when we managed the financial system between one nine hundred forty five one thousand nine hundred seventy one there was not a single financial crisis anywhere in the world and then in one thousand seventy one the bank has lobbied and they said no no no we don't need controls you know the market will discipline us banks love to make loans to sufferance why because behind the sovereign a millions of taxpayers we can see in reaction to the liberalization fight just as we saw it in the one nine hundred twenty s. and it's going to be updating it already is ugly in many parts of the world where people are saying if my government when took off to my interest then i would look for a strong back if he's a fascist i don't care if you promises to secure the stability of my life and my people i will vote for him i think that's where we're heading and i don't think our beaches have the vision to understand that's the threat that we face.

a lot of those stories in just a moment but first want to tell you about a story just coming to us now an algerian military plane has crashed near bullfighting airport in the capital algiers these are the latest pictures algeria's civil defense are reporting that one hundred and five members of the military on board were killed survivors have been sent to hospitals that's all the information that we have on that right now bill of course bring you more as and when we get it . so in syria's seven year long conflict there is a risk of escalating even further russia's ambassador to lebanon says that any u.s. missile fired at syria will be shot down and the launch sites targeted u.s. president donald trump threatened what he called

a quick and forceful response against the suspected chemical attack on saturday syrian aid workers say at least sixty people were killed and more than one thousand injured in the southern town of duma russia denies the attack even happened and britain and france have pledged their support for any u.s. action zen or what is live for us in beirut in lebanon so it does appear as though the stakes are being raised now in syria. yes they have been raised the russian ambassador to lebanon making it very clear that moscow will respond to any strike against the syrian government they will shoot down missiles and they will target launch sites now moscow how's that been warning against the strike for for some days now the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov warning of grave consequences he didn't say what those consequences will be but now the russian ambassador making it clear a clear message to the united states and its allies the u.k.

as well as france who are discussing the possibility of military action in retaliation for a chemical weapons attack. but options are limited if he is to avoid a wide scale confrontation. tomahawk missiles launched by the u.s. military hit the syrian air base on the morning of april seventh two thousand and seventeen it was the first time the united states directly targeted syrian government forces since the start of the conflict the raid was in response to this . president donald trump said the show your right to air base was used to launch a chemical weapons attack over one hundred people among them women and children were killed in the northern town of. the base was damaged but apart from that the strike didn't we can the government or its allies and it didn't prevent further chemical attacks the latest on saturday night reportedly killed dozens of people in

the town of duma a suburb of damascus moscow says opposition rebels stage the attack to justify a military action against the syrian government the u.s. disagrees trump has promised to retaliate. by. president trump will have to carry out a strike but he has limited options he cannot cross russia. they would have to coordinate any strike with the russians like they did in the. there could be escalation. some two thousand u.s. troops are in north east syria and the location of their bases in the kurdish region are known russia has warned the us of what it called the grave consequences if it targets syrian government forces many believe trump cannot back down he has made public statements and threats so some sort of military action is expected but the action is likely to be limited in scale and scope because if it is

a wide operation or if it's threatened syrian president bashar assad's hold on power it would risk open confrontation with his backers russia and iran syrian government forces and their allies are now on alert they have reportedly moved out of their bases and evacuated military positions but washington is reportedly studying the possibility of a multinational military response we are clear that those responsible should be held to account with as i say working urgently with our allies to assess what has happened but we are also working with our allies on any action that is necessary. the u.s. reportedly gave russia advance warning before last year's strike that allowed the syrian military to move its assets this time around trump is warning russia and iran that they too can be held accountable the stakes are high but few expect the response to be a game changer. beirut. and you know we understand there is

a power movement as well on plans by the global chemical watchdog to possibly visit. the site of that apparent chemical attack. yes the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons they will be sending a team to syria that fact finding mission will visit duma the once rebel controlled town of to my they will inspect the site and investigate the site of the alleged chemical weapons attack the organization was invited by both the russian government and the syrian government and the mission is supported by other world powers but it is not clear whether or not this mission really is enough to stave off the possibility of military action or if this mission is a way to find some sort of a diplomatic way out of this crisis this is not the first time there's a threat of military action following a suspected chemical weapons attack it happened in two thousand and thirteen the

obama administration threatening to launch a military action but at the end there was a diplomatic deal which involved dismantling syria's weapons program its chemical weapons program so will this mission be enough especially since it will doesn't have the mandate to apportion blame it can only say that a chemical weapons attack happened but it can't say who was responsible. then a hard ally for us there in beirut thank. our south africans are saying their final goodbyes to the woman they called the mother of the nation an official memorial service under way now for winnie mandela has taken place and so wetter where she lived and forty against apartheid the activist and former wife of south africa's first black president nelson mandela died last week at the age of eighty one she played a leading role battle against white minority rule. on me and mars

here we have no choice if the government or aid agencies help us. otherwise we are staying here aid agencies are doing their best to move some of the brown or boat people into safer ground a new location we need to move families who are most at risk in the next to safer ground so what you see here is three and a half thousand workers working around the clock to make this land safe. so that we can be found to safety one of the biggest threat the refugees are going to face is water bon and mosquito borne disease during the monsoon season also the communication process from from their home to the relief center and the clinics are going to be jeopardized by that road condition during the monsoon season just about run the refugees were getting adjusted to their new camp life they're facing new challenges in coming months. now about one third of all shed your the air france flights have been canceled as employees strike demanding
