a tourist hot spot people from my this thirty nationalities became the victims of this atrocity. and the tragic reality is that events such as this are now such across border threats that even members of one family can become victims all witnesses of different attacks across europe we met one such witness while covering the events here impossible or not. it was painfully familiar you knew immediately what what was going on i mean i live this life my daughter lived next to the bottle 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 the 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 local but now i ask myself if these networks are starting to pick up on their own and whether they'll become just more widespread marker cross your. yes the fruit seller across from the bar. in brussels. to a hell of a lot more that was going on with the police but no one seems to be. you know

understanding what is going on in these networks and there are other examples as well manchester bombing survivor chris pauley also managed to escape death again part of their arms and for another survivor to be a moment the boss a loner attack. brush with terror and perhaps it's no surprise if you look at how often attacks on curate these days experts now say that terrorism is a new normality in europe here on the rambla it looks like it's already returned to normal partridge azzi. spain wasn't the only country to fall victim to an attack in finland two women died in the knife front page in what turned out to be the country's first ever terror incident six people were wounded before police managed to shoot the suspect in the leg and then arrest him but people have been urged to stay away from crowded places and security measures have been stepped up at airports and stations its acts in spain and finland are the latest in the wave of terror which has hit europe in

arrest. all. ills. but. cautious at this time. it could happen almost anywhere to be you'd have to literally be watching everybody and have logarithm set to pick up key words and phrases in every single conversation and

communication across an entire continent 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 they're now looking to him i mean it was predictable it's nothing that we didn't expect. the states were running against white supremacy in the city of dallas resulted in tensions between the protesters and a group of activists calling for the protection of a confederates that she. was. a police moved in to protect a group of demonstrators in favor of the monument remaining both sides reported so however there's no reports of any shots being fired tensions are part of the fallout from last weekend's deadly violence in the u.s. town of charlottesville which was also centered around the removal of

a civil war monuments similar efforts to take down the statues guarded by some as symbolizing racism have taken place across the country. was with god but this simple. thanks i think they are dangerous totems in our dallas society because they divide us versus unite us. racial tensions. the u.s. have been stoked off the donald trump appeared to back down from singling out the role of white supremacists in last saturday's winds in kenya hundreds protested

against trump's response on monday outside his residence in new york and washington d.c. has been looking at how america's political debate is now all about labeling this report does contain scenes of violence. and 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 are being barred with the same brush as white supremacy. ok. now the suspect in the horrific charlottesville car ramming was himself 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 trump and he wasn't alone he should look in the mirror and he made a choice in his presidential campaign the folks around with them to you know to go right to the gutter to play on our worst prejudices and i think you are seeing

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 your mom. was. thank you. thank you betty. that. 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 parties yet 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 watch an excellent idea. 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 demonize tabletop and artsy to your. campaigns to reunite. with their families strapped in iraq that story coming up after the break. here's what people have been saying about redacted in the sixties full on awesome the only show i go out of my way to launch you know what it is that really packs a punch oh yeah it is the john oliver of party americans do the same we are apparently better than blue things but i see people you've never heard of love

a mother to see just. let. this little. this was a mom i know never mom or dad and what kind of other horrendous things these people went through somewhere by the river in mosul we can only guess mariam doesn't remember anything more or just can't talk about it we ask about her father but she can barely see a thing but we knew him well stayed with us from below do you. believe . this yet there is a glimmer of hope that she can grow up in peace and reunite with her family grandparents. but the road. does involve the stuff. that elicited was. it tough.

with elections looming for europe's economic powerhouse germany painting seems to be somewhat lackluster at the spot potential significance of september's vote especially so in contrast to how impassioned the french campaign was at this same point just one month before the country goes to the polls. some of them thank you. because you did.

of the german chancellor seems to be taking the easy road on the election trial. and facing down her rivals on live t.v. she said brawl goes on youtube and when he looks at why she might be taking the stuff for auction. engler merkel should be feeling energized and a fresh after her three week break in the italian alps but judging from her latest election campaigning looks like she's still in vacation mode the chancellor spent time talking politics with several young celebrities here in germany one of them is a video blogger that specializes in german izing american pop hits another is a lifestyle blog where the shares her experiences and ventures with her viewers oh and there's also a fashion and beauty blogger. ok. this

is stars. and this is me in a quite nice outfit texas my skin and how these beauty and tech bloggers were chosen to speak to merkel at the height of her campaign we don't know but hot political topics were brought up and the chancellor was cool calm and collected in her answers for. are there any plans for electric cars. that we need to create infrastructure which will motivate people to use electric vehicles many people are currently afraid they will be able to get to work at home but won't be able to get back home and that's what is your favorite smiley the smiley with the small hard on that he was surprised that i computed longer was chosen to conduct an interview with you many have said that my subscribers are not smart enough to ask the right question and. it seems silly to me that some consider

people from the beauty industry unable to make the right decision in the elections this is a everyone is able to name. honestly when you read donald trump's tweet by phrases like. what do you think about what comes into your head top of the story we should generally be careful which language language is often a step towards escalation and violence i stammered and by all means. against this. instead of meeting with the legitimate media with people who are trained she just checked when the politicians are playing games chancellor merkel has a group of amateurs with whom she can play and that's what's happening here it reminds me of a prize fighter who is that strange to me a real challenger is the softest question and answer pro-choice that she could face it is the i feel for all that you should know wants to be. smooth sailing for

angela merkel there but it certainly won't be so easy when she faces off her main rival martin schulte in september. for everybody it should be clear what is on the central government and that when the headquarters of a governing party systematically decide to reject the debate on the country's future when a party comes and says we do not have anything to do with this and we do not debate this during the election campaign and it is the arrogance of power nothing else the ladies and gentlemen you know. german broadcasters want to read the sign of the bate so there's more room for spontaneity allowing the two politicians to challenge each other more america's team reportedly threatened to cancel so the broadcasters gave up there were forty five minutes provided for each block of the t.v. programme the chancellor's representatives did not agree with such dramatic changes and refused to participate under these conditions with campaigning in germany stepping up appear before the election angle america seems to be making sure she's

in that driving seat and they are to. get more of those stories on our website all to dot com all we're back in the meantime with more news in about twenty minutes to the. we all willingly accepted the risk of being shot wounded taken prisoner but none of us signed up to be free poisoned by our own people that was nuclear biological and chemical products the said do not truck tires all types of styrofoam polystyrene 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 b.a. broke and they don't want to pay it so the waiting decades a lot of those soldiers will die in time and they will have to pay and. call for help and get the middle finger to move used to model is. delayed and i hope you don't.
