subscribed to roughly. twelve euros fifty per month. the week's biggest stories from the international maze ministerial in the british prime minister battles to save. government in a week of resignations recriminations and second referendum calls the 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 also in the headlines for most this week newly declassified documents revealed the cia experiments with the so-called truth serum on prisoners resisted other enhanced interrogation techniques plus.

radio warplanes unleashed massive air strikes on gaza in response to hundreds of missiles being fired in from the old place. over a good evening and welcome to alt international it's all rather but the big stories of the last seven days with me. first and what a tense week it was for the british prime minister to resume a she fought off to weather the storm by cabinet resignations growing calls for a vote of no confidence the party meltdown happened after she unveiled her e.u. divorce draft plans on wednesday with a stark ultimatum. the choice before us is clear this deal all leave with no deal or no bricks it at all within hours of her revealing her draft plan to

cover that extensively to try to secure its full backing to members abruptly quit including the bricks that secretary himself but i was just a start in total seven members of to reserve may's government resigned she also to face a three hour grilling by m. pays does the prime minister's still intend to vote a false choice to parliament between her a botched jail or no jail she and the labor party have only one intention that is to frustrate correct trade if. 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 breaks it all or we can choose. i was. for 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 he's because they've been made so many promises none of which have been delivered on because they koans 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 is 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 resignation the government minister resignations parliamentary private secretary resignations even the vice chairman of the conservative party itself has resigned saw it's very hard to see how someone who is dug

in behind a deal which seems to be almost friendless this is a failure is an orphan and success has a thousand parents world this breaks that 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 under it we don't really leave so no one's going to be happy about this i don't believe she can get it through parliament and of course it also has to come for 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 i've seen on twitter people tearing up their cards and taking photographs so this deal doesn't actually satisfy any body. drama in and around parliament again this week the.

most role in all cheese online series in case you missed it polly boy could took an alternative look through the vents going on behind those hollowed walls. there was something quick. if you read it because i have the. chaos in westminster as the cradle of britain's parliamentary democracy trying to get to grips with something to do with rights that. now this time the thing to do with race is it is very serious and we know this because important ministers to do with gregg's it which they should all be including someone in charge of gregg's it was actually a display of confidence in himself.

and if you. look at any one leader minister. say. look you've got a. minority the backstop is. basically we could. go given the e.u. our backstop. should of zero seven eight eight seven zero. there are five hundred pages of something to do with brags that that person elected representatives are hearing inside this called a masterpiece. politically correct isn't it that. these guys. have. i pretend to know all about it in fact

they're all talking about what's happening. we're not watching it it's fair to say that right now everyone's talking about it without having read it a little bit like the bible. or impedes. c.z. once the banks start the ball i'm not sure it's all right. once the mike starr. excuse me was not an either. or does it you can only really think of my job to ask the questions don't. you tell him what he should do to quit mental refresh and why not if you want a back stop because it's to prevent a border between the republic of ireland and northern ireland you read more about it on our site r.t. dot com of course. if you classified documents reveal the cia program to develop a so-called truth serum and involve 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 gaged and several 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 in the week oh senior correspondent more goes to have brought us more on the cia interrogation program and how it evolved. 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 finally 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 problem number three seriously illegal

there were at least two legal obstacles approved mission because 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. experienced 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 ca doctors role was here when the

cia tortures were torturing a prisoner for example by bought 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 or 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 don't think it started out with me tiles were supported by us as it was the bromance between donald trump emanuel mccrone hit the skids a bit this last week after the us president lashed out at his french counterpart on twitter and i don't choose day that of the nor could meeting in paris tour in commemorations marking this and tina of the first world war armistice trump turned of micron over his intentions to create a europe wide army. but it was germany in world wars one and two how did that work out for france. they

were starting to learn german in paris before the u.s. came along pay for nato not. punish makes it very hard pressed to send its winds into france and charges big tariffs not fact 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. one petition out but is it will be we need to use whom you can defend it so for a little more room with no depending only on the us you know we did exhibits greater sovereignty. and you. prefer.

they could hardly raise a glass as well as taunting the french president twitted donald trump also threaten the wine war he claimed america's wines are just as good design bordeaux and the rest of them although that left expect so a taste for many in france so we literally put the temples to the test in paris. and the course of. the road for sale. for now that they're all going to get through to the us was a local steel plant it still was. if you build. it in your. little to your local think of it. i would say our group. would be. that close

but the other big thing that they have to do most of it. which is you don't get very much to tell it is. a little bit in a hole. in the wake of the. whole thing that the bank will be stuck with. so the verdict is in hyundai's forcing clear parisians prefer the whining from the us all her well maybe for once the don't rule 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. otty paris. now come up after the break in more the week stories we brought you away in the last seven days there was a really serious exchange of fire between israel and militants in gaza again

hundreds of strikes from both sides coming up and also ukraine's far right party someone children are taught to kill just a couple of the stories ahead here on the weekly. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you long for the 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 a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need

to remember is one one doesn't show you can't afford to miss the one and only. pay for it didn't top ten 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 how is the story we tell ourselves about ourselves changing. i get this out international live from moscow this sunday evening where it's not coming up to eighteen minutes past six next we go back to monday and israeli said the fighter jet struck palestinian targets militants in gaza launched rockets and mortar shells at them it appears to be the most intense escalation of hostilities in the region since twenty fourteen at least seven palestinians and one israeli

were killed many more wounded. was parallel to this politically israeli defense minister of adore lieberman quit wednesday in protest of the gaza ceasefire which he described as a capitulation to terror the un security council of emergency meeting on the conflict the day before in which the israeli representative and the palestinian observer were indeed of course as you'd expect to get at loggerheads. security council must only condemn hamas but we condemn in the strongest possible terms this

aggression by israel there is no such a thing both sides. that's in the fire as a result of this blockade which is illegal. in humane and we will continue to take any measure measure necessary to protect our people 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 a collision 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 kilometers deep inside gaza that's how the escalation started with the israeli forces killing seven palestinians. ukraine's far right freedom parties organized to children some accompany. like a boot camp journalist from the associated press news agency visited said site where youngsters live under strict rules and learn how to be combat ready. to report now that's what i call a legit summer camp. in the early morning wakeup calls. oh yes right. 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. just because you know they can still. see a limitless new coal then out of sense it but it used to know what i was doing he should post google fun things and one of them on the list i'm only a few of his more. 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. should we. sell them what you will feel. it was. but. what may seem as an ugly display of far right saw the brainwashing 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 atlantic 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 practically 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. footnote bit more context of this a journey ukraine passed a law recognizing russia as an aggressor state last week ukrainian vice prime minister said his country is trying to build a strong democracy but he also said the kremlin supports populist nationalist

movements journalist brian mcdonald has been monitoring the coverage generally of the ukraine conflict since it up to four years ago please a turning point to be reached oh maybe. i'm just shocked that it's finally been reported in the west i'm in associated press have gone in there obviously a syndication agency so obviously that you know their copy then has to be reported in other mediums but 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. i love says not to show the way some of the world looked as reported by also over the last seven days here in moscow this sunday evening it's kevin know him saying thank you for watching r.t. international enjoyed a little bit left of the week. blushes and that. he could go to more from the beach he cut the host for senor he said it's not that it seems it's a shot since that only shooting against. let him into. the utopia because you know he said you needed at least. a little bit of my squad but i'm counting that in the scheme to show. which will leave you shirley's.

given to us not to the session just tell them the tea time corn summed up. the money of the british mr blair's time imo sure but. i don't think the democrats are much closer to negotiate with the republicans or president trump 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 our internal our total bickering in affairs and. nobody could see coming that false confessions would be that prevalent in the spot

the waistcoats off the conviction if you had any interrogate. what you'll see is. probably a stretch. the process of them. to put people in that frame will make the uncomfortable makes them want to get out and take no for an answer. she said before we. set the stage where i would be home by the next day there's a culture of culpability and police officers both. misconduct that has nothing to do with.

the welcome to worlds apart takes or didn't happen that's praise has more the confines of internet forums become a live dictum for a vast areas people young and old housewives to prime ministers as more and more people parts take in visualizing the world around them how is that changing the story we tell ourselves about ourselves to discuss that i'm now joined by a professor of computer science at the city university of new york. good to talk to thank you very much for your time because so much when you were into big data long before it became a household name and you use it specifically to analyze contemporary culture which i think is far more visualised and far more egalitarian and that in any other time in human history when anyone with a mobile for an organ smartphone contributes how doesn't change the overall

discourse. you're right so around two thousand and five i have insights that. when they were had so many people creation culture and it was actually before social media took off and what i'm interested in is to expose it was great to reach you because often this to assume with people people who create if i feel artist special artist living in places like most probably new york in my face is as red right millions of creative people often as people are more creative and maybe in a very small places in siberia even china in bolivia everywhere so how do we make it visible how they're being with creativity repro ducks religion ations the surface how do you make this new cultural world visible now from what i understand for a very long time suman visual culture was or at least the visible part of it was defined primarily by the talent and by the artist as you said rather than the masses and

the direction was. essentially turning their original into the mainstream is that still the case so there are multiple processes going on right if you look at for all of artificial intelligence for example and they produce will culture search engines recommendations systems you know which is building became reality for those it's a very easy place you with this is going to lead to less cultural diversity but also mechanisms which perhaps can make it more they were resample spotify rights were largest music's the services as it is the study really showed with every month the number of different music artists were wishes and is listening to is increasing by a few percent wright says so it's possible with which knowledge is a way to make a world more diverse elice there were some same time. that's an interesting and somewhat hard on.
