her nomination but president trump seems to have no qualms with her questionable history in fact he's even praised her for being quote tough on terror so it's unclear whether or not trump's support will be enough for easy confirmation but what is up to see what happens it jeanne has bill has had practically every senior position in the cia's headquarters she's currently the acting director of the cia i knew her when she was the chief of staff in the counterterrorism center she's been in the senior intelligence service for decades but i think that she's not qualified to lead the cia because the actions that she took during the dark period of the cia's torture program disqualify her she has been doing literally everything she can think to do other than. telling the truth about the cia's torture program to get this job gina haskell had the opportunity to say the right thing that this
4:33 pm

4:34 pm
a prominent anti gadhafi opposition leader and a leading member of an anti gadhafi militia as well which is called the libyan islamic fighting group the l i f g that would explain why he fled libya back in two thousand and one just a little bit more information about this group the ally f. g. it operated from one thousand nine hundred five until last year it was considered an al qaeda affiliate and the group stage three attempts to assassinate gadhafi himself so a pretty violent organization so much so that it was regarded as a terrorist group by the u.k. and the u.s. nevertheless despite his checkered past shall we say and his wife have been on a quest for an apology from the british government ever since he was released from prison six years ago and documents discovered after the fall of gadhafi
4:35 pm
revealed that british m i six agents were involved in bel hired just kidnapping so the kidnapping took place in two thousand and four in thailand bel hodges wife fatima was four months pregnant at the time and cia and m i six agents together kidnapped kidnapped them and handed them back over to the gadhafi government where bell hard claims he was then imprisoned and tortured for six years his wife fatima was released after four months just before she gave birth they've managed to get the british government's top lawyer jeremy right to come out in parliament today to apologize so public. it could be to them on behalf of the government they were handed a letter written by the prime minister herself saying that the intelligence head intelligence services here in the u.k. got it wrong that they apologize unreservedly and even awarding half
4:36 pm
a million pounds compensation to bell hodges wife fatima for the psychological trauma that she experienced as a result of the ordeal. reporting there are now israelis kicked out the director of human rights watch for the country well have a look at that story and tell you why plus story on the way just after the break. for a world cup twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time but there was one more question by the way was going to be our coach. guys i know you are nervous he's a huge government and the huge amount of pressure you have to be the center of the problem here with you and all the great. you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get the ball going let's go.
4:37 pm
alone. and i'm really happy to join for the world cup in russia. the special one was also appreciate. the review the r.t. team's latest edition as we go. to look. welcome back israel has revoked the work permit for the director of human rights watch in the country authority said the decision was based on a dossier compiled on kids' activities over the last decade which he reported on
4:38 pm
israel and the palestinian territories for the rights creepy his held his post since april last year and israel has not given him fourteen days to leave the country we spoke to a kid who told us that the real motive behind the decision was to muzzle criticism of the israeli government's activities the reality is all of the allegations in the dossier relate to human rights activities many of which took place years ago before i joined human rights watch when i was a student in university and the reality remains that even according to the interior ministry neither i nor human rights watch promote boycotts human rights watch is an organization that covers over ninety countries across the world we've won a nobel peace prize you know for efforts we document abuses not only by israel but also by the palestinian authority and i have asked this in the first time of course human rights watch that israel has ordered human rights official out of the country
4:39 pm
who've been working here for nearly three decades i made a fifty plus year occupation characterized by systematic rights abuse and institutional discrimination so the real aim is clear it's to muzzle dissent. but human rights watch says this is not about the threat to himself also but about shanklin the organizations activities in israel it also said it supports the director and will fight for the decision to be reversed and washy kerry again says the organization will push on with its work regardless of the obstacles barring me from operating here will not stop our reporting will continue to. documentary its abuses and be vocal about the right situation on the ground but i think it's a very worrying signal guarding where israel is and is going we intend to challenge a decision before an israeli district court. and we intend to continue to raise
4:40 pm
pressure not only to reverse this decision but also to rescind the law that calls for any entry of activists to fully anticipate that their decision or your first and then i will be permitted term in the country. the controversial white helmet screwed praised by the west as a rescue team working in syria has been guaranteed continued support by the british prime minister to resign made the washington's decision to pull the plug on syrian aid funding which includes the white helmets but last week the trumpet ministration froze the us funding with fantasies of civilian lives at risk will the prime minister stick up pledge the government to plug the funding shortfall that now exists and is sure these heroic rescue workers can continue their work ok. i can i say to the honorable gentleman we recognize the very important and valuable work that the white house mates are doing they are as he says doing this in this
4:41 pm
league difficult conditions they are incredibly brave to be continuing that work we do support them we will continue to support them and i rise on the fan the international development secretary will be looking at the level of that support in the future while the issue was raised today during prime minister's questions particular one about the white helmets only member of the labor party and in particular asking the question because of course the u.s. government to decide to cut their funding for the white helmet and so the question well what would the british government be looking to do to plug that gap now it's interesting that the us government has taken that decision because just a couple of months ago in march the white helmets and their senior leaders. we're in washington taking high level meetings with u.s. government officials who were praising them for their work and praising them for their life saving activities as it's been put but not everybody is a fan of the white helmets that we've been repeated allegations that they have been
4:42 pm
. linked to al qaida type groups and that they've been on the front lines where groups like al nusra have been present working hand in hand and also that some of the rescue missions have been nothing but stunts to try to win the world sympathy. and. now the white house continued to maintain that they're purely a humanitarian group and that they have no links to any extremist groups or the like but it's interesting they were founded by a former british army soldier
4:43 pm
a former master nouri by the name of james missouri yeah and so it seems that with this latest pledge by the u.k. government to look into plugging that funding gap the links between britain and the white helmets looks set to continue. around it and i world cup fever is hotting up with a little over a month to go before the event does kick off here in russia earlier today we had the chance to quiz the president of lokomotiv moscow about the tournament his team is just secured the russian premier league title for only the third time and the pride president brought the trophy with him. firstly look congratulations your team the champions of russia has the trophy to prove it to you how does it feel thank you andrew well it's for the absolutely fantastic for us and you know it from suede for for fourteen years this title and now we're also the british now look we're sitting here just thirty five days away from the world cup been around the stadiums
4:44 pm
