the timing of this alleged strike was after the victory of the syrian troops. let alone the fact that we don't have chemical weapons anyway and let the other folks that we're not going to use it against old people because the but the new syria was about winning the heart of the civilians this is the main button and we want it so how can you use chemical weapons against civilians that you want them to have to be supportive to the second if you go to that area it was very clear and by armies by factions in by civilians we never use such armaments or weapons in that area are going to harm everyone something that didn't happen and if you go to that area and you ask this if there was no chemical attack me or anyone. word of it all is not according to what we have actually from the very beginning

most unreasoned syrians and foreigners being paid by the whist in order to topple the government this is the reality of the myriad of you the very stark reality everything else is just masks to cover the real intentions talking about the political differences moderate peaceful. we don't have civil war in syria if we had civil war for four seven years we should have been divided by now. even the sunni myself i have a long distant relative who. came to syria to fight against you to resist you because he was told that you were targeting you with killing sunnis why is it that so many people in all these different countries in america in russia these sunni's these muslims they believe that you are oppressing because the first thought of

when you thought i had interned internationally mainly in the with of course their plan was to create this rift within the society that we make things easier for them when you have such a civil war kind of civil war between thanks or if this city and they feel now the keep using the theme narrative at least to encourage some thread of the x. in different places in the world to come and defend their brothers. with regards to the united states relation to would you president trump has called you quote animal asset to have a nickname for the u.s. president. this is not my language so i cannot toothy miller language this is his language you to prevent him in the very. no in principle but what you

see is what you are three wanted to prevent or to if. you can watch that full interview with the syrian president throughout the day here on our at your own leisure as well online at r.t. dot com. so when you oughta official intelligence tool created by the university of southern california could potentially predict if a protest is going to turn violent by analyzing social media activity the program analyzed eighteen million twitter posts for moralize language during the twenty fifteen protests against police brutality in the u.s. city of baltimore turns out there was a correlation between the number of arrests and the use of this kind of language moralized tweets doubled just prior to violent protest. detected phrases evoking moral notions such as. fairness and loyalty here is an example of it in action

why does the opposition speak only bad black and black crime as a rebuttal to police brutality all murder all crime matches right. regardless of how anyone feels press to the police force in the family. in another study scientists polled around two hundred people on whether they condone the use of violence during the twenty seventeen classrooms in the us city of charlottesville that was over the removal of various confederate monuments they found that people were more likely to condone the use of violence if others shared their views. well futuristic grace scott believes violence or protests is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what artificial intelligence will eventually be able to predict. i think we're going to see more of this sort of predictive analytic behavior from ai in the future as ai develops so for example there is a new study that came out in front two years and schumann neuroscience that shows

that ai can predict behavior and traits just by looking at people dial ation and eye movements so what's happening is that date we have more data point cell from social media but also from just the fact that we're quantifying ourselves and quantifying our society we have more data points and so the ai will be able to use that that set of data those data points to predict our behaviors and that's really the key in the story is is will the machines of the future be able to predict our behaviors before we even know what we're thinking and i think the answer is yes all right still to come here on the program on america is being sued by iran well explained that you know might. apply to many plebs over the years so i know the game and so i got. the ball isn't

only about what happens on the beach or the funnel school it's about the passion from the families it's the age of the shape of money killed and spent each year to the twenty million like. it's an experience like nothing else on it because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful guy like great so we'll all chance with. and thinks it's going to take. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race is often spearing dramatic development only mostly resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk.

it is going to join us today an activist from the u.k.'s rightwing english defense league tommy robinson has been arrested for contempt of court however we cannot share any more details with the ongoing trial because of a so-called guy goaded by the u.k. government which prevents any reporting on the case there is a quick look at whether this could be tantamount to censorship. he may be surprised to see the media not covering something like the arrest of a prominent figure ten nothing more about him again or at least for a while and yes while sometimes outlets just lose interest altogether more often than not it's a gagging order the stops any country in its tracks gagging order is the best described as illegal order by calls on government restricting said information from being made public see the north koreans. were first introduced in the u.k. under the contempt of court nine hundred eighty one why well to make sure media

coverage publications all rampant speculation doesn't impede or skew the court's integrity when dealing with a case the same measure is applied to can't say any confidential corporate data being used is false name this occasion or just to protect the identity of victims all mine is involved but there's also another side to this measure many human rights advocates have been voicing concern that the said gagging order might be imposed when the government has a stake in this specific case like in two thousand and six when the shipping company truck. paid a local break to dispose of waste in only three cars and when eighty five thousand people sought medical help a journalist taking secret memos detailing what was actually dumped in the water but a super injunction was issued banning the publication of this information for the wiki leaks anyway prompting a parliamentary debate and legal action against as well the secret trial of the

london studio q.c. airing in major terror attacks back in twenty fifth the. teams acquitted of old sean it's been released nobody said anything about it. just remember speaking about it seems to be true for all intents and purposes began doing what it is so much to stop the truck see conspiracy in the press. what it cost her in moscow opec member iran is seeking support from the organization of petroleum exporting countries and getting the latest u.s. sanctions lifted but that's not the only way to iran is looking to protect itself in fact it's also suing washington for its involvement in terror attacks in iran last year citing don't hold trump as a key witness on t. correspondent has more now the crimes of the ice still terrorists have four or five people all over the world many people want justice to be served currently the islamic republic of iran is preparing

a legal case but against washington it's based on allegations that the usa was involved in the terrorist attacks in tehran in twenty seventeen which i still claimed responsibility for. that lawsuit might seem a little farfetched but they've got some pretty solid testimony here's the president of the united states on national t.v. isis is honoring. president obama he is the founder of isis he's the founder of rise i think will give hillary clinton the you know if you're a sports team most valuable player and v.p. you get the m.v.p.

award i says will hand her the most valuable player award her only competition is barack obama now perhaps this was just a figure of speech maybe he meant that washington's irresponsible foreign policy decisions had resulted in the terrorist group emerging it said the president with the founder of isis i know what you meant you meant that he created the vacuum he lost the p.r. bit he's the founder of guys as i do and there could be some more high level witnesses in a potential washington versus tehran case this is senator rand paul from kentucky had the president had his way or had hillary clinton had her way we may well have had isis in charge in damascus now because they've been arming and creating a safe haven for them as it is i think isis is more of a threat to us now because of the arming of the islamic rebels in syria iran is the lawsuit may actually come across as a counter claim that it was the u.s. that originally took iran to court for alleged involvement in the nine eleven attacks the coos decision is unacceptable and we reject it is not so new mockery of

the system of international law but also more clear to the american people especially the victims of the september eleventh attacks and the families now the nine eleven commission found no evidence of any iranian involvement in the attacks the report simply states that the hijackers had traveled to iran without having their passport stamped it's a pretty tough sell but the u.s. courts bought it now as for iran's case we'll have to see if trump's word is actually a guarantee for success to be fair if donald trump's word is enough there's certainly a lot of criminal cases that need to be reopened remember what he said about ted cruz's father his father was with lee harvey oswald prior to ours where he's being . you know shot at so with all these. strong word of allegations that donald trump likes to make maybe it's about time we get a disguise and a fake name and hide out in the witness protection program. r.t. new york. the u.s.

a pleasure having with us on this thirtieth thanks for sharing some your time with us here at r.t. international plenty more of the worldwide news headlines are coming your way in about half an hour. you never know what's around the corner i never was in the pub even the. excitement is that knowing that's where the adrenaline in much comes from. going to an extreme through all. the violence he's a punk and. a schizophrenia. we can do these things and behave badly. important people of course but before that all. goes well so for the last one.

hundred million infirmed. rule don't follow through thought. i would roll or where no piper you really beautiful don't going to get. the meaning in these music the thief you don't and the involved these come from the involvement. because the government would like to take the money i pay taxes and bomb people defenseless people overseas and spend trillions of dollars they then come back and they tax me again something called obamacare they tax me again to provide the health services that they say they're providing for people can't afford health care now here's my one simple question send the tens of thousands of dollars a year we pay to offset the government's inefficient bill it eats if they fill their requirement. why can't i write that off as

a charitable donation on my taxes. join me every focused on the elec simon chill and i'll be speaking to get us to the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. hello and welcome to worlds a part of the russians have long maintained that politics is a continuation of a kind of mix by other means and vice versa but many in europe dismissed that view

as to called the end not that the e.u. itself comes face to face but the bare knuckle approach of don't know trump is there still even the pretense of keeping money making and politics after a while to discuss that i'm now joined by pier aleutian former french secretary of state for foreign trade is to live i should say a great pleasure talking to you thank you very much for your time here recently gave an interview suggesting that europe needs to stand up to what you call your us legal imperialism the brussels need to make sure that washington respects said especially when it comes to the threat of terrorism sanctions isn't that's you legal too late to be asking for it now. terry if it is a different story terri is named to w t o and procedure deputy who was an organization built to reduce terror and you believe that we are trying to respect that procedure. you can you can raise terrorist and then we can go to w t o and sue

can just settlement procedures in w t o to handle terry feed into his does agreeable maybe to a retaliation and that's what people call trade wars what the west you with trumpets and styled you know it's like if you're nonces like you in the steven show in sr reality it's a new way of doing diplomacy if i may say so no real issue i mean it's unpleasant it's difficult but it can be have all. the central issues that worries me. the most in recent years in the u.s. approach. to international relations in general not just to trade is that they have begun to use the mystic legislation as a way to coerce. their economic advantages mr lewis you know you've been making that point. for quite some time and i think many in europe see

triumph as the only problem whereas you have specifically pointed out that the united states have been in applying its laws extra territorially for over forty years why do you think has it taken so long for the europeans to wake up to this practice because they're only starting to noticing it now when it affects them directly well forty years ago we reacted. when there was a gas pipeline issue and reagan try to stop us and stop germany in particular but europe to build this pipeline was russian soviet union at the time saying that it was a security risk to american national security. we stopped and we took legislation which made it a crime for penalties for french or european companies to accept american legislation and to accept being under american law and i think there was

a similar reaction to the hounds burton act right. so we used this so-called blocking statute in one thousand nine hundred six here again to start again this time on cuba on libya and iran. on cuba there was blocking legislation taken by mexico canada and the e.u. took. with a blocking statute not only that we went to the geo and opened a complaint against the u.s. and not only that we put together a list of american companies will be the target of mirror sanctions and believe it or not it's stop and we got an exemption and we traded with cuba all these years we didn't do that for iran and libya and that's why we have this problem today but back in ninety ninety five and you know later part of it in ninety six the station

was a little bit different because that act was pushed forth by the you republicans president bill clinton was against it he ended up signing a waiver against that law do you think you know the political composition actually compares baghdad and the american president wasn't so sad on you know implementing his vision if i put it politely. yes and no it's more complicated than that because the tendency to use american law is not just on sanction they go and say. the moment you start a business in the u.s. we're employing american citizens or use a dollar you have to comply with american law and what they do is they gather information through their intelligence. and then they drive. legal suit on companies that are targeted and sometime you end up with the

company's. collapse and the voyage which a two to a star in front which is a key energy company and i have been signaling this in the french parliament three years ago two years ago i think that we are dealing with this friend of the us using the internal law as. i call it wreck a deployment in the old days it was called gunboat diplomacy these things like it because each time they can use their legislation to promote the strategic or political interests all in the name of course well good cause fighting corruption fighting absolutely but i mean mr lish i think you're speaking. in a to the heart of. the difference between the e.u. and russia when it comes to the united states because the europeans still see donald trump as as the main problem whereas russians see the entire international

system is flawed because it allows one country the rights and the privileges of not just a one to lateral without an afrikaans ability and what i was going to ask not just one country say me the chinese are doing the same in their own way so the problem is that we see the system unraveling the chinese are doing their ways in america in their ways a problem is europe europe must be much stronger in making the decision it's not a question of whether the president agree or not agree with the waiver is at twenty eight can we around the table agree tough measures on these or china or the u.s. and there is unfortunately the answer to that so far is not really europe has been too weak and that's why we end up being beaten on the head sometimes by the chinese . sometimes the american and that's got to stop otherwise we're going to lose european voters psychology also comes into play here and to some extent it was

easier to accept that kind of system when it was represented by the charming smile of barack obama as opposed to you know being represented by the obvious rudeness of donald trump you're right you're right and what they of started in shown is that this is not does not date from from trump is sort of more extreme and spectacular and so on but you know serve been. dozens of companies that have been fined in europe in france in germany holland mostly european companies very few chinese. no indian. very few american targeting a european competitor and doing it in a systematic fashion as soon as they don't comply and so you get punished and that has to do with. banks insurance companies car companies twenty six billion dollars were taken out of european pockets and put in u.s.

treasury just in a series of of these of legal decision which show no really legal decision because at the same time zone no judgment i mean companies are not judge and. they are asked to confess going back to your idea of europe having to grow a spine this is essentially what you are calling for. his grow a spine this is essentially what you're calling for always is going to disappear it is very difficult to do that even on a minor issue but what we have or rather you have at stake right now is the access the european access to the american market we're talking about hundreds of billions of dollars is that is that really the worry be a starting point to sort of pick up the bottle with the united states now because. imagine we could see access to the u.s. in the european market would you sing would have they need the european money they need it badly we are the new thing it's really europe. look do you think it's

realistic for the u.s. to do as they do to us he i mean they may have price were they doing their legs or you think it's realistic not to react and it's also not very realistic because they haven't reacted for four years if we don't react if we don't react we're going to lose the battle for the hearts and minds of our voters tell me why people would believe in europe if we can see so much if any french company or european company asked to go to washington wizards lawyers a little hot and so on and go please can they do business can you tell me if i can do business here or there this is not acceptable on the point of view i am a goalies. i believe in the national sovereignty i believe that europe makes me stronger that's why i mean europe but if europe all going to sort of collective collapse because this is what's happening nobody is making decisions this moment we

are weak on many fronts and women. by the way. also for chinese companies or russian coburn is together in this kind of behavior by china and i have or by russia we need to react the same way. my discourse is not specific to the u.s. it's t's a weakness of europe but i think it's not only the european union that is suffering from kind of treatment by the united states i think there are lots of grievances in russia there are also grievances in china and as you mentioned before europe was able to put forth a blocking law it also did that in concert with other countries for example ninety five there was also the u.k. mexico canada that passed similar legislation what are the chances of putting together such a call this and at this point of time not just the european unity but the european

union joining forces with other countries who may be unhappy about the american practices. well. sol's m m you know i'm not i'm not in charge at the moment so i absolutely don't asking for i don't know what is going on in the in the corridors of the european council so i don't think we have the end of the story yet. clearly they have been meetings between the ministers they've been talking to the iranian they've been talking to russians i'm sure by then mccord discussed it with president putin in separate tells who we are to try and find a way and means to at least keep the agreement with iran together because it is important for strategic reasons so you do actually put your bags on the european union actually having some skill in the will to resist and you could have so because otherwise it's going to be very bad because the european union is now going

through several crisis at the same time if at the same time we're not able to tell the american you know you can't do this we need to be respected then the crisis in europe will continue to escalate and you can start worrying about the future of the organization i do the only way we are going to convince the voters next year we have a european election that this whole thing deserved a reprieve and i believe it deserves predicted but the only way you're going to convince people is it makes it's relevant right you can protect borders against migrants you can put take europe against american or chinese behavior you can have a policy that you russia and ukraine don't go really so yes you need to beef up what's supposed to be a european union mr lish we have to take a very short.
