live. this is are too much national 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 attacks in london here is how the chief of the city's anti terror police described case 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 in something similar would happen to them. well the twenty five year old had been described as a self-styled educator who was allowed to teach islamic studies in schools he said

to have come in contact with about two hundred fifty children and he attempted to indoctrinate over one hundred this is despite having no teaching qualifications and only having been employed as an administrator let's do a closer look at how he tried to radicalize the young people he was supervising it seemed that in class he would show students images of beheadings as well as militants burning their european passports for the extremist cause he also had the children act out terror atrocities and then on top of that high case put the youngsters through physical training making them into strength building drills and pushups he also made them take an oath of silence regarding the classes former london police officer peter kirk i'm told us the case casts a serious shadow over the school's management. it would appear from the small amount of detailed information that's in the public demand 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 no good 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. well indoctrination classes took place at a small private islamic school in london called the lantern of knowledge back in november two thousand and fifteen u.k.'s education watchdog rated it as outstanding of steads inspection took place while they were still a teacher there and no concerns that were raised by the authorities at the time the school has also stressed that no one expressed concerns about his behavior to its management and a terrorism expert. told us britain needs to better regulate what is taught at

islamic schools. the muslim leadership need to sit up on a show that they put their house in order and the government also need to assure that your abilities does groups to assure that the lessons which the teaching behind closed doors visible for everyone to see that everybody knows what is being taught the parents are fully aware of less because if the teachers deviate in a way from the less is then definitely you know this will have been quite place like teacher much much is devoted to teach about terrorism everybody would have known that some tin sultan is going wrong and this is where we need to really work on the curriculums in the schools and they should go out to ensure that these groups are regulated. russia's military might grab the international attention this week after president putin unveiled the country's new arsenal of nuclear weapons and many media outlets are now speculating that there will be

a new arms race between moscow and washington but the numbers indicate that not necessarily the case of current. 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 is the individuals who have said that a new cold war has started or 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 swan's new cold war or a new arms race someone's lying the money tells

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 shrank well isn't that anticlimactic for a second year in a row no less the imbalance here is almost almost funny the u.s. war budgets increased in one year by more than russia spends on its military annually the pentagon 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 e's an arms race 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 fielders that recently visited the country's lower house of parliament the state duma where he wore a russian other lens friendship and something the dutch press took exception to villagers 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 mom's 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 islamization will also make our countries more safe. well throughout his career builder's has been labeled as

a provocateur and islamophobia and more recently the dutch donald trump he has also been convicted of inciting discrimination against a dutch moroccans are teasing neil harvey talked to fielders about islam got his hair cut and a lot of me put it you can catch the full interview at r.t. dot com but here's a quick preview. 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 anglo-american 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 is the toxic combination to have open borders and no demands of assimilation integration of foreigners in your own society unfortunately i believe that islam is not there to assimilate people can assimilate with the islamic ideology will not

have you ever just now lies to yourself 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 remember me that would be called desk will not do it but i really truly believe in what i'm doing. well there is a gas or 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 how much kiev should be paid for delivering russian gas into europe dispute worsened on friday when an arbitration court in stockholm walled in favor of ukraine's gas market way earlier my colleague kevin owen got the details from r.t. correspondent. 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 asked to pay gas prompt two billion dollars they've ordered the russian company to compensate enough their gas with almost five billion dollars now these disputes there initially have a gas problem demanding payments of debts for gas to live it in ukraine back in twenty fourteen after gas demanding it was a compensation for not pumping these agreed volumes of gas now ukraine has praised the course decision but the c.e.o. of prime has said the decision is very asymmetrical not betrayed says justify the decision by the show of deterioration in the ukrainian economy where categorically against the cranes 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 here among a lot of skeptical europeans are we going to have some problems with gas is there

going to be any gustus ruptured to europe what's the answer exactly well this temptation will affect to contracts the shipment of natural gas to ukraine snuff take us also the tranced of gas to european territory via 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 euro. commission that the gas transit from russia to europe isn't under any immediate threat and these contracts take time to process it could be between one to three years before we see any facts at this time but experts say countries that would be at greatest risk would be the balkan countries bulgaria and hungry but this found represents a new chapter now in the long running disagreements moscow and kiev international lawyer and political commentator told us of 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 supplies 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 capital the violence erupted during a raid on a makeshift camp near the parliament building in kiev the camp was set up in october by activists calling for political reform the police encouraged a strong resistance from the protesters at the site authorities say more than one hundred arrests were made some in connection to two on raster are in the year they also say ten grenades as well as fire and smoke bombs were recovered. so hollywood now where the disgraced movie producer harvey weinstein is making an unusual reappearance and a street artist has a record a golden statue of weinstein clutching an oscar near the theater where sunday's academy awards will be held and those i suppose boyko from in case you missed it explains even the movie moguls name has understandably become something of a taboo. in case you missed it it's also

a good time and the organizers actually want to focus on the movies not politics not activism and suddenly not. be good luck. everyone's favorite hollywood second fest is going to be causing a pretty rare one shadow over this ceremony in recent years the winners will often the movies that. i wonder are used to choose which films to promote the best that saying in twenty eighteen will be taking place on the red carpet and in the order tori and boards of tuxedo men shuffling down the red carpet staring gingerly on the floor let's enjoy the spectacle of them trying not to stare in appropriately at the world's most beautiful women wearing these lengthiest gowns money can buy one thing you can rely on as it's pretty unlikely you'll see whatever a doll house will hear if he takes home one of the top prizes on school.

for what is one of the movies that people. in the running one of the front runners this year is called hold. one of the front runners this is. a law. now no sorry it's found some thread and around a hundred or so people around the world have actually paid to see it it's all about an aging man who spoke. wait. how is that ok. to campaign. in a room full of millionaire homeowners. will pay. the africa . they want for the big this yeah well one of them is all about.

being sexually harassed and he ends up sleeping with a. in. my money. and man has died after shooting himself just outside the white house in washington the u.s. secret service said a gun was fired outside the northern promotor fence the white house was on lockdown for about an hour there were reports that the gunshot caused people to panic and flee the vicinity though police say no bystanders were injured president trump was in florida during the incident. there have been scuffles in berlin during a pro kurdish rally held to denounce turkey's military operation in northern syria which is a kurdish enclave the protesters want to the european union and the united nations to help stop the operation which has reportedly resulted in nearly two hundred civilian deaths the offensive started in january after u.s.

military command announced plans to create a force consisting of kurdish fighters along the turkish border and washington later backtracked but turkey's president went ahead with strikes against kurdish groups turkey considers terrorists. the infamous so called russian trolls have finally revealed themselves in a series of tongue in cheek video confessions 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 am 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 where people in the video as you just heard are in fact american activists who believe the media has hyped up russia's perceived to reach online they made their so-called confessions in an effort to point out that they themselves chose to vote for. thank you 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 in our ferrets in 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 in 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 give such as 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. and we started to get that he used as you know russian for russian bodywork thinking ourselves we don't even speak russian that's the mass of america is being misrepresented see the world their ties with the kremlin their russian elite their

fleet puppet if we start to think ok they're really trying to mess with us. they were chicken oh shards of the argument to try to just raise their voice what anybody who is 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 rushing the narrative is a huge smokescreen to distract from all the corruption in the democratic party and you know the republican party to i'm running for congress actually one politician this weekend basically laughed at me and said unless you have two million dollars you can't compete it's not the right versus left you know we're all oppressed by the c. system. we're not taking any corporate money the mainstream media pundits their elites all the politicians they're all they're all property off the

bar our division all of our big. so we need to fight that we got together and demonstrate that we are real people. being. better get out. how much. you're going. to. meanwhile dubious claims of russian connection has risen to award winning levels the new york times has secured one of the most reputable prizes in journalism for a story about president trump's ties to russia that's despite one of its articles being debunked by the f.b.i. anyway i just came up and dove in a little deeper. the george polk award is one of the most prestigious awards in journalism and the award for discovering connections between donald trump and the

russians goes to the new york times and the washington post. special recognition goes out to the star of the new york times and the washington post for their extraordinary effort in uncovering the connection between the trump presidential campaign and the kremlin that led to special counsel robot moves on going investigation yes these bold reporters investigated and uncovered that donald trump's family has direct ties to some of the russian spies now what a huge discovery no wonder they won this huge award except that's not actually true take the new york times article with the headline top campaign aides had repeated contact with russian intelligence it was debunked by f.b.i. director james comey not exactly trump's biggest fan or promoter but to be fair to characterize that story as almost entirely wrong yes people talking about it often don't really know what's going on and those of us who actually know what's going on

and not talking about it and we don't call the press to say hey you got that thing wrong about this sensitive topic we just have to leave it there so over half a year ago the story was actually refuted by former f.b.i. director james comey but still that's not to sigurd to get out of the reason that we shouldn't be proud of these journalists for their bold investigative work michael you've broken so many stories this past year and i refer to you in a column as the ubiquitous michael schmidt because you are at the center of so many of these things and breaking down what exactly are they being awarded for perhaps it was written in a particularly good prose style it gripped the reader's attention like an action novel or another good work of fiction here's what the head of the polk award said miss smartphones and social media we have never had more access to information and yet truths. it's more loose if an ad for the polk awards honor truth the new york times did run a correction like any good newspaper and earlier version of

a photo caption with this article gave an incorrect middle initial for paul man a for it is j. not d. that's what you call honest journalism at least when it comes to initials. archie new york. two russian students have it discovered a new island in the arctic that has been exposed by a retreating glacier they spotted the formation while analyzing satellite images of the. archipelago and have made the unexpected find they're now trying to come up with a name for it. just looked at from one nine hundred fifty two to two thousand and one it was a solid glass year and then it broke into no than and soudan parts we started watching the second one.

we all vote with the motion when we saw the outlines of the audit and we kept watching as a connection string got smaller and smaller and found in december we got a picture of the forty four mine. workers guys tell us when we suddenly became groundbreakers who began to treat all those great discoveries in a different way and i still can't believe we became a part of this world. would be like as well our suggestion is based on the form of they are now which looks like a manatee but the scientists are now calling it they are not pupils and would like the same as well. well my proposition for the name was a lot east la san shawn thomas but they didn't go for it here much more to

international law back with headlines of the top the hour stay with us. a plate for many flips over the years so i know the game inside guides. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch for the final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super money killian erroneous and

spending surge of the twenty million and one player. it's an experience like nothing else not to be true so i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful game played great so will more chance for. the base this minute. i would still like to be for this to call everyone in it for the sake of peace and stability that with it's the russians or the americans or the pakistanis or the indians although once by and large will be our objective is the thing which is peace and stability within the region that is the board then. whether it has been the one that's done or for the future and the presence of all foreign troops inside

of one this week and more for the future and more moral one. the pittsburgh police internal report states that the officer had repeatedly violated the rules he shouldn't have such in the car despite this why in hospital leo is told that he received twenty years of imprisonment. and putting the lives of policemen in danger. today with his family by his side near tries to get back to a normal life the officer who shot lee and still works in the pittsburgh police department.

in pittsburgh the relationship between the police and the black community is far from being good it was in home with an afro-american neighborhood that the police shot lee and forward. in these disadvantaged districts. high crime rates the gap between police and citizens is huge. we met these americans who live in poverty and who were the first victims of police abuse. people are more afraid of police than of criminals. oh faced with this fear the community gets organized after school the young gather in the house they only been home which and are between ten and sixteen years of age you guys can make it. all.
