i don't know but they get all that because they've been trained by the professional media ocracy industry and propagandists to run the big media outlets for people to have a trigger response to affordable health care equals communism. islamic state under sunni terrorists who claim an attack on a military parade in iran killing at least twenty eight people as the country marks the anniversary of the war with iraq. the u.s. state department accuses the syrian government and its allies of assisting terrorists in the country we examine whether the claims correspond with the reality

on the ground. collision course ahead of what's being billed as the biggest fight in mixed martial arts history irishman in qana mcgregor and russia's. meet the press with a pair set to do battle in two weeks time. if you're watching us this weekend welcome to your saturday news from c international i'm calling by welcome to the program first for you in iran that has been a deadly terror attack as saturday islamic states and another group claimed they had a parade commemorating the start of the iran iraq war from the one nine hundred eighty s. the four men who opened fire would dressed as a rainy and revolutionary guards in the southwestern city of warning that you might find the following video disturbing to watch.

persion most we suddenly realized armed people wearing fake military outfits were attacking their comrades from behind the stage and then opened fire on women and children they were just amos the shooting around without a specific target. says the four terrorists who had brought their guns to the area and hidden them several days ago under cover as civilians to watch the parade then they went and picked up their guns and opened fire on people. the standoff between sunnis and shias is historical iran became a theocratic state after its nine hundred seventy nine revolution as you can see here its population is almost entirely sheer terror has been quick to blame those they feel are sponsoring terror in the middle east. terrorists recruited trained armed and paid by a foreign regime have attacked. children and journalists among casualties iran

holds regional terror sponsors and their us mostest accountable for such attacks iran will respond swiftly and decisively in defense of iranian lives i believe. or islamic. of iraq and the lebanon militant they are trying to take your portion of the the chance in order to you know. claim some kind of power this is been done by a law a law was a year. and there stablished terrorist group it's known it's not an unknown terrorist group it has long had ties with seoul the arabia for the past several years and they've done a number of fall ball terrorist attacks in the same region of course on a much smaller scale and you know. this group has given out statement claiming that it is responsible all saudis have you know all of very

overt. with israel and the united states against iran. international leaders have reacted to the attack offering their condolences and expressing their willingness to fight terrorism in the region. president trump has delayed his own order to the task if i documents related to the ongoing russia collusion probe the files were expected to shed light on alleged conflicts of interest and ethics of certain f.b.i. and government officials. i met with the d.o.j. concerning the declassification of various unredacted documents they agreed to release them but stated that doing so may have a perceived negative impact on the russian probe also key allies called to ask not to release verb for the inspector general has been asked to review these documents on an expedited basis i believe he will move quickly on this and hopefully on other things which he is looking at in the end i can always declassify it if it proves necessary speed is very important to me and everyone. and on monday that the

president announced that he ordered the declassification of several pages of a surveillance warrant on former trump campaign aide carter page additional documents concerned ex f.b.i. director james komi as well as other former top f.b.i. officials keller morton has more on why the president put the potentially explosive document release on hold. this delay comes in apparently he's waiting for the department of justice to review the documents before they are made available to the public now this is quite a u.-turn from donald trump but when he initially spoke up he gave a very strong statement saying that he was going to make the documents from the probe very public that he had this authority as president we want transparency what i want is i want total transparency this is a witch hunt. republicans are seeing it that democrats know it's a witch on to but they don't want to admit it because that's not good politics for them but it's

a terrible witch hunt and it turned our country and i want transparency and so does everybody else we should open it up for people to see now donald trump mentioned the democrats and trump was certainly under a huge amount of pressure from the democratic party many democratic leaders were strongly opposed to donald trump making public documents related to the bob muller investigation now we had adam schiff who is a high ranking member of the house select committee on intelligence he went as far as to call this abuse of power to say that donald trump was acting completely inappropriate lee and harming the ability of the justice department to do its work now interestingly tensions are riding high in washington d.c. in relation to this probe into allegations that trump colluded with russia bob woodward a popular investigative journalist who wrote two books that were very popular in relation to the trumpet ministration he was being interviewed recently and in his radio interview he stated that in his two years and his two years of investigative

work at no point did he find anything showing that donald trump had colluded with russia did you bob woodward here anything in your research in your interviews that sounded like espionage or collusion i did it and of course i looked for it look for it hard now despite trump's announcement on monday that these documents would be made. made public it appears that that decision is on the whole department of justice is now reviewing the documents the bob mueller investigation continues with many people wondering what will come next and what exactly is the truth. a political analyst daniel mcadams says the democrats reluctance to see the documents declassified raises questions. i find it very interesting what a headache the democrats the leading democrats in washington are in over this and not only that but as we know our closest allies are also panicking and there

certainly is speculation as to who that might be is it the united kingdom is it the u.k. intelligence services who are seem to be up to their neck at least in this in trying to discredit ready to be president but what is really going on here i think it's really a fascinating it would be is an extraordinary. extraordinarily public view of i guess you could state and how it operates and how it can overrule the president in getting these things released for. the u.s. state department is blaming the rise of terrorism in syria on the country's government and its allies that's according to washington's latest report on the matter because none of analyzes whether the claims correspond with reality on the ground. with syria there are a few things that have all international play is on the same page the fact that al qaeda prowse freely through parts of this country is one just like they should know more the debate is about how and who is allowed the terrorists to thrive in

syria. over the past decade the surge regimes permissive attitude towards al qaeda and other terrorist groups fed the growth of al qaeda i saw in affiliated terrorist networks inside syria washington pins the blame unequivocally on the force that has spent a large part of the past seven years and lost tens of thousands of men repairing the terrorist onslaught. when peace in syria blew to kingdom come in two thousand and eleven al-qaeda was busy from the get go and given the chance to oust the assad government a fact the us validated itself. al qaeda in iraq supported the syrian opposition from the beginning both ideologically and through the media al qaeda in iraq declared its opposition to assad's government because it considered it a sectarian regime targeting sunni's so let me recap al qaeda supported the syrian

opposition washington also supported the syrian opposition when it comes to picking the company to entrench yourself with the us made the worse choice imaginable another assumption the new counterterrorism report makes is that syria made its border think grand central station allowing al qaeda to run loose in and out of iraq except damascus wouldn't have much time to facilitate that for the most part it had no access cut off by the opposition from its own border syrian regime border forces retreated from the border and the opposition forces took over the posts and raised their flag it wasn't until june last year when the syrian army began to recapture those parts of the country and it did so with the help of a rainy and pro-war rainy and forces who have proven to be a considerable power. but

in the world of the u.s. state department iran give us and take it because apparently on its own soil it forces the same terrorists it kills in syria it's a crazy standing of reality and its head but this is very common in the united states rand is helping the syrians defeat these terrorists in their countries but the united states says iran is supporting al-qaeda it behooves the united states to say that iran is involved in this because this builds a case against iran even though it makes no sense so the united states reports whatever needs to report to justify its foreign policy. the european broadcasting union has spoken out against policy changes at denmark's largest public t.v. and radio corporation they are criticized planned budget cuts and a push to reduce the promotion of multiculturalism. oh

ok sit together and we share something about the world about and. among the spoiled. instead focused has been shifted it says to the values of democracy and free speech the broadcaster also says the content will reflect the country's historically christian identity the changes were published by denmark's culture ministry and it's got parliamentary support as well another majority of that support comes from the anti immigration danish people's party as the second largest political force in the country it's been pushing for this media policy change the party is also called on d.r. to represent their marks christian cultural heritage to a greater degree the opposition though is none too pleased with the new plans. i think it's an incorrect prioritization of conservative values it's another step towards a political agenda that doesn't want to integrate people a former host of

a religious program on d.r. told us the moves being made to reinforce denmark's national identity. the previous guidelines also stated that christianity is part of sculptural heritage what is surprising it that they really stress it one more time because after my program closed down one religious program after the other has been shut down because chris and at sea and religion in general has not been protest with the immigration that the europeans and also the author of the danes has a problem to define their own identity it causes vary based on its christian foundations and its christian faith it's much easier for this society to integrate other people so i think that's why they want to stress it simply to strengthen their national identity which is very important in our time where there is so much division in the european societies. still to come this saturday clash of the titans

a night. if you thought you were driving the driving force of an eco friendly lifestyle by switching to electric cars all those years ago well california says you're wrong the u.s. state could be about to punish over two hundred thousand low wall and zero emission car owners as it tackles congestion problems electric vehicles bought before twenty seventeen set to be banned from priority lanes after six years of enjoying the perks of going green. if it's ok. you know there's no no. legal proof is the. grand you. went to college.

the green way each of you lean stickers on your cleaner cars will expire at the beginning of the year. i think as we take you as a think. they want to do is use a car charge for the carpool lane so you don't agree with their argument as to why they're doing you know i really think it's the many. who are trying to promote vehicles clean technology for sustainable world. the founder of a humanitarian organization that helps refugees in greece has given himself up to police he's been sought for the past three weeks for allegedly helping migrants illegally enter the country meanwhile of those already on trial there for similar

activities. since twenty fifteen the greek island of last boss has been a key gateway for migrants trying to reach the e.u. this month alone more than fifteen hundred migrants of arrived there now we can take the authorities months to process their asylum applications and a recent report by medical charity said the overcrowded conditions and leading to high levels of violence and even child suicides a greek independent m.e.p. we spoke to says the illicit activities of certain organizations are contributing to the problem in the country. various n.g.o.s actually facilitate the

illegal entrance of immigrants in greece and this is something that has to be stopped a big goes no we have at least twenty thousand illegal immigrants and refugees. islands if they acted illegally then it's sad to be gone but then the third is here to prosecute them there and serve them and geos which are under let's say the quote by nation with the with the european union and they have done a satisfactory job over but there are many out there in geos with acting on later on no they consume their money but they don't do it in favor of. refuges we know this because i am a member of the budget control committee of the european parliament we have made the visit liz was and we give. that the european funds i've not been used properly

i think it's time of the national authorities and from takes some measures and this measures is the enforcement of the low. ok that's the way it looks so father saturday your next well news from marty is off the bus. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this spearing dramatic development the only really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk.

it's become an international norm to say women's rights are human rights but in a world where women make up the majority of university graduates this may not be true how much more women's empowerment needs to happen before gender based policies become redundant.

this is boom bust broadcasting around the world and covering the world of business for you me the guy behind the tree all of us i'm bart chilton in washington thanks for being on board. coming up as a european union rejects the united kingdom's proffer on a brecht's that deal there is increased pressure upon british prime minister theresa may but what would be a good deal for the u.k. and how do they get there the clever and keen c.e.o. of straw mark henry ford which is standing by to help us sort it all out and it will be a busy weekend in business and one event involved the sale of sky titanic u.k. telecommunications firm steve malzberg joins us to discuss plus we take a deep dive into that investigation we told you about yesterday in the emma zone

and how they use a merchant data details of businesses on the amazon platform antitrust attorney barry barlow when archie correspondent peter all over joins us for the conversation and among some of the biggest business sectors is orange we take a look at sports branding in the u.s. and around the world and before we go the incredibly iconic volkswagen beetle the bug is once again being terminated archies rachel blevins considered the plastic car and it's dispiriting. tons of thing to get to let's go. to the organization for economic cooperation and development o.e.c.d. has issued a sober and serious warning about the risk of increasing global trade tensions as part of their biannual interim economic outlook o.e.c.d. also noted quote over the past few years the rate of global. roath has halved

relative to pre-crisis period and it declined further in recent quarters with the weak is concentrated in asia moreover trade frictions are increasing as a trump administration warns of a possible sanction against india over their purchase of a missile system from russia and anonymous a senior u.s. official cited the powers to act under the countering america's adversaries through thanks act but said the ultimate target of these sanctions is russia and president donald trump is now lashing out at the world's top postal policy body and seized on an apparent anomaly perhaps even an absurdity in the global postal rate setting system which is overseen by the universal postal union or the u.p.a. the u.p.a. you an agency of the united nations the issue is that you policies make it more expensive to mail get this items from the us to china than the other way around

late last month the administration sent a memo seeking to alter the policy but the u.p.c. has not demure and has deferred a decision to the next u.p.c. meet with doesn't take place until twenty twenty which seems to place the u.p.c. in the trump of ministration on a collision course. as we told you yesterday european union to floridians have opened an investigation into amazon related to how they have treated merchants selling on the amazon platform while the investigation is in its early stages we thought it deserved more attention and we do that now i'm pleased to be joined by our friend an antitrust attorney andre barlow and by r.t. correspondent peter oliver who joins us from the e.u. in berlin gentlemen welcome thanks for being here i'd like peter you to sort of step the stage and get out some of the issues that are going to be investigated.

ok well what's your opinion you know what the european commission is looking into in this preliminary stages where that amundsen abused its position as the e-commerce platform which was selling products from a third party that it's like let's put this in a simple example say i come up with a product let's call it all of this would. sell them through than amazon can then see exactly who's buying my product who's leaving comments on my product and they can essentially use that is market research to then roll out their own version of my product and sell it in some cases a cheaper price they're investigating it whether this is being done and if it is being done whether it's legal or not and it's really really not a great great summary peter and an amazon i mean you think about. it when you think about amazon being this huge monolith and and out there with all these advantages

many advantages i think some would probably construe as monopolistic and and now they are as peter said calling the data from people on their own platform i'm sure it's a condition of being on the platform they call this information from the merchants it appears and then use it for their own advantage what sort of antitrust issues might this raise in the. in europe and in the united states it's similar what you're really looking at is what is the relevant product market what is the business line that we're concerned about is it the amazon platform is it e-commerce in general if we're talking about e-commerce amazon has forty to forty five percent of the market right now and i think you know that will entail and now a sense of market share and discussions and information from the retailers to determine whether amazon actually has.
