but i welcome you watching r.t. this friday morning where it's just gone eleven o'clock here in moscow our top story does have agreed to integrate their defenses into a more unified force and it does mean member nations will have to increase their military spending european council president don't want to screw field the plan at a summit on thursday. today this dream becomes a reality we are launching permanent structures corporation so-called. which is a practical expression of our will to build european defense isco is not only good news for us but it is also good news for our allies. and a bit in us if pascoe has been nearly two decades in the making but will now unite twenty five easy member states and it includes taking eighteen defense projects so far well a lot of them do mirror existing nato projects so let's look at some of the similarities
3:02 am
tesco includes train and assist missions which are a common in nato operations it will also include fighting cyber attacks as well as creating crisis resolution centers again similar to what nato is already doing poland which is signed up to the pact is already questioning the need for duplicate defenses we will see how this experiment works out and we can always leave the pact if it's in satisfactory for poland the question is whether we really need to have a second defensive body in the u peace campaign a porker we can martin believes that even with an extra layer of the fence the e.u. will still struggle to tackle one of its biggest problems by the end extremism. they are now entering into agreement where they are going to have to increase their military spending at the cost of their needs pascoe does not help with the issue of violent extremism you can invest as much money as you want in tanks and airplanes
3:03 am
and other type of military warfare that does not solve the problem of the lone wolf or the easy violent extremists attack or investing more money in these other type of military toys or tanks instead of investing money in the long term solutions that will help around the issues of violent extremism the more you spend on the military the more apt your you to use that rather than diplomatic tools and other means to solve the crisis. or just beyond the border there is a village in both me and herzegovina which is seeing a large number of radicalized fighters returning from syria and iraq surely devinsky has been there to see whether he has gotten extremism hot bed fermenting on its doorstep. we're heading to the small of the nature of australia it's one of sixty five communities of course it was me

it's the beach it's considered to be radicalized they've been dubbed shari'a villages that's because residents practice what hop is an ultra conservative form of islam. it looks like an ordinary sleepy village a few houses nestled between the hills not how you might imagine a cradle of terror. but the local a mom is telling me that some of the residents have joined islamic state in this one minute of the there are people who went to syria and forty on the side of i still but we tried to stop them. bosnia has been one of the main targets of islamic state propaganda dubbed a recruitment hotbed. with i still suffering dramatic losses in syria the recruits
3:05 am
are expected to come home some of them already did a little it's only one person now and we are distancing ourselves from him we have nothing to do with him. the fear is that us fighters come back they may not just spread radical ideology but also in far on the stop pushing an islamic caliphate hair in europe or working here. in bosnia and herzegovina they're already small caliphates existing the reason they're far from the cities and towns is that it allows them to perform any covert activity they need to in the fact that they're recruiting members means in the future there will be a big threat to europe the bosnian government try to curb the terror threat by making it illegal to fight for a foreign military and more than a dozen of those who have returned from syria have been jailed well the country is
3:06 am
also spending millions of euros on the radicalization projects but is it all working the local a mom says he feels for his life after speaking out against those who joined eisel really with these radical elements are always unpredictable these people prayed with me the aid at the same table as me and they want to shoot me i saw defeat in syria and iraq will most likely to arrive its foreign fighters back home for many of them as we've just learned home means here a sleepy village in a reclusive area in the heart of europe where stream ism has already taken root charlotte deep in ski r.t. bosnia and herzegovina. two police officers in the u.s. state of cincinnati are accused of using excessive force after tasering suspects during a domestic dispute inquiry body can put each of the incident that happened early this year is only just surface of ward word of warning though you might find some
3:07 am
of the footage disturbing but. they are. well the officers confronted two men inside a house totally with out prior indication they were under threat one of the men suffered from a collapsed lung as a result of the compensation a complaint was filed by the county's prosecutor sorry but the county prosecutor as prevented the offices from being interviewed. since two thousand over one thousand people have died in the us after being stunned with tasers by police and nine out of ten were also unarmed a number of those tasered also suffered from mental illness in fact concerns of police abuse of now prompted amnesty international to issue an appeal for stricter taser rules in the us one victim who sued officers describe for us what he went
3:08 am
through. a recovered like physically but mentally on the. heart of think about still even though it's been. repeatedly did it over and over and over two days and two they just tell me that there was not going to be a bomb on the. first floor called. the way they were laughing.
3:09 am
and pretty much having fun with it. i was afraid that they were going to try and kill me but we spoke to the lawyer who represented jordan norris there during his case and he says the police actions could could amount to torture. i first met with jordan actually in this office and he told me what had happened and it was hard to believe frankly the question that the law asks is whether or not the use of force had a legitimate law enforcement purpose in other words was it necessary to keep this person in custody in a safe environment to use the force in question in this situation or he's already fully restrained he's being taste anyway i didn't see any religious law enforcement reason for that force to be used and if they're using you know painful force against this young man without any reason i can't really think of a better word than torture to describe that. cook in russian little could see
3:10 am
from a remote region facing a hefty fine or even jail for using a tracking device to follow away would catch on. to the master to the highest level . up to four years in prison for a simple g.p.s. tracking device attached to a cow sounds weird if not surreal but thanks to one peculiarity in russia's criminal law it's real. meat eve gani the suspect it's. slash farmer. slash father. you know i was going to make a cola for this cough and attach a g.p.s. tracker to it was so that i can see his whereabouts at least roughly when i need to see. the calf is a terrible way he just disappears every now and then. we have huge areas of abandoned farmland it's hard for me to run after him because i've asked him there were times with this one once i spent two whole days searching for. a tiny gadget
3:11 am
that would save the day why not fetch it online for a bargain price and so you gave me did only to be met by officers at the post office the g.p.s. tracker had a built in mike which makes it an illegal spying device if there's no license technically here's your crime the result a confiscated gadget and either crippling fine or prison plus the dubious honor of being the first ever spy in the village or really in the middle of nowhere. getting in trouble like this i couldn't have imagined not even in a nightmare. if the jail him were in my daughter's future a fine would be very harsh it would really hurt our pockets so i do it's terrifying for us after a bit of research we thought it could be one of the things our t. should bring up on thursday. as far as i know last year more than two hundred
3:12 am
people were found guilty under the same law what can you say about that. i didn't even get the reasons for using g.p.s. for. purpose. ordered the gadget online from china because the calf would run loose it what it is about is that illegal was obliged to pay for it there is an article in the russian criminal code under which people can be charged if they. didn't even know that such a lower existed i'll definitely look into that article in the cases with those individuals it's the first time i'm hearing about problems with attaching such things to cat was i know the trackers are even put on cats to make sure they don't get lost what's the problem with couse this needs to be sorted out i'll handle it there's years of that i didn't think my problem would get publicity i hope this means that they reconsider the law because lots of people have suffered because of this when i was watching the t.v. i was nervous i hope the case is resolved in my favor and maybe we can breathe
3:13 am
freely by new year. so there's mr terre waste to be less of a troublemaker without any laws being broken he'll have a train go our t. . now a bit later today in our t. we didn't get to meet more legends of world football past and present to stan collymore continues the countdown to the twenty eighteen well up. it's not really going to. do is one of these. cool thing every generation england against knowledge and so you know what was the mood about playing against maradona all group best player in the world you were scoring goals. didn't he was that outside boy. you know south american their
3:14 am
backgrounds what they grow know they fight anyway they can get to win anyway that's all that matters you know that that second goal when he picks pirouettes and off he goes that sort of loss and sort of gravitas that when you're on the football pitch you wear that that's a. moment i see only so ever in my career that i ought to applaud i didn't and i just thought my god could because you've got to realise where we've put their massive problems with the pitch how we did what we did on the surface and the turns and the twists especially the first little bit distant i didn't just fall over as you say you had that low center of gravity need that kind of shape. it really was an astonishing go i think has to be i think the most the best individual goal level because you've got to i mean as well the significance of the occasion the course of the game. you know i remember watching that game
3:15 am
a great interview you can see them full bit later on still ahead he sat there could be hundreds of claims against british troops be human rights abuses after a high court victory for four iraqi men we'll have the details after the break. i wouldn't call make this manufacture consent to stick to public well. when the ruling class isn't protect themselves. when the final merry go round lifts certainly the one percent. we can all middle of the room sick. to listen to the real news. local blogs sell you on the idea that dropping bombs brings police to the
3:16 am
chickenhawk forcing you to fight the battle. for new socks for the tell you that celebrity gossip and tabloids i fell. off doesn't tell you on the cool enough to buy their products. all the hawks that we all. love watching. welcome back you with a knife for iraqi men have won damages against britain's defense ministry over the ill treatment by soldiers during the iraq war the high court's ruling could now pave the way for hundreds more claims against britain over human rights abuses in situ reports. an important ruling by the high court here in london the judge had found that british troops in their detention of these people had acted in violation
3:17 am
of the geneva conventions as well as the human rights act citing cruel and inhumane treatment as well as unlawful detention the judge here in london said that the assaults quote involved the gratuitous infliction of pain and humiliation for the amusement of those who perpetrated them and quote now we have to keep in mind that this comes just ten days after the international criminal court found quote reasonable basis to understand that british troops had been involved in war crimes when it came to the detention of iraqi citizens. now the reason this is important is because this could be seen as a test cases when it comes to over six hundred similar cases similar claims currently ongoing in the way these claims are going to be handled moving forward we
3:18 am
also have to remember that over three hundred claims were settled out of court by the ministry of defense that had paid out as much as twenty two million pounds and in reaction to this latest ruling we know that the ministry of defense have said that they're studying this judgment and he was campaigning brian becker says that people are getting away with crimes because some nations put themselves above the law. it's the only way for accountability to work is for deterrence to work is to show that there will be punishment that there will be accountability for grievous crimes against humanity here we have in the united states and in the united nations and with the u.k. government a system set up whereby all of the targeted entities by those countries they come to the hague they go to the international criminal court but the perpetrators of the aggression of the occupation of the torture of the violation of geneva conventions those who have really done this they exempt themselves they immunize
3:19 am
themselves from prosecution there shouldn't just be civil penalties there should be war crime trials for tony blair in those in the u.k. government and military and likewise with bush and cheney and rumsfeld there should really be accountability there should be criminal penalties. concerns are growing over the freedom of the internet in the u.s. after federal regulators scrapped so-called net neutrality rules tech giants among them facebook twitter and that flicks have slammed the decision they called this a blow to innovation and freedom of speech and they were also joined by new york's attorney general who vang to see the federal communications commission over the move this is more than an attack on the future of our internet as we know it it's a travesty for anyone who cares about the integrity of their voice in government so we are going to fight back so his net neutrality works we do access the web through internet service providers and the moment companies have to treat equally all
3:20 am
online traffic but the us federal communications commission now says that that's preventing websites from investing trillions of dollars into their services now with the regulations gone internet providers will be free to charge a premium to prioritize. and services to smear account reports. well the f.c.c. is latest decision will repeal obama's regulations that were passed in twenty fifteen and as expected the vote was three to two along party lines with republicans voting in favor of the deregulation order and democrats voting against it but one democratic commissioner who voted against the order made her feelings known and had some very fierce for marks for the committee to say the very least i dissent from this rash decision to roll back net neutrality rules i dissent from the corrupt process that has brought us to this point as a result of today's misguided action our broadband providers will get extraordinary new powers. they will have the power to block websites the power to throttle
3:21 am
services and the power to censor online content now our broadband providers will tell you they will never do these things they say just trust us but know this they have the technical delivery and business incentive to discriminate and manipulate your internet traffic now many are outraged understandably so but with all the backlash this could eventually end up going to court and activists might even pressure congress to overturn the vote but this is a partisan issue so would it really have any effect nonetheless these online democracy defenders shouldn't really lose hope because they aren't exactly without allies thirty nine senators sent a letter to the f.c.c. expressing their discontent representative keith ellison he even spoke at today's protest is just to the american people and we are not going to stand by for we're not going to stand here we're going to fight back and we are going to win now with all that being said scrapping net neutrality could very well affect how we surf the
3:22 am
web but is it really the death of the internet like some are saying well that of course remains to be seeing some a very calm that we did discuss with experts the decision and its ramifications. the idea here is that with the removal of net neutrality protections that were passed during the obama administration with those out of the way that big telecoms internet service providers would have the ability to throttle certain web traffic that's the big fear and i think it's a legitimate in the sense of activists and independent media being concerned that they might be pushed out for political reasons and that the i. can affect that now that could potentially in the future lead to the direct blocking of websites some worry today's vote is definitely a step in the wrong direction and i think that what we'll see is that internet service providers can charge more for some companies to get in front of consumers faster or completely block other companies that don't pay so for consumers what that could mean is that prices could go up as their favorite service providers are
3:23 am
forced to pay more the only people that have their control networks right now are the ones that are going to be able to charge more and just have more control and those billions in million dollar industries will have even more control over what you and i see and you are mine. now before we go deciding which decoration to put on top of your christmas tree didn't used to be a straightforward affair either or perhaps a star or an angel but not anymore this famous faces and getting involved.
3:24 am
take your pick that's the news from i hear a nazi will back with more on the topic. here's what people have been saying about redacted a knighthood to us exactly just full on awesome well the only show i go out of my way to find you know a lot of the really packs a punch just leave yampa is the john oliver of hearty americans do the same we are apparently better than nothing better said i see people you never heard of love
3:25 am
redacted the night my president of the world bank so ok you're going to write me seriously send us an e-mail join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. credit is one of the basic instruments to drive an economy but it can also lead to tragedy i did. just i came to god and meant that the debts. and. many lives have been broken excessive to the banks going to. the bank but i didn't think of the ordinary man the. morning is a back handed down by creditors people see no future that fades from happening you
3:26 am
know you become ill you're going to job your relationship breaks down you become a casualty is death a life long or is there a way out those actually come to know would be right to do to build more risk and more. hello and welcome across talk we're all things are considered peter lavelle it would seem the more the anti trampers push to have the president removed from office the more we learn about the media in such places as the f.b.i. how they really work to date the investigation known as russia gate has revealed preciously little though we're learning there was collusion elsewhere.
3:27 am
across talking real collusion i'm joined by my guest richard goodstein in washington he is a democratic political strategist and a former adviser to hillary clinton's two presidential campaigns in miami we have john cardillo he is host of off the cuff. in rebel media and in phoenix we cross to josh bernstein he is a t.v. talk show host or a chilling cross-like rules in effect that means he can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate josh i'm going to go to you first because one of my one of the crosstalk rules as always go to the person that got up early is for this program and that is you want to talk about some of the things that's coming out of the the f.b.i. in the in the special investigation into. alleged collusion with russia during the election we have this peter stroke you know and he has written some you know with his girlfriend some pretty nasty things about donald trump you know he's. he's an
3:28 am
a.t.m. . nuisance ease a menace what you know all these kind of thing that's fine that's fine you can have an opinion like that but when you have something like this i want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in andy's office presumably that's and you may cave there is there's no way he gets elected but i am afraid we can't take the risk it's like an insurance policy in an unlikely event that you're going to die before forty i mean that that's more than just saying you don't like someone calling somebody a creep or something like that that sounds like. you've got a plan and you've got power and you're going to make things happen behind the scenes how do you read that josh well i think i read this as the elites and the deep state and the globalists they all expected hillary clinton to be the next president united states but the american people thought otherwise and they voted overwhelmingly to make donald trump the forty fifth president of the united states
3:29 am
for for rod rosenstein to say with a straight face and any testimony it truly is i mean if you look at and i'm calling it collusion g.p.s. but if you look at fusion g.p.s. and you see all the things that have happened from bruce or and nellie or being part of that organization then you have the fact that they were having secret meetings approved or had secret meetings with the people at fusion g.p.s. with go. and simpson and of course with christopher steele the one who planted the fake russian dossier it is absolutely incredible why the justice department is not putting a special prosecutor on robert mueller to investigate iranian one n. fusion g.p.s. is beyond all recognition i can't even imagine why that is not happening the only thing i can think of his maybe jeff sessions is compromised in some respect these are i mean it at the very least these are uncomfortable things that have been revealed that have been during the election in the transition here i mean the frame
