control sue if there were chlorine gas that would protect them from from some small leaking of the korean gas for a while and it doesn't make any any any sense i could see it going through a roof and never even breaking it's a silly way and even if it did great the dispersal of the chlorine might only kill the people in the room or what not even people outside the room had time to get out now and international chemical watchdog is carrying out an investigation in doing a moment do we know what stage they're at well yes the o.p.c. w. is in damascus right now the fact finding mission has not been able to get to and to do more because it is simply not safe enough for those those u.n. experts who have been in dumas whom they managed to actually once and to do most sort of to do some reconnaissance as to how safe they are. how safe it is there they got under small arms fire together with the russian military police so.

investigators they get into the town but i mean this whole thing is somewhat has been somewhat rendered irrelevant because the retaliation for the alleged attack even before we have actually managed to establish the that the attack happened in the first place has already been carried out the u.s. the u.k. and france on april the fourteenth the more than one hundred missiles at syria so really now the question is whether or not whether or not what the results of the best gauge will be. a lot easier to shrug off thank you. a joint strike on syria led by the u.s. not long after president had been promising to pull american troops out of the country however there are now reports of a new force being assembled in case of a u.s. withdrawal an explanation now with but i guess the. to leave or to stay

it's a tough. i want to get out i want to bring our troops back home i want to start rebuilding our nation we are in syria fight isis and that is our mission and the mission isn't over and we're going to complete that mission america says it wants out of syria but not before its goals are accomplished which could take a while and get real dirty what do you do well that's what friends are for we have asked our partners to take greater responsibility for securing their home region saudi arabia it seems has volunteered for the difficult task of sending troops to sit on oil fields in eastern syria apparently saudi arabia has been volunteering pretty hard and pretty long we're in discussions with the us and have been since the beginning of the syrian crisis about sending forces into syria now here's the thing those arab troops would have to be trained the

u.s. could do it but no not after what happened last time all the last times the iraqi forces just showed no will to fight. they were not outnumbered by in fact they vastly outnumbered the opposing force and yet they failed to fight they withdrew from the site we have an issue with the will of the iraqis to fight i saw and defend themselves so if the pentagon doesn't want to get involved there's conveniently eighth option erik prince mercenaries and soldier of fortune extraordinaire the founder of blackwater yes v. blackwater the infamous private military company who is operations in iraq resulted in it being banned from the country only to really. and

a new name but i never heard that. they were dead bodies everywhere in the city now you've been talking about even with t.v. from inside among the dead bodies lying on the street that's it which causes the middle of next seven years old.

prince was out of sight for a while before resurfacing on the trump whom he donated a quarter of a million dollars to prince says officials in the middle east have already contacted him about assembling a force for syria and with john bolton as the new national security adviser one of the most radically militant talks in washington no one's going to care about princes shady past john bolton is here and we just had a big. it's a win win if you are unwilling to occupy a hostile desert in a country that doesn't want you there well privatized it give your buddies a chance to make a quick buck after all isn't that what friends are for we discussed this issue with brian baca from the and he wore a coalition. american government is telling the american people look we're going to

go to war in syria it's imperative that we do so it's imperative that we occupy or our proxies under our guidance occupy these other countries but don't worry americans won't do any believing the suffering the bleeding will be done by others the real function of us troops in northern and eastern syria or if they are replaced by a nato arabs of military force the saudis so to speak organized by erik prince they will be nothing other than a trip wire allowing the us the bomb either through bombs or missiles against any force including the sovereign syrian arab army that seemed to interfere with the american zone of influence in the northern and eastern part of syria so from war to the weapons trade to the trumpet ministrations decided to drop some restrictions on sales making more military drones available to its allies but there are concerns the policy puts money above human rights ice americano. the trump administration

says that these new reforms are intended to strengthen the american economy now the policy will cut back the time it takes to approve arms deals as well as ease limits on drone exports to name a few but it's not the only reason why trump is trying to make it easier for other countries to buy american weapons to reduce their reliance on weapons from china and russia but if we look at trump's time in office so far this really isn't anything new he kicked off his presidency a signing an arms deal with a saudi arabia so it's certainly possible that the saudis could possess even more american weapons which human rights organizations say or be used to carry out their military operation in yemen which has been described as the world's worst humanitarian crisis by the u.n. over the past few years a many american politicians have recognized the saudi threat and they've been pushing to and all assistance to saudi arabia it is u.s.

made in transfer ordnance that is carried on these planes and are dropped. on civilian infrastructure targets inside yemen but why don't we check out how u.s. officials explain the reforms partners to procure american weaponry and more capable of fighting alongside us and ultimately more capable of protecting themselves with fewer american boots on the ground this is a balanced policy with absolutely look at human rights as one of a set of considerations that palooka so the question is if this new policy does indeed boost the economy will americans be ok with it even if it leads to further destabilization in the middle east activist and author david swanson has concerns about unregulated sales of arms around the world the united states for a while now has been number one in providing weapons to the world to dictatorships most of the places on earth that we think of as violent where we see wars underway

don't manufacture any weapons at all so this is a handful of big wealthy countries dealing weaponry to the rest of the world and thinking of it as economics as a way to make a buck oh well the effects are inclusive of the worst humanitarian disasters in recent history. little has a checkered past quite literally because he is taking the chess world by storm and hopes to be the next generation of grand master and a school that world championship tournament which kicks off today in albania might well be his next big chance. or i just saw on the feel. like. i

was pleasantly surprised by me shot for a six year old his chest most are very compact the place like an adult like a mature chess player seems to suggest. it's a little. it's. own little social. stuck on. a guy. so it's a. child but for. once i. love more there. was. their. whole problem his father came to me with his daughter they once told someone chess

i started working with her and then one day he younger brother came along and his father left him with me for a while and mr reach for the chess pieces asked if he knew how to play and he said he knew where to put the pieces i asked if he knew how to move them and showed him he learned quickly so i told his current stuff like to teach him to and he soon never took his sister and his father. have been going to competitions with him since he was far and he's like a son to me of course i care about every student and i want some for ten get results. goodness me if we get them into the top three and bring back a medal. here's all the international thanks for joining us so far about haul freight for the program and lots more still to come just about.

anyone else seems wrong. just don't hold. me. to shape out. comes out to. and in again from it because the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. living with a lot of conflict. when reading the situation in syria to the rest of the middle to the problem between saudi arabia and iran now the american president is that i and you know to withdrew under some arabs to go there we heard that the saudis are

really to grow. on the ground so we can be able to feel the reason the situation is very very dangerous. if you join us today it's been revealed that facebook's making changes to move the bulk of its users out of the e use legal reach just weeks before the block plans to enforce strict new privacy rules nearly one point five billion accounts will be switched from the platforms international headquarters in ireland to its main offices in california that means they will come under u.s. regulations the move affects some seventy percent of all facebook users from regions like africa asia and latin america. now the transition will be completed before the new e.u. data protection law takes effect on may twenty fifth it imposes requirements on how

users data was collected and how it's handled the fines can reach up to four percent of the company's global revenue which for facebook could mean more than a billion dollars social media giant though has downplay the importance of the user data switch. with being clear that we are offering everyone who uses facebook the same previously protections controls and settings no matter where they live these updates do not change that we discussed facebook's privacy policy with the co-founder of iceland's pirate party but again john's daughter she thing as usual is a still not informed enough about who is really handling that data. when mark suckle book says that you know the users can control what they're doing is completely a lie because people don't know about it as we have user agreements that are you know figure than the bible when you have companies that are forced and there are so

pick up they're also forced to give government data and they also sell the data or actually know they don't so that they do the sell you your the product you are not aware of how these things work and they're so big that they are not even in control over that it themselves then you have big problems nobody knows what so how these algorithms work who feeds them what is being put into them and i think that we need to actually instead of focusing on this current narrative off you know new cold war we should be focusing on how do we learn to be in this space because we are going to be in this space and how we're going to be protected and i think we need to start to break these huge corporate sectors apart because they play such a crucial role in our democracies and when you have people that knocks.
