11:30 am
it was very abusive in there. we were isolated from our mike i was isolated from my family it's my community my sisters my parents i was completely left alone. my parents were not canadian citizens they're there from europe and my parents believed they would get deported if they didn't follow that. and what the government wanted and maternity homes mothers were routinely denied their right to see holder feed their babies there are still some mothers who do not know when they're delivered a boy or girl being told well it's none of your business to hold my daughter i
11:31 am
actually had to ask three times and i met first i said it quietly and then i said it a little louder and then the last time that i asked i had to yell and i had to yell bring me my baby now. and then the nurse stopped looked at the doctor for permission and i was quite surprised that the nurse would have to ask for permission for me to hold my own daughter since i'm her legal guardian and my daughter in my arms and. and then the real went. black i started to get i started to pass out and then they took her away from me. i met my daughter she she actually found me. so she phoned me. and she said. you don't know who i am and
11:32 am
as soon as she said that i knew who she left. we talked on the phone for about six months getting to know each other getting familiar with each other building some trust she needed to feel safe because our children were told that there was something wrong with us they were told and alternate story that we were drug addicts prostitutes. zimbabwe is going to the polls today for the first time since formally the robert mugabe was i stood as much hope to you at home and abroad that this marks a rebirth for the african nation is a breakdown of why this election matters. this election in zimbabwe is
11:33 am
a huge milestone for what's been a very troubled country with an even more troubling financial crisis and here is why is the first time since ninety days either name of robert mugabe isn't featured on the ballots he was the helm of the country for almost four years and it seemed nothing good choice and no way. to project from his presidential through was as quick as it was unexpected the big coup unfolded offer a fight for power between my wife and his right hand man. the first lady also googy grace in the voice present nicknamed as the crocodile cues the other poisonings in death rates and it seemed grace had won her way with a ninety three year old husband the vice president suddenly the army stick to taking control of the capital just as the parliament was moving to impeach robert mugabe he quit to allow a smooth transfer of power in the crocodile finally got his teeth into running the
11:34 am
country. so let's look at the main candidates then emerson manning is a member of the ruling party and the incumbent president he was appointed after mugabe was ousted the front runner is predicted to take forty percent of the vote although one surprisingly he hasn't been given the backing of mcgarvie who claims he grabbed power illegally when his closest rival is nelson chamisa he's the current leader of the opposition and recently qualified pastor to and if elected he would become zimbabwe's youngest ever present at forty years old the two candidates are polar opposites not only in the generations they are representing but also in their political views. favors good relations with russia and china while his rival is pro western he traveled to the u.s. to to meet state department officials and members of congress at the end of last year political analyst and author howard feldman believes that washington has an interest in this election i think it's a fairly dangerous. fairly obvious. the us are going to have some form
11:35 am
of influence recent days we have seen the withdraw of funding from the american from n.g.o.s we also do know that there are still sanctions that the u.s. have applied to this infinitely some form of. politicizing of the oil interference of the elections by the americans and i think america is playing a quite a dangerous game. because if the wrong candidate as far as they're concerned which is been a. power if he is able to succeed and it does look like he's going to that america will certainly be left on the outside of it having used the influence financial and political influence during the run up to the election i don't believe it's going to be viewed positively once a result has been announced. many countries do have strict rules on what can and
11:36 am
can't be done during political campaigns and zimbabwe is no exception in fact some of its restrictions are quite unusual.
11:37 am
does mark one year since the death of. a journalist to work for arabic he was killed by islamic state shelling in syria is just twenty five years old well in his own or. special award for the best reporting from war zones in the first prizes will be presented. here in moscow is also created a documentary about how his work in syria.
11:38 am
no i know where his body is buried deep in my heart i'm still hoping he's alive on that day he called me and asked me to pray for him i asked him to be careful and not risk his life being a hero i didn't want to lose him i was so afraid to lose him. but he loved life the morning of the day he died i was worried my mind started to come up with the scariest of images i was afraid he'd be captured by isis so i had a very bad feeling. we were near the front line the syrian army was battling i saw our work was over and we were about to pack or equipment khaled stood near it i put helmets on him i just wanted to take a photo as a memory of my work with the film crew when the explosion came.
11:39 am
along i realized something had happened i didn't know what exactly out of habit i started to film everything after i began filming i saw a lot on the camera. i tried the room then realize. i couldn't move my legs i couldn't see anything my eyes were covered in blood mixed with doest a call for khaled but nobody also did. a check his facebook page and saw his old photo and the text below said john was khalid al had to have died a hero i started to cry my husband fell on the floor i just ran out of our house and screamed.
11:40 am
about i don't want to go on that mission but how do you get here i had a rule she was bright and very determined she was a good journalist and you could see that by his reports he did a lot not only for journalism but for his model and as well he helped people soldiers she would bring them food and prompt mind. to action all my friends know that i want to do something good for people families did a lot for me and now i'm trying to do everything for my loved ones that's my main goal.
11:41 am
you should. put themselves on a lot. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be present. want to. have to be right to be right this is what. real people. are interested in milwaukee. thanks.
11:42 am
again guys see over global conflicts feelings of helplessness some spending more time on social media could mean you're suffering from symptoms of a new mental condition because therapists in the us to you say they are seeing increasing numbers of patients with what they call donald trump anxiety disorder apparently it affects both his supporters and critics to those that dislike him worry that the world will end while supporters do feel isolated from society and even their families to democrats also fret about the origin of trump success the two thousand and sixteen election which they insist was rigged by russia with more on that is kind of more pay. ideas that are commonly labeled as conspiracy theories at this point are most commonly associated with right wingers and top supporters in
11:43 am
the public mind however it seems that liberals also have their share of tinfoil hat thinking polls show that fifty five percent of democrats believe that russia actually did tamper with the voting results only thirteen percent of republicans buy into this idea which is pretty universally rejected even by the staunchest russia bashers the i know of no evidence that through cyber intrusions boats were altered or suppressed they did not change any of voto ways or anything of that sort so if russia did indeed carry out election fraud on behalf of donald trump why would james clapper and john brennan and the intelligence community say that they didn't do that are fifty five percent of democrats actually convinced that the cia is covering up for russia that's quite a conspiracy theory we decided to ask new yorkers about it do you think that russia changed the voting results in the last election no no not at all ok and fifty five
11:44 am
percent of democrats apparently believe that why media that's why. propaganda fake news trump says it best they're delusional misinformed or they have their own agenda beyond that something else do you think that russia changed the voting results in the last election yes can you tell us now well i'm sure through technology they were able to somehow finagle possibly i think so i've heard that a lot so. yeah maybe but i don't know that they found. one story that you keep bringing up and attack president trump and i think they're going to try to milk as much as they can. i personally don't see any evidence of fresh millionaire elections i lived through privileged. our media is a pearl and wall in the united states if people don't know the truth about what's
11:45 am
really happening pressure is not the enemy that they make it out to be some people think that the moon landing was fake others think that nine eleven was an inside job and it seems that the majority of rank and file democrats believe that somehow russia got into voting machines and changed votes for hillary clinton to vote for donald trump the truth is out there but perhaps people should look for it someplace else. r.t. new york while the frenzy i would trump which even saw his hollywood star vandalized last week rai response from prankster.
