i. the biggest find him u.s.c. history sees russians have beaten him a comedy or brit take his tie to my game style and on the mcgregor but the box ends in chaos on the last roll we were appalled at the moment. with angry protests on disruptions of the confirmation of votes where it's common law is sworn in as us to play in court justice playing bad deep divisions lost only within the senate but the whole country. confirmation is

a low moment for the senate. for the for. the country exceptionally qualified. and among the week's top stories the west takes out of russia's g.r.u. military intelligence service exposing an alleged campaign of global cyber a time. of very warm welcome you watching the weekly here on r.t. international with minichiello and great to have you with us. now russia is undefeated m.m.a. fight to have. defended his u.f.c. lightweight title beating ireland's quantum of gregor but the event was marred by a man sprawl at the end artie's sport correspondent. reports from the russian champs hometown.

absolute scenes in my house kind of ocean yet to see plunging in a little while this guy says can't be going to is still the champion of u.s.c. and these people are going absolutely bonkers right. but. it's important to know that most of these legal did not sleep tonight and they were waiting for the slice. it was pretty loud i have to say out in the street celebrating for many it has been not only a sleepless night but probably a sleepless week because the broadcast from last vegas started at five o'clock in the morning and many packed the cinema which was the main venue for broadcasting this event as early as two at three am in the morning.

when it comes to the fight itself it was absolutely incredible how calm and collected. i had of had been through that fight and he won absolutely deserve victory in the fourth round after a choke on qana mcgregor was the most anticipated fight probably in the u.f.c. twenty five year long history a lot of controversy before the fight a lot of control over c. after the fight apparently a scuffle between members of steam and mcgregor steam happened right after the bell right off claimed a clear and just a victory but interestingly enough he walked off the ring before even being able to raise the belt above he said as a clean deserve to win that speaks volumes about you know the heat and the control of the cia around that fight. layla's.

you know will they be toppled like chicken or do you think it will these. are minor part of what we're going to. i really believe. the most likely location location i'm going to come for you where you want doesn't matter that there are only three. miles. to get the money that sold it and pull the rug and she can get all the money you will need more than five hundred dollars more than maybe even you know for me

personally. the no one slept tonight but you can expect that nobody will sleep here even today the party is on right now just on yes. let yourself do the reporting from much in dagestan republic in the comedy have apologized afterwards saying he didn't show his best side by starting the brawl the incident is being investigated and could see disciplinary action with the possibility of the champion being stripped of his title mcgregor though didn't appear to hold a grudge che posted a tweet saying good knock looking forwards to their very much. earlier this week brett kavanaugh was sworn in as a u.s. supreme court justice by one of the narrowest of margins in the country's history but as hundreds of people protested on capitol hill his nomination after sexual

assault allegations against him senators who took the floor to state their feelings appeared to underline the divide in the country. when the history of the senate is written. this chapter will be a flashing warning light of what to avoid. judge kavanagh's confirmation is a low moment for the senate. for the for. the country. i just. don't see how we can put somebody on the supreme court. thinks that the president is above the law to various you should expect a nominee for how do. i do not believe judge kavanagh has met the standard he puts his tongue on the scales of justice in all ways where the pious towards corporate interests i knew him as an honest and dedicated public servant i

was proud to be in the white house as president of the nomination this exceptionally well with my. i do not see an open mind i do not see fairness i see a partisan ideologue who will do the traditional back flips to rule in favor of large corporations the powerful and the elite the perming fresh out of the supreme court before the road and undermine the court's legitimacy and continue to diminish the american people's trust in it. i thought. police arrested more than one hundred fifty demonstrators on the steps of the u.s. capitol in washington on saturday some protesters continue winning both of those seen by shots inside the senate's gallery and the chair u.s. vice president mike pence had to ask for over a dozen times. sergeant at arms will

restore order in the gallery. sergeant at arms will restore order in the gallery. the sergeant at arms will restore order in the gallery. will restore order in the gallery. and all that the displays have a cabinet has left the u.s. bitterly divided some have been finding a way to make the best of this. supreme court nominee britain have been on a great cabinet cavanagh judge cabinet dr christine lahti forty could use the cabin of sexually assaulting her when the two were both and.

i drank beer apart from almost everyone do i like you. i still like the. early this week russia found itself confronted of the alleged activities of its military intelligence service the g.r.u. a number of western countries and international organizations cold out moscow for waging a campaign of dirty cyber tricks auntie's daniel hawkins breaks down the details. election interference troll factories this information man hacking we've heard most

of it before but the latest charge sheet against russia is all encompassing and endless there were hundreds of victims targeted by these russian criminals if they flowers international law in this way russia's indiscriminate campaign of cyber attacks violations of several u.s. criminal laws they will be exposed russia must stop reckless and irresponsible behavior of russian government needs to know they want to fully condemn this attack it will be exposed and it will be consequences it seems every accusation of malign activity over the last four years from the downing of m.h. seven team to the water doping scandal has come back all at once united under a common name and symbol before it was often vague russian hackers agents or just putin but apparently we can now name the entity responsible for everything all along the g r u russian military intelligence even specific names and faces have

been linked with the alleged crimes seven individuals were indicted by the u.s. with four of them also accused the involvement in the netherlands o.p.c. w hack and three war already featured in robert mueller is continuing russia meddling probe. this group of just sixteen people is certainly kept busy according to the latest allegations how can the malaysia airlines probe the o.p.c. w.'s solsbury poising investigation and he don't get agencies from canada to brazil the u.s. election you name it the hand of the g.r.u. is never far away and according to some the allegations are irrefutable proof of russia's guilt in all other incidents here you have evidence of the russian military launching a cyber attack on the very organization the international organization in the netherlands set up to investigate those novacek attacks and why would you do that if you were the guilty party and as we've seen before there's no need to meet any

real standards of evidence remember when the n.s.a. was accused of spying on charts of the merkel back in twenty fifteen or the german federal prosecutor in the system a legal burden of proof to be met to prove this no such luxury what rushes in the dock they're almost certain and high confidence from u.k. security services are enough to beat the drum for new sanctions and anyway the soviet era k.g.b. is long gone the image of public enemy number one is long overdue for an overhaul and this is the perfect opportunity to consolidate the perfect storm chemical weapons got a lecture meddling it's got doping it's got every other thing you can think of that the russians are guilty of and i think this cloud of accusations is its own purpose even though normal rational people would say well why would they be saying these things unless they had some purpose and might i think it by throwing out individual

names for example this sort of concretized as if somehow it makes it look like there really is evidence behind how hard is it for western intelligence services to get the names and job descriptions of various officials in the g.r.u. or any other government agency so i think that's what they're doing but it makes it sound like there's something behind it we may not know the whole truth or which side is hiding something but it's image and narrative which is important and the russians you know you bogeyman is becoming firmly embedded in public mindset. and it's not just about alleged malign activities by russian secret services moscow's trolls have apparently now turned their sights on hollywood particularly the star wars franchise if you're trying to explain. hey america they stole your election hey britain they stole your dream of a united europe democracy will never be the same because of russian memes

thralls boughts well surely there is something still sacred in western culture off limits to the russians. oh no the kremlin folks even got their hands on star wars russian trolls weaponized style was criticism as an instrument for information warfare with the purpose of pushing for political change this was from a real study by a brave jet i call or i mean who claims there's been a force that was fighting to make the last jet i fail wow thirty seven pages remember how the movie got booed at when those need fans couldn't forgive the director for spoiler alert killing luke skywalker and forgive him for

going against all the tropes so dearly cherished by the fandom remember how the star wars lovers army even campaign to fund a remake well now you know who did it the sith sorry the russians had a great disturbance in the force as millions of doses suddenly cried out into the sun his sons to prove it the guy behind the research analyzed almost a thousand online messages for the director and his result was more than half of the hate tweets came from trolls some of them were russian. the director didn't just pay attention he shared the link to the study with his twitter followers. looking forward to reading it but what the top line describes is consistent with my experience online well some fans got even more disgruntled when they said they found their own tweets in the research it was

a bad movie highly unlikely that it was a dry run for bots to practice we hated this film too loved rogue one but were totally underwhelmed by the last gen dime so much so that my oldest questioned if it is worth going to the cinema to see any more disney star wars solo did nothing to make me change my mind or. remark a very disturbing it wasn't disney not even the director it was the damn room. all stories coming your way off that's very helpful.

i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter us has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime champions each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you want to be ultra rich eight point six percent markets thirty percent last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per circuit first chicken and one rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars a our industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only number you need to remember is what one does not show you can afford to miss the one and only.

unfortunately the united nations security council in his approach to yemen is going into this into the speech of employees it affords as many months or two months and then that is until tuesday when we examine the erroneous and i mean that i mean and to present it to the security council it would make these statements which are always that easy to do. when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murder i would prefer and it means to the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict is found innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people is terrifying news just newly to the present and that we hear even many of the times families want the

death penalty to be abolished the reason we have to keep the death penalty here is because that's what murder victims' families want to that's going to give them peace and it's going to give them justice and we come in saying. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way. us assign it playing to this idea of the u.s. dollar is our currency empire they've built over a post world war two era where everyone gets into debt and america and pays homage to america china russia iran africa good name and they're all saying now we want markopolos up even trump wants markopolos up we want to go for it we want to trade directly bilaterally we don't want to be part of the globalization that a lot. this

is gaza's current status it's one of the most overpopulated places on earth and on the brink of collapse. with troops forces in two thousand and four but still keep some news on that with air ground and sea blockades it's also under economic sanctions is often described as an open air prison. locals elected hamas as their leaders here they don't believe that israel should exist so naturally saw its regularly bomb each other israel tends to send a warning leaflets before strike but locals mostly state puts many countries classify hamas as a terrorist organization and the queues the most important people at risk. schools

a. little tough on the lamb. come from and i'm on the female of the lab the muslims to me and i guess i'll quote unquote. the word of the authority of. the saudi air force officer face to face a lot of false if you think of a good many years that in the battle of the bowl. for also. larry is that the let me name so israel has launched its biggest offensive against gaza in years the united nations is urging israel to hold successive force and the students for a national accuses that leading international law but this isn't the first time we tried to talk to the i.d.f. and they refused our requests for comics as their stance hasn't changed over the years but here's what their spokes person told me in twenty fourteen.

is the alternative to just let us terrorists continue their parents of aggression every two years they're carrying out to barrel and attack against israeli civilians and they cannot expect that this will go on.
