olive branch and this is turkish forces moving into syria to fight against the kurds two allies of the united states clashing with each other in syria as the tensions escalate we're even hearing calls to rename the street on which the u.s. embassy in turkey's capital is located there are calls to rename the street olive branch after operation olive branch the turkish operation to go into syria and fight against the kurdish forces armed by the united states there seems to be quite a bit of contradiction in the words and statements of u.s. leaders and there seems. to be rising tension between all three parties the usa turkey and the kurdish forces. the rift between turkey and the us could deepen further over another region in northern syria mon beach which turkey is targeting in the next part of its military operation currently u.s. troops are stationed there opening up the possibility of a direct confrontation we asked. a middle east expert where this could lead

fake news regarding russia there have been rumors floating around that russia influenced the braggs it though and the u.s. has been accusing the kremlin of interfering in the twenty sixteen presidential election for over a year and a half now now the british government's been busy trying to link russia to the brig's it though but even you tube has gone on record saying that there's been no proof of that sort and across the pond the u.s. has been searching relentlessly for anything to pin hillary's loss on russia so this is just yet another russian interference and it successfully debunked but the u.s. establishment refuses to let go of this idea that russia supposedly hacked the election so i have to ask how many more times will this have to happen until they finally admit that there was no you know magical russian meddling earlier we talked to dave perkins radio talk show host and a political commentator and thinks it is all part of the campaign against the u.s. president what people fail to understand in the rest of the world i think even americans are.
