2:20 pm
this year palestinian leaders are condemning the news saying it prefers the fuel an already bitter divide. this does not create the. facts rather than dismantling the two state solution other than pushing palestinians and israelis deeper and deeper in the back of conflict and violence and counter-violence and we are totally and strongly condemn what the strongest possible terms terms this american decision. the u.s. secretary of state insists that monitors aimed at improving efficiency and does not signal a change in american policy in the region now american relations with the west bank and gaza will be handled by a palestinian affairs unit that will report to the u.s. ambassador to israel. israel is welcoming the me saying it puts an end to american support for the division of the contested city political commentator things the

consulate closure further complicates israel palestine relations the jerusalem consulate general reflect the true facts. under the united states the united nations resolution of miking forty seven jerusalem was to be a separate entity unless and until the parties to the conflict decide otherwise which they happened to know the second fact was de facto it was the embassy to the west bank tel aviv. gaza which is closer to tel aviv but be jerusalem embassy of the palestinians not the settlers not to do so but the police in the west bank now the. process ambassador to israel david friedman. close personally to president and who is apparently the bureaucratic infighting and managed to get the consul general donald

ousted or demoted and officially as you quote the secretary. there is nothing their actions indicate otherwise but this move means is that the americans are abandoning. donald trump says his secretary of state has not been provided with any evidence concerning the disappearance of the society journalist. vanished into it this month after reports that turkish authorities claim to have or to of jamal khashoggi being tortured and killed in the santa consulate in istanbul with no information being made public from the investigations into trying to looks at the case that's being sidelined when normally it would cause a political storm. a quick look at the calendar back here was when jamal khashoggi was last seen alive days passed and holding that was the
2:23 pm
point when the u.s. president had this response to the question is mr who. generally looks that way to me it's very sad certainly but we're waiting for the results. about reading it for diversification so we should be able to get to the bottom fairly soon but i have to be very severe i've read it. but we'll see what. here we are that rather obvious one for many took sixteen days even though a crystal ball wasn't exactly needed to know something atrocious had likely happened to the journalist but what exactly he calls for arab nations to allow freedom of the press freedom for which he apparently died fighting a turkish official tells c.n.n. that his body was cut into pieces after his death whether the alleged killers dismembered body here and spread it around the country plenty of t.v.
2:24 pm
attention and speculation zero public comments from this man for two and a half weeks just for your information jeff bezos own the newspaper mr hashad you wrote for the washington post believe it or not he's had nothing to say on the probable death of his employee for now maybe he just didn't want to there's been a suspicious silence from a number of important people who you'd usually expect to. or when a journalist goes missing for so long or not that's suspicious when the fingers are being pointed at someone as special as those in charge of saudi arabia so those who do speak out sound rather well hear for yourself i just want to. the temper of those who screaming for the saudis these people or
2:25 pm
allies there's clearly a downside here there's clearly an upside and i thought it was worth investing a little hope in the upside of an arms deal with everybody all of the pieces of this one quarter of the one hundred ninety billion dollars is huge let's leave america where jamal khashoggi lived and worked side for a bit the e.u. must have a few strong words on journalist abuse or a likely murder our position is. on this but you seem to the saudis are still closer to the east of the system so easy to use your freedom and druids everywhere that's it but bear in mind that some big leaders haven't said a thing on the mystery it seems riyadh would have to be renamed to let's say moscow to really turn into one big evil attention grabber with donald trump saying i have to be very severe have it bad. but we'll see what happens tide

could have turned but just for contrast think of all the cases when russia's had a telling off whatever's wrong with the world the rebuke comes momentarily that someone say two and a half weeks. and a parent to protect british values. has launched a review into hate crime legislation he's considering expanding the want to shield move thunderball sections of society. reports not everyone thinks it's a good idea. 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 their sexual orientation their gender identity their race or their religion but the u.k. foreign secretary sajid javid gets his way then that definition of what constitutes
2:27 pm
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 an 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 saying that though it's noble it's not needed and it'll make it even harder to police what he calls genuine crime the first priority of any government is the protection of the people let us focus urgently on genuine crime supported by 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 i
2:28 pm
think you'd rather than focus on burglaries on facebook i say focus on the area should try and cut down the crime it's obviously the police to decide how they spend their resource i mean i would like to see more police on the beat on the street but that doesn't seem to be very hard for the moment. being pulled away from what i think most people would call this bread and butter issues of policing going after criminals murderers. in thirds large enough to go after. the so-called red cross which might be pleasantly into vigils before which is already an existing. legal remedy in court under the criminal law the government says it's determined to tackle hate crime because it directly challenges british values but convincing already struggling frontline officers to expand what they have to police is going
