At. The end thank you very much for joining us its been a day of extraordinary and fast moving developments as a sense of crisis grips much of the middle east Iraqs Parliament has passed a resolution urging the expulsion of u. S. Troops from the country even as the u. S. Military says old supes have stopped most of their operations against eisel and are now focusing on protecting themselves at the same time the leader of hezbollah i never known has warned that the u. S. Military across the region is not fair target for retaliation after the assassination of an iranian commander cass sense and amani these are live pictures right now from iran where massive crowds have gathered in several cities to welcome home the body of cars and cinema any was assassination by us 3 days ago set in motion the Current Events are we have reporters covering this story from washington beirut and baghdad we begin in iraqi capital where in the last few hours weve seen extraordinary scenes in the Iraqi Parliament osama bin job it talk us through whats happened and how significant is this vote to expel foreign troops from iraq in the reactions of course. Well foley iraqi lawmakers have taken the 1st choice that was presented by their Prime Minister saying that he wants an end to the presence of foreign troops on iraqi soil saying that after the turn of events which has happened since friday the foreign troops will be coming under a lot of pressure and attacks not just from inside iraq but outside iraq as well and as they protect themselves iraqis wont be able to protect them either so this is something that was brewing in the last 24 to 48 hours since the assassination of a lot of calls for making sure that iraq cancels its agreement with the United States and pushes out foreign troops and that is something that the parliament reiterated but you have to realize that this is a nonbinding decision by the parliament it does not force the government to do so the government still have multiple options and this is a session which was delayed by a few hours because it didnt have the initial quorum to come into session it was boycotted by all of kurdish b. s and most of these in the parliament so it goes to show that iraq yes wants u. S. Troops to leave the country but not everybody is on board not everyones on board and certainly the protests that weve seen in iraq over the last few months whether in baghdad mosul why the cities have been denouncing not just for the presence of foreign troops of american troops but also the influence of countries such as iran you know if this were to go through what would happen would iraq be in a position to defend its sovereignty if these foreign troops were to leave. But that is the question which is going to hound the Iraqi Government before it takes any decision whether to go ahead and cancel the presence of u. S. Troops in iraq according to the pretty 14 request as it requested not just the United States but other world powers to come in and protect it from iceland and now it says the mission against isis is over it no longer needs those foreign troops but it but the relationship with the United States goes beyond that there is an agreement with the United States beyond this agreement that was signed in 2014 there is going to be further repetitions of if the u. S. Forces leave what is going to happen to the iraqi forces are the capable and the question of are the iranian backed forces trustworthy by all iraqis if the United States and Coalition Troops leave so those are the questions that have been asked and that have been. Going around in the last few hours but weve also heard reaction after this parliaments extraordinary session we heard from the for the southern saying that this is not enough its a very recruit sponsored Us Government must and all relationship with the United States immediately close down the embassy boycott u. S. Products saying that legions and battalions should be formed immediately to. Deal with the days ahead also weve heard from some of the j. V. One of the sunni piece in iraq saying that decisions by the parliament should not be taken in haste and based on emotions so it goes to assure that there is a lot of division in iraq there is a lot of serious questions about the capability of iraqi forces and the trust deficit which exists in this deeply divided country on sectarian and ethnic lines thank you for that osama bin javid live for us in baghdad lets get the reaction now from washington d. C. Particle when is there for a speedy hows this for whats in Iraqi Parliament to expel foreign troops including american troops being seen in washington. Well like you checking twitter to see if the president has responded he went to his golf course in florida about 2 hours 50 minutes ago so keep i would keep your eyes on twitter he tends to react that way very for the very 1st time as far as official reaction secretary of state went on all the sunday political talk shows and this is what was happening as he was giving those interviews or is able to deflect a little bit but he basically brushed it off and said well the Prime Minister of iraq is relieving the hes under pressure from the iranians but the iraqi people really want to be there but keep in mind that this is going to a permanent impact potentially of the fight against the Islamic State that is going to have a real concern that just within the National Intelligence community but in the u. S. Congress and with the by the American People operate in iraq the u. S. Operations nato operations there suspended now the Coalition Says it was because of these recent mortar attacks but realistically its because theyre hardening their bases because they know theyre theyre now a target so you cant have troops on patrol or doing missions because then theyre open and much more vulnerable so this is having already a real world impact and if u. S. Troops are told to leave iraq again another huge potential impact on the fight against the Islamic State of iraq and the levant theres also logistics question the pentagon just said they were sending more than 3500. 00 soldiers in to the region so that they could be there in case they needed to springboard into any hot spot as lets say an embassy was under attack we believe those are going to kuwait but theres more than 5000 soldiers already in iraq where are they going to go so this if this step does happen its going to be a logistical challenge to say the least for the u. S. Military thank you for that for us in washington d. C. Now as that vote was happening the Iraqi Parliament over in lebanon has been as leader was speaking to his supporters and he said the killing of the iranian Major General in the money mocked i knew face in the history of the middle east for morning speak to mama june in beirut for us mama tell us more about the message of. Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah began his speech several hours ago by saying that the killing of qassam today money marked the beginning of a new era for the entire region he also said that what the u. S. Had done by killing him was starting a new war of a different type now mr now throw went on at length to blame soli mr trump for what had happened and he called the killing of costumes for their money a open and brazen crime he then went on to list several failures many failures that donald trump in his words had committed since becoming president of the United States in 2016 and he then segue into what became the main theme of his speech which was that by killing their money the u. S. Military and all its assets in the region had now effectively become targets that they would be targeted for retaliation take a listen to more of what minister had to say specifically about this im not allowed their own many are debating how do just punishment should be how can we avenged for the death of sulaimani and wind is should we talk at a big figure as important as many like to the u. S. Even staff the secretary of defense theres nobody as important as. His shoe alone is worth from and in tire capital of a fair field ill be clear their response is to target them merican military presence in the region the American Military bases their vessels every american officer and soldier in our region and our countries on our soul the American Army is the one who killed these people and theyre the ones who will be paying the price. Folley after stating all of that however mr nasrallah then drew an important distinction and he said that he was not speaking about american citizens in the region he went on to say that targeting u. S. Nationals u. S. Citizens in this region would not be the right thing to do that it would be wrong to harm them you also said that tacking u. S. Civilians anywhere would only serve u. S. President Donald Trumps interests thank you very much for that live for us in beirut we want to show you now some live pictures from iran and this is mashad in iran where the body of Major General hossam somali has arrived as you can see thousands of people there thousands of mourners paying their respects to the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary guards elite forces who was targeted by u. S. Forces in baghdad on friday his body in my shot in the holy city of my shot it will be later flown to tehran and then his hometown of care mon for burial on tuesday 3 days of mourning under way right now in iran following the assassination of Major General hossam somali a senior political analyst. Is with us now in the studio impressive crosses whove seen in iran today. Will this assassination you think before we go to whats happening in iraq well this is us a nation bolster the position of the Iranian Regime today absolutely its already clear over the last 48 hours how the voices for the regime have drowned the voices against the regime on the streets of tehran on the streets of karbala in the south and certainly on the streets of iraq as well so. Whether he meant it or not but by assassinating. Some sort of money person try. Has basically done the popular opposition in both countries a disfavor and done the regime a huge favor by are allowing him to corliss the you know the National Sentiments if you will in favor of the regime against the United States and by that drowning the voices of the opposition what options does the iranian government have right now they have to respond somehow to this assassination if they dont theyll be seen as being weak what do you expect their response to do what i when i when i heard. Speaking from lebanon from the bunker and from his bunker in lebanon talk about you know such bluster warden confrontation and so on so forth this defiance and we hear so many threats about this and that city in the middle east is going to be attacked we even had guests on air speaking about how no americans going to be safe anywhere in the middle east or southeast asians and people randomly and not so randomly speaking about war as if. Life doesnt mean much in the middle east as if that the millions of people that died already in syria in iraq in libya in yemen as if none of that matters if parents dont loose children as if children dont weep for the loss of their parents as a societys dont get destroyed it is really buckling the ease with which we talk about apocalyptic or scenarios of war after the death of a general after the assassination of a general when instead of vying for more for certain and more violence seeking diplomacy as the american president should have done when his maximum. Maximum pressure sided you failed and now what the iranians and the United States are exchanging those threats for war now to your to your question clearly the United States is more than happy to face iran in the battlefield and as President Trump has already named 52 sites that they are more than more than ready to help in the beginning. When force doesnt work it seems like more force well as if and the iranians are saying we are not going to face the United States on the battlefield basically they would be facing it in the shadows of the middle east and the universe we live in by thought of getting americans an american our allies through law intensity warfares through assassinations and all sorts of other a symmetrical attacks against american installations value by itself by the way it could lead to more escalation and rose collation because if the next big thing happens even coincidently against an American Target or america and President Trump decides for whatever reason political or strategic decide to respond the way hes threatening we are definitely entering a logical war and that. Cannot be in the interest of anyone its certainly a very scary very scary scenario lets talk about iraq now and whats happened there over the last few hours the Iraqi Parliament voting to expel foreign troops from the country its a nonbinding vote of course the ball now in the government scam and weve already heard certain reactions from iraq not everyone on board it seems what are the governments options now well look i mean it has more than one of course and one of them to my mind is for it to to to to to to find again in its place in the arab pulled and i think it will be welcomed to its arab surroundings iraq does not have to be held hostage neither to tehran nor to washington iraq is an indispensable country and iraqis and other arabs around in the area are more than happy to be joining one another and helping one another. But the fact that iraq would become a play why iran on the United States rhine for influence in that country has certainly been destructive to it for the time being the tide has been shifting in favor of iran against the United States in iraq worth of iraq is no will decide to go it alone or look for the more appeasing option over pusing your on under the circumstances remains to be seen i am not very optimistic on the short term for the future of iraq thank you for that marwan as always good to get your insight its just gone past 1715 g. M. T. Youre watching live from doha a reminder of the main developments following the assassination of the rain in general cuss and silly money Iraqs Parliament has voted to ask the government to expel 4 introduce this follows a call from the caretaker Prime Minister ive to maadi to act over the us assassination also in mining which took place near Baghdad Airport on fighting speaking at the same time as iraqi Prime Minister in lebanon hezbollahs leader said the u.

Not to india way to say south point job which has a majority Sikh Community has seen some of the most vocal objections to the new citizenship law with many saying it discriminates against muslims so i have raman reports from. Hindu sikh Christian Brothers real one now and forever they chant this is a day of peaceful but noisy protest against indias citizenship law in looked to her and across the state of punjab outside the main mosque the minority was slim community and making their voices heard in the majority Sikh Community adjoining them.

But now facing criticism from the sikh faith salie senior figure head priest guarantee her 3 things who was muslims to be included in the citizenship law the Akali Dal Party chief has done a complete u.

A. T. Could well influence those voters across the board to wards i say to his opponents the Congress Party and its allies they currently control the state of punjab in the last general election secular candidates consolidated their victories across punjab and much of the credit was given to the muslim vote. While any 3 chair lection is a long way off changing opinion is all the senior muslim priest at this mosque can do for now.
