a dozen hostages from the grips of islamic state while the us a report reveals american aid money is ending up in terrorist pockets. and this is our team international. with us. and the french president warmly welcomed into paris on saturday ahead of celebrations commemorating the end of world war one appearing in front of the. appeared keen to show that the much talked about bromance between the two heads of state is still alive.

weekly review be. there was some tension leading up to the presidential tete a tete to just hours before trump lashed out on social media over micron's suggestion that the europe should create its own army artie's daniel hawkins telling the story for us. 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 former president micron of france has just suggested that europe to build its own military in order to protect itself from the us 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 it only hurts to have the european security to be be assured of just lines the united states and we need a much bigger version would you say are you sharing you know what might if he's

been doing this we would assure your true employees do so through you think the general way we can do it the best thing most decision 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. the pulling out of that agreement by the autumn states was roundly criticized with the false germany the u.k. issuing a statement of concern and regret. as well. the pulling out of the paris club as holds trump as well commemoration is the official reason of the gathering here in paris today but they're all keep pressing international issues to discuss behind the scenes the question is will progress be made on those issues will more stumbling blocks be created. or president puts him in german chancellor angela merkel are among the sixty high profile figures

expected to attend commemorations had to take place throughout the weekend the main memorial event will be on the eleventh of november the date of the shooting stopped at the arc de triomphe in the french capital and merkel nations were enemies or during the conflict earlier held hands together at the side where the arm assisted ending the war was signed on friday the british prime minister joined in honoring the fallen soldiers of the great war in which more than fourteen million people were killed. president trump has had his say over a c.n.n. journalist accused of inappropriate behavior out a white house press conference he defended a twitter posting that apparently shows reporter jim acosta pushing the arm of an internal as he tries to ask president follow up questions the u.s. is split over the issue not really with some claiming the video has been doctored in order to justify banning acosta from the white house the video was posted by

trump's press secretary sarah sanders and shows a close up version of events c.n.n. claims acosta never touched the intern and called the whole incident a threat to democracy here's how the situation at the presser unfold. one of the statements that you made in the tail end of the campaign do we go honestly i think you should let me run the country 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 should go all the way to do something like this. guy. 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 doctored 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 ring to 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 marginally 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. the whole rising 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 try 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 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 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. fighting continues in the key mini port of who data as the saudi led coalition attempts to wrest control of the city from the with the rebels. the u.n. says thousands of people are trapped in the procedure area the intensified fighting comes despite warnings from aid groups about a humanitarian catastrophe there denies any deliberate targeting of civilians the u.n. earlier issued a warning that children in the area are at imminent risk of death. whole day to day very much on the from lines of a brutal war a brutal war against children children have already suffered three men this leave

continue doing so so any escalation of the conflict affecting all day will have brutal 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 the millions of children throughout yemen who are counting on the supplies coming in through a whole day to help them to survive the un also stated that thirty thousand children die every year in the country from now nutrition describing the conflict as a living hell saudi arabia which has been leading the deadly campaign against the hutu rebels since two thousand and fifteen say that they are trying to reduce civilian deaths kingdom's foreign minister even posted on twitter that they stand for the children of yemen but the message has backfired as r.t.c.

only a part of comments. 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's 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 it was places to be as china right now because. the order skinny to the number of children minorities two million and the number of two that don't have access to 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 donor 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 yemen 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 pastas 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 this 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 all the 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 near the city of palmira the captives had been held for more than three months but have now returned home. oh i know it was it was zero zero zero zero zero zero. zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero was the. 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 terrorist own pockets as artie's broadcast of comments. american taxpayer money cash that is almost wholly 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 hayat 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 it's no surprise everyone n.g.o.s aid organizations civilians traveling through northern syria have to pay to pass checkpoints be that 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 king. it's worth millions of dollars to eligible beneficiaries including. fighters the report itself light on names and numbers perhaps for political reasons the fallout here could seriously damage and operations all we know is that millions of dollars in cash in aid have been funneled to al qaeda in syria and that's just what they've admitted found that 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 primitive. and i can i and these are n.g.o.s and he's working on the ground in syria basically

providing the prostate cancer and the corporation of the regime change current policy surely the or 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 earned 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. well still to come this hour we'll look at who the deadly wildfires a devastating california that's after a short break this is our.

stock buybacks are basically corbridge you know circling of money totally in a way that doesn't reflect the business they're not in the business of except for the business of fraud and this is rampant throughout the entire s. and p. five hundred it was that day of reckoning comes as it seems to be happening now you can see it in a parent drop of the market down forty or fifty percent you know in a week and people like oh my god what happened well it's going to linger for years because they're engaged in massive open the telephone. it's been seventy years since the united nations that don't did the universal declaration on human rights but in many places it remains a declaration no it's a reality how to bridge the divide between practice reaching.

welcome back this is our team international a massive wildfires in california have claimed the lives of at least eleven people and have been branded the most devastating in the u.s. and state's history more than two hundred fifty thousand people have been forced to flee their homes as the fast moving blaze rages through the area reports say the fire has destroyed the city of paradise and burned thousands. houses to the ground firefighters are working around the clock to contain the wildfires but they say they are concerned that intense winds and low humidity could fuel them for. the online encyclopedia with a pedia may be the go to resource to end your quiz night disputes but just how much

of the content is actually correct or at least you could have done of has more on the site's 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 we could pedia 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

to tear it 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 when 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 at its ability. there are firms that will help you get your story out there for a modest fee like this company with a straightforward name we keep our investigative journalist helen by new ski says it manages hundreds of sock puppet accounts 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 when the p.d.f. 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 of 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 the we one thing if it was disconcerted by a source like just sort of a trash read that 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 apples and amazons voice assistant siri and alexa draw information from the for their results as do some research is lazy journalists and students with the term paper do overnight and whoever throws more dollars into the furnace effectively has we compete in their pocket and by transitivity anyone who blindly trusts it. a spy saga is unfolding on the streets of britain at least according to one think

tank that says every second russian in the u.k. is working as surveillance operatives read his book or goes on her own investigative mission or for the show in case you missed. the british capital is teaming with by or as the neo conservative think tank the henry jackson society calls them russians. and the explosive putin sees and his it all report estimates could be as many as seventy five thousand so-called informants routinely helping. this is prized by spies by spies by of course this tour de force which is based on anonymous sources taking wild guesses isn't aimed at creating cheap headlines or fear mongering at all it simply aims to make clear that every other russian is probably a spy they could also be masquerading as normal people like us.

little people to. buy you a russian spy it's like. you do i look like yeah yeah. yeah but it is the real to be fearful really but of the russian marketing sites using their noses russian charm you know the russians for years so using the russian spies are in there i think so the. only real. well that does it for mail be back in about thirty four minutes with a full look at your news you watch much international stay with us. there's now a building around the break here in rwanda the isis terrorists. there
