faith in the traditional party is away from right wing groups. in the whole of europe we do have a trend towards the right we would like to combine forces to make a progressive breakthrough when you look at polling there's always a majority you know better paid better pension and non-confrontational foreign policy regarding russia. the fifteenth here in moscow for me and the whole crew welcome to your stores. un peacekeepers are set to return to the golan heights softer the area was liberated from she harvests however the region is still hotly contested syria and israel have been fighting over it for decades. reports. this city in the golan heights is one of the latest sites where the syrian army has brought terrorist rule to an end.

we were among the first international news crews inside after its liberation just months ago the city of corn a chubby i mean it was still under the control of well with most of the infrastructure gone this is the main focus of the syrian government now. liberated but far from safe we weren't allowed for the inside the city if you hardy's to have made the mining the area a painstaking process for decades the golan heights have been fought over both syria and israel claims the land. as far as the un is concerned it's definitely syrian but that's food to stop the exchange of fire.

when the jihadi advance so un peacekeepers flee into any fourteen they've been the only fools to try and ease tensions considering the volatility of the situation here at the golan heights the u.n. made a big point out of establishing a presence here well speaking about this particular checkpoint they were driven out by terrorists al nusra front and i still are the two main factions that briefly gained foothold here and well this area doesn't need any more hostility there's plenty of it here already after all the front line was just over there with again. holding some territory and it is. doesn't need terrorists on its border and its jet points begin right over those mountains now with police the un patrols can begin

again with the help of some russian back up. and put it together with a un representative we conducted an initial patrol during which we checked with the safety of the roads are still there but i was the main problem is that there are lots of explosives where we've sent all the information we have to the un peacekeeping force for analysis to reconstruct you in checkpoints the russian military police are helping the u.n. mission to inspect the u.n. checkpoint in. the golan heights may still be territorially be in a state of flux but at least the terrorists have finally been repelled and the u.n. peacekeepers can get on with the job and we've done of reporting from the golan heights in syria to r.t. . we asked the un mission to comment on the situation it has confirmed its implementing a gradual return to the golden heights. and a saying that with the region are russia's ambassador to the u.k.

says the west's decision to evacuate members of the controversial white helmets rescue groups in the country raises many questions he was speaking during an interview with r.t. is going underground the white helmet say they save the lives of civilians in the syrian conflict despite numerous accusations of working directly with terror groups . all right the white helmet was on this program told me it is the russian warplanes that are killing civilians to resume says that britain is the second biggest humanitarian aid donor in syria of course some of that money going to the white helmets and of course the way hilma to claim continued russian atrocities throughout this i think this is a very misleading statement first of all it's very interesting that the white helmets are related only in the areas where the territory was held by the in the isis they never ought to read it in the areas where there was the moderate opposition or the government forces of that's where the aid was needed to protect people from those islamist forces will from the north from least from his forces

because you know in the left syria together we did you just wanted to stay no one not to help the. syrian government they say they had a choice because they were afraid of reprisals by the syrian government is not true the the let's see the the. you know who laid down the weapons they are not afraid in the world here on the freight i think this is some kind of a contradiction in this. another social media ban has been imposed latin american news channel has been removed from facebook for the second time this year and the outlet isn't the only one daniel hawkins looks at the recent string of benz. a news outlets activist old radio host banned by a social media platform for violating terms of use some familiar nowadays just there's one scandal over suspending or banning subsides another one brews this time

it's the latin american news channel tell us stood that's been on the receiving end of a facebook blackout and not for the first time back in january this year the news outlet temporarily disappeared from facebook allegedly due to an internal mistake on the platform today though things got more serious your beach tellus are english has been removed for violating our terms of use telesur a say they received no further explanation of why exactly their page was removed they see this incident as no coincidence but rather a pattern of censorship by social media giants now in case you're wondering this isn't a case of deja vu just last week in fact in four was an alternative to the controversial media platform run by alex jones was also banned by you tube our poll and facebook for violating policies and terms of use now what do these have in common and independent platform criticized for spreading all right conspiracy theories and

a left leaning channel publicly funded by venezuela cuba bolivia. and seemingly diametrically opposed views the answer is both a critical of the american establishment war lobby and global regime change both have now faced by enduring the battle against fake news conducted by facebook along with its new partners such as the digital forensic research lab now this is an offshoot of the atlantic council think tank in turn a member of the atlantic treaty organization although formally independent of nato and washington openly sharing both their values and speakers fighting fake news is a noble cause terms of use platforms individua. violet and expect a band increasingly though the question will be asked is it violating social media policies or violating mainstream consensus and prevalent narratives that can really land you in hot water. we asked a facebook to comment on why

a band. and touch on our. english multimedia director says facebook's decision is alarming. but not aware and we didn't get an explanation we got an e-mail yesterday afternoon saying that our page was removed and this e-mail said that we were violating the terms of use but it didn't we don't consider that an explanation since we've doing get got to resign or we would they didn't explain how in what way were we violating supposedly violating the terms of us not a specific content that we posed not a specific article or video nothing was hope it's a mistake we're still hoping for them to apologize for this mistake but if it's not we're going to prepare a response and we do think it's alarming and a bit scary that could be yeah place where.

some voices are not allowed we we're not doing anything different from what we have been doing since the beginning of her english in facebook so we were aware of the terms of use when we started it and we were not motivating this terms and we would like to change the way perspective is the cover as we do for this is not an inch. and it's not just facebook this one a banning spree twit is late as a blocking measure toggles the accounts of libertarian commentator government can is and his organization is a proud boys a proud voice is a group that operates in the u.s. the u.k. kind of and australia out of ties itself as a collective western chauvinists some of its members took part in the notorious old rally in charlottesville in august twenty seventh scene but since then it's trying to distance itself from the old too right. now the proud boys but came ahead of the end of

a story over the shot it's bill o'reilly with twitter saying the organization has violated its policy on violent extremist groups. debated the issue with guests as far as it come in right before the unite the right rally the only thing coincidental with that having to do with anything having to do with the proud boys is the fact that gavin and all the probably sides actually disavowed the unite the right rally just like we did last year i think it might just be coincidental that it was shut down after that unless of course somebody didn't want people to know that there are reasonable people in the new right who are saying we don't want anything to do with that kind of racist nazi dreck which we don't well i feel like the poor hateful boys are they've got their website and they can espouse whatever going to hate speech they want you have not my argument off we don't like the so i just feel that i'm sorry ok. so thousands of problems or there is nothing for you to offer to the american public you're a you're

a very fringe extreme fringe group that espouses hate and you can do whatever you want to twitter as far as i'm concerned i don't i don't follow you i don't want to be by you twist this decision somewhat surprising given that it cools a violent extremist grant that they themselves have denied for years connections to white groups so any extremist movement saying is activism now considered extremism is this that she went to beijing hanau we would like to have no hate speech no racism no divisions in our country and they the divisions in our country and the racism do not come from twitter they do not come from facebook they do not come from our email and such and i believe that the poor racist boys should have their website i mean i believe that there should be on twitter i

believe they should have facebook's who gets to pick out who gets to pick out what hate speech is who gets to pick out what racism is how come one thing is racist for one people but it's not racist for another people how come one thing could be hate speech here but it's not hate speech over here it does your privilege and then we thing to add to fight hate speech evolution right right i got it i'm privileged and i can't fight racism yeah the only way and what are you ok only fit to fit your the most privileged person in this conversation right now i guarantee it the only thing to fiery hate speech is more speech and better speech. so he has slapped tariff hikes on so american products including cars and alcohol it took us five president called a response to a us attack song to accuse economy. under the principle of reciprocity the tax rates for imports of certain products have been increased to counter the u.s. administration's conscious attacks on our economy this comes just days after washington imposed additional tariffs on turkish aluminum and steel alimony and

duties have been raised to twenty percent while turkish steel is now subject to a fifty per cent increase tariff and that sent the turkish lira plummeting in value hitting a record low against the u.s. dollar and turkish stocks tumbled as well the state department spokesperson was pressed by journalists on the consequences of the tariffs for the rest of the world . and financial issues that mean the united states and turkey has now ruled emerging markets we've had everything from mix because to india currencies more of the developing world seen affected by this and what stage does one stop this and say that you know the the rest of the world doesn't sink to the bottom of the economic part well i think what we're seeing overall and i'm not a an economist of course but economists would certainly tell you that what is happening in turkey goes far beyond the united states and united states recent

policies and. a car crash outside london's parliament is now being investigated as a terror attack and the driver was detained after he rammed into pedestrians and cyclists early on tuesday morning a warning you may find the following images disturbing and your video has emerged online it's pretty tough to see but you can more or less i walk out the car crashing into security barriers and injuring people and people say the police are saying excuse me the driver was alone and they found no weapons inside the car i was. the suspect has been identified as a twenty nine year old british citizen is not believed to have been previously known to perdition teligent police are now searching three addresses in the u.k. in relation to this incident. but the german left party leader is launching

a new movement to protect the rights of those who feel that the government is neglecting them that story and much more just. seemed wrong why don't we all just don't all. get to say proud disdain become educated and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. what politicians do. they put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected.

so when you want to be president or injury. or somehow want to be rich. to do like to be for us as a white woman for three of them or can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters in our. case. it is good to have you with us today the leader of germany's it left party is launching a new political movement cold stand up one of the new groups self-proclaimed goals is to defend the interests of those who feel ignored by the current government. yeah let's just call and phenomena. because.

if you decide ya them good. in their moves all comes over from suits and that's all to me in. the group will be looking to rally left wing voters under pressure german politicians to create a left wing government stand up is also looking to win over so-called protest voters those who strongly oppose the way germany is heading today its leader. is against the current administration's open borders policy and says that migrants unlimited access to germany's labor market must come to an end there have to be open borders for the persecuted but we certainly can say that anyone who wants to you may come to germany claim social benefits and look who work is detached from reality according to

a new poll as many as thirty four percent of german voters could have voted for the new movement if elections were to take place and we heard from one german m.p. who has pledged support for the new movement. yeah that will happen we have a cause exchanging operation especially with bernie sanders people in the united states who are against hillary clinton they missed out on getting the democratic nomination because of clinton intrigues we are also in close contact with the supporters of jeremy corbyn the moment to movement in the united kingdom clean and also with the complain of france which on the who got almost twenty percent in the last financial action. the left are split and weak not just in germany and the whole of europe but we do have a trend towards the right we would like to combine forces to make a progressive breakthrough when you look at polling there's always a majority that want better paid better pension and non-confrontational foreign

policy regarding russia and are also against nato expansion through on top of them a political direction and policy of. we have to present something different from the alternative or germany probably in the last two or three years s.p.d. the greens or done didn't show a successful strategy for doing that and competent rather the opposite a.b. is getting stronger and there is a chance for them becoming the people's party which is absurd the left should return to its core ideals and goals social questions should be the keystone us i applaud. also shot at by fluting integration policy has pretty much friended the minimum wage defunct what was once a one euro job no only brings eighty cents is that obviously if you take people in you need to ask them somewhere that there are a lot of people under the stress created by the social situation those people need

to be able to earn a wage that lets them live in dignity if this is not happening it's understandable that people become angry and lean towards writing the party it is those. people that we will be reaching out to for the sake of our democracy. democrats seem to be falling out of love with capitalism with recent polls showing they're now more positive about socialism and with some saying the party is out of touch with its traditional base. went to see what's driving the new trend. polls show that among democratic voters socialism is becoming more popular than capitalism according to the latest poll less than half of democrats have a favorable view of the economic system long considered to be the american way meanwhile fifty seven percent of democrats have a positive view of socialism which until recently was a forbidden word in american discourse this is what the leftist intellectual slob

voice is easy access is about the trend not only so go to the king listing. today but the system because only so many meters do this they need to look to us and still want to kill one each i know but. why do they just put it a war mish dead american sheet that doesn't function the way you expected to find now this shift in views is manifesting itself with the rise in popularity of figures like veteran senator bernie sanders and progressive candidate for congress alexandria a kazuo cortez now many voices are speaking up and saying that the new trend could be disastrous for the democratic party but the shift among the liberal rank and file continues no k.k.k. .

happy. to do you know how to dance so why are democrats losing faith in capitalism we decided to talk to people here on the streets of new york and find out now a new poll came out that showed that only forty seven percent of democrat. that's favor capitalism what's driving this shift in public opinion. drop i think a lot of it has to do or trump because of his policies so i think we're going further to the left than we should be going because of his policies i see him as being overly wealthy overly influential and kind of not allowing the little guy to succeed which i see capitalism as being the way that they're portraying capitalism

in the media now is sort of standing up shining a bad light on it if you like trump is causing this rise in socialist sentiments among democrats. i wouldn't say so i think he he's not really influencing it that much i feel like you know the health care system especially the driving costs and even if the affordable care act's this is not working out well. now among those who favor socialism the top priority concerns seem to be affordable health care and education however trump's embrace of all things capitalist seems to have an influence on those who are now changing their understanding of the word socialism today seems to embody sets of programs by which the government helps regulate and in some instances run and pay for social programs focused on basic population needs in health education housing and employment then you can do this thing you know

speak out the american day. but i don't know if you know even more of the democratic establishment than i feel awful about the border than they've gotten better maybe yes they should look in the dead of own don't look at the bottom of it don't tell us how they don't ignore the theatre more live the m d god because he's seeking out pro but he saved us and he's moving until one of them still won't and so now they are the bane prize so whether it's trump just or. overall dissatisfaction resentment against what has long been considered to be core american values is growing up and artsy new york. and as this news just in here at r.t. international rionda stand at least a forty five security personnel have been killed in afghanistan of the taliban militants attacked a military camp north of kabul this attack comes amid heavy clashes between the taliban and the country's security forces in the city of god's name where the
