9:02 pm
a significant development and a great intelligence achievement that the all who was sure iran has one reason and one reason only to hide this information why would a terrorist regime hide and meticulously catalog good secret nuclear files if not to use them it of lootera do a state hiding its nuclear weapons program what other country would do such a thing some will remember netanyahu has twenty twelve un speech and the cartoon bomb iran's foreign ministry has already called his presentation a propaganda show but the issue here is also a serious one since the onset netanyahu has been an ardent critic of the iran agreement so this is a terrible deal. i think this deal is a bad thing to do or it should never have been concluded. and in a few days. president trump. will decide well makers the solution
9:03 pm
and what to do with the nuclear deal. i'm sure he'll do the right thing the right thing for the united states. the right thing for israel and the right thing. for the produce of the world this development comes at a crucial time for this international framework in less than two weeks president trump will decide the future course of u.s. action is likely to differ strongly from the other members of the five plus one group despite last week's niceties during president micron's visit to the states so far trump has kept his cards close to his chests we'll see what happens his favorite phrase whatever does come about on may the twelfth there's a new york who will do all he can to convince the world that scrapping the deal is the right way forward even at the cost of years of negotiations and the delicate regional power balance was down you mentioned it took a lot of time to close the iran deal in twenty fifteen terror on agreed to strict
9:04 pm
limits on its nuclear program and to open its facilities for more ensuring in return some international sanctions against the country were lifted. well the white house has agreed with the israeli prime minister saying iran has a robust nuclear weapons program that it has tried and failed to hide from the world but the european union's foreign policy chief released a statement on monday responding to netanyahu is presentation federica moderately said the e.u. must consider the details of netanyahu is claims and get the assessment of the international atomic energy agency he also noted the agency has published ten reports certifying that iran has fully complied with its commitments or political science professor dr magid bottrell says the claims of the israeli prime minister are unjustified it's a masterpiece show by meeting yeah and this is not the first one here is in no position to talk and criticize any country of slamming
9:05 pm
to have. with the proliferation treaty. cloying used to sign it repeatedly germany has responded immediately the press release saying that it's going to examine those documents they are sure that iran is a boy doing. the deed the only one is trump who is not convinced or wants to pull out. and the. poor. for a well known reason. south korea's president has reportedly said donald trump deserves a nobel peace prize for his efforts to deescalate the situation in the korean peninsula it follows that historic meeting between the leaders of the north and south which saw both sides pledged to rid the potential of nuclear weapons before
9:06 pm
the end of the year the states also agreed on friday to for we end the korean war which dates back to nine hundred fifty three they back to sign a peace treaty and agreed to involve the u.s. and china in the process. well trump was quick to take credit for easing the tensions on the peninsula and his supporters are also now saying he should get the nobel prize for his efforts in a recent tweet trump suggested he's more deserving member acca bomber who was given the award just after he became president at a rally on saturday trump's front seem to agree. the nuclearization of the korean issue thank you thank you do you think the. white star struck you. so does trump really have a chance of scooping the award with more on this his r.t.c. quotient on off. the nobel peace prize an award for human rights champions
9:07 pm
peacekeepers and presidents who would later drop at least twenty six thousand bombs on seven foreign nations in just one year the prize is clearly viewed as such a meaty addition to donald trump's track record that someone under a stolen identity actually forged his nomination for the award two years in a row supporters of the idea have named the negotiations between the koreas as trump's main qualification for real this time. what do you think. president trump had to do with it i'll tell you what i like about everything with and as we've been told trump has the best words and those he applied to north korea directly he is a sick puppy rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself obviously he's a pretty smart cookie we all saw that intricate game of diplomacy we will have no
9:08 pm
choice but to totally destroy north korea they will be met with fire fury witnessed trump a saying that whole quid pro quo thing we are sending an armada. or a pair of we have submarines very powerful and i will say this. he is doing the wrong thing is making a big mistake let's be frank those who call trump a peacemaker more or less share the logic of those who nicknamed vish gun a persuader trump style of making peace equally applies to iran big government that gives terrorist safe harbor financial back in i am speaking of course of a rare the rogue regime a rand can sprint towards a rapid nuclear weapons break though where no matter where you go
9:09 pm
in the middle east you see the fingerprints of iran behind problems for goodness sake here pointed as national security advisor a man who just last year thought this was a good idea and that's why this works twenty nine. here. syria is felt the full impact of trumps peace making if things keep going the way they are the country will be celebrating the annual tomahawked day sometime around mid spring but again maybe a nobel peace prize and trump do fit together at the end of the day after all what does obama get to have all the nice things to listen or the next moment our believes the improvement in relations on the korean peninsula has nothing to do with trump. donald trump's policy towards the koreas has been one of hostility at
9:10 pm
sanctions of threats of fire and fury his defense minister jim mattis threaten north korea with extermination and their policy essentially failed because nuclearization in north korea succeeded because kim jong un extended an olive branch to the south and because moon j.n. has been so courageous in this effort to reconcile with the north and so really calls for donald trump to receive a nobel prize really reflect how insular and parochial view of right wing is right wing supporters is donald trump is really not played a role in the then it's around north and south korea. palestinian doctors are struggling to cope with the number of injured following a months of protests along the gaza border the red cross says hospitals there only get around four to eight hours of power a day that have instructions have been met by have
9:11 pm
a response from israel including smyth a fire the palestinian health ministry in gaza says more than two thousand people have received leg e.g.o.'s a lack of medical treatment has also resulted in unnecessary amputations for one palestinian athlete it meant the end of his career. to go rushing about upon the soldiers were brutally shooting people an old man got shot in front of me he was protesting peacefully and not throwing any stones and he got shot with an explosive bullet i spend six hours in surgery and then one week in the intensive care unit and i didn't think my leg would be like this i couldn't feel it i had fractured bones and my leg kept bleeding out i wasn't aware that it would be amputated it seems like my relatives told the doctors not to tell me that i was an athlete i used to play multiple sports and i used to play for the palestinian union. well replying to requests for comments the israeli defense
9:12 pm
forces said they'd issued repeated warnings to palestinians approaching the border fence they also cite their duty to prevent threats to their country another young palestinian who dreamed of becoming a footballer also found his encounter with the i.d.f. a life changing club. during my food will career i hope to be one of the best players in gaza after this injury my football career is over these really response with live fire during the protest i was filming myself to post it later we sure have the right to do while i was filming a sniper shot me in the knee and it was dislocated i was targeted without warning i wasn't a threat to the soldiers or all if god helps me i will be able to have surgery and hold the palestinian flock in their european countries my dream is to produce a p.d. in the european league. human rights watch has expressed particular concern over
9:13 pm
what it says is the deliberate targeting of the legs of unarmed demonstrators by the israeli military the issue was also raised by the israel and palestine director of the rights group omar shakir. we continue to see every week hundreds of people injured very serious injuries we're talking about people whose you know bones have been pulverized shattered as aid workers on the ground have described as x. rays and photos we've seen in our visits to hospitals have shown you have people that have you know he large massive exit wounds if people are actually crossing a fence entering israeli territory every right to use non-lethal means for i.d.f. swords to carry out arrest if there has been you know criminal have been putting in crossing you know from border without authorization but using live ammunition right now using intentional lethal force is only permitted under international law in response to an imminent threat to life or limb and that's not what's happening here
9:14 pm
these are these this is using force to accomplish other objectives which are not sanctioned by international law you of mortars that are on their face on the lawful and really responsibility for these awful killings go to the highest levels of these really government. there's been a global backlash over the israeli military's response to the demonstrations in gaza since the end of munch forty three palestinians have died in protest during that period including four children. with local elections imminent in the u.k. the alleged russian meddling saga has taken another twist the sunday times
9:15 pm
newspaper claims that russian twitter bots trying to influence last year's general election in favor of labor party to jeremy cool but. that takes a closer look. the sunday times has provided us all with a little russian bought deja vu its groundbreaking investigation with swansea university has cracked the code on how the labor party did so well in this year's general elections and the answer is russian tweets of course research that just that was not destroyed at the time superbowl corban and to down the street by bombarding the public with positive messages in support of labor using twitter columns that were mostly created after the election was just that early last year so let's break down that research sixty five hundred russian twitter accounts identified by their primary language work to bash the ruling conservatives and promote the labor party in the run up to the election and a few examples are given as to how they achieve their meddling goals such as promoting stories condemning trees that may for cuts and police numbers and funding
9:16 pm
another point made in the article was the massive attendance seen at corbin's rallies but even if the scores of people who showed up were only there are things to bots re tweeting corbin's location does that somehow make them not true supporters other suspicious activity it was a push by the bots on election day telling people to get out there and vote how dare they say the article doesn't provide a list of the accounts they monitored and said that many of them have been deleted or suspended by twitter conservative m.p.'s have vowed to dig further into the claims russian interference in the politics of the u.k. is a breach of election law and something we've got to act to stop as labor representatives have slammed the article as a classic sunday times smear campaign the labor party's people power do election campaign attracted huge levels of public support online we're not aware of any from to me bought categorically did not pay for any not aware of any of our supporters doing so. other waivers supporters have even chosen to embrace the accusations.
9:17 pm
now the report does not comment on who specifically was behind the campaign or how many people actually start the tweets nor does it say whether or not the attempt was successful but the point is if a book comes up with shocking results there is clearly no other plausible explanation apart from the russians did it r.t. has asked for a response from twitter and for the times to provide additional information about their research we'll let you know their responses meanwhile former british intelligence officer animation of feels the newspaper's claims are all just part of a plant on different opinions the west does not like dissent it does not like
9:18 pm
alternative views and the internet offers people the all of the chance of developing these alternative news and assumes you have one of those alternative viewpoints in the west you must of course be working as one of putin's useful idiots who is a russian troll bottle whatever it is we saw this last week as well there was a report on sky news and they were accusing two accounts particularly of on twitter saying that they are russia russia bots they were human beings and so sky news invited one of these people on the news and he came on to sky and argued that he was a human being strangely enough and it turned out he was the source seventy year old pensioner who was just angry at what was going on politically in the u.k. so it is really reasonable they're trying to stigmatize british citizens who have an alternative view. the un has raised concerns about the number of black people killed in the u.k. by police on that story after the break.
9:19 pm
we lived in surreal times a short time ago even imagining a negotiated end to the tensions on the korean peninsula was a flight into fancy but here we are this is becoming a foreign policy victory for trump. the new global economic war is unfolding in the realm of education the right to education is being supplanted by the right to access education. higher education is becoming just another product that can be born and sold but it's not just about education anymore it's also about running a business and what you're good. luck with this is also the kind of fellow we could mimic. what is the place of students in this business model for college i was born
9:20 pm
now and i am extremely more education for the new global economic war. welcome back the un has expressed serious concerns about the disproportionate number of prominent people dying in the u k g the excessive use of force by police the deaths reinforce the experiences of structural racism over policing and criminalization of people of african descent and other minorities in the u.k. . the accusation of racism comes after a review of police stater it found officers used force against twelve thousand people during three months last year one in three was black though the proportion of black people in the population is far smaller attention to the issue was highlighted by a controversial incident in july when a black man was killed by police.
9:21 pm
britain's home office has bad to investigate the allegations r.t. discussed the issue with a range of experts the police a bit like james bond they have a license to kill with impunity and i say with impunity because the number seems to be an injustice i don't know of any policeman that has gone to prison for killing a civilian on the streets of london at the end the evidence doesn't go so far as beyond reasonable doubt i think is one of the most impossible things to do to
9:22 pm
prosecution officer the only reason is the offices of that to protect us so it's quite a natural when you see a police officer in the dock in his uniform crime isn't driven by race crime is driven by socioeconomic factors or young males in inner london get involved in street crime and socioeconomic factors mean that there are more your miles are black in areas and on than the. other rices that's not the same in other cities and so when you look at the people involved in street crime in those areas the disproportionality is not that. barcelona defender gerard piqué turned camera man as his side celebrated winning their seventh spanish league title in ten years the catalan star took the camera from artie's video agency ruptly to film boss us bus stop parade. i. i

sincerely grateful for the fair decision of donald j. trump in support of ukraine and in defense of freedom and democracy ukraine has been pushing for western countries to provide more military equipment the u.s. says it will also supply elements of logistics and program support. after the coup in twenty fourteen ukraine began the campaign against separatists in the pro russian east more than ten thousand people have been killed in the ongoing conflict international affairs commentator marco gassers thinks the operational change may lead to further escalation. we could well see an increase a ratcheting up of the military stakes in the donbass region for mentored by her with his new military. powers it does sound like he wants to have more power to control the manifestation of of his policies in the country he wants to please domestically be the man in charge so certainly he will want to show that
9:25 pm
he's doing something with the change that he's instituted between the security services and the military so we should expect an increase in violence from the cavan regime towards the donbass region. now a child's imagination can be pretty vivid but when a teacher rejected one russian school boys picture of the stars as inaccurate his father appealed to a higher authority. to send the stars like that don't exist in space i need to read random. will close order for the subject we wanted to cheer him up and then we decided to
