10:02 pm
memorable moment from pompei speech was when he vowed to help the united states get back its whacker. i talked about getting back our swagger and i'll fill in what i mean by that but it's important the united states diplomatic corps needs to be in every corner every stretch of the world executing missions on behalf of this country pompei a speech was well received by everyone from the media to other officials some don't even wait to compare of the tillerson saying that he was more open than tillerson ever was pump a i did however stress the concept of american exceptionalism which is generally considered controversial in some circles at least i talked in my my hearing about the fact that this nation is so exceptional and so incredibly blessed this is a unique exceptional country russia is unique but not exceptional it wasn't always smooth sailing for pompei o his nomination was initially met with fierce backlash from both ends of the spectrum mostly democrats but
10:03 pm
a few republicans here and there speaking of his views on foreign policy let's check out what pompei i had to say about north korea and iran prior to his nomination. i can't think of a thing that has put america in a better position as a result of this deal we're a year out from the agreement and every single action the iranians have taken has been bolder and starker than the ones they took before the agreement. a very real danger. by 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 throughout this whole debate pompei i stayed pretty busy over easter weekend he met with the d.p. r. k. s. leader marshall kim jong un but it might get a little bit more hectic now that things are getting tense with iran it will be interesting to see how pompei all handle that one given that he's openly pro
10:04 pm
israeli and pro saudi which could present somewhat of an issue when he's dealing with their mutual arch enemy so what is have to see if this leads to any changes and more importantly if they're positive ones president trump has nine days to decide whether to extend a sanctions relief or you run under an international nuclear deal and the israeli prime minister benyamin netanyahu is urging washington to withdraw from the agreement. so they're trying to bamboozle the entire world and very glad that president trump has. enough of that we're not going to be hoodwinked we're not going to be taken for a ride we're going to have to do a serious serious change or to make sure that iran does not have nuclear weapons that means this deal was a terrible deal why give this speech in english and do it in such a big way well because i wanted the world to hear all of it while bibi may claim he's trying to convince the world that really isn't true the only person he needs
10:05 pm
to convince ease trump and given trump spots rhetoric that may not be so difficult to do donald trump made it clear he didn't like the deal back in the days of his campaign and netanyahu is presentation more showmanship than facts seemed to really mesh with trump tonight i'm here to tell you one thing. i think of anything what's happening today and what's happened over the last little while and what we've learned has really shown that i've been one hundred percent right his presentation was largely in english and he went all out to prove that iran is developing nuclear weapons he presented thousands of documents c.d.'s as part of his powerpoint presentation except almost all of it was old some of the stuff be presented as an indisputable evidence dated to nine hundred ninety three
10:06 pm
almost nothing beyond two thousand and three experts said john brennan former cia director said netanyahu showed nothing that indicated that iran had violated the nuclear deal and the international atomic agency agrees the agency had no credible indications of activities in iran relevant to the development of a nuclear explosive device of the two thousand and nine the us off the b.b.c. stun said that this proves that iran quote has a robust plan this nuclear weapons program a few hours later they changed it quietly to iran quote had a robust clandestine nuclear weapons program they blamed clerical error for that one nonetheless they say iran is still dishonest iran lied on the front end they were dishonest actors so far it's been entirely unconvincing experts buying it
10:07 pm
u.s. officials skeptical pundits and convinced european allies trump to come to his senses and reconsider almost everyone else is too but benjamin netanyahu has his charms and he's done it before there is a question what's to it that's. and is working and is advancing towards the development of nuclear weapons question what's we see how confident he was only an invasion and thousands of deaths late to did we find out that b.b. had lied his charms never worked with a bomb and they didn't get along all that well but they go to along great with bush and it looks like it's working with trump great friends those two they've both claimed the iran nuclear agreement was struck in two thousand and fifteen it was brokered by the us china britain russia france and germany and hailed as
10:08 pm
a major diplomatic breakthrough the negotiations took nine years in exchange for some sanctions being lifted in tehran agreed to strict limits on its nuclear program and to open up its facilities to international inspectors don't know mcadams from the ron paul peace institute believes the israeli leader is trying to manipulate the u.s. president netanyahu knows very well that he cannot take on iran on his own bibi is playing trump like a fiddle but look around trump is good all the same losers that were in power in two thousand and two who lied us into going into iraq or we're supposed to believe that somehow just a week or so before trump has to make his decision on iran that all of a sudden it come into this amazing information here let us rush to share with you this information telling you how evil they are it's all pure theatrical just like his ridiculous bomb thing at the un it's just a desperate ploy to lie us into another war. paris has been gripped by its
10:09 pm
worst may day unrest since one thousand nine hundred sixty eight on tuesday more than a thousand and artists showed up at a union led rally against president micron's labor reforms masked riders hurled smoke grenades destroyed cars and clashed with police more than two hundred activists were arrested dubinsky reports now from paris. it's come over here and you'll be able to see the bullets here of a fast food restaurant that have been put up that was completely and utterly destroyed yesterday restaurants further behind on the street will also destroyed and basically the police did very little in fact nothing for a long time when this destruction was happening it was only further on into the demonstration when the violence took place at little bit further on that they actually did something now they've said the reason that they didn't react as quickly as some people say they should have is because they were trying to avoid
10:10 pm
collateral damage there's also been criticism criticism over president he's currently only official tool of a stray here some people saying the president shouldn't have left france when there was so much social and ease here he has hit back saying what did you expect me to sit at home and watch it on t.v. but the violence by the black books as a say some of the worst that i've seen in paris take a look at what unfolded on may day in the middle of cashews now starting when the police are warning tonight we're looking for you'll see the tear gas is coming up to us the police move again and not because just behind us there is a fire going on the demonstrators have put fire to a vehicle and emerged to bike and as you can see i don't smoke because it. well as you might have gathered we've just been in the middle of what was quite a large clash between the police and the protesters just look behind me this is one
10:11 pm
of the trucks with the water cannons and you can see the gendarme now coming down and you can see some of the water in the form that's been on the ground to try and push these protesters back take a look behind me and they're actually trying to barricade themselves up now that's off to they set fire to what looked like a g c p the fact it's still own fire over that. in the distance what the process is did is if you just turn around a little bit more what can we have a look at this you may see this big policeman of dark smoke coming up here and the protesters what they did is they lit fires see what seemed to be some sort of motorbike and a car show that. r.t. paris. u.k. defense secretary is calling on journalists and i t experts to help the government tackle online propaganda are you going to comment he is a rising star a fireplace salesman turned defense secretary he is gavin williamson and he
10:12 pm
summons you my fellow british geek it's battlefield world wide web and the u.k. army is ready to charge at the enemy in this age where there's so much this information where britain's enemies will use every angle they can do to change the narrative people who have traditionally thought about joining reserve forces we want them to come in but actually it's looking to different people whether it be journalists those people with amazing cyber nighty skills those people with the ability to really understand about getting messages across their worst nightmare is coming true with the enemy has infiltrated but your id skills are a game changer we are living in the era of fake news and competing narratives the government will respond with more and better use of national security communications to tackle these interconnected complex challenges. fake new moves
10:13 pm
and adverse are you worthy of a call to arms from the military chief himself by his standards that's a pretty big deal to realize that it's enough to look at his voting record from the time when he was a conservative m.p. the investigation into the iraq war for instance was below the worthy attention bar for williamson in twenty sixteen he voted against an inquiry into the contrast between the public statements and private actions in the run up to the war human rights and equality i'm also not something worth fighting for according to williamson like when he voted against outlawing discrimination on the basis of cost you know the situation when you can be written off as scum for your whole life simply because you were born into the wrong family but what williamson voted consistently for though was foreign bombings from our surveillance and bulk data collection we've come
10:14 pm
a long way from churchill's we shall fight them on the beaches to the point where we're going to fight them on twitter and we're going to fight them in facebook and the rest of social media so i think that the very suggestion that this is a priority for our armed forces is is very disturbing if you're looking at journalists. join up with the armed forces i find really peculiar and very strange as you say a journalist can do a perfectly good job discovering truth and exposing things that need to be exposed through the normal channels so why would they suddenly become. of if you like a particular aspect of government but of course with fake news being such a hot topic now if least we can be sure the british army will stay trendy at least while williamson is in charge. us a democratic party is failing to win over young voters according to a new. hole
10:15 pm
a survey by reuters news agency found that support for the democrats has fallen from fifty five percent two years ago to forty six percent in the under thirty four age group parties and went to the streets of new york for us to gauge whether the younger generations values are really shifting. are young americans just less rebellious and more friendly to tradition and authority or is there a problem on the left side of the spectrum we decided to talk with some younger americans and find out shutting down conservative or right wing speakers on college campuses to identify with that shutting them down now i don't think we should completely shut them down and why agassi i think everyone should have a voice and be able to speak on campuses you shouldn't close it seems to be to want to be open to anything i mean especially if there's a college setting that's a good as the last place we should be saying no to open ideas and discussion i don't think that's fair because everybody is entitled to their opinion we don't have to agree with each other that doesn't necessarily mean we can have
10:16 pm
a civilized conversation facebook a different social media outlets saying a certain racial words are offensive and they'll still strike them down tape speech do you agree with that. no i don't. and once again everybody has. their right to. talk on they want to talks because they want to speak it's a free country so why not share yeah they shouldn't send say things like i think that a lot worse things are happening in the world what about like getting rid of certain sports practices they say are offensive to women like ring girls in boxing or cheerleading. i would say leave the option for to something that exists and don't necessarily like promote it's as a thing we don't necessarily have to get rid of it i think we should just to just put more males into it there's somebody always willing to take the jobs years ago it was liberals that were calling for freedom of speech and challenging social norms but these days we're increasingly seeing calls for censorship coming from the
10:17 pm
left so is it possible that younger americans simply don't want to comply with the rules being imposed by the liberal order are conservatives now the rebels. r.t. new york. debate is also raging over a so-called cultural appropriation and whether it is inappropriate an idea promoted by someone on the left in the latest case a young woman who was criticized for opposing a picture online wearing a traditional chinese dress to her school prom.
10:18 pm
to ever and causing so much negativity i mean no disrespect to chinese culture i'm simply sharing my appreciation to their culture i'm not deleting my posts because i've done nothing for the culture or the way people dress to the way they talk about it as they speak about the democrat party over the last decade in america has been anything but the american people will have a democrat party is that they focus on issues to create a mentality that's that's the ruling dynamic of the democratic party they go out and seek people who feel what they kind of fanned the flames of the mentality convincing them that they have an oppressor and then they say we're here to rescue
10:19 pm
. the boy scouts of america are changing their name after more than one hundred years of history now is the organization is allowing girls to join the word boy is said to be dropped. we wanted to land on something that evokes the past but also conveys the inclusive nature of the program going forward we're trying to find the right way to say we're here for both young men and young women. of the boy scouts along with the girl scouts of america were founded in the early twentieth century the two groups or set up to teach life skills and aid character development for boys and girls separately and the girl scouts have said that they will be keeping their name girl scouts is a premier leadership development organisation for girls we are and will remain the first choice for girls and parents well in a letter to boys accounts of america last year the girl scouts accuse the movement of trying to up and a paradigm that has served both boys and girls so well throughout the years
10:20 pm
meanwhile twitter users have joined the debate with plenty of people criticizing the name change fabulous move forward i've been impressed by the boy scouts and eagle scouts their focus on acquiring confidence confidence and real life skills always wished they had something as rigorous for girls as a form of boy scout i say this is a terrible idea boys need to be with other boys at times without girls being present to be boys most girls would not want to do what the boys do and it is wrong to change the boy scouts in this way the boy scouts are opening the doors to girls due to losing membership and money the girl scouts organization a completely against it because now the girl scouts will lose membership feminists and loving the boy scouts move not realizing it may destroy the women run girl scouts we heard some contrasting views on the story from political activist kate smyth wade and legal and media analyst lionel. there isn't a great deal of evidence to suggest that only boys want to do traditionally male
10:21 pm
activities and only girls want to do traditionally female activities there is very very obviously there are a lot of girls soccer like climbing trees and there are lots of way there is like baking cakes and to try to say to young people you have to only do this what we should of course do is give them a range of activities that he led and actually encourage them to try new stuff because that's what. it is what it is right now i found out what this is about and you know it there was an absolute determined effort to destroy whatever was left of this thing called the jones or it's now considered almost like racist or inappropriate to do anything to distinguish boys from girls who are playing it so safe we've got a helmet there was a time when if you were a red blooded american male that's not how they're always learned to have kids you know here's where a large crowd i read here and there i mean it's fine and there was nothing wrong
10:22 pm
with it i'm kind of concerned with the idea that it's somehow great to encourage boys to to fight and be super of super rough and super violent with each other i think that this is two thousand and eighteen and the idea that it's somehow good for young men to be thrown into some sort of boxing ring i think that we should offer young people boys and girls a whole range of activities and there are definitely arguments in favor of allowing them to do some of those activities and violent marriage definitely arguments in favor of allowing them to do at least some of those activities environment most people think that this is absurd kids are not allowed to be kids anymore people are afraid that there are genders and they have boys like to do boys stuff and their girls like to do girls stuff it's not accurate their stick it's true. you know armenia tens of thousands of protesters brought to the capital your event to a grinding halt on wednesday. blocked major roads after parliament refused to
