President didnt interfere in an official investigation into his former National Security adviser and turns his criticism on the f. B. I. On. Terror and the Syrian Government announced more air strikes in damascus province and. Im telling a page reporting from cape town on the worlds First Successful heart transplant which happened fifty years ago. To begin with the war in yemen where the rebels say they fired a Cruise Missile towards the United Arab Emirates the groups Television Service says they were targeting the virus Nuclear Reactor which is under construction in the west of the abu dhabi emirates. Is denying the claim. Meanwhile fighting has continued to intensify in yemens capital between the hoofy and forces loyal to president Ali Abdullah Saleh for many years. Shared Common Ground but that has now changed and has now called for talks with all sides to end the war and of course. Of the alliance to control the yemeni capital sama was unexpected has been broadbent. Dozens have been killed or wounded since the fighting began on wednesday between forces loyal to alstead present. And that his face. Is calling on yemenis to rise against his former partners. And i call on all the yemeni people in all the cities all the provinces all the districts and neighborhoods to take a united stand to defend the revolution and the republic against this group who have been irresponsibly playing with yemeni people for the past three years robbing the institutions and breaking into government buildings only seek revenge on the revolution and the republic. Has called for talks with the Saudi Led Coalition on condition they stop their attacks if the crippling blockade and allow for more humanitarian support Coalition Statement welcome sollars move saying it would redeem yemen from the evils of iranian terrorist and sectarian militias return it to an arab pure and natural fold but the loosies who are backed by terror and say they still have support from members of silos Political Party and addressed directly can. Feel we used to praise your position in the past even though it was one of words only which came with its fair share of backstabbing disappointment discouragement disobedience and many other problems remain patient but that wasnt enough for you shame on you a big shame. Silas struck an alliance with the whose these after a Popular Uprising ended his thirty three year rule in two thousand and twelve he was succeeded by his deputy after rob a month or so had a who fled to saudi arabia after the takeover in journey two thousand and fifteen and it was there he called an emergency meeting on saturday to discuss the situation with. The Saudi Led Coalition has been fighting to restore hardie to power meanwhile salah says he wants a quick end to the conflict. Which is a vote into the Worlds Largest humanitarian crisis. The regional analysts believe salah is past me motivated and is looking for a future role for him and possibly members of his family in government whatever the case this latest violence is threaten to destabilize yemen even. On the war in yemen has its origins in the failure of a political transition following the twenty eleven arab spring the uprising forced out longtime president salah and triggered a complicated struggle for power as how the abdelhamid explains. In many ways the conflict in yemen underlines the contradictions and rivalries of a post arab spring middle east it was all about reinstating the authority of arabic drug heady the internationally recognized yemeni president he had risen to power after the Popular Uprising in two thousand and eleven taking over from his boss Ali Abdullah Saleh who had led the country for three decades had to struggle to impose his authority in a country riddled with poverty the spread of armed groups and corruption he also couldnt fend of the rising influence of the who thieves who had taken control of the Northern Province of saddam and the capital sanaa. Once at odds the iranian backed who these and deposed president who still had the support of many in the military became allies and were planning a total takeover of the country. But more than two years later neither side appears close to achieving a military victory and the political cards are being shuffled once again the Tactical Alliance between the whos the supporters was fragile at best both being highly suspicious of each others motives but united by the same desire to overthrow the had the administration. Former president Ali Abdullah Saleh now says hes open to talks with the saudi that coalition if it will put an end to the fighting and the blockade while they need to lift the blockade and open the airport and allow food and medicine into the country we will open a new page for them for dialogue what is happening in yemen is enough. This turnaround effectively puts an end to the partnership with the who sees their leader criticize the move as an attempted coup hes very charismatic in the way that he knows how to to actually go out of his way change a hundred eighty degrees and be very pragmatic in who he. Goes into a coalition with and once again if it suits him of the timing is right he will do what is necessary to remain in power its about Regime Security and hes very good at the probably the who this is that theyre an ideological player so they do have a clear belief system they believe in something they have an ideological objective they want to achieve and solid doesnt have that for solid its pure about purely about interests and its about establishing or maintaining his power base as president saleh was a close saudi ally and for the who through several times hes also known as a man of great survival x.

S. Election and a second trade the president also attacked the f. B. I. He said its reputation is in tatters and called it the worst in history a democratic senator Dianne Feinstein says a Senate Investigation into u. S. Russian links has also revealed a possible obstruction of justice case. I see it in the hyper frenetic attitude of the white house that comments every day the continual tweets that.

B. I. As an added reason for his having fired Michael Flynn thats sort of at odds with the attacks that the president has been launching against the f. B. I. In other tweets in which he claims that the f. B. I. Has a reputation left in tatters and that it is corrupt it is biased against him and it is actually repeating a story about an f. B. I.
