teaching terror a u.k. court convicts an islamic state follower who showed school children images of beheadings and was attempting to create an army of young extremists. western media speculates about an arms race between russia and america after president putin reveals details of his country's new and cutting edge nuclear arsenal we look at whether the headlines reflect the reality of the situation. and we hear exclusively from the controversial leader of the dutch party for freedom who's under fire at home for promoting russia. relations during a recent visit to moscow. broadcasting

live from our studios in moscow this is art international and sean thomas glad to have you with us now a teacher at an islamic academy for eleven to fourteen year olds in england has been found guilty of trying to assemble an army of child terrorists to carry out an attack in london here's how the chief of the city's anti terror police described. activities during his time at the school. he was getting those children to reenact the westminster attack he was getting them to reenact not just the westminster attack but also how to attack police officers but on top of that he was showing them very concerning terrorist related propaganda videos videos such as beheading videos yet keep our laws them with fear from the point of view that if they raise the alarm then something similar would happen to them the twenty five year old had been described as

a self-styled educator and was allowed to teach islamic studies in schools he is said to have come into contact with two hundred and fifty children and he attempted to indoctrinate more than one hundred that is despite having no teaching qualifications and only having been employed as and administrator now let us take a closer look at how he tried to radicalize the young people he was in fact supervising it seems that in class he would show students images of the beheadings as well as militants burning their european passports for the extremist cause he also had the children act out terror atrocities on top of that had k put the youngsters through physical training making them do strength building drills and pushups they also made them take an oath of silence regarding the classes former london police officer peter kirkwood told us the case casts a serious shadow over the school's management. it would appear from the small

amount of information that's in the public's mind that he was doing this over within the class behind closed doors and. in after school activities as well and he was quite careful to make sure no one else was around told the children not to tell anybody and make sure it was done behind closed doors it does so the belief properly organized to manage school. allow something like this to go on without noticing it and without knowing what goes on behind closed doors. case indoctrination classes that took place at a small private islamic school in london called the lantern of knowledge it back in november two thousand and fifteen the u.k.'s education watchdog rated it as outstanding of steads inspection took place while he was still a teacher there and had no concerns were raised by the authorities at the time the school has also stressed that no one expressed concerns about his behavior to its management anti-terrorism expert tomato pay

a lot of dough that told us that britain needs to better regulate what is taught at islamic schools. the muslim leadership need to sit up and show that they put their house in order and the government also need to assure that your abilities does groups to ensure that the lessons which the teaching behind closed doors are visible for everyone to see that everybody knows what is being taught the parents are fully aware of the lesson because if the teachers deviate in a way from the less is then definitely you know this will have been quite place like teaching mathematics and deviated to teach about terrorism everybody will of known somethin somethin is going wrong and this is where we need to really work on the curriculums in this school and they should go out to assure that these groups are be regulated. russia's military might have grabbed international attention this

week after president putin undealt of the country's new arsenal of nuclear weapons and many media outlets are now speculating if there will be a new arms race between moscow and washington but the numbers indicate that is not the case as archie's mudguards they have comments. the news this week might have seemed a little apocalyptic cold war in big bold letters arms race the pundits squeaked but then war always sells best several analysts in the west have said this is the declaration of a new cold war are we in a new arms race right now my point of view as the individuals who have said the new cold war has started are not really analysts they do propaganda if you were to speak about arms race than an arms race began at exactly the time and moment when the u.s. opted out of the anti-ballistic missile treaty how odd and here i thought that surely it takes at least two to make a noms race do not want a new cold war or

a new arms race someone's lying the money was a completely different story the us military budget just jumped no wrong word surged from six hundred forty billion to seven hundred billion in one year and they're proud of it arms race right on cue russia's budget trying well isn't that anticlimactic for a second year in a row no less the imbalance here is almost almost funny the us war budgets increased in one year by more than russia spends on its military annually the pentagon's spend fifteen times more that one thousand five hundred percent more on its military than moscow heck even saudi arabia spends more on its military than russia and that's not even counting nato all our us are committed to

increase the fun spending share of g.d.p. the direction of travel is clear but we have to continue to move in that direction it's a fair. demand that all who benefit from the best defense in the world carry their proportionate share of the mystery cost to defend freedom these grave security concerns are the same reason that i have been very very direct with secretary in saying that nato members must finally contribute their fair share and meet their financial obligations other nations must be prepared to take responsibility and that includes more investment in defense why is nato raising military budgets in some cases doubling them if its closest competition is reducing spending i may have been wrong here they're evidently ease. one man

race and you obviously do two for this tango. the leader of the dutch party for freedom has been criticized for a public display of solidarity with russia we recently visited the country's lower house of parliament the state duma where he wore a russia netherlands friendship in something the dutch press took exception to willis is never far from controversy though having earned a reputation with statements like these if you like islam and if you want more mosques or you moms you may have it but not here i'm very happily surprised with politicians like donald trump you know it's a kind of refreshment the fresh air in the room where the windows have been close for too long the netherlands have become a sick country fighting the islam is a she will also make our countries more safe. well throughout his career wilderness

has been labeled as a provocative or and islamophobia and more recently the dutch donald trump has also been convicted of inciting discrimination against a dutch moroccans artist neil harvey talked to realtors about islam god his haircut and vladimir putin you can catch the full interview at r.t. dot com today in europe we face even something worse than an economical problem we face what i call an x. this problem because of all those open borders that we have and the invitations of leaders like uncle america who said to be a shot from this we will make it come into our society and for the last decades millions of people have come and they unfortunately not always assimilate that that is a toxic combination to have open borders and know the immense of assimilation integration of foreigners and your own society unfortunately i believe that islam is not there

to assimilate people can assimilate with the islamic ideology will not have you have it just a little i still self and just thought you know i'm on the wrong side of this will history judge me that i got this wrong i'm not a historian and i cannot speak about future people are they remember me that would be court desk will not do that but i really truly believe in what i'm doing. there is a gas war heating up between russia and ukraine the country's major energy firms are locked in a battle over the price of supplying ukraine with fuel and much should be paid for delivering russian gas into europe the dispute worsened on friday when an arbitration court in stockholm walled in favor of ukraine's gas monopoly earlier my colleague kevin owen and got the details from correspondent city. it seems this new

gas war is unfolding between russia and ukraine the legal conflict now has been going on for more than three years between russia's gas giant gazprom and ukraine snuff their gas now the decision follows a verdict of the stock came up tracing of course they've ordered now fdic us to pay gazprom two billion dollars they've ordered the russian company to compensate snuff their gas with almost five billion dollars now these disputes their initially over gas problem demanding payments of debts for gas to live it in ukraine back in twenty fourteen after gas demanding it was compensation for not pumping these agreed volumes of gas now ukraine has praised the course decision but the c.e.o. of has said there's a session is very asymmetric now arbitrates is justified a decision by the short deterioration in the ukrainian economy where categorically against the grain is economic problems been solved. or are those really cold across europe is compiled from britain is really chilly there the big question is going to

be among a lot of skeptical europeans are we going to have some problems with gas is the going to be the gas disruption to europe what's the answer exactly well this temptation will affect to contracts the shipment of natural gas to ukraine's now take us also the tranced of gas to european territory by ukraine now we know like you said europe is experiencing the beast from the east this cold wave across the continent and russia's gas supplies account for over thirty percent of the european market but you know there's no immediate worry present russia's energy minister has told the european commission that the gas transit from russia to europe is a any immediate threat these contracts take time to process it could be between one to three years before we see any effect this but experts say countries that would be at greatest risk would be the balkan countries bulgaria and hungry but this represents a new chapter now in the long running disagreements must go and care for all.

international lawyer and political commentator dan told us the court's decision might have an ulterior motive. i think you know it leads one to believe that the decision was very politically motivated and of course these days the west is very much in the mood to punish russia. and so i think russia has a point to believe that in fact. the decision may not have been particularly fair towards the u.s. of course would like to be the supplier. to europe and maybe they would look. to the u.s. . at some point as a substitute in fact most people think that the sanctions that the u.s. imposed over the summer. against russia's natural gas company were designed for the u.s. to be able to muscle into the european market that's a reason why russia i think would never cut off the supply to europe because they

know that the u.s. might rush right it. at least twenty people including seven officers have been injured in clashes between anti-government protesters and police in the act of violence erupted during a raid on a makeshift camp you know the parliament building and the camp was set up in october by activists calling for political reform police encountered strong resistance from the protesters at the site it's already saying more than one hundred arrests were made some in connection to unrest earlier in the year they also say ten grenades as well as a fire and smoke bombs were recovered. to hollywood now where the disgraced movie producer harvey weinstein is making an unusual reappearance a street artist has erected a golden statue of weinstein clutching an oscar near the theater where sunday's academy awards will be held. for mark hughes in case you missed it explains even

groups whom turkey considers terrorists. the infamous so-called russian trolls have finally revealed themselves in a series of tongue in cheek video contractions they say they were the ones who influenced the u.s. presidential election. my name is ethan sokol and i'm from new jersey so according to our beloved corporate media i'm a russian by my name is danielle st john from california and i am a russian but my name is will mark i'm from california and i am a russian bot the people in the video as you heard are in fact american activists who believe the media has hyped up russia's perceived reach online they made their so-called confessions an effort to point out that they themselves chose whom to vote for. thank the media pushes this narrative that russia is to blame for everything russian activity and see russia is hacked into a lot of things massive inner ferret american elections but if that's the case why

didn't the d.n.c. love the f.b.i. look at their servers. it wasn't russia it was that it's not just on the facebook groups they're also there on the ground you know protesting and i personally made more means in this election that about hillary clinton then the anybody in russia i'm sure there'd be a lot of messages we can gives about politicians out there but this is the side this is just us your social media feed may have been part of russia's interference in the election. you started to get accused as you know russian troll or russian bodywork thinking ourselves we don't even speak russian that's the mass of america being misrepresented see the world their ties with the kremlin their russian their profit if we start to think ok they're really trying to mess with us. they were chicken oh shy of the argument to try to just raise the bar for anybody

who was paying attention to the two thousand and sixteen election knows how much election fraud was going on we know where the actual collusion what it was between the d.n.c. in the mainstream media is full russian and the narrative is the huge smoke screen to distract from all the for option in the democratic party and you know the republican party has been running for congress actually one politician this weekend basically laughed at me that unless you have a million dollars you can see it's not the record you know we're all oppressed by the c. system. we're not taking any corporate money the mainstream media pundits their elite all the politicians they're all they're all property off the bar our division all of our big. so he needs a point that you just give and demonstrate that. you feel.

better to me so i'm going to stick used to greener being looked at arsenal better get out. on russia i'm no reaction to your reaction. to russian students have discovered a new island in the arctic event has been exposed by a retreating glacier is part of the formation while analyzing satellite images of the. archipelago and have made the unexpected find they are now trying to come up with a name port. their success from one thousand fifty two to two thousand and one it was a solid last year and then it broke into no than and soudan parts we started watching the second one.

i don't know if we all vote well but the motion was so there are tons of that on and we kept watching as a connecting street got small and small and fun in december we got a picture of the forty four minute and. guys tell us when we suddenly became groundbreakers we began to treat all those great discoveries in a different way and i still can't believe we became a part of this world. looks like as well our suggestion is based on the form of the all i know which looks like a manatee but the scientists and i told him that there are a lot of pupils and we like the same as well. i have

a personal suggestion i think it should be called sean thomas island but i don't think we're going to take that thought international stay with us more news in about thirty five minutes.

what politicians do. they put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or some want to be rich. that you'd like to be for us that's what the before three in the morning can people get. interested in the waters of. the city. but no one talks so you on the idea that dropping bombs brings police to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles going. to new socks for the tell you that every gossip and public bus files are the most important news today. on the box of advertising telling me you are not cool enough to buy their product. all the hawks that we along with all the one.

i'm done some is not so is not i can quit places called a good country and. try to secure the minister there but among us well above the slim. figure that's going to get us to call that is. the title of the flagellum say oh. ok let's do it with the shutters yes. just for the embrace from the rim of the one still to be the middle. of the scale of this fossil. play almost anything for the numbers for the base and i think our data john said i'm based on on my show last night no one can i do the last call we just like this from happening matter how anomaly it came. from a shot. from the front man i cannot believe he was telling us you are now with the falcon on the. sister of the sun and now fargo show you will see about all of them

going to the cities in the michael. boys as in his or the one of the sleep the. cinema of our government allows is. this you know this was what. led. to live. a good enough whose show were americans in america covering american news or a cold foreign agents. who were hidden core of the demo. radek national

committee's lawyers argued that the d.n.c. has the right to rig the primary election because it's a matter of free speech. like seriously seriously said that if the judge you do agree it's illegal for the d.n.c. to defraud their donors by rigging the primary it would run directly contrary to longstanding supreme court precedent recognizing the central and critical first amendment rights enjoyed by political parties they used to punch a lot terminology to disguise the reality but they indeed said basically the constitution gives them the right to regard elections which i think is actually the opposite of what the constitution says that's like arguing that your marriage contract says you have a lot of other people. so seeing as the twenty eighteen midterms are just around the corner i thought this would be a good time

a lovely time in which to go through how much of the problem we've fixed from left to right because because i mean we all agree that the twenty sixteen election in terms of integrity and honesty and fairness was just a. train wreck of a. purports it was like a dream rig was a dream don't feel like a puppy your friend in just just careens off into like a dolphin tank and there's just tall thin and poppy parts raining down were like rigs like over the cockpit. that's why did that happen i hope some of us thought well gee how do we fix this for max. let's start off with the only thing the mainstream media wants to talk about really the moeller indictments accused a russian click bait farm of posting images of jesus arm wrestling satan on facebook. that's one of the real images.
