money makes me twenty five thousand dollars as a teacher or i can make fifty thousand dollars a truck so i chose to drive a truck people rush to a small town in north dakota was among the employment rate of zero percent is like the gold rush is very very similar to a gold rush but this beautiful story ended with pollution and a lot of people have left here i don't know too many people here anymore slow down too much they lost their jobs got laid off the american dream has changed that's not what it used to be. it's a tough reality to deal. david on the news for people who use the words of the cards for them differently the most a chance it may have been presented. we we're pretty with. figures out pointed out the m i five and u.k. home office after a couple months reported details security failures that could have prevented

a string of terror attacks that's rocked great britain and twenty seventeen. after seventeen years and billions of dollars sponsor a new study finds that america's war on terror has quadrupled the number of islamist extremists around the world. and give up your google french m.p.'s are told to ditch their use of the web giant for the local alternative by the new movie year as president micron pushes for more independence from the united states . coming to you live from the russian capital this is our two international welcome to the program. more could and should have been done to prevent the major terror attacks suffered by the u.k. in twenty seventeen well that's the conclusion of a new report from the u.k.

intelligence and security committee which has found that m i saw islamist and a number of opportunities to have heard to the tragic events. neither in my five nor counterterrorism police took any follow up action and my five decided not to place travel monitoring all travel restrictions on some of the baby and wife i've admitted that given the information they had on the baby they should have done so deficiencies in a my five system for monitoring those individuals of interest but in my five systems move too slowly one can see how the outcome could have been different or might have been different if certain things that happened which did not. the tenants words were our code by other members of the committee whose trust that lack of coordination between the intelligence services and the home office played a part and failing to prevent the tragedies or it is nice to see a trick and i guess that's the details david ansen in his report used the words had

the cards for them differently then there's a chance it may have been prevented and we we agree with that little puddle did not request support from the home office intervention provided a call which would normally and should have been the case of all of those things being that. it may not have been stopped but there was warning signals that were not followed up on routinely which should have been so what we called so it was a difference the lack of referral could have made a difference this is quite a damning report that was indeed released today by the intelligence and security committee of parliament focusing on the terrorist attacks that shook the u.k. back in twenty seventeen and westminster attack the manchester arena london bridge finsbury park and parsons green those five attacks that ended up taking a total of thirty six people's lives now on the manchester attack specifically the attacker selman abedi this report talks about how he was able to visit an extremist

in prison more than one time however without any follow up from the police or the m i five he was also apparently been able to return from libya without a. any interception from officials just days before killing twenty two people pop concerts in manchester and also it's been said in this report that he was actually flagged for review and known to the m i five since twenty fourteen however he was not referred to the government's anti-terrorism programme this is a bit of what the report had to say on the. we concluded that there were a number of failures in the handling of some of the biggest case it's impossible to say whether any of these if any of these had not happened but the devastating attack of the twenty second to me could have been prevented but we can say that as a result of the failings potential opportunities to prevent it were missed we previously made recommendations in all these areas yet the government failed to

talk of the lessons to last year's tragic events must no result be real. well among some of the other issues highlighted in this report on the london bridge attacker this committee had found that the attacker was actually arrested eight months prior to the attack but was released they also spoke about how he was known for his links to an extremist group in the u.k. and that m i five intelligence services believed that he was supportive of isis it was also talked about in this report about some of the files and documents that were found on him that authorities had believed at the time could have led to him being prosecuted under the terrorism act however none of those things of course as we now know happened and among some other things on the westminster attack also underscored by the committee that officials failed to connect the dots and that

that attacker had known links to al qaeda and yet nothing prevented him from carrying it out so really lots of questions raised about whether or not some of those attacks could potentially have been prevented. afghanistan now feels like a more dangerous place than it did four years ago well that's according to the leader of a u.s. congressional delegation which visited the country this week specifying the rise of the isis breynton the region known as isis kate jim banks and six others had to leave on tuesday just learned of a. suicide bombing and the afghan capital the attack on a religious celebration and kabul is one of the deadliest this year killing fifty five and injuring close to one hundred others islam exceeded suspected of carrying out the bombing there has been a wave of bloody violence and recent weeks and which hundreds have died as militants step up their a sold them into

a flurry of diplomatic efforts to an end to the seventeen year war on terror yet in all that time more recently unveiled research shows it's had severely limited to fact on tackling extremism. the horrendous attacks that took place on september eleventh two thousand and one in which nearly three thousand people lost their lives were followed up by the launch of the us the war on terror that was seventeen years ago and the war on terror is still taking place it certainly produced results but not the kind of results that many were expecting a new study shows that at this point there are roughly four times as many just hottest in the world as there were at the time of the nine eleven attacks at this point there's two hundred thirty thousand militants spread across seventeen different countries while the united states and allied governments have weakened some groups many of the underlying causes of terrorism have not been adequately addressed sunni arab disenfranchisement has been among the most important causes of

instability and an important source of recruits but how can this be by twenty nineteen the usa will have spent five point nine trillion dollars on counterterrorism operations and activities and at this point researchers are saying that the us military brass lacks a coherent roadmap there is no strategy to end the wars other than more of the same in the hope that one day iraqi and afghan security forces will be able to fend for themselves now the costs are not simply financial but also come in terms of human lives the latest study in the. that roughly half a million people have died as a result of america's post nine eleven wars now that only includes iraq pakistan and afghanistan with the authors of the study saying that with other countries included the numbers would be much higher. now there's no sign that america's drones missiles and tax dollars will stop rolling anytime soon the or it

is to have sufficient forces engaged in sufficient political engagement sufficient economic resources to make sure that we're putting pressure in disrupting those networks the current administration just like the obama administration believes that it does not need any additional authorization to use force against al qaida the taliban alright alright i suspect we're not leaving based on a timetable terrorism is something that all civilized people oppose working to eradicate it is certainly an honorable goal however with such a dismal results at such a high human cost perhaps the overall strategy of the war on terror should be reconsidered. r.t. new york. google is francis latest target and its push to be a last dependent on non european entities following on from president mccraw call for an e.u. army france now wants to wean itself off the web giant and use its own alternative

here's our paris correspondent. much corn and trump's friendship is down in the dumps right now but it seems that the fish in between them has spread a much wider now it seems that france is even turning its back on us tech giant google so what do you do if you want to search for something on the internet here you couldn't it it'll catch on i'm sure we have to set an example security and digital are at stake here which is not merely an issue for geeks only quote is partly french and so far it's been free of major data breach scandals and it claims that it doesn't track uses which is perhaps one of the worries of government officials given that u.s. intelligence can access data on companies clouds. where they're located both the french national assembly and the french army ministry and now sitting court as they

default saying to digital colonisation. if we don't regulate the internet we risk up setting the fundamentals of democracy if we don't regulate companies relationships to data and the rights of our citizens have to their own data that access and sharing what is the point of a democratically elected government is this another major step away from america and towards a european defense force if so it won't be music to is in washington. already faced the wrath of trump after suggesting that europe needed an army to defend itself from countries including from the good ole us of a what came next was a twitter rant from trump telling the french that they would be speaking german if not for america's help as the rule to moves increasingly towards digital

warfare front is looking to make sure it slips out from under. the u.s. is net the french shown that they are very concerned about data privacy issues but also about the domination of u.s. technology giants it will be interesting to see how this is followed in other countries and by all the moves in france do the french equally discriminates against global cloud service providers in the way that they're discriminating here against a global search engine a lot of this is going to play out and there's a lot of pressure on some of the countries in europe to keep data on shore for data sovereignty reasons to focus on supporting local technology companies especially ones that are going to pay tax in the countries that they serve which is a criticism that has been bought against some global technology jones. they

had of russia's military intelligence died on wednesday and the russian defense ministry has reported it was sixty two. the defense ministry of the russian federation general staff of the armed forces and main directorate of the general staff of the armed forces informed with great sadness that on twenty one november two thousand and eighteen after a serious and long illness head of the g.r.u. and deputy chief of the g.s.a. colonel general corps above eager valentino which passed away aged sixty two. to get a car above took over the office two years ago after his predecessor died from a heart attack during his time at the helm of the t.r.u. the agency was accused of several attacks abroad including poisoning former russian spy sergei script all and his daughter and souls bury core above leaves behind a wife and two daughters. however some commentators and the west are not satisfied with the official explanation of core above staff and took to twitter to

share their version of what happened. the head of the g.r.u. accused of election hacking poisoning sergei downing m.h. seventeen and other assorted foreign policy gambits has died of illness aged sixty two his previous sesar died aged fifty eight in twenty sixteen. the long and serious illness last to to seconds as he fell out of window some say i guess he should be happy that he didn't stop himself in the back before throwing himself out the window after having the entire russian g.r.u. network in europe exposed and ridiculed following the unsuccessful skin to process a nation the head of the g.r.u. suddenly dies of a long and serious illness. journalist brian mcdonald gave us his thoughts on karr about staff and their reaction to it nobody should ever accept everything and a government says to be gospel truth but it doesn't necessarily mean that

everything they say is a lie as well. and it doesn't mean that every single russian who dies that is this is specious i mean a sixty two year old man sixty two year old men unfortunately died of cancer all over the world all the time in various positions and it doesn't mean they've been shown no true windows i think there's two reasons i think one is a lack of knowledge of russia or other or a lack of interest in having knowledge of russia so pure ignorance in other words and the second reason is just playing to stereotypes you know and looking for. looking for likes which are the modern currency of the rosco heart of scoundrel as it may be after the break a look at the da vinci divine has a sleep brushes off francis request to display the painter east and masterpieces all that and much more coming up right after this break.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy from day shouldn't let it be an arms race is also a spearing dramatic development the only move i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk.

you're watching our international welcome back palestinians facing of action and losing their livelihoods have condemned the demolition of dozens of buildings in is . owners say they were delivery notice this concerning more than twenty palestinian own shops allegedly built without official permission locals say they will be left with no other option but to return to refugee camps on the fate of many palestinians has been dragging on since may the same year when israel decided to remove residents from the west bank village so their properties because be bulldozed so though are some though aren't giving up hope and are continuing to

fight for their homes. if it is. if we know that israel wants to destroy our home i don't want that to happen. and to a good team. and look at it we're afraid for our families for our children how we're living is very hard psychologically softening. a bit and a lot of what did we feel much stronger than netanyahu stronger than anyone in the world because we're fighting for the right thing we're strong thanks to our belief

and i'll work with god's help we'll stay on our lands. as rails as the projects being coordinated alongside the palestinian authority is and will take place soon meanwhile as rail has slammed to donald trump's a long awaited peace plan which outlines a road map to and the conflict and the region. they get between the palestinians and israelis is much too big you know do to bridge to be bridged so you would tell trump president trump don't waste your time with this if they. want to discuss this story and no more details let's now cross live to political scientist younis and freeman from the hebrew university welcome to the program here on our national a so the u.s. president donald trump has proven to be quite a strong supporter of israel but they have been quite critical even skeptical about

his peace plan what do you think is israel now turning its back on trump. well i think that we have to realize that the person who gave that statement minister a kid about the so-called plan and becoming about does not represent what the opinion is of the prime minister or even the israeli government and she gave an opinion. that she believes personally about the plan that could be or not be when the plan is presented it will be discussed and debated at the israeli government and then the government itself will decide whether to back you don't well i would have to disagree with you a little bit there is a pall actually that was released last month which found that seventy three percent of israelis do not believe that u.s. president donald trump's peace plan would actually lead to peace and again we heard from israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu he also said that he does not see

any urgency and having the plan released so again i'm asking why do you think israel holding out for what could israel be holding out for why the rejecting the plan so strongly. well i think we have to differentiate between statements that are made publicly to statements that are made in rooms we are a democracy there is public opinion there is a way for everyone to express what they think in the government and outside of it but in the end the policy which is what israel is really believes is really going and believes to do something that will be discussed. in deliberations in front of the liberation government and the american government i can tell you that with regards to polls most israelis to not believe any deal will probably bring peace but what they are in for some some deal that will lower the probability of reward

and it all depends on how you question the populace about that by the way the israeli government also believes that once a plan is discussed and brought forward by president donald trump this is a plan which will probably have to be amended both by the israelis and palestinians . all right well let's now talk about israel's decision to remove presidents from the west bank village now we just mentioned that in our report doesn't that seem very harsh to just demolish ops and homes why do you think ordinary people have to basically fall victim here. well israel is israel is a state of laws we are a society of laws not of men and what every thing that happens whether or not it's in the house that is brought. in and discussed whether or not it can stay on the ground or not this is something that has resulted in the long and very complicated

due process every palestinian who has some sort of issue with the. agreement or non agreement to stay in a certain area has the opportunity go through the court system in this what happens whenever there is a result it is a result of not only security deliberations about whether or not it can also be there legally and if there are removal of individuals in territories here in there this is something that has come about because the court has allowed it to happen in by the way this is done both towards palestinians in jewish residents of the area jewish residents have also been removed because of their illegal structures that have been built so this is something happens both the palestinians and jewish residents or i think it so much for your insight that was psionics and

a free man from the here university. and now we're moving on leonardo da vinci has been dragged into a rally between the french president and its these deputy prime minister who have been trading insults online now grown as reconsidering a loan ing that master is priceless works for a major acts of bush and paris we need to renegotiate everything the french cannot have a tool they're not ariza tellin him that darden france to give the louvre all these paintings would put italy on the margins of a major cultural event. paris's fame to move museum was hoping to borrow some of devin trees and notable works for a big show in twenty nineteen marking five hundred years since his death rome also stressed that france should ban and return alone something equally important like the mona lisa well under the arctic cream and their movies due to

a lone works by another italian renesas master raphael for a two thousand and twenty exhibition marking the anniversary of his death although most of his masterpiece is already in its early while we talk to people and both countries about where they think the paintings should be shown. to. any. of us saudi losses that is evident as you know we don't. get whole body year but then i found. that it was. a student to your feet see.

you enough to. do when you found out but many. people did you. didn't get. the. number to mean. you can't. get a sort of you know. you don't know if you. you're watching our senior national my colleague and it gets you there we'll be back with more news right at the top of the hour.

join me every thursday on the alex simon chill and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. cranking gave americans a lot of new job opportunities i needed to come up here to make some money i committed twenty five thousand dollars as a teacher or i could make fifty thousand dollars a year trucks or chose to drive truck people rushed to a small town in north dakota was an unemployment rate of zero percent like gold rush is very very similar to a gold rush but this beautiful story ended with pollution and the bus station

a lot of people have left here i don't know too many people here anymore slow down too much they lost their jobs got laid off the american dream is changing that's not what it used to be. and it's a tough reality to deal with. samsung already has a significant portion of all u.s. commerce something approaching twenty percent i guess their goal is to get fifty percent of all commerce in america it would be amazon commerce and they need artificial intelligence to do that an artificial intelligence needs data to run effectively so jeff bezos but the call out to all the cities and they said we may come to your town just give us all the data on all the people living in your town and will dump it into our computers and our ai systems and by the way you don't get any. future historians may look back at donald trump's handling of the murder of jamal khashoggi as a case study of the lock of leadership and outright folly his reasons for giving

the saudis or rather the crown prince a free pass simply don't make sense why because it's all about iran. what politicians to do something to. put themselves on the lawn to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or somehow want to be preached. to the right to be press this is what the four three of the four can't be good for. i'm interested always in the waters about how they should. question.

less things became the place where my dream that i felt like my dream could be realized and i would like to stay here. i was twenty seven when i came here. i was inside me and my girlfriend we had a we had a place together so i was paying half the rainy she was paying to have to live so we were inside for three years. i met on the street she was using i got off the drugs and got a down to drinking beer but her earlier had already ran its course she needs she didn't want to get on a liver transplant so. she died.
