washington also on the program tens of thousands take to iran's streets in a show of force for the government at the same time the general in charge of the revolutionary guard has declared that's almost a week of protests over. famous film schools will take a movie about movie music that he's opening this week. i'm filled to the program u.s. president donald trump past launched a scathing attack on his former chief strategist steve allen ahead of the release of a new less than flattering book in a statement mr trump said steve allen has nothing to do with me all my presidency when he was fired here not a. he lost his job he lost his mind mr bannon is quoted in the forthcoming book saying that donald trump jr's twenty sixteen meeting with a group of russians was treasonous the president's statement to blames mr bannon for helping to write what he calls phony books white house press secretary sarah huckabee sun this face the press following the release of mr trump statement i think there are a number of factors that played in i would certainly think that going after the president's son in an absolutely outrageous and unprecedented way is probably not the best way to curry favor with anybody furious disgusted would probably certainly fit when you make such outrageous claims and completely false claims against the president his administration and his family let's get more on this from washington correspondent causton from norman no welcome custom let's start by looking at what the president is reacting to steve bannon is quoted in this forthcoming book talking about donald trump jr's meeting in twenty sixteen with a group of russians is one of the quotes even if you thought that this was not treasonous or unpopular logic or bad and i have to think that it's all of that you should have called the f.b.i. immediately causton tell us about that meeting. this was a meeting of the members of the trump team with the russian lawyer and some other russians trump tower and that meeting was convened as you said by donald trump jr the son of the president's he had been offered compromising material on hillary clinton the opponent of donald trump in that presidential election and. this son of the president from junior had sent an e-mail and now infamous e-mail to his contact man saying i love it even though that contact man had clearly pointed out that this was part of russian government complain to support donald trump in this election so this was all well known but now for steve benen to come forward and say that he even thought this was treasonous of course is a game changer because donald trump has been claiming for so much time that this is a hoax this is a witch shuns there's nothing to this russia investigation and now even steve bennett says no no this was actually treasonous so the president has responded with an official statement rather than one of his infamous tweets let's take a closer look at that response he said steve bannon has nothing to do with me or my presidency when he was fired he not only lost his job he lost his mind and he went on steve spend his time at the white house leaking false information to the media to make himself seem far more important than he was he was really in a one on one meeting with me and only pretends to have had influence coston these two men were at one time close political allies now the president is doing his best to discredit his former chief strategist is he worried. yes he probably is and especially the people around on the trump quite worried that is why they've put their heads together and they crafted this statement to make sure that donald trump doesn't to shoot from the hip and tweet whatever comes to his mind on this still of the language in that statement is pretty harsh on steve benen so that just shows how angry donald trump is once again also his spokeswoman in a press conference sad that steve benen is not that important that donald trump's base is not affected i don't think that's true in the way the white house and on trump are not playing to to trying to downplay the role of steve bannon is ridiculous he might not have been the mosque the mine that some in the media have described him but definitely he played a role in the campaign he played a role after that and he still talked to president trump even after he left the white house and he certainly played a role in the fact that donald trump eventually supported roy moon bamma the conservative candidate who was accused of sexual misconduct would then last that safe seats for the republicans and a democrat won so all this played a role and until now steve benen definitely had some influence on donald trump and the white house and as you say that investigation is ongoing how damaging is this likely to be for the trump presidency. it is going to be damaging because simply because steve benen is clearly. still powerful he is the head of a bright box which is right wing information platform and he is in that position still he can use broad bots to fight against the president and he might do that even though sarah send us once again said today the base of donald trump is not affected that's not true part of that base is a nationalist populist even all its right wing of the republican party and they might be influenced by mr bannon if this break up then turns into open hostility between ben and trump cost involved in washington thank you. to some of the other stories making news around the world from former campaign manager paul mother for the

the revolutionary guard in isfahan province. meanwhile more than a thousand anti-government demonstrators have supposedly been jailed a government spokesperson has emphasized the more liberal message of president hassan rouhani saying legal protests are allowed but that those who break the law will be punished and germany's foreign minister has urged foreign powers to be careful how they react. we're for doing and. what we strongly advise against is the attempt to abuse this in iranian conflict internationally it has partly economic backgrounds partly political reasons that we can understand at any rate that wouldn't ease the situation however our position is quite clear in every country people have to have the right to express their political and economic views and to demand their rights and that also has to apply to iran. state run media in iran has now focused its attention on the pro-government rallies in the country rather than on the anti-government demonstrators. correspondent

these questions it offers a behind the scenes look for example at recordings for the james bond film casino royale scored does reveal a few tricks but still leaves the sense of magic intact. most directors don't know how to convert emotions into musical. or into music so the composer has to interact almost like a therapist and go through all this mishmash of what the director is saying get the essence of it. and push emotion to the next level whether for john's or for star wars film scores can help us feel a part of the action. is a reminder of our top stories this hour president denounced
