it's here in the u.s. the news inside the white house right now meeting with president drones over here to secure and put your more u.s. weapons to be used against me i mean and yet because the market himself as a reformer who will be responsible for creating the worst humanitarian disaster on earth hands out of yemen hands out you know they are you know are you on your manner. there's been a whole lot of criticism over the saudi princes visit as well as the catastrophe in yemen but first some background ten thousand people have been killed since the start of the conflict back in two thousand and fifteen and a saudi imposed blockade or has left the country at the brink of famine and the u.n. has deemed it the world's worst humanitarian crisis. look there what do you think.

the. even though the public has condemned u.s. involvement the u.s. has been supporting the campaign by arming the saudis amongst many other things last year trump signed a record arms deal worth about one hundred ten billion dollars one of the big one of the biggest in history and he reportedly hopes to continue making deals with saudi arabia but it's unclear how that all turned out in this political climate but some senators have voiced opposition to u.s. involvement and like i said before they put forth legislation in the senate that would completely put a stop to u.s. support and they've even grilled us cent com over the use of american weapons but

it seems that the pentagon didn't really have any answers. come track the purpose of the missions that it is refueling what targets it strikes and the results of the mission senator we do not ok and apparently russia will also be on the agenda when trump meets with the prince senior u.s. officials say president trump and mohamed bin solomon will look for ways to make russia pay a price for its aggressions. the kremlin has already responded expressing regret over the demonization of russia describing it as quote this maniacal desire to make russia pay something but due to all of these protests and the senate vote trumps meeting with the prince might not go as smoothly as flan

thanks for miss america the correspondence american on the line from washington now as we mentioned the future of the iranian nuclear deal is expected to be a key point of the discussion the meeting between the saudi prince and donald trump both are expected to take a hard line would discuss the chances of washington actually pulling out of the agreement with side mohammad marandi politics professor at the university of tehran . well it is possible that the united states will pull out of the deal we're not still sure because trump is so unpredictable i think it's quite obvious that the united states is discrediting itself the nuclear deal came after was it the result of the years of negotiations the united states by signing up to an agreement that the russians and the europeans and u.s. allies have been a part of the chinese as well by pulling out the americans are showing that they have no credibility whatsoever in the future no country in the world should take

the negotiations with the united states seriously because they may come to some sort of an agreement with the americans and then ultimately the americans there will be the man being new concessions and they may pull out of the such an agreement. it is exactly fifteen years since the start of the u.s. led operation iraqi freedom more commonly known as the iraq war what started out as a promise to liberate a country from dictators actually turned into years of conflict to cross the region is a reminder of how things unfolded. less than a teaspoon full of dry anthrax in an arm below shut down the united states senate arac declared eighty five hundred liters of anthrax cut i mean iraqis can hear me tonight in a translated radio broadcast and i have a message for them the tyrant will soon be gone. the day of your liberation is near

. tonight i am announcing that the american combat mission in iraq has ended. it will take time to eradicate a cancer like i said we will conduct a systematic campaign of airstrikes against these terrorists.

cut . what's concerning is people who pop up from those in that city people of mosul are the ones who get quite dark humanitarian assistance. one of the dark spaces in the war was the exposure of the top two of iraqi detainees at abu ghraib prison the jail was originally used by saddam hussein for political prisoners but after the u.s. invasion of two thousand and three it became a military prison for thousands of captured iraqis that many of the iraqis suffered

torture sexual abuse rape and humiliation riddick images of soldiers posing next to tormented prisoners shocked the world when they were released that led to the conviction of eleven american soldiers the story received a massive public outcry as well in the u.s. lotty spoken to former abu ghraib prisoners who describe for us their ordeal and i must warn you you may find these images coming up next disturbing. we'll know more when their americans arrived with their tanks we thought they would readers of the harsh regime everyone would have their own house and car just like in the wealthy arab countries or in the west but it turns out to be the opposite. of shyness they would hang a prisoner on the metal door of the cell and subject them to electrocution or urination they would stick a rifle into sensitive areas or they would use a broken broomstick causing internal bleeding prisoners would need surgery.

after i was released whenever i saw americans on the street i would be terrified they would send me back to that place and torture me again it still keeps me up at night remembering the torture they hear the screams of us young and yet i still have nightmares and suffer physical and mental pain as if it all happened yesterday i work night and day to try to forget it what we went through and what happened to iraq was a terrible crime it broke us even now i can't get inside a bafta because it makes me think of waterboarding. the time i spend in the prison felt like a lifetime an hour or that pain humiliation and unchastity is stays with you

forever. u.s. president donald trump has called putin to congratulate him on this election win on sunday l.t. is right gaz a day of has the details. the election's over putin won by a landslide the turnout was huge you'd think the press would be satisfied but no they worked themselves up into a frenzy over whether donald trump the president of america would call vladimir putin to congratulate him in fact earlier today russian press bugged putin's spokesperson about that and he sort of he shrugged and said they'll call of they won't don't read too much into it it wouldn't be an unfriendly thing to do not to call but it appears that trump did call and congratulated guided me a putin on his reelection they also discussed a number of issues apparently syria the situation in ukraine there's well is the

what the donald trump called the developing arms race between russia and the united states where a very good call and i suspect there will probably be a meeting in the not too distant future to discuss the arms race which is getting out of control but we will never allow anybody to have anything even close to what we have russia's military spending has been falling for years putin yesterday said that it will continue to fall and america's only been rising but don't trouble also said they may meet in the near future to discuss the various issues that have that have come up ukraine syria as well as this potential arms race. u.k. firm cambridge analytical has suspended its c.e.o. following a scandal about its alleged misuse of facebook data that says uses of the social media platform question facebook's credibility in light of revelations of

a personal data of this thing out he said he said he has the details on the tech giants data battle. deletes facebook is the hashtag that's been trending on twitter the social network uses off fuel reus facebook played a part in getting donald trump into the white house from fifteen million facebook users was harvested by a troubling analytic company and what appears to be the largest leak in the social networks history in two thousand and fifteen we learned that a psychology professor at the university of cambridge named dr alexander lying to us violated our platform policies by passing data from an app that was using facebook logon to s. you can which analytical firm that does political government and military work around the globe it all began with the cambridge university professor creating a personality up and passing the information acquired on to a third party cambridge analytic once facebook realized it violated their terms

they wanted all data to be destroyed there has the potential to be a lengthy legal battle and the fuel to the fire is the fact cambridge and the liska say they were conducting separate work for the trump's presidential campaign surely the double trump campaign was the first opportunist in data gathering think back to obama's reelection campaign in two thousand and twelve is media analytics direct to claims they manage to get a lot more personal information than their rivals if they speak he is clicks on the democratic side it enabled campaigners to access a wealth of information all thanks to the loopholes in facebook's privacy terms facebook twenty twelve election we got people to opt in the privacy policies of that time on facebook were that if they opted in they could tell us who all their friends were where this gets complicated is that freaks facebook out. so they shut off the feature so that is out there you can take it back to the democrats have this information and with this information gathered they would know which one of

your friends would influence you most in making a favorable voting decision davison also says facebook allowed the obama campaign. do you think they would have allowed others to do simply because they were on their size and whatever information passed to the campaigns of trump and obama they have one thing in common victory another common thread was the involvement of facebook status and both of victories whether in directly or directly and according to n.s.a. whistleblower edward snowden facebook is really a surveillance company in sheep's clothing businesses the make money by collecting and selling detail records of private lives but once plainly described as surveillance companies branding us social media is the most successful deception since the bombing of war became the barman of defense the information that came originally skill was given was a teen by fraudulent means but what's interesting about it is it didn't seem to be any checks and balances were always happen in this cambridge professor he got away

with this facebook seem to know he'd done done this did nothing about it so i think facebook is culpable but also is opening up a much broader debate about how much information facebook is gods and as edward snowden is being quoted out how much it's been allowed to access because we all noticed for the obama campaign to get access through you click you on up to all your friends and then this week carry on with further down the road became john edwards ago this is cool we all be are a legal and a moral quagmire and while you're reading articles on how to slate your data on facebook remember there's a simple facebook mean claimed to be posted by russia and thought to have caused chaos in the us elections perhaps trivial in the grand scheme of things as facebook looks into the nuts and bolts needed to prevent data leaking political campaign isn't their parties that are tighten their belts so. the government raid on the austrian secret service is headquarters and the suspension of it have

caused a political uproar in the country austria's new right wing government suspects the country's intelligence agency that's the b.v.t. of holding data illegally it's also accused the agency's chief of corruption he's now been suspended and moved into a minister described as unavoidable. b.c. of this as you know we have taken legal action against several officials from the b.v.t. intelligence agent something accused by the prosecutor in this case i can tell you that effective immediately peace agreed ling is suspended as b.v.t. director until further notice. whether the opposition claims that the probe is politically motivated the social democrats insist the government just wanted to seize compromising data on right wing extremists are now threatening an inquiry into the actions of the ruling party. it's one hundred days to cause doubts among the austrian people over the security forces your actions intimidated those officials who are supposed to foot the extreme right is the signal that wimbledon

the right is seen we put the opposition's concerns through johannes called near an m.p. for the main party in austria as ruling coalition. prosecution asked for this rate which was not actually rape but it was there was a pending criminal investigation against some members of the b.b. t. the b.b.c.'s a very sensible institution and police because it is the so-called bureau for to protect the constitution and to fight against terrorism that's what the abbreviations that stands for if the head of this group of this bureau is under investigation it's clear that the minister has no other choice but to suspend him for the time being because such. the role was such a sensible tuscumbia run by someone who is under criminal investigation himself. this search was done and as it was a sensible subject to search for

a unit which has absolutely nothing to do with crime against the state this was the g.s. that is the group for the fight against street crime and this group is headed by a man close to the freedom party which makes the saying now. easily to sell is a big thing it will only to help the prosecution in case they met resistance or the people did not cooperate so they actually didn't do the rate they were just asked by the investigators by the criminal investigators to assist. all information i got is absolutely untrue and unfounded so it was no raid to seize die have to do with extremist investigation all the data remained in place if they took copies of these daughters i am not aware of i don't know but the fact is that

no file was written removed and in no way investigation against certain persons was inhibits it or stopped or something like that so this is all the room or the maid around it to. construct a big story as you have seen today in a problem and even had a special session dedicated to this matter this is of course something the democratic party and the main opposition parties strives to exploit. now i'm sure that's a place you could be right now so we do appreciate you chiming in to see an r.t. internationalists even stick around if you can more coming your way in half an hour .

the far right in britain isn't just on the march it's taking violent. action i don't like it that. i see these organizations which are usually split into which we take different names how do you view that. complex web of richard basher. skies are this is the cause a report oh my gosh so much to commerce a little time oscar writing to max this guy remember him oh yeah i do know that's

jimmy mcmillan remember his party he were ran for governor in the great state of new york with the rent is too damn high party i remember clearly one of the character where they were from some famous clips of him on stage in debate andrew cuomo and he was like i read today i hear that hunger mother out here i can't do his voice but he was very funny anyway you know he's kind of considered old school now because he went the legit route you know he tried to campaign to get rent control and reduced prices on rent and rent stabilization and when the political route he campaigned in activism and that sort of thing to get politicians to help with the whole rent situation that we're seeing across many cities in america over the past decade certainly sense the financial collapse and here's the

headline is showing that there's a new wave of millennia old on the scene and they are not happy but they're not taking it to the stage like jimmy mcmillan they're taking it to the streets a new generation of anti gentrification radicals on the march in los angeles and around the country so this is yahoo finance and they go out into the streets of los angeles they talk to defend boyle heights and their sister group the boyle heights alliance against our our washington displacement but head boyle heights for those who don't know is in east los angeles is to. of downtown l.a. which use of course skid row very impoverished very dangerous when i lived in los angeles it was very scary down there but now it's hipster ville very expensive new apartments there it's. changed beyond all recognition but now these boyle

heights activists are seeing the signs of gentrification coming to their neighborhood and they are fighting back more in a malcolm x. kind of way if jimmy mcmillan is you know martin luther king jr these guys are malcolm x. and they are taking it to the streets they're basically forcing out art galleries and hipster coffee shops because they link those two to gentrification and increasing rent the shock troops of gentrification are hipster coffee shops and art galleries and once they appear this group unlike the minded are pushing them out and they're doing so in an aggressive way right they're like committing vandalism basically they're committing lawbreaking activity to push out in a in a hostile way in an aggressive way the gentrification as a way to stop this rolling tide of of high priced.

change cavuto so many people talk about that but what we're seeing in america in the past ten years especially is remember when we were children it was depopulation from the city center and people were afraid that danger and the violence of the move to the suburbs the white flight and then now it's the opposite is all the millennial children you know upper middle class mostly white families are moving into the cities driving up rents rents are very expensive for these families of the latino and mexican and black families are being driven out by the high rents but like i'll tell you how radical it is from what they themselves these defend boyle heights put on their blog when they were organizing a february seventh protest in mary actually square which is over there boyle heights east los angeles and they said gentrification is not. your next documentary

topic gentrification is not a trend for the wool wide web or for the detached subculture of the left to consume it is a vicious protracted attack on poor and working class people and we are again in class warfare that leaves our friends families and neighbors homeless devastated deported or dead so get with down friends and make crack so this is them inviting people out to their february seventh event and they were basically marching on an art gallery and demanding they go and so that the real estate agents wouldn't come in and basically runs you know saw the article and i read through the article so they're making the distinction between this particular campaign and previous ones where the been more genteel in those campaigns are they well placards they do marches and they try to get awareness and we don't want judges for geisha and this group and others are saying that that doesn't work we're getting more militarized you know getting more aggressive or getting more militant or getting more class

more like i mean the so they're they're engaging in vandalism and violence i mean that's the bottom line to push the money yet they're making it basically so that it's not basically they're making it very impolite they're very they're putting graffiti on these buildings so there was like an experimental opera group that was supposed to be marching through the streets of boyle heights and this was in order to attract hipsters and bring in gentrifiers but they they took their own trombones and other horn instruments and started by drowning them out so they follow them wherever they go there is this one woman who is opening an art gallery in boyle heights and she also has an art gallery in new york city and i think brooklyn in fact with all the hipsters live there and she herself lives in the upper east or west side of manhattan and they surround her they travel across the u.s. in a hash tag who'd solidarity tore. and they go to brooklyn and surround her art galleries

there and drown her out like they taunt her wherever she is so she stays out of boyle heights now because this boyle heights group has been so successful they their methods are spreading across the united states the other expensive cities as the article points out as a result like minded groups in other cities chicago austin new york have adopted the same hard line tactics their ranks are small and their methods are controversial even within the communities they purport to defend but their members are drawn from the most politically radical economically anxious generational cohort in recent memory young millennial is of color and their cause has the makings of a national movement a new more militant war on gentrification so where are these millennial as are as article points out graduating if they are able to go to university graduating with massive debts unlike the boomer generation before them or the generation x.

they have these get economy jobs precarious jobs their incomes are lower seventy five percent of those living in boyle heights at the moment rents so they can afford to own and now these. gentrification class is moving and able to buy these properties drive up rents drive these people out and put in their hipster coffees and i saw this belies two key american myth one is the melting pot and the second is the radio alger myth of of the bootstrapping of anyone can succeed in america who works hard so this is a whole group of people a whole generation in america is saying that there is no melting pot we're not being assimilated there's no opportunities and we can't move so their response especially is to go into conflict and this is a major conflict this is conflict across the country with a whole generation in a way that is becoming the response to this can can only be as forceful as this as

as the as the hostility that we're seeing on the street right. well j.f.k. jr said it. came south said it you know if you if you don't allow a way for these people to be heard then they turn to the streets basically violence and revolution becomes the only option for certain people so the article does point out that inequality in two thousand and sixteen the top one percent made eighty seven times more than the bottom fifty percent of workers from a twenty seven to one ratio in one nine hundred eighty the c.e.o.'s made two inches and seventy one times more on average than the typical employee a nine hundred thirty percent increase since one thousand nine hundred eight so the trend has been worse and worse for them and this is now after decades of polite conversation and attempts for polite activism and going on stage as jimmy mcmillan did in trying to debate andrew cuomo about the rent being too high and he was became a national like me comedy everybody's laughing about it but the concern is very

real for these people and regarding this woman for example with this gallery in boyle heights they talk to one of the women who she runs the boyle heights alliance again art washing and displacement bad art washing bess a new one well i guess it's our washing so when you see the gallery come in dear neighborhood. pirtle hi hi and art from on known artists it's a sign of the neighborhood isn't becoming transformed in a way that's on affordable you know the terms white washing or green washing well blue washing there also so white washing is basically providing like the u.k. does that all the time they have an inquiry an inquiry is official and it's lords and ladies who run these inquiries and they present a report that white washes the crime that happened by saying well some terrible things up and people feel really bad about it but so that's white washing our

washing is using artists. to wash the community to gentrify the community so artists are being used to get rid of all these latino and black faces from the communities is what they feel so we guarding that woman that i talked about the art gallery owner who has a place in brooklyn and she has this place in book boyle heights and they're shutting down these are galleries so finance is following these group of activists from boyle heights and one of the guys that they talk to he's asked why they're stopping why they're actually going after art galleries that seem so barbaric right well he said three five six mission they're really smart in the past they used to do black events people of color events empowering workshops and trans people so that identity i don't give a if someone is black or brown or disabled if they're gentrify or they deserve to die so.
