incorrect maybe because it's always going to be people living in different universes. and the captain of the doing stories mission that had to be abandoned shortly after blastoff speaks exclusively to r.t. about his dramatic escape. when everything goes according to plan in the first stages detached there is always this kind of vibration and see on the video that's normal but after the first stage to attached we felt as vibrations continue and then immediately there was the emergency signal going off. fellow that was just gone four o'clock here in moscow you watching r.t. international passengers on a flight from london to turkey have stood up for a man who was being deported from britain the man was apparently shouting and crying resisting the deportation when that i passed and just decided to intervene however was artie's party boy who explains there is an ugly twist to the story.
9:02 am
take them off the plane exactly what they care most of what was taken most the plane this is the moment the passengers on a flight to istanbul stood up for a man being forcibly removed from the u.k. the home office was attempting to deport you could be ahmed back to his home country of somalia which he'd left when he was reportedly a young boy. was a little over the fire. but his screams alerted the other passengers on board to the fact that he was being made to leave the country against his will so fellow passengers leapt to his defense he says whatever it was it was forget exactly what it is you got it was short because you're my minutes later home office officials scored
9:03 am
off the plane and back to you kate jurisdiction. it's now been revealed the passengers helped to keep in the country is a convicted gang rapist in august two thousand and seven he brutally assaulted a sixteen year old girl along with three other men in a premeditated attack he was sentenced to nine years in prison and he was released after four one of his fellow gang members has since traveled to syria and died fighting with islamic state terrorists the passengers on the plane are unlikely to have known ahmed's dangerous criminal history the normal situation was never to seek out. the suit was going to lead to discovery that it was very little now thanks to their intervention you have had is thought to be back in a u.k. detention center while government officials tried to place him on another flight
9:04 am
his lawyers now have time to appeal to sit. to deport him the u.k. isn't alone when it comes to citizens disrupting government approved deportations earlier this year in sweden a student activist refused to take a seat on a plane until a failed asylum seeker who was being sent back to afghanistan was taken off the flight and she live streamed the entire incident golborne. so you are going to get killed it was later reported the man had been sentenced for assault the u.k. home office says that all foreign nationals who were sentenced for a crime and abuse the u.k.'s hospitality should be in no doubt of the government's determination to remove them but the government may not have banked on citizen activists being just as determined to let them stay. there we have asked the u.k. home office for a clarification regarding the identity of the suspect there earlier we spoke with
9:05 am
former chief executive of immigration advisory service keith best and he believes that cases like this should not be decided by the public but by the court. i think this example shows how wrong people can be although they may have sympathy for somebody particularly if they're being manhandled in a rather aggressive manner to get them on an aircraft in order to deport them i can understand where people sympathy might lie a bit of course as we've discovered with this case those sympathies may be very misplaced if they are foreigners want to use the airline for deportation cases then they have to do a balancing act between complying with the legal regulations or look at existing human rights safeguards and to make sure that they are fully articulated in favor of somebody who might otherwise be removed wrongly.
9:06 am
meanwhile there are other reports of a deportation is running into difficulty french police for example dropped off undocumented migrants in a forest without consent to acknowledging the wrongdoing. as part of a repeated ration of illegal immigrants mission french police cross the french italian border in the direction of club near italy without any authorization from the italian police. ok we can get more on the story now by crossing live to show it to be in species our europe correspondent paris at the moment charlotte what's been italy's reaction to all of this. well as you can imagine pretty fear is this idea that two french officers oversee that their authority went into italy and effectively dumped two undocumented migrants on italian ground before fleeing and there are many questions about did they knew that they were in italy well as some questions that you could raise about that did they not notice the
9:07 am
italian flag which often flies in the resort town of club here which this happened very need to arm those they were speeding back across the border into france did they not see this sign that welcome to back to france italy interior minister and materials so really is serious about this and he's gone as far as describing president michael of france as being an international embarrassment. abandoning migrants in the talian forest cannot be considered an error or an accident what happened is a number precedented offense against our country we are facing an international embarrassment to mr macro and cannot pretend otherwise we will not accept any apologies. well so far there hasn't been any official word from the palace that the office of president might go on here in france and the to a civilian he wants to hear from him but no official word so fall and this is not the first time that they have been tensions between the two countries over that
9:08 am
area just a few months ago rome actually summoned the french ambassador over an incident where two french customs officers actually went onto a tally and soil and actually try to apprehend the tolerance. it isn't who they tried to force to take a drug test far out of their jurisdiction and they have been other issues in regards to the migrant crisis and how italy is responding to it just a few weeks ago the interior minister actually said that he would be prepared to close down all of the airports in italy after it was announced that germany trying to put undocumented migrants back to italy it seems that wherever we go this issue of undocumented migration in this migration crisis is continuing these once neighboring countries apart and it doesn't look like the e.u. can do anything to bury the subject. ok thank you charlotte force in paris.

the u.s. news network n.b.c. is under fire after showing showing out of context remarks by president trump about the american civil war his comments made it seem like he was praising a pro-slavery confederate general and he corrected its report two days later because both in looks at how the us media is becoming ever more polarized in the liberal side of american media donald trump was in hot water they had him on video praising robert e. lee the pro-slavery confederate general during the us civil war they even had video evidence for their claim of obvious racism it also gave you. a general. who was incredible he drank a little bit too much. you know one draft of the. show robert e. lee was a great general. but it turns out that n.b.c. misrepresented the comment the general the trump called incredible was actually
9:10 am
ulysses s. grant the general of the union army now grant was anything but a racist in fact after he became president he even sent troops to fight the ku klux klan years after the civil war was over and b.c. had to run a retraction and show the full sound by a general. who was incredible he drank a little bit too much. and his name was green general gray. i am to drum faction smelled blood and went into overdrive they ran all kinds of headlines about trump praising the confederate general even said he was a big fan of general lee they even quoted distant descendants of lee denouncing the president and yet again our president is lying and showing us his true colors he is showing us that he supports an idol of white supremacy and hatred robert e. lee fought for the continued in slave of black bodies. but the pro trump crowd was
9:11 am
watching a completely different movie the news in right field was that trump was innocent victimized by scheming liberals so folks in the anti trump camp got confirmation that the donald is a racist meanwhile those in the pro trump bubble got confirmation that the liberal press is out to slander him and that's just one example of how americans seem to live almost in two different realities with loyal audiences getting sucked in by different narratives but i am better and i trying to decide if the temp of ministration is more sinister or more incompetent well let me relieve you of your burden. next time you can see that it's both incompetent and cynicism i think it's fair for black americans to say you know what i could consider the truth to judge the made in america make america great again so we're here in liberal new york city and we're going to see if average new yorkers have even heard some of the headlines that are all the rage among conservatives. did you hear about the controversy
9:12 am
regarding the the movie about the moon landing and donald trump didn't know it did not one controversy i haven't heard about you know i haven't. did you hear about trump praising robert e. lee. ever to leave yes i think i have yes i heard. do you feel like americans are divided and that like those who listen to protract media hear one side of the story and those who hear anti trump stuff hear another side part of your question i definitely feel like the country is divided by believe that some follow was follow incorrect maybe fake is. but i don't i'm not a term follower i believe the media i do feel like it's divided we have to be open to listening to different countries different different peoples interests as long as there is a divide between. ethnicities and cultures in no line of respect between these of
9:13 am
them there's always going to be a divide and there's always going to be people living in different universes to some donald trump is a heroic champion making american great again to others he's a power mad fascist inciting bigotry no matter what you think of donald trump it's pretty obvious that americans are more deeply polarized than ever before and warring media narratives are deepening that division caleb mopp and r.t. new york well donald trump has branded n.b.c.'s coverage is dishonest claiming that the channel deliberately made him look bad investment of journalist max roomful feels the news coverage is leaving people in the. point worth making about fox and m s n b c is that their formula is to cover a very narrow range of topics so if you watch these networks you probably aren't going to know much about what's happening outside of american horse race politics so no matter which network you're watching you are going to wind up less informed
9:14 am
unless you're completely concerned with the different policy intrigues going on in washington that's why a lot of americans are turning to alternative media as well as foreign media and why foreign media is under threat in the u.s. why this network for example has been forced to register as a foreign agent it's pretty apparent that the national security state in the u.s. doesn't want to americans to be particularly well informed about foreign policy and what's happening on the ground in yemen or in palestine or latin america. the captain of the of the space mission which had to make an emergency landing shortly after the blast off is spoken exclusively to r.t. about the dramatic escape alexi of chin and was forced to abort the mission along with his american colleague nick hey just minutes into the flight he gave a firsthand account of what happened to you goes you done for us that's
9:15 am
a couple of moments inside the capsule when you were shaking have believed that there was a disruption in the signal was that the exact moment when you realized something had gone wrong when everything goes according to plan when the first stage is to turn just there is always this kind of vibration that you can see on the video images that's normal but after the first stage detached we felt those vibrations continue and then immediately there was the emergency signal going off there was a tough test for you and your family right well my family members after having gone through the situation the next time it would be more difficult for them to let me go on such a spaceflight because obviously they've been good. affright but on the other hand they are confident in our equipment and what we're prepared for anything can happen but this is our job we can't stop what we've done we need to move on your mother met you at baikonur when you landed what was the first thing you told her what did she say to you i told her not to worry i said i was ok i said my health was in good shape i said look at me i'm walking and nothing is broken so don't be frightened
9:16 am
you know and after she saw me with her own eyes she calmed down so that's how it was for any cake it was his main flight you discuss it with him from a personal point of view nick did very well throughout on one thousand minute flight from lift off to landing he did very well yeah acted in a professional manner and i believe our crew works very well together and i would like to take my next flight with nick it will have been trained to endure the pressure of seven g. acceleration what does that feel like what can you compare that to the gravity forces can go in various directions usually you feel the pressure on your chest and your back you could compare it to a block of concrete put on your chest with seven g. it's a block seven times your weight if you weigh ninety kilograms it would be a weight seven times bigger lying on your chest. well it is an amazing story isn't it and you can watch that interview in full on i.e. . still to come this hour the mayor of a small french town is waging war on fast food giant mcdonald's but his anti big

9:19 am
well we actually published the nine page protocol with more on this story. sources close to jude innocence of told r.t. that the ecuadorian embassy impose a new protocol that covers the day to day aspects of mr sanders life inside the ecuadorian embassy in regulating it really they cover things like how his visits are managed and any visitors who wish to go and see the former editor of wiki leaks will have to make an official inquiry via email and also how he communicates with
9:20 am
the world we know that six months ago his internet access was cut off it will now be reestablished albeit part partially and also things like his medical treatment how he's treated medically that will be covered within the framework of that memo and also it prohibits him from doing or saying anything which is deemed as interfering in the internal affairs of other countries and of course six months ago when his into that access was caught it was a result of the various statements he was making with regard to the independence referendum in cuts alone and as a result of that of course having his internet access cut off they've now prohibited him from making any statements that are considered to be political meddling now in september mr sound was forced to resign as editor of wiki leaks he was replaced by a kristinn hrafnsson an investigative journalist from iceland and wiki leaks
9:21 am
releasing a statement saying that it was due to the extraordinary circumstances that he had been placed within the ecuadorian embassy which is why he had been made to stand down now of course it remains to be seen exactly how this sets of rules impacts mr sanders life inside the embassy and also remains to be seen exactly when he will finally be able to leave the embassy. now a canadian transgender athletes is facing a backlash at the moment after winning the cycling will championship mackinnon who was born male came first in the race in los angeles on sunday become the first ever transgender woman to win gold in the competition but it wasn't just applause that greeted her achievement. unfair advantage and not to be celebrated look at the difference in size and muscle mass of course you were going to win imagine being the woman who came forth knowing that you should have a place on the podium amazing i was so infused that reading this i went out and
9:22 am
challenged two eight year olds to a one hundred meter race guess what i only went and won first time running in an eight year old's race two. or h. mackinnon denies the accusations saying that she was forced to suppress her testosterone levels in accordance with the rules on transgender athletes we put the issue up for debate. what i find strange is the hue and cry being raised over transgender athletes but not over other athletes who clearly have certain advantages over fellow competitors i think the way in which transgender athletes are being singled out is very very unfair and wrong now of course we do need to look at whether transgender athletes do have an advantage which is unfair and gives them an advantage over others but i don't think the research really substantiate that at the moment the female athletes themselves fear feel that there are some
9:23 am
particular disadvantage in competing in somebody who's gender has been. in some cases changed you know there have been cases in the past so i mean the most celebrated. american tennis player really richards who was a man was a useful player. and then our underwent transgender. and competed as a woman and reached the following all of the double this of the u.s. open tennis championships you know one of the four grand slams one of the most important in the world as a singles player ended up growing at twentieth and this was at the age of forty four when she reached that level and you would look at that cage some say well would it really richards as a man ever been able to reach those sorts of heights as
9:24 am
a man and that is of course extremely doubtful there are all kinds of advantages that athletes have for sprinters having fast twitch muscle fibers definitely gives you an advantage it isn't just this issue it's a whole range of issues about where genetic and other bother factors may give a particular athlete the edge over. i certainly think there should be as far as trying to gender intersex situations. going further than that i think would be an enormous task. just quite god proportion hopefully there would be some kind of consensus and we could establish a regime for all sports where. sickly athletes who are transgender and intersex but also those who perhaps have other special unique physical attributes
9:25 am
or biological genetic got tributes they could be included. finally this hour the mayor of a small french town is waging war and mcdonald's which wants to open a branch there he's just lost his second legal case and now faces hefty fines although he's still to fight on. a divide. i. will make we were elected because he ran on a platform of ecological and social transition the model practiced by this kind of company grounds counter to that we do not endorse that model. with the goal of big big big big big. you.
