thank you. donald trump threatens north korea with fury and stresses the strength of america's nuclear arsenal and yang warns that may strike the u.s. pacific territory of guam also the french authorities arrest the main suspect in the attack on

a group of soldiers and the terror police are investigating google's decision. criticizing the start of this the policy sparks the free speech rag but he does get a job offer from wiki to. her. good evening welcome it's just turned seven o'clock here in moscow you're watching international. growing tensions between north korea. emphasize the strength of america's nuclear arsenal he said that his actions had renovated to modernize u.s. weapons adding that america will never be overtaken as the world's superpower president gave a strong warning to north korea pyongyang them threaten to strike the u.s. pacific territory. what. they give

the united states. they will be met with fire fury. like the world has never seen before trying to make that 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 this 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 warhead on top of this washington post article things to a boiling point on choose 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 been provoked 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 appears sure the nation if you compare it to our capabilities they don't come near to being even close to. all the chance that we could end up. being a major major conflict with north korea. absolutely 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 translated statements because i think the comments are not helpful and informants 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 and many so you there will trumps words have also been condemned by u.s. lawmakers congressman eliot engel has called the latest remarks reckless he says that trump is undermining america's security and putting its allies in danger we've got reaction from a number of analysts and they too believe that the u.s.

president is taking huge risks by ratcheting up the tensions. i 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 rhetoric 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. in other news tonight french authorities have arrested a man suspected of plotting a car into a group of soldiers in the north of paris this morning six were injured two seriously the suspect who was driving a black b.m.w. was detained on a motorway after being chased by police charlie 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 the 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. asked 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 offices 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 antiterrorist forces are doing their remarkable job the local melts it will be 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 a base to this is what residents have been telling us is. 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 like 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 so it's here in paris.

now paris is no stranger to attacks it's been under a state of emergency but 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 francis seen a number of large scale terror attacks now present maclin has said that one of his aims in his speech to the presidency is to lose that stating nugent see by november to see whether that's plausible or not remains to be seen. as charlotte said that french acuity forces have been the target of a number of terror attacks this year.

it was. chris hunter a former u.k. army intelligence officer says the terrorists are 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 and equipment carried by the security forces 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 violence 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 something this wonderfully about occur across europe. wiki leaks is offering a job to a google engineer who was signed into new memo web giants move to debate to free speech in corporations wiki leaks said it's a genius own she accused of censorship and tweeted that it's not fair to fire employees for three expressing their thoughts and change them or always fied to sending a memo criticizing diversity policies his bosses say that breached their code of

conduct kind of pulpit as male 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 and abilities of men and women to in part due to biological causes and 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 over 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. r.t. new york while at opposite ends of the spectrum legal analysts lionel and journalist mark certain of each gave us their thoughts on the story. what kind of idiot would decide. 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 staggered was basically one interpretation that women were inferior. based upon

a variety of reasons and rationale which i'm sure makes sense and by the way he may be now the darling of the right 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 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 google went around and fired him and showed him that the left does not respect anybody who has independent thought the problem is not that we don't understand what the problem is that this is a sensitive to people what google then has to do is address the other workers who say wait a minute i must fended 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. russian oil still in the.

union she gives us her thoughts on the scandal after the break. first. of all make this manufactured. public well. when the really close is protect them so. when the final. say. welcome. back.

the russian oil the center of a collusion scandal with the team is given more details about the pressure she faces from the president's opponents the us media last month in the sky was dragged into the ride over claims that russia into feed in the us election over a meeting with the president. we all know her name now and tell us about sky italia vessel in that sky natalia vessel needs sky and italia the sound the sky at the natalia vessel at sky i. have to wake up one morning and find you know the focus

all from all the high ranking up stream media. i don't know what to think in terms of it was nothing well and exclusive interview airing today here not in a tally of us and it's guys been speaking in depth about how she has 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 passing meeting it did not lead anywhere there was no outcome so 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 in 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 smarter media manipulator than bill browder or that man american financier bill

browder emerged as a central player in the scandal between the talia the senate's guy and more from junior and even testified before us senate committee big state department e-mails revealed that had long been gathering information and personal details about this and its she believes he then ramped up his public vendetta after losing a lengthy court battle three months ago against the russian named real estate firm in cyprus which she has read. presenting he accused of money laundering but the case was settled and the firm was cleared for benefiting from corruption but i think that browder himself is a pawn in someone's hands because this story has proven to be gold for so many that it was gold five years ago when it made the very first russia sanctions act happen and it's gold now especially now is gold for the present day tabloids for politics and the mass media with its anti trump frenzy. now a b.b.c.

children's cartoon about roman britain has caused controversy and divided top academics that's because it shows a high ranking black roman soldier just what our man needs after working hard for the roman empire pay 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 of what history should be more like other electoral pursuits. outside look at us on the moral domain or outside whatever value system which was described in the way they were 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 over this cambridge historian mary beard insists the cartoons portrayal is accurate citing firm evidence she says the character is loosely based on the governor of roman britain who is believed to have been of african descent but in a scene nicholas taleb you saw earlier is not convinced. even if you have a crowd source from far away it is not representative and you shouldn't brainwash children. was 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 is the goal series. finally this hour rock 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 back in movement for palestinian rights and to boycott performing in israel radiohead front man thom yorke refused to call off his television concert leading to some heated debates while in an exclusive interview with r.t. or sisters explain 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 tom is wrong about no dorsenne the purposes of the israeli copeland by playing. and willy nilly we may cross the picket line they are making a public statement they do indorse the policies of the cup what ever they say because that is what will be reported in 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 excessive all 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 we're not quite sure but it comes from above that change so you can figure out

for yourself it's not rocket science when you can watch the full interview with raunchy there stay on r.t. america at five pm eastern time or you can watch it did any time in fact and i website and i don't call that's how the news looks i thought and i will be back with more in about how. i was i was . was was.

you know my point i wanted to. ask but. you're so you know i lost his boss because i just got the. resources you know. so i said you know what i was you know. you know just i mean most people have spent the better of me just. give it up as i might you know i mean i just will get us out. of this but i was just. my bad. if i see you could have got a bomb i just bought that already yes it will be in the thought of getting that call i think with you yes implementing that allowed by remain

a squat about. gratings and sell you taishan. on a long enough timeline everything's life expectancy drops to zero including russian election meddling conspiracy theories and time has not been kind of the purveyors of this new cold war fear mongering you see for those of us paying attention and reading between the corporate news headlines this summer is seen too many significant revelent tory blocks pulled from there now teetering russians are coming coming game of jenga to still believe that it was russian hacking and wikis

leaking that cost hillary clinton her coronation last november one significant block was the incredible discovery by the veteran intelligence professionals for sanity that goose of her two point zero was not at all what he she it appeared to be and that those particular hacks weren't hacks but files downloaded to a flash drive in the eastern time zone. and now yet another block has just been shimmied out after crunching the election numbers a new study now attributes donald trump's win last year not to russian hackers or a horde of single white males steve bannon clones but to those hardest hit by america's militaristic neo liberal foreign policy of endless war the communities with the highest rates of military casualties the report titled battlefield casualties and ballot box defeat did the bush obama was.
