lists those who are bad enough on paper on computer they're really mischievous another proposal he has been reported here is the first time this would be able to be done at airports in britain and all ports people who from the security services immigration offices would be able to question people who have arrived who they suspect osp eyes not for being terrorists but for being spies would you make of that initiative well this is part and parcel of this trick pony and overreaction to . two terrorist events now what you're going to do is just harass the general public to the point where actual sensible regulations are completely discredited and disregarded it's quite amazing how people have lost all sense of proportion because of nine eleven because of seven seven because of terrorists acts and no one asked why is it always that that they do these things or do they come out of the

womb shouting i hate great britain i hate america no it's not that at all look to the causes of the terrorism that's a much cheaper way to stop it and just finally pictures were beamed around the world of you being injured that you know as pows hearing she says she won't torture people as boss of the cia what sort of would you say would be a chill the chill sent through nato counterparts of secret agencies here in europe now that she's in langley she was nominated by the president united states donald trump who says torture is wonderful torture works i'm going to do waterboarding and worse now. would trump have picked a person who would say oh no our number do that anymore i did that and didn't work when i got there give me a break as for me you know there comes a time we have to take a stand ok if you can stick can't take a stand against. what you're what can you take a stand that gets i follow

website but we can't talk to him about an ongoing court case the former united nations under-secretary general however can talk about his new book why i am a hindu and he joins me now especially thanks for coming back on the great american american right it will be del said the whole decline of the west can be attributed to the failure of pantheism or the loss of pantheism but you say in the new book that in two ism can mean no gold after all so what is interesting hindus it was we really of approaching our understanding of the calls malls which doesn't actually require us to. believe in god in the personalized anthropomorphic sense in fact for a thousand years the hindu idea of god was rather like the muslim idea that is that god cannot be given a shame of former gender shape a bigger pardon cannot be touched see noon imagine could be an idea could be a spark could be a puff of air we don't know what god is right so

a god without qualities is what the hindus worshiped but they realized that in fact ordinary people needed more than that they needed something they could look to a they needed for example in the basic year a lot of nature worship happened people worship trees and rivers and fire for example so they said no we better have an idea of god that actually do they err by the way the big sages the rashid's the the thinkers and writers i mean you're talking about a religion. about a thousand years into it's existence of four thousand years so that's what i'm talking about and then came up with the idea of god in a more familiar sense issue or a book one but they said since no one really knows what god looks like let's allow people to imagine god as they want and so there are three hundred thirty three million names of god with lots of forms you want to imagine god as a potbellied gentleman was an elephant's head going to show you men that's the image behind us we started the show you want to imagine god as an eight armed woman

writing a tiger you may do so as well but they're not all they're all merely different manifestations because the human imagination is soon limited so we need to think of a god that we can worship strictly speaking god in hindu ism is brahman is this a spirit that suffuses the cosmos there is everywhere and every one of us is united by the same soul the up woman which is in you which is in me which is in your pet dog which is which is in every living creature and each of each of us. finds are seven a position where in western religions for example or the abrahamic feeds the body has a soul in hinduism the soul has a body the soul exists it adopts your body your mind for a finite period of time then it discards our bodies and moves on the ultimate goal of the soul is to be able to move into god into brahman and that his is is

what we consider salvation in the philosophy of course war most critics and people who praise the book have been talking about and that is. the tolerant version of india is a given it verse is obviously what has been seen as intolerance associated with the current indian government. you you say that hindu ism clearly accepts the possibility the abrahamic religions ups are all fine judaism christianity and islam so weak on the perhaps the greatest modern hindu preacher who in the late one nine hundred centuries made a very famous speech in chicago to the world parliament of religions said the just as all sorts of rivers flow in different parts crooked and straight into the same sea so also always of worship lead to the same god he said that i'm proud to speak of a feat that has taught the world not just tolerance but acceptance and so profoundly

important idea because tolerance we are taught is a virtue but it's ultimately rather patronizing it says tolerance says i have the truth you are in error but i will make none i'm mostly indulge you in your right to be wrong very different except where is except in says much or it says actually i believe i have the truth you believe you have the truth i will respect your truth please respect my truth and by that logic hindu ism is willing to see the merit in every way of worship what it doesn't accept as the clip of any other faith to be exclusively right and it doesn't make any such claim itself hinduism has no equivalent of saying there's only one way of reaching god or salvation it says always are equally valid ok what about what about this criticism of hindu ism that it it is based around the cost class system and oh you tackle the subject in here the very idea of progress is there is hurt somehow by this version of universal

acceptance well the thing is as far as the caste system is concerned many good hindus like myself i'd like to think devout in the us can find plenty of justification for. rejecting caste altogether for saying that this is not it's maybe part of a social construct of the way it has evolved in society as practiced in india but it's not intrinsic to the faith and i can assure you as i've done in the book scriptural examples anecdotes from history parables from our our great old epics and other poor honor's which see that you should not pay attention to superficial external distinctions such as caste hierarchy but it's true that many hindus still practice it and particularly when it comes to discrimination against people because of their belonging to supposedly lower caste that is actually illegal in india it's against the constitution where we have an affirmative action program for the so-called costs and tribes from the lowest street of society the most the most

unfortunate members of our society but discrimination prohibiting people entry into temples for example on the grounds of their cost that's illegal an action can be taken against you if you practice caste and that's what some would argue it is of a scale of say racism in the united states is the only difference is where is reese is visible castors not you can look at somebody and say that i was new yorkers to look at somebody else and say he's up on the fact is that that's why cost is eroding with urbanization you have no idea of the cost your of the person you're rubbing shoulders with on the bus and with affirmative action that's come a democracy you may be an upper caste person go to an office and take orders from a lower caste woman that's life going too far to say and i know you touch upon this in the book and your previous book that the british entrenched the existing india car system was a way of organizing in people in the colonialism well look the question of

organizing the indian people who are going to do this i think it's them desire to be good i'm able to do but you're right categorise control classify this was important to the. brits and the the map the census the museum were all instruments of colonial domination and showed it and they love him to his and we will get to use this really can use exactly so they actually did take we had castle we didn't have a car system in the rigid hierarchical ossified sense that it became under colonialism so are you against party politicization of religion generally whether it be political islam or political interest that's what i'm against identity politics generally whether you want to keep up political fervor and mobilize voters on the basis of cost of creed of religion i think identity is the least interesting way to organize political contention we should have it's very powerful about ideas we should have arguments about ideology we should be have arguments about economics

who's going to do most to give us a better life who's going to improve the education system who's going to defend our borders better those are legitimate grounds for argument but to say vote for me because i'm hindu or for me because we have the same caste i know it happens but doesn't mean i need to like it i don't and so basically the way the entire hindu religion is organized could be under any political system whether it be capitalism feudalism or communism it doesn't matter it or any of it it shouldn't matter in fact the point is precisely that's true of any society on earth that the wind which you organize yourself should be distinct from hindu ism in any case fascist it could exist under fascism yeah but hinduism you see actually seized religion as an intensely personal matter my father would pray every morning very development never obliged me once to join him the idea is that it's everything about religion is between you and your maker or whatever image of form of your me could you wish to worship or not that amount of choice is intrinsic to hindus so that kind of hammer

all of that in into some sort of narrow street jacket of uniformity that's not something that's truly hindu or tall and that's where the political movement called hindutva which is. the ideology of the of the ruling party today and those forces supporting it that dismays me a great deal because in fact you can take such a vast completions accepting diverse all encompassing religion and reduce it to the team identity of the british football hooligan which is what frankly some of the goons who are the fellow travellers of the hundreds of movement today are doing some studies say that comment on violence is up thirty percent under and or modi do you see any signs of optimism in recent months lessening of this identification of hindu ism. and the hindutva movement central tenets with the ruling of india political the problem unfortunately is that communal and identity politics

seems to get turned on and off when it suits those in power when the economics is doing well they'll talk about that when the government's doing badly they'll turn up the volume as it were of the common allowed speak up in order to polarize voters on the grounds of religion so i can't be complacent or even optimistic that that'll stop happening those who are in power today started off very much on the hindutva bandwagon mr modi won the last election with a significant upper layer as it were of economics of saying i will permit well and was voted or absolutely but but but it's also true that the economics has not been well managed and as a result the country is not as well off as the dreams mr moody and his colleagues manage to sell to the voters the big risk therefore is it may turn around and once again whip up communal sentiment in order to compensate for the deficiencies of

their economic performance in what is going well we invite the indian ambassador on to. give a challenge that thank you very much as you are thank you i should talk. about it for one of your favorite shows of the season will continue to show your favorite episodes and the way back for season one wins a fifth of september deal that comes about by a social media season. uhm . not enough it's really. it was a live alls from somewhere you know. i came back to the community. people we are based on the you know the road lookouts me oh look

out is over i will go towards him. that's. right. say. she's going to go to mississippi and it doesn't. give us all that. don't. know we're going to this. up close the cut cost us up top you mean my life. i seem on have to die. good politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or

rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. want to be rich. but you're going to be for us to see what before three in the morning can people that i'm interested always in the waters of my. first city. it was you know provision on my back when i wanted to. ask but i. said oh. you're so you know i lost his boss because i just bought bagel got then you just gotta go resources you know. anybody among my fellow those in person but that's honest i don't mean any of them. so i said you know what i was you know i got you know just i mean my most wanted i'm already but it was sped up out of me just a lot of the media and even i remember the lord. has been up and i must admit that

he feels i just don't get it i'm getting worse but those were the old people sounds those people are going to respect i'm one of those but i was listening to this where this part of this i'm going to scream i want my family fussy you could a car bomb i just bought that already he said whiskey and he thought if you think of it i think with you you seem to mean to carry out my thought aloud problem you just got to go you. the taste is. natural food is good. healthy lifestyle is good. good food russia sharing goodness.

top stories here on our team international foreign assistance sales and credit lines to russia all the focus of fresh u.s. sanctions targeting moscow we understand they come into force on monday. with brazil's presidential election looming the latest polls put jail for my leader silva out in front. but. trade talks with china beijing has reportedly decided to wait and see him each month until after the mid-term election. also scotland's first minister the country's government inquiry into his alleged sexual misconduct is illegal though he does give us his side of the story. you know anything like this the papers of having a fear of having

a field of. i'm not afraid the scottish government process doesn't do that you don't get to see the evidence you don't get to yeah there's a. moment here at moscow on the south and you want you know it's you to national a very warm welcome to you. the united states says that fresh sanctions against russia will kick in on monday the penalties are linked to claims that the kremlin orchestrated a nerve agent attack in the u.k. and will target russia's financial sector as well as sales to moscow reporting now from washington so america. now the new batch of sanctions will come into force on august twenty seventh and will prohibit russia from importing security us goods and technology related to national security but there were also a few waivers first the foreign assistance act which would have terminated all aid

to russia except for urgent humanitarian assistance is waves so. the prohibition on arms sales that was introduced in two thousand and fourteen will also be waived determined on a case to case basis a state department official said that these waivers are essential to national security third arm sales of financing which has been in place already sanctions it will deny u.s. government credit and financial assistance ban exports of secure goods and tech a few days ago president putin said that these sanctions were counterproductive let's take a look. regarding the sanctions those actions are counterproductive and meaningless especially when it comes to a country like russia it's not just about the u.s. president's position it's about the position of the so-called establishment the ruling class in broader terms i hope the realisation that this policy has no future will come one day and we will cooperate in a normal fashion these sanctions were announced earlier this month over russia's alleged involvement in the script paul poison in which there is still no evidence for russia has repeatedly denied its involvement and has even offered its

assistance to the k in investigating the incident but this was apparently ignored now as russia gets slapped with sanctions it's very likely that we'll see russia respond with to for tat measures can stone from the hamilton coalition to stop the war told us why the sanctions will have the opposite effect to the one intended it's time the united states started to realize that in the days of the uni polar world are over and the united states needs to have a meaningful consultation rather than hysterical accusations with russia and russia does not need u.s. military assistance russia has developed a cutting edge systems which are in demand all over the world all that the u.s. is really doing is forcing russia to become even more self-sufficient than i was before so these military sanctions against russia are going to have exactly the opposite of this is completely

a robber created issue this is there we're over russia and assume. be american government grows up and actually like an adult the sooner the american people and the rest of the world of course will be thank you. so trump russia collusion stories once again gaining momentum but now one u.s. t.v. channel is under fire with it even suspected of having direct links to the kremlin daniel hawkins looks into the claims we've all heard about trump russian election collusion you know the great scam that brought the u.s. president to power he was asian of collusion collude passably smells a whole lot like collusion there was ample evidence of collusion where is the closure you know there's still looking for collusion where is the delusion finds a can lose your little did we know the conspiracy goes deeper now it's in the media it started with a trump tweet on proposed land expropriations and alleged murders of white farmers

in south africa covered prior to this by fox news president of south africa posed has begun and you may have seen this in the press seizing the land from his own citizens without compensation because they are the wrong skin color that is literally the definition of racism it's a story that's been making headlines for quite some time in different outlets and in multiple countries but there's just too many coincidences here our coverage by r.t. to that list throw in russia and things get heated i'm simply shocked shocked shocked that r.t. has also been pushing a story line similar to tucker carlson's about threats facing white south african farmers including this family they claim sought refuge in russia. thanks for pointing out i did know that threat to south african farmers was a major story on r.t. there must surely be a link here a fox news report trumps twitter feed r t there's

a clear pattern if of course we ignore the fact this shuttle has covered related issues in south africa for quite some time the south african parliament has voted in favor of new legislation that could see land from white farmers seized south africa's government has vowed to tackle violent crime a problem that it says places an equal threat for all races living in the country just outside south africa's capital stands the statue of the man who was behind the earthly policies of apartheid it's a whites only enclave which allows black visit is only under special permit the discrimination of the apartheid in south africa has long come turn that all the evidence is obvious trumps been talking to the russians again and r.t.e. collude with fox or what to cover when and how it all adds up this u.s. of illustration just loves putin and next time you see reports in russian media that's also covered by other media that's also been tweeted by trump you'll know

what's really going on. brazil's presidential election is about one month away but the current favorite in the polls faces a major uphill battle that's because lula da silva the former president is currently liquoring in jail artie's within a cotton over reports. brazil's presidential election is looming and the latest polls to show one clear favorite and he is a familiar face lula da silva his companion has all the regular features rallies full of adoring supporters. through. merchandise branding his name and the must have complained ad set to a traumatic music. show but he's going to have. to discuss it. if you think about it.

but here's the twist mr silva is currently serving a twelve year sentence for corruption still that hasn't stopped his ringing political aspirations and his party registered him for the race days before his imprisonment the law told r.t. about his intentions will but i did look at your face at my party wants me to run for president they support my candidacy and i'm ready to do it and when you lection . before handing himself over to police in april thousands of the former president supporters formed a human shield around the building he was and claiming the charges were politically motivated he was convicted of trading feet first with a construction company in exchange for the promise of a beachfront apartment a former model worker himself lula became a hero of the working class as the economy soared during his eight years at the helm finishing back in twenty eleven. although

for sound has become associated with the barrage of political scandals that have hit brazil corruption was rampant all people in the workers' party were corrupt that used again very flimsy trumped up charges of being corrupt but it was the entire political system so yes the population obviously was. as a government in power when there is rampant corruption but the corruption was all the political parties and looking at his present sounds busy visiting schedule taking his plans seriously just this week he was reported to be visited by the had of brazil's most powerful trade union and his face presidential running mate brazil's thirty fifth president currently occupies a fourteen square meter room and has reportedly allowed to wear his own classing his sad to have his own t.v. and a trad mel where he jocks for miles daily still it's a long shot even folau convicted felons are banned from running for office and

electoral court is expected to declare him in alledge of zero in coming weeks lou is not going to be able to run what he's trying to do is to increase as much as possible support for the workers' party and then so he wants to keep that alive his candidacy is alive for as long as possible and then at the last minute when he's no longer possible transfer all of that support that he is building up currently to his vice presidential running mate running mate which is his favored candidate to replace him if he can't run and again that fernando who was a the mayor of san pablo and is not popular at all while things look unpredictable now one thing is certain election season and brazil hasn't senate sliced twist just yet and in the question are. we spoke to the next president's lawyer who told us little silver is it ching to get on the come.
