protests erupt outside a trump rally in the u.s. state of arizona following the president's keynote of unity speech about the charlottesville violence and his change to war mode over afghanistan. at least thirty five people have been killed often asked why can't a hotel near the yemeni capital that's according to his the rebel media which actually started led coalition is behind the attack meanwhile brings you the story of a twelve year old yemeni boy deeply traumatized by the ongoing war. this

is r.t. international broadcasting to you live from moscow i'm neki erin gets have you with us this hour. now the u.n. is raising the alarm over reports that airstrikes by the u.s. led coalition have killed dozens of civilians in the syrian city of raka. yes today unconfirmed reports indicate that over thirty people were reportedly killed in the us keeney neighborhood while eight internally displaced people from the same family were killed in a separate attack in another part of the city in recent days and weeks scores of civilians have reportedly been killed or injured in iraq judah airstrikes and shelling when you first hear some of these reports it's easy to believe that they exaggerations take a recent one by the u.s. led coalition is accused of bombing a house packed with civilians killing dozens and dozens of innocents even more bodies buried under the rubble and then multiple sources begin repeating the same reports footage begins to

a much videos pictures that supports these reports and these claims one thing to know more travel to the off hospital and you know a witness and survivor testimonies anything to go by these things happen regularly that we were directly targeted by the coalition it was very clear that they were new insurgents in the area there were children playing in the streets and we were carrying water from a tap on house and civilly and homes would do great be targeted reports about the use of white phosphorus civilian areas being peppered with chemical weapons. in which we heard that the coalition used white phosphorous near iraq it was dropped by the warplanes who else could have done it it had to be the planes they were targeting a civilian neighborhood. we've contacted the u.s. led coalition are asking them to comment on some of these allegations and we got the standard response that they're taking all of this very seriously and that they

are investigating concurrently one of the defacto we leaders of the u.s. led coalition is actually in the edit be with us james mattis the u.s. secretary of defense and d.'s well optimistic. can you share any part of iraq the people in your military make for a brighter future. came the stability that will better earn. very very high prices a very high cost hardly does justice to how much iraqis have lost and sacrificed during this struggle take mosul an hour's drive from us once a city of two million now reduced to largely a wreck abandoned by its people just west of that is. well james mattis is optimistic here in that two hours drive from here he's jets a pounding and now the community tens of thousands of people a trap now in

a new war zone the iraqi military the u.s. led coalition of trying to push isis out of. the conditions there is said to be desperate food is scarce medicine and even drinking water running out of now those people are in chaos everything in our life is destroyed this is my mother she couldn't walk so i put her over my shoulder and we walk like about thirteen hours now we are here and we have nothing legit nobody left here is difficult there is no air conditioning there is no food we pay for the wrong food the transit system to salute. at the end of the day there is little doubt that isis in iraq will be defeated albeit at a tremendous cost but the u.s. led coalition and the iraqi military have demonstrated that it is a price they will let the civilians of iraq pay. list delve deeper into this story now and bring in our guest this hour as

a car of the spokes person for the international committee of the red cross for baghdad i miss our car we welcome to the program now the u.n. is reporting that the flow of refugees from the iraqi city of tal afar is only going to get was all best sources of aid on the ground to help them. if you for having me on your show this is true especially in the past few days then a week exactly the flow of the people leaving to laugh and has become has been created the people that we need either near the council or in some of the. intermediate areas are in very bad condition they are very good hydrated they are frustrated they look for a very long hours average walking is almost fifteen to twenty hours which means that you know they have to be a family behind special needs children under the. they haven't had food for more than four weeks then we have been drinking clean

water so it was very difficult for over the people who are expecting of course the soil. of the people to increase in the next couple of adulteration increases one. hour a day on the ground we just first of all we just need to remember that the left side of the area around to ask what is one more area the areas around this are almost like desert but a lot of purpose if you do situation is difficult for example as the i.c.r.c. does not stop but there is an informal setting then very close for the people who left the last one who stuck to the mean. because they need their own settlements in a blissful tender gentle at the end and that india was cuttin through mud in the people over there were very bad conditions we managed to access any and why and as it were for that didn't urgency the fight and not for the people who are going to

the camps we get as well but the people who are trapped inside the city this is going to be a very big challenge what about the people who are still trucking sites how the fall we're talking about forty thousand people who need to drinking water who need medicine i mean. is there any way to provide assistance to the people filled up. we think as i say r.c.n. other enjoy you mean maybe this one as there is there is no way for us or safe past reason or any pathogens that we can provide the aid to the people who are trapped we will be there and again but until until now and there are no safe passage for civilians to see or for aid agencies to enter. misery has lost the bathrooms or is going to dent even more and then the people who are watching will already took a risk to see many of them lend. not why being shot.

not. because it's very distant if we were both the liberation of iraq if if you've most or you recently visited the fifty yourself it true that it's now in ruins. if we don't have out west move on the old city and some of the neighborhood yes then scientists there's a lot of rubble a lot of destruction the infrastructure and the structure of the saloons wolds houses and when you just go in the car around the city you can see that most of destruction is very high and intense and of course it's very difficult for people as well as one to return because not only is the infrastructure and houses destroyed but of course there is a lot of remnants of war and there's good lives unexploded devices and. and explosives almost everywhere and will be jobs and we've met a muslim families who try to go home and it's one of the open door exposes the scum

who are kids who step. step on mine every single step you kind of take inside the old city of mosul learn some and some of the neighborhoods and must move but it's a rip it's really examining you twins and the people there is not really to majority of the people smugglers i did in i.d.p. camps tomorrow most of them are more than seven hundred thousand outside the city ninety thousand and just have returned to with them but they're living in washington destroying their houses and it's a very dangerous we're doing now enough to have a big relief and we're giving them food and i think it really isn't anything that might help them to start maybe normally the hardest not easy chair of the car away from the international committee of the red cross in iraq thank you for

your time. now the u.s. air force says it may increase as strikes on afghanistan following president trump's decision to step up the sixteen year military campaign on monday trump announced an open ended surge of troops and money to the country in a major u. turn on election promises sparks protests in arizona outside a venue where he was due to speak. police formed a barrier to prevent unrest smoke bombs and fireworks were thrown at offices hundreds came out to protest just over a week after deadly violence in charlottesville and the president's much criticized remarks on the role of hate groups in the country racial tensions have intensified in recent days which may have overshadowed trump's radical shift on afghanistan as dr lynn fuko reports the way president donald trump is portrayed you think you have

an evil leader the likes of which america has never seen shadow of moscow seems to haunt president trump the shining light of democracy has gone dark and it was the right you know if you're a speech is take a look at what some of the new year nazis are saying about his speech. even terms announcement of a new afghan strategy was skewed to supposedly show how the president was stirring up racial tension the president began his nationally televised address monday night urging americans to come together to rise above racial and ethnic divisions he wanted to speak to the nation about charlottesville and his comments he should have spoken to the nation about stroke zero and modeled it by putting it into a speech about afghanistan that's what i thought as an american but can we just get back to afghanistan for a second please the president just made a fairly hawkish decision to boost america's military presence in the country i'm familiar on my orders the united states military has begun strikes against al qaeda

terrorist training camp. 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 yet given what's at stake in afghanistan i am firmly convinced that we should make this extra effort i don't well what both previous presidents both democrat and republican chose to do so it seems hard but clearly not impossible to chalk it up as just another misstep by the big bad billionaire we will also expand authority for american armed forces to target the terrorist and criminal networks that so violence and chaos throughout afghanistan this is in tradition with all u.s. president trump is no continue in that long held tradition and if we look at u.s. foreign policy over the decades it is one long today pretty much on broken into our action or gender always regime change or military intervention is always the order

of the day and diplomacy always takes a backseat over the years afghanistan has been a massive drain on both u.s. financial and human resources and yet trump is choosing to soldier on. and all of those resources have led to little measurable success loss to the quagmire of the afghan conflict understand it's my responsibility we're not winning in afghanistan right now. this in tahrir is intended to put pressure on the taleban to have the taliban understand you will not win on the battlefield there three we may not win one but

neither will you things are going to get. worse for the people of afghanistan especially the civilians we're going to see formal casualties their country in general is going to continue to spiral out of control some of the neo con generals the retired generals a couple years ago talked about a military u.s. military presence in afghanistan for at least fifty years. i can easily see that happening because there's hardly any opposition so despite promises of making america great again it seems that washington is just going to continue to fight and this war that seems almost impossible of actually winning can go party washington d.c. . under terms new plan the u.s. is expected to send up to four thousand more troops to afghanistan with the exact number of remaining a secret america's top commander for the middle east joseph hotel says the first thing forces could arrive within weeks former u.s. congressman ron paul told us about the implications of the president's decision.

he changes the words and makes it sound like the world will come apart if we don't continue to be the world's policeman he says he's not into nation building but there was a pretense anyway how many nations that we can really build or improve we've torn nations apart so he is seen as a flip flopper which i think politically is a bad position to be. going to be perpetual war nobody knows exactly who the enemy is and nobody will know when it is ended but i think trump has been maybe a little bit more upfront that his goal isn't to get done in six months or a year it looks like he's planning to be there for the long term. he wants to increase the troop levels mean he will but we don't know exactly and we who are on the pro peace side think that he should do very very little without the

consent of the congress and yet it sounds to me like even though he wants to give away some of his authority and say well the generals are in charge the generals in charge let them make all the decisions. even if he flip flops and goes along with the neo cons which it looks like he has he's not going to win them over the people who support mccain and graham and rubio they're not going to all of them say oh yeah looks like trump is one of us now we're going to support a so i think he loses i think he loses in a political way he loses support from some of his base and he's not going to gain any support from the people who are now saying oh he looks like he's waking up and he's accepting the neo con position approach to a war we visit the small spanish town where terrorists behind the recent attacks grew up we've got that story and we'll after the break stay with us.

global blogs sell you on the idea that dropping bombs brings police to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battle to go. to socks for the tell you could be gossip the tabloids by fell. off advertising to tell you paula not to buy their product. that we all. watch. what politicians do you should. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. some want to be rich. but you want to be this is what the three of the people. interested

in the why. there should be. hello welcome back now at least thirty five people have been killed often asked strike as a hotel near yemen's capital sana that's according to the rebel media but blames the attack on saudi arabia which has regularly carried out at bombardments of the country and we are supporting the yemeni government which is fighting against the rebels we have not been able to independently verify the information but the sound of that coalition has been repeatedly accused of killing civilians in yemen or their way out denies the claims. well artie has been to visit a yemeni boy aged just twelve he's already had almost two dozen operations after falling victim to armed clashes in the country

a warning you may find the following images upsetting. hamid's father told r.t. about the heartbreaking suffering his son has already been through in his short life. roger community even a slight cough affects him badly he's a very weak his elbow has been damaged by frequent falls as you can see his neck is egypt as well these tragedies come from war the boy spent a month in intensive care before regaining consciousness he's undergone surgery many times and will need more operations who could all his injuries he's lost all his hair. have made it rarely gets

a chance to leave the hospital with his constant battle against cholera the saudi led coalition is being blamed for the widespread outbreak of the horrific disease in yemen thought to be the worst cholera epidemic ever recorded asked after the coalition cut off supplies of medicine and food to rebel controlled areas the dumbing conclusions come in a study from the queen mary university in london. someone living in rebel controlled areas is seventy percent more likely to contract cholera and fifty percent more likely to die from cholera than somebody living in government controlled areas so the internationalized government in yemen are supported by a saudi that coalition in this coalition has bombed the rebel controlled areas pretty much most of the city. and without much concern for for civilian life. they've been civilian infrastructure so we've seen hospitals destroyed schools destroyed the coalition is also enforced and naval blockade on the rebel controlled

areas this means that there are shortages of food shortage of fuel shortages of medicine all of which contributes to a situation where cholera can prosper. the sleepy spanish town every poll now lies at the center of a major investigation into last week's terrorist attacks this is where members of the terrorists behind the atrocities grew up together and were radicalized. greece investigators have identified the last rambus terrorist as eunice abuja the suspected driver of the van comes from the tyranny in town.

police searched the apartment of an inn maman recalled it said could have been a radicalizing force the way they were used to very normal life i used to see them walking to buy bread you know on. small communities and up until now we lived peacefully together but this piece has been broken. for us to believe at the moment there are twelve people in this terrorist cell. and these are the suspected members of the cell some have expressed surprise at just how young many of them were barcelona or tucker you know as up a yard for example was just twenty two years old however radicalized young men and

even teens are not a new phenomenon last year a sixteen year old syrian boy was arrested on suspicion of plotting a bomb attack in the german city of cologne a fifteen year old boy was also arrested in paris on suspicion of planning attacks in public areas and two girls aged only fourteen and fifteen years old at the time were arrested on the same suspicions and their homes were raided when our correspondent peter all of a travel to the now infamous town of ripple tomorrow you'll be able to see to be a south to us what he finds there but here's a taste of what's coming up. the interim of the mosque located in the building just behind me. is understood accused of being the mastermind behind the terror attacks he spent time in prison in twenty ten until twenty fourteen after he was charged and convicted for smuggling hasheesh it's understood

growing while he was in prison he turned to radical islam the spain attacks clearly demonstrated radicalization is getting younger but in belgium employees of one kindergarten have reported signs of islamic radicalization even among toddlers children were said to have made death threats to unbelievers calling them pegged and even displayed hand gestures imitating throat cutting its claims they've been reciting verses from the qur'an during playtime while they have reportedly skipped classes because the kindergartens vision does not fit in with their beliefs we spoke to the co-ordination director of the facility good speed who says they are even more concerned now after what's happened in spain in fact there was a leak. about an internal document made up by kindergarten leaders in the framework of an initiative to strengthen their got leaders

and to train them to recognize signs of possible radicalize ation is a very early stage with toddlers and in the aftermath of the. the barcelona attacks it's you know very about you know radicalized nation is love related terrorism or jihad isn't. but the problem could be much more widespread than previously thought across the e.u. almost five hundred cases have been found of schools with radicalization issues and political commentator david vons told is the roots of the problem go far deeper conventionally when we talk about radicalization we normally referred to i guess young man in there perhaps late teens early twenty's as we've seen for example in barcelona and we've seen the horrendous consequences in this instance what we're talking about is radicalization in the kindergarten before that we've got the

primary school there being enclosed cared of and exposed to her ific ideas you know if we are actually having kindergartens annoy centers for potential you know and calculation of jihad theology then we've got a fundamental problem. a lot of back in about thirty minutes with more news group in the meantime to get in touch and share your thoughts on the day's stories by following us on facebook and on twitter. what was it one the swiss national bank such a bank and other central banks on behalf of governments are now the biggest owners of stocks when japan is the biggest holder of exchange traded funds that's called nationalization that's socialism and combined with the central bank of poland bureau that is fixing the price of money it's not a free mug market for money they combine with the purchase of open houses and

nationalizing those assets that's pretty good communism that's nationalism that's why this job global economy is shrinking because these social banks amount to what danny blanchflower flowers says they're not operating in ways to free markets. seemed wrong but old rules just don't hold. me if you get to

shape out these days comes to educate and in the game equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. hello and welcome to crossfire where all things are considered i'm teetotal of like a bad cold you can't shake the neo-cons are back and they're back with a vengeance long associated with the extremist wing of the g.o.p. and tied to catastrophic policy failures they have now found themselves being embraced by the democrats and the liberal media it would.
