Why Is Trump against the Iran Nuclear Deal? | Inside Story

This is a last chance. That is the message US President Donald Trump has sent out after extending sanctions relief to Iran.

He has aggressively warned European allies he would withdraw from the 2015 nuclear agreement altogether if his demands to change it are not met. Trump has publicly branded the deal before and during his presidency as the 'worst ever'.

Iran says his announcement is a 'desperate attempt to undermine a solid multilateral agreement' that is not 'renegotiable'. In the middle of all of this are European leaders who have essentially said to Trump: either back the deal or come up with a better one. But can this deal be re-negotiated?

Presenter: Laura Kyle | Guests: Seyed Mostafa Khoshcheshm - Political Commentator and Specialist on Iranian domestic affairs; Ellie Geranmayeh - Policy Fellow with the European Council on Foreign Relations; Ali Vaez - Senior Iran Analyst with the International Crisis Group

The Secret Jews of Berlin | World War 2 Documentary | Timeline

It is commonly assumed that most Jews in Germany during the Second World War were exterminated, worked to death or saved ‘Schindler style’ by Gentiles.

A surprisingly high number from one city defied the odds and saved themselves. The Jews who survived in Berlin were vibrant, devious, clever and very, very lucky. Five of them tell their stories and reveal their survival techniques. Cantankerous, egotistical and irresistible, the outstanding spirit that helped them survive is still undimmed. This programme is more than just a wartime human interest story. It seeks to show that not all wartime Jews were passive, obedient victims. They were real people who knew how to fight back.

"Harry's Story" - Memories of Hiding Jews and Nazi Brutality during WWII

Harry Andringa was only 9 years old and living in Holland when Adolf Hitler's Nazis invaded the Netherlands. Harry's family endured the horrors and atrocities of the Nazi regime for 5 years until Holland was liberated by the Allies.

Many families including Harry's hid Jewish children to prevent them from being sent to concentration camps. This documentary includes a interview with Harry and supported by vintage war footage from the Canadian Army Newsreels - courtesy of the National Film Board of Canada.

Harry used to visit local schools during Remembrance Day services and other times when he was invited to talk to students about WWII. His story is preserved in this documentary so it will not be forgotten.
