so presumably, if your analysis is right, teheran could actually decide this just isn't working for usnian citizens, andi average ordinary iranian citizens, and i am not talking about the hardliners, the ordinary citizens, middle—class iranians, who wanted to be connected to the global financial system, they have not had the simplest benefits of a well—connected financial system that well—connected financial system that we have in the west, like credit cards and cards that underline payments and so on. they were initially supporting the deal because they believe that this is finally the moment that teheran will come out of economic and possibly political isolation after more than four decades. but now even those people are becoming more and more convinced that maybe the hardliners did have a point, to remain very sceptical about this deal, and maybe this after all was not exactly in the best interests, national interests, of iran. sounds like both hardliners in iran and united states perhaps winning the day then. thank you forjoining us from hamburg. bite, a look at the weather here ov

the two sides appear headed for a major conflict over teheran's nuclear program.retary of state mike pompeo confirming the files are -- laying out an elaborate detail his case against iran. the prime minister claims his evidence proves iranians were brazenly lying when they said they were not pursuing nuclear weapons. president trump expected to decide in the next 12 days whether to pull out of the iran nuclear deal, a fact not lost on netanyahu. >> i'm sure he'll do the right thing. the right thing for the united states, the right thing for israel, and the right thing for the peace of the world. >> let's bring in cnn's ian lee with the latest developments. just that presentation from the prime minister of israel laying out what he says are terrible deeds by the iranians, cheating and lying and these iranian files somehow spirited out these pages and pages of documents. tell us about it. >> yeah, christine. he hailed his intelligence agency for getting this information. it was a very damning presentation. the prime minister talking about nuclear weapons schematics

. >> can you imagine the verification, think about the verification regime we put in place in teheran. how complicated it was. a physicist to work out and oversee the fine grain details of that. imagine what you need in north korea an even less transparent company. calling kim jong-un honorable. >> he is building him up. building up his ego. and trump softens that. wonderful thing for the world, great for america. and donald trump would deserve a nobel prize for that. one has to be skeptical given as i said how many times the north koreans have sold that carpet. >>> the north kor"new york time investigati investigati investigating cambridge analytica. significant development details on that ahead. at t-mobile, we don't just see uniforms. we see the people behind them. so we're committed to helping veterans through job training when their service ends... and to hiring 10,000 veterans and military spouses to be part of our workforce in the next 5 years. because no matter where you serve... or when you serve... t-mobile stands ready to serve you. so we provide half-off on all family line

not so long ago, i visited iran and the israeli national carrier used to fly to teheran.ological, headed by the aptly called supreme leader, ayatollah khomeini. they are trapped into the extreme model of the islamic revolution from 1979. they say that the revolution needs to be exported, they say that my country should be destroyed, they say that acts of terrorism are legitimate. your defence is never going to rely on what they say, because words won't defend israel, what will is having a very strong and technically capable defence. is it fair on the people of syria for israel to get dragged into that conflict and to be firing missiles into syria ? i now that you are throwing them at iranian posts in syria but this is as bad as anything you could imagine happening to the people of israel. it's terrible, the civil war has been going on for too long and israel hasn't been a party to it. but you are one of the countries intervening. we haven't been involved in the civil war whatsoever militarily but that could change and i want to explain why. if the assad regime allowed the

the leaders in teheran will have no doubt about our seriousness. thanks to our colleagues at the department of treasury sanctions are going back into effect and new ones are coming. this is just the beginning. this sting of sanctions will be painful if the regime does not change its course. these will indeed end up being the strongest sanctions in history. after our sanctions come in force it will be battling to keep its economy alive. >> okay. so iranian president has responded saying quote, the world today does not accept that the u.s. decides for the world. iran's foreign minister was even more blunt calling u.s. diplomacy a quote, sham. british foreign secretary said he can't envision the trump's administrations goals and demands being achieved in anything like a reasonable time scale and a top official at the eu says that pompeo did not explain how walking away from the deal makes the region safer or puts the international community in a better position to influence iran's behavior. last night vice president mike pence jumped into the conversa

files iran kept on project ahmad which he says is really intelligence from a storage facility in teheran. that program centered around designing,est thing and building nuclear weapons. he said it was halted back in 2003. it shows iran was lying about never having a nuclear weapons program and as such the 2015 deal should be thrown out since it was based on iranian laws and deception. he also says that iran kept the files in order to jump start its nuclear ambitions at a later date. mike pompeo later confirmed that the documents are authentic and adding that the kwus has been quote aware of them for a while. iran has consistently denied these accusations. in a statement the white house says in part quote, this provides new details of nuclear weapons. these facts are consistent with what the united states has long known. iran has a robust nuclear weapons program that it has tried and failed to hide from the world and from its own people, however, the white house later issued a major correction changing the present tense iran has to quote, iran had a robust nuclear weapons program. presiden
