the russians are targeting members of congress the u.s. midterm elections are just around the corner and russia's attacking teams to haunt the united states russian election interference in the twenty eight hundred midterms the russians have not reduced their hacking it's even the first thing the prodigy's at the conference will tell you right there which could also be a great excuse when someone asks the suits why the systems vulnerable to say the least by the way when the good will hackers look back at their previous conference they wrote if russia can attack our election so can others iran north korea isis or even criminal or extruding this groups because let's face it if hacking an american election is child's play perhaps it's time the guys in charge did their homework on where the real threats are. new revelations of emerged from

cia directed gina hospital's positive involvement in the torture of terrorist suspects the fellows who were released by the national security. to two thousand and two when hospital run a secret cia detention center in thailand they described torches sessions run by a psychologist working as contract is for the cia techniques ranged from physical and psychological rassmann to isolation in a box. dittos included hooded confinement of machinery in the large box forced nudity adjusting his shackles and slamming him against the wall and panel interrogators covered the subjects head with the hoods and left him on the water. shaking and asking god to help him repeatedly. interrogators were going to get the truth out of the subject eventually. seems one of these files contains details on the interrogation of an al qaeda terrorist captured in two thousand and two he spent four years in cia black sites including the one in thailand gina house

falls watch he was subsequently then transferred to guantanamo bay where he is now and his case was highlighted by can twenty fourteen by the senate intelligence committee the committee released a report saying interrogators had attained no useful information about. him however when questioned by the senate before taking office a spill insisted that intelligence gained from al qaeda suspects had proved vital the president has asserted that torture works do you agree with that statement. senator i i don't believe that torture works i believe as many people directors who have sat in this chair before me that valuable information was obtained from senior al qaeda operatives that allowed us to defend this country and prevent another attack former cia officer ray mcgovern says war crimes were perpetrated the blocks

that possible rather. gina has told it was not was playing fast and loose with the truth at her hearing and she was allowed to do that if she was allowed to classify the derogatory information on herself before the hearing she supervise the torture to see the graphic and to tail out run the interior walling that's nothing short of banging someone's head into a wall in the water treatment as waterboarding condemned by all manner of nations because was practiced by the japanese general or to war crime and so to see this kind of thing revealed in gory detail the only solace i get from this is the fact that our system of law sometimes works and that is that the national security archive that did a freedom of information request for this got these details. israeli prime ministers taking in over another large scale protest in tel aviv against the

recently passed nation state law which arab israelis claim makes non jews second class citizens but even that the army says the rallies underline the need for such a low. image. what do. we received clear testimony of the urgency of the nation state law we saw palestinian flags in the heart of tel aviv we heard the calls with blood and fire we will redeem palestine many of the demonstrators want to repeal the law of return cancel the national anthem for the power flag and cancel israel as the nation state of the jewish people now it's clearer than ever that the nation state law is necessary we passed this law and we will uphold it saturdays protest was the second in as many weeks and saw tens of thousands of arabs and jews turn out in tel aviv they carried banners in both hebrew and arabic appealing for democracy equality for the law to be abolished some sign said resist apartheid. the nation state laws passed last

month it's similar to a constitutional amendment and recognizes israel as the homeland of the jewish people it also underlines the quote unique right to self-determination but it also downgrades arabic from being an official language critics say the law not only undermines fragile guarantees of equality in israel but it also opens the door for open discrimination against non jews. this law is trying to incite in the state a war between brothers a war between the jews and the arabs and we will not accept it we have lived together and we will die together in this land. called for equally water flowing. really quite right i mean the rich while i'm on that action i love. i'm not asking for ranks i deserve to have these this is what i deserve as someone believes in this country i'm not scared of anything but i fear that this law being a basic law will grant got the most from which we will suffer discrimination

because more. this is. the language. against our future in this land. real people are obvious and we can't agree for this law we discussed the controversy around this new law then with a puddle of experts this law actually doesn't change anything for the citizens of israel who does not discriminate or take any rights through on the law simply says that israel is a nation state of the jewish people it which has been long overdue and this law is a basic law and that means it's constitutional which means it. apartheid the state for jewish people only well i think that what you just heard is the exact example of why we need it you have a person who is not an israeli citizen these my country in israel all citizens are

equal under the law third biggest party in the parliament is their party what i find shocking is that people who can then the bare existence of the state of israel in any border are saying that we are in a state which i think is just appalled this law says that this land is only for half of the population and half would be discriminated against it does not identify the borders of israel which means that the system is disk. mission includes not only palestinians inside israel but also palestinians in the west bank and those are sort of the. injured then scenario where sometimes people mistakenly call the west bank it's a you didn't run it's a jew free state as a jew not allowed to be there this law does nothing about you then scenario unfortunately we would really love marriage that's an area where just doesn't touch it that's not true do you agree that we should have a palestinian state or not there finitely not but i think when we have a long using is that you want another state but you also are you going on right israel this is telling me i can't have citizenship but he wants to continue to

occupy me an occupying my land and he says i cannot have a state and we cannot have a two state solution and yet he speaks that it is a democracy and it's eighteen monday morning here in moscow thanks to him with us ahead more of the allegations against police in the us after an officer is investigated over threats to shoot trespasses and watching r t international. when lawmakers manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the fine. be the one percent. nor middle of the room

you know it could be a ton of money in overtime to shoot somebody going to steal well police they say they're examining the nature of sergeant steven burrows interaction and an internal investigation they say has been opened. regardless of the context or the intent those statements are entirely unacceptable and represent a fundamental disregard for the conduct we expect and the standards we hold ourselves to we look at it from the perspective of the person on the other end of the field interview and to hear those words isn't just scary it projects an image of law enforcement officers who take use of force lightly seems steamrollers been a police officer for ten years this is not his first suspension from judy either two years ago he was present when a handcuff suspect was kicked despite that he was later promoted to the position of sergeant former police officer dominic believes the police are being put in an impossible situation the. the problem is is that simply you get now we have this war and cops between the people of police and the public and council people filled

with emotion and you going to watch are you going to watch your our t.v. we're going to watch any new news out there and as a police officer who's a person you're going to be a motion to be triggered by what you see you know what is right you know what is wrong these men or women are taking this on the street and they're becoming highly emotional and they're sick of that being backed up they're sick of the media attacking them they're sick of the public being fed lies and believing lies and this is the end result of what's happening you're getting physical outburst you're getting verbal outbursts and you're getting people men or women who wear that badge not thinking and they're finally saying what they want and it's volatile it's not a good thing because it's going to be misconstrued and it's going to be used against them in the long run. germany's finance minister says donald trump's new trade tariffs a damaging the economy and says it won't let washington dictate who it does business with the u.s. has already doubled steel and a million tariffs for its key nato ally turkey of course. we

means and this is what he gets can't he is playing out and i think. this is a this is a policy we have to get certain amounts that's for and i don't see it's a moment apart from the public appearances of europeans no read and so or conquer strategy. royalists in australia rejoice did you know you can order your very own free portrait of the queen very nice to well you have to do is contact your local m.p. and sign up for the nationhood programs goodie bag. thank

against pl manifolds the party of the regions would present but a legal team received an official statement from the national anti christian bureau confirming this but so in the two years that we've been hearing about the amount of full investigation there's been no record of any crime committed on ukrainian soil no charges and no case we have no official documents that confirm this fact it's only a q. and a book but i would little sing in a twenty five monday morning for me kevin i would in the rest of the team if things have a so much for cheating tourists this is a key international the next live update in thirty five minutes from now. they gave us national camera. roughly once the show and some will pay for them.

to joan cool videos and so on with the roughly stringing up. going down more on string i don't roughly don't t.v. . but politicians do something. they put themselves on a lot they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or somehow want to be rich. to do like to be for us this is what before three of them can't be good. interested always in the waters about how. this should.

the way to the united states is dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. most just as the little simple they want to become most. dishonest about what many of them look for refuge in the so-called sentries sides of the refuse to share information about undocumented migrants with federal authorities the last person asked frankel mom. was you know you don't have an upper echelon i guess i'm in a lot of class and i want that. they have water they all choose to stay in the country with donald trump in the white house all over for the gravels. the who could be up to the. offense it struggles of many couples. who were trying to push

the political both of you out to do it multiply. the welcome to. each other not say he won oscars stalled in globe space films are cult classics part of american consciousness now all over a stone's latest project was to film an extent. series of interviews with russia's vladimir putin. i caught up with the director himself to talk about the experience my over so it's great to have you with us today so if you're having a great trip in moscow there's just got here so your book compared to your extensive interviews with putin is published by you called the putin interview for

a day his climax to my strange life as an american filmmaker climax your career is the best thing you've ever done. you know i have to take the point of view that it could be the last film too you never know time is seems more precious when you get a little bit older and as a filmmaker it's a very young profession you know and very few and america especially it kind of goes fast you don't get off in another chance so i felt like this was a kind of a climax not that it's a feature film but that it's the most safe at this time in history the most forbidding character to american media to american and western europe to i think forbidding kind of. cross into that into another world i'm glad i got here i mean i did mr castro and i did mr chavez i did mr

arafat's and also as a yahoo as a character when he was out of office back when he was out of office he's now in power forever it seems but these characters all led me to this moment with mr putin . and i frankly i enjoyed the meeting him i met him originally on the at the one of my trips to russia because i was interviewing snowden a lot we were doing research with ed and a lot of the movie and soden was represents what ad this point of view was so getting that information took time and we came back and we're trying to be accurate the last scene of the movie was shot in moscow so after a by one i met mr putin which is in the back room of a theater in moscow a play an old like hundred sixty s. play he was attending to promote folkloric culture. we met the back and i asked him about mr snowden and he gave me the russian version his

version of what happened which was fascinating different than what we had been told in the public. newspapers and so forth but anyway long telling the story quickly is getting back to the end of the movie of snowden we shot in moscow to a weekend with with ed and then we turned around a few days later we went to the kremlin and we shot mr putin over three days and. at that time we didn't know if this would go on who was simply you know take it as it comes like you're doing and play it by ear it was spontaneous i gave melissa quick questions i was areas that i was going to cover but it wasn't limited he didn't say i was totally spontaneous i didn't have any limitation you know all the way to one to us and as you can see every day i look different he was always the same he looked very together i was sometimes i. could play who was blowing in the

wind. i guess i changed appearances several jobs but. in other words i'm the opposite of an american anchor i don't look like megan kelly i will look like you even. sam that's a compliment. i know what kind of great effort it takes to get that kind of accent but. that's not easy i mean a lot of russian journalist and top journalists don't get that kind of access right and i know how much effort it took you to make this happen and make it come together and then the minute this comes out it was so talked about in russia and obviously the whole american press right away lashed out at you saying yourself flattering to that you're a bad entry or just want to do you care to get under under your skin because that's a lot of work you did with putting it was a lot of work but i didn't consider my i never said i was a journalist and i didn't pretend to be what i well that this is a book. a movie a film director you know me from the films and you may know me from some of the

past interviews i did with the public figures but i'm not pretending to be anything else i know you said in response that you know you don't have an opinion about anything that you're doing that you're nurture role will the opinions of change because then i'm talking about the putin movie but at the same time i watched a series you said a lot of flattering things about you know do you feel like you manage to stay objective and neutral. i don't i don't and i think if you see the movies i do it's not the high try to stick to what i feel is the truth and i don't take i didn't say one false word to mr p. at all i did say what i meant when i said it when i said to him and one of the i think one of the first things i said was it strikes me that you're this you're a son of russia because when you came into the country at a time when it was just in the dumps it was one nine hundred ninety nine two thousand the place was a mass. the real economic story and what you did was you turn things around no one

can take that away from you and i think that's one of the reasons he's still popular is that because he brought a sense of place destiny a sense that we we are russian we have much to be proud of we have a history and he really is certain the concept of a sovereign country which was crucial because russia was not a sovereign country from approximately ninety one two to two thousand it was losing that sovereignty completely the united states was and other people were walking all over the place and basically monitoring whatever they want and they were all over the the nuclear certainly the nuclear industry but look the point is that putin gave russia something that is really important in this world and we can get back to that because that's the bottom line is we need an anchor in the world we need a resistance to exist to the call of the dominion of the united states i know that you know on talk about politics but this is a very happy type of question you have sighted people. who have done movies cost

chavez putin time this are strongman you know obviously have attraction to strongman do you feel like this is diffused here of politics leaders like that they're very strong uncompromising. very controversial in many ways or should politics be about dialogue and political correctness well it is about the long term and these men all were open to dialogue and you can argue who did who said what to who but the point was that castro tried to negotiate with the united states for a long time and he was rebuffed not only was her buff he was insulted and then they tried to assassinate him many times so you know where what is dialogue dialogue is important and mr chavez certainly had a point of view he was if you remember he shook obama's hand he really has hoping that there was going to be a new approach from the united states didn't happen so it is about dialogue it's about compromise politics and above all if i. give you an overall opinion of mr putin he said he's the ultimate negotiator you wear you out he really believes in

talking out everything there's no there are certain points of interest for every country has its national interests and he constantly harks on this russia has its national interests and he's open to the gut to negotiating anything but those national interests and when you cross the line. he will let you know as you know i pushed him whatever people say i pushed him and certainly i could feel his irritation when i was pushing him hard on the democracy question on this the question of his succession in what's going to happen next year there were times i riled him more than once but i am concerned and the reason i undertook the series was i was very concerned about going back to my relationship to russia what happened to the american russian relationship that had existed in two thousand if you like your film can change american perception on point because it hurts also entirely in us to some degree. more than several million people saw it which is and

this is on a premium cable channel showtime is not on a national channel like in russia so you have a limited prescription audience that it was seen and seen again but it was also shown in europe in a lot of places and we had a very good debate in france was public television channel three in france and. you've heard vedra in the x. foreign minister of mr beattie all defended the movie very well i thought against and several other people against the opposition it was the debate was very french but in other words in europe and germany france these things matter italy very important now whether things change as a result it's hard to tell because the recently as you know the united states congress which stuns me voted almost unanimously for sanctions to be expanded against russia. this happened recently so it seems to be almost

a reaction to trump. as putin says a domestic politics you feel like trump is trying to sort of way emulate leaders like putin behalf he is i'm not sure i can't tell you what is in donald trump's head i don't think anyone can and if they tell you that i don't think he's stupid i think he's a very sharp guy and i'm sure he wrecks respects the. he may misunderstand mr putin too so i don't know but he certainly hasn't lived up to the idea that he gave many people during the campaign that he was against any foreign of the interventions that he thought the united states it squandered its resources its assets in wars abroad so we there was his thinking that it would change but it hasn't changed not because of his willpower it that because he hasn't been able to get anywhere in his administration it behaves been stuck in gridlock from the beginning opposition has been severe also because of russia now because the u.s.

can i ask you really that has been the excuse the has been attacked profoundly for russia there's no evidence as yet and i've seen indicates that russia is in any collusion with mr with donald trump i mean he's not this meant suring candidate and i thought there was a surprisingly stupid story but it got a lot of traction in america which worries me and shows you how frankly stupid the american. voter can be if you believe that i don't believe most of them do but i could i don't know that the polling is off on it it doesn't make sense if you're saying no one that is elected gets to change the system does it even in america what for in america yeah well that's what mr putin says at the end of the interview if you remember he says he's been through four presidents and i asked him what's changed and he said basically nothing. so he's indicating that there's a bureaucracy he called it of your ocracy in america they call it a deep state bureaucracy that has been resistant to change certainly the policies towards russia have for the most part united states been highly negative since one

thousand nine hundred seventy since the revolution when mr wilson president wilson set american troops to siberia to join the british expeditionary force. when the whole make its manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. in the final.
