to this day you received no compensation they never apologized for the suffering their. not only want the money i want the revenge. headlines in r.t. a man detained in russia on spying charges appears to be a citizen of britain canada and the us that is some speculate he was seized by moscow to be used as a bargaining chip. with the national emergency because of the security of our country absolutely you know we can do it i haven't done it i may do it i may do it. threatens to clarify state of emergency if there's no consensus on funding his border wall meanwhile democrats reviving the impeachment. because we're going to go in there really some of them. and it's revealed the u.k. spent nearly a quarter of a million pounds protecting

a radical muslim cleric after the porting him to another country we put the issue up for the. first suggesting it's appropriate that the u.k. a taxpayer should pick up the bill for a terrorist mastermind because the rule of the u.k. want to. allow the welcome just gone two pm here in moscow you're watching international start this hour with some news just in from the u.s. because police there say that three people have been killed and four injured in a mass shooting at a bowling alley in tolerance in california unconfirmed reports suggest that there could have been a fight before shots were fired and investigation is ongoing with people being advised to stay away from the area torrance is a coastal city about thirty kilometers from los angeles will bring you more information as. we get. now

britain canada ireland and the us of all confirm that a man detained in russia on spying charges is one of their citizens paul will and a former u.s. marine is now at the center of intense media speculation or correspondent in your picks up the story. haven't they god as get rather used to hearing about russian spies getting caught in america we have the hybrid warfare that you're seeing with russia which is very much forefront inspired master this is the one thing this is a hard and fast rule of trading when you when you go and. particularly coming out of the soviet union or russia they will accuse of being a russian spy has pleaded guilty in a us federal court this time the case is the exact opposite paul whelan an american national and former u.s. marine was arrested in moscow in perhaps the fanciest hotel in the capital but who

would have known when the news broke that as many as four countries would end up saying he's our guy about mr we won the embassy violent in moscow has requested consular access to an irish citizen currently detained in russia we are extremely worried about pool whelan we have offered consular assistance consular officials are aware that a canadian citizen has been arrested in russia ambassador huntsman expressed his support for mr whelan and offered the embassy assistance however when it comes to the canadian passport the suspects brother couldn't even say whether he still has it or not i don't know i know that he was once a canadian citizen so he may still be and i know that he is an american citizen right now strange but that's how it is paul whelan is in detention in moscow having been charged with espionage although his family is sure the reason he went to russia was just a wedding party the american ambassador had been given permission to see the spy

suspect and so he did mr whelan's lawyer is seeking bail for his client but don't forget several countries have lined up to help him out so while u.k. officials are waiting for the green light to get access to the alleged spy their top diplomat has spoken out opposition is very very clear individuals should not be . used as pawns of diplomatic leverage we need to see what those charges are against him to understand whether there is a case or not we're not ruling out any theories tool at this stage as to why this might have happened there are very few details on the case that we know off for now there hasn't been much reaction from senior officials either but journalists around the world are all over this story and speculation is rife he faces up to twenty years in a russian jail deal that's plenty of time to be swapped. what's most likely as we'll as a pawn in russia's play to get back one of its spies after maria patino here in the

united states the rehabilitation do you believe the arrest of your brother was retaliation was revenge in some way by the russians as you've just heard many are linking this case with the case of maria booted up she was arrested in america in july and eventually pleaded guilty to conspiring against the u.s. with the russian government official and at least one other person without notifying the attorney general however the fact is the charges brought against maria buton and paul whelan are completely different well earlier this week the washington post published an article about mr whelan's to tension and then it former cia official john saif shares his wheel and being a spy saying quote we don't send in random americans that diplomatic immunity to collect low level stuff we are sleep will media and this liable for his reaction. he says that we only use according to this people with diplomatic immunity when you

look at this as far as the illegality of it what is the role of the diplomatic community how does that work are does that in any way interfere with spying and vice versa you're not going to see a lot of people address this and you have to see a lot of people in american media in the american media speak to this particular point we must assure that all individuals in all countries are accorded the rights that are that are available to them what's fascinating is that you will see american mainstream media in particular that does not have necessarily some of the best newsrooms some of the best. let's say experts available who will have to feed that twenty four seven media. monster you have to feed it you have to give it something you're going to talk to anybody who's ever been remotely work with the

cia was in the cia drove by the cia knows somebody who was in the cia so a lot of times you're not going to see some of the best vetting of the experts. another round of budget talks between congressional democrats in the white house seems to have led nowhere with the u.s. government shutdown entering its third week the sticking point is funding for donald trump's border war and with democrats reviving talks of impeachment to the u.s. president is now threatening to take radical action if you considered using emergency powers to grant yourself authorities to build this war without congressional approval and secondly i have to go you have yes i have and i can do it if i want so you don't need congressional approval to build know we can use i'm absolutely we can call a national emergency because of the security of our country i absolutely know we can do it i haven't done it i may do it i may do it did indicate after the meeting when he spoke that he would actually consider calling

a national emergency in order to construct his wall so that he could do so without the approval of congress trump also summarize the meeting he felt the meeting was productive but the representative seemed to have the other idea we had a very very productive meeting lengthy and sometimes contentious it's very hard to see how progress will be made unless they open up the government we recognize on the democratic side that we really cannot resolve this until we open up government he said he'd keep the government closed for a very long period of time months or even years from also said that in the meeting nancy pelosi the speaker of the house of representatives that she told. trump that she had no interest in impeachment they were not looking for impeachment that's the quote there has been a call to get the ball rolling and kind of jump start impeachment proceedings against trump from some democrats one democrat in the house of representatives actually has some rather colorful language to make this call the police don't want

it and maybe they don't because we're going to go in there we're going to be some of them. while trump said that he was told by nancy pelosi that quote we're not looking for impeachment in the meeting that just happened nancy pelosi has elsewhere said that she would be open to the impeachment of us president trump we shouldn't be. and we should avoid punishment for political reasons we've reached this point where if you have control of congress or half of congress and. the president is from the other party you attack the president by. refusing to provide the votes to pass the president's agenda he'd run into problems right away because there is no national emergency is causing this this impasse over something that most americans don't really want or care about i think that the upper hand goes to democrats and they're just going to wait him out until his own

party tells him he has to fund the government because it's costing the their supporters too much and it's costing the country too much to hold a quarter of the government unfunded sure only the period of time is going to cause so much pain that he's going to have to cave and. that we might all know a line or two from my favorite t.v. show i will know you but you may want to be careful when saying them in public because tight the iconic one thousand nine hundred come seinfeld for example it seems to offend a new generation if you is like this guy makes the best soup in the city jerry the best you know if they call soup nazis. i'm not like you cut in line because of the catches us will never be able to get super again well that wasn't the only joke this course offense either another included a reference to native americans using the indians and in one episode a flag was set on fire by one of the characters and stamped on also

a stereotypical betrayal of a gay couple as also angry but opinions are divided as to what is comedy and what isn't. i wondered how long it would take for the perpetually offended p.c. police to come after one of my favorite shows it's still the best thing on television. for. comedy genius kaminey that's the whole point of comedy when you laugh with each other surprise some people still low here in the world. who is the freaking crybaby that wrote this trash seinfeld was funny when it is it's funny now and it will always be funny if these jokes from seinfeld are now on fences we better take saturday night live of the year two you can't. well perhaps the most iconic ninety six film is friends and that's also failed to pass the sensitivity test of younger generations last year online

streaming service netflix uploaded the series but the sit coms jokes fell flat and some viewers branded the story lines sexist and also homophobic we spoke to the comedian. i don't know where the selective virtue signalling originates from i don't know how a bunch of people woke up number like hey we're outraged about seinfeld today hasn't that been off the air for about twenty years yes but we're mad about this today and here's what we're mad about like there's more important things going on in the world i hope that they you know maybe take up a cause or something like that because you know we have some real reasons to be outraged in society right now and one of them is certainly not t.v. shows that have been off the air for twenty years. now north korea has told the us to stop meddling in its relations with the south killing yang claims that washington does not want to see an improvement and into korean ties it comes after

kim jong un's new year dress in which he expressed readiness for dialogue but warned the dangers of failed to play missy not operable and didn't although i am ready to meet with u.s. president again and to any time a new threat to bring about outcomes would be welcomed by the international community however the united states continues to break its promises and our patience by unilaterally demanding certain things we had with sanctions and pressure against our own public then we may have to seek another way to protect our country's sovereignty interests and peace and stability on the korean peninsula so well it was a thorny year for north korea and the u.s. with grave warnings and insults being fired from both sides but kim jong un and donald trump eventually reconciled he takes a look back now at a rather explosive twenty eight. at the beginning of twenty the state of relations between the united states and north korea could be summed up with the contest. time

itself the measuring contest in relations seemed unthinkable yet that was exactly what twenty teens brought in some of the best cases of classical literature it all began with a woman. who is needed could easily make a run at the gold medal if political free style was a millon produce simply a human face to the leadership of the reclusive state almost all the spoils of the games itself where the teams of north and south korea walked under one flag in fact even. at least in a way were reconciled and trying at least in the form. of. a double feeling. from the. fast forward a couple of months and history's made the leaders of north and south shaking hands

smiling laughing walking over to shoulder in the no man's land between their states. from apply status perspective the whole affair looked almost like a competition incivility with pyongyang peeing to gain the upper hand another all of branch of the world korea obliteration of what they said was the nuclear test site which i got to witness. the spin of the earth. and now everything is being turned into a massive cloud. in fact odyssey got to see many things but outside i had to pull hello we're inside the west end house to north korean leader kim jong il and i'm

absolutely shocked. this is how suddenly you get treated to the. very juicy kim jong un's residence the whole faja and fury thing seem to go out of fashion fust so don't some decided to put aside the summit will happen and personally i think it's going to be a success predictability though he's not one of the praise from because known for he kept the world confused regarding his intentions to meet kim jong until the very last moment is a very substantial chance that it will work as i always say who knows who knows what's going to happen who will either have a very good meeting or we're going to have a good meeting and maybe we won't even have a meeting at all it will see how it all works maybe you won't everything can be scuttled but eventually the two met and they felt and how shame about their feelings toward each other.

if you could spend i was really being tough and so was saying i will go back and forth and then we fell in love ok one thing that twenty fifteen thing in the north korean saga is that donald trump and predictability still don't go together as his emissaries were scolding came from tools living alan sort of a long distance relate. sure but. you can prove his infatuation through the south korean leader but it could be out of five into green in the broad street

years three to close last year signed that perhaps the two careers don't really need anyone but each other to finally reconcile because down of their reporting are still ahead for you this hour britain has spent a hefty sum protecting the welfare of a controversial hate preacher even some taxpayers feeling cheated we'll have that story just after the break. you know world big partisan movie 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 on the back and shouting past each other it's talk for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. again now britain has spent almost two hundred thousand pounds protecting the

welfare of the hate preacher. after he was deported to jordan to face tera charges revealed by the times newspaper sparked anger among em pays and also the public these payments are ridiculous the money we have spent is an insult to the british taxpayer. one point seven million pounds in legal fees for a hate preacher abu qatada total cost for deportation including welfare payments so far one point nine million pounds christ sakes two hundred thousand pounds spent on protecting hate preachers human rights you couldn't make it up. no wonder people want to come here they get two hundred thousands even if they leave. well the u.k. granted asylum in one thousand nine hundred four as he claimed to have been tortured in jordan the u.k. then arrested him after nine eleven on terror related charges the target was sent back to jordan twelve years later and he was assured he would not be tortured there

but his deportation overseen by the then home secretary theresa may did cost the u.k. a pretty penny as we can see at least one point nine million pounds were spent on it including payments for legal fees and also weighed in as mentioned nearly two hundred thousand pounds was spent after he'd been removed from the country on checking his condition and ensuring that he wasn't being tortured the government committed to monitoring the tartar for up to three years and the last payment was made in twenty sixteen well i guess debated the issues raised by migrant deportations and in particular by the case of abu qatada. and the first place. should never have been granted asylum here by can one thousand four hundred when you think about it all the money all the wealth payments he and those around him are parasite off the u.k. a taxpayer until such times as he was deported your recipe is one for and the key you say should never have claimed asylum inherently we are at the hottie to the

convention like most civilized countries which means if somebody claims asylum and they can show a genuine fear of persecution we are obliged to grant them asylum for you to suggest that i am claiming i am my recipe is a suggestion for an icky what you're suggesting is a much greater suggestion for anarchy because you're suggesting it's appropriate that the you care taxpayer should pick up the bill for a terrorist mastermind he was going against the rule of involving u.k. no i don't know which is different because let me finish now and i on a second i gotta finish you're suggesting that the you care taxpayer should take to pick up the bill for a terrorist mastermind to come to the u.k. live off benefits and then when he does get deported back to jordan we further picked up an extra two hundred thousand now if that's not well nihilistic perhaps

is a better word than anarchistic but either way it's pretty imbecilic the fundamental fact is that this guy was by any definition an al-qaeda terrorist mastermind i'm glad that he was deported i mean i am disappointed that we've had to spend two hundred thousand pardons to look after his well for in jordan when that money could have been spent much better for example keith here in the u.k. looking after british victims of our qaeda violence wouldn't you agree with me with me on that point where would you like to see the want to spend on another universe or is victims who chose i'm only slightly disturbed david but. it seems to be that your opinion as to whether somebody is wrapped up in criminality or not is sufficient to convict them i actually like living by the really intelligent so if you rave if you were to accuse me i'm sure you are a criminal offense to serve i'd like to let me finish please if you were to accuse me of a criminal offense i would like to think that it wouldn't be you who decides on that it would be

a jury and the fact is that jordan already having him in his absence then had to acquit him when he was retried for exactly the same thing because it was discovered that the evidence was tainted now it's not you are missing with a great point to the matters as to whether you think he's a terrorist or not it's the rule of law room where the loot can be proved or not that's what matters but keith people keith with grip with great respect kate you seem to be ignoring the fact that it's not my opinion that he was a terrorist mastermind it's a matter of numerous reports by various heads of intelligence services if the intelligence service alleges somebody is a well known terrorist or something like that but if those countries yeah not provide the evidence to support those contentions then i'm afraid i'm not prepared to listen with deep credence to any intelligence service

is that alleges something against somebody simply because it suits them politically to do so in essence what keith saying must must be must be music from heaven to the years of any prospective terrorist wanting to get into the u.k. this guy was a he was a really bad rogue with the u.k. is far better off without them and yes nischelle point we should toughen up our laws much much more robust from to make sure that such wicked terrorists do not enter this country they can go to jordan or forever else they want but not in the united kingdom to be had here in r.t. a little earlier thang. watching us this afternoon don't forget we got plenty stories to our website you can find that.

with more make us manufacture against them instead of public wealth. when the running plus the project themselves. with the crime and merry go round we don't want. to ignore middle of the room. will say you will be in. your last years does. it with the people most of congress are not all what i mean.

i can make. you know they are local to get me from a week in which he has nothing to do by the fact. that you're in a government of your. own with you more with the very one with a number on the not. there were many fourths of the members but a few before we start to feel. 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 want to the old for 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 show you can afford to miss the one and only. and then i don't know how many. times i. think the battle of. he said.

how do. i. feel . hello my name's pizza and i've been living in bushnell for about seven years and this is a film about just some of the crazy things i've got soaps are in the time. the stimulus. bullshit. but this is what fulfilled will still be before we move so sue me as you can stuff. you wouldn't believe it but this beside the area

a place called should make you feel you might expect to see some maybe a minor. would definitely help people in the swimming kids. would you like to kill bugs look at each them look good wouldn't you begin to make . sure you get those character first every spring and thousands of people still kids just you don't bounce in your mind . so in just behind the stuff ok yeah. well. it's almost impossible to get any would still be the associates i use the leisure thanks to all the kind little. girl you see of me this is your business you will. see does not mean that you are going. to do something with it. so would just behind the stuff outside so would just behind the stop.
