that outrage in the u.k. after a radical muslim cleric accused of trying terror attacks. on the signature of the town's. anjem choudary was reportedly taken to this probation house in london the notorious radical preacher was released out of jail having served just half of his five and a half years sentence following being sent to jail back in twenty sixteen for encouraging people to join isis now the british prime minister to resign me has said the authorities are well prepared for this development on the question of anjem choudary obviously facing extremist picture he pledged his allegiance to di ash he was convicted of infighting support for them and that if and when any terrorist offender is released well rehearsed plans are put in place to keep the public safe and the police they presume that probation and other agencies have
4:11 pm
a. powers available to them the fifty one year old father of five who once led an extremist group that was bound under terrorist laws in the u.k. is going to be serving the rest of his time within the community on license he's going to be monitored by the m i five the police as well as other agencies now he's not exactly free and is going to be staying at the probation house under several conditions those include not being able to preach or attend certain mosques he will only be able to communicate with people that authorities have allowed him to communicate with he will have one telephone his internet use will be supervised as well as his travels limited he will not be able to leave the u.k. now the place where he's a reportedly now going to be staying is on the same street as the school and we've been gauging some opinions from locals about this here whether he says it the other end of the country i'd rather he didn't say this about influence he's not he's evil
4:12 pm
he's negative he's maligned there's nothing nice to say. maybe if you go to a country where jihadism is more accepted but not here the wrong place for him if you can say to me that the student in this country the reported cost of the security operation to have him be out of jail is said to be at a whopping two million pounds a year compared to the fifty thousand pounds a year it would have cost to keep him in jail reaction to this was also 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 choudhry is welcome 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 he is the release of anjem choudary who claims some of those citizens of foreignness and their own her.
4:13 pm
is a threat to our security is betraying all of us and we need to defend all communities in our nation we need a new treason act indeed this could be seen as a concerning development chattery did not himself organize any terrorist attacks nonetheless he is seen as one of the most dangerous radical wiser's in the u.k. reporting from london understands the church for r.t. but his media commentator neil wallis think stradivari is too dangerous to be released. if they believe he is this potentially dangerous if the reports are true that we've all read in the papers of people saying if anything he's got more radical in jail since he's been inside why on earth are they releasing him if this was a man who. was a rapist or something which he fully approved of incidentally for isis anybody who wasn't one of their followers but if this man was a rapist and he was saying i'm going to write pursues i get out would they allow
4:14 pm
him out this guy has inspired attack after attack after attack dreadful atrocities on the streets of britain and yet we're letting him out of jail. humanitarian groups in the usa washington has effectively bought them from visiting north korea to provide relief to the population sanctions imposed by the united nations last winter have already forced aid groups to say very limited shipping farm equipment to the country north korea is one of the world's poorest nations with one third of children exhibiting stunted growth due to malnutrition according to the world food programme the trumpet ministrations move has been explained as part of its maximum pressure campaign aimed at forcing chung to give up nuclear weapons to discuss this further now across life to eric a surat can co-founder of lawyers for peace and even a trial demilitarization in
4:15 pm
a career thanks for joining us on the program eric let's talk about the move why do you think the trumpet mr nation has taken this decision to target humanitarian aid . well when you do human eyes a country you can take steps against without a lot of opposition and it seems to me that these groups on the ground help build relationships help expose that it's not all. so black and white good and evil as we portray it and therefore i think that's one of the reasons is to limit that and then there's the skewed rationale that somehow by squeezing food out of people's mouths that we're going to force the government to change and that's very naive on a lot of levels in connection with korea so i think we're operating from a naive policy and i think there's underlying object is to prevent
4:16 pm
interaction and relationship building with the north east say it's naive eric obviously has taken this decision thinking that it would be effective will it be effective it pressurizing the north to give up its nuclear program or how likely is it that they'll be a backlash from pyongyang. it's kind of apples and oranges you're not going to deal with the nuclear issue by trying to starve out the country. if they feel that there is this enemy out there that is causing this problem it's going to ratchet up the rhetoric it's going to avoid more dialogue because they're going to be seen as the enemy i mean we have to look at it historically when the united states divided that korea and no doubt that our country did that when we divided the koreas we left eighty seven percent of the arable land in south korea
4:17 pm
that meant the north has always had to import food assistance as always had to import farming supplies and equipment because of the rather it rigorous mountains and. the situation in north korea and so they know that that will hurt people but what we found in iraq and other places that these kind of sanctions and killing children and i don't think we should be. back on the scene the issue of negotiation and peace on the backs of the lives of small children now that's what the public certainly say isn't it eric i mean how how will china and south korea react to this decision do you think we've already seen seoul in washington at odds over some of the agreements reached at the latest north south summit what are your thoughts on. yeah i and i've been to north korea four times i've held the and of the president of the national assembly in mine and told him about peace
4:18 pm
loving americans and that we want to have resolution when you put human faces on things it makes a difference that's what seoul is doing in so many ways is diffusing the issue and helping them work toward a reunification of their divided country and in essence to deny access to humanitarian groups groups that are providing just agricultural assistance or things that help a country theat themselves and their families and their children that seems to be to be kind of cruel and unusual punishment and i would hope that they would speak up that under international law the use of food as a weapon is a war crime we cannot allow those types of steps to be taken and not have the u.n. step up a little and say wait a minute you may have your political differences you may need to negotiate an end to this war finally and just have an armistice degree in that but you should be
4:19 pm
allowing humanitarian aid and food to travel freely otherwise what you're doing is using such manipulation as an act of war and certainly that's going to be seized on by the north and used to perhaps slow down and progress that you hoped would be a proceeding at this point and l.h.'s going to say what the reaction is going to be . and the latest decisions that only of eric founder of lawyers the place and tries. to come out of the carpet. there is a battle between witches and priests brewing in the us and it's not a prelude to a halloween later this month one catholic priest is facing off with a brooklyn occult shop which has announced the public hexing of supreme court justice brett kavanaugh caleb orpen has more details. after deep divisions took
4:20 pm
place in us society regarding the newly confirmed supreme court justice brett kavanaugh it seems that these divisions are not over and they are now taking on a spiritual dimension we have a bookstore in brooklyn that caters to a cult practitioners saying that they are staging a public ceremony to place a hex on brett kavanaugh people who describe themselves as witches will be conducting the ceremony tickets are being sold on the internet and the call on the internet says please join us for a public hax on brett kavanaugh and upon all rapists and the patriarchy which emboldens rewards and protects them the call goes on to say that witchcraft is quote the only means of exacting justice available to those of us who have been wronged by men just like him now there's been quite a hub of on american t.v. screens one of those who spoke up was a founder of women for trump and she took great offense at this ceremony to be conducted in brooklyn by those who call themselves witches it is
4:21 pm
a scary time right now i mean there's a list of things going on now you've got witches that are placing a hat on brett kavanaugh now an exorcist an official exorcist is planning to calendar the ceremony with a ceremony of his own he'll be conducting a mass on saturday to counter the ceremony being conducted by the witches in brooklyn now this exorcist was quoted as saying that this is a conjuring of evil not about free speech he goes on to say that they are going to direct evil to have a permanently averse effect on the supreme court justice he will then be conducting this ceremony to counter the mass so as americans remain divided over brett kavanaugh and some of got to be thinking of some classical moments in cinematic history.

high shock being tortured and killed in the saudi consulate in istanbul with no information being made public from the investigations or trying to look at the case that's been sidelined where normally it would cause a political storm. a quick look at the calendar back here was when jamal khashoggi was last seen alive days past an old saying that was the point when the us president had this response to the question is mr. it surely looks that way to me it's very sad very limited so we're waiting for the results. about reader for diversification there were here to be able to get to the bottom fairly soon well it'll have to be very severe i read it. but we'll see what up here we are that rather obvious one for many took sixteen days. even though
4:26 pm
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. 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 rule or when a journalist goes missing for so long or not that's suspicious when the fingers are
4:27 pm
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. temper of those who screaming for the saudis these people or. is there is clearly a down side here there's clearly an up side and i thought it was worth investing a little hope in the upside of don't think on this issue that we need to. get this thing could some of them arms deal with everybody who are the pieces of this one quarter of the one hundred ninety billion dollars it's huge and it will mean a lot of just a little bit of. money coming to our coffers let's leave america where you lived and worked side for a bit the e.u. must have a few. strong words on drollest abuse or
4:28 pm
a likely murder our position is we haven't seen this movie but you sing to the sound as a stool closer to release the system so you can see to see who it is you see them in the roots a video with that's it but bear in mind that some big leaders haven't said a thing on the mystery it seems odd 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 i mean it's a bad thing. but we'll see what happens tide could have turned but just for contrast think of all the cases when russia has had a telling off for whatever's wrong with the world the rebuke comes momentarily that someone say two and a half weeks. a film a long serving f.b.i.
