. for nearly seventy years the city of jerusalem has been the capital of the state of israel despite many attempts by others to deny that reality. we regret the u.s. president's decision to moscow met washington's decision with serious concern these decisions are helpful to the prospects for peace in the region our actions reflected an honest assessment of reality it is fuelling tensions and increasing instability in an already volatile and turbulent region our actions are intended to help advance the cause of peace at stake is the respect of international law and the legitimate rights of for each site at stake is the legitimacy of the security council israel like all nations has the right to determine its capital city you know that actions attempting to change the status of jerusalem respond fritzing long existing foundation for thirty two months of the israeli palestinian issue the
6:06 pm
united states took this step in full knowledge that it will raise questions and concerns whether it does this is a dangerous precedent this meeting reflects fear over repercussions of the unilateral decisions that run counter to and threaten the system the political relations the united states will not be lectured to by countries that lack any credibility when it comes to treating both israelis and palestinians fairly. however the us and boy to the united nations nikki haley attacked the un itself accusing the global body of being biased against israel. over many years the united nations has outrageously been of the world's foremost centers of hostility towards israel the un has done much more damage to the prospects for middle east peace been to advance we will not be a party to that the united states no longer stands by when israel is unfairly

6:08 pm
is that we are here for already seventy years all our government institutions are in jerusalem and if anybody opens the bible well there will five that since the time of day king david zero slim was the capital of israel the choice is actually not just a matter of capital of israel the choice is whether. people want to respect history hol chair see ology and whether they want to respect their own promises what the president trump respects his words he promised to move the embassy you promised the recognized one and he thousand it's a very good example for other people to be loyal to closest allies. in the quest to prove donald trump cleared it with russia shows no signs of letting up
6:09 pm
c.n.n. recently had a story don't trump kenya had sent a direct link to wiki leaks hacked documents on the democratic national committee before they were made public. it was september fourth two thousand and sixteen at the height of the campaign that's when candidate donald trump his son donald trump jr and even trump jr's personal assistant they got an e-mail with a decryption key and a website address for hacked wiki leaks documents the documents were made public on september the thirteenth via wiki leaks twitter feed c.n.n. claim that the e-mail was sent on september the fourth which later turned out to be false the e-mail was actually sent it to try jr on september the fourteenth the day after the data went public he later tweeted a response to the full c.n.n. story i know that you can't help but spread freaky news but now that you know the truth you should have the decency to retract the full story make the correction take down the beer street and apologize to the two or three people that still
6:10 pm
believe you to be credible your work the u.s. president also slammed the story kucing those behind it of gross incompetence while wiki leaks founder julian assange called for someone to be fired the network later ran a correction giving quote the proper context for the timing of the email we discussed a story with several independent journalists they believe this in and run the story without fact checking simply to cause a scandal. i think they have become a victim of their own mania that they have themselves helped create more than anyone else we've had a long long list of errors that had to be corrected in this long running hysteria about russia's supposin interference in the american election even more disturbing stories where there's not real factual error but there spawn in a way that leads into the story they're trying to prove they have lost control of how to report this story they never had an objective view about that and don't forget there's kind of relationship between mainstream media like c.n.n.
6:11 pm
and what you might call operatives of the state where they brief people to give them stories and then they just repeat what they're told by these essentially anonymous state sources and they don't bother to check because they can't check to some extent they like that situation because they've got inside information and they feel privileged but of course they can be manipulated and they can just get it wrong as they seem to have done in this case and in this case of course they got the dates of the wiki leaks concept wrong which completely changed the context of the story it wasn't that wiki leaks has been contacted before the election and trying to been a straight and people have been given the inside knowledge that they just got the same information the same terms of a body else and c.n.n. jump in order to try and create create a scandal as it were and it's backfired for them the efforts to undermine trump's president see haven't stopped there reposts in the u.s. media citing an anonymous source says russia's equivalent to facebook got in touch
6:12 pm
with team trump its claim the v. k. social network offered to promote trance candidacy among russian speaking americans in the election tackling the game is deeper into the story. no news is good news but russian news is always breaking is no matter how shaky the connection. that explosive information comes from anonymous sources familiar with an e-mail sent by the british publicist rob goldstone he's the guy who arranged the infamous trump jr meeting with a russian lawyer back in june of two thousand and sixteen c n n issued an exclusive report saying those e-mails are the first indication there was any follow up after that meeting and not follow up centers around what goldstone allegedly referred to as a cute marketing idea scandalous here's what happened the director of partnership marketing v.k. russia's equivalent of facebook hit up team trump to set up
6:13 pm
a page on their website to appeal to russian americans before the election finally the smoking gun right on the network confirmed they made an offer to trump just like they did to a bunch of other popular people we welcomed international celebrities joining our social network we invited donald trump to create a v.k. account like many other celebrities but the media all but push those facts of the side choosing instead to focus on the young exact himself one outlet said they became manager represented a new point of direct contact between an influential russian and advisors to trump not really sure if influential is the way to classify this guy however. the media are also pointing out that the v. k. executive has taken photos of trump and at a separate event snapped one with president putin well apparently that didn't impress the trump team they didn't reply to the network's request. we never
6:14 pm
received a reply from donald trump's representatives it is absolutely ludicrous and it is part of the nature of how war media has covered this entire story for this entire year and plan to continue to do for months and months and months as long as it keeps their ratings elevated because it's russia that's why this is so exciting to the media and a way for them to store up a story that is absolutely baseless and yet another one of hundreds of hundreds of stories that have been and will continue to be nothing but sensationalism and russia phobia a stock home district is fast becoming a war zone according to chief prosecutor we'll look at why after the break. let me explain something terribly out there is wants to be a success in life there's two ways to go you can either become educated you can do
6:15 pm
that by yourself go to the new york university website or the gallatin division and get the syllabus of the book list at all gala to the vision students have today i was at the galton division near conversative it's probably two hundred fifty plucks starting with aristotle read those books now you are educated the second way you can be a success in life is you got to know three things bridge golf tennis looking for things and speed. so there is no those all important as a person but here is important in those far as is leaving would cause a risk in the regime falling apart so indeed the americas are americans are much less dumb and to have him leave the old oil from time to time they keep saying if they go so in the end i think most countries are accepting that if you will steve.
