a doctor from take calls sway the senator. from right around the world this hour welcome to our two international my names you know neil good to have you with us on the alleged sunday led coalition air strike on a wedding party in yemen has killed at least twenty people dozens more were injured it's feared the casualty figures are even higher with some reports that as many as fifty people were killed a warning the following video as the strobing imagery a small child can be seen clinging to a property there that's reportedly a close family member of the body is then removed many other people who lost their lives during what was supposed to be a celebration carry. i

want to know this is my nephew who was injured last night by the airstrike he's two brothers who were killed. but we have contacted a number of humanitarian organizations on the issue human rights watch said the coalition continues to target civilians and refuses to adequately investigate or compensate the victims ochs from condemned the attack calling for an investigation to be carried out the saudi that coalition commented as well on the situation with its spokesman saying riyadh takes the report very seriously and will be looking

into the matter well the coalition intervened in yemen almost three years ago to fight the rebels saudi arabia considers them terrorists who oppose the yemeni government which it backs the conflict brought the country to all the un the scribes as the worst humanitarian crisis in modern history a yemeni journalist told us that saudi planes targeted a none military area and not for the first time. i visited a place in santa band where they were a wedding talk place there this. is very far away from any military positions. i met with the people there talk to me they told me that they have heard the word please holding over the wedding. different times. suddenly they have the hair he didn't expect that the saudi arabians fighter jets would target a wedding that time it's not the first of its kind to take place since the beginning of the saudi led coalition war in yemen in order to drive out the

disquiet the rebels from the areas they have already to taken control. of the twenty four. the situation continues to fall the deteriorate. the british government has branded a number of online activists russian stooges who are doing the kremlin's bidding to online personalities in particular have been singled out over allegations that they're not even real people but rather automated accounts run by moscow also known as russian bots according to u.k. government analysis their accounts of brew and popularity after skeptical posts on the salt spray poison attack and for their views on the chemical attack in syria recently being falsified one of the suppose it bought spoke out of british t.v. . you have consistently and prolifically taken an anti british

standpoint the question is what does it mean by. all. this is me trying to trace a million. people or does it mean that. you are doing. it in is a political activists who often challenges western views on twitter he is ations that he's a russian boxer a total fabrication and here's the other account that caught the eye of british authorities it belongs to a well known history and blogger of syrian the cent when the u.k. government accused her of being a russian bot so for her posts on the script poisoning she made the point of proving she's in fact a human being there and spoke to my colleague colin bray earlier but you look real to me you're sure you're not a russian bot. last time i checked it's only real human being. you know

the british government they can't even confirm that i'm not an automaton how can we believe anything they have to see about the evidence they have who are scruple and syria's chemical attacks the u.k. government argues that one reason to doubt you is being a real activists is that the number of posts that you wrote or repos did more than two thousand tweets in just twelve days and that's around two hundred posts a day where did you find the time to do all that how can you explain that large number. well there i can explain it because the number is in fact full so i took my analytics and i've only posted nine hundred tweets in thirty days that number comes from the atlantic council's d of our love it wasn't just me and it wasn't just ian who you just heard recorded from sky news it was actually a coordinated attack against a bunch of academics activists including vanessa dealey tim is a professor as well anyone who is basically coming up against the mainstream media

lies and the u.k. government lies the lies that they are using to start wars overseas so it's clearly a smear campaign to try to intimidate people into silence and to try to smear anti-war activists a somewhat of a biased voice you know related to russia and expect things to get worse and i know seen the censorship i mean i have been shut down my facebook account has been shut down they've tried to shut down my youtube account so i'm not sure how long i'll going to be staying online but i'm going to continue as long as i can. be having stateside where president trumps pick for secretary of state has been given the green light finally cia director mike pompei oh is no one step closer to becoming america's top diplomat or for his candidacy sparked a heated argument in the senate unfortunately i do not believe director pumper or someone who will always prioritize diplomacy over conflict i can't imagine having

someone more qualified. be secretary of state it's critically important that the secretary of state be an independent voice in the white house i'm concerned about that he will be speaking for the president when he travels he is the appropriate person for that i think is not the right person for this position what nominee would you vote yes for i don't want to vote for people who are anti diplomatic to be the nation's chief diplomat the senate committee chose to bike market pump a nomination after a narrow vote following a last minute reversal by republican senator ron paul though he had been a staunch critic of the odd going cia head over his hawkish stones if not for polls eleventh hour switch like pump a zero could have been on track for a historic this think sion the first secretary of state nominee not to pass the committee stage with more not here. mike palmdale washington's top diplomat well

that's as soon as he is confirmed by the u.s. senate but after the foreign relations committee confirmed his nomination he is one step closer to having the state department who according to the floor in a positive manner want to thank you remember this committee for the diligence they've displayed i think we've done the right thing now it was tense up until the very end but one republican senator kept up the suspense rand paul would have paved the way for what would have been a historic now by the committee but a phone call from donald trump seems to feel good deal i want to say this about rand paul he's never let me do real ball is a very special guy as far as i'm concerned he's never let me just. i don't think you left out here now it took some persuading since rand paul is known for his staunch anti interventionist policies what's going to please with trump's choice someone who advocates for us staying forever in afghanistan another iraq war

bombing syria without permission so these are the advice you will get out of and i guess that's my biggest concern with your nomination is that i don't think it reflects the millions of people who voted for president drum who actually voted for him because they thought he'd be different that it wouldn't be the traditional bipartisan consensus to bomb everywhere and be everywhere around the world and he wasn't the only one with reservations at that april twelfth hearing where we assembled in a war cabinet of john bolton and mike pump that are going to result in devastating consequences bypassing congress is authority in regards to the use of military force and perhaps engaging in another poorly thought through mistake like our war on iraq but if you judge john pale soley on his answers at that hearing we might think of a bit tame. it's time to call out wiki leaks for what it really is a non-state hostile intelligence service often abetted by state actors like russia . i can't think of a thing that has put america in a better position as

a result of this deal. a very real danger. i hardly ever escape a day at the white house without the president asking me about north korea and how it is that the united states is responding to that threat it's very much at the top of his mind they are ever closer to having the capacity to hold america risk with a nuclear weapon now the harvard educated veteran is a firm believer that the u.s. is truly if we embrace the regime change in other nations we can hardly say but this is something that only the u.s. gets it do that i must say i don't i don't find the i don't find the moral equivalency there that this is a this is a unique exceptional country russia is unique but not exceptional and with that attitude you into the job at the overall level it is that very bad sign that trump keeps surrounding himself with with right wing inner hawks on foreign

policy and now we have. a secretary of state who is not known for being a diplomat is no one to be a hawk on foreign policy and he doesn't come from a diplomatic background he comes you know for a with more militaristic background he his policies and statements said that he said advocated have been very hawkish so this is you know this is very ominous actually. ten people have been killed and fifteen injured when a volley plowed into pedestrians in the canadian city of toronto the reasons behind the incident are still being investigated.

there was a man lying in the road hit by a car his shoes were one hundred feet away up the road. he started going down the sidewalk and knocking people down one by one. have passed multiple dead bodies carried out she was endeavoring. he just destroyed so many people's lives every single thing that got in his way. or people who witnessed the incidents at monday lunch time up the scribe the say. the man was walking through the intersection and young encounter it was just one of the middle of the intersection and the van just went right into one plowed right into him and then apparently he drove down further and he went on to the sidewalk by the next building and he hit more people there and just kept going i see no reason of i seen a white van with film with red coloring on it and all i saw was that he smashed

into someone over there he just went on the sidewalk he just started hitting everybody he hit every single person on the sidewalk anybody in israel you would hit the bus stop everything was shattered there was a lady in there i saw i just stopped and i looked the night went after it again all i see is this crumbling up one by one and one by one. dragged on and there blood is all over the young empress is really bad haha and i'm still shaking i'm still dying from this i can't believe this is happening this is like unbelievable this is on believable. i just got marks and i saw here and i want to just go to find something wrong and not so many people just shout stop the car not again just keep moving and needed some people and straight people lie down here and you know well as the same time as this deadly event was unfolding toronto is hosting the g seven foreign ministers meeting of some of the world's most advanced

economies russia is once again top of the agenda britain's foreign secretary is there pushing for joint efforts against moscow what we decided was that we will going to send a jew certain group that would look at russian malign behavior in all this money for stations whether it's cyber war whether it's this information assassination attempts whatever it happens to be and collectively try and call it out russia analysts martin mccauley say britain is willing to take any action possible to back its accusations against russia and say face. britain is in a difficult position now. because they have made accusations against russia leisure gaza strip rounds and also didn't do well and therefore if they don't do anything it is then just allow it to die away britain would be seen as very weak when i think the british government has mullingar by taking about what could incite do.

to in fact punished russia. the u.s. steps. in space but washington say's it's not for sharing the final frontier of that story and more after this short break.

trades that have been wrong for five years one is the dollar is going to crash that goal is going to twenty five hundred in the very short term and that three the bond market is going to crash almost three trades and absolutely wrong for five years and they've taken many people out on a stretcher. welcome back to artsy the u.s. appears to be sticking its claim to the stars with washington making it clear that the final frontier is america's demain the us air force has even released a video on the dangers of other nations waging war in space. revisionist couple towers have

a new focus for their impression their target space they don't have to dominate and just disrupt and. get us into t.v. episode that is an actual advertisement for the us or a force i discussed what appears to be a new space race with nuclear in order. u.s. has just unveiled its latest plan to fit senses to its satellites and it's not just its own satellites it's going to be doing that it's also its allies satellites and satellites kafer communication navigation and intelligence that these days especially in the scenario of war and the fear all reasoning is that potential adverse arrays of the u.s. may be capable of hacking or even disabling these satellites by sharing that situational data with its allies the idea is that this will deter any potential attacks and it really is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to spending in space because in case you weren't aware space warfare is the big defense trend

right now is the new black and if you don't want to take my word for it here's the for secretary i cannot think of the military action does not depend on space russia and china are developing capabilities to disable our satellites but it seems like the big incentive for such a focus seems to be the capabilities of these potential adverse arrays with their own space programs of course it's china and russia and there's this idea of a space war being promoted as something not to distinguishable from a video game see if you can spot the difference between the actual air force space come on promo video and a video game united states air force has owned this high ground space for dating other nations other air forces only dream of making such a claim but what if their dream became reality never expects something trust to turn against you. millions feel the effects. airports infrastructure. so. skilled immigration will

compete and will win. i'm pretty lucky to keep the other structures on the screen there because i would have been able to distinguish between a video game and what is now reality by. us or force what's the big grand plan here well that pouring billions into this new space technology roping in space whiz kids such as space that long musk who can show that he can not only deliver he can do it quickly you know no need to wait around years and years for a prototype any longer and while the jamming of satellites is one concern and the question now is you know when are we going to see or how long is it before we see actual physical attacks in outer space and some reports say this is already a possibility in fact speaking in february the u.s. air force chief of staff said that it was just a matter of years before we're going to see american forces fighting from space now

regardless of whether this is the case or not the u.s. is definitely determined to be a leader in this field the curator of warfare has changed vision a constellation of man our satellites always the predator never the prey and in his own inimitable way the president of the united states also expressed his excitement at the militarization of space space is a warfighting domain name just like the air and sea. we may even have a space force develop another one space force the air force one of the space schools we have the army the navy as soon as things seem to be steaming ahead to record speed here in you know people might be wondering why the law is all resolutions to draw a line and you know how far people can take this whole space was idea well actually there is almost a decade ago there were one hundred seventy eight countries they voted on

a un resolution to prevent a space arms race there were only two countries that abstained was the u.s. and israel also washington blocked a joint russian chinese effort to ban all weapons in space so perhaps an inkling that almost a decade ago that the u.s. had designs on the militarization of space then was perhaps already as you said staking its claim to the stars. coming right back done to earth it is just over fifty days before fifty world cup twenty eighteen kicks off in russian ortiz star studded team is traveling across russia checking the preparations for the biggest sporting event of the year legendary goalkeeper peter schmeichel has been to you catherine burke for his show that episode is to air on wednesday but for now there's a quick preview. this

was. not worth. that thought her ass. elliston is getting international recognition with the help of israel at least in the world of zoos remember wolf it was dismissive loving you like it. this isn't my cup of tea is going to have no clothes sunday all mediated. no shot no doubt i just hope. the only palestinians who gets the most help from its jerusalem counterparts i don't think this is about those who endure under the vision the only could give us. and the earth is all of your knowledge gather this lady of the muscle that you had i'm a digital t.v. i'm a doesn't seem to do more camillus also don't piss off. los

angeles the city of luxury and fame but also an alarming number of people living in the streets. the simple fact in l.a. he's there's just not enough shelter even if people on the streets right now decided to come in there's nowhere to come in it's been a struggle. to get this man from his own response to the problem and constructed dozens of tiny homes for people in need of shelter when you have nothing in order to go. you know having some like this may as well be a castle but do the earth or it is accept such solution tiny house on a city parking space is not a solution your craft to have someone monitoring. the site otherwise it'll be a free for all and is there a better alternative to end the homelessness crisis. i've

been saying the numbers mean something they matter the us is over twenty trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth he longs to the ultra rich eight point six percent market saw a thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred trade per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars ai industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only number you need to remember is one one business show you can't afford to miss the one and only boom bust. a play for many clubs over the years so i know the game inside guides. football

nine eleven till two thousand and nine and those stock options quadrupled in price he made about a billion dollars off the war there's a great if you change the phone defending the woman he is no longer about being interviewed the american enterprise institute he says he would be a disaster these things who are we doing a. good home for vitamins do change the new vanity and that's one for the method do you do this work for however many hundreds of millions of dollars going to events in the future. u.s. military contractor k.b.r. is under legal fire today over real fires in iraq the firm is charged with causing illnesses from massive burn pits used to incinerate garbage there. the veterans who are now suing k.b.r. because of their they believe service connected health interests say that

k.b.r. short sighted didn't install center raters when they should have had burned all this hazardous waste when it was a guess the regulations to do so and as a result they're sick of all the contracts that k.b.r. and held. require them to comply with e.p.a. regulations the allegation is that k.b.r. rather than. complying with a contract complying with these environmental regulations disposing only of what should be disposed of using incinerators doing it the right way for reasons often related to profit margins was disposing of dangerous toxins in a way that directly impacted the health of soviet troops. seeing stuff that was nuclear biological and chemical products this.
