r.t. america is doing the same we are apparently better than. the sea people you've never heard of. the. president of the world bank very. seriously send us an e-mail. headline stories this hour russia vetoed a u.n. resolution on the investigation into the use of chemical weapons in syria waits for a new report on an attack in the country. are. over the use of social media to spread content. for appearing on the channel twenty third. to the destination of choice for asylum seekers germany has launched a myth busting website to deter potential new arrivals. twenty

four hour news live from moscow this is r t international my names you know no good to have your company this hour our top story russia day u.n. resolution to extend a probe into the use of chemical weapons in syria moscow is waiting for a new report from the joint investigative mechanism that's on thursday you can extend the mandate at the gym a few days before the publication of the report on the twenty six even though there is no urgent need for the gym will be operating until seven thousand of november and no nothing prevents adopting a decision. before that date so why today what is the haste don't don't you think it's strange. well arty's killam up and is in new york and

has more on the latest russian move. now the resolution that was defeated would have extended the o.p.c. w.'s mandate for investigation for up to a year now on november seventeenth that mandate was set to expire now the russian ambassador he explained this move saying that russia wants to look through the methods of the o p c w he was said he would agree with the o.p.c. w.'s findings if they would provide irrefutable evidence to back up their claims though he did explain that there were some concerns now previous o p c w reports. in the past we pointed out that they haven't actually visited the site of the chemical attack they received samples from the site they were sent by third parties and some of these third parties are rather controversial and questions are raised about these third parties and how reliable the samples that they have sent are furthermore in june the report from the o.p.c.

to be made clear that they were not determining who was to blame for the chemical attack now that didn't stop the leaders of western countries from blaming the syrian government and calling for action against the syrian government now the russian ambassador also accused washington of fueling media hysteria several days before the vote at the u.n. security council this is what the russian ambassador had to say a few days before. publication of the report to the gym a resolution is her is rushed to extend it by a year before that a powerful campaign in the media is launched. ambassador healy gave an interview in which the clearly cuse drescher of trying to undermine and to peter the work of the jim she sends a letter to letter to the members of the security council speaking about the urgency of extending the mechanism now at this point we're waiting to see the report the report is due on thursday and we'll be hearing about the investigation

work carried out by the o.p.c. w. so far russia made clear that they were not prepared to extend the mandate of the opi c.w. until this presentation had been made and in been clear what work the o.p.c. w. was doing so far. yes caleb spoke on the move to prolong the mandate was brought by washington we asked former u.k. ambassador to syria peter ford why the u.s. was a partly trying to push the investigation through they say they want to extend their behavior by provoking this russian veto might suggest to suspicious mind that really they want to kill it because they know that an object to report is highly unlikely to produce the finding that they want the americans were already being judge jury and executioner here a. base days after the alleged attack the reason to believe that the mechanism is weak because it

has failed to visit the site of the alleged attack it was failed to the air base from which the planes allegedly involved took off even though there would certainly still be traced. to be picked up this is surely rather suspicious the o.p.c. w. was criticized for relying on open source data to produce its initial reports on the can shake and chemical attack part of it for example came from the controversial white helmet the volunteer rescue group that claims to be saving civilian lives in syria but questions remain over the group's allegiances on their status as heroes in the country. this is the newest you tube video of the syria civil defense group aka the white helmets they're saving lives after

a rocket attack on a residential area just to the east of damascus so says the description i'm not trying to say they've been doing a bad job at rescuing but there are things that can destroy a reputation even if it's been built on saving lives social networks will show. how to look at the page of some a wearing a white helmet and his profile pick the hottest for the sake of god how's that for a facebook job field moving on to posted images this is the leader of jaish thought that.

they were attention to what the hash tag stands for j. shelf attack represents me and my family and then smiley face feeling grateful the. next profile with white helmets emblems and a bun but here's something else remember how russia's ambassador in turkey was shot in the back and killed right in front of an exhibition audience you can go back to the post from december two thousand and sixteen on that profile and find the picture of the gunmen followed by peace to your soul champ. civil defense and says this man's job description no worries till you get to the photo section with this pic and the text right next to it is smile as praising a member of eisel after his death you wished. and you got what you wished for and you won with god's willing just some of what he wrote there and there's

a couple of photos of his smile you featuring terrorist symbols and actual faces. written over an older flag of all new straw in syria and terrorist fighters themselves i also remember the video i saw somewhere else. speaking of the white helmet some time spotted together with nusra even an al-jazeera documentary telling the brave story of the serious civil defense can make you suspicious of how close the helmets could get to the jihad is why would activists keep the nusra front flag at a place where they rest and i've got a question to ask whoever edited the subtitles of that film at al-jazeera become of the show. as i've said reputation means a lot and nobel peace prize nomination and an oscar winning film have certainly

helped cement it but it seems there is more to bear in mind for whoever next decides to award the white helmets with the prize. moving on this hour you choose chief business officer has been scrutinized by the media over his appearance on this channel four years ago robert console has been accused of having a cozy relationship with r t bolstering our online presence and the farmer earlier discussed it all with nicky urn. what it would appear that the new york times has been sifting through its archives and is it marked the year twenty thirty now you might remember that twenty thirty was a pretty good year for r.t. that was the year that we became the first news network to surpass one billion views on new cheap and so we decided to mark the occasion we invited a guest in from you tube and that happened to be robert kinsler was the vice president at the time i think users generally appreciate its authenticity that's

very apparent from everything that's going on you tube so instead of having aspirational programming or agenda propagandise people really respond to all sorts of sort of what you saw happening with arab spring for instance schools authentic the audience that watches those some to study and with those who provided to them for years later and r.t. is the most watched news network on you tube we now have over five billion views but to some people are success is very suspicious send so the fact the new york times decided to single out private kinsler piers to be an attempt to name and shame him for ever appearing on r.t. but this isn't the first time we've seen this done i think back to the u.k. foreign secretary boris johnson not so long ago shaming members of the opposition party for appearing as guests on r.t. despite the fact that even members of his own party and even his own father have also appeared as guests on some of our t.v. shows and then there's a european think tank going to all the trouble to make a list of every single person who's ever appeared on r.t.

and branding them useful idiots many people in europe and the us including politicians and the persons of influence continue to exhibit its troubling naivety about artie's political agenda these useful idiots remain oblivious to r.t.s. intentions and boost its legitimacy by granting interviews on the shows and news casts and i'm sorry to say that all the effort that went into that list it wasn't even factually correct was i remember something about boris johnson. so generally speaking where is all this pressure on russia coming from all of this stems from these. unproven accusations that r.t. played a hand in swaying the american votes we somehow managed to convince american people to vote for donald trump over hillary clinton and as a result just last month the u.s. justice department demanded that our us based channel r.t. america register under the foreign agents act and after which moscow has said it just simply can't rule not to attack measures anymore as r.t. faces all of this increasing pressure we've chosen to deal with it in the best way

that we can and we've come up with a new ad campaign in which we thought people would find it amusing and ironic we make light of these accusations we say zoom in to find out who we're going to happen next but quite predictably even our sense of humor has come under scrutiny we also go over to opinion on this from media analysts loan or from ready for inch from the u.k. independence party. every time that the new york times or the washington post or anybody ever does something it's some exposé about r t it makes people in this country even more interested and more fascinated with what r.t. does r t two point one billion views two point two million subscribers now why do you think that is let's just guess is it because of some some kind of the inter agency goings on between you two of the alphabet and google and are gay or is that russian or do people

like it if there is propaganda i would respectfully submit it's pro r d because every time the new york times talks about you i think it's out of jealousy and post your popularity everybody has a choice you can say you can watch c.n.n. you can watch the b.b.c. from anywhere in the world if you happen to be put off the people woman see then people are going to watch it it doesn't matter who you all or who supports you it's enough that obo that's all it is one of them seen some ten. and the fact is it seems that all it see giving some form of news it's people like and so people are consuming it if they didn't like you they know full so what you have got to say when a fan of a page don't know it c n n and i have several times you know i never have a problem you're welcome to ask me any questions you life. and i answer in whatever

way i like that's how the media is no well known to another online media behemoths no facebook users in half a dozen countries have had back at the social media jug which is trying a scheme to charge and use our plates for their posts with the story here is probably voice mail. well this is potentially one of the biggest changes to the way facebook works since its inception thirteen years ago and it's basically trying out a new feature that's called explore it off is uses things from further afield that they wouldn't normally have in their news feeds but in six countries in sri lanka bolivia slovakia serbia guatemala and cambodia that experiment has gone further afield users in those countries have had their news feeds purged completely all of news posts unless it's sponsored content so any news organization that

wants its post to come up in the uses of those countries news feeds will have to pay for the privilege and the news organizations in those countries are already feeling the effects they're talking about a drop in all gammick reach a journalist has written a piece all about how they've had four times fewer interactions since these changes came in news organizations of course rely on facebook as a way of getting more hits on their posts a lot of stuff goes viral through facebook specifically so it's a vital tool for publishers and it's not just concern from smaller news organizations and the non-mainstream ones but it's also a concern further down the line for freedom of the press in general because by creating a barrier that creates you know i need for publishers to pay for people to see what they're posting your effectively curating the news agenda or dare i say it

potentially censoring it as well so at the same time you've got facebook telling news organizations to come down and get a grip this is what the head of it's news feed had to say in response to the concerns in a facebook post take a listen. the goal of this test is to understand if people prefer to have separate places for personal and public content we will hear what people say about the experience to understand if it's annoyed day with pursuing any further there is no current plans to roll this out beyond these test countries or to charge pages on facebook to pay for all of the distribution in news feed or explore i think the key word that's going to keep the smaller news organizations awake at night that is current he said there are no current plans so they're clearly leaving the option open that's got a lot of news outlets worried about a slovakian john s. that has alerted the online world to this issue he doesn't think it's going to work he says the news feed without news is going to

a lot to use is pretty quickly to how utterly boring that friends are well they all mining community start saying the social media network will be supplying people with what they want them to hear and also for severing the link between the organizations and users independent journalist martin somers say use facebook is experimental with its monopoly on power. well i think this is an abuse of the monopoly powers and facebook and the other major u.s. internet companies are basically trying it on the experimenting with this to see if they can use their monopoly power to increase their profits but also more sinister lay there and they're working with the u.s. intelligence services to censor the news it's not really a competitive market one of the other sinister things that doing is de monetizing people they don't like there's actually calls from across the spectrum in the u.s.

for the internet complete to be treated like utilities and they're even got to be run by the government all the got to be regulated by the government to ensure that a competitive market exists. germany has welcomed well over a million refugees over the last number of years but no a myth busting website has been launched by authorities there to deter anyone thinking of taking the perilous journey from north africa with more your summary of financial. well the west side launched by japanese foreign ministers cold rumors about german effects for migraines it's very user friendly easy to use services features small colorful posts busting what the website describes as meat and big lies that human traffickers and small girl is famous for feeding the would be asylum seekers for with such a welcome in payment of two thousand you were false the website says a house or

a job for every new arrival complete nonsense the website explains that the best one could get in germany would be crowded mess accommodation center often in remote places because big cities are no longer available to feed more refugees and that means the chances of very high that no one would speak the migrants language in that plays which will complicate life a lot of course. but

interesting is that the target audience for this website are exactly the same people that just a couple of years ago were so welcome team germany following angle of merkel's a so-called open door policy you'll remember those pictures where germany's chancellor was posing with refugees and you remember the warm welcome that they were getting at railway stations throughout the country so. that website proves why dramatic shift in policy but very logic want the same time following the results here in germany. the tea for germany party historic success it's a far right party and they were using these anti migrant rising one thousand migrants sentiments in the society while merkel's party and their allies throughout

the country has suffered the war stories out in the last half a century it would be fair to mention that the website doesn't all neatly paint a dark picture of what life could be for migrants in germany but it also tells about new opportunities and improvements in potential asylum seekers home countries there are chapters in this website called stability returns to iraq for example or germany creates jobs in middle east and all previously these articles are designed to push maybe these potential migrants to the decision to stay home. a source close to the iraqi prime minister has criticized u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson saying he has no right to interfere in iraq's affairs that's after tillerson advised a rum militias and other foreign fighters to leave iraq as the country just closer

to defeating islamic state. iranian militias that are. going to do a close those militias need to go before the fighters in iraq he to go. well a day off through his speech rex tillerson arrived in baghdad where the prime minister and self defended the rule of the arena and back fighters. as for the popular mobilization forces they are an armed group abiding by iraqi law and the constitution they become highly disciplined we should encourage them and take care of them because they will give hope to this country and the region the spines washington's opposition to the popular mobilization units presence in iraq the us has been fighting alongside them against for years already the group is mostly comprised of shia militants who are trained and financed by to run under ram is

also giving its support to against iraqi kurdistan's push for independence. the iranian foreign minister also commented on the situation saying that the militants shouldn't have to leave because they are already home we discuss this with political analyst roula khalaf. normal times and only countries yes. the sovereignty. of the country no one can tell any government what to do however with the americans who are used to. conducting part of the we're trying to interfere with what the national concerns of the country is probably this is part of the show they're putting because they're trying to please as much as possible the saudis and but also a lake this is business because the more they. play along

putting pressure on iran the more money they will get from the arab countries. the president of ukraine tweeted a commemoration to the tens of thousands of ukrainians who were deported to siberia during soviet times but unfortunately hear the photos showing another tragedy daniel hawkins explains. the whole story rolls around this photo which president poroshenko posted on the day commemorating the deportation of what few craniums to siberia in far eastern russia in one nine hundred forty seven and nobody could have blamed him for wanting to show solidarity with something that many ukrainians view as a terrible historical injustice but this photo isn't what it seems it was actually taken five years earlier back in nineteen forty two it shows apparently jews in poland being transported by nancy forces from the lord's ghetto to shun the extermination camp where tens of thousands were murdered while the original image

is apparently kept in a holocaust museum now the head of the ukrainian jewish committee has brought into the tweet as strange the whole incident is made even more salient because of poland and ukraine is diverging views on the events of that era a particular point of tension between the governments of the massacres of poles in nancy occupied poland in the early large and forty's they were carried out by the ukrainian insurgent army the u.p.a. a group viewed by some as fighters for ukrainian independence and others as far right nancy collaborators a law was actually passed in ukraine in twenty fifteen all oring the organization we can't say for certain whether this accuracy was intentional at the time but three days later it's still up on the president's twitter feed for the world to see . hawkins will political analyst martin mccauley thinks that ukraine may thinks ramifications over the incident. the polish government may in fact protest

but not try to turn it into a really serious incident and polish government may in fact call in new creative doesn't. say these things to him but i would expect him not to issue a formal protest to the government in kiev and to pressure and punishing but say this is and regarded as this is unfortunate mistake and please take the pictures down from the website because it's quite clear that the pictures are not from western ukraine. ok that's the news for noah but why not check out the web page that is causing the new york tele means on the wall street journal so much i'd rate our tease you troop channel five billion views.

how does it feel to be a share of the greatest job in the world it's as close to being a king as any job there is one business model helps to run a prison now we just do or don't like it nobody you know visitation i don't no one comes in anymore we don't have to serve them anymore is. this what they want to do that they don't give a damn if you did. to put it back in. the louisiana incarceration rate is twice as high as the u.s.n. breach what she could is behind such success.

but i hope you don't. get me. to run. eventually you got to be theo i know there's no subtlety. yeah use in the schools approach because i'm going to challenge the whole lot something to the most part of the a lot of the behind of the out. she does the ground she don't need the militias

recovery will. kill them all into it is the food out of it's going to be this not to be but i mean. he. gets to live it up with what. i am max kaiser this is the kaiser report out from a klein desk paul nice guys are the most influential bitcoin are in the world we recommended at three dollars we've created thousands if not tens of thousands of millionaires.
