been president, an attack on his forces. they have been lots of heavy moments, particularly with the relationship with north korea, when we we re relationship with north korea, when we were worried about what was going to happen next. but it has not physically attacked his people. given the strong feelings about the military and the jobs of those boys, men and women are doing and you wonder what his response will be today. you have to assume, if this is planned and conspiracy theorists think about the calculation that this would help his recollection to have a war, either it is planned and there is no way you do an attack like you did on such a senior figure in iran and think that would be the end of the matter, that iran would turn around and say fair cop. he must've planned for an escalation. so it is either that or it is rank stupidity but it is not going to and without an escalation. in the meantime, us, america's plus is a lie is urging the escal

the decision is entirely to let as you said yourself i thought cabaye nobody really wants surely for tat escalation into an all out war but if we do see more conflict unfolding between the u.s. and iran that's about what positions you might expect other. western powers to take because we actually have my pompei are saying just the other day that he was disappointed at the sort of lack of support in the response from european leaders in places like france and the u.k. where you felt he got much firmer support from leaders in for example saudi arabia what's position do you think western powers are going to take if this does continue to escalate. well hopefully the pm powers over will do whatever they can to deescalate the situation and bring calm and tranquility to the persian gulf region which is of critical importance to world economy because if this is jewish and get out of hand we're going to see all prices a spike $250.00 to $200.00 a barrel and you know this will hit the european chinese and other net importers united states is of course an export at all you will not be that much aff

and that then begins the tit for tat for which we are all very, very aware. i think my point at least in this telling of the story and this narrative is that iranians wanted us to do. this this is all about iraqi politics. hey realized they lost the fight for baghdad. they could not stand that, so they had to overturn it. a couple of points followed. since then, the united states has largely mishandled both the events and the aftermath. there are two third rails in iraqi politics, things that, you know, in the modern parlance just trigger them. that's sovereignty and that's sanctions. for obvious reasons they are deeply deeply touchy about national sovereignty. our occupation last decade, the british before that, the ottomans before that, as a natural culture deeply deeply sovereignty about their sovereignty. my experience is that iraqis will choose overpbity over otherwise self-interest almost every time. it's simply in their national character. and the second is sanctions thasmse lived under them for 13 years. it decimated iraq, it's institutions, the educa

on assad as well between the authorities in tehran and baghdad because everyone knows this tit for tat avenue that we might be walking down the optics surrounding that can change very quickly from just being a tit for tat strike for a strike to something much more damaging. i think iran and many countries in the region will be talking to iran and specially baghdad there will be a very concerned at how this could possibly escalate and spiral into a full scale conflict now did iran lets baghdad know that they were going to carry out these attacks i very much doubt it i think from the iranian side there was some disappointment maybe the when asking for the money general carson for the money was assassinated maybe those relationships have been slightly fraught but iran is very . god a very secretive they keep the play their cards very close to their chest even though that they've been saying that they would retaliate been hearing this for the last few days just yesterday general sense an army promised a chanting crowd that they would have a crushing response to the united states now we do

we are not in a tit-for-tat with the russians were chinese. that said, it is hard to see where this goes. i was on a panel on a middle east television network, and an iranian on the other side of the screen was quite clear, a former parliamentarian, quite clear they had to strike american assets inside iraq because that is where this offense against iranian dignity occurred. i do not know if that is the official government line or that is what will happen, if that does happen, it is hard to see how that does not trigger another american response and get us into some type of -- >> and each one has to be a little bit more. >> each a little higher than the higher.r a lot and i think what needs to be kept in the forefront of our mind all the time is that petrochemical infrastructure is inherently vulnerable because of what goes through it. there is no way to effectively gas and that stuff primarily in eastern province of saudi arabia all the way around the golf rule thatgh iraq into iran control 20% of world supply. that is an important factor and

and iran continue this tit for tat for tat attacks and of course we don't have just iran threatening retaliation we also have iranian backed groups here in iraq threatening to avenge the deaths of. hundreds we've just had today a statement from the media office of the who is one of the leaders of one of these paramilitary groups who said that the attack that we've seen earlier this morning was just the 1st step it was the response to so the man is there and that now iraqis themselves would be avenging mohandas suggesting that there might be further attacks by iranian backed groups inside iraq on american bases and of course all of this is a great source of concern for iraqis or just some of. the thank you. sir for lines of council their flights to those planes to avoid rain the mayor. the u.s. federal aviation authority the f.a.a. has banned u.s. airlines from flying in the airspace above iraq iran and the gulf of oman it says there's a potential for miscalculation or mis identification. israel's prime minister has warned that anyone who tries to attack his country will be hit hard i

which they've been pledging to retaliate against friday's attack would sort of set off this tit for tat. retaliate retaliatory chain of events but since the news was announced both the u.s. and iran have sort of indicated that they. don't want to see this as further donald trump has tweeted overnight that all is well that there that they haven't seen a loss of u.s. life in the attack and iran has said that they. think that this concludes their attack so there's hope that this is really the end for for this event so we'll see how the u.s. perspective changes or if it changes in the scrums statements later today but i do get the sense that investors are keen to get pos these tensions or are there more fundamental concerns at the moment i think it's going to remain a concern for investors especially since we haven't seen the u.s. response and even even if they don't retaliate this is could still be a factor for a long time but there's still a very supportive backdrop for global equities going forward you still have central banks pumping a lot of liquidity into the market the u.s. and china

and here's your host dr costin tat.

president there say that it appears now that iran is standing down is that the case is this tit for tat this escalation now essentially over. well it should be as i mentioned earlier iran is sending a message a peace as the u.s. claims are not killing anyone intentionally according to western experts because the armco attacks linger on iraq show the iran or at least its missiles can't accurately hit its target so if they wanted to kill american troops they could but they didn't want so now president trump must engage in dialogue. instead of resing writs because iran has now are telling the us that we didn't want to kill you so let's hop because that's the message of the escalation that is one message that's being sent at the same time we saw the president talk about powerful sanctions against iran how harmful are those and how do you think iran will react to that well iran has been under the sanctions for years even for a dish it is a link up with the bans and the our sanctions and the ordinary people more than the government are suffering from the impacts of the sanctions. i don't know

house right now as they are having that meeting in the situation room as to the optics around a tit for tat situation that can change that can descend into being something completely different very quickly. well it certainly can but when you talk about the optics it's interesting isn't it that iranians fired their missiles at exactly the sign same time that missile was fired across from seoul monny so there's obviously some optics being worked on both sides the photo of the of the senior iranian officials looking at the screen as iranian missiles are being fired so i think both sides understand that optics are important here that you're not only trying to achieve a military target but you're also trying to get a message out so i think it's happening on both sides is that why they went for an airbase that donald trump himself is it is in december of 2800 do you think. it could well be all presidents have visited aside i was with president bush when he visited assad in believe it was 2007 so that is a very large concentration but i think it's also important to understand that it is among. the

will withdraw from the region not necessarily a military conflict or not necessarily it is for tat or exactly proportionate response that would be an attack on us on us or similar rock so i don't think we exact the get the sentiment here that they do want to escalate this into a military conflict and i think the situation as it is going to if the u.s. does will draw from iraq as a starter on the eve that will be when the last for iraq come out as a little bit more about you know the enrichment aspect of this because trump has just tweeted that iran will never have a nuclear weapon and walk us through how tehran has ever sponsored to that. well i don't think exact response right now was needed so even this is not considering the legal response which is against nuclear weapons if you believe that you do not believe that that is locked but dissing is that iran has always said that is not seeking a nuclear weapon and its program has not been geared since that is no way as based on these technical aspects or to produce a nuclear weapon or right now the situation with its nuclear slippers a
