:09:04. > :09:09.picture of what happened in San Bernardino becoming clear, if you
:09:10. > :09:18.can catch that this time? UEFA you know what, the FBI has gone into the
:09:19. > :09:20.conference room here. It is trying to piece together what actually
:09:21. > :09:28.happened in that attack, just under one week ago. They are undergoing
:09:29. > :09:32.some kind of time frame picture reconstruction at the moment, trying
:09:33. > :09:39.to pinpoint exactly what happened and when. It has also emerged, just
:09:40. > :09:44.in the last year, people in this building also underwent a training
:09:45. > :09:49.exercise intended to prepare them for just this kind of eventuality.
:09:50. > :09:54.We do not know whether one of the gun men in this attack was actually
:09:55. > :09:58.part of that exercise. But the FBI said that it had interviewed about
:09:59. > :10:04.400 people since the attack last week, collecting 380 pieces of
:10:05. > :10:08.evidence, many of which are being analysed at their headquarters on

:10:16. > :10:19.Bernardino, California. Bruce Orwall, the bureau chief of
:10:20. > :10:21.the Wall Street Journal's London office says Mr Trump's comments may
:10:22. > :10:29.have been a tactical move. You have to remember this statement
:10:30. > :10:35.came out some hours after he was shown to be behind in the polls in
:10:36. > :10:40.the crucial state of Iowa, where the sweepstakes kick-off. It could be
:10:41. > :10:45.trying to distinguish himself among Republican rivals of which there are
:10:46. > :10:49.a lot, 12 or 14 at last count rather than playing to the broader
:10:50. > :10:54.populace. But it still carries an enormous amount of risk to go ahead
:10:55. > :10:58.with a sweeping statement like that. If that is the intention it seems to
:10:59. > :11:04.be working because it puts Ted Cruz in the lead. But who are people
:11:05. > :11:09.talking about? Not him. I suppose it is true that it is better to be
:11:10. > :11:14.mentioned than not. But there is a long game to play on a big statement
:11:15. > :11:18.like that. It will put a lotta people in a precarious situation
:11:19. > :11:22.where other Republican candidates will be under pressure to distance
:11:23. > :11:28.themselves from Donald Trump if he emerges as the nominee of the party
:11:29. > :11:32.in a few months. It could make it more difficult for him to solicit
:11:33. > :11:35.support from other party members. What do you think of the support we
:11:36. > :11:41.are hearing from what Donald Trump is saying? You have to understand I
:11:42. > :11:45.think we have a bit of a global perspective. It is not just a US
:11:46. > :11:49.phenomenon. In Europe we have seen the last couple of years support on
:11:50. > :11:54.the immigration issue drifting, sometimes
:11:55. > :11:57.the immigration issue drifting, right-wing parties, preaching this
:11:58. > :12:00.message. It happened after the Charlie Hebdo attacks in
:12:01. > :12:01.message. It happened after the earlier this year. Then we had the
:12:02. > :12:08.big migration wave which earlier this year. Then we had the
:12:09. > :12:12.lot of support to those parties. And now after the more recent Paris
:12:13. > :12:16.attacks for example, the National party in France is doing
:12:17. > :12:19.attacks for example, the National in the regional elections under way
:12:20. > :12:23.there. And may have unprecedented power. It is not necessarily an
:12:24. > :12:33.unusual cards to play. We will bring you what we are
:12:34. > :12:36.hearing from the defence Ministry in Russia. The military has launched a
:12:37. > :12:42.barrage of air and missile strikes in Syria and notably for the first
:12:43. > :12:47.time it has launched a new cruise missile from a submarine. The
:12:48. > :12:54.Minister said that the cruise missile was launched in the
:12:55. > :13:00.Mediterranean and successfully hit its designated target. Bombers have
:13:01. > :13:06.also taken part in the latest raids, 60 sorties in the last three days.
:13:07. > :13:10.For the first time the Russians are saying that they have launched an
:13:11. > :13:13.attack on targets in Syria from a submarine. We will bring you more
:13:14. > :13:18.details on that as we get them. Reports
:13:19. > :13:21.from Iraq say government forces have recaptured a key district
:13:22. > :13:24.in the city of Ramadi, which was seized by the so-called Islamic

:14:56. > :14:58.and the richer in a unified platform. They are clear about what
:14:59. > :15:02.they want with a legally binding deal. They want transparency, some
:15:03. > :15:06.money has been put into it by the European Union. It is sending a
:15:07. > :15:09.positive signal to the rest of the talks for the other teams and
:15:10. > :15:18.negotiators that a deal can be done. Well into week two. What is the
:15:19. > :15:22.sense? Is it cautious optimism? I hate to use that cliche but it is a
:15:23. > :15:25.sense of cautious optimism and I suppose the reason to some extent is
:15:26. > :15:30.the French presidency. They have guided the talks well. Negotiators
:15:31. > :15:34.seem willing to do a deal. We got a couple of crunch moments in the next
:15:35. > :15:36.couple of days, with the long cherished hopes and ambitions of
:15:37. > :15:42.many partners having to be put aside. I'm told the president here
:15:43. > :15:45.would like a document tomorrow which has got a range of two choices on
:15:46. > :15:50.each of the key questions. If that is the case, some important pieces
:15:51. > :15:53.will have to be left outside. Some countries might object. I think that
:15:54. > :15:57.is a real point of impact and interest as well, to see of these
:15:58. > :16:00.countries will object the server as lead to what is left of the
:16:01. > :16:04.document. For most people at the moment there is a sense of optimism

:18:45. > :18:51.sons and daughters of fishermen. Water is in the blood. What the
:18:52. > :18:57.community lacks in glamour it makes up for in greatness. Change has come
:18:58. > :19:03.to this area. An extraordinary floating school, widening horizons
:19:04. > :19:09.and giving the children a leg up in life. This classroom is on the third

:19:15. > :19:20.if you walk upstairs, you will find my favourite feature of this boat

:19:57. > :20:04.businessman. I want to be a rich man. You want to be a rich man? And
:20:05. > :20:10.what is special about this school? I like it. It is for a team. It was
