11:00 pm
and run with the depravity is that we men are facing a win when they saw thirty six it says in the office as from amnesty international image red thank you for your time we appreciate it. thank you we're talking sport a little earlier than usual on today's grid because paul a football match in argentina is turning into way more than just a football match yes it is dubbed it the final to end all finals but there's a bit of a problem with that the two biggest rivals in club football playing for the couple of its adores trophy but the final two and all finals ended before it began when really quite fans attacked a bus carrying bucket unions players heading to the match on saturday what was that for us. there were sporadic clashes like this one between police and river plate fans around the ground before the scheduled kick off then this attack on the baka genius team bus it left two players injured by broken glass others coughing on east tear gas to. their star player carlos davis said they were in
11:01 pm
no fit state but we applied to play firstly the kickoff was delayed by two and a half hours the sixty six thousand river plate fans inside the stadium waited and waited for the new authorities in the game to twenty four hours in the way of the negative i thought it's not a war it's football we have to consider the technical the medical and the professionals and we've decided that neither of the teams meet the conditions and we're in agreement we're here to support them not make demands. they came streaming out the second leg of the cup believe but the lot is final a victim of the violence that has blighted arjen time for them for years leading to a ban on away fans we. didn't know what was going on we were just waiting to barry singh embarrassing that we can't organize events like this in this country anything you know you. didn't even tell us what was going on they never said the game had
11:02 pm
been suspended there was just confusion with people saying they're saying they're saying that. really played monumental stadium has now been closed but their traditional storage is costing. down to where perhaps if sunday's game will be played these fans are angry and they're frustrated but the words we're hearing most frequently here are embarrassment and shame shame that they couldn't organize the biggest game in the club's history this had to be postponed because of violence because they were unable to organize the security for the games to go ahead. the first leg two weeks ago at the block a junior stadium was also perspired for a day this time due to heavy rain that game eventually ended in a two two draw and led to days of rising tension ahead of the biggest final in latin american club football between two of the game's greatest rivals but it was attention to them to violence and dodge in time for the. now as it stands unless stung also heard any different the match is set to go ahead so let's go back
11:03 pm
to him. daniel how exactly are they going to make sure can get monumental safely on this match and go ahead. everything is different today we're standing in the same spot we were twenty four hours ago then there was a threat of violence in the air there was aggression there were police clashing with drunken river plate supporters today the big difference is that the prefix toward a kind of militarized police force have been brought in to run the security operation you can probably see them behind me getting into place it's a much more professional while established a coordinated operation and they i'm sure will make sure that that bucket juniors boss gets into the stadium without any problems i think also from baucus point of view they drove in a bus with the block emblem on the front of the boss on the side of the bus into one of my many would call enemy territory that in itself was was dangerous but i
11:04 pm
think despite the fact the baka don't want the game to be played today they want a day another day or two to recover all this saying they want the game to be canceled altogether they be given that cup that's being looked at by the commie ball the foot with authorities i suspect without much chance of that happening but right up until an hour or two ago there was still some doubts that this game today and if in doubt five hours time would take would would actually go ahead they're now saying that it will do and as i say the military operation the police operation very firmly in place in a very different atmosphere here today now everything that you saw happen on saturday there was a lot of damage georgians on football's reputation what start going to mean in reality apart from being embarrassing. well i think the inquest into what went on yesterday on saturday is still going on it's an issue between the city authorities the national authorities i mean to put it into its
11:05 pm
political context a week from now we have the world's leaders arriving in one osiris for the g. twenty summit will have president trump and putin from right across right across the world it's a huge opera security operation the biggest argentina has ever had to put on. a huge embarrassment in a way to the argentine government a week before that happens they cannot be shown to be to be able to organize a football match ok it's a huge football match it's one of the biggest that they've ever hosted here in the cyrus but it didn't go ahead because of a failure in the in the security operation so that's something that will rest very heavily on the minds of the politicians all of the security forces here in argentina ahead of that g twenty summit now there was so much build up to this before yesterday we were doing a lot of it ourselves how's that been tempered in a series now. yeah i mean i think we have to remind ourselves every now and then there is a game of football going to be played the south to noon here in about five hours
11:06 pm
time in many ways the events of saturday have overshadowed what was looking to be a fantastic game of football they drew two two in the first leg in the bucket to continue a stadium two weeks ago the match very nicely poised i think many people feeling that river plate might be the favorites to win it playing in their own in their own stadium but a lot of the river fans the normal river and booker juniors fans really shaking their heads in indignation and shame in the last few days thinking how is it comes to this i mean it's only football i mean it's a phrase which is those who don't much like what we hear often bandied about the football is a huge passion here it's a huge part of the culture but when it descends into violence as it as it did yesterday it really does temper what should be a reason to rejoice again before that we should all be enjoying so yes it certainly has been tempered but we hope that will be put to one side briefly at least when the game kicks off for you know for an hour and
11:07 pm
a half of what we hope will be joyous football let's hope you get to enjoy enjoy the match later on daniel schorr i'm a force in one of saris thank you very much. well river plate vs barca genius is arguably the fiercest rivalry in an argentinian football culture that has often been prone to violence in twenty thirteen the football association banned away supporters from all stadiums after a fine was killed during a match between a studio and la noose near one of saris violence between groups of neighborhood friends known as brothers goes way back though to the early twentieth century dozens of fans have been killed in the past twenty years the ban was partially lifted this year but still applied to the big five of baka river independent and sunlit enzo both legs of the upper limits or as final had a ban on away fans but that was no help at the second leg on saturday of course as the baka bus was routed through an area with a lot of river plate supporters not just time to give you
11:08 pm
a bit of reaction so all this a few hours before what we hope will be kickoff. saying that passion has been confused with vandalism and violence the whole world has its eyes on this final and we shame ourselves and diego saying the final shouldn't go ahead yet one day isn't enough to figure out how to keep everyone safe well if it does go ahead the baka juniors players will be back here in the away dressing room this video from saturday shows some of them trying to breathe properly again after the effects of the tear gas others being patched up from the broken glass no serious injuries but not the way to prepare for the biggest match of your club football career well far it will be back with more at eighteen hundred g.m.t. going back to daniel in buenos aires as well for now and you back to come all. think of all elizabeths just said on facebook maybe just call it
11:09 pm
a tie and move on. and also thank you for your comments what's both already yes it's a great we can move things around we're very flexible here thank you for watching on facebook live if you are with us there we've got a story coming up for you now about the effect social media can have on your mental health that's right friends ironically to educate us and then later the man set to lead the house intelligence committee when the u.s. congress returns in january he's hit out at the president's live report from washington coming out. hello again it's good to have you back well we did see some very heavy rain showers passing across iraq and into iran some of those rain showers cause some deadly flooding across the region and you can see right there but by the time we get to monday most of the showers are going to be leaving iraq but still a major problem over here for iran we have to see those heavy rain showers extending all the way down across parts of the gulf now dog is going to see the
11:10 pm
rain showers as well over the next few days to be here on tuesday much better conditions across much of the east but we are going to see some rain showers coming to play here across parts of turkey as well as into many places across the eastern mediterranean well that one weather system we are watching is going to be passing across doha bring some rain showers in the area not only for bahrain but then making its way across over towards the u.a.e. so for but maybe dubai you can be seeing some rain showers as well some of the showers could be locally heavy at times down towards misc ott not looking too bad few with a temperature of about twenty seven degrees as we go towards tuesday and then very quickly down towards cape town over the next few days things do not look as good as what they have that we did have some nice conditions but we are going to see some more showers coming into play here with a high on monday of twenty one degrees and then as we go towards tuesday rain with a temperature of eighteen.
11:11 pm
once welcomed now fear. dividing a nation. al-jazeera explores germany's long term economic strategy of pursuing immigrants from the arab world i feel more judgment on syria. much money it does or if it should get those people put up think that it's been the it's one german and i'm not the new germans on al-jazeera. al-jazeera. and. when every.
11:12 pm
and what's trending his saudi prince saying the cia can't be trusted on the show
11:13 pm
two it's been an interesting development we're going to be looking at another one from the u.s. political side of things just a moment and more from the well of the by syria qatar saudi arabia and that op ed from the daughters of democracy that's why we don't actually very consequential from his daughters that's what's trending to some but i don't see we're talking. about the man who is set to lead the house intelligence committee when the u.s. congress returns in january has accused the u.s. president of dishonesty over his response to the murder of jamal khashoggi just the latest criticism of the president from leading u.s. politicians on this subject we have got alan fischer in washington d.c. to talk through this one alan what has adam schiff had to say. bottom chef raise the idea that donald trump might be going easy on the saudis because of his business interests and his business connection with saudi arabia you remember just on thursday he was asked whether or not he believed that the saudi crown prince
11:14 pm
mohammed bin salman was responsible for ordering the murder of jamal khashoggi then he said maybe he did maybe didn't the cia didn't make a recommendation in their report the adam schiff is seeing is that he has also seen intelligence and he admits he hasn't seen everything that the president may have seen but he says he's also seen intelligence and he thinks that odds with what the president is telling the people across the united states. this will not be the work alone of the intelligence committee it'll be or responsible to make sure that we're getting good intelligence on not just the murder of marcus shogi but also saudi policies of a god or in yemen and that the congress is informed that we can make good policy decisions that we can true tell if the president is misrepresenting the matter to the american people so that we're we have a foreign policy is driven by american interests not by some interest of the president. so that will be our responsibility well that was actually slightly
11:15 pm
different from the clip i thought we were going to run and that adam schiff says that he doesn't think that the president is being truthful with the american people and he says that he wants his intelligence committee to look at business links between donald trump and saudi arabia because you remember that on the campaign trail and over the last couple of years all the less so since he got in office donald trump has been talking about how he makes millions of dollars from saudi arabia and we know that his hotels are doing very well with block bookings from saudi government contractors but don't for one minute think it's just democrats that are involved in this we're also hearing from republicans who are deeply concerned about what donald trump has been seeing just from utah senator mike lee who is a big supporter of donald trump in fact was being toted at one point as a possible head of the cia a by the white house where he said he has also seen intelligence and it certainly odds with what the president is telling people and he
11:16 pm
says there has to be a greater investigation no there are those in both the senate and the house who are saying that maybe it's time for the cia to issue its report and put make it public that's unlikely to happen because the cia would be deeply concerned that its intelligence sources would perhaps be compromised there but we know that there are senators who have called on the white house to compile a port under. which ask whether on. they believe mohammed bin salman was responsible for the modern no donald trump might want to walk away from this but the white house has got to produce a report within ninety days that gives its findings into that question and its reasons for those findings and on the back of that if congress isn't happy they can ask for sanctions to be placed against muhammad bin salman the saudi crown prince so this is an ongoing problem for donald trump he might be trying to brush it away by saying who knows whether he did it we don't know the politicians are saying we
11:17 pm
think we do know and we want answers alan fischer in washington d.c. with that update thank you alan. now a committee from the british parliament has gotten its hands on thousands of secret documents from inside facebook and no surprise the top bosses at facebook i'm happy about that the files was seized as part of an inquiry into the cambridge analyser days a company or the one which is accused of harvesting information from millions of facebook accounts. included in the case is said to be some of those on e-mail correspondence actually these documents were taken off to what's being called an extraordinary move by that parliament tree committee before we talk more about that some background with reveal a time regionalism. privacy the effect on facebook more generally and a lot of attitudes about uses and how they feel about facebook as well well it's become a bit a battle between politicians and the social media giant facebook has faced a lot of criticism this year for using algorithms that may have prioritized misleading news and misinformation in people's feeds the start of
11:18 pm
a happened apparently during the u.s. presidential election in twenty sixteen now in march it was reported that cambridge and that's a car british political consulting firm harvested data from millions of uses and much of that scandal resulted in many wondering how much would they use facebook prompting some to leave the site altogether now severed by the pew research center note that how americans are changing their relationship with facebook and the research shows that young adults between eighteen and twenty nine have cut back the time they spend on facebook fifty four percent say they have adjusted their privacy settings in the past twelve months and most notably forty four percent of younger uses that aged eighteen to twenty nine said that they deleted the facebook app from their phone in the past year and that's nearly four times the amount of users aged sixty five and older who have done so this is of are around twelve percent. but the
11:19 pm
network has also tried to make improvements a one major change was around the news feed which prioritises content from uses friends and family reducing the amount of non advertising content from publishers and also brands and the aim is to create a deeper connection and interaction between uses. and mark zuckerberg shed this update eight months ago off of the cambridge analytical scandal including steps that face that was taking to address the issue he promised to investigate all apps that had access to large amounts of information and to conduct a full audit of any app with suspicious activity he also said that he would restrict develop his data access to prevent abuse and also make sure that uses understand which apps they've allowed to access their data by making sure the privacy settings were more available to everyone and there are. more updates on the facebook new site addressing issues like hate speech transparency reports on inauthentic behavior and also various methods to protect use the data at the moment
11:20 pm
it's still unclear if there are any legal moves that facebook will be making to prevent the publication of these most recent documents we would like to get your thoughts on the story this message just use the hash tag aging is good thanks for here i'm actually going to play devil's advocate actually with some of the stuff or he has just said because this is showing us some people are starting to reduce their facebook usage but before we speak to a guest about how all that is affecting it just have a look at this facebook numbers just to remind yourself of the bigger picture one and a half billion daily active users two billion monthly active users so you know we talk about a little under a third of the planet essentially using facebook every month and they have thirty five minutes spent by people on the platform each day i suspect that would actually be a conservative estimate even with those reductions that really that was talking about so that's just a reminder of the big picture larry maggot's with us now c.e.o. of connect safely dot org an internet privacy and security organization advising companies including facebook on safety issues larry and it's always nice to see you
11:21 pm
with us on skype from palo alto so let's talk about the se we've been going through some of those numbers first of all. is facebook being really affected by all these when you look at the end result of uses people on facebook using the platform every day all these scandals what effect do you think they're really having in the end i think they would deny that they're being adversely affected but i think that as you pointed out fittingly among youth they are being affected although it's hard you know because young people in pulling away from facebook for years now and they've been moving towards instagram which of course is owned by facebook so that's not a net loss at all for the company but i think that you know even though we've talked about if over the years every time there's any kind of scandal or privacy issue people talk about quitting facebook this time i think we're starting to feel some impact not enormous you're absolutely right in pointing out those two billion plus monthly active users but it's certainly among my friends in the u.s. maybe journalists who are more sensitive to that issue i'm seeing people complaining more and i am thing
11:22 pm
a few people drop off larry what about and we mentioned this at the start of this story and that is that actually the issue in the u.k. with the government of the parliament this seizing all these internal documents. governments want to go off to facebook done that they want to do you think this has become a bit of a not a celebrity cause but something which they just won't let go of. well it is i think the government feds and certainly the u.k. and the european commission the united states have an interest in making sure that facebook is first of all a subscriber you its own privacy policy thinking of all disappearing to the a european general data privacy rules and just generally treating customers are you there is a privacy properly this is an extraordinary case because you have this lawsuit that happening in my neighborhood in california where this company which is actually a company whose purpose was to show you pictures of people in bikini women i presume in bikinis they're not even in business anymore they're under but they were involved in a lawsuit with facebook and have these documents now if the documents are what what
11:23 pm
we're being illegible it could show that facebook is violating privacy and it's extracting information from users but of course the mere fact that these are allegations of i mean if true so first of all if parliament can get their hold hands on the documents they'll get a better view as to what this company alleges and at that point i suspect facebook will respond because they'll be some very serious allegations out there about it but again we don't know yet what this what this cache of data is going to show it's just funny larry there have been coals for the likes of sheryl sandberg the senior chief operating officer to resign from to take more responsibility ultimately does and with that the buck does stop with them doesn't it. yeah well look this is a private it's a publicly held company in that it shares are still in the stock market but it's a private company and whether mark that your burger showroom foundered resign or change their role is really up to them english there's some kind of government action against them but bottom line is that these are the people who have been
11:24 pm
running the company for years if they're the good people who brought the company into profitability i remember when they went public on the stock market and they failed for a while cheryl mark another executive managed to turn the company around i think that most shareholders are very happy with the performance of dr breggin founder and i want to keep him there having said that i think that have had some issues in the past he is maturing he has you know he started this company in his early twenty's in college but he i've known him for over the years and i think in mature nevertheless i think this company might want to bring in some other executives to make sure that they're behaving in the way that it's going to allow them to sustain themselves especially in a regulatory environment that we're in now both in europe the us and of course other parts of the world as well interesting larry magid good to talk to you as always thank you for joining us thank you well facebook's had its share of problems as we say from data privacy to online abuse hate speech all covered in this special documentary cold inside facebook secrets of the social network that is well worth
11:25 pm
a watch and of course you can visit listening post in the show's section of down to zero dot com they have comprehensively comprehensively covered facebook for many years now you can always have a look at the website now death to america is that a phrase that americans both government and public should take seriously its usage as a chance in a slogan is often held up by president donald trump as an example of teheran's intentions as what he calls a state sponsor of terror but some iranians are now saying americans shouldn't take it literally so i must ravi has that story from to one. i it's a phrase that has come to define decades of hostility between the two countries. death to america is a rallying call for iranian leaders to bring demonstrators to the streets it's a polarizing statement but many defend it as a minimum response for decades of harmful american policies in the middle east with
11:26 pm
their hands tied politically and economically for years some say the least they can do is raise their voice i think this foreign policy would be the same then that segment then public. i think if. there was a dick cheney. and no one is to say that i don't think you'll see any change in u.s. foreign policy but the slogans critics say in an era of trouble it's a problem of messaging giving his administration political ammunition to use against iran. in some corners of american political society iran supporters say trump is the problem during a visit to tehran nation of islam leader louis farrakhan said trump's policies in the middle east could trigger a global conflict no chance to bring up yet. but he. did you being. for you the world you. not
11:27 pm
hearing any of you bring up yet great nation. has been on earth in the. years when pressed by a local reporter to say the phrase seemingly a political stunt the seasoned civil rights activist responded i know she. will iran and. the teaching of iran they have a right to but i'm not sure i'm going to let. farrakhan has been an unrelenting critic of successive american governments but even for a controversial figure like him uttering a phrase so incendiary in the united states was going too far. for decades the language of protest in iran has been dominated by the three words
11:28 pm
death to america but opinions have been split and in the wake of more sanctions iranians are again asking if that slogan accurately defines public opinion here for many iranians it's time to abandon the politics of the past. the slogan death to america is wrong we shouldn't want any country when we want someone. for us. our officials say death to america but some of their children now live and study there. for the slogan is not a good thing because it explicitly calls the other side hostility thank you i never said it i never will not all people in iran say it's not anti-american demonstrations are often fueled by anger even hate speech and despite varying viewpoints it's difficult to do no u.s. actions have done more damage than any iranian name calling. the same old.
11:29 pm
