Are you watching all of the International Im rosana low could welcome to the program. Saudi arabia is claiming to have proof theres iran was behind the bombing of its all refineries at the weekend and that the attack was not conducted from yemen iran swiftly rebuffed the Defense Ministry claims as lacking real evidence caleb morgan has the details. Well we heard the press conference from the Saudi Ministry of defense earlier and we also understand that at this point mike pompei o has arrived in saudi arabia for his working visit and he is referring to the attack as an act of war in blaming iran but at the press conference that we heard they announced that they had carried out a thorough investigation and come to some pretty specific conclusions as. The attorney did not originate from yemen the attack was launched from the moon and was on question be sponsored by a wrong its not in the range of yemens capabilities if it was them who can talk to the attack this is one of the missiles we have recovered and we have information that leads us to the source that these kind of components were made in iran as the saudi officials were speaking they had scattered parts of the missiles to route the room and they pointed to these scattered parts of the missile to make their point that iran was responsible if that Iranian Regime and the i. R. G. C. Are trying to hide any evidence of the components and the Technology Im sure we will. Were working on whoever is responsible about to take accountability basically as the saudi officials were speaking they argued that the components of these missiles were iranian made they said that iran is attempting to hide evidence interestingly when they were pressed for details about the location from which the attack was launched they gave some rather vague answers this is saudi officials responding to questions from reporters and i think when when is the breaking point what is the red line where you feel youll be compelled to respond militarily militarily that we are working right now to move launch point and when we have it we will have evidence that the decision is not on my level now the Islamic Republic of iran has responded and said that this is simply not accurate and they said that saudi arabia does not have real proof that iran is responsible. The News Conference from the Saudi Arabian defense ministries press secretary is a catastrophe for saudi arabia theyve shown they cannot prove or know exactly where the cruise missiles and drawings were made from exactly where that attack was launched or why ed offensive systems could not prevent that attack or we heard from Hooshang Amirahmadi president of the American Iranian Council he says any action against iran will be taken by the u. S. Not saudi arabia the saudis have already decided that iran is behind that United States has already decided that the u. S. That iran was. Behind their support you know today actually very openly said that this was an act of war on the other fortunate that no matter what you dont doesnt think it is are appointed to iran and that the International Community sooner or later will become convents to code that iran is responsible medical will have to decide whether to attack eat our food and have pretty eat and destroy the country in 48 hours or stay put and they use sanctions as in the past to kill this damage to the public they said this decision will not be made in saudi arabia it will be made in the u. S. Another Headline News israels 2nd parliamentary election this year has produced yet another stalemate neither the Prime Minister nor his main rival have enough allies to form a government which means lengthy Coalition Talks lie ahead policy or has the details. Well it certainly seems as if youve read the situation wrong this is the 2nd election in 6 months and its the 2nd time in 6 months that netanyahu has lost he is being placed 2nd to the full the army chief benny gantz who heads up a center left party now the race has been tight its only 160000 seats that is the equivalent of that one parliamentary mandate so its only one 160000 seats that separate the 2 leaders. Who is running out of Coalition Partners he hasnt got any new partners to approach to put sides his traditional ones and hes also making a desperate attempt to try and present this in a positive light hes made an appeal which he says we will fight on to form a strong zionist government without the arab parties many people here interpret that as the disparate words of a desperate man they need guns is not going to be tossed presumably with forming the next government he says he is prepared to potentially work with netanyahu so the could party but only if netanyahu is not there and who of course is not going to accept this but there are questions whether or not in the future the party might actually osc him to step down so that they can form that unity government and still remain within the Ruling Coalition believe him and he really is the king the king maker here and he is expected to have between 8 and 10 seats now and he and netanyahu have a lot of bad blood between them so on the one hand theyll need to put their personal differences aside and then on the other hand the time yahoo is committed to the orthodox parties and lieberman is campaigning on the ticket. He wants nothing to do with the orthodox parties so it seems almost impossible hunters are not whos going to be able to form a coalition with lieberman on the one side of the orthodox parties on the other so so this is the problem in israel is just too Many Political parties with too many different agendas the sense one gets here is that the country really is in a position of stalemate almost in the same position that it was 6 months ago and thats why increasingly more questions are being. As to whether or not it through the nixon is going to be held which is just essentially going to cost the country more money its going to create more and more frustration amongst israelis. Oh political analyst Michele Barak believes that for now mr netanyahu has no Viable Options for a coalition the ironic thing is the last election which was a few months ago and its and you know how to really all the options in the world he could have formed a right of Center Government a narrow one with about 61 seats or he could have sat down with benny gantz and had a unity government with 70 and added more parties he chose to do neither he wasnt successful in either called for new elections now what it appears is i would say its the final countdown to the end of the career of that and you know hes talking about a narrow right of center zionist government you know a narrow government and benny gantz is sounding like a leader unifying the people the will of the people hes going to talk to all the parties most of the parties that have run from the left blue and white to the labor party to the Democratic Camp Party all of them as said will join a National Unity government with the likud even we just wont do it with it and you know thats and you know for most israeli politicians and many and many of the israeli people is damaged goods. Indeed is foreign minister has suggested new delhi should take control over the pakistani portion of kashmir his remarks prompted a furious response from islamabad the 2 countries have been at loggerheads over kashmir for more than 70 years since they failed to agree on the borders to an up to in the british partition of india. It used to be one country under british rule where communities of differing religions live side by side for generations but 70 years ago independence or the region split into india and pakistan in a process that went down in history books as the partition and so did the man who hurriedly drew the border the year 1947 the dying days of the British Empire weakened by the 2nd world war india became a burden london was also unable to counter the growing Independence Movement led by matt maganda to fix it britain appointed lord louis mountbatten as the last viceroy of india he made it clear it was not his dream job. I am prepared to accept the job only on one condition india must be granted independence by july 948 and i will not stay there a day longer. Once he arrived though he decided he couldnt wait that long it needed to be sorted more quickly in just 5 weeks to be precise and to lord Cyril Radcliffe a british lawyer who had never set foot in india he was tasked with drawing a line between the most cohesive muslim and hindu Populated Areas just like mountbatten radcliff 2 found india not to his liking. It was impossible to undertake the field survey in june because of the heat so how does anyone whos not familiar with the situation on the ground decide where the border is going to be well studied the maps obviously its all in there the demographics the religious majority its also simple isnt it but the areas with the majority of muslims in pakistan and the hindus in india Problem Solved right if the aspirations of some people had not been fulfilled the fold must be found in political arrangements with which im not concerned the ratcliffe line was only revealed to the people the day before independence and. Scenes of celebration were replaced with fear and confusion as millions woke up on the wrong side of the border the partition and the radcliffe line led to unprecedented violence resulting in up to a 1000000 deaths so how did it all go wrong many areas had equal numbers of muslims and hindus radcliffe also didnt take the sikhs into account and he never even heard of kashmir. I was not even aware of kashmir i heard about it long after i returned to london both lord mountbatten and lord radclyffe made a swift exit from the heat leaving millions of people to deal with their quick and toxic solution for generations to come. All today in india controlled kashmir a Communications Blackout is being enforced making it very difficult if not impossible for people on either side of the disputed region to speak to each other india says it was put in place to curb potential violence and prevent the possibility of separatist rallies and we spoke to family unable to call their relatives on the indian side of the border. The modern set up since last march weve been unable to get ahold of our relatives in indian held kashmir but we keep trying the air is totally disconnected ive seen for myself this kind of atrocity back in 2010 when i went to india and how kashmir the situation was intense. We were dying to know their condition were concerned something isnt right we have no idea of they have food to Young Children are going hungry you. Know. And does it do that the whole time. And yes it is like this when they were trying to reach down we pray for them constantly our hearts are bleeding we just want to see them again. Kashmir is split into 3 parts of ministered by India Pakistan and china which also has claims to part of the territory tensions escalated recently after new delhi stripped india administered kashmir its only muslim majority state of its autonomy in august pakistan rejected the move saying it contravenes International Law and on tuesday indias lead in their andhra modi announced the kashmir region would get a Development Boost including Foreign Investment he says the region is to be made prosperous and negotiations are already underway meanwhile indias top Court Ordered the federal government to restore normal life in kashmir as soon as possible well some regional analysts whether blackouts in the other severe measures were necessary in kashmir. Exceptional Situation Requires exceptional measures and. Implementers im sure the government will vote month see you know very sharp bit of pain is on with its really a lot of things here when the relaxed one example is hospitals are open most of the day i think is open to public and the maryland connections are as well of course some restrictions are there and should in due course of brain those instructions would also be removed so those who are gay will be released in the hoodie dupers are very little except those who have some criminal charges or charges against them and the cases are going against them when they hear sports clearly the some of the confusion and the restrictions on the Communications Restrictions especially on. Telephone and on internet are working because a lot of the cross border terrorist attacks have happened through coordination or were these means and also through. And other such things which are not you know which are encrypted and not easy to crack for the intelligence agencies so i think some of the restrictions will remain but 90 more than 90 percent of Kashmir Valley which is a muslim majority part of june 1 kashmiri are already did time. Dictions have been lifted and landline telephones are actually working and i know of my own friends there who have been able to communicate with me to landlines so its not that theyre completely isolated or theres a daughter blackout but gradually i think as the security situation improves i think most of these really believed it still to come teen activists kreta thrown back has again been making headlines well have that story and more after this short break. Yeah b. O. C. Exit from its happening as big countries accumulate big positions and goal thats an exit from. Because we know that over the past 300 years no fia body has survived.

Supreme Court JusticeBrett Kavanaugh has been previewed in the New York Times but the paper is facing a backlash for apparently taking things out of context and has been reading between the lines. If youre kind of sick of hearing the same story all over again like the president called this or that media nothing but junk or youre glad you havent heard the name brand cavanaugh and something related to his genitals for a while im really sorry i dont think theyll do it but they should for the good of the nation i call for the resignation of everybody or to do york times involved i think.

A freshman named Brett Kavanaugh pulled down his pants interest his penis at her prompting her to swatted away and inadvertently touchett. The class to meet max tear some mr cameron with his pants down and a different drunken dream party where friends pushed his penis into to hand over a female student now that is gross if it fell on mr cavanaugh was really up to all that surely he must face severe consequences although for now these are just lines from a book not something put forward by the folks from the Justice Department but if you pick almost any one of the democratic president ial candidate lined up theyve made up their minds on what should be next for kavanaugh confirmation is not exoneration a
