3:04 pm
people are reported dead more than seventy injured and from the perspective of the students it was truly a horrifying experience. even as you know those that have all those not. only was the father would be growing. my love was lovely i know you are nobody's even thought. oh i do see your little good you really believe. psychologists are now working with survivors rescuers as well sifting through the college looking for more bombs there were reports that he had planted more there are reports of several explosions
3:05 pm
instead of one but it was really horrifying the terrible tragedy in kutch today the government himself this was nothing suppose spontaneous he had planned the entire affair making the bombs go into all that effort it couldn't have been simple he got the gun legally from what we understand he applied for a license just a month ago and he got it the shotgun along with one hundred fifty rounds of ammunition that doesn't seem to have been a pattern will anything such that just seemed a random killing he targeted everyone he came across his father is now being questioned by police he has been arrested though no charges have been level jet police of reka reclassified this from a terrorist attack which was suspected earlier in the day to a multiple homicide and we're still hearing more from witnesses from that he said
3:06 pm
he's been to the five or ten minutes after i left someone broken all the window glass was shattered after the whole explosion and someone was running about was shot a gun store or something opened all the class doors and killed everyone inside i could have been dead now all my coworkers were shot down children died my colleagues our dad he was you know the injured children and college stuff or transferred by public transport and ambulance i heard a blast and shooting a so people are lying with its hands and legs about thirty people coached. i was working not far from here and ran straight to this place everyone hoped. i live the first building of the college and went to the second i opened the door and heard an explosion then the shooting started everyone started screaming there was panic everywhere i don't know what happened after that we ran then my friend and i tried to help but we weren't allowed three days of mourning have been declared and
3:07 pm
condolences coming in from all over russia from abroad as well the investigation of course continues it's important not to jump to any conclusions that was a lot of conflicting information coming in during the early hours i'm sure the more important details that are going to come up going to emerge in the coming hours but for now we are on our way to the city itself traumatizes. and hopefully we'll find out more as to what happened. the alleged attacker is believed to be a student of the college aged eighteen he was found dead in the building after apparently killing himself with a gun similarities have been drawn to another infamous atrocity that was carried out almost twenty years ago within a cochon of a has the story. two words that come to mind after wednesday tragic events copycat attack the scenario of the school massacre in the crimean city of courage as old but our carbon kopi off another school shooting that took place in
3:08 pm
the u.s. nineteen years ago columbine became perhaps an inspiration to a young shooter from crimea the similarities are chilling one of the columbine shooters and the crimean gunman are all of the same age only eighteen years olds they were even dressed in similar black and white and they acted as if from the same playbook explosives placed in the canteen a serious of gunshots suicides in the school library the difference there were two shooters in the columbine attack and they killed thirteen students the crimean gunman was acting alone but somehow he managed to kill evan more but what's even more disturbing he wasn't the first one to draw his inspiration from the columbine pair earlier this year two students attempted to carry out a similar attack and the city of perm they too were marched evasiveness by the
3:09 pm
american massacre the question is how many more will follow the gruesome example. of history now to. a professor of psychology of the state university of new york at new polls thanks for joining us. and what we've heard about the alleged assailants does the profile fit what we've seen you know the violent school incidents. you know unfortunately absolutely. there are several demographic features which
3:10 pm
are very typical his kinds of situations he's a young young man there's even a phrase that psychologists use which is young male syndrome which essentially means that there's simply being a young man in a given society is a risk factor for all kinds of adverse social and emotional outcomes here as you mentioned those students teenage is we know very very well that do you know their emotional though can have lots of grievances at that time in their lives that's fairly normal i would say what is likely the time in the life of to tip them over the edge. well you know there are many different factors we used to phrase multi-factorial cause a shame when we talk about some kind of behavioral outcome such as this. there's a very good you know you certainly could be afflicted with a pariah to your mental health. disorders and it's very common for adolescents
3:11 pm
across the. afflicted with anxiety to be afflicted with autism spectrum kinds of this order to pression is common and there's seems to be evidence that these things seem to be on the rise over the last several years i think that any number of these disorders let alone more serious substantial disorders such as bipolar disorder and schizophrenia certainly seem seem feasible as well there certainly could have been several adverse outcomes and in his social world he may have he may have had death in the family he may have had break ups he may have been bullied he may have been socially eleni it is you know we know from columbine and we know from the study of psychology more generally that all these things can lead various adverse logical outcomes that can be
3:12 pm
manifest in a variety of of negative cons of ways obviously with this being extremely. extremely unpleasant and conspicuous example of when things go really wrong you mentioned the glen columbine and it does appear looking at the details of this attack that it may very well have been a copycat. attack on the other students why do we end up talking about columbine so often is it because it got so much attention and it draws people to try and imitate it because it because it is so well known. yeah i mean i think so you know unfortunately living in the united states nowadays there's you know we can think about orlando we can think about las vegas we can think about parkland florida so i will say that. back columbine for very long time columbine kind of stood
3:13 pm
alone that kind of was at the time an almost somewhat isolated incident and the perpetrators of that made it is spectacular as possible i mean it was like they were choreographing theater the way that they designed it you know and i was just talking to a guy i was in high school. when that happened and he still has a very visceral memory of details so you know i think that columbine was not designed for a lot of purposes but it was partly designed to stay in people's minds it was partly designed to be just as as disturbing as possible in every single way so as to leave that kind of markham. learned about it and i think that's partly why this guy was copying the tools clinton. and some of the trigger points that can tip the trouble teen over the edge in previous examples. is it
3:14 pm
a case that people around family friends could should have noticed could something have been done to help them before it happened or is it just impossible to spot you know i was so clear emotional pain and distinguish them from somebody money going to do something horrific. yeah i mean that's a really important question and in this broader conversation you know whenever something like this happens in america we use the phrase. monday morning quarterback which means you know sure you can look back and you see all the signs the signs are all there certainly with the perpetrator and parkland people are talking about all kinds of signs that were there complaints that have been made that were not responded to that has fallen upon death death years and so forth my guess is there's going to from what i know about this killer already there seems to be a lot of people that were concerned about about this guy or radek behavior from the
3:15 pm
get go you know one thing that we talk about a lot in our nation with lawyers. because these things are so hard to predict even by the most expert mental health practitioners in behavioral scientists it's probably a good idea to look at the role that access to guns as a weapon as well because that certainly interacts you know when you have someone to go crazy and you have someone who has access to. weapons at the same time that right there is a formula that really can be quite destructive. then i really appreciate your time thanks for coming on to even listen to the in science of glen guy who's professor of psychology at the state university of new york at new people thanks so much fun . thank you very much neal. vigils in memory of the victims of the college attack have been held across russia in moscow people have been laying flowers and lighting candles at the war memorial to the city of in the alexander gardens of the walls of
3:16 pm
the kremlin while president vladimir putin who is hosting his egyptian counterpart in the black sea resort of sochi opened that meeting with a statement on the atrocity. that you would it is so well used when you want to express my deepest condolences to the relatives of those who have been killed i hope that all the victims will recall vote as soon as possible we will do everything we can to help them we already know this is a crime and we are looking deeply into the motives and versions of. it all the results of the investigation will be made public dear friend see a memory of all the victims let's honor them with the minutes side but should you buy me lunch. or. rest assured we will be keeping across any further developments following today's attack in crimea we will bring you any updates as they come in.
3:17 pm
in today's other news the u.s. secretary of state has wrapped up a trip to turkey where he discussed the investigation into missing genista mark i should might bump previous that was saudi arabia which has been accused of killing the man in its own consulate in istanbul riyadh gave assurances the pump that it would fully cooperate in the probe. it made a commitment to. anyone connected to any wrongdoing that may be found accountable for that whether they are secure office or visual they promised accountability for each of those persons whom they determine as a result of their investigation so it just serves accountability. for the country the country. is a few years. old. so we
3:18 pm
should. the saudi side again strongly denied any knowledge of what happened to the shoji yesterday a nine hour search operation was conducted at the consulate in istanbul access was finally granted fifteen days after the journalist was last seen following the search turkey's president said investigators were looking at the possibility that there may have been attempt to hide evidence by repainting the walls cases attention intense global media scrutiny. president trump is criticizing the condemnation of saudi arabia over the case of missing journalist jamal khashoggi president's stunning statement as three sources tell c.n.n. that a high ranking officer with the saudi intelligence agency oversaw the saudis are now claiming was an interrogation of us shook the he want into a building in never came out of the building what are we talking about in the building was saudi if because shogi is dead said republican senator marco rubio
3:19 pm
today the u.s. must respond or it risks its own standing. meanwhile politicians and media personalities say that the saudis does have condemnation for much more than just the khashoggi case how do you think president trump should respond if it's proven that the saudis were behind his disappearance if not murder one of the strong things that we could do is not only stop military sales not only put sanctions on saudi arabia but most importantly get out of this terrible terrible war in yemen led by the saudis. why have our lawmakers in the media turned a blind eye to the atrocities committed against yemen every day by the u.s. and saudi arabia. sunday an air raid minibuses in the key yemeni port of killing at least fifteen civilians and injuring twenty according to the u.n. who fighters accuse the saudi led coalition of carrying out the attack as it is recently become the most violent frontline in the three year long war in the
3:20 pm
country so the government said that it would investigate reports of civilian deaths because see advisor on yemen soused believes the sale of weapons to the warring parties is only making the crisis worse. the numbers are very hard to grapple with thirteen million people on the brink of famine is one that should be compared to the entire population of countries where almost a million people. are. going to hear many. parents don't know when they send their children to school whether to come home or whether the bombs will hit the school almost every aspect of it very nice home going to affected by the. actors if you want to have. some children recently with open wounds on their legs that they can afford to treat me in honoring either for. their own eighty percent of the population this is
3:21 pm
a crisis that is entirely manmade and could have been avoided and could indeed be avoided if we saw some serious action from the parties to the conflict and the allies in the saudi led coalition including the u.s. the u.k. france germany and others. overall the u.n. claims that the situation in yemen is catastrophic warming up to thirty million people are facing starvation if the war doesn't end soon now that figure represents almost half the entire yemeni population the u.n. said that we could see the worst farming in one hundred years with other aid agencies also raising their a lot. in the huge amount of duplicity from powerful countries countries like the u.k. in the us are consistently throwing money at the problem of the humanitarian crisis in yemen helping us reach people with food and water but meanwhile they're profiting from the sale of weapons that are perpetuating the war it seems to me
3:22 pm
that there are political interests at play that are overriding the in trysts. yemeni people so our question to those powers is are jobs in the us in the u.k. more valuable than lives in yemen. so to germany now where a kindergarten has courted controversy for promoting itself as being a nursery with quote hardly any migrants the daycare center claims that its message has been misunderstood that's attracted criticism for other promotional initiatives to the senate explains. when hunting for a daycare center for your children what tops your list great teaching good can i start mr well how about hardly any migrants one can say garten in the wealthy town of hamburg promoted just that leaving some parents mortified in a promotional brochure they highlighted the following. of the families with a migrant background only a few take care they've since deleted the sentence was deleted one sentence that
3:23 pm
accurately describes the fact that there are only a few families with a migration background the kindergarten few families does not mean families at the kindergarten also insisted it stands for inclusion and is equally a pinch of children of german origin and families with a migration background but that's not the kindergartens only statements that true criticism it adds to the financial situation of parents living in the kindergartens area is excellent a large number of parents pursue self-employed activity such as lawyers doctors organizational consultants brokers business owners. the backlash was quick to follow. yeah enough money you can do is much stay decadent until you have them let the stupid playboys mingle with you these are the nazis in the guise of clean pure democrats and brits should lead in mosques itself with an immigrant free daycare
3:24 pm
center in the villa neighborhood a socially leitz we decided to see what germans think about the issue as a mother i would never accept it i mean you should and you could use other ways to attract people is so wrong thing to do because if you don't know each other you can't work and live together you can only understand each other when you grow up together from the earliest moment people will have international meet people from all of that involved so i think it's. really really important already young people get to know your different cultures different ways of living and so on although parents favor a multicultural society when it comes to words on the children they start bringing attention to the proportion of native nationals in the schools and so forth so there might be discrepancy between what they say or do our daughter was in the kindergarten for spanish germans and so there were
3:25 pm
a lot of nations latino nations and germans together and they spoke spanish and german in the kindergarten so she learned both languages thinking about everyone wants the best for their children whether the best means having known my current classmates and whether schools should be bragging about this issue is another matter altogether. azzi belin. let's take you through the key points of all major breaking news story this evening a gun and bomb attack on a college in crimea has left nineteen people dead and more than seventy others injured all of the victims are from the local area russia's investigative committee reclassify the incident from a terrorist attack. to murder three days of mourning have been declared in the region the explosion occurred in the college canteen the device was packed with metal objects investigators are studying the c.c.t.v. footage witnesses reported seeing the suspect carrying a rifle is how events unfolded.
3:26 pm
it literally the last one when you want one. of the. rest of us to yell no we had said it's come out ever just to see i mean i've shared a list even thank you prostate yes considering if we talking or more of same to zoom but it was inches of water in it was it it means that we were to start a book trust acquit are going to hurt them and also. maybe only good morning there's so much an issue and it's now. what we do but the work we've got to give you can actually grow. up in unity.
3:27 pm
eventually the doctor but some of the energy what i should like what you have a palestinian i think he didn't ask you for that you have again matthew chance marquis i read about it but you know of them. regarding you you. see if he i knew most it doesn't mean that i'm use of money and never actually even if. my ship is out no but meanwhile large number carlia when you look at it over. the course of that i mean i would have been really jokey chasing about. staying with r.t. international the saving of the bat with updates on our top stories and half an hour.
3:28 pm
you know world's big partisan duty. and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the past and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely for watching the hawks.
3:29 pm
hello and welcome to cross talk we're all things considered i'm peter lavelle after repeated denials the saudis are now expected to change their story on the fate of jamal khashoggi see the victim of abduction and torture that went too far donald trump house expressed concern but little more some are saying riyadh could get away with murder. cross talking a saudi crisis i'm joined by my guest charmaine on the in beirut she is a journalist as well as a middle east geo political expert in turan we have mohammad marandi he's a professor at the university of tran and in washington we have ali ahmed he is the
3:30 pm
founder and director of the institute of gulf affairs are at cross talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate mohamed let me go to you first and to around with a hypothetical let's say there's a hypothetical dissident against the iranian government living abroad and goes to a rainy and consulate and never comes out what kind of news story with that i'd be what would their reaction be because living in russia i can tell you russia gets accused of things and sanctions are done before we could even finish a program here so what would your reaction to my hypothetical situation be go ahead moment. well it's obvious the we would be probably discussing the un security council meeting that would be taking place to condemn iran or perhaps almost any other country in the world when it comes to saudi arabia the double standards are.
