Desperate to make it into euro people climbed down a steep bank of concrete and waded into a cold river. They huddled over fires in burrowed into sleeping bags while waiting to board a smugglers boat in the woods. But refugee hopes of abandoning lives of stagnation collided with reality turkey may have open the border for them to leave but European Countries are allowing them in this is that it supports the reality of the human eye to here like thousands of people abdullah had shivered through 2 nights as the temperature dipped below freezing he spent most of his money to get here only to be tear gassed by greek police pushing him and other refugees back from the border my feeling is not good here i hope i come here for a hope maybe that will open the door checker to lee and his father created that door by cutting a fence and running into greece an hour later they were arrested jailed and then deported he says the police confiscated their money mobiles vital documents even their shoe laces.

This was the 1st day of significant arrivals since turkey opened its borders towards europe they want enough to create a logistical problem for the greek with origins but they were enough to make many of the people of lesbos anxious that they may once again face the sort of uncontrolled refugee flows experienced in 2015 and this time refugees would have nowhere else to go the arrival of a dinghy filled with refugees at the small fishing harbor affair to me led to a blockade as local residents prevented them from disembarking the coast guard brought the dinghy here after its engine failed t.

For more on this lets bring in alan fischer has run us from austin texas in an anticipation of super tuesday in a days time which will talk about in a moment but 1st. Alan so the democratic field is narrowing what more did he have to say. Well its interesting he was due to hold an event here in texas our own no actually but postpone those plans to head back to indiana. The reality is that he wasnt going to get the nomination he finished 1st in iowa but really didnt get the balance because it took so long to declare the results you remember that 2nd in New Hampshire certain of forth and so carolina things were not Getting Better for him the difficulty convincing voters of color to back his campaign really he didnt particularly any great new strategy any great new theory that made people want to vote for him nothing immediately studio so it was always going to be difficult for him and he also realizes too that its going to be difficult for the Democratic Party to be elected if Bernie Sanders is the candidate in his view he may not be correct in that and so to facilitate their be someone as well as bear on the in the final reckoning hes stepping away from the campaign at the moment we expect hell perhaps give his endorsement to joe biden the interesting thing is though that maybe not all his voters will go into the by the camp its also a political calculation for. Those who are choosing a lot of people have spent a lot of time and a lot of money and put in a lot of effort in all 12. 00 states plus the one territory the vote on tuesday to support the judge in fact 1000000 people in california have already voted many of them for me or pete but at the age of 38 he has a future and the Democratic Party and from the speech we saw just in the last hour you can almost guarantee youre going to get hes speaking sport at the Democratic Convention when it comes to crowning the nominee yeah alison just look ahead for us for super tuesday and particularly in the state of texas where you are how big a prize. Well there are 2 big prizes now and super tuesday california and here in texas it becomes really important super tuesday it really is super important because we suddenly get an idea of who is electable nationwide of course iowa New Hampshire nevada South Carolina all Little Pockets that all get specific things that you can see well thats important and this is important this really gives the folks nationwide picture of who democrats in particular believe could beat donald trump and so that is why this is very important so we will see a winning of the field we didnt expect it to happen 24 hours 36 hours before voting actually got underway but there you have it people to judge is no but it should give us a clearer idea we expect Bernie Sanders to do well according to all the polls hes doing well in texas which is surprising we expect joe biden to do well after his win in South Carolina on saturday it then becomes a question of where the bitter judges voters go and if you look at some of the recent surveys it would suggest that a lot of them are going to Elizabeth Warren which makes it much more interesting as well for. Things no become incredibly difficult. Is here in texas campaigning on sunday night tell us again about remember that name probably not thats because she is making no impact in this race and its surprising to still and so super tuesday is going to be super important and will certainly shape the face of the democratic race from here to the convention all right alan fischer thank you very much.

A. Are separate markets so youre talking about a lot of media spending billionaire Michael Bloomberg saturated california airwaves with ads but he has little to show for it hes only polling in the single digits. Early voting is been underway in parts of california for more than a week a big win in the west would not give sanders all of the 1891 delegates he need to win on the 1st ballot at the Democratic Convention in july but it could provide him with a lead that the other candidates might find almost impossible to surmount robert oulds Al Jazeera Los Angeles clinton more ahead on the aljazeera news hour including a major setback just a day after the u.

The 1st iraqs Prime Minister designate has withdrawn his candidacy a month after his appointment deepening a political crisis sparked by months of mass protests calling for a political overhaul.

It is the director of the center for the study of the middle east that Indiana University hes also a former iraq ambassador to the United Nations he says that without a change in approach the next Prime Minister designate will face the same fate single most important thing for up for for whomever the president designates next is the ability to obtain the confidence of Parliament Going to an outsider. Is always a difficult task because the outsider has no base of votes in parliament to begin with so that will continue to be a problem in my view the next government should be tasked by the president to accomplish essentially one task and that is to oversee the production of a full set of laws having to do with early elections just set a date for early elections this calendar year and to get the country to early elections in the hope that the electorate will. Break the gordian knot of the impasse were in now if it does what allow we tried to do which is to form a comprehensive sort of set of agendas which look like a matter of taking years to fulfill the next Prime Minister will have the same problem the next Prime Minister designate will have the same problem and staying in iraq 2 rockets have hit the green zone in the capital baghdad and so the u.
