12:00 am
the u.s. already has a bad relationship with saudi arabia because we're letting a lot of negative things happen there and let them do a lot of negative things that are actually to the detriment of the us as national interest and nothing has been done about that so i think more than anything else just could potentially be something that helps reset the relationship but making sure that it is one that is far more to the interest of the u.s. and far more pushing for stability in the region than what the saudis have been engaged in so far trita parsi it's always a pleasure talking to you thanks for making the time today. so will the u.s. punishment had been somewhat of a murder that is what the inside story team was asking only yesterday saturday when the news first broke of the cia's conclusions samizdat and lead that discussion with former cia officer going col and regular al jazeera contributor on u.s. affairs scott lucas you can watch it for yourself of course in the show's section at al-jazeera com and remember new edition of inside story it gets its first run every day seventeen thirty g.m.t. which is nineteen minutes after the news grid finishes and you can get in touch
12:01 am
with us as well thank you for the questions coming in on facebook live already the hash tag is a.j. news great i've had a question unfortunately bit late to put to trita parsi but will remember us for another day carolyn was asked why did why why did saudi arabia go to such lengths to murder what did he know why was he such a threat perhaps something we'll look at in the next couple of days because the story is not going anywhere that number plus one seven four five or one triple one four nine is the what's that number you can send your questions in directly telegram as well hashtag a.j. news grid on twitter and facebook. all right we are moving on now and the devastating wildfires in california donald trump saw firsthand how the city of paradise has become hell state officials have now raise the number of dead to seventy six while thirteen hundred a still unaccounted for but despite seeing the damage and destruction with his own eyes trump remain skeptical that climate change could have played a role we're going to look at this sort of debate including an interesting comparison with finland that's after this report from kristen salumi in paradise on
12:02 am
the people who've lost everything. at a makeshift camp next to a wal-mart parking lot shell shocked families take stock of their losses aimee bravo and her family were among the fifty thousand people forced to flee their homes as the wildfires closed in around them her trailer home and her place of employment are gone not to mention her daughter's toys a million things coming to my head right we just got to figure out what we're doing and where we're going that's yeah. her hometown called paradise now looks more like hell on earth entire neighborhoods have burned to the ground. forensic recovery teams poke through the burned out shells of homes looking for bodies of the missing the state of california's most devastating wildfire in history has claimed over twelve thousand buildings in addition to so many lives
12:03 am
firefighters continue efforts to contain the blaze which is scorched over sixty thousand hectors the efforts are still still very active also we have units like search and rescue the national guard assisting us and multiple other resources helping us but the recovery president came here to paradise to view the scenes of utter devastation firsthand he met with state officials have been critical of him and promised federal assistance for californians. the president downplaying the role of a changing climate in fueling these fires said the management and maintenance of forest lands will be the focus moving forward and he announced five hundred million dollars for that effort and i was grateful i mean we're going to have that and we're going to have forests that are very safe because we can go through these every year we go through this and we're going to have safe farce and. that's happening as we speak but ten days after the fire broke out californians with nowhere to go are getting impatient let's bring the troops back from the border and
12:04 am
build some homes not some walls you know because that's what we need fema trailers out here people have children people have animals and we're not out here because we want to be we're here because we lost our homes a thick haze of smoke has settled over much of northern california along with the reality it's still not clear where people can go kristen salumi al-jazeera paradise california ok so there's a few things we want to talk about here and one is president trump's desire not to link the california wildfires with climate change and it's interesting because california itself is perhaps the place most committed to tackling climate change in the u.s. but to cuba and since trump pulled the country out of the paris climate accord in fact we've got a i discovered today a governmental website where it talks about a strategy for california bringing carbon emissions down below or to forty percent below the levels they were ninety nine t. in doing that in just twelve years and then all the icons there in the last one
12:05 am
there which is called safeguarding california and it has a whole list of objectives here as far as safeguarding climate change in the state specifically there's one forests including the reducing the amount of fuel or trees as it were which could actually catch fire which is sort of what president trump thinks though he has another theory have a listen. secure the floors you know the floors of the forests very important. you look at other countries where they do it differently and whole different story it was with the president of finland they said we have. searched everywhere far station we called it a forest station they spent a lot of breaking in cleaning and doing things and they don't have any problems and what it is it's a very small problem so i know everybody's working their head to that end and it's going to work out it's going to work out well. look after the floors of the forests
12:06 am
apparently can you compare that or at least can you compare california to finland let's look at it on the map here is the state of california broadly speaking yes there's plenty of forest areas obviously up in the north and then down the south where there are other fires as well remember around los angeles it's a dry a climate definitely and in fact since may this year they've only had about point seven of an inch of rain in the what is that six months or so if you fly all the way around the world though to finland i mean it's a very different sort of country it's a forest nation and that's what the president of finland told donald trump it's a forest nation but it's a lush land there's lots of lakes there and they've actually had around seventeen inches of rain since may of this year so it feels a little bit like comparing apples and oranges let's compare apples and oranges shall we and then as a freelance journalist on skype from hell thinking nice to have you with us does
12:07 am
finland go raking the floors of the forests there it's a seem to be of rather peculiar idea which was thrown out there. this comment has. caused quite a lot of surprise in tonight because. i think i think. president minister told our president trump that we take care of our forests. but i think president trump may have understood that we have caretakers in our forests and that's quite a different thing like. we have we are quite a large contrie larger than britain for instance and that we are only five billion people so it would be quite a daunting task if we put every single event to break a break in the forest that would be very very hard so tell me more about forest management in finland if we were just looking at a map there it is it seems to be very dense forests right across the country what
12:08 am
other protection is a put in. well. you mentioned the amount of lakes we have almost two hundred thousand lakes in finland and. and generally finland is quite the rainy country the forests are very dense and thick and quite. moist most of the time and we have a very wide network of roads in the forests so it's a forest fire start it's very easy to get fire engines there and there's. almost always a lake nearby so we don't have big forest fires we do have. a couple of thousand cases in finland where a dry iteration burns based like kids are playing with matches and
12:09 am
a small area to read temperature but that's it basically. they were correct me if i'm wrong some large fires i think it was only last year in the lapland area near to. the border with russia so we're talking further north than finland i mean the fact that you're even getting that in a place like finland which as you say has been more than climate is for the north i mean does that lend itself to the climate change argument. i think. the priors in the last couple of years they have been mostly in russia and sweden and finished firefighters have been helping swedes to fight fight their fires which we did forest is apparently a bit different from from the finnish one but i think the concept of climate change issue is widely accepted in finland. but i don't think we do anything anything very special to. report to protect our forests because as i said they are quite down
12:10 am
content in the first place and we have we do have quite a large block area as well interesting talking about this not it not a topic i thought we would discuss fire as far as fires in finland but i'm glad you could join us in a post alan and thank you found something interesting is what i wanted to show you this before i actually saw this earlier from the finnish forest association an article they put out back in august look at that finland has a problem with too few forest fires a theory from. research is there at the forest association who are basically saying that you need to have some clearing away in that land needs to be looked after and reforested so that you have by a diverse cities or that you have different species that you know so it's just it's very interesting that this is actually become part of the discourse given most of us seem to go with the climate change argument in california. speaking of california reveal or face masks i even saw i think some of our reporters using them
12:11 am
in the in the early moments of it but there's a little question over some of the things which people are using here but overall the issue is very serious on the ground and also online kemal air quality is so toxic in some areas that residents to stay indoors always a mosque outside to avoid severe health risks and this map about to show you monitors how widespread the air quality problem is for some states it also updates every hour with the latest measurements and it ranges from yellow being moderates red as unhealthy and purple reaching hazardous and right now the air quality index is sitting at one hundred eighty six and it's unhealthy. now wendy mcnorton a visual calmness at the new york times created this illustration titled how californians are breathing in the new abnormal of epic fires this is also getting a lot of attention online and i want to show you what it currently looks like on the streets of berkeley in california photojournalist david he captured the moment
12:12 am
pedestrians walked along telegraph avenue where the mosques to cope with the smoke in the air in butte county and we're seeing a growing trend online many sharing and mosque selfies to emphasize the hazardous conditions several schools and businesses have closed with many shooting to stay at home and some say breathing the air in places like sacramento for a day is now roughly equivalent to smoking fourteen cigarettes and many referred to symptoms like not being able to breathe normally chest discomfort or even wheezing a smoke masks are in high demand with some of the stores now currently running out of stock. now there is a debate about how effective these mosques actually are and not all face mosques provide the same level of protection and it does depend on model and also fit california's public health department recommends the n ninety five or p one hundred
12:13 am
bosc which filters out ninety five percent of airborne particles to help protect lungs from damage and they should be changed daily but sacramento county says wearing them outweighs the benefits and that's because they could cause breathing difficulties and even an elevated heart rate fire stations will continue to distribute mosques to people who want them but overall health experts say the best defense is to stay indoors and meanwhile there is a petition for action using the hash tag climate fire a group dubbed the s.f. bay resistance is protesting against donald trump's position on climate change they calling on authorities to treat this as a public health emergency they want mosques available to everyone and have efforts of public spaces and also to stand up to the oil industry that fuels climates in the fire as well if you have been affected by those fires in california share your story with us is the hash tag newsgroups or you can message me directly at her him
12:14 am
khalid al thanks for here it is time to talk brags that britain's prime minister says any change in leadership would risk causing delays to the burbs purposes of leaving the european union questions have hung over to reason as future rivers and some of her ministers while there was big resignations after she revealed a draft agreement that came as others in a party actually began a process to try to oust her from her position as told british media that it change in leadership wouldn't make negotiations in the ease. with the an enviable task of following the break that story for us today from london high sonia just it's a barrel of information isn't it but big media interviews today two through what prime minister may have to say. indeed and what she definitely was doing was doubling down on her stance there saying that she really acknowledge that the past few days had been really quite tough something
12:15 am
that you really couldn't deny even if you wanted to but also the next few days are also going to be equally crucial as the withdrawal agreements final details are being hammered out she also confirmed that she was going to pay a visit to brussels to the european commissioner. and to try and follow up on some of those details between the u.k. and the european union but she also maintained that the withdrawal deal was incumbent upon a future agreement between the european union and the u.k. and that the agreement rests on what that future deal could hold i.e. if they get a good deal if they get everything or is make as many people happy on both sides of the argument as as possible then it all goes ahead but these are very trying times for the prime minister of course last week it was anticipated any moment now it
12:16 am
could have been the fall of her government but she has stood that trial so far the next few days are going to be extremely extremely testing for her and really that all comes to the point where the and peace within her party are going to be able to get enough letters in to trigger off a no confidence vote in her and if that is the case then it's all back to the drawing board with many others on her side particularly the bracks it side to thing the more breakfasters wanting to kind of change that withdrawal but there's no. genuine will from brussels to do that just quickly the opposition labor party led by germany called and it would seem like a perfect opportunity for them to exploit these weaknesses in the government is that what's happened what has germany. well what do you is saying is that he's unhappy with the deal in the village the party aren't going to vote for it that is something which they've insisted on when
12:17 am
they when they've gotten any details from that they've said well this is not fitting what we want as the opposition however he is still banking on a general election which is what the leadership of been pushing for this is despite the fact that the opposition party the labor party have trailed behind in the conservatives consistently despite this whole bracks it fiasco so i would call it thought he did hint that while he is not entirely in agreement with having. a second referendum a so-called people's vote now it could be something they could have in the future thank you go outside the house of parliament in london does briggs it to confuse you. of course it does it confuses a lot of people but we've got a good jumping off point you hear down to zero dot com going right back to the fundamental question of what is briggs it. video links just
12:18 am
a nice simple explain it for you of what has become a very complicated and it's uncertain process britain's brags that drama what you need to know that's what you search for i don't see red dot com this is the newsgroup if you're with us on facebook why would a story for you know about the backlash over on a group of boys who appear to have made a nazi salute in their high school photo that's from a.j. and then a little later agreeing to disagree why for the first time the annual i pick summit ends in disagreement because of tension between the u.s. and china. hello again welcome back where across we are seeing some cloudy and rainy conditions across the western portions of the area you can see those clouds pushing through right here a lot of clouds across most of iraq down here towards the saudi border we are going to be seeing some rain showers as well aleppo
12:19 am
a cool day for you at all the region to about eighteen degrees not looking too bad for beirut still clouds in your forecast at twenty five but as we go towards tuesday most of those clouds shift over here towards the east so we are going to see more sun in the forecast so aleppo eighteen to about nineteen degrees there but looking a little bit better in terms of sunshine here across much of the arabian peninsula not looking too bad down here towards the south we are still watching those rain showers up towards the northern part of saudi but over here toward still have twenty eight degrees and the forecast as we go towards tuesday twenty nine and not looking too bad but muscat is going to be a nice day with about twenty eight degrees in your forecast there much of the southern portions of africa are going to be seeing clouds and spotty showers in the forecast over the next few days and for cape town that means we are going to be seeing low twenty's few of clouds in the forecast there but the temperatures are on the rise particularly here towards durban we're going to start with a temperature there on monday of about twenty three degrees but as we go towards tuesday those temperatures are really increasing we do expect to see about thirty
12:20 am
seven degrees in your forecast. getting to the heart of the matter how can you be a refugee after you while eight borders between five safe countries facing the realities no pains that from the very beginning got there by a school providing context housing is not just about four walls and a roof hear their story and talk to al-jazeera. it's a daunting climb to one of the holiest sites in bhutan tiger's nest ball astri seems to defy gravity every few cities is expected to complete the pilgrimage to ensure peace and happiness when it became a democracy in two thousand and eight the town put happiness at the center of all political policy inspiring the un to pass a resolution urging other nations to follow betimes example but how do you measure it really brittanys happiness is what we ensure it if it is quantifiable but by
12:21 am
simply turning its pursuit into policy bhutan has done what no other country has.
12:22 am
what's trending as well donald trump and friend and of course as we wait another two days it seems until we get some sort of news they're going to get the latest on the california fires remember critical more than a thousand missing it is important to point out that. authorities talking about that to the people to that news on that let's be quite bad guy. and then more on the submarine that was recovered yesterday in argentina an extraordinary story one year after it disappeared that is what's trending for you this sunday at al-jazeera dot com. we're returning to the jamal khashoggi case now in the knock on effect it's having on those saudis who would speak out about or even against their country for example a prominent saudi cleric is awaiting his face after the public prosecutor called for the death penalty. was arrested a year ago as part of the crown prince mohammed bin summons crackdown on dissent
12:23 am
his son has spoken to al-jazeera is up front with me about the case. do you think they're serious about that that they would really execute a cleric as prominent as your father salma outer world do you think those who went to the saudi consulate were serious to take the liar for the prominent journalist and veteran saudi. it's i mean it's the same mentality it's a pattern it didn't it did not start with my father did not start with it's a pattern that we have it with we have seen through the past one year and a half since the crown prince came to power. they did everything in their power to just silence others to crackdown on dissent to just do impulsive policy you say it's a power some might say yes it is
12:24 am
a power and your father was arrested imprisoned punished by the saudi authorities in the past too in the one nine hundred ninety s. when he was a quote unquote islamist rabble rouser his critics said many would say that's why he's being imprisoned with m.b.a.'s the saudi government under any prince or king has always taken a very dim view of people who oppose the government is so it's rotarian is always tyranny. trying to ask and demand political reform is never something that you should be punished for political reform that my father and other spoke for. is actually the solution is actually their path towards ability we'll come back to the political reform in a moment just to confirm many say your father was arrested in september twenty seventh because he refused to publish a tweet to his fourteen million followers at the request of the saudi government that supported the saudi led blockade of qatar which full disclosure owns this channel owns al-jazeera english is that true it's
12:25 am
a trigger it's true because after he tweeted when he when he heard about the year he comes. nation between the qatar and saudi government he tweeted a lot he can sile between their hearts for the better of their people few hours after that tweet he was arrested that was the trigger that's of course the direct reason that he was arrested in september two thousand seventy but there is a long yes yes history and relationship that full interview is online already on the up front page you go to the shows section at al-jazeera dot com it is the latest episode it will also next air on the channel eight thirty g.m.t. monday tomorrow here on al-jazeera with us here in studio we've got mark owen jones who is an assistant professor of middle east studies and digital humanities that hamad bin khalifa university here in doha nice to see you and i so we want to talk about what's happening online with the voices of the dissidents i guess the first
12:26 am
thing to establish is how vocal were they prior to the case how vocal was the saudi expect community dissident community however you want to term it i think the dissident community was vocal they were critical especially those living outside saudi arabia but let's not forget the face. killing of the show did not necessarily create a new situation in saudi arabia where people were suddenly unable to talk about politics it's always been difficult and since the rise of m.b.a.'s who's been incredibly crackdown on dissent dissident voices and dissent we've seen activists moving away from social media we've seen them being arrested as was mentioned earlier in the show but the case i think is important simply because this crossed another line in terms of the intimidation of those willing to criticize the regime and the killing of a journalist in such a brazen way has had a knock on effect in terms of freedom of speech both on and offline and so why don't we go through some of the data which you've come up with i've got from your
12:27 am
page and your website here will bring it up on the screen. and i'll just scroll down to this graph here. and we got that there is at least it's there it is ok so tell me what i'm looking at there the we're looking at the number of times that the term khashoggi has trended in arabic speaking countries yes so what this graph shows is that if you look for any mention of jamelle to shows his name in arabic or english on the twitter trends this is for the whole month of october and early november so what this graph shows is that although jamil shows he was a saudi citizen saudi arabia had the least number of trends mentioning his name let me zoom in that's the gray line right that they didn't even see any incident that yellow the train is and it's absolutely low so it's. going to the pink actually you know that is the gray one i mean that was the top the top line is qatar and what you can end by a long life by
12:28 am
a long way which is interest in itself considering qatar has a small population what's interesting about the stats as well is that saudi has in theory the largest with the population of any arabic speaking country in the world right but it's and it's very internal it is well i think i think there's issues here i think one we have to be sceptical of those figures you know looks good for the saudi regime to say that they have a lot of twitter users because it indicates that people have access to social media what it doesn't tell us is is twitter able we able to manipulate twitter in such a way that voters are either aren't able to talk about democracy or those talking about jamal khashoggi in saudi are having their trends suppressed in some way that it doesn't trend in some way so what we've seen over the last year or so for example especially during the carter crisis is that bots used by those. blockading countries have been used to generate artificial trends and if you did that for example in saudi arabia you generated artificial trends you could push any
12:29 am
. tweets mention in question you could prevent trending by replacing that trend with other trends for example trends praising i haven't been so mad which is very common and we were very common during october so there is some suggestion that there could be manipulation here at play in terms of how trends are being dealt with on twitter which to me is very alarming especially now that we've been revealed that there was a saudi mole in the twitter hate q in america so you know the fact that the saudis have infiltrated twitter and the fact that it seems that force is based in saudi or institutions based in saudi arabia to manipulate with the trends i think this is detrimental not just for those. dissidents in an outside saudi saudi citizens but for the for anyone using the social media platforms fascinating stuff mark owen jones thank you so much for joining us do appreciate it let's just take a look now at some of the stories making news around the world and it's never happened before in the history of the apec summit until now leaders attending that meeting failing to agree on
12:30 am
a final statement after two days of meetings in papua new guinea i picked the asia pacific economic cooperation summit was less about working together more about individual statements andrew thomas with us from port moresby. international summits usually end with bland communiques not chaotic scenes and a prime minister being bundled out of the conference room who that peter o'neill papua new guinea's prime minister had just been telling reporters about the success of the apec summit he'd been hosting and trying to leave without taking questions on its dramatic failure but leaders have not been able to agree on even the plan this language for an agreed leaders statement the apec summit took place behind closed doors so why the failure to get all twenty one to agree i think your writing is as the chair you are the reason not to be able to receive a community where you have almost twenty one economies agreeing to the agreeing to
12:31 am
all the issues that we have discussed and it is not the frustration but you know we all know haitians summit thank managed to publish something even if it's pretty bland agrees they haven't this thought why not ised the problems that are now they were losing their discipline of prime minister chairman statement is not the same as a communique you must be disappointed there's been not going to there's been general statement in the past. maybe i'm so used to that with their secretary in fact there's been an agreed leader statement after every apec summit since one nine hundred ninety three this is not the way i pick conferences are supposed to end and this will be a huge disappointment to the hosts pap and you get particularly the prime minister . it was an argument over trade that caused the break down the trade disputes between the united states and china is so serious that apec leaders couldn't find any common ground they could put into words there are differing visions on particular elements in regards to trade and those are prevented there from being full consensus on the communique document the leaders agreed to that instead of
12:32 am
a traditional leaders decoration issue they would. leave it there and sort of in. the chip. regional rivalry with clear leaders from australia new zealand japan and the united states announced millions of dollars to help bring reliable electricity to the majority of people in papua new guinea and that seen as a way to counter the growing chinese investment and influence this principle space partnership signals our ongoing commitment to put our financial and our technical resources into connecting more households businesses and serious providers across papa new guinea apec is normally a forum for consensus and cooperation on how to grow economies this is descended into squabbles over policies actions and words and donald trump wasn't even there
12:33 am
under thomas al-jazeera mostly and one of the major abortion clinics in kenya has been ordered to stop offering its services and i can only imagine this is not going down too well you know it has been going to come all the outrage is not surprising as the topic of abortion is sensitive around the world marie stopes is one of the main panics and kenya which conducts legal abortions in various parts of the country but recently it was ordered to stop by the kenya medical practitioners and dentists board and this comes after a public outcry against the kind of advertising sun say that it was promoting abortion and the organization has been pushing through with radio and social media platforms messages about support it gives to pregnant women and in kenya abortion is only legal for emergency treatment or when the life or health of a mother is in danger and we have from a rape victim who shared her story with us and she says banning abortion is not the
12:34 am
way to go for security reasons we've been asked not to reveal her identity bunning maurice. maybe one more i was in my situation is the right thing to do and one man who would like to remain anonymous says that this move will actually lead to more illegal abortions. quite a number of species. could have babies to this to. patients to carry out their push to. pass through. happening the government. to make sure that their.
12:35 am
children could have been killed by banning might is to cause a misguided. now hundreds of thousands of girls and women still procure unsafe abortions in kenya every year contending with those figures recent studies show that because of high rates of sexual violence and poverty more than forty percent of pregnancies are unplanned reports indicate that there are about three hundred ten thousand abortions every year and around twenty one thousand are admitted for treatment of abortion related complications as a result at least two thousand six hundred kenyan women die each year after having botched back street abortions all kenyans are using the hash tag marie stopes abortion ban to express their outrage the controversy started off with people saying abortion should not be allowed in response some argue that only up to women to to decide many also believe the ban is an outcome of poll policy making.
12:36 am
now in just twenty sixteen kenya has spent more than six million dollars to treat complications of unsafe abortions in public health facilities according to a report by the health ministry and also the african population and health research center but if you are currently in kenya we do want to hear from you what you think of a ban on abortions tweet us is the hash tag is great thanks for him a very interesting story and great to get those first hand comments coming through from kenya now we're going to interesting story about cashew farming in tanzania come on you on the grid stick around for the last and then far as you with your sport there is drama in the dressing room as the n.b.a. champions the golden state warriors miss out again. capturing the moment in time snapshots of the night's other stories
12:37 am
providing a glimpse into someone else's were. nice. to see around. so yes government leaders in tanzania concert have two hundred thousand tons of cash or nuts on their hands the government is all set to buy the entire crop to try to end a price dispute between farmers and trade is that katherine sawyer reports even the army has been brought in as the processing workers us and. de nest number is have a sting the last of her cash crop that it's been a bad idea a disease or dries of food has meant she's only managed to fill seven sacks instead
12:38 am
of the usual forty on average to make matters worse middlemen offered to buy them at an unacceptably low price that of course the government to intervene and buy tanzania's and hire a crop at a dollar and a half a kilo the government's also undertaken to process and sell it or. what they wanted to buy from us at a cost that will not get any returns we spend so much on fertilizes the way the government has intervened is good. the cashew nuts will end up in warehouses like this would be leased by the government officials here and military commanders are walking out logistics to make sure the process is smooth and there's enough room to store around two hundred thousand tons of knots what you should be going in i want you see we want you the public to coordinate with the military we need strong young men to load the trucks.
12:39 am
tanzania is one of the world's largest cash not produces and the major foreign exchange. president john mark foley has some ministers and government workers to deal with in that price crisis this move by the government to buy up all the caution that's from families in the south is unprecedented the president has ordered the agriculture development bank to pay up and for the military to coordinate trucking the nuts to warehouses traders and middlemen are being left out at this time of the processing plants such as this one should be busy preparing exports most have shut down in those still operating for. twenty helps run the factory he says a fall in cash prices because of a subclass in the world market has made it difficult for traders to buy from the government set price. with close to some operations and laid off two hundred people

about to implode good morning from new york no i don't think they're going to implode i think they're in a slump right now you look at not only the fact that the rantin dream and got into a fight but steph curry their point guard is also out right now with some injuries out for at least five games i think the warriors like any team has a slob a couple weeks ago was the lakers and it was the who's the rockets that now was the warriors' turn these are distractions and you know they're the world champion so they will figure it out ok so how serious is this boston between kevin durant's and dreaming green and is it affecting. their play on the court. yeah i mean it's serious but here's one thing that gets lost in the translation and green is the heart and soul of the golden state warriors team a guy that can score he can distribute he can rebound and he's the bully on that team if you will he's the big brother that bullies all the other guys and the issue
12:43 am
that dream on it and kevin duran had was in the game against the atlanta hawks. kevin durant wanted the ball the into the game the win the game dream on they want to pass to him and so that started on the court it ensued and went over to the bench and had other teammates bringing it up and carried over into the locker room where drayman called him a b.-i t.-c. h. told him that we don't need you that we we won this before you got here which is the truth but it seemed like it was a sober thought that he felt needed to be said in order to get his attention the war is a world champions but they've got some turmoil they can turn it around though i guess we'll see do you think durant's will golden state next season no. i reported in september that the los angeles lakers are a team of interest for kevin durant's chance to team up with le bron james
12:44 am
a member the los angeles lakers as well as other things but i think it's bigger than just was going on in the locker room i think it's a situation where the western conference is getting younger and leaner and he's looking at the bigger picture as far as his brand is concerned all right brandon robinson thank you so much for your time. people are talking about a big crash at the macau grand prix formula three race in china person volves arrives still this video is not for the faint of heart after a driver cynthia forest was beating into a tight corner before losing control of her car and slamming into a wall the germans car flew through the air at tel finding speed before crashing into a nearby platform the seventeen year old was taken to hospital with a spinal fracture to photographers and a marshall are also recovering in hospital with people in the stands documented everything posting videos from several angles the crash and sophia's name were

12:48 am
people that nobody else is talking to and bringing that story to the forefront. excluded and on tour attack. communities up paying the price of hiking nationalism in a country. but really with it so. people in power investigates the hate crimes at the hands of far right groups. ukrainian repression on al jazeera. president confirms the u.s. has an audio recording of the murder of jamal khashoggi but says he's not listened to it himself there's no reason for me to hear it in fact i said to the people they
12:49 am
said you really should. follow i'm maryanne demasi in london you know with al jazeera also coming up smiles but no agreement asian and pacific aid as ends in deadlock as china and the us clash israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu meets his cabinet in a bid to keep what's left of his coalition together also. i'm catherine in a warehouse and sowed in tanzania i'll be telling you about last night's crisis that has forced the government to step in and deploy the military to take charge. the u.s. government is expected to issue a report on tuesday about who was behind the murder of saudi journalist jamal khashoggi media reports say the cia believes the saudi crown prince mohammed bin
12:50 am
solomon it was responsible u.s. president donald trump says he hasn't listened to or at the recordings believed to be of the show g.'s mudda saying they are violent and vicious rosalynn jordan joins us live now from washington what else has president tom been saying rosalind. well certainly of the president was being interviewed on fox news sunday about the murder of among other topics and there's been a lot of pressure on us president donald trump to respond very forcefully against the government of saudi arabia for killing one of its citizens so this is some of what he had to say during this interview and we should let our viewers know that this was taped on friday before the cia report assigning blame to the crown prince mohammed bin solomon was released we have the tape i don't want to hear the tape no reason for me to hear the tape why don't you i've been i really want to hear it's
12:51 am
or because it's a suffering tape it's a terrible tape i've been fully briefed on it there's no reason for me to hear it in fact i said to the people should they said you really shouldn't there's no reason i know exactly i know everything that one of the thing without having it and what happened it was very violent very vicious and terrible did anybody to use or. i don't i don't know you know who can really know but i can say this he's got many people now say he had no knowledge what if the crown prince speaking to you the president of the united states directly lied to you that he told me that he had nothing to do with it he told me that i would say maybe five times at different points to one of his law as recently as a few days ago do you just live with it because you need him well will anybody really know. rosen on their competing views within the trump administration about the best approach to this. there are competing views on how to
12:52 am
approach the murder there are competing views on how to hold people in saudi arabia accountable is it enough just to sanction those people who may have been directly involved in his murder or do you sanction the people who ordered the murder who authorized it who paid for it and that's one of the big debates happening not just within the top administration but over on capitol hill as well the we should note that a woman who was working on the national security council with the portfolio for saudi arabia resigned on friday night even though there's one newspaper report saying that she had been on administrative leave kiersten fontanne rose has apparently had been a law being for a very strong condemnation a very strong punishment of saudi officials because of the murder but it's not clear whether she had persuaded people of her view beyond getting one of the crown
12:53 am
prince's close advisers on a sanctions list is possible that she may have stepped on some toes because there is a sense that the ministration wants to maintain this very close relationship with saudi arabia it's very very difficult to discern exactly how the trumpet ministration is going to resolve its role in the situation because the president before has talked about the importance of saudi arabia for national security reasons he's talked about the importance of saudi arabia for economic reasons but there are many people within the trumpet ministration who say that the united states has an obligation to act as a moral arbiter for a country that does not legalize killings of political opponents or sasa nations of leaders of other countries they say it's important for the u.s. to send the message to other governments that you can't target someone that you think is a threat to your government. who is critical of your government and you certainly

can't kill them and that if you do that there will be consequences so we'll see if this report does come out from the administration we only know right now about the cia conclusion which was leaked to the process on friday night but just because the cia has come up with a determination mario doesn't mean that the white house has decided that this is the determination all right thank you very much with the latest from washington roslyn jordan. for the first time in history leaders attending the apec summit have failed to agree on a final statement two days of talks at the asia pacific economic cooperation ended up being less about working together and more about individual statements andrew thomas reports now from papa new guinea where the summit was held.
12:55 am
international summits usually end with bland communiques not chaotic scenes and a prime minister being bundled out of a conference room who peter o'neill papua new guinea's prime minister had just been telling reporters about the success of the apec summit he'd been hosting and trying to leave without taking questions on its dramatic failure but leaders not being able to agree on even the plan this language for an agreed leaders statement the apec summit took place behind closed doors so why the failure to get all twenty one to agree i think your writing is alastair you are the reason not to be able to achieve a community where you have almost twenty one economies agreeing to the agreeing to all the issues that we have discussed and it is not the frustration but if we all haitians summit thank managed to publish something even if it's pretty bland agrees they haven't this thought why not ours the problem is that in our bill isn't there this afternoon prime minister chairman statement is not the same as a communique you must be disappointed there's been not going to there's been term
12:56 am
stegman in the past. maybe i'm so used to that with this in that area in fact there's been an agreed leaders statement after every apec summit since one thousand nine hundred ninety three this is not the way i pick conferences are supposed to be aimed and this will be a huge disappointment to the hosts pap and you get particularly the prime minister . it was an argument over trade that caused the break down the trade disputes between the united states and china is so serious that apec leaders couldn't find any common ground they could put into words there are differing visions on particular elements in regards to trade and those prevented there from being full consensus on the communique document the leaders agreed that instead of a traditional leaders decoration issue they would. leave it there and sort of in this chair.
