6:21 am
listed and have also started to find new ways to vent their anger attaching fire bombs to heights and flying them over the border fence into israeli held territory . the israeli defense forces have said they will continue their operation against the protests which they deem terrorist activity israel has also repeatedly stated it has the right to defend its borders one israelis and palestinians are divided on the border in jerusalem both are protesting against the upcoming relocation of the u.s. embassy there jerusalem has long been a point of contention in the region and the american move is seen by many as a recognition that the city is a part of israel the relocation is scheduled for monday and palestinians have already said they're planning large protests against it. meanwhile israel has ordered the director of human rights watch to leave the country and have revoked his work permit the reason stated his alleged support of an israeli boycott as part
6:22 am
of his role for the rights group omar sheikh a report on israel and the palestinian territories but current israeli decision comes a year after they gave human rights watch a permit to employ him after the initial one was denied israel has given him fourteen days to leave the country human rights watch says this isn't about the director himself but about shutting down criticism of israel's rights records it also says it will fight for the decision to be reversed himself thinks the incident won't impact on the work of human rights watch in the country. barring me from operating here will not stop our reporting we'll continue to document rights 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

6:24 am
in the u.s. by inflaming passions on a range of divisive issues the point of these ads they say was to divide americans but you take a closer look and the real takeaway is russia really really sucks meddling take this ad for the african-american civil rights movement zero clicks zero impressions meaning no one ever saw it real poor interfering right there but next now here is a surprise a blue lives matter post black versus blue sea by a grand total of no one all right so far but how about this one an ad for muslims it says we believe in individual liberty in the free market take heart liberty will prevail the cat g.'s it appears as if posted by
6:25 am
a group defending the second amendment the right to bear arms and there are literally hundreds of such groups and facebook alone ok ok let's think something truly divisive to meek across a black doctor felt humiliated window to airlines flight attendants refused to believe that she was a qualified physician now that's allegedly intended to stir tensions to tear americans apart except that's exactly how it was reported in the us media is responding to a viral facebook post from an african-american doctor who says she was discriminated against on a flight she's. says when the flight attendant yelled for a physician on board she raised her hand but it was rejected you know how much the russians spent in this one hundred thousand dollars huge sum right it's roughly zero point zero zero zero one percent of what trump spent for
6:26 am
his campaign so what's the takeaway russia is really bad meddling some of those ads were never seen by anyone and others were copy pasted from mainstream media and that's if you believe that these were russian ads the only thing viz ads prove is russia will never ever be as good as us media a dividing america the latest join my colleague in a nail at the top of their. united states can always had tools to use and it's a tax on other countries. economic sanctions are often just the beginning another thing you like to do is place some military pressure on the countries a try talking about. and
6:27 am
there has to be an effort to demonize that country and the leader of that country. believe they responsibility for the home. and we need to make rules for the rest. because without us there will be change. for a world cup twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goal people is available to us but there was one more question and by the way it's going to be our coach. guys i know you are nervous he's a huge star among us and the huge amount of pressure you have to put me in eighty percent of the truth always will and will solo a great game the greatest good you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we
6:28 am

6:30 am
you very much for finding time for us thank you now i'm sure you are greatly disappointed by president terms decision to walk walk away from the j.c.b. zero eight but hopefully there is still some room for damage control how much of a do you believe can still be salvaged well i suppose you could call damage control there from the u.s. perspective no good outcomes here one possibility is that the the path that we're currently on the successful and that's that immediately after president trumps announcement president rouhani said ok we're going to stay in the deal for a little while and give time for the other participants mainly the three european countries to see what they can offer us to make it worth our while to stay in long term that could succeed it would be good from the perspective that it would keep her on the nuclear program under control and under inspection but it would leave the united states very isolated and europe for the.
