4:01 am
he could tell you about you know how did you manage to escape. ridea help of a government with the help of would be relaxed released just. yank wittingly thank goodness thanks very much like. he was a principal right. and so. we're now actually fifty meters away from afghan border and my mobiles know. that if we geisha and welcome to afghanistan. the commander of the local pakistani border troops greets people on their way home from afghanistan. when in two thousand and fourteen the pakistani army started the operation to liberate was your stand from terrorists locals thought life would be safer across the border in afghanistan.
4:02 am
why he had to go. in while they've been away the border that they know so well and have crossed so often in their lifetimes has changed a lot. we can even. now. for example. ok now you can see in. what's really. well then. we can see even if i go yeah. so now you can spot even the gold movements yes.
4:03 am
the camera fits go to the border forts built in strategic high ground along the border some of them enjoy excellent views you can even see afghan villages on the other side of these these village isn't safe. are you sure there is no. sort of lot of them. because no one knows for sure what's happening on the admin side of the border everyone coming from there has to undergo a thorough check. the border guards need to be certain that the fair dealing with a genial and local resident and not say a tele been militant in disguise it's not easy to tell the difference by appearance solo. or.
4:04 am
after three years of conflict it has been estimated that out of a population of twenty seven point four million twenty two point two million people in yemen are in need of humanitarian assistance so why are the u.s. and u.k. so committed to the saudi war. but here is something i have somebody who can buy it is something. i didn't like espouse food home. yes. yes. yes. i think. there. were for me.
4:05 am
to stand. there. was. this children's home like many other facilities that we saw and was done functions under the direct supervision of the pakistani army it's clear that we've been brought here this is a model children's home perhaps even one of the best in the country but the main even the unique thing about this place is entirely different to. what is your parents. so we're just going to. follow them i don't. have any brothers or sisters he by and then he says. to this is.
4:06 am
what's with all the. rain my dad. did this your mother and your. teacher we have we have ten rooms for the children. along with six children. so that we are comfortable there my. mother you know when there is a meeting. so the children of mothers only. know. what's your name funny as do you have your own children oh yes he said like where we are and but have you ever you personal as a mother have you ever imagine yourself being a position of do women who give their kids. or pushes right this is a yes how do you feel as a shuttle just
4:07 am
a model that. when this is. good to be valuable did you see from that that the thought of me out of it will have ended up which i missed the very last question i've gotten for your stress this is when my kids do this. so you know so far this was. so so far this was the hardest part because. we get used to when we see our french we are keeping the mind probably this this is the last all of their parents but it's not the same for that particular orpen just because of. because of the poverty of the
4:08 am
area some mothers proof or prefer to give some of their. children to today kind of our pensions. they say they can visit them for example. once a month. but still these kids have these kids have a mother it's customary for a woman who loses her house. to marry his brother when that happens her children are often seen as a burden they are extremists to feed this boys have similar stories they all lost their fathers and when their mothers found a new family they were simply packed off to an orphanage. eighth. inch yet because they. were fifteen this would make them understand how to source
4:09 am
seed and how it grows or. form. where you are you want to become. that. you do good you want to do with this is. this is a replica terraced house where we were shown how just like the army does now the militants also cared about education for kids but in a very different way. this is if you die room this is the room where the terrorists were training the suicide bombers let's get inside. so everything is decorated as it is already and have and this is like what you go in to see when you commit suicide bomb. interesting think people have big beautiful ladies here but you can mention the pictures of the lady with covered face actually and all
4:10 am
over stuff all other stuff like these decorations fake flour words you know you know terrorists messed everything like they were trying to put into the mind of the young person you go in kill infidels go and commit suicide bomb and then that will be they haven't worry you will find yourself after death. oh. woman and man across the border separately. it looks like looks like i might be able to see some latest it's a very rare. very rare opportunity for us because you know we when there is such a to do this is this out of there. we see i would go. yeah. i used to be just sir. when was the last time she had
4:11 am
a conversation with a man out of the family. if it was still ok so i'm against it is not. going to do not mix up. after that question the converse sation turned off work it was good to know the soldiers had our backs but other circumstances an interview like this could have meant serious trouble. women in waziristan were does empowered even before the spread of radical islam and their status hasn't improved much through the taliban were defeated but the man we spoke to on this border all hope that after returning home everything will be different better than before. and they're going to let my speech sound so unusual to them but you can see they are trying to to hear it as this much as they as they can but you may find. that.
4:12 am
kids from families that have passed the checks and left the camp can that would tend to reopen schools some of them have been built right inside military garrisons the route also dormitories for students who have to come from more remote villages . we arrive at one such dormitory late at night. it's mostly teenagers who are least. here two to each room with a metal door that's bolted from the outside. occasionally there a black house just one of the representation so for. what would you normally do when you have a blackout i would you if you say oh yes you have a phone no i don't have you you're not allowed to have no oh really. most of these . so. when was the last
4:13 am
time you went. on the internet. no i'm not used to it never no never you know you don't we do want to know how does it work yes. i mean. for example if you would get an access to the internet what would you when jasc there. and veges there were. some that. some of them even after passing all the border checks the people who are we touring to which you can go home straightaway first brought here.
4:14 am
it's now we're moving forward to this is a temporary camp. through these. fans to give. these. refugees will have a short stop to get refreshment straight it's then move on to their houses. the resettlement camp was built and is guarded by the military. they maintain that no one is still to here against their will. the barbed wire and our men in comfort fatigues are only there to protect the inmates themselves. did you have any a any occasions of someone from the outside world with trying to are you know going to feel you're out of work primarily because we have the future to secure. for that but we're going to defense of security for their debate morning nobody had ever
4:15 am
dared to come and make anything wrong and defend. this camp has one important purpose above all others it plays the role of a giant filtration system that everyone wanting to return to his wrist must go through an old man came out to us from one of the towns after seen several soldiers he mediately reached for his id there's no militant connections detected this is the first time that you have such identification card in your life. you know that none of. their students who are accustomed to ancient tribal ways i.d.'s are a new concept. many still see themselves the sport of tribe not a speck he said as citizens and many see their own army as outsiders.
4:16 am
partly. by means of. the things you guys are pretty good at that i need to give. as a computer program the county seat is measured. by and that was my intent was to be a good. thing when the taliban were. here at. was it was time was the life for you personally was good or bad no would you tell it. was you know one of the taliban who did it because by mean i'm sure i could be poor the i don't want. to terrible but i thought my gosh out of the never thought of when you see so there's yes but i'm not worthy of a need taliban fighters in his village however. if there were clashes a new tell it stand why you had to leave your house. you know when i could only.
4:17 am
get there. because of the you know who was shelling novelty of the other that was the age of miracles that. i think. that i go i'm not sure that. we were already heading for the cricket ground were and match was well underway when we were given the chance to talk to another local woman. has faced down spent. half of people looking at. how many kids she has. a school i don't think it. said i what it was that i could hear the. practical that you know now i want to you know they could mention that i thought what it was that you did i was not written as i'm going to definitely is. not the lord of the world.
4:18 am
the cricket match is the last part of our film it also marked the end of our visit prepared by the military who never did get to see how people leave the camp and go back to their homes. that they still have to. their native. time being not even the traditional. start until a man income stands in the middle of the circle.
4:19 am
4:20 am
that sort of sci. fi day seven of the fifa world cup has wrapped up in russia the final whistle has been blown and cazan in the last game of the day with spain topped iran one nil. also on wednesday saudi arabia and morocco are the first teams to be eliminated from the tournament after falling to ottawa and portugal respectively. to get all
4:21 am
of the latest world cup updates and other global news at our t.v. dot com right now the kaiser report is next on our team international but in the u.k. and ireland to get ready for the bust. because or this is the cuz a reporter or. bars no holds holds or no board. oh well you seem to have lost your mind but you know what so as the us in general so maybe it's you've been spending too much time there i have a headline here from c.n.n. that we haven't been able to cover while we've been here because you know we've had this stuff but i love this headline as well peter navarro says there's a special place in hell for justin trudeau that is our chief trade negotiator for
4:22 am
john so it's quite interesting to call an ally there's a special place in hell for him and i don't know if that was because of his eyebrow falling down of space but peter navarro has apologized for this but i'm not sure what the big problem is with the canadians i mean we get the maple syrup and we get the hockey players and they get the tar sands tell you what stop sending tar sands to america. because it's extremely dangerous for people so i think justin trudeau did some sort of special tar sands deal just recently as well but nobody pays attention to them because trump is everything right but that's what everybody's paying attention to but i want to turn to another story that i promised we would cover the last episode i said we were covering this and this is finally. frets about share buybacks quote torrent of corporate training dominating the market and short term financial engineering right after the company tells the market the stock is cheap executives overwhelmingly decide to sell that's the headline and this is
4:23 am
from wall street dot com but he's talking about an s. study and they find that basically all these companies are doing is they announce that they're going to do a share buyback that stuff. soring and you know what happens the insiders dump all their shares five fold increase from the week before they'll start dumping their shares and they some of them don't even do the share buybacks because they don't have to pay all they are interested in is cashing out so it's. market manipulation stock market manipulation by insiders and abetted by regulators like the f.c.c. all the f.c.c. is doing here is. a look up on urban dictionary what that means all they're trying to do is cover their tracks so that when the lawsuits happen they can say oh we were aware of it we warned against it we're on top of it but they are aiding and abetting the regulators or capture the regulators or venal the regulators get payoffs ok they get money from these guys and then they go or they in the form of.
4:24 am
government they get a job in the private sector and they get the big payoff it's it's it's highly. corrupt is that like we've been saying for years and they're taking it all private and what's left is new feudalism tar sands so they and now it's a share buyback to happen and the study found of these like three hundred eighty five companies that they looked at that had announced share buybacks they found abnormal returns those thirty days afterward that's when they keep the executive start selling their shares so in fact twice as many companies have insider selling in the days after a buyback announcements on an ordinary day so right after the company tells the market that the stock is cheap executives overwhelmingly decide to sell explained f.c.c. commissioner robert jackson jr appointed by president champ and sworn in earlier this year they tell the market our share price is so cheap that we think the best
4:25 am
use of our money is to buy back those shares because they're so cheap well then the executive start dumping it so the same executives he said the share price is cheap to the market are dumping their shares right and the money that they used to buy back their share. borrowed money from especially the fed ultimately charge them nothing to borrow that money so you're literally printing money in the form of the stock option appreciation that goes up as the share price is brought back and you are taking capital out of the economy and then there's nothing left for basic services like health care so you have millions of heroin addicts popping up all over america because it's ronte a guys at the top or just just being all this money out of the economy with the help of the regulators there so you see is a purpose of painting in this you know the problem with script is that they're not paying the s.e.c. enough bribe money hopefully that'll change soon enough he points out that this isn't necessarily illegal but he wonders whether or not it's good for america and
4:26 am
he says not. too many occasions companies do buybacks have failed to make the long term investments in innovation or their workforce that our economy so badly needs because we at the f.c.c. have not reviewed our rules governing stock buybacks in over a decade i worry whether these rules can protect investors workers and communities from the torrent of corporate trading dominating today's market what's the hold up they haven't reviewed the rules in a decade what do you do and here's five bucks i can claim here's five dollars can can you please rig the market for me to greedy little punk they're concerned trolling they're saying hey oh cher executives were a little bit concerned that we might have to regulate you if you don't make it if you stop making it so obvious you know we need more payoff we need more private we're going to regulate you wall street if you were small bags of money i'm too stupid to get a job at goldman sachs so i had to be a regulator you know you should be the perfect one of the regulator so is jay and
4:27 am
all the other regulators so then he goes on to say executives often claim that a buy back is the right long term strategy for the company and they're not always wrong but if that's the case they should want to hold the stock over the long run not cash it out once and. buyback is announced if corporate managers believe that buybacks are indeed best for the company its workers and its community they should put their money where their mouth is so that's not going to happen and we've covered that it's obviously corrupt we've pointed it out and perhaps that's why the f.c.c. is saying hey you know executives watch out obviously c.n.n. b c is not covering this fact they're not pointing out that this is corrupt and venal and a special place in hell should be reserved for you just like with sitting alongside justin trudeau you know the kaiser report on r t they're pointing this out and we're going to be in trouble people are complaining to us you know americans all across the country should call the f.c.c. today and let them know that they they are concerned about all the share buybacks and that the company executives are cashing out at the expense of the economy hell
4:28 am
doesn't exist anymore because it brought back all the chairs and the tape and taken private by j. clayton the f.c.c. so it's like you know it's also somewhat in existence there was hell to go with haven't capitalism should exist unless there's a penalty for committing troops so the f.c.c. is saying this is a special economy if you commit massive fraud there's no crime there's no criminal prosecution for you you know the former attorney general of america should call eric holder these banks are above the law and we question him i asked him this directly in the airport in washington i said do you still grieve that there is no law that applies to bankers. who ruled that a group to prove. the car should be flayed bring back a little show i'm really not sure if you are right or left headline in the news and again the theme of this show is there's a special place in hell there's a special place and how for justin trudeau this is a special place in hell for these executives dumping their shares while announcing
4:29 am
share buybacks and there's a special place and how for you k. ministers because u.k. security minister proposes digital i.d.'s to enforce online civility ben wallach is theresa may security. minister he has proposed that the u.k. follow china's example and require that any place providing internet access use bank account verification to affirmatively identify all the people who use the internet so they can be punished for bullying the minister characterized this as a choice between quote the wild west or civilized society he claimed that forcing people to identify themselves before they speak would end mob rule on the internet or b.b.c. . they don't have any free speech over there either if you say anything that's against the government they don't broadcast it i know that from experience on the b.b.c. the government reviewed every single word that won over the b.b.c. you get yours there is a here's the current or former al the united kingdom i don't know if they are ending. because we're
4:30 am
a nation of one and here they are saying that we want to we want to copy china we love china's social credit score and we're going to start kicking people off the trains you want to take the train to edinburgh no you can't do i say there i don't know because you know there's a law about how americans are allowed to pronounce at over edinburgh ok i'm going to say edinburgh who cares let's see if they bleep that in the u.k. . i mean we left the u.k. because this is disgusting horrible place full of bureaucrats with their mother for a nickel house of parliament and the house of commons is a range cesspool of idiots that i wouldn't want even to go to hell that we've been going through a special place in hell called being on the internet here in europe because we haven't been here very over a year and a half we've arrived here and every single fucking site you have to keep on clicking yes yes let me see it out on the privacy stuff like you know we know you track us you know you're following us we know access and the internet they're all
4:31 am
tracking you if if you wanted to have privacy the only way to do it is to be like richard stallman and if you've ever seen him use the internet you have to be a freak you have to be a geek you have to know how to do that you can't. you can't be rich just on we can all be rich just on the bit here we don't want to be kicked off trains and planes and and public services just because some bureaucrat doesn't like what we're saying what if they don't like what you're saying what if they find it rude that you're pointing out well in fact this article from boeing boeing points out that in the u.k. where libel laws favor the rich and powerful the ability to speak anonymously has been key to uncovering the historic sex abuse scandal and which the most powerful politicians and businessmen in britain were revealed to be rapists who preyed on children women and men with total impunity so if this law were in effect if they have a chinese sort of system any of those journalists that were pointing out that you
4:32 am
know the rich and powerful were preying on these children the jimmy savile's of the world memory took a punk rocker got leaked by the b.b.c. by the way johnny rotten or said vicious one of those guys pointed out that jimmy savile long ago you point out thirty years ago member when sid vicious was still alive that jimmy savile was a paedophile and they had they believed it because of these laws but now would have been kicked off public transport for saying that you know all you need to know about the u.k. is that jimmy savile almost became prime minister. that's. what he was but actually it was me. as a way to becoming. prime minister then whatever place the flag of britain with something to indicate that necrophilia was ok as far as british standards were concerned oh and speaking of mispronouncing words staying at the american way i did go to savile row once and i was asking directions i said
4:33 am
this is the seville row. i said it is. great and under the new law you would have been prevented from going. to somebody in a class. accent that indicated that they spent a lot of time in oxford oxford or cambridge getting. professors the same bed wall like again he said that social media companies should bear the cost of tracking the identities of all their users real name policies have proved to be a boon to authoritarian rulers in cambodia a dictator hans son has embraced facebook creating a direct pipeline to facebook's really in compliance team that his government uses to force critics to reveal their real identities and then they torture them and so just say you know this is what the u.k. wants stop talking about the u.k. makes me appear just to think about that oh i'm not going to this i'm going to say hell has a special place it's called the u.k. i think out of the second half of don't go away.
4:34 am
join me every thursday on the alex i'm i'm sure and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you. in. the iranian ayatollahs have become much more aggressive after the nuclear deal . twenty fifteen the only way to stop each of these with russia and the united states work together or what i think share in common is much more than what separates us and i believe that the united states has realized that russia has legitimate interests in the middle east and before you know during the cold war even after the cold war.
4:35 am
welcome back to the kaiser report imax keyser time now to turn to henry because of a streamer now first of all henry if i pronounce your last name correctly yeah that was pretty good close yeah right yeah ok fantastic is there a big tech scene and startup scene in finland yeah indeed i don't there's a text saying because you've got some huge tech companies from finland script are saying it's an engineering country for sure the stream of project is play based on switzerland because that's kind of on for is a better ecosystem for it for doing these blog chain projects because we still have a big team of developers in finland so what is the better ecosystem including regulation yeah including regulation is the finnish government's position currently about crypt out do they have a position is there much activity there yet i think they're kind of searching for their view on things of course finland is part of the e.u. they have to like wait for the. decisions on things and slowly that will come
4:36 am
down to the national legislation and so on and switzerland as not part of the e.u. but still in the middle of europe they can be a little bit more agile in supporting the kind of new technology and creating an environment that can can support that's ok so streamer dot com s t r r right. when we were. starting out we couldn't afford the domain when we went with the version of the transit was typing quite trendy this is i think a good way to put it so it says data done differently what does that mean so what we're doing is we are to changing the way in which people and organizations can share and monetize the data that they're producing for example when you use applications when you use your mobile phone you are generating data on your behavior that's currently going to big companies who sell it to advertise. yes the
4:37 am
same kind of patterns appear elsewhere as well and we want to change that we want to put the end user back in control of their data so that they could actually earn it by using a service or enable an organization that's producing data for example let's say a factory to share their data share their production estimates for example to a nearby power plant who finds that data valuable because they can optimize their operations in preparation for the demand for electricity from the factory or you could say. let's see a smart car a connected car you're driving around doing that your car can measure things from the environment maybe road condition data that's useful to the road authorities or maybe cell tower signal strength data that's useful to the network operators so why we while we live our lives and while organizations conduct their businesses they
4:38 am
are generating data that's potentially useful to others but this opportunity is not being utilized today in any way organizations are keeping the data in a silo but by doing so they're also placing a lead on the value of the data and there's no sharing happening at the moment because it's too difficult for their statement and you react to the statement data is the new oil yeah that's very accurate in many ways because it needs to be transported needs to be refined to be used as an end product they also need to be transported there's a long chain of things that need to happen before it's useful and streamer is a kind of a platform for refining the rebel. to something that's valuable to an end customer ok so data is a hot topic particularly in political terms because we've got a big scandal with a company called cambridge analytic right they. scrape data from social media
4:39 am
platforms and they're misusing the data it's being alleged that this data was used to. raid an election in america and twenty sixteen except so how do you deal with the fact that at the moment data got a p.r. problem that you know if i can put it in those terms yeah you can and i'd like to make that more specific centralized data has a p.r. problem right it's something that's out of control the end user people are giving away their data for free to facebook and other big companies google who are kind of taking advantage for that but of course that's their business model that is actually the current and only business model of free services on the internet could that be changed could we put the person the source of the data back in control so that they could decide who gets access to the data how it gets monetized maybe they
4:40 am
earn a share off that all this is possible with technology but it hasn't been possible kind of previous generation products here is a question which you probably don't know the answer to this question but i'll ask the question anyway you know it's been estimated that the value of a human being if you were to sell the organs in the liver the kidney the brain to harvest the organs it's worth something like two hundred bucks i mean the kidney now is worth more so let's say it's two hundred forty bucks you know the the break up value of a human yeah as anyone done an analysis or a study to which the data because your data is like i'm driving that's data i'm interacting with larry for. data because a refrigerator is a source refrigerator and all that data is there any estimate about how much value it potentially my data body is generating. comment on that i guess yeah
4:41 am
i haven't thought about that i mean it's probably more than the value of your organs for sure i mean not just what you want your bodies generating but only your actions what they are the products you use the car you drive where you drive everything that can be measured all the actions of a human being combined is certainly worth much more than two hundred bucks ok so year over there streamer so i wouldn't take it that you are trying to create a firewall between individual data in the world yeah so that i have possession and control of my data things actually go right now everything is held together with my skin if i my skin was gone i would be a just a bird gurgling burgling pile of organs and blood implies my right so he created data firewall and i am generating that i cannot help but generate data because i interact with the world right so you are protecting me or not protecting may protect his person like any particularly you or you are evil i am saving my data
4:42 am
that firewall is called encryption basically and what we can do in the streamer network is have end to end creeps and so when you produce the data gets encrypted you control who can access that you might sell that access for a fee ride like you you pay me you get access to my data this can happen at scale where as a user is a free device like a phone for example millions of people could put their data into this the same pool that was the companies like facebook that rely on free data there is their business model challenge that yeah it is for sure maybe there will be alternatives what if there was a like facebook facebook two point zero that allows their users to earn money by using that software i mean that would be amazing probably people would actually actually switch over or if you're buying a phone there's two phones one of them allows you to earn money by using the phone and the other one is just a regular phone which one do you buy. if there are otherwise similar kooris you buy
4:43 am
the one that enables you that empowers you to control your data and monetize your data in northern europe which then let us part of they have like mixed economies socialist capitalism is kind of a mix right to be at least now the capital like socialism. so but the states pretty big in the states get a lot of benefits up there in northern europe education health it's like a real nice place you know because you can't be left on the street because you just happen to break your arm you're not going to be abandoned by her society and turn into a like in america they've got a whole leper colony forty million in a leper colony in san francisco now it's amazing but the point of my question is that they comes back to something called universal basic income fact is everyone is valuable their data yeah right so let's say i don't work but if i can still it's i'm still data rich and if i can if i get a thousand or two thousand
4:44 am
a month just my encrypted data and selling it selectively isn't that kind of a similar idea yeah there could be states or governments where. citizens are offered a basic income based on the data that they generate ok so but i don't sure if it would be enough for a living could there be professional data generator could there be i think not i think it wouldn't be enough for for a decent living in ok what streamer is kind of like in that business so it definitely works on the individual level right the sun individuals are your users well organised patients machines as well i mean this enables machine to machine. they only were robot uprising short story story. about humans. the anti-human humans are trans in time we will be replaced why hybrids or. we will
4:45 am
take some time it will take some time. still for a second that humans have a future ok fair enough fair no make that assumption ok so you say it's for individuals and corporations and so for example there's a huge corporation and i have ten thousand employees. that were on my mind going in the right path i mean so we're not it's not really about the employees i mean organizations as organizations conduct. as part of the business they do they collect data they generate data they make measurements of the environment and there are satellites circling the earth and measuring how many cars there are on a parking lot right and this data is valuable to. some traders who are speculating on the stock price and so on so. the imagination of the data collectors is the limit of what kind of use case he's can emerge if we
4:46 am

4:48 am
after three years of conflict has been estimated that out of a population of twenty seven point four million twenty two point two million people are in need of humanitarian assistance so why are the u.s. and u.k. so the saudi u.a.e. war.
4:49 am
welcome to worlds apart israel has long argued against a permanent iranian presence in southern syria and to some extent its arguments were heated by russia but is the united states occupation of northeastern series becoming more entrenched and permanent in nature and will israel act on russia's concerns well to discuss that i'm now joined by danielle a along former deputy foreign minister of israel and former israeli ambassador to the united states ambassador it's very good to talk to you thank you very much for your time my pleasure i think you would agree with me that russia by and large has
4:50 am
been responsive to israel's security concerns. it doesn't get involved when israel takes a liberty to strike targets on the syrian territory obviously violating the sovereignty of that country and yet you know russia allows that to happen do you think though this kind of arrangement has any limits that israel has to be mindful off well certainly as one is very mindful of russian into. russian is a very friendly country we very much value and appreciate our very good relationship with russia i think it's also very important for russian is want to work together as so many of our interests are converging and certainly in the case of for the for ration ofa nuclear material in the case of counterterrorism in many many things russia and israel are working together and on
4:51 am
the issue of syria and iran i think both countries both israel and russia have a very very strong interest of having stability. in syria or for having you know ending any. forces that may. provoke a door provoke and cause a lot of violence both in syria and also in the surrounding countries jumping in i think russian city has an interest of not seeing forces that would act if that would act provoke at tivoli in in syria but i think those forces at least from the russian point of view include not only the iraqi armed forces but also american forces and to some extent is really forces because israel has become increasingly assertive in striking targets on the territory of syria even if russia looks the
4:52 am
other way i think indirectly it does impact on russia's own interests do you think russia will continue looking the other way or do you think it will actually become a little bit more proactive in deterring these type of assertiveness on the part of israel when i think the close cooperation will continue and there is a very good chemistry and personal relationship between prime minister and it's and you know and president putin and. i think the things look very good for both our countries i think the last thing that russia needs in israel is a very active runyan presence. and with the other shiite militias at the end of the day we have to remember whether it's the shiite militias or whether it's sunni militias whether it's in chechnya or whether it's in israel or in europe we are old in the same boat so i think limiting the runyon presence in syria is very important and we have to remember senator that we are not
4:53 am
the one who started it we have not been any we didn't have any involvement in syria whatsoever until the iranians came close and they also said that they were going to open a second front i'm afraid our reading of the syrian conflict is very very different because i think from the russian point of view is that the iranians who came first if the americans and the saudis and they could tyreese who started financing and supporting extreme sunni groups and i have to correct you that. since you mention that we suffered from the presence of extremist sunni groups not shia groups but. staying on that she issued because these she is c.n.n. has just recently reported that it was actually ease rail reach strike targets close to the iraqi border last sunday reportedly killing twenty two people who are
4:54 am
believed to believed to be belong to the iraq's popular occupation force so it's not only about iran anymore it's also about iraq because that group of paramilitaries it is officially part of iraqi military right now do you have any concerns that israel may be perceived as. striking or waging an on declare war against the shia forces in general no not really and you know about. c.n.n. reports i don't know how much should credibility. i didn't hear any confirmation from any israeli military authorities really military i thought just never and never come for it never confirmed such incidents so that's not an argument they're ok but in any case it would be suicide you're right senate there were the sunni militias and as far as we're concerned you know well let's say that you do a christian heritage. whatever you know which is not based on me yes there is
4:55 am
a big fight between shia and sunni but whoever wins they're going to go against us so there is not much difference between the extreme islamists in there. and isis or hizbullah or hamas or others but this is beside the point you rights and you know that there were a isis and other forces saudis and others in syria but these forces did not threaten israel and this is why we were not involved whatsoever actually the only way we were the only i would say a matter that we were involved in was putting you many tarion you know that we have on the border between israel and syria and the golan heights we have field hospitals we treat everyone who comes whether they are terrorists or not but when the iranians and hezbollah and their militias were targeting us when they were coming over towards our border and we saw the need to be here because
4:56 am
a i find these formulation by is really officially a form officials very curious somebody coming over towards our border you have to decide whether it is over your border or towards the oberoi because coming towards your border is not a crime people are entitled to be where they want to be if it's according to the lawyer if it's according with the agreement bilateral agreements that exist there on the side but putting that aside that you mentioned the sunni extremists and it is i think quite. obvious to everybody that israel is increasingly cozying up with the most hardline sunni regimes like saudi arabia other regimes in the region and those regimes quite clearly finance have financed and perhaps will continue financing the most extremist groups in syria do you see any danger coming from those groups to israel. well again i do not make any distinction between the radical sunni and the radical shiite i think they are against the entire world but
4:57 am
when i say that they are coming towards our border they are not coming with flowers and with candies they come with arsenal of deadly weapons and just two three months ago the iranians sent a drone with explosives into our territory every now and then they are shooting. at our territory so we have learned from experience that if you let the. terror groups like chris in lebanon to build up and build up and build up then it creates a major war and we cannot allow that they will threaten our major appropriation centers and what iran is trying to do in syria is create another shiite base in iranian base in syria just like they do they did in lebanon this is why we cannot
4:58 am
allow it and i think that the russian authorities understand and respect it on the other hand you are right there is a closeness of relationship now between the gulf countries and israel but this is mainly because of the threat from iran iran is the main state destabilizer in the region you know they are in yemen helping the who is against the government they are in lebanon with hezbollah against the government they are in libya they are anywhere they are in but her reign they were trying to actually topple old the sunni governments and now they're trying to do the same thing in syria and we have to stop them now ambassador you left perfectly to my next question is israel has long maintained that it was committed to preventing iran or any of its offshoots from establishing themselves in syria and for that it counted extensively on the russian understanding. i think even collaboration to some extent is israel ready to return and that favor because we are now hearing about u.s.
4:59 am
plans to establish a more permanent american presence in northeastern syria which definitely goes against russia's interests in that country should we expect israel to be an advocate of russia's interest with that merrick and especially now that you have such a perfect relationship with the white house yes i think i think this is a very good i think this is a very good thing both for moscow and from for washington and for jerusalem. i believe that israel will do its best because here you know russia is our friend america is our friend i think we have a lot of interest against the against terrorism and against instability in the region so i'm sure that israel can do a lot in advocating in. sending messages and also trying to influence the result in syria will be the best outcome you know that the united states now against the former position of the united states have said that they are not
5:00 am
minding. staying in power now assad staying in power is a very important russian interest so we now support this russian interest and now america supports the russian interest so i'm sure we will be filled to respect this is not what i am i what i ask you about because for russia preserving syrian territorial integrity and sovereignty east paramount it's not just about who sits in damascus it's about keeping the country intact and i ask you specifically on the american plans not official plans but actively discussed plans to establish a quasi i protectorate a quasi american protectorate in that country. what are the process and cons for israel they are well i would say the only pro for israel is. syria which has no press. of hizbollah shiite militias and iran and not
5:01 am
only that not allowing iran to build. major ballistic missile facilities because we cannot allow the iranians to build missiles in lebannon or in syria and give it to the hizbollah and they use it as proxies against us this is something that has to end we have exposed the iranians face now and they should be up front so far the iranians have been very very methodical and very very sophisticated i would say very conniving when they were behind all the proxies they were willing to fight until the last piece balaam in or the last assad men or the last shiite militias now we want to see the iranians in the front and this is where i think when their interests are going to be harmed when their people are going to be at harm's way i think this will perswade them to go back to their territory and about their territorial in great integrity of syria i'm sure that
5:02 am
israel and russia are talking together all the time and i'm sure we see things most of the things i too i well ambassador we have to take a very short break now but we will be back in just a few moments statement. this is harlan kentucky. boy it was very. a coma any city with him a snow cone mines left. john to ground zero. that. these people are survivors of a disappearing. before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger
5:03 am
that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in a million years i would see that and it's happened it's happened. at a place for many clubs over the years so i know the game and so i got. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch for the funnel school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super money just kill you narrowness and spending to twenty million one player. it's an experience like nothing else not to because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful guy a great so what more chance for. the thinks it's going to take. when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murder i would
5:04 am
prefer and it's meaningless to the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict just found innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people is terrifying the is just no really hasn't been that we hear even many of the times families want the death penalty to be abolished the reason we have to keep the death penalty here is because that's what murder victims' families what that's going to give them peace that's going to give them justice and we come in saying. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way. welcome back to worlds apart with a meal or
5:05 am
a loan for my deputy foreign minister of israel. ambassador just before the break we started discussing this. suppose that american plans of forming a more permanent presence in syria and. the white house i mean according to the leaks from the white house the main rationale there is just as you articulated is to deter the rainy and present and historically i think american adventures in the middle east tend to empower iran the rather than the weaken it what makes you believe that this time around it's going to be different well i think the first thing is that the united states now has a lot of experience and also knowing the inner politics in washington and saying i'm sure you know it too and you follow that the trumpet ministration. does not entertain too much the idea of what we called boots on the ground or american forces extended all over the world so i think their policy. in principle the policy
5:06 am
of the united states is to bring all their boys back home so this is why i think they're also in syria and on the border you know eastern syria on the border with iraq. i think that their objective is to finish the job as soon as possible and get back home well ambassador what i think the americans are planning to do is to pull their troops out and outsource the job to the saudis and qataris and i honestly don't see how it's going to be better because i'm not a great fan of the american military in syria but i'm even a lesser fan of the saudis proxies in syria but that customs of cutting have do you have any concerns that this kind of arrangement is going to give a second wind to this already extremely bloody conflict. well senator i hope not i think a lot of diplomatic now there is a room for a lot of diplomatic work and i believe that with the united states and russia
5:07 am
together i think the pressure should be put and can be put on only iran because once you run out i think most of the problems are done and then you can deal also with the sunni's but first and foremost i think iran is the main provoke a tour if you will it's the most dangerous one you know. you asked about why israel is so concerned about iran iran is the only country in the world that says out in the front without their disguise they want to destroy our country of course we will not let them to do that your own government and the your allies in the trumpet ministration are pretty open about their vision change agenda in iran so you guys have to you're essentially equals i think you do you treat each other in the same way that provokes these kind of animosity between the two of you well again i think it starts with the ayatollah as the ayatollahs in iran which i don't believe they represent the people of iran they have been very dangerous they are very extreme
5:08 am
they want chaotic situation they want to hedge of money actually they want to control the entire middle east and we see that we see it in iraq we see it in syria in lebanon in yemen in libya about her and you just name it and i think this is the main source if you add into this the fact that they have become the iranian ayatollahs have become much more aggressive after the nuclear deal in twenty fifteen so you see a very very unstable situation and i think the only way to stop it is with russia and the united states work together i think there the interests here are much more there what what i think we share in common is much more than what separates us and i believe that the united states has realized that russia has legitimate interests in the middle east and before you know during the. cold war and even after the cold war it was like a zero sum game well ambassador we were told to respect i think if the united states has a habit of changing its mind very frivolously his though even if it did realize
5:09 am
that i can easily imagine it reaching a different conclusion just you know the day or a few weeks down the line but going back to the actual discussion one of the reasons why syria is so dependent on the run is because the united states does everything possible to prevent it from generating income it is actively seeking to undermine no sabotage any kind of reconstruction it is blocking serious trade with its neighbors not to mention occupying almost thirty percent of its territory shouldn't shouldn't it be doing the exact opposite thing if it wanted to be less reliant on. well absolutely and i'm sure again this this thing will come but you know you have to do it you cannot just put as we say you cannot put the cart before the horses and first of all you have to get the iranians out they have no
5:10 am
business in syria once the iranians are out of syria believe me standing i'm sure syria will be in a much better place with the reconstruction with investments and most of all with peace so their people will stop being under the their rage of all the wars and all the infighting and again we have to see there are right now according to my estimates at least eighteen thousand shia militias they have no place they have no reason to be there whatsoever you have there a few thousand if you run in as they call it advisers they have no reason to do it well if you ask a random guy in moscow if the united states and israel should have these strong mill. terry alive that you guys have most of the people of would tell you that it is detrimental to russia's interest in the region but so what who cares and in the
5:11 am
same line of argument i want to ask you who is israel to decide whether there should be any security or defense corporation between syria and iran well that's a good question but i would say you know the u.s. is a relationship you know goes a long back and we know we did not invite the united states that we don't have any soldiers or any american bases in israel we can defend ourselves by ourselves we have told the americans we never want any anybody else to fight for us we can do it if we have to but in the case of iran as they mentioned they came with very harmful intentions they are not only in syria but we see that syria is only part of the puzzle and if you look you know from a more. strategic point of view we see that what the iranians are trying to do is actually to isolate and to circle israel what our demand from iran is not just an israeli demand it's the demand of jordan of all the gulf countries of egypt
5:12 am
so you see that the region itself sees iran as a major major threat in all of us and you know when you have israelis and arabs agree on something believe me this is very true so iranians are the bad guys unfortunately it's not the iranian people we respect the iranian people it's the iranian told us until nine hundred seventy nine we had good relations with iran hopefully i mean i'm not talking about regime change it's not up to us about their own fully the iranian people. will have a better better leaders to lead them and thus it is very very with all due respect i think the region is if we are being fair if divided when it comes to iran there are many countries that are eager to advance that trade and that context with that kind. three. on your second point that israel doesn't have any problem with the people of iran and i'm sure the you know the iranians would say the same that you
5:13 am
know even the iranian ayatollahs would tell you that they have absolutely no problem with the jews but they they do have a problem with the current political. structure in israel which puts its own security interests above everybody else which allows itself the kind of military and security tactics that very few countries to be honest with you would be a for that if they were not supported by be united states but rather than arguing about that i want to ask you one more question specifically about the trumpet ministration because you have referred to throughout this program to you you know new kinds of ideas the experience that this administration supposedly have. some of the people in that administration for example national security advisor john bolton have long argued in favor of the partition of both theory a and iraq to create something in the middle that he refers to as soon as stan do you think that's already the actual intention of the white house or are they still being weighed
5:14 am
about what's their ultimate game in northern syria is i think it's still. work in progress i'm sure that they have not come to any conclusions but just one thing the difference between israel and iran that does not call for the destruction of iran even told us the iranians call for the destruction of israel so where by definition they are against the jews but when it comes to iran. iraq and syria what we see. is the residual catastrophe that the colonial powers in world war one caused you know france and england they are the one created iraq and syria is artificial countries and you know what they did if you look at it. they did conquer divide by and conquer because when they look at syria with a sunni majority majority they put. regime overeats in iraq with
5:15 am
a shia majority they put a sunni government so this is part of the main problem that we see now not only in syria and iraq but throughout the middle east let them better don't you think that you're conveniently forgetting a more recent history including the american intervention in iraq which really created a chaos in that part of the world to be and which was assisted them to some extent promoted by mr bolton who we're mentioning already do you actually because i know that you are a big supporter of the trumpet ministration presumably of mr bolton himself do you think he has been a positive force in your part of the world well in hindsight i must tell you send him maybe. the operation back in two thousand and three should have been against iran iran is the more dangerous power iran is much more capable and stronger than saddam hussein's iraq ever was so in that respect maybe they should have gone
5:16 am
and clear you run from their. nuclear infrastructure against all the international commitments of iran iran is a member of the nonproliferation treaty and they have violated and we know how they hide things and iran is not the only country that is hiding things especially when it comes to nuclear weapons right ambassador i think you know better than i did that israel is widely believed to hold a few dives and of nuclear war have but there is a difference iran is a member of the n.p.t. they signed they have to work they have to live by their signature israel is not a member of n.p.t. for our own national. security we have a very very specific. you know with a policy that israel will not be the first to introduce nuclear weapons in the middle east we abide by eat and nothing else but iran signed in chile and saw they
5:17 am
have the previous american administration signed to deal with iran and they cheat it so what i mean that that seems to be quite admissible behavior in these day and age don't you think so i hope not i hope not and we have to see who are the aggressors who are the ones that provoke were the ones that are really very very bad meanings and this is the main problem is that they have very very bad meanings not only towards israel but towards the sunni countries towards europe and i think that from a russian point of view and of course i am and not in any position to do to consult the russians it's your prerogative and you do it the best but for russia to have a long border with iran with the possibility of a nuclear iran under diego told us i think it's risking everything while ambassador all i can tell you is that the iranians are definitely not the easiest that negotiating partners for russia but the but the russians have found is what do you
5:18 am
negotiate in good faith you can actually find some common ground i think israel may benefit from exploring that approach as well but anyway we should leave it here i really appreciate your time on the show and i encourage our viewers to keep this conversation going in our social media pages as for me hope to see you again same place same time here on the world's apart. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or
5:19 am
rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. more some want to be rich. what's it like to be prosperous what with the four legs tree in the morning can't be good that i'm interested always in the waters of my house. first six. months. stock market manipulation. regulators like to. see what. all they're trying to do is cover their tracks so that when the lawsuits happen they can say oh we were aware of it we warned against it we're
5:20 am
on top of it but they are aiding and abetting the regulators or capture the regulators or the regulators that. day seven of the fifa world cup are wrapped up in russia. has been blown in the last. screen. i. also on wednesday saudi arabia the first teams to be eliminated from the tournament after. why and portugal respectively. will return
5:21 am
with more championship football coverage of the latest world news but right now takes a look at the tragic consequences of the war. hello and welcome to cross talk were considered. after three years of conflict it has been estimated that out of a popular. of twenty seven point four million twenty two point two million people in yemen are in need of humanitarian assistance four point five million children and women are suffering malnutrition while two point nine million people are internally displaced this is a humanitarian catastrophe by any measure so why are the u.s. and u.k. so committed to the saudi u.a.e.
5:22 am
war on yemen. cross-talk in the tragedy known as yemen i'm joined by my guest well how many marandi into him he's a professor at the university of program in london we have charles bridge he is a security analyst and a former u.k. army and counter terrorism intelligence officer and in brighton we cross to catherine shocked and she is a senior analyst with the center all right crosstalk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want i always appreciated let me go to charles first. this war has been going on for three years i gave some of the stats encourage our viewers to go to doctors without frontiers and look at their side on yemen the much more detailed much more gruesome i would even say what is the u.k. u.s. interest in this war against the country this is the poorest country in the middle
5:23 am
east what is the thinking behind british foreign policy supporting saudi arabia and the emirates against yemen. i suspect on the one hand you've got u.k. and the u.s. saying that to some degree and we can come on to that later on their national interests are aligned with saudi arabia particularly against iran of course in yemen elsewhere and again you have to question i'm hoping hopefully later in a post we will do that in more detail as to why the u.k. and u.s. always seem to see their interests as being in conflict with iran in most instances but also there's got to be a aspect of this which is based on commercial interests of course britain and america supply vast amounts of weaponry and other equipment to saudi arabia the relationship with saudi arabia particularly it's not just saudi arabia involved here is one of course other gulf states as well all of which have very lucrative.
5:24 am
commercial contacts with britain and the united states and indeed france and there has been certainly of the last few years a tendency for particularly united kingdom that anything that is saudi arabia supports pretty much britain and america are going to support also we have to remember just really how important this relationship particularly saudi arabia is if we think about trump we think about. other government ministers united states and united kingdom their first port of ports of call when they've been put into office isn't their allies in europe or the states often it's usually going off to see two players both of whom are vitally important to british and particular interest one of those is israel and the other one always saudi arabia and so really i think this war is becoming increasingly an embarrassment not just war but the blockade in everything else that goes with it is becoming embarrassment to western leaders as invariably parts of it creep into media coverage because there's been a little account as yet of the last three creep creep but also if they will they
5:25 am
will continue to support it catherine let me go to you in brighton ok so we've got a little bit of the background the the reason. if we can use that term for the british and the americans so what does fig tree me. for the saudis in the us the genocide i mean what what do they hope to what is the end goal here go ahead. the end goal was basically the situation of the had would have cried to two thousand and eleven when the people decided to to rise up against the then you know regime where the us i would europe that was in control of yemen and yemen's political future as well as economical future and i think that this is what they're trying to do trying to revert back to you know the situation that we had you know preaches other than f. and that is not going to happen because people have learned that they have a right to political said determination and they understand you know the majority of yemen youngest and that's why would you is not there to promote greater yemen or
5:26 am
even to promote a greater future for yemen but rather you know you have yet another country a client state that would remain forever tied up to yemen. i mean just very quickly when we talk about you know british and the u.s. siding with saudi arabia because of the fear and the enemy cities that have to would see iran we need to be very careful here to understand that yemen is a proxy only in the eyes of britain and the u.s. because they reason the iranian influence yemen represents your graphically advantage and it's sitting on very important waterways needed to really and of course because of all routes which is why britain and the u.s. all are interested in yemen in the through play first place it has nothing to do with the fact that you want to have the na in yemen but rather because of the geography and where yemenis is situated in relation to iran and the rest of the gulf countries and i think it's an important point because we need to stop this narrative that iran you know has an interest in trying to promote unrest in yemen that's not the case if anything iran needs stability in the region to be able to
5:27 am
itself you know you know stabilize its own borders and everything else like goes with it i think that's really glad you brought that up because there is a. and determination issue in yemen that is never brought up in the mainstream media and charles already brought up the issue that is always mentioned i'm going to go to mohammed now into rant it's all iran's fault as usual i mean you pick the day of the week it's russia's fault or rand's fault here now i'm willing to agree that iran may have some kind of involvement on some level now but not in two thousand and eleven that was what how this was sold so to intervention in the first place here but it's always a rand's fold it's a proxy war it's far more than a proxy war as catherine has pointed out go ahead mohamad into around this is one of the excuses that western countries in the western media use in order to justify the crimes being committed by their governments the canadian government american and british and french governments are involved in crimes against humanity and they
5:28 am
are just as guilty as mohamed been solomon and the saudi regime and all this without them he couldn't be carrying out these crimes the americans are providing all sort of source of the just simple support so they need to justify it somehow obviously for anyone to know for who knows anything about what's going on the yemenis do not have the ability to have any meaningful contact with iran there's no way that the iranians can help them in a meaningful way because they're completely surrounded the americans and the saudis and others have laid siege on the country they're preventing food from getting in there and forcing starbase starvation they've been doing this for years now and the western media they call it a proxy war or they try to somehow blame the victims in gaza in order to again justify their policies but it's obvious that this country is surrounded the
5:29 am
overwhelming majority of the population is living in the areas controlled by. the law and their allies the popular committees and so on after all these years after over three and a half years with all the internal foreign support american support european support mercenaries from from different countries blackwater and an american and french official military presence on the ground sudanese mercenaries after all you know with all the money that the saudis and their marti's are spending if they cannot capture the capital of the country that shows that it is the will of the people of yemen that prevents them from doing so that shows that the resistance against the saudis and the americans is in the gentleman and popular resistance but that's something that they don't want to see because that makes c.n.n. that makes the new york times the guardian the b.b.c.
5:30 am
all of them run against their own government if they point these out that humiliates their own government position charles i have noticed that in what scant coverage there is on the cable stations the iran card is always almost always played for so ok and there is not the not there isn't a willingness to admit that are serious war crimes are being committed and i'd like to point out the the who these also have been accused of that in all fairness but this is a very tragic conflict. again not you know what is the endgame here because i mean what just reading the stats i mean this is a country humanitarian situation that is winding down very whiney out of control in a very serious way i mean cholera i mean something that is virtually wiped out in the world this comeback in the benjamin's there and there seems to be no cry
5:31 am
whatsoever from the media i mean it makes them culpable go ahead charles. oh if there is outcry you've already kind of hinted at it's a humanitarian situation that seems to have risen out of nothing but this is a famine that there are hundreds of thousands of children not in education but there is as you say for the second year running now the danger of a cholera epidemic breaking out as if this is got nothing to do with the fact that this war has been visited upon this people by saudi arabia and its allies but particularly of course what's missing from the western media coverage is that they see war this assault on this country as you point out one of the poorest countries on earth and facing terrible predicament for its people that this assault on this country is enabled totally by britain america and france particular britain and america in supplying the weapons that are being used against the yemeni people and
5:32 am
of course study after study from independent organizations from monitoring groups human rights groups as well as the u.n. itself have shown repeatedly that there has been almost no care taken to prevent civilian casualties we're talking about the humanitarian situation that is largely been caused by the blockade that is in place that is preventing medicines and food surviving as we speak even fighting going on of course the assault has been launched on the major held port by the saudis and. again with british and american and french not only material covered by providing the materials the logistical support the intelligence the refueling and arming capabilities but the weapons themselves but also diplomats and propaganda video not sick and propaganda for example it was britain france and america that blocked the swedish if it's initiative a few days ago to actually call a ceasefire and that was actually virtually absent from u.k. and u.s.
5:33 am
media coverage and one other aspect which is quickly mention what the catherine mention and to support what she said. it's interesting about the iran i'm going to you mention always been brought up but in three years no actual hard evidence has been shown whatsoever even by those that claim that iran is back and he has to prove that i'm sorry i got a job i'm going to jump in here and we have to remember that in december of last year the pentagon admitted it had troops on the ground we're going to go to a short break and after a short break that short break we'll continue our discussion on yemen state with our to. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to a guest of the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you then.
5:34 am
yes phone no i don't know what was the last time that you went on the internet no i am not used to these village is it safe. are you sure there is no actual research or they're all going to be sure the baby does a class of his so the. question we're going to. force. is a death as part of the other significant. risk . free risk. yes they are being formed in a very astute member of the society. let's.
5:35 am
welcome back across the uk where all things considered i'm peter lavelle remind you we're discussing the tragedy no museum. ok let me go back to catherine on skype in the in a in brighton well as we've already pointed out in this program and you put it quite definitively in the first part of the program. the people of yemen do not want to be occupied they are proven over the last three years to be quite resistant to that even though the casualties are high in every single way there has never been any doubt solid documentation that iran is helping militarily or any in any kind of meaningful material way so what is facing the saudis in the u.a.e. . in the in the emirates i mean it doesn't. have
5:36 am
a land invasion in occupied i mean the people of yemen have shown to be quite resilient to the onslaught to dave experience over the last three and a half years go ahead catherine well yes i mean historically yemen was nothing they did in that you know the ultimate in power actually you know gevalt been allowed yemen to have a great degree of autonomy and it really goes to show that you know this i would say i'm not really good at brushing up on the history bearing in mind that yemen is actually a direct neighbor when it comes to you know immediate trivia i don't think it's going to happen because no of it i mean even the south of yemen might actually give up and actually open it's already kind of done it already to you know open up itself to you know the u.a.e. of saudi arabia a very much doubt that the north will give up because you know they all are very different people together and for very obvious reason they understand that it. would mean an entire genocide for them because saudi arabia is very thick there in its approach and has made sure that you know the the onset
5:37 am
a lot of the resistance movement in general and northern yemen globally has been legal and at this you know these shia title and therefore should be obliterated we tend to forget this you know this idea not just that you get in victory what they're trying to do is to not eat an entire people because that they're really just standing there with just belief and the tradition and you know forget to do two bits about this to put in casualty and understand that they no collateral damage you know this i would have to be schooled to pick the maximum damage on civilians because he was the people to rise up against the resistance movement not understanding that the resistance movement in itself is made out of the people they lead to be seen on satellite has given by the people of yemen it's not being created at ups the net and they feel a victory for the saudi ease by definition impossible their people will not allow it but in the meantime we facing a catastrophe of people equal proportion because northern yemen is being discriminated for only one reason is that these people decided. to be free in their
5:38 am
own land in their own sovereignty so the real question is are we actually winning in western countries to defend a nation such a thought to be i'll actually get up and for pick our own rights to all who own sovereignty and own democracy because they think that what we doing but allowing a country to look for to declare war on another in yemen exactly go back to mohammed in i mean considering the i mean we see some kind of peace overture process with north korea about nuclear weapons and then we got to go in the other side of the world we have around and considering the cast of characters that surround president trump i'm not hopeful at all on what's going to happen when it comes to iran i have distinct worry that they're going to use this humanitarian crisis given the way the media works is going to say this is a rand's fault because of iran's involvement and that's just another of the box that is checked in this an agenda that looking at regime change in iran punishing
5:39 am
iran more sanctions eccentric cetera and this is when they'll pull out the pictures this is when they're going to have the crying mothers and the skinny babies that's when they're going to start showing those pictures they have them all saved up in archive and that's when they're going to use it that's my supposition ok go ahead mom. i think it's quite obvious that what is i'm different in this part of the world is the saudi israeli alliance and their relationship with the white house and the united states political regime in general. in the cape for example just. recently we saw another airstrike on book camel in the east of syria where either the americans or the israelis bombed iraq he and syrian forces that were fighting isis so but this is something that the western media won't touch why because it's in the interests of the israeli regime it's in service of in the interest of the americans to keep syria unstable and to strengthen israel that is the criteria
5:40 am
through which everything is judged and in the case of yemen we see the exact same thing because yemen as opposed to saudi arabia the people of yemen are supposed. to saudi arabia they don't want to legitimize this resistance so they have to find a scapegoat and that scapegoat is of course iran whether it's in gaza whether it's in syria whether it's in iraq everything is iran and it's i think it's very racist the way in which western countries ignore and west the western media ignore what's happening in yemen which is the greatest catastrophe so far in this century and the . but on the other hand i think what's important is that the saudis are losing the war in spite of the problem propaganda in al what data the saudis have been unable to capture the city they've been unable to capture their port they've been they face serious casualties we have from according to the
5:41 am
resistance and yemen the americans have a command post and border and maha in support of the attacks we know for example that al qaeda in yemen as the head of al qaeda said last year that they are fighting alongside the soul would be the. u.a.e. backed forces which is not strange because that's exactly what happened in libya there was use overthrow as up and look at look at libya today just the fighting right now that's been taking place over the last few days or what or what we saw in syria and of course in syria the western media likes to say that president assad has killed hundreds of thousands of its own people in reality it was obama and his allies that are responsible for these deaths and in yemen if you notice they always say it's for three and a half years now they've been saying ten thousand people have died and when reality
5:42 am
hundreds of thousands of people have died but they tried to downplay the casualties in yemen to try to hide them even though hundreds of thousands of people have died from cholera from starvation and other sicknesses preventable sickness is and whereas in iran and syria they were trying to inflate it despite the fact that they were in reality the side that was responsible more than anyone else let me go to charles in london we ought to point out also that a lot of a number of international aid groups are leaving yemen because of the humanitarian crisis being there to help but it's getting to such a critical point that they can't even protect their own people or if they were charles in london be i looked at how the pentagon has reacted to all this they say that they are solely targeting al qaeda on the on the arabian. does that cut me does that does that make any sense to you i mean they say but it seems to me that if they're giving logistical support than i guess all these al qaeda people are in wedding procession is all the time ok i mean it doesn't make any sense to me at all
5:43 am
go ahead charles. you know america and britain often they're playing a double game they will say one thing in public and in private they're doing something else for example i would say that they urge restraint on israel restraint on saudi arabia and then behind the scenes it's clear they're saying that's all you're going to hear from us here is the next check for the next weapons load that you're going to use to carry out these humanitarian atrocities in unite in yemen it's absolutely clear that the one of the main reasons why al qaeda in iraq is still a problem for the west is because it instability in that country in the same way that isis came out of the instability created by the west or at least largely fostered by the west in iraq and syria and now of course also as was pointed out in libya and so and then of course notice how in syria the existence of isis on the ground even though that is waning largely as a result of being crushed by forces such as hezbollah the iranian militia solder russian air force and so on that the presence of isis is then used by the united
5:44 am
states and britain as a justification for having troops and a presence on the ground and that's there's probably some element of that in why the americans are still active in yemen but the main reason is to support the saudi onslaught the saudis have proved again and again that regardless of the massive amounts of military capability they have that in terms of actually putting that to use they are not actually that competent and therefore they're largely reliant on western logistical intelligence and other support but let's put something as well throw something into the mix here for example three within the last three years britain's arms exports to saudi arabia they quickly equate to something like ten billion dollars. half of all britain's arms exports yeah go to one country saudi arabia and that's on top of the massive saudi and incidentally also qatari influence that these countries have on the city of london in terms of of ownership
5:45 am
. stocks and shares companies and also real estate and let's not forget as well the massive flotation that's coming up of the large part of the saudi sovereign wealth fund the oil fund that is going to come up in the next few months for which london and new york are absolutely falling to to achieve the flotation on their markets and so support saudi arabia for britain or at least the elites running britain and america as well when you look at political donations to the ruling elites running these countries the role of saudi arabia like israel is absolutely vital and the sad thing is that they put on one side the massive lucrative gains that are to be had from continue this relationship is toxic relationship a country like saudi arabia on the other side is the suffering and the deaths of the creation of a humanitarian catastrophe which is largely not being reported in the west and certainly isn't being reported as anything in which britain and america are complicit. in this a lot of part of what you said charles just it's just shameful it is utterly
5:46 am
shameful and having the media cover because of stock prices oh my goodness catherine there are reports that the pentagon is hesitating a little bit with the last major port who day. because they know if they cut shut that if they allow the their merits to capture it and shut it down then the humanitarian crisis just gets excel aerated somebody somebody in the pentagon is a little worried about this that's just reports i read last forty seconds of the program go to you catherine go ahead. i don't know if they really worried about the humanitarian catastrophe i think they're actually worried that they're going to use you know these bottles for this because i don't think the resistance movement really allow it to who and they will throw everything that they've got against it so i think it's more to do you know having to do is very publicly very geo strategic you know a seaport in northern yemen rather than be carrying full for humanitarian crisis
5:47 am
because this crisis has gone on for three years and millions of people have already suffered and all in it continue to suffer so i don't think that washington is very appropriate hide you know by civilian suffering and casualties i think the house more to do we can do is in very publicly a very important battle for yemen because you know eve pointed out doesn't fool do . more than just the wall they have been doing in their reasoning catherine i have to jump in here we've run out of time many thanks to my guest in london brighton. and thanks to our viewers for watching us here or to see you next time and remember crosstalk. you know world big partisan movie lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than
5:48 am
ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. the politicians do something anything. they put themselves on the line when they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or somehow want to. have to go on to be press this is like the full three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters in the. city.
5:49 am
well. this is a border checkpoint. and pakistan where these children are returning to pakistan with their families. this is probably the first vaccination they've ever had. in two thousand and fourteen the becky stanny army launched a full scale operation in one of the most dangerous and problematic regions on the planet. jacks if to bring north waziristan back under control.
5:50 am
over local people are at last able to go home. over it. whether they want to or not they have to build new lives for themselves and and new groups. but. the only way to get into his ear is to know is with them thank you stan a military they agreed to take our crew along but on their terms our timetable and
5:51 am
program were put in advance and were rever we went the military had to go with us for our own safety on the other hand no one prevented us from making our own observations. so in the shower the military brought us to our hotel where a lot of foreigners used to stay. even here in the city that was never on the terrorist or extremist control this is the entrance to. looks like a lot of if you live in love with guns actually all these hotels built as a fortress. and . that's never was a risk on itself yet but a neighboring province they have brought us here to show was what they call the d.
5:52 am
radicalization center but anytime we stepped outside over a hotel we were scored by four to five vehicles loaded with five or six well armed passengers every once in a while was so roadblocks and razor wire fences the sense here is that you are driving through a military camp and peaceful life he's only possible to be on the sponges. and he's going. as they explained to us. is where they keep former militants well trying to reintegrate them peacefully into normal life and these people.
5:53 am
that. previously. they are. member of the society. oh oh. this. body. these classrooms are used to teach civilian trades to forment terrorists things like world and i would work not too long ago all of these men were linked to groups like the taliban or al qaida extremists that form a knee years spread fear throughout the whole pakistani region.
5:54 am
that's what made these groups famous in pakistan this is another school in the shower in two thousand and fourteen six terrorists stormed the in and carried out a massacre killing one hundred forty nine people one hundred thirty two of them were children this was the last straw and the military operation it was serious down was launched soon afterwards the pakistani army decided not just a place to reach a fix trimmest but to completely rage again below population suspected of having militant clinks. can you ask them to come in with. you here is one unique xterra story this seventeen year old the youngest inmate in the center was nothing more than a kitchen helper in
5:55 am
a house where the taliban member lived he was just thirteen at the time and escaped of his own volition with the. first edition and thought. could be but like he probably he's young and he was a boy you probably would neighbor to refusing. so quality of the people it's not a salad to. me just. because he's grown. blunt and he was i don't know some. of. his might. according to this team of local say colleges former terrorists aren't just successfully rehabilitated but fall completely in love with the place where they
5:56 am
are held. they sure they'd no one has ever even attempted to escape. she didn't ask them we believe it was just on. the news with each of them should when you more than two that be it was dear. to me to my surprise those consequences. are suggesting that it was a lot more as a cover for comfort just ask. the machine yeah for a chance to put your stomach near select and. the closer we get to his wrist the greater the tension with feel and now we're away with bass many convoys of army trucks back with soldiers even though technically
5:57 am
become but elements of operation cutting strike is over. yes so we're at the freshest. you can see it was a gate over there this is the entrance to do. dangerous mission and as we were said there's there's so many military personnel over here you can see they're just coming from an incoming cars with the soldiers for our cars know it's me because i . guess of the right signs of normalising here it was serious time as you can see you did that motorcade of students go in back to the universe did but there is still semi she said concerned she can see the front of each vehicle there is a guard. but
5:58 am
what happened during the taliban rule what was with the university when caleb speak . was the worst situation i have i was also a good neighbor you work in his usa was good neighbor good well it and i'm with the thirty four credits he did for us goodness now you are smiling yes yes well i come first ok to do q. as a hostage or yes it's for how long we were fired it's a five day fire is their time what they get anybody i mean what they tell him his who are at the lowest with the other the i mean after he could tell you about you know how did you manage to escape you know read the help of a government with the help of phobia like it's going to be released just thank god i'm a yank wittingly thank goodness thanks very much like. he was a principal right. and so.
5:59 am
we're now actually fifty meters away from have been border and my mobiles know what keeps me in. and welcome to afghanistan. the commander of two local pakistani border troops greets people on their way home from afghanistan. when in two thousand and fourteen the pakistani army started the operation to liberate was yours town from terrorists locals thought life would be safer across the border in afghanistan. but why he had to go.
6:00 am
while they've been away the border that they know so well and have crossed so often in their lifetimes has changed a lot. we can even zoom to certain hours like this. for example. ok now you can see in. this room. what's really. well then. we can see even if i go yes. so now you can spot even the gold movements yes. the camera fits go to the border forts built in strategic high ground along the border some of them enjoy excellent views you can even see afghan villagers on the other side of these these village isn't safe. are you sure there is no. other. so
6:01 am
a lot of this is. because no one knows for sure what's happening on the admin side of the border everyone coming from. there has to undergo a thorough check. the border guards need to be certain of that fair dealing with a genial and local residents and not say a television militant in disguise it's not easy to tell the difference by appearance so low. we're. going to go up we go we're going to go out.
6:02 am
and sort of see. this is this is harlan kentucky. you could carry.
6:03 am
a coma any city with no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the coal miners if that's the. these people are survivors of a world disappearing before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in the million years i would see that and it's how it's happened. here that's not even by itself in the fact that. i didn't come to pakistan's food home. i. was there last. half.
6:04 am
that. there. were forming. to stand. there. was. life she was. murdered there. this children's home like many other facilities that we saw and was it was done functions under the direct supervision of the pakistani army it's clear that you've been brought here this is a model children's home perhaps even one of the best in the country but the main even the unique thing about this place is entirely different. whereas you parents. still has a will of necessity follow them are going to. be heaven brothers
6:05 am
or sisters do you buy. this is. what's with you. i mean my dad. did miss your mother but you were looking. each bit to be happy to have ten rules for the children each room along with six children a mother made also steeps so that they were comfortable to my. mother you when you're there is a mother to meet you so that children of mine are the only people who. know me. but certainly less than many as do you have your own children oh yes he said but. where we are and but have you ever you personal as a mother have you ever imagine yourself being a position of do women who give their kids. or pitches like
6:06 am
this is just how do you feel as if that was shallow just among one of them. when there's a thaw it would be to get to the bad people did you come to that beat out of me out of it will have been did i wish i missed the very last question i think i can feel your stress that's when my kids do they say here. so you know so far this was. so so far this was the hardest part because. we get used when we see our french we're keeping them i'd probably do this this is
6:07 am
a cute school just all of their parents but it's not the same for that particular or projects because of. because of the poverty of this area some other screw for prefer to. give some of their. children to today kind of our pensions. they say they can visit them for example. once a month. but still these kids have these kids have a mother it's customary for a woman who loses her husband to marry his brother when that happens her children are often seen as a burden they are extra mouse to feed these boys have similar stories they all lost their fathers and when their mothers found a new family they were simply backed off to an orphanage. that the eighth.
6:08 am
inch yes this is because they. were to keep this to make them understand how to source seed and how it grows are. formed. when you are you want to become to. have begun yet that. you are going to do you want to do with this year and. this is a replica terraced house where we were shown how just like the army does now the militants also cared about education for kids but in a very different way you said this is if you die room this is the room where the terrorists were training the suicide bombers let's get inside. so everything is decorated as it is already and have and this is like what you go in to see when you commit suicide bomb. interesting think people
6:09 am
a big beautiful it is here but you can mention the pictures of the lady with the covered face actually and all over stuff all other stuff like these. patients fake flour worse you know in a terrorist nest everything like they were trying to put into the mind of the young person you go in kill infidels go and commit suicide bomb and then that will be they have an were you will find yourself after death. woman and man across the border separately. it looks like looks like i might be able to see some latest it's a very rare. very rare opportunity for us because you know we when there is such a to do this is there. still we see i would go.
6:10 am
to meet you sir. when was the last time she had a conversation with a man out of the family. ok so. it is not. going to do not mix up. after that question the conversation turned to talk where it was good to know the soldiers had our backs but in other circumstances an interview like this could have meant serious trouble. women in waziristan were does empowered even before the spread of radical islam and their status hasn't improved much through the taliban were defeated but the man we spoke to on this border all hope that after returning home everything will be different better than before. and they're going to let my speech sound so unusual to them but you can see they are trying to do here
6:11 am
it is this much as they as they can even if i was ok with. kids from families that have passed the checks and left the camp can that would tend to reopen schools some of them have been built right inside military garrisons there are also dormitories for students who have to come from more remote villages . we arrive at one such dormitory late at night. it's mostly teenagers who leave here two to each room with a metal door that's bolted from the outside. occasionally they're a black house just one of the representations of war. what would you normally do what. i would you if you said oh yeah you have
6:12 am
a phone no i don't have you you're not alone no no no no oh really. most of these. when was the last time you went. on the internet. no i'm not used to it never know never you know. we do want to know how does it work yes. i mean. for example if you would get an access to the internet what would you when jasc their. invasion is. something that.
6:13 am
even after passing all the border checks the people who are returning to resume can go home straight away first they are brought here. it's now we're moving forward to this is a temporary camp. through these. fences to give. these. refugees will have a short stop to get refreshment straight it's. then move on to their houses. the resettlement camp was built and discarded by the military. they maintain that no one is still here against their will. the barbed wire and armed men in comfort fatigues are only there to protect the inmates themselves . did you have any a any occasions of someone from the outside world with trying to are you know going to feel you're out of but primarily because we have the freedom to secure. for the
6:14 am
right we're going to defense of security for their debate more liberty of ever dared to come and make anything wrong and defend. this camp has one important purpose above all others it plays the role of a giant filtration system that everyone wanting to return to his wrist must go through an old man came out to us from one of the towns after seen several soldiers he mediately reached for his id. no militant connections detect it this is the first time that you have such a identification card in your life. you know them and they would like their students who are accustomed to ancient tribal ways i.d.'s are a new concept. many still see themselves as part of try not to spare he says citizens and many see
6:15 am
their own army as outsiders. partly. by means of. the things you guys are pretty good at the minute you. get your growth going to the county seat is measured. by. and that was in the question of you good. for us know. when the taliban were. here it was a risk time was the life for you personally was good or bad no the taliban. did know what the taliban did it because by i mean i'm sure i could be the i don't want . to terrible but i thought i'd go. but i'm not worthy of a need taliban fighters in his village however. we will walk you know alaska.
6:16 am
and i mean. if there were no clashes a new tell it stand why you had to leave your house. you know when i could only. get there side because. you know who was shelling novelty of positive either that was the age of miracles that. i mean that it's on the top of that i go i'm not sure that. we were already heading for the cricket ground were and match was well underway when we were given the chance to talk to another local woman. has faced down spent five people looking at. how many kids she has. a school i don't think it. said i what it was that i could hear the. practical that. i wanted you know they could he could make sure that it was what it
6:17 am
was that you did i what do you guys i'm going to definitely. not be lord of the world or the next. day cricket match is the last part of a film. it also marked the visit. to see how. it's clear though that they will still have to adjust to their native. and for the time being that even the traditional dance can start until a man income a flush stands in the middle of the circle.
6:18 am
stock market manipulation by insiders and abetted by regulators like the f.c.c. all the f.c.c. is doing here is see why eg you can look up on urban dictionary what that means all they're trying to do is cover their tracks so that when the lawsuits happen they can say oh we were aware of it we warned against it we're on top of it but they are aiding and abetting the regulators or capture the regulators or venal the regulator to pay off. when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murderer i would prefer if me to the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the frightening thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict is
6:19 am
found innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people is terrifying the is just new really hasn't been that we hear even many of the times families want the death penalty to be a moment that the reason we have to keep the death penalty here is because that's what murder victims' families what that's going to give them peace it's going to give them justice and we come in and say. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way. i am and that enough that i am in the man. that.
6:20 am
i met that man. executive separation of children from. the u.s.
6:21 am
. twenty first of june. i saw weeks pass no since the biggest party on the planet kicked off in russia and there's still three more weeks of the great world cup to go for the details of day seven secateurs special studio in the very center of moscow. it's another beautiful site for you on this moscow evening i wish i could say the football has been so beautiful it might not have been the high scoring games of the but intriguing in a very different way on wednesday peter schmeichel on saddam hussein three rissoles
6:22 am
the last that was spain which he was still confidently predicted they were going to be the round but it was kind of scrappy that often in this match it was scrappy yes and very very exciting in the last fifteen minutes. and actually had the ball in the net that we all thought. but the linesman cable side and it was taking two of our decision thought it was one one and it was going to be it was going to be an even interesting more interesting and to the game did it. as i said on many occasions probably the best team in this tournament. and you know they played the game exactly the way they had to do it and watching the game was. tough luck for iran at the arena losing by one goal to spain with universal admission by experts and fans alike that they were very unlucky and they played very well known the last it seems that the team the manager are in somewhat of an upbeat mood i had of their
6:23 am
ultimate kalash their decisive clash against portugal the teams manager speaking at the press conference said that it's too early to rule use country out i think. it is not of the morning and it is not of much better than doing to me. so going to relation to you now to go to the wonderful players and also from our side. thank you very much what have you seen with the spanish players and spend spend in fourteen will be able to learn during the screen i managed to catch up with my old friend side of the striker of the national team who also played very well but was unlucky not to score in several occasions he also seems to be very positive i had of the ultimate clash against cristiano ronaldo sports you go. and but i don't like it today i hold against portugal we have. we must have
6:24 am
a little chance and i hope. we win and we do to price the spanish players obviously war in a very positive mood although admitted that this game was really tough to win credits iran for putting on such a performance and even more and iranian players and the manager also praised their fans do you know yes. yes the numbers we love how we're amazed by. these things sports people it's not something. we think is opportunity. and she and her team. to the right kind of was totally you know you know. so now it goes to the last game in this group which will decide who goes next to the last sixteen spain portugal or
6:25 am
iran it's a lot more clear cut in group a and this is how it stands now after today's result we saw a year ago i defeat saudi arabia no you know there's a lot of expectation if you're one might be despite easily up to. russia put. the saudis but he's very different just won't go next was it he didn't get it this virus claiming he's one hundred. years why and the result is europe why free and russia are free to which it is in the russian capital when that goal went in because it means that against a lot of printed an expectation rushworth what do you think of the euro coins in a state where they're definitely not firing on all set in this they they've got a lot of room to improve you can argue with two games six points that this is this is proper propose to fix if two of them in playing stuff you told and play your best game in the first first game of the second you don't peak in the group
6:26 am
phase you know just try to get through the group face and then you progress from there so they now have a free game which i think is very important they now have a game win where they can experiment a little bit and get the things that are working can't them right and it's not going to cost the most a game against russia do you think russia will do this experiment. i think it just says south is always changing what he thought was he was going to play with in these championships i think he's kind of kidding he's eleven right now. i don't know if russia has peaked and they've played at the highest level they've scored eight goals which is incredible in two games start added by a bios and i hope not i mean it it really is important that the whole host nation. stays in the tournament for the sake of the tournament and for the for the the atmosphere and for for the for the people is host to still have
6:27 am
a vested interest in this so. i just wanted to say you talking about you know did the vested interest in how successful host nation piece of a great atmosphere russia are all playing today he still had the holmes and some. coming from a friend. the atmosphere really. annoying me but now to what i actually really have is fear remains still fun to state and that's just one of the questions about the atmosphere here that was put to the sepp blatter and put it very formally chosen said blatter who said that we kate partridge in our studio earlier did you manage to get much sleep with all the revelers action the streets of moscow you see of today victory and demanded to take three of russia. until four o'clock in the morning a doctor tells her it's impossible to just leave that up to the source could put clothes on the floor. nurse at the arrival this second victory call for russian tea
6:28 am
in qualified to for the next round and everything is over now it is that she has made it very very open to a very open going pay and it's always a good thing isn't it when the host nation as a world cup has such a good start for me this was the element to this was the best start ever because it's my eleventh's world cup. i was very actively. against the first match of the organization committee of the of the host and that's important than just taken even more and now it's all well it's all well needs some says central for the whole competition this tournament is already proving that football indeed is a unifying force after the shot of a fan celebration when viral. it
6:29 am
was an amazing experience i think a lot of people are saying it was because of the they were helping me to watch the match but we were actually just celebrating for the opening ceremony all these guys i just met and we were celebrating dancing and all of a sudden if i was there. up in the air it's crazy. but. i used to play relief able bodied basketball before my before my accident after my accident part of my rehab was to play wheelchair basketball just to try it out as soon as i played it i fell in love with the game completely. i think the atmosphere over here is amazing people are great everyone is so friendly you can you can really feel the love from everyone around you with. yourself and.
6:30 am
i think every obstacle is an opportunity for you to step up and just enjoy life more and. live life to the max. of course for a short plays out in two weeks but two of the games as well improve see play australia game that i will be watching and then france take on australia. and be good into the looking patriotic ritual you can have to put on a very fast washed tonight. that's on today because when we go in tomorrow but then mccain's already been played. breaking breaking will set up a t.v. set that yeah ok this mike i want to be tough but she had about their kicks off in a few hours in samoa. democritus three points from their first game but they're
6:31 am
straining to do their best from prove this standing in group c. . so for the other cities hosting world cup games across russia moscow is a hub for many of the traveling fans and one particular street has become a beacon for the supporters from around the globe. and it hits the official. line for moscow a city house more than ten million people and i cannot believe how the world cup was able to reach across the map of landmarks in the city if you thought it was the kremlin possibly right square or the are bad street i'll have to tell you that this time the wrong. place to go in moscow might. just be that good is going. to satisfy the french where will the top of the box because those people because come on it was funny guy. like we treat the streets of the like someone i don't know on him you know you come and say
6:32 am
joe joe. so how do you find this street with the line i'll show you. now trust me you'll feel it when we get. this very tempting to stay on the right square but here we have to make a life. to . make clothes or the street. never even. see here because now there are no empty spaces i'm told and that's. really.
6:33 am
the. to me this. i think. that was part of our. i. think. this is funny small agency that turned out in force the other team traded
6:34 am
the special based on a famous russian song. ok i say. you know what a journey they've had when we should be hearing that child later today when argentina faces croatia in nizhny novgorod. coast as a marine you know shared his thoughts on coming much. grisha is a team with some talented experienced players have seen the best clubs in the world
6:35 am
i don't think in the past three years they've had enough of illusion for the next generation but they have still a group of players especially in the midfield players of the best we have in the world that is i wasn't in the. but i think through asia has the team is capable to give up to give them a difficult match but much as a group d. which has been branded the group of death because of the strong teams in argentina nigerian croatia all where you see that theology entity and fans are some of the most loyal we've got up with a couple of them. no time for going to get sick getting off a sign of. a check watch. out for your product we have. an hour. to gain
6:36 am
a gauge of. the game to see if you can look forward to it. which i. found that. i was. very fond of because i said it's not enough and you put him on the i don't think it will but i shall become a go about the. possibility of a. move to a government. that's out of money. if he continues to want to have facial. michael nicholas sarkozy are shall you. go why do you feel about who's. got it on t.v. and about sort of. knowing i have. no clue.
6:37 am
how to. you know get. you know me and people watch the audience up on the reality of where they were to. show that it was you know they got to feel the element that they had a big. belly out in front of me. for going after him for among the people most of the public road is you know a little bit off the top of that i think given that if you ever try to play the same bridges of all the people of other picked up but you could. also play today from peru it's expected to be a tough going to the peruvian team if france ranks first in group c. proves at the bottom of that list they go to face to face encounter a bit later now that's on the march two thousand kilometers east of moscow.
6:38 am
now the places where the fans can watch the match ranged from those fans and have been talking about the bars and restaurants no harvey takes a look at some of the hot spots in russia's northern capital next simply to. show you know professional. love is the key so how they get international kick
6:39 am
about here i got very lucky that we got football fans from all over the world we got russian. gentleman here from poland this is rough now he explains why i'm doing this report today because the fans see how they got tickets to watch the games he st petersburg be watching poland it will most. folded up but he still wants to see st petersburg see the hermitage see the sights so what does he do when he wants to leave the games they head to the polls pubs restaurants around the city games being shown live everywhere is the best place to go is the question. first choice it's no secret. chose it because it. raises its feet. those who are in the sunshine it's family friendly and there's a great atmosphere and it's going to be the place to enjoy.
6:40 am
after the excitement of all the football clues to be located just outside the fun so you could find relax the gentle pull price and appendix of the no. but maybe some of the sunshine fresh ever since you liking it so a little strange but i understand so let's head to auction to go to the pub. this is the way to enjoy the world cup football with a beer some chips. some salty is expiring global cosmopolitan here. but singularly interesting because there's a clue in the night it's called the hundred yards beyond us because it's long. and it needs to descend on some little. bit misleading because it's not a hundred yards long it's three hundred meters long slow going to stay in the world
6:41 am
are you having. this is not the final i think but. it's an odd thing. was. i mean. to come up and say some of the cars on the day this guy he's a past time he's giving not coming should. keep you. and he's percy good this is the place for all the for string t.v. commentators i'm looking at you know the guys the ones who just never shuts up while the game is on. what if you don't know who the play is how do you deal with that problem i said to be dilatory if i don't remember the name of the player i just called him a kitten. so that was it sounds. thank you jim please make it past the bowl so
6:42 am
if you want to go into a minute i thank you but never going to. the second of all the next to leave the new polling site since five when some political debate last year anybody does it bring the food i really recommend to the show comes it but even to the polling most of you would think that people in. the middle east would think the same. place the bush position so many. snow season listen this is pretty much the same on the way i am paying you a phone call you really champions league could not use any patience limits just getting such my league a. good day's work there for me
6:43 am
a little football later of course more the big will do stories off the breaking pleading donald trump to public pressure eventually saw the executive order now to stop those children being taken from undocumented immigrant families at the border . stock market manipulation by insiders. bet it by regulators like to see. here is see why. on urban dictionary what that means all they're trying to do is cover their tracks so that when the lawsuits happen they can say oh we were aware of it we warned against it we're on top of it but they are aiding and abetting the regulators or captured the regulators or venal the regulators to pay off.
6:44 am
i don't good morning president trump has signed an executive order the whole ting the controversial policy of migrant families separation since april more than two thousand children have been removed from the parents of illegally crossed into the u.s. but could have strong very strong borders but we're going to keep the families together i didn't like the site where the feeling of families being separated is a problem that's gone on for many years as you know through many administrations and the cases the family separation of the border and the previous administrations
6:45 am
to critics now pointing out that trumps made this controversial project is all too common his so-called zero tolerance policy has been met with a massive right to some officials involved have been targeted by activists. trump administration officials have been sending babies and other young children to at least three three tender age shelters in south texas wars and medical providers because. i know we're not nazi germany all right but we need be careful not to move in that direction this is not who we are in america he is taking america to a dark and ugly place is there anything you wish the senator can do those who selectively use the bible to justify this cruelty are ignoring
6:46 am
a central tenet of christianity. and in an unlikely turn of events the issues takes on a religious dimension to caleb maupin has got more. u.s. attorney general jeff sessions created a firestorm when he justified the policy of separating immigrant children from their parents by invoking a bible passage from the book of romans that was signed. here to the apostle paul and his clear and wise command in romans thirteen to the government because god is a dying or dying the go for it is for says the mainstream media had a field day don't break god into this first of all i don't think god picked jew because i don't worship what amir puton and the only thing in the bible close to this is a king threatening to cut a baby in two and he was joking so it's not a lol and also the bible isn't
6:47 am
a government documents from my policy perspective he wants will be starting green eggs and ham saying we must keep children in a box we must keep them with the faux should we really be surprised about biblical justification for policies last year it was revealed that the white house is holding weekly bible study classes the classes are led by ralph drole injure the founder of capital ministries based in washington d.c. capital ministries has been operating for over two decades preaching evangelism to elected public servants since our founding in one thousand nine hundred six our vision has not changed to evangelize elected officials and lead them toward maturity in christ it turns out the man advise in the white house on matters related to the almighty is a former basketball player with a bachelor's degree in geography now he has no background in public policy or political science but he does offer his expertise on spiritual matters to those in power they are so teachable they're so noble their soul learned like jeff sessions
6:48 am
he'll go out the same to teach him something else see him do it on camera the list of officials who have participated in ralph's classes is rather impressive you've got vice president mike pence you've got secretary. that occasion betsy divide us you've got secretary of state mike pompei oh and you've got energy secretary rick perry all of them have sat down with pastor ralph to learn about the good book and mike pence has even been hosting the classes the regular thing will be hosted by mike pence on wednesday many americans are horrified that evangelical ministers are influencing policy and even getting classes in the white house they think why are these religious kooks influencing the fate of the free world but there are americans who feel the opposite i think ministers priests religious beliefs have been in the white house forever that's the problem with this country you people have allowed religion to become a part of political policy. your religion i don't care what it is it's no business
6:49 am
being in government believe in church separation of church and state i believe religion should be kept separate from politics i'm all for a separation of church and state absolutely i don't think it should be in schools i don't think that it should really be on our money anymore i mean there's there are a lot of things that i think we should separate absolutely trump did come forward and put a stop to the controversial family separation policies you may have cooled his critics on that but in the process he seems to have opened up a new divide a divide about his administration's newly announced policy of invoking the bible to justify its decisions cable mop and art see new york. times europe struggling with its own group crisis students in the spanish city of l.a. county have been relocated from the publicly owned accommodation to make way for refugees who were on board the rescue ship aquarius that ship was earlier turned away by italy in multan sparking a big diplomatic standoff it was carrying more than one hundred migrants rescued
6:50 am
off the coast of libya spain then stepped in and the humanitarian ship eventually docked invalid c.-a meantime to the mother of one of the students who was forced to leave says it was unfair to kick out her son who always paid rent she says while adding that it's very doubtful that the spanish prime minister would leave his residence to accommodate the migrants and he's not the only one upset by the move. it's refugees coming here we know long enough and what next where do they get it on the second the whole full support almost government you that they won't see helping people is great on them but not when the country is in crisis so notable in their own body i do believe it is a good thing to shelter people like me but he victims students especially during exams is wrong would annoy you that this is curable that this dude had some they received twenty four hours notice as had enough time to find another place to stay . but if the money people who are closer to me their homes and i don't think
6:51 am
there's been as an agent to welcome so many refugees it's sad that their heart is anything this huge and they pay their rent and care bad as they did it just that there's not a bit to this to authorities valencia's said the students were offered alternative places to stay and didn't have to pay anything. well i was there up so far keep in touch with all the football headlines were across the world cup on our site r.t. dot com huge section a day dedicated to bringing the best sport such as it happens they got to your number one choice or at the tournament it's kevin zero in the smalling saying thank you for watching. greetings and salutations more than words it's ones actions that truly defied who
6:52 am
they are and what lies at the center of their soul this is true for individuals as well as nation. and what it burst i thought was a brilliant bit of self referential soul searching by us ambassador nikki haley in on the and the united states' role in the un human rights council human rights abusers continue to serve on and be elected to the council the world's most inhumane regimes continue to skate scrutiny and the council continues to politicizing and scapegoating of countries which positive human rights records in an attempt to distract from the users and their ranks thousand exiles surgeon but it turned out to just be her just remake you mousing that the united states would no longer be a part of the usa where human rights quote therefore as we said we would do a year ago if we did not see any progress the united states is officially withdrawing from the un human rights council. yes in the equal parts shocking
6:53 am
ironic tragic ill timed and ultimately be not that surprising turn given our track record and friendships around the world the united states will no longer be sitting in on human rights meetings at the united nations this move comes of course during a time in which the world has been watching our fumbling president into hapless political parties allow abusive gungho mall cops and border security customs rip apart families at our southern border they allow our supposed allies use our hardware and logistics to bomb humanitarian hospitals and starving people in yemen all while we defend our best as body as army shoots dead on arm protesters journalists and medics along the israel gaza border and human rights is something we believe in needless to say many were not pleased with this move by the united states abby maximun president of oxfam america called the move shortsighted and representative barbara lead the democrat out of california told the media quote
6:54 am
this decision serves no purpose other than to weaken our leadership on the world stage and isolate us from our allies. but there is this move so bad and disgraceful let's find out by watching the whole. what to deal with the. real that would. be the bottom. or the like you know i got. it. wrong or on the watch of the harks i am tyrrel but for and on top of the lists slipped out. what are your thoughts on the united states leaving the un human rights council is it is terrible and disgusting as
6:55 am
a lot of people are making it out to be. no i think it's better of. making hey we in this entire administration not have anything to do with the human rights council i would like them to just stay away from the united nations and how this is not perfect organization but it came out of you know stopping nazi is zero and working together and the truth is all nikki haley has done the entire time this is and there is grandstand about israel which if you're going to run for president eventually is probably a good idea because it makes sure the big donors are there i mean she had one reason one reason only for her to stand up there and talk about all the abuse human rights abusers please we were you know the president was yucking up to some of those human rights abusers in saudi arabia with glowing balls and plans about all these wonderful things are going to saudi arabia women can drive cars now it's ok they're totally their records but the new toyota risked everything else oh yeah that would be had a new ball totally fun they could they can drive if they have
6:56 am
a permit i've been so sure that's ok though so you know now you know and when i look at this i kind of part of my brain is like. realistically when you look at not our intentions but when you look at our actual actions since the united states have a record that allows them to sit on a council pretty well. know what is what you are there some remember we were in on it because i want to be on the sons of iraq and obama brought us back on the floor and with the idea that we can help from the inside and he came in with. me was a lawyer who was not good enough and doesn't tell us we're amazing that's a brilliant. person a little more southern accent i think you go. what's interesting though is the reaction across the board from different groups yeah. johnson. is the director at the human rights watch told the new york times that quote all this administration seems to care about when it comes to the council is
6:57 am
defending israel and the trumpet ministrations complaint is that the council's biased and flawed they've just made it more so that support is the only thing she brings forward if the only thing she was doing was that one issue but she could have done something else and now she's going to leave so what she's doing is leaving israel according to our own logic in a lurch with no one standing up for them in the us. she says rove is so terrible to that but. you know if somebody was super excited about this yeah bestest buddy. on twitter israel's president benjamin netanyahu said the u.s. decision to leave this prejudiced body is unequivocal statement that enough is enough israel welcomes the american announcement enough is enough is enough is enough and that's what we keep hearing but never anything nobody ever does anything wrong you can only talk about it on their terms you don't talk about this on their terms. of what i mean when i look good actions like the it's like the ultimate example of like a little kid so you know it's like oh oh well you know right you know basically
6:58 am
running away from our responsibility yes we should be sitting on the council because if you truly want to change things you have to be involved in things. just run away because people don't want to listen to you and they want to hear your ideas it's the cheap way out it's the childish way out and that's exactly what haley and trump and the rest of them are doing when they want to push away from the world table yes there's a lot wrong at the u.n. yes there's a lot wrong with some of the other countries on that you know you've written human rights council but you don't pull yourself out of the fight you keep moving forward you continue to fight. more and more young people are showing an infinite affinity for communicating through visual references which is why recent collaboration between archaeologists and digital linguists to create hieroglyphs you could text is so interesting but there are more than a mo g.'s i recently spoke with world renowned egyptologist ilian khan and pasadena california and he explained to me how looking back to the ancients and learning
6:59 am
their language of storytelling through hieroglyphs is much easier than you might think. learning it. opens a lot of doors for you it's like being literature or not. it's like not being able to read and then all of a sudden all these books are right there and you learn how to read and then you can read it except the books are walls and ancient egyptian temples and once that happens if you want to learn how to lives you then go to egypt and look at these walls and everything changes because you see them in a completely to feedlots looking at pictures anymore because most people look at engine different hogan ifs and look at them as him oh geez. this son that loves the water and then there's a guy standing next to a cow right but that's not what it is it's a perfect language which i mean a perfect language. ancient egyptian came and all the
7:00 am
royals. wanted one thing and one thing. to keep their memory alive to keep their glory alive for the rest of time. when they made up a language when based used that language of ancient egyptian paragraphs they were very strict about making sure that the language can be explained the language can be translated to anyone to all land any foreigner anyone that comes in the future they made it for you they made it for me so we can understand their glory it's very selfish and narcissist air it could be but really that's why that language is actually simpler than you think it is they didn't just write a word they would write the word with the ancient gyptian letters and then put right next to the word at what we call demonstrates. an image of that what that
7:01 am
word is it's like baby proofed it's amateur proof you've used. you know chinese. a couple of words here and there if you try to go learn ancient gyptian lives it's easy in that learning chinese. food there you go study the past in order to better better understand your future as you rose say which is very fascinating because i mean look you know when you get into the breakdown of ira good books and you get into the study of ancient egypt as you were telling me about talking with him he said what we really know about like ten percent of you know that he was saying that only and there's so much i can't wait to show you guys all the stuff we learned here the people i talk to they're at it with the by the way i was lucky enough to go to. the world joe's in its final share don't worry lots of false stuff coming but one of these are talking rummy romani was he was talking about only ten percent but we've only discovered out what we really see as ten percent of what is left of agent egypt has been discovered i mean some of that's
7:02 am
either gone or under understand so even he said it's there if so much it's like the oceans and how important it is and i've always like look to you when you look at an ancient civilization like egypt you say we don't you know like you say we've only discovered really ten percent of what you know civilization had to offer the world or for your knowledge that we could learn from them yeah that opens up all lot of interesting possibilities which is the key to getting into understanding that ancient civilization to better learn about how we maybe preserve our current civilization you know the mistakes that they made moving forward things of that nature yes and it's actually interesting is as a language as a written language as a storytelling device it's pretty it's pretty brilliant you know people we kind of understand once the rosetta stone came along we understand really what was going on so you have three different kinds of hieroglyphs there's your first lesson and i think that's so hieroglyph comes to the greek adjective hieroglyph because of this cliff because this is a compound of two greek words meaning sacred and i carve
7:03 am
a grave so sacred cravings are holy great holy words so the basic service you have fallen in grams. that represent a specific sound so it would be like this specific thing would be more or less or whatever. enneagram to represent ideas or explain. certain represents specific gods and then misuse is called said demonstratives which are sort of hieroglyphics versions of punctuation so it'll be next to it saying this is this kind of word or this is this thing but what's most interesting is it wasn't the language of the people no no it actually truly was the language of the elites so when you when you're staring at the you know when you're reading the books and you're looking at that it's actually only the most elite of egyptians could read this like royals nobles prescribes could read her books these only made up about three percent of egypt's total population at the time so they were like the top
7:04 am
three percent rest of the ninety seven percent was you know fighting for rights i have no idea and without them here we are learning as you know we are taking back what was until you know something of believes that we were meant only for them and their glory and now we sort of take it back to learn and that other ninety percent and then out there is probably the stories of the ninety seven percent so we're going to we're making strides we've looked and we've taken you know we've knocked down two percent there's only one percent now that's the world back then it was three things you know progress progress but no i mean this is one of those fasting things i can't wait to see what you've got in store for us coming up with these with these specials not get out there early and going to be really good of the tip of the iceberg art as we go to break watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered the facebook and twitter sphere full show and r t v dot com coming up sean stone talks collusion with bestselling author and speaker nomi prins of the fire and then we find out where all the psychopaths live they'll probably not be surprised to watch in the us.
7:05 am
join me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. this system is rigged hoc watchers that has long been
7:06 am
a eureka like cry from activists historians and politicians courageous enough to take a long hard honest look at just what goes on behind the scenes in the world's financial and banking systems the systems that in a capitalist society control are very livelihood since the financial crisis of two thousand and eight bestselling author and speaker nomi prins is one of those people she's stared into the economic abyss that is modern capitalism and produced her new book collusion how central bankers rigged the world recently she sat down with watching the hot zone johnstone to discuss her new book on the collusion between wall street and me and i did states federal reserve take a listen. let's talk about your new book collusion. you get into the central banking system which in the united states the federal reserve many people would charge the federal reserve's is not only a private bank ultimately it's not really. federally controlled or even monitored because the feds never seriously been audited correct that's correct the fed itself
7:07 am
is kind of like a corporation it has a board of governors but that's really equivalent to a board of directors and its members are the private banks that it is supposed to regulate and the way that membership has worked since the inception of the from the federal reserve act of one nine hundred thirty thirteen through today is that these private banks have shares in the federal reserve in the bigger they are the more shares they have used to be reports that came out exactly as to what bank has how many shares and what their percentage of ownership is but those stopped in one nine hundred forty one so we just have to guess so we know that j.p. morgan chase has a larger share for example than some small local bank wherever and that's how the participation works in terms of how that relates to the government aside from the fact that it's located in the middle of washington d.c. right now. the white house and all the other sort of power buildings of our government establishment they are appointed the heads of the board of the governors the chair of the fed is appointed by the president it is confirmed or rejected by
7:08 am
congress so there is some connection from a political perspective as to that person who is appointed and whether or not they accepted by congress there's never been an appointee that has been rejected by congress so there's a political connection but there's also that banking corporate type of construction of course and so i mean considering that the dollar bills that we use the currency has federal reserve note written on it essentially it's a private it's a tube it's creating the currency but our entire society is operating on the well and it's more than that they don't create the actual physical dollars that gets created within the treasury department but what they do create and what they can electronically create or i call it conjure in my book is digits basically for the private banks under their purview so the idea of the reserve is that these private banks are supposed to reserve money have emergency sort of capital with the federal reserve the certain amounts that they're supposed to have based on their size in the risk and so forth and the federal reserve basically issues no it's against that
7:09 am
that capital and so the idea is if there's an emergency situation the fed can tap into its pool of reserves it's like an insurance policy for banks and sort of sorted out the reality is as we've seen in the last ten years since the financial crisis of two thousand and eight is the federal reserve hasn't just been using the bank's own reserves to help the banks it's been conjuring all this additional money out of nowhere there aren't even physical dollar bills that connect into it it's literally like trying to flee digitise for banks to have more money in their pocket in return for assets that they then provide the federal reserve so they get the cash they can bomb assets to the federal reserve the federal reserve now x. not just as a reserve or even a private company it's a hedge fund portfolio manager now right so basically the loophole. in the constitution about congress being able to coin money so basically the treasury technically coins the money but essentially is the federal reserve that's behind the currency you're actually being. issued in a sense that basically the federal reserve dictates ok i would expand the supply of
7:10 am
money in the economy correct that's what i have expanded that money supply extremely. exponentially exponentially aggressively since since the financial crisis in order to be able to liquify or to keep our private banks solvent so it's really been one of the biggest subsidy programs for our private banking system since the inception of the country and what the federal reserve does by conjuring this money and yes getting around sort of old school method of physical coinage or physical money is that we're not trying to gauge we're digitizer they can just basically do this with a flip of a switch with a tap of a of a keyboard or effectively just a computerized program to to issue money and so they do have meanings they decide to level this money they decide that the costs are interest rate for money based on their old dual mandate of unemployment versus inflation but the reality is they suffered a whole bunch of money into the financial system on the narrative that somehow it would be on land into the real economy it would somehow spur real productive growth
7:11 am
and get back around to the sort of vestiges of what we need in terms of development and so forth that never really happened it really stayed within the banking system for their own purposes ok so let's get into one of the real purposes of the banking banking sectors use of this money that's being created by the way what the collusion of the name of your book with the clues it seems to me is strikes begins with this relationship of the private banks that basically are the shareholders of the majority hold owners of the federal reserve itself that are basically people beneficiaries so it's essentially like they're they're benefiting from the increase of the coin in the quantum easing effect right of basically issuing more currency that's going from the fed into the private banks. coffers but then where does that go what are the private banks really doing with this money all this quantum easing this big. since two thousand and eight so one of the things they do is they buy their own stock that's been that's been the use of the last couple of years that the fed is supposed to give them permission or deny them permission to major banks as to how much they can pay their shareholders and dividends how much they can buy
7:12 am
of their own stock but what's happened is because they've had all this extra money and they haven't had any strings attached to it like you have to go and help people restructure their mortgages or you have to give a certain amount to small businesses there's no idea of sort of limitations on the money that they've been given so cheaply from the fed so they do things with it like speculate like create more derivatives like that or combine more packages of toxic assets this time around they're based on corporate loans last time around they were on mortgage loans and they buy their own stock for example last year the vice chair of the f.t. i see the federal deposit insurance corporation that was created to back people's deposits to give them a sure you know if there's another financial crisis will still be able to get their money thomas hoenig found that ninety nine percent of the profits of banks last year ninety nine percent that would be like all of the profits went into buying their own shares with the permission of the fed so these are the kinds of places that this money has gone up one point during the last ten years that they've been getting all this money from the fed our private banks they had increased their cash
7:13 am
pools of about four by about four hundred percent so they had four times as much cash sitting around doing nothing not helping their customers not helping the real economy just from the excess that the fed had given them in this whole quantitative easing process and so the collusion yes is with the private banks the biggest private banks in any one country in the jurisdiction of that central bank so the u.s. jurisdiction of the fed over the u.s. banks like j.p. morgan chase bank of america goldman sachs and in europe other banks for example e.c.b. european central bank has jurisdiction over dortch of bank or u.b.s. the swiss bank and so forth so all of the biggest banks yes have colluded with the central banks but the central banks have also polluted with each other to keep the overall level of money available to these larger banks or larger corporations that they still. and there are various countries motivated by extra cash basically as opposed to using that money and any other purpose or simply not giving it to them right let's talk about the role of the central banks basically in terms of the
7:14 am
overall relationship i mean really when we talk about the g. seven meeting sure the presidents will show up and kiss and shake hands but give the day they seem to be a very tremendous financial implication and sort of motivation to a lot of the deals being made there from these major companies countries but. what strikes me is that we're talking about trade war school going on and basically a lot of we've seen that already with major sanctions on massive countries like russia that's ongoing iran obviously this new round of sanctions we're looking at and people talking about potential trade wars between even countries as large as the u.s. and china which are the two really global economies so what is that really mean what is the motivation behind this new drive towards trade wars that we're seeing even as far as you know brics it is concerned in the idea of. you know britain slightly isolating itself from europe and taking a step back you know what is that really what is the implication for the global economy so first how do we get to that point and that implication i think that
7:15 am
since the financial crisis when the fed went kind of crazy and forms of quantitative easing it manufactured conjure four point five trillion dollars worth of money to buy u.s. government debt from banks to buy toxic mortgage assets from banks it owns twenty six percent of the mortgage market because of having bought these toxic assets from banks that allows them to do all things we're just talking about throughout the world this twenty one trillion dollars of money that has been conjured by effectively the g. seven central banks in order to get to their private banking system and to give the appearance of elevating their economy what does that also do that also allows them to potentially have outside countries to that g seven like china say look you know fed us. you created a financial crisis back in two thousand and eight that crisis was created because of your recklessness your lack of regulation whatever we don't want to necessarily go through that again so one of the results of the financial crisis that was the beginning of trade wars was that china for example said you know what we need our
7:16 am
currency to be more prevalent on the world stage than just a dollar why because we don't want to risk another financial crisis that becomes global that we get sucked into because you can't control your banks and this was exactly i mean i'm paraphrasing it it's in my book in collusion what the head of the people's bank of china and central bank in china was saying from the get go of the financial crisis so was the head of the central bank of mexico at the time gammer ortiz so was the head of the central bank of brazil at the time so there's all of these outside countries to the g. seven that were very concerned about this policy of just infusing a sort of bum financial system with cheap money and as a result they started developing trade alliances with each other and one of the things for example that the u.s. can't stepped away from both under obama at the end of his term and then as a promise on the third day of his taking office under presidents trump term was it was the t.p. pete was the transpacific partnership which was you know is a trade alliance between a lot of different countries including japan including china including mexico
7:17 am
including countries that we do trade with but are now negotiating trade deals with each other as a result of this moving away or want to move away from from the u.s. policy from the dollar is the main reserve currency. dr ryan murphy at southern methodist university in texas is not the ryan murphy who creates the terrifying. american horror story but he didn't find something interesting but not that surprising in this state by state breakdown of where psychopaths actually live in the real life united states using data from a twenty thirty study that tried to estimate regional differences and personalities according to dr murphy's research which is awaiting peer review the district of columbia is measured to be far more like. in any individual state in the country of course not all psychopaths are murderers the serial killers most of them are totally able to function in society but they do struggle with things like having a callous unconcern for the feelings of others they're overconfident have short
7:18 am
attention spans and are instance here in their speech politicians pundits t.v. news personalities love ias and the corporate shell masters who pull all of their strings find a cozy home here in our capital. seems like the fifty states just aren't sending us their best people yeah it's so funny so funny well that does not surprising the thirst for power and attention that you find like all over the streets of washington who send out you know i mean you want to just like time talk about their own opinions and stuff like that and have people watch you know every day and deal why people would do that no idea that's very odd to me functioning mollenhauer in love with yourself you have to be to get on t.v. and talk about you know where. are the others are so if there are ten for member one in this world we're not told robust enough so i tell you all i love you i have a tight rope and it's out of the law let's keep on watching those fox never great
7:19 am
day about the. next as a financial survival guide. let's learn. let's say i'm not sure i get your theories on greece banks have to fight. thank you for. the story that's true well actually very. little.
7:20 am
in the headlines this morning spain tops around one nearly in the final game of day seven of the world cup here in russia. i. thank the streets in central moscow becomes the official heart of the world cup and crowds of people. because more than three zero three. zero zero. and it will do to small and president signs an executive order holding the separation of children from parents who illegally cross into the u.s. move comes after a massive outcry and the vision on the issue of american suicide. hello it's just
7:21 am
turned nine am here in moscow this sunday twenty first of june other great day for football than you watching r.t. with me kevin knowing. it's. great to have you with us so than a week has no past since the biggest party on the planet kicked off here in russia still three more weeks of the world cup to go through all the events and details of day seven let's go to our special studio in the very heart of. it's another beautiful site for you on this moscow evening i wish i could say the football has been so beautiful not a bit high scoring games have been a bit intriguing in a very different way on wednesday peter schmeichel on sunday was saying three results the last that was spain which he stopped confidently predicted they were going to be the round but it was kind of scrappy and often in this match scrappy
7:22 am
yes and very very exciting in the last fifteen minutes. and actually had the ball. in there we all thought that they put the two lines when the cable side and it was taken to evolve the system we thought it was one one and it was going to be it was going to be an even interesting more interesting and to the game being did it. as i said on many occasions probably the best team in this tournament. and you know they played the game exactly the way they had to do it and watching the game was. tough luck for iran at the cousin arena losing by one goal to spain with universal admission by experts and fans alike that they were very unlucky and they played very well known to last it seems that the team the manager in somewhat of an upbeat mood i had of their ultimate kalash their decisive clash against portugal they teams' manager speaking at the press conference said
7:23 am
that it's too early to rule his contrie out i think. we decided from the morning we did stand a much better than during the game. so congratulations to you know to the wonderful play is enough so from our side. thank you very much for everything with the spanish players and spend spend in fourteen will be able to learn during the screen i managed to catch up with my old friend side of the striker of the national team who also played very well that was unlucky not to score in several occasions he also seems to be very positive i had the ultimate clash against cristiano ronaldo sports you go. and but i don't like it today i hope against portugal we have. we must have a little chance and i hope. we win and
7:24 am
we do to price the spanish players obviously war in a very positive mood although admitted that this game was really. tough to win credit to iran for putting on such a performance and even as men and iranian players and the manager also praised their fans do you find it easy. yes the numbers we love how we're amazed by. these things sports people it's not simply i mean people having this opportunity to come and she had her team go. to the pound because you know you know. so now it goes to the last game in this group which will decide who goes next to the last sixteen spain portugal or iran it's a lot more clear cut in group a and this is how it sounds now after today's result
7:25 am
we saw a year ago i defeat saudi arabia no you know there's a lot of expectation that you one might fall for you despite easily after the russians put five past the saudis but he's very different just won't go next was it i think when we didn't get it this far as playing golf on his one hundred appearance for years why and the result is you're going three and russia or three which is in the russian capital when that goal went in because it means that against a lot of printout of an expectation russia are three what do you think of the euro coins in this case. definitely not firing on also then this the they've got a lot of room to improve you can argue with two games six points that this is this is proper protocol to fix if tournament playing stuff you don't play your best game in the first the first game of the six you don't peak in the group face you know just try to get through the group face and then you progress from there so
7:26 am
they now have a free game which i think is very important they now have a game where they can experiment a little bit and get the things a. working get them right and it's not going to cost so much the game against russia do you think russia will do this experiment. i think it's a sense of this always changing what he thought was he was going to play with in these championships i think he's kind of kidding he's eleven right now. i don't know if russia has peaked and they've played at the highest level if scored eight goals which is incredible in two games start ever by a bios which i hope not i mean it it really is important that the whole host nation . stays in the tournament for the sake of the tournament and for the for the the atmosphere and for for for for people as hosed to still have a vested interest in this so. i just wanted to say you talking about you know the
7:27 am
vested interest in how successful host nation kicks of a great atmosphere russia are all playing today you still hear the whole mess and some chancing coming from from from down there the atmosphere really. is annoying me a bit now to what actually in the hemisphere remains is still fun testing and that's just one of the questions about the atmosphere here that was put to the sepp blatter and put it very formally chosen said blatter who said that we kate partridge in our studio earlier did you manage to get much sleep with all the revelers action the streets of moscow in the city of today big tree and domestic big three of russia. until four o'clock in the morning into a hotel that supposedly does the tough to vs could put clothes on the floor to witness at the arrival of this second victory of the russian team qualified for the next round and everything is open it is that he's made it very very open to a very open group a and it's always a good thing isn't it when the host nation as
7:28 am
a world cup has such a good start for me this of those elements or is this was the big. start ever because it's my eleven sold. ten of those in my very active here and my guests have to do first so much of the overnight coming. up to host that's important than just taken even more and now it's all well and it's all well needs some says central for the whole competition this tournament is already proving that football indeed is a unifying force after the shot of a fan celebration went viral. it was an amazing experience i think a lot of people are saying you know it was because. they were helping me to watch
7:29 am
the match but we were actually just celebrating for the opening ceremony all these guys i just met and we were celebrating dancing and all of a sudden i find myself up in the air it's crazy. i used to play with a body basketball before my before my accident after my accident part of my rehab was to play wheelchair basketball just to try it out as soon as i played it i fell in love with the game completely. the atmosphere over here is amazing and people are great everyone is so friendly you can you can really feel the love from everyone around you and say to yourself if you look. like. that think every obstacle is an opportunity for you to step up and just enjoy life more and. live life to the max.
7:30 am
of course pressure plays out into the woods but to other games as well and group see ten month play australia game that i will be watching of course in france take on australia. and be good into the looking patriotic ritual you can have to put on a very fast washed tonight that's on today because when we go in tomorrow but then mccain's already been played. breaking breaking will set up a t.v. set well played a small come up in for a tough time the much we heard about they keep yourself in just a few hours and five in some mara denmark already has three points from their first game but the australians will do bad best when they study. also play for as they are from and proof so far on number one on the before in group c.
7:31 am
ranking they go face to face and classroom but later that's about two thousand kilometers east of moscow. with eleven cities hosting world cup games across russia moscow is a hub for many of the travelling fans one particular streets become a beacon for the supporters for around the globe and he put trying to hitch the unofficial next. i'm from moscow
7:32 am
a city of more than ten million people and i cannot believe how the world cup was able to retrieve all the map of latin marks in the city if you thought it was the kremlin possibly right square or the arbat street i have to tell you that this time the wrong. place going to moscow. the south side of france where we saw the because once you got on the books but got. like. three streets and the like someone i don't. know said joe joe. so how do you find this street with the light show you. now trust me you will see us when we get. this very tempting to stay on the red square but here we have to make the last.
7:33 am
going to. make clothes or the street lights. see here let me close now there are no empty uncle and said. oh. ok. this sounds like nonsense but you can get street that was full of
7:34 am
cars full of them are. getting. oh the load. container turned out in force here to being created a special charm based on the famous russian song to. i. i. i. i. i.
7:35 am
i i. i was going to a lot more about that later today when argentina faces croatia initially novgorod the world cup co-host just a marine you know shared his thoughts on that upcoming match. grisha is a team with some talented experienced players that play in the best clubs in the world i don't think in the past they've had enough revolution for the next generation but they have still a group of players especially in the midfield players of the best we have in the world. but this thing through a sure has a team is capable to give up to give them a difficult group the group by the way branded the group of death because of the
7:36 am
strong teams that it. is all a bit but as we've seen it's the argentinean fun is that the most loyal we've met up with a couple of them. a . good thing also a sign you know. there's. a. product we. know me an hour. a day to free me and then answer putting in front. of you. pushed. around the country and. i would. say fine i think i said external and we put him on the island i think it was what
7:37 am
kind of stuff. we got to. get him on and i said. it to. be contained to one of the information are classified. shall you. go i do you keep it i got it i'm serious. my c.v. on about how do you see your boss knowing i don't. know who they're. going to feel that they're missing their politician. on the same time to me. become a from the condo it is you know is there a little bit of that i think that i think maybe even have a shot to play there's a few brick visible c.p.o. about a picture of me but. i don't think. more
7:38 am
people do stories after the break here this morning including donald trump bobbing at last to public pressure citing an executive order to stop children being taken from undocumented immigrant families at the border. for twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time but there was one more question and by the way who's going to be our coach. you guys i know you are nervous he's a huge star and a huge amount of pressure come out you have to the center of the beach but how would you and you go all the great the great the good you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get the ball going let's go. a low. and i'm really happy to join us for the two thousand and three and world cup in russia meet the special one. meet just at the reno p.r.t.
7:39 am
team's latest edition of the go. join me every thursday on the alex simon chill and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. again good morning president trump aside an executive order halting the controversial policy of migrant family separation since may more than two thousand children have been removed from the parents of illegally crossed into the u.s. but have strong very strong borders but we're going to keep the families together i didn't like the site where the feeling of families being separated is
7:40 am
a problem that's gone on for many years as you know through many administrations yeah the cases of from a separation of the border have been the previous administration's critics point to trump has taken this controversial practice to a whole new level is so-called zero tolerance policy has been met with a massive outcry and some officials involved have been targeted by activists. trump administration officials have been sending babies and other young children to at least three. three tender age shelters in south texas wars and medical providers because. i know we're not nazi germany all right but we need be careful not to move in that direction this is not who we are in america he is taking america to a dark and ugly place is there anything you wish the senator can do those who
7:41 am
selectively use the bible to justify this cruelty are ignoring a central tenet of christianity. clinton speaking better on the use of the bible in the debate over migration just to clarify a high level trump official earlier used a passage from the scripture in a bid to try to lend some more moral validity to the family separation policy now that attend backfired badly as kellam opening. u.s. attorney general jeff sessions created a firestorm when he justified the policy of separating immigrant children from their parents by invoking a bible passage from the book of romans that was signed. you to the apostle paul and his clear and wise command in romans thirteen to the government because god is a dying or dying the government for his purposes the mainstream media had a field day don't break god into this first of all i don't think god pictures you
7:42 am
because i don't worship what i'm here puton and the only thing in the bible close to this is a king threatening to cut a baby in two and he was joking it's not a lol and also the bible isn't the government documents from my policy perspective he wants will be starting green eggs and ham saying we must keep children in a box we must keep them with the faux should we really be surprised about biblical justification for policies last year it was revealed that the white house is holding weekly bible study classes the classes are led by ralph drole injure the founder of capital ministries based in washington d.c. capital ministries has been operating for over two decades preaching evangelism to elected public servants since our founding in one thousand nine hundred six our vision has not changed to evangelize elected officials and lead them toward maturity in christ it turns out of the man advise in the white house on matters related to the almighty is a former basketball player with
7:43 am
a bachelor's degree in geography now he has no background in public policy or political science but he does offer his expertise on spiritual matters to those in power they are so teachable they're so noble their soul learned like jeff sessions will go out the same to teach him something else see him do it on camera the list of officials who have participated in ralph's classes is rather impressive you've got vice president mike pence. you've got secretary of education betsy divide us you've got secretary of state mike pompei oh and you've got energy secretary rick perry all of them have sat down with pastor ralph to learn about the good book and mike pence has even been hosting the classes the regular thing will be hosted by mike pence on wednesday many americans are horrified that evangelical ministers are influencing policy and even giving classes in the white house they think why are these religious kooks influencing the fate of the free world but there are
7:44 am
americans who feel the opposite i think ministers priests religious beliefs have been in the white house forever that's the problem with this country you people have allowed religion to become a part of political policies your religion i don't care what it is has no business being in government believe in separation of church and state i believe religion should be kept separate from politics i'm all for a separation of church and state absolutely i don't think it should be in schools i don't think that i should really be on our money anymore i mean there's there are a lot of things that i think we should separate absolutely trump did come forward and put a stop to the controversial family separation policies you may have cooled his critics on that but in the process he seems to have opened up a new divide a divide about his administration's newly announced policy of invoking the bible to justify its decisions cable mop and r.t. new york. after america renewed economic sanctions against iran it seems that some
7:45 am
european companies are betting a broker the latest round of economic restrictions was announced after washington's withdrawal from the iran nuclear deal the french economy minister has called on the e.u. now to take its fate into its own hands the. because the american president has obviously decided to position himself as the world's economic policeman. with that prevents us from becoming the victims of his decision despite the french finance ministers economic defiance of the us europe hasn't done much to protect its companies from potential sanctioning by its ally but here's a start last month europe announced its intent to bring back a blocking statute. as the european commission we have the duty to protect european companies so we now need to act and this is why we're launching the process of activating the blocking statute from nine hundred ninety six the statute bans e.u.
7:46 am
firms from complying with foreign sanctions compensating them for any penalties that might incur but this hasn't been fleshed out yet and many companies can't afford to wait for brussels to come to the rescue and french companies will be able to stay because they need to be paid for the products they did live. and they cannot be paid because there is no. european financial institution. in the french oil company total s.a. has already announced it plans to leave iran they stand to lose thirty percent of their stake in the iranian gas fields the french automobile company p.s.a. group also announced it plans to leave iran despite having sold half a million automobiles there last year other companies like danish maersk and german siemens are also winding down operations in iran it would be silly to do it in the business of funding for iran or iran related companies without explicit guarantees
7:47 am
from the us government they have us by the throat because so much business is conducted in clear in a desperate attempt to save e.u. companies europe's economic and foreign policy chief sent a letter to the u.s. government they pleaded for exemptions from washington sanctions. for companies that signed contract after the iran nuclear deal was implemented but they work now the u.s. stand firm is on its amity towards iran no more. no more wealth creation for a rainy and kleptocrats no more acceptance of missiles landing in riyadh in the golan heights no more cost free expansions a rainy in power no more the j c o p a way put the world at risk because of its fatal flaws so while politicians from across the pond try to sell each other their own truths it seems the e.u. has only two options leave iran and lose some money now or stay and lose some money
7:48 am
later. professor of political economy rasmus told us the global business is a bound up too tightly with the u.s. to avoid its dominant influence france can complain but you know the us has the global trading currency a lot of european companies have financial relationships with big u.s. banks which is probably traded europe quite a bit in recent decades or so supply chains are involved with the u.s. companies and some of these companies have a lot of business and united states is going to be very difficult for french companies and european companies to really break off and you know pursue their own independent business interests it's a global world they're interconnected in the u.s. businesses hydronic in that global world unfortunately but that's the facts. it's coming up so at nine twenty nine in the morning this thursday moscow that's the news are up so far keep in touch with all the football headlines right across the world cup. as it happens make r.t.
7:49 am
you number one choice for the tournament great to have you along with smalling i'm kevin zero in thanks for watching. you know world is a big part of the movie lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to get the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the bad shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks.
7:50 am
welcome to alex salmond. i sailed from all sides these are not encouraging times for the british beck. the irish question remains unresolved the lords are voting the tory party but the scots are rebelling and cabinet members are threatening
7:51 am
resignation today we ask the question has brett said. but first salix with your tweets your messages and emails. still lots of reaction to the series with it on shipbuilding barbara reed says it will sure well done everyone involved a success story for shipbuilding at port glasgow and geoff proven odds fantastic thank you for the most professional in the programme. deserves to lead the world in hydrogen shipping and studio says ferguson levine was. a metaphor for the future of scotland on board such a look publishing show on service and shipbuilding when you get to see and listen to the young apprentices but he is a bit worried when you were interviewing the age of like a rising tide yes it did bob the table was rising but we got out just in time and finally james doohan some of the interview in the show giving each pass the time to
7:52 am
. interruption you're quite right james unlike that. on paper it seemed business as usual for treason is government of the last two weeks tory party split threatened resignations and the prospect of being overturned in the commons however by hook or by crook and some assistance from the labor party leadership the government held the line albeit with a little blaring at the edges however breaks it lets to fight another day but the feeling of impending crisis is growing and the ante begs that forces may yet overwhelm the prime minister today to examine these forces in question whether they can halt the brakes at bus first stop is the house of lords the watch talk of the constitution has been barking decisively on the brakes a bill with a series of key government defeats in the upper chamber here's a taster of recent debate. on proposed amendment creates a full. structure set out in law for parliament to express its views in all of the various outcomes that might come to pass in our exit from the e.u.
7:53 am
it is in the national interest that punk should not be faced by just a take it or leave it but that's not just some arcane interest as a lot of ordinary citizens who would be hugely including those that for projects that the lords have kept the ball into the commons many governments parquet this majority has only been sustained by some flexible promises. and some convenient abstentions from labor alex asked former dynasty spokesman at and t. back to campaign alastair campbell to assess the situation. only by enemies the house of lords the rebellious by. the scots of the belling as well just solved the irish question so i was just told prime minister. i think she does have a certain quality of resilience and she does seem able just to keep going on as the one thing giver. but also i think the conservative party in this place is the so divided that i don't think anybody can work quite what would happen next should she
7:54 am
fall should she. fall just because the politics drive fall in a vote of confidence in that's going to happen but i just think people are worried about will come on both sides so you've got the one thing i think the trooper you know this is true party has always had this sense of kind of his own survival really care about who the leader is as long as the party survives and i think they understand that i think is a bad thing because she is driven so profoundly by the idea of holding the service positive heather and i think her party sort of gets to have the pressure outside parliament is the people's vote campaign is that coming to a head electrifying that most fear or are people across the country as confused and divided as the. parliament us there is no doubt the public are confused are divided just as this place is i think the one thing that the government is really trying to
7:55 am
play on and with some success is this sort of fatalism let's just get on with it and i think the thing is really important to understand is that let's just get on with it leads to in my view the country doing the wrong thing and considerable cost i wanted light to happen as a people's vote on the deal. because it's so different to what was promised we know so much more than we did and i see more and more people are just thinking you know why are we doing this when we think really appears clear that it's going to damages for some time to come but a government which is having some difficulty defining a meaningful vote for m.p.'s. to the people. if you if you speak injuries may now and in watching observing you say no however i think that what's happening. with two years on from the referendum that's half of the limpia at the next world cup will be almost ready by the time that you've had the time that we've
7:56 am
had to sort of as you say with them sort of the irish question so i think anything can happen i really do and also i honestly think from the labor party's perspective as well i think the labor party actually said you know what we're good to this every which way there's no way this can be done without damaging the people that we represent and if you turn on that i think labor go home and john election is at the moment this government. useless as it is divide is incompetent as is their head in the polls they attempt this week to make make it reality for the. double decker bus promise and the health service how do you assess that as a political move i think is extraordinary i think i mean the one thing i think we're in a completely different era in politics i mean you and i have both been accused many many times of kind of you know pushing the truth being too hard being too aggressive whatever. but this is something of a completely different order this is where people knowing something to be untrue knowing something to have been exposed as being untrue feel the confidence to be
7:57 am
able to go on television and say to reason. we want to reserve. i don't think i'm afraid of the sort of playbook is basically whatever you say is the truth time and the. situation kind of doesn't matter very dangerous game to play and i was very i was genuinely surprised trees and i played it. thank you very much you know by. now the opposition has difficulty uniting but then so does the cabinet for the last two weeks have been full of more foreign secretary unpleasant resignation however the government can depend on one set of reliable allies the democratic unionist party access leading the. whether that support with unconditional. welcome to the. prime minister doesn't have a problem to see. the rebels divided the scots.
7:58 am
are only for a. conditional if your support well as you well know all support in the house of commons is. blank check. anyone they're working with and we have made it quite clear that as far as we're concerned our support is conditional on northern ireland being treated the same as the rest of the united kingdom where unionist party after the warning shot across the bows last christmas when she was trying to get a deal and seem to be. are you convinced the prime minister is no foully on board what you think that first of all last christmas was an indication to the prime minister that our support is conditioned. i think we probably rescued her from her own folly at that particular time because of course she hard saying up to something
7:59 am
which would have had implications not just for northern ireland and scotland would have been saying what. differently we had to see it might come in the referendum as . we want a different treatment on long than would have said the c.m. had her whole strategy and a shambles but since then of course i think the prime minister is cognizant of the fact that she needs our support she has made promises in the house of commons that north our will not be treated differently and i think if one looks out her. for the backstop which is a huge k.y. arrangement it's an indication that she will not make the same mistake again or two years and after the referendum still doesn't seem to be a definitive solution so the question of a frictionless border between northern ireland and the public do you think that solutions in sight or do you think it's going to elude the prime minister well i think that the solution was in sight a long time ago it wasn't that there wasn't
8:00 am
a solution the question is is there the political will on the part of the european union and the irish government to adopt a solution which allows for a frictionless border and you know it's hard for you that the border between northern ireland are some public is actually quite easy to sort out the real issue for the irish should be how do you make sure that you're not cut off from your market and b. or not. bridge across. europe disrupted. a solution unless by some oxidant either she decides step dying or she finds a very massive vote against our. which people haven't dr leigh planned for i think that he will survive but it will be i'm sure says getting up every morning wondering. water myself and for nails i wouldn't be too many of them left but i suspect that she wants to survive and she probably will for our society also thank
8:01 am
you so much for the interview and i were to meet her if the government didn't have enough problems i knew semites last week as an s.n.p. parliamentary group but i'll go over about what they see as a programme and promise to play a part now with westminster on bricks that alex spoke to told me shipwright comments how will the about the threats to break sit from the other celtic nations i'm joined by tommy shepherd from the scottish national party and hope that breaks that committee. it can be shared but are you really upset about is that there's a parliamentary game some sort of pantomime that you were acting out last week no games here i like this stuff that really affects people effects of people i represent and of course last week the reason why we made a protest was because we were denied for my first time in this parliament we were denied the opportunity to even discuss major proposals that will affect the lives of the people i was elected to represent if i'm unable to do that then i think i'm
8:02 am
feeling in my political responsibility to the people who voted for me to not protest about it and i hope the government's learned its lesson from the shenanigans of last week and it won't try and do that again but having said that i very much doubt that i want to just sit on the committee which again is not be friendly to the government but should assessment of the debate this week about what represents a meaningful vote for members of parliament when the negotiations are done and dusted for the government meaningful seems to be a bit clearly they've changed their minds a number of times but the people who are promoting this very clear it's to the store to see to parliament house of commons something that people campaigned for when they wanted to leave the would be in the union and eventually it comes down to if the government fails and if they can see with the mess that they are doing of the legal. ca sions and if we're likely to come out without to deal then eventually the house of commons love to assert itself and give the government
8:03 am
a bit of direction. the beats filled guidance not the details orders that are seen to be posited in the press and by the government itself but the general election so this we can try to make some sort of success of this dreadful mess that we're in some stage over the next few months do you think the opposition forces the people who are skeptical about blacks or just don't worry opposed to it are they going to manage to combine behind a single killer amendment to hold the government it's up to the labor party to a greater extent. very constructive talks going on between the various parties involved from the greens the s.n.p. played and also be from the labor party liberals and also from the conservatives we're all in there talking but occasionally that is not presumed to see as there was last week last going into the technical matter but we could have had the votes we might have defeated the governments and labor decided to put forward their own amendments which some people couldn't couldn't support and differentially to set
8:04 am
themselves that's more sad for themselves and that is really counts in the some people argue that jeremy called them at the end of the day as an all time great city of themself and he's not going to put the parliament in the position of defeating blacks even if it was to bring down the government well indeed you and i know him from many years experience and think he's a very straight sort of a chap in many ways and clearly he is here and he's holding his party with him the majority of them i think in favor of a soft boxes as soft as we can manage but he's determined to deliver to the government what's he really wants i think is a very hard field when some people think back to the one trying this after the break we'll be continuing this discussion about the. but but it's a problem and i was speaking to a commentator and i so fast went over well the prime minister can defeat all
8:05 am
opponents i went through at the end of the day joining us on. what politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. you somehow want to. have to go right to the press it's like before three of the more people. i'm interested always in the water has a. question. welcome back i'm speaking to the scottish national party front bench.
8:06 am
in the committee but i was saying that he thought that gemma carbon at least borden's of his water. but in the rather convenient for you to lump the the blame on the labor party leadership i mean surely it takes two or maybe more than two to tangle and you've got to make concessions to fighting that amendment to hold the government to task well we've just got to hope that jeremy corby carbon hates the tories more than he hates the other social democratic parties in europe you know maybe maybe he'll come to that realisation i hope so but also it's the historic role in the constitutional role of the opposition in this parliament to oppose the government so he has had many opportunities to do so and hasn't taken him because he's trying to square splits inside his own party and i understand that i accept that but when we get to the final home straight in this long tortuous process of the e.u. withdrawal bill i think at some stage labor has got to declare themselves as not
8:07 am
supporting the government i when they choose to do that in the united basis all of us will be behind them in the lobbies on that one and i think there will be day realistic prospect of inflicting serious serious wounds in the government strategy where one. of last week suggested that the s.n.p. what about the clay pot mail westminster. who brought the westminster parliament to its knees and procedural towns in the nineteenth century in pursuit of violet's home rule. is the house of commons able to. be on that or have they been tightened up since the days of but now in the wind. well well i could not answer that question until we had trial it to be honest but i would say this that i mean i think it has been a lot of people going into hyperbole about what happened last week and it being be a new strategy by the s.n.p. actually what happened last week was a. a spontaneous and an instinctive reaction to our leader being expelled from the
8:08 am
house of commons and we took the not unreasonable view that if our voices cannot be heard inside the chamber then we will make sure that we will have been heard outside the chamber and we actually tripped over to this very green and in the space of about two hours got more press coverage than we've done in the previous year and now the london media and the political bubble here they know there's a problem with bracks it to do with scotland and the way you do recognise that before it was a one off or you're planning a strategy well as a set on the sort of politics if there were to be a strategy i'm sure one of the components of it would be an element of surprise so i would be disinclined to talk to you about it on television however let me make the case that i mean the the s.n.p. has always taken if you that we will do anything we can and use any means at our disposal to advance the interests of the people who elected us to come to this place sometimes that means working the procedures even with their limitations and other times that means making extra parliamentary protests it's not about or of one or the other. finally the irish question i this board
8:09 am
a question still seems insoluble do you think from europe the proceedings of the breaks that committee has anyone come up with an answer that support the house of commons well the short answer is no and there's a complete contradiction here in the north of ireland this government's wants essentially an open door. to comply with international treaties but the whole rhetoric of the leave campaign was to lock the door and over now you can't have two sets of enjoyments within one country and if i was a burglar i probably got on the back and through the back door just to say generally of the two large questions which have been build the conservative party under there's over the last couple of hundred years is there a basic question and then the european press and the genius government as we have now to support the problems down both of the same i don't know the monies that they are reaping the effects of that's unfortunately now and so is the last of the of all can see is suffering because of it but without fascinating insight into
8:10 am
political history thank you so much carol williams and of course tommy shepherd. so little sign of help from the prime minister from the celtic nations is that a way flew for to the summit the one man who says that is as peter oborne the political commentator peter welcome to the examiner shield i know very much the prime minister is like a wagon train so i only buy a horse clothes she's got the house a lot of the committee rebellious backbenchers divisions in the cabinet the scots some revolting and islander still hasn't been solved how can she possibly solve that breaks that conundrum. what she's doing be doing remarkably well so far i mean every commentator in the land has risen or off endlessly we've had these one crisis after another where all the experts say she's about to be. out and so far she's in a very difficult circumstances then i think rather a smart balancing act but it's more than just a question of surviving i mean beyond prime minister leading just staying there is
8:11 am
there any sign that she can lead this divided party in the direction she wants to go. so far she's done exactly that a minute the way i read it and made there may be other ways of doing that but it is that she's determined has been from the starts navigating what in the colloquial is called the soft bricks basically britain will remain part of some kind of single market and some kind of customs union you go remember there are hundreds of civil servants from europe and from britain working industriously to make something like that happen and you know whether it's to produce this soft breaks it the prime minister has to veer between the skill or of the remain as and the. might might and the opposite side of the current of the of the brics it is and every day you read a fresh attack on
8:12 am
a saying that she's finished and she can't lead well i say to them is that she's still there and it's still on course so in a way you suggested she's almost deliberately dividing our own cabinet so she can she can get hard line through the middle as it were then about the liberal it is divided isn't it between a small number boris johnson michael gove may be although he looks a bit coin a phrase perfidious if you ask me. and probably one or two others and on the other side you've got. you've got a bulk of the weight of remains and i think she is trying to navigate a path in my reading of is she and i admire this i mean it's a very major think bricks there are car workers in the north east of england you want to keep them in their jobs you want to keep those car plants going that the european markets working she's under enormous attack from the. six years for the wanting to do the deal with your but i think she's actually being quite sensible
8:13 am
but it's about four high wire act as would have been any point they office issue could unite behind the killer amendment and then the prime minister's. position would be untenable and that actually would have happened by now in my reading of the situation but for the fact that labor is more committed to break six of the labor leadership to be more exact is much more committed to breaks it than the conservatives and that's why john may call been again and again if rather than go and kill off the government is somehow keeping it going and the labeling to carry on what happened last week when he refused to join in the anti government more. ed to the day if the child says they have to topple a prime minister to force an election on any the constitutional duty of the opposition leader is to to want to be prime minister and to and to bring down governments when you say that and i agree with that and it's perfectly honorable.
8:14 am
to do that john smith did this kind of thing over over maastricht twenty five years ago and now coburn is doing the exact opposite. of john smith he's withholding the dagger in order to keep the british project afloat that's my reading of the situation but those are a lot of things not just many a slip can happen we know in the autumn in the us a huge number of unsolved questions on the camel has been kicked down the road in numerable some point leaves matters are going to come to the touch is it possible for the prime minister to continue to pursue the evil day if she keeps on perspiring things i think she may have to. pay a very heavy price for that i mean we just reading today that the final deal may not be negotiated until the seminar that's free months before you know we leave the european union in other words and it was originally meant to be in
8:15 am
a gambit negotiated by this month and so there's going to be a period of chaos and that is i think the moment of macs. some danger for the government when she comes back from brussels with that final deal and it goes to the commons and that is when she might indeed be defeated so you see the prime minister definitely maneuvering to come back to the commons for deal but you think at that point the congress might throw it over or try to for a while probably she would probably she will get it through but it is obviously there are going to be honorable principle people on both sides of the argument though again to do what is not normal in british parliamentary politics which is to vote against their own party on a higher principle. if you thought the. various times in the last hundred years the european question and the irish question of the sable governments of the day no this prime minister is wrestling with both similar pinnace lee can she possibly
8:16 am
survive that. well somebody would have said this eighteen months ago they were saying it eighteen months ago twelve months ago she has survived. i'm not carin certain that she is going to continue to survive by the way but i think she's been people are very contemptuous about this prime minister. and yet she's still there it's carrying on and i the odds must be that brings it somehow is going to take place. royal ascot this week is if the prime minister was a favorite one of these races would you back up to stay the course. i think in particular in one of the long distance races like the road you know the two miler later on this afternoon i think she might manage in those six furlong races that she might fail to get over the fact that so much thank you very voting. so here we have it
8:17 am
a prime minister sharon did on all sides by problems and difficulties caught between the european rock and some real hard casey's among the breaks of tears. and indeed there remain a piece. of us be the robot and suggests a grand strategy to divide opponents why she comes through the middle with a soft blanket policy or is the general view the she actually can't make up our mind what to do and even if she would probably not be able to command a majority to pursue it we're going to find out reasonably soon because the clock is ticking she can read many times over the last year but she's still there she's still in office perhaps the reason is that she's the prime minister that most people dislike the least a recipe for survival but not much of a political legacy to be that myself and everyone here. goodbye for now.

enter a lot more that too late today when argentina faces croatia the sydney no girl will cup co-host just a memory of shared his thoughts on but upcoming. is a team with some talented experienced players have seen the best clubs in the world i don't think in the in the past years they've had enough of illusion for the next generation but they have still a group of players especially and that means feels as if the best we have in the world i was at the as i was in tina. but i think through asia has the team is capable to give up to give them a difficult so that much is a group that's grounded the group of death because of the scrum feeds it is ice that nigeria and croatia expect to do well as you see it is the argentinian funds
8:26 am
that the some of the most loyal to we've met it with a couple of. giving us a sign you. can meet up with. a . to call your product we are by no man out here to be. day to free me and then it's over again to. see. the. country our abounding country. i was. sorry for not be going out. and we put him on the island i think it was what i shot . a movie. set of mine and i said.
8:27 am
it to. be contained to one of my information our classic article got to let me go so i shall you. know i do you can do it i got it. pretty nice. knowing i have. no clue. how to. say well yeah but let me in for a mound of people most of the comparative you know for a little bit of the other to get a bit of a rush to play because of the abuse of will he do you are going to pick up a. little bit. slowly while welcome here for the rough up of all the events and i lights of last night let's go to a special studio in the very center of moscow. it's another beautiful site for you
8:28 am
on this moscow evening i wish i could say the football has been so beautiful if i'd not have been the high scoring games have been a bit intriguing in a very different way on wednesday peter schmeichel on saddam hussein three rissoles the last that was spain which he still confidently predicted they were going to be the round but it was kind of scrappy and often in this much scrappy yes and very very exciting in the last fifteen minutes the run actually had the ball in the net that we all thought that they put the linesman cable side and it was taking two of our decision thought it was one one and it was going to be it was going to be an even interesting more interesting into the game with spain did it. and i said on many occasions probably the best team in this tournament. and you know they played the game exactly the way they had to do it and watching the game was. tough luck
8:29 am
for iran at the cousin arena losing by one goal to spain with universal admission by experts and fans alike that they were very unlucky and they played very well known the last it seems that the team the manager are in somewhat of an upbeat mood i had of their ultimate kalash their decisive clash against portugal the teams manager call a skater speaking at the press conference said that it's too early to rule use country out the spanish players obviously war in a very positive mood although admitted that this game was really tough to win credits to iran for putting on such a performance and even as men and iranian players and the manager also praised their fans. even. the numbers we love how we're amazed by. things sports people it's not something i'm.
8:30 am
going to stop. thank you have our team. was only you know you know. so now it goes to the last game in this group which will decide who goes next to the last sixteen spain portugal or iran. so in many ways iran has shown us. i think what they'll do is. that they will try and keep it going all the quiet i think the lessons that we've learned from watching portugal against morocco and portugal and again spain is a portugal at this moment in time have not found any form they don't play was a team and the one player that shining above everyone in the tournament is playing in that team with those of course are another. christiane zero run although it's unique he's an international image for portugal he's unique and unique for us
8:31 am
portuguese and equal. the moroccan national team played very well quickly vigorously the players were in very good physical shape so it was difficult for portugal to play against them but christiana scored goalkeeper patricio played very well helped out in difficult situations we can say that there are no easy teams in the championship all the teams are very good. yeah didn't fourteen as you talk to the players and what did you say to them. the game against iran will be even more difficult because they already have three points they played very well against spain have a very good coach will go out that needs to gather strength to win not to play for a draw although a draw is also not bad you need to be very calm and careful and beat the iranians and after europe why russia like the teams are very complex games against these teams will be very difficult to get. yet even more port. people will come to russia
8:32 am
because this is a unique opportunity other cool matches will be played the weather here is very comfortable this is a great chance for tourists and an opportunity for the pool used to support the team it's a lot more clear cut in group a and this is how it stands now after today's result we saw a year ago i defeat saudi arabia now you know there's a lot of expectation if you're one might fall for you just quite easily after russia put fife at half the saudis but he's very different just won't go next was it i think when he didn't get it this far is playing well on his one hundred appearance you know why and the result is your wife three and russia or three which is in the russian capital when that goal went in because it means that against a lot of printout of an expectation russia or three what do you think of the euro coins and it's. definitely not firing on all set in this they they've got a lot of room to to improve but you can argue with two games six points that this
8:33 am
is this is proper protocol effect safe for them in playing stuff you don't play your best game in the first game of the second you don't peak in the group phase you know just try to get through the coup face and then you progress from there so they now have a free game which i think is very important they now have a game where where they can experiment a little bit and get the things that are working can't them right and it's not going to cost so much the game against russia do you think russia will do this experiment they. i think it's a sense of is always changing what he thought was he was going to play with in these championships i think he's kind of getting he's eleven right now. i don't know if russia has peaked and they've played at the highest level they've scored eight goals which is incredible in two games start added by a bios and i hope not i mean it it really. he is important that the whole host
8:34 am
nation. stays in the tournament for the sake of the tournament and for the for the the atmosphere and for for for for people as opposed to still have a vested interest in this so. i just wanted to say you took it about you know did the vested interest in how successful host nation keeps of a great atmosphere russia are all playing today you still hear the whole mess and some chancing coming from from from down there the atmosphere everything. is annoying me but now i don't actually think that was fair remains they still fun testing this tournament is already proving that football indeed is a unifying force after the shot of a fan celebration when viral. it was an amazing experience i think
8:35 am
a lot of people are saying you know was because of the they were helping me to watch the match but we were actually just celebrating for the opening ceremony all these guys i just met and we were celebrating dancing and all of a sudden i find myself in the air it's crazy. but. i used to play really able bodied basketball before my before my accident after my accident part of my rehab was to play wheelchair basketball just to try it out as soon as i played it i fell in love with the game completely. i think the atmosphere over here is amazing and people are great everyone is so friendly you can you can really feel the love from everyone around you with. yourself and.
8:36 am
i think every obstacle is an op. to ready for you to step up and just enjoy life more and. live life that effects. of course frasier plays out in two weeks but two other games as well improve see play australia game that i will be watching of course in france take on australia. and be good into the looking patriotic red show you can have to put on a very fast washed tonight. that's on today because when we go in tomorrow but then the game's already been played. breaking breaking will set up a t.v. set. here so go peter arnett neil lennon neil was lucky enough not only to present from us central moscow studio with that amazing view but also earlier he got the chance to visit some lost pops in russia's northern capitals and petersburg to.
8:37 am
the show you know professional. that was lucky so how they get international kickabout here i got very lucky that we got the funds from all over the world we got russian azerbaijan and morocco and gentlemen here from poland this is rough out now he explains why i'm doing this report today because their fans see how the tickets to watch the games even st petersburg e.b. watching poland did what most. told you cannot but he still wants to see st petersburg see the hermitage see the sights so what does he do when he was little the other games they had the balls pubs restaurants around the city games being shown live everywhere where's the best place to go is the question let's take a look. at first choice yes it's no secret. that chose it because it's popular for a reason to feed itself those who are in the sunshine it's family friends. there's
8:38 am
a great atmosphere head and there's going to be a gulf war but a place to enjoy. the excitement of all the football club that located just outside the front so you could wind relax the gentle pull price and the penny since the no. but maybe some of the sunshine fresh air besides you liking it so a little strange but i understand so let's head to auction to go to the pub. this is the way to enjoy the world cup football with a beer some chips. some salty is expiring global cosmopolitan here. but singularly interesting golf is a clue in the night it's called a hundred yards beyond us because it's long. and it needs to be. on
8:39 am
some little. bit misleading because it's not one hundred yards long it's three hundred meters long slow don't understand the well are you having. this is not the final and i think i. was the last is that i was supposed. to come up and say some of the pot odds of making this guy he's a cad and he's going to not come and sure. keep you. and he's percy good this is the place for all the for strong t.v. commentators among it you know the guys the ones who just never shuts up well. i
8:40 am

getting such a nice league. yella day's work for nailing that football light to promise you more the big news stories came up after the break here including donald trump at last to public pressure in stopping children being taken from undocumented immigrant families at the u.s. border. apply for many flips over the years so i know the game and so i got. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch to the funnel school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super money just kill the narrowness of spending to get the twenty million and one player. it's an experience like nothing else going to because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful guy
8:42 am
great so will more chance for. the six minute. i guess this is r.t. good morning president trump signed an executive order halting the controversial policy of migrant family separation since may more than two thousand children have been removed from their parents who illegally crossed into the u.s.
8:43 am
. abstract very strong borders but we're going to keep the families together i didn't like the site where the feeling of families being separated is a problem that's gone on for many years as you know through many administrations. cases of family separation of the border have the previous administrations critics point out that trump has taken this controversial practice to a whole new level is so-called zero tolerance policy has been met with a massive cry and some officials involved have been targeted by activists. and trump administration officials have been sending babies and other young children to at least three. three tender age shelters in south texas wars and medical providers because. i know we're not nazi germany
8:44 am
all right but we need be careful not to move in that direction this is not who we are in america he is taking america to a dark and ugly place is there anything you wish the senator can do those who selectively use the bible to justify this cruelty are ignoring a central tenet of christianity hillary clinton speaking there on the use of the bible in the debate over migration just to clarify high level trump official earlier used a passage from the scripture in a bid to lend some moral validity to the family separation policy the. badly as caleb maupin explains u.s. attorney general jeff sessions created a firestorm when he justified policy of separating immigrant children from their parents by invoking a bible passage from the book of romans that was sign. of the apostle paul in his
8:45 am
clear. and was command in romans thirteen to phase out of the government because god is a dying or dying the gov for his purposes the mainstream media had a field day don't break god into this first of all i don't think god pick jew because i don't worship what i'm here putin and the only thing in the bible close to this is a king threatening to cut a baby in two and he was joking it's not a lol and also the bible isn't the government documents from my policy perspective he wants will be starting green eggs and ham saying we must keep children in a box we must keep them with the faux should we really be surprised about biblical justification for policies last year it was revealed that the white house is holding weekly bible study classes the classes are led by ralph drole injure the founder of capital ministries based in washington d.c. capital ministries has been operating for over two decades preaching evangelism to

elected public servants since our founding in one thousand nine hundred six our vision has not changed to evangelize so much to deficiencies and lead them toward maturity in christ it turns out of the man advise in the white house on matters related to the almighty is a former basketball player with a bachelor's degree in geography now he has no background in public policy or political science but he does offer his expertise on spiritual matters to those in power they are so teachable they're so noble their soul learned like jeff sessions he'll go out the same to teach him something else see him do it on camera the list of officials who have participated in ralph's classes is rather impressive you've got vice president mike pence you've got secretary of education betsy divide us you've got secretary of state mike pompei oh and you've got energy secretary rick perry all of them have sat down with pastor ralph to learn about the good book and mike pence has even been hosting the classes the regular. will be hosted by mike
8:47 am
pounds from wednesday many americans are horrified that evangelical ministers are influencing policy and even giving classes in the white house they think why are these religious kooks influencing the fate of the free world but there are americans who feel the opposite that's the problem with this country you people have allowed religion to become a part of political policies your religion i don't care what it is has no business being in government it's his prerogative right as his own religion right was a freedom of religion that's why the country is old based upon right freedom so the president is things he has his rights as well not a problem believe in separation of church and state i believe religion should be kept separate from politics having other presidents done that in the past too i mean if they're religious then they're allowed to do that as long as it's not interfering with actual governing then it shouldn't be any sort of a conflict there so their residence so trump did come forward and put
8:48 am
a stop to the controversial family separation policies he may have cooled his critics on that but in the process he seems to have opened up a new divide a divide about his administration's newly announced policy of invoking the bible to justify its decisions cable mop and r.t. new york times moscow times these are up so far keep in touch with all the football headlines run across the world cup on our side in the uk has it all happens make us a few number one choice for the whole told him and i'm kevin know it thanks for watching. what politicians do sometimes. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or

we take a deep dive look at a definitive need disruptor net flix with the host of the big picture here in r.t. america holland books plus in the wake of a recent report by the u.s. social security system trustees will ask seven question at the center for economic policy research what could be done to change some of the dim forecast on the financial demise of the program all that ahead but first we get to a few of. the family separation issue is again dominating the news today and condemnations of the policy pour in from many quarters including the business world and earlier today president donald trump said that he would quote sign something to end the practice tech related companies were in the forefront of the growing backlash with microsoft employees organizing a letter to their c.e.o. demanding an end to the company's twenty million dollar data processing contract with immigrations and customs enforcement the list of big names in the tech adin

out tech sector denouncing the policy now includes tim cook of apple in law must of tesla and other key c.e.o.'s including that of google over and cisco meanwhile the lead official implementing the policy of the facto kidnapping homeland security secretary kristen nielsen felt the wrath of public backlash here in washington actually just a block away from here if she attempted to dine out at of all places a mexican restaurant laughter evening was confronted by protesters before she abruptly left. and filling out a headline that broke as we went to air yesterday mcclatchy reported that the number of unaccompanied minors the trumpet ministration has lost track of is around six thousand up sharply from the previously reported fifteen hundred lost in this case means sponsors who were given to children did not respond to cell phone calls which is pretty troubling and while the executive order to end the family separation issue has just been signed by president trump the details are currently unclear we're going to have more on this on immigration the business impact of not
8:52 am
just us immigration but other global immigration issues on our next program. australian telecommunications company telstra has announced that it will be slashing more than eight thousand jobs over the next three years most of the jobs are expected to be from middle management and about one of every four executive positions the company has been facing increasing pressure as the industry has become more competitive with the company already preparing to sell more than one point five billion dollars in assets by twenty twenty and that's not all chevron is making waves off australia's coast as it finished the construction of two massive liquefied natural gas plants the company spent more than eighty eight billion dollars in order to build the plants and order to produce more than twenty five million tonnes of l. and g. this move will make australia the largest export or of ellen g. by next year overtaking qatar investors shareholders are joining privacy advocates and urging amazon not to sell facial recognition technology to law enforcement

nineteen investor groups that brand themselves as socially responsible and manage a total of ten billion dollars an amazon common voting stock say the technology called recognition that spelled with a k. could create legal liability for amazon the investors also alluded to a threat to privacy rights that led three dozen every student groups including the american civil liberties union to send a letter in may that demanded amazon's growing web service division stop selling the. ology to law enforcement the advocate said the technology could effectively eliminate the freedom to walk down the street without being surveilled in an over police community especially those in communities of colors and suppress freedoms of speech freedom of speech by identifying protesters. and on friday the off the opec the organization patrolling up forty countries meets
8:54 am
in vienna to discuss whether or not they're going to continue their production cups with cuts with other countries namely russia and to have more on that sort of prognosticate of what's going to happen and what it may mean on policy and prices we had the founder and c.e.o. of greenberg capital david greenberg thank you david for joining us or good to have you with us again my pleasure bar always good to see you and so after we had these cuts what are they been in place for another eighteen months or even longer at one point six million barrels a day and russia was the big kahuna that joined opec it looks like they're on sort of pace to get rid of that in fact some say that if we didn't see an end to those. production cuts we could see one hundred dollars barrel of oil but you're a former are you still trade but trade a lot for at nymex on oil for years and years and i always appreciated your advice over the years was that the commission david but how do you see things going forward. well it's interesting for some of your newer and younger viewers you know
8:55 am
what we need to realize is that we're just seeing opec be opec and we've played this out every year for really the past thirty years the impressive thing is that they've actually held it together over the last eighteen months and pulled some supply off and got the bump that they were looking for but the infighting has always been there and what we're seeing with the drama between iran and russia and saudi arabia we've all seen before and you know if you look back in history and what i think will happen is they'll probably come out to some sort of an agreement they'll give some sort of minimal raise but the question's going to be like it's always been throughout history is who cheats and how much yeah there's been a lot of cheating in the past it seems david and particularly when you see iran's production which may go down i note that india said they're going to continue to get iranian oil and stuff but it may happen if iran does lose some production and who fills that in let me ask you though about a couple of key players that you mentioned russia you know russia was part of this
8:56 am
deal there they are one of the top three all producers with the saudis and and the u.s. they're pretty critical component of these cuts what are they doing it like it or not russia is the main player on the world stage in this debate on that between making the g seven or g eight or however you want to look at it but russia is going to want to pump as much as they can because they need the money right now and it's a good way for them to bring it in so i think russia is going to pressure very hard to get these limits raised one of the other members previously fairly significant but not so quite as much of late as venezuela and lot of people don't even know venezuela part of a part of opec to this not in the middle east of course but with all their political problems david are they pretty much a person out now. this well is one of the most incredible stories that is absolutely not being covered anywhere in the world i've gotten video and pictures from friends there were there last year about the rioting in the streets and everything that's going on and their infrastructure is absolutely crumbling and
8:57 am
even at these oil prices that's a bump for them which you would think would be good the problem that they have now is between their ports falling apart their their mechanics on their wells falling apart they're down from one point four a day to one point two a day and they're worried that they many even go under a million barrels so even if they wanted to be a major player they just can't because the country itself is imploding and the infrastructure on their oil is imploding so they're basically off the chart as far as being a real significant factor because even if you said you could they could do five hundred thousand barrels more a day they can't get they can't get it out this is the ones that and how about the demand side david have strong demand assume that's going to continue for the next few years sure war and seasonally strong the man anyway and you know as well as well as you know worldwide things are good economies are kind of humming along so you know i don't see the demand dropping off that quickly unless there's a major world event which right now things seem to be going pretty well well let me
8:58 am
ask you about world events there a little bit and i don't know the answer to this one so i'm pleased to have your take on it but do all these trade wars the tariff talks eccentric do they have any impact on oil prices or on the oil industry in general. i don't really think so first of all for american oil we don't export that much to begin with listen we're far better than we were when we were the euro so that's just going to be a small impasse but i think it's going to happen in the trade wars is that time now that it's kind of like you're a tariff against my tariff cool heads will prevail and in six months to a year you're going to see everything just not work itself out but they'll be deals that are made and will be arrangements made and i think you'll see the pressure really but i don't see it you would have seen it already you know as far as a major spike we've had a nice move but it hasn't been anything elias type of a move on the way up yeah and i don't ask your general price question before we have to go but you know we did see w t i trading now around sixty five or sixty six
8:59 am
but it was up you know from the seventy's and brant was trading around seventy four bucks today that's down from i think it peaked over eighty couple of weeks ago and gasoline prices in the states the current prices to eighty eight per gallon that's down a bit from a week or month ago but but still up from a year ago where it was to twenty eight so what do you expect going forward for sort of the rest of the year david. as you know i've been a bear my entire life and energy is but i felt seventy five dollars oil i mean oil when it was one fifteen and then i felt the same way when it was at thirty five i think we're coming out to a pretty good equilibrium and you have to remember the world didn't fall apart when we hit one hundred one hundred ten there was some stress and the world didn't flourish to it to an outstanding amount when we were thirty five so while we are up a little bit we're still so drastically lower from the all time highs that the economy can handle it the people can handle and the world economy can handle it so i see a staying around here in a very tight range for the next year so you don't you don't see it go in
9:00 am
a hundred at least. no i just don't because i think they'll be so much cheating on the way out that it's going to have natural sellers going on the way up there would have to be a major major disruption or a major middle east conflict between iran and saudi with some major tensions to get it back up there because you're going to have natural selling all the way up on this market david thank you for your time david greenberg the founder of greenberg capital see you next time thank you. and the longstanding component of the dow jones industrial average index general electric has been booted and replaced by walgreens boots growing up i recall standard bearers like g.e. an international business the sheens i.b.m. as always some of the dow's biggest stocks the move is somewhat of a landmark in that the dow began all way back in eight hundred ninety six and with g.e.'s departure now none of the original companies remains as part of the index and time now for a quick break but stick around because when we return we take
9:01 am
a deep dive look at the definitive definitive disruptor in the media sector that net flix with the host of the big picture of home and book plus we'll ask kevin cushman of the center for economic policy research what could be done to change some of the didn't work on the financial demise of the u.s. social security program and here are the numbers at the polls and. stock market manipulation by insiders and embedded by regulators like to see all the a c c's doing here is see what you can look up on urban dictionary what
9:02 am
that means all they're trying to do is cover their tracks so that when the lawsuits happen they can say oh we were aware of it we warned against it we're on top of it but they are aiding and abetting the regulators or captured the regulators or venal the regulators good play. if you've ever looked around a big city in the u.s. and wondered do we really need another starbucks are there too many you may be surprised to hear that starbucks is answering that question with a clear no on tuesday the seattle based coffee store chain told investors about plans to close one hundred fifty stores in the coming year that figure is about three times their typical closure rate the corporation chose to scale back amid a visible glut of coffee shops many of them chasing the lucrative trend starbucks created that competition has contributed to
9:03 am
a meager one percent expected sales growth figure for the third quarter of the year the closures will be focused in what starbucks terms densely dependent traded markets those include places like washington d.c. for example which has worse starbucks per capita than any state with more than one for every ten thousand residents state of california incidentally has the most stores with over twenty four hundred and sixty. the south korean crypto exchange bit thumb announced that more than thirty one point five million dollars in digital currency has been stolen after a major attack that some halted all trading as it attempted to figure out how to hack it heard this is the second major heist in the last week as thieves had already stolen thirty million dollars from another korean exchange called coin rail when asked about the attacks the chief analyst that security said that digital currencies will always be targets for hackers worldwide the analysts said that no amount of security measures or regulations would be able to guarantee one hundred
9:04 am
percent safety as there and a minute and lightly secured systems make them ideal targets sounds like a cop out to me and it can't possibly be true things will get better. and we have spoken on the program many times about the media merger madness in fact today disney has upped their bid for twenty first century fox from fifty five billion done stock and seventy one point three billion total with some cash and that it was reported to be accepted just moments ago actually the new offer came in the wake of a federal judge's ruling allowing. time warner deal to go forward after comcast had come in with a fifty five billion dollar bid the stocks for all three companies were up in today's trading with fox trading in the high forty dollars range disney just over one hundred five bucks and comcast trading in the low thirty three's we'll see what happens with comcast stock going forward and today however we move beyond that and dig a little deeper into the definitive media disruptor netflix and becca nine hundred
9:05 am
ninety s. blockbuster video stores dot in the country with locations where customers visited and picked out movies or even a video game on tape on tape folks then the move went to d.v.d. and its height blockbuster employed more than eighty three thousand workers worldwide but the upstart competition back in the day was netflix which offered a service where a customer went online and order movies d.v.d.'s which would arrive in the mail the very next day we wondered how they would do it while due to next flick along with redbox the automated kiosk of course blocks buster went out of business there cope but like a shark that these to continue moving to eat and stay alive netflix has continued to move forward for three decades they have been the definitive disruptor in the media landscape and here to go deeper in the as veteran media analyst and host of big picture here in r.t. america holland cook holland thank you for joining us always a pleasure ok so netflix you know they help knock off competition titian like like blockbusters and they originally were real beneficiaries they were add on value ads
9:06 am
to the big hollywood studios universal sony warner brothers m.g.m. and. and then they netflix started streaming their services right that was their first big move after the mail order stuff well even before they were streaming this was great news initially for hollywood they had another sales channel and many of your viewers may not be old enough to remember the rewind charge at blockbuster where they'd nikky a couple of bucks if you didn't rewind the v.h.s. tape remember that well along came the better quality to set it set there was a had it piece a little piece the reminder it said be kind always remind her that she was sorry so along came d.v.d. looked better sounded better didn't have to rewind it so here's a new way to sell through as they say to license hollywood movies so even before streaming and these netflix guys had the vision they didn't call a d.v.d.
9:07 am
by mail dot com it was net flix you would go on the net order some flicks they'd come in the mail easy segue to streaming which has pretty much the last nail in the coffin of hard copy and you know why own it anymore when you can simply stream it but i made the movie studio loved it because depp flicks was taking all these old movie is that the studios had produced and they were just sending them money so is a big deal so it was sort of disruptive i was hugely disruptive in that way and then the big the next big thing they started we talked about this before with other media venues streaming there of creating their new content talk about that a little bit they start off what with house of cards right and we've seen this in audio as well music has changed to the point where we don't want to own it anymore we just want to rent it it's been commodity like music. movies are like catch up you want some catch up go into mcdonald's grab an armful you know it's all been
9:08 am
come out of ties you can get something everywhere but you can only get house of cards the crown and the other stuff that netflix is doing on netflix so now it's an awkward relationship with hollywood because they're licensing less of the commodity product and they're giving hollywood something hollywood can't push anywhere else the crown and house of cards etc and to some extent with the new content mean the old content they still need the studios but to some extent creating their own content netflix does not need hollywood because they're doing their own stuff and there are others that are into the game sort of trying to emulate in part at least amazon we know is a big one was recently reported that they're going to netflix is spending eight billion dollars on original content amazon's growth and five billion dollars on a regional content the reason reportedly about to enter into some agreement with the actress reese witherspoon so it's a big deal of course apple's out there trying to get into streaming too so it
9:09 am
really you have to keep moving if you're one of these companies don't apples and oranges indeed because neither amazon nor apple has to make money they don't have to be profitable in the same way netflix does because amazon is all about selling you other stuff and apple is all about selling you their hardware so they can even afford to lose money as they do on music because they're just trying to get you into the walled garden let me ask you one more thing before we go so you have a lot of the you can't essentially be the same you always gotta keep moving like the shark and i was reading something that's very interesting about the old william morris talent agency which now has a content component there too they just did this recent movie and i think it's endeavor contents what they company is now william morris and devore perhaps and they've got this new book are doing what's the movie with jane fonda and. so they are all over again candice bergen yet so they've also got
9:10 am
a movie out there doing content to write so even talent agency for morphing well they better because when you hear the phrase the golden age of television i don't think of grainy black and white kinescopes of milton berle and jackie gleason the golden age of t.v. is right now you mention reese witherspoon there has never been more competition for writers and other talent than there is right now helen cook host of the big picture here r t america thank you so much my friend as always fun to have you here about commish. and if you're concerned about the future of social security and medicare you may have been unsettled by the trumpet ministrations most recent official status report and media coverage that repeated their pessimistic projections one trump administration report said the medicare trust fund will be depleted twenty twenty six while the social security trust fund could be depleted in twenty thirty four
9:11 am
but dire predictions about the future of these and vital programs are virtual cut is a cottage industry in washington and experts who define the program say the problems are overstated while simple and effective solutions are on the table and here talk down some of these numbers are is kevin cashman the senior associate at the center for economic and policy research right here what do you make of these reports kevin i mean you wrote a blog post recently with an eye catching headline that talk to about the social security trustees agreed the program is well funded what goes through your take on what they say share so he said in twenty thirty four social security will face a shortfall so it will be able to pay i think it's around seventy nine percent of that to retirees you know that's a problem but if you look at the trustees report which is the report that was just released they also predict that over the next forty years the average annual wage for workers will increase i think it's fifty two percent. and they also just right
9:12 am
there in the report say this is the shortfall that we face it's two point eight four percent over seventy five year period. and you know if we raise taxes two point four percentage points that would completely solve the problem. it's not a big tax increase. and compared to how much wages are going to grow during the next forty years it's in the more important that workers. see their wages grow so it's oh you're saying there's some simple fixes out there as you say two point four percent tax increase now and we just had this big tax cut it's going largely to corporations but individuals get some of it at least at the front end they'll get some of it but what else other than a tax increase might be done we just reported the other day that in russia for example they're raising the retirement age and we've had these commissions i remember kevin mr social security claude pepper who was a first
9:13 am
a senator from florida and then a congressman and really until you were the died and a great champion of this they came out with all sorts of remedies. obviously raising taxes a pretty simple one what else is out there kevin that that might be politically acceptable as well as a good policy share so i think it's first important to say why there's a shortfall part of that is because wages are shipped above this cap so i think it's one hundred twenty thousand dollars people don't pay the social security tax on their income as any quality has grown more of the wages that social security use the tax or above that cap so that's inequality so how do you fix it in quality and that's a hard question but that would be one way to approach changing the caps. really lowering the the caps you say no getting rid of the cap can get rid of you or phasing in a higher income so that more income is captured by the tax so if you make two
9:14 am
hundred thousand dollars you're only paying the tax on the first hundred twenty thousand ok i get it you know what i thought you were saying was another proposal that's been bandied about you say well look if you make a million dollars you don't get social security is that another one that's on the table that people talk about with any significant degree of certainty that it could be proposed while people talk about that but i think one of the benefits of social security is that it is a universal program and that's also one of its strengths and it's politically you know people who are invested in and keeping it around because everybody gets. so i think addressing any quality is a better way to approach it also small tax increases like i said that are completely swamped by what the social security trustees say themselves wages will increase so there's no amount of economic growth we've got pretty great economy right now i mean things are going gangbusters and while not all the predictions are
9:15 am
so gangbusters for the next twelve years let's assume that there were great let's assume that we had let's let's take the administration at what their word is that they want three percent growth. for the next ten years that's still not enough to take care that the tax revenues would be raised from that the social security or rather the so security input would go through just that's still not enough to take care the problem is that. economic growth is totally separate from the trust fund which is funded by these but they were if you're working that work tribute right so the in the trustees predict you know if fancy actuary tables and stuff like that they already take that stuff to come into account so action is needed but it's not as dire as people say it is what's your prediction for what's going to be done anything in the near future and if not what in the longer term. i mean optimistically ninety percent of the democratic caucus in both the house and senate support expanding the program and they do that by getting rid of the cap like i
9:16 am
said raising taxes a small amount. and increasing benefits for people at the lower end of the wage scale so i think that that's been shifted from democrats used to have a consensus on cuts so that's what i think is the way forward well we'll hope that they come with some consensus to try to figure this out it's been such a political. problem for politicians over the years and every two years there's election in this country and that makes it really difficult it gets demagogued but it's a really important problem to be dealt with that we're so pleased that you've spent some of your time your professional career doing kevin cashen with super thank you so much for joining us appreciate it. and that's it for this time you can catch boom bust on direct t.v. channel three twenty one dish network channel two any working dreaming twenty four seven on pluto t.v. the free t.v.

so weak so powerful ready since the biggest party on the planet kicked off here in russia still three more weeks of glorious world cup to go but a lot of cities hosting world cup games of course russia is a hub of course for many of those traveling fans on one particular streets become a real weekend for the supporters from around the globe in a patrol car hits the unofficial. motto for moscow a city of more than ten million people and i cannot believe how the world cup was able to reach raul the map of landmarks in the city if you thought it was the crumble and possibly right square or the arbat street i'll have to tell you that
9:22 am
this time you're wrong where. are you going moscow right by. the. side of france where was. the boss because he was going to got on you go it was funny guy. like. three streets and the like someone out there on him you know you know say joe joe. so how do you find this street with the light show you. now trust me you will see us when we get. this very. red square. but here we have to make a life. going to be easy to make little scam or the dream.
9:23 am

9:24 am
oh the loads. yeah great early enough. turned out in force here in the beam created a special job by some famous russian so. i. say. i. was i would get a lot more of that later today when argentina faces croatia in nizhny novgorod will
9:25 am
cup hosts co-host just said marine you shared his thoughts on the upcoming much. grisha is a team with some talented experienced players that play in the best clubs in the world i don't think in the past they've had enough evolution for the next generation but they have still a group of players especially in the midfield players of the best we have in the world. but i think through asia has the team is capable to give up to give them up so that much in group do you which has been branded the group of death because of the strong teams it's a. great show will it those who see to see argentina found so that some of the most more let's catch up with a couple of them. getting
9:26 am
off a sign you know. a . product we. know me on our stuff for. a day to free me and then it's over again to. see. a lot of you be pushed. around the country i don't think. anybody i was. sorry for not because i said external and we put him on the i did. what i shot. a movie. set of mine and i said. it to. be contained to one of the. people so i could.
9:27 am
go i do you can do it i got it on t.v. and i got some. pretty nice barge knowing i. know who to. go to feel that they're missing. out of. the same part of me. but i left him for a mound of the promise from the condo is you know a little bit of it ever right to play the same principles the people got a picture of me. or a scar right now of all the events and highlights of last night to a special st iran the heart of the russian capital. it's another beautiful site for you on this moscow evening i wish i could say the football has been so beautiful it might not have been the high scoring games of it but intriguing in
9:28 am
a very different way on wednesday peter schmeichel on sunday was saying three results the last that was spain which he was still confidently predicted they were going to be the round but it was kind of scrappy and often in this match scrappy yes and very very exciting in the last fifteen minutes iran actually had the ball in the net that we all thought. the lineswoman cable side and it was taken to a bar to see if you thought it was one one and it was going to be it was going to be an even interesting more interesting into the game with spain did it. as i said on many occasions probably the best team in this tournament. and you know they played the game exactly the way they had to do it and watching the game was. tough luck for iran at the arena losing by one goal to spain with universal admission by experts and fans alike that they were very unlucky and they played very well known
9:29 am
the last it seems that the team the manager are in somewhat of an upbeat mood i. out of their ultimate kalash their decisive clash against portugal they teams manager speaking at the press conference said that it's too early to rule his country out the spanish players obviously war in a very positive mood although admitted that this game was really tough to win credit to iran for putting on such a performance and even as men and iranian players and the manager also praised the you know yes. yes the numbers we love how. these things sports people it's not something i. think is the opportunity to come and she and her team. to. find it because you
9:30 am
know. so now it goes to the last game in this group which will decide who goes next to the last sixteen spain portugal or iran so in many ways iran is short of. i think what they'll do is. they will try and keep it going all the quiet i think the lessons that we've learned from watching portugal against morocco and portugal and again spain is that portugal at this moment in time have not found any form they don't play was the two. and the one player that shining above everyone in the tournament is playing in that scene with those of course ronaldo you stand on although as the. run although it's unique is an international image for portugal he's unique and unique for. the merkin national team played very well quickly vigorously the players were in very good physical shape so it was difficult for portugal to play against them but christiana schooled goalkeeper
9:31 am
countries played very well helped out in difficult situations we can say that there are no. it seems in the championship all the teams are very good at playing though you had an opportunity to talk to the players and what did you say to them. the game against the run will be even more difficult because they already have three points they played very well against spain but they have a very good coach supportable noosa gover strength to win not play for a draw although a draw is also not bad you need to be very common castell and beat the iranians and after europe why russia it seems a very complex games against these teams will be very difficult. it's a lot more clear cut in group a and this is how it sounds now after today's result we saw a year ago i defeat saudi arabia now you know there's a lot of expectation if you're one might fall for you this quite easily after
9:32 am
russia put pipette as the saudis but he's very different just won't go next was it i think when we didn't get it i swear explaining it all on his one hundred appearances for europe why and the result is europe why free and russia are three which is in the russian capital when that goal went in because it means that against a lot of printout of an expectation russia or three what do you think of the euro coins in a state where they're definitely not firing on also in this they they've got a lot of room to to improve but you can argue with two games six points that this is this is proper proposal effect if tournament playing stuff you don't play your best game in the first game of the second you don't peak in the group face you know just try to get through the court face and then you progress from there so they now have a free game which i think is very important they now have a game where where they can experiment
9:33 am
a little bit and get the things that are working them right and it's not going to cost so much the game against russia do you think russia will do this experiment they. i think it's a sense of his always changing what he thought was he was going to play with in these championships i think he's kind of kidding he's eleven right now. i don't know if russia has peaked and they've played at the highest level they've scored eight goals which is incredible in two games start at a bios match i hope not i mean it it really is important that the whole host nation . stays in the tournament for the sake of the tournament and for the for the the atmosphere and for for for for people as opposed to still have a vested interest in this so. i just wanted to say you talking about you know the vested interest in how successful host nation piece of a great atmosphere russia are all playing today you still hear the holmes and some
9:34 am
chancing coming from from from down there the atmosphere everything. is annoying me but now i don't actually believe that was fair remains they still funtastic this tournament is already proving that football indeed is a unifying force after the shot of a fan celebration went viral. it was an amazing experience i think a lot of people are saying it was because of the they were helping me to watch the match but we were actually just celebrating for the opening ceremony all these guys i just met and we were celebrating dancing and all of a sudden i find myself in the air it's crazy. i used to play really fable but he basketball before my before my accident after my
9:35 am
accident part of my rehab was to play wheelchair basketball just to try it out as soon as i played it i fell in love with the game. really. the atmosphere over here is amazing and people are great everyone is so friendly you can you can really feel the love from everyone around you. yourself you feel. like. i think every obstacle is an opportunity for you to step up and just enjoy life more and. live life to the max. of course pressure plays out in two weeks but two other games as well improve see ten month play australia game that i will be watching of course and then france
9:36 am
take on australia. and be good into the looking patriotic ritual you can have to put on a very fast washed tonight. that's on today because when we go in tomorrow but then the kings all we can play. breaking breaking will set up a t.v. set. well michael might be in for a tough time there then the match we heard about kicks off a few hours in sylmar of them already had three points from their first game but the strains will do their best not to improve their standing in group c. also playing on first day off from peru the teams go face to face in the culture of bird which the two thousand kilometers east of where i am in moscow the french team two ton european champions one of the strongest but even they struggle to qualify for the tournament they beat a stranger in their first much they now share the top sloping group c. with. peru on the other hand faces an uphill struggle a bottom of the group list it's the first world cup for just south american nation
9:37 am
in thirty six years since so many people who fans here in moscow the last couple of days. keep in touch with all the for. for headlines right across the world cup on our site. if you haven't got it all the action as it happens make out your number one choice throughout the tournament. for me kevin after this short break.
9:38 am
what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. spilling dramatic developments only. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. to sit down and talk. again for good morning from moscow president trump a sign of executive order holding the controversial policy of migration family separation itself of the administration's zero tolerance approach towards illegal migration met without massive outcry some officials involved in the program of been
9:39 am
targeted by activists. right. right. right. trump administration officials have been sending babies and other young children to at least three. three tender age shelters in south texas wars and medical providers because. i know we're not nazi germany all right but we need be careful not to move in that direction it's not who we are in america he is taking america to a dark and ugly place is there anything you wish the senator can do what a surprising turn of events to the issues also taken on a religious dimension as caleb maupin explains. u.s. attorney general jeff sessions created a firestorm when he justified the policy of separating immigrant children from
9:40 am
their parents by invoking a bible passage from the book of romans that was signed. here to the apostle paul and his clear and was command in romans thirteen to a phase of the government because god is a dying or dying the go for it is for versus the mainstream media had a field day don't break god into this first of all i don't think god pictures you because i don't worship let him your putin and the only thing in the bible close to this is a king threatening to cut a baby in two and he was joking it's not a lol i'd also the bible isn't the government documents from a policy perspective you want as we'll be starting green eggs and ham saying we must keep children in a box we must keep them with the faux should we really be surprised about biblical justification for policies last year it was revealed that the white house is holding weekly bible study classes the classes are led by ralph drole injure the
9:41 am
founder of capital ministries based in washington d.c. capital ministries has been operating for over two decades preaching evangelism to elected public servants since our founding in one thousand nine hundred six our vision has not changed to evangelize elected officials and lead them toward maturity in christ it turns out of the man advise in the white house on matters related to the almighty is a former basketball player with a bachelor's degree in geography now he has no background in public policy or political science but he does offer his expertise on spiritual matters to those in power they are so teachable they're so noble their soul learned like jeff sessions he'll go out the same to teach him something else see him do it on camera the list of officials who have participated in ralph's classes is rather impressive you've got vice president mike pence you've got secretary. of education betsy device you've got secretary of state mike pompei oh and you've got energy secretary rick
9:42 am
perry all of them have sat down with pastor ralph to learn about the good book many americans are horrified that evangelical ministers are influencing policy and even giving classes in the white house they think why are these religious kooks influencing the fate of the free world but there are americans who feel the opposite that's the problem with this country you people have allowed religion to become a part of political policy. your religion i don't care what it is has no business being in government it says broad get it right is own religion right as a freedom of religion that's what the country's oh based upon right freedom so the president has things he has his rights as well believe in just separation of church and state i believe religion should be kept separate from politics haven't other presidents done that in the past too i mean if they're religious then they are allowed to do that as long as it's not interfering with actual governing trump did come forward and put a stop to the controversial family separation policies he may have cooled his
9:43 am
critics on that but in the process he seems to have opened up a new divide a divide about his administration's newly announced policy of invoking the bible to justify its decisions caleb mopp and r.t. new york. elsewhere for america's renewed economic sanctions against iran it seems now that some european companies are bearing the brunt the latest round of economic restrictions or not stuff to washington's withdrawal from the iranian nuclear deal the french economy minister has called on the e.u. to take its fight into its own hands now. because the american president has obviously decided to position himself as the world's economic policeman. to equip us with that prevents us from becoming the victims of his decision despite the french finance minister's economic defiance of the us europe hasn't done much to protect its companies from potential sanctioning by its ally but here's
9:44 am
a start last month europe announced its intent to bring back a blocking statute. approved of as the european commission we have the juicy to protect european companies so we now need to act and this is why we're launching the process of activating the blocking statute from nine hundred ninety six the statute bans e.u. firms from complying with foreign sanctions compensating them for any penalties that might incur but this hasn't been fleshed out yet and many companies can't afford to wait for brussels to come to the rescue and french companies will be able to stay because they need to be paid for the products they did live. in and they cannot be paid because there is no. european financial are also winding down operations in iran it would be suicide to do it in the business of funding for iran or iran related companies without explicit guarantees from the us government they have us by the throat because so much business is conducted and cleared in in
9:45 am
a desperate attempt to save e.u. companies europe's economic and foreign policy chief sent a letter to the us government they pleaded for exemptions from washington sanctions for companies that signed contracts after the iran nuclear deal was implemented but they work now the u.s. stand firm is on its amnesty towards iran no more. no more wealth creation for a rainy and kleptocrats no more acceptance of missiles landing in riyadh in the golan heights no more cost for expansions iranian power no more. the j c o p a way put the world at risk because of its fatal flaws so while politicians from across the pond try to sell each other their own truths it seems the e.u. has only two options leave iran and lose some money now or stay and lose some money later. than twenty six moscow time funds for joining that sofa with more this is
9:46 am
there's talk football action and the rest of the news in the rug thirty three minutes that is kevin i would saying thanks for watching r t international. stock market manipulation by insiders. or bet it by regulators like the s.e.c. all the f.c.c. is doing here is see why you can look up on urban dictionary what that means all they're trying to do is cover their tracks so that when the lawsuits happen they can say oh we were aware of it we warned against it we're on top of it but they are aiding and abetting the regulators or capture the regulators or venal the regulator to pay off. the.
9:47 am
kentucky. group who want to see you go green street. a co money city with almost no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the coal mines the said. that i was in love to see these people the survivors of disappearing before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here that it would become a ghost town. i never thought in a million years i would see that and it's how it's happened.
9:48 am
to welcome to worlds apart israel has long argued against a permanent iranian presence in southern syria and to some extent its arguments were heated by russia but as the united states occupation of northeastern fear is becoming more entrenched and permanent in nature and will israel act on russia's concerns well to discuss that i'm now joined by danielle a along for my deputy foreign minister of israel and former israeli ambassador to the united states ambassador it's very good to talk to you thank you very much for your time my pleasure i think you would agree with me that russia by and large has been responsive to israel's security concerns. it doesn't get involved when israel takes liberty to strike targets on the syrian territory obviously violating the
9:49 am
sovereignty of that country and yet you know russia allows that to happen do you think though this kind of arrangement has any limits that israel has to be mindful off certainly is what is very mindful of russian interests russian is a very friendly country very much value and appreciate our very good. relationship with russia i think it's also very important for russia is want to work together so many off our interests are converging and certainly in the case of ration or for nuclear material you dick. counterterrorism in many many things russia and israel are working together and on the issue of syria and iran i think both countries both israel and russia have a very very strong interest of having stability in
9:50 am
syria of having you know ending any. forces that may. provoke a door provoke and cause a lot of violence both in syria and also in the surrounding countries jumping in i think russia is certainly has an interest of not seeing forces that were active that would act provoke at tivoli in in syria but i think those forces at least from the russian point of view include not only the erratic and forces but also american forces and to some extent is really for.
