welcome come to you live from moscow you're watching r.t. international now our top story this hour amid growing tensions between north korea and the u.s. president trump has emphasized the strength of america's nuclear arsenal he said that his actions had renovated and modernize u.s. weapons adding that america will never be overtaken as the world superpower earlier president gave a strong warning to north korea's leader and then threatened to strike the u.s. pacific territory of kuat. what. make it even worse wrench to the united states. they will be met with fire fury. like the world has never seen before trying to make the rather explosive statement while the washington post actually published an article claiming that their reporters have read this latest u.s. defense report which says that north korea has managed to build these small nuclear

warheads a small enough to fit inside missiles so rather alarming information but this washington post article well they did not present any sort of evidence to prove how they managed to get their hands on this on this document and despite that the story's been picked up by the american mainstream media has been widely reported and here's a sample of what those reports are like now confirming a u.s. intelligence assessment on north korea that was first reported by the washington post earlier today in the assessment is that north korea now has a weapon a nuclear weapon that is small enough to fit on a missile u.s. intelligence analysts believe the north could now produce a miniaturized nuclear warhead that can fit inside its missile and north korea become a full fledged nuclear power it may have crossed a key threshold something the world has been fearing for years the north has successfully developed many nuclear warheads on top of this washington post article things to a boiling point on cheers day when the u.s. flew to b. one b.

bombers over guam with its allies in japan and south korea and after that drill while the president made that statement saying that he's respond to threats from north korea with fire and theory and that prompted pyongyang to release a statement saying that they are considering striking the u.s. base in guam now bear in mind that is true i mean throughout the years and also this year alone north korea has conducted numerous missile tests which angered the international community but at the same time the u.s. is also increasing its military presence significantly in the region we're talking about sending an air carrier is conducting regular military drills setting and troops and also fighter jets to the region and in terms of rhetoric while president obama has long been quite aggressive towards north korea and some would even go as far as saying that he's being provocative here's a sample of the u.s. officials have commented on north korea in the past the year of strategic patience . with the north korean regime has failed many years that it's failed united states is prepared to use the full range of our capabilities to

defend ourselves and our allies one of our capabilities lies with our considerable military forces this is a little appear should a nation if you compare it to our capabilities they don't come near to being even close to a competitor or the chance that we could end up. having a major major conflict with north korea. absolute tensions are higher than ever as gone way beyond just a war of words china and russia have been calling on all sides to remain calm and to seek a political solution to all of this and meanwhile australia and new zealand who are countries that are countries in the asia pacific region also u.s. allies and they could suffer greatly if a conflict is to break out on the korean peninsula they have also come out to weigh in on what they thought about translate a statement because i think the comments that not helpful in an environment is during chains everyone wants to avoid military confrontation the global community

led by the security council including trauner and russia. all united in seeking to bring the maximum economic pressure on north korea to bring them to their senses without conflict have to wait and see whether trump will take their advice but certainly the escalating tensions on the korean peninsula has got a lot of people worried. or trump's words have also been widely condemned by u.s. lawmakers congressman eliot engel here has called the latest remarks reckless he says that trump is undermining america's security and is putting its allies in danger we've got reaction from a number of analysts and they too believe the u.s. president is taking huge risks by ratcheting up the tension definitely think that the north korean leadership including supreme leader kim jong un has look to the examples of libya and iraq to see what happens to leaders when they gave up their nuclear weapons and particularly since july since last month when north korea

tested two intercontinental ballistic missiles their leadership has taken a stronger stance against negotiations they've made it very clear that north korea's nuclear program is not on the negotiating table unless the u.s. changes its stance against north korea i think president trumps rather is calling for war and calling for destruction calling for unprecedented fire and fear is the wrong message to say by the u.s. president of his time and this is definitely the wrong thing to do you cannot have the president of the united states warmongering against d p r k where as the us secretary of state is calling d p r k not an enemy of the united states. french authorities have arrested a man suspected of planning a car into a group of soldiers in the north of paris this morning six were injured two seriously as a result of the incident the suspect who is driving a black b.m.w.

was detained on a motorway after being chased by police charlotte dubinsky has more details. a suspect who was driving the car involved in the attack has been arrested on the highway between paris and. it's been confirmed that the man arrested on a northern highway in france between bologna and cali is the suspect that police have been. searching for he was arrested by elite forces and we understand that he was shot five times during that arrest and a police officer was also injured as they tried to apprehend a man he was the person who they believe was behind the attacks which took place just a few hundred meters behind me at the opening of a soldier's barracks at around quarter past eight local time in paris this morning the local mayor has described this as a deliberate act and said this is what he saw take place. he said there were a dozen officers at the entrance at seven fifty seven in the morning when

a car which was parked at the end of the road rammed into the mid speed while they were approaching their vehicle they did not choose the location by charms there are many police officers and the cameras are everywhere on the video we can see the attacker and how the attack took place the place is symbolic just as the eiffel tower or paris airport or not they came to this town where anti-terrorist forces are doing their remarkable job the local mayor also talked about the place of this attack as being symbolic and that's because the main intelligence agency and it's also a staging point for soldiers who are based to this is what residents have been telling us. i heard a loud bang and ten minutes of shouting i went outside with my wife we saw two bodies on the ground there was a lot of noise we saw deployment of cars firemen ambulances security and then we saw the injury being taken away one person was on the stretcher and legs the most

severely injured two others with less serious looking wounds were in a wheelchair as paris prosecution office has opened an investigation into this case and they are pursuing charges of attempted murder of security forces in connection with a terrorist and to price now one of the reasons why it's been suggested that this place may have been strategically chosen is because it's where the main intelligence agency and it's also a staging point for soldiers who were assigned to protect from that site in paris. now paris is no stranger to attacks it's been under a state of emergency for the whole of france has been under

a state of emergency since november two thousand and fifteen when there were those coordinated attacks here in the city and since then bonsa seen a number of large scale terror attacks a person of my color has said that one of his aims in his first year the presidency is to remove that state of emergency by november of this year whether that's plausible or not remains to be seen. whether charlotte said beth french acuity forces have been the target of a number of terror attacks this year. it was due to the little. chris

hunter a former u.k. army intelligence officer says the terrorists the targeting flaws in security one of the other features about this in this particular attack is that it took place during a shift change over. around eight o'clock paris time and you know that's one of the other things that terrorists look look for when they're carrying out hostile reconnaissance they're looking for patterns they're looking for vulnerabilities they're looking for you know cameras security forces the the weapons equipment carried by the security forces by their own vulnerabilities if you like but certainly something like a shift change over where people aren't potentially as alert as they might be or where briefings are taking place you know that something is being carried out by criminals and terrorists across the world in the past there are certain things that can be done certainly looking it's not setting patterns by the security forces that's one looking at putting in protective security measures counter the valence

you know during those sort of vulnerable periods or vulnerable locations that's another and certainly education and training of the general public i think is something this wonderfully inadequate across europe. now wiki leaks is offering a job to a google engineer who was sacked over an internal corporate memo the web giants move has sparked a debate over free speech in corporations we can extend it or genius aren't you q.'s people essentially shipping tweeted that it's not fat fire employees to freely expressing their thoughts and to near change them or was fired after sending a memo criticizing those diversity policies his bosses say that breached their code of conduct. has more. in corporate boardrooms across america the buzz word is meritocracy ideology isn't supposed to matter employees are supposed to be hired judged and promoted based on their skills and ability however the high tech firm

known as google seems to be straying from this free market ideal and now employees can be fired if they step away from the liberal social justice party line they recently fired an employee and sent out this memo portions of the memo violate our code of conduct and crossed the line by advancing harmful gender stereotypes in our workplace so what is it that he said what stereotypes was he promoting well here are the fatal words i'm simply stating that the distribution of preferences in the pollutes he's men and women differ in poets you to biological causes and that these differences may explain why we don't see equal representation of women in tech and leadership now those are fighting words as far as some people are concerned and the guy is not going to win any popularity contests to be fair by having a top employee make comments like this google opens itself up to the danger of lawsuits and allegations of discrimination in hiring but is there an ideological criteria for working at google let's take

a look at where some of this thought crime logic leads. google won't fix john with unconscious bias training when they keep employing people who are proud of their conscious bias honestly if no one is fired to read this google should just admit the commitment to women is window dressing the article is publicly supported by many people internally begs the question how many privately supports agree or subscribe there are many people google who share this guy's views they do pit performance reviews and interview people they discriminate yes the usa heralds itself as the land of the free and the home of the brave but on certain college campuses in silicon valley and in other parts of the country there's an atmosphere brewing where if you have the wrong political opinions or cultural views there can be very harsh consequences. are to new york what i see opposite ends of the spectrum legal on this line and. gave us their thoughts on the story what kind of

being idiot would decide at google to basically slam diversity to refer to women in particular you know most of descriptions which might under some. interpretation of human behavior might be considered valid but to others patently offensive what is google supposed to do this fellow who wrote the memo he will never work in a normal corporation or a big corporation ever again in america a what he's sad was basically one interpretation that women were inferior. based upon a variety of reasons and rationale which to him i'm sure makes sense and by the way he may be now the darling of the right the all right the libertarian right whatever you want to call them the memo in fact most people reporting on it never read it the people criticizing it i read it it was quite sound quite sane it was temperate he even said that nothing in this memo means that we should respect everybody we

should respect everybody and then goo. one around and fired him and showed him that the left does not respect anybody who has an appendage thought the problem is not that we don't understand what he meant the problem is that this is a sensitive to people what google then has to do is address the other workers as they were never imo founded by this do you endorse this when you don't have actual evidence that you're being the victim of sexism but you want to believe a victim and become a victim then you find evidence whether it's not. the international. a russian lawyer is still in the spotlight over her meeting with junior she gives us her thoughts that when the scandal after the spring. in case you're new to the game this is how. the economy is built around.

washington washington. the. voters elected a businessman to run this country business if. you must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. seemed wrong. to me. to shape out the attic. and it. equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

hello again the russian lawyer at the center of a collusion scandal with steve has given more details about the pressure she faces from the president's opponents and the u.s. media last month the tally of estimates guy was dragged into the right over claims that russia interfered in the u.s. election over a meeting with the president. we all know her name now and tell us a tally of natalia vessel needs sky italia the soundness guy of the new tallia vessel at sky i. have to wake up one morning and find you are the focus all from all the firing pin up stream media.

i don't know what it turns out it was nothing well in an exclusive interview airing today here on r.t. nataly of us and it's guy has been speaking in-depth about how she's been treated by the mainstream media. my story has nothing to do with politics i did not really care who would be in power the republicans or democrats i do not care about how the situation is unfolding today mine was a human story it had nothing to do with politics i was really amazed at how the us media machine operates on july eighth the new york times sent me a request for comment they asked me to reply to a list of questions i was surprised by many questions relating to the trump jr meeting i was not even able to recall the exact date because it seemed like a poncing meeting it did not lead anywhere there was no outcome i sent a detailed reply to the new york times and surprisingly in their post on july eighth they only publish small extracts from my statement only what they needed now

that same piece looks completely different on their website it has been thoroughly revised there is a huge difference from the original article that was published on july eighth to me it looks like an orchestrated story the whole scandal over my meeting with donald trump jr has been carefully orchestrated and blown out of proportion we have come so close to the truth of how russian budget funds were stolen and that affair i just happened to be on the front line so to speak and i challenge mr brown to publicly he invented all of this he and nobody else he and his team set it all up it is extremely difficult to find a small to medium manipulator than bill browder. well that man american financier bill browder emerged as a central player in the scandal between the tally of this and its guy and donald trump jr and even testified before a u.s. senate committee the state department e-mails reveal that broder had long been

gathering information and personal details about this and its scar she believes he then ramped up his public vendetta after losing a lengthy court battle three months ago against the russian own real estate firm in cyprus which she was representing he accused it of money laundering but the case was settled and the firm was cleared but i think that browder himself is a pawn in someone's hands because this story has proven to be gold for so many it was gold five years ago when it made the very first russia sanctions act happen and it's called now especially now it's gold for the present day tabloids for politics and for mass media with its anti truck frenzy. our race has broken out over a b.b.c. t.v. cartoon about roman britain which has split views and pitted academics against one another because the program does depict a black high ranking roman soldier. just what a man needs after working hard for the roman empire pays tear his development

empire good question well we're part of it here you cannot rewrite history based on today's values you got to write this through the way it works history should be more like other. pursuits. outside look at our side the moral domain or outside whatever value system which was described in the way that statistically these are historical realities the problem we have is there are certain political interests which are looking to divide communities which are looking to push back the idea and the ideals of multiculturalism that we have different contributing populations different contributing demographics within broader society. well two scholars in particular have been trading barbs cambridge historian mary beard insists the cartoons portrayal is accurate citing firm evidence but started statistician miss and athene ikhlas taleb to use the word is not conveyed just.

professor beard who is a renowned cambridge scholar said the cartoons character was least sleep based and governor of roman britain who is believed to have been of african descent the scene taleb says understanding is flawed. even if you have a character from far away it is not represent that and usually brainwash children. plus the other thing is she doesn't seem to understand that people around the mediterranean at the time look very similar things should be bottom up good fences make good neighbors we should be globalist but let's not be universalists to the point of ignoring people's national identity or things that they value but the cli if the way you do it goes against that the circle theory. of unused land the us the started to build a major military facility on ukraine's black sea coast the us navy says the new

maritime operations center will serve as a planning hub for joint military exercises last month american personnel took part in large scale nato trails in ukraine sixteen countries were involved with air land and sea forces meanwhile the u.s. is reportedly seeking to construct eight military training centers in another former soviet republic moldova and that's a concern for the country's president who says he has not approved any such plans and is pledging to look into it political commentator john bosnich told us the u.s. military buildup in eastern europe does pose a direct challenge to russia. it's a destabilizing process the the expansion in the build up of military forces along the russian border is intended to destabilize the development of russia and therefore maintain dominance of the western system that's the first secondary it's actually

a money grab the more the people in the west fear a potential conflict the more the governments in the west can feed taxpayers' money into the military industrial complex thereby producing profits exorbitant crazy profits and keeping their economies running because they have not converted over to a peacetime economy. now iraq legend roger waters is calling on his fellow performers to back him in a vocal spat with the band radiohead the co-founder of the group pink floyd wants other artists to back a movement of palestinian rights and to boycott performing in israel radiohead from man thom yorke refused to call off his television concert though leading to some heated debate in an exclusive interview to r.t. waters explains why he is promoting the movement and the reasons why the mainstream media has ignored it is a pretty. civil society in palestine in two thousand and five started the

b.d.s. movement themselves this isn't something imposed by a bunch of foreign row musicians this is something that they started that day who denies it and they have made an appeal to all artists rights as musicians actors directors anybody in the rest of the world to observe the picket line which they have shown and to know to to to to observe a cultural boycott of the country thom yorke is wrong about no it dorsenne the purposes of the israeli government by playing. and willie nearly when may cross the picket line they are making a public statement that they do indorse the policies of the cup what ever they say because that is what will be reported to israel and that is what gets reported around the world that is why radiohead of being so soundly criticized by anybody

with progressive ideas about human rights i would say are fairly accessible why don't we hear from you on mainstream media or on popular late night television. i'm told. that they come to the question but that it comes from above i was told by charlie rose not directly but by his producer why isn't roger on charlie rose and we're not quite sure but it comes from above that scene so you can figure out for yourself it's not rocket science your international thanks being with us this evening we'll have more news in half an. it's. a little more still with you on the idea that dropping bombs brings peace to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles that still. produce offspring to tell you the gossip the template fell. off the eyes and tell

me you will and that's. all the hawks that i'm on the ball will want. to know what it. is. so. i mean. if it up as i must. get.

my family. yes it will be. the. truth. see you should be a bit cheaper keep enough. to get out of this new thing.
