8:34 pm
threatened iran with. death and destruction and a few days later he speaks about unconditional talks his state says one thing he says something else so he's reliable he's untrustworthy he's an erratic and he's not someone that the iranians can deal with. donald trump has turned on a former aide on twitter after she revealed the tape which she claims is a recording of her being sacked the mag go newman also accuse the president of having no clue about what was going on in the white house trump though says she was just a bad employee she begs me for a job tears in your eyes i said ok people in the white house hated her she was vicious but not smart i would really see or but heard really bad things nasty to people and would constantly miss meetings and work when gen kelley came on board he told me she was a loser nothing but problems i told him to try working it out of possible because

8:36 pm
your own back because otherwise you'll look back and you'll see seventy knives in your bag cording to trump however she begged him for the job but newman is telling quite a different story as she does the rounds on mainstream media sharing private white house recordings with the entire country in one of them trump a surprise that she's been fired but she claims he's not the one pulling the strings the second audiotape is a recording of her getting fired in the situation room let's take a quick look but as you could push this the president is with nowhere to go it's not the down the road this isn't going to go she will discussion but many are now trying to figure out how she recorded her firing in what's supposed to be the most secure room and all of the white house.
8:37 pm
and this believe it or not even has a former staffer scratching their heads i've never heard of a more serious breach of protocol not only is it not typical something like this is unprecedented no proper employee of the white house brings funds into to seach ration room it's totally pretty but it is someone who spent a fair amount of time in the situation room i can't even begin to wrap my head
8:38 pm
around how insane this is if carried for example the cell phone into the situation room the not only did she record conversations that but so potentially has any country or criminal organization thought. it's no wonder the media always cites leaks and anonymous sources at least now we can check off one. a suicide bomber has detonated explosives at the office of the electoral commission in the afghan capital people have gathered there to protest the disqualification of multiple candidates running in parliamentary elections local journalists reports from kabul some of the supporters of those candidates who are disqualified from to run for the parliamentarian elections they were they were gathering in a nearby the independent election commission headquarters a suicide bomber according to police tried to approach the gathering but detonated his explosive ahead of approaching the gathering and they killed himself and one
8:39 pm
other from from this civilians who were nearby also killed two others wounded but this you know the. against the r.u.c. or elect independent electoral commission all the presidential palace actually has been taking place since a week almost yesterday we had another protest and a gathering that some m.p.'s who are accused of land grabbing and. having a responsible man protested. the same way and they were accusing the government of. the process and they were angry and actually this process has been continuing today we have another one in a different place so we are expecting that it will it will actually take. take place more of these kind of events because it's the first african election history
8:40 pm
. meanwhile the city of gaffney which is about one hundred fifty kilometers southwest of the capital is facing some of the fiercest clashes between taliban and afghan forces official reports say hundreds have been killed on both sides. again has more details on the newest taliban threat facing the afghan government minister of interior. confirmed the death of seventy security forces in battlefield two with the taliban in gaza that has been taking place since four days but also i have. heard from some local sources in gaza need that the taliban actually or now withdrawing from those locations that have been committing. attacks against. various government is solutions since for days the situation is
8:41 pm
actually really harsh and the hospital is full of dead bodies and wounded and i have seen fresh footage from gaza. that is telling lots of stories inside the city people are really scared the highways have been blocked since for days that communication has been down and people cannot communicate with their relatives or we even cannot talk to the more our local officials or residents in gaza need it has been a very harsh time for gaza near has been like a waltz to city but the government is now saying that they are trying to expel the taliban and they are trying to secure the city but we will see what will happen next. recent studies say that taliban forces control or influence in more than forty percent of afghan territory middle east expert risk says america's campaign there has not only failed but is actually boosted extremism cold war of terror
8:42 pm
which was launched off to the september eleventh attacks as this war has turned out to be an auto failure. was in a stronger position than it was ever since it was ousted from power but i think the u.s. can do anything if it continues with its own focus just on military attacks you know militarily speaking it hasn't succeeded so i don't think there is much that the u.s. can do in that regard that i think it's proof that the u.s. has been pursuing the wrong strategy in depicting terrorism on the contrary i think that there was involvement up until now the focus on military force in the region has the growth of terrorism and sort of leading to the curtailment all to the curbing of terrorism i think that is clear from what we see enough out of. the hacking contest in the us has revealed once and for all that it doesn't take
8:43 pm
a top notch russian computer expert to get into america's election infrastructure it turns out and the eleven year old can do it in the open and go has the details learn more about the twenty hacking contest and that's what the link says they need yes it's from a real website and the contests are real too it's for kids and it's not being held in russia what this is america anyway meet the winner eleven year old audrey i mean . to me we can cause me our own name it reminds me to make a living we won the election it just took her ten minutes to hack a replica of an election office website in one of the battleground states. these are members of congress they work hard to approve budget grants to sort out election cyber security the one for twenty seeing was three hundred eighty million bucks these are child hackers i mean contestants they tap their keyboards to prove
8:44 pm
that within minutes america's election systems are a piece of garbage thirty five out of the thirty nine youngsters taking part this year were able to do just that so how come there haven't been any warnings for a grown up specialists well actually there have always been the milling machine is you know it's you know eighteen different states and it's extremely easy to get advantage of this time it's mostly it's a let me show you how quick it is that a little under two minutes. you don't need any totals to do that. and now i have. full advantage it looks like you don't have to turn pro to be a meddling master and outsmart security efforts worth hundreds of millions of dollars don't bother guessing hole be the ones to take advantage come november
8:45 pm
we've already been told many times there's no doubt russian hackers ahead of the mint and they know i was arrogant and security of. the russians are targeting members of congress the us midterm elections are just around the corner and russia's attack continues 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 extremist 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
8:46 pm
8:47 pm
show seemed wrong why don't we all just don't call. me. yet to shape out these days that's ahead and in the game because the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. the way to the united states is dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. because you have got an artist that's not the word of sympathy i want to take on most of enter and i've learned that lesson just about what many of them look for refuge in the so-called sentry sites the group used to share information about undocumented migrants with federal authorities how to best person asked the man. i
8:48 pm
was you know no i've ended up my son i get i'm in a lot of class and i want that. they had water they all choose to stay in the country with donald trump in the one town for political rivals. both of you what if the if you beat up to the government though i said sits down with a many couples won't. kill with triplets concluded both and spawn both both of both of you up with a few of the hope of the. earth who was never great experiment on the race in a murder. nothing changed so we said in. response to these situations that we're dealing with. people just sad every day for years to stab people kill each other blood for killing children. how many
8:49 pm
still is just no way that people are going to just sit back and allow children to be shot down law enforcement. this country doesn't work for us it doesn't function for us. this is can't be happening in america we call from the streets we've got to deal with why this is the reason i have to ride like this is the reason. hello and welcome to cross up where all things are considered i'm funeral of well all across the western world the so-called melting pot is melting down immigration legal and illegal is probably the most contentious and divisive issue energizing
8:50 pm
voters in italy for example the right and left have united on the issue in germany the government may collapse and trump has made this his signature cause can the status quo be sustained. cross talking immigration i'm joined by my guest john laughlin in paris he's a historian and specialist in international affairs we have roland benedict or he is the co-director of the center for advanced studies of your ex research and in her god that we have niemeyer he is a german journalist and author all right gentlemen cross talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciated and i think go to john first and paris and i just kind of kicked this whole discussion off by an observation i've had over the last few weeks and months particularly with the events going on in the united states it appears that virtue signaling his replaced
8:51 pm
policy and debate because all we're supposed to do is to think emotionally about this and not use our heads and i think this is what the establishment media and establishment parties want us to think that way to address this issue and if we stop birches signaling maybe we could come up with some solutions your thoughts john. well there's a lot of propaganda involved isn't there i mean we've just seen in the events on the mexican border these very propaganda. pictures of children a supposedly being separated from their parents i'm sure your viewers will remember the picture of the poor little kurdish boy on a turkish beach the dead body of a little boy he was a victim of the migration crisis and the broadcast of his photo was used to elicit sympathy for the plight of migrants and it worked very well but when boy of the same age was killed in a terrorist attack in barcelona the policy was not to show his dead body out of
8:52 pm
respect for him and for his family so we can see that these images are being used to drive a political agenda and that is the problem the problem is that this immigration is being driven by a political agenda it is being driven by a political agenda of european states who are demographically weak the demographic pyramid is inverted there are more old people the young people and for many years and decades now economists and policymakers have decided that in order to rectify this demographic problem in europe we need immigration we need to bring in people from outside in order to pay our pensions and that is the immigration issue. and as long as that ideology remains in place as long as the ideology is believed by these people as it is most notably in germany then i'm afraid the problem will continue ok roland you know thing is that this this is approach with open borders but if you believe that there are open borders then there are no borders to defend i think
8:53 pm
that's the paradox of what's happening in the western world you want to have open borders let people come in but then you can't defend your border when it's necessary go ahead roland. well look. look there is no starts seeing like a political entity or a community without borders never in history and unique borders wide because you have to define delimits not related to the few laws and that is what the lefties hulu trying to put school you're going to must says what their system series says so borders as some seem good they're not something better when we had the in europe. city kids. very strongly left their story into it political correctness really believed in politics on new phoenician of identity and for example descending group and ended the excelled of the european
8:54 pm
consortium on political research areas and in brussels would say today is that we need to define our identity as europeans much more no european way right and in a less exaggerated cosmopolitan way because we can't live without borders because if you have no borders you have no rule of law and order finish and you know where you lost the valley and we're not ok let me go to you i mean ok we have a lot of consensus here the media is for open borders the political classes for open borders but you know what the voters aren't for open borders and we're seeing it in election after election i mean isn't it time that democracy be recognized again in the european union i mean we have the austrians we have the italians we have also a new car i could use term fifth column in germany right now that it's waking up to what voters want to and they're running on these issues go ahead ralph. yes of
8:55 pm
course it is true that bordeaux mirth i must say of leftists and i am calling us out of after it's at stake because it has a lot worked out in front of a lot. behind those people who already live in our country and we did not take care of them refugees have nothing to do with the fact or do actions them up good enough anymore due to privatization of the pension scheme or that of age of sama good enough or that the rent is too high for apartments those are not huge but it came up with people are realizing that every left behind and they said hang on a minute. as well so this is but a leftist made a key mistake in recent years and especially given two thousand and fifteen happened mrs merkel once and called it a decision said be a shock to us you're going to manage it down and people said why don't we manage with ourselves first of course there's
8:56 pm
a right wing nationalistic. parties are coming up because they take voter sentiment serious. to do that and especially to. have failed completely and that they stood amount of border like. there were no borders and no states which is of course not true there are states and beneath states of course and obviously i'm lucky that no one wants to live and i know you must think does this also go bring stone to america government because she lost control yeah the journey you know the the interesting thing is that with these waves of migrants or asylum seekers who are never term you want because it seems to me most of them vast majority of for economic immigrants here but you know they don't really come in on the layer jets do they to germany they don't you know they don't fly into airports they kind of walk through the continent you know that's what makes me feel really bad for the greeks in the italians ok i mean if germany wants those people fine but
8:57 pm
it's not being done the right way even according to e.u. law it's ok so i mean the germany cannot be that the decision maker of immigration in europe that is. intensely and i democratic and against the rules of the european union go ahead john you know there's no doubt that the rules are being broken because indeed germany by saying that a million refugees are welcome and then by trying to offload them onto other members of the european union worlds indeed breaking refugee law and breaking the european union's own rules that's for sure i'm in strong agreement with what roland said about borders and the need to protect them but i have a different conclusion i disagree that this is a european problem and indeed i think that the or that this can be solved with european measures and i think that the the reflex position of european leaders which is to say that we need a european solution to this problem is precisely wrong it is precisely the fact
8:58 pm
that we have a european union with a borderless internal space the showing an area which has caused the migration problem in the first place i first visited the song at camp near cali in the late one nine hundred ninety s. the migration crisis that we're talking about now didn't start in two thousand and fifteen it started in the one nine hundred ninety s. when italy joined the schengen zone and from that moment onwards the borders of the mediterranean were on the english channel yeah and it's there is a direct relation of cause and effect and what we saw in two thousand and sixteen after hungary and creation and the other countries built fences to close off the balkan route is that national solutions are the ones that solve this problem not european ones and we are now i hope seeing the same result with the italians who
8:59 pm
are taking matters into their own hands nationally defending their national territory and it's only by doing that with because they have that the navy they have the ability to do it that this solution will end prior to the imposition of national so. lucian's the habit was and it's a very bad structural problem in the e.u. it was that countries would simply let the migrants in like greece and italy and then send them north to germany in other words they were there were bigger the neighbor policies which is a structural problem in the view so i think we need to finish with this idea that the solution is european the problem is european role in the the arguments that the left in the media have made is that it has already been mentioned this program think it was you demographics the need the need for workers new workers but i mean it looking at the evidence i don't see a lot of these migrants particularly since two thousand and fifteen are employed across the european union they do take state benefits and in most of the country the european union have austerity so you have very large youth unemployment so why
9:00 pm
the same poles to keep bringing in more people and less it just cheap labor go ahead roland. you know indeed this is a new especially if we can go count the current trend to work out some of the station. large parts of the traditional labor force especially blue collar workers will be dismissed over the coming years and unfortunately most of those who cross. to europe do not have an indication do not have any chance of qualification and a recent study of do you be in ministry of labor. it was very difficult to qualify more than twenty to twenty five percent of all combing over the coming years to get a job and you tracked the job acceptance rate employment rate of migrants and refugees is very low so this is indeed.
