a new course examining what it means to be white in the united states and how so-called whiteness impacts on modern life. hello welcome to the program it's nine am wednesday morning here in moscow my name calling this is your global news from international first to what's been happening in syria pro-government fighters have entered the kurdish enclave of afrin to help repel an incursion by the turkish military. this was filmed just outside the city of afrin the fighters could be seen waving the syrian flag and chanting the syrian people are one but they then came under fire from the turkish military president says the shelling forced the processor and government fighters to retreat ten kilometers however the commander in the prophesied military alliance claims the militia is now inside africa our senior

correspondent what i guess they have takes a closer look at the situation. this was a demonstration hundreds of pro assad militia fighters with tanks armor brazenly riding into africa with smiles cheers and cameras. the turks well see for yourself and korea's response was explosive loaded and delivered in artillery shells. today towards evening he was determined by the hasty s. militias that about ten pickup trucks were coming towards africa they were then forced to turn back following the shelling these cases being closed for now. warned that this would happen no one may help the y.p. g. said as for the kurds themselves he's promised to put them in a choke hold in me

a days i need secure the preparation on the ground takes time in the coming days we will lay siege to the city of us here you have two major anti isis coalition partners terrorist and aggressor as they call each other turkey in the y.p. ji partner in all but name juking it out beating each other to a bloody pulp one might ask where is america the head of the us led. the isis coalition. why are you still here why are these weapons still arriving america is in the process of creating a terrorist army. do not encroach on our borders do not provoke us we will run out of patience let's not forget how it all began with the statement a us declaration that it would build an army of kurds to patrol the turkish border that

sent into a fit rage and it was that statement that was used to justify this new war washington backtracked it's now laying low but the damage was done the coalition imploded and it's up to others to stop this. we do not believe that the u.s. will. be year strategy depends on creating new chaos in the middle east to pursue its interests in this region it is sad washington said the fire that is now consuming its own anti isis coalition and burning africa into the ground the us role has been reduced to diligently expressing its concern worry but not regret. meanwhile in london a flash mob being held to show solidarity with the kurds in africa protesters fell to the ground and lay still as though dead in protest against turkey's invasion of

northern syria the demonstrators also made calls for britain to stop selling arms to turkey but according to middle east analysts joshua landis it's not just london that's to blame for exacerbating the conflict he says america's support for the kurds has caused the situation in the region to deteriorate. the u.s. has been supplying a lot of weaponry to the kurds east of the euphrates when the united states first entered syria. it turkey and the united states came up to an agreement that everything west you priest was turkmens everything east of the euphrates the united states men beige is a sore point but that's still to be decided on but that's the way it's been and the united states has been giving a lot of weapons to white egypt now it's obviously telling a white chief do not attack turkey with those weapons because the moment you do that you will justify everything that your door that says is going to happen that

you're connected with it and so the united states is sitting on the kurds in essence is telling them why peaches you have to sacrifice your brothers and i mean to preserve us out east for its. next we continue our look at recent discoveries from japan's official archives which shed light on the grim government run eugenics program which left thousands of people infertile over the decades that it was in force jacqueline has their story. records of only a fraction of the people subjected to sterilization have been revealed but this may finally help the victims to get justice after decades of suffering and some are already taking action has a hard time going through the middle school that's when i was diagnosed with a mental disability my teacher took me for a medical check and then i was taken to hospital. well i remember at home my parents told me that i was operated on and now i cannot have babies my father discourse to sign documents by my teacher and welfare offices but there are many

victims the government should make apologies and pay compensation to them it's believe they're up to twenty five thousand victims all under the eugenics protection law in force for almost forty years as late as the mid ninety's the procedures were in order to quote preserve the purity of the japanese race people with mental disabilities or hereditary diseases were targeted but misdiagnosis of such conditions was common causing even more unnecessary suffering we managed to speak to the relative of one such victim when i got married my mother in law told me that my sister has been sterilized after i made an information disclosure request i found out she was only fifteen when the ration took place genetic mental disease was the only listed reason for her sterilization however it is not true when she was a one year old she became mentally handicapped because of the anesthesia three different doctors gave her so she didn't have a genetic condition in over sixteen thousand cases the procedure was even carried

out without consent and shockingly victims were as young as nine years old appeals to admit the practice had taken place were dismissed for years with victims being told that the evidence was simply gone the only show the question is who's responsible for all of this to me it's the government's fault thanks akita the program as well as the national legislature which a doctor the law needs to take responsibility and make apologies a soonest possible doctors also responsible but in a way that we used by the government. i think that the now defunct eugenic protection law existed for the sole purpose to reject a band of disabled. when i requested the disclosure of the documents regarding my sister surgery they told me the files were just said to have been stripped. if process had been thrown away the evidence of the mutilation of my sister's body will simply trashed in the case of another big to mrs zucker the documents were

thrown into the fire when i heard about it i was beside myself with anger. hotlines have been set up to bring together victims for what's likely to be an extremely long and traumatic battle for justice but while victims one compensation they say money isn't the main reason their goal is to create awareness to ensure that horrors like this never take place again. there's been a tense encounter of the united nations security council between the u.s. envoy and the palestinian leader mahmoud abbas delivered a vitriolic address on tuesday i'm squarely at washington for recognizing jerusalem as the israeli capital and claiming america is not committed to the peace process. one of. the us administration took an unlawful decision which was rejected by the international community to take the issue of jerusalem off the table and to recognize the city as israel's capital. we're ready to begin negotiations

immediately in order to achieve peace and security for all in our region and the world. well after he finished speaking out stood up and walked out of the meeting not waiting for a response from the u.s. envoy to the holy. even though he has left the room i will dress the balance of the narrow marks to him. president last i said here today offering the outstretched hand of the united states to the palestinian people but i will decline the advice i was recently given by your top negotiator so i erekat i will not shut up we go reaction from the editor of the palestine chronicle who says recent developments show that america is now becoming a third wheel in the israeli palestinian peace process so us has lost its top artists have beaten any kind of international mechanism. to bring

peace and reconciliation between palestine and israel they have lost their right to do so when they decided to flee and biased and. what is really position us has never been honest peace broker mahmoud abbas trying to send a message to the palestinian. that after decades of pursuing this fruitless and futile peace process and nothing has been achieved as a result of this message to the palestinian people that i'm still here and i'm still fighting and i'm still challenging the american diktats and american foreign policy. america's prestigious yale university is launching a new study program aimed at deconstructing what it means to be white in modern day american society but not everyone's happy about it samir khan now explained. racial tensions in the u.s.

go back centuries from colonization and genocide to slavery and racial segregation the country's troubled past continues to fuel and tag an ism between the races and people of color have a waged war on what they see as a system that favors white supremacy but what's been happening in the us seems to have turned the tables reinforcing the conversation on so-called reverse racism for example yale university has introduced a force in countering whiteness through plays poems and memoirs and to quote the program constructing whiteness counter narratives in any creative form and it's not just yale many universities in the us are making quote white awareness programs available but critics are fighting back or using that white awareness programs are just as racist as black or honest ones in another extremely divisive case some women of color felt isolated and unsafe in their communities so they organized a healing retreat and coast rica and then banned white people from attending to white people is to let us have our space let us have our room and go hang out with

other white people broke a you know you've done enough damage well of course screams of hypocrisy and reverse racism ensued and then there's this picture depicting black women beheading white women the artist explained it's a quote unquote sort of a play on the kill whitey thing critics are outraged alleging well you guessed it reverse racism they say imagine what would happen if a white person was shown chopping off a black woman's head however when it comes to all of these claims reverse racism may not exactly stand up to scrutiny when looking at the history of the country's racial dynamics but whether or not these cases qualify as hypocrisy or reverse racism the question remains will any of this actually qual racial tensions in the u.s. or will this only result in further polarization. so r t washington d.c. social commentator anthony bryan logan believes some of the criticism would be received very differently if white people were behind them. if it was a white woman holding

a black woman say if the painter were away the painter would be called everything he'd be called a neo nazi supremacist because the default reaction to anybody white doing something against somebody black or even painting a picture is to say that white person is a racist because the default thought process is dead why people are racist anyway and there's some say that if you're not white you can not be races which is really ridiculous there's been a lot of things floating around about white supremacy as of late that these things become normalized is seen as a rational thing to say in public so people again they get to feel guilty any want to tell everybody hey i'm not a racist look at me i'm fightin the gays the white man are fighting to get by supremacies you get some white people they say to even hate whites and say how do you hate whites your way it doesn't make any sense was like do you hate your parents do you hate your grandparents is really a crazy thing. where there's a mixtape all but wiped out in syria and iraq dozens of children of the group

fighters have been left stranded but for some of them there is hope that their relatives will be found thanks to a campaign by r.t. ten youngsters have been able to return home and the latest is a young boy called ziad who was left to survive as an orphan and the iraqi capital . doesn't work. for. us. because that is the i just. want to. say it was my this was your idea to missile get

away. well. this mean this. is i. think you know. the waiting is almost over to later on wednesday off to months of legal procedures that is it will finally be able to see his relatives once again he's going to travel to moscow and then take another flight to his home town will be at the airport his arrival as he welcomed home and reunited with his family. this is all t two world records in fifteen minutes for russian figure skaters at the winter olympics we're live at the games after the break.

to you something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. some want to. let you go right to be for us this is what before three of them all can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters in the. city. still seems wrong but. just don't. get to shape our. active. engagement equals betrayal. when some find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

again two world records in the space of just fifteen minutes for russian athletes at the winter olympics in south korea the first was set by figure skater you have met in the women's short program her school was then taught minutes later by her teammates alina and i get to the let's go live to pyongyang now our correspondent is trying to. it's great news but you can't help but feel some sympathy for you have a moment of glory somewhat short lived take us through it. hi colleen well it's amazing isn't it as you were saying two world records within the

space of just a few minutes and it looks like the female bank figure skating competition is turning into this had to head clash between two russian girls eighteen year old the again and fifteen year old eileen is the eaves of other girls have one coach they are from one country but of course there's only one gold medal to win here and young chan i can tell you that the rest of the competitors are way too far behind so perhaps they have no chance for it the two russian girls have already shown what they're capable of and the team competition they received record breaking scores back then too but after ziggy that was performance one american figure skater who's not even taken part in these the lympics tweeted literally it's not a performance it's not a program so you know with these winter olympics if you believe the doping story

the doping scandal aside the story has been that team o.e. are would always get bad press from someone no matter if they win or if they lose for example when the russian female asked hogg ice hockey team sorry we're receiving we're really having a nightmare with the group stage usa today called them bogus and said so many nasty things felt as if the author was having something personal against the russian team but when the man squad who by the way are going to take on norway in the quarterfinals and just about an hour when these guys be team usa four to nothing they were blamed for all kinds of things the likes of fistfights or using their strongest line up in the last few minutes of the game and so why. that the russian hockey veterans have said that young chang it almost feels like they're back in the

nineteen eighties the time of the cold war but we're not going to see any of that tension at least at the ice hockey arenas any more when it comes to the men's tournament because team usa have just lost to the czech republic and they're out of the playoffs ok for now if you are trying to the olympics in south korea thanks for that. picking up on what he was losing to the russian olympic curling who tested positive for a banned substances insisted he would never have taken it intentionally on tuesday russian sports officials confirm the both of alexander crucial samples contain the traces of melburnians the amount detected suggests that only one dose was consumed the drugs believed to help improve recovery times after intense exercise and it's been banned since twenty sixteen all of crucial previous tests have come up negative this last sample was taken at the end of january last week the athlete won

bronze in the mixed doubles curling alongside his wife the first ever medal in russia in the discipline the president of the russian curling federation things crucial may have been spiked. brought down there so what more just be truth is that alexander didn't intentionally take the banned substance we've asked investigators to find out how it could have ended up in his body without his knowing to put it bluntly he could have been spiked the experts concluded that it was a single dose taken in the past several weeks or even days now who in his right mind would take a banned substance knowing that he's one of the top competitors in facing increased gruesomely i've known alexander for many years and it's been a long road for him and anastasia and all of that just to take a tablet so foolishly i'm sure it wasn't either. but we got in touch with the creator of mel boney and he told us he doesn't think reform it would have knowingly used the drug given the scrutiny that russian athletes are facing he also said that a single dose would not enhance an athlete's performance now we also heard

from the russian olympic committee's press secretary he also stressed that it made no sense of a cross on it's going to take about substance. one hardly ever sees the opening curling it's not needed there every athlete doctor or sports official will tell you that moreover those two curlers have passed over you can test in the past two years alone with even when they were preparing for the olympics and have never ever had a need there have been violations considering how close the russian athletes have been watched this lympics of taking a banned substance two weeks before the event is just sports it was side. next for you an inspiring story from russia's far east that of a woman with off as a man who despite all the challenges she faces manages to keep a positive outlook on life. that i can when i was

a kid other children bullet me tarnished me took away my food there was one old lady at school i janitor she always had a piece of bread and butter for me but the very moment i started eating other children beat me and that woman was the only one protecting me she even a company a home. out just. how. the beginning will i got pregnant and had bad talk psychosis i didn't tell anyone at first but started to feel so bad and so went to hospital that the doctors said i have to have an abortion i agreed but i just didn't know that subsequences can have treated me as no one told me. that that. is. you know. this. and that then you see dealing knew she couldn't see the couldn't stand. doctors
