jewish organization in germany calls on the government to put on special integration classes for newly arrived muslim migrants and made a spike in anti semitic incidents and a photo of a palestinian state looking like a famous painting of the french revolution goes viral we speak to him about his experiences protesting at the gaza border where he was shot by an israeli so. hello there she is gone three pm here in moscow you're watching r.t. international now we'll start this hour with an update on the incident in the french city of dung we told you about last hour because a woman who was threatening to detonate a bomb at a local hospital has been arrested and reports are suggesting that she does have psychological problems previous reports that she taken hostages turned out to be false a police operation that was still under way and the area has been cordoned off the

incident isn't being treated as terror related. americans have cast their ballots in crucial midterm elections amid deep divisions in the country plainly results to indicate the democrats are set for gains that will see them respect control of the house of representatives while the republicans are set to keep control of the senate well donald trump has dubbed the result a tremendous success however democrats say it's actually a huge blow to the president. because of their restoring the constitution's jackson balances to the tramp and. burkas. took back the house of representatives. so tonight is a night to celebrate how far our movement has come. true for the lives. of others have announced the senate going into republican

control that's a huge moment a huge victory for the president seville testament to the fact that many voters want their state wide officials to be people who will continue to have this economic boom going are voting in favor of freedom and free markets this is the first time in eight years that the democrats have had control of the u.s. house of representatives now this is centrally means a split government and with control of the house of representatives the democrats will have the ability to launch more investigations into donald trump they'll have the ability to subpoena people and bring them before congress also they'll have the ability to get their hands on some key documents now people are asking could this mean impeachment now the way the u.s. constitution lays that out the democrats with control of the house will be able to bring impeachment charges against the president however it is the senate that would vote to remove the president in the event of an impeachment trial so the senate

remains solidly republican however at this point a government shutdown is a real possibility because in order for legislation to pass the u.s. congress both houses have to sign on to it so with the democrats having the ability to shut down legislation they could essentially shut down the government as has happened under the obama administration and appears that while the senate remains republican the democrats seem to have maintained and won control of the u.s. house of representatives come up and reporting now larry king also shared his thoughts on the midterms with the american. but we're going to have that holds a split government which at this point in this country might even be healthy. alas the last two years have been the turbulent to say the least this is an important election night live through a lot of them but i've never been through one like this trump prompted all of this note up from prompted wallace's was an election for against strong. probably he

controlled the media over the last two years it's almost at a point there's never been anything like this in history ever an o'donnell for forty years the one thing mistake you made stacy and you make very few in your life donald trump does not have a bruised ego. remains constant in other words what he will say is a couple of things democrats stole as in the house why are you notice that we kept the senate because most of my time was devoted to the senate he will take credit for whatever doesn't matter what happens if he lost the senate he would have blamed the world we've never seen anything like this in politics ever now that i'm trying to picture. fifty years from today they put up till portraits of american presidents right now i'm trying to see washington. jefferson.

rose. very good. do you just never was president and so what we have used probably shouldn't things but we have a we have a country and. a lot of trouble with a record breaking thirty eight million people voted early the excitement over the midterm resulted in two with some not even getting to cast their votes some stations opened late in chandler a suburb of phoenix the polling station there was closed due to a failure to pay rent although it was later reopened by local officials elsewhere one new york polling station still technical difficulties four hundred people there also found themselves trapped in a long queue after scanners and machines broke down people claimed only one machine was working and then in south carolina one man had to vote shirtless apparently that's because the state does not allow anybody to display any campaign material

within seventy meters of the polling station he was forced to take off his trump shirt despite the fact the president of the and a candidate. well the run up to the midterms saw the reemergence of meddling theories but former f.b.i. agent clint watts claims it's americans themselves rather than external actors who are spreading lies and steering a vision online the most everyone's witness the playbook playing now they don't need russia so much they've learned the tactic is devastatingly effective. well ahead of the midterms though social media giants as well as the u.s. intelligence community were working hard to prevent only foreign meddling mainly from russia the us security agencies even had this warning for voters on the face of the event. americans should be aware that foreign actors and russia in particular continue to try to influence public sentiment and vote perceptions

through actions intended to sow discord you could bet that had the democrats lost you know didn't win the house tonight if they watched the second day of the senate went republican and if they and the house stayed republican you would already be hearing russia russia russia they did something we need hearings they fixed it they did this they did that i promise you you would have heard that but now that the democrats certain house they can't really cry that can day because. there's no basis for it but they can't even make a basis for it because they actually want something so it's hysteria it's been hysteria since day one to discredit donald trump that donald trump is in. you know a pocket that donald trump is indebted to putin putin's going to blackmail him and it's an illegitimate president see that that's what this is all been about from day one make no mistake. now another news today chimneys leading jewish

organizations calling for special anti semitism classes for muslim migrants it comes amid a spike in hate crime targeting changed peter all of his more. jewish community leaders in germany say they want to see integration classes for migrants that focus on them saying that this could help stem a rise in anti-semitic incidents in the country many of these people have been shaped by regimes in which anti semitism is essential and the jewish state is denied the right to live to prevent the worst scenario we need to tailor the integration courses to these people much more preferably by country of origin the official statistics back up a rise in crime in germany just over four hundred were reported in the first half of twenty eighteen knots up ten percent on the same period last year the vast majority of these were committed by neo nazi and far right groups but the

leadership of germany's foremost jewish organization paints a bleak picture of the future saying he sees more problems coming from migrants one of the most shocking cases of twenty eighteen was caught on camera shows you just the media should do you think showing a nineteen year old syrian molly going to be using two men from berlin for wearing a kippah going as far as to attack the men with his belt jewish leaders have cautioned against wearing the traditional skull cap so as not to draw attention in berlin we've seen reports of jewish children becoming the target of anti semitic bullying in school and this summer ten people were arrested after a brawl in a berlin park which started after one group of people from syria snatched away a star of david necklace worn by a jewish man also from the same country over one million refugees and migrants event in the country since twenty fifteen and as chancellor merkel points out some

have contributed to the problem of noir we have a new phenomenon as we have many refuges a man whom there are for example people of arab origin who bring in another form of anti-semitism into the country a fortune. the antecedent is what existed before that i met with burly rabbi yehuda take that and i asked him how bad the situation is and if he agrees with extra integration classes for migrants focusing on anti semitism the problem with anti-semitism in germany today is unfortunately growing there is much worry about the developments in germany especially due to the fact that many refugees have come from countries which they were breastfed with hate towards israel and towards jewish people of course we welcome everybody but at the same time being a refugee doesn't only have merits it also has obligations it's not something that only affects the jewish people this affects all people that honor and respect

democracy and want to live in a society which respects all people so we have to understand that this is a very serious top agenda issue also for the leaders of the german government and we strongly encourage them to take it in that manner this week sees the eightieth anniversary of kristallnacht or the night of the broken glass when jewish homes and businesses and places of worship were set ablaze by nazis with the nascent support of out of hitler's government while the situation in today's germany is thankfully a long way from out of the one nine hundred thirty s. that period of history continues to cast a long shadow peter all of our r.t. berlin. now a photo of a palestinian protester has gone viral for its similarities to a french painting of the french revolution called liberty leading the papal protest in the image has now become a symbol of resistance. does

it look familiar especially to the french reminds me of liberty leading the people by huge indoor quad a very powerful image. a level of i'll go to the great module return demonstrations to live with dignity and to take back on land that i will never leave i will go every day and god willing our dreams be achieved. i put the flag down and started throwing stones with my sling shot so the shot may

only carry the sling shot in the flag and i was hurting them a troll and they were facing off with weapons. that. do this in a great march of return demonstrations flag in one hand sling and the other when i saw my photo i was moved to go back. that has been widespread criticism of israel's use of excessive force against gaza protesters israel though insists that it's the palestinians who are inciting the fallenness the so-called great march return demonstration at the border has been taking place for over seven months now and at least two hundred ten palestinians have been killed with more than eighteen thousand people wounded. still had few the south serbian footballer faces a backlash after refusing to wear a symbol of remembrance for foreign soldiers. well have a look at these sales on that just after the break.

what holds us do something to. put themselves on the laws. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. for something want to be rich.

that's it right to be close this is what the forecast free of all people get. interested falls in the waters of our. first six. welcome back now a star midfielder one of england's top football clubs has received harsh criticism on social media after refusing to wear the traditional remembrance puffy ahead of armistice day which marks the end of world war one in saturday's match munched united the. decided not to wear the flower and explain why on instagram. i recognize fully why people wear poppies i totally respect everyone's right to do so and i have told sympathy for anyone who has lost loved ones due to conflict

however for me it is only a reminder of the bombing of serbia in one thousand nine hundred nine on reflection i now don't feel it is right for me to wear the poppy on my shirt or the poppy was first introduced as a remembrance symbol for those who died in the first world war however now its meaning has been extended as a symbol of remembrance for all foreign soldiers actually irish if he picks up the story now from the serbian capital belgrade. it's not every day you see a professional footballer take a hard political stance but that's exactly what manchester united and. did regarding wearing the poppy well you would think that this would pacify all the tension because it was heavily criticized for not wearing this poppy but yes some people took to social media to deliver a lot of abuse towards the serbian player now some were suggesting that he should be injured others were saying that he should leave the country and play elsewhere but in serbia his decision received some price appreciate it decision politics

shouldn't be involved into sports i would do the same from this country. has suffered more. twenty years from this. country were here is one of these or a source in english not to park the bed. we don't like not the park not the soldiers but even in england itself is explanation left very mixed response some people actually defended him and said they respected his choice after all he was not even an english player but say that to stoke city's james maclean from republic of ireland who also refused to wear a poppy and got so much abuse coming towards him that it just you know the social media literally exploded with vile things said about the republic of ireland international play and he even had somewhat of a confrontation with the fans at one of the recent stock city's games so all this

basically raises a big question what is wearing a poppy in england a symbol of remembrance or something that you can use as a stick to hit a player if you refuses to wear it based on his nationality well we got reaction in london to the football decision not to wear a puppy. if he lives and works in britain. so he obviously has a great personal feeling and i think you just have to respect his previous if you. think that really sometimes you should swallow your own personal opinions just to show respect for the people around him and his family his even his team to show respect he should i feel like. i wish we'd just stop making wars and celebrating the fact that men die they more that's not something that we will find there anyway

. and it has been rocked by anti-government protests. since april more than three hundred people have been killed in them said coding to local human rights groups investigative group redfish the country. we're trying to understand what's happening exactly at the moment i mean it's very difficult to keep up with the rival demonstrations. nicaragua's civil unrest began in mid april twenty eighth and has left school or state in hundreds injured it began after the government of president daniel ortega proposed social security reform protests following in the government's proposals but the violence continues . to nicaragua now where thousands of people are fleeing violence as the government

crackdown on pro-democracy protesters the international media have given widespread coverage to these student videos in opposition protests so on the way right now to meet with the student activists she was our university when the initial protest movement began in april but she soon found herself being threatened by the opposition. when i say seen. then call me as i made out. back and move. your home and say i suspect africa and i had a what and i mean that i have no idea how they are all part of where i knew that i don't that. the national endowment for democracy any d. has provided millions of dollars to the groups leading government operations in

nicaragua today in twenty seventeen for example the ne d. provided an anonymous organisation with eighty six thousand dollars to foster a new generation of democratic youth leaders the international media lays the blame for the civil unrest squarely on president. and his government and highlight opposition voice while providing little to no context of the role of influential actors like the us government nearly forty years later we're still trying to overthrow or take. that i don't know why you think it will do. well as he has asked the national endowment for democracy foundation for their

views on the situation although so far we haven't received a reply. you've been watching our say that's how all the news is looking so far today on this channel we're back with more from you in just over half. when lawmakers manufacture come sentenced to public wealth. when the ruling classes can protect themselves. with the financial

merry go round certainly the one percent. we can all middle of the room signals. the real news. in twenty forty you know bloody revolution of you tube clip the demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful political protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it just always i mean your list book video of me in the new bill is that i mean you split needle the former ukrainian president recalls the events of twenty fourteen. of those who took. it invested over five billion dollars to assist ukraine in these and other goals that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. taxed

as a by their. survival guide stacey let's learn a salad fill out let's say i'm not so i guess any or at least trying to grease some banks have to fight wall street spot thank you for helping. sure that's true sell out debt slavery. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics school business i'm show business i'll see you then. greetings and salutation. on a chilly tuesday evening with

a full moon high in the sky here at this house of big gambles and long shots the political world here in the united states was shaken to its very core because it was here at canterbury park in minnesota that the former wrestler a hollywood actor and the mayor of brooklyn park minnesota jesse ventura shocked the world and became the thirty eighth governor in the state of minnesota today and watching the hawks we will look back on that historic win and take a look at his time in office and the true changes that he implemented and the things he fought for in his battles with the political establishment and the mainstream media so take a journey with us as we celebrate the twentieth anniversary of governor jesse ventura. no one no sixty three but the thing i like feels that this would be analyzed from the bottom would. be just like

this with three this little. this is. what caused me to run for governor i kind of french myself to help us celebrate and remember the twentieth anniversary of the political campaign that shocked the world. joined by several key figures in his campaign. political strategist. running mate. school teacher made. and finally the communications director for the administration. really was the one that got me interested in the third party movement because i've always been anti democrat and republican and in my neighborhood all of

a sudden i started to see nice barkley. barkley barkley and. barkley. at the time. i realized that the majority of the. great many of them were disgruntled democrats and republicans who feel the system is failing and they want something new. i felt that way also in. the long story shorter. walk in it so we're walking. crazy but they're going crazy for me. he said see.

you know it's you know it was my hometown it was a little ferris thing. but the north completely really did. and this was that i just wonder whether this popular would translate into popular and that's where the idea i'm a hand in that's where the thought started we had a great big budget surplus because the economy in the ninety's was super strong and because of the taxation rate in minnesota they took in billions of dollars more than they needed and they spent it and i was doing talk radio and i was just outraged over that how dare them that's the people's money it's not fair is just because they have an excess doesn't mean their kids in the candy store and so when they spent the money i got pretty vocal overt and i made

a statement on the radio one day i said maybe i ought to run for governor you could sense the feeling out there that people were looking for something else and weren't getting it the center's never represented it's always the left on the right on the far wings and there and then the center is made to pick at quote the lesser of the two evils i guess when you get a candidate that occupies the center the left and right them can make inroads and i knew and plus i knew that that we needed to get. voters who did normally vote so i figured there's about twenty four to twenty five percent that are already voted for and independent with well as is ok with them what we have to do and you're right we had to expand the a leg.
