just a little. stories this hour here on oxy rocket man. kim with north korea the focus of the latest security council meeting we look at how in the space of just a year the white house went from fallon to destroy the country. i recall saying that the boy who assaulted me could someday be on the u.s.

supreme court wifey and mine. have been totally destroyed emotional scenes in the u.s. senate as opposed to supreme court nominee brett kavanaugh and the woman who accuses him of attempted to give testimony. also. germany on his first official visit to president of the one the two countries need to put their problems behind them in the face of growing economic pressure from washington. and a friend under investigation for inciting racial hatred calling white people to be high he claims it was an attempt to turn the tables on the black people here in the program we debate whether artistic freedom can go too far. the guy said i want to. make an excuse for that if you. change. good however

the same term could have come down by. moments after eight o'clock in the morning here in moscow and this friday is quickly turning into a big day for worldwide headlines welcome to the program north korea was at the heart of the latest u.n. security council meeting washington's top diplomat mike pompei o praised the progress made in relations between the two countries just a year since president vowed to totally destroy the reclusive state past diplomatic attempts to hold north korea's nuclear ballistic missile development were unsuccessful. but now we're at the dawn of a new day so twelve months ago washington and pyongyang seem to be standing on the brink of war so will this new day mention by secretary pompei o lost in the upper

trunk are reports from new york it's only been a year and then boom donald trump's second u.n. general assembly just listen to it i would like to thank chairman kim for his courage and for the steps he has taken a lot of very positive things are happening with chairman kim he likes me i like him we get along but most importantly i believe that chairman kim jong un wants peace and prosperity for north korea twelve months ago same building same holds same mr trump no one has shown more contempt for other nations and for the wellbeing of their own people then the depraved regime in north korea know north korea hasn't undergone any regime change surgery chairman kim is still in his chair but miraculously little rocket man is now an awesome guy rocket man shooting rockets all over the place and with me he's not get their way with he will

truly regret it five years as a fury the likes of which nobody seen before totally destroy north korea rocket men mad men is on a suicide mission for himself that is there it's a state that while today. is the president's most admired pen pal i'm sure you've heard about the beautiful letter to have received two letters from jim and kim much personal correspondence magnificent very strong letter form incredible letters letters page one i showed one of the letters just. to prime minister a b. he said this is actually a groundbreaking letter that like. any other president donald trump would love to be remembered as a true global peacemaker it took him a year and a half from his inauguration to zero in on his desired legacy

a true breakthrough in the korean crisis barak obama was having a hard time segmenting his place in history books but then the year when nuclear deal came to the rescue and the mission find your perfect legacy was complete after nearly two years of intensive negotiations backed by strong sanctions the countries represented in this room achieved what decades of animosity and rhetoric did not and thanks to this deal we have seen real progress shortly after mr obama was gone the deal was left in tatters no matter how monumental it had been in the first place the worst sales i've ever seen in a good disaster is still one of the dumbest e-mails one of the worst deals ever it was the iran deal i'm all for agreements but that was a bad one donald trump waved good bye to the green minutes he quit unilaterally without paying attention to pretty much what the rest of the world has to say about

it today's action sends a critical message the united states no longer makes empty threats when i make promises i keep that donald trump may indeed keep all his promises as president but it does happen that rivals sometimes take over the white house after term one what if and a couple of years someone else will be representing the u.s. behind these new one general assembly walls in new york a million to train them we spoke to eric cirrhotic and co-founder of the lawyers for a demilitarization piece in korea he believes that despite washington's efforts to strengthen relations prospect of any peace treaty with the north is no closer. it is hard to judge whether their statements match reality however just meeting by

dialoguing and talking is progress and i think it needs to be acknowledged and praised that they are doing math however have we moved any closer towards the idea of a peace treaty and we moved any closer towards finding a way to lloyd the nuclear buildup on the peninsula i'm not sure that through the efforts of washington that we have i think we have to the efforts of president moon and south korea and what they're doing but i don't think at this point in time we can say progress has been made because they should be entering the peace treaty ending the korean war as a prerequisite to toss. in what proved to be an emotionally charged headline grabbing hearing both donald trump supreme court nominee and the woman who accuses him of attempted rape testified before the senate judiciary committee brett

kavanaugh strongly denies all accusations and senators from both the republican and democratic parties have been accusing each other of political bias when it came to investigating the sexual assault claims. republican scheduled a hearing without talking to her or even inviting her to testify republicans also scheduled this hearing with dr ford without having her allegations investigated by the f.b.i. if you wanted an f.b.i. investigation you could come to us what you want to do is destroy this guy's life hold this seat open and hope you win it twenty twenty you said that not me the assault stayed with her for forty three years the entire country is watching how we handle these allegations i hope they're. people can see through the sham that you know about it and you help it you had no intention of protecting dr for following

the hearing president doubled down on his support for his pick for the supreme court he called calvin all the testimony powerful in the queues democrats of obstruction calling on the senate to vote for the nominee also uses some air con reports on what common oil and his accuser had to say international issues like iran d.p. r. k. and actual wars like syria and yemen have taken a back seat and capitals hearings have been a dominating the news cycle for a couple of weeks now and we witnessed a series of twists and turns over the past month or so and all of america is tuned in to find out if cavanaugh did or did not sexually assault christine ford over thirty six years ago but all the suspense and media hype surrounding the case is making it seem more like a soap opera than serious news but kavanagh was questioned for hours and what did we find out well here's ford i recall saying that the boy who assaulted me could

someday be on the u.s. supreme court and here today not because i want to be am terrified my family and i have been the target of constant harassment and threats believe that if i came forward my single voice would be drowned out by a of chorus of powerful supporters during the hearing cavanagh even got a little bit emotional he even discussed how these hearings have affected his life my family and my name have been totally and permanently destroyed i intend no we'll we'll see dr ford and her family the other night actually and my daughter lies assert their prayers and little lies all of ten years old. should there actually we should pray for the woman. it's a lot of wisdom from a ten year old. we mean we know we're well.

this is a circus but it looks like the only thing that's clear from all of this is that both of their lives have been turned upside down well in this incredibly polarized climate of americans chose a side long before either of them spoke i respect this man and believe him we must put an end to the democrats' witch hunt god bless this man for refusing to back down from the democratic elite who try to destroy his life i stand with judge cavanagh who is with me. on a strategy played the victim meanwhile the actual victim conducted herself with out most dignity and unwavering bravery dr ford is a patriot in the survivor the fact that this hearing is playing more like a trial is devastating she is not on trial kevin though is her testimony has read as credible reliable and compelling in fact it would be super difficult to find

anyone whose minds were changed after listening to the testimony and we won't find out how they're going to vote until friday so as of now there seems to be a motion over substance. the president of the one is in germany on his first formal state visit it comes amid growing economic pressure from washington on both germany and turkey over the one that said at times like the. need to put their problems aside as peter all of us now reports from but to president. germany with the extending of all of the branches the building of bridges and the turning over of new pages in the relationship between concrete and live in front and center. it is our responsibility to rationally move our relations forward on the basis of our shared interests quite apart from irrational fears peter while since he was here twenty fourteen was the last time i was in germany on

official business and in that time. have there been some exchanges between the two nations. i can see turkey being admitted to the european union i have never been able to see it happening. a germany you have no relation whatsoever to democracy and you should know that your current actions and no different to those of the nazi period. president to go on your jeopardize and everything that you others have built and the unspeakable mare's of comparisons and not cut ties to those who want a partnership with turkey. i'm calling on all my countrymen in germany the christian democrats the s.t.p. and the green party are all enemies of turkey support those political parties who are not enemies of turkey so you see this more than just a few indiscretions to be over kill me the chancellor and the president of to be chums again if we go back to the attempted coup in turkey in twenty sixteen happy

suspects accused of taking part not to be granted asylum in germany while germany's on happy german citizens are in jail in turkey accused of taking part there if we also look at elections then turkey's unhappy you know the one particular on a happy. turkish rallies weren't allowed to be held in german states while germany which was hosting elections in the same year they were angry the president deemed it necessary to give tips to turkish germans on how they should vote in the german general election. the relationship between germany and turkey is in a real low right now if only there was someone they could unite. against.

in particular is keen to have mrs merkel as an ally in the face of trumps trade war the current unilateral and reckless approach of the us government is dragging our world further into merciless economic war which harms every player both mr and mrs merkel have ongoing economic shenanigans with donald trump the us president has slapped a massive tariffs on the import of turkish steel in our minium while german companies find themselves in a peculiar position over trump sanctions against iran also on top of that berlin is being pressured by washington over germany's involvement in the north stream to gas pipeline project with russia policy. during these countries freshly iran and turkey on one side and europe on the others and closer together in the economic terry of the sanctions against iran iran is

a big economic partner for turkey and. another big. turmoil and trying to reach out to our sites to get support while building bridges is the order of the day there is one area where mr may have to concentrate germany has just be in turkey to the right to host the twenty twenty four european football championships but of course that will probably pale into insignificance when there is a trade war waging trump to unite against people of a. french author or authors of lawton airbrush the goshen against a black rapper for inciting violence and racial hatred that's after he posted a video showing a white man being. shot and hanged from a tree and called for white babies to be killed and you tube has suspended the clip called the whites and the rabbi himself met conrad to claim he was simply turning the tables on the suffering black people have endured for years however outrage at

the video reached all the way to the top i condemn unreservedly these abject remarks an ignominious attacks might call excel working to immediately withdraw this constant from broadcasts it will be up to judicial authorities to take approved route for the action against these odious calls to hate. well we put the issue of whether need to be limits to artistic expression up for debate but come demo violence they saw violent lyrics but we're going to be careful here not to get too carried away if you listen to the reports and read the reports this guy only had forty people downloaded his music before this controversy is clearly he's after the publish city he's probably going to get so on the net he didn't want which is a lot of negative publicity or maybe even a criminal record we can't have him calling for white people to be hung just largely couldn't have white people calling for black people to be young could weigh

all violence in this way is to pretty deep lord of course but let's put it in perspective there are literally hundreds of thousands if not millions of hits on you tube videos from. the hard right rock bands fire up the organs is one particular way discoursed occur is another which are getting millions of his time all for the rule of law replying but he seems to be massively disproportionate when there is no general trend in the french black community or elsewhere for this sort of thing and the one time here example people have descended on it in fronds. seem to have blown it way out of proportion although you exaggerate anyway anyway you've got enough ally that you'll be exaggerating now you have to agree in any way but undoubtedly these i am i exaggerate to mean there is a problem there is a problem. i am using in general i am drill music i am

a sinner that's one hundred black kids at the moment lee along in the more true your have been lying in a mortuary we should condemn all violence like this all violent lyrics like this he's talking about stabbing caves in a nursery white kids and hanging their parents i'm sorry last out. of order in my book for those who wish to rely on the facts of the matter is copious amounts of research online about the extent of the multi-million pound industry that underpins the racist white supremacist rock network and. i didn't deny that i did have a poll i didn't. let see what the guy said the guy said i wanted to reverse polarity and show what it's like for black people for hundreds of years to be victims to these things even rick recreated a scene out of american excess and notable cult. film on white nationalism in

america that's what his artistic rationale was sounds credible to me whether he meant it or not who knows only he can tell but i do know this seems to be have big disproportionate difference with the way he's been treated to the way that the rest of the offenders on you tube but be treated no one's trying to make an excuse for that if he has used a c.n.n. change the priority of a good however but by the same token i have condemned both just like i started off on this program today con damning anyone who is promoting the idea to kill somebody else just because of the color of their skin i would condemn them if they would just do it as a general thing i just did in twenty past the hour here in moscow plenty of stories still to come here your way on the program a new mosque has been opened in hamburg in a building that used to be a protestant church just some of the locals not too sure about it that's in the mix a few stores just.

join me every day. i'm show business. is this you need to be the first one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest read. truth to stand this is just the right questions to the right answer.

us president donald trump took center stage at the united nations this week the middle east was very much on his mind particularly iran for some sitting in the general assembly trumps words were simply laughable however what is happening in the middle east and beyond is anything but fun. today the editor of the new york review of books claims he was pressured to leave the prestigious magazine for giving a platform a perspective from the wrong side of the me too movement. publish an essay written by a former canadian radio host who was acquitted of sexual assault charges where he reflects on life after the accusations and more than one hundred prominent writers and contributors to the magazine have spoken out against the forced resignation calling it. we find this very troubling that the public reaction to a single it's

a quote repel and some of us may have phoned the zealots who should have been the occasion a few improvements forced resignation caleb maupin looks at how one decision to publish an essay can simply cost you your job. the new york review of books is a staple of american intellectual culture was actually hailed as the premier literary intellectual magazine of the english language by esquire and lauded by the new york times it has prided itself in posing questions that americans debates about life and culture since the one nine hundred sixty s. but in the era of me to that attempted debate has fallen flat in bruma never himself accused of sexual misconduct decides to give voice to someone who has been accused and he gets fired. my interest in running this piece is a sit is the point of view of somebody who has been pilloried in public opinion

somebody feels about it it was not run as a piece to exonerate him or to somehow mitigate the nature of his behavior the article that got the room of fired was written by asian ghomeshi is a canadian radio host whose career was destroyed when he was accused of sexual assault back in two thousand and sixteen now all the charges against him and twenty sixteen were dismissed in court due to lack of evidence however since then twenty different women have come forward and accused him now those accusations have not yet gone to court but jian ghomeshi never got his job back there are a lot of guys more hated than me now but i was the guy everyone hated first during the first two weeks i was suicidal i contemplated the methods by which i could kill myself i was terrified of being weak and terrified of falling asleep after the article was published there was a firestorm both in the media and on the internet pretty soon bruno was no longer the. editor now the new york review of books even one as far as to publish an

apology for what they thought was a poor editorial decision while mr ghomeshi has an absolute free speech right to express his opinions with knowledge how famous in the presentation and editing of his story now the writer of the article was indeed accused of sexual harassment but the editor in bruno wasn't he simply made the decision to publish the article. i have absolutely no doubt that the me too movement is a necessary corrective on male behavior but like all well intentioned doing good things that can be undesirable consequences now there's no question that need to is giving victims a voice that is much needed but getting people fired for giving a voice to people whose guilt has not yet been proven is that what me too is supposed to bring about caleb mopp and r t new york criminal defense attorney emily companion says the media is that to give more voices on

a subject not fewer. there is a backlash effect occurring within journalism these days which essentially it's the professional death sentence upon a mistake like that and the duty of the media the duty of this of this paper was to provide information it's to give an outlet to all of those voices in general journalists and editors i believe have a heightened sense of duty to not only act as stewards of the me to movement but that includes publishing and giving weight and light to all voices and all opinions along the spectrum so i do believe it's incumbent upon those participating in that industry to offer more voices to be heard rather than less to give more of an opportunity to be heard rather than editing and that need to movement and importantly there is a big sense of public opinion occurring where an allegation means a conviction. a new mosque has been opened in humbugging

a building that used to be a protestant charge during the renovation that took five years a lot speaking said about multiculturalism and integration but many locals there have mixed feelings about it. it's a pity my three children receive confirmation in this church and know it is a mosque but what can you do. it's going to church for a mosque they really made it beautiful. of course it is

a different culture and. sure but there are also so many parallels and therefore we have to be reasonable and stance and give them that it's not one i just have to foster i have a strange feeling a little bit frightened when i'm in the bus for example and i see a crowd of people coming from the mosque it is a frightening feeling because you feel a stranger you shall see. is a place of the integration and learning. and i don't think you can say that he joined many of the christian automatically nowadays who. any you will see to. have plenty more stories had to come on international it will be a busy friday for your world wide news to see you in about twenty five years.

we are through our earlier. through early or through her. the whole thing you know we need to go back to and by force that's self-sufficient that's also the position of the god that's the mission to the self because in any case even if there is a number of things and so they've got to go back one day to the to this country

safe. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of the global wealth you longs to be ultra rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred trades per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only number you need to remember is one in one business show you can't afford to miss the one and only boom bust.
