those. police in finland say they now believe that friday's stabbing attack which left it was an act of terror the main suspect is an eighteen year old moroccan asylum seeker. meanwhile seven people are nine during an assault and police haven't confirmed it was terrorism although its law makes state claims and was responsible also coming up. we didn't get any benefit from the u.s. they target civilians but they don't target militants. still progress in increasing casualties said donald trump feels to outline

a new strategy for america's longest running conflict. coming to you live from moscow this is our national welcome to the program. police have confirmed they are treating friday's a mass stabbing which left two people died as an act of terror four people have been arrested on suspicion of enforcement in the attack and among them as the teenager believed to have carried out the stabbing his an eighteen year old moroccan and was previously known to be a story to us we spoke to a journalist in the city of torque zero where the assault happened. but the finished polish just had a press conference very interesting details had been revealed about this terrorist

attack here into a cool ollie's considers the possibility that the american eighty million american asylum seeker had to be purposefully targeting we mean dick to whom did men actually got to who indeed because they jumped in to protect the women close to damn police also said that they are looking into the group of six maroko and possibly asylum seekers all of them the perpetrator who committed the stabbing yesterday killed two people and wounded eight others himself in a hospital in intensive care before other asylum seekers had been arrested overnight and the van is song where at large possibly in europe some finnish police go pretty close it together with the international police force with in support we also heard that there are two finnish people who died in this stopping and three for readers one it's holly and a university researcher one brit and one swedish person who did all these three are

still in hospital police had. given decided that they think that this was a planned action. this was not just out of the blue so more details they did not disclose during the press conference but they clearly think that this action what will have to be this yesterday had to. resulted to people dying on the streets of who had been very well planned and carried out the brutality. police and the russian says he have sort of could have shot him man dad after he wondered seven people and knife attack and vast again or say that they're looking into a number of possible motives i saw meanwhile has claimed to it what responsible and get it done of has more on what we know. officially the police have not confirmed anything at this point we know that this is a high profile investigation and also the police are looking into the possibility

into reports that the suspect may have been mentally unstable we've seen the footage from this scene of attack some really graphic images of seven people have been injured some of them apparently heavily and if it wasn't for a regular police dispatcher the outcome of the outcome of the incident may have been much much worse much more gruesome because as the man was going on a rampage stabbing people somebody managed to call the police and just a regular police dispatch showed up and eventually the took out the suspect now the details of the incident and still pretty scars but we will be bringing you more as we get it. protests have erupted in the spanish city of barcelona in the wake of this week's twin terror attacks which left fourteen people died and over one hundred injured and islam demonstrators clashed with groups who had turn out to oppose them on last round us where a van plowed into crowds of people. over

. i. i mean while it's a marriage that some of those caught up in the attacks in spain had been affected by terrorism and the past crease pooley was one of them and he had survived at the manchester bowling and another as julia monaco the barcelona attack was her third brush with terrorists while the family of school tran who was also on the us has experienced two deadly events parties kate partridge spoke with him. what happened here in the heart of barcelona affected hundreds of people their relatives and their loved ones but what's perhaps even more tragic is that this also affected members of one particular family we spoke to

a man who was caught up in the attack here on the ground on thursday while his niece survived the horrors of the paris atrocity talking twenty fifteen at the back to class theater. was painfully familiar you knew immediately what what was going on i mean i live this life my daughter live next to the buffet in paris my niece was just here for me it's not like for most people here a sudden unexpected. event for me this is the life i live. i've been working in the immigrant communities and i've been working on jihadi networks all across europe and i thought immediately that it's most likely a moroccan network was interesting because isis had always use spain as this

principal. jumping off point for getting recruits into turkey and syria and the question for me is while isis was in control the attacks were fairly localized but now i ask myself if these networks are starting to look up on their own and whether they'll become just more widespread in the arctic or cross your. yes the fruit seller across from the bar in. brussels what's going on he knew a hell of a lot more that was going on than the police but no one seems to be engaged in understanding what is going on in these networks figure into cameras captured the moment the vans passed the shop on the last round us and boss alone now but aspirants can be seen trying to get out of its path that's not mixtape later claimed responsibility for the atrocity and we spoke to former british home office

or a counterterrorism advisor. and he believes attacks of this nature are impossible to prevent. we always knew there was going to be blowback for what happened in iraq the vacuum that was created by the illegal invasion by coalition forces in iraq and the fact that isis filled that vacuum and then are looking to him i mean it was predictable it's nothing that we didn't expect i mean it could happen almost anywhere to be fair sometimes these are unpredictable like for instance what's happened in finland recently completely unprovoked attack despite the fact that their security services did say there was a risk it is a country that is otherwise neutral so it's very difficult to predict and sometimes these are talks of completely random which makes it even more difficult to ascertain like i said random unprovoked like for instance what's happened in finland recently it is very very difficult i mean you'd have to literally be watching everybody and have local rhythm set to pick up key words and phrases in

every single conversation and communication across an entire continent that's remarkably difficult these are random attacks and they are difficult to ascertain and to evaluate and assess. the american presidency chief strategist steve bannon has all left the white house even before donald trump took office bannon was seen as a key figure and his team however he spent only six months as the president's top deficient white house statement explained that the decision for bannon's departure as a mutual one he'll now return to being the executive chairman of news one commentator we spoke to downs that bannon zags it will help trump in the long run. and it is the one guy in the white house that the deplorable like they know him they like him they admire him and the fact that he's been hated by the media and hated by all the

lefties is just the. icing on the cake for these people they all they like. you know the fact that he's being in that band is being attacked raises him in there and there are. steam so the fact that trump fired him will hurt it's going to i think the white house polling is going to show him after this sinks in to everybody that it's hurt him with his own base not something he going to ford by the way does from a political standpoint than an as the latest in a long list of departures from the trumpet ministration following has acted to ban and said that his ready to go to move war for trump against his opponent on capitol hill as well as the media and corporate america however here is what he at it late the trump presidency that we fought for and won he's over we still have a huge movement and we will make something of the strong presidency but that presidency is over one analyst with spoke to believes that the establishment is

trying to push out those who challenge it. trouble is still determined to fight unregulated globalism to preserve the constitution of this country to reform the vast excesses in spending in our government spend six trillion dollars a year all governments inside the united states just on government six trillion dollars is an awful lot of money to be spending on government and he embedded others were trying to change that but they came up against i think some globalists and professors in the us capital have toward painting over a statue the confederate a military officer and are demanding that it be taken down the monument represents officer albert pike and is located and judiciary square and washington scuffles broke out next to the stage when several men claiming to be one list argued with

protesters fish for racially divisive monuments as playing out across the country after the end rest in the city of charlottesville a week ago a new york subway tile of the times square station will now be altered due to their resemblance to the confederate flag these are not confederate flags it is a design based on jus metric forms that represent the crossroads of the world and to avoid absolutely any confusion we will modify them to make that absolutely crystal clear. to scallop mop and reports now from new york on the controversy which has brought america's historical thinkers to the forefront not long ago we were out here on the streets of new york asking people if they thought that every monument to a slave owner should be demolished even if their founding fathers. did they stop madison avenue. and rename it yeah i think it's fine so if one person is

the football that will be by the city you'd be a good idea to take it to. anything that's owned by a slave owner should be changed yeah it should be washington didn't go to war to defend slavery and i think concerts is very important even though we didn't expect people to want to tear down monuments to figures that are almost sacred in american history like george washington or thomas jefferson the idea now seems to be gaining momentum he wasn't protecting my freedom i wasn't someone who my ancestors weren't deemed human beings to him and so to me i don't care if it's a george washington statue or a thomas jefferson statue or robert e. lee statue they all need to calm down and if those two aren't enough for you how about we try let's blow up mt rushmore that was actually the title of an article from vice media before they changed it to something a little less insatiable but the point was pretty much the same now it's certainly true that george washington and thomas jefferson own slaves mr president look i

think the issue is that you and robert e. lee both own slaves right there was about. that was wrong but if you want talk about owning slaves you should talk about thomas jefferson well although you. abraham lincoln certainly did not own slaves he was always an outspoken opponent of slavery which he ended up abolishing in the context of a civil war now you would think he wouldn't be a target for anger but the people who did this certainly think he is going to launch a full scale war against history he's probably expect that there's going to be collateral damage.

from. this type of actions should have been taken then perhaps fifty years ago with the civil rights movement this is whole situation has been created by certain media outlets like for example c.n.n. that they have you know pushed down on the narrative on the fact that you know that trump is a racist or that everybody that support a tribe is a racist or or even going further that every single white person is races and i'm completely against this. discontent is growing in afghanistan over u.s.

military policy within the country well that send much more right after the break. what. they put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and you. want. to go to the press this is what before three of the more people. interested in the water. tanks that's a seventy billion dollars potential loss and you point out it's mostly private investors which would include let's say goldman sachs and others but if these folks like a goldman sachs suffer any losses at all remember they've taken over the government

for a bailout so they could go to the government and say we need to bail out and the government because it's staffed by goldman sachs employees. they would rubber stamp that and then to pay for the bailout they'd have to go into people's attention accounts and they have to grab that money or wells fargo and go into your personal account and grab that money. welcome back frustrated afghans are growing increasingly easy over the u.s. led military campaign and their country saying the civilian deaths and destruction are yielding few results in the fight against i sell. can you see the damage to. the mother in that area we didn't get any benefit from

the u.s. civilian houses but they don't tug on so move they say they don't ration us to finish but in front they don't. most of the time they didn't target their valuable islamic state groups or active. i've. when the u.s. and afghan commandos came here they first dropped the mother of all bombs in the area in the last six months they only captured a one kilometer area from islamic state militants we don't know what the problems were why they didn't advance if i had two helicopters with a hundred armed men i could clear this valley of enemies in a matter of hours but they didn't do it. meanwhile president trump has spent several hours at a meeting with his military and foreign policy teams discussing the long awaited strategy update on the war in afghanistan he took to twitter to announce the decisions have been made but didn't specify the white house media release didn't

give any details i them in sound saying information would be released at an appropriate time or washington correspondent john king reports. america's war in afghanistan has been ongoing for sixteen years and seen three different presidents come and go on my orders the united states military has begun strikes against al qaeda terrorist training camps and military installations of the taliban regime in afghanistan i know that many of you have grown weary of this conflict. as you are well aware i do not support the idea of endless war given what's at stake in afghanistan i am firmly convinced that we should make this extra effort seventeen years or longer stores it's a very big decision for me i took over a mess and we're going to. make it a lot less messy the results while even u.s. generals have a rather bleak outlook on the progress made or not understand it's my responsibility

we're not winning in afghanistan right now mr chairman i believe we're in a stalemate at this point u.s. casualties in afghanistan are approaching the same numbers as the victims of the nine eleven attack the tragedy that triggered the u.s. campaign the taliban still controls a significant part of the country and is making efforts to expand its influence investing in afghan forces at this point doesn't seem justifiable so far little has been achieved a new strategy settled on so what is team trump doing about it we know what the strategy was for the last eight years don't lose that hasn't worked when can we expect the congress you know understood each. to get a strategy for afghanistan that is a departure from the last eight years which is don't lose well on friday the president has national security team were moving over the options and according to some reports trump has option a and b.

one boots on the ground preferred by military officials being a strategy to break this stalemate and is it going to require additional u.s. troops and do believe it will involve additional forces to ensure that we can. make the advise and assist mission more more effective or move out of afghanistan altogether and let private contractors help local afghan forces either way the u.s. defense secretary has indicated a decision is imminent we will move this toward a decision as i said i think it was yesterday publicly we are coming very close to a decision and to spend it in the very near future so for now we all just have to wait on the edge of our seats to see which way the american troops rollercoaster will roll this time up or down doesn't go r.t. washington d.c. . president every gun has had some. foreign minister with some ski thing criticism after gabrielle accused him of

interfering into upcoming election. he knows no boundaries who are you to talk to the president of turkey i know your place he's trying to teach us a lesson how long have you been in politics how old are you. the latest round began over president gunn school for nationals not to vote for establishment polities including chancellor. that caused a major. media minister gabrielle described it as a brutal modeling and the country's internal affairs and unprecedented sounds the way it as an attack and particularly against medical wants has been facing a lot of public criticism from german officials to lately gabrielle for instance has accused them of. the u.s. after she pledged to boost nato spending the chancellor was also hochul it at

a rally she spoke at. this is. this is no it's a. very narrow up form and an intelligence officer told us that school will have a little impact and the election. thing. with the. short you know the hope very much because. of the. group do stuff for parties or. change or to amongst. to push german citizens. so i think it may be over. the course election

recruitment. would be. you know. how king tool with the potential to alter a crime scene for the first time research as in the us have created a d.n.a. strand that can enter the trade computers well they successfully encoded malware into a small d.n.a. sequence thing purchased on the internet then when a computer was used to try and analyze the biological data the device was compromised although the scientists behind the experiment say that they are breakthrough doesn't pose much of a security threat and that it was just about highlighting possible risks and the philadelphia biohacking some experts believe otherwise while they warn that cyber criminals could for example alter d.n.a. evidence planted false information on

a person's genetic profile and gain access to sensitive conclude our record. it's for a philosopher a voice at the stance of a slippery slope it's just an interesting thing the procedure logic really looks very complicated but we should look at the big debate don't eat. human life. and they do is she really. so we have effectively entering some kind of a post-human universe where everything you know to most identity and be reduced to a thought of the fact that it was possible to break. a computer through d.n.a. d.n.a. means over i. mean by d.n.a. is nothing more than just that a computer. and now the skyline of

the russian capital is being lets up with thousands of fly works the international pyrotechnic class this spectacular display is being put on by russia's biggest high tech company ross stack which is celebrating its town's anniversary. the today show sees attempts from europe asia and south america to battle in a competition to take first price and moscow and there is plenty to whet your appetite for hearing the day as well with entertainment wrenching from concerts to activities for children and the right scenes on offer. you're watching our international morning the story coming up your way at the top

of the hour. in case you're new to the game this is how it works in our economy is built around corporation corporations around washington washington controls the media the media and the. voters elect the businessman to run this country business equals power who must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before . we all willingly accepted the risk of being shot wounded taken prisoner but noone has signed up to the flag and poisoned by our own people i've seen stuff that was nuclear biological and chemical products the said

do not find the truck tires all types of styrofoam will polystyrene these batteries trucks there was a complete denial i think at all levels of government that there was any connection between berm pits and what these brave soldiers were suffering from to compensate every soldier marine airman and sailor that was on the ground that are complaining about illnesses from their exposure from the berm pits would really literally send a v.a. broke and they don't want to pay it so the way to the decades a lot of those soldiers will die and the time and they will have to pay and. cultural to get the middle finger to move used to model is. delayed and i hope you don't.

oh hi there i'm extractor this is the kaiser report today and now our unit and i bring it over right now they say. well you know who has been in the news many many many times in the past few years because it's disinter mediating the whole taxi space taxi medallions are crashing in price all over the world from new york city to chicago i don't think they have medallions in london or places like that but it's certainly messing up that situation over there they've had loss after loss after loss after loss they seem to be a loss making operation part of that is in order to basically become a monopoly in the city so they've been losing billions of dollars it's not a publicly listed company but there are a lot of big investors like goldman sachs throwing billions of dollars at them to create a global monopoly but here is the latest in their debacle of the.
