4:03 pm
time he made a mess we israelis all know that drew. we don't need him to say that. protests against trump's move also being seen in european countries where activists came out onto the streets with palestinian flags artie's europe correspondent peter all of the reports from one such demonstration the german interior minister thomas thomas a called scenes of propellants tinian demonstrations across berlin over the weekend disgraceful well that was because there were some scenes where israeli flags were burnt and other. accusations of anti semitism it's a very different situation here on burley and on monday evening a few hundred people gathered here outside of the german capital's main train station but speaking to people here they've said that their message hasn't changed they're still raging against donald trump's decision to move. the u.s. embassy to jerusalem to accept jerusalem as the capital of israel and they say that
4:04 pm
accusations that these protests have been anti semitic well they're just unfounded . as we are see mites ourselves and we were expelled so we are also against anti semitism and accusing us of that is just nonsense how could all those people be under semitic most of them are of his nervous system of. seven the decision to move the embassy is unjust and tragic donald trump should think of better things to do you can just back one side in this case you have to see both sides and i'm. willing to say to the world only that we want to reduce limb to become be capital city of a palestinian nation if anyone thinks that we won't war they're wrong we strive for peace we want peace. but this demonstration had originally been planned to be held outside of the u.s. embassy however right there right now is actually seeing the lighting of the largest hanukkah menorah in europe so it seemed weiss to move the demonstration
4:05 pm
here very high we have seen violence at demonstrations across the. germany of course making sure they don't want to see that it's all here in berlin but there has been strong words from european politicians and leaders as well and this is the fourth day of demonstrations here in berlin demonstrations from palestinians abroad and those who support them going anywhere here in europe despite the strong objections to troops decision both in the arab world and beyond the u.s. ambassador to the united nations insists that the move will bring peace to the region on the scale of more pain looks into the climb u.s. leaders seem to believe that if you repeat something over and over again it becomes the truth take a listen to nikki haley the u.s. ambassador to the united nations defending trump's recent jerusalem move which caused the violence and chaos throughout the region we are living in the reality that jerusalem is the capital of israel clearly disagree with you this is your.
4:06 pm
this is a regrettable decision the most the capital of israel. this decision gates of. it's the right thing to do. it is absolutely the right thing to do jerusalem is the capital of israel these decisions helpful to the prospects for peace in the region the announcement has the potential to send us back puts to even darker times we are living in the reality that jerusalem is the capital of israel when both parties recognize reality peace comes repeating mantras happens to be a thing in washington d.c. especially when it comes to controversial decisions take a listen to the people's cry for help. this councils to protect in a broadening our military mission to include regime change would be a mistake pretty soon nato cruise missiles were flying in order to back up fighters
4:07 pm
armed by western countries then eventually the country's leader moammar gadhafi was brutally executed here's hillary clinton retelling her version of the events as we came we saw that he died there and then there was that whole weapons of mass destruction routine performed at the united nations by calling powell even brought props less than a teaspoon full of dry anthrax in an envoy shut down the united states senate in the form of two thousand and one iraq declared eighty five hundred liters of anthrax we have no ambition in iraq except to remove a threat so the weapons of mass destruction weren't actually there and now iraq was left in a shambles the main reason we went into iraq it's a time was we thought he had weapons of mass destruction turns out he didn't well bush was forced to admit that he was wrong about iraq but nikki haley is certain there will be no retractions about jerusalem it will move the peace process forward
4:08 pm
i'll come back and tell you i told you so now if any that peace nikki haley is promising ever shows up it's certainly going to make people across the globe quite delighted but until then it looks like simply saying things doesn't make them so caleb oppen r.t. new york. one person has died more than a dozen people have been injured after a gas explosion in austria technical problems have been blamed for the blaze witnesses described flames billowing hung from the sky everywhere around the site is down these pretty boy has the story. this is an explosion at the bound austin gas plant it's an austrian gas facility and it is a major hub for importing gas into europe it supplies a whole host of european countries including gemini france its. police live in year in croatia so the repercussions of the explosion have been quite far reaching italy has been the worst affected they're having to declare
4:09 pm
a national low because rome now has doubled elsewhere in europe the explosion of that explosion the most important north sea gas and oil pipeline has been shut down in order to repair a crack to the pipe and to top things off there's a severe cold snap here at the moment so that's paralyzed travel in some parts of the country so your gas is very much in demand people need heating and prices for suppliers have surged in the fairies at this moment though that price increase could be passed on to consumers which would be at this time of year a very bitter pill for people to have to swallow so this perfect storm of just three variables just goes to show you how vulnerable the energy supply to europe can be out it's now the issue with the austrian facility is that it happened to be the main entry point for gas into europe russian gas accounts for about
4:10 pm
a all of that and there had been a new pipeline in the pipeline so to say the nord stream to that was meant to create another way for russian gas to get to germany and the rest of europe but that project has been put on ice due to mainly political obstacles some european countries are all for it others are worried that it would allow more scope to wield too much power over the rest of europe and the sanctions against russia have made it very difficult for. the admitted figures came as a surprise given that the u.s. defense secretary apparently revealed himself just a few months ago. we have approximately eleven thousand troops in afghanistan and that is seen in our addition of over three thousand u.s. troops arriving in the coming months to extend nato's advisory effort to afghan troops that are currently without a number for iraq is fifty fifty two hundred and the number for serious to tats.
4:11 pm
when the white house provided figures on troop involvement a broad six months ago some was surprised and number of u.s. lawmakers for example had no idea that american soldiers were stationed in new jets from the u.s. congressman ron paul told us the level of transparency isn't surprising but i didn't know there was a thousand troops in niger you heard senator graham there he didn't know we had a thousand troops in the air did you know i did not get well i'm fortunately we don't like surprises it's sort of the routine especially with the new administration because the president has stated that he wants to keep everything under his best under his vest because he doesn't want people to know and he believes that's proper policy but it's not good good law because the constitution says he's not a lot of send troops around the world without the people in the congress knowing about it is because it's very difficult especially if they say well this is secret we can't let the people know we can't let the enemy know where our troops are so
4:12 pm
they put the american people in the category of the enemy because we're not a lot of know and so it's really a government out of control but it's what's the what this reflects is a foreign policy that there are institute ron paul institute disagrees with we don't think it's in our interest we don't think it's an interest of our security and we don't believe this brings peace and we don't bring it prof prosperity so we have practical reasons and legal reasons why we don't think these troops should be overseas and if there is any of them overseas we should know exactly where they are because who knows they may be shooting off guns and bombs and drones and getting ourselves into a mess that we don't want to be in. and according to a report by the u.s. military journal stars and stripes as many as forty four thousand american troops stationed across the world are not trying to buy the pentagon one point three million in total around three hundred thousand u.s.
4:13 pm
personnel serve outside america in over one hundred fifty countries and we requested comment from the department of defense and it said that some personnel are indeed marked as having an unknown location as they may for example be at sea i think that it's data center may not accurately reflect the current force totals is ron paul again saying that defense departments explanation just won't do that's their excuse but that should not happen and in a republic i mean people are supposed to know what's going on the people who are supposed to speak out the people are supposed to tell their members of congress when we should get involved in hostilities and once again it's a theory of what our responsibilities are around the world most every country in the world is imperfect including ours but our immediate goal should be to improve ourselves and not pretend that we can tell other people how to live and who should run their countries even though there are plenty of problems around but i don't
4:14 pm
think other people like us to take this role of secretly putting troops around the world and interfering in saying well we're we're going to improve your governments and we're going to tell you what to do if you don't do well we what we're going to put sanctions on you. europe is moving closer to building a new military alliance seen by some as a parallel version of you can treaty signed a defense pact called disco on monday it was some of its key goals. twenty five you states of already signed up comprises eighteen projects in different spheres of defense some of these will duplicate nato functions to take a closer look then at some of the crossovers involved here like nato pascoe will
4:15 pm
conduct train and assist missions similarly it will dedicate resources to fighting and preventing cyber attacks it will also establish crisis resolution centers need to head the end stoltenberg says the project will strengthen the european pillar within nato top e.u. officials also praised eve foreign policy chief federica margaret he called the move historic good younker welcomed it pointing out that e.u. security cannot be outsourced but the foreign minister of poland expressed concern you go and experiment and raise doubts whether europe needs a second defensive body in addition to nato political commentator ron bricmont believes the venture is doomed to fail. what's the point of the military is to wage war you can either wage a defensive work if you're on the attack on the offensive or the attack of the counties now you can attack we can three socks tongue countries now defending ourselves against whom against obviously against russia but who can think for
4:16 pm
a second that question i would launch a war against one of its neighbors i mean you see i mean there are bound to lose that war because of illusion ship of strength this is not good and they don't want a nuclear war nobody wants a nuclear war so i don't see how it means make sense to defend ourselves because we don't have any enemies of course we could also attack russia but that would be suicidal too for the same reason the only thing that's left is to attack. and continues the absurdity of the european construction i'm sorry this is a this is bound to be a failure of course it will exist in that sense it will be a success but you know what's going to what is it going to accomplish peace is being is we don't have war we don't have any of the enjoy for the only problem is terrorism and that's not going to help fight terrorism. the main suspect in monday's botched new york bombing had been accessing islamic state related materials online according to a court statement to the seven year old who's had multiple charges pressed against
4:17 pm
him allegedly planning the attack for a year used his facebook page on the day of the time to say that trumpet failed to defend america three people as well as alarm self were injured in that explosion near times square i feel like. this happens every day before this happens off. the streets i think it's i think it's kind of normal for these times were particularly in new york city which is targeted many times and it's the new normal. surveillance cameras captured the moment of the blast took place below the port authority to manila said to be the busiest bus stop in the world the suspect had a homemade pipe bomb attached to his body terrorism expert doug weeks says the long wolf attacks here to stay straying attacks are happening with increased

4:20 pm
justice it is the spanish government and the authorities american that came to the museum look at and want god. we've already seen the marks against democracy in human rights today we also saw them ignore cultural values people in poser imbue these artifacts with perhaps greater actual value than what they have because they speak to a larger set of tensions between the two parties. for a tarion approach on top of all the other authoritarian approaches that the catalogs have been subject to that makes this particular case so important.
4:21 pm
