in the post minutes we received at least ten people with severe injuries to the stomach ache and they will any minute the ambulances are still carrying hundreds of injured people to the hospitals there is a lack of medicine and medical equipment in the hospitals and they are crowded so as you see this is another ambulance just came just right now. from the fence and as you see this the ambulance has at least the fire palestinians that have been injured what happened right now near the fence is that at least two thousand taliban in protestors and try to interfere and break the fence and what happened is those are your choices every addict there violently and this time did. i not these palestinian protesters were broke the price that according to palestinian minister by at least twenty palestinians are in severe critical condition and they. declared their death and any minute. the israeli army

tweeted that rioters were trying to breach the fence and that its soldiers operated in accordance with the rules of engagement the army also added that its goal is to protect israeli civilians on that it could not allow security infrastructure to be damaged the anti israel rallies are now into that fifth week over forty palestinians have already been killed and up to six thousand wounded with the i.d.f. using a contra controversial kind of rubber bullets doctors without borders says its teams have treated more people this april than an all of twenty fourteen and that was the year of the gaza war following images from the ground showed journalists covering their rallies have also been injured the un has also denounced the use of live ammunition by the israeli defense forces against palestinians. israel's failure to consistently prosecute file ations committed by members of its security forces encourages them to use deadly force against a fellow human beings he from when they present no threat in the context of an

occupation such as gaza killings resulting from the un for full use of force may also constitute willful killings which are a grave breach of the fourth geneva convention. secretly recorded or you know has revealed that the us democratic party's leadership pressured a candidate for a house seat in colorado to drop out of the rice where he would like me to get out of the race. yeah i know you're fundraising for. you guys or someone money and. then. we.

sort of. i know it's undemocratic a smaller. sum at someone and then try to read the primary. but you were part of that process as the levy tilman supports a single payer healthcare system and equal rights for women on the l g b t community he was endorsed by the state senator in may last year as we've just heard has been asked to drop out of the race the house minority leader however has defended the leadership's interference in the primary race. i don't see anything inappropriate let. mr hoyer was engaged in a conversation about the realities of life in the race as to who can win the general election not the first time the us democrats are trying to influence elections e-mails revealed by wiki leaks show the party's officials tried to use bernie's song as religion against him in favor of her hillary clinton both were

representing the democrats in the race for the u.s. presidential seat in twenty sixteen moreover leaks also showed that the vice chair of the democratic national committee at the time secretly and inappropriately gave clinton debate questions in advance and that was during the democratic primary and the current chair of the democratic national committee however says incidents like this are a thing of the past but it we're moving forward we have to make sure that everything is fair and open and everybody has a fair shake and that's what we're going to do well the tape recording released by the intercept to put that into question journalist and author daniel believes democrats are becoming less democratic. there's a split in the party between the base and the and the higher echelons the elected officials it's totally undemocratic it's smoke and mirrors the base thinks they're getting a choice but they really aren't because the the real candidates or the side are

chosen behind closed doors. the democratic party is in the danger of self-destruct it's it's trying to think that will win in two thousand and eighteen if it passes itself off as the republican party. but that's a very risky tactic because the risk the danger is low you wind up needing its base of support which will either stay at home or vote for green candidates or others who are challenging the democrats from the left so they're trying to try to walk a very thin line and i don't think they'll be able to to do it. the spokes person the french political movement generation that is facing online abuse after a recent migrants stunt by the right wing group last week its members attempt to block an alpine pass used by my around one hundred activists built a fence on the border between if only in france. spoke to the movement spoke spokes

a baby with nature's blessing. that damascus in the past fourteen days and we speak to a journalist on the ground in yemen who claims he has proof that american made bombs were used in a double tap strike on a wedding that killed or injured nearly one hundred men women and children well we shouldn't be too shy about it was the speaker of the house of commons referring to a number parliamentary scandal of this week's u.k. pm puce well the simple coming up in today's going underground but first in the past twenty four hours syria was just one of the topics at the nato summit in brussels for discussion nato nation conflicts from venezuela to ukraine to central africa to the south china sea and if anyone was in any doubt that donald trump has abandoned his america first strategy here is trump's pick for secretary of state on trump's right to bomb syria i believe the president has the domestic authority to do that i don't think i don't think that has been disputed by republicans or democrats throughout an extended period of time actually it's disputed mostly by

our founding fathers who believe they gave that authority to congress the voice there of senator rand paul who been a tiddley came around to confirming cia director mike pompei is jobs which to become the u.s.a.'s top diplomat well joining me now is award winning foreign correspondent and author of syria burning charles glass charles thanks so much for coming back on good to see theresa may joining macro and trump and enforcing redlines chemical on. the weapons in syria well as i recall the british contribution was eight rockets out of over two hundred of the wasn't it wasn't militarily significant but it shows that britain and france will willingly be dragged along with american policy in the middle east and sometimes actually lead the americans to things they might not otherwise have done let's get on to that leaving in a second but yeah you can say dragged along the prime minister of a very proud it seemed like the country the prime minister of britain went along

with it without consulting parliament i'm not sure what the outcome parliament would have been if there had been a vote on it well just as in washington. don't trump said that he didn't need congressional approval this government. is forcefully argued and we in fact we had tony blair's attorney general who gave the cause of legal basis for it here on this program would morris saying that in a time of exceptional circumstances a country like britain can fire missiles at an urban environment like damascus no questions well this has to be tested in the courts in both america and britain but it hasn't been yet i think that. the direction the jurisprudence would take because of the war powers act in united states which was which was brought in because of the abuses during the vietnam war era there are restrictions on what the president can do and cannot do militarily abroad in this country because there is no constitution is no such a thing similar to the war powers act. there are indications that part of the should be consulted but maybe doesn't have to be consulted again side from the

constitutional matters here in britain what did you think of the timing of the strike i had of the o.p.c. w. inspectors going to do much to prove that what mainstream media certainly has assessed many times that it was all it was it was a case of the execution before the trial the idea of the o.p.c. w. going to damascus and into tomorrow was that they would investigate and determine whether chemical weapons were indeed used or not and it it should have. there should have been a patient period of waiting to find out what the outcome of that investigation was instead the assumption was as the rebels said that the syrian regime dropped chemical weapons on duma and that was that was seems to be enough you've written about chemical weapons used in the middle east over a decade a good way of getting rid of chemical weapons as strikes from missiles. flown from

will planes are taking off from the mediterranean there has been a great inconsistency in western policy on the use of chemical weapons since one nine hundred eighty during the iran iraq war the united states favored saddam hussein using chemical weapons against the iranians and thousands of iranian soldiers were killed by poison gas and that's indisputable fact in some in some of that gas was manufactured by plants in iraq that were according to american designs in one thousand nine hundred eight saddam hussein at the end of the war bombed the kurdish villages and at that time the united states denied that saddam had done it at first they said it didn't happen and then when when roberts noted investigative journalist from this country went there and brought back soil samples that were tested important down proving that this were these were chemical weapons chemical weapons in saddam's stockpile that they had to admit to the british and the americans had to admit that chemical weapons were used later that they then came up

with a story that the iranians had done it was later when they decided they wanted to get rid of saddam hussein that they admitted that he had done it and that was one of the reasons we're going to war against a great inconsistency if not hypocrisy and in syria both sides have used chemical weapons the government and the rebels and there should be a policy for stopping the use of chemical weapons but i think more importantly for stopping the war itself the by by the best estimate no more than a thousand people have been killed by chemical weapons. five hundred thousand people have been killed so that five hundred four hundred ninety nine thousand people have been killed by conventional weapons supplied by russia iran the united states saudi arabia qatar and turkey syria doesn't manufacture weapons the impetus should be to end the war in the use of all weapons conventional and chemical.
