some of the manipulation programs even respond. and try to manipulate the other person and so i mean our intelligence agencies have had this is one of their objectives white papers are generally circulated among contractors who do business with the government so it is a little unusual to see these things out in the public as far as i know the most obvious interpretation would be that this is a pushback against the allegations that have been made consistently for the last eighteen months about so-called russian troll farms influencing elections across the west and it's interesting to see that the languages that they're advertising for are the language of iran and of course north korea and russia so that would be a bit of a sort of give away about which countries they want to be targeting. now donald trump three condemnation worldwide when it was reported on friday that he launched into a foul mouth rant in the oval office about immigrants several democratic lawmakers who were there claim the president was deeply disparaging about people from central
6:31 am
america and africa. uses implicitly strong language. in other countries with express strong. and the majestic. place to stay. but i try to include me. because those supremacist racist expressions like the ones that donald trump. people with nothing to. be shocking shameful comments. from the president united states. sorry but there's
6:32 am
no other word to use racist. to take to twitter surprise surprise to deny that he used those actual words but admitted that the language he did use in the meeting was tough there was another shot of twitter diplomacy on thursday when he announced he was canceling next month's visit to britain he was due to open the new u.s. embassy in london but pulled out he says over the cost. of the new building but it's thought there's more to it that says. reports this is what all the who is about is the new u.s. embassy in the area of nine elms which is being regenerated in sort of an embassy quarter. to the public next week donald trump was supposed to arrive in february or it was widely expected that you'd be cutting the ribbon that that's not happening any more clearly the old building of the u.s. embassy on that was on this sort of grand old square in the very heart of the city in the center of mayfair which many people know is the most expensive location on
6:33 am
the monopoly board. but the interesting thing about the president's tweets is that there was a slight error and he accused the obama administration of selling not old building for peanuts it was in fact the bush administration before him and there have been suggestions that this whole embassy rao is a way of saying attention away from the fact that perhaps the president didn't feel like he was going to be particularly welcome in the u.k. almost two million people has signed a petition against him coming here claiming perhaps the most british reason a rule that it would embarrass the queen donald trump arriving here and the mare of london hasn't been too welcoming either take a listen to what city khon has had to say about donald trump it appears that president trump got the message from the many londoners who love and admire america
6:34 am
and americans but find his policies in action the polar opposite of our cities values this just reinforces what a mistake it was for it's a reason to rush and extend an invitation of a state visit in the first place. well donald trump did kind of appear at the new embassy it does look realistic enough doesn't it but it's actually a waxwork and it got a laugh too from construction workers and the odd passer by the statue is from london's madame tussauds museum which couldn't resist the marketing opportunity we spoke to a senior local labor party official who says it is clear that trump canceled because he's worried about facing protests. we know that it's because he was going to face you know huge protests when he came here he's a deeply unpopular man. and there were going to be hundreds of thousands maybe a million people on the street this is the kind of pressure the donald trump would be facing if he came over here and he doesn't have the spine to take that you know he as soon as someone insults him he's straight on twitter i don't think it's going
6:35 am
to alienate his support base you know there are a lot of angry people out there and trump has manipulated that anger into into a support base and he's been wholly disingenuous about it but he has managed to whip up a lot of just content about the drawbacks of globalization how globalization is not working for everyone there are some left by people and those left behind people flocked around truck well this week the u.s. was also called to account in europe to their new ambassador to the netherlands has come under fire from journalists it is very thin the news conference there he refused to defend previous remarks on the influence of i saw in europe and he's not the only one trying to avoid the press. good question for. you should you say that i know readers that you should know last year to say this is a book about something you believe your piece did not do this is.
6:36 am
why don't you i'm sort of what i'm sort of course you know this is not how this works or this is going to happen and you have to i'm from scratch and. we're going to use cluster weapons and you know and this is like the question you just poke you in your life but i guess there are no yes. both up and down the hour. he wants and we can hear or not he said i had a false alarm missile threats people in hawaii running for cover this weekend we'll tell you how it happened after the break.
6:37 am
i think there is indeed a potential to come out of this impasse of implementing mr grievance by. the piece operation this is very sensitive politically contributing countries to believe in chile offer troops it's off to decide. to have confidence to have small. 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. welcome
6:38 am
back now there was widespread panic on the u.s. pacific islands of hawaii on saturday over an official of the telling people to run for cover because of a ballistic missile threat although it did turn out to be a false alarm people were sent text messages and t.v. broadcasts were interrupted to raise the alarm within minutes though officials did scramble to reassure people that there was in fact no threat a local congresswoman tweeted there is no incoming missile the message was sent out inadvertently but locals were already rushing by that time for safety for some trying to take shelter in storm drains the governor why. he even apologized for the
6:39 am
incident and blamed it on an employee pushing a button by mistake well the early warning system was reinstated as tensions between the u.s. and north korea the governor is now calling for deescalation in the crisis earlier in the week the two koreas held their first official talks in more than two years called by many in the story meeting given the current political climate art is more against you is following developments. it went well which is rare to hear these days when it comes to the korea's one north korea agreed to send a delegation to the winter olympics in pyongyang chang sportspeople performance for the cultural events it's simple if the north attends the lympics it's much less likely to stage a provocation launch another missile to family reunions relatives separated by the war that haven't seen each other for decades could be allowed
6:40 am
reunions deck's month and three perhaps most importantly south korea has proposed face to face meetings between the north's and the south's military officials in order to deescalate tensions at long last alternately to denuclearize the peninsula it's a long shorts but it's a start with number one i think we should be engaged in these talks in an earnest sincere manner to give a new year's gift namely the results of the tourists to the korean nations. as you mentioned earlier we hope to bring a precious gift to your people that matches the expectations of our plane with you it is been a chaotic year from escalation to escalation saber rattling and childish rhetoric near enough every month the u.s. and south korea would stage war games on the north's border it's send a message. i
6:41 am
. may even send nuclear bombers to the north's borders north korea was no less provocative and it tested increasingly advanced ballistic missiles stage suspected nuclear weapons tests and . it now reportedly has the capacity to hate mainland united states and kim jong moon has boasted he has his own button and his desk is part of who is button is big contest with trump which is why these talks was so important they allow for a pause for hotheads to cool off and for typing fingers to ease off on the triggers. now the shops of clothing retailer h. and m. have been the focus of protests in south africa the firm is branded racist in the
6:42 am
wake over a picture of a black boy in a hoodie with the words monkey in the jungle printed on it. police in johannesburg five rubber bullets to disperse crowds after demonstrates is trash one thousand m. store there the retailer has already removed the picture and apologized although that hasn't stopped the backlash people on social media. marketing agent and puts a black child in a hoodie that reads and the coolest monkey in the jungle and the white child is the survival expert and now fox are pretending like they don't know the black children have lumping racial characterized as monkeys. is just irony i highly doubt they would like to monkey with. making it seem there's a white supremacist who works for the thought it was funny to make a blackboard model who did that said coolest monkey in the jungle so i was the
6:43 am
racially insensitive but we got opinion from luke get off scenes from spike to magazine and also from. models of diversity. the whole issue is with this advertising campaign it's an advertising campaign that it's international it's an international campaign and it's so obvious that if you're going to use a connotation like monkey whether a child is a monkey you're going to choose a black child for the campaign and a white child as a survivor of the jungle there's not going to have connotations it's ridiculous to think it's not going to have any contagions whatsoever i think is a really sad i think what has happened is the word monkey has been used because this boy is a child and the word monkey is used to describe children of all races because they're cheeky and mischief first and you can see this across children's clothes for children of all races and this was part of a jungle fiend clothing line the idea that this was somehow racially malevolent i
6:44 am
think is utterly ludicrous i'm so disappointed by this campaign i've seen them do they always use a mix of models but this is really not you know ill timed to say the least is what this campaign is it's really badly thought out by a board of white directors because even if it was even if there's that opinion that it's just like badly thought it might be parents that are negatively thinking about this you cannot to not buy the connotation that it held i don't think this has that connotation for the vast majority of people the vast majority of people think this is a perfectly innocent campaign involving children of all races involved in the jungle and. now the british army is trying to keep up with the times by recognizing that its soldiers do have the motion or need here's how the new approach might compare with old perceptions of military life. you know nothing that are going to
6:45 am
stick. you all that way but the more you hate me the more you all are. the obvious. to be told that. there's always someone there to talk to believe just me. well the british army out there is part of a campaign to attract a more diverse range of recruits he can see how the tone of recruitment drive has been changing over the decades former u.k. intelligence officer they feel it doesn't hold out much hope that the more inclusive approach will boost numbers was quite surprised to see these videos that are coming out i do understand that there's been market research suggesting that they should target more minority groups but if the country cruet enough people from the majority groups that the british military have traditionally recruited from i
6:46 am
don't see what the senses and targeting of these minority groups but i think the whole program the advertising campaign is flawed because they're spending an awful lot of money on this because the british army spent until september last year ten million pounds on this recruiting come pins but one. piece of press from the not looking after one of the veterans or one of the current serving soldiers is enough to undo the ten million pound company and the best people to recruit are the soldiers themselves and if they can come up with positive stories to say what it is that they've achieved their academic achievements their training achievements the adventurous activities that they get involved in the team spirit that they build up and then they can take that and reflect whenever they come back into society again as veterans and veterans come out with a good experience of not just how they've been looked after when ever they've
6:47 am
served but how that set them up to go into civilian life. he'd be watching the weekly or not international don't get to get a chance have a look at our website on there and that said our doc. 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 bolivia'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 but there's a new thing this. is all news.
6:48 am
eat with us in the end all. the things years. but there are hundreds of thousands of children in bolivia operation completely outside the local. mining work is strictly forbidden by the children but it's never enforced and that means the school boy minus here continues risking their lives for the money they need to survive on. lemme warhawks selling you on the idea that dropping bombs brings police to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles that they believe the new socks
6:49 am
credits tell you that will be gossip and myself a little support today. has been telling you i'm not cool enough and that's why they're probably. all the hawks that we along with our loved ones. previously on the great american pilgrimage erhard this was the technology that decimated herds of herds of buffalo who ran here if you like the who's the best person some of the best knowledge campbell. it is this news this news you wrote fifty four. as i'm doing that you'll learn more about the people. hey everybody i'm stephen baldwin gosselin task hollywood guy usual suspects my favorite movie proud american first of all i'm just as george washington and r.v. enthusiastic uncle steve to me it's good to join the big boy because this is my
6:50 am
buddy max the famous financial guru and we'll he's a little bit different i'm honest abraham lincoln hall i know there were no windows up last but not least my larger than life. the night an aspiring star rio with all the drama happening in our country i'm hitting the road to have fun. meet everyday americans who are calling what's america to you our ancestors suffered the most and see how things got so crazy i was naked completely naked keep my finger on hopefully start to bridge the gap this is the great american pilgrimage. let's go for the luck of the more with a culture where people are just so you are so it's really you pick back up with our
6:51 am
hero in north dakota and the pilgrimage continues on stephen and dave head out on the road to take a tour of standing rock there we go and try the sorby out guys one two three. and stephen is excited to show dave his r.v. and his awesome driving skills somebody gregorio. but don't don't don't just put him on the bed to lay down the road. we think so far did. he felt. really good i'm going to put my dang seat belt on that's important usually of the driver where is the time for me to put mine on. so that's not just some kind of an indian custom and has come to help. as they leave dave's convenience store david explains to stephen why starting his own business wasn't important what that means for his people told me i was my
6:52 am
little store right we bought it probably about fifteen years ago and we've been running it since then there was no indian owned businesses here on standing up and i wanted to show our members that we could do it we could own our own businesses we could have our own commerce with each other sure i wanted to be an example and i also wanted to be a role model we bought it and it was really challenging because. standing off we have about. forty percent poverty rate. with poverty we have high unemployment we have. high abuses those abuse alcohol abuse high rates a drop of high school drop off so. all the symptoms of poverty exists on setting up . and it's a result of all the things that have taken place over time over two hundred years. david love to hear more about the history of the land. there's a long history in the way they took the federal government took and took and took
6:53 am
it to the point where not just standing off but all indian tribes all in the nations i say stop doing that every since this these lands were discovered we have been considered less than human was a fourteen hundreds what the with the roman catholic church and the people bulls and the. doctor of the. so everyone you discover new lands those lands are yours with all the riches and when the question is asked what about the people who are part of that and they said well they're less than human because they don't know. they don't know about the church and that was in the fourteen hundred. laid out the history for this government and. the foundation for the law when it came to property eighteen eighteen twenty three there was a case just in verses mcintosh and the judge bases ruling off of the doctrine of discovery and that became the foundation of. wasn't eighteen fifty one where
6:54 am
the federal government but we should enter into agreement with this agreement became the first treaty if you wanted the treaty that defined them. where we are today and it was over sixty million acres with the sixty million acres we had disputes because more and more westerners were going through our treaty land to bozeman montana and they called it the bozeman trail from the point of the bozeman trail is that the black hills know that the bosun trail goes to bozeman montana the rocky mountains in montana gold and there is gold discovered. that was eighty six years and short a short time after that eight hundred seventy four. custer general custer led an expedition into the black hills in the black hills. the heart of our people our tribe the nation this is our origin story this is where we came from we came from the black hills we came from when. we came with the buffalo one time as far as i
6:55 am
can see there were buffalo. the buffalo was everything it was our relatives. he he provided our our housing for us with thirty p.c. provided food he provided tools we provided anything and everything we needed it was he was our economy the buffalo were part of who we are. railroad systems came through our lands and for sport. people on a rail system where she will just kill those pictures in the north. pole of mountains of buffalo suppose they have to go out and pick up the buffaloes falls. on the prairie because there were so much everywhere for a million so there were seventy million buffalo in early two hundred by the end of the two hundred there was less than one hundred that changed our will life and that was the that was the result of one infrastructure project so this is the type of stuff that has been happening to our our nation over and over and over in eight hundred seventy seven after gold was discovered the federal government came in and
6:56 am
cost them through congress to take more land so they took our black hills by eight hundred eighty nine they put us on a reservation standing rock sioux tribe was established as two point three million acres that is the size of connecticut. by nine hundred ten. we have less than a million acres left over half of the acreage was dispersed to non indians coming onto the reservation for settlement and they disregarded us at that time we were not even considered citizens of this country. we wish we didn't become citizens until nineteen twenty four of those triggers and so so we didn't have a voice we don't have a say but yet every action that lead to a negative impact on us and the reason why they took the land was for economic development. stephen is learning how the history of the treatment of native americans is repeating itself where we're going right now as of last year and we
6:57 am
have a movement that started here on standing friends our top story tonight the ongoing dispute at the standing rock reservation tensions are heating up once again at the dakota access pipeline that's where thousands of people have been coming to for months this is a three point eight billion dollars pipeline that cuts across four u.s. states the struggle to protect the drinking water and sastra lands from the pipe. once construction a time has led to violent confrontations between activists who call themselves water protectors and the police if you were to come here last year at this time there would be cars horseback riders and tepees there were people coming from all over we had over ten thousand people from the standing rock and they came because we're standing up against. this pipeline is going to cost on the other side of the river and if anything happens to it the first people impacted by this right is our people. we wanted to do a more in-depth. study environmental impact statement what impact will it have on
6:58 am
people as well. this is where they can feel right but also the whole field right here is fulfilled on the side was the camp was the chief piece and everything and on top media center but it was nicknamed facebook kill. this ill here. why facebook killed because i was only place people could get on facebook well thank goodness for that. there wasn't even wife ice just just getting ready to record any connection to the internet was really there and that's fine. this was the main entrance into the camp flags from all the nations that came and visited all fun and not like that one flag will stand on the other come around the corner there's a bridge here and this is called the backwater bridge there was a confrontation here where the militarized police watered down protest the. freedom of water extreme temperatures cold temperatures and they use water then if you go around the corner where everything really started there was
6:59 am
a the route of the pipeline and then they needed to build an access road access road was being built that's where the main. protest began well was another alter case and we had there was a attack dogs use so as time progressed the police became more and more militarized more and more force was used and there were more and more people. there are thousands of people right now heading to standing rock to be water protectors dado the most maybe milledge red bull you know with the guy the street looks like the group amnesty international says it's very concerned about how police in north dakota have treated protesters it says the use of force by police violates protesters rights to a peaceful protest i watched people shot with rubber bullets i watched peaceful prayerful water protectors get mace and pepper sprayed and none of them fighting back one time we had better and all around the world. to stand with
7:00 am
over four thousand veterans and all the people and that's what happened here there was an awakening because there was an awakening tribes now know that this is a turning point for us to try to make the lie better and come away from. what the the federal government has left who supported by the way that. they're not able people are wondering if they're going to and not not tomorrow. right here where the upcoming approaches that's where the pipeline crossing actually is this route coming up here on the right and you could turn their experience. there were to land this guard but on the google build. on. the new.
