. the former automatic weapons are all right. forty six year old robert bowser is facing twenty nine charges for the attack on the tree of life synagogue in the city of pittsburgh if convicted he could face the death penalty complete joins me now from washington d.c. with the very latest let's begin with the charges that were filed a short time ago against the suspect kimberly yeah that's right twenty nine counts as you point out but what the type of charges are is most relevant given the accusations against this suspect the f.b.i. saying that the federal crimes that this man is facing are firearms offenses as

well as violating civil rights and hate crimes in what police are saying is the deadliest attack on jews in american history. around the country evening vigils to remember the victims of the pittsburgh synagogue shooting gunned down in an act of hate audio from the first responders captured the horror as police arrived on the scene right there on the five story. police learning the gunman's potential motive to kill as many jews as possible inside the tree of life synagogue to one of the women. the shooting suspect has been identified as robert bowers a man in his forty's not previously known to police the f.b.i. is investigating the shooting as a hate crime yeah actions this person took today. this is the most horrific crime scene i've seen in twenty two years a federal investigation minutes before the shooting bowers allegedly blamed on

social media a jewish nonprofit group for bringing immigrants to the united states he wrote i can't sit by and watch my people get slaughtered screw your optics i'm going in bowers post also stated a dislike for president trump a feeling truck made clear was mutual as he calls the suspect if convicted to face the death penalty we must stand with our jewish brothers and sisters to defeat anti-semitism and vanquish the forces of hate and those seeking their destruction we will seek their destroy. a crimes against jews and worshippers of other faiths are not new in the united states in two thousand and twelve six were shot and killed in the sikh temple in wisconsin in two thousand and fifteen nine african-americans were gunned down at a church in charleston a year later twenty six were killed at a church in rural texas. following the pittsburgh attack police around the united

states increased patrols at synagogues and other houses of worship as americans more it takes leadership to stop us and our leaders are not stopping us it's too much we're a civilized society but the u.s. anti-defamation league says hate crimes against religious groups are on the rise pittsburgh synagogue shooting now considered the deadliest attack on jews in american history and the f.b.i. reporting that in fact this was an apprehension that was relatively quick but for the victims inside must have seemed like an eternity twenty minutes before the suspect could be contained from the first nine one one call inside the synagogue apparently the suspect when he first entered the synagogue he was present for about twenty minutes when he began firing he yelled all jews must die apparently he was carrying not only a semiautomatic assault rifle but the f.b.i.

is reporting that he also used three handguns in this attack again the f.b.i. as well as the department of justice saying that this man will be prosecuted under federal law involving hate crime legislation and that he will be prosecuted with the full extent of the law well for the moment to complete things to come but she was a situation develops. saudi arabia's public prosecutor is due to arrive in istanbul later on sunday to discuss the killing of jamal khashoggi turkish prosecutors want the extradition of eighteen suspects but saudi arabia's foreign minister has rejected that call it all comes at a time of molting european pressure. alan fischer has more from istanbul all.

we came to talk syria but the jamal khashoggi case was never far from the surface as the four european leaders gathered after their istanbul meeting turkey's president again demanded those responsible for his killing should face trial in his country. this crime took place in istanbul if saudi arabia is not going to put these people on trial the turkish judiciary can do that here in istanbul and through our ministry of justice jamal khashoggi disappeared after visiting the saudi consulate in istanbul earlier this month initially the saudis denied he'd left the building but under growing international pressure they admitted they had killed the writer and u.s. president in what they described as a fight gone wrong european leaders insist sodhi arabia faces a coordinated sanctions campaign when the results of all the investigations are known and their media of clear on carbon went off once we know who is behind the stage and what the links are we will strive to have a joint european reaction to show we act from a common basis of values it plays on it when issues for me things

a clear firstly some of the facts have been established we must fully investigate a nation with these facts and who's responsible sanctions must be taken on this basis and these sanctions must be coherent and complete and be extremely concrete and proportional it would depend on the facts to say are established and the sanctions will be taken at a european level as we usually do so that there is true coordination but if so the prosecutor will arrive in istanbul in the coming hours it's lying for the turkish authorities the case against eighteen saudis. only being held there in connection with the killing he's also expected to face pressure to extradite them here to talking where the offense took place earlier so he's foreign minister ruled out any extradition on the issue of extradition of the individuals of saudi nationals to detain two hundred his investigation since one year and they will be prosecuted internally at the same conference the u.s.

defense secretary said because shoji killing undermines security across the region failure of any one nation to or during international norms and the rule of law undermine regional stability at a time when it is needed most turkey is growing frustrated with saudi arabia despite public commitments to help any investigation we still don't know where jamal khashoggi body is and who was the mystery local cooperator as the saudis described him who helped dispose of the body and does he really exist all questions the saudi prosecutor will have to answer when he sits stone face to face with his turkish counterpart alan fischer al jazeera. the leaders of friends germany turkey and russia have held talks to find a way to end the war in syria speaking at a major summit in istanbul a call for syrians to lead the way in establishing peace and a new constitution that would pave the way for elections but as a whole the reports from istanbul major divisions remain on their approaches to the

conflict it is a fresh effort in diplomacy it is also a new approach for the first time the main power brokers in syria's war russia and turkey have brought european countries to their table the host turkey's president rash of the gun held one on one meetings on the sidelines of the summit with german chancellor angela merkel russian president vladimir putin and french president manuel mccall but who was not present was just as significant mccraw however did discuss with putin the possibility of arranging a high level meeting. between russian and american officials in paris. the more countries to join the process the quicker ivory we will reach a permanent solution. but even among these players there was little consensus russia continuing to undercut the un and emphasizing the role of the syrian government in any future decisions putin was clearly angry about his inability to

legitimize president bashar assad's hold on power. to make this process successful it must be carried out in a peaceful way with respect to the booted government of the syrian republic people use the expression syrian regime but we must remember the un resolution refers to the government of the syrian arab republic the west wants damascus and its allies to cooperate with the un led political process that calls for reforming the constitution and holding elections the market i knew of the such ten months after the meeting it's not cheat the constitutional committee has yet to take up its work that's why we want the list of interested parties to be finalized by the end of the year so that a meeting can take place europe worried about a new wave of refugees wanted a commitment from russia and turkey for a permanent ceasefire in blip they didn't get that. i hope this gives the political process a set momentum and will continue to do everything in our power to ensure that is

lead to a peaceful solution and doesn't end up in another humanitarian disaster. france's u.n. ambassador summed up the situation syria he says is at a crossroads there can either be an escalation or there can be political momentum starting with an agreement on a u.n. committee to rewrite syria's constitution but syria's government is refusing to cooperate and russia which has a crucial role is urging patience. while there is still a long way from reaching an internationally back political deal there is hope the summit could pave the way for a new diplomatic track one that would bring more players on board but that would mean even more agendas and interests would need to be considered said of. istanbul burgdorferi especially as an arab and islamic a phone as the new america foundation he says bashar al assad has no reason to reach a political solution to end the conflict.
