every way that we can and i don't think it hurts the peace plan. the peace plan will be introduced to the appropriate time there was certainly not any criticism of any of israel's extreme use of force by anyone in the trumpet ministration hamas terrorist backed by iran have incited attacks against israeli security forces and infrastructure so israel is not responsible for shooting mostly peaceful palestinian protesters some of whom were just children shot down by their own soldiers but if you're a place israel with syria suddenly nikki haley's heart bleeds for the dead in far less clear cut situations. yesterday morning. we awoke to pictures to children being carried in the arms of desperate parents yes all the talk about human rights does not apply to palestinian protesters they do not get america's support because they're not protesting in the right country. big protests
6:31 am
in iran the people who finally gets in wise as to how the money and wealth is being stolen and squandered on terrorism looks like they will not take it any longer the u.s. is watching very closely for human rights violations with israel all bets are off on world press freedom day heather now it was all about championing the rights of journalists that is until somebody mention gaza we see all too often that journalists continue to take great risks to pursue this important work would you also condemn the recent deaths of journalists but also in the gaza strip look there are unfortunately a lot of journalists who die all around the world i'm not going to be able to list every single death of a journalist and we understand that israel has a right to defend itself back in april yasser move taja palestinian photo journalist who was wearing a jacket clearly marked press was shot by israeli sniper now if this was intentional it could possibly constitute a war crime by israel but heather nauert thinks it was self-defense either way she

6:33 am
now the e.u. energy chief also said brussels aims to maintain the growth of trade between european and iranian companies to ensure this but decided to trigger legislation that would allow e.u. firms to recover losses in code by u.s. sanctions on iran it has also instructed the european investment bank to facilitate you investment in iran. that takes a closer look at how e.u. u.s. relations are sorry. no arguing with it america and europe had something special a relationship unlike any other they did everything together condemned rogue regimes slapped naughty countries with sanctions even they wanted to get we have a very strong relationship with our friends and partners our friends in the u.s. administration we have a really great relationship blow through and life and this is this very special
6:34 am
relationship this is us almost too good to be true and it seems it was money trumps all now that america has unilaterally pulled out of the nuclear deal with iran it could start sanctioning european states companies that haven't the to do business with iran e.u. leaders merkel mckown others tried to change trump's mind with love. i. think you. except love has nothing on money europeans of facing american sanctions that's not very nice is it not something friends would do looking at the latest decisions of president. someone. like
6:35 am
that who needs enemies. europe has had enough they stand to lose cash because of america and they won't let that happen. don't put the work of as the european commission we have the duty to protect european companies so we knew me to act and this is why we're launching the process of activating the blocking statute from one thousand nine hundred six. but you're a busy. doing is using a statute initially developed to circumvent washington's trade embargo on cuba the law basically protects european states from laws or sanctions implemented outside of europe you can see a political resolution trumps bully boy tactics haven't gone down well in europe the block is finally showing its teeth. what do we want to be able to be blind

6:39 am
to do the dirty work of saying something publicly that they couldn't dare say and then using the right of freedom of speech in america the journalist can call for anything it wants murder execution bombing attacks on civilian bridges and so on so that's what this is and if we're talking about a new level yes we've hit a new low a new low outward call by a journalist so-called journalist for an attack on a civilian structure in time for a very short break we're back in just a moment. we
6:40 am
have to judge. leaders. so we need more objective but the reality is. to give them. their world view so this is where social media and direct communication comes in. it's sometimes called fake sometimes but it's sometimes a different world view. powerful people. so i couldn't be with us today africa has long promoted itself as a safari holiday destination catering not least to well off travellers through i
6:41 am

6:43 am
operating in the area to conclude that the officials who have been intimidated who have been arrested and beaten in the villages because they have tried to use their ancestral lands we also find that they have been violent addictions and these are all been carried out in the most rewarding the tourism or some of the noise and in the absence of wood it has led to widespread hunger managership and disease the kind of disposition that the priest you shills are going to not just be. forced out of their homes and lands with their messiah i mean full existence the head of one company probe thompson safaris a strongly denies being involved in the evictions it's direct over thompson as they also work with local communities on the government to improve access to water however activists on the ground they do tell a different story if i look for example what happened back in london six governments have mixed it to people from this hour and five times and yet the

customer lists but it was dell's lowlights of our nation and the world where the houses web aren't you know well the logical. talent to go. there was a little in the planning well. you know when you live in a place you. you have structure you have a little social service and now you a whole day just into the forests so if you ask me well i must say how black market place like don't let me out you when you've been there all. of us a special forces soldier has subjected himself to waterboarding to try and show that it is not a form of torture tim candidate posted a facebook video of being mocked drowned and then explained his main reason for doing it magically having attained if does this look like torture to you guys it doesn't look like torture to me either the reason we're doing this at a base. hero is readied for our that's been appointed to be the director the cia
6:45 am
but i'm kind of stunned isn't proving convincing to everyone has some of the online reaction if waterboarding wasn't torture then the be no reason to do it. i was a navy pilot and went to the e.r. in one thousand eighty one waterboarding each store sure waterboarding is not torture it's just the process replicating the sensation of being drowned to inflict physical and psychological pain in a prisoner in order to extract information so yet totally different from torture and waterboarding is an interrogation technique that has been used by the cia many human rights groups around the united nations say it amounts to torture and can cause serious health consequences like a brain and lung damage and even death the new cia director mentioned in tim kennedy's video has been widely criticized for her involvement in enhanced
6:46 am
interrogation techniques which includes waterboarding she was also being accused of destroying video evidence of the torture of terror suspects we discussed waterboarding video with former guantanamo bay detainee more bank he says such practices do amount of torture no matter what one soldier might say and many people can withstand different types of shorter for example why though it might be. the pain of having his own twisted fingernail pulled out to others who are caught but it's not based on the individual's ability to be able to take that torture or not it's according to the definition of the law it's a national interest in just recently the two people captured by the syrian defense forces. who are alleged to be water. what. is here the americans are saying these two individuals have committed war crimes is
6:47 am
complete hypocrisy in its country and it opposes more importantly international law which which was torture completely said is that not only physical torture. so it's psychological the use or to force confessions out of. this is art international thanks for joining us for the weekly much more to offer you at the top of the hour. seventy four design submissions say. seven thousand pilings. to join judges. and eight hundred sixty nonstop days of work. a russian w.b. a champion of it. and a russian mob stuff. show you how and why the crimean bridge was built.
6:48 am
witnessed the construction of a you need to transport artery that will help out of crimea the faster most of those you know what go for more familiar with it a bit but it's clear. when lawmakers manufacture consent to instant of public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the financial merry go round lifts only the one percent told. to ignore middle of the room signals. going to the real news is. the world.

something i stop ok that is a strong us them off so they better not start the. purities a stronger as riskier reste so they park on my shelf at least get it on the shady doll if it were your funeral not i'm a party c.p.a. i've said this is your particular keep our. own keys that are dead. or fashion across your. there's a. still decision. if you know the city. and what's a privatisation officially it's not the commission's policia state however it's
6:52 am
true if you look at the troika it's and if you look at the memorandum of understanding between for example the troika and portugal the commission as part of the troika is asking too for the private size across the book to go so in the troika the commission is still pushing for privatization so if it is really a human right and if you really are serious to the citizens at today's initiative we should start acting on policies instead of celebration. thank. seniority this although i wish was sitting. mostly with. your. sympathy. for us as you watch it because fundamental mean. that i compose.
6:53 am
each could have. told us but if it is a song you could if you're. concerned about the pressure being put on southern countries european water movement activists ropes to read. the highlights of the european commission as part of the troika so to force southern european countries mainly greece and portugal to privatized was that. they say that is unacceptable and must stop. a few months later the commission's reply leaves everyone speechless. the commission believes that the privatization of public utilities including water supply firms. can deliver benefits to society when carefully made.
6:54 am
to death up you it's a source of his future it's in bunches plus as they come to duff it to cosign creedal. such a nice best son i consume of accepted going to see best fit it was something i don't. know so did some enormous ego comic every nothing yeah if it's out of the depth of a thought if i thought that the id goes a little botany see need to shift to be all no gosh but it could be open and not by deed to disk you sure could get into disuse your bridge you know that. is a week's pay minimum opinion to center six pm device you can you could just go if you will secretly dig out keep. the assume i did. not look at dog ac yourself these dual result was that he's gone and
6:55 am
a very serious one. when the troika came to ireland they wanted to privatized the water utility. but there was no water utility. the water was sprayed in twenty seven local authorities so they were told or government by the troika to build. the i was government. a company called irish water. which began installing meters. side to people's homes. on divorce protests took place. isn't that a sketch of the city of clock loreal woman went out in the morning and said you are not putting up be the outside my house. the children there are meant to be
6:56 am
a station we didn't want the water meters and that was us. what even an hour or two there was a mass of supportive people here to stop them. and this was the first time that the irish people had taken a stand on any issue since austerity had begun says the troika ride to toes in the not. because. i thought it was. i think for some people it probably was the straw that broke the camel's back. and no one of a sudden move in the street together. and people who are joining the docks and you know what has the water meters got to do. with the fact that you can't see a doctor should go to a hospital what have the water meters got to do with the banks from the intake and people so this. you know this is
6:57 am
a sewer phone a little bit of power you can't go and funk to cheika but you can stand to thank your folks. and there's your polar and and it might be true years and we're still not finished but people are still resisting this because it is the one thing that they have power and they're never going to get into. this thing and we knew that this is big something different is how. it's about water forced to foremost but it's also about much more than war it's about to hurt to be trailed the surrender of sovereignty and the redistribution of our west operatives and their debt downwards.
6:58 am
there is a problem with the leaks and we couldn't find them until we have brought in some measures so if i see my solution and certainly it says it's a million liters a month for a couple of days in my house i go back home to trade so that's the reason for the missiles. and islands there were no meters because they had a completely different system of water charges. the irish paid through general taxation. over one billion euro was intended for the maintenance and operation of the water system. some people think those paper water through taxation is a little bit crazy we really only country in the o.e.c.d. . it has zero war poverty and we're the only one with the a lot of poverty because we're the only one that pays for a trip through us general taxation that's the one thing we got right and we'll keep
6:59 am
it and the rest you should look at for follow us listen to us because the dumb irish got this one right. we really need to modernize our russia structure so now we really have to invest. so we need a structure to invest we need to wage borrowed money and then we need a way to pay for it paying out a general type stations people who work would probably end up paying more tax. we are losing forty seven percent of our treated water into the ground in leaks before it gets to the top. no billion new up to spent do i choose to spend it on meters or do i choose to spend not billion euro in fixing the leaks and building a new one for structure. despite the water having been paid through general taxation. no tax exemptions were plans to offset the new charges.
7:00 am
against. the threat of paying for water twice. the introduction of meters and charges as another austerity measure and the establishment of irish water was the first step towards privatisation. mr ferguson was the minister tusk by the government was setting up the new company . quite as we expected. it was never from my perspective could would or should ever be sold or privatized i was discussing this matter with officials at the time. legislation would have to include very point four. hundred.
