protests erupt in the libyan capital tripoli over the state of living conditions house amid seven years of war following the foreign intervention that. as the battle for it live looms we speak to a syria based journalist about life just kilometers away from the front line the village has been pummeled by missiles from terrorists in the outskirts of the heart a just a few kilometers away and it's been on a daily basis over the past many years. a top u.s. universities sparks outrage after creating a safe space for white students to discuss race issues we head to both sides of the

debate. and in germany the rift in society over migration shows no sign of healing as yet more anti migrants and progress future rallies are held in cities across the country the issues now threatening to bring down anglo merkel's coalition government. a warm welcome and it is very good morning to you wherever you are you're watching r.t. international with me. now crowds that have gathered in the libyan capital tripoli calling for the president and other leading politicians to quit their protesting over the current disastrous situation in the country which still remains in a deep political crisis since protests sparked an armed struggle there seven years ago moreover libya is still divided by two rival governments and armed groups.

one government which is backed by the u.n. is based in the capital tripoli while the other is located in tobruk and also controls large past. of the east of the country some zones are still controlled by militias and isis years down the line some european countries now express regret at their involvement in the nato led intervention in libya jacqueline very reports in march of two thousand and eleven norway committed to the military intervention in libya leading to the ousting of gaddafi and the ruin country we see today but a shock norwegian state commission report now admits the country knew next to nothing about what they were doing and actually went to war relying on media reports norway had very limited knowledge of libya when the uprising started in february twenty eleven in such situations decision makers of the malone information from media and other countries colonel gadhafi continues to slaughter

his own civilians and he viciously targeted americans the international community offered the final chance to stop his campaign of killing or face the consequences for attacks by regime forces on the libyan citizens when they turned to us and asked us for help stopping a massacre how do you say no so also jumped on the bandwagon playing an alarmingly significant role and why shouldn't they it was by the book there was even a un security council resolution on the situation to cover them if you ignore all the commentators warning the resolution did not great insisting they were misunderstood is also change the group's name to anti racism and ally building group people are divided on the issue it's giving people a place to express their opinions on race and discuss important topics in a safer environment in general when people who are white discuss the topic it's

seen as inherently racist my not didn't every identity group have their space i'm sure most have a positive had and the goal to be approved the way i interpret it is that white people are being victimized by interacting with us. from my understanding it's simply a space for white students to get woke and learn to dismantle dangerous social preconceptions they might have these uncomfortable conversations but necessary for social progress the only harm i see is a becoming a white affinity group. now harvey was joined by political activist anthony watch as white and social commentator anthony by now going to discuss the controversial initiative i think that i'm not sure why white people would need to feel safe on a college campus person formalised i don't think that there are in any imminent danger and they certainly are in any more danger than say muslim students certainly students of color i think that as we heard from some of the students the poor

execution you know the name of the group having to change from white to weight is an indication that they pretty much aren't very educated on the issues of racism in the first place personally i don't see anything wrong with have been a group that is one particular race or they has one particular race and it's i do you can so shape with whatever you want to associate with you can have a white group black group asian group and all these other groups exist there's never any kind of problem nobody says anything about and i see no organization on campus the black organization on campus they organization on campus but we have a white organization all of that is a problem either we have many groups there are no specific groups or we allow all of them yeah so so two things i mean i think we have to be clear and stating that first of all people of color especially black people can and cannot be racist ok because racism only if we change it is an racial prejudice there is no there's no

debate as race racism is not something that you can just turn on the taunts on off color anybody could be racist that that's not your you have to have power to be racist you have to have power black people don't have power most latin next people don't have power native american people don't have power now i would deny that black and brown people can be bigoted but that is different from racism racism is racial prejudice i mean it's power issues that according to ses day you have to have power to be racist i mean when did i definition become the standard. i never seen it before is that exactly legalese i mean i don't think that like we can go by a dictionary that was written mainly by white people to force standard definition on an issue like racism as we saw in the scene a mix of spike lee's movie when you look at that dictionary and just look at the definitions of white and black you can already see implicit bias and racial prejudice right right just those two words that were in this particular group i

think they were more on the extreme liberal side they're trying to actually come together and help those so called people of color people just sort of fly or automatically get offended without taking the time to really understand what's going on that's why he changed his name because i didn't want anybody to just think automatically oh we're some kind of racist hateful group they're really on the side of the left i think this right here eggs an example of the left eating their own. let's turn to syria and the region of the last major terrorist have there will dominate talks between the presidents of russia and turkey later on monday and the russian city of sochi with more details has made a caution. is there a second to meeting in the last ten days the last time at a summit in tehran the leaders couldn't agree on the future cause of action so today is a very important the fate of the last a major terrorist stronghold and we're talking about the province of is going to be discussed at this meeting we also believe that the two parties will discuss the

syrian peace settlement as the turkish president has been calling quite unsuccessfully for a cease fire declaration in the province of lip so where do russia and turkey stand well turkey fear is that out large scale a fountain of against it will cause a new influx of refugees into its territory already is hosting over three and a half a million syrians so turkish officials are saying that they're ready to cooperate with anyone and fight. terrorism you know the war with iran the war with united states and. all partners. in syria so the positions of all players are so very different and that is what makes the situation so complicated the u.s. say that they're not going anywhere until there is peace in the region they're also not at all happy about iran's participation and now

a western politicians and mainstream media called the possible offensive a disaster and a big humanitarian tragedy without offering any solution on how to fight terrorism apart from just simply bombing the army so while turkey has been massing troops in the province of idlib russia has been carrying out its own military exercises so this meeting is and another at tam for all parties to work out a joint position on the future cause of action the u.n. estimates ten thousand. those were terrorists remain in the province but what poses a launched about nani to people living in the region but also to those bordering it or last week we reported on a man who lost his entire family in a terrorist shelling off to the village was targeted for being christian we are continuing to follow this tragic story.

several days ago a rocket landed in front of my house my mom wife and three children are dying to remember how i called home and no one could examine them my friends came to me and said run home your family is injured and i came here and saw my mom terribly wounded and i saw my children and i took them to hospital straight away but it was too late. when they were martyred it was after they took. this one belongs to susi the youngest. this was fridays and this was maria's. and this is his bag. fatties bag. this is stephanie's back.

this is maria's bag. this is maria's bag. lady we spoke to journalist eva bartlett who visited the village of my day about the situation in syria and what western t.v. screens failed to show amidst the upcoming battle. there i talked to the civil that started the national defense forces and they spoke at length about how the village has been pummeled by missiles from terrorists and it's been on a daily basis over the past many years and they said you know they've been suffering nobody is talking about it and they're looking forward to the liberation of it live because it will ease their suffering it will it will mean the sation of these terrorists. so these are the kind of things that the media which is busy talking about corporate media which is busy talking about it live are completely negating happening on a daily basis in modern day. what syrians i've spoken with around the

country on previous visits and currently say they want a restoration of all of syria to peace and they want an end to the terrorism that's been plaguing them. or as we saw formerly in eastern hour before that in aleppo and it's their right to live in peace and it's also their right and the syrian government of syria's right to fight such terrorism because we're not talking about the mythical moderate rebels we're talking about al qaeda we're talking about. and these are terrorists that have been torturing civilians and executing civilians wherever they happen to occupy. while the syrian and russian governments have been using tools of diplomacy if you'll recall they've opened humanitarian corridors they've offered amnesty and reconciliation to terrorist who lay down their weapons but on the contrary it's these factions within the lives that are saying we will kill any terrorist militants rebels that fake whatever they want to

call them we will kill them if they participate in amnesty and reconciliation so clearly yes there is a desire for a peaceful resolution to this and the syrian russian government has been offering tools for such a peaceful resolution so to come the woman in new york who is charged with making up a story she was the victim of a hate crime by trump loyalists was how you more on this after the break. thank you.

what politicians do you should. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to express. some want to. achieve right. it's like the. people. interested always in the why. they should. welcome back only fifteen hundred antti migrant protesters took to the streets of

the german city of curtain over the weekend the demonstration comes a week after a twenty two year old local man died of a heart attack is understood his death occurred shortly after a street brawl with afghan migrants sunday's rally was called by the anti migrant alternative for germany party as well as the anti islam piggy to movement among the slogans seen at the protest was a call to draw borders the demonstrations also stressed that the main point of the rally was to pay respects to the slain victim there was also a reference to the events in another german city ken knits which is seen violent clashes in recent weeks. thanks. thanks. thanks.

on the latest events and chemists have seen politicians and some my current organizations his house or the country's head of intelligence allows off the he called into question the way the media has covered the violence in the city. i share the skepticism about media reports of right wing extremist foreigners in kemet is based on my cautious assessment there are good reasons to believe that this was intentional false information possibly to detract attention from the murder inc and that muslims comments could potentially see the current german coalition government collapse as the social democrats are calling on angela merkel to sack him while the chancellor appears we're locked into to go this far meanwhile apart from anti my god rallies there have been plenty of progress e.g. demonstrations across germany to fight the latest took place in cologne on sunday and many in germany say they're worried by the apparent rise of the right.

classes even the big objects were pelted at the restaurant and myself some hit the window panes others hit the infant's sign there were also things flying along the terrace and one story hit me on my right shoulder i was really terrified with my adrenalin moaning and crying i was half stoned and wasn't able to understand much but still i managed to make out the words jewish pig and that i should get out just . like in the back of my mind i realized that i should take a few photos that i would like myself later on how many people there were because at the time it seemed like it could have been three or a hundred people there i didn't want to exaggerate it looked like

a mass of people were going to take two photos and went back into the restaurant i told the customers they should stay inside that it was no fun outside police i g a political analyst reign of office believes german politicians aren't doing themselves any favors by indiscriminately branding concerned citizens as mere nazis . we have definitely just a problem in germany which. quite considerably since twenty years and the german authorities should react and not start cleaning calculations for their own activity in handling the refugee crisis and its impact on the security situation the population is really divided and so it would be very very important to differentiate between a very few right wing extremists about all. of germany and

a large part of the population which is just worried about the situation and to throw the development and the lack of adequate response was by our political decision makers. authorities have arrested and charged a black woman in long island new york for making up a story about a tramp related hate crime were louis told to tech tips that four teenagers had confronted her as she was driving home yelling at trump twenty sixteen before stating that she did not belong here lewis also claimed after parking in front of her house she awoke the next morning to find her car's tires slashed and a note with the words go home however police found lowe is a fabricated the tale and even wrote the note herself though it's now waits trial for making a false punishable written statement. well this is not the first such case of its kind in november twenty sixth in an eighteen year old muslim woman in louisiana

told police she lied when she claims trump supporters removed her head up and called her names political commentator steve malzberg believes the media is giving people a reason to lie by pushing an image of trump as a racist. i think the woman is influenced by what she hears and sees in the media the media portrays donald trump is a racist homophobic xeno full of bigot not to see and i think that when you crave attention and you hear all these things naturally you're going to get attention and sympathy if you say oh oh you know this is true look what happened to me and by saying that for her trump supporters surrounded her told her to get out and then slash her tires the next morning she had her ten seconds or fifteen minutes however you want to look at it you have attention it's a narrative driven by the media that this is going to happen to you if you're black and if you're a minority and if you're mexican if you're an immigrant or if you're gay this is

you're going to be attacked that's what the media and the left is telling you and she just went with the flow. the largest military drills in russia for more than three decades come to an end today the most dramatic action at vostok twenty eighteen took place on the firing range where a dozen war machines including t. seventy two tanks and armored personnel carriers were put through their paces a number of visits videos have been officially released as allowing people to get a real sense of the action including first person first pitch from one of the tanks taking parts of three hundred thousand soldiers on thirty six thousand military vehicles which took part in the games are all now heading home to their bases. thanks for joining us this hour on r.t.e. international will be back at the top of the hour with the latest.

when else truths seemed wrong why don't we just don't call. me world yet to shape out. because that's a good. because betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. i said. there was a building also up. in the him about nutrition but. look
