at least seventeen people have been killed and over a thousand than judus israeli soldiers use life bullets tear gas and drones against palestinians accused of violent riots the gaza border is the mother. of the baby is a ten year old and close to the fans also to come political football billboards spring up in european cities calling for a boycott of this summer's fifa world cup in russia we look at the group behind the campaign. not just your papers please the u.s. could now require visa applicants to hundred information about their social media activity.

so i welcome you watching r.t. international this saturday afternoon it's just gone three o'clock here in moscow now at least seventeen palestinians have been killed and over a thousand injured in clashes with israeli soldiers the gars of border that's according to the un's observer of palestine the u.n. secretary general is now calling for an independent investigation into the deaths well earlier the israeli army used live bullets tear gas and drones against gaza demonstrate. the. march of return is a demonstration to. sing the israeli occupation thousands of palestinians have

pitched tents across five locations where they are expected to stay for the next six weeks in response i.d.f. soldiers have stationed more than one hundred snipers overlooking the area journalists in daraa he has been following the clashes at the gaza border where only one hundred meters away from the front you see we can see the israeli army lightly as you can see the israeli army soldier is. trying to tie get to the protesters that are being very close to the front by live ammunition rubber bullets and the tear gas canisters that they are using. up they didn't have a lot what then i do you see this is that. by then it's really i mean they. are using that rather tear gas canisters on the protesters and this is like using get. the beginning of the day that live that just right now from that the

on gas canisters that went throughout out the protester just right now and as you see everyone is trying to take this if you really did that i'm willing to go to the hospital directly. i got to stay here for more than forty five days until the fifteenth of may because they believe that they have the return they have the right to return to their land they have the right to stay here and they won't go if they won't go home until they go back to their original to their homeland and to their towns reported in dari there will the west bank city of ramallah is also witnessing a violent standoff with i.d.f. soldiers shooting at palestinian state throw us president mahmoud abbas has declared saturday a national day of mourning we spoke exclusively to the senior political leader of the palestinian movement hamas and here's how he described the situation.

all those killed were from gaza what the israelis did is a crime against unarmed civilians who just want to return to their villages and towns and who have a right to under the nine hundred forty eight un resolutions these really are displaying the kind of fear seen in a thief who was trying to protect what he stole and this is how they treat unarmed civilians who just want to return home. while in response israel blames what it called phylum riots on her mast which she views as a terrorist organization the country's army said it would respond to any threat to israeli sovereignty and or say damage to the security fence. was. ahead of the mass protest the palestinian farmer was killed by an israeli tank shell his relatives say he was harvesting parsley one kilometer from the israeli border before dawn thousands marched on the streets of gaza as his body was being carried the israeli military said it was aware of the reports but claimed the tank

fire was directed toward suspects who approached the fence and were acting suspiciously. jamal juma his from the anti settlements movement and thinks that israel's heavy handed response to the demonstrations is disproportionate is a very strong message to the international community. and this gathering. march is a peaceful one there's a lot of military on the on the areas and they are shooting at the people who want . the violence that means that was what it was like if you look at the kid about the palestinians life they don't see the palestinians that and they are sure that the art of crime that they are doing and skipping with it because they are immune by this and coming from the system but the united states and the european countries that the silence there and the arab countries that do normalization with israel and do allies with theirs alone now. politics is becoming as

a more involved in sports with billboards now appearing in european cities calling for a boycott of this summer's pfieffer world cup in russia. takes a closer look now at the group behind the campaign the beautiful game takes an ugly turn to international friendlies this week in europe were hit with less than friendly billboards outside the stadiums the campaign also has an online petition against what it dubs the cup of shame and that site probably boasts that the u.k. has announced ministers won't be attending of course it fails to mention that britain's decision has nothing to do with the situation in syria whatsoever and it carefully ignores that moscow's presence has contributed when it comes to the fight against terrorism in syria including deescalation zones and humanitarian corridors but i digress i was an online global activism network is behind both the billboards and the petition and this is how they describe their aims of this is a global organization with a simple democratic mission closed the gap between the world we have in the world

most people everywhere want their campaigns cover everything from saving elephants and bees to much more controversial to control america and stopping the far right from taking power in europe so clearly they don't shy away from politics and when it comes to syria their position is crystal clear assad and by extension russia bad u.s. coalition and white helmets good and fact according to their site of oslo has raised over two million dollars to help the white helmets but as we've reported before the group isn't exactly what they might appear to be.

with some forty six million members worldwide and sixteen available languages on their website they make clicked of is an extremely easy whether causes animal rights global warming or the children in syria as an organization they're very deeply invested in. american establishment into corporate world and into the political ruling elite in america and so we've seen a. weapon are used as an instrument of war for example the petition was put forward for example against libya they were calling for a no fly zone we've also seen them for example supporting the alleged chemical weapon attacks to go to demonize the syrian government and to accused russia of supporting so what a petition that is calling for another fly zone or

a petition that is demonizing one particular side in a conflict it is that recently linked to that humanitarian aspect now of off takes pride in saying they're one hundred percent member funded meaning that their agenda is not and cannot be swayed by anyone with deep pockets or special interests but at the same time they also acknowledge that they were founded by two advocacy groups who received major funding from george soros a well known supporter of liberal political causes and through one of those companies sources open society foundation specifically funneled money to a vase so well p.r. stunts politicizing sports are nothing new with this stunt in particular some are now crying foul. now if you are planning to get a u.s. visa any time soon you might have to hand over more information than you bargained for like five years' worth from your social media accounts it is a proposal being put forward in the name of security as america up reports. well if

you're looking to apply for a u.s. visa you might need to clean up your social media posts or risk getting rejected these applicants could be asked to turn over their social media history as part of trump's new extreme betting policies now if it does pass applicants will be forced to disclose five years of their social media history and then the information will be used to apparently bet and identify them but the state department says this not might not be it they could even expand the list of required disclosures and if you think that's too intrusive the plan also requires e-mails and phone history well the proposal received a mixed reaction online from people saying it's an attack on privacy and others mocked it as of having to have a visa and passport to travel the world is bad enough how do you want to be done your social media t.v. well there goes freedom of speech as well as freedom of the u.s. government we want your social media names in order to get a visa me because freedom of speech is only something the almighty americans get.

is the least for tourism now the other countries with the same american tourists can tweet to brings out every single one of my six thousand seven hundred fifty four tweets one page and hand them to immigration the plan could potentially affect about fourteen point seven million people every year a similar policies in the past only apply to people that pose a serious security risk and these new plans are supposedly part of trump's larger counterterrorism policy now some even joked that if other countries had a similar laws in place trump's inflammatory twitting could have gotten himself banned from traveling abroad. come that will political activists christian mansehra says the state department's proposal should only have limited a pick ability is your own by truong may work in terms of going after people the american embassies and the local countries you know are you there are terrorists or you go. times to organized crime or to narcotics

trafficking this would probably serve a purpose but the embassies would have to have special personnel that would have to check these social media sites because this would take forever so i think this is something that must be considered because i don't believe they're going after social media or the private lives of citizens then in most part a very good people would serve the purpose of limiting the incoming immigrants that are coming to us now in terms of vetting and making sure that the right people come to know it states there are other measures that could be taken but not going after social media because this will definitely have a very very damaging effect not only on terrorism but also on social media outlets that promote freedom of speech and the ability of people to share their lives or their loved ones and friends first of all of the tax privacy in the tanks the freedom of speech. to take evans he said becoming increasingly important to relief efforts in pushing one hundred thousand people to stay with that power following

a major hurricane last year well today put a recount was set to receive twenty five thousand dollars worth of from bit calling on her nearness me to france santiago i spoke with some of them. puerto rico has received an influx of washington innovators who pledged to transform the region after hurricane rita's devastating damage but i'm hoping happens as a lot of people come to puerto rico and they take one of them around our. place a little these people are amazing and they're so nice and so there's so much culture is so beautiful here why is it that that things are so difficult why are why are there such struggles maybe i can make a difference maybe i can help with this those are three consecutive conferences detainee's last chance and coinage and we're all working together to build a community of the future give back to the people of puerto rico today we're going to install a five different solar solar set up surveying power it's a whole new. water change stems from

a ten year old incorporated company and is going to washington d.c. centralized water by creating a system of sensors automating water treatment and recycling process that shows puerto rico and teamed up the restart loop for its first systems implementation with a country that recycles the most water. you telling israel of course eighty percent recycling rate the next one down in the world just spain with twenty percent whereas the us. one percent. here's the worst part of it eighty percent of all water in the world is not treated it's just runs into the ocean so a trillion dollar water industry should be a five trillion dollar water industry and we anticipate that what happened with plants is that a part of that problem it's a part of the problem because the water infrastructure in the u.s. is literally falling apart it's whole and what's happening is forced

decentralization with the town's musicality by telling the users you clean your own water well i see that as an opportunity because we can get those users to adopt the very best technologies and reuse their will. now long before we build that we want to get to work right away here with but we're not going to wait to build all these structures we're just going to go ahead and use some of your the investment to literally put shovels in the ground and build the system right here right this more or less all my thoughts are on operate it take. no more arms remember that you're building community. for more building the future for the good wesley snipes max keiser promise of crystal rose and much only on the toll on our team. and you can watch that show at our website. still to come this hour a german n.g.i.

who's been accused of rampant anti semitism and is now conducting an internal investigation we'll have a look at that in detail in a couple minutes. say oh my client the famed off her who is writing extensively on environmental issues and social justice issues went to these conferences in puerto rico and her take away was that a bunch of people all showed up and this is a danger to the local economy and to the local fabric of society so the first thing that strikes me is that lefties like they owe me feel they have a monopoly on good intentions which i'm not sure where that comes from. one yard did not look for the perpetrators they were covering up their tracks

you know it was a month of all dearest dear dearest here the year they were free didn't russia with wind out who did it and think it was ukraine who did that. you can read what you want russia to clash with the rest of the world. welcome back to r.t. an independent autopsy has found us police fatally shot an unarmed black man in the back it happened in the city of sacramento earlier this month the victim's family lawyer says it does contradict the police officers claim that he was advancing towards them although what happened wasn't exactly clear from the body cam video that was released.

police fired it twenty two year old stefan clarke twenty times saying afterwards that they had mistaken his phone for a gun they were responding to a call about someone breaking windows clarke was shot in his grandmother's backyard the officers involved were placed on paid administrative leave the case has outraged locals though with protests happening almost every day since the day of the shooting in a series of protests demonstrators have blocked highways and twice disrupted a nearby n.b.a. basketball game the day after clarke's funeral black lives matter activists again block streets they call for justice and punishment for those responsible we spoke to former georgia state representative jones who says badly trained police officers are not being held to account. the ideas african-americans are automatically committing crime are in the foundation of our system fire training the right kind of training now this on how to shoot or when to shoot deescalating but then also

are training our inherent bias is that police officers may have in this country and it's within their system then we need to look at both in order to try to stop these types of horrific events but we have to look at the train of the. there has happened in the past where many officers are not being indicted or they are let off and that's because our law has a very huge loophole in deter allowing officers who have. their subjective belief of fear in determining whether they are guilty or not in their actions and the only other place to hold them accountable is it through the police departments making them lose their jobs but it's very hard to have the police police the police. the german and she has launched an internal probe aphoristic used to fostering a culture of anti semitism the allegation was made by israel's n.-g. o. monitor against the german society for international cooperation its employees have made controversial facebook posts including one that reads i hate israel another

post is a satirical drawing but we spoke about the case with a representative from monitor what is really shocking about the host were put online at least eleven employees of gio's that german federal agency did implement projects on behalf of the german government is basically the fact that you have employees german employees representing the government spreading violent anti-semitic and it's not even anti israel this is israel he truant posts really do years without being sanctioned and this is all the while under very high level of german government the message has been very clear we identify that there is a rise in anti-semitism and we will fight it and israel is incremental kind of foreign policy its existence its safety and relationships with israel however the german

society for international cooperation does tonight it is and he semitic although it is worth noting the organization employs almost one hundred fifty people in the palestinian territories israeli writer though gideon levy says we do have to distinguish between. comments that are anti semitic and anti israel it's going to get this notion that in the critical. immediately perceived that israel is anti semitism and that's a very efficient way to release ourselves from any. who to look to be accountable for anything in the media in the world. very very carefully criticizing israel because they are so scared to be labeled the semites one should know there is a disability in the world but not to be critical for disability and as a medal for most of the critics of islam are not anti semites because there is

a lot to criticize about israel let's be honest. now the city of los angeles is associated with celebrities luxury and fame although it does have another side official figures to suggest that homelessness has increased forty three percent between twenty thirteen and twenty seventeen the los angeles city council is now considering a plan to provide housing for every homeless person in the city redfish media takes a closer look now at life on skid row. this is los angeles home to the glitz and glamour of hollywood the city perhaps most anonymous with the american dream. but this is also well a. bit more but here night every doorway there's a moment even acknowledged in the street many of them live in skid row in downtown

l.a. which has long been considered the center of homelessness in the city you. probably . have never seen. it seeing people with their own. mental and decent he is on a leave of. filming on skid row was no easy task while some were eager to share their stories others understandably didn't want to be filmed. you know star. can do. to protect our dead. so what is hollywood doing the authorities have taken a heavy handed approach to l.a.p.d. and law enforcement are regularly called on to clear the homeless from the streets while arrests in the city declined fifteen percent between two thousand and eleven and two thousand and sixteen arrests of homeless people by the l.a.p.d. were up thirty one percent. moer arrived in los angeles
