i i. was i was. in the weeks main stories from r.t. anger rage is for a second week in the wake of donald trump's decision to recognize jerusalem as israel's capital clashes between palestinians and israeli police caused deaths and injuries. firstly opposing kickstarts the withdrawal of russian troops from syria during a surprise visit after a minute chief declare isis defeat in the country. a damning human rights condemns the complicity in the peace and exploitation of trying to reach europe from libya.

are welcome have the latest developments and a look back at what's been happening over the last seven days to new watch and weekly here an r.t. international now deadly violence between palestinians and israeli security forces still shows little sign of abating it follows donald trump's incendiary decision early this month to recognize the disputed city of jerusalem as israel's capital. i don't think. it's right up until those bonds that are feeling the place.

we understand the phrase out and tensions are in the. making. it is a job well throughout the wake county has been hearing impassioned reaction to the resurgence of violence in the region people can open the bible and to count how many times jerusalem is in danger and there they will find out told so that jerusalem is not mentioned even one time in the koran not even one time people will find out that jerusalem is the capital of israel since nine hundred forty eight the whole world is condemning this action because simply it's against the international

law it's and against the framework for the peace process is has forfeited the united states for fear that its position as a broker to the peace process and i'll tell you something the israelis have going for palestinians in the past two days in peaceful protests while no israeli was killed there was an injury in an attack in jerusalem everything is a lie first everything my appalling says is a lie there were three terror. killed in gaza strip which has nothing to do with the protests here because gaza strip they fired rockets and they forget about it they just forget that they fire rockets at israeli kindergarten when people who are followers of hijab in that whole say name hitler skull operator of the ring cycle of world war those who created fatah before nine hundred sixty seven to destroy israel when this resist the said personalities common to teach us morality listen

come on it cannot be defended themselves why they are illegally on somebody else's land that is unacceptable what they done what they do and what i have been doing since one thousand nine hundred seven is an aggression and with your other guests this radical has never been to your land never been the old landing here syria there was a land they were born in russia donald trump. kept his promises and his trying to do in his best way are grateful but the issues not donald trump they issue as these people go around. in a says europeans russians americans and we are here in the middle east the only democracy of the only all the only really a light in a very dark environment while reaction to president has reverberated throughout the muslim world where leaders have lambasted his quote no one for decision the

organization of islamic cooperation convened an emergency session in turkey on wednesday calling for the international community to recognize since jerusalem is the palestinian capital. because of the great. historical and current. importance i want to point out to ignore some of the distortions in. the united states to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel is a dangerous one it will threaten security and stability restraints efforts to resume the peace process the president as he has ever been must be taken to prevent him from the street to take such an outrageously surprising to us well despite heavy criticism from arab leaders and also european allies president saying un concerned. expects. well it's now the time of year in which israel celebrates

hanukkah and this comes after donald trump we a very happy one will go down as one as far as actually praising himself for the all but controversial move his point his predecessors only made promises where he actually delivered. jerusalem is still the capital of israel and most remain unknown divided city accessible questions that take office i will begin the process of moving the united states ambassador to the city in israel and shows. i continued to say that. jerusalem will be the capital of israel so why is tom so gleeful about his decision as the international community praised him for it nope very dangerous decision we do know and agree clearly disagree these decisions are helpful from the european union member states sites this move will not come so is it what the american people want well not according to this poll taken ahead of trump's

decision sixty three percent of americans say that they oppose the move but it's popular in israel right well not with all israelis they think of only friends leaving you as i am they. are in much greater risk than they were with i think it will because of. people dead and. violence i think it was a reckless this season and it takes less time to announce it is like a man who was playing in a coma defeated or in the. in gangster for films so he's taking us through storm suddenly in this shooting oh my friends tell me it's a day he announced that they're pretty much scared to to go but the drizzling because they don't know how it's going to be and they're scared to leave the house says but trump did win over some of his harsh critics in the democratic camp. jerusalem is the capital of the state of israel something the united states congress has reaffirmed enough. of history that cannot be tonight. i support the

decision to recognize jerusalem as the eternal capital of israel and to move the us embassy to this decision is long overdue and helps correct a decades long indignity there may be benefits for him personally you may be the tipping his hat to his base and saying you know this is a campaign promise that i made he sees it more important for his personal legacy for his supporters to do this regardless of its effect on world opinion regardless of its effect on the united states and world opinion and regarding the suffix on the palestinian. people the world is not happy with the move america is not happy with the move but donald trump thinks it's terrific a year ago at his inauguration donald trump said that from here forward it would be america first well it's starting to look like maybe it's trunk first. r.t.

new york well during the unrest there was a rare sight in bethlehem when an elderly woman decided enough was enough stepping in to try and break up some street thought it's. the russian troops are returning home from syria after president putin announced it was mission accomplished during a surprise visit to a base there on monday the unannounced visit was the russian leaders first trip to the country payton told military personnel at the latakia red base their work was complete after the russian defense ministry had earlier declared islamic state was now defeated in syria. i mean you don't know but only to the defense minister and

the head of your general staff start to draw all of the russian forces to their permanent legacy if you will for a terrorist to raise their heads again we will strike back with the strength remember seen before so here's a quick timeline then of events in twenty fifteen when islamic state was on the rise and controlled half of syria damascus arse for moscow's help in the fight against the extremists using syrian intelligence the russian air force launched surgical strikes on terrorist positions and that did deal a significant blow against isis infrastructure one of the main reasons for the campaign success many other forces of also joined efforts to liberate cities and land. can. you.

believe that you do. the. level. of. the. well although the defeat of isolate is a common think street it does seem to be one country trying to steal the show perhaps his and he now is thoughts on that everyone's taking credit for ridding syria of isis meester but on the loose to get out soon was bush and you know something to be with for the solution i believe it was a great job russia but not everyone is give you props i want to thank general madness for doing such a great job with respect to isis he's not the hell out of home. myself made it

possible with what i'd let you do i think check your sources russia the top of the far north of the. level you see you support the levy to a call today some mr paul. did. it because you can but but you do you like it if you know you want to. keep all the us move long they deal could be validation and see you only join the war two years ago by invitation from the president and are already claiming victory us and stayed in power that's a total loss as far as we see it true wins mean the fall of ruthless dictators. triumphant victories over evil and a long stay after the battle is over russia is already pulling out troops well now we should keep in mind that the u.s. played in porton role in combat in the terrorist sometimes by simply giving

moderate rebels arms and training or for example when they let thousands of isis terrorists flee iraq or to battle the site in syria under a secret u.s. approved deal america has nothing didn't work keep bragging about your lawmakers the ex agreed to fifty tend to be faults and months and months to try and defeat the growth of the european union although the polaroid opposition leader jeremy corbin here said m.p.'s delivered a humiliating loss of authority for the government and that power is now back in the hands of parliament despite the prime minister earlier claiming the government's strategy was on track. there is i believe a new sense of optimism now in the top and i mean i. don't expect that we will confirm the arrangements set out in the european account later this week well juries in may may have secured

a better result in the house of commons had she not lost her party's majority in the snap election gamble earlier this year she only managed to stay in power with a one billion pound deal to secure parliamentary support from m.p.'s from the northern irish democratic party political writer plays brooks says to reason they can no longer overlook the deep divisions within her own party. yes a humiliation and has starkly governments don't tend to last very long after after they get defeated at the hands of their own backbenchers to i think it shows that think that the government the government is really up for grabs really demonstrates how insincere the conservatives were in their promise that they would. vote on the final deal to parliament because if they were sincere why would they be so determined even at the risk of a parliamentary to defeat to resist making this into a legally binding commitment this is the first defeat let alone a completely mine to jeremy call the labor because he because although on the labor

side jeremy corbyn famously for bricks of most of his political career has differences within his own body the conservative worry is split very much split over bricks it itself and to resume thought that you could fudge the issues and somehow make a deal between different rival factions or own party and tonight it's it's failed it's clear that european leaders will see this is only weakness there's no doubt that if you pay that kind of money to stay in power and can't win critical votes over the future of the united kingdom you're in big big trouble. just coming up to twenty past eight here in moscow you're watching the weekly now in a report released on tuesday amnesty international accuses european governments of condoning the detention and abuse of migrants trying to reach europe from libya we believe they knowingly complicity in a system of abuse and torture of refugees and migrants in p.b.x.

because they know exactly what is going on there and they have chosen to support. a system of detention and that view of migrants without. placing any safeguards and with more on these accusations has. last year e.u. member states launched a series of measures aimed at cutting off the central mediterranean route through libya but to report by amnesty international says that these steps are in fact actively supporting a system of exploitation and abuse of the vulnerable people they should be helping and they have video evidence to back their claims to these are rescue boats that even countries supplied to the libyan coast guard to intercept migrants at sea honesty says that this is the moment someone that had been rescued was thrown overboard and towed along the sea while here we see someone else being whipped.

thank you it was she was sick of. my. was my. this particular boat was donated by italy i can april and was handed over to the libyan coast guard in a ceremony attended by the italian interior minister who'd have thought it would one day be the focal point of accusations of human rights violations and then there's the detention center after being rescued at sea migrants are taken to these facilities run by the libyan department for combat saying illegal migration with the full support of e.u. countries in the words of amnesty is heya that they are exposed to

a soul destroying cycle of exploitation and it's a cause for what reason thought uprising to all our present is also a business in libya to kill some people this or some people would be something we did the potential. for to it's. the use going to be tossed out finished it's going to be tossed before so as to snoop it was sort of water to drink for limited to us and. a level of abuses. these people leaving feel. there is no will or food that provided that unless you can pay for it would be reviewed several people who. decided that the way to all change the why their families were on the phone in order to extort the money for the torture to stop and for them to be released that. and this is just the ordinary daily life in the sense that the rights group wants european gun. to rethink that

cooperation with libya when it comes to migration is that if they continue to support libyan or thora te's european governments are laying bare what their true priority is putting the closure of the central mediterranean route before the welfare of the little people. here reporting will meanwhile in its own report the european commission has evaluated the block's programs in libya stressing the need to tackle smuggling and human trafficking in the country it does go on to say though the efforts have had a strong human rights component and are being conducted in cooperation with the un refugee agency but we did get in touch with several institutions over the allegations against e.u. governments including the italian foreign ministry one reply we did get was from the un secretary general step the spokes person and he expressed concern over the situation in libya and stressed the need for the proper resettlement of migrants

and we also heard from oxfam too which says that while it can't comment on amnesty's findings its own information does indicate the report holds water oxfam adds that to stop irregular migration at all costs the e.u. has sacrificed people's safety and well being violating the obligations of respect and protection and the protection of human rights that's a view shared by international relations professor larsen. if you're getting a number of reports from credible sources including u.n. agencies that there are a systematic abuses there it is and i think it's clear that there are italy has to do in the european union has to say well we're not going to send these people back to libya and we're going to find some way to give them a cease haven whether they're whether or not they are economic migrants or if you choose isn't is not right that countries major powers. destabilize the situation

and then later on complained. there are mass migration movements from or another difficulty. two police officers in the u.s. city of cincinnati are accused of using excessive force after tasering suspects during a domestic dispute inquiry body cam video of the incident that happened early this year has only just surface please be aware though that the following clip does graphically show what happened. very very. the officers confronted two men inside the house tasering them without prior indicating they were going to rest one of the men suffered from a collapsed lung as a result of the confrontation a complaint was filed but the county's prosecutors prevented the officers from being interviewed or since the year two thousand over one thousand people have died in the us after being stunned with with tasers by police nine out of ten were also

unarmed a number of those tasered also suffered from a mental illness concerns of police abuse of 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 through. a recovered like physically but mentally on the. heart of think about still even though it's been one year. it's repeatedly did it over and over and over two days and two they just kept

telling me that there was not going to be a bomb on the. car for wrongfully. the way they were laughing. and pretty much having fun with it. i was afraid that they were going to try and kill me. well the lawyer who represented george norris during his case told us the police's actions 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 it in other news this week new york narrowly avoided a terror attack on monday after a botched attempt to detonate an explosive device at a subway station near times square police detained a suspect who along with three other people sustained non-life threatening injuries york's governor says the suspect was influenced by groups like islamic state i would say influence i don't like the competition of the word inspired but influenced by these groups so the video captured the botched attack flash can be seen here followed by a cloud of white smoke and people fleeing and there's the smoke plays

a person is then seen lying on the ground. new york police identified the suspect is twenty seven year old a card they say he had tied a low tech explosive device to his body which badly injured him when he went off just a month ago the city had enjoyed its deadliest attack since nine eleven. i . just received probably been planning this for a number of week who did this in the name of isis. the junior state senator richard black believes the terror attacks are now a sad fact of modern life. to some extent people are just accepting the fact that

we live in a world of terror we never had terrorist attacks in the united states for you know for a hundred years and then all of a sudden we have them almost on a weekly basis it's not just in the united states is happening in europe. everywhere that opens its borders and allows people. who who arrive with with they often with a religious belief that they have to play be inhabitants of the country it's inevitable that you're going to have that we have very radical mosques function in this country and murder in europe and they literally preach hate and they say look go out you know it's your duty to to murder people and they go out and they do it and sometimes it takes many years some of these people are not even religious

and then they you know they have a religious conversion later on and if they go to one of these bad mosques then then the next thing that you have is a is a suicide bomber. you've been watching the weekly here now is the international good to have you company this morning don't forget you can keep across all the stories take. six geysers by the national survival guide. customers go buy your justified. good

elf well read you somehow or. that's undercutting but what's good for markets it's not good for the global economy. here's how it started with u.s. households sinking every deeper into debt encouraged by the government and the banks to take out mortgages even those who did not have the means to do so. until the day the bubble burst this is.
