one of the typical fortunate for being in the workforce with him because he performs just. one can only follow for a little of the office politics from the social to lead ins. in a bid to protect british values the u.k. home secretary's launched a review into hate crime legislation he wants to expand the law to protect vulnerable sections of society but as police boy the reports next not everyone thinks the idea is a good one. at the moment police in england wales and northern ireland annually mourners have five main strands of hate crime that aggression towards someone on the basis of either their disability best sexual orientation the gender identity
7:10 am
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 them and. 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 and effective service battling steep budget cuts and an unprecedented wave of violent crime that's the reason the government's law review has prompted criticism from one high profile police officer who's standing up to the idea of saying that though it's noble it's not needed and it'll make it even harder to police what he calls genuine crimes the first priority of any government is the protection of the people let us focus urgently on genuine crime supported by
7:11 am
basic evidence let's not encourage people to think we can solve deep social problems or give employment people manners so should the police be dealing with things like wolf whistling and ages them we want to see what london this thing and i think you'd rather than focus on burglaries on facebook i say focus on trying to 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 that doesn't seem to be a very high priority the moment. being pulled away from what i think most poor goal is bread and butter issues of policing going after criminals most those folks like to go after. so called cross which might be your pleasantry into vigils before which is already an existing. legal remedy under the criminal law i've been called
7:12 am
a coconut and worse so i know how important it is to stamp out hate crime the government says it's determined to tackle hate crime because it directly challenges british values that convincing already struggling frontline officers to expand what they have to police is going to be tough. the time seems was 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 compose jews to termites because it violates his rules but twitter has refused to do the same saying the video is in line with his policies of a delve deeper into that story. working out what torture things as a ride so wrong is no easy task take that controversial american preacher a lawyer can he wrote of this i'm not an anti semite an anti termite he wasn't clear enough he even added a video you know what to do. and do semi stop brooding.
7:13 am
turn him i am not murdered you. because you're so stupid and snotty 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 average thing 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 an background character is preprogrammed to with a limited reactions. but. there's no need to get far.
7:14 am
they're represented by a grey faced generic character with a bland expression the character is meant to represent people who do not think for themselves on a bill of having in the internal monologue bearing many similarities to the terms basic and know me you can see why the and to liberal brigade a loves them. the truth drugs. twitter is out as not so cancel out being bans all over the place hand. them
7:15 am
the scope of the banning as unclear but such as that means popularity twitter as struggling to keep up. u.s. soldiers believe the country's likely to be drawn into a major conflict within the next year according to a new poll out and they wasted no time in maintaining that combat readiness that. my. c.v. forty six percent of service personnel believe that such a conflict is somewhat or very likely that's right nine times higher compared to the previous year you may be interested to know now if last year it was north korea that tops the chart in the poll this year it's different you can bet your bottom dollar and you know the names to this time around servicemen name cyber terrorism
7:16 am
russia and china as the greatest dangers facing the united states right now former pentagon official michael maloof told us key national threats in fact though are widely misunderstood. we have a looming a 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 trump 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 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
7:17 am
a ninety million dollar airplane per copy it without international thanks for your company today coming up a man considered britain's most dangerous radical preacher has been freed from prison we'll take you through some of the reaction to that seconds away. 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. this obama apocalypse it's a tsunami that paper and it's. going to be the greatest collapse ever. you know world of big. lot and conspiracies it's time.
7:18 am
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. 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 we're watching closely watching the hawks. again in the tourist radical preacher described as britain's most dangerous extremist has been released from prison after serving half of his sentence and some choudhry was jailed back in twenty sixteen for encouraging support for islamic
7:19 am
state let's get the view from london like a heck of a lot of concern over the trees release and the potential ramifications of the next year. well indeed kevin this notorious radical preacher anjem choudary has indeed been released. having served half the time of his five and a half year sentence that he was meant to be spending behind bars he was put in jail back in twenty sixteen for encouraging people to join isis but the british prime minister to resign me says the authorities are well prepared for this development. on the question of anjem choudary obviously he's an extremist he pledged his allegiance to he was convicted of influencing support for them and if and when any tourist offend is released well rehearsed plans are put in place to keep the public safe and the police the prison the probation service and all the rage and says have a range of powers available to them they also have significant experience in
7:20 am
dealing with such offenders and this includes the setting of strict license conditions such as restrictions on movement and international stringent curfews the breach of which could result in immediate recall to prison. well the fifty fifty one year old father of five who once led an extremist group that was a band under terrorists terrorist laws in the u.k. is going to be serving the rest of his time in the community on license as it's described which essentially means he will be monitored by the m i five the police and other agencies he will not be free and will have to follow what's being described as a list of compliance is that if he were to violate he might potentially go back to jail and those just as we've heard includes things like new preaching or going to certain mosques no interaction with people outside of those that were approved by officials he would allowed to he would be allowed to have only one phone although
7:21 am
that's not clear how that's not enough to be able to communicate with whoever is desired his internet access would be supervised and he also has some kind of travel . sounds in terms of being able to move around london but also he's not going to be able to leave the u.k. and reportedly the cost of what's being described as a huge security operation following his released reports here in the u.k. are suggesting that amount is going to be as much as two million pounds a year compared to what's also reportedly described as fifty thousand pounds that he would have cost the taxpayer while he was still behind bars and of course reactions to those revelations were very swift to follow. it's crazy to put the public in danger and spend two million pounds a year monitoring extremist anjem choudary we could be following australia's lead to keep him locked up the extensive list of constraints on un jim chartres welcome
7:22 am
that said the fact that he's being released at all and that's imposing these constraints will cost the taxpayer two million pounds per annum is a bore and those argue mother wise are almost as dangerous as here's the release of anjem choudary who claims some of those citizens are foreigners in their own home is a threat to our security his betraying all of us and we need to defend all communities in our nation we need a new treason act. well indeed this could be seen as quite a concerning development this man did not actually organize any terrorist attacks himself but nonetheless he is known as one of the most infamous radicalized there is in this country you know who is the controversial figure in london thanks for the update. this is new in the united states has to close its consulate in jerusalem which deals with palestinian ties and merge it with the new embassy in the city that was controversially moved from tel aviv earlier this year back in may
7:23 am
but the city leaders are condemning the move they say it will further fuel an already bitter divide. this does not create. any facts. the dismantling of a two state solution pushing palestinians and israelis deeper and deeper in the back of conflict and violence and counter-violence and we are totally and i strongly condemn what the strongest possible terms terms this american decision where his part the u.s. secretary of state insists that the merger is aimed at improving efficiency and that's all and doesn't signal a change in american policy in the region israel's welcoming the united states decision saying the move puts an end to american support for the division of the contested city let's go live to tell of a little complete americans that put some perspective on this one for us a there what ramifications repercussions might this have on the face of it it's simply inefficiency drive by the. us
7:24 am
gov of course it's only a fusion see and effectiveness and some bureaucratic infighting come on let's be serious the united states could have subordinate to the consular general in jerusalem to tel aviv embassy decades ago if it wanted to didn't because of the substance as well as the symbolism the jerusalem consulate general reflect the two facts one is the. under the united states or not the nations resolution of one hundred forty seven jerusalem was to be a separate entity unless and until the parties to the conflict decide otherwise they happen to know the second fact was that defacto it was the embassy to the west bank detail of even embassy to care of gaza which is closer to tel aviv but the jerusalem embassy to care of the palestinians not the settlers not the jewish
7:25 am
settlers but the posting rooms in the west bank now there is a process. embassador to israel david friedman who is a close personally to president drum and who is apparently the bureaucratic infighting and managed to get the consul general donald blome ousted or demoted and while officially as you quoted secretary. there is nothing their actions indicate otherwise so this was always going to be fuel on the fire that as far as the palestinians a concern. yes of course because you know if you look at the official statement nothing has changed the united states has never recognized the israeli annex ation of west jerusalem or of the golan heights for that matter occupied from syria and the west bank is supposed to be only an occupied territory
7:26 am
temporarily under israeli control until there is a peace settlement but in fact one cannot see palestinian leaders now coming to jerusalem to be certain to be an embassy to israel even though the unit dealing with them is going to be separate the one indication that there is chaos in the trumpet ministration even regarding jerusalem is in the monday in fact that the d.m. the daily expense that an american diplomat can get is different in jerusalem then it is in israel which means that drew slim is still a separate entity from israel but politically what this move means is that americans are abandoning the palestinians. secretary of state in the us president trump was committed to last
7:27 am
a comprehensive peace between israel the palestinians. moving everything to this embassy is not going to help surely is it. well you know the russian formula of last year had to do with recognizing west jerusalem as israel's capital but also east jerusalem as the future capital of the future palestinian state the results are an indication that won't be australian prime minister scott morrison said a week ago in his conversation with prime minister netanyahu is the longest similar line yes we are considering moving our embassy from tel aviv to west jerusalem but in the future a similar move would have to do with the palestinians but the americans up to now have all the indicated that they are for an israeli west jerusalem leaving the question of palestine and east jerusalem open just picking up on what you say about
7:28 am
the australian prime minister what he said they would he go through with it you think in the current climate well he said it in the heat of a political campaign where every seat counts and where he's a former ambassador to tel aviv came up with this idea of moving the embassy once the elections are over wants a new cabinet is formed the reason time to reconsider he did not commit himself he only raised the idea because he believed that there are jewish and other pro israeli supporters who would like it implicit commentator tell of effects for a given issue of thoughts about this like you. it said twenty eight houses past two that's why he's looking so far this friday always so much more free of course at all to dot com than i was kevin about should have a great day off the break the one the only. one out international. is donald trump providing cover for the saudi government over
7:29 am
a missing journalist we'll take a look at that on this edition. of politicking on larry king the trumpet administration said this week that it's not providing cover for the saudi government over the stereos this appearance 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 there is dimon you know the former deputy national press secretary of the democratic party and c.e.o. of the noun strategies consulting firm he's that. is the now co-host of the p.b.s.
7:30 am
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 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.
