a text message from the boys to the school thought she should not go to morning. and that's amid a string of similar attacks through. russia this week more details now with all its users jacqueline very good jacqueline what has been going on well as you pointed out today's incident is not isolated wednesday saw an attack and on monday as well over a dozen students were injured in the stabbing incident let's take a quick quick look at what has happened this week. now on all these incidents basic weapons have been used to my axes the molotov cocktail today but that's not where the similarities and a disturbing online trend might also link all of these cases together our sources believe that online violent groups that take inspiration from tragedies like the

columbine high school massacre may also be linking them together now of course columbine took place back in one thousand nine hundred nine and that's when two students that were armed to the teeth came to their school killed twelve of their classmates and a teacher injuring dozens more and followers of groups on russia's v.k. which is sort of the russian version of facebook there's lots and lots of groups on v.k. that take inspiration from columbine and those that follow it call themselves cohen binders now in sort of glorifies the attacks and that the idea of having guns etc just all this very violent content and of course one of the alleged perpetrators of monday's attack has been confirmed to be a follower of a number of those pages and they're looking into whether or not today's attack also has connections to that as of today russian officials have announced that they will begin shutting down pages that center on terrorism extremist extremism or condoning

or encouraging suicide but of course that's going to be something that's really hard to do because new pages pop up all the time there. often hidden and there are a shocking number of people who do follow these pages that are to say thank you. and your law in germany which combats hate speech online is making headlines again that's after the facebook account of a member of the rightwing alternative for germany party was blocked following her call for people to join a women's march against rape and killings perpetrated by migrants in the country i organized the women's march to the chancery almost every day we read about horrific rapes and murder of women the more women come the more pressure it will put america and politicians from the old parties together let us take to the streets to fight for our right to freedom and serve the temora nation. despite belonging to a party known for its strong anti migrant rhetoric layla bilger who is

a women's and children's rights activist regularly travels to syria and iraq to help people there she is of migrant origin herself and was surprised at the official reason for her facebook about. as an interface will come ashore on my travels with facebook started a few years ago facebook has a big issue with women of migrant background you can notice that i don't have a nordic look you can see that i'm originally from the south here in germany i find through human rights which isn't always easy in islamic countries people like me are silenced by facebook it's this i have a certain popularity and quite a large following i was blocked for thirty days then my account was deleted but that wasn't the first time my accounts have now been purged four times and since i am a member of the air of d. which in germany fires for women's rights i'm a nuisance for facebook and the mainstream media. was under the new law that forces social media to delete offensive content within twenty four hours of receiving

a complaint otherwise companies face big fines earlier this month the deputy leader of the alternative for germany party so her facebook and twitter account suspended after she criticized the country's police for saying happy new year in arabic. again says people who express their anger at migrant policies in germany are seeing their voices silenced online. this problem is you know the policy of the german government and especially of the older parties is intended to help young men from islamic or african countries get settled in europe and to accept their religion and culture for this reason and german citizen who has lived here forever is being ignored and in the case of facebook or twitter it works like this they censor all critical statements even though they are consistent with the real situation of course it runs against the mainstream political line in germany for this reason they try to silence all critics of the german government's asylum policy. drug

related crimes are becoming so bad on parts of the powers metro the train drivers are reportedly refusing to stop at certain stations so according to a letter written by a union which represents the metro bus network in the capital. could jump on board to find out if those fears are grounded. for most parisians the metro is a staple of life with its winding tunnels and lines that stretch across the city it's often the easiest way to get from a to b. but down in the underground the gritty underbelly of the capital is being exposed drug related crime and violence has been a longstanding issue on paris's metro but now the unions representing the train drivers say it's inspiring out of control dealers and users including those taking crack cocaine a neural gaol doing what they've doing. lighting up metro drivers is so

fearful of attacks it's some stations many are choosing to no longer stop there a survivor more force of i'm not pro quo is very dangerous and it's terrifying and it can range from a simple punch to people using nails knives. stations like marks door more and market a question year are especially troubled druggies has come here for their daily fix and gangs have taken over the problem of a more. the problem is very dangerous for both the metro workers and for the commuters is even more dangerous they are targets of fast i've seen more than one hundred attacks take place within minutes of arriving if mark's door metro station we witnessed what looks like a drug deal the man with his back to the camera has just arrived with the bag in hand he walked the platform stopping and exchanging some packages with people and

then he left with his bag empty this seems to be the new normal. there are lots of drug users and i think that with everything that's happening in the match though they should be doing something most of the time the drug users are aggressive and everyone. he's afraid for the security of my children. twenty twenty five. lived there we will we verse of course. been attacked just one time because he had been in the middle of the night is smart for. playing with that problem was the precipice the problem is the security robberies can happen sometimes it's maybe aggression physical aggression sometimes do was a sorry man attack another young man. as we travelled through some of the most

dangerous stations we saw metro security and police trying to crack down on the problem this exceeded in moving this bunch are long but in reality all they've done is move the problem to another stop on to another day charlotte even ski arty paris. one short statement from u.s. military command has led to a rather uncomfortable situation for the white house the trouble ministration has been rapidly backpedaling on plans to create a border force with codes in northern syria after sparking a furious reaction from washington's key ally turkey the secretary of state later try to clarify the situation saying the u.s. has no intention of creating a border security force in syria. is he saying that when the pentagon says we're going to try to come up with a force of thirty thousand people that that that's long or is he just just feeling

why wouldn't i would have to refer you to the department of defense on that i think they were clear in the statement that they put out so let me just refer you to them on that. but i'm asking about closing comments yesterday we said there's no border security force that's not what it is like i don't have to refer you to the turkish government about what they became so concerned about and the fact that somebody misspoke and i'm not going to name any names and neither is the secretary but somebody clearly just misstated their policy it's as simple as that however the announcement had already threatened to create a new conflict in war torn syria with turkey immediately moving its tanks straight to the border it later said it had no option but to continue the operation. internally codes took to the streets to protest against ankara's military actions on to denounce the ones remark. will be aired the ones graveyard today hundreds of thousands are protesting to tell him that the people of our friend will never leave their land. the international

community should send a message to turkey telling them to stop. the white house down so we can do. we discuss the latest tensions between the u.s. and turkey with international relations professor jamal wakim he believes we're currently seeing the various stages of damage control being set into motion. is trying to limit the damage that was caused to the turkish american relations with this new american move by establishing this border army under the pretext of protecting the border the syrian border with iraq and with thirty but i believe that the main geo political objective here is for the united states to have such a good army in eastern syria that could ensure that the united states have a foothold on syrian soil and prevents the syrian government from extending its

control over to the. northeast part of syria so as regional tensions between the two key allies worsen tease each other down off as me taking a closer look. the middle east has always proved a tough nut to crack for the united states hardly helping matters now though is lacking a unified game plan days ago the pentagon proudly announced it would create a so-called syrian border security force the coalition is working jointly with the syrian democratic forces to establish and train the new syrian border security force currently there are approximately two hundred thirty individuals training in the cynical class with the goal of a final four size of approximately thirty thousand but the u.s. apparently forgot to run the idea past turkey for ankara kurdish military groups terrorist factions it's as clear cut as that and washington's announcement drove turkey hopping mad shit. america has admitted that it has established

a terrorist army at our border and it's up to us to strangle that terror army at birth turkey power projected additional troops along with tanks to the southern border with syria and amid the spouse america's top diplomat rex tillerson intervened to save the day the entire situation has been mis portrayed mr scribed some people misspoke we're not creating a border security force at all being a mouthpiece of u.s. foreign policy these days is one hell of a job especially when you have to contradict your own military to keep a happy but arguably that's not to listen is biggest brain wrench right now explaining why the u.s. military is still in syria is first it was the we need to fight the terrorists mantra our military policy in syria has not changed our priority remains the defeat of isis so called his law make state has to all intents and purposes now been

reduced to a ragtag of guerrilla fighters but surprise surprise it's left to to listen to come up with a new purpose for the u.s. military in syria it is crucial to our national. military and diplomatic presence and sir. stable unified independent syria under post assad leadership is functioning as a state. iranian influence in syria is diminished. and as if life wasn't hard enough or to listen he has the tweeter in chief as he's president rex is a bit of a to run a saurus when it comes to social media but he tries to survive. i don't even have a twitter account but i can follow what he's tweeting so my staff usually has to print his tweets out and in them to me.

just a quarter past the hour here in moscow you are watching r t international thank you for joining us on this friday we are back. here's what people have been saying about rejecting. the all the show i go out of my way to you know. really back to. the john oliver of art to america is this. apparently better than. to see people you've never heard of went back to the night president of the world bank. sent us an e-mail.

joining us here on r.t. the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. nikki haley said on wednesday the trumpet ministrations policy in afghanistan is working and they are closer to a peace process than ever before however the un was recently reporting that almost half a million people in afghanistan were displaced in twenty seventeen alone and so show you some of the latest pictures from that country.

the u.s. powerfully on afghanistan is working. or we are all were victims of the bombing is ongoing. a lot of houses destroyed and several villages about six to seven thousand families are living in this camp. for. work closer to talks with the taliban and the peace process than we've seen before. as we were the taliban and i said we're fighting each other then government forces launched a military operation against our houses were destroyed our livestock. this is. why we do not want afghanistan to be a safe haven for terrorism any more and so we continue to go down that path twenty

one international terrorist groups are operating in this country dozens of suicide bombers are being sent we are and we do everything we can to combat terrorism. particularly has to pretend that us policy is working because she's loyal follower of donald trump she can serve as the donald trump's policy is not working his policy is very similar to obama's except to do is now sending another four thousand . troops so soon there will be something like fourteen thousand u.s. troops instead of nano tooling so that's a sign that the old policy wasn't working but it's not at all clear that the new policy of sending more troops will work the trouble is that writers five or ten years ago the main opponents were the taliban and since then we've had all the people coming into the picture there was the haqqani network there was

a bit in heck much ah but then the third group that's come up in the last five years it's i.s.i. says they've been conducting some very dramatic suicide bombings in kabul itself so that kabul itself has become much less safe than it used to be. for people who filed a lawsuit against the city of buckley in california and it's university injuries they claim they received during riots on the campus there last year violence erupted over a speech set to be given at the university by a prominent conservative.

we talked to katrina who is taking legal. against the university of berkeley she believes the campus on the city's police acted insufficiently during the protests but when the attack started and specially after i was pepper sprayed i was completely incapacitated there was nothing i could do to defend myself so i had no choice but to turn around and just face the barricade i was worried about what was happening to my husband it turned out he was just a few feet away from me being beaten worse than any of us he was being unconscious

the efforts by the police both the city and the campus police were clearly inadequate given what happened then the injuries that were sustained what i saw personally was police initially standing outside of the building that they later locked us out of i saw them there they acknowledged us with a wave and by the time the attack actually started they were nowhere to be seen they had locked themselves inside the building and wouldn't give us any aid at all the university of california berkeley declining to comment but the lawyer representing the victims says they want to send a message to compass and police to do a better job. the injuries caused to our clients two of which were beaten unconscious and still suffer from psychological disorders post-traumatic disorders so they are seeking money damages to compensate them for that but the main goal of this case is to send a message to campus police and campus universities that they they have to do their

job you know i liken what happened here the deliberate effort to not intervene and to not do anything to fire a man watching a building on fire with their with their hoses water pouring out of them but they're too afraid to go into the building because they might get hurt it's the goal of law enforcement it's the role of law enforcement i should say to serve and protect the public and they did not do that. friday means football here on r.t. in the latest episode of his program stan collymore interviews the legendary. spanish national team defender and a rail madrid captain here's a quick preview. of. ok so i think.

it's important the russia have a good world called the team gets out of the group for the momentum of the tournament. i think that when one plays at home backed by their country one always has a higher responsibility so it is a plus and gives extra motivation which will shine through i wish the russian team the best because when we have played there they have always given us a friendly reception but i only wish them well until we cross paths if we ever do an elementary cristiana rinaldo portugal you spain first game of the blue. a very interesting game to start this is i believe it's going to be a very exciting game and highly anticipated as well because it is a neighboring country i think they are the ones to beat because they are the current european champions and that will make it a really nice match to watch for football fans we hope to win because it is

a very important to kick off the competition with a victory against the favorite. and finally for those who like to live life on the edge is the story of a bridge in eastern siberia as you can see behind me in the pitch heavily damaged by fire with his wooden planks rotting away the five hundred meter river crossing is amazingly still braved by fifteen hundred locals every day.

and joining us on this friday your worldwide headlines continue in half an hour with my colleague niki air. force. i think that is what drove meets confidence and confidence is based on on common goals i strongly believe that the u.s.

and europe have any place to be croly and the united states has been a partner in creating that fool based system. i'm afraid that's. true if forwards and the specially language person trump has been using and i'm not that confident that the contribution of the united states to that tool based system is still as relevant as superspy. most people think to stand out in this business you need to be the first one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest ratings in truth to stand out of the news business you just need as the right questions and demand the right answer. questions. hey everybody i'm stephen bob.

taft hollywood guy the suspects every proud american first of all interests george bush and our view to say this is my body mass famous financial guru well just a little bit different i've got a. good idea there are no windows up with all the drama happening in our country i'm shooting the road have fun meet everyday americans. and cooks we start to bridge the gap this is the great american pill which. began.

in the middle of the sixty's there were thirteen million students enrolled in higher education in two thousand and fifteen there were two hundred million in less than fifteen years there are expected to be four hundred million to. thirty hold lie between. lepage in the border and. while the demand keeps growing university tuition fees skyrocket the world over the cost of education is high increasing. here for colorado's more. mainstream i don't understand how can a school be a scam. in the name of so-called economic pragmatism and as a result of international competition universities attending into huge money making machine it's. none of my family members went to university i think i wanted to be i wanted to be got one. from shanghai to. new york paris

to berlin countries around the world reflect trying different moves each remodelling its system in its own way but at what price and who profits from it. was. at the starting point of us dorie which begins at the end of the ninety's. at that time europe is the financial izing itself all the while expanding many intellectuals european university presidents and expert groups engage in a vast reflection on how to build a more complete more ambitious europe. how to strengthen its intellectual scientific and technological influence. what is the secret of the united states and its economic power. the answer lies in higher.
