11:01 am
friday the main focus of their talks will be the last remaining minutes in stronghold of we here in the red cross i was completely overwhelmed by the scope of destruction what these now absolutely critical issues to ensure that these people can regain access to some basic so obvious is. whether the welcome you're watching r.t. international this thursday evening she's gone six pm here in moscow. now in total mind suspicious packages have been found by police across the u.s. all were addressed to major political and media figures along with c.n.n. new york and. new york has described the roots which appear connected as domestic terror the. trump meanwhile has come under fire with critics saying his
11:02 am
use of rhetoric as you would hate the president himself blames the media if this is donald spoke to me it. won't 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 of all message that x. or 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
11:03 am
whole situation in their own favor now we don't know trump he's already talked a lot about this he has tweeted blaming the media for spearheading they hate he said that they are hateful beyond description that was in tweed but that was not the only thing that he had to say as part of a larger national effort to bridge the divides and bring people together the media also has a responsibility just a civil turn to stop the hostility and constant negative and oftentimes false attacks and stories have to do with. i'm not one who sees 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
11:04 am
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 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 are unverified reports and images of one of the explosive devices found allegedly showed a depiction of something that looked like an islamic state flag but instead of arabic letters there what it had that was a catchphrase of a very famous american comedian and here's the comedian it with his catchphrase this is.
11:05 am
again 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 of 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 a it's a bit of a blessing for them in a 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 media and legal analyst lionel believes that could be a deeper meaning to this story. hillary clinton others talk about you know
11:06 am
rancorous you know the tenor of just what it's all over the place. it's 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 trying supporter in a restaurant and have at a gas station or or somewhere you get in their face and when they go low we fight this rhetoric granted not on the level of pipe bombs and white powder put this is what we've been talking about all over the place. while tensions are also on the rise in the u.s. over a large migrant caravan which is approaching the country's border with mexico and with midterm elections looming as we've said it's also becoming a highly politicized issue. i've been watching for weeks as the caravan came up i'm not letting them in they're not coming here and they're not coming and. everyone in
11:07 am
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 assured of the illegal immigration recently caravan of immigrants was stopped by a group of flags waving protestors 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 challenge the trouble. it's 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. rather security and prevent any sort of ensuring that this
11:08 am
is a moral and humanitarian crisis we simply cannot allow people to poor 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 so we are a better country then one that shares families apart we turned it into a great political football and people are still all kinds of political opponents. did president obama really poured more people than any other president in total president obama had deportees more than two point five million undocumented people by twenty fifteen. immigration becomes a political issue when there is obviously have. ultimately what were some ships going out on this particular matter being on both sides and i think when we get
11:09 am
you know a dozen days away from. such a vital election not too surprising. and i think the question is how what damage you know the kind of rhetoric from the right now in the last half hour we're not just those people but to the next time that. facebook has been fined by the u.k.'s information commission over the cambridge and then they took a scandal the commission said that the company had failed to protect and use the data that comes apple's boss tim cook gave a damning speech to the european parliament claiming that personal information is being weaponized by tech giants every day billions of dollars changed hands in countless decisions are made on the basis of our likes and dislikes our friends and families our relationships and conversations our wishes and fear. our hopes and dreams
11:10 am
these scraps of data each one harmless enough on its own are carefully assembled synthesised traded and sold. we've moved on the story his and the situation. 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.a.o. said that as many as one million of those people were in the u.k. and the i.c.a.o.
11:11 am
says that this information was allowed to be gathered without clear consent. between two thousand and seven and two thousand and fourteen facebook processed the personal information of users by allowing application developers access to the information without sufficiently clear and informed consent and allowing access even if users had not downloaded the app but were simply friends with people who had well a facebook have said they're reviewing this latest find that was announced but should have done more at the time while 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 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
11:12 am
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 we shouldn't sugarcoat the consequence of. this is surveillance. and these stockpiles of personal data serve only to enrich the companies that collect. this should make us very uncomfortable it should serve a loss. a quarter of all children in some of the poorest countries are trapped in child labor according to unicef with the cocoa industry becoming an area of growing
11:13 am
concern. you can do whatever the slings while you swear at times which is what. u.s. federal appeals court on tuesday reinstated a lawsuit against food producers nestlé in cargill a group of former child slaves from mali cues the companies of supporting for child labor by purchasing cocoa from ivory coast the former child sleeves so waited to long for justice in this case in sam the allegations bring a picture of overseas slave labor the defendants perpetuated from headquarters in the united states while 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 any wrongdoing. regrettably in bringing such lawsuits the plaintiffs class action lawyers are targeting the very organizations
11:14 am
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 only twenty seventeen nestlé did publish its first report on its progress in eliminating child labor in its supply chain and it details the main areas the company had been focusing on the human and labor rights lawyer dan kadlec believes that consumer pressure is the best way to bring about change. companies that can get away with forced labor or child labor will. will use it because they want to maximize their profits quietly simples that and i think companies have found in code to the wall are the space to be able to use force child labor and so that's why so they're using that's why these lawsuits are important because they force these companies hopefully to amend their action i think in the case of
11:15 am
a nestle for example i think consumer pressure boycotts can work absolutely they have in the past including against nestle itself which is banned frankly a bad actor or in very different ways over the years watching i think the national we're going to take a quick right now and we'll be back to. you know world of big part of the law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter 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 for watching closely watching the hawks.

looking glass the newspapers didn't show any concrete sources during your sufficient information and your talks about from talking to the president of the united states in your world the united states of america was brazenly talking for example the german chancellor and this information was confirmed for me. was you can see average one the mentioned in this article is sense to disagree with it but what they do agree on is that it simply is not true. ok thank you dana. 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 be at the top of the agenda the launch of a so-called constitution committee for syria is also on the books and this is seen as a key step towards finding a political solution to the crisis well after seven years of war it is now the only

11:21 am
a in fact 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 the eastern i think i have never seen anything like this in my twenty seven years of 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 unlivable what is now absolutely critical is to ensure that these people can regain access to some basic services such as water sanitation hales. well are particularly concerned about the possibility of escalation.
11:22 am
of violence in that there are up to three million people living in this province. in their route simply result in a humanitarian disaster. we have all known for a very long time that this is and continues to be the wars conflict that we see in a very very long time 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 are the tar me and continue our effort at the same level as in the past few years because now people

11:25 am
countries combined and i see these new war games close to russia as a further uncivil 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 into knots in nato into the warsaw pact countries or the former soviet countries and today it's in thirteen of those countries so if 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 . and that brings you up to date with all the news this hour don't forget they we've got sept twentieth stories today at our website and we can find that at r.t. dot com. prosecution will need to become almost. a clique or you
