on for five previous occasions so i knew they would be firing rubber coated steel bullets and see gas which they had before but always stayed to the side or at the back of the demonstrations on there as an observer to to witness what is happening. but of course there is a risk when attending anything that's where the i.d.f. is kristen force claims she was first to hit in the stomach while standing with her hands raised and later in the same week while leaning against the wall she was shot in the ankle and while rubber coated steel bullets are seen as non-lethal the injuries inflicted can be severe particularly when fired at close range the forty three year old norwegian activist has been supporting palestinian protesters in what they describe as well the occupation of their land by israel now the israeli army told r.t. that force had been standing among rioters at the time who had been violent towards its soldiers and says it will investigate force ourselves as the palestinians are
9:31 am
being subjected continually to violence i think is nearly one hundred people have been shot with live ammunition over the years. hundreds have been shot by these bullets that i was shot with i've been to you guys they've had skunk water into their houses but they're not getting any attention we are here to witness what is happening and share it with the world and hopefully some someone will. get some attention and. the u.k. is women's minister victoria atkins has been criticized by l. g.b.t. activists after a suppressing concern over the rising number of children are wishing to change their gender. i read in the paper recently there has been a large increase in the number of teenagers who are identifying a such and i think we need to get down to the reasons why this is happening it may simply be a case of greater awareness it may be that they seize his annoyances to questions
9:32 am
they are perhaps not asking themselves transgender issues are increasingly being raised in the u.k. with initiatives being launched to recognise the community's rights and one recent example is scotland scotland's at emory university which is encouraging new students to wear badges with the pronouns hien she or they indicating how they want to be referred to another campaign is being run by the university's students' union as part of an effort to avoid so-called missed gendering however it says students should not use the preferred pronouns oversizing it's not a preference but it's a necessity we debated the issue with l.g. beauty activist peter tatchell and radio talk show host john gaunt. trans people do not choose to be trans they don't make this decision about gender reassignment career without very very serious long protracted thought and it is often agonizing
9:33 am
they face often rejection by their parents being thrown out of home and very high rates of suicide and attempted suicide so this is not a decision that a young person takes lightly and if they make the decision but they feel that they are one gender or another i think we should respect that i don't think it's a big deal to it's about common decency just about being kind and compassionate to other people so i don't i agree with that but bought a same token they should respect our rights to have a different view and when you talk about this this is always brought the thing about trans in serious side it isn't because they're struggling with the fact they think they're in the wrong body that leads and generally to the suicide it's aster when they realize they've made a dreadful mistake which is why the woman minister or the education minister is right to say we need to look at why more and more young people are trying to go through this we need to look at why puberty blocking drugs are being handed out
9:34 am
like smarties they don't know their own mind i agree with you peter it must be agonizing to needs time ministry thought about and they need to be of an age where they know that they are in the wrong body not giving them out to six year old eight year olds and ten year olds and you know that's happening peter and it's wrong let's be reasonable if somebody feels they are you know being assigned the wrong gender they're in the wrong body i have enormous sympathy for them but we shouldn't be kind of i don't really want to use this word but encouraging it which is what our edinburgh university is doing well no one is encouraging them and nor should anyone encourage them this is a call that's coming from the young people themselves whatever bar university is doing. if they have said people can change once one day to the next that's quite clearly absurd but you know what if the purpose of these badges is just to raise awareness and in particular to make transfusions and their friends and allies feel
9:35 am
comfortable safe and accepted i don't think that's a terrible thing i think it's just a common human decency to be current i know that's perfectly reasonable have made this decision what's not reasonable and how down a minute you are universities are trying to tell lecturers it happened at university of toronto of course famously with jordan peterson where they told him he had should not use things like hello ladies and gentlemen hello boys and girls they had to fit into these new pronouns if they want to say today i'm a man tomorrow am a boy the next hour my fridge freezer so that but i don't have to fainter i don't want to get into a situation where i have to change pronouns i have to change the english language for a minority of very small minority they are attacking my freedom of speech my freedom of expression trans people our reality their existence since time in war throughout history i think the fact that there are more people coming forward is because there is greater social understanding and acceptance the stigma and guilt is fading away
9:36 am
the issue has been discussed more openly and that is why more people are coming forward an agenda violence trans but it's still a tiny tiny minority a minority that is no threat to anyone and i think we should live and let live and except that people who are different for whatever reason including because their gender identity that they have a place in the human family and we are back in just a minute. when lawmakers manufacture consensus instead of public wealth. when the ruling classes to protect themselves. when the finance
9:37 am
a merry go round lifts only the one percent. that's not going all middle of the room signals. to leave the room very relieved is really. what politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president bush or. more somehow want to press. the to the right to be for us this is what the forecast for you in the morning can be good but. i'm interested always in the waters of our. question. thanks for joining us are enough at least five people have been killed and thirty

three wounded in libya amid fresh clashes between rival groups local militias and tribal fighters faced off in the streets of tripoli with tanks and pickup trucks with mounted machine guns several residential areas were hit by. shelling the clashes involve groups linked to the un backed government a quarter. if you've been following the headlines about libya you've probably heard a lot about post-war problems migrants traffickers the french presidents attempts to restore order there except the war never really ended. in just two days of violent clashes in libya's capital tripoli the health ministry confirmed five fatalities and thirty three injuries but that's just another bloody footnote in a country plagued by the instability of
9:39 am
a post nato bombing regime right well this time not quite two warring factions the so-called seventh brigade and another group of hostile local militias they began throwing serious firepower at each other on sunday in areas densely populated by civilians and the kicker they both support the current u.n. backed interim libyan government which for its part simply tried to distance itself from the whole mess we were in these gangs and groups that have terrorized civilians and residents there is no space for such lawlessness and chaos despite a shaky cease fire brokered on monday the situation is still on doubted lee tense but it's hard to imagine how anyone in any country divided between so many political lines could hope for peace first of all three rival governor. it's all claim control over the country there's the un backed presidential council the rival government of national salvation and the so-called tobruk government let's not
9:40 am
forget the various tribes and militias in libya which are always looking for a power grab and the icing on the cake is still remains a significant force in the country just last week they attacked a military checkpoint killing at least four people with such lawlessness and lack of any power capable of reigning in the violence pockets of fighting have been bubbling up over across libya this for example is the town of sabah it's essentially been reduced to rubble and although the ceasefire there has been in effect for over two months already people haven't forgotten the violence i swear to introduce of the war it was a time of terror shells and. one show my house and my family's now displaced in the end this is the outcome before you it is the view that speaks not me the houses are old destroyed no water no electricity some electricity and water has
9:41 am
been restored. and life will settle slowly it wasn't too long ago back during the libyan revolution when we heard western leaders using those same old promises of spreading freedom and democracy. you would get rid of a dictator and you would choose freedom. thank you. supporting the people of libya as they build a future that is free and democratic and prosperous. seven years on from the west's empty promises and tripoli continues to awake amidst explosions for more than just one reason sometimes it's fighting and sometimes it's even fishermen using dynamite my wife and i enjoy the peace and quiet friday mornings by the sea but the explosions as early as seven am remind us of all that
9:42 am
is wrong in this country. but it shouldn't be much of a surprise especially in a country absolutely saturated by weapons my whole house and my old windows shake with every blast and i have to reassure my grandchildren that it's only people fishing not nato bombs all over again. a german mother has sparked controversy by posting a video on facebook after finding out her son was one of only two german speaking kids in his kindergarten in the city of s. and in it she says he feels like a foreigner in the copper mine is almost influence in their twenty five children my son's group two of them speak german the others don't speak german at all is it integration of twenty three children have fun with each other while my son doesn't understand them and can find any way to connect with them is that integration of my son has to adapt to them my son and i feel like foreigners here is that what you want to do politicians is this integration that other children seemingly don't have
9:43 am
to adapt because they understand each other and now my son has to adapt to these other children this is not integration dear politicians the parents of muhammad ali or whatever they're called to do not have to complain she also stressed that she is not blaming the children in the daycare center or their parents for the situation or later she apologized for her comments but decided not to look at the video as it did go viral. to have an estimate so i have course i didn't expect such a storm of reaction i made this video had a very emotional moment i just wanted to share my frustration and never expected two million people to watch it i can only speak for myself it's a big problem in my city but many people have written to me and i learned that it's a country wide problem not just region and of course i believe that integration is very important but my son has now put in a t. to develop he should speak more german adapt to a culture and it doesn't work when there are almost no germans in the city has set
9:44 am
this group up and nixed the children incorrectly and as a result will end up with lost children no once because german no one can integrate and this loss is on both sides i can see it in my son officials from the us and kindergarten so that this is a special additional group created by the city due to the lack of places and other kindergartens and they insist is still a common language and children just need more time to adapt earlier we spoke to be on top of solely from germany's left party he thinks that the mother should look at the situation quite differently and consider it as an advantage for her son she has a very narrow minded approach and i don't want to judge sure but i don't know whether she has experienced other cultures and i think that's where her son who's going to this cannot be has an advantage because he gets to know other cultures and other languages and it early age that an opportunity that she apparently didn't get
9:45 am
there is not only children cannot go on this educators german educators as well and it's their role to teach the children german language and german culture but i think children can also learn from each other nowadays in germany where not a country where only one language is spoken on the streets and where we only have one culture and one prizzi's we have all different kinds of cultures and in twenty years when those children will be participating in the labor market. things will have changed even more twenty five past the hour here in moscow thanks for joining us on this wednesday certainly more stories for you at the top of the.
9:46 am
four men are sitting in a car when the feds get shot in the head. four different versions of what happened one of them is on the death row there's no way he could have done it there's no possible way because they did not shoot around a corner. i'm after times when you're watching going underground while they're away with screening some of your favorite episodes of this season coming up on this show we speak to grammy award winning artist jimmy cliff about wars funded by colonialism
9:47 am
from vietnam to afghanistan as well as money in a welding factory and the hostile environment that began long before to raise them a good mexico be the next venezuela we speak to founder and chairman of the mexican chamber of commerce of great britain eve i owed it to lee about what president elect andres manuel lopez obrador means for the world plus his brics it's no surprise given the e.u. policy on the jailing of democratically elected politicians on the day new spanish pm peder sanchez meets his catalonian counterpart we get the take of us by the european parliament's committee on foreign affairs jordy so that all this of all coming up today is going underground but first on this day in one nine hundred sixty two singer bob dylan recorded the song that would make him a star blow in the wind he introduced it by saying it was no protest song later though he said that the greatest protest song ever. written was by someone we speak to today we caught up with the grammy award winning artist and film star known for
9:48 am
you can get it if you really want out of a come many rivers to cross i can see clearly now and countless others jimmy cliff speaks to us at a hotel in west london jimmy you're touring across europe across the world the big talk here across the world obviously trumps america but here is after the injustice of the wars there is migration. that the moment the european union is cutting down on migrants what is behind this all refugees sub-zero you've heard of exactly not actually about this going away gratian oh yeah but refugees was triggered by the migration situation that was going on in you know some of the places i called you know naked across the sea coming home to italy come from libya come over and so that touch me
9:49 am
and. you know as i'm touched by it i expressed it refugee situation has been going on for quite a while so why i mention. jesus christ went to egypt for refuge is because the fundamental christianity. and all of the more to stick religions for that matter you talk about them as well yeah all the moment a sequel asians you know that came out of aber missive they all believe in their holy books they write about. egypt as a bad place and are yet to go there if i hear that. one ghetto in london is a bad place in my son or daughter is in a bad way. i'm not going to send my son go to there but
9:50 am
if it's a good place and my son or daughter needs refuge i send them there so it contradicts what they're saying about egypt being a bad place absolutely not wasn't with the scandal here and the prime minister calls it a scam to living here even though is the windrush scandal about the deportation of men women and children of africa are being sent who came in the in the forty's fifty's to build the health service and so it came as a shock to the elites in this is that something like that could happen and they have they lost many of the children in the system there with you heard about the windrush scandal yet while the majority of the people are void of the knowledge of what went on in those days before and they came no one dark teaches children about it is not something that is inconclusive in the school
9:51 am
system and all of that so one wants to know about social justice for real one has to do some research and so you know that is not not is not right just right what was it like when you first visited britain from to record they wanted to send them back where you would be are we talking about when you first came to london nineteen sixty five sixty five yeah they wanted to send back because. you know the red tape situation passport and you don't have that and you do that and so fortunately or unfortunately their record company that invited me they were there and you know. they can pull strings so sit our call up that one guys my friend and i can't you know that's our system of so they could call up somebody and say hey this person is all right he's
9:52 am
coming here but when i came out i wanted to go back and replay it. too far be too cold in this was want to look around i love my wall i'm suddenly jamaica is this what i come for oh i want to go back however i stayed in. a moment of things i again the wealth of knowledge used to see the the story that you helped discover boboli and you're in a welding shop in your acre let's clarify that story is a true trait let's make it straight i don't discover them in a welding shop they were both working in a welding shop together and guess what they could came to me and i auditioned him
9:53 am
and. he got to some one accord so you'd hear for went back to bob where they used to work and some together and. bob bob said this on together and. told bob and bob came down and i auditioned them and he got his first songs recorded just the same you know so i didn't discovered i just was the man. no one's heard of global in the it isn't in it but anyway today there was like welcome x k j give or big waves a little fame was in the twenty first century did you get to meet. strangers thing is. when i went to new york. they might come and cause one to speak. i was on my way to the boardroom and heard it don't work oh he's gone so. that's it you were
9:54 am
you interested in the in the in the bad your rights over the good well as a as it seems there in history books well you do the killing. before the villains preach. welcome to. the jerusalem i don't know you know the media. artist obvious when promote who they want to promote but when you look at that goes to freedom fighters they pass for a kind of different you know malcolm was blunt. just get to the point and maybe seek a violence in him you know fight fire with fire maybe he's sick of that was in him after we left the black muslim movement because he wasn't like that when he was in the black muslim movement martin being
9:55 am
a fundamentalist religious man he went about it in a different way so. how come i could identify with a lot because even though the experience in the united states in the city is different doggedly from jamaica here mark i'm a street that he grew up on the street in the new rough life of the street. martin was not like that. street man but he was eloquent and he did speak truth as well and this is his cause for justice to. but he went about it different when it comes to the our politics it's a mali's music and in your was people have some critics saying molly's music is more explicitly revolutionary your song was used by
9:56 am
a former british prime minister who appointed our present prime minister in the home office what did you make of david cameron using. you can get it if you really want and this is our prime minister who created the conditions for brics it actually leaving the european union. to cameron. touched over sensitive spot in me. when he came to shoemaker. and we were talking about. reparation and he said oh that's a long time ago oh don't do that what the jews did not say that so long time ago they never made the war forget what happened to them who why shouldn't we be paid for repairs and. you should you free slaves. and we watch what you got to live
9:57 am
on but not a penny so where is the repairs so when mr cameron said that it really touched me deeply in fairness to the authorities in fact there's a maumelle case about kenya going through the government says they lose quite a few of the papers about their own slaves the assets taken from the caribbean and so on you think that is a live issue this reparations this issue of reparations oh absolutely. it's just it's you know it's right it should be here looked at it should be done you know justice is justice it's like. the law of my heart the last poets came on our show and they're still protesting injustice talking about
9:58 am
these kinds of issues where where was your education in all this but how to deal with injustice not just to jamaica colonial jamaica but around the world with it where did you. read all this marcus. from my ira the beginnings that i can remember my father he even though a religious man was a very just man he would never allow any kind of wrongdoing to sleep by on the resign on his watch i mean a week was it about wrongdoing on such a big scale as it was you're saying no but you see when a small seed is planted in one if that was already inside the few grow it grows you have a day you don't have it so i already have this the descents ability inside of me about just justice i already agreed that was in meats
