ahmed and what is expected of him now but i just want to stay with this for a moment's a new show and get your thoughts on how much credit can be given to work either because we have seen in the past and sometimes they've been controversial decisions but we have seen in the past where the nobel prize has been jointly awarded because there were 2 sides to the piece you've heard what both our other guests have had to say here do you have a different view on that or do you also believe that in this case given what's happening inside iraq trying. given the allegations against the wall for tearing rule of a zionist of work he thought it would have been too far a step too far to board in joint even though friends yeah i mean i find it fascinating because both sides make very compelling arguments with regard to the position of a joint. awarding the prize jointly to both individuals and the pros and cons of that but again you know the when you look at the way in which these awards have been given out in the past except for again i come back to south africa and i think sometimes the question t
