starts in accounts in an attempt to combat hate speech but it's accused of being selective over the profiles it's. a battle between the german and teeth of movement and police seized the two sides crossing swords again this time publishing shaming photos of their adversaries. a polish looks to sue. in the u.k. over a sign banning people from eastern europe. i don't create a new government enters into a row with italy for its offer to grandpas hordes of people in south to roll opens old wounds.

your world headlines on the hour every hour welcome to it this is the international . twitter has implemented new rules in an attempt to combat hateful and abusive behavior on its platform but it's been accused of being selective over the callouses decided to purge his art with more details. the twitter purge the social network has launched its campaign to root out hate speech we will require offending tweets to be removed and repeated violations will result in poem and suspension among the first to go offline the account of the far right u.k. political group britain first known for offensive anti muslim posts as well as personal pages of its leaders paul golding and his deputy j. to franzen donald trump came under fire for retreating her anti muslim post last month so far terms pages still up and running the white supremacist magazine american renaissance and its editor were also put it off along with the american nazi party space age. racist and discriminatory accounts like these surely have to

be shut down but the problem is so far the punishments don't seem to be being doled out with an even hand something clearly shown by the number of users who recently posted scores of death threats and promises of violence to the federal communications commission chief over his campaign to scrap net neutrality in the us this user employed both racist terms and call for violence but the account is still active another tweet laying out a desire to kill pie is still readily available and it goes on from there active account school or fine and inciting violence even his wife and children were named and attacked and the past pie in self is called twitter out as one of the problems with an open internet company usually goes when it comes to your mind service users believe. this is not a. good this is playing right. now twitter has admitted it will make mistakes in the quest to make the platform

a safer place but so far its hate purge seems more than a little messy and on even the people at twitter just like other social media platforms are under tremendous pressure because they just see themselves as sort of neutral players but in reality twitter is an active participant in the political process on the side of the left hateful speech i just i just don't know where i don't even know where that begins and ends and it it seems like it's always up to someone else what what hate is just hate speech in and of itself the phrase itself is always used against conservatives it's never really you never hear about hate speech from the left the restrictions are always on conservatives never on liberals and so i don't i don't take any effort to sort of police twitter or facebook seriously as a fair exercise. in germany the left wing and tea for movement has published online

the photos of police officers it claims have used excessive force at the move was a tit for tat response after police published photos of anti for activists suspected of breaking the law. takes a closer look at the continued animosity between the two. these days the german police don't have the greatest of relationships with the far left the pontiff but the latter have certainly stepped up their tactics of late following the hunt for hamburg t twenty protesters were in new commitments of fights against the states and teeth are published photographs of fifty four police offices on a website saying that date was in the wrong for last year's massive diction here in berlin. it wasn't the new signal or the money that. was.

was was . was. was putting out these photos was revenge. for the police releasing over one hundred images of people they want to speak to in connection with the hamburg g twenty protests in summer comes we encourage those who can provide relevant information who can identify offenders from the photos to contact us so the suspects are investigated. then myself and the on t.v. crew saw what was happening up close to the police and protest as complements chancing away that on sci fi she's the build of on sci fi

a chance going on all under the watchful eye if we move the camera over here over the watchful eye of a lot of police officers i think. this all comes as the german cops are facing an investigation into whether they used excessive force in hamburg allegations are they used military weapons that aren't allowed in domestic policing the fighting between police and demonstrators this summer in hamburg was hardly the best advertisement for germany but it does seem that some of those battles a continuing to be for peter all of us. we spoke with martin dolt

a member of hamburg's parliament who believes both sides are using tactics of war only increased tensions if you put the pictures of demonstrators and the internet which can be used by everyone it's not a way to solve a conflict and it's not a way to soften conflict as well to put the pictures of policemen and india internet the only way is to talk and not to try to criminalize either all demonstrators because that indeed. the chief of police and the prosecutors and part of the politicians as well everyone who protested in g twenty had been nearly like a criminal and we can see at the g twenty there was a very escalated police policing strategy that was a problem then there was with her daughter was chief of the police who is well known for its militaristic view on demonstration and that he's not able to do

deescalate of police work it's and this conflicts abuse basic human rights and a law that doesn't lead into nothing but into carlos. who has the right to fish in the u.k. well if you go by this sign at a lake in oxfordshire nobody from eastern european countries and particularly poland. can indulge in the sport about as outraged one polish angler who is now trying to take legal action. to remove the sign but his request was ignored if not responded to a letter from the equality and human rights commission either mr puppy if he claims he's also had no support from the local authorities. the sign has actually been reported to me by remaining and because of money for the last seven years which is education and integration to eastern european migrants they decided to. ask me for help i followed the rules of the went to the police police told me it is nothing to

do with then i have appealed and appealed has been upheld so it means everything in their power to you know to deal with them in human rights commission they keep saying that they only advisory body so they do a part of giving advice you know i for exactly like many other people that if we see that discrimination resign we're going to be able to go to the police and the sign is going to be taken unfortunately. the friend and we have to cooperate within this reality we also tried to get a comment from the fishery however an answer machine says the farm is currently closed mr. what he's calling a crowd just his campaign to fund legal action he's already raised more than eight thousand pounds. it positively actually positively surprised reaction you know i have a lot of positive comments about you know about the fund raising and a lot of comments encouraging me to me and other you know to fight to get this

signed removed if they want to. they more than happy to do so because he's a private line specific group of people wrong thing to do and refuse your services to the person only because he was born in the country this is not how ethical business and this is i'm sure this is even going to. austria has found itself broiled in a row with italy after it offered to grant passports to german speaking people in a region. and it ultimately revived all hostilities. south turold the stunning mounds in this region on the border between italy and austria with the hoffa million residents there it was part of the australian garion empire before four hundred talian controlled around a century guard. the region has two official languages its handy and german puts the last twenty eleven census reveals almost two thirds of german speaking. now the right wing freedom party and member of austria's new ruling coalition is fanning

the flames offering a strain passports to south to relay it to. the people of south that all will be able to apply all strength citizenship from the cows and pigs and. that lazy shoulders last in the proposal as ethnic nationalism at times will move crazy ideas and shameful affront to. the streets chance lays trying to ease the round but is it already too late thank someone south to roll bricks to take. we've always defended their quest of the double citizenship because for us it's very important as a link with our all serene model and. well i some time ago a protest was held at a brown out pass a border crossing with people from the region demanding dual citizenship italian journalist. says the new australian government is simply fulfilling campaign promises. to move faster than government business if you we knew was

that this is a some of the promise is a they've got you're going to be my profession is the easiest to promise to these other was to make these two groups because we were called to the. house was be the minority you know that he really is a part of the brotherhood is the also the citizens and they don't see these things they are both a member of the european union which means there are equal rights in the basket which is very simple so there is no real interest of leaving the child in their citizenship will be more suited it should be good this will not change the status of this to himself and this confluence of the denouncement the feeling by the ministers is he's a good program is that these believe we need to see their support is we are consistent and we do what we have promised you can be but it's not really very

severe if you can listen to b.b.c. news in my according to me is where you want us to work. the next hour here on the program we'll hear more from austria's side of the story you can join us for an interview with. a member of the national council for the freedom party of austria which has been pushing for this. russia fake news and this channel had been up for discussion again this time at a u.k. parliamentary committee hearing that the session didn't go off without some issues . i'm not on twitter because life's too short it's the same you're not less. used to say we just would like to offer the alternative point of view of the connection because he's holed up in the furnace were them to see if. it was the rigor of the others who were at the door but we need to research the. issue of the meeting was widely focused on russia's alleged meddling this time

in the cattle and referendum however when questions were raised about evidence little was said to support the claim around is your evidence that the russian government is seeking to interfere with the outcome of the referendum in catalonia . i don't have evidence i think i get the picture basically what you're saying is that the evidence that you collect around the referendum doesn't show a great deal of the impact that consortium goldman focus that we have we have no no specific. that is that we don't know us here and so on russia i haven't been all that and different themselves following a very similar playbooks. let me now turn to russia russia the defeat and said russia's blatant interference in russian affiliated doctors they were unusually loud for these to praed to spend their democracy and intelligence services were

responsible for the hacking and leaking of information these outlets are key unsplit may made their effort to have a in effect trading propaganda any have said this is actually the crime of the century focus that we have we have no you know this because if you give those who says that a new. business that is set is that we don't know do you believe that any of your companies have identified the full scope of russian active measures on your platform senator our investigation continues so i would have to say no certainly not with certainty. the hour here in the russian capital the united states says it is ready to hold crisis told with north korea but then it says it's also not ready to hold crisis talks with north korea to try to explain.

what the politicians to do something that. they put themselves on the line they did accept the reject. so when you want to be president i'm sure. most somewhat want to be. what's it like to be for us this is what before three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters about how. things should.

thanks for joining us here on r.t. international the united states is prepared to force north korea to abandon its nuclear weapons that's according to the president's national security adviser. stated that while washington would prefer a diplomatic solution to the crisis so washington is not committed to peace we have to be prepared if necessary to compel the denuclearization of north korea were not committed to a peace were committed to a resolution the commons as the u.s. carries out joint drills with south korea. which will host the upcoming winter olympics more than four hundred marines are taking part in the three week long exercise after battles and wrestling in snow the troops paid tribute to the games by skiing with its official logo. in an effort to reduce tensions though the

south's leader said he would be willing to reshow if you will other drills planned for early next year however the us secretary of state said that so far there are zero plans to delay any of that. it is possible for south korea and the us to review the possibility of postponing the exercises i have made such a suggestion to the us and the us is currently reviewing these exercises have been ongoing for many years but they are carried out on a schedule basis we announce them in advance there's no nothing surprising about this. and imo we're no i'm not aware of any plans to change what is scheduled. last week the us secretary of state said his country is prepared to hold crisis talks with north korea whenever it's ready they were later added that pyongyang must quote it's way back to the table we heard from political commentator steve malzberg about the mixed messages washington appears to be sending. well i think i do know

tillerson has play good cop bad cop he's always been the good cop in this scenario and you know whether it's with donald trump or with a master tillerson has always been the one to say you know let's talk we're willing to sit down and then trouble so no we're not and what are you saying and why just say it it's a game to an extent maybe to try to show the president of north korea that. you know we could act both ways we could be willing to sit down with you but if you don't take my offer and and and do what's in the best interests of peace i've got guys surrounding me here who are willing to go the other direction and you better know that. north korea has also retained its place on the list of top threats to america and donald trump's new national security plan the document is meant to reflect his foreign policy priorities however not all of those parts fully translated into the president's words some air con reports. well president unveiled

his national security strategy and it has some pretty impressive goals america is coming back and america is coming back strong with every decision and every action we are now putting america first so the main idea of trumps doctrine strengthening america for the sake of its citizens and if our life but that wasn't it even listen a couple of washington's most dangerous enemies who apparently flee to undermine american interests and who may that be well russia and china forced just goes to show that over half a century has passed and america's enemies haven't changed but what's their crime in two thousand and seventeen. china and russia challenge american power influence and interests attempting to erode american security and prosperity. well clearly russia wasn't very impressed lucita imperialistic spirit to the documents and i'm willingness to let go of the uni polar world in fact the persistent

rejection of a multi-polar world now china wasn't too happy to be listed as one of trump's enemies either ask the us to stop with this quote cold war rhetoric. we urge the us to stop deliberately distorting china and spurn our dated ideas such as a cold war mentality and coalition game otherwise it will hurt others and destroy itself the united states needs i mean me to put it more nicely strategic competitors they are need for the united states to to remaining and to and to be able to muster enough results to maintain to meet i think china and russia understand this and this is also well recognized by many americans but what's interesting is that from stockton accuse russia and china of trying to challenge american hegemony but at the same time asked for their help to contain north korea and what's even more confusing is that trump speech was fairly muted

compared to what was in the official white house document. we also face rival powers russia and china that seek to challenge american influence values and well. we will attempt to build a great partnership with those and other countries but in a manner that always protects our national interest. russia and china determined to make economies less free and less to grow their militaries and to control information and data to repress their societies and expand their influence but has he read the whole dark i can't say that he's read every line in every word he certainly had documents the. the attire is for throughout throughout the process so the national security strategy might seem worrisome to a few but it's not very different from past administrations and what's unique about this particular situation is that the world now has to figure out whether to believe the official government line or from styrene. samir khan r.t.

washington d.c. we spoke with the vice chair of the u.s. libertarian party of enviro he believes charms words typically contradict his actions he's saying one thing when he is on t.v. to get applause and he's writing something different this continuing of trade isolation we're seeing under trump we're seeing it until you ation of all these backwards military policies that's the actual policy like many politicians like any great actor trumpets playing pretend with us he's lying he is simply saying that yeah we're going to bring the troops home but he hasn't done it we're going to stop being involved in four wars but he hasn't done it we're going to start actually spreading american values through trade but he hasn't done it in fact what he has written is the opposite he has written down something that says you know we're going to keep on isolating ourselves we're going to stop the spread of american values and that's exactly what we don't want we want to see an end to trade sanctions so that american values spread we want to see an end to foreign wars so

we can stop creating enemies and also we want to see an end to this spending that those four wars involve so that we can reduce our personal income taxes that's what we want but that is not what we're getting here. the potential future of catalan independence will face a major milestone within twenty four hours when regional elections are held now it's not clear if any pro-war independence party will gain a majority in the elections that were cold by the spanish prime minister on october the twenty seventh that followed a declaration of independence by the cattle and parliament the move prompted madrid to dissolve the region's government and impose direct rule. on this financial no polls can be published a week before voting day however that hasn't stopped one polling company from coming up with its own creative solution.

i. thanks for sharing your wednesday with us here on r.t. international your worldwide headlines continue.

a punch. is the john oliver of r t america is the same. apparently better than. a c. they've never heard of. jack to the next president of the world bank. really. seriously he sent us an e-mail. greetings and salutation well watchers it appears that the congressional investigations into the alleged russian meddling of the twenty six thousand elections is now focused it's great i have sorrow on the former green party two thousand and sixteen presidential candidate dr jill stein yes the washington post and others are now reporting that the senate intelligence committee is looking into dr stein's interactions with r.t. and her attendance of the now infamous r t tenth anniversary dinner back in two

thousand and fifteen where she had the audacity the audacity to sit at a table and have a salad across from the notorious michael f l y n n and russian president vladimir putin i guess with the trump russia collusion train on an expensive taxpayer funded track to nowhere is will our outstanding leaders on capitol hill in their deep state handlers have decided it's time to start tarnishing the reputations of people outside of the trump cobol course they went after the activists comedian next the third party political leader i wonder who they'll go after next maybe me maybe you . but while political time energy and effort continue to be wasted on neil mccarthyist witch hunts and to party grandstanding the very heart and soul of the united states is dying and i'm not just saying that for effect this country and all that it stands for is at critical mass philip alston the un special rapporteur on

extreme poverty and human rights has found that there is cause for international concern after conducting a cross country investigation into the state of poverty inequality and human rights within the united states of america and if that's not bad enough a county commissioner in chicago is now appealing to the united nations to possibly send in peacekeeping teams to help stem the rampant violence choking the poorest parts of the city but hey you know i'm sure our elected officials in there neal mccarthy ben could and they're talking head cheerleaders will find some way to blame russia for it all and they will definitely more than likely positively make sure that i'm considered a traitor for telling you to keep on watching the hawks. if you want to deal with.
