7:02 am
a territorial dispute trying to looks now it what has led to the change. the japanese prime minister is in china and he's smiling. that was him with the chinese premier who was smiling too. so why of course these kind of guys put up a happy face for the cameras during the protocol handshake well sometimes things between countries get so bad that even handshakes can save the day. but both leaders surely would have preferred not to stand there together like that just a few years ago the gloves were off between beijing and tokyo because of these tiny islands in the east china sea just to realize how much i hate that land dispute generated have

trump has only got himself to blame if he is unhappy about china and japan getting closer together. us did not expect that that other countries would be able to set aside their differences and get to get to the table with each other as relatively easily as they have been able to do so but at the end of the day the us which has to britain which has to carry the blame for this both the countries are frankly facing uni lateral and hostile trade enforcement action from the trumpet ministration china primarily but i would also suggest that part of the reason for the coming together is because both countries realize the important players. and that without speaking to each other the relationship their relationship with each other as well as the larger geo political environment in which they operate becomes

a little more negative. now shoes whether flung at speakers all banged on podiums to make the occasional appearance in politics and now after the you rejected to sleaze proposed the budget it was the turn of an italian enemy paid to put his foot or rather shoe down. well it is the first time the european commission has rejected any member states budget proposal the bloc gave rome three weeks to revise its spending plans artie's done quarter breaks down the dispute. brussels is sharpening its knife in preparation for a new battle with rome for the first time the e.u. has flat out rejected a member state's budget demanding
7:07 am

7:20 am
thought to be anti arab. it has been brought to our attention that disney's aladdin junior has historically been criticized for his inaccurate negative stereotyping of arabic coaches after careful consideration and with input from the perspectives of teachers parents and community members we decided that this production is not the best fit for our community and the play arabs are described as barbaric those are the exact words that they used and the actual play was very controversial apparently in the early ninety's and it's not the first time the suppose it barbarism of aladdin has provoked anger a year after the release of disney's in the lyrics of the song were changed the original version included the line where they cut off your ear this was replaced with a new short description of the desert and not everybody sees the offense in the ad in story and some parents have criticised the school's cancellation of the play they're saying we're a community but yet they didn't even ask anyone they just made this decision by

themselves middle east analyst john howard just says that people these days are often too easily offended it seems to me more to be about a love story it's an animated movie it's a disney movie does the you know wants to attract as large an audience as possible so i don't think there's anything in it that's particularly offensive anybody wants to claim victim status you know it to their benefit to the the other side as risks being you know call of a big year or intolerant or hater of some some kind and in everybody has a very low sensitivity to that so really it relies a lot on solve policing for people to say really is this really that offensive is this really doing harm to the group that it's claiming the harm or is it or is it just a you know a very minor amount of the child just be overlooked. international that's how the

7:27 am
a look at it on this edition of politic. politicking i'm larry king the one common aspect of what we know so far about the intended targets that would looks like an act of domestic terrorism is that they have each been heavily criticized by the president the obama's the clinton's former attorney general eric holder former cia director john brennan democratic congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz and maxine waters business been george soros and cnn's new york bureau all apparent targets of explosive devices and all targets of donald trump's anger campaign rhetoric and negative tweets has our unconventional president's words contributed in any way to these criminal acts tough question. is asian of a wall is going on it's worth asking we start there with our political panel they

are john we're back in lansdown tent of virginia he's a republican strategist former tim one of the republican party of virginia and in boston jake mccabe jake worked in the obama administration a former officials the chief speechwriter rather for tony general eric holder will start with jake which is a take on all of this jake. well i mean your first reaction is gratitude to the extraordinary men and women in law enforcement who put their lives in line every day and prevent and prevent these tragedies from becoming even bigger tragedies but you're absolutely right look this is a this is a tragic circumstance. but it's also infuriating this is not an act of god this doesn't come out of nowhere the reality is that you know the tone gets set at the top of the fish rots from the head down and when you've got a
7:29 am
a president of the united states who talks about democrats as being the enemy instead of the opposition who calls them violent and evil who says that the the press are the enemy of the people just days after members of the press are gunned down in an in annapolis you know this kind of rhetoric it doesn't just contribute to the environment that we're seeing around us it helps to create it and it is incredibly important when you're the president of united states to set the kind of tone that brings americans together and doesn't divide them and doesn't and doesn't fetish the kind of violence that we're seeing this president holds rallies and has held rallies across the country where he encourages his supporters to rough up protesters as well pay their pay their legal fees you know so this doesn't come out of nowhere and the idea that sorry go ahead go ahead finish. i was going
7:30 am
say the idea that you know somehow this is just the way that the times are now or that this is happening you know from both sides just just isn't isn't rooted in fact john i know you're not here is a spokesman for the president but. those who would jake said make some sense to you . well i think what's really infuriating is york do you do you recognize this country right now i don't i've never seen it this polarized and angry and our politics being so beyond anything i mean i'm only forty two years old but i just never see them like it and look i mean steve schoolies was gunned down maxine waters is calling for violence against republicans it's everywhere it's not just one person and i just it's a tragedy i think that when these midterms are over i pray that this will at least
