americans do the same we are apparently better than blue. sea people you've never heard of love back to the night my president of the world bank though kate was really pretty seriously send us an e-mail. for islamic states as the syrian army liberates the city of dean one of the terror groups last strongholds in the east of that country plus as we review the weeks previous stories to. the syrian army continues to repair lysol from. our correspondent follows the troops as they free yet another village from the terrorists. and now the big news in the week those failed expectations and more uncertainty to come for spain as catalonia as president gives ambiguous signals about the region's independence and madrid now orders him to clarify whether or not he's actually pretty claimed that

independence plus. donald trump threats to pull out of the a nuclear deal it's angered european allies who insist is complying with the. sun to the fifteenth of october i'm kevin owen you're at r.t. h.q. today with news review of the week i'm starting with this syrian government troops have liberated the eastern city of my deen from islamic state it's the latest blow them to the terror group which is now being steadily pushed from that war torn country. i i. i.

i. just. this. the best. age victory comes at a high human cost the terrorists are fighting fiercely to retain their last strongholds in the region and that's where the village of suffered this last week on its way to being liberated for the troops as they moved into that particular village. under a bright blue sky through devastated country across the euphrates over the only bridge in the entire province we came to the village of had less than

a day ago this was part of the caliphate but no longer from what we were told the syrian army's fifth division did the heavy lifting here much of had has already been swept and cleared but not all it isn't like the movies doors rarely open at the first keek. then came the first warning my. brother would go to let me know. he was right it wasn't one of theirs. isis back up had arrived reinforced the jihad ists felt confident enough to pick a fight and we weren't in a good place the syrian army responded quickly but there was some confusion at

first. they develop. their own already. five hundred meters from the. village isis is making it still. doesn't it dug in. like that house over there. to. try to be harassing syrian troops what they're doing is they're driving around in circles using speed and distance as their protection taking potshots the other things hiding behind a house driving out firing for a little bit and then hiding back before the syrian. with heavier weapons it isn't going to get the game very much but it's a harassing kick in keeping everyone on

a jury in the fierce firefight one of the pickup trucks stopped here is one of the jihad ists briefly showing himself while spraying away on full otoh with a clear target out came the heavy of weapons. it was a miss try again. the scrap isis lost but everything you just saw was shot within the span of a single hour in one village with a small unit these scenes being repeated hourly across the front hundreds of kilometers wide more i guess d. of. from had syria. the catalan president

suspended a declaration of independence and called for dialogue with madrid the move then prompted the spanish prime minister to demand clarification on whether or not independence and actually officially been declared. not potluck at all and we asked for a mandate to declare catalonia an independent state was he a responsible with all due respect i asked parliament to suspend the declaration of independence so that in the coming weeks we can undertake a dialogue but a good year for the moment we formally require the catalan government to confirm if it has declared independence of catalonia after the deliberate confusion created over whether it has come into effect. meantime people in catalonia have been there for straight and by the confusion many were visibly affected while listening to the president's announcement and deeply disappointed at the end madrid has given the cattle and president now till monday tomorrow to clarify the situation adding that

he's got three days after that to drop the declaration if it is made covering all this in barcelona for us across the weekend and into next week and this is it can. it was was you could see what it does it was through their reach it was. it is necessary to show rebellion i did not know it and dependence is the solution which as a demonstrates this half of the population is tied up with this independence will hurt both spade and catalonia it took many years to make the country whole and to divide it just like that is absurd this particular square there screams being set up where no doubt this area is going to be cut by people in the hours to come preparing to listen to this crucial belief the problem is right there and we do know that because that leaders in their meeting with parliamentarians in the head

of the preparation of what's going to happen and people here despite this being a pro independence gathering really there is no certainty as of right now what exactly he's going to say was. that the super. bowl was. i. think a layman in so i think he should have declared independence because now he says he wants done like the good morning and has asked the spanish government like seventeen times and every time the doors have been closed so i believe today he would finally declare rates and i'm a bit disappointed that he stated he didn't take the step forward that everybody wanted we understand he wants that but catalonia have spoken and we did want to

independents but you're only not in here i want to dependence i don't want anything to do with this. jane and sisters wanted it forced to be spanish only if i ever can say that my nationality is catalan i'll be very happy that i know where the iconic sensual must clarify subsequent to libya right now and thousands of people if you can be covered by actions from that direction towards this square this is that you can see how that all of these people are coming out to speak in support of the things that's loaded with a president. who really has by only to the law you should assume because it was it was with thank you i could hear.

collusion between new york times and you tube was revealed earlier this week in an online sting by the project veritas group which has gained a reputation for uncovering uncomfortable truths in the media of late is some of the latest on the cover video the very rare cases though. try to make up for the fact that something isn't in the front. that was believed to be ernest petty according to his linked in profile he is brandon diversity curation lead in a video with an elaborate somehow you tube sometimes intervenes to change trending videos are very real. but in those cases you use some human intervention make sure that. you. encourage the thing to be basically they provide in some cases ninety percent of what a lot of people receive as knows it's just not you two or you think of a picture of a doc playing the piano this is the pipeline of new and if somebody can affect what

news makes that pipe like you have in essence and effectively affected the the transportation to and the transmission of data all over the world turns out to the manager was the only person exposed in the project veritas video it also features a guy called nicholas dudek he's an audience strategy editor for the new york times who also is thought to be a friend of petty's dudek claims that he previously worked on the election campaigns indeed of both hillary clinton and barack obama now next he's on camera saying he benefits from his relationship with you tube stuff and he calls himself a gate keeper for the new york times deciding what gets coverage and what doesn't. people charter schools like this is something of a need to front page like your teachers out about it we don't know it's just because my friend security probably right as i. did so i can see what those are that's like let's create something nice i take it we've got you just

a few i think i. was i knew you were this we got in touch with you tube for reaction it didn't get back to us as of yet we did hear about the new york times though i can tell you about that in a statement the newspaper admitted dudek the parent leave violated his ethics standards it also says he exaggerated the influence he had at the company now the communications director of project veritas believes so called gate keeping in the media is a huge concern. certain political entities certain media entities rise to the top of the pecking order there is collusion between the social media networks and the major media outlets what we did was we caught it we caught them admitting it would caught them being candid on undercover video admitting what most people want most americans and what most people around the world strongly suspect was the case anyway but just couldn't prove we've just proved that. mr

dudek koos kind of the star of these first two videos were pretty clear about having worked for two presidential campaigns and wanted to continue his mission working for the new york times lots of interesting is in the new york times statement they didn't rebut the accuracy of what we said we kind of suspected that if they well here's a low level guy but they did they said he's a junior player but they didn't rebut the accuracy of what we put out they're just making excuses for. one of the worst the seats the mainstream media does an album major social media does is gate keeping it's their role it's not necessary it's stopping or suppressing story lines that they don't want to hear or don't want you to hear they've got to billeted to do a lot more than they used to in the start up days of the internet and we're in new york and new york times and you tube are in bed the bastard child of that relationship is fake news and bad week for facebook to left red faced last monday

after a p.r. stunt by paul smug zuck a book tended to a public relations disaster. in the same place that will make money on how to revive the g.o.p. and i find it a guy thing we can really. if you like or hear me yet any of this treaty to keep what you assume this is ok this is what it looks waiting for you to feel like. yeah all right so you want you to get to a place somewhere else yeah maybe back to california.

q illegal. thank. you for. much more of our news review of the week to come including donald trump of course threatening to pull the rug from under a radian nuclear deal this last week infuriating emperor involved in it his reasons and the reaction next on the weekly.

low blow hard selling you on the idea that dropping bombs brings peace to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles of big stone and. the new socks credit tell you that celebrity gossip and tabloid bias files of the most important news today. the hottest of advertising tell me you are not cool enough to buy their product. all the hawks that we along with our audience will watch. it.

i guess the historic nuclear agreement with iran is in jeopardy this really kicked off last friday after president trump announced that he wouldn't certified to run is compliance with the deal a start could go it alone move maybe it's defied his administration and america's allies it's also despite the global watchdog saying in fact iran has on its end of the bargain we cannot and will not make this certification a red is not living up to the spirit of the deal this deal was hammered out under the obama administration in twenty fifteen along with russia france the u.k. china germany and iran it followed nine years of talks and

a decade long standoff which many viewed at the time as one of the world's most pressing crises now the u.s. secretary of state's been trying to rally european allies over times decision but so far they've mostly reacted angrily. are all over it in europe or the region or the reverse order the president of united states as many posts not this one it is not a bilateral agreement it does not belong to any single country and it is not up to any single country to terminate it we cannot afford as international community as europe for sure to dismantle and nuclear agreement that is working and delivering especially now this is a difficult and in our view dangerous signal and the agreement with iran has shown for the first time that it's possible to prevent all through negotiations of the destruction of this agreement would mean that others around the world no longer rely on such treaties it's therefore a danger that goes far beyond iran and we in europe germany france the u.k.

and the e.u. we stand by this agreement with iran we want to preserve the agreement. after trump's announcement the deal is now than in the hands of u.s. congress which has sixty days to decide whether or not to reimpose sanctions against iran if they do that it will effectively end the agreement there's another scenario to that's to come up with new legislation maybe to try and amend the agreement but again it's highly unlikely that the parties will agree to the new conditions the third option is simply for the president to bypass congress and terminate it with an executive order if a train kid next then takes a look at why i might want to quit this huge deal so donald trump has got a problem with what's known as iran's nuclear deal ok his not a fan of iran in the first place he's confident it's still a nest for terrorists but is that a good enough reason to basically throw the compromise agreement that required so much diplomatic effort to the floor i mean when it comes to sticking to the deal

terms the world agrees to iran is behaving so why the assumption the deals in jeopardy because of washington the house foreign affairs committee chairman explains the tehran regime clearly sees itself as a movement one that uses ideology and violence to destabilize its neighbors to threaten others just for the record that was an american official talking about someone else promoting ideology and views using violence in other countries to get what they want isn't that a u.s. thing like the golden rule of their foreign policy that we've seen in action so many times by acting now we are all polling our values protecting our interests and advancing the cause of peace we will secure our nation protect our freedom and help others to find freedom of their run the burdens of leadership are often heavy. but

the world's a better place because we have borne them what a historic background looks like mr royce might as well replace the words to iran regime with the names of american presidents they were the ones who love promoting ideology i.e. democracy elsewhere yeah interventions are exactly what i'm talking about.

next a story developing right now voting is underway right now in austria not parliamentary election in which three parties are joking for position and the chance to install the next chancellor with the refugee crisis having dominated much of the campaign the biggest parties have been trying to woo voters by shifting to the right. situation across europe throughout most of this year with populist parties have seen some success and he's pulled a slave reports next them from vienna. i . say review and if you think. yes this is an act. of.

the past people's property is one. actually expected to come in first with more than fifty percent of the votes it is running on a platform of being tough on immigration which dovetails with the program being presented by a right wing u.s. skeptic party known as the freedom party that is also being touted as a party that will come in second with around twenty five percent of the vote speaking to experts here it certainly does seem a possibility that the two parties could form a coalition although having said that the freedom party is accusing sebastian coe peoples party of stealing some of its proposals. nobody is coming into the country without registration without a passport no one should be allowed to enter austria i will do everything possible to stop illegal immigration so i am asking that social benefits for non austrians be significantly reduced. we'll do everything we can to end the abuse of our social welfare system by immigrants and this election certainly reflects every ality on

the ground that voters are turning more white here in austria and the reasons are numerous there is high unemployment there is a lack of economic growth and there is fears of migration the current government certainly appears not to have addressed these issues and we could have a situation in which the ruling party finds itself pushed into the opposition on saturday the austrian chancellor warned against choosing a rightwing alliance he said that the country finds itself at one of the most important crossroads in decades despite that however it does seem highly likely that all schools could be on the road to forming a right wing government. on first day of the us announced it was withdrawing from unesco the un's educational scientific and cultural organization the main reasons for the withdrawal cited by the state department are concerns over mounting u.s. arrears the need for fundamental reform and unesco's alleged israel bias the us

still owes almost five hundred fifty million dollars to the organization is five times more than all the other member states combined when pressed on whether america would pay up the state department dodge the issue. is it fair to say that it's discouraged this ration is no longer trying to find a way to work around. a rational vision on funding well i think we've made our determination and that is to pull out of us though this time around so in other words they're never going to get their money unless that you and less and less they will form and you rejoin. that ok well meantime israel also followed america's step promised have been you know who announced that they were quitting unesco's well he called the u.s. move a brave and moral decision because you know sco has become quote a theater of the absurd he said he also voiced concern that instead of preserving history the organization distorts it in the background here in twenty sixteen israel suspended cooperation with unesco offered adopted resolutions which ignored

jewish ties to a key holy site in jerusalem the resolutions also criticize israeli policies as holy places in jerusalem and in the west bank but this goes back all the way to twenty eleven in congress withheld funding for your nasco because you nasco allowed the palestinian authority membership and congress is very very easily influenced by the pro israel lobby whereas traditionally the state department and the u.s. mission at the u.n. have not been so this is the first time we've really seen the state department kind of get in line with the congressional elements that are funded by pro the pro israel lobby and easily influenced by it and i think this really reflects the weakness of the trumpet ministration. that's the way the main news stories looked at least over the last seven months about international i'm kevin zero in here. thanks for watching these review of the week.

we all willingly accepted the risk of being shot wounded taken prisoner but noone signed up to be friggin poisoned by our own people that was nuclear biological and chemical products the said do not truck tires all types of styrofoam polystyrene 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 that was on the ground that are complaining about illnesses from exposure from the berm pits would really literally send a v.a.

broke and they don't want to pay it so the waiting decades a lot of those soldiers will die in time and they will have to pay. all grow up and get the middle finger to movies and model is. delayed and i hope you don't. get it plus a little. high. by then got a session on. the lawn. not . it's almost certainly

not so with. daniel and also was revealed to the pope multiple injuries among current america so for them to give sophie hope the look of the show's real year mercy on the phone to the book on a few months of a comparable sensible solution so you're welcome to book you and we're also what a month. hanumant of nothing. off allowed me to see you how i need something that will save you up. on long enough something outside of. the market to us and then to huddles look modest that's what i can now maybe i'm reading on that people who are left.
