they also did role plays during these classes where some would act as police officers others would act as terrorists carrying out beheadings and he tried to prepare the kids physically as well he would have them running around and doing push ups he'd tell them not to talk to anyone in fact he made them take an oath of silence and many of the kids said that they were paralyzed by fear they thought he would hurt them if they were to talk to anybody about what he was teaching them was particularly interesting here and what's going to probably lead to a few questions to the government is how the where this school was taking place was considered a very good school it's a fee paying muslim school so parents are paying around three thousand pounds a year for their kids to be brainwashed by hack and the institution that judges the school off stead it's relied upon by many parents it's something that a lot of people look to the rating was outstanding that's the top rating that

a school can get this story appears to cost the reputation of that particular institution into doubt and back had to be dragged out of court during his case today he had to be dragged out of the dock he was shouting while he ranted and the judge is going to be sentencing him a little bit later on. reporting live from london thank you for bringing us that update. the u.s. state department has approved the possible multi-million dollar sale of javelin anti-tank missiles launch units to ukraine two hundred missiles and thirty seven launch units are expected to be sent to ukraine in december the deal is worth almost fifty million dollars independent political analyst durham glazebrook says that this move shows the u.s. interest in escalating the ukrainian conflict. back to last december and there were signs of the escalation but unfortunate as there's been this there's been

a tendency since right back to the beginning of this conflict that whenever there are such signs of the escalation the u.s. and its allies will do a move make a move such as this that will add fuel to the fire of the conflict in order to keep it going that's been the that's been a tendency right since the early days of the conflict when when times were first sent into eastern ukraine there were signs of fraternizing amongst the troops the u.s. wants to see this conflict simmering and wants to destabilize russia's borders it wants to ensure that they're hostile relations remain between ukraine and moscow. a video has emerged showing the moments leading up to a palestinian man's death during an israeli armed raid in the west bank just a warning you may find the following scenes upsetting yes in a saudi can be seen running down an alley wielding an object of some kind he is then shot at by an israeli soldier the soldier and his colleagues proceed to kick him on the ground and then drag him along another alley he died later from his

injuries this israeli army has changed its version of events several times firstly the i.d.f. said he attacked the soldiers with a knife and received first aid at the scene but then it said he attacked them with an iron bar and was taken to the hospital now according to the i.d.f. latest statement us are already died from tear gas inhalation the soldier who opened fire on us or audit was was interviewed by i.d.f. investigators and he claimed he thought his life was in danger we have also gathered some opposing views from our guests. they're incited to deal with the palestinians as subhumans and the whole rhetoric of india to dehumanizing palestinian people is something that the israeli army and now even schools they can save people's life and they can avoid killing people but old dehumanization of the palestinian people that makes them act in such

a criminal fashion i don't know whether you've removed the best best. situation that it's very complicated if the army would stick to a law if they would stick the first version but that the army was friends in syria . to defend for free the first version and later on the stand that it was a mistake and change incorrect and so developments that to cut off the words that deserve a really really investigation. is almost militants are being blamed for an attack on the capital of the west african country of turkey in a file so the attackers targeted the french embassy and the french institute as well as a military headquarters the u.n. and the prime minister also have offices in the same neighborhood authorities called the assault an act of terror six militants were killed although seven soldiers also lost their lives six people were said to have been injured.

trade wars are good and easy to when but maybe only if you're america that's what donald trump tweeted after he announced huge tariffs on steel and aluminum imports in the u.s. to the u.s. excuse me but we're going to be instituting tariffs next week will be siding we're going to have new jobs popping up we're going to have much more vibrant companies and then the rest is going to be up to management to make a truly great. trump's move threatens to cast a major blow to world markets some of the largest global steel and aluminum exporters have already suggested they might retaliate the european union has said it will react firmly to defend its interests and follow countermeasures germany warned of this thing saying washington should be clear about its intentions canada joined the chorus as well and strong words also were heard from china. us to seriously harm the interests of chinese many i'm fooling exclusives in china

head by expresses dissatisfaction to counter the wrong practices of the us china will take necessary measures to defend this and it just meant rights and interests . of china expert andrew long believes trump's move will not only spark an international trade war but could also backfire on washington itself. this measure . ripping up the rules of in the national trade and secondly it's not going to do america any good because. of the cost the pressure of production so the costs much more to produce the same thing in the united states to other countries so this is the they're more than the economy where everything is connected and by lapping this paris on steel it's not going to bring. the american steel industry competitive what is being affected the united states immediately would be the cost of a lot of jobs at stake inside america so i think that this is really going against

the grain and also other countries that there was a loss of. instruments. in. and then likely it's going to start a trade war which is not good for anyone. the u.s. government overspent by a whopping one point two trillion dollars last year according to its treasury that's roughly the size of the economy of spain or us trail but for many of the problem isn't the overspend it's what the money wasn't used for. is the biggest economy in the world and boiling faster than anyone else is and things will only get better at least that's what the new federal reserve chairman says the u.s. economy grew at a solid pace over the second half of two thousand and seventeen into this year it was a good year by any standard for the u.s. economy the same could be said about the country's next. peaking at

a gargantuan one point two trillion dollars. one point two trillion the board has a shopping list of things that go so way. we will build a new person trying still desperate for his beloved meat this county seeking congress' approval for its eighteen billion dollars calls. well with that lost money that donald could have delighted in six hundred and sixty seven. there are millions of kids in this country today because of the economic circumstances never believe they're going to be able to make it the college the lost money could also have been a life saver for any young american but he believes only forty seven billion is needed for free higher education for all so that one point two trillion could have paid for everyone's education for twenty six years straight. so how about a ferrari free for all six and

a half million of the promising horses could have promised their way straight on to people's drawing a little decadent perhaps but surely still base of them waving that money goodbye and still calling it a good year writes. but maybe the american people will see some of this money in the not so distant future when you've guessed it things are going to get even better the next couple of years look quite strong and you should see strong demand from consumers you see and businesses investing and i would expect the next two years on the current path to be you know to be good years for the economy we have deficits and debt you know in the last fifteen years the national debt has gone from four trillion twenty trillion now it's going to go another five ten trillion but they're not concerned about that that's so wrong as as they can keep private investors around the world when u.s. treasury bonds u.s. has been flooding the global economy for decades now with dollars and the agreement is ok we'll keep doing that long as you folks keep recycling that money and

bringing it back to the u.s. so as long as it works you keep cutting taxes they believe thank you for increasing war spending so you know let's go ahead and give ourselves tax cuts and you know let's build our military even even more than it is because now when the u.s. is obviously traveling towards china in asia and that's going to cost a lot more. in terms of name calling and force. developing equipment developed it and you know that's the future that they're looking at. with russia's presidential election just over two weeks away the hopefuls have been sparring in a televised debate and while vladimir putin sorted out things got pretty heated for those that took part. you to. be an iced up arsonist. and they get a little booklet that signals the one that watches the signs of a busboy in the tree i'm up i don't know about your life. good at you

know if. you would because because of the all star study you spoke prose lucian bute did a sheer. death of sumo the premium for this is the most ready for that would be to start him for it see what i would say when they're older. than you by the score no rule because it just goes with this goes your data point is this or that. global colby's really good good when you stick to one principle yes you can do what you do it just. kills the sign of the to do it i need to spend huge the programs not smoking the shit i shouldn't get off because that you just shared with not i have i not but over the years you i do think you know you are free and there. is a muslim you have your religion looks good to you but i just want to share my feelings do you know let me set the terrible if you close it is

a good new push them of the suitable the bumps you. look at their dispute with the most but even though we only get dark still be huge and you can i did it because i did the because you think you are but especially when bunch. well another country is also gearing up for a key vote its just two days before italy holds a general election and poll so far indicate their shift their shifting support for the party is the ruling democratic party has dropped down to second place with the anti-establishment five star movement leading with twenty eight percent as you can see from this chart for say tallia and leader nord are forecast to come in third and fourth both parties are known for their tough stance on immigration. r t is an associate churkin is in rome at a five star movement rally and joins us live now now on this what is the current sentiment in italy right now just before the election. well jacqueline of the main sentiment here seems to be one of confusion and chaos because not only is

a huge chunk of the population still undecided ahead of sunday's vote but also italy's going to the polls using an untested election system where parties are encouraged to form coalitions even before people go to the polls now are part from that there are lots of curiosities about some of the old faces as well as brand new faces that are appearing in this election right now we are at the five star movement final campaign rally where this is a movement that was set up back in two thousand and nine by a comedian which a friend essentially started as an online movement which is now a big political force to be reckoned with in italy it is spearheaded by a thirty one year old luigi demaio and there are euro skeptic there anti-establishment the don't fall within the left or right and one of the bigger contenders in this election that are going forward as a single party now fifty years the senior of that leader we have four time italian prime minister silvio berlusconi who is in his eighty's who cannot actually be

trying to get a place in power given his former criminal convictions but he's certainly the face of one of the bigger central right movements which is forte tahlia which is in fact in a coalition with leggo which is a right wing group and we also have the former prime minister of italy matel renzi who is in charge of the jemma chronic party now this is a man who put his entire career at stake out a referendum where he feels that he had to step down leaving italy with a caretaker government back at the end of twenty sixteen which is you know it's hard throughout this time so the goal of this election is to put affairs by. in order in italy however with these new rules and all of these different contenders there are lots of questions about whether or not there is going to be any kind of stable government formed here following sunday's election with almost all analysts saying that no one is likely to get forward in terms of being able to form

a majority and all of these different systems being used are leading analysts to say that it's anyone's guess what's going to happen here on sunday and that you need a magic wall to be able to determine what's going to unravel but you actually is quite crucial of course with italy being the fourth largest economy in the european union they have a huge public debt on incremental very high here as well as the economy being quite stagnant with this being such a big part of the. in terms of determining what happens in europe moving forward certainly throughout the european union throughout europe people are watching what exactly is going to be unraveling during this election and that will take place sunday and of course we'll be here to watch what happens marketeers and the future king of staying across the upcoming election for us thank you so much for the update. your. allegations have surfaced that someone's been trying to influence the upcoming italian election this time it's not a foreign power trying to meddle but an actress and model she claims she's been

blocked from instagram over the potential so she could have on the upcoming election i was browsing on my normally were out of a sudden the screen disappeared i was very surprised i never violated instagram policy gadflies someone of the society did that i might influence. the public opinion on a distance. oh if only you know how the history of unconventional campaigning on social media she first had to have lines back in two thousand and sixteen that was during a referendum on constitutional reforms when she wanted a controversial campaign against the move the activists promised free sexual services for those who voted no and she claims she made good on her promise by campaigning was not strictly political i created a pompadour as in that stating my opinion about them and

and bringing a lot of attention. to the disease sure basically i was against. reform they proposed potentially arming seated sense right. i am super proud of my country i love being italian and. i think that is an amazing country. i just want that people to vote with their heart and candidate. whoever and wherever would win them in. can war to create a bad award for all of us for our children and it's just that a lot of talented guys as to get out. because i think he

because there is no war i think that anything we deserve more than we have right now i want people to be social volk. the football world cup in russia is fast approaching and argentina are one of the hot favorites for the biggest event in the sport and last go chose or the cowboys as their nickname are desperate to go one better after losing in the two thousand and fourteen final or to stan collymore travels to the country's capital where argentina lodge in rome roberto arreola told about the country's love for the beautiful game. the stan collymore show has come to argentina what is or is in fact the capital one of the world's biggest football clubs a river play a. little argentina is a football country and a country of passion once you start winning people expect you to win always helps this puts more weight on the shoulders but this is why everybody loves playing for

the national team and the men but i think i think now there are two or three teams in the world now better than argentina first brazil germany and spain and then now there will have messi out seemed to have a chance to win. but . i can tell you. that's a wrap up of today's headlines for now but i'll be back at the top hour with more to do stay with us.

separated by three thousand miles when we think of hollywood we don't necessarily associate it with washington called. imitate and reflects life whether promoting lifestyles idiology cold war the media has a powerful. hold public opinion. hollywood greats perception of the little.

we know politicians court hollywood stars for support katy perry is paid over seventy thousand dollars to perform for the hillary clinton campaign well it seems no money was needed for that eastwood to stump at their public and national convention in two thousand and twelve harvey weinstein's ties to the clintons and barack obama ran deeper than the millions of dollars of campaign contributions he's raised obama's daughter malia went to in turn for the weinstein company after his presidency a political campaign support should be expected from citizens celebrity or not. the deeper threat arises when film and media are influenced to tell stories on behalf of the political establishment such products could be construed as propaganda. they were. told he would. have some kind of relationship with the cia and department of defense and off

a long list of individuals that we have in the book i mean look at these people have visited langley and some of them have a close connection. so ben affleck for instance but affleck former wife jennifer got it on paper equipment out of the cia in early two thousand and thirteen americans might have found it curious to see the first lady appear via satellite at the academy awards ceremony to announce the best picture oscar for a film about the rescue of american hostages in iran in one nine hundred eighty by the cia well when i think of other films big films that have conveyed the cia's message i think argo argo was a film that talks about the daring do of a couple of cia and soon to go to iran and rescue six american diplomats the iranians wanted to let go of those hostages pretty quickly they didn't really want to cause a problem with the united states of america but i had told the khamenei who is

meant personified as evil and the u.s. press had made a deal with the reagan administration urged the reagan campaign at that point not to release the hostages and only after reagan had been elected strangely enough that day the hostages were released so that bill neglects to mention how pivotal regnum ministration was for breaking campaign was in making sure that those hostages were released it was called the october so. ries the october surprise may have set the stage for the iran contra scandal of the one nine hundred eighty s. as reagan's white house cut deals with the iranian government to sell them arms in exchange for assistance and releasing american hostages including cia agents in lebanon the proceeds from those on cells release diverted to the contra armies fighting to overthrow the socialist government in nicaragua he betrayed america what he had done was far worse than nixon and watergate and here was reagan that

way with it katharine graham he was one of the leaders of the conservative movement there to kill off he said no more watergate's because she said the country can't survive it so when the iran contra broke there was no cooperation from the media to go after reagan on that. so for example in one thousand nine hundred fold it was a film called countermeasures which had been scripted in green and it was going to start to go any we've seen it davis it was you know big big production but it was on an aircraft carrier and it referred to iran contra the cia gunrunning scandal involving iran and the correct you're now salvador and so on and the military literally said in a memo we have no reason to remind the american public of the iran contra scandal although to denigrate the white house. that is the mentality that so they with they

said no we won't provide next rocker if you're filming and the film was therefore never made even though it was a long way down the track now that happens time and time and time and time again which ultimately changes the culture the popular culture in the united states and across the west by changing the popular culture you're also playing havoc with the political culture as well. in two thousand and seventeen tom cruise starred in american made a film exposing the dark side of iran contra sleep. the cia knew drugs were being smuggled into america to facilitate financing their contra armies but the film did its best to portray one of the smugglers very seal as an independent wild card rather than a lifelong cia asset. was one of the most important covert operatives of the us in the time of the bay of pigs and yet this movie has the cia first learning about him when they see that he successfully smuggling cigars from

cuba the director doug lehman is the son of the house majority counsel to the kerry commission that looked into iran contra he never got to the bottom of the contra cocaine thing but his dad was generally looked upon as a good guy but i do research into personal he's the guy that made oliver north bemis it was as a result of his inept questioning that oliver north became america's hero and then i find out that this guy his father also was a personal attorney for henry kissinger personal journey for robert best go personal journey for michael milken and the list goes on father arthur was not part of the subsequent carry subcommittee's. field cocaine smuggling in the conscious supply.

when journalist gary webb published articles in the san jose mercury to better elucidate their relationship between cia and other agencies that protected contra drug trafficking he was right out of mainstream journalism his story was finally told in two thousand and fourteen. kill the messenger gary webb you know was a really great investigative reporter who broke a story right at the beginning of the internet era was actually the first big internet news exposé and it involved some geishas of cia connected drug sales in the one nine hundred eighty s. and l. a big as crack campaign freeway ricky ross who is well known to the public because the l.a. times already called him the kingpin of crack cocaine the person most responsible for the rise of the drug epidemic gary webb came along and revealed that

nicaraguans working with the cia had actually provided him with cheap cocaine for all these years the three major newspapers all stepped in with the washington post which has traditionally been like the attack dog of the cia over the decades and to a certain extent still is they just attacked gary story and then attacked kerry's entire career and try to discredit and drove him out of journalism nothing like that is ever happened before a sense to my knowledge and again as you mentioned it drove him out of journalism and ultimately destroyed his life the relationship between the ruling elite and media has existed since the origin of newspapers but in one thousand seventeen congressman callaway and more sounded the alarm that the j.p. morgan bank working with big steel shipping in weapons manufacturers had purchased controlling interests in twenty five of the large newspapers across the country to promote american entry into the first world war on the side of the british and french owed the morgan banks hundreds of millions of dollars in wartime debts

hollywood was quickly recruited to the war. nineteen seventeen the government started to issue with a call that the time liberty bonds and hollywood rallied to the cause and help sell these liberty bonds you had people like. mary pickford fair banks charlie chaplin and other hollywood stars out there promoting these war bonds. the whole field of public relations that the name public relations was created by a guy named bearnaise. he created the field young man specifically to sell war bonds for the first world war that was the origin of what we now know as public relations and he realized instead of telling people buy bonds too because you'll make some money off your bonds you know you know save it will help america instead it was like you're buying bonds to defeat the hun you know that killing babies in

belgium this was this was his propaganda you know this if you're if you're against killing babies in belgium by us war bonds and so the whole war bond propaganda. that was the very first use of what we today call. public relations but you also had during world war one the beginnings of government propaganda on a much larger scale much of this was run through the committee on public information that was headed by george creel and they were deliberately trying to manipulate the public to support the war and they did that on a lot of different fronts again during world war one this is the time when you had vast censorship where it was against the law to oppose the draft it was against the law to publicly speak against the war really and many very.
