The Syrian Opposition has released the list of demands ahead of u. N. Brokered peace talks later this month and wants to see confidence leading steps from damascus and release of arbitrarily detained people and calling for immediate hold to bombardment of cities and towns by heavy artillery and jets and also wants to make sure there is inhindered access to those in desperate need of aid and we have the founder who specialized in syria and the gulf region and is questioning if talks can take place while fighting is still going on. The peace talks were pretty much in intensive care anyway and i think they are probably flat lining now. The opposition cant go to the table while such carnage and starvation taking place on the ground and are not new demands and the closer to the crisis of last year and the opposition has organized itself and riyadh conference last month shows it is possible for independence and faction and rebel leaders as well as the political coalitions to come together and form a platform and they have been organizing over the last few days in order to get ready for those talks at the end of the month but how can they go to the table when the situation on the ground is so divorced from the reality or the unreality of what will take place in geneva.

Tensions rose after the kingdom executed a shia cleric. Diplomatic editor james base is at the u. N. Headquarters in new york. Reporter diplomates are obviously concerned because you have heavy weights in the middle east with strained relations and now there is a new low. Having said that i suspect they will be slightly heartened by saudi ambassador saying there will be no effect in his countrys view about peace efforts with regard to syria and yemen. The break in relations between saudi and iran what effect will it have on peace efforts in syria and in yemen . From our side it should have no effect because we will continue to work very hard towards supporting the peace efforts in syria, in yemen, wherever there might be a need for that. How is that going to affect the behavior of iran we do not know. You would need to ask the iranians on that. But the irans before diplomatic reactions have not been very supportive and positive in these peace efforts. They have been taking provocative and negative positions and as such i dont think the break in relations is going to dissuaded them from such behavior. Reporter despite those comments the United Nations know that both iran and saudi arabia are key players in both these conflicts and that is why the u. N. Envoy for syria is in riyadh and going on to tehran and in the next few days the envoy for yemen will also be visiting the region.

We took video through a window of people prepping food but were not allowed into this kitchen.

We want to be polite and neighborly and want to be citizens, we want to be respectful of one another. Reporter he is an arizona rancher who emerged as one of the groups main spokesman.

I wouldnt say words would do it. I would say action would. And that would be for the federal government to remove its unconstitutional presence here in the county. I want to talk directly to the people at the wildlife refuge and you said you were here to help the citizens of the county and it ended when a peaceful protest became an occupation and they turned themselves in and its time for you to leave your community and go home to your families and end this peacefully. Reporter so far lots of talking but no serious action as the protest that started saturday continues. Allen with al jazeera, near burns, oregon.

First we have been telling you about the shaky chinese stock market and making other markets nervous and lets look at what happened and after years of rapid growth china was the worlds second biggest economy and the growth meant it had demand for Raw Materials supporting countries around the world and china is maturing into a developed market and growth is slowing and means the appetite for raw goods has shrunk and the rest of the world is worried who will buy their exports and things may not be as serious as you may think and the Chinese Government has foreign reserves and 3 trillion to spend on another stimulus to boost its economy and lets speak to a financial analyst and saw volatility in the stock market in the past two days and what does it tell you about investors confidence in the Chinese Market and also the chinese economy . There are concerns as you said about the slowing chinese economy. We had some manufacturing pmi data that yesterday that was weaker than expected and that was one of the reasons for the route, the 7 decline in the shanghai market but also we saw big falls in the summer if you remember in july and august and at that time the government instituted a number of measures to stop the stock market falling and those measures come to an end or are scheduled to come to an end at the end of this week and i think that is also causing great concern for chinese investors. And what does this mean for the Global SentimentGoing Forward and into 2016 . What is interesting is most financial ex pr period of time expect of the stock market and china concerns should be quite muted and for example here in the uk if you look at direct exports to china they are small and its all the indirect effect that are doing harm and causing nervousness because nobody really know because as long as we can remember china has grown phenomenonly fast 8, 9, 10, 15 growth a year and that slowed to 7 but, in fact, there is so many question marks about the quality of chinese Economic Data one fears that even the sort of 7 that the government says its growing at is overly optimistically high and china could be growing a lot slower than that or at least that is what the commodity market and the fall of the price of oil would tell you. Speaking of the Chinese Government how do you assess the way that the officials have handled the situation so far . We did see responses by the Chinese Government. Well, one of the reasons why the Chinese Market actually traded slightly firmer today because its rumored the Chinese Government with chinese institutions go out and buy shares in our stock market today. Now that happened in the past in america. If you look at the Great Depression jp morgan famously did the same thing but what stock markets need is full information and the falls to happen in an orderly manner and for the markets not to be manipulated and that is exactly what the Chinese Government has done. Its a communist organization that likes to control the flow of information and that does not work for the ultimate capitalist stock market. It just doesnt work so there are many Global Investors who look at china and what the government is doing and it makes them very, very nervous. All right, thank you very joining us on the news hour.

Problem is i got a lot of information by telephone call, by Video Conference and got indications that a situation on the ground is worsening so therefore im interested to see by myself the situation there in order to mitigate it of problems experienced by the palestinian whose human rights were violated and they are disappointed and according to him it should be universal and to all parties to the conflict, not only the violation on human right but also to the palestinian violation of human rights and this is not my responsibility. This is given to me. If they chase this maybe they can fight in the human right council and try to convince others to do this.
