supposed to mean a. lot. but. is a tourist phobia to fall into an identity. will create media claims that kim jong ordered scientists to increase their efforts to develop nuclear weapons the move comes as washington says pyongyang is quote begging for war. the. syrian army breaks islamic states three year blockade of the city of terrorism all marking a turning point in the war against terror in the country. i think germany's elections looming chancellor merkel's had a tough week on the campaign trail and even had it thrown at.

you watching the weekly here on. the north korean leader has ordered this country song to step up their efforts to further develop nuclear weapons and this is according to the country state media early this week washington's envoy to the u.n. said that he is begging for war over the previous warnings from the white house failed to dissuade the north from conducting its recent nuclear test. enough is enough i think enough is enough the stakes could not be higher the urgency is now time is short action is required our country's patience is not unlimited the policy of strategic patience is over or is never something the united states wants the united states does not think conflict only the strongest sanctions will enable us to resolve this problem through diplomacy all of our counterparts need to impose

dissensions we will defend our allies and our territory the united states is prepared to use the full range of our capabilities to defend ourselves and our allies will go to beijing proposed what has been called a double freeze initiative under that plan north korea would stop its nuclear and ballistic missile test in return the u.s. and south korea would stop their joint military exercises but the u.s. has dismissed the proposal calling it inthe old thing washington seems to see the further militarization of the korean peninsula as being the best solution says it will deploy troops weapons in addition to existing american air and naval bases aircraft carrier strike group c. anti missile ships as well as fighter jets and helicopters that all be sent to south korea as artie's juggling vigor explains war mongering could be turning into a lucrative business for the trump of ministration. the north korean threat is something we hear on a daily basis from u.s. officials with the statements warning bremer and and his nuclear threats show that

he is begging for war. they will be met with fire and fury the stakes could not be higher the urgency is now this may not get away with what he's doing believe and the urgency is so strong the u.s. is rolling out a range of american made weapons to save the day on offer for remaining rocket launchers for the u.s. missile defense system for south korea also increased amounts of highly sophisticated military equipment which trump this kindly allowing both south korea and japan to purchase and the infamously troubled after the fire fighter jets also be added to that package i think of bonus but not free of course but look forget that north korea is by no means the only threat to global security and america for decades iran has fueled the fire of sectarian conflict and threatening the region and causing so much you buy a little it's all nations of conscience must work together to isolate her and all

of those attacks are music to the ears of saudi arabia an american ally and fellow detractor of iran so of course riyadh was all too ready to sign a one hundred ten billion dollar defense deal with from neighboring qatar also agreed to buy over twenty one billion dollars worth of american military hardware now trump's approach to conflict is definitely pragmatic make a quick buck if you can right and clearly this guy can sell anything even managed to find a way to spin continuing america's sixteen year long war in afghanistan as the prime minister of afghanistan has promised we are going to participate in economic development to help defray the cost of this war to us if you can't solve the problem see if you can at least turn a healthy profit instead of i'm a businessman that's what i'm supposed to do the sort i'm supposed to do. i think a lot of people project on the behavior of the united states maybe of other

countries that it's all about business it's all about making money for the arms manufacturers and the plane manufacturers and so forth the people who make missiles the militarization of the policy of the using the military threats and military force as the only item in our tool kit his son how become so ingrained in their mentality they really don't consider other alternatives you have people who believe that the united states is and must be the global hedge of and that every solution must be solved by a dictate from washington and whatever force and threats are necessary to achieve that end will be employed. the syrian army has secured a key victory in the fight against islamic state that sounds to me broke a three year long blockade of the city of local journalist john the militant as the details. thank. syrian army units regained full control over a banner almost quaver in drones of their els over said he and the international

highway of their resort now this it cheese month come just off there were a few days of of lifting full siege of the in the city of their resort and just a few hours after they broke the siege of gaza militants on the military airport in their resort. this a chief moment also show the determination of syrian and drash and governments to educate extremism on the syrian soil some analysts and observers believe that this is would be a main turning point in the war against islam goal is to liberate all that is the initial areas that are just a few of those areas then szell aerials and districts in the hands of the extremists civilians live is going to be much easier from now on and their suffering will end. the syrian army has been advancing rapidly in recent months

take a look at our map here this was the situation in june islamic state controlling around a quarter of the country at that point me for three months but half of that territory is now being lost jane the army's advance on their resort was getting around eight kilometers a day and news that the advancing troops have finally link up with the remaining syrian forces inside the city like came as welcome relief both to soldiers and civilians. will. be the breaking of the siege of extremely significant militarily and

psychologically a tremendous boost for the mirage of the government and the government forces and we must be a bit cautious it's not clear whether it will take days or or weeks to clear out of the the the main fifty or and then be on for food can look forward to consolidating the control of the government in some pocket jihad these still. hold sway so it going at beth beth it's going to take a number of months before the syrian government really control over the whole of syria. chancellor angela merkel is at it a few days both in and out of parliament with just two weeks to go until the country's general election she's been on the campaign trail although it's not been

going all her way. i chancellor was cheered by demonstrators during a rally on thursday two days earlier a protester threw tomatoes after a similar event michel's criticize those behind such disruptions this week it wasn't just hecklers who got in the way of her speeches addressing parliament she was interrupted by her main rival from the social democrats he said she was taking credit for his party's work she didn't hesitate to remind those president who's the boss. that's with you but i think sal and very even in the finance humans. for. the eating of has. to be as. if it is the. you know side of. being maimed

that when you inspect you win points in parliament it's nice. that it was here with just two weeks to go until the country votes latest poll showed that manacles ruling christian democrats are way ahead of their main social democrat rivals left wing punky the linker is in third with the free democrats behind them as is alternative adjourn a-t. germany that's a euro skeptic party expected to gain its first seats in parliament at least correspondent peter all of it takes a closer look at who the real contenders will be in the election. with most pundits already calling this german election a win for. schultz there isn't a great deal of intrigue that. has been the battle for third place and who will perhaps become the kingmaker in the next coalition government.

as long as the guns. amount of. time. bring some scandal and controversy to the relatively calm seas of the political scene it's all to germany it looks like they will enter a pall of it for the first time following this election and they run all they called line message against refugee policy even drafted in one of the out agencies that helped promote trump in his campaign.

good alternative for germany is not going to be faulted any coalition with. likely to be part of a coalition with the mrs merkel all the free democratic. liberal pro-business they film charisma and photogenic media has appeared front and center however he does appear to have lifted so of his migration policy right out of the alternative think jodi playbook if peace prevails refugees must. such human right to choose a new place. in the world i'm not being harsh this is realism speaking aping the a.f. there may prove to be a wise move as he looks to shore up his own party's position basically this is just political maneuver to get more voters from this from this side of the spectrum f.t.p.'s at the moment constantly collecting in all kinds of fields voters for

example with all these digital subjects and now with this new statement about refugees they try to pick of course also people from if the from the right wing side the woman who has already ruled out forming a coalition with the left party the greens this time out at the lagging way behind in the polls there's even the possibility that we could see into the grand coalition with the social democrats and that's when it comes to coalition possibilities there are even some that would see angle a little cool not to be the next chancellor of germany however the most realistic options are that the free democrats will not only return to the fold to start following september the twenty bolts vote but that they will also be part of the ruling coalition peter all of our people in. russia us tice friend today after searches of moscow's diplomatic compounds will explain all after the break.

in case you're new to the game this is how it works the economy is built around corporate corporations from washington washington controls the media the media folks voters elected a businessman to run this country business equals power you must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. somehow i want to be rich.

but you're going to be for us that's what before three in the morning can't be good . i'm interested always in the waters of mexico. city. responded angrily this week to the searching of russian diplomatic compounds which have been ordered closed by washington. men searching on the roof ripping up flooring at one of the sites was posted on the russian foreign ministry facebook page f.b.i. agents checked basements and attics drawls and cupboards with moscow claiming the whole operation made no sense and washington's unexpected move has sparked outrage in moscow top russian officials described it as the seizing of property they slandered is a gross violation of international law which they said openly demonstrated

hostility towards russia would inevitably lead to a worsening of relations while u.s. state department spokesperson face the barrage of russian related questions after she referred to the searches as being a simple tour of the facilities. programs are what's your name let's move on move on to something else if you still consider that sovereign russian or were those properties searched because there was a concern that they were being used for intelligence purposes which would be like a different issue and it's not going to get into that let it let's not let's move on to something else here in russia or any other country u.s. missions that. would have been searched by the host. governments you know what i don't know if you are working for today or what but i remember. the latest development in their ongoing diplomatic spat the u.s. ordered russia to close three diplomatic premises for just forty eight hours notice after the eviction u.s. officers searched the san francisco consulate and the trade missions in new york

and washington in response president vladimir putin asked the russian foreign ministry to take legal action. against american counterparts didn't let russia use its property it's a violation of our property rights i will tell the foreign ministry to go to court we'll see how well the highly praised the dish or system in the u.s. works of washington says that it wants to end the diplomatic crisis two days after putin's remark on legal action u.s. state department had this to say. we would like that relationship to improve we don't want to continue this kind of diplomatic tit for tat people in the united states need to get over this anti russia hysteria and that's what it is that's being ginned up. by the media here and americans need to call for more friendly and constructive relations with russia it's my firm opinion that russia all along has want to friendly relations has wanted the u.s.

as a partner and there's no reason that we should reject that all of branch that i think russia has been holding out for some time on us entering that property was a violation of the vienna conventions. and i don't know where it's going to and i do get the sense from russia that they do not want to escalate. or two levels are rising on the coast of the state of florida this is a hurricane that will be hitting the u.s. mainland it's expected to pick up strength as well as it moves away from cuba ok no desire as started to move slowly for the florida keys heading north winds have been roaring at one hundred twenty miles an hour three us casualties have been reported in the national weather service says that the wind gusts have brought down a high rise construction crane in the state's biggest city miami twenty five victims of also being confirmed on devastated islands in the caribbean or.

as the florida state governor just people to leave donald trump and his cabinet bowed their head. same for the victims of the natural disaster was.

the work of time cruisers being omitted russia today the vendor's big mountain out easily to trying to took to the tracks to find out just what it's like to be in a key component of any battlefield. there's your battle ready frank quite all the training range but before i get close to it i have to test the dodgy terrain myself. you know. we don't like that living but i call those the. one of my goals is a test drive to see if a person with

a regular license like myself can get this t. a t. go in. the driver's seat is right here. here we go. in this dirt everywhere. trust me there is not much room in here. so. there is no steering turning right. but go on right now. you are running when you're running a regular. the pray for you. the other way. but.

first. let's get a little. well mylan one of the shills well obviously i didn't do that well. but at least i didn't get off track and i'll tell you what these guys got a really tough job aside from firing the cannon and three told me everyone at the base has the skills to easily drive the eighty three times faster than me but the wife would see monks move there and we agree to this so i doubt their test will i spill any water from this cup and pray as driving that tack and if he goes full throttle. i'm built by him.

old far so good. whoa whoa. i managed to keep the club almost full good job and drink i'm going to tell him about it. a little while i did the deed by the way to fill me up i would feel if i'd see into it but i leave. the train cord moscow region. should sort of. thank you stay with us as a viewing you're watching international the bat with the latest news at the top of the hour see that. i'm a trial lawyer i've spent countless hours poring through documents to tell the story

about the abuse i will. corporate media report uses to talk about the car. i'm going to paint a clear picture about how disturbing council forward has been in mob these are stories that you know we're going to. listen to my parents or your host of americans question. our culture is awash in lives dominated by streams of never ending electronic hallucinations that lurk fiction until they are indistinguishable we have become the most diluted society on politics as a species of endless and needless political theater politicians have morphed into celebrity are two ruling parties are in reality one party to corporate and those who attempt to puncture this bask breathless universe of fake news just signed to

push through the cruelty and exploitation would be a little more up for so far to the margins of society including by a public broadcasting system that has sold its soul for corporate money that we might as well be mice squeaking against an avalanche to squeak we must. you guys i made a professional is powerpoint to show you how artsy america fits into the greater media landscape is not all laughter all right but we are a solid alternative to the bullshit that we don't skew liberal or conservative and as you can see that is bar graph we don't skew the facts either the talking head

lefties talking at righties oh there you go above it all so look out world artsy americans in the spotlight now every really have no idea how to classify as and it actually took me way more time than i care to admit. what you have for breakfast yesterday why would you put those sure. why far too daunting. what you need now i did to do due to the. pile might have been tonio and this is america's lawyer to say that the justice system of the united states is broken would be a gross understatement corporations and corrupt politicians are taking control over the just judicial branch of our government entirely turning the once impartial judiciary into a tool that the elite used for political gain one of the more well known instances of politicians using the justice system to achieve their own ends for the prosecution of former alabama governor don siegelman governor siegelman was

specifically targeted by officials within the george w. bush administration because they wanted to take back the governor's office in alabama so right governor siegelman will join us to tell his story and to talk about why our justice system is in such a disaster and later in the show we'll look at how female entrepreneurs are saying enough is enough to make male investors in silicone valley actually play right where it comes to sexual harassment so don't go anywhere america's lawyer starts now. don siegelman was sworn in as governor of alabama in january nine hundred ninety nine in for the start of his term his republican opponents set out to taking down by any means necessary siegelman a democrat in a very red state drew the ire of republicans in alabama so they turned to dirty

tricks master call rove the architect behind george w. bush's entire presidency rove in the republican operatives came up with a plan to have siegelman investigated for alleged bribery after he pointed a campaign donor named richard scrushy to a position of us. hospital board and it was a position that screw she had already held under several republican governors from the very beginning it was obvious that these charges would never stick they couldn't stick but rove and his associates managed to find just the right prosecutor just the right judge and even a jury that eventually convicted siegelman and soon to prison there have been countless investigative pieces since eagleman prosecution that show call rove's involvement how the charges were trumped up how the prosecutor was working with the state republican operatives to prosecute siegelman even an even about how prosecutors made potential illegal contact with jury members during the trial

something that would get a typical prosecutor or lawyer in very serious trouble maybe even prosecuted don siegelman was targeted because republicans knew that they could use our corrupt justice system to serve their own ends and even today more and more information is coming out that points to siegelman is innocence while the people who actually committed crimes by targeting governor siegelman never once not one time saw the inside of a prison cell where they actually belong. joining me now to tell the story in his own words as former alabama governor don siegelman governor there's a new film out addict his versus the architect that tells the story of the plot against you what the new evidence does it brings forward in this film it's a whole new light that people do.
