israel and palestine amid a day of rage riots in gaza and the west bank. was . a palestinian teenager has been killed and dozens of protesters have been injured in clashes with israeli soldiers israel says its actions were in self-defense and to stop acts of terrorism the palestinian demonstrations followed rallies by

hardline jewish protesters in the west bank settlements where they clashed with police and demanded the closure of a major motorway to palestinian traffic tensions were high after the killing of two i.d.f. soldiers in a settlement near the palestinian city of ramallah on thursday. israeli military has launched a manhunt in the west bank for the killing of those two soldiers and has already detained dozens of suspects checkpoints and roadblocks have been set up throughout ramallah israeli forces say they're conducting searches in the area and will be operating there for the foreseeable future prime minister benjamin netanyahu has also ordered the legislation of thousands of pounds for israeli settlers in the west bank and demolish the homes of those it considers terrorists.

in a fiery speech on thursday in netanyahu also insisted that israel will respond to all attacks. all good influence that whoever attacks us and who have a choice to it's like us we pray with his life i really mean and we will find them in the general secretary of the palestinian national initiative most of our barghouti claims nonviolent palestinian protests are always met with israeli aggression. how can further escalation of violence in ramallah be avoided in your opinion it can only be avoided if the israeli army gets out of our cities and if they remove the brigades. and stop the attacks on our civilian population that's the first step but then the second step should be immediate. action of a process of ending occupation there's been no apparent progress if we look at the

last six months of day of rage protests. is an idea to change strategy perhaps the palestinians have changed the strategy the palestinians have adopted the nonviolent resistance and the marches that are taking place in peaceful nonviolent all forms of violence have been excluded and we have a good. strategy that commits to nonviolent resistance but when each peaceful demonstration is left with the israeli army shooting the people and killing them of course there will be palestinian reactions and in the form of resistance to occupation. i don't think it would be a grave mistake if we're to between the palestinians and israelis in this regard you have to remember that what we have here is palestinian civilian population in the west bank that is totally unarmed in confrontation with the israeli army and israeli settlers who are armed to the teeth. in what is seen as

a major new turn by the new italian government it's submitted a revised budget proposal to the european commission an effort to avoid sanctions previously about it would stick to its high spending plans which had been rejected by europe peter has more details rome has made the decision to back down over the budget that they were trying to force through they've been trying to force it through the for quite a while now the plan initially was to run a two point four percent. it's they've now revised that they will be running a two point zero four percent deficit for twenty nineteen it does mean some of the marquee policies that just because they wanted to push through in the new year going to be hits to the tune of a few billion euros but seeing things like the universal basic income for the unemployed also plans to lower the retirement age are also coming in on the

chopping block certainly not the plans themselves but the financing for those plans for twenty nineteen arguments for this being going on for a while though it's at least decided to step down to back down i beg your pardon to avoid sanctions from brussels but there was some real heated arguments in the lead up to this decision for the first time as a commission is obliged to the worst country that it was it's that often budgetary plan this is the first time in budget doesn't like no surprise this is the first italian budget written in rhyme and not in brussels the economy in. the italian economy is healthy and this is an economic move that will give italy distributive needs we won't change one comma in this document there is the plan b. you know to go into that that we are not going boards that are both going on. working future. that more than words as well when the e.u.

issued a document rejecting the initial a tally in budget one a tally in m.p. employed a little punt of mine to express his dissatisfaction. so it's really found themselves firmly in the financial naughty corner over their budget that they've now backed down on but just this week france's announced plans to appease the yellow vest protesters with a slew of social spending a manual on well his government planning to run

a budget deficit that could run from three percent to three point five percent the reaction from. the e.u. commission commissioner for economic affairs was quite different have a listen to what he had to say. the eventual overrun of the three percent must not extend over two consecutive years noite see three point five percent over the one year there is no indulgence these are rules and nothing but our rules for the italian side aren't happy they say this is a double standard for a muscovy chair in the e.u. commission site they say that two slightly different scenarios for the french case this is a one off budget deficit that they are going to allow them to push them through and it must not exceed three point five percent in the italian case they were saying well this is going to be a series of budget deficits that will continue for the future as they put forward their plans and that was something the e.u. commission couldn't well couldn't accept it hasn't however stopped those in rome

from looking over the border over open to northern europe towards france and thinking we wouldn't have got away with that why do you thrity take our political analyst paolo reference telling us that it is just thanking in the interests of its leading power as. the french. just to have a year deficit between three people and five percent. is a sort of an exceptional measures at best to be france without putting it into question at all the fundamentals on which the entire economic and monetary system is things to europe. that's a verse of the italian quest was tackling the fundamentals of the system saying that the. accents should be put to roads regions fifty seven region in the in the treaties but it doesn't have to be really implemented it's european level you're trying to save france because france is essential in the continent to maintain

the india approach that the commission has been implementing for the past ten years basically they don't want to feel you can only focus they want to go on as a tease interest. of the to ensure. countries which are france and germany. kosovo's parliament has voted to form its own army with the president has patchy hailing the move. the creation of the course of our army is the best gift for the end of the year season third aim is to turn a cost of zero security force into a regular army it's expected to have five thousand on duty personnel and three thousand reservists however it may take at least ten years to bring the legislation fully into force early this month serbia stress that it might even consider military intervention if kosovo went through with this move. i am hoping we would never have to use the army but this is certainly one of the options on the table as

we do not want to watch this ethnic cleansing kosovo declared independence in two thousand and eight only of serbia doesn't recognize so he says the formation of such an army violates the agreement which brought the kosovo war to an end nato's chief also criticized the move saying the alliance might reconsider its cooperation with kosovo. while the transition of the cost of a security force is in principle and matter for kosovo to decide we have made clear this move is ill timed nato supports the development of the kosovo security force under its current mandate with a change of mandate the north atlantic council will now have to reexamine the level of nato's engagement with the cost of a security force. meanwhile the united states has backed kosovo's move america's ambassador to the region has tweeted that kosovo must engage with its minority community and nato allies in its transition period he also plays to america's support throughout. international affairs commentator marco told us

why he thinks the u.s. and nato reacted differently to kosovo. stoltenberg is trying to really keep a kind of middle ground without saying anything to anyone that's very controversial therefore president presented this as official nato policy but the real nato policy is the one that the us decides because nato is a vehicle for the u.s. to get its way in europe as it's doing there since the u.s. is supporting itself in the heart of europe as it supported itself nearly twenty years ago when it did the original aggression by which cause of this cause the state from the rest of serbia so the u.s. is using cause of war as a strategic interest or real base of operations is built the largest military base since vietnam it doesn't have to ask anybody's permission to keep it there forever that's what the u.s. likes about the course of leadership but they know their place their economy and that's the way the u.s. likes it. it's one giant hurdle after another for the embattled

british premier theresa may just two days since surviving a confidence vote from our own party she's now back in the lion's den of brussels she's desperately looking for anything she can take back from a meeting of the ministers which might win over her skeptical parliament to have brakes and plan and is to see a choker as the details what a week for to resubmit it really was the best of times it was the worst of times you know when one hand she managed to plow through that vote of no confidence that would triggered by her own party here in westminster but on the other hand she continues to be dark in this massive deadlock when it comes to the biggest job she now has to get done which is bracks it and. all of this while sort of jumping like a tennis ball from one court to another going from westminster to the e.u. back to westminster to the e.u. and despite all this moving around not a lot of results seem to be getting produced tangible ones with lots and lots of

roadblocks getting in her way you've had a trying week. what's been worse. something of this week. one of the reports. oh you should believe everything you reason what was it what it was difficult was it in the malcontents at home or was it been the bullies over here negotiations like this are always tough the risk difficult times as you get close to the very end then that can get even more difficult what are what drives me to can carry on doing this and making sure we deliver is that this is what's right for the british people well though that latest hurdle was in fact in brussels bound but also back at home it seems that for to reset may everybody is on happy with something at this point you know for some people are saying not her deal let's now move on to the heart bracks it others are saying you know let's remain because things are going so badly at this stage others are saying

let's have a second referendum because things are going so badly and you know we've seen earlier today progress of protesters trying to block a bridge in westminster so the british people that to recently is trying to do her best who are seem to have a lot so lots of mixed feeling on this issue and that in its own right seems to be the biggest problem that brussels now has with all of this because they've been saying to theresa may we need you to stop being so vague we need you to go back and get specifics from the house of parliament. second bush. of commons. that there was a deep mistrust. when it comes to the huge. but it's useful future relations that. we have to bring don't do time which this question of whether theresa may is too vague or not ended up being part of an exchange between her and the president of the european commission and ended up grabbing quite

a bit of attention in the media. you look very angry when you respond to the show earlier today what did you say to him and did he admit that he had called you an endless well first of all i had a robust discussion with him because i think that's the sort of discussion you're able to have when you've developed a working relationship and you work well together when you use that particular phrase even talking about the general level of debate well whether these are robust discussions as theresa may has described them are actually going to end up leading somewhere remains to be seen whether they're going to end up being able to reach some kind of solutions or whether the u.k. is going to be launched towards a new deal bracks it's something that's increasingly being talked about remains to be seen and there's really not very much time left to see which one is going to end up being. america's national security advisor has criticised the activities of

russia and china in africa john bolton was and they lean and mean u.s. policy or the continent. the continent russia advances it's political and economic relationships with little regard to the rule of law or are accountable and transparent governance. it continues to sell arms and energy in exchange for votes at the united nations china uses broad opaque agreements and the strategic use of debt to hold states in africa captive to beijing's wishes and demands of a critical of russia and china but as poor as the policies of the us in africa how and what is. this regarding that it reads more like a declaration of war than a strategy and this plan is for the good of the africa promises john bolton this

coming from a guy whose boss trump infamously referred to several african nations as something that i can't mention on there the predatory practices pursued by china and russia stunt economic growth in africa threaten the financial independence of african nations and pose a significant threat to u.s. national security interests its interest in logic so when china or russia or someone else you don't like lends an african nation money that's dead colonialism almost financial slavery when america does it it's investment for africa's own good well if mentioning is that russia's trade with the continent pales into insignificance when compared to the us or china look at this realize this highway hydro power station all built with chinese investment beijing is raising entire cities with more to come china is willing to provide now the sixty billion

dollars in support of africa to government assistance investment and financing the financial institutions and into prizes the phrase actions speak louder than words is entirely a political here the chinese leader xi jinping has visited africa nine times. his tenure tromp one sent his wife but what the united states might lack in tact its more than makes up with guns american troops stationed in fifty out of fifty four african nations it has thirty four military sites thousands and thousands of soldiers across the entire continent and a long history of military interventions china has one base in djibouti russia has none american troops are there for africans own good washington would say speaking of which remember the whole chinese and russian money that had american

money good thing well it turns out not so much our new foreign assistance strategy will ensure that all us foreign aid in every corner of the globe vance's u.s. interest countries that repeatedly vote against the united states in international forums or take actions counter to u.s. interest should not receive generous american foreign aid john bolton they tease and gentleman man who unveiled america's new africa plodded so much for financial independence africans good luck we need to move it to consider what really africa needs it's not really what china mase want a russian a it's all us everyone china russia or all of france as it all as they can really come to be able to number one the infrastructure of development and also to gave technology to grow their agricultural their manufacturing base that's something

that command a moral high malice simply elegant the other all of this continent it doesn't really know how these people to grow their industry to earn a better life distinct or ponting to russia or to to china for some. you know all along. that doesn't really help but. it is all true are. all the what. british comedian booked to appear before students was shocked to find he'd been sent a behavioral agreement to sign ahead of the gig in order to quote avoid problems constancy in earth kissin was among the five comedians shared jewel to perform at the event being held to raise money for the children's charity unicef they were all sent the behavioral agreement by the university's unicef on campus society which

forbid any jokes on racism sexism homophobia among others they stressed the topics can be raised but only in a respectful way. the university's union though says that it did not require external speakers to sign any form of contract before speaking at events and that the organizer unicef on campus had been overzealous later unicef on campus itself came out with an apology. given that unicef is a children's charity we wanted to make sure it was an appropriate event for because we would never wish to impose that guests would have to agree to anything that they do not believe in we apologize for the misunderstanding u.k.'s national union of students says it has no evidence of such student union rules in twenty fourteen comic opera laughs was banned from performing at cardiff university after seven hundred people signed a petition complaining that his show trivialize rape unprotected sex and dehumanizing of women the following year campaigners threatened to picket activists

kate's worthless poem or performance because of her views on decriminalizing sex work and the u.k. is not the only country raising concerns over free speech in universities a study finds nine in ten u.s. higher education facilities restrict freedom of speech with a third of them imposing substantial restrictions earlier kate smith weighed the activist community and threatened with picketing by u.k. university debated the issue with legal analyst and media commentator lionel so absolutely trivial for me to sign this document and to be honest if you have to stop and go what you know what they're asking me not to be sexist how could they then maybe it's about time that you sort of thought about the fact that it's twenty eighty and checked out what your material is i find it weird that we're presenting this as though somebody is being censored the fact is that by agreeing to come on your show i've agreed not to swear on air and if i didn't want to do that i could have not come on your show when you know your other guests are bound by the same

thing be i if every time you see a cup of coffee you shout i hate coffee it's disgusting or you won't be working in a coffee shop next week let me explain what the problem is imagine if i came on our own our my colleague here in comes i don't usually do not talk about this subject do not mention the word pull the kremlin united states trump would say whoa whoa wait. hold it we wouldn't say well those are the rules it's like yelling fire in a crowded theater or coffee in a coffee shop we would say wait a minute you're let me what i'm saying you can make your own decision about what is and isn't ok and there are absolutely things i'm sure that you wouldn't allow me to say on and i know there are you know in line all the same and so by coming on air of course we've agreed not to say those things are not you know it's not down to every comedian to decide what kind of stuff they want to do and if that means that they don't want to play you know there are shows that i know where the comedians perform to children and of course when you perform

a show for children there are kinds of subjects that you don't go near because it's a children's show and i don't personally i don't do those shows because i don't write the kind of material that suits those events and so i don't put myself forward we're not talking to them not a question of your you're being sold than to give priggish above the rules and looking it up in the dictionary that's not the issue the bigger issue is that instead of us saying wait a minute what rules wait a minute why kid they speak no we're saying excuse me why aren't you abiding by the rules look at how we're giving in our first of all don't break the rules instead of saying wait a minute he's a comic is this over eighteen what kind of a club is this i'm sorry but life's tough but i do think that the answer is that everybody is entitled to you know here's my radical opinion i think we're entitled to free speech i think they're entitled to say this is what we think the rules should be and i think everybody else who's involved in that should be entitled to agree to disagree to say well actually i would like a change to this was something you haven't mentioned that i find to be quite

problematic i think that you know we know that there are always going to be limits in society about what is and isn't ok to be said in certain forums and certain platforms and that's absolutely fine what's the matter with us we're used to be tough we're becoming a bunch of little snowflake trigger trigger warning then heard and it's listen to what we're talking about. a comedian but by the way if there was no rules or what the heck was he being asked to sign we are losing our sense of humor we're losing our guts in our spine we're losing who we are removing our personality so keep it up our backs keep it up you'll be out of a job in six months. with christmas nearly upon us the festive spirit is in full swing but in sweden one department stores holiday offer didn't get a warm welcome. who
