4:01 am
good morning this is our to choose to the fifteenth of august here in moscow it's kevin zero in with first in this thirty minute news update the two days after those bloody clashes in the u.s. turn of charlottesville donald trump has finally bowed to overwhelming pressure made a second statement denouncing racism and hate groups he's been under fire though for failing to single out the role of white supremacists in saturday's brawls which culminated in a car being driven into a crowd of protesters killing one woman we condemn in the strongest possible terms . this egregious display of hatred bigotry and violence on many sites on many shows. racism is evil and those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs including the k.k.k.
4:02 am
neo nazis white supremacists and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as americans despite him saying about that much the media still criticize the president for his delayed response leading him to tweet the news media will never be satisfied then he headed to new york where he was met by crowds of protesters outside trump tower accusing him of racism next scallop mopin looks at how america's political debate is now what about labeling. one of the chants most frequently used at the protests is no trump no k.k.k. hell fascist usa essentially trump and his supporters of being barred with the same brush as white supremacy. that. the suspect in the horrific charlottesville car ramming was himself
4:03 am
a member of the far right but the mayor of the city was very quick to put his blame on the white house and president romney and he wasn't alone he should look in the mirror when he made a choice in his presidential campaign the folks around with him to you know go right to the gutter to play on our worst prejudices and i think you are seeing a direct line from what happened here this weekend to those choices trump has made it clear with bannon gorka in the white house and the klan in the streets it is now the white supremacists house. the incitement of hatred to that got us here is as real and condemn the bill as the white supremacists you know was tweets the democratic response to the car ramming mirrors the way republicans responded to the shooting at the congressional baseball practice they blame democrats for stoking up the atmosphere while reality the attack was carried out by a was a republican a that you had an increasing intensity of hostility on the left three percent tension has been building. since election night the hyperball that vitriol from the
4:04 am
left has spurred threats and now action without historical parallel events like today are exactly why we took issue with and why elites glorifying the assassination of a president now most americans liberal conservative or otherwise are not violent however it seems like the leaders of the two major political parties try to make the other half of the electorate look like they are and that seems to be mobilizing people in both camps if you want to start something. and demonize me and i don't you. do that was yes. thank you. thank you betty. that.
4:05 am
was the united states has created a political system in a way to demonizing one side means supporting the other side for many voters those who haven't really learned that much about their party's yet the the solution to this is to reduce some of these impediments to we need a system in which political parties have to fight for their own ideas they have to show why what they believe is good and why it's right and watch an excellent idea. and not just focus on demonizing the other side so no matter what your political outlook is the best strategy seems to be the same generalizing. it will pop and artsy your. name in time a group of protesters has destroyed a statue of a confederate soldier in north carolina a similar civil war monuments are being targeted elsewhere in recent months which should really been regarded as symbolizing racism. ah.
4:06 am
ah in this case he seems demonstrators gathered outside the county courthouse to talk about start shoot some p.p.c. as you can see so far this boulder wrote to bring it to the ground the right wing protest in charlottesville was also censored run the removal of a racially controversial monument you son of have several experts on why i come from tell you should lead to the deadly violence. as a conservative you have to lay blame exactly where it lies lies with this white nationalist group the k.k.k. and any any of their ilk and what they did was they went specifically to you know liberal college towns like charlottesville virginia where the university of virginia is located to store. the stoke the flames of hate and. harbor now that the president clearly renounced the term pin ministration has white supremacists in the white house like steve bannon and sebastian gorka and that if
4:07 am
he is really going to make his words mean anything he should fire them i also want to lay blame on the local authorities for allowing these white supremacist groups not their free speech i am all for free speech but to come in with their weapons their shields their ready for combat their pepper spray everybody who was there no matter what was amazed. amazed at the non-reaction you know this is normally this is a country where we tell the police hey hey back off the hyper militarization of the police but not in charlottesville they do so well guys we're out of here see our a.t.o.s. these people that are writing down in charlottesville are such are fringe percentage of the population is so small we have such strong and civil society groups there
4:08 am
would hate crime have civil war and since donald trump has been in office the southern poverty law center keeps track of those very specifically and the number of hate crimes has absolutely soared we see it is rarely seen worse. any apple less minnesota and the president saying nothing about the bombing of a mosque it's called a eight day fractionalized the stabilizing of pitting white people i guess black people and creating the illusion that diebold trump because he did not list your particular phraseology wrong because he left somewhat out even though he added it's daughter and jeff sessions said they hated everything that was paid for that wasn't good enough young talent and i know it the mainstream media are here to do one thing or one thing only to get rid of this president. you tube and its
4:09 am
parent company google of being accused of stifling alternative viewpoints seems they've cracked their own extremist content but they've also removed legitimate files from journalists and opposition groups as juggling to good report. internet regulation is becoming ever more automated meaning the machines are now in charge of monitoring what you write and post so when you have your video taken down it's nothing personal it's just the algorithm you tube now has computers largely responsible for blocking the stream of content and the company is head over heels with the cutting edge technology that makes this all possible over seventy five percent of the videos we've removed for violent extremism over the past month were taken down before receiving a single human flag and that all sounds well and good given that in theory machines should be objective but it turns out they're not recently we've seen a number of journalists monitors and syrian opposition groups have their content blocked despite the fact that very similar videos were untouched on mainstream news
4:10 am
channels you two pages those who are targeted say the site is purposely trying to erase certain documentation of the war i think what's so troubling about this if we look at the syrian accounts this is video chronicling a six or seven year war and some of the most important parts of that war from the perspective of syrians you tube though still has faith that its machines know best well these tools are imperfect and untried for every setting in many cases our systems have proven more accurate than humans at flag in videos that need to be removed and the video sharing web site isn't alone in being found at fault google has also come under fire for showing bias that was after a number of left wing and progressive news outlets were removed from search results after new protocols were enacted by google those alternative sites claim they've seen a drastic drop and eye to video on their pages sense then yet the search engine giant says the newly adopted policies were applied simply to help improve the quality of results we updated our research quality rater guidelines to flag upsetting user
4:11 am
experiences including pages that present conspiracy theories unless the query clearly indicates the user is seeking an alternative view point. and that last little bit is very important to take note of unless a user specifically indicates they are interested in a quote alternative viewpoint they will be getting that when you look at the actual application of the artificial intelligence programs what you actually see is the. common and very natural organic stupidity of silicon valley elites who are since sorious in nature and actually seek to scrub the internet of divergent opinions the journalist yasha levine actually tested google's artificial intelligence which rate certain phrases as toxic so yasha levine put in phrases for example like america is corrupt and that was rate is ninety two percent toxic meanwhile when yahshua
4:12 am
levine entered the phrase hitler was right in everything he did it was only thirty four percent toxics so censorship continues to rear its ugly head online but where a group of experts could have been made to answer for this before there are now only machines which as we've seen aren't as unbiased as we first thought jack and look at r.t. washington d.c. . elections are looming for europe's powerhouse germany but despite the potential far reaching consequences of that vote things seem to be a bit less true at the moment and certainly not the public's attention too much in contrast of course to how the french company was running at this stage. some of them things looking at. that making sure she could have been a good deal with as you like.
4:13 am
us. on. next the namely c. checks where the german election race is heading so far. angle america is not only one of the world's most powerful leaders she may well be one of the world's most laid back politicians so much so that she decided to take three weeks off and then telling else right before the german voters determine whether or not she can run for a fourth term next month the fact that she chose to wear the very same outfit for
4:14 am
the last five trips she took to the same location just goes to show how well she understands her people that they prefer the status quo and change isn't necessarily good don't take my word for it just take a look at the polls support for merkel drop ten points while she's breathing in that italian a mountain air but she's still way ahead of her rival as speedy leader march and schultz who couldn't get any hiking stations in his schedule because he's busy campaigning like any other politician would the former european parliament spokesman even try to provoke a reaction from the chancellor by claiming germany is not prepared for the future influx of refugees but not only that merkel ignore all of his papa cations just pepper sprayed him a nickname of the chancellor shadowboxer courtesy of the local media the feeling of solidarity between states has been lost how do they get to this when did it start did it begin with a man whose decision to open borders without any agreement with our partners in a moment when those partners were overloaded. on the horizon is quite easy to
4:15 am
describe it's an s.p. the led government in september. i came to the streets of berlin to ask german voters not campaigning is a more subtle and effective form of electioneering when i ask you what you think about the election campaign so far because it's expensive right. there campaigning. yeah i'm not so into. his politics and. actually i can. tell you right now because i think like i'm working so hard right now i'm not. i don't know anything about right now i'm not into the election right now so far i would think about the election. in germany well it's a good question and it's like to tell you they're enjoying the summer and cast the
4:16 am
right ball come autumn says this poster of america cd your party which apple a similar her laid back campaign style and they still artsy. meanwhile fresh back from holiday than just about the election. frosty reception one rally. where she was booed and wishful thinking about the country's refugee policy supporters of the right leaning alternative for germany party staged a protest against merkel policy of open borders for refugees building banners reading merkel must go and borders instead of seen my reference to merkel's party he also called for the chancellor to resign to political analyst a consultant told the students generally don't take political risks. well the german is different and if you compare him to the american or to french people germans usually are rather conservative they do not like experiments
4:17 am
at the do not tend to support political movements that are under heavy criticism so if something like this turn into for germany or also. you will immediately see that the political players with the help of the media attack those nuns and people will just be scared away from supporting such parties and therefore the germans they are specifically conservative they are fearful. even also supporting the movements that are under criticism and therefore i think you cannot expect from germany a leadership in the real big challenges of our times in the stories coming up seems the honeymoon is already over for president mark cronus the french public phones
4:18 am
other lover the leader just one hundred days into the job tell him about that and the rest of the news coming up. seemed wrong but all wrong just don't call. me. yet to shape out this day comes to educate and gain from it because betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. in case you're new to the game this is how it works not the economy is built around
4:19 am
corners corporations run washington washington controls the media the media the voters elected a businessman to run this country business equals power you must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. why get an elderly palestinian couple who've lived in the same house in east jerusalem for more than fifty years are nonetheless about to be evicted by israeli authorities. will if for fifty three years in this house it is a great injustice that israel should give us back our land our homes and. they take all of trailers. for me a seventy six years old
4:20 am
a husband's eighty four they move into that house back in one hundred sixty four which is three years before israel took over eastern jerusalem she says the threat now though of action has left them in despair. the last person and the police are threatening us we don't know what to do we are sitting here like fools we don't know whether to stay or leave we have nowhere to go to maybe if we were to find at least a room we could leave but even if you were to drag out my husband he would refuse to go there when the israeli law stipulates the jewish residents can claim the rights to a property if they have proof that their families lived there prior to the one nine hundred forty eight war a right leaning settle a group in this case called the israeli land for one a court battle to claim the elderly couples house the group's director insists it's more by discrimination here the rights. to be alone in the middle of.
4:21 am
the meal for one don't mean to go out and leave telling you no i don't want to go out and this is what you must. know after all that the top of the not they don't want to give to let you go out from our. apartment so then we told them we took them to quote this is sparked anger among east jerusalem zero population with people who help preserve the couple's house and support the same fate awaits other residents in east jerusalem if looking back according to human rights watch fifteen thousand palestinians have been stripped of their residency status over the last fifty years. believes the strong presence of the israeli lobby abroad to prevents condemnation from turning into any real action situation now. is truly awful idea that these seven people might be evicted from their homes any day now is something that should trouble each and every person in jerusalem not only in it there are forty four other families who might face eviction if this election
4:22 am
takes place and there is the peace chance for peace for all the people in jerusalem and in this region that is in jeopardy every time a new hatreds goes into our homes into people's houses throws people out and put by land settlers instead of them persons are being talked about a lot and the issue of the occupation is being brought up again and again in different places around the world but that actual action is not really been taken i think that israel has a very strong lobby around the world. after just one hundred days as the president from seems the shine has drifted somewhat from emanuel mccrum was heralded as the champion of democratic values he's now even more unpopular than his predecessor. what's behind this seeming fall from grace. on may the seven for emanuel macross went to power as president of france.
4:23 am
his share of the vote was sixty six percent is thirty nine years promised a fresh new era these i am totally for the construction of a new model of governance people do seeing that we need reform we want to do reform so we with the reform we are a movement of profound renovation fast forward one hundred days and across popularity has fallen faster than any french president even his predecessor francois a long known as mr unpopular by the end of his presidency because of his record low ratings was doing better one hundred days in the nosedive in microns popularity came after he said he wanted to reign like the mystical jupiter father of the gods while his first divine intervention was to force his military chief to resign after telling him in public that he macro knows better because he is in charge as you
4:24 am
would wish if you near city didn't place you. in another high handed move macro cancelled the traditional bastille day media conference apparently because he regards his views as too deep for the shallow press and when micro wanted to make his wife the first lady with a public salary over three hundred thousand signed a petition against the plan saying they didn't want a queen bridgette so in just one hundred days the darling of the french voters and the new face of french politics has lost the love of his people experts suggest voters fail to notice he was really offering them anything new in the first place he claimed to be and their turn a diva to the order way of doing politics but he was born and raised in this system his education his you know forest of jobs and to be an investment banker over here with all his career and the oprah's fear is of of our elites the only difference
4:25 am
between him and you in mccall of the vicious order system is his age or in his mother is in his way of governing arkell predicament the same after three months the president has already fallen from grace or as one commentator put it the comments might cross or indeed jupiter has come back down into the atmosphere a partridge party paris microbes ratings are also believed to be influenced by his apparent obsession with his public image these days he wanted a bigger office photo than any other president for instance and it looks like he tried to copy some other leaders hot winning photos check this just likes predecessors seizes seized every photo of he can use big football fan to like barack obama mccrone also seems to be taken some other cues from another former french president charles de gaulle might be published in the journalist emirate morville believes image is the only thing that mccrone can control within his party right now. he's compelled to enter the fray because the m.p.'s he has over push
4:26 am
his policy has been created it out of the blue and because they have eighty percent of the center seats they haven't hired people like in a business firm but without any experience of the political world you have for instance an m.p.'s who said that there will be late at the trench assembly because they have their tennis lessons and you can find m.p.'s welcome to unable to answer two simple questions to journalists mr merkel doesn't have any policy that's why he pay so much attention to his image that's the only thing he can control in fact. that's the news rather things for company join me for the next update just personally but this time i get they are to take us with you on the move.
4:27 am
in case you're new to the game this is how it works in the economy is built around corporation corporations run washington the washington post media the media. voters elect it business to run this country business because. you must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. a batch or sudden passing i phone lee just learned. a south and taken your last turn. up to you as we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry for me i could so i write these last words in hopes to put to rest these things that i 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

more fun to feel those that didn't like to question our arc and i secretly promised to never be like it said one does not leave a funeral the same as one enters the mind it's consumed with death this one quite different i speak to you now because there are no other takers. to claim that mainstream media has met its maker. actually had. a could have plea state that the abuse related to contracts awarded to k.b.r. represents the most blatant and improper contract of abuse i have witnessed during the course of my professional career it's suspicious on how hollow go to no big
