by those questionable rebels now most of those rebels are tied to the al qaeda linked al nusra a terrorist group but let's focus on those weapons that they used robert fisk an investigative reporter was able to trace those weapons back to that very factory in bosnia he was able to get a hold of the factories logbook and getting in touch with the former weapons control director the director recognized his signature in the logbook and from there was able to determine who the buyer was it's a warranty for the hundred twenty millimeter mortar launch oh this is standard it went to saudi arabia it was posts of a supply of five hundred mortars i remember the so the shipment will the saudis came to a factory to inspect the weapons at the beginning of twenty sixteen the response from saudi officials was pretty much a denial they said that the investigation was vegan undefined however their response seemed pretty vague as well so to really be a is a leading voice within the international community in support of

a diplomatic solution to the conflict in syria while at the same time working with our neighbors and allies to counter the growth of forces of extremism but it's not just saudi arabia the former weapons director says that nato and the united states pretty much run the show at the weapons making facility or oil production off to the bulls and wars under the control of the americans and nato who are always coming whom and they know each and every piece of weaponry that leaves a factory. we also asked nato for a response but they didn't have any details to share even though the weapons were actually made to the nato standards need to does not own or transfer arms or ammunition for any further questions we would refer you to national authorities now another trace from the basement of this former terrorist base in aleppo is the markings on the casing of a missile now if you take a look the first number here this represents the type of missile the second number

however is the stock number you'll notice that it contains the figure zero one now that's the nato code representing the united states it turns out that this t o w anti-tank missile was manufactured at a facility in the united states by the raytheon systems company this is not the first time this has happened syria is actually littered with weapons that are made to nato standards and some of which have actually been manufactured in the united states the question now is how much do washington and nato know about their weapons falling into the hands of the very terrorists they claim to be fighting there is a deafening silence a purposeful lack of interest a purposeful apathy and the reason for this is simple the us government and the military industrial complex and the corporate owned media that functions as an echo chamber for the military industrial complex actually does not care the us

government prosecutes those who they say aid and abet terrorism well guess what american war contractors are aiding and abetting terrorism but the us judicial system the justice department the long arm of american law enforcement will not be used against the same military corporations which in fact are subsidized receive a form of welfare from american taxpayers every year. the russian mold inside the us embassy in moscow britain's guardian paper has been reveling in the story since it revealed that scoop spoke quite as it seems it was done to fix planes. everybody loves a spy drama mystery suspense and a russian firm fertile. the name of the agent is stapling. my name is evelyn so then you are a russian spy. this

guardian story had every ingredient for a thriller recipe the u.s. secret service as quite clearly stems from the very name is one of the most enigmatic agencies of the u.s. government its main function is to protect the lives of u.s. presidents ministers the top political brass and that is where the russians according to the guardian planted a mall the russian spy had been working under texted in the heart of the american embassy in moscow for more than a decade she had plenty of time to gather intelligence without supervision bissell said the guardian's head of investigations claims she was operational for a whole decade in that time through the agency's internet in e-mail systems she had access to all kinds of highly classified stuff including the shared jewels of the president and vice president all of that according to the guardian the woman fled

to the physic be russia's security agency before being let go last year over security concerns they had lying the narrative the details looked spectacular in the scoop which was even projected to link to a spy ploy in washington d.c. itself or activities of stealing and sharing information could shed more light on how the russians were able to hack twenty sixteen presidential election office of the d.n.c. except the secret service was well and impressed by the reporting and no doubt of shame or embarrassment but because of the facts according to the media release within the agency the woman in question held the position of a foreign service national these employees have their duties outlined very strictly as by default the secret service views every one of them surprises as potential spies the woman's responsibilities were limited to things like translation cultural guidance administrative support and i don't mean to offend anybody here but this.

sounds more like the job description of a tourist guide rather than a spy a material employee and i wish i could say the guardian did not know all these things when publishing the article but they did prior to the guardian publishing their article the u.s. secret service provided they are editor in their official statement clearly refuting in found information despite all this the article was published as is after all everybody loves this spy drama but some plots a better be saved for hollywood script. or wallace particular spy story has been dismissed even by the u.s. secret service america's politicians have been doubling down on the legations of russian meddling they've pledged to protect the vendors midterm elections from foreign interference. our democracy itself

is in the crosshairs of pain by russia to try to weaken and divide the united states as threat is not going away prevent foreign interference in our elections to prevent russian and other foreign influence and the russians try to hack into and steal information candidates and government officials alike cyber attacks against voting infrastructure along with future intrusions malicious cyber actors are getting elected officials it goes beyond the elections it goes to russia's intent to undermine our democratic values. content is created tested and hosted on platforms such as you tube reddit and pinterest it's pushed to twitter and facebook with their standing audiences in the hundreds of millions and it's targeted at the most receptive this is a problem of the entire information ecosystem this is cross-platform reddit confirm hundreds of ira created accounts tumblr did.

a lot of pride pride related content less news more memes this isn't just a couple of platforms this is music caps this is video games this is me i'm sharing it it's much broader than twitter and google. and. when you look it's just hilarious when i hear that funny pictures can undermine american democracy but i think it's just paranoia that goes off the scale it's not respectable for american lawmakers to make a sensation out of nothing we're not the ones who invented social media and we're not the ones who insisted on making social media open to everybody they're going to blame russia for whatever happens in the november elections whatever goes wrong whatever problems we have it's russia's fault there are no racial divisions there is no way in quality of income there are no problems in this country except the ones that are made by russia this is ridiculous what's going on here. they have to use something to deflect criticism from their own rulers their own rules ship this

is absolutely getting out of control right now i have not seen it like this before and it's getting more and more dangerous when you think of the relations between two superpowers they don't want better relations with russia they want to push this line and the yes there's a war between trump and his intelligence. the volatile atmosphere in a suburb of paris has forced one group to end its work to go into volunteers the areas not safe enough anymore with even basic security lacking the group's been working for almost two years now so that out more than two hundred fifty thousand meals along with other supplies shelter devinsky has more. in paris is a gritty eighteenth hante small town hundreds of migrants clustered together on the streets they gather here as it's where food is distributed by a local farmer to agree but after twenty months solid data to me call wilson looks set to close its doors saying they just can't take anymore all sorts of it's

become more tense we're serving around seven hundred breakfasts every day to migrants who live in terrible conditions they have nothing not even tense they sleep on the ground and sometimes woken up by the police in the morning they kick them and use tear gas to move them so when they come to us they're stressed and nervous twice last week we had to stop serving food to let the tension calm down this is something new for us so yes we're stopping migrants have been expelled by police in this area many times felipe tells me that despite this they come back and every time they do this situation becomes even more desperate from the beginning our mission was to serve hot drinks and bread and we've done this for twenty months every day during the last month or so we started questioning our mission as we day one i volunteered to be put in danger. who is to blame for this situation for not giving enough help to the migrants on the streets is this the mayor of paris is

this the government of france. is on for us is both the state is responsible for people on the streets for taking in migrants at the same time the authorities in paris are restricting access to water taps in the summer is irresponsible they also have a responsibility towards the miners their miners who you sleep on the street and in the camp of drug addicts me the state nor the parish administration is doing its job. with the authorities not providing enough support the volunteers are giving up just a stone's throw away from haiti is an area known locally as crack hill that's also made things worse for those working to help the migrants felipe says that some of the drug addicts are also coming for food handouts and causing problems. the drug addicts are evacuated recently but nothing was done to help them and they came back to an outcome for a breakthrough is to create additional tension very aggressive including two other volunteers so this is an explosive situation. while we're recording the interview

me to think distribution point to. individuals approach us all move you guys or lambo media which serves. i was here i was the only man i was you know so basically we keep in mind that some of the people on the streets are very uncomfortable if like me we're not filming it he says but they just aren't comfortable with the cameras. be it if you see this it's the last exam i. think. more people are coming nothing's being done about it and there are the drug addicts as you saw it's impossible to film people here it's becoming more difficult than before we think the situation is explosive and a person is in real danger. by shutting up shop so legality may call wilson know that they are cutting off a vital lifeline for phone ripping economists but as well as doing it out of

concern for their volunteers they hope the move to prompt the authorities to stop ignoring the plight of migrants and force them to take action do you can ski r.t. paris. turkey's vowed to retaliate against the u.s. after washington impose sanctions on two officials in ankara over the detention of an american pastor to turkey rejected an earlier request by the us three let him return to his home and. is currently under house arrest turkish president says the u.s. is being disrespectful. shown patience but the step america has taken does not fit a step taken towards a strategic partner in america has shown serious disrespect towards turkey on wednesday the trumpet ministrations slaps economic sanctions on two senior turkish officials and said any property they have in the us will be blocked in response to settle introduce sanctions of its own freezing the assets of u.s.

officials in the country and those targeted will also be prevented from doing business with turkey so how did this scandal develop while the pastor at the center of the dispute is andrew branson he was detained two years ago in connection with an attempted coup against the government is accused of espionage and assisting terrorist groups a deal between the u.s. and turkey to secure his release broke down and was then transferred to house arrest over health concerns he still faces thirty five years in jail though if he's found guilty that's led to a heated dispute between the countries we spoke earlier to former turkish ambassador to the united states ozment folklore he says this case just highlights the current problems between what are supposed to be close allies. this is a relationship that has been strained and nothing only because of faults i mean not really serious but i feel. weather for the regional we have it sure success failure as it is all the issues as it came up and it is altered in

a situation about it was an accumulation of a different plot but i t's of. problems the pastor bronson case is it is true the basic details the us has compass is extremely unhappy with the areas that developments in turkey as the absolute right to purchase as five hundred missiles from russia have been objections from my neck allies including the us that this would create problems for over. nato partners but i think the end of the day turkey has it either to beef up its. depend system and to deal with this one hundred says it is him place and it's going on. the bodies of three russian journalists killed in the central african republic have now been delivered back to russia the three reporters were killed in an ambush

by unidentified militia fighters on tuesday. c.n.n. your primary information from the investigation is that on edge into finding the

good politicians do something good to. put themselves on the lawn. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or something or want to be rich. but you'd like to be close this is what before three of them or can't be good . interested always in the waters of mccall's. question. so small seemed wrong when old roles just don't call. me old yet to say proud this day comes to educate and in detroit because betrayal.

when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground the. previously on the great american pilgrimage. and this is just a normal is the bigger additional chill misdoing cheese or images i ave in the kitchen to do a flat when i was young oh good so i start to see. where we go there night fall of zero. everybody i'm stephen baldwin gushing with task hollywood guy usual suspects favorite movie proud american first of all i'm just a george washington and r.v. enthusing just uncle steve to me is a good stride the big boy because this is my buddy max the famous financial guru and will he's a little bit different i've understood your abraham lincoln high not that there

were no windows up last but not least my larger than life. the night an aspiring star rio. with all the drama happening in our country i'm shooting the road to have some fun. meet every day americans who knows. what's america to our ancestors suffered the most and see how things got so crazy i was naked. keep my finger on clips of the start to bridge the gap this is the great american pill each. time.

problem on your farm don't know yet now i am an american a while so when i was president there was a civil war going on the very contentious a lot of anger but every soul now and so you can correlate that. is far as the liberals and conservatives just a little bit of some political disputes with knowing north korea. all right what's going on leisure they were launching a plane back on monday yeah well apparently we're all friends and that. the liberals on trying to sit rigged election to trump and all the liberals of the russian liberals and we're cool russia is not right and then russia pissed because they are not treated like shit right and then now they're on our. well i have top blanket with my son to school them from time to time for stealing up oh i know i'm . young he died tragically young and it's time to mind it really

upset my life i have a last visit. so some liberals are saying that russia has something to do with the election yet but yet they think hillary didn't win because they bring. you lie sure that's my trump one really doesn't make sense doesn't. it. steven heads back inside cafe pino to meet with a regular customer who's running for the senate from the state of arizona. and what are you. i think stephen baldwin teacher of good luck with your thank you for coming in. so arizona is. in my heart i did a t.v. show called the young wrongdoers the western. a.b.c. family's the t.v. show of the pony express so i thought we were going to shoot

a pilot and there was no way this thing was going to serious three years we did it and it was a blessing it's really cool and i stayed in tucson another five years. and commuted to los angeles. and what's really horrible so i'm here for a period where we should still. early want to just hang out and see some friends. there's a difference between if you were born a muslim or the so tell me that story. i'm just curious to know this is how you know it's just my brain to calibrate what i want to ask you because it would be very different if you were born into the muslims than if you married into this and so i don't know. me there. grew up in arkansas and the first thing i learned about islam was in the sixth grade social studies class and learned about world culture and i learned that in the middle east all the women

were property and walk two steps behind the men and then in seventh grade we learned about world religions and then after every chapter of my teacher would say i was in public school but my teacher would say and they're going to hell and because they're not christian they don't believe in jesus and so when we got to. islam it was. it was muhammad is a good man yeah seriously so in college i started meeting people who were middle eastern exchange students and i was and still am a minister and police would go up to them and tell them how awful they were that they beat their wives and they didn't believe in jesus so i was trying to convert them to christianity and they would explain to me well no that's not what islam says i mean some people are bad to women but islam is and and we do believe in jesus in fact we have an entire chapter on the mother of jesus of how he was born and all of his miracles so then i started learning more about islam and the more i studied it the more i liked it and it spoke to me. before that you're

a christian now. that's amazing that's an easy testimony. and for me i didn't change religions i expanded on my understanding of my relationship with god is just a little reading so you. know he's very important profit and teacher in islam. because what's fascinating is here sits two individuals from two totally different walks of life i'm a guy that was a dumb jock from long island new york whose dad was a public school teacher and football coach i grew up on a friday night lights fighting every weekend drunk. and yet there's things i know about your face now. and things you know about my faith. and the things you know about your faith based on the fact

that you know things about my faith and yet. you choose. to trust just the truly is just interpretation a lot just means god in arabic just like a law is not the god of the christian if you read the koran it's all. the same prophets i mean look at abraham as in the same god everybody so far as your saying god doesn't ask right to the almighty. is the same father. only called the law according to the most the same god that we don't believe that god had a child and that jesus was a miracle birth but that did not make him these eight the sunday times a child of god he more than he made the rest of us that were all children of god. and then put it on the same entity yes we believe it's the same entity the same profits this isn't even the same story it's just the some details changed. you know i bet you were a lot more similar than we realize as well stephen is being schooled on the second

largest religion in the world. max is well. below us because at this time in lincoln he's not a lincoln. my dad was a i five and i five. but the american dream is still alive i i don't know what to say about that honestly because it's just an american dream get so many subjects and honestly my parents. were. going to give me an education and to demo suppose that. and america i feel is still you know went off truly but you know things are changing. just says you know the u.s. is prospering and so are our countries and third world countries are slowly becoming more and more you know. like a logical developed yes exactly and so with things i doubt honestly i feel like you

know the world is a lot more. you know has made a lot more potential no matter where you go. you're in arizona you are in for of the federal state see correct us. you're running for the u.s. senate. where are you now in your journey. of empowering women i have been on that journey of empowering women a very long time when i became a a civil rights and social justice advocate here in arizona basically i was running organizations going around the state telling people you know about misinformation about muslims or bringing groups together to work on civil rights issues and i think that that's very empowering to have a woman in leadership in a woman taking the lead then you know i decided to you know run for u.s. senate and so for me feel bad that one is to say that i have the.

personal presence to one act and that i'm willing to do when and i'm not asking permission and i'm not waiting for that you're right. and then soon is giving that same thought process matter when it came with those folks still back in arkansas that the two themselves. but i'm ok with asking for permission little jay with them i'm not going to judge somebody that's not the same place in life that i'm not some of yeah humans are i mean don't know i think they're dumb don't in the little wake up and i looked at a map with. a loaf of bread you know. everybody's on their own journey all i can do is plant seeds and hope that a beautiful flower grows i'm not responsible for the flower. so much as chance since i was president of the united states. i know some of those students. very dark and sunnies. and a blank at. that time can reach out for a minute.
