we. need a minimum of been to live one you called me on my cell phone and told me that you are a slum bullshit and the looks on the patrol you send it off with one. we if you really look like the pictures shown to us by the u.k. doesn't mean that if the. next year. when the someone why you. and we are those who are shown to you in the pictures but muslims bashir of. and i was under petro of the russians there are those your real names national yes they are real names now does he just called them but even now when you are talking about it to tell you the truth you look very nervous on them in. a convoy of well what would you look like your record when your life is turned upside down in a moment in just one day and changed our lives. they exam this is the t.v. footage from london you walk in those now famous coats and sneakers and soles brick . walls are these people you yes. what were you doing

there and our friends have been suggesting for a long time that we visit this wonderful town souls' brewery a wonderful town yes a tourist town. there is the famous solsbury cathedral famous not only in europe but in the whole world. it's famous for its one hundred twenty three metre spire. on the meaning. it is famous for its clock one of the first ever created in the world that still working just sent me some. time in total to me to come out of it. this is so you came to souls agree to take a look at the clock and then you have the summer when the child no we plan to visit london at first and have fun there was a little know what it means players but it wasn't

a business trip this time. and we planned to go to london and then to salisbury as him so as mideast yes another symbolism or we didn't you know but when we were almost there we thought the plane wouldn't land on the first drive it was there was a heavy snow storms but that's because of all the havoc they had with the transport in the u.k. on march second in the third of may because of heavy snow fall but nearly all the cities were paralyzed because we were unable to go anywhere. do you work for the g.r.u. world and you meet and you and i don't either but no one accuses me of working for the jerry used but you are being accused of that your colleagues accuse us of that by your colleagues you mean journalists who are being accused by u.k. authorities and yes that's the scariest thing where do you work you are adults you need to make a living if we tell you about our business people we work with will be affected tell me anything so that we believe you know everyone has questions what do you do to cut a long story short we're in the fitness industry that is here and change that she

didn't give her view on purpose preferring to leave it to the viewers to decide whether to believe the man or not here's what she had to say following the interview. i knew they were nervous and sweating a lot i had to turn up the air conditioning a lot higher than usual and still they were sweating and wiping their foreheads which obviously happens when people are nervous they could be a lot of reasons for it i understand this was the first interview in their lives but they could have been nervous for other reasons as well that's also possible they refused to show their i.d.'s on camera because they didn't want to be pursued and identified further but they showed them to me that i did not run the polygraph on them as a journalist i believe what they see i saw those were the people i saw their i.d.'s and that they feed the photos and videos what was going through their minds and whether they were speaking the truth it's hard to see well it seems the latest development in the story has only intensified the media's finger pointing at russia

look the russians say this is all been made up by the british but you know this alibi which is very flimsy indeed is not going to convince many people there in russia say from extradition to many here in the u.k. tonight the t.v. message from moscow was clear they got away with it in terms of of whoever ordered them to go and carry out this mission it was not a great success it looked extremely uncomfortable they did not want to be there they clearly did not appear to be really properly briefed the u.k. has branded alexander and reza liars while the u.s. has proposed imposing a second round of sanctions on russia artie's polyploid to answer americana been looking at the international reaction from both sides of the atlantic. i'm a spokes person has rubbish the accounts provided by alexander patrol for a share of and they've used pretty strong language to do it take

a listen the lies and blades in for brooke asians in this interview given to a russian state sponsored t.v. station are an insult to the public's intelligence well that same government statement goes on to say that an illegal chemical weapon was used on the streets of the country and that four people seriously ill in hospital and an innocent woman died and russia has responded with contempt now this is the second official statement that we've had from the government from downing street earlier on immediately after the interview was first ed there was a statement from the government and it was similarly scathing take a listen the government is clear these men are offices of the russian military intelligence service the g.r.u. who used to devastatingly toxic illegal chemical weapons on the streets of our country we have repeatedly asked rush to account for what happened in salzburg in march today just as we've seen through what they have responded with obfuscation

and laurie's so i think to say that the british authorities aren't buying it is to say nothing at all really no one's going to be lining up to give them any acting accolades certainly not here in the u.k. are the politicians have been rather skeptical to the member of parliament for soulsby john glenn said that soulsby welcomes tourists from around the world and it is very much open for business but the patrol of the sheriff's statements according to john glenn are not credible and don't match the widely accepted intelligence that the u.k. has on these individuals so you can see that this is a stance that it's getting worse and we've got to the next stage of it now because we've had a response from the russian foreign ministry spokesperson that's maria's the horror of us so she. responded to the u.k.'s response to the interview and she has some questions for the british authorities issued this issue and then you've got i believe it's absolutely unacceptable to accuse people of telling lies forty minutes

after they have spoken so i repeat my question directly to the british side what is the legal basis and framework for accused russian citizens of telling lies forty minutes after noon to view what was the reason for that what was so specifically non-credible in what they said when official authorities accuse someone of telling lies he must be responsible for those so again it looks like we're getting statements and counter statements but that doesn't appear to be any dialogue taking place between london and moscow right now the us is getting ready to impose more sanctions on russia in november for allegedly poisoning the script halls and that's according to assistant secretary of state nations think check out what she had to say we plan to impose a very severe second round of sanctions under the c.b.w. the global community will not tolerate behavior such as we've seen from russia

especially in poisoning and killing its own citizens we are absolutely prepared to fully implement the second round of sanctions says it will include banking sanctions a prohibition on obtaining defense articles and aid money but back in august it was stated that the second round of sanctions could include cutting diplomatic ties with russia and ing all aeroflot travel and stopping all imports and exports but things said that the second round of sanctions would not be imposed if russia commits to on site inspections we have indicated to them that they can evade they can make themselves not subject to these sanctions if they allow the on site inspections as you've indicated if they give us a verifiable assurance that they will not use these nerve agents against their own people again they have not. done so so far it should be noted that last october the un verified the destruction of russia's chemical weapons and confirm that all of russia's chemical weapons facilities were closed through onsite inspections do you

think they're going to admit their use goes on their own people congressman at this point it's not even a matter of russia admitting it we we know that they did that are you know this all began when a former double agent and his daughter were poisoned back in march chuck was determined to be the agent used and everyone blamed russia because the agent was originally developed in the former u.s.s.r. but since ninety one it's been developed in several other countries russia has repeatedly denied involvement and has even offered to cooperate in an investigation and the o.p.c. w. and porton down the british lab that analyzed the samples couldn't even identify the source or country of origin with all that being said all we can do right now is wait until november to see if the sanctions are indeed imposed. a potential bias of google has once again been called into question also a leaked video showed the company's executives expressing disappointment back in

twenty sixty that don't trump the election when ati's donald quarter picks up the story google's always tried to maintain a political front but recently tells a very different story and if true it outlines google's executives pick for president in the twenty sixteen presidential elections most people here are pretty upset pretty sad for. because of the election i certainly find the selection deeply offensive and i know many of you do too this is none other than surrogate brin google's cofounder and if his assumption that every worker in the video was a clinton voter was upsetting it gets worse. that was the first moment i really felt like we were going to lose and it was really doing all it did feel like a ton of bricks dropped on my chest and that right there is the chief financial officer of google's parent company alphabet ruth poor at holding back tears at the

thought of their election defeat but whose defeat exactly last time i checked google wasn't a wing of the democratic party nevertheless they seem to have a mutual understanding on why trump won zina phobia hatred and a desire for answers that mean it may not be there here we have senior vice president for global affairs tend to walker looks like despite google's claim to objectivity walker's got some pretty partisan views on american politics but google maintains those are personal views ones that don't affect their product. to the rise of fascism and also to the communist revolution i think it's worth be very vigilant in thinking about all these issues what can we do to lead to. maybe a better quality of governance decision making and so forth solid explanation of ideologies that shaped the twenty first century sergey but fair enough google is

looking for ways to make the world better but that hasn't stopped the flow of accusations that their strategy is politically biased like that time google removed a pro-life singers music video on you tube. i had no. and you tube's move to hit popular users before conservative users especially president is draining the small time with this it was going to be it bottles enough to make it a movie. but there are some google who don't agree with the company's liberal leanings james to moore a conservative engineer wrote a memo just a memo to highlight potential bias in google's policy and he was fired for it google has several biases

a new discussion about these biases is being silenced by the dominant ideology what follows is by no means the complete story but it's a perspective that desperately needs to be told that google google has always claimed its hands were collina when it came to political bias hate speech or other inappropriate content the company always claimed it had its reasons but with insight into what the top brass at google is apparently thinking perhaps it's time for a better understanding of what bias really means quarter r.t. . the founder of the walk away campaign brandon straka has found himself banned from facebook this week it came off the hands that interview with the controversial info what was media platform the ban however was lifted later shortly after local way is a viral campaign on facebook encouraging liberal americans to leave the democratic party the movement involves over one hundred and eighty thousand members bryant and

straka told r.t. this is spent devastated his ability to reach his audience. lose my platform that way is devastating and essentially i think that what they are trying to do is to sabotage the walkaway march on washington using this info wars word as the catalyst to do it why should i be banned from using my social media platform for using the word info wars i wasn't even state i wasn't stating an opinion i wasn't being controversial i wasn't being provocative i was literally of lurching the members of my group that i was about to do an interview on a website info was assigned to run by controversial radio host alex jones it ranks up more than one and a huff and billion views on you tube however the platform was repeatedly criticized for promoting conspiracy theories and especially using hate rhetoric donald trump has previously expressed support for alex jones and various social networks banned

him and his media outlet for violating that policies recently announced he was being found permanently i think the base book is using its policies completely inconsistently because these bans and blocks and suppression only seem to affect people on the right they seem to only affect conservatives they never seem to have any impact on liberals or people on the left i never see them getting banned or suppressed it's time for action and to push for freedom of speech i mean this is what this is really about with their suppressing free speech. he has requested a comment from facebook about why brendan struck his account was banned well you know what they say if we get any response. now in germany activists clash with the police over the removal of an ancient woodlands with the full day's houseboy you off to the shop right.

please. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter us has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime stamped each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you long for the ultra rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent just last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per circuit per second and that one rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars you industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need remembering what one does not show you know for a minute one can only. welcome

back the u.s. state department has praised saudi arabia's actions to reduce violence in yemen saying reality is doing what it can to minimize civilian casualties that. see them taking steps is it perfect no absolutely not do we see them doing what they can to mitigate civilian casualties absolutely we do well the comments came after the u.s. secretary of state mike pompei o certified to congress the saudi led coalition is undertaking the long strip all actions well the answer to fixation allows washington to continue providing aid to riyadh in its war against rebels and

al-qaeda terrorists in yemen the saudi led bombing campaign against who think rebels which they deemed terrorists started back in twenty fifteen with substantial support from the us government militant groups like al qaida which washington has been fighting against for nearly two decades have taken advantage of the crisis capturing areas in the south of yemen r.t. the dawn of looks into how the u.s. approach in fighting al qaeda differs depending on the region all the motive. al qaeda a whole generation of americans grew up with these two words engraved in their minds since preschool years two words that have seen hundreds of thousands of u.s. troops fanned out all over the globe with an uncompromising objective to defeat terror.

for the past few years one battleground yemen some four thousand troops in the country even now and that's enough for the u.s. to turn a blind eye to schools hospitals and homes flattened by saudi bombs the administration's policy is to focus on ending the war and avoiding a regional conflict countering the threat from the islamic state of iraq in syria in yemen and al qaeda in the arabian peninsula but yemen is just the latest in a sequel which started back in two thousand and one in afghanistan where a force of between two and five thousand dollars to fight has ignited the now infamous war on terror on my orders the united states military has begun strikes against al qaeda terrorist training camps and military installations of the taliban regime in afghanistan today we focus on afghanistan but the battle is broader at

that point obviously it was a way to rally the country to to create you know a much larger military for the united states at that point between about two thousand and twenty eleven the united states spent about one point three trillion on its wars in iraq and afghanistan but al qaeda is biggest lead is not in yemen it's not in afghanistan it's in syria's northern prove. libya is a province just the largest al qaeda safe haven since nine eleven and it live now is a huge problem it is an al qaeda safe haven right on the border of turkey the un estimates al qaida is fortress manned by at least ten thousand offshoot fighters that's at least twice as many as in afghanistan back at the dawn of the war on terror yet washington is not nearly as trigger happy as one would expect while we had three

meetings in the security council on syria the sternest warnings came down from most members of the security council telling them that not just chemical weapons would be addressed by the united states and our allies but any offensive on the civilian people in adelaide was going to be dealt with when russia and the assad regime say they want to counterterrorism they actually mean they want to bomb schools hospitals and homes the obama administration had already loosened rules of engagement in the war against islamic state in syria and iraq to permit more killing of civilians in the bombing campaign that the us conducted a they expended over one hundred thousand bombs and missiles to destroy cities like rocka and mosul president trump has reportedly loosened the rules of engagement

further america's humanitarian concern for syria is remarkable especially in the sense that it's seemingly peripheral elsewhere except the terrorists don't exactly share washington's geographical discernment. environmental activists fighting to protect an ancient woodland in germany have clashed with police soft or dieties attempted to clear their treehouse camp they've occupied the site for years as part of a bid to block the building of a coal. let this is one of the oldest the richest mixed forests in central europe this being the first day because arguably read once in mind here.

so in this forest we see many of the contemporary structures intersect the way that w. call it street extraction costs the climate change shifts from early infects people off the global south. where before there were some grand structure senior competing towns colors fireplaces and a storage platform they had permission to clear the barricades and guard which only but they went way beyond that the competition store shelters and took everything they could to try and let's watch a containers of bicycles tools and fruit. or. we cleared the barricades and vacated the treehouses we got people down from the trees all in all we're pleased up until now with how the operation is going because it's

been practically free of violence. i think it's the police screaming and i see our resistance. to your case this with violence in your fish. tanks chasing r.t. into nash. today we'll be back at the top of the hour with all the latest. because the swarm see the blood of them so moving. to build your school or local

the new civil war the country is clearly divided but trump didn't do this on his own there are two americas now and both co-exist. ross talking america divided i'm joined by my guest steve malzberg in new york he's a conservative political commentator in alexandria we have gregory copely he is author of sovereignty in the twenty first century and crisis for identity cultures nation states and civilizations and in williamsburg across who and langar he is.
