non war in iraq sort of looks like the makings of a soon to be new war in iraq several rockets hit near an american oil field in iran last week it was followed by a volley from the united states against iranian assets iraq which is caught in the middle of all this says it wants the united states troops out. r.t. correspondent john hardy picks up the story. while the fight against the coronavirus worldwide continues another fight also continues to brew in the middle east between the united states and iran with iraq remaining the most likely battlefield last week 5 rockets were fired at an american oil company working near basra u.s. workers had already left the area it's unclear who was behind the attack but on april 1st president trouble warned that his administration received intelligence that iran or one of its proxies was planning a strike on u.s. forces in iraq tweeting that if u.s. troops are attacked quote iran will pay a very heavy price indeed now the u.s. has offered $10000000.00 for information on hezbollah commander sheikh mohammed qahtani who was a close associate friend and

to form a last government and to move towards energy self-sufficiency iraq relies heavily on iran to surprise its great. workers desperate for money and $1.00 of the world's biggest garment industries are defying coronavirus lockdown orders they're returning to work in bangladesh saying they haven't been paid for months countries expects to lose at least $6000000000.00 worth of exports to make up for some of it textile workers are saying mosques medical grounds and other in demand a personal protective equipment i guess has recorded more than 5400 current of r.'s cases and 145 deaths time a challenger is following developments from the capital dhaka. the prime minister has a stimulus package of $588000000.00 now this was promised some time back many of the work has been protesting for the last several days many haven't been paid for months some are on the brink of starvation now they've been asked to join some of the factories that lets 1000 plus factories are opening all across the country is in a limited way. because they're under pressure from international buyers to fulfill their

mostly by confirmation that iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction and that iraq was far weaker than anyone in the administration had imagined. building democracy and undertaking nation building were embraced as goals, mostly after it became clear that iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction. now by 2006 and early 2007, when the surge took place, it seems that the new goal was to bring about a democratic iraq that could, quote, governor itself, defend itself and sustain itself, end quote. yet, in the interviews quoted in this book and in the essays there is little discussion really of how democratization and nation building related to overall u.s. capabilities and strategic interests both regionally and globally. at one point megan o'sullivan said to steve hadley in the decision-making process, i can't write a paper about an emerging consensus because, quote, actually nobody agrees with anybody about even foundational issues, end quote. i do not see the foundational issues ill loose inated in a way. perhaps they were addressed. i'm not saying they weren't addressed. perhap

for this i mean look at the huge pressures that are being put on not only jordan but on lebanon on iraq on iran all of them part of a process to make agreed to terms and to agree to this project i mean it's it's it's a project it's an. empire project it's only in phase one but these of the subsequent faces and that people are feeling this precious and i think it's having a huge impact on the middle east because i've just been back to visiting a number of states and europe everyone has depended on what they call holding the middle of the stick. only those no middle of the stick left because he. trump has polarized it into what little ground has gone let's talk about trying because the i've been asked this so many times that trump under the trumpet ministration essentially is recognizing the annexation of the west bank up to the jordan river the goal on. the us is recognized the moving of the embassy to jerusalem trying to up my thesis is this true doesn't because there's no downside for him politically to do it for him. you know as a politician and as someone who's running for reelection

in 2002 and 2003, when the administration invaded iraq, the bowls were to rig iraq of weapons of mass destruction. and bring about regime regime change. the goal was to make sure that the iraqi government would not hand off weapons of mass destruction to terrorist groups with global ambitions. the goal in 2003, was to make sure that iraq would not be a threat to its neighbors. those were the goals. and those goals, however inevitably, actually had been achieved by the end of 2003. mostly by confirmation that iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction, and that iraq was far weaker than anyone and the administration had imagined. building democracy and undertaking nation, were embraced as goals mostly after it became clear that iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction. by 2006 in early 2007, when the search took place, it seems that the new goal was to bring about a democratic iraq that could, quote govern itself, defend itself, and sustain itself. and quote. yet, in the interviews quoted in this book and in the essays, there is little discussion, really of how democratization a

and stop intervening and destroying libya in iraq syria afghanistan yemen ok so let me ask you this about people in tehran clearly u.s. sanctions have made things worse but what about the iranian government actual response which many would say also many the coronavirus crisis much worse much more deadly for your country for example the deputy health minister at the outset publicly opposed quarantines he said there were ancient medieval things and he started out while he was coughing and sweating at a press conference i think the very next day it was just the political code 19 the iranian government refused to shut down flights between china and iran for weeks because they didn't want to wreck relations with the chinese government iranian officials repeatedly play down the numbers of cases in iran in places like you can't just blame us sanctions for the situations in iran right now surely that needs to be some recognition of syria's government trailers in tehran to come on me iran got its 1st kid i think on february the 17th and on february the 19th they discovered their 1st case and

opening in iraq absolutely right i plan to get into. what happened. to me to. my joint is. why patrolling trying. to kill and for me. and i we flew back when i'm out that money. to. begin to flow in and learn the truth now. and then. and then big lesson to move on to. well now i need to lead. inequalities. and you know when our returning and since trying to 15. 1000 years. ago wasn't. why that the things that i didn't actually were saying i'm the magazines i was. at a total well isn't it just packed management agency but think about developments in technology when is it so that it is to be there listening to later wanted to ask them when they're. needed t.n.g. by the event of a fee. on a summer stock. and women are in their rounds. because an m.b.a. even she lacks understand that there is. of course there's a moment and say here are cool. and understanding is as i've been shake. my. hand. as if to solicit on. whom it was named one. who initially comes from m.s.n. i take it as they we're an energy and someone asked us so here. are. it was them summons him. always a way. i'm

the first iraq war an exception? the first iraq war was not an exception because most scholars who study wars, will say that for their to be a war there must be a conflict that must is going on for a year or more or a thousand people are killed yearly. that conflict were 30 or more nations help the united states expel iraq from kuwait was an initial success. but what happened was the success was short-lived. two things happened. general schwarzkopf a graduate of west point allowed saddam hussein to retain some of his helicopters. use those helicopters to drop chemical weapons on the kurds. they were great allies of the united states all along. because general swarts cough, these are his words not mine, they were snookered by the iraqis they were able to continue to do to their people what they were doing prior to their involvement in kuwait. nothing really changed. they just expelled from kuwait. and, interestingly enough, when the administration in 2003 argued to go into iraq, that use the fact that saddam hussein w

it wasn't just iraq, it was iraq and israel and palestine. as it played out at the time. and finally, powell posted the human and once again, and irony here, powell's people and himself, they get asked by bush to give the speech explaining why we are going to work. he takes a job, he takes it on himself, here's what he's afraid of. bush is looking for the rationale, there's one time six months earlier where cheney sa says, what is our reason? this is a problem for the bush administration all the way through, should be a problem now. but by the end of december, the cia comes to him with evidence and they have the deputy director give a presentation and it falls flat. he says is lousy. he assigned to people on his staff, one is cheney's to draft a memo explaining why to go to work. that sitting there and bush decide powell should get this presentation so what comes to him with this memo and that's the main thing he supposed to work from and he says he's obsessed with not wanting to take that so that's his entire focus, he's got six days to prepare for this speech. he goes o

the axis of evil is iraq, iran, north korea. brian: let me run seven seconds of a statement of george w. bush's of that interview. >> they are asking did i make a mistake in the liberation of iraq? the answer is no i didn't make a mistake in my judgment. brian: comment? james: yes, he made a huge mistake. to the extent that bush has admitted mistakes, he admits tactical mistakes that were central to the war without ever saying that the entire war in iraq was a mistake. so we can talk, the mistakes he has admitted, he admitted he made a mistake in the mission accomplished landing on an aircraft carrier, and he admitted, and others have admitted, that the way they handled the post-war was a mistake by allowing the disbanding of the iraqi army, the expulsion of the party members from government decisions. it is true that he has never said the war in iraq itself was not a mistake. in fact, what you saw a right there is i guess, he doesn't believe it yet but i think that is profoundly wrong. brian: in your book, you wrote a whole boo

led invasion of iraq and yet the consequences of this are deadly consequences people are still living with every day in iraq it's very easy to talk your way into a war that any hard to win to maintain and build peace afterwards what concerns me about a lot of the treaties as bit they have proven themselves to be just words and that when push comes to shove it is state interests which should be in the driving agenda russia's military spending group has coincided with an increasingly aggressive foreign policy for example and these do need to be reined in but they need to be arraigned and by a political will and a desire to do so and we do need to see international solutions but what has to happen at will now as well peter are a lack of effective international treaties helping to to add to this increase in spending you think. i think it's certainly one thing one can say you are the minority see how your arms control is no longer very high on your gen that there is still attempts to come to some sort of arms but it's very hard to achieve not talk about the arms control in which for exampl

it happened again when we left prematurely in iraq an iraq andd happen again afghanistan. >> i wasn't a fan of going in the first place. i was very much not a fan of leaving as we did in 2011 if we had a bet they're probably wouldn't be an ice is in the form that we found we would have to go back and. the trump administration may be about to make the mistake the obama administration made. i want to come back to that. don't let me forget to come back to that. let's go through the options in the book. i want to start with a. it is going to happen and we try to make the most of it so addressing these steps we decided to the extent the global primacy over the past 70 years or so is an example of the historical phenomenon of the entire like any other we are going to decline we just have to deal with the bat an that and gt landing was looking for a successor. i suggest in the book that isn't going to work. >> the office a president obama favored such managed decline. they are a lot more similar to each other than i would like to hear. but i do think the strategy to work that successor has t

and people like john mccain if you think after 9/11 and it happened again when we left prematurely in iraq. and then very much as we did in 2011. certainly not in the form that we found those that are about to make that identical mistake is the obama administration made in iraq. >> before we come back go to the options you sketch out very quickly. that i like to be able to say them on the air. [laughter] so just embrace the stock one - - it just means something unpleasant will happen and trying to make the most of it. so embracing the suck strategy that us global strategy is the example of an empire like any other empire and then to have a soft landing with a successor. >> and by the way when president obama favored such manage decline paradoxically and then to execute the obama strategy president trump and president obama but the problem here is for the strategy that has to be very interested in doing that that the chinese don't want to do with the russians can't do i it. >> and i think the basic ambiguity and contradiction a president trumps thinking on one hand he wants america to be gr

but meanwhile, there's iraq that's still out there. and the first sign you get of the administration thinking about going to war in iraq is in bush's state of the union address at the beginning of 2002 when he talks about the axis of evil, the axis of evil is iraq, iran and north korea. >> let me just run seven seconds of a statement of george w. bush at the interview during his book tour. >> they're asking did i make a mistake, for example, in the liberation of iraq. and the answer is no, i didn't make a mistake in my judgment. >> comment? >> yes, he made a huge mistake. to the extent that bush has admitted mistakes, he admits tactical mistakes that were central to the war without ever saying that the entire war in iraq was a mistake. so we can talk about -- i mean, the mistakes he's admitted, he's admitted that he made a mistake in the mission accomplished landing on an aircraft carrier and he's admitted and others have admitted that the way they handled the post war was a mistake by allowing the disbanding of the iraqi army, their e

have been confirmed and industrial facilities have been reopened despite this warning of assertions in iraq authorities have imposed a curfew leaving the streets of baghdad unusually quiet most public places have been closed and soldiers have been deployed to enforce the lockdown and in other news china has released a prominent human rights lawyer from jail rights groups say at one point jiang was secretly detained for 1200 days and then tried behind closed doors up to date with the headlines up front with the house on it's next. as the world battles the coronavirus pandemic we'll bring you the latest developments from my around the wound. with updates about travel restrictions and how to protect yourself. coronavirus pandemic special coverage on al-jazeera. welcome to a very special edition of upfront special because for the 1st time in this age of the coronavirus i'm recording it from my home on today show we'll discuss how brazil is handling or mishandling the crisis under its controversial president an hour i'll speak to one of the most high profile critics in the brazilian congress but

iran/iraq war. above all, the impact of the iran/iraq war is to make iranians very careful about their security, as john was mentioning, this is a major i impetus for iran reviving its nuclear program in the 1990s, eventually maybe a nuclear weapon we can use to deter an iraqi attack. of course, there's a friendly regime in power that, we put in power in baghdad, which iran is pretty happy with. but the iranians are still very concerned about their military security. of course, we shouldn't forget that the u.s. participated in the iran/iraq war in some ways, particularly enabled clashes in the gulf in the last year or two of the war. so, iranians look at iran/iraq war as also a reason to fear american power and they've taken all kinds of measures to prepare themselves to retaliate against the united states, and they'll use them. so it certainly did have a big impact, as much as world war ii did on the united states, i would say. >> the other really critical aspect of that, when you think about the n

and iraq. too most government he'd the call for many elements of the iraqis, bringing armed troops under control, and we welcome steps taken in that direction. moving to a second category, our mission to protect human rights and freedom around the world. i talked about this last week. we continue to monitor beijing's increasing efforts to interfere with hong kong's governance. the erosion of their freedoms in hong kong are inconsistent with the promises that the chinese made under one country, two systems. any effort to impose draconian national security legislation on hong kong would be inconsistent with their promises and would impact american interests there. back in our hemisphere, we have noticed how havana has taken advantage of the pandemic and will continue its exploitation of cuban medical workers. we applaud the leaders in brazil , and ecuador into bolivia who have refused to turn a blind eye to these abuses by the cuban regime, and have asked all countries to do the same, including p

so, there has been this recommendation at the very first meeting to attack iraq. why? because ... >> do you know who it came from? >> yes. it came from paul wolfowitz at that first meeting. and he does not get support from others there. first of all, if you can envision this meeting, it's the principals at a table, principals meaning members of the cabinet - it's cheney, rumsfeld, powell, condoleezza rice and wolfowitz is at a back bench. >> this is a recommendation from the second level and it is, again, shelved at the time. and during those two months while the war in afghanistan is being fought, a couple of noteworthy things happen. one is the anthrax scare. >> so, in what turns out to be something entirely unrelated to al qaeda as far as we know, people in washington and on capitol hill and so on are opening their mail and finding this powder which may or may not be anthrax, that further really scares the top levels of the administration. >> and i want to back up for a second there and say that the september 11th attacks had caught the administration in its - this

he took five tours in iraq, think about that. he had doubts about the war all along and yet he volunteered five times to go. i think he had more times in iraq in this period than any other foreign service officer. after it was over he sent him to syria which sounded like it was going to be a home or maybe boring gauge and then immediately the war broke out and then the last person that i decided to focus on those chris stevens. you all probably know of him, he was the number two in the libya embassy before the civil war and then when the civil war broke out in 2011, washington needed somebody to go into libya to sneak into the kind of washington's eyes and ears on the ground, somebody that would figure out who the rebels were and try to find out who was important and what they needed to know about him. there is a lot o a lot of foreiy in the book but it's mostly about these four people and their struggles against the bad guys and their struggles against different local leaders and countries and some struggled with washington as y

the country where custody and children grow up with no future yet you see how i do in iraq how the ice had got me i'm sad and yet today tutoring. i said mrs simmons was so hot i got the letter no calls extend the hand of friendship. at a rally. in shut up there is only one school set up by the united nations honest opinions are not allowed to attend lebanese schools to children my god i'm this is. the only chance to learn even if what they really want is to be master. of say to them if you did why go out there and there was still me on my way of calling love. 000000000000000000000. you do not. know. who the wallet had one of the media oh what a fool some of you would do with a school with a. mock up look at a. concept that you. only presume children have you just marked are unique we have instructed people and you can more confirm they can use something in the future if given the chance to kate. snow doing their chances not to. breaking through genes at an early age. was it was worth it yes. yes i met you when you made was that you know a little less than. women and men do you know you

exile and i'm not just iraq. this president donald trump announces he will suspend the immigration saying he has to protect americans from coronavirus and save jobs. live from doha and i'm come out santa maria with the latest news from al-jazeera on the pandemic and its worsening financial fallout is for the 1st time in history u.s. oil prices have turned negative meaning some producers a paying customers to take stock of stock off their hands since turn positive again but investors around sold in asian markets have seen this steepest falls in a month. come back to lena stronger and fitter and the boss of australia's 2nd largest airline promises to reboot and stay in the sky after it collapses under the strain of corona. rollout to come but we'll start with donald trump's declaration that he will suspend immigration into the united states through an executive order he said it in a tweet that it was in response to the coronavirus pandemic referring to cover 19 as the invisible enemy added that he has to protect am

the room was full and i was stuck with a bunch of strangers who naturally had lots of questions so iraq set up quite quickly. oh i'm going to watch the more you push yourself and i'll come right back all right. so this is something you have lost all over you but i was looking for those who are here. now this is brilliantly and saying a farmer in china paid tribute to health workers by organizing thousands of chickens and special paddlings messages of support for doctors apparently it's 4 hours 4000 chickens and around 100 kilograms of chicken feed which was then scattered so encourage the chickens it's a position. where you poor baby don't want to bore you. if you want to watch some more video yeah. that's what some more videos. would have i got. he got you. he's a good noble. or. well. and here is another key one i got this from a classmate's he's in the u.k. and it says birthday but because no one can actually visit his family does the next best thing. when i'm not running well i don't think you know thank you. guys. i don't think it's holloway and if you thought missing a birthday pa

do much or didn't do enough in order to bring justice actually in iraq then he is in iraq we have no jurisdiction about those national krantz the people who are suspected to do. the crimes. under festus head would be seated according to and in germany we are lucky that there is this huge events and jurisdiction. they can use and actually because you know size and traffic with humanity is that you feel each state to commit because each state in this world has trying to the that you can set a convention so each state has to make a trial if there is a very stout about. the kind that is not inside. your heart if i can just jump in how is this cold case being viewed by the us cd community what are they saying to you. well fess up what do we with him which case we know it is not that enough but this is good stuff because we're working very important that you know that this equipment or so in the car station trail but what we are demanding is actually is an international court of either the court or an international court together with iraq with international community to all of these but.

and going to shoot her she's deputy director of the institute of iraq hospital here in berlin we asked him whether the government was being overoptimistic given the rising mortality rate i don't think so so far we don't have the exact number as the case fatality rate so the best estimates are point 40.6 and it could be that you know this virus is moving into retirement homes and then elderly people on fixed it with this novel coronavirus and that much more susceptible to the virus and may see more casualties then before. a clearer picture of what has happened in china since it lifted its lockdown is starting to emerge the death toll in the city where the virus 1st broke out has been revised upwards significantly and the economy has begun to shrunk for the 1st time since the communist leadership adopted free market reforms in the late 1970 s. . the lockdown may be lifting but the virus has left its mark for the 1st time in decades china's economy has plummeted people can return to work but with virtually no demand many businesses remain closed. car sales that 1st dropped then plummeted

invaded iraq, 2003. gradually in iraq tensions heated up between the u.s. and iran with the u.s. supporting various ethnic guerrilla and iran backing shiite militias in iraq that carried out many, many attacks against u.s. forces. so you could say there was really sort of a low level secret war playing out in iran at least in the last few years in the george bush administration, with hundreds killed on both sides. hundreds of american military personnel killed with iranian fingerprints on their weapons and hundreds killed in terrorist attacks that seemed to have been backed by the united states, although this is kind of murky. certainly the last seven years of the bush administration were a period of coercion and really the model of coercion that is out there today. finally that brings us to the obama administration with the failure of the bush administration to achieve much from its coercive efforts obama came into office wanting to pursue a different approach, engagement, and he made a series of preaches speeches in his fir and really tried very hard, but the iranians did not r

then you are asked to go into another war in iraq. you get in there and ultimately the fight is between the -- the fights between the sunnis and she has is more than anticipated. what do you think was the mistake that was made or what could have been done better in hindsight? gen. mattis: it is interesting to look back and hindsight, but let me tell you what looked like and foresight. ,e are in a very hot summer 2003, and iraq has fallen. one of my briefs one day, a young officer briefing said by the way, the enemy is picking this up that we will somehow disband the iraqi army. we were bringing the iraqis back into the barracks, we were starting to pay them and talk with them about we were not here to occupy or humiliate you, you worked for a jerk and he is gone and you will be the new iraqi army. i dismissed it as idle gossip and said let's get on with the brief. the next day i walk in and everybody is quiet in this cavernous palace we had taken over and a lieutenant has a piece of paper for me. "the iraqi army is disbanded," the fir

but then you are asked to go into another war in iraq. you get in there and ultimately the fights between the sunnis and the shiites turned out to be much more than anybody anticipated. as you look back at the political problems that arose in iraq subsequent to saddam hussein being captured, what do you think was the mistake that was made, or what could have been done better in hindsight? gen. mattis: it is interesting to get the question look back in hindsight, but let me tell you what it looked like in foresight. we are in a very hot summer, 2003, and iraq has fallen. one of my briefs one day, a young officer who was briefing said, by the way, the enemy is picking this up that somehow we are going to disband the iraqi army. we were just bringing the iraqis back into the barracks, we were starting to pay them, trying to talk with them that we were not here to occupy or humiliate you, you work for a jerk, he is gone, you are going to be the new iraqi army. i dismissed it as idle gossip and said let's get on with the brief. the next day i

as negotiations to form the new government continue iraq appears rather less as it tries to steer its way through a deepening political economic and health crisis iraqis are angry at the political class for not acting class enough as if they keep going with their conflicts we want this we want that there will never be a government because all these parties. they want to fill the post with one of their own and there's a growing feeling that caretaker prime minister of the mahdi may weather this political storm on the top that makes they want to appoint a new prime minister they will prolong this crisis and keep. in power because he pleases everyone and in march of the he said he'd no longer act as caretaker but has never done less continued to chair government meetings the protests that forced his resignation have all but gone away as the country battles the coronavirus pandemic and with that the prospects for systemic political change are growing increasingly thin simona fulton al-jazeera but that. this is al-jazeera these are the top stories 6600000 americans lost their jobs in the p
