american election is child's play perhaps it's time the guys in charge did their homework on where the real threats are. next new revelations have emerged on cia director gina has passed involvement in the torture of terrorist suspects the files were released by the national security archive and they date back to two thousand and two when the hospital run a secret cia detention center in thailand they describe torture sessions run by psychologists working as contractors' for the cia techniques range from physical and psychological harassment 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 in panel interrogators covered the subjects head with the hoods and left him on the water moaning shaking and asking god to help him repeatedly. interrogators were going to
10:33 am
get the truth out of the subject eventually. one of the 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 and the gina house bills watch where he was subsequently transferred to guantanamo bay where he is to this day his case was highlighted back in twenty fourteen by the senate intelligence committee the committee released a report saying interrogations had attained no useful information from him on the shiri however when questioned by the senate before taking office house bill insisted that intelligence gained from al qaeda suspects had proved fight all the president has asserted that torture works do you agree with that statement. senator i am 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
10:34 am
qaeda operatives that allowed us to defend this country and prevent another attack former cia officer a mcgovern says war crimes were perpetrated at that black site that passable ron gina has was not was playing fast and loose with the truth at her hearing and she was allowed to do that she was allowed to classify the gerakan tory information on herself before the hearing she supervised the torture to see the graphic and detailed iranian terror walling does nothing short of banging someone's head into a wall in the water treatment as waterboarding condemned by all manner of nations because it was practiced by the japanese during war two 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. germany slammed president trump's new trade tariffs on the e.u. saying that damaging the economy the u.s. has already increased rate some steel on a million for europe and its key nato ally turkey we won't let washington dictate to us with whom we can do business. this trade war is slowing down and destroying economic growth and creates a new one so since who's. among the pages isn't it let's go live to our europe correspondent in the heart of europe peter all of a lot of anger towards trouble right now from all quarters and you know well that's right the statement from the economy minister can pretty much be taken as a statement directly from the chancellor angela merkel mrs merkel always want to never give anything away until she has to peter out my as one of her most trusted cabinet members so what he says can pretty much be taken as the word of berlin
10:36 am
berlin of course is usually in lock step almost all the way with brussels and this could be taken as the the line that the european union is taking that they're not happy about these tariffs that have been put in place but the e.u. so far hasn't been is hardly hit as turkey has by the tariffs that have been put in place there over the weekend where we had missed out my speaking to the german newspapers president ed the one in turkey was addressing crowds saying that if the u.s. continued with their economic policies then perhaps and crew would have to look elsewhere for allies and friends couldn't do you know. we will respond to the one declaring war tree to the whole world my new markets finding new corporations and allies. well the main book between uncreate and washington lies with the jailed pastor andrew bronson he's been in the cell for two years or
10:37 am
he's been in the house arrest sorry for two currently he's been in custody for two years in turkey. in washington they say that the charges against him a bogus however in ankara they accuse him of having ties to the banned kurdistan workers party and also having ties to those who try to organize a coup to overthrow president back in twenty sixteen now the tariffs of twenty percent on exports of alimony and fifty percent of exports on turkish steel to the united states have hit the turkish economy hard on monday we've seen the turkish lira crash to a record low against the u.s. dollar and while we heard the president talking tough there he's also been telling people to drop the dollar and that's been picked up by people across to some of done that with some well quite colorful aplomb.
10:38 am
but the reason we're seeing this type of reaction both from germany what we just saw from. trumps trade war because this type of trade war creates uncertainty and uncertainty is the kryptonite for businesses and ultimately in a trade war every a cold i mean loses out and that's why we're seeing this type of reaction from across the atlantic yes the big worry is now all right pay place that from berlin so it's international coming up apartheid or the defense of a nation the new law that israel has increased fears of inequality in the
10:39 am
predominantly jewish state will tell you about that and the rest of this monday's headlines after the break. what politicians do you should. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. some want to be. actually going to be this is what the korean people are. interested always in the wrong. direction. here now this new attempt at a global unit of the counter global currency big oil that will be controlled
10:40 am
by any government has the chance to do what's called fail to do to escape the tricks of the central bankers and they will the economist. again the israeli prime minister is digging in over another large scale protest in tel aviv against the recently passed nation state law which arab israelis claim makes known jews second class citizens anyone that says the rallies underlined the need for such a law the. emma should keep bugging you. we received clear testimony of the urgency of the nation state law we saw palestinian flags in the
10:41 am
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 so today's protest was the second in as many weeks and saw tens of thousands of arabs and jews turnout in tel aviv they carried banners in both hebrew and arabic appealing for democracy equality and for the law to be abolished some signs said resist apartheid while 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 as well critics say the more not only undermines fragile guarantees of equality in israel but it opens the door for open discrimination against jews. this law is trying to incite in the state
10:42 am
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 because i'm not asking for a right i deserve to have these this is what i deserve a someone who lives in his country i'm not scared of anything but i fear that this law being a basic law will drag other laws from which we will suffer this is the law is again to. be on a language. against priests against our future in this land we are very obvious and we can't agree for this law well here's how our guest view the controversial legislation proposed. this law actually doesn't change anything for the citizens of israel he does not discriminate or take any rights through and the law simply says that israel is the nation state of the jewish people it which has been long overdue this law is
10:43 am
a basic law and that means it's constitutional which means. apartheid 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 bash my country in israel all citizens are equal under the law the third biggest party in the parliament is their party what i find shocking is that people who condemn the bare existence of the state of israel in any border are saying that we are and which i think is just appalled this law says that this land is only for half of the population and the other half would be discriminated against it does not identify the borders of israel which means that the system of discrimination includes not only palestinians inside but also by the students in the west bank and those are sort of the. injured in 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 it in some area
10:44 am
unfortunately. it is really logged in some area 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 come along using it that you want another said 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 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. video of a police officer in the u.s. state of connecticut go viral the footage shows him apparently threatening to shoot trespassers. anybody wants to run trigger happy go lucky or you know i could be that kind of money in order to shoot somebody was going to do. now police say they're examining the nature of sergeant steven brown's interaction an internal investigation they say has been opened regardless of the context or the
10:45 am
intent those statements are entirely unacceptable and represent a fundamental disregard for the conduct we expect and the standards we hold ourselves to will 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 he's been a police officer for ten years this is not his first suspension from judy either apparently two years ago he was present when a handcuffed suspect was kicked despite that he was later promoted to the position of sergeant former police officer dominic is a believe the police are being put in a really tough situation these days though. the problem is is that simply you get now we have this war on cops between the pilot police and the public and capture people filled with emotions and you're going to watch your you tube going to watch or you're our team you're going to watch or your you any new news outlet out there and as a police officer who's a person you're going to be a mostly triggered by what you see you know what is right you know what is wrong these men and women are taking this on the street and they're becoming highly
10:46 am
emotional and they're sick of not 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 and 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 you can come to know low stories on our website just go to the comments section let us know what you think but you'll find all that familiar mosco at midday twenty six it's kevin though in saying thanks a lot seeing this live update. i. to gain this national camera. roughly once they showed some ugly for them.
10:47 am
to joan cool videos this along with the broken string abs. going down more on string i don't rightly don't t.v. . shows seem wrong but all roles just don't all. get to shape out just a few cuts to education and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. i've been saying the numbers mean something they said matter the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you longs to be all for rich eight point
10:48 am
six percent market saw a thirty percent just last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per circuit first elected and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one one does not show you can afford to miss the one and only boom but. at least the way to the united states is dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. crossing their fingers just as the word of sympathy i want to be gotten lost and i won the last post on this about what if 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 best person as bank of mom. policy to point
10:49 am
out i am at best i'm not getting a lot less and that more that. they have to watch as they all choose to stay in the country with donald trump in the white house all over for the couples because both of you what if they have to be about the the old sets it struggles of many couples won't. kill what chance the push to put impulse response both from both of all of you up of up to the fault of the. welcome to. shevardnadze he won oscars called in globe space films are cult classics part of american consciousness now all over stone's latest project was to film an extensive series of interviews with russia's ludmer putin. i caught up with
10:50 am
the director himself to talk about the experience i. have you with us today hope you're having a great trip in moscow has just got here so your book compared to your extensive interviews with. published you called the putin interview for a day has climaxed my strange life as an american filmmaker climax your career was 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 tumeric and western europe you know i
10:51 am
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
10:52 am
a by one i met mr putin which is in the back room of a theater in the 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 it was simply you know take it as it comes like you're doing and play it by ear it was spontaneous i gave melissa
10:53 am
quick questions i was areas that i was going to cover but it wasn't limited he didn't say it was totally spontaneous i didn't have any limitation on the way to us and as you can see by every day i look different he was always the same he looked very together i was sometimes. but here was blowin in the wind. i guess i changed appearances several times but. in other words i'm the opposite of an american actor 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 access but. that's not easy i mean a lot of russian journalists 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 lash out are you saying yourself flattering to certain that you're about entry or just want to do you care it is
10:54 am
again it under your skin because that's a lot of work you do it 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 all well the opinions of james 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 buy it 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
10:55 am
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 turned 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
10:56 am
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 putting them this are strongman you know obviously have attraction to strongman do you feel like this is the future of politics leaders like that are 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 your 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
10:57 am
a point of view he was if you remember he shook obama's head and 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 hearts on this russia has its national interests and he's open to the go 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
10:58 am
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 it has 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 is 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
10:59 am
important now whether things change as a result it's hard to tell because the recent leaders 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 doesn't 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 had 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
11:00 am
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. he's been attacked profoundly for russia there's no evidence as yet and i've seen that 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 the 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 you know what for in america yeah well that's what mr.
