hence have been putting a lot of pressure on countries to sign up and approve this move although there is a lot of resistance internationally to it we have seen the us ambassador to the united nations making heavy resorting to duty tactics and writing a threatening letter do you consider the vote i want you to know the president and the u.s. take this vote personally he will be watching this vote carefully and has requested our report back on those who voted against us thank you for your consideration and more more questions are being asked if the common file and said we witnessing is a response to the embassy me just how exactly does the american president try to think that he is going to cut as he has said the deal of the century between israelis and palestinians the israeli military has defended its use of live fire on the border and a spokesman for the i.d.f. blamed hamas which controls gaza. our message to the hamas is clear we will not tolerate this violence we will continue to defend all seventy our civilians on our

border we will do so while trying to minimize the amount of casualties but we will not let the rioters through and to harm israeli civilians that are a running distance away white house spokesman echoed the view of the israeli government saying only one party is to blame in the deadly unrest but the death toll is over this city and gaza you must call him on your restraint. as well we believe that you know hamas is responsible for mass is the one that frankly bear responsibility hamas is responsible hamas is responsible hamas bears the responsibility the hamas as an organization is engaged in cynical action is leaning these deaths we asked our guests of for their views on the shock waves caused by the u.s. stance on jerusalem. it's a glorious day of course we are happy by the liberation and the embassy but we are counting not only on these events by all our bottom history

fifty five palestinians were murdered by the israeli occupation and occupation that is protected by this american administration administration today we saw a celebration of mythology and political zealous theon and and religious fanaticism over politics and international law and you have israel and iran. and iraq hostilities you have the situation in syria heating up between israel and russia you have this incredibly. provocative gesture by the americans and i think the system there is cracking wide open already here in israel some people around us want us to expose korans to those who declare that they want to kill us who declare that they want to get into israel by movie by clutching

called by it are you fools who are that they're just you know at the regional high limit our other one is not exactly on. the nerdier under some years later and that has only to for for eleven years you're the one who initiated this you initiate this you thought you know well your start up always what policy is brought to the way you tell where you have anything resides raising children and how it is you know a lot of and not anything if you define greater israel as the area between the river jordan of the mediterranean sea the area under effective israeli control jews are now a small minority and that poppy. and the more of a minority they become the more undemocratic. and racist israel

becomes there are zero israeli injuries zero israeli casualties over two thousand palestinians injured over fifty seven palestinians killed including al i'll show you how magic. what do all of these protests. all of these are guys that were happening on gazans inside the area occupied by israel in one nine hundred sixty seven israel use disproportionate force in an illegal manner that invited the condemnation of all the human rights organizations that have any semblance of respect for international law including israeli human rights organizations like you have thousands of people protesting inside there the seed occupied territory and they are being mowed down by an occupation army that is still considered under the law as an occupation army

killing scores of powers and ends and wounding thousands literally thousands more but you know hamas is not my favorite organization. so you know hamas is a politically bankrupt group which has completely failed to exploit israel's gross gross contradictions and to use them against the this increasingly race a state where the hamas has failed consistently by attacking. jews qua jews and therefore forcing making sure that israelis will band together all the more tightly against what they see as an external for. i have something to tell you we want to stop the policy and state in the future why not for the first time a missionary there would be

a palestinian state but not in an obvious stop so i said i'm talking about palestine you have. enough you know part of jerusalem would be. capital for a fake story and we will accept your handouts are the two state solution is the international solution it's not the palestinian solution alone i do believe still that there is a chance for this solution but it will take courage and it will take resolve from the international community to step up the decision to move the u.s. embassy to jerusalem has made donald trump highly popular in israel and the country has been quick to show its appreciation want to create peace between israel and the palestinians.

and. the. u.s. special forces soldier has subjected himself to waterboarding tim kennedy posted a facebook video of being market drowned and then explained his reason for doing it magically having it changed if this is look like torture to you guys it doesn't look like torture to be either the reason we're doing this at a base. hero is readied for our that's been deployed to the dregs of the cia. waterboarding is an interrogation technique that has been used by the cia many human rights groups and the united nations say it amounts to torture it can cause

serious health consequences like brain and lung damage or even death the acting cia director mentioned in tim kennedy's video has been widely criticized after allegations of her involvement and enhanced interrogation techniques which include waterboarding what is more president trump who chose a hassle for the job has often said that torture works we discussed the waterboarding video with former guantanamo detainee was a big. many people can withstand different types of georgia for example i know it might be the pain of having his own twisted or having the brain in the hold out compared to others who can't but it's not based on the individual's ability to be able to take that torture all that it's according to the definition of the law intellectual interest in just recently the two people captured by the syrian defense forces who are alleged to be what to look at what. american

captives for isis also water on it that. they have to so if the americans are saying that these two individuals that have committed war crimes which include what or so this kind of notion of it isn't torture it's only torture when we say it is when it affects us it's complete hypocrisy it's complete and it opposes more importantly international law which which outlaws torture completely i said is that not only physical torture for those so it's psychological but the use ought to force confessions out of the. authorities in the indonesian city of sora by a say a family of five was responsible for youth suicide bombing at a police headquarters on monday and surveillance camera captured the moment of the blast in which six civilians and four officers were wounded police say an eight year old daughter of the perpetrator survived this happened one day after another family carried out suicide bombings at three churches in surrey thirteen people

were killed and dozens more injured islamic state has taken responsibility for those attacks and so far no one has claimed the latest explosion the director of the u.s. code child and family research center told us the involvement of young people in such atrocities is alarming. it's a possibility that could be replicated in other countries i mean obviously it is very very disturbing and very upsetting and very disconcerting that this is happening that you're familiar and young children involved in attacks. but as you know having to not the issue of child soldiers not something new unfortunately in civic society it's only that have been literate the one thing we do know that is a deterrent is the whole issue of conversation and we need to have conversations to understand better why it is that people feel there are so driven by that they have been radicalized or for whatever reason they feel there are soldiers and within families you know and in some cases it may be that children are not willing members

in these attacks but we need to understand more about what's going on that is extremely urgent. is she a cleric with strong anti-american views is on course to become the most powerful figure in iraqi politics i'll solders that coalition has won the largest number of votes in the parliamentary election its most ballots now counted on tough has the latest from baghdad. there's also that we have up until now i suggest that. who is a prominent shia cleric in iraq seems to be the frontrunner this however does not mean that mr. has full control and cannot guarantee to choose iraq's that's because according to their work a lot in the next ninety days following their results. political blocs have to establish a parliamentary majority to push for whoever they think should be prime minister whether it is. for his hardline stance against u.s. and u.s.

presence in iraq or whether organization had. key command in the popular. time and again called the called the u.s. presence in your walk on justified you find that the ultimate result is that the u.s. influence in iraq has altered the. middle east expert. told us the election result could have a major impact on iraqi relations with the u.s. . the son and his movement and since two thousand and three they opposed the iraq he could patients or there's a sense among the iraqis specially also among the suburbs of the song that a lot of conflict the recent coping in iraq including the eyes of a storm was costly due to the u.s. a few years ago abrasion and us dollars for storage for such extremes group so against the influence of the presence of u.s. troops and and advisors and so on within iraq because it think they are part of the problem rather than

a solution there might be some sort of conflict or disagreement between big new government and the united states on what and how the united states can keep some sort of present within iraq and so on so the u.s. will have much more difficult times ahead dealing with this becoming government than with a body in a modicum before. the head of the u.n. atomic watchdog has said iran is complying with its obligations under the two thousand and fifteen nuclear agreement he met with president putin in sochi in southern russia are you going to run off reports. well despite this summit having very little to do with the spread of nuclear weapons meeting with the head of the international atomic energy agency has been at the very top of lattimer putin's agenda now to basically discussed how the run nuclear deal would be fairing from now on with the united states and de facto ditching the whole deal last week now

russia's permanent representative at the a was at the meeting and he said that basically agency's director general has one sick and reiterated that iran is being fully compliant with the deal but you know the director of the atomic energy agency has confirmed iran is complying with its obligations under the nuclear deal now iran's foreign minister is also in russia but he's in most school meeting with his russian counterpart sergei lavrov iran's foreign minister is on sort of a tour he's a meeting with the representatives of the countries who are still in the deal and that of course everybody except the united states divides a reef seeking surance is from those countries that they are still in the deal that they will protect iran's interests even with the u.s. pullout he said that basically the u.s. decision to abandon the deal has knocked it out of balance now europe in turn is

also scrambling to keep the deal a life but that comes with a catch because the united states have indicated that they are prepared to sanction europe into obedience pretty much openly threatening those european companies that keep doing business with iran with penalties is the u.s. going to impose sanctions on european companies that continue to do business with iran the answer is it's possible it depends on the conduct of other governments and just a quick reminder twenty fifteen when these storage deal was reached a lot of european companies entered the iranian business scene this includes some side. era but still. and now the united states are basically saying well you have to make a choice and france has already said that it will not allow washington to boss its companies around like that is what we want to be bustles that wouldn't be blindly to what americans tell them or do we want us europeans the same economic interests

and we want to have economic relations with iran now another is you raised in the talks between vladimir putin and the director general of the i.a.e.a. is the potential denuclearization of north korea and so i asked the russian permanent representative at the agency whether or not the iran example could hamper the negotiations and the efforts with pyongyang. america's decision to pull out of the nuclear deal wasn't discussed during this meeting so but there are concerns that it could verse we affect efforts to stabilize the situation on the korean peninsula. has stressed that russia will be seeking for denuclearization of north korea and north korea in its own turn has also indicated that it could be ready to move in that direction but as we know the deal with iran two years to reach still with north korea we could be in for a long run. the british domestic intelligence chief has accused russia of trying to

undermine it demo the market excuse me by marketing across europe and parker gave a speech in berlin where living in a period where europe faces sustained threats and sustained hostile activity from certain states the chief protagonist amongst these hostile today is the russian government instead of becoming a respected great nation. it risks becoming a more isolated pariah. or much of andrew parker speech was devoted to the scream paul poisoning the british government earlier claimed the whole world is sure that russia was behind the attack although as you can see on the map the countries that have taken that view and expelled russian diplomats are not the entire world and according to political analyst tara mccormick the u.k. position does not even have the full support of europe in time so the isolation

comment i don't think. so straightforward really has within your quite a wide spectrum within the you have parts wide spectrum of opinion about how to i say quote unquote deal as it would be presented in european made it out to deal with russia you know so we have it ranging from a much more friendly government that sets its greece all straight for example which is taken a founding you throw stones at that and i know you know we want to do it still it saves it but i look him in germany and it was a huge amount to just buy it in germany following the expulsion of the flow and it didn't come out that i mean expelled you know with a significant number. of politicians left in light of king that this is the way you know their relations should not be between russia and germany for example.

and that does it for mailbag of the top of the hour with more news stay with us this is art international. the photo. we're here on. post some officials do not. fully understand or do not fully accept the principle of football being beyond politics and that's a fundamental principle of growth of the world to book. people were granted some

people may have opinions but it's their own opinions and doesn't influence opinions of the many other full families who are among tickets every day in large volumes. pad and the politics in washington not been driven by the fossil fuel energy lobbyist they could have gone into renewables ten twenty years earlier and those jobs would be in place generating good paying jobs in america would be part of a growing world beating industry but because they kowtow to those lobbyists they got stuck in the coal business which up liberated by the gas business which is a trillion dodgy and for a lot of reasons and now it's going to be obliterated by the chinese led revolution in solar.

this is boom bust broadcasting around the world from washington d.c. i'm bart. coming up today the c.e.o. of the lisa money thomas joins us from london to talk crypto and what makes money successful plus alex my pile of h. gives us an update on an impending deadline that's later this week related to the north american free trade agreement and she's back the car coach lauren fix and the new president of the north american cars trucks and utilities the word of the year show host worked through a cavalcade of hard news all that ahead you know looking at our rearview mirrors earth we get to some of the. big news in the united states supreme to the united states supreme court has overturned the federal law that effectively bans most sports betting in the states the law the professional and amateur sports protection act of one nine hundred ninety two also known as the bradley act for prime sponsor

former senator bill bradley who was a member of the new york knickerbockers back in the day it fell under the weight of a third challenge that was affectively instigated by the state of new jersey which is hoping legal sports betting can revive their faltering casino industry major u.s. sports leagues had sued the state of new jersey twice before on these issues successfully citing the bradley act as a bar to the state's efforts to legalize sports betting in this round though the justices found six to three that the bradley acts effect a bar to legalisation of sports betting in states where it was not yet allowed is an unconstitutional comma dearing of state resources joining us to dig a little bit deeper is r t steve christakis steve thank you for joining us what do you make of this it's a pretty interesting decision i don't think people expected it yeah i mean with the brother being overturned today it was a law created back in ninety two as you said. for bed state authorized sports

gambling with some exceptions being the main one where you were that was the only state where you were allowed to bet on as the result of a single game a wager results on the results of a single game besides organ delaware and montana as well as the other three states that were exempt this basically means that individual states now are going to decide whether or not to legalize sports gambling and a lot of them are hoping to solve their budget problems because of all the revenue it's going to bring bring in to the state and a research firm actually stated that within five years they expect thirty two states to legalize sports well my gosh well i mean the states have had so many budget problems in part because the federal government hasn't been giving as much back to the states and we see it with the lotteries which aren't i guess quote unquote gambling but when you look at which states are sort of the states are poised to have the biggest economic and business impact from this over turning the bradley law which states are those well we had six states already have that have it

in acted legislature legislation for once this ban was lifted were well for when it will be lifted new jersey was the main one in new york connecticut west virginia pennsylvania and mississippi i think those states are going to benefit the most at first and then more to come obviously new jersey has spent millions of dollars and years fighting to legalize sports gambling so mainly from their atlantic city casinos you know they're hoping it will revive that they can add sports going to gambling to their already gambling casinos. and it also is said to bring in an estimated twenty six billion u.s. gross domestic profit and one hundred fifty two thousand new jobs will take all the jobs we can get and so the states that are already up and running like new jersey connecticut at mohegan sun new york those states are standing a profit but everybody else will get into the act steve thank you so much really appreciate you being here expert. and on the trade front u.s.

president donald trump took to twitter to defend jobs lost in china not to china but in china on sunday mr trump tweeted president g. and i were working to help the second largest chinese electronics companies e.t.e. get back in business fast last month the u.s. commerce department barred z.t. ease access to u.s. suppliers over alleged violation of sanctions against iran and north korea leaving the smartphone maker to put a halt to major operating activities mr trump mimicking larry the cable guy tweeted that he had ordered his commerce department to get it done get er done which presumably means the administration will rescind the z t e export ban mr trump seems eager to ease trade tensions with china after months of provocations especially in the context of his upcoming summit with north korean leader kim jong kim has been meeting regularly with chinese the chinese a key allies ahead of the summit a bipartisan chorus of critics including former g.o.p.

and as we were wont to do we get to talk about kryptos today and this time as they used to say on money python just google it guys for something completely different on kryptos in that vein we head to london where we're joined by thomas hoffman the c.e.o. of conies is limited thomas thanks for joining us you've got a lot of great experience and an investment funds in the best the funds arena specifically in gold and i was really intrigued to learn about kony cis which is a crypto based upon gold for years i've been saying that for a long term a crypto should be based upon something real you can touch and feel and you're one of them out there tell us about can. sure so what we've done it in a service with developed a fair and honest monetary system actually which is designed to be efficient secure and rewarding for the benefit of war both individually and collectively. it's

a system that revolves around movement hence the name can a service so what we've tried to do is actually still stimulate the velocity of money to actually serve what money is supposed to serve which is the commerce of the world and the best way to do that we really looked at what makes money successful and what makes money successful is it being a secure store of value so the best store of value that the world of a sane is actually a goal we also have silver currencies as well there are primary currencies. but also an efficient medium of exchange so that's what we've done through the block and through other infrastructure interfacing into the banking systems and debit cards and that sort of thing but also we've added this third dimension which is the rewarding element and we reward people who participate in the system both individually but also collectively so individuals are rewarded and businesses are rewarded through their performance in the system but also everyone is rewarded

through the collective success of the system is world to promote people working together and to promote the overall i guess economic growth of the system let me ask you thomas so if you're essentially think can ethers will serve as a stable coin for those of us or follow that the crypto space tether is sort of one of the stable coins out there although there are some potential pitfalls with that but who will use in in addition to just individual investors who will use conies this as sort of a stable coin and for what purpose will they use it. well ultimately anyone can use or but i mean it serves commerce it serves businesses very well in fact it actually a main draws it. provides a whole new revenue line for businesses effectively so yes we are a stable coin where you know one for one backed by gold or silver initially but

when i say backed it's actually it's divisible allocated tonsil of gold and silver so how do you know there is. a thomas how do you keep that balance between the actual price of gold yannick a nice token will will ultimately the the at the money in the system the monetary buys is it's increased or decreased by sickly through demand and supply and they cannot be more money than in the system than what there is gold and you know the cross will be balanced just simply through the fact that well it's ultimately the gold cross and if that dislocates from other of the gold markets around the world then you know arbitrage exists an arbitrage traders can come in and and utilize those process and differentials so i mean where you have. i.
