will be attacked and condemned the violence this egregious display of hatred bigotry and violence on many shots on many politicians on both sides of the political spectrum slammed the president for not taking a strong enough stance and what's very unfortunate is people in virginia are still fearful that this could happen again given that those organizers of the white supremacist rally have vowed to not give up the hatred and tension was palpable here on saturday and much of it has continued throughout the week and when one of the organizers of the right protest tried to speak he was not only in food into submission he was also physically attacked the very. day out of the tragic events that occurred here on saturday is unfortunately just the most recent in a series of violent attacks happening throughout america. many of you will remember a republican senator was shot at a congressional baseball practice not long ago when the talks on the left we saw

4:06 am
the national socialist movement are on the far fringes of american politics and that's also true about the anarchists left as well but they also penetrate deeper into the mainstream than most american political pundits would like to admit i mean certainly there are elements of white nationalism in the mentality that leads to for example police shootings by white policeman against young black man and there's elements of the far left within the progressive left and even in terms of that level of militancy so on the one hand this is played this is definitely a far right versus far left story but it's almost like a team sport of politics where people who are perhaps not deeply invested in their own version of the left or the right are nevertheless sort of silently cheering for one or the other. it's about you and i do we stand divided we fall but i believe.
4:07 am
that if i try to i respect. that if. the democrats think. i. have. one of the reasons i won the election is very very divided nation. it's good to have you with us today for the program is continuing his campaign to find relatives of russian speaking children astride at an iraqi orphanage a bring them home mr cole we're trying to spread around the world among those i defied so far as a five year old had and a three year old fatima these youngsters had reportedly been taken to iraq by their parents who joined islamic state of the girls their relatives in iraq. recognized

it. on and there's a. new person if you. stood. there with something precious unforgettable it is one of the real opportunities to witness love in its purest form we wanted big grandparents to know that despite her young age and the terror of most though she remembered them more i guys do you see from dagestan russia meanwhile we were contacted by an australian bureau of mark johnson and here's our offer to adopt a child whose relatives still can't be found. my heart broke watching the story when we can humble but on this living will gladly provide for those children should the remain displaced it's nice country here in australia and the children would be loved as a run that was not raging i sort of got to read it i really cried and i really do

every comic still think about. it was would very destroy the poor children's were. in despair. you could still say it's of them being children but. it shouldn't be that it should be happy to have been surrounded by friends and family the same while the parents abuse the wife like the engine just left in the big big pot of an opal situation and these children shouldn't be. well when i when i got the boys i think he saw very little people here. cause they're all. and he did the wife that little boy to experience. and this is. what i mean couple of years old that was one of the most harrowing bits that i remember off and his description of saying the same the person. at the end of. this little boy would describe such an event

4:13 am
be happy with the media is certainly helping to stir things up so how worried should people be nothing about it there is nothing imminent today but make no mistake about it the continuation the increased chance that they'll be a nuclear missile in denver is a very serious threat there ministrations going to treat it as such so where does that leave us all only a few days ago into trouble verbal spat with kim jong un a survey showed almost eighty percent of americans believe north korea's capable of launching a missile that could hit the u.s. and that's despite many experts saying junks weapons are not sophisticated enough to achieve that don't you holkins has been taking a look at who actually benefits from all this scam mongering. the higher the tension the hotter the rhetoric we've certainly had no shortage of
4:14 am
that in recent days but who stands to gain from this war of words trump for one the u.s. president has kept busy sounding military drums against north korea. they will be met with a view. that if there is a state. maybe it wasn't so. and its tough talk like this that brought him unity found popularity according to one poll trump's approval ratings jumped to forty five percent on the back of those comments . next on the list the north korean army twenty young claims a whopping three and half million volunteers have signed up for the country's military all because of the recent escalation if true definitely a win for kim and his army recruits is.
4:15 am
now moving on to guam the u.s. territory located closest to north korea people there have already received god loans and what to do when they see a mushroom clouds but there's an unexpected cause for celebration because apparently all the hype will actually do the good. there. you. go up there. and where there is war all even the talk of one is always big money and this time it's ten points for the bunk a business sales are partly going through the roof on the wave of apocalypse his theory now with the. military tensions running high bomb shelters are alas making
4:16 am
a comeback client scott helps people who are really bridge and really freaked out his clientele has changed from people afraid obama would take their property to those of great trouble start a nuclear war all this drama with north korea is paying off in a big way for this company take a look at what they are selling here these are massive bomb shelters one such companies even advising people to form an entire survival community if they get into all cuz you scared feel you could move to one of these bunkers scattered around a whopping twenty square kilometers in south dakota yet another says they're completely sold out are even true did so but we have the capacity to me at least a year why maybe around the world. so plenty of point scoring on the back of needs planning but while the big boss is reaping the rewards the law is communities of people are left losing sleep over the fear of the yet another conflict. rights activist and university of.
4:17 am
quote reckless rhetoric in this crisis. is used by the united states it defends the united states but it's not really the united states. and the north koreans were to say that we're going to target off the coast of california or we're going to target off the coast of washington state or even target off the coast of hawaii there would be a very different response from the united states because you are directly threatening the homeland but what is the purpose of a territory or a colony the purpose of a colony is that you exploit it when things are good and if things get ugly you cut it loose the fact that speaks so recklessly and so is repulsively only helps to underscore a lot of the those anxious tensions. international still to come for example the e.u. migration commissioner calling for tougher deportation policy as more member states
4:18 am
voiced serious discontent over the blocks handling of the ongoing migrant crisis story coming up. we're going to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and you. want. to go on to be for us this is what before three in the morning people. interested always in the waters . in case you're new to the game this is how. the economy is built around. washington.
4:19 am
to run this country business. it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. the monday news here when our teams are national the e.u. migration commission has called for member states to get tough on illegal immigrants and ensure they get deported. picks up the story. there's certainly a change in rhetoric from the e.u. migration commissioner or dimitri opera marple as who one here ago said the e.u. should work harder to accept more asylum seekers let me remind you that you're already has the highest asylum standards in the world and we have to uphold those
4:20 am
and our commitment to protect those seeking protection. we need a stricter and more effective policy for deportation too few migrants are being deported the european states have to do more his change of term really boils down to the e.u.'s relocation policy for the refugees and migrants is apparently falling apart i mean in the beginning it was mostly the eastern european states like hungary and poland in the baltic states being against that used walk will see for the migrants and refusing to taken in more and more refugees but now we're hearing more voices of this content from other countries as well particularly italy which really has been bearing the brunt of the migrants are the refugees arriving from africa as well as the middle east in search of a better life in europe since the beginning of this year we're talking about new the one hundred thousand migrants who have arrived in italy and we can really see that things are reaching a boiling point and situation is particularly worsening in the small italian town of ventimiglia were locals protesting against building
4:21 am
a new refugee shelter for under age migrants. well ok we're going to did you we're skewed on the police and then approached a friend of mine and got into his car he was trying to come back we couldn't handle the situation any more i don't blame this people i blame the government i don't know what they're doing i'm just here to see that we can't take it any more we don't want them here. we give them a place to sleep and we give them eighty euros a day but first we should be taken care of our own children our own people our elderly. the mayor of this town says ventimiglia simply has been left alone to deal with the crisis by themselves and he's one of the many who has been accusing the e.u. of not providing its countries with enough support to take in more migrants modern
4:22 am
europe. the european union we've never seen do anything here i don't think the e.u. has given us any real support the big expense for us comes from underage migrants the town according to law has to take care of generally we will be reimbursed around half of the expenses there are tens of thousands of euros that our town is paying at the moment because of this earlier this year it's even threatened to close down its ports to boats carrying migrants so we'll just have to wait and see how officials will react to the situation and it's early and also how they plan to tackle the ongoing migrant crisis in the. meanwhile abandoned vessels used to get migrants across the mediterranean are regularly being found on the italian coast after five days once here at the boats come in under the cover of darkness it's thought to be in a bid to avoid detection by a forward professor of modern european history apollo but i've been a says officials are simply passing the buck as the emergency situation gets worse
4:23 am
. while he is least in my the same time is blaming the center of the state with the fact that state the perfect the should act and the fact is now is the law maybe it was the local dog. and they are liking the situation we. they accuse each other. and the same time the population. may to resign and there you is absolutely not in this question is really tragic i will say if. we are going to face a very valuable. locals in afghanistan's province claim a u.s. airstrike hit a civilian vehicle and there were no terrorists anywhere in the vicinity some of the residents stories.
4:24 am
yesterday they dropped a bomb on his u.k. vehicle killing civilians not a single terrorist is being targeted the foreigners just strike civilians. this strike was conducted in the middle of open tearing there was zero chance of civilian casualties. one person lost five children but now they bluntly deny that they bombed the civilians they didn't kill a single taliban no ossified they killed only in this in civilians women and children. there was a bit of conflicts up the cruel attacks against our people any more we urge the government of afghanistan to prevent such brutal acts we were up to mystic that
4:25 am
they would clear our areas of militants but these military operations are just to show they just for a few missiles target civilians and then return without any result. the u.s. war in afghanistan also appears to be fueling america's opioid crisis. and reports if you closely follow world events you'll notice two things that are happening almost simultaneously first you have the opioid crisis in the united states over you it gracious is a very rapid escalation of the air when it opioid prices altered forty two americans are dying every day of drug overdose and then you have the surge in afghan drug production opium production in afghanistan rose by forty three percent to four thousand eight hundred metric tons in twenty six scene compared with twenty fifteen levels afghanistan hasn't always been the booming center of drug production that is today since the united states invaded in two thousand and one the poppy
4:26 am
fields and the drug dealers who run them have been getting stronger in fact at this point drug production in afghanistan is twenty five times higher than before washington got involved whereas all these opium going how about the united states which is currently suffering from a crisis of opioid addiction well the u.s. drug enforcement agency says that there's no connection southwest asian heroin is by far the most common type of heroin produced in the world however its availability in the u.s. market is very low the u.n. agency begs to differ in different parts of the united states there has been a. resurgence in the consumption of heroin and afghanistan is now producing huge quantities we know a great deal of heroin currently comes from mexico but now of ghana stands looking at the u.s. for the distribution and consumption of its heroin now the u.s. special inspector for afghanistan says that opioids from afghanistan are coming to the u.s. via canada the u.s. department of homeland security currently lists the flow of illicit drugs as the
4:27 am
greatest threat on the northern border for the next time you hear u.s. officials decrying the opioid crisis plaguing the nation and you see images like this. you might also want to keep images like this in mind. artsy new york the managing editor of a new side veterans today jim dean says the war on terror is simply putting money in the pockets of u.s. intelligence agencies and politicians. the or we went in afghanistan there was almost no here when production they are and then of course after we went n. it miraculously began to skyrocket because the northern warlords went back into growing opium to fund the war and also to enrich themselves later that the u.s. contractors for people who were involved in doing
4:28 am
a lot of the air flights in and out of the country began shipping drugs later we found out that a lot of the increase in heroin production was being officially done and the money going in the pockets of benchley ending up in political campaigns in the u.s. and also to fund black projects for intelligence operations that they didn't want anything in congress to know their news continues and hoffa know. about your sudden passing i phone lee just learned you were yourself and taken your last wrong turn. your act right up to you as we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry. so i write these last words in hopes to put to rest these things that i
4:29 am
never got off my chest. i remember when we first met my life turned on each other. but then my feeling started to change you talked about more like it was again still some are fond of you those that didn't like to question are are. you secretly promised to never like it's one does not leave a funeral in the same as one enters mind gets consumed with this. speech there were no other takers. to claim that mainstream media has met its maker. seemed wrong but all just don't. get to shape out just because the ticket and engagement equals betrayal.
