add video playlist "There's outrage among many in the deaf community over the appearance on stage Tuesday of a man who they say was only pretending to do sign language interpretation as President Obama and other world leaders eulogized Nelson Mandela in Johannesburg, South Africa. 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

Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra says she will not resign. In an emotional speech she pleaded with protesters to go home and and try to achieve what they want through the electoral system. Yingluck has called an early general election for February 2. 

But protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban remains defiant. He\'s given Tingluck 24 hours to step down.

The demonstrators claim Yingluck\'s government is controlled by her brother, ousted leader Thaskin Shinawatra.

The protesters want to oust Yingluck and eradicate the influence of Thaksin. He was toppled by the military seven years ago and has chosen to live in exile rather than serve a jail term.

The protests was sparked by a government bid to introduce an amnesty that would have cancelled his conviction for fraud.

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.

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.

But protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban remains defiant. He's given Tingluck 24 hours to step down. The demonstrators claim Yingluck's government is controlled by her brother, ousted leader Thaskin Shinawatra. The protesters want to oust Yingluck and eradicate the influence of Thaksin. He was toppled by the military seven years ago and has chosen to live in exile rather than serve a jail term. The protests was sparked by a government bid to introduce an amnesty that would have cancelled his conviction for fraud.

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.
