but there was some tension leading up to the presidential to taste just hours before trump lashed out on social media over mccrone suggestion that europe could create its own army that no holkins takes up the story. president's strong crown i've always been fond of emphasizing that close personal friendship was well as the importance of the transatlantic alliance that was very much emphasized during my visit to the united states back in twenty seventeen but since then things haven't gone so smoothly over seventy world leaders have gathered here in the french capital to commemorate the hundredth anniversary of the end of the first world war trump marks his arrival by taking to twitter to say he felt insulted by none other than his colleague and friend and. president micron of france has just suggested that europa build its own military in order to protect itself from the u.s. china and russia very insulting but perhaps europe should first pay its fair share

of nato which the us subsidizes greatly the troubles of course referring to the interview given by micron earlier in the week in which she expressed support for a joint european army a military force to defend the mainland from a range of threats one of which was perhaps a surprise on that list we need a europe which defends itself better alone without just depending on the united states in a more sovereign manner when trouble did arrive in paris their leaders tried to smooth things over saying there was no problem with even micron's office admitting the remarks might have caused just a little confusion since i only heard you have the european security to be be assured of just lines the united states and we need a much bigger version of you would use it for you sharing you know mind if he's been doing this we want to show your true employees do things through you think which ever way we can do it the biggest thing in most issues could be something

that you both want so as the u.s. president arrived in the french capital it was all smiles handshakes and thumbs up for the cameras but this misunderstanding by far isn't the only sticking point between the two leaders the iran nuclear deal. pulling out of that agreement by the united states was roundly criticized. france germany the u.k. issuing a statement of regret not to mention. pulling out of the paris club. as well commemoration is the official reason for gathering here in paris today but. the national issues to discuss behind the scenes the question is progress be made on those issues. be created. president putin and german chancellor merkel sixty high profile figures expected to attend commemorations set to take place throughout the weekend the main memorial

event or behind. eleventh of november the date the shooting stopped at the arc de triomphe in the french capital micron. nations where enemies during the conflict held hands together at the site where the on this ending the war was signed on friday the british prime minister joint of money on the crown and honoring the fallen soldiers of the great war in which over fourteen million people were killed . the president has had his say over a sale and journalist accused of inappropriate behavior at a white house press conference he defended a twitter post that apparently shows reporter jim acosta pushing the arm of an intern as he tries to ask the president follow up questions the u.s. is issue with claiming the video has been doctored in order to justify from the white house the video was posted by trump's press secretary sarah saunders and shows a close up version of events c.n.n.

claims acosta never touched the unturned and called the whole incident a threat to democracy here's how the situation at the presser unfolded. one of the statements that you made in the killing of the campaign do we go. i think you should let me were in the crowd. tree you run c.n.n. all right and if you didn't well your ratings let me ask you that's an ask one of the other folks that stood out for me ma'am this was me that's enough was president the other folks that said now for me ma'am you are a rude terrible person. was this an inappropriate action aggressive or was it simply an accident well the answer to that depends what side of the political spectrum that you're on liberals and defenders of c.n.n. say that accosted did nothing wrong jim acosta clearly never touched that white house intern that's just a lie and what i saw was a battery not by jim acosta but by that young white house aide if you can use a fake video use a fake video if you go all the way do something like this. but

conservatives are rounding in on a cost accusing him of being violent practically shoving a woman who is just trying to do her job it just is it crosses a line you don't put your hands i don't want him a cost to sort of wrestling this young white house intern the video was posted originally by paul joseph watson who is the editor in chief of the right wing news outlet no one is in for wars now paul joseph watson defended himself and said that he simply zoomed in and that the quality of the video had gone down due to the re uploading it isn't don't say that it isn't sped up it isn't slowed down all i did was look at it again is this an example of symbol don't clip to change its meaning no it's virtually identical is it won't hundred percent identical no video compression is going to result in it looking more generally different so where is the truth americans are probably reminded of the famous dress controversy in the

photograph of one looked at it one way it was black and blue and another way it was white and gold depending on the eye of the holder or now we have a polarizing video clip people look at it they see the same seconds of visual recording but interpret it completely. differently it seems that as the political crisis escalates that americans literally no longer see things i there's probably never been a better example of. how the american public is divided we're all looking at the same exact video but we're seeing what we want to see democrats are looking at that video and seeing jim acosta absolutely not coming not touching this in turn republicans are looking at it and saying he touched her he laid hands on her and i don't really think that's how we should be looking at it we should try to put our politics aside and just try to see what happened to this is a press the press corps that's very hungry they don't get very many face to face chances to meet with the president as they did so they're all competing with each

other the room is big you know all their bosses want them to get a question and so it's not surprising that there's a scrum here. only seven thousand civilians have died in yemen since the beginning of the conflict that's from the u.n. high commissioner for human rights issue to iraq to warning that children any port city of. at imminent risk of death the statement comes after the sunday night coalition intensified activity in the area. whole day to day very much on the frome lines of a brutal war a brutal war against children children have already suffered three men this need to continue doing so so any escalation also comes late that affects things or they will have. consequences not only for the hundreds of thousands of children here

in the whole day who may be called in the middle of the conflict but will have consequences for de mille ians of children throughout yemen who are counting on the supplies coming in through who they. to help them to survive and also states are thirty thousand children die every year in the country from malnutrition describing the conflict as a living hell saudi arabia which has been leading a deadly campaign against the rebels there since twenty fifteen so they're trying to reduce civilian deaths the kingdoms of foreign ministry even post on twitter that they stand for the children of yemen but the message has backfired as. reports just so you know children in yemen some of whom have never seen peace in their life are not alone says who saudi diplomats on twitter but something seems to be wrong with the photo op and that tweet probably because the reality for most children

there looks more like this. or this there is more let's go back to what was under the photo it says your children are children is this really how you treat your children. these were the pictures now to some of the things that have been said by the u.n. children's fund experts in yemen every ten minutes a child dies from a disease that can easily be prevented yemen is one of the worst places to be as

china is right now because she sees the number of children minorities two million and the number of two that don't have access want the same with access to. the u.n. says since march twenty fifth being saudi led coalition air strikes have killed around thirteen hundred yemeni children and injured roughly the same number as unlikely as it sounds saudi arabia is actually yemen's biggest humanitarian daughter with hundreds of millions of dollars worth of aid this year alone just like an abusive partner who picks up the medical bills no wonder folks online didn't really by the way saudi diplomats are standing with yemen are these the children you plan to drop bombs on next should that not read we stand on the m. and just imagine the tweet of the nazi foreign ministry on september nineteenth thirty nine saying we stand with poland that's crazy. there may be people within

saudi arabia who certainly feel for the plight of yemenis at the moment and the best way that could be shown in real terms rather than with posters is if the bombing campaign on yemeni families stopped if we saw that then i would find it much easier to believe that there is sincere concern for the safety and lives of women and children there is no question that there are significant contributions to the humanitarian plan made by saudi arabia and the u.a.e. this year have been well received by the humanitarian community without that money we wouldn't have been able to pull it together with other funds from other countries and reach people with eight however this is not a you break it you buy it sort of arrangement that money doesn't come close to absolving the saudi led coalition of the of responsibility for the number of deaths being caused the illness and the long term damage being done to yemen as

a country. the syrian army says it has rescued over a dozen hostages from islamic state during a military operation in the city of palmira the captives had been held for over three months but have now returned home. was. no. other terror groups are also present in the war torn country and some of them even have access to foreign funding a recent report has revealed that u.s. aid money is actually lining the terrorists' own pockets jeff picks up the story american taxpayer money cash that is almost in the u.s. mindset inviolable money but has seen politicians. jailed for the slightest misuse

is ending up in the hands of al qaeda in syria now that's a sick twisted if anything a new report has found that millions millions of dollars in aid to syria has been funneled to terrorists since late twenty seventeen u.s. agency for international development office of the inspector general investigation have uncovered numerous instances of possible or confirmed diversions to armed groups in government in northwestern syria including time of year al sharm a designated foreign terrorist organization.

h.t.s. nusra front they have many names in short al-qaeda is wing in syria facts of the matter that they were benefiting from u.s. taxpayer money is no surprise everyone n.g.o.s aid organizations civilians traveling through northern syria have to pay to pass checkpoints beat and money in goods this is been a fact for years it's business one of the terrorists' main sources of funding worst of all it is assumed that these jihad ists have been able to infiltrate put their people in n.g.o.s humanitarian organizations from which they siphon money and aid to further their malign cause one investigation found that in n.g.o.s employees knowingly diverted thousands of u.s. aid funded food kits with millions of dollars to ineligible beneficiaries including terry are all sham fighters the report itself is light. names this lead damage and

you operate. you know is that millions of dollars in cash and in aid have been funneled to al qaeda in syria and that's just what they've admitted found funding has now been terminated but it's very interesting in this report is that the usaid watchdog does not name the n.g.'s now of course one of those primary n.g.o.s will be the white house probably one of the most. supportive and. he's working on the ground in syria basically providing the post-punk and there in the corporation of the regime change current policy surely the year i should first of all be left on economic sanctions and it should be if it's necessary be collaborating with the syrian government to provide aid to the areas where it's most needed because i don't expect this to happen it regardless it's a sick and

a sad joke on the american taxpayer trillions of their hard money spent on the war on terror originally on defeating al qaida and all the while they've been paying to feed and finance those very same jihad ists still to come a silent that the deadly wildfires devastating california and the curse of being able to edit any page down south to this break. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter to us is over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you want to be ultra rich eight point six percent market socrates' percent from last year some with four hundred to five hundred three

person that for sure you can pick one rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building two point one billion dollars a our industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need remember it was one person show you know for whom it was one and only. it's been seventy years since the united nations adopted the universal declaration on human rights but in many places it remains a declaration and not a reality how to bridge the divide between trying to sleep reaching. back to the program massive wildfires in california have claimed the lives of at

least nine people and been buying of the most devastating us state's history well than two hundred fifty thousand people have been forced to flee their homes as the fast moving blaze rages through the area ports say the fire has destroyed an entire city. of has is to the ground firefighters are working hard to contain the wildfires but say they're concerned that intense winds and low humidity could fuel them further. down the online encyclopedia wikipedia may be the go to. space. just how much of the content is actually correct either as you've done of has more now on the science inner workings. wikipedia is a free encyclopedia based on a model of openly editable contant the largest and most popular general reference work on the world wide web this is the definition of we keep pedia on wikipedia

wiki peavy is very different from something like blogs or trying to be an encyclopedia trying to be really solid stable kind of place ironically the founder of wikipedia is one of the few people who sees the encyclopedic value of his creation the openly editable bases of wikipedia is turning out to be more of a curse than a blessing according to a new study by mit in a third of article disputes editors can't agree with each other major issues include poorly articulated initial arguments excessive bickering during discussions and simple lack of interest from third party editors because topics may be too easy for instance some users who are very passionate about corn apparently have been fighting over this article for at least a decade which is hardly a surprise because forget anything as complicated as corn the world still can't

agree on the simplest simplest things like what date it is and come on america the whole month day here thing makes zero sense let me just get it out there on behalf of the rest of the world and you're welcome but silly disputes are far from the biggest problem we could pedia is facing over it's open a debilitating there are firms that will help you get your story out there for a modest fee like this company with a straight forward name we keep our investigative journalist helen by necessity says it manages hundreds of sock puppet account. which quietly added pages to favor the firm's thousands of clients sock puppets are basically fake accounts that are all run by one person but pretend to be multiple people so if there's a disagreement you want to have other people can come in and take your side because it's in that way it's there is some sort of democratic element to it but the wiki

p.r. skinless mostly because they were very openly advertising their services on this website but private firms are not the only entities with a story to sell the us government cares in a big way about what people on the internet right about it especially on wikipedia in two thousand and seven for example the cia and f.b.i. work used to sing articles about the u.s. invasion of iraq guantanamo bay and the page on one former cia chief the cia by the way didn't confirm the claims but kind the didn't deny them either and it's pretty easy to do that as far as outsourcing the third party it is pig guy and they were just being so obvious about it i mean they thought all is anonymous anybody can do it let's just edit it from our work computers and wherever that's like really bad upset so we one thing if it was disconcerted by a source like just sort of a trash read the bathroom wall of the internet i like to call it. but it's not it's considered this sort of holy oracle of truth and it's really anything but and the

reason why everyone wants to have their say and we compete is obvious it is indeed a universal reference to regardless of its actual reliability apple's and amazon's voice assistant siri and alexa draw information from there for their results to do some research is lazy journalists and students with a term paper due overnight and whoever through is more dollars into the furnace effectively has we competed in their pocket and by transitivity anyone who blindly trusts it. by saga is unfolding on the streets of britain at least according to one thing. tank says every second russian in the u.k. is working as surveillance operatives. on her own investigative mission for the show in case you missed it. the british capital is teeming with by or as the neo conservative think tank the henry jackson society calls them
