right now four pm moscow time in the headlines from the stories in the week may's ministerial meltdown the british prime minister battled to save a plan and our own government in a week of resignations recriminations and second referendum calls for last game piece to consider the national interest and give it back to the withdrawal agreements represents a huge and damaging failure that deal that is already dead in the water you know the revelations of the we've just gone newly declassified documents reveal that the cia experimented with the so-called truth serum on prisoners who resisted

other enhanced interrogation techniques plus. israeli warplanes unleashed massive air strikes on gaza in response to hundreds of missiles being fired from the own place. hello welcome and this is all it international it's all around of the big stories of the last seven days with me kevin first it was a tense week was in it for the british prime minister trees of may she fought to weather that huge bricks and storm but it resignations and growing calls for a vote of no confidence the party meltdown happened after she unveiled her e.u. divorce draft plans on wednesday the stock ultimatum. the choice before us is clear this deal all leave with no deal all the or no bricks it at all well within hours of revealing her draft breck's it plan to cabinet

a status of blue to try to secure its full backing to members abruptly quit including notably the brics it secretary himself but that was just the start in total seven members of the reason may's government resigned she has had to face a three hour grilling by m.p.'s to. does the prime minister's still intend to put a false choice to parliament between her a botched jail or no jail and the labor party have only one intention that is to frustrate the trade. you are not delivering the brakes people voted for and today you will lose the support of many conservative m.p. . millions of voters across the country we can choose to leave with no deal we can risk no bricks it at all or we can choose. i. or or we can choose to unite

and support the best deal that can be negotiated this deal prime minister comes before us today trying to sell us a deal that is already dead in the water the reason why the people of this country are so fed up is because they've been made so many promises none of which have been delivered on because they cohen's be delivered to them yes difficult and sometimes uncomfortable decisions have had to be made i understand fully that there is some who are unhappy with those compromises but this deal delivers what people voted for and it's in the national interest. and we can only secure it if we unite behind the agreement reached in cabinet yesterday it's been a series of cabinet resignations government minister resignations parliamentary private secretary resignations even the vice chairman of the conservative party itself has resigned so it's very hard to see how someone who is dug

in behind great deal which seems to be almost friendless this. failure is an orphan and success has a thousand parents world this deal look very much like an orphan to me today she's come up with this withdrawal agreement and nobody wants it doesn't satisfy the remain as who don't want to leave anyway and it doesn't satisfy the leavers because we don't really leave so no one's going to be a bit happy about this i don't believe she can get it through parliament and of course it also has to come through the european parliament ukip any piece will vote against it i think other groups will vote against it here so i'd be surprised if it actually got through this parliament either people are deserted the tory party are seen on twitter people tearing up their cards and taking photographs so this deal doesn't actually satisfy any body so more endless trouble really around parliament this week during may's breaks it in our tease online series in case you missed it

by the way polly boycott took an alternative look at events going on there. they want something quick on this. really because they have a. chaos in westminster as the cradle of britain's parliamentary democracy trying to get to grips with something to do with great things. now this time the thing to do with it is very serious and we know this because important minutes to do with great sit down. which they should all be including the one in charge of greg's it was actually a display of confidence in himself. and. look at any one minute sleep with me.

looking. at these images of lehman brothers bricks a. lot of. the noise at the end of the backstop is. basically we could. go to given the e.u. a backstop. for the shovel oh seven eight eight seven. there are five hundred pages of something to do with brags that the person elected representatives are hearing inside this called a masterpiece. political class is it. these guys no means yes of course tending to know all about it in fact they're talking about what's happening in that we're not watching it it's fair to

say that right now everyone's talking about it without having read it with a little bit like the bible. war and peace. susie what's the back story on the bomb not just all summer a waltz the mike stone. excuse me what's an old niland you do to a little bunched up a short is it you don't you be using to the my job toss the questions and. go point where the buck stop is it's a cost of. event that border between the republican guard of the northern island you read more about it on our site dot com. but serious matters are the stories we brought you in the week newly declassified documents reveal the cia program to develop a so-called truth serum that involves drugging prisoners who are able to withstand other interrogation techniques apparently project medication was previously

undisclosed element of this program in which in addition to the physical and psychological torture that the cia was engaged in several ca doctors decided to try to figure out whether they could also find some kind of truth serum that they would use against people's will to inject them with and make them talk our senior correspondent has more on the cia interrogation program and i would evolve. it wasn't an isolated case or to an accident or oversight was government sanctioned systematic ordered they were manuals instructions on how to inflict pain that's not a secret in the immediate aftermath of nine eleven we tortured some folks see torture isn't only frowned upon because it's evil vile it's also ineffective problem number one imagine the cia's surprise when those people that they were putting through hell resisted grew used to it enhanced interrogation

techniques were begun within six hours these progressed from attention flaps and walling to confinement in both large about five hours and small about one hour book says and friendly to the waterboard a.z. seems amazingly resistant to waterboard what happened was that the victims and this is problem number two adapted to suffering cia's own words the prisoners began to see certain torture procedures as escape a break from other harsher measures what a conundrum here having slapped beaten confined and water boarded these people they were getting results so they opted for something new something like a truth serum problem was and this is problem number three seriously illegal there were at least two legal obstacles approved bush and his medical

experimentation on prisoners and a ban on interrogation or use of mind altering drugs the question became moot since the legal department did not want to raise another issue with the department of justice problem number four revulsion cia tortures according to the torturers themselves the doctors others who were present were horrendous to watch the whole. spirit's responsible medical officer did was visually and psychologically very uncomfortable for all those witnessing it the problem was so widespread and so serious that employees had to be counseled and then checked to make sure they were still all right in the head after everything they had seen and done and they began only hiring people who had a stomach for torture let me be clear on what the cia doctors role was here when the cia torturers were torturing a prisoner for example by bach by waterboarding him say doctors would medically

resuscitate the prisoner when he would become unconscious from too much torture what they did was allow the cia to continue torturing people over and over problem number five a lot of problems here journalists activists and juice they kept prime kept sniffing around digging up details and publicizing everything over the government the cia they resisted see for example how the document that revealed all of these looked initially when released under the freedom of information act in two thousand and sixteen not a lot of information in it it's almost like two fingers to the press sometimes these court battles took years but they got it out eventually. ancient history you might say we knew most of this plus it happened in the early

two thousand lessons have been learned and this torture will never happen again. you think they said what do you think about waterboarding i said i like it a lot that all to get stuff out. this is the between don't trumpet a man or macross hitting the skids rather after the u.s. president lashed out at the wake of his french counterpart it was on twitter on choose day what happened they don't know could meeting in paris during commemorations marking the centenary of the first world war armistice trump turned on micron over his intentions to create a europe wide army. but it was germany and world was one and two how did that work out for france. they were starting to learn german in paris before the us came along pay for nato or not

. france makes it very hard for the us to sell its wines into france and charges big tariffs not fat must change the problem is that emanuel suffers from a very low approval rating in france twenty six percent and unemployment rate of almost ten percent. make france great to get. competition out but is it will be we need a europe who can defend itself for long moreover without depending only on the us you know we did exhibits greater sovereignty. and we are. losing you. prefer.

well see raise the glass at the end they're talking of which as well as taunting the french president on twitter donald trump also threaten to whine war too he claimed america's wines were just as good as in bordeaux and the rest or that left a sour taste for many in france so we put the tipples to the test quite literally in paris. compulsion. and the road will say lou rawls who live on the throne will we know that you've got to move to reduce resurrect the paulson plan for the spill wasn't. if you don't do . it in your book really the whole thing coming. and going on i would say our pool group. would be we would write that quote but the other big liberal had to do most of it a little bit more with the lives of the dizziness don't debate this much they tell

it exactly. and i think. that's a little bit silly novoa to be. in there like oh a little. disappointed that the bank would use it which she did so the verdict is in canada is quickly clear parisians preferred the wine for making us all her well maybe for once the dawn world has been vindicated as the wind from his country seems to have trumped that from france so on this occasion from paris we admit defeat but nevertheless we will always weighs a gloss and say so and say show that you can ski otty paris a lot of arguably the best job in the wake of the new stories coming out that we brought you an exchange of fire between israel militants in gaza hundreds of strug from both sides really kicked off and also to ukraine's far right parties summer

camp with children taught to kill the tree we'll tell you about that after the break. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics sport i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. or it didn't happen this is the phrase that has become a mantra for many people as more and more people get involved in visualizing the world around them is the story we tell ourselves about selves changing. i don't think the democrats very much moved to negotiate with the republicans or

president so i think people are going to have to acknowledge that the united states over the next couple years is going to be consumed even more so by or internal our total bickering in affairs. the more the news of the week on monday and for any fighter jets struck palestinian targets after militants in gaza launched rockets and mortar shells it appears to be the most intense escalation of hostilities in the region since two thousand and fourteen at least seven palestinians and one israeli were killed many more wounded .

i. then israeli defense minister of a deliberate man quit on wednesday in protest of the garza ceasefire which he described as a capitulation to tara the un security council held an emergency meeting on the conflict the day before in which the israeli representative and the palestinian observer were at loggerheads security council must only condemn hamas we condemn in the strongest possible terms this aggression by israel there is no such a thing both sides there is hamas that attacks and fires the result of this blockade which is immoral and illegal and it is inhumane and we will continue to take any measure no measure necessary to protect our people that this round of violence was

created as a result of a botched. bizarrely military operation in the gaza strip it's very interesting for me to hear the israeli ambassador speak about the gaza collation all of the victims except one of this round of escalation where palestinian all of the victims were inside gaza and not outside of the gaza strip israel bombed a t.v. station it bombed residential buildings it leveled them to the ground those are acts that are acts of terror because they did terrorize two million palestinians the latest round of escalation started because of a botched israeli undercover operation three kids. meters deep inside gaza that's how the escalation started with the israeli forces killing seven palestinians. ukraine's far right freedom parties organized

a children's summer account pool though to some it might look like a boot camp john is from the associated press news agency visited the site where youngsters live under strict rules to learn how to be combat ready. now that's what i call a legit summer camp. both of you. early morning wakeup calls. oh yes roy. chance that kids will remember for the rest of their lives. catching march. welcome to the temper of will summer camp in western ukraine it's pretty much a boot camp hidden in the forest the people who set it up are from the national

socialist svoboda or freedom party so who can get enrolled officially it's for teens but a.p. journalists who went there say they saw children as young as eight here they're being taught how to kill. you know they can still. call then out of system but i just don't know what i was. supposed to call fun things. with this mostly. but not only do they get to learn how to take down those who adults are calling russian invaders the kids are also taught to stand up to what the instructors see as degrading trends in the west. you should. sell them.

first. but. what may seem as an ugly display of far right shod brain washing appears to get full support from the local administration well earlier this year kiev splashed some of its budget on youth projects the goal is to prop up what they call a national patriotic education some of these projects are run by the stream far right. even the nato backed atlantica council think tank tried to raise international wariness with this article and indeed we didn't write that amnesty international's pointing out the issues more than just critical ukraine is sinking into a kill sort of uncontrolled violence posed by radical groups and the total impunity

principally no one in the country can feel safe under these conditions and if you're wondering if any of this could actually spill beyond ukraine well just lately and f.b.i. agents criminal complaint said ukrainian neo nazis were believed to have trained white supremacists in america just wait till some of these youngsters grow up. in a particular report as a footnote to this story with bear in mind in january crane passed a law recognizing russia as an aggressor state last week the ukrainian vice prime minister said that his country is trying to build a strong democracy whereas he went on to say the kremlin supports populist nationalist movements spoke to journalist brian mcdermott about the thought he's been monitoring the coverage of the ukraine conflict since interrupted four years. believes we may have reached a turning point. i'm just shocked that it's finally been reported in the west i mean associated press have gone in there obviously

a syndication agency so obviously you know their copy that has to be reported in other mediums i'm pleasantly surprised that you know outfits like the washington post notably have covered it although some of the usual suspects you know the guardian and outlets i doubt if ignored the story once again but that's not surprising but it's good that for the first time you know many readers in western countries are finally learning something about what's really going on in western ukraine particular with these nationalist groups the way things work in the west is that you need pressure groups you know think tanks to kind of get on these bandwagons and kind of you know almost force the agenda and what's very interesting is here we've got children you know schoolchildren minors being trained to hate being trained to kill being trained to fight and where is amnesty international where is human rights watch i mean they're not interested i mean where is the american embassy what is supposed moral leadership you know lashing out against this where the british embassy the similar questions we asked of the way to some of the stories we covered a snapshot of the big headlines from the last seven days in the weekly there for you there it was because this sunday afternoon it's taken on to twenty five minutes

past. what you just enjoy the rest of the week. what politicians do something. they put themselves on the line and they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or somehow want to. have to go right to be precipices like that before three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters in the house. they're sitting. in a world of big partisan movies 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. and shouting past each

other that 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. when we all make this manufactured consensus instead of public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. when the final merry go round lifts only the one percent. that's not going all middle of the road signals. mean real news. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the us has over one

trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen. did. eighty five percent of global will you want to be ultra rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar ai industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one one business showed ford to miss the one and only boom but. it's hard to imagine the decades after the war a nazi don't it was still active rich in the nineteen seventies crittle had as the chair of its board a man convicted of mass murder and slavery at ash was a german company develops into demise

a drug that was promoted as completely safe even during pregnancy it turned out to have terrible side effects what has happened to my baby is anything but. you know she said she's just got choked up minix of it a mind victims have to this day received no compensation they never apologized for the suffering that not only want the money i want the revenge. nobody could see coming that false confessions would be that in the spot the wish to fall for. had any interrogation out there what you'll see is threat promise threat promise threat why a lie a lie the process of interrogation is designed to put people in just that frame of mind make the most comfortable make them want to get out and don't take no for an answer don't accept their denials she said if i would. say i stayed there i would

be home by that time the next day there's a culture on accountability at the least. officers know that they can engage in misconduct that has nothing to do with solving our crime. or the.

parts of the. real. deployed cause i felt like. trusting the choice. to be doing to continue. if before. the crash. the idea since it's new to me it's just going to step up but that's the decision that's kind of entering upon us but a. century of minnows. now for most of the but i'm not. the buffalo we're just somebody that's on the hopelessness of some.
