francois all around such as the outside or the attack on the charlie hebdo offices but if the vents like those last night continue to take place here in france then the same questions which were raised about whether mr holland was capable of providing french citizens with security will surely be aust of mr. parlous once again in the firing line bring us right up to date from the scene of the attack last night he said thank you. was just saying there france has indeed been seeing a wave of terror in recent years in which over two hundred people have been killed there have been major attacks like the one on the theater back in november twenty fifteen but also sporadic small scale incidents like the latest one on saturday night former british intelligence officer say it happened despite the wide ranging

powers of the french acuity services. there was a state of emergency was lifted but in fact the new incoming president that crone at the time then institutes is a number of the measures from the state emergency and law so the security services in france do indeed have wide ranging powers and. if you're willing to bet that whoever perpetrated this attack this time it's already on the radar either with the intelligence agencies or the very least with the local police for perhaps involvement in petty crime we've seen this person and that's time and time and time again in france particularly where people this seems to be an overlap between the criminality and the radicalization which leeson to carry out such attacks indonesia was also hit by ter attacks in the early hours of sunday morning three suspected suicide bombings targeted churches killing at least eleven people i mean during dozens more islamic state has claimed responsibility for the incident. took place

7:12 am
even follow that example ourselves one thing is clear though they won't be taking a leaf out of donald's art of the deal whole world trust the united states or enter a treaty or negotiate it treaty or a deal with the united states if one president has a plate another president in a gate on that deal he put american trust american credibility on the line and hear that america does not honor its word. calls from across the atlantic the latrell was on relenting and signed off on a new role in this ancient against around a new. that's predicted to hit european and u.s. business. has been lucky. so sanctions are back iran probably doesn't care much as had them in one shape or other for for decades washington

palestinian confrontational i'm expected lay cropped up of the euro vision song call and tell us to after israel's entry into this year's event on saturday after finishing her so called toy which was inspired by the auntie harvestman me to campaign neta invited everyone to jerusalem the women country hosts the following years your vision show the invite was echoed by israel's prime minister but with controversy surrounding true islam on its territory people on twitter have been speaking. how can your vision celebrate diversity and inclusion when steps away palestinians are getting shot in the head your vision is about to get very ugly absolute joke by the way let's not go to jerusalem until they stop murdering palestinian children israel is celebrating diversity through shooting unarmed protesters in gaza with snipers how will your vision be open for real diversity next year in jerusalem can all city residents celebrate equally unfollowing anyone
7:27 am
who says that and you're a vision in jerusalem next year yes yes it's just a music competition i'm sure all of the palestinian children that die in the next year will see the distinction. there was fury on condemnation in washington on wednesday gina the u.s. president's nominee to be the new director of the cia was there for a senate intelligence committee confirmation hearing it focused on her links to the agency's controversial interrogation program which is widely seen as a ruckus deal except. trump's really pushing gina haskell is the perfect candidate strong really strong smart tough and with thirty years of juicy behind her so why all the hate one highly respected nominee for cia director gina her support has come under fire
7:28 am
because she was too tough on terrorists tough and terrorists meaning she ran a secret cia detention center where she those under her reportedly tortured prisoners by the way the videotapes which allegedly documented some of the most horrific tortures were destroyed by the cia gina has committed a crime when she destroyed these tapes that crime at the very least is obstruction of justice the crime also is to classify a crime it's actually illegal in the united states to classify some. just because it's embarrassing or because it's a crime that's what she should be answering to why did she destroy the evidence now gina who apparently had no problem torturing tied up suspects is allegedly squeamish about the confirmation hearing well those tough questions in public do you believe the program in terms that you get interrogation program was consistent with american values we have decided to hold ourselves to
7:29 am
a stricter moral standard are they consistent with american values senator i believe very strongly in american values i want to trust that you have the moral compass that you said you have i have conducted myself honorably and in accordance with u.s. law do you believe that the previous interrogation techniques were immoral what i believe sitting here today is that i support the higher moral standard we have decided to hold ourselves to answer the question. and i think i've answered the question i have not but trump has a back don't tell me it doesn't work to what your works ok folks you know have these guys torture doesn't work believe me it works ok trump was applauded for that and many are of course against haskell. and for their troubles that targeted with these many respects.
7:30 am
the prospect of. the nominee making incriminating evidence on jena hasbrook secret so that the american people could see on t.v. that she was indeed the torture in chief. in thailand make it go to the close session that was too much and that's why i got up and i said that i said senator wyden is entitled to a direct to an honest answer on that question fortunately those resisting. we're seeing you know protesters in numerous places all across the country they're facing charges and they're facing you know felony counts often and getting little and be brutalized by the police certainly becoming more aggressive more certain and we need to put a stop to one hundred nine retired generals and admirals have urged the u.s. senate.
