france u.k. and the united states eager to use force if necessary but i'm willing to sit down and do the tedious work of organizing talks why is that job left to iran and turkey and russia to that are the western allies not willing to break a sweat or to do some actual negotiation. some time and i find that very the cholas in the us position because they keep insisting i heard from you and you know the message was very clear that the use of chemical will top and there are more people . getting killed in syria. every week in iraq than those who are a lot of friends and it's not all they do use of chemicals you know what i'm talking about about is about all kinds of things that were used in syria and also busy and using your money and thought in a situation is better but it's not that simple that you know ok well going to strike down not going to use if there was again the chemical want to go into the

woods it's very simplistic and i was in in my personal view all right we're going to take a short break right now when we're back we'll continue talking to the money former deputy u.n. envoy to syria discussing the controversy around there were sent u.s. strikes on syria stay with us. the way the system should work is that every stock bond security underwritten by wall street or any bank in america one person should be carved out and put into salsa security so that americans whether they have

a job as minimum wage workers or whether they're c.e.o.'s all across the spectrum everyone gets to participate in this thing called the american economy because if you don't all the stocks are not part of the american economy. to march to the wheel to be a person and then to plant the seeds you know they're the books they are the europeans so the dog is. in this room until the players are passed by the stuff i've been. building for the orders that are all. i want to start a jumping to salvation i still miss

a little he told me i mean you sound so females of ballet she cheered on faultless is she going to. play matchmaker that game a lot of the kind of there is much to be answered. and we're back was most thought a lot of money former deputy un envoy to syria talking about the situation in ravaged country the money he had conducted an investigation into the use of chemical weapon. in syria before in khan. assad that was in two thousand and thirteen i believe and you saw evidence pointing to the fact that he. was in possession of chemical weapons why is the fact that the syrian rebels have chemical

weapons ignore it and why is everyone always talking about damascus no i didn't conduct any mission i was in the mask and i was assuming the group you know to conduct a huge one happened in august. two thousand and thirteen but we were keeping since the beginning of my mission in two thousand and twelve used to move it off and evidence of the two different areas of. some contact the length of contact with all i does with all groups out of the groups we went with everybody who was involved the. also to get information when it's happened but you know the power of the spot sometimes a lot of conflicting information and the. response of course was how to get it you know because when people in a lot of the drews ever think again that although there are you know even allies

even a lot of things so this is why we said you know i said i suppose anyone involved in syria in the world of say that it was the chemical and everything that was sort of in the. money yes but that was exactly my question do you feel like all sides could have access to chemical weapons and not just damascus yes right so why don't leave them there and if you know what way what i know you can ask is being when you are in the service is involved. well see this one time that kind of came because i'm not an expert of chemicals that can be only in the hands of the government but also consider this is involved in syria so they're not trying to give to anyone these kinds of chemicals they opens the w. is starting the fact finding mission in duma to establish if they cameco attack did take place so a gentleman where the u.s. coalition strikes undertaken before facts were on the table. i don't know you

know if you go to do all the missions first of all would be different it's a preferred not to dismiss if it was backed by a security council resolution to give a political will to that mission which is not the case in the other case and we know in different experiences of the just that i remember what happened during. the missions in iraq of inspectors in iraq you know all going in the fight to put within this mission a lot of the asians and when a member the question of david you know does in there i mean i can. finishing the mission me the book on the record and i thought here was that in the name of the. so and sometimes even though it's with one of the last missions in syria when this does the use of chemical four times two times by isis and two times the way the government of course it was rejected by the government of syria as well as by the

russian the syrian government didn't do it but it's very hard to know did it does america and its allies actions actually defeat the purpose of the o.p.c. w mission i mean they're basically sending the message to the whole world that the mission doesn't make sense what they assume they know is result i mean what is it do they assume that they know the results beforehand there's a huge lack of mistrust between the parties everybody was talking about the mission is going to be in do much when a problem happened everybody is there you go. it is not because of those we heard only that. the russian and the sitting government didn't allow the mission to go from the other side you know they're telling you no it's some people who live you know to file their mission there's a security problem. sometime what is it reported and deposes an expert express officer there and openly so far from that oddities on their get out what happens if violence flares up again in duma are we going to see the o.p.c. w.

mission leave and then we'll never find out the details of the matter right well i said i'm not expect of chemical but the westerners who are telling you know that are making a lot of problems to do this mission so to have enough time everything good all the evidence which does appear with time i'm not sure of all this technicalities but what i'm sure is the lack of. the huge level of mistrust between the parties so last year we had a similar situation the americans announced that they are not insisting on assad must go and damascus was having success on the front lines and then the alleged chemical attack made america strike this time around trump announces the imminent withdrawal of american troops and the deal to end hostilities in good time in the works and then all of a sudden a chemical attack happens and missile strikes follow it damascus in date is behind

the chemical attack tell me why what it should itself in the food twice in a row. you know from one side we know that's joining to negotiation with the different groups inside some of them except the. refuse especially those that's well in some parties of the. islamic army particularly. so to me. leave immediately or wrote to me or whatever i can not to point oh did it. with really some chemical attacks but again and again it shows. the high level of mistrust and everything is used to inform all parties iraq's war ministry says the airstrikes can give terrorism another opportunity to expand to sing but that's concerns are justified.

or you know what one of their government spends they be doing that the vehicle sponsors the situation the turks should take out of. especially. that's rather slow only then and there is a reason to continue about this. until it was not the result that is still there and the other part with the with all the other groups and that's that is the measure things can make the war continue because they know them so they're not involved in the political process and they will do everything to continue and i know on their going to even when i was that in a lot of groups and groups of people inside the group to keep changing from a group to another group because no see them expect the door to be to go down too long and to be that complex and for me this to feed so it's becoming in a. better. situation so there are demonstrations of support

for after this strikes you know they're right i mean it seems that strikes a limited nature only made the syrian president more popular. he's seen now as resisting by modern aggression and a lot of. this is that that's the way his portraying himself at least he's seen now is resisting western aggression do you feel like maybe this strikes indeed backfire in terms of their political impact on the syrian war. well i'm not sure it is going to make a better popular does it by god which is a television you know and don't mean especially. when i take into consideration the other part of it that the account of it is destroyed the fifteen million the left at home of course everybody. agrees the government because when they compare to the situation before that of spitting and before. two thousand and eleven of course the situation was much better for everybody but i'm

not sure that you know it's going to be dissolved and getting some popularity on a solution it's not easy it's much more complicated and it's going to take much more time syria will remain one county the rebel on clive's around damascus are all but taken by the government do you think that damascus will keep going and attempt to take the remaining opposition areas in a country by force one by one. you know what just kidding and just because one that was taking was by asking you the population to move and this is why i mentioned in the beginning you know the six right in the undecided in dimension which is moving the population if it is true that the who is part of loving british and because we know from those of the militia that's supportive to the government has by law or the news about from the afghan or all of them and do measure ninety nine percent of

the rebels are soon and if you ask the people to move that's where or this i'm not sure city i would remain one count that it is going to have to stop or drought hoping that this is going to continue and now there's a possibility of some other interventions and. some i don't think you know what i said from the beginning but it's becoming a war by proxy like you say syria is now defacto divided into several parts but seeing how secure our intentions are running so high during this war is a federal or a partition syria the only way out. no no i hope it's not going to happen i hope i hope the people of the city and. so on the four people you know there will remain in one county and all of them together and to be an example of positive changes in the whole area which is strongly and needed in that part of the woods unfortunately

because of all of them you know government as well as the opposition as well as it looks to me huge mistake because in the state of humanizing the county from inside by finding a solution open it to all involved in an intervention that's it's getting very red about to get it from such a situation but. the city of a politician the designers of politician is still dead look what's happening now between detroit's undergirds which is for the turks it's was about i think it's. the curse of the but i wanted to you know the you know to fight what is going to drop in that i mean they can look in still so many bases in that part of the if the so they are going to come all the counties from the gulf not to even over there through with it all the kind before all the partition and the only one always been a very very hyper prize is the women of syria the kids of syria and the people of syria and strong i thank you very much for this interview who are talking to. a

former deputy going on right to syria discussing whether peace is going to come to the war torn country any time soon that's it for at this edition of said think oh i'll see you next. four men are sitting in a car when the fifth gets shot in the head. all four different versions of what happened one of them is on the death row

there's no way he could have done it there's no possible way because the list did not share around a corner. it was president donald trump says he wants american troops to leave syria what are exactly washington's goals in syria partition war for war sake or a means to sticking it to iran and russia all or poorly thought out options. apply to many flips over the years so i know the game inside dives. football 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 superman each billionaire owners and spending two hundred twenty million one player. it's an experience like nothing else not to because i want to show what i think what i know about the beautiful guy was great

so what chance with. the base is going to. we all willingly accepted the risk of being shot wounded taken prisoner but noone with us signed up to be friggin poisoned by our own people assume that was nuclear biological and chemical products the said do not round the truck tires all types of styrofoam polystyrene batteries trucks there was a complete denial i think at all levels of government that there was any connection between berm pits and what these brave soldiers were suffering from to compensate every soldier marine airman and sailor there was on the ground that are complaining about illnesses from their exposure from the berm pids would really literally send a v.a. broke and they don't want to pay it so the waiting in decades

a lot of those soldiers will die in time and they will have to pay and. called relevant to the middle finger to be used to model is. delayed and i hope you die.

thank. you.

tear gas is the ploy been clashes on the gaza israel border amid massive protests including by the families of the imprisoned palestinians. local journalists working for aussies also caught up in it she's told us she is now ok. as more doubts are raised over videos purporting to show the aftermath of one alleged chemical attack in syria and crew visits places seen in the footage and speak to eyewitnesses. in the us democratic party seeks billions of dollars in damages from almost every figure in the from russia probe

a letter confusion conspiracy to disrupt twenty six the presidential campaign. and i welcome to live from moscow. thanks for joining us this hour. our top story tonight tear gas has been deployed along the gaza border with israel trying to disperse protesters israeli officials confirm that around three thousand palestinians are involved in the demonstrations made an anti israel march by families of imprisoned palestinians there are reports at least two demonstrators have been killed a local journalist who was at the scene of clashes was also affected by the tear gas. oh my god it's crazy everyone is running from the tear gas canisters they're randomly shooting to death something everyone. i can't wait.

for you know who was really good to try to do what you did we were covering the protest and coming closer to the protesters and suddenly they in they intensively started to fire tear gas and we were trapped by at least five tear gas canisters we started to feel our nose and eyes burning we couldn't even take take a breath and at that time i literally fainted i didn't know what's happened what was going on so i'm two hundred meters away from the fence that separates between gaza strip and israel we can see the israeli snipers stationed along the borders there are heavy weapons they have been firing tear gas canisters live ammunition on the protesters and demonstrators and it's very dangerous here but you can see at least three thousand palestinian demonstrators prisoners families and a lot of palestinians are marching towards the fence so as you see all the

ambulances are in state of emergency where they are ready to take on the injuries from the near the front and as you see the palestinian protesters are very very very close to define some only demanding the right to return but are also demanding to break the siege on the gaza strip that has been imposed by israel for more than eleven years did got is filling the place and is surrounding i actually won from all the sides if there is surprise i left up and down here totally surrounded by tear gas canisters i can hear children crying from the tear gas i can see those children and trying to run away. kids families and everyone the palestinian protesters are again trying to close at the. sense that there is really i mean i did just by little signs that they i did last week and that you see they're trying to target these palestinian protesters by the young guys tear gas canisters

palestinians are not only demanding the right of return but they're also demanding that they're demanding the release of the seven thousand palestinian prisoners and their israeli jails and as you see the palestinian protesters are holding the pictures of these palestinian prisoners in the israeli jail. and israeli defense force spokesperson tweeted that the protests are organized by hamas a political and military group they regard as a terrorist organization israel also reportedly dropped smoke bombs to keep demonstrators away from the border fence and use the leaflets telling palestinians to stay away israel i'd say military response is justified as the rallies continue we discuss the issue with former i.d.f. captain yoni ben mina sherman who believes israel provided adequate warning. of course it is justify these no army in the world that will allow thousands of protesters to come to the fence the border fence and try to cross it this is why the idea of war protesters not to get close to the fence

demonstrate a few hundred meters away from the fans they don't have to come closer they are. pushed towards the fence by the leader of hamas in order to create headlines in order to create. so that they can blame israel so even the claim they didn't i don't think that we have it in the clinic see it i think the climax will be towards the may fifteenth they're not but they. video footage broadcast around the world claiming to show the aftermath of an alleged chemical attack in syria is now being called into question the team from our sister channel r.t. arabic has visited the city my colleague research a discussed what they saw there with. goes down of what we've seen so far from this place was and much mostly it's been a video released by the white helmets activist group you're looking at right now

it's shot in a hospital and it's shows some truly heartbreaking pictures the scenes of chaos of panic confused children being hosed down with water everything pointing at a potential chemical attack but our are to rob a crew managed to talk to a boy who was featured in this video of the white house and he gave his account of events in that hospital have a listen to that he had act outside and they told all of us to go into the hospital i was immediately taken up stairs and they started pouring hooter on me do you remember where it happened last. week here with a hose or is it. here it is thank you thank god i don't watch water on me you put me here and then took me officers to my mother where exactly opposite is the second floor i was oxter so over there that alley.

saturday so the doctor started filming us here they were pouring water and taking videos and then my father came and found me someone had told him we were here so he came and took me away i luckily i didn't know she was being seen and i went up stairs and saw my wife and children i was very surprised and asked what had happened when my son's eyes were red and i found out that it was about it was cold and he could have got sick and he was undressed when i took my son the first told me that they still needed him but i still to come away from that. the boy is clearly in shock still to have to go through something like this or to go through such terror at his age is unthinkable really we've reached out to the white house questing in statement of some reaction to what's being what's being filmed in duma right now but we're still to hear back from them even as i understand there was other footage from the alleged senior of the attack was and yes indeed there was

another video released by another activist and it is apparently from an apartment building where the actual chemical project tile the alleged chemical projectile landed this is the initial video that we're showing you right now and this is the project we our crew again managed to get inside this very building so to the left you can see our video and to the right is the original one and initially how the media reacted to the first the released video well they saw it as rock solid evidence of a chemical attack the chemical weapon that killed dozens of civilians and astaire's that the asshead regime has previously used in chemical attacks the assad regime has used this same yellow gas canisters the n.s.t. telling fox news they have a high degree of confidence that it was yours apparently the project was still toxic was still fuming with the something toxic and that's why they had to wear a mask to protect themselves but we've spoken to

a number of it and they've told us that only a gas mask is basically not enough. protect oneself from a toxic substance if that were a nerve agent whether he's got his base covered or not it's going to go right through his skin and the only protection that he could have is if this whole body were in a chemical controlled suit if there were chlorine gas that would protect him from from some small leaking of the chlorine 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 its silly way and even if it did great the dispersal of the chlorine might only kill the people in the room but not even people outside the room had time to get out now and international chemical watchdog is carrying out an investigation into my to we know what level of what stage they're at now in the investigation while the o.p.c. w. inspectors the fact finding mission they are in damascus but they so far have not been able to and to do much it's not safe un security mission they went to the city

of do much with the syrian army and they came under small arms fire so far it's not safe enough but this whole endeavor as some would be rendered only three relevant i should say because the retaliation for the chemical for the chemical attack that's there's no confidence yet in the fact that even happened in the first place but the retaliation is already there the u.s. the u.k. and france launched more than a hundred missiles to strike targets they believe the assad government are using to produce chemicals right now the big intrigue is what the official investigation is to show whether or not the attack happened at the u.n. special envoy for syria has spoken about saturday's bombing of the country by the u.s. and its allies saying that strikes won't help resolve the crisis the comments came as stuff under mr met the russian foreign minister a lot of what this happened last week and it's not carol.
