russian border with ukraine said they saw no evidence of russian troops and tanks crossing the border the u.n. said it could not independently verify the reports of the russian invasion but a u.n. security council meeting was called upon where its western members push to hold russia responsible russia stop this conflict at least two thousand two hundred twenty people including twenty three children have died in the conflict in eastern ukraine but we've never heard the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. call on key to stop bombing its own people in washington i'm going to check out our team. human rights watch. again called on kiev to provide information on russian fool who journalist. who's been missing in ukraine since the start of august kiev insists it has no information on bree's whereabouts the watchdogs deputy director for europe and central asia sees the

recent years and the figures are publicly available islamic state publishes a corporate style a new report to attract new sponsors the radical group is also social media savvy using it to attract new militants to join their ranks arenacross rev reports. pictures of need slates of corpses of the so-called infidels and photoshop images of western troops involved in flames these are just some of the growth task methods employed by the islamic state illustrated in glossy magazines and online and its attempt to spread its message and message that even al qaida is uncomfortable with visit hannity that is what was striking out can produce some remarkably good visual graphics but nothing on the scale of. the photography is hyper real islamic states markets and techniques are becoming increasingly more professional and widespread as it's propaganda is found in different languages in news updates

videos twitter accounts magazines and on t.v. the democratic they're targeting is you know they're relying on the ignorance of youth distorting the book are wrong of course but they're also using various kinds of. district mannerisms which the youth are familiar with from the street from you tube from twitter and so forth in other words it has a remote look and feel it feels like a media extravaganza but it's suffused with excitement now if we take a look at the cover of the islamic states latest magazine they will see that it's a play on a noah's ark and wish the message is it's either them or the flood and experts say there is controversy and fear to get more followers how are they doing that they are using hate propaganda by showing that paradoxically as killing babies is they also. are i think a remarkably harsh in their language they present their enemy is indeed humanized

terms of some kind of humanity just as the nazis did so they only use pejoratives like crusades while watson nations might be trying to bomb isis out of existence i says itself seems to have learned that those bombs that can breed social media and therefore its existence online gross wrong or that never merino cos of our reporting from london for artsy. brings us fifteen minutes into the program stay with us to learn why not all the european leaders are on the same page when it comes to widening sanctions against russia but on warships that. c.v. is sarkozy it more than the propaganda. it is the state sponsor of russia today programme just words like sabean not like. and i like this guy is

just ridiculous non answer to my question. john is not. part of their safety and sometimes their lives all over the wall to bring people stories none the propaganda channels don't want you to see and we told her some. stuff there we go again we're told the islamic state terrorist group is the worst of the worst and has global ambitions the public is being taught slowly but surely to fear the islamic state it would appear washington continues to attempt to shape it in reshape the middle east. this is the weekly welcome book islamist militants in libya have taken over a part of the us embassy which was evacuated a month ago stuff or opposed to increasing lawlessness in the country with rampaging warlords on their militias seizing control earlier we asked the editor of

the pan african newswire what next. the security situation in libya is becoming even more precarious the united states anticipating this what happened pulled out its personnel and drove them to tunisia well i think the united states is trying to figure out which road to take they have a lot at stake their attempts to remake libya in their own image they may decide to utilize some type of military force to get in and sort of a beachhead in libya but this of course will only spark more animosity and more fighting a possible grow war about those who are opposed to the u.s. backed militias inside the country prominent bahraini human rights activists. why she has been arrested shortly after arriving at the country's report she is flying in from denmark to check on her father also a campaigner who recently went on hunger strike in protest at his own detention we

got the thoughts of a key figure in the bahraini opposition movement not be able to shop themself spent two years deal he seized the courts around the beckon call of the government you would expect to see the judge you were going to. want to she fears that he's got a member of ruling family so you are in a country that does not respect human rights there judiciary system does not meet with international standards i don't of criticism by international what i think rule and dear friend i like back when i did this to them but they don't so far they were going and taking a lot of you know what i defended the court and using the court using the condition system as a tool to attack human rights activist i quit because of what i get nervous to attack people activist in the social media so we are in that more sort of passivity now we have now we have wanted to hold the rifle for a good idea who is in his hunger strike we are worried about this woman they

couldn't because the generation many woman with a daughter many men would go to. slovakia could veto the e.u.'s attempt to impose tougher sanctions against russia this week the country's prime minister called the measures meaningless and kuntar productive adding there is no point in supporting sanctions that could hurt the economy that was echoed by his czech counterpart who wants to revise the block strategy the further restrictions thought to have been agreed by european leaders at a summit in brussels would be the latest escalation in a trade war since small school clampdown on food imports as the e.u. tries to curb the impact of some politicians there have their own ideas on how to ease the pain. one day keeps fourteen of it. germany's agriculture minister believes eating up the food which was supposed to go to russia could help local producers moneywise and also put additional pressure on moscow. early estimates show the e.u. could lose up to seven billion euro over the third inboard not around one hundred

thirty thousand people could end up jobless. european farmers are already demanding compensation polish workers dumped several tons of papers on the e.u. parliament building in brussels they're getting support from some politicians who believe sanctions were a big mistake. especially does was different sanctions than the trade war i know means to improve the situation on the country we have a spiral of exclusion deterrents the german and european economies many people who check to the sanctions right from the start they have a right to feeling that this is not the way to achieving. sanctions or always prove that the political means failed they are useless and they are harming the population sanctions always lead to losses on both sides you can already see the backlash from the sanctions but in the next couple of months it will be even more

obvious. from the beginning it was the wrong approach because sanctions escalated the situation and did not ease the tensions it was clear when the imposed sanctions that there would be a counter reaction and the stakes would be raised now because of that a lot of entrepreneurs as well as the general public in germany has been affected by that. poland's prime minister dumbell tusk is to be the next president he'll take office on the first day of december he's replacing herman room poit who says the e.u. is major challenges for the economy ukraine and britain's place in europe the block's leaders have also nominated italian foreign minister at a rica mughal greeny to be their new foreign policy chief political commentator on the phone dan ski thinks the two new leader shoulder very different political views are not my proved to be a problem for the e.u.'s future. maurine is seen very much as tolerant
