Among those who noticed what was happening was Wilma Newhoudt, the first deaf person elected to South Africa's parliament and a vice president of the World Federation of the Deaf. "Shame on this male so called interpreter on the stage," she wrote on Twitter during the memorial service. "What is he signing? He knows that the deaf cannot vocally boo him off. Shame on him!""* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down. *Read more here from Mark Memmott / NPR: http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2013/12/11/250179179/fake-sign-language-interpreter-marred-mandela-memorial

Syria War - Heavy Fighting At Serthel Checkpoint Eastern Hama. Heavy Firefight between Syrian Rebels and the Syrian Army at the Serthel Checkpoint in eastern Hama. The rebels assaulted the government held checkpoint with infantry units, tanks, bmps, mortars, armed trucks and atmg rocket launchners in an open battlefield  with nearly no cover.The Video includes also an ATMG hit on a government Tank. In the last decades, the city of Hama has become known as a center of the anti-Ba\'ath opposition in Syria, most notably the Muslim Brotherhood. The city was raided by the Syrian Army, beginning with the 1964 Islamic uprising, and becoming the scene of carnage during the Islamic uprising in Syria in April 1981 and especially in 1982, when nearly 25,000 people were killed in what became known as Hama massacre. The city was once again the site of conflict between the Syrian military and opposition forces, as one of the main arenas of the Syrian civil war in 2011,2012 and 2013.

Paralysed by unrest and deeply divided, Ukraine is yet again at a crossroads. Stumbling from revolution to revolution, the country\'s leaders always portray the choice as one between an authoritarian past and a democratic future. But does it have to be so black, white and orange? Can Ukraine reconcile its identity with its interests or will it plunge into bitter turmoil? Oksana is joined by Ukrainian MP and activist Andriy Shevchenko to analyse these issues.

President Obama shook hands with his Cuban counterpart Raul Castro in a landmark moment for the two countries at Nelson Mandela\'s memorial service. As President Obama made his way onto the stage to pay tribute to Nelson Mandela - he extended his hand to Raul Castro - who shook it and smiled back. The handshake is a rare gesture between the leaders that reflects Nelson Mandela\'s spirit of reconciliation. The only previous known handshake between U.S. and Cuban presidents since the island\'s 1959 revolution was at the United Nations in 2000, when Raul\'s brother Fidel shook the hand of then-U.S. president Bill Clinton in a chance encounter. Report by Sarah Johnston.

As President Obama made his way onto the stage to pay tribute to Nelson Mandela - he extended his hand to Raul Castro - who shook it and smiled back. The handshake is a rare gesture between the leaders that reflects Nelson Mandela's spirit of reconciliation. The only previous known handshake between U.S. and Cuban presidents since the island's 1959 revolution was at the United Nations in 2000, when Raul's brother Fidel shook the hand of then-U.S. president Bill Clinton in a chance encounter.
