it's like the gold rush is very very similar to. this beautiful story ended with pollution and the bus station a lot of people have left here i don't know too many people here and slow down too much they lost their jobs got laid off the american dream is changing that's not what it used to be. it's a tough reality to deal with. a series of bomb threats continues in the u.s. for a second consecutive day meanwhile president from the american media trying to argue just who used to play. the media also has a responsibility to set a civil tongue to stop the hostility. u.s. appeals court reinstates a lawsuit against major food producers accusing them of supporting child slavery and the syrian opposition delegation will meet with the russian foreign minister on

friday the main focus of that will be the last remaining minutes and stronghold of it we hear from the red cross i was completely overwhelmed by the scope of stew struction what is now absolutely critical is to ensure that these people can regain access to some basic so obvious as. well can you watching our international where it's just gone four pm here in the russian capital now following a string of intercepted parcel bombs sent to senior democrat figures in the u.s. police in new york at a restaurant owned by the at the robert de niro were another suspicious package has been found these are live pictures we're looking at from there in total nine explosive devices have now been discovered in the past two days the mayor of new york described the incidents appear which. connected as domestic terror meanwhile

has come under fire with critics saying his use of rhetoric has fueled hate the president himself blames the media so let's talk more about this now with our correspondent dan office in the studio we were hearing there the new york mayor has called this domestic terror just take us through donald trump's reaction well indeed very strong words from the new york mayor and all trump well he's known as probably the least presidential figure to be in office in a long time to hold the top job but reacting to what happened he tried to keep his cool. in these times we have to unify we have to come together and send one very clear strong and mistake a ball message that there were threats of political violence of any kind have no place in the united states of america. but that doesn't appear to have been the reaction well no unity one would argue is

a rare state found in the united states of america right now and with midterms it's less than two weeks before the midterm vote so that isn't helping at all basically both camps the conservatives and the democrats they have been trying to spin the whole situation in their own favor now donald trump is in the red corner so to speak so he's already talked a lot about this he's tweeted blaming the media for what happened blaming the media for spearheading the hades he said that they are hateful beyond description and called on them to clean up their act that was in tweed but that was not the only thing that he had to say. as far to the larger national effort to bridge the divides and bring people together the media also has a responsibility just set a civil tone and to stop the endless hostility and constant negative

and oftentimes false attacks and stories have to do. not want to see as equal blame spread all around our president cannot escape special scrutiny he is at the head of the hate parade and way too often clearly reading prepared remarks at a rally he seemed not to give a damn so trump in the red corner mainstream media in the blue corner so to speak and the c.n.n. by no means were the only ones ganging up on trump everybody jumped on him in fact not just him his daughter ivanka trump came under fire as she was attacked for supporting her father for this in this call for unity trump did also get his fair share of hate because many many journalists and pundits have blamed him for you know cultivating of this culture of hatred now adding gasoline to these flames unverified reports and images over one of the explosive devices found allegedly it

showed a depiction of something that looked like an islamic state flag but instead of arabic letters that what it had that was a catchphrase of a very famous american comedian and his the comedian it with his catchphrase. do work. as a larry the cable go down and south acts and southern acts and so again it's verified whether or not that catchphrase was on the id but if it was it doesn't take a genius do two and two and get the character this comedians playing on stage is pretty much the most stereotypical image of a trump voter so right now it looks like the democrats have it's a bit of a blessing for them all and twisted way that this thing happened especially when no

one thankfully know nobody was killed or even injured so they are trying to spin it in such a way that donald trump is to blame while donald trump and his camp are trying to spin it in a completely different way and well one thing to know for certain is that as mid-terms draw closer this isn't going to change it's going to just get worse yeah sure is ok thanks hugo that was done. well media and legal analyst lionel believes there is a deeper meaning to this story. the clinton others talk about. rancorous you know the tenor of just like it's almost. everywhere there is also on another wave if you will rhetoric and that is various democratic leaders maxine waters in eric holder who are saying you know go out there and when you say you're strong supporter in a restaurant and have at

a gas station or or somewhere you get in their face when they go low we fight this rhetoric granted not on the level of pipe bombs and white powder but this is what we've been talking about all over the place. the mall tensions are also on the rise in the u.s. over large migrant caravan which is approaching the country's border with mexico and with the midterm elections looming as we said it's become a highly politicized issue. i've been watching for weeks as the caravan came up not letting them in and not coming in and they're not coming and. everyone in this room is an immigrant you know who in the white house and so a little bit of a different picture he was talking about this caravan the caravan the caravan. there has been a sure legal immigration recently caravan of immigrants was stopped by

a group of flags waving protesters ministration official say they're working as efficiently and as effectively as possible the u.s. government doesn't give them any necessities when they dropped off the bus station . that shows you the challenges the trouble ministration had in dealing with the crisis they inherited from the obama administration who got a free pass from the media on causing this crisis what happened to the democratic party as one said bill clinton president obama understood that border security helps define a country you. better security and prevent people from the bench really believe that this is a moral and humanitarian crisis we simply cannot allow people to for into the united states undetected undocumented this is what we just got from president obama he writes immigration can be a controversial topic my administration acted to lift the shadow of deportation from these young people and we are

a better country then one that shares families apart we turn it into a great political football and people are split on all kinds of political. did president obama really poured more people than any other president in total president obama had deportee more than two point five million undocumented people by twenty fifteen. immigration becomes a political issue when there is obviously have. also on the table there were some shifts going on this topic and this particular event is being used on both sides and i think when we get you know a dozen days away from such a vital a luncheon it's not too surprising. and i think the question is what damage in this kind of rhetoric from both the right and the last have we're not just those people going to the next time that this. facebook has been slapped with

a large fine by the u.k. to information commission over the cambridge analytic a scandal the commission said that the company had failed to protect the data and it comes to is apples both tim cook gave a damning speech in european parliament claiming that personal information is being weaponized by the tech giants. every day billions of dollars change hands in countless decisions are made on the basis of our likes and dislikes our friends and families our relationships and conversation our wishes. our hopes and dreams. each one harmless enough on its own or carefully assembled. and so. ok let's go live now to our correspondent and in london nasty we're just listening

there to tim cook's would you think that would have touched a nerve of facebook. well law and order that remains to be seen what we do know is that the information commissioner's office here in the u.k. seems to share some of that opinion the i.o.c. here in the u.k. which is the independent data protection regulator have slapped facebook with a five hundred thousand pound fine for the role they played in the cambridge analytical scandal specifically failing to protect their users personal data when an app that was downloaded by just over three hundred thousand people ended up gathering information of eighty seven million people sharing some of that information with cambridge analytics that was later said to have been used for targeted political advertising in the time during the u.s. presidential election and the i.c.l. said that as many as one million of those people were in the u.k. and the i.c.a.o. says that this information was allowed to be gathered without clear consent.

between two thousand and seven and two thousand and fourteen process the person information of users. by allowing application developers access to the information without sufficiently clear and informed consent and allowing access even if use is not the. but we're simply friends with people who have. well facebook have said they're reviewing this latest find that was announced but should have done more at the time. when we respectfully disagree with some of the findings we have said before that we should have done more to investigate claims about cambridge analytical and taken action in two thousand and fifteen. well this amount of five hundred thousand pounds we have to be clear that it is the biggest possible fine given the existing regulation that was used that had to be used on this case despite the fact that there is new regulation now in place since may twenty eighty

and that would have actually increased that number too much much larger amount which would have been seventeen million or a four percent of facebook's global. turnover which is obviously a very different number however critics are saying that still these these numbers are minuscule given the fact that facebook's annual revenue just in twenty seventeen was forty point seven billion dollars ok thanks. to their with the late. now a quarter of all children in the world's poorest countries are trapped in child labor according to unicef in particular cases of child slavery in the cocoa industry have recently become more prominent. can do well for the longest while least work on. what a u.s. federal appeals court on tuesday reinstated

a lawsuit against the producers nestlé and cargill a group of former child slaves from mali you keys the companies of supporting force child labor by purchasing cocoa from ivory coast. the former child slaves so waited to long for justice in this case in some the allegations being a picture of overseas slave labor the defendants perpetuated from headquarters in the united states the plaintiffs said that the company's provided financial and technical support to ivory coast farmers in order to guarantee the cheapest cocoa nestlé denies or the allegations. regrettably in bringing such lawsuits the plaintiffs class action lawyers are targeting the very organizations trying to fight forced labor force child labor is unacceptable and has no place in our supply chain we have explicit policies against it and are working with other stakeholders to combat this global social problem one in twenty seventeen nestlé did publish its

first report on progress in the limitation of charge labor in its supply chain it detailed the main areas the company had been focusing on but human labor human and labor rights lawyer dan kadlec believes that consumer pressure is actually the best way to bring change companies that can get away with forced labor child labor or will. will use it because they want to maximize their profit simples that. i think companies have fair and in cote d'ivoire. the space to be able to use force child labor. and so that's why so they're using it you know. that's why these lawsuits are important because it forces companies hopefully to amend their actions i think in the case of a nestle for example i think consumer pressure boycotts can work absolutely they have in the past including against nestle itself which has been frankly

a bad actor or in very different ways over the years. still ahead this hour delegation of syrian opposition forces is set to meet with the russian foreign minister here in moscow within the next twenty four hours we'll have a look at that in more detail just after. what politicians do something. they put themselves on a lot. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to express. some want to be. that you'd like to be close that's what the four three in the

morning think you could get. into st paul's in the waters of. the first six. welcome back without saying now a delegation of syrian opposition forces is set to meet the russian foreign minister in moscow on friday the situation in series italy province will top the

agenda on the launch of a so-called constitution committee for syria is also on the books this is seen as a key step towards finding up. political solution to the crisis well after seven years of war it is now the only remaining militant stronghold in the country there are an estimated thirty thousand there including ten thousand al nusra terrorists that's according to the u.n. a deadline for militants to pull out of a buffer zone imposed under a deescalation deal brokered by russia was recently extended roughly three million civilians live in italy and many of them fleeing the region. or i. think we were living in a camp life was difficult there was no aid no bread no water everything was scarce the situation was terribly bad well there is barely any shelter in winter and in

summer you would suffer from the heat that was our life. domenic still hot director of operations the red cross has just returned from the former militant stronghold of eastern ghouta which was recently retaken by the syrian government. i have to say i was completely overwhelmed by the scope of destruction in eastern i think i have never seen anything like this in my twenty seven years of a career in the place where i was the nearly ninety percent of the infrastructure is completely destroyed you see entire neighborhoods are at the steroid houses that have become completely unbelievable what is now absolutely critical to ensure that these people can regain access to some basic so obvious as such as water sanitation pales. well. particularly concerned

about the possibility of escalation. of violence in libya there are up to three million people living in this province. in there would simply result in a humanitarian disaster. we have all known for a very long time that this is and continues to be the war conflict that we see very very long and yet there doesn't appear to be sufficient political convergence to bring this conflict to an end so i truly hope that we will now see the end of this conflict so that humanitarian aid can finally reach all the people of syria who are sold desperately longing for peace if anything needs are just going to grow in the coming months and years and really. continue

our effort at the same level as in the past few years because now people are also getting more accessible and therefore we can do more and we absolutely need to make sure that we can maintain the humanitarian effort at the levels of the previous years. in other news the border between bosnia and croatia as witnessed yet more violence between migrants and police is hundreds attempted to cross into the. of migrants demanding to enter a career a ship could be seeing getting aggressive with police who responded pretty gassing back to disperse the crowds several people were left in the scuffles croatia has become one of europe's main and from ports for migrants hoping to reach wealthier countries such as france and germany but croatia is reluctant to accept the u. migrant quotes is creating

a stumbling block in talks to resolve the crisis. back today does see the start of nato used largest military exercises since the cold war tens of thousands of troops as well as war ships and planes arrive for the troops in norway which shares a border with russia. but this is an important day because troy ensuring sure is needless biggest exercise since the end all the cold war. this is not what is fictitious but the lessons we learn will be real while the

russian defense minister has expressed concern about nighties increased military activity near russia's borders saying it's reached a level not saying finale three decades well the thing is that the need to use military activity at the borders of russia has reached an unprecedented post cold war level the scope of operational military training at our borders is expanding and becoming more intense bloc countries are engaged in offensive drills the aim of all this is increased capacity to swiftly deploy troops across europe. kate has been aggressive towards many countries as in wars with a number of countries right now has military in about one hundred seventy two countries has about twenty times the number of foreign military bases as all other countries combined and they see these new war games close to russia as a furtherance of that aggression in this case towards russia the united states made

a promise after the fall of the soviet union that it would not go in to not send nato into the warsaw pact countries or the former soviet countries and today it's in thirteen of those countries so it never abided by that pact and this is clearly an aggressive move on the part of the united states and nato in my opinion. i'm not sure news wrapped for this hour back again with the headlines of more news for you in just about this is. after all the arts we will the world we have the most gold we had the sound this current day we had low interest rates and we were american century ready to

go and like the awful good lottery winner that blows it all here we are twenty eight say having kind of what. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter you have to do with one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime stamped each dish. eighty five percent of global will you want to be old for rich eight point six percent market saw a thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one to one business show you can't afford to miss the one and only.

run with the flow to the best out of the till is a little bit of. the concepts of most pain to perform i had actually prepared myself to die. no said he did what i do know sorry trust me i asked him to. as most of. the snow and homo stuff time to narrow the clown ah. squinty was. if he had the goods sewed on. so we'll see him getting. more traditionally if it was that he could with us if not yes can be patient. education. here in the.

lab. cranking gave americans a lot of job opportunities i needed to come up here to make some money like me twenty five thousand dollars as a teacher or i could make fifty thousand dollars a year truck so i chose to drive truck people rush to a small town in north dakota was among the employment rate of zero percent like gold rush is very very similar to a gold rush but this beautiful story ended with. a station a lot of people have left here i don't know too many people here and just slowed down so much they lost jobs got laid off the american dream is changing that's not what it used to be. and it's a tough reality to deal with. there

. are. a lot of welcome to well. part of seventeen years into the war in afghanistan the country seems first dog in the repetitive cycle of violence and elections assassinations and free conciliation talks can the changing world around afghanistan finally get all of these beaten an extremely bloody track well to discuss that i'm now joined by ahmed wali masood a former afghan diplomat and president of the knesset foundation mr masood it's good to talk to you this evening thank you very much for your time. thank you thank you now whenever i look at the afghan politics i'm always overcome by the feeling

of deja vu you have the same scenario playing out all over and over again the with some whole promise of peace on the eve of the elections crushed by the absolute hopelessness and despair after wards is that your perception as well and if so what explains this compulsive dysfunction well as you said rightly that for the past seventeen years the people of afghanistan have been looking for peace but so far after seventeen years despite efforts most international community despite their aim to bring peace despite their promise to the afghan people to bring peace to have not been a boat to bring peace under the contrary you can see that in afghanistan that terrorism and the taleban they have come out and i believe their reason for their failure to throw in the beginning we did not have a comprehensive roadmap for peace and i want to start and yet despite all this

insecurity over a four million afghans who went to the polls over the weekend to lag their parliament terence which if accurate is a very high turnout for a country where voting is associated with such a high life race given the scale of this year's election violence almost eighty people killed around five hundred wounded do you think it was worthwhile. well as you sit right into despite coming up to seventeen years we still do not have a proper election we do not that maintain security for the people but of course we do appreciate dead and massive coming of the people to the fullest assurance that is being appreciated despite all the tricks people came out to determine their own future their own decision but it to save time do it be find a top on that the yes we want to come to good to democracy but unfortunately under port of the elect.
