the sea shortly after takeoff from the indonesian capital this morning it's killed all one hundred eighty nine on board divers and i was searching among the. families returned to fukushima japan's accused of violating human rights with the u.n. concerned that people are being forced to live in areas where radiation levels remain unsafe. i've spoken to several mothers in particular who feel that they are being compelled to return because of financial hardships. here in moscow it's just a myth dates kevin only with you for the next thirty minutes with this update this monday first off german voters have dealt another blow to chancellor merkel and with both parties in a governing coalition on course to suffer heavy losses in sunday's state election in head. in the lead merkel's christian democrats are projected to drop eleven

percent points compared to twenty thirteen it's a very different story for the anti immigrant party though as well as the greens with supporters of both already in a celebration removed. and. the . state elections in has it came down to good old fashioned winners and losers in the winners enclosure while amongst them certainly alternative for germany they have their entering the state paula mint in for the first time i saw interesting enough the state where the party was first conceived in the idea founded back in twenty thirteen they've taken around thirty percent of the vote they'll take up their first seats there and that means they have representation in all of the local parliaments all of the state parliaments across germany and of course the national parliament the bundestag a day party leadership understandably happy at the result with the people's party

the f.t. is now represented in every german region after the great success it has also big winners on the night were the green party they've continued momentum that they've generated over the past few months it really is quite a surprise if you cast your mind back just over a year ago in the general election here in germany the greens the line into the fund the start now we've seen them make great grounds in local elections in bavaria they've just done the same thing in and look like they will be a key part in forming the local government there was where this win is that has to be loses and in this case the losers again were the wealthy parties representing the ruling grand coalition angle merkel's christian democratic union and the social democratic party both dropped around ten percent in the polls those votes going either to the greens or to alternative for germany for the most part what we have

seen though is is the people turning away on a local level from problems they see on a national level it's not just voters that have been saying this solution to date of the government isn't acceptable we therefore expect the c.d.u. to take. faction in the us house this evening there was a very mixed message as there was the christian democratic union to continue leading this state that many people have shown during this election that it must be different i mean has it in berlin or the suggestion there that there really needs to be a change at the top that it's angela merkel in berlin that's causing the problems that we're seeing reflected on local governments in the the sixteen german states don't get me wrong though this is no way going to be the result that topples angela merkel however it could be one of the thousand cuts that may eventually lead to her political to mice who brought some who's now have to pay in the berlin parliament

told us establishment afraid of the new kids on the block. the f.t. is a newcomer on the scene we've been now around for five an hour years i'd a massive success in every single election there's been and the other parties the old parties are absolutely petrified and afraid to talk to us because people are turning to us and we are gaining massive support in germany and the other side just simply afraid to lose their status to lose power and to give up their old belief that post where germany in the policy that served us for more than seventy years is still suitable for the new century which it isn't. grieving relatives who arrive to jakarta airport where an intern easy jet took off early this morning only then crashed into the sea a few minutes later it's killed all one hundred eighty nine on board.

the straw friends and family of the passengers and crew on the lion air flight one sixty were given medical assistance as they were told of the loved one's fate shortly after takeoff it seems on what should have been a local flight the crew that brand new boeing seven three seven requested an emergency landing the plane then plunged into the java sea air crash investigators say they won't speculate on the cause of the crash it intil data from those all important to flight recorders have been recovered we are the chief executive of aviation consultants international in jakarta but what may have caused the plane to come down that it was thirteen minutes into the flight and so it would have gone in to the second stage climb so it was generally be considered to be outside of the height that normally deployed at all or has problems it is brand new aircraft it's a highly reliable aircraft it's eight hundred max. seven three seven they first came into service around two thousand and seventeen and this i believe is the first

. accident certainly with fatalities of the peculiar aircraft it was a little bit overcast it wasn't under storms in the area. it would be hard to envision something apart from a major catastrophic failure. to have brought the aircraft down and certainly a high speed. crash is something which changed to lead one to a catastrophic failure of the airframe itself. hundreds of anti-war protesters have gathered in oslo against nato drills in norway reliances flexing its muscle in the biggest military exercises of the cold war it comes after moscow held its own major drills last month city of reports. fifty thousand troops two hundred and fifty aircraft sixty five

warships and ten thousand tanks and vehicles it's a pretty straightforward message it is ambitious and it is demanding in recent years europe's security environment has significant do it deteriorate good nato has been careful not to mention moscow as the bogeyman which the exercise is aimed against but there are no illusions needle jets will be flying two hundred kilometers from russian border as troops will be learning to fight in cold conditions against a simulated enemy that is and surprisingly exactly as powerful as moscow. the effect of this activity will increase the tension between norway and russia despite quite clumsy attempts by the representatives of the alliance and its member states to picture such military activity as defensive it's obvious that this fighting capabilities demonstration has a distinct anti russian character tensions now

a worse than they've been in a third of a century both nato and moscow have been go into it streams staging bigger and bigger war games russia's vostok maneuvers native's trident war games record size for both this year and each blaming each other. demonstrates russia's focus on exercising large scale conflict it fits into a pattern we've seen over some time and more assertive russia significantly increasing its defense budget and its military presence wait wait wait getting a little carried away that russia's military budget has been decreasing not increasing year after year you'd have thought nato intelligence would have spotted that now compare moscow's military spending to nato's which is almost a trillion dollars a year it literally accounts for harf the world's military spending i mean there is

no competition here in this the need to use military activity at the borders of russia has reached an unprecedented post cold war level bloc countries are engaged in offensive drills the aim of all this is increased capacity to swiftly deploy troops across europe. it's a remarkable cycle nato builds up its forces. responds by building up its own which nato then calls russian aggression and uses it to justify stationing more tanks more troops near russia. and repeat all very impressive this fire is military escalations go but what with all these war games this propaganda militant rhetoric and collapsing arms treaties one can only wonder how long can we go on like this and much more we can escalate the for a stupid decision or an accident puts

a spark to this trillion dollar powder keg and let the massive worry well let's get a view from norway will bring in tom just political analyst and also hey there thanks to time these are the biggest nato drills since the end of the cold war why now. it's not really a drill i think it's their problem and it. trying to look back on the typical nato drills we had in the seventy's and the eighty's but typical would be that we had ten thousand participants now we got more than fifty one thousand. back then it was three nato countries now we have all the twenty nine nato countries plus sweden which is not an imminent member of nato to finland and also jordan and representatives from the ukraine in georgia is also going to participate i mean this is. not something special you know it's a it's the largest military exercise in or it ever what is the worry are we just

sort of the amount we just saw our correspondent graphically outlining the huge disparity between the difference between what nato spends on its military and what russia spends on the military it way way far apart what's nato so worried about. how that's a good question and i think that there is to give a political struggle between the united states and russia going on you know and we smaller nations within nato are caught in this game that's that's you know the way i see it. normally it's also if you go back to the eighty's you know the cold war a typical thing would be that norway spends on defense per capita are about to say mess with finland and denmark now where we are spending twice as much next years at two thousand one thousand our defense budget is going to be at fifty nine billion which cronus that's seven billion dollars that's a lot for

a nation of five point two million people what a plaza inside the people of norway that is about this than what i think about it. well there was a demonstration on saturday and what i heard i wasn't there but what i heard it was thousand people demonstrating in front of the parliament imagine oslo is a very small city is only six seven hundred thousand people so one thousand people demonstrating and also that equals one hundred thousand london if you see my point there's something else i want to ask you as well the u.s. is delivered its largest i mean issue shipment in twenty years to the ramstein air base in germany what's again the goal of well what's the point of it. i would know the details of that at lunchtime is a sort of. mini united states and in their germany they don't you know they have huge bases there we also even though we've been members of nato we have kept. to this principle that not all foreign troops shot this station or posted in norway

that we have a. pledge we have broken and now we have three hundred fifty u.s. marines stationed in orrick permanently. and in general the release the soldiers that we can increase that to five thousand all the nights what's your prognosis for this do you think we're going to see a constant continued build up here and of course a corresponding with say there's this danger or might be a remote danger but there is a danger there that just one thing could spark off a conflict. it absolutely and you could say that russia is not a superpower as you'll still be union was. but russia is a nuclear power and misunderstanding technical you know mishaps can happen here and then we have to not get. so on except for that before we went into this you know this functions again against russia in two thousand and fourteen we exported for nine billion which incredulous to russian levels of you know there's

a several thousand jobs. that is dropped to i think is to two billion which grounds is nothing and there is very important for this particular within the oil business service in huge fleet of of the offshore of vessels and ready to do service for the russian customers living when we are not allowed to sort of the times in the long just we're going to have to leave it there but thank you for chip in today tell us what you think about the stories much appreciate it tom just political analyst thank you for the day. thank you. so who are from war to famine hacking to nuclear threats of just been talking about there's a lot going on in the world to make people concerned right now isn't there but turns out the biggest fear for people over the united states is much closer to home as caleb maupin explains. with halloween fast approaching pollsters are looking into what strikes fear into americans the most now turn on any mainstream t.v. network and they'll have an answer for you efforts to influence the twenty to

eighteen mid-term elections the big news and divisive stories and posts caravan of impoverished migrants white nationalists prepared to take to the streets trump administration plan couldn't race the definition of transgender but according to a new poll conducted by chapman university in california americans actual fears don't really line up when given a list of one hundred things to be afraid of including nuclear war zombies ghosts and other terrors americans listed their primary phobia for the fourth consecutive year as being corrupt politicians. and perhaps this fear isn't exactly baseless we do have a president whose tax returns are still under wraps and he seems to be pretty blatantly doing favors for his next of kin i've heard evolved i've heard how good would be. the fifo that know there's nothing to do with that but does that but i want to tell you the people that know know that he wagner would be dynamite but.

then be accused of nepotism if you could believe it right and trump got a lectured by tearing into his opponent hillary clinton he called her crooked hillary because her reputation for shady deals has been around for years the f.b.i. even looked into her clinton foundation the former secretary of state never shied away from taking big sums from financial heavyweights to do have to be paid six hundred seventy five thousand dollars well i don't know that's what they offered. accusations of corruption are abundant in american politics even though they rarely make the legal field in the united states there's all kinds of politicians being accused of insider trading lavish gifts as they say welcome to american politics but it seems that the mainstream media is working overtime. to direct our phobias elsewhere there's no limit to what the russian federation do to undermine american democracy while you know what we have to work on immigration i have a big dairy district to live agriculture

a lot of undocumented workers but these things aren't even in the top ten because we have so many of them. the things that relate to your life or the future of your kids and things like that not trumped up things like you know terrorism is going to get shoe or the bridges are going to fall down or something it's real life things that people are worried about a part of it is the economic ones including the corruption of politicians i was interested in the corrupt politician thing being at the top because for a long time people haven't recognized how corrupt their politicians are they think it's thinking in gradually that the whole system really stinks american politicians have learned that playing on people's fears is a big seller but it seems that what scares the americans the most is the very scare mongers trying to manipulate their fears tale of mopp and r.t. new york that into a bright next put off of japan's on the far from the u.n.

for relocating families in the fukushima radiation zone tell you all about it when we come back. i would prefer to say. the human space is must become into prana terry wish me instead so we're leaving in the solar system. and for sure we should expand on

other on other all this of the solar system i see this as a way of bringing in and developing more technology this new technology so that we can even learn. increase. in improve the quality of life on earth. by going twenty past midday or moscow next japan's been told by the un that it might be violating human rights by forcing families to return to fukushima seven years after a nuclear plant meltdown rendered the area uninhabitable the japanese government though insists that some areas are safe they say but the u.n. special report on hazardous substances says many feel they're being forced to return.

well the u.n. says it's disappointed that japan has ignored recommendations as to what constituted to save level of radiation after the nuclear disaster in twenty eleven the government rate the safety threshold twenty times the u.n. report says such levels pose a significant danger to public health especially children. i've spoken to several mothers in particular who feel that they are being compelled to return because of financial hardship to their financial assistance that was provided to them after the disaster has been reduced or eliminated however if you look at the actual recommendations what the what the be international bodies say is that they actually do not know what is acceptable dose of radiation for her children and women of reproductive age and they urge caution and a justification of any actions one of the unanswered questions that we have regarding fukushima relating to the waste is what they are going to do with the.

radioactive stored soil that's been stored in large plastic bags around around fukushima and where that will be disposed to date we have no answer for that either while the japanese foreign ministry says the u.n. report is based on one sided information which could cause unnecessary fears about fukushima as a footnote to this story tech giant google is under pressure after reports a former senior executive received a multi-billion dollar exit package of to be accused of sexual misconduct by a colleague it's also accused of trying to silence the story that goes back to twenty fourteen it goes down off reports. the era of me too has been celebrated as a turning point no more it seemed to could sexual harassers get away with it all to me to me to be to be to me to meet pull. but as some perpetrators were ostracized and ruined for life others apparently were

covered and protected this is the claim made in a new york times article about the man who fathered the android mobile operating system allegedly the google big short coerced and other employee into intercourse at a hotel an accusation andy rubin denies specifically i never coerced a woman to have sex in a hotel room these false allegations are part of a smear campaign by my ex-wife. but the misconduct story is only part of the scandal according to the paper google's big head has reportedly knew of the allegations but there was no big outing for rubin no public shaming no kavanah scale investigation what happened instead a discreet resignation letter filed by the executive a goodbye golden handshake of a staggering ninety million dollars and they passed on the back from the big boss i want to wish and the all the best with what's next with android he created something through the remarkable with

a billion plus happy users and the irony is that it's google one of the champions of the me to movement in supported by actions like creating a whole project with this i catching heat map for the hash tag and note that we did not edit this in any way including the music. of the fall when the paper published its investigation google retorted by flaunting its record of layoffs over such accusations in the last two years forty eight people have been terminated for sexual harassment including thirty who were seedy and managers and above. and from we've learned so far this scandal looks pretty black and white good going the new york times against potentially bad guy google but the irony actually goes deeper here the new york times is amidst a very similar scandal itself back in twenty seventeen their white house correspondent glenn thrush was accused of inappropriate sexual behavior the paper

did punish him by not allowing him to cover white house events anymore because that will show him those who are preaching the loudest about things like tolerance or things like you know taking moral high ground are often those who don't hold themselves to that same accountability because i don't think for them it's necessarily a more ality or even you know a principle of theirs i think it's more about politics to them so then when it's convenient for them to say they espouse the me too movement for political pragmatism or for you know sometimes i think click for click baits things like that that's very different from when it hits them personally the need to phenomenon had a lot of women inspired and empowered to giving them hope that maybe they don't have to be afraid to speak out anymore and while this message could not be more true it's hypocrites within the ranks that are stealing the hope from the victims.

he goes down oh fairly even without full us a snapshot of some of the main world news stories this monday from moscow so much more of course on all my inside out to get our up to get those the headlines straight to mobile device. of a great modern. you know world a big part of the movie lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back 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.

i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten like color crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you long to the rich eight point six percent market saw a thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred trade 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 number you need to remember is one one business shows you can afford to miss the one and only. this is holland kentucky. over the. place you were going to agree families are you lonely.

a coma any city with no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the programs that should. live to these people the survivors of disappearing before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in a million years i would see that and it's happening it's happened. so we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic developments only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk.
