Summary |
THE KARZAI INTERVIEWDateline presenter Yalda Hakim travels to Afghanistan for a candid, one-on-one interview with President Hamid Karzai.The President gives a revealing assessment of the war on terror, extremism within his country, the death of Australian troops in Afghanistan, and what he calls 'human rights violations' by America in his country. And he has a strong message for Afghan asylum seekers in Australia: come home to rebuild your country.Yalda also travels with Karzai to Pakistan for talks with President Asif Ali Zardari and Iran's leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as the Afghan President pushes towards peace talks with the Taliban.Will he succeed? And where does it all leave the international 'war on terror'?SYRIA'S FREEDOM FIGHTERSOver 6,000 people are said to have been killed since the Syrian Government started its crackdown on protests against President Assad's regime.The violence has brought worldwide condemnation and calls from the UN to end the 'violations of human rights'.Tuesday's Dateline goes undercover in Homs with a group of rebel fighters, led by a charismatic 25-year-old deserter from Assad's army.In a rarely-seen side of the conflict, the story captures life behind the frontlines with the Free Syria Army, as the rebels patrol the ruined streets, dodging snipers' bullets, as they try to stop the advance of Assad's forces.PORTUGAL'S LAST TABOOBullfighting has long been a male-dominated sport, but a group of women in Portugal are fighting against the tradition.Video journalist David O'Shea meets the country's first female 'forcados' group, doing battle not only with the animals, but with male prejudice, too.He finds little support for them from men in the bullfighting world, and condemnation from animal rights groups protesting outside Lisbon's main bullring.So what's driving this controversial new interest in female bullfighting? |
