alternative for germany party look almost nailed on to into the bavarian parliament for the first time this year is out of touch with the citizens of bavaria and the lot of people from the c.s.u. based thing similar to the way we do in the a.f.d. so many former c.s.u. voters have come over to us the world is changing but our is changing but the c.s.u. reacts with the same ideas people want different answers the bavarian prime minister has been doing his best to distance himself and his party the refugees here how do you. do with the. things we just leave here since clearly. johnny has. not. c.v. . on sunday russian mixed martial arts fighter but not unlike a mouth off defended his title against irish superstar khana mcgregor however his

victory ended up being mobbed by scandal. one of the most eagerly anticipated contests in the ultimate fighting championship history congregants returned to the usa has been overshadowed by an ugly post fight brawl and ugly brawl broke out following the u.f.c. championship match in las vegas the post fibroid however did not stop thousands of habib's fans in his hometown in southern russia celebrating many said that the fight was about standing up for not about the matter of his country and religion which were mocked quite severely by mcgregor the fight started not only fans but also sporting heavyweights. memory versus team should be fun it's unimaginable never thought it would go down like this crazy or the my fight riots you know it's bad when mike tyson himself the guy that did his opponent's ear off expresses shock and it was

a free for all vengeful brutal star store room filled mosh pit where now calls did the talking and a great cliffhanger to set up for a rematch unfortunately it was also incredibly stupid it put people audience members in danger it was also entirely unnecessary i want to. pick up motion never other sort of. i know this is not my best side and this is not my best so you know i'm here mobeen he talked about my religion to talk about my country you talk about my father here's where we are now. jumped out of the cage first went for coolness coach who'd been goading him for that his pay has been suspended more penalties could be coming elimination even a number of his teammates who were also arrested for assault but released when

coolness corner refused to press charges. seems black and white had beebs guilty except thank goodness for phone cameras. kuhner was not so innocent either apparently diving into the melon himself throwing punches at members of habib's team he may have been the first to take a swing which would certainly put a twist on things and the press is picked up on that which would explain why donna white the head of the u.f.c. his tune down his criticism of bieber's corner initially he dressed down had bieber even refusing to give him his title belt bearing in mind that things could escalate but then now quiet a full investigation is underway and fans audience members have been asked to hand

over their videos of the commission can reconstruct this whole mess see just how culpable both sides are and fans of following the example set by their heroes. the and. they've been a number of reports and footage of rival fans juking it out with each other in the aftermath of this fight but then again what did they expect they both conan and had bieber their teams their fans they cultivated this rivalry this hatred to a level that's out of control but hey colin is offered a rematch now wouldn't that just sell. we talked to mixed martial arts

commentator robin black who says that it was part of mcgregor's game plan to go down. when mcgregor tries to go after people and use. words and ideas and say things that drive it elevate the temperature of the opponent he does it intentionally with the desire to make them emotional so that perhaps he can take advantage of that approach this is a byproduct of that because mcgregor is unafraid to go to the dark places you'll say things about family you'll say things about country that say things about about it even make reference to religion he's not afraid of or to do any of those things but once you open that box once you start open that box and you go into some of those those more emotionally triggering powerful things people react and this is an extension of that would be that temperature has raised and it popped. the syrian war has devastated many thousands of lives including many young ones the story of a thirteen year old cold front girl from a leper while tragic does happen to have

a happy ending. it was in the one and only. the monday program here on the high school marching bands performance in the u.s. state of mississippi has sparked anger as students in oxnard holding pollie sman at gun point a picture showed members of forest hills band dressed up as doctors and nurses and with toy guns the performance was delivered during a high school football game officials though have slammed the show as unacceptable . this is unacceptable in a civilized society someone should be held accountable. why would any high school marching band ever need fake guns had they been performing this routine all year

ali making a complaint to the mississippi high school activities association as well as the forest hill and g.p.s. administration how could any administrators think that have timeshare was appropriate last night forest hills band performed a halftime show at brookhaven high school depicting police officers being held at gun point absolutely disgusting all the incident happened to be rather sensitive for locals that it becomes just a less than a week after two brookhaven officers were shot dead in the line of duty the head of jackson public schools has issued an apology for the performance. the band's performance does not depict the values in people in our community and was incredibly insensitive to the students families law enforcement officials and the entire brookhaven community for this we sincerely apologize to all and we pledge to do better in the future. we spoke to former police officer dominic who believes

that children are being politically manipulated. these are becoming more commonplace lately and i think it's i think it's unfortunate the kids are the easiest ones a play off their emotions today's youth is an army for the suture to an actor in them with beliefs that just aren't accurate and we're forcing them were indoctrinated into being us soldiers into either conservative or liberal side and i think this is just false fed information and emotions that are pouring gasoline on emotions and letting them bomb while they're mashed nation's ports kids they're being brainwashed they're being set into false that's all the incentive you need poison the youth you make the us work for you i do want them to be more although carl bildt you know with these police protests or violence i'm really torn about the issue because i want to be fair to cross the board and just because i didn't like something doesn't mean that it's not ok. the controversial right wing

dubbed the donald trump of the tropics has won the first round of brazil's presidential election by a large margin however. failed to secure a fifty percent of the vote meaning there will be a second round his supporters have taken to the streets to protest what they claim as election fraud. the. very early. days it i feel pain and anguish because i know we didn't have a truly democratic election. if there is a second round i'll feel frustrated and one hundred percent sure that there was fraud going on the left wing kind of it from the former ruling party which has been

. plagued by corruption scandals came second with twenty nine percent versus balls on the toes forty six the two will go head to head at the end of october some of the noddles remarks on women and guns for example have provoked some backlash. but it wasn't for the. joy of the world it was. just going to. do very well you. both an argos rough and tumble remarks have exposed and deepened divisions in brazilian society head of the election there were numerous protests against his candidacy with thousands taking to the streets across the country. the yemeni army is now advancing on the outskirts of the crucial port of data which is being blockaded by who's the militants a saudi led coalition is supporting the advance with sudanese troops assisting on the ground now data is now the only way for those inside who control the western

government to receive humanitarian support including food however the saudi led coalition accuses the opposition of using the port to receive iranian weapons. but the war in yemen is now into its fourth year of the twenty two million people in the country have been displaced. sophie shevardnadze discussed recent developments in yemen with a former yemeni foreign minister you can watch it on our website but for now with a preview. the coalition is mounting an offensive on the only port left in who see hands dissociate press is writing that cutting through these off the ocean will mean famine death for millions why does the coalition resort to something so medieval as a food located in the side against. whereas you know why the blue case of oil has been unfortunately and successful. the actually have the impact on the water so the saudi let forces have. and accused by the u.n.

of causing enormous civilian suffering the united arab emirates state minister for foreign affairs sat that war isn't clean our operation isn't clean so i talked to emirates pollen and speaker and she told me that civilian deaths happen by mistake and that the coalition forces are trying to avoid them but then why are there so many what i think for sure i think it is collateral damage but at the same time i think they increase the number of these color to. make concern about the capabilities in the use of these a mass destruction weapons that are being who's in the water by both sides in the i'm and unfortunately i think what's needed nobody really is to. look at the. human rights council report to allies it and take the steps needed to see whoa when can. at least induce if you look if we cannot prevent more damage to the to the country and and more harm to

the people of yemen it is quickly turning into a busy monday if you worldwide headlines we are back in about twenty five minutes with much more. the u.s. is trying to cling to this idea of the us dollar reserve currency empire they've built over a post world war two era where everyone gets into debt to the america and pays homage to america china russia iran africa good name and they're all saying now we want markets close 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 anymore .

this is crude oil. soon they need to actually physically hold it out of the ground you would have well well. there's a lot of money with the oil and with that comes. a lot of a lot of people from all over the country. if you don't make a hundred thousand dollars a year. as a. british. here in the. they were told sixty dollars a day hard work for the workers not used to work and so they want to relieve their stress of how do they relieve the stress these men move back out like these men that comfort these many. people have been murdered up here people been raped there

are massive drug issues up here you have a boom you have everything else that comes along with money. with this manufactured and sentenced to public will. when the ruling closest project. with the flaming. lips and neither will. going all middle of the room six. million real need for. the way to the united states is dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. crossing their fingers to us that they would

a simple they want to be gotten lost and enter and i want to ask some just about but as many of them look for refuge in the so-called sentry sides of the refuse to share information about undocumented migrants with federal authorities how to best person asked bank of mom. mostly to point out. that best i get i'm in a lot of class and i want that. they have that water they all choose to stay in the country with donald trump in the white house all over for the gravels the both of you what is the hook to be about to be to. assess it struggles of any couples won't . kill a check up or to put impulse response both of you up as a popular hope of the. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. of the rich one trillion dollars in debt more than ten point zero or aren't happy each dish. eighty five percent of global wealth you longs to be old for rich eight

point six percent market saw thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and one rose to twenty thousand dollars . china's building two point one billion dollars a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one one does not show you can afford to miss the one and only. when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murder i would prefer it be in 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 lose just knowing the present and that we're even many victims' families want the death

penalty to be abolished the reason we have the death penalty here is because that's what murder victims' families what that's going to give them peace that's going to give them justice and we come in and say. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way. to. go welcome to sophie and co i'm sophie shevardnadze they were in yemen is getting more complicated by the day with an imminent humanitarian disaster looming over the

warring factions can anything be done or is it too late today i talked to former foreign minister of yemen dr abo backer of dual up out here being. the war in yemen is taking a new turn and believe me the strategic board of pardon me spread across a cell phone call in for protection of the country while the saudi led blockade is threatening yemen with full fledged famine any kind of solution be reached at this point is a military victory possible for any warring sides and what are the ways out of the current stalemate. dr abu bakar. b former foreign minister of yemen welcome to the show it's really great to have you with us now dr s. this situation in yemen wasn't complicated and now protests have now broken out in the south of the country where the south a transitional council supposedly backed by the united arab emirates calling for a popular uprising to restore independence of south yemen is yemen had it into

complete collapse. i hope no three i think the. situation is very serious indeed today eighteen by the day because no serious action has been taken by either the government of yemen or by the international community and sponsors of the peace in yemen and because of the loss of direction and loss of ability to and that is turned to the basics of all these conflicts and. the many layers and the conflicts and since the situation is deteriorating and will continue to do so yes unfortunately the issue of the diminished.
