the only. seven pm right now here in moscow headlining this was a rowdy boos between turkey and saudi arabia over a distant journalist disappearance the u.s. gets called to the diplomatic crossfire regarding its response are you assuming that taking time to put out a statement means that the state department has not been doing anything of. the world chemical weapons watchdog gathers to discuss funding of a new power the o.p.c. been given there were allowed to determine guilty parties russia. illegitimate initiative. and from sons accused of allowing a toxic pesticides to be used on its caribbean territory of martinique island to

say paris should own up to poisoning their. point here would have smaller things feel this case to sites not trying to turn it on it was from here on the recent agency officials knew and no one the nurse of the population. of the world live from. moscow is kevin thanks for shooting to us for this thirty five minute bullets in the us so first developments regarding the dissident saudi journalist who went missing in turkey more than a week ago security video new in this but attained by turkish t.v. channel which shows. entering the saudi consulate in istanbul is not been seen since with the latest our senior correspondent. new details and accusations are emerging with the disappearance of a dissident journalist after he entered the saudi consulate in istanbul days ago we

saw c.c.t.v. footage apparently showing jamal the shuggie fierce critic of saudi arabia entering the consulate new footage released by turkish media shows a black vehicle with tinted windows entering the premises of the consulate shortly after and leaving just minutes later the predominant theory echoed by both turkish and foreign media is that he has either been kidnapped or murdered and that saudi arabia is using the confusion to shift blame the use anonymous social media accounts to blame turkey and imply that turkey is behind the disappearance of shogun they are trying to say we murdered him but we will put the blame on another country meaning turkey saudi arabia has since allowed both journalists and investigators into the consulate to show that jamal isn't there days after his disappearance although considering that all they really have to do is show him

leaving who's responsible for showing that this person made his way out of the building obviously the consulate responsible for that you have cameras there who should do so you have to prove that he left the premises why did you do that you should prove it the b.b.c. interviewed mr shrug just days before his disappearance and they asked him whether he would ever return to saudi arabia. of a list of a friend who did. committing the towards to be at least to make you feel that your little mr shoghi who has more than a million followers on twitter has been a strong critic of saudi arabia for what he says is censorship and human rights abuses and has recently been writing columns for the washington post. the paper said that it would be a monstrous and unfathomable additive he has been murdered and with this much attention in the case where about to find out more sooner rather than later. you

know state department officials say they've spoken to saudi arabia over the journalist's mysterious disappearance show good spent the past year in america increasing concern over the fifty nine year old's wealth has seen pressure mounts on washington for all sides including american journalist. it's nearly a week it's we first reports of his disappearance and that statement from secretary pompei oh are you assuming that taking time to put out a statement means that the state department has not been doing anything is that your assumption of what was the state department doing the state department was engaged at the highest levels and also at the working level and having conversations with saudi government officials and i'll leave it at that and so what was the reason behind that delay statement i wouldn't i wouldn't call it a delay why has not secretary pompei of said that if the reports are true and the saudis our allies turn out to be cold blooded killers that there will be

repercussions we're going to wait until the facts come out and we call again for a thorough and transparent investigation or be repercussion again let me say this one more time i'll leave it at that i don't have anything i don't have anything more for you on this today last time i'll say this i don't have anything more for you on this today i don't have anything more for you on that and when i do i would be happy to give it to you. the executive director of the ron paul peace institute told us donald trump these to tread carefully over his response here all risk alienating a key middle east partner. president is in a very delicate and precarious situation because on the one hand he's tied his mass to a degree to moderate and solomon to the crown prince of saudi arabia so he's going to go over there and he's going to start accusing them of murdering kushal ji then he's going to find his his middle east policy in a shambles so he's in a very delicate situation i think it really underscores the toxicity of the u.s. saudi relationships which we actually see being unraveled as was.

the headlines tonight covered his first arguments as a u.s. supreme court judge the bits in a sort of anger over his appointment of his opponents over his appointment remains as raw as ever caleb maupin takes a look at how he could have long lasting political repercussions after a great deal of controversy brett kavanaugh has been confirmed on to the u.s. supreme court is that justice now as if all that controversy weren't enough we now have donald trump throwing some fuel onto the fire on behalf of our nation i want to apologize. to bread and the entire kavanaugh family for the terrible pain and suffering you have been forced to endure that's after civility disappeared as certain elements just wanted to stop brett kavanaugh in the twitter verse things got particularly ugly a late show writer boasted about having ruined kavanagh's life whatever happens i'm

just cannot be ruined brett kavanaugh tonight and furthermore we got a google exactly i had to delete the following tweet you are finished g.o.p. you polish the final nail for your own coffin you all to hell it wasn't just on social media things got pretty nasty in real life with activists harassing senators and it turns out that some of them were actually on the clock getting paid while they did it. there were people who are paid by organizations like ultraviolet to to try to harness that energy in a way that would make the viral moments that we ended up seeing on the right wing the favorite buzz word was mob the mob descended on capitol hill they have encouraged mob rule mob rule the room of the mob conservatives utilize the chaos in the capital in order to rally the troops and raise money like after ted cruz got harassed in a restaurant by activists. be. relieved

they're not married. you gave it cruz's campaign says that the viral video boosted support and donations some experts are saying that this mob strategy is backfiring their tactics it's hoo haw they and so republicans and so you know if independents even more than the prospect of impeachment does we've used everywhere because it's effective. and other republicans who are running for office are following suit with finding swing votes is a turned off by how cavanagh was treated and we're responding now brett kavanaugh is confirmed he's on the supreme court that confrontation is over and it's starting to look like not only did the democrats lose but they alienated a lot of people in the process ok look him up and r.t. new york. well away from this the government has provoked strong reactions all round with play these celebrities weighing in to sharing their views with millions of social media followers and loyal firms and if

a trend could next of other than looks at how even a simple tweet these days of the stuff can stir things right up. today here to tell you about taylor swift no it's not that i switched to m.t.v. she's out there in the top political headlines because taylor basically just said she'd vote for the democrats. this is serious news and one taylor swift fan is disappointed. as. well haters are going to shake shake hate hate hate hate hate guys from the right wing cam are razor sharp now taylor swift is a traitor they're saying but just a little while ago people on the left were telling her off for being too politically lazy not only as the voice of miss with mighty enough to sway an army

of young voters you might well see her let's say out the united nations in a few years we've been there with some other celebs i'm not here as an expert we have failed the writing of. plays let us not fail to make and there's no turning back it will be more and more up to the likes of oscar or grammy winners to fix trouble around the world like issues with sudan we are here to ask it's a very simple he's with the government in khartoum to stop did we kill you. and children stop raping them and stuff. this is going on october the fifteenth is when the demilitarized zone is will start functioning but a day or two's difference will not matter the. quality of the work is much more important and we support them so it is very hard to verify independently that use

the information but we hear from several opposition groups including those inside the province and based outside syria and also from the turkish media that tang's rocker's missiles and multiple launch systems have already been removed from the buffer zone and it may sound like a very positive achievement but we also hear that several of radical extremist groups do not agree to participate in this initiative supported by the syrian government by the way and agreed between putin and their dog and so this is why we should talk about the success with a certain care the idea of the buffer zone around the province was to first of all avoid open military confrontation that many it greed would be bloody and devastating one province is still home to many civilians including children this is why it's very important to act very carefully regarding these large lost area

inside syria controlled by the n.t. government forces and this is why many believe that the fate of syria and where there we can talk about the end all continuation of the almost eight year long diverse state and conflict in the country depends on how things develop in the province right now. focus on the front charge of martinique in the caribbean so their health is at risk because of a toxic pesticide the chemical is banned or mainland front's itself but islanders say it's been allowed for use on their banana plantations for decades and they claim of course there is illnesses.

in the nine hundred seventy s. this compound was back in the in the usa the second year in this period plus started using it in martinique until ninety ninety four so the question is why. for years we have swallowed and inhaled these past decides not one yale to it was for years and the regional health agency officials knew and no one and not population this is very.

soon vic it's not possible to get an estimate of the number of patients who are victims of florida congo he would be the priority is to determine the number of farmers who were working in the banana plantations i don't know hundreds of many of them have died of prostate cancer many had premature babies why did they let french people sleep the sweet potatoes because they contaminated but they let us eat the same potatoes doing same period tomato when one is aware that a product is toxic and still use is assassination such as much of the french state is complicit in this assassination because they will slice. toxic. the steve must take its share of responsibility for this pollution must make progress on the path of projects i hope that collectively will put our efforts toward zero cortico in food that's the only thing that makes sense. we're not once

did they are in doubt here is that it is unfortunately irreversible. i expect the culprits to take responsibility and face the consequences. on the way though should the messenger is the message news agencies backpedaling off to sharing scientific research suggesting people could go green but haven't fewer kids say oh that's right after this break. descending into tribalism and cultural trench warfare highly contentious cavanagh supreme court nomination process has ignited a fire on both sides of the aisle interestingly and ironically the point where there is wide agreement is the recognition of the status quo. and sadly with no way

out. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. is over twenty trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you long for the ultra rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars ai industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember one one doesn't show you can't afford to miss the one and only. the global chemical weapons watchdog the o.p.c.

double who's currently holding talks on possible measures and funding that would allow it to apportion blame crucially during its investigations accounting that at the moment that of the russian delegation of the o.p.c. deputy that was slammed that idea in cold it a political tactic and this is a check and a reports. this is happening at a session of the o.p.c. w. where russia is in fact expressing very strong opposition to the idea of the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons being able to assign blame and point fingers outside of the usual scope that has existed until recently where they investigate the use of chemical weapons so this is something that russia says is in violation of international regulations specifically taking away the parag from the united nations security council which is essentially in charge of dealing and ruling on issues of war and peace here is some more detail from the russian envoy to the o.p.c. w. . we believe that the potential decision on the budget which according to the

secretary it's plan should increase by four million euros is illegitimate it's a direct outcome of the decision taken in june we believe our colleagues are planning to use the money for granting power to the. to identify the guilty and we believe that decision should be blocked. all of this comes at a time when we are seeing a sort of anti russia euphoria and a wave of believe being assigned against russia this has all come up this summer where the u.k. had the initiative to put forward this idea of allowing the o.p.c. w to assign blame as part of its work and we know that eighty two countries out of one hundred ninety three members of the o p c w had supported this idea where twenty four voted against it and twenty six abstained and the russian envoy to the o.p.c. w. also pointed out that according to him the script all attack accusations are

baseless he talks about how neither the o.p.c. w nor porton down were able to assign the origin of the novacek being talked about he said that he thinks there is no doubt that porton down has previously worked and continues to work with novacek type agents he's also denied any accusations made against russia just last week trying to blame it for attempting to carry out a cyber attack at the o p c w. produce agency if he is further so being targeted on twitter for publishing some swedish environmental research which suggests additional thing is quite obvious having one less child could reduce people's carbon footprints well that's for the scientists but it's generated to remove sarcastic angry tweets in response.

to. the news agency d'souza so from the research they were simply reporting the information of other people or parish or the thoughts about the study. i don't think we should stop having children just for the sake of the environment i think it's a rather moronic thing to say now that's a concern i think we on need to drive less other things which. i find this idea shocking. is a personal choice of will not allow anyone to come and tell me mr you have three kids that are too much you should have just one old nun a tool to save the planet is beyond the pale you can't just tell people hey stop making babies that's enough and those who sat that must have smoked weed or something it's not normal. what about our freedom what kind of country can

imagine its future a green future with no kids i mean we might as well all stop breathing and make a green panic once again but then there would be no more human beings of course this is shocking because i do think that they're great the french love their children they like children and in no way go with you because even seeing them that they have to reduce their carbon footprint or be more environmentally friendly if that means having less kids i think that's the worst argument that you can you can expose if you want to defend the identifying today why is the a.f.p. not talking about pollution in france by major french corporations those are real issues if you want to reduce pollution in france today french people are concerned by the environment but telling them all is said and that the solution to one of the ideas could be having less children are comparing major countries which are polluting with just fresh rallies having kids is i would resist really say preposterous this makes no sense and i should day he should be quite ashamed of what he did. always food for thought on this channel where r.t.

would question more thank you for watching. the way to the united states is dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. crossing the most just as they would a simple i want to take on most of enter and i want to ask some just about what if many of them look for refuge in the so-called sentry sides of the drift used to share information about undocumented migrants with federal authorities the best person to ask than call mom. was you know what i had a l.f.s. and i got a man on a quest and i want that. to happen they can't what are their options to stay in the country with donald trump in the white house all over forty gravels they also view what is the who could be bribed to do the job of the old affairs it struggles of

many couples won't. kill which have the fortitude impulse response those of you up of up to the fault of the. when lawmakers manufactured to sentenced him to the public will. when the ruling classes protect themselves. when the final merry go round lifts only one person told. to ignore middle of the room sick. room. one else so it's seemed wrong. why don't we all just don't hold. any world view. to shape out just to come out to it and in the game equals

betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. greetings and salutations. many times spiting for what is morally right in the face of institutional corruption can feel very much like a mouse fighting a guerrilla while standing alone in a field of official complacency for a small group of vigilant citizens in north carolina this is ben their true since first discovering their home states connection to the central intelligence agencies torture program and deciding to take a stand against it they formed the ten member north carolina commission of inquiry on torture because while presidents george w.

bush defended it barack obama moved on from it in our own congress sat on it this brave group of citizens appalled by what was being done in their name shows to investigate the cia's torture program and its connection to their home state and now unlike their own senator republican richard burr the chairman of the senate intelligence committee who still to this day refuses to fully release his own committing committee's findings on torture the north carolina citizens commission have released their in an eighty two page report titled torture flights north carolina's role in the cia rendition and torture program the report finds that local aeronautical company aero contractors transported at least forty nine individuals were forcibly seized without any due process in a manner that itself amounted to torture and cruel inhuman or degrading treatment preparation for rendition involved physical and sometimes even sexual assault drug and sensory deprivation rendition flights were experience of experiences of prolonged pain dread and terror when the officials we count on for justice continue

to fail us i think it's time we start fighting back like these citizens did for a little truth and accountability it's time we start watching the hawks. what would it. look like real with this one. as we get to the bottom of it. what they like you know i got. to be. well they're going to walk the walk so they're relevant and joining us today for this test the voice of the people going up against the cia is a former cia analyst and author of third john kerry thank you for joining us happy

to be here thanks for having john with this is interesting story the torture program clearly you know despite the hard work of whistleblowers like yourself and others you know it is still leaving a poison in our country and to this day in the case of these contract to you know planes that were being used in north carolina it's sparked a move.
