i dispute that they gave praise to the journalist or his journalist i pointed out that standing out in the field and continuing to talk while explosions they were not all around you is brave she still admires is bravery though the mainstream media has a history of becoming in chanted by jihadi affiliated want to be reporters take beloved all karim the story teller when it came to the battle for aleppo people executed it's as simple as that what can i do here in syria blend in the crowd i don't think so am i going to turn my so over to the regime forces absolutely no so what that he's giving a platform to a suicide bomber right at least he's taking all the right boxes they say you have to protect human rights. they support the terrorism so how on earth. of ports human rights supporter of that's that's the bottom line of the hippocratic they have double standards if this happens in the

u.s. mainland would they accept terrorists to be available terrorist organizations. to say they have good cause of course not the mainstream media has a habit of putting itself on a journalistic pedestal getting the facts right giving balance and using trusted sources but those standards appear to be selective and only if the story fits the cover you've done of r.t. the fighting in syria is no concentrated did live province the only major arab country still held by rebel forces because exclusive video for you next we've obtained from the area of government troops battling. that's the al qaeda affiliate for me no.

i'm. not sure from germany so we brought you last where police in berlin cordoned off for a while and historic square there in the city center after a bomb scare now the alarm was raised after abandoned briefcase was found that was all the time we rarely see these pictures check this out with europe of course still on high alert especially that city after the christmas market terror attack just over a year ago this what you're seeing here is the everyday work just one brave person think it's a guy i don't know maybe the lady just over an hour ago still being the surroundings

about thirty minutes but then having so carefully the closer and closer to this and then eventually having to open it turns out it appears to have been a false alarm you know people could be forgetful but look at the amount of effort that goes into making sure we're safe to back up team as well he she the public's been asked through made a way for that area until the investigation is completed as a say turned out to be a false alarm for a brave guy. a german children's t.v. channel is causing controversy by airing a documentary about the relationship between a syrian man and his german girlfriend critics say it fails to challenge the repression of women you know your own money here's a quick clip for you. stuff i cannot wear short things always long things these kinds of hours i cannot accept my wife looking like this this is very difficult for me and for arab men in general i do not like other guys talking to my girlfriend she belongs to me i belong those are my rules. does doesn't mean we can't eat pork

this is forbidden. this is interesting it's what's written in the qur'an it's now katie it it is not normal meat and so i ask do i really have to eat pork to well since we will have to live together i stopped eating it one concerned parents who describes herself as a qualified psychologist has written an open letter over this no calling the program an attack on the emancipation of women she says the channels portraying a repressive relationship in a positive light we got reaction from two guests with opposing views on the program . in multan western european society and certainly in germany there are a lot of stories migrants have lots of stories there are lots of different realities nowadays we're in a climate changing realities so you know if we have stories about young syrian people whether they're young adults whether the mine is who are mixing with into

mingling with living lives alongside germans or other europeans i think we should be taught to tell these stories as long as those stories are not. seeding discontent hate breeding or trying to be divisive i don't think it's the role of the government or a government agency to to work the children against continuing the values and cultures of their parents i don't have a problem with a mosque or a private organization pushing this sort of thing but you know what kind of taxpayer wants to have his values denigrated and subverted with his own children by the people he's paying and that is the primary you see this. is in life and death all the resettling in resettling into the west now you don't get to stop the world and just say i want to get off you when you see like a real thing or idea you said at the top of the hour i believe it was

a lie right that guy pretended to be sixteen he wasn't sixteen so the kids were like two from the very start so you have seven and eight year olds who are watching this romantic thing i'm not even sure that was appropriate ok and so let's start there this is not really about the ages of those people it's not really about freedom of expression or journalism this is actually about saying look at these we had muslims and brown people with funny views and pushing no it isn't oh sessions on a vulnerable young this is a i don't even know if this is a real romance this contrived romance. was being deliberately sold to these kids as a way of undermining our setting the table for the undermining of maybe what i believe are the intentions of the parents parents have a right to continue their family legacies and their culture and this undermines it on the taxpayer dime police offices in new york city a taking legal action against the city's leaders full releasing video to the public

because of a lot more after the break. some animal rights activists are just upset that we eat meat period which makes no sense by the way because animals eat other animals and we're supposed to be equal with animals but suddenly they don't want to humans eating other animals so in a sense they're saying that animals have the right to eat other animals but humans don't have a right to eat other animals even though they think we're all equal so some of there's a logical inconsistency there. everybody i'm steven both. hollywood guy. proud american first of all i'm just george bush and r.v. . this is my buddy max famous financial guru just a little bit different. with all the drama happening in our country i'm

shooting the brood have fun every day americans. look to the store to bridge the gap this is the great american. to the fallout over those highly disparaging remarks apparently donald trump reportedly made about the number of central american african countries continues to grow during a run to the oval office the president allegedly branded them in crude terms we're not going to say here second rate countries and the someone pointed out to make matters worse the timing was particularly unfortunate trump's former rival hillary clinton drew attention three quickly to the fact that the comments came on the eight year anniversary no less of the devastating earthquake in haiti which killed

more than two hundred thousand people. she added that the president is racist and ignorant and that he should be paying respect to the people of the caribbean nation rather than purportedly he denies it though saying what he did now one c.n.n. anchor even became quite emotional in his response to trump's alleged remarks here . i was there. when a five year old boy named monley was rescued after being buried for more than seven days it's a dignity many in this white house could learn from its indignity the president with all his money and all his power could learn from this well. he well even before being hit by the earthquake which also severely damaged the comfort his country's infrastructure left and able to provide many basic services for a long time hated been blighted by hundreds of years of hardship the pain goes deep there after getting independence from france the beginning of the eight hundred

then took the u.s. sixty years to acknowledge its independence and during that time it opposed to trade embargo on haiti its development was also blighted by huge debts france demanded from it following the independence of the twentieth century haiti was also occupied by u.s. marines for almost two decades too so this is as you can see not going down well let's discuss this with african affairs expert johnson on the line there hey thanks tom how do you interpret the president's alleged we must say because he denies it remarks that especially given the role the u.s. has played in many of those countries the let's talk haiti first well disappointing very sad and very confusing and many americans will be wondering what on earth is going on president trump has showed us previously and again this time around that he's really an exception against all persons that have common ground in the past he's clearly different he speaks in fashions that people can truly understand and of course these remarks very upsetting for all black people around the world and of course actually saying that the haitians in the in the in the manner you describe

them really really upsetting and i think it shows that he doesn't seem to understand that many of the problems that the haitians are experiencing in their own country stems from many of the confusion that the u.s. has imposed on that country. taking control of the country imposing sanctions or actually the effect that some of the companies that had on the haitian people and of course you must number that many haitians actually traveled to the u.s. in large numbers seeking opportunities are how on earth can a president like this say such words and to express that claims not only haitians but many africans as well across the african continent very very sad very disappointing and truly wrong this is the headline every day from president trump what he said what he hasn't said what you think the scandal is going to go do you think will be much more blowback from it all is similar. well no no i don't think this will simmer out because he's called the entire continent in the words that he

uses that expressly very very limited and i think africans are not going to forget this understand clearly how the u.s. president thinks about them and of course at a time when many of the superpowers are trying to gain african influence what a time for the americans to be trying to speak in these sort of terms i would expect that the u.s. administration and its many more national companies will suffer in some shape or form at the expense of the russians at the expense of the chinese and many other investors who are looking for better opportunities to work with africans who they respect clearly the americans don't because trump is trying to excuse this if he had said it by saying if he hadn't said it at all it was the democrats trying to stir it up here to what extent is trouble making the situation worse by denying those comments that somebody in that very room said they actually are their own is doesn't really matter with trump we've heard it so many times we've seen so many ways ways express himself in fashions that would shock individuals many have makes me question his mental health i think this is not going to change not going to

shape or change anything i thought and many people around the world are concerned he said those things he's capable of saying those things and in the future he will continue to say those things so this is just an example of the man for which we've got to come to used to really. johnson african affairs expert and founder of viewpoint africa a lot of angry people of these alleged comments on the things from much. of new york's largest police union suing its own commissioner and the city's ministration over the release of body cam videos. this footage has serious implications not only for the safety in g. process rights of police officers before the privacy and rights of members of the public as well so the union here claim with the release of these kind of videos from offices body cameras is basically a breach of citizens' bridges adding that the administration uses quote arbitrary and inconsistent parameters and is guarded by political considerations one case in

point an incident last september when a man was shot after pulling a toy gun that police and that video was released despite fears it could jeopardize an ongoing investigation on former officers who blew the whistle on police activities believes the current system allows videos to be used for crucially political gain i don't think it's an all of a sudden decision if you actually read the lawsuit in the very first paragraph is states clearly what it wants and all it's asking for in the gist of the complaint is for these body camera videos not to be used selectively for political gain there that's that's all that it's asking for to asking for a better system for these to be disseminated out into the public and as of right now the two people that the complaint is listing against for seemingly abusing the authority is for murder blasio and the police commissioner itself so the complaint says that it why it's just not selective you videos being removed

last year three body cam videos released by the new york police department two of them showed officers shooting and killing suspects one local news channel paid thirty six thousand dollars to show additional footage of it the union says the videos are selected to make a point that they could be from years ago but now they're being used to highlight current issues and what he was coming up you may find distressing. i understand her better. to have. her.

she think. three point three zero. zero zero zero zero to. find out what. you're seeing police officers being pawns in political games or get political games

and they need to be protected they're in the middle buffer between the laws the law makers the people they're supposed to patrol and police the laws over and then their body camera usage their squad car video footage is all being used either for them or against them as a as a pawn moving game and it's just not fair i will let you know that story progress as you have a track of all. all of our stories in our letter up as well for the new year if we haven't got it yet our next live update from you from moscow in thirty minutes or more great shows lined up for you right after this quick break i'm kevin o. in for now thanks for watching r.t. international. had a great education a good job and a family that loved me. i never had to worry about how i would eat somewhere i would sleep. i'm facing christmas alone out on the streets of london. oh you look

fabulous. i cut the color you like you go to school you know the slogan still give out food for the hope. that you don't really feel like a human being in that. and then. the guy just came over to me saw me and gave me this book.

young children have worked in bolivia for generations almost three quarters of a million a doing so today. this culture led to the development of the libya's new liberal and highly controversial children's code in two thousand and fourteen which gave children as young as ten the right to work under certain circumstances what is a new thing this. is all news. but without the end all. the things years. but there are hundreds of thousands of children in bolivia operating completely outside the local.

mining work is strictly forbidden by the children but it's never in force and that means the school boy minus here continue risking their lives for the money they need to survive on. empanel everything that happens inside panama the cia knows about it in order for us intel agencies that's one thing. this company was legal was stablished recognized etc everybody knew that they were allowed free money for a lot of the characters but they were doing it in a let's see in the semi legalized the way let's put it this way. the movie

will put all the what we. know he's you know. here a pretty good numbers on my own up here. and . somewhat of a loaded gun to a local movie just one of them will be what will. i do for a local mall we think you'll feel. sort of the most out of the we're going to see you. must

like fun seconds business of setting up and selling off shore companies began to thrive in much ninety six. when romana yoga much there. a year later it was one of the first animal companies to open a branch in the british virgin islands perhaps the world's most renowned tax haven . fund sector offered its super rich clients a wide choice of tax havens around the world. number of offices increased every year. on fake as criminal exposure is as a result of the scylla taking bribery and corruption. in one nine hundred ninety four. helps small polynesian island to become an offshore zone. the company was given exclusive rights to establish new firms in the country by two thousand and one the panamanian offshore giant was transferring over one point five million dollars a year to news coffers. mentions

a densely is almost the same as the country's entire annual budget. but what was the secret behind most our concept of success block out work by the founders or close links with the authorities i know from my own sources who have worked for the central intelligence agency that they did use mossad for the formation of corporations it's not a scandal. that. you basically are using the most act firm because they're providing services for the for the intelligence agencies of the world as do a lot of large law firms in many countries. around the country of almost became the second watergate for the united states. in one nine hundred eighty five the cia with israel's mediation began to supply weapons to iran. the sale proceeds were diverted to support rebel contras in nicaragua i have

a source who was involved in that operation which you may remember involve the united states. selling arms to iran which was then illegal under international law and taking the profits to support the contras in nicaragua and other illegal matter what made that illegal was the both iran and nicaragua were under international sanctions. numerous social companies were set up that could divert millions of dollars through swiss banks to nicaragua. according to those who voted so i took there was several iran contra affair participants among most fonseka is clients.

once the iran contra story broke it caused a major controversy which almost resulted in ronald reagan's impeachment. the president ronald reagan said i don't remember anything house that you can't remember anything you were part of it you ordered it you authorized it so you see this goes all the way up to the highest ranks in u.s. government journalist and financial expert wolf is shown to find the explanation for such close ties between the cia and the panamanian company you only need to look into the colonial yoga most x. past. know your business and those on the three target as the father of your boss are as i am the chefs fonseca. i envy. him put up with i've given this. the truth about his own father's past is also documents from that unique archives there is for example one declassified f.b.i. report that includes

a copy of the most expression interrogation there have lost the national archives the documents as they did this and the fourth nine hundred forty six. most likely did indeed with the waffen s.s. in france of the former u.s.s.r. in ninety four to two czechoslovakia in forty three then finland the way letting forty four in laos nine hundred forty five was captured by american troops later that year he had a few other prisoners escaped in a stove and truck. most like was detained again in one nine hundred forty six and fell into the cia's hands. the second document is an operational report declassified in one nine hundred ninety seven. the file was redacted in an attempt to make the. as impersonal as possible but nonetheless it is evident that from nine hundred sixty one persistently tried to establish contact with u.s. military intelligence officers in panama. city awake on a ham i no longer lug

a big field of course i'm way conjugate. through it with. the nuts and although that is the part i owned ought to be included in. the desperate as if you like i like it when i buy him a lot of. the big question is why was a former waffen s.s. man later allowed to enter the united states the answer seems obvious erhard must change signs up to the wall. and was on a post-war list of people held by american intelligence agencies. if the intelligence services were indeed involved in the most exxon sec atrix the hunt for the panama documents cotto followed the best traditions of a hollywood action movie.

down. god forbid any journalists take home this single paper. but if the cia had been on seconds patna winded one of the world's most influential intelligence agencies know to save the company from the panama scandal. financial expert bradley the film does not rule out the possibility of the company simply became with dump once it served its purpose. to collect compromising information on hundreds of fans of the world's richest and most influential people. and the

problem with panama papers is that. the in this show lease targeted the enemies that did that it states this is the way the cia a offer rates they operate in a scheme in which they tried to undermine their enemy with information that will either embarrass them or destroy their career after the turn of the century most like fun seconds business didn't go as smoothly as it had before. money laundering investigations forced it to shut down its polities a branch then again in both samoa and the british virgin islands the firm already teetering on the brink of bankruptcy which saved a crushing blow from america its company accounts in nevada were frozen the case against masak from second was closed just a month before the problem of all cards went public financial experts wolf believe that even if the cia is behind the intelligence agency was acting in the government's best interests.
