data from the websites of conservative american think tanks and the u.s. senate microsoft president says the hackers also targeted candidates in france his recent presidential election the kremlin has dismissed these allegations calling them part of a quote which. he is believed to have been the last known nazi collaboration suspect still alive and living in the united states but today ninety five year old yucky poing touched down here in germany twenty five years after efforts began to deport him during the second world war he worked at a nazi labor camp in poland where inmates were massacred but it's not certain that he will be prosecuted here in germany this report now with exclusive pictures of polly's deportation from a.b.c. news. after living quietly in new york for decades this was the moment history caught up with. us or thirties arresting him for deportation to

germany expelling the ninety five year old despite his clear frailty there's been a priority for the trumpet ministration born in what was then poland poly arrived in america in one nine hundred forty nine concealing his nazi service from immigration officials eight years later his application for citizenship was granted but in the one nine hundred ninety s. investigators caught up with him he admitted to them having trained at a nazi s.s. camp in trav nikki the site of one of the holocaust worst massacres claiming the lives of some six thousand jewish citizens a judge then revoked pollies american citizenship in two thousand and three a year later the us authorities ordered his deportation. until now although germany had refused to accept him on the grounds that he isn't a german and also because german investigators say the evidence against him is inconclusive. but the u.s. ambassador lobbied strongly behind the scenes saying berlin had

a moral obligation to admit a man suspected of committing crimes in germany's name he's ninety five he's probably going to die some points. he is a little bit sickly and so we wanted to make sure that he didn't die in peace and comfort in the united states but that he was brought back somewhere to to face justice on diplomatic rather than legal grounds the german government has now accepted that argument. we'll have more on this i'm joined tonight from los angeles by rabbi marvin hier he is founder of the simon vs untold center a jewish human rights association for a buyer it's good to have you on the program again you know we've been reporting on this story this afternoon and the headlines have been the last living. nazi collaborator to be deported it has a lot of financial of the in vets are we doing a service or

a disservice to the search for justice for victims of the whole what caused by saying that he's the last living nazi collaborator i don't think he is the last living collaborator there are many more. let me say something i think is very important everyone focuses on the fact that he's ninety five years ago though and focuses on the fact that he lived in freedom he have a complete and full life unlike the least well massive hit by the tribe it's in my county and in other camps they must say good men women and children some of them two three years old. who never had a chance to live a life so there is no pity on the fact that the ninety five year old man has been brought to justice he lived a full life unlike that of his victims i have no pity on him whatsoever what you say that he has been brought to justice he has been deported germany agreed to take

him but the prosecutors here in germany spend all of their time trying to track down nazi war criminals they say that there is still not enough evidence to charge this man with anything so where do we go from here. well first of all germany changed its rules before they only accept the eyewitness testimony then they agree to documentation testimony if he has a whole list as one of the gods now let me say one thing the trend gods there is many of them it was the bionic federico there are all kinds of criminals they all say the same thing most of them if you listen to them they say they have nothing to do with these crimes they were for all intents and purposes short order

chefs in the kitchen have tried it that's why they try to argue the nazis trained to be vicious gods their sole purpose to exhibit their cruelty on the take the us it is impossible to believe that he was a trendy god and that he cleaned heads and never committed any crimes and germany said that they accept the written documentation not eyewitness testimony they change the rules and we're hopeful that under these new rules evidence will be filed then on lists that is the name of p. is that enough with what establishes guilt we knew that it took most of this century so far to get this deportation to take place and finally it was germany who agreed to take him and on moral grounds the moral

obligation this is what the foreign minister said the moral obligation to take in anyone who was working in service of the german government at the time is that in your eyes it is that progress. well look it's not all doom and progress but it's progress right she's lived his life in the united states working really in the streets without a guilty conscience to what he has done let him live god's all around him with police taking him up and taking him to our caller proceedings he doesn't deserve an almost life rabbi marvin hier founder of the simon wiesenthal center joining us tonight from los angeles or by we certainly appreciate your time tonight thank you well here's a look at some of the other stories now that are making headlines around the world afghan security forces have fought off

middle is the w's award winning correspondent for abdul kareem now up to karim has just launched his first book at an event here in the heart of berlin the book delves into the complex picture of arab communities in germany and abroad and it is a call for a better understanding of the importance of cultural differences. jaafari . has worked at don't develop for ten years primarily as an anchor and reporter he and his team have already received several awards now his first book is being published. this book is a journey of discovery through our communities both here in germany and abroad what values do they stand for what moves them what do they think what do they want. without cliches or prejudices jochum don't carry mediates between two worlds raised in lebanon and switzerland he's a resident of berlin his coverage has included female genital mutilation forced

a good thing so much about the job from the team's book is an appeal for greater understanding among cultures and a battle cry against racism. we're watching t w news still to come what went wrong the coach of germany's national soccer team thinks is a growing over his disastrous world cup. and the disaster it was art it was you know get the business is us chinese trade one is a disaster they are trades a resident it's a wonder exactly it's getting worse all the time it is in fact just in today's time no less friend the united states and china are set to impose further tariffs on each other to the chewed off sixteen billion dollars in on the same day no less the chinese delegation will touch down in the united states get this for talks aimed at resolving the country's trade dispute for u.s. president donald trump says he's not expecting much from those talks and is likely

to press ahead with a further two hundred billion dollars worth of tariffs on china american businesses also ending the long. the world's two biggest economies may still be willing to talk to one another but behind the scenes they're busy adding items to their terrorist hit lists. among the two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese goods the u.s. is planning to tax next are babies car seats and bicycles. as a hearing taking place inside this building in washington american businesses had a chance to express their opinion of their government's efforts trade spat with china. we've encouraged them strongly encourage them to negotiate with china not to just you know through a tariff walls going to for tat. some american businesses even fear they'll be affected by both chinese and u.s.

tariffs. we have some members that are finding out that the yarns in fabrics that shipped to china are going to be subject to a twenty five percent tariff and then the finished products they shipped from china back united states are going to be subject to twenty five percent or so they're getting taxed twice and that's not good not good also describes the chances of a breakthrough a trade talks set to take place between china and the u.s. from thursday u.s. president donald trump says he doesn't expect much asked for china. we hope to result during the trade talks. but as you know we normally don't like to make any comments before the actual negotiations and we hope both sides can sit down quietly and dedicate themselves to achieving a good result on the basis of the parish the trust country the holiday. but those talks will take place on the same day as the two countries impose a further sixteen billion dollars worth of tariffs on each other hardly

a foundation for trust. meanwhile we've been seeing the dollar day party u.s. president all trying lashed out at the federal reserve's move towards tightening months from policy in an interview trump said he was quote not thrilled with the rate hikes the president was there refused to say whether he believed in the fed's independence a long held tradition to keep decisionmaking free from short term political concerns now chairman jerome powell has said the federal reserve will not bow to pressure it's expected to raise its key rates twice more this year another two times in twenty nineteen for the forms used when i want to bring our financial correspondent in now say fisherman ski is all in a wall street sophie well it wasn't the move that trump wanted he made that very clear he's not afraid of saying so despite the fact that the central bank's meant to be independent. well have announced from couldn't care less last weekend's

as a fund raising event of the g.o.p. he apparently behind closed doors so told some people that powell is not the fed chair he had thought he wanted powell to be a provider of cheap money but now this guy is raising rates twice actually already and he is finding more apt to rate from something like two and a half percent so two more rate hikes this year one rate hike at least and then on on the record in an interview with a white house term said that in other countries and economies the federal reserve banks would do more to have their leaders and the economy trump one one thing to look good to be perceived as a president who's helping the economy grow even if it's at the cost of rising inflation the fats in the meantime once a stable economy that is not overheating so i guess these two sides are going to have a hard time coming together and right we've certainly been hearing about what troll

wants and has to say on the matter but we do know of course that jackson hole is coming up we'll hear more from powell what can we expect him to focus on sophie. oh powell was going to talk about monetary policy in a changing economy and of course the conditions and rules for the global economy has been changing rapidly within the last year trampas creating chaos in trade policy well maybe in order to rebuild everything bigger and better i don't know but right now the e.c.b. and the fed and all these bankers have to figure out how to handle one of their most important instruments to control inflation the interest rates they probably are going to talk about the strength of currencies and maybe they're going to argue about it and walk away they have to maybe level that policy in order to avoid investors' fleeing from one to the other countries have sure got a lot to talk about save szymanski for us in new york so he thank you.

well it's game time this week in the german city of cologne with hundreds of thousands of gamers flocking to the world's largest event for computer and video games the. brits dived into the crowd for us and it was anything but sedate. that. let's bang and you're inside the game not just on screen the recent mega had fortnight breaks with tradition rather than playing the survival game three games come visitors can test their real world skills playing is free anyway and has attracted one hundred twenty five million people in one year the community is why the game is so successful even little things like new emotes or new skins are very well received in that kind of explode within the community. and these features are what players pay for if.

others have reached a point where they can get paid for playing. hardcore gamers read the heart of games come when it started ten years ago and they still are but each sports has brought them from the basement to the stage. every summer pull them on most but we used to be happy to get a mouse pad or hardware or anything really now if you play in the national league it's one of the half to two thousand euros per month further up you can make five digits on the visit who are good for you but you could spend it if it's the largest ever games come with over one thousand exhibitors ranging from p.c. titles on hard work to mobile products and console games. virtual reality is now developed mostly for amusement parks and movie theaters. at the links all sick the richer reality hasn't really picked up in sales and maybe

more of an experience game that is if you like home with the what's really driving the markets i asked an expert buys a car to the top of the older generation as the fastest growing user base those over fifty already make up a quarter of all gamers and that continues to grow. that means of course the supply of games for this target group is growing it is a. fixed games for the mass market are often simple and don't require complicated skills much like these classics that are making a comeback as internet games or can be played directly on mobile devices. gaming is only one of the reasons smart phones have made games acceptable everywhere to everyone now new fears me i've got some very important business to do here. he's been like that for the rest of the day ok that's a pretty good buy to get those stores a one day

a game that was not very seriously examiners they had yet to germany's soccer coach your welcome look he presented his where you could call it a breakdown today of what he thinks it broke down at this summer's world cup debacle he did it behind closed doors no surprise that a meeting meant to start writing this ship that is germans are on their way to a closed door summit the most influential people of german soccer they were hosted by the german football federation which needs a reboot after germany's disastrous performance at the world cup head coach. and manager and of appeal both were asked to lead the crisis in. germany crashed out of the first round of this year's soccer world cup after winning it all in twenty fourteen shocking performances cause disbelief among players and fans as the reigning world champions failed to qualify for the knockout stages during the most intense exchange of recent years as he so later called summit live supposedly

produced some answers as to why germany failed so miserably and presented his plan for the near future. two more meetings are set for this and next week the latter of which will be public as you ask him live also announces his squad for the upcoming you a fun nations the games. are here something that's not top secret the fastest man in history is currently down under and he's ready to stake his claim as a professional footballer same boat he went through his first training session with australian club central coast mariners on tuesday he's currently just on trial and he wants to prove to the doubters that they're wrong and he wants to earn a contract in the process. for a thirty two year old who has never been paid to kick a ball in his life it's an implausible drame bots used same bolt is no ordinary thirty two year old the jamaican is attempting to make the ultimate crossover from

a live peak sprint champion to professional football he started his trial with a strain called the central coast mariners on tuesday and knows he has a lot of hard work ahead of him this is my my first play a good new chance to train and to. get to a level there's a professional footballer so i don't know what to expect some just here to push more so all eyes are focused on the new arrival and the trial is seen by many as a me a p.r. stunt the merits of gained invaluable worldwide coverage following the trolls announcements the odds are certainly against both winning a professional contract but that hasn't to start in the olympic legend who is determined to silence his doubters three people i was going to say what i want to say just like when i was in shock and feel people say a lot of things about me but i always prove them wrong is just another moment for me to prove people wrong that mentality should at least give paul to fighting chance a even if the dream turns out to be a short lived one it's

a win win scenario for both club and. our here's a reminder of the top story that we're following for you u.s. president on what trump's former personal attorney michael cohen has pleaded guilty to federal fraud charges go and have been under investigation for bank in tax fraud and for allegedly helping to pay hush money to women claiming to have had affairs with u.s. president donald trump. you're watching the w. news live from berlin after a short break i'll be back to take you through the day that the sea of.
