5:02 pm
properly see a man wearing a t. shirt with that white helmets logo and he's apparently helping a group of people remove a number of bodies off of the truck and judging on the uniforms on these bodies well they're most likely either syrian soldiers or pro-government fighters and in fact at the end of the video what we see is this man with a white helmets t. shirt holding a syrian flag that was pulled out from the bodies but since this video has emerged while the white helmets has distanced themselves from this incident confirming that this man although he was a white helmets member but he's since been fired because he's violated the code of conduct of the group referring specifically to this video that was posted well they say the man was acting independently and not in the capacity as a white helmets member but despite the ongoing criticism on what helmets the western mainstream media has been praising the white helmets as heroes and film document in their words even won an oscar earlier this year here's a sample to be nominated for a nobel peace prize one of the subject of a new documentary on netflix the white house also known as
5:03 pm
a serious civil defense or a group of volunteers who were the first to arrive at the scene of an asteroid when the bombs fall a small group of volunteers called the white house minutes run into a smoldering rubble and rescue trapped victims still goes to. show why. it's a. way the problem the reality of war torn syria and what these mainstream media reports often omit is the fact that white helmets happen in cuba before repeating. a terrorist group operating in syria and this latest video on twitter certainly is far from the only incident that the white house is has been criticized.
5:04 pm
so as you can see this video really is just the latest in a string of control for sea surrounding a white helmet script. journalist n s a b t has covered the syrian crisis only ground many times during the conflict she says the video once again demonstrates the group's questionable ethics this is not the first time that we've saying the whitehall nuts being videoed participating and various atrocities in surrey and going back as far as two thousand and fifteen and the only reason that the white helmets have again put out a statement is of course because typing court out not let's just examine the incident it took place and thought it was an attack on this area an ira bomb aid the funding and advice on the old south to damascus highway not all over that is
5:05 pm
there an arab army soldiers according to my sources on the grounds were killed during the i touch but we're not all killed in action many all thought i was there an arab army soldiers were murdered was slaughtered as prisoners of war that both days with and clearly dismembered a new to light it and this white home it operates a was seen clambering over the bodies of the syrian arab army soldiers this is not the first time that this has being seen and has been photographed and has been questioned as regards them moral and their their ethics. well in neighboring iraq suicide bombers have killed at least three people in mosul shopping district the area was recaptured from still several months ago and the country's prime minister said the total liberation of the city will come within days that's the now the heavy fighting there is a fiction thousands of civilians remain trapped.
5:06 pm
really a little. bit about. the likelihood that puts it on the t.v. but i know you have a lot of coffee a lot of. talk politics to go like that like obviously the whole of the. love but obviously part of her look i don't know if you have. found it going to join a club and then join a coveted because. you couldn't join up the lower part out. well meanwhile experts have been speculating over who could replace my soul leader abu bakar al baghdadi if his death is confirmed it follows reports of his possible elimination by a russian airstrike but unlike al baghdadi who had
5:07 pm
a religious background the two main contenders to replace him have a very different history. and i had allergy mightily both served as security officials under saddam hussein and following the u.s. led invasion of iraq in two thousand and three they both joined the sunny insurgency part of which later transformed into islamic state military analysts come out alarms thinks a disaster could be avoided if the u.s. led coalition didn't destroy iraq institutions when the army of saddam was disbanded a lot of the baath is for disgruntled to join the sunni insurgency it is use forces and also against iranian backed militias a lot of them are not ideological supporters of isis and radical islam but they feel aggrieved by the iraqi government's u.s. was very heavy handed again to sunni arab tribes certainly united states and united kingdom ignored all the advice given to them about dismantling the iraqi state
5:08 pm
specially the iraqi military and security forces because one thing getting worse and destroyed iraq is three systematically have led to this disaster. now there's been more protests in central london and members of the english defense league took to the streets to vent their anger at a spate of islamist terror attacks bunch they were met by anti fascist groups who organize a counter rally chanting slogans saying refugees are welcome in the country there was a large police presence but as artie's north misreported that's only added to the tension. now that's a another protest at least that's how it's being here in london at the moment these are two small but very strong demonstrations here. we're standing with the english defense league they have come out today in response to the number of terrorist attacks that we have had here in the u.k. just over the past couple of months that saying enough is enough but we need to
5:09 pm
shore up islamic fundamentalism because it's all for the reason that very angry about it as i say a small number of people very very emotional and it being very very heavily policed then i'll bet you when they come around and see just a little bit on the other side i think the police keep them very well apart but those are the unseen actually save that unites against fascism and other affiliates agree on they all the incredibly rocky that's about forty fifty of them at the last count but they're very noisy and that say these people the english defense league have no place on the street the person they want to prevent them from marching that every time he'd yell about the anti fascist come out while we speak to a few of the people here they think we're going to temper that. against the rise of prism as i'm for viet fascism in the u.k. words can't describe how much oil takes. every thing they stand for there are no
5:10 pm
secret fascists and this by by spinning the saudis we spy on poor freedom. no more surely lower in this country. i'm a patriot no righteous there is a difference because all one christian values is a by me righteous as i see these demonstrations becoming pretty much a regular occurrence i was another one on the same street actually just a couple of months ago and even if they're not big enough not that big own destruction there are hundreds of police if anything beyond the helicopter up in the sky i just a police boys a very small but as i say very aggressive demonstration. the third group games of the twenty seventeen confederations cup poppy producing some big results and for our special coverage neil harvey and stuck on a more are insulting. booked into the black sea resort of sochi where the group
5:11 pm
a action has concluded the results are in mexico to russia one portugal for you zealand no alongside me as always thank all of our sense of history that the big game of the day russia mexico here we're hoping that the house will go through will be very good for the tournament wasn't some of the off open the scoring for russia on twenty four minutes at a very crisp british it was across the right time of the mexican goalkeeper and you thought my well steady the nerves break wasn't to mexico came back into the game in equalizing five minutes church itself needs to look to manage your game see a game out didn't follow. the mexican law this is a shocking way to lose our teams one long period brainstorms and he grew up in prayer for his one hundred first appearance of the russian national team was in no man's land but the hosts arrived affect the tournament perhaps not because they're still going to the very best like alexi sanchez cristiano ronaldo but disappointing for russia ok sky out mexico go through though they were fancied too and of course
5:12 pm
when in the group the big favorites european champions portugal is have a look at their a couple of the goals from not matching with who else but christiane around there who opened the scoring on thirty three minutes bread and butter for a striker of his quality a penalty and look at a confident smashes it home then came five minutes later thirty eighth minute to a big summer signing for manchester city but not a silver sliding in for that kind of money effect you want to see a bit of bravery in the box two more goals as well like the fact that new zealand were here playing top quality competition or eventually just outclassed now i'm sure russia the news elizabeth thinking again we didn't do too well but great sort of test of their mettle for the world cup let's go now to our correspondent you know neil who's been outside the stadium and inside the stadium. what was the atmosphere like when russia scored that goal i imagine there was a heck of a lot of hope was forty two thousand people inside the stadium and about forty one facing them are russian. they absolutely blew the roof off arena case on a lot of hope at the start of each half of the game went on the composure of the
5:13 pm
mexicans really started to show russia just a little bit out of their depth when it came to holding the ball up and trying to get it up front but maybe that's something to learn for that the really big tournament in twelve months time at the world cup but a lot of excitement here before the game as well a lot of summer bro hot side in the top down sun i managed to speak to some of the visitors some of those mexican fountains and most of us were thinking of coming and having a lot of cold people and really has been the opposite like very friendly very like in mexico very open and very willing to help so he has been very very exciting to have these. amazing culture from the russians nowadays well he has some things that are very similar in terms of the culture and all those are very russian of course but we're enjoying very much good use of the weather changes every thirty minutes but aside from that everything is good thought it yeah it's better it's warm water we thought it was going to be like more soviet style but it's very moscow's very

5:19 pm
are making headlines yet again a university professor from connecticut received death threats after an inflammatory post on facebook he called for an end to wind supremacy using an expected filled version of the hashtag let them die. well his post was meant as a comment on the shooting of a republican congressman last week the storm of anger was so intense the compas was temporarily closed while the professor fled to the premises and has since issued a public apology well the latest figures show hate crimes in the u.s. has rocketed in at least six big cities this type of crimes who are at least a twenty percent increase last year kind of open looks now at how racial tension is dividing society reports of hate crimes have been surging across the u.s. headlines in recent months.
5:20 pm
the rise of racially motivated attacks has been a trend in the united states senate the two thousand and sixteen presidential election new york city has seen a twenty four percent rise in hate crimes with twenty percent across the state cincinnati ohio has seen an increase of thirty eight percent while chicago has seen twenty percent but all of this comes as both the press and politicians have reveled in the race when it comes to picking a president and ninety percent of the black vote is ninety percent over what black vote trump has stood up in front of largely white audiences and described black communities in such insulting and ignorant terms i love the signs behind me blacks for truck by like those signs one thing he does know is how to get angry white men to vote for him president obama over the weekend delivering a roll ring and deeply personal appeal to black voters at times it seemed like the election was just all about race we heard about minorities who felt threatened by
5:21 pm
drought and angry white men who voted for him but if you look for such a narrative elsewhere you'd struggle france italy in the netherlands for example don't allow any collecting of statistics based on race or religion and it doesn't. played any role in politics so are they right and america wrong we decided to ask people's opinions on the street i think it's a great thing to get statistics on what people think about in like the different countries that way you can know what type of palaces need to be developed i think they're stirring people up to put one against the other and i believe that. assuming someone's economic or social or political standings based on their races that's really. i think it it opens up a dialogue for people to start talking about what some of those issues might be to have some data down allies so you should could collect statistics or ethnic or religious affiliations has always been used as a kind of path the power in the united states in terms of politics public in the
5:22 pm
democratic party really capitalize on divisions of all sorts and they use this as a wedge to drive. whatever the arguments or whatever the political agenda is. a really actively looking for that wedge issue in order to somehow state that really to steer the public away from the really common issues which are affecting all such aspects of society as with any controversy related to race it's quite apparent that americans don't see eye to eye open r.t. new york. now is less than one hundred days to go before the general election in germany chancellor i'm going to merkel has literally been spending out what our countrymen are storms full. well just to give you a flavor of the ages that she's released her the words are the sparrow which means state army and daughter brought which means some which m.

5:24 pm
and after america's defense secretary admitted us failings in afghanistan last week the pentagon seems to be looking for somebody to blame this fine someone had its first reports to congress since the election the pentagon named pakistan as the single greatest exton all front to him during u.s. sanctions the report refers to what it calls support of afghan insurgents by the pakistani government or during sixteen years although its involvement in afghanistan washington has given a range of reasons why its afghan campaign isn't going to plan. iran is reportedly arming and funding the taleban corruption is a huge challenge in afghanistan that russia is now meddling in afghanistan it's very difficult to succeed on the battlefield when your enemy enjoys external support and safe haven we had the. overt legitimacy lent to the taliban by the russians the problem that the us has in trying to carry out the occupation and
5:25 pm
subdue the population and i mean the real answer here is the u.s. has to get out of afghanistan they claim that they would have resolved everything and they would have won the war if only it wasn't for pakistan or only or if it only wasn't for something else but there are always looking because they aren't able to succeed the. problem that they have in a war that has lasted longer than any other u.s. war in history almost sixteen years now is the fact that the people do not wish to accept the patient. up next and i see international going underground looks into what's behind britain's housing crisis but if you're watching in the u.k. or islands stay with us spinny's think.
5:26 pm
you are watching our. question and more. on the trial that we have spent countless hours poring through documents to tell the story about the ugly side of. corporate media every uses to talk about the. i'm not a pretty clear picture about how disturbing alcool corporate conduct is. these are stories that you know no exception to my parents or your host of america's. worst. i'm john harshman i'll give you what the mainstream media can't go big picture.
5:27 pm
and wouldn't question more on what you're looking for says the. dog. will go deeper investigate and debate all so you can get the big picture. earlier today president obama said of them nothing like a. responsible choice in the people and there is always hope that's what. always seems. to be here's something else tina between us here is that you feel you're placing simpson through so this instance trump has used social media always on the story because it's garbage real. good politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. you somehow want to. have to go right to be first to see what before three of them all can't be good.
5:28 pm
i'm interested always in the waters in the. first sydney. welcome to on contact today we discuss the assault against girls and women with feminists mary lou singleton and my ability how do you create accommodations for transport paul at the same time that we don't overtly or unnecessarily and frank. on the rights of others like when man or children or parents i think children should be able to do whatever they want think how what does it mean to live as a boy or live as a girl other than sexism. with chris hedges. patriarchy across the globe plagues humankind female fetuses are aborted from the womb because they are considered less valuable than males girls are sometimes smothered in infancy women
