1:03 pm

1:04 pm
islamic state that these are the types of attacks with like it's or expect it before coming here and it looks as though who is this group has inspired many individuals and then you compare this to spain where clearly there was you know around ten or twelve people working together to be interesting to see what will come out from this one outside but impossible as it's a bit working on their own or do they have some form of assistance it's quite sad i think you know there was an attack your friend and as well last week there was suspected to be a terrorist incident i mean looking at philip i mean one people asking why for the people also asking why spain. if you look at a group like the ash they have they don't recognize any j. graphical boundaries if you're not with them you're against them because their philosophy is it doesn't matter whether you're a christian or a muslim or a jew it doesn't matter which ethnicity or as regards your nationalism if you're

1:06 pm
different people and has allowed those freedoms it is sad to see that people are now no longer surprised i mean this was a lesser attack nobody was killed no mass casualty or massive billion casualties which is a more positive step but again this is a lot of backtracking they're having to go against major national you are european union policies which state that you know they shouldn't do much they shouldn't look at religion they should look at other things and they certainly shouldn't police the streets for things like this but we're going you live pictures from boston alone and now where thousands of people are gathering in defiance of terror with the message i'm not afraid. taking a stand against the deadly violence that left fifteen people dead and one hundred twenty others injured live pictures here we're showing you of the march which is being led by those who helped the wounded as the tragedy unfolded islamic states claimed it was responsible for the acts of terror in barcelona and the nearby

poland is demanding millions of euros in reparations for its losses during the second world war as the country continues to struggle against its european neighbors over multiple sticking points. in fact it could be said that poland is demanding justice because we are a victim of the second world war the damage was not repaired anyway just the opposite today talking about her pray stance is a claim for justice and for what belongs to poland. the majority of poles support the idea of germany paying war damages sixty three percent want compensation from berlin wall others disagree or unsure about it however this isn't the only issue proving to be a stumbling block for poland and its european partners opponent has long been critical of the e.u.'s migration strategy this week the pollution syria minister blasted brussels policies saying that accepting so many migrants into europe is
1:14 pm
affectively putting a noose around the continent's neck meantime poland has requested the european commission with draw a legal proceedings against warsaw of its refusal to adopt mandatory migrant quotas or poland is not the only e.u. country to fail to meet its obligation in taking in migrants is joined by the czech republic and hungary warsaw was expected to take in seven thousand refugees but so far as you can see it's taken zero presence foreign minister has defended his country's position after the french president said warsaw is isolating itself. i think that statements are another error in the strategy of the country and the minister of how this country wants to position itself on the margins of europe's history recent present and future the state just today isolate itself in the functioning progress. and is not isolating it so easily and has not been isolated
1:15 pm
because it seems to me that president mass growing carelessly polish media reports doesn't know what's going on in all parts of europe is too it happens sometimes. journalist and eastern europe expert martin summit says that poland's defiance against the e.u. policies well cause problems for the block. poland's a big country and a major player. and of course if the no in cheating with the. european partners there's going to be problems further down the line of course the isolation themselves from the big players in the european union specifically the journals in the french of course they resent they feel as if they talked about the germans and the french and so on they're very skeptical of the policies being pursued boy european union of moderation for example but of course the opinions got lots of other problems to resolve you know. the poles may dislike the european union but they get an awful lot of money from them and if they leave the bloc then the money

from somewhere else. germany has been the website of radical left wing activists the reason behind that after the break. hillary would like to erase the past because it's an inconvenient truth that she was a horrible candidate and made
1:17 pm
a lot of mistakes so in an attempt to erase her she wants to erase america's past so she's galvanizing and supporting the last time i saw some of the american political spectrum. hello welcome back now the german government has banned or radical left wing website blamed for inciting violence during the g twenty protests and how this summer a raid on the homes of activists behind the science and cuts knives and batons our europe correspondent peter all of that has the details. last month's g twenty and how violent unexpected and ferocious scale for the times seemed to catch
1:18 pm
german security services surprise. that. far as i can tell and i'm from. i've never seen. the autopsy and why those violent scenes were able to happen so the interior minister here in germany decided to close the website links saying it had been instrumental in organizing the violent scenes that marred the g twenty summit it's as model of first of all it is about a ban of the associations not a news outlet from now on the operation of the site with immediate effect
1:19 pm
a crime even continues its operation then there will be reason to press charges that will surely follow starting from today. the web site was used to organize attacks on security services as world leaders mixed at the big get together but finding out just the website was based has proved harder that it may first seem we understand it some two hundred fifty officers were involved in searching five properties in the area around the city of freiburg as they try to find out the source of where the website was coming from the operation uncovered numerous weapons raging from. tons to pursue slingshots all things that could be used to cause real damage if in the wrong hands which all begs the. question is this now the new normal when politically active groups such as the far involved should we expect the violent scenes we saw in hamburg to follow closely behind peter all
1:20 pm
of germany. french police say they're finding it difficult to fulfill their duties during the country's lengthy states of emergency and that's because of poor working conditions while officers union even held a photo competition to draw attention to the problem from rats and cockroaches to leaky pipes and damaged equipment the photos show the shocking state of police stations across france in many cases it is apparent that even basic equipment has become unfits figures over one hundred fifty photos have already been submitted by officers who say their job now lacks dignity. i didn't expect to see such a destructive voters from across france i was aware that what you conditions needed improvement but i honestly did not expect to see a car which had done five hundred thousand kilometers flooded with water that
1:21 pm
happened in toulouse vehicles are no longer for what we now regard is terrorist measures there is a police station which is literally falling into the ground the soil is crumbling beneath it no i didn't expect to see such things. apart from the terry rating working conditions french police are also worried that they may not be able to cope with a day of strike action and marches over labor reforms which is scheduled for next month. was. i. was i i i i i i i. i. i.
1:22 pm
was. tortured a lot were like to draw the interior minister's attention or the deteriorating working conditions of the french police would also like to inform i was citizens that we cannot carry out our public mission correctly given the fact that we are in the state of emergency now and facing a terrorist threat over the last fifteen years instead of organizing large scale negotiations on security issues our government has limited its budget and implemented small measures the police force in france has been sick for dozens of years and we're not being given any means to change that since the beginning of twenty seventeen two of my colleagues have been burnt alive these tragedies haven't stopped some of my colleagues have been shot by terrorists every day we face violence. a un committee has warned that a deep racial conflict is brewing in the us there follows the clashes in
1:23 pm
charlottesville and the widespread protests that followed but we're reporting on a social rift between the left and the right the mainstream media in america might be guilty of a bit of a exaggeration as caleb moore pins been finding out. every day you can hear from politicians and mainstream media that 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 are have to stand up there and just stand 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 hysteria and the absurdity of some of the claims on the left and you look at how both camps look at most major political themes you'll see that there's not much of a division there. my
1:24 pm
position and i think it coincides with the basic broad. left position real really left position in the united states is that all us intervention abroad is wrong. we should focus on our home front. there's clearly an agenda by the military industrial complex which is operating soley for profit with a giant profit motive to in my opinion destabilize this part of the world like comes to ties between big business and us politics both sides find it just as troubling. to have suggested that politicians should walk around like nascar drivers and have
1:25 pm
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 didn't 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 political system completely and allow the average person to run and give them 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. what about mainstream voices this t p p says the gold standard in trade agreements to open free transparent fair trade t p p this twelve pacific nations that's forty
1:26 pm
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 in the right but between a stablish with 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 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 room collapsed it's a totally corrupted system at this point. and it's because we have this first amendment that the supreme courts 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. well those are the headlines for this hour i'll be back in about thirty minutes with the latest in the meantime have your say on the day's stories
