6:02 pm
a pro trump republican candidate for the senate for the state of illinois used a photograph of j. wick sands on his social media feed as an anti advertisement so the caption next to the photograph read only you can stop this from becoming a reality but the problem is the picture wasn't quite reality the image of j. week sounds that he used was taken several years ago and since then the local authorities have made quite a few improvements to the local area so the miracles they're all rather cross country to try to pocket america are and then you come to a cover of walking joy and you see the different plane. when it is in america we don't remember for there right now is iraq and everything america we hear is just let's say we could run for wins come in use an old fire of africa somewhere and say look your town is going to look like this is the bad news. a match normally should
6:03 pm
be used or will use are going to put a good picture we've got a bit of hostility with the camera down there is it kind of is do you guys feel a bit kind of burned by the negative press attention that you guys have hard yes because it's a t.v. show that happened way before yeah nobody want to come study with it so you become a speech in people's faces just you know we would you know people don't like it they don't like it or the offending advert has now been removed and dr nick stella's spokesperson has issued an apology or cough an apology our intent was never to smear to town and to photo not known to us as jay wick sands in essex we never used a name for us it was an example of a town overburdened by poor governance which is exactly what we in our district are seeking to provide at every level back in two thousand and ten and two thousand and fifteen the government named the area as the most deprived in england in fact i was
6:04 pm
here to report on it at the time the time was thought up as a holiday resort for city dwellers back in the one nine hundred twenty s. these are all meant to be summer houses but because rents were so cheap people started living here all year round some parts of the town like tarmac roads street lighting or even pavements lost to shops that were here have been boarded up unemployment is rife in the town in fact sixty two percent of the people that live here depend on welfare payments. and the town isn't exactly a luxury seaside resort it is still a deprived area and even though local authorities have been keen to stress that they have invested in new roads and new drainage systems it could use more money there is some hesitation when you talk to the locals as well they don't want to talk to the cameras they've been burned before by. bad press and i keen to tan the
6:05 pm
image of the town around some concede that they could definitely use more investment but it's not up to politicians in america to judge their hometowns one interesting suggestion came from the director of a documentary about j. which she said that dr nick stella should come over here and she can sherm around the town and so he can see for himself all the improvements that have been made i get the sense that the locals care would have won which are things to say to him. precious space agency says a damaged sensor was responsible for an aborted soyuz rocket launch three weeks ago the two man crew was forced to object and both the american and russian on board were unharmed the agency released a video from an onboard camera which shows the rocket failure just two minutes into the flight.
6:06 pm
the crew were on their way to the international space station worry for the on the aborted space flight. it was an absolutely shocking news back then the first failure of this kind in the last thirty five years shortly after the incident a special high rent in commission was formed to investigate what went wrong with the sea use launch last month and today we're heard their verdict a sensor that is supposed to detect there in a support ration of the rocket stages a metal detail that big is to blame for the incident pictures were also released today showing that this detail was visibly deformed and it may sound like a technical failure but the commission concluded that the differ mation happened at
6:07 pm
the time when the rocket was assembled and as we know it is done always manually so as one of the members of the commission told me answering my question this tragedy has a name and a last name. law enforcement agencies are investigating the matter i would prefer not to discuss that here we are investigating the technical aspect of the mouth function but of course someone is always responsible for the different mission of the center caused the peroration issues and eventually the rockets stagers bumped into each other and it's crippled the rocket and this is when they merge into system reacted automatically by suppurating the crew capsule this is a shuttle to be doing is showing what exactly happened.
6:08 pm
a russian cosmonaut and an american astronaut the crew members of that flight came back safely to earth in that capsule and they are in good condition and their health was not affected and as we hear from british space agency was also missed their flight is shaping for next spring so approximately next march they will fly
6:09 pm
to the international space station but even before that there will be another manned flight from baikonur that is shed yule for december third. periods have been held in gaza for three boys killed in an israeli airstrike the children aged twelve to fourteen died in an air raid last sunday in southwest gaza families of the victims say the boys were setting nets to catching birds when they were hit but israeli army says the youngsters had approached the border security fence and were placing explosives next to it. troops to the squad of three suspects approaching the border under the cover of darkness in a crouched and suspicious manner the three operates in a way that was identical to previous incidents in which terror operatives had placed explosive devices in the same location because reaction from both sides on this latest incident in gaza. take three young boys who unfortunately were killed
6:10 pm
but they were clearly approaching an open fire zone that had been established by hamas six months ago families and close associates of those victims the children victims of two media outlets that there were children were doing a routine work over a teen activity simply putting traps for bait for bears so if i was a parent i wouldn't let my child anywhere near that border fence and the only reason that they were near that hostile border fence is to either cut the fence or plant explosives or kill or kidnap israelis it's the only reason there is no other logical reason from the be there the israel is always a claim that they don't target see really ns well in fact many syrians have been victims for israeli army actions throughout the region the i.d.f. the israel defense forces is the only army in the middle east and i would argue one of the only our music is the only army in the world that has multiple layers of
6:11 pm
confirmation before it issues open fire orders on anybody the latest incident in which a three policy the children were killed in the. was part of the of this repeated the story by these really army terms of the buffer zone israel has been directing the buffalo's on this comes actually against the well of the people who live in this these areas especially the farming community. for the past seven months palestinians have been holding weekly demonstrations as part of the so-called great march of it along the israeli border well than two hundred palestinians have died during the protests with thousands injured here's a reminder of how it's been unfolding.
6:12 pm
i'm not. anti doping cheaps athletes have been meeting at the white house in a very clear and vocal stand against the world watchdogs decision to reinstate russia earlier this year a number of athletes gave t.v. pleas for the sport to be cleaned up while accusing russian competitors of stealing their medals and. picks up the story. not every day you would see tears shed inside the white house but that was the case with the emergency summit of several national
6:13 pm
anti-doping agencies which actually look like a on the ground meeting of rogue revolutionaries in this case the u.s. anti-doping agency the u.k. anti-doping agency a bunch of very famous athletes convene at the white house to discuss why does the recent decision to reinstate the russian anti-doping agency in its rights and to talk about the future of clean sport interesting enough but the world anti-doping agency claims it was not even invited to that meeting if water president athletes or others that were supportive of the decision had been invited they would have been able to bring perspective to the debate to explain why the decision to reinstate rosado was the right one for a clean sport the head of usada travis tygart denounced those accusations said that in fact the vice president of water was there but the overall language he was at that summit can give you a very clear idea of how toxic and political the fight against doping has become wilders leadership along with the i.o.c. are increasingly isolated with athletes and public opinion they need to wake up and
6:14 pm
smell the coffee step out from their ivory tower because athletes are demanding change and change is coming the president of water sir craig reedie was having a symposium of its own in london and he was asked the question whether there was any rift among the anti-doping watchdogs worldwide and he gave a very indefinite answer to that one government voted against the recommendation one. and one abstained. the people we hear from most often on a pretty selective group not of government the pretty selective group of national and you tube and organisations and those you see that i didn't reach. now what does this select group have any leverage on the situation of course you would expect the head of the u.s. anti-doping agency to use trump's method some may say it's blackmail in this situation that's exactly what he did speaking about the budget u.s. contributes the biggest amount of money to what is annual budget more than two
6:15 pm
million dollars the u.k. about nine hundred thousand dollars and travis tygart hinted that this budget may be pulled so it's about three million dollars of thirty four annual money that water has in its possession now you may ask yourself what's the bone of contention here obviously the world anti-doping agency's decision to reinstate. in its full rights as part of the world anti-doping family on september twentieth the headlines were vicious and there still are vicious some media are in total frenzy about that decision but the president of water craig really the recipient of biggest criticism following that decision spoke about that about his decision in london today. how can you describe. do you find writing public pleas to the russian authorities i copied not lectured to all of my community cian given shot just two conditions we will declare a result of complaint and then we get a letter from russia we stand and the executive committee.
6:16 pm
commented on it and a member of fifteenth water will gather for a big executive meeting in and they are there by johnny capital of baku and that's where we're expecting the fists will be flying high with sports and politics coming very close down the finish line. reporting from moscow. and every spent ten is cashmore from a sponsor electra who says that being with a worldwide problem that russia's born at the fall guy as politics begins to creep him anybody who knows anything about doping in sport knows that doping goes on in every country in the world where there are professional sports well russia is the fall guy here russia has been a convenient scapegoat and all the evils of the doping have been conducted over the past few years americans who have lost out on medals over the years on are complaining about this that and the other without naming any specific culprits
6:17 pm
but what they're saying is that the water as being too soft on russia basically awarded is an organization that was seen to be working in their not specifically their interests but in the world of sports interests but now seems to be a part of this intersection of politics and sport in other words what they have tried to retain that position of independence from all this but whether they like you or not they have been dragged into a political route i've been a big critic of why there are not a of the past couple of years so let's get that out of the way first of all but are now being a little bit more sympathetic than i usually am because it seems to me that what is damned if it does damned if it doesn't a few months ago before it agreed to reinstate resigned of the russian anti doping agency it was really getting it in the neck because people were saying well hang on
6:18 pm
you know you have this report that you basing all your job or you were decisions and justifications for those decisions are that is the mclaren report and it isn't transparently clear what evidence mclaren has gathered over the past several years so i thought i was amongst the critics who were attacking wide it for its lack of transparency now why there has done what i consider the right thing and readmitted russia back into world sport. americans are starting to grow. particularly soft on russia. there's news on ongoing efforts at peace talks between the taliban and the u.s. over the war in afghanistan five new representatives named by the militant group to attend the talks are all previous inmates of guantanamo bay two governors one minister a former commander and a deputy intelligence chief for priestly previously held in the u.s.
6:19 pm
run detention camp they were all exchanged for u.s. army sergeant bowe bergdahl taliban prisoner in twenty fourteen they've now been posted to the taliban's office in doha for negotiating an end to war with the u.s. and its allies which has lasted since two thousand and one a spokesperson for the group told r.t. that if the u.s. wants negotiations to be successful it has to change its strategy first. negotiations are at a low level initial stage this is because the americans are opposite side are fighting against if the other side will be honest in the negotiations and really change their strategy from fighting to negotiating then i'm sure we will reach a high level and there might be a good result despite seventeen years of war against the taliban in afghanistan the militant group is still going strong just over half of the afghan population lives in areas outside government control with about forty one percent of people under
6:20 pm
taliban rule that's according to a new study made by the foundation for defense of democracy afghan journalist latif he believes that all sides need to make concessions. the u.s. will you know they'll have to accept them because the truth is if you're talking about who has been negotiating you know all of these figures have been controversial figures they've had to have how do you are supported in being there and being allowed into ha and i think donald trump is very eager to figure out some way out of the on quagmire so you know if they had any kind of a protest they would have expressed it by now as much as the talabani is could be correct in their statement in saying that if the u.s. wants to i want to get real about negotiations they have to end the war the fighting but at the same time the taliban has to do the same thing we saw in the first ever cease fire three day cease fire we saw that the tall one were able to
6:21 pm
lay down their arms were able to come into the cities were embraced by the people and i remember after what happened a friend of mine who works in the office of the chief executive he said you know what this proves is that the afghan war could end in fifteen minutes if both sides agreed to it. a series of crimes in the us linked by many to right wing politics of becoming the baseline topic in news coverage stateside and with just days to go until america's public make their choice in the term elections rhetoric is getting fiery when c.n.n. host is clear as to who he thinks poses the real terror threat you have to stop demonizing people realize the biggest terror threat in this country is white men most of them radicalized to the right. don lemon's comments come after three recent hate crimes involving white suspects last saturday and eleven jewish worshippers were massacred at
6:22 pm
a synagogue in pittsburgh and the same week two black people were killed in a shooting at a supermarket in kentucky and fifteen of mail bombs were sent to high profile opponents of the u.s. president we had contrast in these from inside the u.s. from genesis to having farrah and a political activist and too much is right. i think that mr levin was actually stating facts there are twice as many terrorist incidents from white right wing terrorist in those people who submit to our what they're saying right now saying that the majority of the country are terrorists i'm pretty sure that if white men were the real problem in america we'd have a higher incident a higher rate of incidents with these types of terror attacks radicalized white people who are sending pipe bombs to people of the opposing party who just killed eleven jewish people who just killed two black people in kentucky because they couldn't get into a black church look at the result things deaths and look at the perpetrators d.n.a.
6:23 pm
and is doing everything they can to try to cast a negative light against anything trump in obviously the majority of the voting bloc in america is working class white men please incidents that are being painted they're having now are being painted as down from what is really not true people like don lemon are going to continue to perpetuate these false narratives in the hopes that maybe it can just brok people from what's actually going on in america which is a great thing right now economically numbers for people across all demographics including whites latinos and blacks in particular where black unemployment is a historic low bombs that were just sent did not kill anyone but they were still acts of terrorism and you can't deny that the person who was caught by the enemy i was a. donald trump supporter is a down note from supporters and if we are being honest really but here's a grudge or doubt about it all there is there is there is information that he
6:24 pm
doesn't matter he sat down and i took your work right he's a god only if we can read his minutes alex is up a bunch of different ways you can sit there in julius them and say that he specifically and donald trump supporter he was inspired to do that by donald trump we have to be honest about post reconstruction white terrorism against black people were not being honest about that we're not going to get to the root of the problem white supremacy founded the united states of america white supremacy exists in the united states of america and white supremacy is rising across the world called don lemon said this is just a further and a continuance of the division that was created in america under the eight year old ministration of barack obama. now in the meantime down flag at you can have a look at all our stories on our web site that's not a dot com sean thomas will take over the top of the hour with more but first here on out international is the kinds of problems.
6:25 pm
oh. look beautiful that's what i want to. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. given the way in which the last terrorists attacks were proclaimed structured using
6:26 pm
european logistics these as you can see there's a certain desire to change the way of life change the society even for this. evening soon just have to keep it as i live eat here good. fun. lena. i d. . be done. beyond. we have many things in this world and this isn't enough for everyone and why some peoples wants to take our things all the power just for themselves and that is the mother.
6:27 pm
i am not a terrorist i am at but it is. these days no matter where you are in the world the chances are you're being watched. in the deaths of innocent people just like any anywhere over ten thousand you probably won't have the slightest idea. and if you won't see it coming.
6:28 pm
in post nine eleven soon are you there. had been given a license to kill. villages their villages their houses the mud houses the bomb and sometimes the terrorists and then you see he is alive so who have to kill. children for a country for profit. how can you smile. i am ask eyes are welcome because a report thirteen hundred yeah i know i look pretty spiffy that's because we're shooting gonzo american pilgrimage yeah we're back on the road soon to be artsy first ep episode airing in the summer it's going to be awesome we've been shooting
6:29 pm
all day in the desert red rock thing is basic yes we're in las vegas those are the mountains behind us i think the sierra nevada red rocks certainly and you know of course it was las vegas where we saw the last great tragedy of a mass shooting dozens and dozens of people killed of course while we've been on this journey there are more mass shootings more mail bombings or at least fake mail bombings and it's been a pretty horrific journey while where in the past few weeks in american history i'm trying to decide whether the craziness factor is ratcheting up or whether it's staying somewhat concept to me it seems like things are getting crazier every week every month and i can't even keep track of all these shootings and and fake mail bombings and everything is kind of bleeding into one another and it just seems like a parallel life out there but i know everyone's really kind of nervous i know the
6:30 pm
security analysts vegas is very high there are checkpoints everywhere there's all kinds of double duty cops and there's we had i guess my mike pence was here earlier visiting and there was a huge security detail for him so just as a greater lines everywhere and so you just end up feeling like you're in this very very very long line is always a long line and how much longer can the lines get before things just totally break down i don't know but it feels like if either we're being desensitized to all these mass shootings or it's like nonstop p.t.s.d. it's just it's it's it's horrifying to. look at. so we're going to turn to some financial news because that's what we cover chis report market finance scandal and it's perhaps just as you know it's a little bit light relief i think as why i think the ugly october in.
