1:01 am
inspiration from russia they do however admit there is no proof to back their claim . plus. human rights groups say the u. case aid to deal with libya is a means of preventing refugees from fleeing. this morning the twenty fifth of august money this is the international first then this thirty minute news wrap. of bombs the iraqi city of mosul has been almost leveled as you saw in the headlines there the u.s. led operation to liberate that city from eisel has been declared a success but the human cost is inconceivable it was once home to around two million people now than it was in mosul to witness the aftermath a word of warning you may find some of the content of his rip. coming up upsetting
1:02 am
they kept this up for a needy ten months. u.s. led coalition and the rockies one but you can still smell the ashes this probably won't shock you the destruction in mosul a city in ruins it's already been shown you've probably also heard about the thousands killed the civilian suffering what you will likely haven't heard of is the smell it's noisy eating repulsive and it's everywhere the sort of smell that makes us in stink these sick the smell of rotting bodies. the sickly odor permeates near the entirety of the old city under the rubble hundreds and hundreds of corpses jihad ists as well as civilians families
1:03 am
this is what rescuers have collected just this morning three suspected isis fighters two women and two children this is again just the first few hours of this morning from buildings right around us and they're still not done alone most of them are women and children they called this a victory you would never think the smell of victory would make you rich. thirty. five. the market even the collection think that what it was. it describable this is what they do day long and they got out to see it was not the time.
1:04 am
it's hard work in more ways than one there are booby traps and exploded jet bombs rockets shells and munitions and the bodies decomposing in the sweltering heat. there was no precision here these was carpet bombing annihilation hundreds buried under rubble hundreds blocks in basements starving or choking to death it will take months to dig up all the bodies months more of trauma. what i see here makes me cry you can bring anyone here and they will break down in tears because we are all human beings are him was and judy there are some things he couldn't sail camera like the fact that he and many rescuers have trouble sleeping after all the scene and no wonder it is after all a city of corpses more of guys d.
1:05 am
1:06 am
it took centuries and centuries to build it in what one of the sort of so-called not so smart bombs would destroy in few seconds i don't think it would be rebuilt ever as it was a means of people's memory people's culture or people's livelihood. to a. was. i don't think actually the american led coalition and the iraqi government had any excuse. if we see god forbid the devastation that had before. would repeat itself and that would be really crime that would be criminal. with the
1:07 am
operation of mosul over them the coalition has now shifted its focus to the nearby city of tal afar which is also held by i still on the two operations best striking similarities to both cities with key eisel strongholds besieged by u.s. forces just like mosul thousands of civilians are trapped in telephone under a barrage of bombs now humanitarian organizations are warning that that city may face the same devastation as witnessed in mosul. that we were in from the shelling from the commission will lift the people from islamic state i love. our children a sick we're stranded here without say there is no fresh water anymore some of the aid workers have been here but very few of them this is my son he is suffering we have no electricity on. us media is busy trying to find out
1:08 am
who's inspiring the divided sides in american society these days it seems so now a new article in the washington post suggests that the far right is guided by russian interference media analysts lionel shared his thoughts with us. russia is used to being blamed for all things sinister in this world if it's not hacking someone that it's being labeled authoritarian or just flat out criminals but few have stooped to suggest russia backs nazis until now the washington post claiming the nation that lost more than twenty seven million people fighting fascist germany with every family losing loved ones is a source of inspiration for america's neo nazis now you'd hope such offensive claims would be backed up by undeniable facts but sadly you'd be wrong the article kicks off with a couple of flashy quotes one from a former k.k.k. imperial wizard who calls moscow a key to white survival and then a white supremacist richard spencer for whom the kremlin stands as the most powerful white power in the world which yes sounds bad but these men will use
1:09 am
anything to promote their agenda so how is that russia's fault when white nationalists claim inspiration in america's founding fathers as they do does that suddenly make george washington a nutty sympathizer and what about souter after all he's white and powerful too and we're sponsored they found a way to drag our tea into it as well in twenty fifteen some petersburg hosted one of the most outspoken gatherings of idealogues europe has seen and while spencer yes did appear on r t the post gives the fact that after his hail trump salute he became persona non grata here and was never invited again unlike the us media. and that's not all wait until you hear what other nazi crimes russia has committed spends his one does geo political analysts on kremlin funded outposts so just see and sputnik now it seems a shame to ruin the papers theories but the event was not state sponsored it was
1:10 am
organized by one party not even the russian parliament with white nationalist gathering in charlottesville just a few weeks ago does that suddenly make the state of virginia a safe haven for nazis no war but sure one right wing form in the country obviously mean russian evil knows no bounds and after all no one else has hosted such an event. well we love our race how motivation comes from the hearts. so you know american black walked into this room personally more to all of us than any of us is to each other well we're in the dark now so let's keep doing what else you got washington post kremlin mouthpieces have infuse us tickly promoted the views of american neo nazis and white nationalists what is that even based on what listen to the actual words spoken by the russian president on the issue of those who say
1:11 am
russia is for white russians only are either bad people or just outright morons or provocateurs plain and simple because russia is a multinational state sounds like a nazi leader to you and i save the best for last the article even ties in the recent tragic events in charlottesville none of this is to say that the carnage insurance bill is directly attributable to moscow we have not yet evidence the mystic terrorist is spelled prove true kremlin views so why stop there if actual proof is unnecessary you also don't have evidence that he likes to watch disney cartoons but he probably does and most of the heroes are white but really who needs proof when it comes to blindly attacking russia these days. r.t. washington d.c. exactly not lionel will tell you but that in a minute the mainstream media go even further suggesting that russian intelligence is using hate groups to escalate the situation inside the us but despite all the conclusions the article admits there is no evidence that russia is supporting american extreme right groups media analyst lionel yes venture here is shared his
1:12 am
thoughts with us. russia is the hotbed of or the preferred country of neo nazis it's absurd first neo nazis are looking to russia neo nazis did they ever hear about this thing called world war two they understand how historically that doesn't seem to make any sense if you ever meet a neo nazi all you have to do is ask. said nazi explain not cism to me and they can't answer it and the reason why many of them can answer is that the nazis that we saw in charlottesville were basically actors that were handed a swag bag here you're going to slice the guy you get an iron cross and you were given twenty bucks a bus fare in a box lunch and today you're a nazi americans number one do not understand who these people are. well as to the
1:13 am
bogeyman of the us mainstream media the deep social risk for tween the left and the right might be a bit exaggerated discolored mopin explains every day you can hear from politicians and mainstream media but the usa is now a battlefield between the left and the right on usual intense polarization among the population and in the political arena. oh dear you quote from supporters racists yes you stand up to the nazis shows that you are racists on. the ground with what about the all to left do they have any semblance of guilt the emerging racist ideology known as the all to write the hysteria and the absurdity of some of the claims on the left them however if you look at the major divisions which are currently playing america you'll notice it's not really the old left vs the all right when you look at how both
1:14 am
camps look at most major political themes you'll see that there's not much of a division there. it's hard to find much division here my position and i think it coincides with the basic broad. left position real really left position in the united states is that all u.s. intervention abroad is wrong we should focus on our home front we should focus on uniting our country. when it comes to ties between big. is this and us politics both sides find it just as troubling people who have suggested that politicians should walk around like nascar drivers and have all their sponsors pasted on their suits is a great one because if they did that they'd just be multi-colored people with all the emblems of these corporations that bought them most of the members of congress are millionaires and they did were millionaires when they were elected which tells you a lot money talks in america and frankly we need to strip money i think out of the
1:15 am
political system completely and allow the average person to run and give an equal chance. the so called left and right both have a distaste for the international monetary fund the world bank and treaties which have hurt the u.s. economy but what about mainstream voices this t p p says the gold standard in trade agreements to open free transparent fair trade t p p that's twelve pacific nations that's forty percent of the world's g.d.p. so we need to get in and write the standards so that we are writing the rule book for the global economy for the twenty first century looks like the real gap these days isn't really between the left and the right but between establishment voices and mainstream media and those who challenge their narrative there's been leftist commentary that's come out from. organizations like the huffington post were there
1:16 am
suggesting well you know rome used to remove statues leader would die and they desecrate the statues remove them build new ones remove them build new ones remove them build new ones we'll guess one rome collapsed it's a totally corrupted system at this point. and it's because we have this first amendment that the supreme court have said means that rich people can spend as much money as they want to buy the elections and that's exactly what they're doing. coming up a lot including rights groups accuse the u.k. of using aid to prevent refugees fleeing from war from the war zone in libya just one of the stories ahead.
1:17 am
1:18 am
again rights groups are accusing the u.k. of using aid to libya as a means of preventing refugees from leaving out war torn country now libya has been spending a large amount of money of course on aid of late britain's foreign secretary porus johnson pledged millions of pounds to stem the flow of illegal migrants from libya to europe he also voiced support for tougher border controls to speaking in tripoli said the crisis poses a direct threat security threat no less to the u.k. libya is the front line for many challenges which left unchecked composed problems for us in the u.k. but equally illegal migration and the threat from terrorism it also means practical efforts to including the work we're doing to ensure that the libyan coast guard can secure their own borders reducing the number of illegal migrants heading for europe one campaign manager oxfam believes attempts to keep refugees in a war zone are a violation of the human rights. simply throwing money at at the issue will not be
1:19 am
enough what is required is a long sustained investment and the opportunity for people to be safe and protected both now and in the future what we've been really disappointed with is the fact that this just flies in the face of international conventions it is in the refugee convention which all the european countries have signed up to that people are allowed to seek asylum on their shores and they have really abandoned that that's an incredibly dangerous signal out to the rest of the world is the responsibility of these countries and wealthy countries all over the world to step up and actually take in more refugees right now some of the poorest countries in the world a host of the most and yet somehow europe the richest country in the world the twenty eight countries step up and even in something similar to that on his visit to tripoli and pledged to ukraine's continued support for the libyan coast guard service it's been trained by the british royal navy despite the coast guard has been receiving support from several other countries as well it's been repeatedly accused of killing and abusing migrants as well as attacking aid workers or firms
1:20 am
who want to turn campaign manager again says the support is part of an attempt to close european borders the u.k. and the european union have for the last couple of years made a concerted effort to shut down borders and we see that happening at an extreme cost to the individuals who are fleeing war and persecution and poverty is part of that for them it's simply a matter of shutting it down on paper they say that they're trying to explore other options and open up safe safe routes to people but we really just not seeing that happen or we've seen as a shutting down of rates which is left people with really few other options then to take risky very. desperate migrants continue to try and reach europe e.u. politicians have come up with a plan than to cope with the already established threats of terrorism on the continent the president of the european parliament says he wants to establish an f.b.i. type organization within the block to fight against terror he emphasized but member states must cooperate much more to we spoke to any marshal who worked for the
1:21 am
british intelligence service and became a whistleblower twenty years ago she believes the rhetoric is just another vanity project which won't work. so it's distrust between intelligence agencies they want to keep their sources close to their chest and there are different approaches to how intelligence agencies work to the powers within each country about what precisely those intelligence agencies can actually do legally within their own country so trying to find common stand it i think is going to be incredibly difficult across the e.u. i mean we're looking at countries going from island right across to poland hungary a fast spread of territory it's a vast spread of history and it's a vast spread of different legal systems i can't see how this can work it sounds like another event project. in new york police association is claiming the existence of a new type of racism they say the discrimination is not against national minorities but instead against police officers themselves the average person doesn't see those
1:22 am
things. when they look at me they see blue because i am blue increasingly i'm vilified well that clip sparked an outburst of criticism on social networks some said the officers have chosen the professional should simply get on and deal with it others those said the police were trying to justify the violence against civilians in the u.s. but the creators of the video say something else they say it's to highlight the bias that the police face the purpose of the video was to highlight blue racism and get people to understand that we too feel this bias no different from the people who've been affected by it for many years last month hundred rallied in the us state of minnesota after a police officer was acquitted of killing a black man more than one hundred black people have been killed by the police in the u.s. so far this year former new york police department executive cory pegasus comments on the issue. that overwhelming majority of police officers ago are now every single day and doing a great job but what happens in police does give you example when
1:23 am
a doctor kills somebody nobody hates all the doctors but when one police officer killer or non man leaves it's black white or whatever it is that reverberated throughout the country with people who have a dislike for the police so the onus is on the police officers to be very very careful when they've gone out to do their job every single day and i don't believe that cops come to work and say they want to kill anybody but situations are happening all too often now and maybe was happening in the past but now we have video cameras and cell phones that's exposing a lot of stuff that's happened in policing and so police need to tread lightly be more transparent and also i need them to be safe and get home to their families like everybody else. china and russia are hoping to clip the wings of aircraft giants airbus and boeing by teaming up to build a new jumbo jet the wide bodied aircraft a set of range of twelve thousand kilometers and be able to carry up to two hundred
1:24 am
eighty passengers is planned to into service in the twenty twenty seven the joint projects currently in a full scale development phase to the russian chinese companies charge of developing new airline is already enjoyed success on a smaller scale and the technology developed they say will help with the jumbo jet project no it's all come just a few months after the first ever chinese built passenger airliner took to the skies and not been finding out what it's like to operate one that. every plane in the skies has a shadow version on the ground literally behind me is the scene nine one one i remembered a place where technicians and engineers can test out different systems and conduct stabilization experiments which explains this noise we're hearing in the background and it also contains a flight simulator which i'm quite excited to check out myself television. so we can actually see the runway here right in front of there actually looks like the ok while actually quite scary. whoa whoa whoa
1:25 am
so what do i do first in the list is the control stick of the plane you can make the plane go up i'm good. ok we're going to get started. ok it's moving it's moving we're moving it's getting faster. lift you can see the speed of the plane so when it reaches one hundred twenty kilometers of her own you can control steep bank. so when it reaches one twenty we're going to take off ok one twenty to go pick up oh we're fighting. that we're going oh oh oh. there's actually seem like i'm looking at like. a bird's eye view this is what the city looks like so i can turn left and right and it feels quite different whoever's on my plane will be very very angry with me. just basically the pain just like the ground is not about speed. that it. looks like we're
1:26 am
slowly ascending slowly ascending. yes because. no crash. and the simulator it was so cool it's if it had to be able to pilot it thank you so much for showing me. at least two total pro. of a good friday and a reminder all programs continue right after this. lol make this manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the famous.

1:28 am
of the politicking on larry king on aug eighteenth the controversial steve benen left his position as white house chief strategist for president donald trump. he said he resigned others say he was forced out by chief of staff general john kelly hours after leaving the president's team is to ban and announce that he was returning to the helm of breitbart news as his executive chairman and promised war against the president's opponents so after nearly a week back at his former job what's happening behind the scenes there and what changes if any are planned for the controversial new site for that we turn to joe pollock he's senior editor at large and in-house counsel at breitbart news he's also co-author of how trump won the inside story of a revolution joins me on set here in los angeles what's it like having him back
1:29 am
it's great fantastic he's very excited as are we i think is going to take the company to new places and i think there are great expectations now what we can achieve did you know before the announcement that he was coming no he not he just showed up friday afternoon so you had no idea he was leaving no well there are lots of stories in the media speculating about it there had been speculation for months but most of the stories had fallen flat so there was no real sense that this was him and what suits him better white house chief strategist or running breitbart news. that's a great question i think he was very good as chief strategist i think that he gave coherence to the trump agenda i think he represented the base he represented the ideas in which trump was elected so as a voter i'm happier with him as chief strategist in the white house but as a consumer of media and as a journalist i'm happier with him at breitbart because i think his.
