is mourning a loss of tragedy that they can scarce comprehend what's worse a tragedy apparently without cause or reason. they're going on to another of our stories this friday morning what is classed as hate speech for one social network appears to be the norm for another facebook has removed a controversial video of a preacher who. persian jews to termite's well said violates its rules but twitter refused to do the same saying the video is in line with its policies in the culture of a dove deeper into the story working out what twitter things as a ride so wrong is no easy task take the controversial american preacher a lawyer as far can he wrote this i'm not an anti semite i'm anti termite he wasn't clear enough he even added a video do you know what to do. and do semi stop.
2:09 am
do you turn. that marriage you. because you're so stupid and snog the first time his fat his feet with such comments but there is no policy violation for twitter which says a crackdown on dehumanizing language has not yet come into effect the company has been quick to pounce on others though reported the doing everything it can to stop the popular new mean showing liberals as an p.c.'s all that gaming term refer still non playable characters as and background character is preprogrammed to with a limited reactions. there's no need to get far. they're represented by
2:10 am
a grey faced generic character with a bland expression the character is meant to represent people who do not put themselves on a bill of have an internal monologue bearing many similarities to the terms basic and know me you can see why the and to liberal brigade a loves. what you're trying . twitter is out as not so can slap ing bans ole over the place hand. them
2:11 am
the scope of the banning as unclear but such is the means popularity twitter as struggling to keep up with just continue with this story a little bit longer because others twitter struggles with its definition of hate speech it seems that it's also feeling to keep its notorious russian trolls theory together has checked into a bit more. remember those big bad russian trolls you've heard about for what feels like years now who are alleged to have up and that the us presidential election the so-called troll factory a secretive technology firm that created and distributed both fake news and divisive stories and pose these were accounts that really looked like american citizens well and a bit for transparency twitter has published some nine million tweets from thousands of accounts they believe were run by stud trolls and if you like us find the data more than a bit difficult to interpret we're not conclusions have already been drawn by the digital forensic research lab twitter gave the group early access to the database
2:12 am
and they put out a four part report where they outlined the major takeaways and some may surprise you for example the russian internet research agency's main target was apparently in fact russian speakers a chart breaking down what language tweets were written and shows that for years those in russian vastly outweighed those an english rather interesting given how influential the fake accounts activity was meant to be among american voters there is no doubt the russians are trying to influence the presidential election russia's blatant interference in the united states twenty sixteen presidential elections the fact is russia meddled in our twenty sixteen elections right speaking of influence the positive conclusion of this is that the trolls were less effective than may have been feared many achieve little or no impact and their operations will be washed away in the final hours of twitter according to the group's analysis
2:13 am
the apparently ineffective russian operation had multiple goals including to prevent hillary clinton from winning the election that's something we've heard time and again and it's true that a good number of the tweets are anti hillary but those post didn't gain much traction whereas anti trump accounts such as these did the plus side to trump becoming more on the hinge but the people are finally realizing the. maybe having a treasonous madman secure predator supremacist in the white house maybe isn't such a good thing if you think that drill donald trump is the worst president america ever had he's not worthy to be called a human being according to the report such a liberal accounts engage other users and much higher numbers meaning the trolls were much more successful at getting people to bash trump the man they were meant to be getting to the white house and the trolls were also found to have pushed anti russian stance with they spread some content that was notably anti russian which highlights a key assessment of dissin from ation if successful in driving
2:14 am
a country further apart rather than closer together internally that country would be less able to enact anti russian policy those gift tweeting trolls are clearly so smart they even outsmarted themselves well the report warns that they descend from ation war will continue the spite the platform's best efforts on the troll farms lack of success professor of russian and european politics richard believes the evidence just doesn't support twitter's claims of interference like so much of output of the internet research agency in st petersburg it had nothing to do with the election two thirds of them came out after the election some supported some against him some for clinton though some against it and some of the russian language as well so it's a complete mix to bag and so you could say a lot of it is to do it with a kidnapping i mean it's not you know with twitter is different but basically like so many of these posts on social media it's all about advertising it's all about
2:15 am
raising profile so it's in my view a lot of this is making a mountain out of a molehill and it's as you say these midterms. are yet to get another big test of. of the american system at the same time. once again you're pitting this story of a. the interference in the elections so it's a whole new way wave of face with many accusations and very little substance obviously we're waiting for the report which will probably come out sometime early next year but the fact that he didn't come out before the midterms when if they had something genuine luzhin genuine proof substance to other than his accusations then i would have suggested they would have come out before the midterms. nearly half of u.s. soldiers believe their country is likely to be drawn into a major conflict within the next year according to
2:16 am
a new poll and they're wasting no time in maintaining their combat readiness. alright forty six percent of service personnel believe such a conflict is some or very likely that's nine times higher compared to the previous year. if last year it was north korea that top the chart in this poll this time around servicemen name cyber terrorism russia and beijing now as the greatest dangers facing the united states former pentagon official michael maloof told us he national threats are widely misunderstood we have
2:17 am
a looming confrontation growing and so the troops may be right but i think it's probably in the wrong area i don't think it's going to be either china or russia that they should be concerned about it should be about doing something against iran and i think this latest case with jamal khashoggi cyber terrorism as such. even against troops in the field is a very realistic concern especially when you consider the extent to which the u.s. military today relies on technology to look at the f. thirty five i mean if if an e.m.p. went off and and they and they were able to successfully to freeze all electronic components of that aircraft it would be useless and it's a ninety million dollar airplane per copy the united states going the u.n. ambassador has apparently admitted she had no idea what the united nations did before
2:18 am
taking up the post details of a leak conversation of a merge then we'll tell you about it after the break. the grim reaper of the bond market has appeared with this with this guy and he's looking at the global bond market he's got all. this obama apocalypse it's a tsunami that paper and it's. going to be the greatest line as a collapse ever loved. in a world of big partisan. 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 smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back and shouting
2:19 am
past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. nineteen minutes past nine pm here in moscow welcome back remarks by big united states are going u.n. ambassador to a number of conservatives over the weekend up being leaked nikki haley claimed she was initially offered the post office secretary of state by president trump but turned donna she didn't feel qualified and she felt it seems pretty much the same about her position of the u.s. . i thought the job should go to someone who didn't have the same learning curve i
2:20 am
thought drawn honestly i don't even know what the end. well nikki haley is due to leave her role as a u.n. envoy in january investigative journalist much blumenthal was out the closed door meeting where he was speaking. she revealed that her learning curve was too steep to be secretary of state something we all knew because she had just been governor of south carolina before and had a foreign policy experience limited to having lunch at the international house of pancakes maybe she was playing to the crowd but i think you know in a setting like that where she thinks that there is no media present doesn't know that there is a journalist there i think her comments should be taken very seriously and received as her most candid some of her most candid remarks to date. donald trump obviously was not basing his decision to ask nikki haley to be u.n.
2:21 am
ambassador on her experience but more on her profile he wanted to diversify his cabinet have an up and coming female republican who was a minority she's of indian descent probably people within the pro israel lobby who are pushing trump's transition team to appoint her so that they could make sure that the u.s. would represent israel's interests at the u.n. and that's exactly what happened. nikki haley during the meeting with the council for national policy boasted of how tough the trumpet ministration was on russia. boasted that the trumpet ministration had expelled over one hundred diplomats that the trumpet ministration had imposed harsh sanctions that it wrecked russia's economy and she boasted of arms sales to the ukrainian military and she
2:22 am
said the obama administration can't even hold a candle to us on russia and this earned her lots of applause. ok to a developing story now r.t. has obtained video from a proposed a militarized zone in provinces in syria the last terrorist on rebel stronghold in the country the government and say defense lines remain in tact and the implementation of the new zone is set to go ahead turkish forces we know are currently trying to push militant forces back i'm correct is allied with a group called the national front for liberation whose fighters you can see in these latest pictures we have received our video agency spoke to one of it's a month. and i want some of it is the individual with regard to demilitarize in the buffer zone as a defense lines remain intact no soldiers are in position but they have light weaponry on the front line backed up by heavy weapons in the rear so they're able to deter any attacks on the buffer zone agreement is being maintained smoothly
2:23 am
without complications you know that agreement being spoken about was reached by moscow in mid september it establishes a fifteen to twenty kilometers zone into libya under the agreement heavy weaponry to be polled out of the area russian and turkish military as well but for a litter free president putin commented on russia's operation in syria earlier. the goals that we heard the beginning of the operation in syria so many years. before there were countries taking part in operations fighting against terrorism and what was the result zero we liberated ninety five percent of the syrian republic ensuring sovereignty them so if you still haven't carried out the planned operation in a deliberate i want to say thank you to our turkish partners we see that they are working. in a bid to protect british values the u.k. home secretary has launched the review into hate crime legislation he wants to
2:24 am
expand the law to protect more vulnerable sections of society but as polly pocket reports not everyone is happy with the idea. at the moment police in england wales and northern ireland annually monitor five main strands of hate crime that aggression towards someone on the basis of either their disability best sexual orientation that gender identity their race or their religion but the u.k. foreign secretary sajid javid gets his way then that definition of what constitutes a hate crime will be broadened to include things like ages him and miss or jimmy the problem is that talk of expanding a law isn't particularly popular with those that will have to enforce the potential new laws the police u.k. forces a struggling to maintain an effective service battling steep budget cuts and an
2:25 am
unprecedented wave of violent crime so should the police be dealing with things like wolf whistling and ages them we want to see what london this thing i think you'd rather than focus on burglaries on facebook i say focus on the area of try and cut down the crime it's obviously the police to decide how they spend their resources i mean i would like to see more police on the beat on the street but but doesn't seem to be very hard for the moment. being pulled away from what i think most poor gold is bread and butter issues of policing going after criminals most goes towards large growth to go after. the so-called crossroads which more pleasantry into vigils before which is already an existing. legal remedy under the criminal law the government says it's determined to tackle hate crime because it directly challenges british values but convincing already struggling
2:26 am
frontline officers to expand what they have to police is going to be tough before metropolitan police officer roger grey thinks there are. many more pressing problems that you care thora he should be tackling this is not really helping the situation in the country when we've got a knife crime is increasing by ten percent along with other violent crimes this is where our resources should go and stop dealing with peripheral peripheral and politically correct questions and dealing with the the basics of what mike's ass sayf get out sounds or their hopes we shouldn't have a situation where we are encouraging a culture of allegation you must build our police officer to to exercise the law that's what he's there for he is no to the greater extent a social worker he sees political correctness again going too far. all right we're back politicking with the want to only larry king in just
2:27 am
a moment today's main topic of debate because shuggie disappearance in istanbul people here on twenty four hour are actually international. when lawmakers manufacture consent in student of public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the financial merry go round of lives only the one percent. of the time we can all middle of the room six. million real need. for. prosecution only to become almost. a full on design. where you question the threat of
2:28 am
fines. by the number one place you do i mean yeah i mean i mean political pressure on the god you've. told to security jennifer knows where to put your hand on that business models he was my american corporations doubtless wasn't completely sold on couldn't matilda's it as an m.p. use the controls key a man who was on the scene and the solution. in association with. newton he saw swindle as it is just simply plays of deleting data and investigative documentary. ghost war on r.t. . is donald trump providing cover for the saudi government over a missing journalist we'll take a look at that on this edition. of
2:29 am
the politicking on larry king the trump that administration said this week that it's not providing cover for the saudi government over the stereoscope clearance of generals jawad to shogi many people around the world however do not believe that's the whole truth so what happens now with the investigation into the disappearance and how the trumpet administration response to it going forward let's start then with our political panel there holes in areas diminuendo the former deputy national press secretary of the democratic party and c.e.o. of the noun strategies consulting firm he's in. just the now co-host of the p.b.s. show in principle and a former staffer to senate majority leader bill frist who gay jose we'll start with you the administration says it is not providing cover for the saudi government over
2:30 am
this mess what do you make of it. well look we have to remember that the president it's a businessman and i think it's looking at the bottom line and the fact of the matter is that anything any possible things that he does with with the saudis you know it could affect. their bottom line and it can affect them it can affect the country economically and i'm referring to to selling weapons to society arabia so now you know whether it's a cover up or not it's hard to tell at this point but what he should have done though it instead of trying to throw excuses on twitter he should have said the united states is going to get involved in this investigation we're going to get to the bottom of this and i know they said they're going to wait until the saudis finish their internal investigation but i don't think that's it i think we should move now we should move quickly amy. well in fact we are moving now the president he dispatched his. dispatch mike pompei o to saudi arabia immediately to meet with the saudi royals.
