think confederations cup joins in a few minutes as we continue the intellectual debate. and i welcome to all the international live from moscow with me than you hold thanks for choosing us this hour well israel has struck a syrian military position in response to a stray mortar shell fired from across the border the i.d.f. reportedly has an artillery battery in the syrian controlled section of the golan heights the area has been a regular flashpoint between israel and syria for the past fifty years the israeli military issued a statement. in response to projectiles launched from syria the i.d.f. targeted the syrian military artillery position that was the source of the fire this follows five almost identical incidents in the syrian and israeli sections of the go to nights throughout the past week the israeli prime minister has said his

country will not tolerate any spillover from the syrian civil war and will respond to all incoming fire investigative journalist rick starting told us israel is escalating the situation. as the syrian army have been so slow and slowly but surely it is crushing the the armed opposition the terrorists within syria israel is escalating its attacks and its intervention it's really dangerous i mean a couple of facts about that situation number number one is that there's been nobody injured on t.v. in the israeli occupied territory and yet israel has attacked you know as your broadcast just mentioned two syrian soldiers were killed i just a couple of days ago. so it's extremely dangerous it's clearly a violation of syrian sovereignty. thousands of time out in the british capital for though not one day more antigovernment march an associate showed akin to has been following the demonstrations in london. were in central london where thousands

of people have come out onto the streets to protest to resign me government now this is not the first protest taking place in london in recent weeks but it's certainly the biggest lead i've seen recently thousands of people filling the streets marching from the b.b.c. had orders to the words parliament where they're all here they say because they want the story now it's those that have was just going to be away from the steering measures to the handling of breadsticks of the coalition to do you see to the gun was shy judy really gillis is long and people want to me to make him go this is why he got his white between so many so many. people the quality and it's just not fair and just have to be that way on here tonight well as a protest because this will stir to the conservative government as in parts of this nation main concerns education. of the public universe is on the

label we would go between a man c o two am in sunday school and president sign off on food first got in on time and come out with thousands of pounds that support me more which trouble because it's becoming increasingly more of a shock to me by to be in the city which she's a little bit more about this i'm joined by musician jake painter jake thanks so much for joining us today to what you make of this turnout i think this is probably the biggest protest we've seen taking place recently for his historic numbers of people here today is really quite unprecedented and you know i think that just shows the level of distrust such people have to discover why do you think the time is now i mean it's been quite a few protests we've seen recently why are this many people disappointed now i think it's been a very long standing in growing resentment especially i think you know the the young the millennium with every show you know where people are realizing the future if it is believed leslie get out and do something about it and so i think that's

what we're seeing here today with a lot of young people often a lot of protests and these people all you know so much younger crowd the normal sense is don't really have a job or say certainly that say you pay that coalition partners come fly on some issues but in parliament so i think the the idea of this is to bring us all together see say yes we'd like to achieve these and i said to leave now i would like another election we're confident that the progressive party could win a majority say in an election but also said to unite around some policy measures or we can push for an argument where the tension we could see the government now i think the south in a very very dangerous position election day by the by the baucus. as the jihad in loose when just weeks since the general election the british capital has been hit by a number of mass and to government protests was was

was you. was was. margaret bottleneck is developing on the italian french border where controls have been tightened with drones and guard dogs the following video captured at a makeshift camp by artie's video agency ruptly shows the heavy price that people are paying to traffickers just to continue their journey north. he. really. needs. in the u.s. . now it's really has become the main entry point for refugees crossing the mediterranean via libya on friday tensions spilled over in rome as crowds rallied against the construction of

a new asylum celta meanwhile in juneau where people took to the streets the doubts the far right party seeking to crack down on immigration. this week is only threaten to start turning away moderate rescue ships arriving at southern shores and warned the e.u. that the situation has become unsustainable.

on to charlotte dube and skewed travel to the italian island of sicily which is one of the main arrival points for african migrants this is one of the many. brings rescue migrants from the mediterranean sea to ports like this one here in sicily and for many of those migrants this will be the first time setting foot on u.s. soil but the italian authorities say there's so many migrants coming here to italy that they might have to close the ports to microchips like this. to me says it's the but the she. says the man detained and it's now happened to be cheeky here on the sicily and people on this island say they feel abandoned by the. locals who it is not just the responsibility of italy is the

responsibility of europe there is far too much immigration it's really cannot support arriving migrants. they do nothing because their policies don't work they just talk. but. they have to help you know we're bearing the financial burden you know i want other states france spain and others to do their part in helping the migrants because this prime minister didn't too long he said everyone turns away and pretends not to see to do nothing is wrong europe needs to help out while the european union has provided financial aid to it says it's not enough and now e.u. who make this have said that they back cools by italy to open up the ports along the mediterranean coast such as say in france and in barcelona in spain but that is likely to be met with great resistance in both countries and some people suggest that what the you repeat commission is saying is little more than heart attack.

some countries need to do more to do their share in distributing the refugees poland hungary and the czech republic have not accepted a single refugee from italy. unfortunately we have no progress on the question of distribution of migrants within the european union and we stand in solidarity with the italian government and the italian people and we will make available all possible assistance and support it seems there's a lot of poor but very little action from the powers that be in europe i know meanwhile italy is continuing to sink and the strain of the michael crisis. cicely. also spoke to sara a danger from doctors without borders who describe what it's like to rescue margaret's from the mediterranean this is the prudent spirit how many people have been able to rescue in these seas over the last

few months or years we've rescued almost seven thousand people since the begin. just with. what all of the conditions. have been the scariest. because you have people coming on. to be honest. as many people on this. people have drowned. because of the panic and also because. they panic because they're and.

it's very challenging physically and also emotionally. because you have to prepare yourself for anything. that could be pregnant with. people who are going to live or to. anything what kind of story. had to make a journey so many. but then you have. people of. people. who are business men and business women.

and people have been kidnapped. over and over and over we had people. been kidnapped over five times in libya they've given everything they had and they were just willing to get out no matter what they said when if we died in libya it's a call for european countries to take responsibility and to take ownership the e.u. is one union and the have signed agreements to help each other and it does seem like italy's left to handle this by themselves now and italy is crying for help. or ceremony was held at the european parliament on saturday for the late german leader helmut kohl who passed away two weeks ago. gave a speech paying tribute to the country's media they were claiming that happened against the wishes of cole's widow claims she would have preferred to hear from other world leaders that includes karl's friend prime minister viktor orban officials apparently prevented all been from speaking. on merkel had a complex relationship after germany's reunification he thought that her political

career but in the late one nine hundred ninety s. karl was caught up in a funding row markel replaced him as leader of the christian democrats. former german deputy defense secretary believe emma who attended. and. it is very important there's a family that. is all the public wanted to see good bye to him would call. fires off of fossil or. missing you or worse it will fire and better the situation and are seeing what happened today. was a balance situation. need german legislation branding both fake news and online terrorist propaganda risk criminal activity has been hit with a school of criticism at least in the country's parliament the green party's warn that social media firms may overregulate while the and establishment alternative

for germany party described it as a dark day for journalism the european digital rights group even issued an open letter before the legislation was passed claiming bill breaches e.u. laws now the new rules mean companies will have twenty four hours to remove the content facebook is already hiring more people to check flag posts with billions of users there are concerns that web giants in general maybe just overwhelmed by complaints now we contacted facebook for comment the company told us legislation is the wrong way to fight online hate speech with regulation threatening to remove content that is not actually illegal we discuss the issue with mateo but give me a political activist for shout out u.k. he believes the risks leading to censorship. everywhere you look on the internet there is how each beat hate speech defamation slander those kind of things but there is a problem when you start to try and tell private enterprise corporations to try and

do it and then there's also this issue that you've got to find what it is you know for someone hate speech may be actually true for all vice versa you know how do you define what actually is a reality and every single newspaper in usenet the sun has a slant of some kind or another part of the problem where you've got a government which is essentially trying to do that for the people who are saying well this is this we don't regard as new so we're going to get rid of that for you're going to get rid of then you need to watch this kind of news and i look at it only fru fru this kind of lens and that becomes quite dangerous ties essentially censorship you can call it regulation you can call it whatever you want but the reality is essentially a ship because you are censoring a certain point of view or a certain set of knew when i was asian just because you don't deem them as as fair or or factually correct the establishment is worried about the internet you know the internet is this one place where everybody everybody in the world can essentially have a voice they see that as as the centralized they see it as almost anarchic and for

that i think it scares them. a stage is all set for the final of the fee for confederations cup which is being hosted by russia. former player stan collymore of bringing new our special coverage of the tournament. down to the final germany against chile on paper they look pretty well balanced who do you think has the upper hand it's quite incredible i can remember tournament whether it be a champions league or world cup or confederation is called having such a huge experience gap all elaborate that for you. let's go on three goals for germany team over an hour on two goals for germany lost in long two goals for germinate. three of the holy scorers in this tournament have thirteen caps thirteen appearances for their country between them converse for hugo alexis sanchez who

plays for austin and england has got one hundred fourteen appearances for chile so it's a huge gap in experience and it's going to be fascinating to hear this plays out at the center to remain let's go to the stadium now i think petersburg stadium which is where the final will be played our correspondent a part of just outside obviously not too many in the way of fans of the moment maybe a few just curious having a look around but lots to be excited about a few people around a few lights coming on a few more people turning up as well if you go into the hotels everybody there let people speak english because the nature of this final i think if you're a host nation of course everybody wanted russia to be in it and to do really well but of course looking at then some of the other teams coming through this is set up as you said to be a cracking final with two of the world's best teams and also just before hand when we were looking at all the numbers of fans who bought tickets aside from russians watching the tournament chile and germany were among the fans who bought the most tickets so a lot of them there there are they've been anticipating good final checks which for

a momentum going in there long two trips over a month haven't seen so much as anybody other than but their beautiful eyelids up maybe man woman and child racism hooliganism where receipt. well there isn't any apparently and i've every read across reports across the whole of the media across the world as well and nobody has reported anything i think is to the delight of fee for particular russia as well but johnny avanti now was full of praise because it wasn't just a question of as you mentioned hooliganism racism some of these other issues that have been long debated about particular issues in eastern europe but also the fact that the infrastructure wouldn't be finished but the feet the president himself is full of praise on a social level and an infrastructure level about the tournament so far we're hearing about violence about incidents holy go. it's about. racism when we had nothing we had no incidents everything run smoothly everything run perfectly we're hearing about the infrastructure as well the are not

ready and how will it work and all this well infrastructures are absolutely beautiful beautiful football stadiums transport works visa free entry with a fan id free transportation between the venues by train this is something that does not happen in many other countries were big events or organized well that city for many years particularly say i've been here since the time that the world cup bid was announced and where the host city would be and then about the confederations cup we've been hearing about the negatives about the potential for races and the potential for hooliganism the infrastructure would be ready but it's all coming together and for once we can now concentrate on the positives it's all about a cracking game of football between two of the world's best teams here at the magnificent stadiums to petersburg on sunday night thank you after saying your very briefly the stadiums are ready the trouble is ready and i think it's took a lot of stick to say from all the four cities been absolutely fantastic i would

say that you know it's not like people are looking for problems and about you not hearing anything but mostly on t.v. absolutely no wall hearing. joined by some young football fans they were showing off their fancy footwork and some of these kids could have a future great bunch of kids as well and. to see them making fun of the ball point three zero look because it is evolution it never had a silly germany here so you are going to experience the central square in st petersburg here that's going to play not make the best football playing service but it's certainly a very beautiful. model. but i. just see my family my family my mother is my. thank you still. this. is zero zero. zero zero. joined by peter

stone to use the chief correspondent for gold dot com peter great to have you in the studio now first of all just explain to us what are you doing here in russia well obviously it's the big tournament next year the world cup and a lot of our team we haven't been to russia before for work to visit so they've sent me on almost an exploratory mission here it's going to be a proper world cup next year i know a lot of people in the u.k. and ireland in the united states might have certain fears or preconceptions about what it's going to be like on the ground here next year but you know this sort of you know should really anybody's fears about coming here i found great stadiums are first rate stadiums great infrastructure great help from the volunteers free transport between the cities and around the cities for all the science and i just find that the people you know the country would know for you when you're here you know i had one woman on the train platform and saw that you actually followed her daughter who spoke english to make sure that i was getting on the right train and it's that sort of helpfulness that really quite by surprise here i found people

that are warm they're courtiers and like i said the country will for you you know all the security fronts fans will be kept apart but even even at that i think sure friends are going to make it quite well if we've got a bit of weather for the world cup next year that's all we want i think that's the main thing absolutely. will be back throughout sunday with the build up to the final jordison altie international for. the u.s. ambassador to the united nations nikki haley has compared iran to a school play and some remarks about the country's nuclear disarmament the topic of iranian regimes compliance with its international obligations reminds me of the fable of the scorpion and the frog. the scorpion asked the frog for a ride across the river the frog quite rationally asked how do i know you won't sting me and the scorpion replies because it would kill both of us we'd both drown

so the frog is convinced he lets the scorpion get on its back and starts across the river but sure enough midway through discordian stings him with his last breath the frog asked why and the scorpion replies because it's in my nature. the secretary general's report is filled with devastating evidence of the nature of the iranian regime when we're talking about international agreements and enforcement and when we're talking about the potential of prosecuting through military means or the like these little metaphorical parable references to lose their quaintness this is serious business here so when it comes to international diplomacy but it comes with

the possibility of sanctions when it comes to the possibility theoretically of war i would prefer lay off the metaphor in the parable and this simile and let's be very very clear and also never overreact always look for a peaceful peaceful interpretation and a peaceful outcome. of this is not the first time top american officials have used this type of rhetoric when describing the nations the former director of u.s. national intelligence james clapper has been fined outspoken about russians on this supposed genetics. the historical practices of the russians who typically almost genetically driven to co-opt. penetrate. to gain favor whatever is there any reason to believe that russia is not continuing to attempt to or to infiltrate us political organizations individuals all i'm quite sure they are a little i think it's in their d.n.a. . that's critical of u.s.

policies the talk is that with such rhetoric not only abroad but inside the u.s. as well one of america's most prominent philosophers know of chomsky explain a lot see america how the anti americanism label is used by politicians suddenly critics of american empire or american capitalism got tarred with this at the american ism you know and american is a very interesting concept it's a concept that only exists and to turn states in the soviet union old soviet union you could be condemned for being the soviet the brazilian military dictatorship you could be brazilian but aside from the united states i don't know of any other. authoritarian country with the concept even exist it's a very striking country concept if you're critical of policy you're anti american

actually this is an interesting biblical origin. who is the ultimate ultimate evil in the bible he called the prophet. elijah to him and asked him why he is hater of israel meaning condemning the acts of the evil that basic concept authority if you challenge authority you're opposed to the society the culture the community and so. you kind of watch the full interview with me on chomsky on auty dot com. next up on the program i report a vision india perched on top of a burning coal field we were going next hour.

i've negotiated with the palestinians under oficial and non-official it's for hundreds and thousands of years what i have seen is that the palestinians negotiating an all or nothing. kind all to you

every time that we reach a juncture in which there was a possibility to resolve a conflict the palestinians just walked away. that going to take a dive a decade in the yard and i gotta lie you know a lot of out of that is defined as that behavior and. the.
