here is because that's what murder victims' families want to that's going to give them peace it's going to give them justice and we come in and say. not quite enough we've been through this and this isn't the way. to much. fun. this is what the decision is long on the floor of the united states passing a resolution this point it would encourage the cooties were encouraged the iranians split emerges in washington over the u.s. stance toward saudi arabia with the senate calling for ending aid to the gulf war but in yemen something the white house adamantly opposes. me as being are both going to counseling to climb. on train. the sexual abuse

survivor in the u.k. calls for a change in the roll up to the man who raped or is told about possible access to her son almost a result of the assault. and the yellow vest protesters in france are planning another series of rallies against president mccrum fuel tax increase for french police voiced their demands for more support for. the situation on the ground might be very different but according to the information we have here everything is correct and the problems happen when management does not understand the risks we are taking on location because they sitting in their office. there is one of the off today in this. moscow welcome to world news for this hour first off the u.s. senate sound the white house of locked horns over america's support for saudi arabia senators are demanding that the government end the military aid to the saudi

led war effort in yemen here's how the u.s. secretary of state reacted to the move they're considering expanding a resolution on the senate floor which we think is just poorly timed so this is what the decision is all about on the floor of the united states passing a resolution this point that would encourage the who these were encouraged the iranians will no longer be part of their destructive military adventurism hopefully get a cease fire and something that we have to put. radically been driving for four months and we think we're right on the cusp of that we were fuelling the bombers that the saudis sent in to yemen the vote comes amid the ongoing anger over the killing of jamal khashoggi the dissident journalist murdered last month inside the saudi consulate in istanbul and i'm open has more on washington's current division's. well the vote was sixty three to thirty seven with support on both sides of the aisle the resolution called for the united states to end any

cooperation with the saudi led attack on yemen now one of the voices speaking in favor of the resolution was us senator bernie sanders of vermont we have been providing the bombs. the saudi led coalition is using we have been refueling their planes before they drop those bombs this is a vote. that says to the world we are going to end. the whole rip the humanitarian. that is killing tens and tens of thousands of defenseless children in yemen there was opposition to this resolution from the white house very strong we heard that there was a closed door session in congress mike pompei o the secretary of state addressed members of the u.s. senate and urged them not to pass this resolution arguing that somehow this resolution would actually hurt the conditions of those living in yemen the

suffering in yemen grieves me but if the united states of america was not involved in yemen it would be a hell of a why it's been widely reported that the united states prevented a resolution in the united nations that would have condemned the saudi attacks on yemen the resolution had support from the united kingdom among others and essential he would have called on saudi arabia to cease its activities that harm civilians however the united states works behind the scenes to prevent it from becoming a resolution now there has been widespread opposition and condemnation to saudi arabia's activities in yemen we've heard statements from charities that have come forward humanitarian organizations and said that essentially saudi activities put fourteen million people at risk of malnutrition however the united states continues to align with saudi arabia now it's important to point out that this is not the first time there have been votes on capitol hill regarding this issue and back in march the u.s. senate was presented with the opportunity to vote on this resolution and failed to

do so they did not pass this resolution however today as we have seen they did actually come forward and condemn saudi arabia's activities in yemen not much has changed in yemen sense march however what has changed is there has been widespread outrage about the killing of journalist jamal khashoggi secretary of defense james mattis came forward and essentially argued that while he was concerned about the plight of civilians in yemen this resolution was the wrong move a security interests cannot be to. missed even as we seek accountability for what president trump describes is the unacceptable and horrible crime of jamal who shows us mudda the saudi bombing has been responsible for the majority of the death and destruction in yemen and has led to this tremendous famine the largest outbreak of cholera in modern history and none of that seemed to move the elected officials in this country enough to do anything about it and it was the. washington post

journalist a saudi but somebody who was known to people in the elite circles in washington d.c. that really led to the kind of vote that we're seeing there's a strong what i call a pro war lobby which is made up of the weapons industry and as long as the american people do it tension the media didn't show us the results of the bombings the dead civilians the starving children congress was happy to go along and not do anything about it. and saudi arabia strongly denies attacking civilians saying that any targets they consider terrorists meanwhile the situation continues to deteriorate every day in yemen which is already described as one of the worst humanitarian crises on the planet just a warning some of the following images are upsetting to say.

a rape victim in the u.k. is demanding a change in the law or after the man who assaulted. i was told he could be granted access to his son he was born as a result of the deal. is it. to me. and if not don't mind me as being a counselor to apply today i'm trying to raise an unusual case getting quite a bit of traction here in the u.k. a victim of child sexual exploitation has waived her on an image and come forward demanding a change in legislation following revelations that

a man who had raped her as a teenager as a result of which she became pregnant and had a child was approached by a local council to basically see if this man wanted to be part of the child's life but man in question was put behind bars two years ago which is serve a thirty five year sentence for multiple sexual offenses against nine girls in the area including that woman sammy woodhouse who'd rather him council invited him to potentially seek visits with the child the man did not go for this offer and did not seek such an application however this still triggered a push for a change in legislation and this is what local m.p. had to say on the matter appalling example of the law being set up either to favor the perpetrator or to actively walk against the rights of abuse survivors and the consideration they should be afforded the ministry of justice is currently

investigating whether this please due to an error or whether there is potentially a wider problem behind this we have also heard from the council who said that they were basically just following guidelines so there's a lot of questions to be addressed in this area yet again with this story now coming to the forefront when we spoke to people in rather i'm in the north of england where the grooming scandal continues to haunt the town to be in prison restrooms apps. disgust sam and it sounds horrible and i think it's disgusting to know if i can say just disgusting discussed in the police should be frightened to death to do anything in the past understood it or do it now absolutely incredulous in the fact that they can just think it's acceptable to approach a convicted rapist and ask him if he will be who wants access to a child or anti grooming campaign a sarah that says the rights of the victims must come first interest of the child

is paramount their case is centering around their child the visitation of the child in the best interest of the child that child doesn't need to know who that person was who did that to his mom father or not what happened to this woman is all full awful awful and women do survive rape because that's what they are they are survivors of rape we can't talk about me enough we do need to lift the lid open already i mean examine what happened you have to look at the bigger picture it is still happening we do need prosecutions we do need parents to speak up and say yes our daughter was a victim in the english community their english families they will go and they will seek prosecution and but within the asian community where he does happen and he still rife there groomers are protected by the own community because they are chained by our nourish and stigmas so that is why they are prosecutions are there lessons have been learned but they are not being acted upon. them from so-called

yellow vests protesters have announced plans for more rallies against the president's fuel tax increase emanuel macross digging in though and is refusing to change course despite angry nationwide protests over the past couple of weeks. last saturday's demonstrations led to arrests between protesters and police according to reports there were one hundred thirty arrests sixty nine of those in paris five officers were injured including one who suffered burns. on the matter of paris has joined one of france's police unions and expressing worries over officer safety during the rallies the union's general secretary told r.t. france their superiors don't understand the conditions that officers are facing.

but said i started to call on what you saw in diversity the police the overseen from the operation room at the headquarters they give orders saying do that go there the situation on the ground might be very different but according to the information we have here everything is correct and the problems happen when management does not understand the risks we are taking on location because they're sitting in their office. i was told an interesting story of one location workers willing paving slabs and no one from management has told us to close off the area to prevent the protests this room pulling out those slabs and using them. those protesters are hooligans and criminals the people who don't want to abide by the law the inside conflict they're ready to commit crimes on screen the question of who they really are i would say they are against society they used in the protest movement is

a pretext. to speak islamic state ideology of terror touch to every aspect of daily life in the regions they occupied it even down to the education of children and they have their own twisted ideas of what youngsters should be taught and how to teach the artes arabic channel got a glimpse of life inside for myself for saluting in iraq. one would say he'd seize twenty three weapons as trophies from infidel or another with the heat seized in seventeen weapons how many weapons did they seize in total . where the line caps of the caliphate where the soldiers. will attack. if he calls

a. red lion cubs of the caliphate where the true law and sons. alone with all their thought of the name of this policy was to create a new generation of militants to strengthen the terrorist group i'm still afraid of i say because they killed and tortured us. over the years russian media and r.t. in particular have repeatedly been branded by their critics in america and elsewhere as fake news and propaganda it can news that's being spread by russia or to which is heavily supported. funded by the russian the

russian government faking it has dominated the true had lines of fake news spread by russia kremlin spread misleading or otherwise fake news but a notable shift in tone a former undersecretary for u.s. homeland security now says our team does tell the truth but it was an entirely allegation free review. r.t. russia today has a weekly program called america's lawyer. the not relenting theme of which to quote one of the openings is america's justice system is corrupt and broken i don't think there's anything in there that is a law but it is an unrelenting lee one sided view if you knew how to look at the other side you would see that russia least is weighing in on both sides they're not on your side they're not on the other side they're on their own side it is to weaken us to the all to america program mentioned there reacted by accusing spaulding of trying to cover up the failures media and legal analyst lionel says

shedding light on america's problems may be bad for the government but not for the people the truth hurts the truth can be problematic don't be so truthful r t don't be so truthful or could you be a little bit more positive in their truth this is a dramatic difference from fake imaginary on real untrue fictional fictive synthetic that was the old story now it's your own true. could you be a little less truthful could you could you could you perhaps baby spread the truth around a troubling magic improvement in my humble opinion it can not harm the united states but he can devastate the government it can devastate aspects agencies law enforcement judicial system politicians presidents to congress all of

the truth can be a horrible their truth especially if it exposes corruption oh absolutely but does it hurt america america can use never this is all to international it's time to return to a cold war mentality sunday as far as the former head of britain's armed forces is concerned i'll tell you all about that among our stories after the break.

what politicians do you should. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. for something. to try to be this is what the four three of the more people. interested in the. welcome back a feminist journalist in canada has been permanently banned from twitter for hateful conduct she tweeted that trans women can't be identified as women or join

the feminist movement a mega murphy was first locked out of our account and oldest she deleted tweets and regained access but is now banned over those controversial post she accuses twitter of censoring basic facts and silencing people. in her was working out to try to suspend my account permanently and then finally i received notification from twitter that my account had been permanently suspended on account their new miss gendering rule which i was not aware existed and nobody noted the users and the media were. and aware of that rule and tell friday so there's a new rule and they went back and found a tweet that i had posted before i was aware of this rule and suspended my account because i had said yeah it's him referring to a man as he said it she and apparently this individual now identifies as a woman and as mentioned there murphy fell foul of twitter to clamp down on the

hateful conduct it says that you shouldn't refer to a transgender person by their birth name known as dead name and as you can imagine murphy's critics were pleased by twitter's response so meghan murphy got kicked off twitter under the new transfer to be a policy and had a total meltdown i'm breaking my vacation silence to celebrate that megan murphy history tech around has been suspended so this week meghan murphy has lost her politike been suspended from twitter twice get to see some support for trans people at last here and i can move things defended her position explaining that her concern is about free speech and democracy. you know a man should be allowed to wear a dress if he wants to and behave in stereotypical thurmon and ways and not be discriminated against and not feel threatened but stepping out of those gender wars and pushing back against gender stereotypes does not make a person literally change sex we're being forced to adopt

a new language and there's new ideology those of us who do speak up are simply just trying to have a conversation a public debate are sneered were threatened or harassed i think everyone should be really concerned because this is about free speech and democracy we're talking about policy and legislation that impacts people lives particularly women. former head of britain's armed forces says the country needs to rediscover the mentality that helps to win the cold war deal effectively with emerging threats like russia and iran we asked people on the streets of london what they thought of that is certainly all change this is no question that more times. i'm not sure are saying you don't want any mentality like that and that. it wouldn't pass rushers or ropes here really wouldn't i mean i know some similar things are close on his you know it to some of the rooms to your question what is

it is a resume this is going to go to pushing for additional military spending and all the remarks come after a report by a london based think tank which suggests that a new unit should be created to assess enemy capabilities while also looking at the british militaries ability to respond it will be similar to a u.s. structure that existed in the one nine hundred seventy s. at the height of the cold war journalist john white thinks it's all a diversionary tactic. this is redolent of up there to political establishment that is in deep and unrelenting crisis over the keyless it has wrought but it's mishandling or wrecks it. but more importantly all the social pressure sitars law where its implementation overstated t. over the last three years it's the north i detest waste of british taxpayers' money time is a statement so many people are the first of the entire population suffering getting over thirty and their own up to christmas this is

a ruling class that is holding onto the past like a journeyman or two away from us because that is all the have in order to sustain their position they're always enemies to be vanquished and countries to beastly in russia is a traditional enemy of the british ruling class but it is by no means the traditional enemy of the british people did it to be i do very people who are telling them that russia should be the enemy. but it seems that as a new player in politics caps off very friends a seemingly being increasingly used by populist politicians to soften their image and make that policy same well known company.

right that's the way it looks. you know nails here with the latest report.

i got a place called camp sundown camp for people that can't last saturday and they're like so vampire camp is like a safe house i guess they don't have to talk about what they go through with this because we understand her daughter katie was diagnosed with a very rare sun sensitive condition if i get sunburned i heal she does or she'll patients when they have problems with the walking talking here are some of the brains that are actually shrinking inside there the stone gets thicker in the brain still small. the pain is indescribable it's feels like a really really bad chemical burn but it goes through your skin in your muscle all it down to the bone. there's no relief. we're not to sure this is

going to stop. us veterans who come back from war often tell those same stories. we're going after the people who were killing civilians they were not interested in the wellbeing of their own soldiers either they're already several generations of them so i just got this memo from the circulated branches off that says we're going to attack and destroy the government and in seven countries in five years americans pay for the wars with their money others with their lives if we were willing to go into harm's way and willing to risk being killed for a war surely we can risk some discomfort or an easy for us. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show

business i'll see you then. when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murder i would prefer and it means no in the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict is found innocent the idea that we more executing innocent people is terrifying news just know it hasn't and that we're even many of the times families want the death penalty to be abolished the reason we have to keep the get tell here is because that's what murder victims' families want that's going to give them peace it's going to give them justice and we come in and say. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way.

kalu i'm asked cons are and this is the kaiser report let's talk with stacey max i have one headline from financial times and two from wall street journal those are international financial news headlines and these are showing you a story by juxtaposing these headlines and tell you a story that we have been telling you for several years now does the juxtaposition yes that's a great way to tell a story right the story that has been sold to many americans is that we america are

the number one oil producer in the world that is true that we're producing a great deal of oil a lot of it due to fracking so that's all well and good but none of those headlines in the mainstream media outside the financial press tells americans at what cost so i want to show you just the headlines and some quotes actually from the headlines to tell you the difference why america russia saudi arabia they all three are the largest producers of oil in the world and the difference in the call aust of production so this is from financial times and by the way it's from the fed has four times before the recent seven percent and six percent all the crashes coming russian oil groups hit sweet spot as profits surge companies awash with cash but falling crude price means good times may not last so russian oil companies have rarely had it so good rising oil prices coupled with the weakening ruble have sent profits for export are surging above forecasts quote they are russian oil and gas

companies are having an absolutely fabulous year said alexei bowl chicago general director of citi group global markets they earn more per barrel than they did even during one hundred dollars a barrel oil prices these guys have exorbitant profitability that's right because of the quirks of the way oil is priced in dollars. so russian oil producers are raking it in i guess. goes against the narrative that we're applying some kind of sanctions that hurt them well it also goes towards explaining the cost of production is a lot lower when you don't have to frac refract requires fracking requires heavy artillery you don't just you know stick you know traditional oil donkey one of those things that you always see the classic junkie looking.
