here in moscow welcome to our teens and national with me news coming up for you from all around the world beginning in spain which saw its deadliest terror attack in thirty years after two separate vehicles plowed into but astronauts killing fourteen and injuring one hundred more and show you the immediate aftermath of driving into a crowd of boss alone just a warning to viewers though the video does contain distressing images. and i saw many people running the covered bodies of kids lying in the street this

is a tragedy. that. saw an avalanche of people running in every direction and when it was total chaos we had no idea what was going on and i didn't see the plan i just heard a boom boom boom sound and people screaming. and. i saw all of the blood it was. very well done on the street like it's crazy it's just. ok let's get some more details now around five pm on thursday a white van was driven into people on the popular pedestrian our streets of los rumble us going through central los lonely here it's a focal point for tourists in the city and drove five hundred meters it finally

came to a stop here on plots. when the driver fled he's still on the loose just hours later a similar incident occurred in the resort town of cambodia this. police opened fire on a vehicle off it failed to stop at a security check the call then carried on and struck people in the problem all before turning over. five occupants they emerged and tried to talk but as chins with knives was soon shot dead by police authorities believe the perpetrators of the two incidents were linked to no planning much bigger attacks. in spain. i'm here on the rambler in the hearts of vassallo know where the deadly terror attack took place on thursday this pos at the city is a tourist hot spot people from my this thirty nationalities became the victims of this atrocity. i.

was. and the tragic reality is that events such as this are now such across borders 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 this principal. jumping off point for getting recruits into turkey. in syria and the question for me is while isis was in control the attacks were fairly local but now i ask myself what these networks are striving to. on their own and whether they'll become more widespread across europe. 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 the police but no one seems to be engaged in 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 on

their own blood and for another survivor to be a moment the boss alone or attack it was the third brush with terror and perhaps it's no surprise if you look at how often attacks rock europe these days experts now say that terrorism is a new normality in europe here on the roundabout it looks like it's already returned to normal partridge azzi. also this week in finland two women died in a knife attack in what turned out to be the country's first ever terror incident eight people were wounded before police managed to shoot the suspect in the leg and arrest him people have to stay away from crowded places and security measures have been stepped up at airports and stations as well its actions spain and finland are the latest in the wave of terror which has hit europe in a little less than two years.

isis magazine direction almost a twenty truck and drive into a crowd. of

. counter terror experts followed her believes europe should be more concerned now about homegrown terrorism all the individuals being involved arrive form much as start to london to parties you know now to to possibly into all the individuals involved. cogeneration grounds was a truth in your book so they're not people they're not people travelling from the muslim called muslim countries into europe they're not involved the people involved

own grown terrorist group and day and we need to start looking at what are the drivers what is causing this diaspora why this individual's not pointed lines of their parents why did give in to violence extremist. that's the question we need those are the questions that we need to find a system. that was the states where running against white supremacy ism in the city of dallas has resulted in tensions between the protesters on a group of activists calling for the protection of a confederates that she. was. out. of the. police moved in to protect a group of demonstrators in favor of the monument remaining both sides are reported to have been however there's no reports of shots being fired tensions are part of the fallout from last week's deadly violence in the u.s. town of charlottesville which was also centered around the removal of a civil war one human similar efforts the take down the statues were guarded by

some a symbolizing racism have taken place across the country. was i was but this symbolizes. the who we are i think they are dangerous totems in our dallas society because they divide us versus unite us. racial tensions in the u.s. have been stoked after donald trump appeared to back down from singling out the role of white supremacists in last saturday's brawls in virginia hundreds protested against trump's response on monday outside his residence in new york and washington

has been looking at just how america's political debate is now labeling his report we should warn you does contain scenes of violence. one of the chants most frequently used in the protests is no trial no k.k.k. no fascist you. i say essentially trump and his supporters are being tarred with the same brush as white supremacy. ok. ok yes. you are right. you. have a 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 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. this incitement of hatred to that got us here is as real and condemn the bill as the white supremacists and i 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 loud republican hater you had an increasing intensity of hostility on the left three percent tension has been building. since election night. that vitriol from the 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 give. you. 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 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. 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 your. auntie tries to reunite russian orphans stranded in iraq you'll finish with their families that coming up after the break.

seems wrong. just don't. get to shape our. culture. and in. the trail. find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. welcome back to the program has been campaigning to help find relatives of all from russian speaking children stranded in iraq you'll finish this believe their parents traveled to the country to join isilon then abandon them all were killed the way to

receive responses from people who would recognize some of the shoulder in one of those sponsored little mario. a phone call to that very same shelter the voice on the other end says another girl has just been brought in from mosul. but it could be too early to talk for her any question and the girl may break down. in this psychological state she's struggling to answer a question as simple as what's your name got to be. i. just anybody else that. this is that. it's clear mariam is lucky to be alive there are scars right on her face surviving this head injury as almost a miracle. surrounded by other kids in caring shelter workers mariam gradually got to the point when she began talking believe it or not mariam gets

least stressed when she speaks of her once just don't like to kill the children the chill button that. it took oakley. is. a school killing you. like it. it seems the lucky escape happened shortly after that dreadful experience but here's maryam describing what happened just before she found herself at the epicenter of the war. that each witnessed. this that they just didn't do that it will. little if it were known that a lot of mariam is not the only girl who has told us about the horrors by some river that's apparently where many children lost their mothers. the mother to see just. this little.

the mom i know never. did 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 who we knew. that stayed with us and do. believe . this yet there is a glimmer of hope that she can grow up in peace and reunite with her family grandparents. who were washed. you bob the stuff. you can. tell us that it was. it that you know them too much death nothing to do it.

bloke put us up through her reading us go to church soon you know more soon you know and i am. being cheated and that's the end of none of that is this it sure. says that have plans to try not to even study get a motion to do as if. that to me was she. chairs that little people that did nothing but i'm touching it's an attention who didn't really notice the stuff. i. found here i sit here and there is a i hate those that have opened it to a loose guess. that. we've also been

contacted by a couple from they believe they recognize their granddaughter who's also called maria and the girl says she saw both her parents die and that she's originally from . continuing to look for the relatives of those children but more and more arriving . says. the film. itself. if they can get. in other news now elections looming in the europe's economic powerhouse germany campaigning seems to be somewhat lackluster though that's the spike the 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. bottom of the thank you note that he cut. so making shoes he could have but i could live with those you like. i. thank you thank you. thank you thank you.

so many sue has been looking at where the general election race is heading so far. thank you america has 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 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 mean rival as speedy leader marches scholtz couldn't get any hiking sessions in his schedule because he's busy campaigning like any other politician would a march in shots even try to provoke a reaction from the chancellor by claiming that germany is not prepared for the

future influx of refugees but not only that merkel ignore all of his propagations just pepper sprayed him a nickname of the chancellor shadowboxer courtesy of the local media the feeling of solidarity between states has been the most how do they get to this when did it start did it begin with a man whose decision to open borders and you agree with our partners in a moment when those partners were overloaded just. on the horizon is quite easy to 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 as it makes right. there campaigning. like. yeah i'm not so into. his politics and.

actually i can tell you right now because. i think like i'm working so moderate now i'm not. i don't know anything about right now i'm not into the election right now so far but the election. in germany will be questioning if you like it's still there enjoy the summer and cast the right vote come autumn says this poster by miracle c.d.u. party which aptly symbolizes her laid back campaign style. r.t. . if you're political analyst and consultant ryan i believe the country's electorate generally doesn't take political risks. well the german is different and if you compare him to the american or to french people germans usually rather conservative they do not like experiments and they do not tend also

support political movements that are under heavy criticism so if something like they are turning to for germany or also deutsche and. you will immediately see that the political players with the help of the media will 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 moves months that are under criticism and therefore i think you cannot expect from germany a leadership in the real big challenges of our times on the back with the next round up of the stories that shake that we can thirty minutes see that.

oh i'm glad i'm here i'm going on right now with the fact that. we all willingly accepted the risk of being shot wounded taken prisoner but no signed up to be. friggin poisoned by our own people i've seen those nuclear biological and chemical products the said do not truck tires all types of styrofoam 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 there 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 waiting in decades a lot of those soldiers will die in time and they won't have to pay and. get the middle finger the movie is to model is. delayed enough to be done. right.

if you can. make me. believe it. behooves getting. rid of them you know. the i would do this in a smooth good. quality don't you know you're to walk to. the circuit do. it. all you can go. and i haven't asked. for a younger human. who you know put a finger it cannot support. units.
