( US News ) What's Behind Iran's Massive Anti-Government Protests - Duration: 9:01.

What's Behind Iran's Massive Anti-Government Protests

The largest protests to hit Iran in almost a decade have swept across the country in recent days, sparking violent retaliation from government forces.

U.S.

President Donald Trump's provocative tweets have further inflamed hostilities as Tehran's crackdown intensifies.  With a rising death toll and growing international attention, the anti-government demonstrations present an unpredictable challenge for Iranian authorities, who swiftly blamed the nation's "enemies." As the clashes threaten to drag into a second week, here's an outline of what's happening, and why.

What Are The Protests About? Protests erupted in Mashhad, Iran's second-largest city, on Thursday.

Hordes of Iranians took to the streets, angrily decrying dismal economic conditions, rising inflation and unemployment, and allegations of widespread corruption.

Protesters are disappointed by the limited economic improvement the nation experienced as a result of Iran's historic 2015 nuclear agreement with six other countries. After decades of diplomatic friction between Tehran and the West, Iran agreed to curb its nuclear program in exchange for relief from stifling economic sanctions.

President Hassan Rouhani, a key architect of the deal who was re-elected in May, promised it would revive the economy and create millions of jobs.

"The nuclear deal is overwhelmingly supported by the Iranian public, but there was an expectation that much more economic development would come out of it," Trita Parsi, president of the National Iranian American Council, told CNN.

In recent days, the demonstrations have spread to dozens of cities and towns, including the capital Tehran.

"The Iranian people's demands have been put off too long," a protestor identified only as Yaser told the BBC from the city of Talesh.

"None of the authorities have allowed a platform for these demands to be heard.

The protesters are decent, not saboteurs. .

They want jobs, an income and marriage.

No protester deserves a bullet." Stephanie Keith/Reuters Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has urged restraint from protesters and security forces.

How Is Tehran Responding? Iran's supreme leader, ultra-conservative cleric Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, blamed the chaos on Iran's foreign rivals.

"In recent days, enemies of Iran used different tools including cash, weapons, politics and intelligence apparatus to create troubles for the Islamic Republic," Khamenei, the country's highest-ranking authority, said in a statement on Tuesday.

At least 21 people, including members of Iran's security forces, have been killed in the demonstrations. Police have arrested more than 450 protesters in Tehran.

Authorities also have temporarily restricted access to certain social media channels, including Instagram and Telegram, a messaging app.

Rouhani, in a pre-recorded speech broadcast on state media Sunday, declared: "We are a free nation.

And according to the constitution and citizen rights, the people are free to express their criticism and even their protests." The president cautioned that "criticism should not be accompanied with violence or vandalizing public property." Chip Somodevilla via Getty Images U.S.

President Donald Trump has repeatedly expressed praise for the protests, sparking backlash from Iranian authorities.

The Trump Factor Tensions between Tehran and Washington have soured since Trump took office, and continue to worsen with the U.S.

president's support for the protests.

Trump has vowed to "tear up" the Iran nuclear deal, triggering international alarm, and moved to decertify it in October.

He could terminate the agreement later this month and reimpose sanctions on Tehran.

Trump, on Twitter, has praised the protests, and encouraged Rouhani's government to "respect their people's rights, including right to express themselves." His administration also urged Tehran to unblock the restricted social media sites.

Trump shared two video clips of his speech to the United Nations General Assembly in September, in which he called Tehran an "oppressive regime." "The people of Iran are finally acting against the brutal and corrupt Iranian regime," Trump tweeted Tuesday morning, warning, "The U.S.

is watching!" Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qasemi addressed Trump's remarks.

"Instead of wasting his time by publishing offensive tweets to other nations, Trump should focus on internal affairs of America," Qasemi said.

Trump "doesn't carry any credibility in Iran," the National Iranian American Council's Parsi said. "This is not about Trump, and Trump stepping into this is not necessarily helpful," Parsi told CNN.

Social Media / Reuters The protests have spread to dozens of Iranian towns and cities in a matter of days.

What's Next?  The demonstrations don't necessarily signal the beginnings of a revolution or coup, according to Reza Marashi, National Iranian American Council research director.

"As things currently stand, these protests more closely resemble a continuation of Iran's long-standing civil rights movement rather than an attempt to overthrow the government," Marashi recently wrote for HuffPost.

Marashi served in the U.S.

State Department's Office of Iranian Affairs in 2009, when Iran's Green Movement, a massive public display of discontent, unfolded in the wake of disputed elections.

"Political, economic, and social aspirations of the Iranian people have long been unmet – by the Islamic Republic, as well as its predecessors," Marashi said.

"Until these issues are addressed in a sustainable, comprehensive fashion, the gap between state and society will not fully heal."    .

( US News ) 6.9 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Near Papua New Guinea - Duration: 2:50.

6.9 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Near Papua New Guinea

USGS A powerful earthquake struck off an island near Papua New Guinea one month after a pair of deadly earthquakes shook the country.

A strong earthquake struck off the southern coast of Papua New Guinea's New Britain Island on Thursday, initially prompting tsunami warnings in the area.  The earthquake had a magnitude of 6.9, according to the U.S.

Geological Survey.  The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center initially issued a tsunami warning for the coasts of Papua New Guinea, though the threat had passed without incident nearly two hours later.  It is unclear if the earthquake caused any damage to the island.

#PTWC now forecasts hazardous #tsunami waves for some coasts in Papua New Guineahttps://t.co/QMc6ST9DZt — NWS PTWC (@NWS_PTWC) March 29, 2018 Papua New Guinea, north of Australia, is still recovering from a pair of deadly earthquakes that hit the country in recent weeks.

A magnitude 7.5 earthquake hit the country's highland region on Feb.

26, triggering powerful aftershocks, according to CNN.

The earthquake killed at least 67 people and left 500 others injured.

One week later, a magnitude 6.7 earthquake struck the country and killed at least 18 more people.

After the second earthquake, the International Red Cross said that as many as 143,000 people could have been affected by the disaster and 17,000 people have been displaced from their homes, Reuters reported.

OSLO (Reuters) - Norway has suspended exports of weapons and ammunition to the United Arab Emirates over concerns they could be used in the war in Yemen, the Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday.

The UAE is part of a Saudi-led coalition formed in 2015 to fight the Iran-aligned Houthi group that controls most of northern Yemen and the capital Sanaa, in a war that has killed more than 10,000 people and displaced more than 3 million.

While there is currently no evidence that Norwegian-made ammunition has been used in Yemen, there was a rising risk related to the UAE's military involvement there, the ministry said.

Existing export permits had been temporarily revoked and no new licenses would be issued under the current circumstances, Norway said.

In 2016, Norwegian exports of weapons and ammunition to the UAE rose to 79 million Norwegian crowns ($9.7 million) from 41 million in 2015, Statistics Norway data showed.

( US News ) Report: Russian Tankers Fueled North Korea - Duration: 8:50.

Report: Russian Tankers Fueled North Korea

620   39.

LONDON/MOSCOW, Dec 29 - Russian tankers have supplied fuel to North Korea on at least three occasions in recent months by transferring cargoes at sea, according to two senior Western European security sources, providing an economic lifeline to the secretive Communist state.

The sales of oil or oil products from Russia, the world's second biggest oil exporter and a veto-wielding member of the United Nations Security Council, breach U.N.

sanctions, the security sources said.

The transfers in October and November indicate that smuggling from Russia to North Korea has evolved to loading cargoes at sea since Reuters reported in September that North Korean ships were sailing directly from Russia to their homeland.

"Russian vessels have made ship-to-ship transfers of petrochemicals to North Korean vessels on several occasions this year in breach of sanctions," the first security source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Reuters.

A second source, who independently confirmed the existence of the Russian ship-to-ship fuel trade with North Korea, said there was no evidence of Russian state involvement in the latest transfers.

"There is no evidence that this is backed by the Russian state but these Russian vessels are giving a lifeline to the North Koreans," the second European security source said.

The two security sources cited naval intelligence and satellite imagery of the vessels operating out of Russian Far Eastern ports on the Pacific but declined to disclose further details to Reuters, saying it was classified.

Russia's Foreign Ministry and the Russian Customs Service both declined to comment when asked on Wednesday if Russian ships had supplied fuel to North Korean vessels.

The owner of one ship accused of smuggling oil to North Korea denied any such activity.

The latest report came as China, responding on Friday to criticism from U.S.

President Donald Trump, denied it had illicitly shipped oil products to North Korea.

North Korea relies on imported fuel to keep its struggling economy functioning.

It also requires oil for its intercontinental ballistic missile and nuclear program that the United States says threatens the peace in Asia.

"The vessels are smuggling Russian fuel from Russian Far Eastern ports to North Korea," said the first security source, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Reuters was unable to independently verify that the vessels had transferred fuel to North Korean vessels, whether the Russian state knew about the sales or how many Russian vessels were involved in the transfers.

It was also unclear how much fuel may have been smuggled.

Ship satellite positioning data consulted by Reuters and available on Reuters Eikon shows unusual movements by some of the Russian vessels named by the security sources including switching off the transponders which give a precise location.

The security sources said the Russian-flagged tanker Vityaz was one vessel that had transferred fuel to North Korean vessels.

The Vityaz left the port of Slavyanka near Vladivostok in Russia on Oct.

15 with 1,600 tonnes of oil, according to Russian port control documents.

Documents submitted by the vessel's agent to the Russian State Port Control authority showed its destination as a fishing fleet in the Japan Sea.

Shipping data showed the vessel switched off its transponder for a few days as it sailed into open waters.

According to the European security sources, the Vityaz conducted a ship-to-ship transfer with the North Korean Flagged Sam Ma 2 tanker in open seas during October.

Reuters could not independently verify the transfer as ship tracking data showed that the Sam Ma 2 had turned off its transponder from the start of August.

The owner of the Russian vessel denied any contact with North Korean vessels but also said it was unaware that the vessel was fueling fishing boats.

Yaroslav Guk, deputy director of the tanker's owner, Vladivostok-based Alisa Ltd, said the vessel had no contacts with North Korean vessels.

"Absolutely no, this is very dangerous," Guk told Reuters by telephone.

"It would be complete madness." When contacted a second time, Guk said the vessel did not have any contacts with North Korean ships and that he would not answer further questions.

An official at East Coast Ltd, the vessel's transport agent, declined to comment.

Two other Russian flagged tankers made similar journeys between the middle of October and November, leaving from the ports of Slavyanka and Nakhodka into open seas where they switched off their transponders, shipping data showed.

In September, Reuters reported that at least eight North Korean ships that left Russia loaded with fuel this year headed for their homeland despite declaring other destinations, a ploy that U.S.

officials say is often used to undermine sanctions.

A Russian shipping source with knowledge of Far Eastern marine practices said North Korean vessels had stopped loading fuel in Russia's Far Eastern ports but that fuel is delivered at sea by tankers using ship-to-ship transfers, or even by fishing vessels.

China on Friday denied reports it has been illicitly selling oil products to North Korea, after Trump said he was not happy that China had allowed oil to reach the isolated nation.

The United States has proposed that the United Nations Security Council blacklist 10 ships for transporting banned items from North Korea, according to documents seen by Reuters this month.

The vessels are accused of "conducting illegal ship-to-ship transfers of refined petroleum products to North Korean vessels or illegally transporting North Korean coal to other countries for exports," the United States said in its proposal.

( US News ) Trump Administration Should Freeze Rather Than Inflame Korean Tensions - Duration: 7:49.

Trump Administration Should Freeze Rather Than Inflame Korean Tensions

Woohae Cho via Getty Images.

War appears to be a greater possibility in the Korean peninsula today than at any recent time.

President Donald Trump insists he will not allow North Korea to acquire the capability to target the U.S.

homeland.

Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un refuses to abandon a project he apparently believes to be necessary to guarantee his regime's survival.

The problem of intention is exacerbated by the threat of mistake and misjudgment.

Two impulsive blustery leaders of uncertain temperament are facing off.

With threats flying, military forces moving, and WMDs testing, much could go wrong.

Yet President Trump appears to be doubling down on his strategy of maximum military pressure.

He continues to threaten war and send U.S.

carrier groups and bombers to Northeast Asia to demonstrate Washington's resolve.

American and South Korean forces recently conducted military maneuvers.

The allies insisted that "Vigilant Act 18" was merely a standard, annual exercise.

But it came at an unusually sensitive time.

The administration apparently presumes that Pyongyang is not aware of American military power.

But it is. The U.S.

armed services are the strongest argument for the North to develop nuclear weapons and ICBMs.

At the end of the Korean War there was little left in North Korea to bomb.

When I first visited the Democratic People's Republic of Korea 25 years ago officials commented that they had to completely rebuild Pyongyang.

America's capacity to destroy is much greater today.

Then, at least, China came to the DPRK's rescue.

But today the North could not count on similar aid.

Beijing might act to preempt an American advance to the Yalu.

Not, however, intervene to preserve the Kim dynasty, especially if the latter bore at least some responsibility for starting the war.

Russia would be even less inclined to act.

Nor does Pyongyang only fear conflict arising from the peninsula itself.

Since the end of the Cold War the U.S.

has routinely targeted regimes it dislikes: Panama, Somalia, Haiti, Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq (twice), Syria, and Libya.

The latter is particularly striking: Moammar Ghadaffy made a deal with the U.S.

and Europe to abandon his nuclear and missile programs, only to be ousted when the allies found it to be convenient.

For North Korea the assurances of Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who doesn't even speak for this president, let alone a future one, are of little value.

So the DPRK is aware that America has substantial military power and is willing to use it.

The chief danger now may be that Pyongyang will believe the Trump administration is preparing to act when it is not.

When I again visited North Korea in June, officials were particularly concerned about Washington's intentions.

Other presidents have affirmed their willingness to take military action.

President Trump has made the threat repeatedly.

He has ramped up the rhetoric, talking of delivering "fire and fury," and repeatedly sent U.S.

military forces, which he once referred to as the "armada," to threaten the North.

His officials, as well as militaristic members of Congress, such as Sen.

Lindsey Graham, have spoken of the almost inevitability of war unless the DPRK surrenders to Washington's demands.

It is difficult to know what Pyongyang — or America's allies, for that matter — make of the administration's plans.

But to the extent to which North Korean officials take the president's rhetoric and actions seriously, they are likely to perceive a heightened threat of war.

And that is likely to make the DPRK trigger-happy.

While U.S.

officials are talking about a preventive war, which differs from preemption in the lack of any imminent threat, the North is likely to consider the need for actual preemption.

North Korea's problem is that the U.S.

and South Korea possess vastly superior conventional capabilities.

And allowing America to take the initiative, and especially to build up beforehand, would be suicidal.

Of Saddam Hussein's many mistakes, perhaps the greatest was to stand idle as the United States deployed its forces in preparation for war.

Thanks Mindy...

And finally today we have a little comedy video, something called Bizarre Foods.

One of our crew, Darin, quickly went to the nearest store, and found something for people

to try, with those trying the food, not knowing what it is.

It could've been anything.

Sounds interesting.

You bet it is.

Now, let's show the reactions of two people.

Roll the clip please!

(Charlie: I can't find it.

That's disgusting.

What is that?)

(Darin: Wanna drink the juice?)

(Charlie: No!)

(Marco: Did it come in a can?)

(Darin: Maybe) (Marco: Smells like a olive.)

(Darin: There's a trash can to your left if you need to vomit.

What're your thoughts?)

(Marco: It's disgusting.)

I hear that stuff is pretty strong.

Yeah, definitely a surprise if you're not expecting it.

If you want something equally surprising, go visit out website J-D-H-S Video DOT org...

And also follow us on twitter for even more surprises.

Join us again next week, thanks for tuning in.

Of the 89 arrested, 67 had criminal convictions; 88 men and one woman were arrested.

They range in age from 19 to 60 years old.

Aliens arrested during this operation are from the following 10 countries: Mexico (59),

Guatemala (12), Honduras (8), Colombia (3), Nigeria (2), El Salvador (1), Laos (1), Nicaragua

(1), Pakistan (1) and Vietnam (1).

Most of the aliens targeted by ERO deportation officers during this operation had prior criminal

Twenty three of those arrested illegally re-entered the United States after having been previously

deported, which is a felony.

Depending on an alien's criminality, an alien who re-enters the United States after

having been previously deported commits a felony punishable by up to 20 years in federal

prison, if convicted.

The following are criminal summaries of five offenders arrested in North Texas and Oklahoma

during this operation:

March 20: A 45-year-old citizen of Guatemala, was arrested at Mesquite, Texas.

He was convicted of sexual assault in 1991 and was sentenced to 10 years deferred probation.

He had been previously removed from the United States, and illegally re-entered, which is

a felony.

He will be processed for removal from the United States and presented to the U.S. Attorney's

Office for re-entry after deportation.

March 20: A 27-year-old citizen of Vietnam was arrested at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Following his convictions for Rape 2, and two counts of indent/lewd acts with child

for each count.

He remains in ICE custody pending an immigration hearing before a federal immigration judge.

March 20: A 28-year-old illegal alien from Mexico and confirmed gang member was arrested

at Fort Worth, Texas.

He was convicted of making a terroristic threat in 2013 and was sentenced to 6 months' probation.

He will be processed for removal from the United States and presented to the U.S. Attorney's

Office for re-entry after deportation.

March 21: A 28-year-old citizen of Mexico was arrested at Lancaster, Texas.

He is currently wanted by authorities in Hidalgo, Mexico, for homicide based on a 2009 arrest

warrant.

He also was convicted in Texas for driving while intoxicated.

He remains in ICE custody pending an immigration hearing before a federal immigration judge.

"This North Texas and Oklahoma operation removed 67 criminal aliens from our streets

and our communities," said Simona L. Flores, field office director of ERO Dallas.

"In addition to this valuable community service, our ICE officers also help maintain

the integrity of our immigration laws."

The Dallas area of responsibility includes 128 counties in North Texas and Oklahoma.

All of the targets in this operation were amenable to arrest and removal under the U.S.

Immigration and Nationality Act.

ICE deportation officers carry out targeted enforcement operations daily nationwide as

part of the agency's ongoing efforts to protect the nation, uphold public safety,

and protect the integrity of our immigration laws and border controls.

These operations involve existing and established Fugitive Operations Teams.

During targeted enforcement operations, ICE officers frequently encounter other aliens

illegally present in the United States.

These aliens are evaluated on a case-by-case basis, and, when appropriate, they are arrested

by ICE officers.

HELL YEAH!

BOOT THESE ILLEGAL SCUMBAGS OUT AND KEEP THEM OUT!
