still be on the floor like so nobody can see us. like not to be on our phones. it's also when we realized we were just like are you waiting at some point they came and they told us like thirty minutes later this all goes well everything is clear around but like we're not going to let you out like right now. that's all everybody was just trying to reach out of their friends and their family. how much harm i just like feel various kinds of lost is like i don't know what will i call it's weird. because it's just never been so mean and so i just don't think they're going to school is going to be like the same up there with. police have identified the suspect as nicholas cruz a nineteen year old former student of the school who was expelled for disciplinary

reasons p. said he was armed with a semiautomatic rifle and multiple magazines chris has confessed to police he carried out the shooting he's been charged with seventeen counts of premeditated murder for his students described the suspect as troubled it's been reported teachers but warned about him some time ago given his enthusiasm for firearms and significantly the f.b.i. and the police have admitted that received tipoffs about the gunman long before the attack but failed to investigate. we have on target at the broward sheriff's office where we got approximately twenty course of the service over the last two years regarding the killer the f.b.i. has a term and their protocol was not followed. the probation was not provided by me but . in no further investigation was conducted that. we've seen time and time again

over the last few years our intelligence agencies across the west dropping the ball in terms of getting tips being aware of potential threats and not following up on those threats and you taking out the sense of measures it seems lessons not being learned they need to have a proper view about you know what exactly are the threats what are they trying to do how can they best protect the people of their country to protect against these threats and that doesn't seem to be done. the winter games in south korea have just past the halfway mark russian freestyle skier bravo has just won a bronze and earlier on sunday the limbic athletes from russia or a our team won silver in the cross country skiing the n.c.a.a. has had to compete without team leaders they didn't receive any invitation from the international olympic committee despite never being involved in doping accusations of drugs use prompted the i.o.c. to buy a new miss russian athletes for life the athletes appealed that decision and the

court of arbitration for sport overturned life banned for twenty eight russian athletes at the start of february however then the court did an apparent u. turn and deciding not to act against the i.o.c. who had block some of the cleared athletes from competing at the games we spoke with the court secretary-general asking him about the reasons behind both its and the i.o.c. is decisions the full interview is available on our website that's r.t. dot com but here is a quick preview. these athletes applied but were denied access to the games because the i.o.c. decided not to invite them so it was not a sanction it was an eligibility issue that's a legal difference for us. only reviewed the question of the application of the law of the rules of the i.o.c. it's reviewed only the process whether it was fair whether it was nondiscriminatory

discriminatory. it found that it was not critical there was no. the rules were not unfair and they have complied with by the i.o.c. so it was only a legally stick approach again there was no review of every. for the entire case of the sochi case was not discussed here the report was last discussed here. the fact that you cannot establish the give evidence of the deal doesn't mean that you have established the innocence of the athlete this is the other way around with the sochi case because the i.o.c. had to show that the athletes were guilty the fact that the unable to show the guilt of an athlete doesn't mean that the athlete has nothing to do other with the case. we are not acting on the pressure so it was not a pressure for us because we have different panel of arbitrators they work

independently and they are not really. they are not employees of caste they are independent people. once they have been notified to the parties we will publish them. where the russian athletes prohibited from competing and their country's flag. against reaction from fans around the world who have gathered young child. it will take a long while for russian athletes journalists like myself that i can tell you first sure to forget the acronym oh a r after appealing chang twenty eighteen well just before the winter games a group of russian designers thought they could take advantage of the international olympic committee's language sanctions. i put one of those on myself and decided to walk around near the olympic park

a little bit. what kind of team do people with this kind of sweatshirt support. gross you. know it's a limp a calf really believes he can beat the russians north koreans are doing north for russia the russians who will you be here because they don't if you lose a limb then something of a limb think athletes of russia what would you chant if you were annoying our team supporter. we've come from really before on our. own lower. leg some people say a russian animal can make a sound like that bear the russian bear siberian tiger the fear was.

fear would make it sound like it's hungry. for gold medals well judging by the first few days of the winter olympics the russian fans have chosen to stick to the more traditional chants and symbols. here we have a train go artsy n.p.r. . still to come on the week the u.s. joins bait over foreign i still find his returning to their home countries that's after this break. looking at value surveys russians aren't so different from the european neighbors

when it comes to individual rights and freedoms however they do have a very low tolerance for uncertainty in politics that translates into a strong electoral advantage for the incumbent making power transitions rare and precarious what would it take for russians to stop playing it safe politically. is a way to practice is the oppressive measures being deployed against the palestinian people everywhere the settler colonialism the theft of our land and. maybe we. can all do the stating things then there are many years of doing of course the gun calls and uprising.

welcome back to the program in france intelligence sources say sixty seven of the two thousand also french people that joined islamic state in the middle east came from the same paris suburb charlotte chapel that. a short train ride from paris is trapped on the surface there's nothing much to set it aside from the thousands of other towns in the country but you don't have to scratch very deep to see that trap is very different where you won't see any non how the butcher shops there were i think at the moment over fifteen hundred prayer rooms and five mosques if you look at people on the street you won't see couples holding hands you'll see the women are dressed in strict islamic dress. there's a lot of home schooling so you couldn't really consider trap. typical french town anymore it's a little bit like

a state within the state for decades it's been considered a magnet for muslim fundamentalists hardline salafism and wahhabi islam a widely practiced and trap has become synonymous with jihadism. and dozens of people. islamic state i was have carried out attacks. have been linked. in two thousand and fifty while the terror threat appears to. think that. there is some plain white pride remaining bad but your heart is only a matter of time before we have another attack the basic problem is that the ideology that's driving this and this goes much deeper than terrorist cells planning and executing attacks that ideology is so ingrained that last year a poll of french high school students revealed thirty two percent of muslim

students believed islamic doctrine was superior to scientific fact another in two thousand and sixteen showed that sixty eight percent believed islamic law was superior to french law there's also concern that in an area like this that was once branded. by the authorities. but syria is becoming the lands. the full veil covering has been burned to the eighty's yet the police are often reluctant to intervene off the riots in two thousand and thirteen when officers try to i.d. a woman who is fully covered with a very very fragile situation which the government doesn't want to provoke urban riots which would quickly spread like wildfire all over france. president corn says he wants to reorganize islam in a bid to fight fundamentalism but some experts say that's

a pipe dream radicalization in places like this they say he's already far too deep rooted to dick out jollity pinski r.t. trap. the u.s. is joining in the chorus of growing concern coming out of europe over foreign i saw fighters returning to their home country it's washington has urged its allies particularly britain to pay more attention to citizens who fled europe to join the terror group here goes defense secretary has previously said they should not be allowed to return i don't think they should ever set foot in this country again they turned their back on britain our values and everything we stand for they are the worst of the worst we're working with the coalition on foreign fighter detainees and generally expect these detainees to return to their country of origin for disposition at the present time i saw the terrorists of u.k. origin who return home to face prison sentences while other european countries have

tried to reintegrate performing militants back into society in denmark to x. jihadists have even received apartments and jobs to promote integration. we put the issue of how to deal with returning to hardest up for debate. initially britain said we're going to make them stateless remove their passports not going to allow them reentry other countries then said let's take a more light approach some of the nordic nations said let's try to protect them have cut radicalization programs which in part have actually been quite successful in some areas at the same time then the u.s. is now taking the lead and the u.s. defense said foreign countries need to repatriate their own citizens and deal with them using the rule of law and i think that's a sensible way to go they should not come back here it's as simple as that because they've committed the crimes abroad so why should the turks. foot the bill for all this rehabilitation and all the short probably they do in jail for quite

a while that cost more when these crimes are being committed aboard let the authorities deal with him under the rule of law in them. you know there are lots of different stories about what happens to these people if we make them stateless stenciling they will stay out there they will keep breeding extremism terrorism radicalization and they'll keep killing and they'll keep paying us so we have probably have to deal with you can't hide from it you cannot fall back on this british passport so you know i committed atrocities abroad but all four were british passport into the mix so i get sent back home know how do people have committed crimes without any evidence in front of them and putting them on trial just assume people went out there so i don't want to go out of here in london and regularly on trial here i go i mean like all regularly well these are obviously the the un is so weak it's laughable the you again is so weak just nonexistent but should have. should have at the un peacekeeping forces making safe and so we could

properly categorize these people rather than these people go into fight for whichever side these people fight. against but now because the fight for the cure is to be classed here it becomes a ridiculous situation. the u.s. justice department has indicted. thirteen russian nationals and three companies in connection with alleged rattling in america's twenty sixteen presidential election but as there's no such criminal offense in the u.s. as meddling the defendants were charged with conspiracy to defraud the united states among the three enterprises indicted is the st petersburg based internet research agency which is accused of conspiring to sow political discord and the other is a catering company which is suspected of having helped fund the whole scheme the thirteen defendants allegedly used methods ranging from organizing political rallies to posing as grassroots activists some of the supposed methods that were

off the wall for example driving at hillary clinton impersonator dressed like this one as a convict in caged in the back of a truck they also allegedly bought facebook ads to promote a rally title support hillary save american muslims but despite the supposedly gone to these ploys apparently had zero impact there is no one elevation in the indictment that the charge conduct alter the outcome of the twenty sixteen election they wanted to quote so discord by. breaking into elections no stealing the numbers no changing the numbers no voter fraud no vote by merely providing information through advertisements thirty listings and social media accounts that were shared by americans the

millions of dollars that have been involved in the russian investigation so far. special constable council muller has indicted for people for that so that's all he has to show and so far nothing has been done let me remind you that we still don't know what russian collusion is we still don't know because deputy attorney general rosenstein today made it very clear that there was no evidence that anything that these russians or any russians did russian nationals or people who speak russian or people in the russian government but there was no evidence that any of this affected the election whatsoever isn't that fascinating and if it didn't affect the election what's the point of this. i'll be back at the top of the hour with more news so do stay with us.

closer to a new when you don't. see the teacher gallic try to get a court to do. what to me not through only ten space. may be. left alone kelly said. claiming to know somebody did that to. alex you speak french. those of us who want the same thing let's send them folks knew. this busy cut down towards the end. when lawmakers manufacture consent instinctive public wells. when the room

in closest to protect themselves. when the final merry go round lifts only the one percent. we can all middle of the room sick. from the real news room. in america a college degree requires a great deal. paying a decades old debts for. studying so hard it requires trust just. going through humiliation to enter an elite society. and partying to dance sometimes quite literally. wants other true colors. of universities in the us.

throughout. our. now there was a near you which because of the both issue of chicago is really one that can speak for through what you. it was a cute. bit posole cause. is up and as long as we're still when it's not a need. for you when you go to use some of those artful but it gets on this list what is going to go. slow to slow it is when you know how to weave through news of the

slowing important that is over. funded it step on the. slow play. the hero status of step on bond was short lived in two thousand and ten victoriano covert each was elected president this time the international community had no doubts about the legitimacy of the elections. in january two thousand and eleven victoriana covert troops killed the hero title of bond era. almost four years into his presidency though another revolution shook ukraine unfortunately this one was anything but peaceful. not. mr yanukovych which i'm an american i'm an outsider to the situation and it's very

complicated but i would like as a as a filmmaker just to jump into the action and go to those moments in november two thousand and thirteen you're president of the ukraine you've been president for three years at this point the country is in bad economic shape very bad you have a trade agreement with russia and now you are seeking to make a better agreement with the e.u. with the european union and you are negotiating can you bring me to that moment and what you're thinking just sitting at the bill or video for the media. and yeah probably i'm with these to treat them in the. but then will not. drop out of cuba. should go in numbers no hold no wouldn't we fund. not but it is written you would guard them with villepin to have order number but

it loud knew pretty you had then asked why didn't that issue in the snatch it in there by the. very phone down the silliness please use your will now and then on the sea too early in the house to is or was so that she didn't also governess in it but it also the whole bit. but isn't it when they had the new partially bliss really brought here very on the irish india but also. i think the customer is not old nor well you know when they have been here deities to try to not some of us thought well as i see it. but i see it now because a storm we had always wanted a bullet cut but if you want to use it which stewardship national interests it. began with nickel grain the price you. know it's got the economy. socialists still unknown you can only assume we're going to get national. committed no since

you thought about it i'm not going to separate them which and almost i was going to . take it one of them. seems to me that what i mean the national territory was mistaken to go over. them with naturalists shit that belongs. to. the tone and you would hope i. economy i scored zero. but year europa convinced that thing you put a brick toaster you arrest. them. stuck on a shelf. because the condition is they're going to show it appears to be good to you will but in the. know when you don't need to back up let you. say you would open a new eventually to spear home net them move but it was really like but i was.

violent clashes erupted in the ukrainian capital kiev as more than one hundred thousand people protested against a government decision to delay an association deal with you. to tell you were minister of interior affairs for the ukraine during this period when you were chief of police essentially of the country can you tell me your version of what happened from november protests through february protests in middle school in four months or . so who did this issue but not some of the law schools all of. them michel it could be you can use throw. but decide your. civil peace can say those are semi outs and you leader of the opposite. party father that the book leader of the opposition nationalist far right

political parties vitali klitschko leader of the opposition party who die both e.u. and ukrainian officials said on thursday the suspension of talks on closer ties could be revived after the two day meeting but officials said the deal was off the table for. war. pro e.u. protests on the streets of kiev and to their second day the crowd of around a thousand protesters were joined by the leader of the opposition or any well boxing champion vitaly klitschko he called on the demonstrators to maintain pressure on the government after it decided not to sign a major trade deal with the e.u. you go back to kiev the next day after the meeting with merkel and protests are up

at my right can you take me through that period. by the minute the worst of them you see. more deal or will have. to go to. me of. course we took a. little. up just in the country. is that overall michel interest will release the world will to shift my ground. robert perry is a longtime investigative journalist based in washington d.c. best known for his major disclosures about the iran contra scandal in the one nine hundred eighty s. he is the founder of consortium news where he is. reported extensively on the

crisis in ukraine and the forces behind the unrest and in geo is a non-governmental organization how many n.g.o.s are quite legitimate they represent good causes that maybe they help people in a country the door deal with water problems or deal with various kinds of social problems but there are some n.g.o.s that have become funded by government entities and serve more the purpose of that government rather than trying to serve the people that they are sensibly working for one thing we saw in the one nine hundred eighty s. at that point the central intelligence agency had been largely discredited because of the scandals that had been exposed in the one nine hundred seventy s. but that being years the cia has secretly financed its overseas activities of the national student association but then there came to light a fantastic way of the cia penetration so when the reagan administration came in there was this concept that instead of having the cia which traditionally would go into these different target countries funding media funding n.g.o.s funding

different political operations that was essentially farmed out to a new organization called the national endowment for democracy which was created in one thousand nine hundred three and it would do pretty much what the agency used to do it would go into one of these countries and it would support various political groups train activists deal with journalists business groups and try to advance u.s. foreign policy interests sometimes against the interests of the host government the target government and beyond that they received financial and other logistical help from the national endowment for democracy and other u.s. agencies that help them training activists working with journalists to get their side presented more favorably they work on things like how do you get traction how do you get things to go viral how do you then use that to generate support for your cause and support. it was generated was the thought that you know stuff and i am

the founder of one of ukraine's new media outlets. don't really know how. much good t.v. knew very well how to make something go viral. it was his notorious facebook post on november twenty first two thousand and thirteen that brought the first crowds to my dog. gets in the post office to retrieve the checks into the book the last ball of this. if you don't read the newspaper you are uninformed if you read the newspaper you are misinformed. to deliver your message efficiently enough in the modern world with so many different technologies and means of communications you must embrace them all as the disturbing events of your own my don started on nov twenty first two thousand and thirteen three new t.v. channels went on the air and suddenly became stunningly popular in ukraine spill no t.v. november twenty first.
