but i mean. look. at. saudi arabia allegedly ordered rebels to attack damascus early on in the syrian civil war supporting them with weapons according to the latest a leak from whistleblower edward snowden. division could worsen between pro and anti independent police offices in spades if madrid goes ahead with seizing control of the rest of the region and the local police force a color court with of this let's go live report from there plus. the u.s. will release classified files into president kennedy's assassination day today for a fifty year deadline passes lifting the lid then on one of the country's darkest.

near moscow this thursday the twenty sixth of october my name is kevin irwin thanks for joining us this first in the headlines than saudi arabia allegedly ordered syrian opposition forces to quote light up damascus back in twenty thirty while providing me with tons of weapons for the assault it seems that revelation came from the n.s.a.'s most well known whistleblower a smear account explains well according to an n.s.a. document leaked by edward snowden the syrian armed opposition was under the direct command of foreign governments are the document reveals that the damascus attacks on march eighteenth two thousand and thirteen were directly ordered by a saudi prince. who reportedly provided provided one hundred twenty tons of explosives and. other weaponry two anti assad forces under the free syrian army

umbrella also giving them instructions to quote light up damascus and quote flatten the airport of the memo also says that u.s. intelligence had a prior knowledge of the attack three days before hand to be precise and not only that but the report states that the saudi government was quote very pleased with the outcome but it should also be noted that these attacks resulted in heavy clashes between the two sides let's take a look. at. oh . i. know we haven't been able to independently verify these documents but if proven true the top secret intelligence memo will confirm that saudi arabia

aided an armed insurgency that launched massive attacks on civilian civilian infrastructure as well as military targets for the eventual goal of regime change. two of these to was a critical point in the war in syria the conflict spread from local areas of cross the country with foreign powers beginning to support both sides in what became a fully fledged civil war and it led to most civilian military casualties former cia officer joe rice believes the international players change the whole balance of power. the problem is when you start seeing proxy wars when you start seeing riyadh step into this and you see others step into this what happens is it will take one small group one schism in that entire revolution if you will and funded dramatically which gives them enormous power frequently over everybody else because remember in the middle of a civil war like this yes there was a turnover of some weapons from the damascus army but those are relatively small

when you look at it in the big picture it's when you see outside forces come in and dump in this case i quote tons of weapons into the region it changes and it really flips everything on its head and it makes it that much worse and that's exactly what happened in this case we are saudi arabia for comment on the allegations earlier today nothing yet if we heard anything from riyadh we'll let you know. following this next catalonia independence crisis that could well reach your head this coming weekend nearly a month now after the controversial referendum parliament's in both the separatist region and madrid holding special sessions with the federal government threatening direct control and in turn can lead to saying that that will push them to outright to close session so lots to follow here potentially in barcelona force let's go the . feeling still really running on both sides that encounter alone here what's the latest where you are no single crowds out again today.

well yes this is a big day in potentially this crisis between catalonia and the government despite its government imagery it might be able to see a sea of catalan flags behind me these are mainly students have come out to process what they are unhappy about the discontent with what's happening between this region of cattle and i was at this parish government that this protest takes place as said it is in retreat due to start a cheat a discussion with four of those to an article one find five this is the article that if you will remove the regional autonomy. the catalan parliament now the leader of the catalan parliament was asked to go to a tree to speak to the senate as he refused to do that too said in the last few minutes that each spain it revokes the autonomy of the castle and region it will deepen this crisis he instead will be holding his own meeting today catalan parliament many people braced to see whether they will right to claim independence

now the divisions on the streets of visible people for and against likes of both the spanish government and also here the council and the new more difficult is that to call the police force wall between a rock and a hard place we've been having a look at some of the channel divisions between the most was a spot that. was either of the thank you was i was right was when the national guard that we find that we see that's a load yet right down the road ready to go to is the local police the most o.c. squad to refuse to school now is the spanish senate is set to launch one fifty five suspending the breach was going to meet the most is what is a budget to come and visit the troops that's all they say it's the loosest. that.

we see the implementation of article one five five as the list desired scenario we call for all opportunities for dialogue to be used prior to the adoption of this article but to fold some atlee it turns out to be impossible because of political failures clashes within the institutions and overall crisis we ask for this article to be adopted at least with the council on autonomy its institutions and especially the police taken into account one of the symbols of catalan nationhood most especially is going back to the eighteenth century the. seventeen thousand strong force is considered to have a big influence here with the population of seven point five million people in catalonia now the council and police are undergoing their own test of independence despite state and secret trinity this seems to be a divide within the ranks at the moment castle and society is deeply divided and

that's a fact that would be hypocritical to deny the same division can be seen inside the police but first of all we want to say that we remain calm of course we will continue to do our everyday work no matter what happens and we want to cast one place to stay as the police for all catalans. the chief of most of us has already been accused of inciting people to rebel against the state just step in the eastern affairs or has become a hero to some and a traitor for others. when

we dread to take so most of us will face a tough choice between central government and it's a lot of forces now one of the trains first moves will be most likely to move cattle on authorities the question is will most of us follow orders charlotte david's good altie muscle and. you like could be showed on one of the twentieth century darkest. episodes later today donald trump's of ministration is allowing the release of classified documents into president kennedy's assassination as the fifty years deadline to keep the information under wraps passes kennedy was killed in dallas in november one hundred sixty three he was in an open top car at the time with the first lady will know those pictures when the shots rang out the killer was lee harvey oswald he was swiftly arrested but was shot and killed two

days later while under police escort historians along pored over oswald's motives and his past has been retracing in significant chapter in the tories killer's life on the other side of the atlantic. where might you find the most drama and lee harvey oswald's life story before the events of november nineteenth sixty three well it could be his short but eventful stay in this city for years before he was sas unaided president kennedy. most of the places which formed part of extraordinary trip still exist like the ski railway station where he arrived from helsinki in finland his last stop in a western country before reaching the u.s.s.r. . also old stayed right here at

the hotel berlin which is now the savoy it's just a few minutes walk from. the former k.g.b. headquarters. his visa meant that he only had six days to get a soviet citizenship so he wasted no time in trying to secure his hammer and sickle passport which began with this letter i believe harvey oswald request that i be granted citizenship in the soviet union i want citizenship because i am a communist and a worker i have lived in a decadent capitalist society where the workers are slaves i do not want to return to any country outside of the soviet union there was interview after interview with the k.g.b. but couldn't convince officials he should be allowed that passport then back inside hotel berlin his russian guy in reality a supervisor that is assigned to every foreign visitor. inside the bag.

inside one of these rooms he slashed his wrist. attempting to commit suicide doctors managed to save oswald's life he was allowed to stay and wait for mercy from a higher soviet authority with this confidence boost to the extreme asked american diplomats to revoke his citizenship then he agreed to an interview with one u.s. journalist i would say he was extremely superficial. very immature. and very misinformed and. it took the former u.s. marine an enormous effort more than two months to get a soviet passport only for one year the day after he got hold of the document he set off for minsk and bell reuss the capital of one of the u.s.s.r. small republics to work out

a soviet factory he boarded his train ride on this station and minsk oswald met his first soviet lover but she turned down his marriage proposal because she was afraid to marry an american and just two months later he met a nineteen year old marine a person his future wife and mother of his first child yet with a drab job and nothing to do outside of work according to oswald himself he would soon make the decision to leave the u.s.s.r. for good along with his family. after what seemed to be disillusionment with the u.s.s.r. there was only one way home for office walt and that was through the american embassy. ilya patrol. tracing the footsteps of lee harvey oswald in moscow. hillary clinton's election team the democratic national committee reportedly helped

bankroll the now infamous dossier on donald trump the document was published back in january and outlined in substantiated links and deals between moscow and the trauma campaign in the run up to last year's presidential election here's how the u.s. president reacted them to the latest news very sad what they've done with this fake was made up. i understand they paid a tremendous amount of money and hillary clinton always denied it the democrats always denied it i think it's a disgrace it's just really a very it's a very sad it's a very sad commentary on politics that has got. the research on donald trump was initially funded by an unnamed republican members then picked up by a law firm representing hillary clinton's camp of the democrats it continued to late october twenty sixth just days before the election the first behind the dossier a fusion g.p.s. hired a former british spy to dig up dirt on but the company refused to testify in congress on the matter then watching the hawks discuss the revelations in detail with r.t.

america host ed schultz. why is the d.n.c. funding you know this coming to light the d.n.c. funding of the steel report such an important piece of this ongoing puzzle because they were trying to create the perception in the minds of the american public that russia was behind all of it and that russia was the bad guy turns out the d.n.c. was fun to get the clinton campaign was fun to get if a republican as it's been reported did start this out this investigation out well obviously there was competition over there seventeen people but when you get to the point of a campaign works down to two people it's party versus party ideology versus ideology and you involve a foreign country and make the american people think that they're really the people behind all this i just think that scurrilous it's really underhanded and the one thing about this that was so strange and just basically looking at it is that it wasn't a normal intelligence report there was no back up and you were talking about half of the step was then clarified i'm in love look at the person at the heart of all

this hillary clinton you know where does this leave hillary clinton and her credibility because i mean she referenced them use the steel dossier in her book what happened writing the f.b.i. also began investigating a dossier prepared by a well respected former british spy that contained explosive and salacious allegations about compromising information the russians had on trial now i would say leaving out the fact that you were by announcing this apparent well respected former british writer in his research that's a pretty big gap to leave and you can't tell me it's that it's shares that he doesn't know is that these former candidate skinhead is what it is when they're writing blogs if it fits good just go ahead and do with it and here's the other cardinal sin in my opinion the networks took this hook line and sinker and ran with it as gospel as well and their managers allowed them to do that as well without fact check a good exactly what this was all about well he's former british intelligence it

must be true so you tell me that six million dollars went out the door to pay for this quote. research and this was all ginned up which a lot of it isn't true some of it may be but certainly it started journalistically based let's cut to the chase so what we do know. that russia did not have the dossier on donald trump. to come right ahead we hear from the parents of a suspected sympathizer who's trying to get back now to the u.k. from whence it came to the government's refusing to help.

make this manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the fine. be the one percent. you know middle of the room sick.

herds of a british man known as jihadi jack who traveled to isolate held territory in syria in twenty four to protest in the u.k. government's lack of help in bringing the son home the couple face charges of funding terrorism by sending him money it's a charge they strongly deny though they also insist this son was trying to infiltrate the terrorists to work against them since he's been out of isis territory he's been say we're now like now i can explain that to him and friends who work against isis from the inside they have to address the issue that it is immoral and illegal to leave somebody else in a hole with no trial no process no charge what he did why he did all that kind of thing with those questions he cannot say but he can only answer them if there's a proper process and a proper kind of trial and pushed me away he can adjust those things so at the moment he's been locked in a real they've thrown away the key and he's just been left to rot jihadi jux real

name is jack let's know twenty one years old he traveled to syria back in twenty fourteen after his arrival jack was jailed by the terrorists but then eventually managed to escape some reports suggest that he was later captured by kurdish forces in the city of rocket we've been debating the case with our guests. the story put forward by his parents is so ludicrous that i actually had to check the date to make sure it wasn't a real the first the notion that this guy went to syria to infiltrate islamic spirit a kind of a modern day james bond is laughable and painful i just think we need to have the rule of law this is an idea that we just because people are muslim or fighting for one side or another that we suddenly brush aside any kind of rule of law any kind of trial any kind of hearing an evidence i think that's unconscionable i think his parents are being very strong to use this issue but their hunger striking our outside some polls they're protesting out there we need to hear the evidence is if david is correct in jihadi jack has been in fact fighting with them then absolutely

he should rot in prison he should face all kinds of summary justice the problem is we don't know i would simply say this if we believe that it's right to hunt and kill islamic terrorists in syria if we believe we've got three and a half thousand of them here in the u.k. surely on the same logic that must also prevail at the end of the day you only win a war if you defeat the enemy we should hunt each one of them dying in a matter of where they come from it doesn't matter what their fifth is but if they fight for islamic state that's maybe a clue in the theater of war on the battlefield there are rules of engagement but outside that if we are carpet bombing. i'm just going into place and killing people why because. you're hanging about with the wrong crowd the collateral damage has been horrific iranians are written to come by and using words like exterminate these are human beings they have families regardless of what side of the divide they're on at the end of the day no idea of no confidence that our government can

successfully track these individuals it's time to fight back stop them returning it's a simple message it works. well jack let's parents insist that their son was young and naive when he traveled to syria and that he's never been involved in any violence earlier we've been reporting to the jacket joined islamic state let's clarify that has not been fully verify but we'll continue on this case no let's go back in history a bit on this day fifteen years ago russian police raided the dubrovnik a theater in moscow bringing one of the country's most deadly terror attacks in its history to an end hundred thirty people were killed the victims are being remembered outside the theater in the russian capital white balloons have been released as a tribute to every person killed another and dozens of people have been laying flowers and lighting candles to the. two thousand musical theater production nor doest. the performance drew crowds of three

years ago as to the city's theater when's the venue was packed with people enjoying the critically acclaimed show. until dozens of mass stormed the building. within minutes hundreds of people would say can hostage you can lead to many children and elderly people spend the next three days trapped in the concert hall deprived of food water medicine. after hours of negotiations that sac is agreed to release forty one people they also allowed some journalists inside and stated their demand an end to the russian military campaign against the islamist insurgents in chechnya thank you so.

when we wish the worst the kremlin offered to let the group leave russia if they released the hostages but it soon became clear the militants had no plans of making a lawyer. national guard. on saturday two hostages was shot trying to flee hours later authorities decided to launch a rescue operation a father caught in the morning a chemical agent was pumped into the building's ventilation system to knock out the jihad ists and prevent them from detonate an explosives. in the stand up that followed nearly fifty terrorists were killed the first hostages were then carried out the building and rushed to hospital the sea was over one hundred thirty large bowl last.

fifteen years on and the theater siege is remembered as one of the worst terrorist attacks in russia's history and the thoughts all know doest remain synonymous with the tragedy. you know tragic day remember a check is on facebook if you get a moment spare if you go more time on your hands now you change channel keep you busy for hours and great videos and all the latest news updates there for you of course for me though for now kevin owen thanks watch his latest live update from international. a plate for many flips over the years so i know the game inside god's. football isn't only about what happens on the pitch for the final school it's about the

passion from the fans it's the age of the super money kill the owners and spend the two to twenty million. it's an experience like nothing else going to because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful guy great so well. and thinks it's going to. 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 it on like i said you know b.t.o. visitation i don't know what comes in anymore we don't have to sarge and many more it's cost effective that's what they want to. know and they don't give a damn if you do the chores or not actually paying us to put them back into the louisiana incarceration rate is twice as high as the u.s.n.

breach what she could is behind such success. so if anyone and you go there resist the american designers it just may be a terrorist to me it can be. a model that has been happening with the and. he thought by now he knew was either one. son. or. harder.

oh. well you know.

if. you're. black you're going to ask. oh yeah. and when. it. comes out in the.
