the most complex situation as you can imagine and have a midwife and. rewind on al-jazeera. in the us civil war slavery to an end. there is a strong possibility that the very truths that you are using could have been brought to your table by a right here in the land of the free the foreign workers tricked into immigrating and trapped by unscrupulous profiteers. to jane slaves because of slavery a twenty first century evil on al-jazeera. i mean this was different whether someone is going for someone's favorite. tree i think it's how you approach an individual and that's it is a certain way of doing it you can't just. a story and die out.

this is zero. shall carry this is the news hour life coming up in the next sixty minutes the french president tells us lawmakers to reject nationalism and isolationism key policies of his host on. supporters of armenia's opposition stepped up the pressure to install their leader as prime minister. a jail sentence of nine months for an israeli border policeman who shot dead a palestinian teenager four years ago. and are inside north korea looking at its military capability ahead of friday's historic summit with the south.

well the president of france has used a speech to a joint session of congress to urge the u.s. to reject the nationalism and preserve the iran nuclear deal. to save a three minute standing ovation as he arrived in the chamber his speech was critical of the u.s. president's agenda despite the two share and warm relations on state visit let me say we have two possible ways head we can choose isolationism withdrawal and nationalism this is an option it can be tempting to us as a temporary remitted to all fields but closing the door to the word will not stop the evolution of the word it will not dolls but inflame the fritters of all citizens. we have to keep our eyes wide open to the new risks right in front of us saving the iran nuclear deal has been high on the agenda

for more crones u.s. visit he proposed a new agreement they negotiated with iran that expands on the existing deal white house correspondent kimberly how could reports the president of the french republic . before a joint session of the u.s. congress french president emanuel argue the united states should remain part of the iran nuclear agreement it is true to see that this agreement. may know the address all concerns and very important concerns this is true but we should not abandon its without having some seen substantial and more substantial than said . a day earlier in meetings that the white house might cross suggested the current deal to limit iran's nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief should be the cornerstone of a new supplemental agreement oh and it would address tribes concerns beyond twenty

twenty five including limiting iran's influence in the middle east and halting ballistic missile testing we can change and we can be flexible you know in life you have to be flexible so despite criticizing the existing iran agreement repeatedly for years trump is now signaling he's open to recertify iran's compliance under the terms of the deal but only if his criticisms are addressed with a deadline for donald trump to make his decision just weeks away european leaders are conducting a high level lobbying effort on friday german chancellor angela merkel will be the next to visit the white house she'll work to persuade try to remain in the twenty fifteen iran deal but iran says a u.s. withdrawal will kill it tehran has threatened to respond by pulling out of another agreement the nuclear nonproliferation agreement on weapons on wednesday iran's president question trunks ability to even comprehend the terms of any agreement

show me the car ship hot seat you don't have any background in politics you don't have any background in law you don't have any background on international treaties or going to tradesmen a merchant someone who builds towers for a living make judgments about international affairs and well he's currently signaling he's open to the u.s. for maining in the deal negotiated with iran and five other world. powers given his impulsive nature there's still time for trump to change his mind and follow through with threats to leave the iran deal kimberly helped at al-jazeera at the white house ellen fisher joins us live now from washington d.c. alan it's known that these two men have different positions on any number of things . but this seemed to really be an attempt to point out to highlight those differences is it fair to call it a rebuke. well the two of them do have this very good personal chemistry i think

everyone can see that and there's no don't oppose that but this speech in congress was really a manual mccraw and saying to donald trump i don't agree with you not just on a couple of things on a lot of things you'll remember that during the french presidential election campaign donald trump actually supported marine le pen who was one of my early stages opponents and this was mccall essentially saying look this is where i think we differ know the around deal we know about that kimberly explained that but there are other places too where a manual mccraw and donald trump simply don't agree one of the biggest rounds of applause came when among your mccall said he would like to see somebody at the united states getting back into the party palace climate agreement and most of that applause came from democrats and it was significant that when there was slowed applause it was mainly democrats that were doing it there are other issues too when donald trump's a top trumps of talks about isolationism and american farce this is something the

man you're mccraw thinks is a bad idea he said america she continued to be one of the leading voices in the world he says of the door and then other countries and i think he means china and russia are ready to step into that void and he even had a rebuke is probably the right word for some of the rhetoric that donald trump uses seeing that that doesn't do anything to build solutions what it does do is create and insularity and the fear of donald trump tweeted out that he was going to want to monument cross speech on television we think he did we're not entirely sure the white house hasn't confirmed that but if he did he certainly hasn't had any reaction to what emanuel mccraw had to see ok allan thresher high for us in washington thanks allan. it has featured plenty of backslapping handshakes even kisses about how have the french people reacted to this close relationship between their president and on

a trial about reports from paris. it was pomp and ceremony displays of affection and words like camelot the apparent friendship between the french and american presidents was on full show during emmanuel state visit to washington politically the two men have little in common but the liberal macro is determined to get on with his conservative counterparts we have to make a berth for years perfect in france opinion polls suggest donald trump is unpopular but many people support mike ross approach. what on that they are great friends doesn't matter michael is the french president and he must create strong ties with the u.s. . it's very important for france and for the u.s. and even for europe especially as trump seems to really appreciate president it's a sea chill to have good relations analysts say that macros courting of trump is seen by many french people as

a political tactic mcroy is probably really doing this as a strategy of trying to show from that he actually does respect him and to value the transatlantic relationship because at the end of the day from the european perspective you might not like the american president but the u.s. will always remain an important partner since micros election he has no cheered his relationship with trump inviting him as france's guest of honor to last year's bastille day celebrations and talking regularly by phone michael says he was able to convince trump to keep u.s. troops in syria some people say that the macros close mr trump is a risk because the u.s. president is so unpredictable but others say the french president has much to gain he can try and influence trump on important international matters such as the iran nuclear deal and it may help france's international standing recall seems to her very. well for through diplomatic strategy which is

true create the largest amount of flexibility for france making sure the u.s. is on micro will leave washington with few promises on a number of issues it's unclear for example whether trumbull impose u.s. trade tariffs on the e.u. or agree to an expanded iran nuclear agreement but if trump changes his mind on either issue many people in france may feel the tulip backslapping and smiles who was it. al-jazeera paris when they were ahead on the news hour including a show of unity germans rally against anti-semitism after an attack and berlin. and then didn't go through with millions of followers a sentenced to prison life and prison for rape. and sport its advantage around the track after the first leg of their champions league semifinal where i am.

place in the u.s. state of california have charged a former police officer they suspect of being the so-called golden state killer a serial rapist and murderer in the one nine hundred seventy s. and eighty's he's seventy two year old joseph james t. angelo and it was the d.n.a. found at his home that matched the crime scene evidence. as in los angeles rob tell us the scale of the crimes he's accused. well these crimes rachele occurred over a period of more than ten years and they absolutely terrified communities from northern california to southern california santa barbara and other parts of this state people slept with guns by their sides people locked and barred their doors there was a sense of terror in these communities and of course there were dozens of victims

hundred seventy s. and eighty's detectives collected massive amounts of physical evidence and tips but were on able to crack the case until recent advances in d.n.a. technology we all knew as part of this team that we were looking. for a needle in a haystack. but we also all knew that the needle was there d.n.a. collected from the crime scenes provided the crucial break we started some surveillance we were able to get some discarded d.n.a. and we were able to confirm what we thought we already knew that we had our man authorities say d'angelo was previously not under suspicion the golden state killer crept into victims' homes at night while they slept he often targeted couples he would tie up the husbands and then sexually assault their wives he then bludgeoned some of his victims to death his youngest rape victim was thirteen years old we

will do everything that we can to bring justice to the victims that suffered from unspeakable harm from the horrific crimes crimes that may now be solved by decades of relentless investigation and detectives who never gave up. now d'angelo is also already facing two counts of aggravated homicide california does have the death penalty so that could be an option if prosecutors choose to go in that direction and richelle i think this just proves that as far as criminals go you can run you can hide you can hide for a long time but you can't hide forever not in the era of d.n.a. forensics all right rob reynolds live for us in los angeles rob thank you protesters have been back on the streets of the armenian capital after the acting prime minister cancel crisis talks with the opposition protest leader nichol shinya

must be stamped out wherever possible and certainly that's something that the chancellor angela merkel has made very plain in several speeches since the events as i referred to earlier that we witnessed the anti semitic abuse that took place in the prince lower back and area of this city berlin so just to repeat that there are many hundreds of people here this is not an isolated demonstration taking place there are those cross germany today or highlighting what these people consider to be the evils of anti-semitism the danish inventor has been jailed for life for murdering and dismembering a swedish journalist on his submarine cannonballs remains were found at sea after she interviewed peter madsen on his homemade vessel as an admitted to cutting up her body but says she died accidentally of carbon monoxide poisoning while i'm bored. animal products he brought various items down to the submarine objects with which it was to be tied up tortured and killed be subjected to sexual abuse

a farming village unlike any other in south korea it's inside the heavily guarded demilitarized zone that separates the two koreas north korea is just over a kilometer in that direction gooders who strayed over the border in the past were arrested by north korean guards so farmers get a military escort to their rice fields to go through. we have to report every time we enter and exit the village were farmers so we have to go out just tell our crops but so many restrictions apply to us which makes it very difficult. when the nine hundred fifty three armistice ended hostilities in the korean war the two koreas set up a village each inside the d.m.z. as a sort of model of what life is like on either side the south koreans called key jiang on the other side a propaganda village they don't believe people really live there when south korea erected one hundred meter flagpole the north put up a one hundred sixty meter flagpole villagers are close enough to hear propaganda

broadcasts from the north but they say they haven't heard any since monday after south korea announced it would stop broadcasting its messages across the border for about two hundred residents evacuation drills and a curfew from midnight to sunrise are a way of life but in exchange because this land is under un command locals don't pay taxes to the south korean government with about seven hundred acres of farming land per family the average incomes are higher than those of other farmers and men are exempt from mandatory military service the thirty five students at the only school inside the d.m.z. get personalized attention with only about five children per teacher and us soldiers visit to teach english if you're not a direct descendant of an original resident and want to move here you have to be a woman and marry a local man men don't have that option because the south korean government doesn't want them taking unfair advantage of the military service exemption they are

everywhere but you're not allowed to film them we only got these pictures when we first arrived in pyongyang before it was explained politely but very firmly that taking pictures of military and security personnel was forbidden. the north korean military is believed to have over a million soldiers this city was badly destroyed during the korean war most of the buildings were built in the decades immediately after the conflict the military history of this now isolated nation is revealed as you travel around the capital city. this monument marks the defeat of the japanese who the occupied korea until the end of world war two a few years later the korean war which had a devastating human cost on both sides this is a country that was forged in war and is still even now on a war footing. yet. younger koreans at this school that

taught the history of the korean war war images are displayed in the corridors. older koreans meanwhile need no reminders. those americans are just hearing about them makes my heart tremble my father was killed by the americans when i was twelve so whenever i hear about those americans i get overcome with hatred it makes my heart tremble. forthcoming talks will center on north korea's nuclear program but the country has a substantial conventional arsenal to the principal target of their artillery guns the south korean capital seoul earlier there in the other half of this divided land i spoke to a lawmaker a military expert who told me the world should not only focus on the nuclear threats for them it's who. the biological weapons are on asli more fearsome the nuclear weapons from our perspective the destructiveness of

a one ton nuclear warhead can be achieved with only four kilograms of anthrax in terms of casualties in seoul it is estimated that north korea has stockpiled over five thousand tons of chemical weapons on one song in all military first is a longstanding north korean strategy in recent years the leader kim jong un has added another track a cautious and partial opening up of the economy now for the first time on friday he'll be adding in high level diplomacy james bays out zira pyongyang. the supreme court's conservative judges have indicated they're likely to up hold on a travel ban and the court has been hearing arguments on the president's contentious executive order which targets travelers from predominantly muslim countries there are five conservatives on the nine member supreme court to appear unlikely to second guess the president trump says the ban is needed for national security that critics say it discriminates against religious groups and violates

the constitution. the white house has criticized the ruling against the top administration's decision to end dhaka program saying it's wrong the plan shells thousands of young immigrants known as dreamers from deportation and gives them work permits judge john bates ruled that terminating the program was based on virtually unexplained grounds he's ordered it to be restarted. doctor program violates federal law president obama went around congress and created the illegal doc doco program we believe the judge's ruling is extraordinarily broad and wrong on the law what's worse is that it creates an incentive for more illegal immigrant youth to come here and causes them to expect similar judicial policies be applied to them this ruling is good news for smuggling organizations and criminal networks and horrible news for our national security it's time for congress to do what the president has called on them to do and offer to be part of it actually fix this problem place of kind of farms the three mexican film students who disappeared last

month were abducted and killed their bodies for dissolved in acid by a gang who mistook them for members of a rival group their deaths have sparked protests john holeman has more from mexico city. this is one of the pockets of protests that have sprung up in mexico since authorities and now the three films students who disappeared last month were killed the state prosecutor's office lease go in southwest mexico says they believe that they were murdered by a drug going into the buildings within days so do not. this isn't the business according to the indications in interviews that is where they were known to have beaten one of the students once they were hitting him that is how he was killed and they had to execute the other two students. the wounds in mexico never really closed after forty three students were taken by police in collusion with organized crime in two thousand and fourteen the new around me was full of hundreds of

thousands of people protesting and this is another reminder for many the authorities called a war protect the innocent stand. where indignant angry we want justice in the area where the students were taken with people disappear every day we want it to be an area of freedom and security now a new president a many political leaders a due to be elected in just over two months and they're going to have to get to grips with a murder level that's the highest in two decades and with many in a population that are both scared and indignant. place in mexico say an award winning journalist was killed last year because of his investigative stories on drug trafficking and organized crime they are valid as was shot at in may just weeks after he interviewed a leader in the senate low a cartel a suspect was arrested on monday and wanna die as one of at least a dozen journalists killed in mexico last year

democratic models and to reverse the really exists pressure on countries and governments so that the open the doors to journalism to journalists working for the warders news agency and me and maher are accused of violating state secrecy laws have appeared in court when low in charge so were arrested in december while investigating abuses and rakhine state if convicted they could face up to fourteen years in prison alison's of survivors of a massive earthquake in nepal three years ago are still living in makeshift shelters said the government has to tell its promise to has not fulfilled its promise rather to give them permanent homes to be distressed of reports. from the arab basque of fish looks like any other but all these huts have flimsy rules made of talk polish and bamboo but the magnitude seven point eight earthquake

shook this part of the world three years ago nine thousand people died almost four thousand of them were from district one hundred and fifty two families to shelter on this hilltop. my dog's willage is a day's walk from here so our house was swallowed by the river here it impossible to sit inside during the summer in the winter it's cold and damp and when the wind blows we are sometimes afraid that i leave my get blown away on it almost eight hundred thousand homes were damaged by the queen each family qualifies to receive three thousand dollars for rebuilding but so far only one hundred nineteen thousand families have a permanent home the rest remain in temporary shelters meyer dongs family are qualified for the grant except they have nowhere to build because experts say their villages are unsafe geologists have identified more than eighty families here who can no longer return to their villages the government has said that they are going
