Airstrike as his funeral took place in baghdad iraqs Prime Minister declared 3 days of National Mourning to mark his death and that of Iraqi Parliament paramilitary leader. The latest violence comes as diplomatic efforts are underway to try to resolve the growing crisis such as foreign minister mohammed bin abdul rahman a phony has met the iranian president Hassan Rouhani in tehran hes called for a peaceful solution assad binge of aid has more from baghdad. Multiple attacks have been reported in and around iraqs capital baghdad 3 incidents confirmed by Iraqi Security forces one took place inside the fortified green zone where predict tiles have landed near the u. S. Embassy compound Iraqi Security forces calling it a rocket attack near the celebrations area inside the green zone the another incident happened in the job neighborhood in a residential area of baghdad and the 3rd incident north of baghdad in sanaa had been province in balad base where some storerooms were head and weve also heard from one leader of the militia who has been lower has been our brigade which has been deemed as a terrorist organization by the United States that all iraqi forces should distance themselves from u. S. Bases from sunday on birds so it is a state of high alert for Iraqi Security forces as they brace themselves for what they expect is going to be some sort of a reaction weve also seen a flurry of diplomatic activity to try and deescalate the situation in that region this is being spearheaded by others foreign minister who went to the iranian capital and met not just the president but his counterpart as well there iran insisting that this attack which happened in baghdad is a flagrant violation of International Norms and law which is something that we saw in the telephonic conversation between Sergey Lavrov the Russian Foreign minister and the Iranian Foreign minister that was something that was repeated as well and throughout the day here in baghdad the situation remains tense but calm as protesters mourn the death of their leaders in the iraqi capital their funeral procession took place here and then the bodies will be taken from baghdad to karbala and najaf is where i will made the end mohan this. They turned up in their thousands angry and somber for the killing of their leaders by the United States. Chanting and the u. S. Slogans the protesters included families of the supporters of iran backed fighters in iraq. God willing the resistance to defeat their merican will continue and this gathering is a response to american attacks on the meters and victory is coming. At the funeral of. This represent the various fighting groups which constitute the Popular Mobilization forces iraqis see the assassinations as a violation of their sovereignty and of the rules of engagement by u. S. Forces individuals the u. S. Has called terrorists and public enemies are heroes to many in iraq thats why the current and former Prime Ministers came to pay their respects the leader of the Popular Mobilization forces who is also the National Security adviser also walked with the procession. Americas tyranny will fade as it exceeds its limits with we demand the Iraqi Government and parliament legislate to make iraq stronger with the Popular Mobilization forces the army and its people on sunday we want good news from parliament no procrastination and no delay we must get rid of dirty forces standing on iraqi chests. The banners of hezbollah brigades are prominent the u. S. State department has declared the shia group a terrorist organization its fighters were recently targeted by the u. S. On the iraq border and that was the reason cited by appearing in groups for attacking the us Embassy Compound in baghdad. This was the brigades former leader because we lost commanders of the shard who liberated iraq and liberated provinces occupied by eisel iraq force on behalf of all the world this violation has all iraqi people angry and condemning the crime. The bodies of the 2 leaders. Traveled from holy shrines in baghdad to karbala and najaf where hundreds will be buried while still a money has very little to take place in iran receiving messages of support for iraqs sovereignty president burm sali has spoken to World Leaders including the turkish and french president s they agreed on taking measures to prevent iraq from becoming a battleground for other countries to settle their scores and beason commanders of pruning in group c. In depth last until the money could achieve the victory he wanted to expel u. S. Troops from iraq the parliaments extraordinary session is already under mounting public pressure to legislate against the presence of u. S. Forces in iraq but with a week interim government with limited legislative powers the government is likely to not meet those expectations. With out of the or back that. Risc os to mike hanna who is in washington d. C. As you might were hearing about those thousands of u. S. Troops being sent to the region tell us more about that and also this warning from some Iraqi Militia about the potential. Their iraqi counterparts stay away from u. S. Bases. Well this has been a gradual process in a way the deployment of troops there was an initial deployment announced and triggered following the demonstrations outside the Baghdad Embassy that was some 100 soldiers rate rising to 750 and then in a 3rd deployment about a 1000 more but now in the last 24 hours its been announced at another some 4 and a half 1000 troops are going to be traveling into the middle east they all from the 82nd airborne Rapid Response division and they will be flying in an ongoing basis there are some on the ground already there are still some deploying from the United States so certainly its a significant uptick in the number of u. S. Troops being stationed in the area particularly given the fact that President Trump had for a long period of time being insistent on reducing the number of troops in conflict zones around the world and also questions still being asked out there about whether the trumpet mr asian had the Legal Authority to carry out the strike. Very much sir particularly from democrats in congress who are questioning whether or not the president required Congregational Authority before proceeding with such an action now the trumpet ministration is basically on a campaign to justify this decision arguing basically that there was a clear and present danger that it was an act of selfdefense thats according to secretary of state mike palm pale but there has been ridiculous limits to the arguments for justification of the strike and none more so than the Vice President mike pence whos tweeted out that custom salute maney was in some way responsible for the 911 attacks the Vice President 1st of all gets the number of attackers incorrect in his tweet secondly he says there. Are some who say need to move them through of gunnies stan clearly this is completely incorrect and yet the Vice President tweets this out of the tweet remains that has not been removed and this is just a sign of how insistent and how eager the trumpet ministration is to find some kind of justification for this attack in the face of criticism not only internationally but also from some members of congress within the United States mike hanna thank you very much indeed. The iranian president has warned that the u. S. Will pay for years to come for assassinating its most revered military commander across iran they have been emotional scenes as the nation bids farewell to custom ceremony who wasnt just held in high esteem by irans leaders but also by much of the population from tehran also barry has more.

A sentiment echoed by president Hassan Rouhani who also had a strong message for the United States. That this great man deserved not to be killed by any ordinary person or terrorist but to be killed by historys biggest terrorist when this general died the whole u. S. Army is put on alert and the entire region of the country is now officially in mourning on the streets of the capital on saturday iran prepares to say goodbye to one of its most important figures.

Turkey is determined to support the un backed government defending the libyan capital Turkeys Parliament approved the deployment of troops to libya last week after the g. N. A. T. Asked for military support but there are still no confirmed details on timing troop numbers or what role theyll take this has the ability to alter the dynamics completely in libya and restore some largest position of strength at the negotiating table and given that the u. A. E. And egypt are not key in on an all out war with turkey in libya have to believe that his chances are running out and this is why we see these increasingly hostile statements towards turkey. In a statement the u. N.

Its supposed to promote communication between china and hong kong its effectively a bridge between Mainland China and hong kong and it promotes and coordinates probation candidates now it has sometimes been accused of overstepping its jurisdiction just as an example in the 2004 Legislative Council elections believes on office was accused of mobilizing members of the probate Interest Groups and Housing Associations to support the pro establishments party and since 2010 the Liaison Office has often been a target for prodemocracy protesters now as to what sort of Practical Impact it will have on hong kong politically it might be a little bit too thin to tell we dont really know yet whether the signals that china is going to adopt a more hardline stance when it comes to its treatment of the Anti Government protests in hong kong but whats interesting to note is the timing now the this reshuffle the 1st major reshuffle since the protests began 7 months ago comes 6 weeks after a probe candidate suffered a humiliating defeat at local district Council Elections so while it may be a little bit too foon to tell whether this signals how china is going to be handling the protests in hong kong we know that the interest the timing of this is interesting.

Hello chua picture across much of your the spend your clowder and some fog in the Morning Hours but for the most part it is staying mild and fairly clear and i was look at the system through the eastern end of the med but nowhere near as strong certainly on sunday want to work the way across greece pushing on to the turkey and we have snow as well across much of the balkans but really were watching this system out across the northwest because this is beginning to work its way across towards you can slightly by monday pushes in through some strong winds as well as some very heavy amounts of rain that will push across into scotland and wales and western sections of england as we go through the day but really the bulk of europe certainly on monday it is a fine day temperatures on too bad even in london with that rain pushing in weve got 8 celsius 7 in paris 11 degrees in madrid but really it is a very unsettled picture monday across much of that rain back in the fall call some strong gusty winds along coastal areas and some fairly widespread snow as well weve also got want to show these northern coastal areas of africa as we go through sunday because if you shot. And then really from sunday on into monday everything shifts east wood so again a few more shots certainly through libya and egypt as we go through the day on monday. No theres no to. A compelling film about getting an education under occupation. That is once the been of that i looked at it us us if you dont feel sick you will dont come frankly we dont feel secure but we come. But what happened after the cameras left rewind learning to die on aljazeera. There is no channel that covers world news like we do as a roving correspondent i am told simply on the go covering topics from politics to conflicts to the far mental its the counted like nothing youve ever. Cared for but we want to know how these things affect people we revisit places even when theyre no traction headline. Aljazeera really invested us thats a privilege as a journalist. Slogan reminder the top stories here now jazeera reports are coming in of multiple attacks across iraq just a day after the assassination of one of irans top commanders money in a u. S. Air strike diplomatic efforts are underway in iran to try to resolve the growing crisis. Libyan medical sources say at least 20 students at a military academy in tripoli have been killed by forces loyal to the lord honey for hotter. And hot and windy weather continues to fuel unprecedented bushfires across australia in 150 fires burning in New South Wales alone a dozen of which are out of control. Returning to our top story the crisis caused by this s. Nation of one of irans top military commanders Phyllis Bennis is a fellow at the institute for policy studies in washington d. C. She joins me from there now thanks very much for being with us so already there are reports of attacks happening in iraq and this warning from the hizbollah brigades to iraqi forces to stay away from u. S. Bases aside from the extra u. S. Troops that the u. S. Is sending in how much preparedness is there for what week retaliatory attacks that we can expect. Well i dont think we really know yet what kind of attacks there is going to be sending now were hearing numbers up to 4000 new troops are going to be sent in thats not going to help thats not going to change the situation that just means more people are at risk of being killed more iraqis in particular but i think that what were seeing now is the response we have to recognize that it was not only generals through the money the iranian leader who was killed but also a key leader of at least one of the major iran backed but iraqi. Militias thats operating in iraq and the supporters of that militia are outraged understandably about the killing of their leader its not at all clear whether iran has anything to do with these attacks that are underway whether theyre being carried out by one or another of the militias its not clear that iran can actually hold them back if they choose to move there in their own country they have their own weaponry and the fact that theyve been developing ties with iran have gotten weapons and support from iran doesnt mean that iran this is he really controls what they do so the diplomacy is going to be very very difficult here because we have to realize that its not only iran and the iranian government that has been the target of this attack but theres also iraqi forces that have been the target as well and in the context of the massive upheaval thats been going on in iraq for the last several months since the since early october with massive protests on a daily basis targeting both u. S. And iranian interference as its seen by many in iraq its a very complicated set of diplomatic realities that were looking at right now. I mean if if iraq does vote in the end to get u. S. Troops out to some of the some of the. Parts of the government that appear to want what would that entail and you think that actually would be a result that would approval. Well it raises the question of whether its up to him to approve or not approve the u. S. Troops that are in iraq ostensibly are there at the invitation and request of the Iraqi Government now we know that this Iraqi Government is putting aside all the issues of corruption and incompetence etc this is a government that was established and put in power and kept in power by the United States despite the fact that it has always had close ties cultural ties economic ties other kinds of ties with iran its a shia dominated government that the u. S. Set up and the u. S. Has continued to support that government despite the role that it has played in iraq in building up sectarianism across the board its one of the aspects that led to public support for isis in the early stage of isis his presence in iraq was because of the failures of the government to make even the appearance of treating people equally in the country the sectarianism of it the attacks on the Sunni Community were one of the big reasons that many iraqis including many Iraqi Military forces which one of the things that made isis so powerful was that they were relying not only on their own Guerrilla Forces but on well trained iraqi National Army veterans who had been kicked out of the army by the u. S. When they took power after throwing out the Iraqi Government in 2003 so all of this is connected you know right now we cant put aside any of these historical moments one quick question to you though i mean i know youre talking about the context in iraq but there is also the big to be a red line crossed in terms of proxy wars that that the u. S. Is now targeted a leader essentially a leader of a country even though in the past there might have been scam issues happening on in proxy territory do you see this is a red line and you think this changes the parameters for the way these kind of proxy wars are conducted in future. I do its a very dangerous escalation its what leads to wars that both sides may say they dont want but inevitably leads to some kind of reaction we dont know yet what irans reaction is going to be to the assassination of thursday night but we do know that there will be some kind of a reaction there will be a response and the question will be what does the u. S. Do in return thats going to determine whether this is a very dangerous moment with an ultimate pullback from the abyss or whether this moves forward into what could emerge as a full scale war we are really at that very very dangerous moment and all efforts to replace the militarism with diplomacy must be the priority right now demands on the u. S. Congress demands on governments around the world demands of governments in the region at all levels the goal has to be to say no to war and yes to diplomacy to resolve this crisis Phyllis Bennis thank you very much indeed for your analysis thank you thank you.
