3:07 am
as well and it's not unusual on any given day to see a politician maybe a member of parliament or even a senior minister simply walk out of here and towards abingdon green here where they might be taking part in a t.v. debate or an interview but that practice is increasingly under. so let's as the atmosphere here turns increasing in time over the impending gregg's that day and the fact that there is no agreed family action in place this was an a subaru trying to leave after the interview. but you are going to lose it whenever you see the politicians aren't the only ones getting abuse from agitated members of the public sky news anchor kay burley was heckled by pro brags that protestors while live on the air. her out of the heart of the earth and owen jones a leftwing journalist and author was taunted by
3:08 am
a group of right wing protesters believe everything to go with whatever was right surely this situation outside parliament has now become an issue for parliament to deal with i must tell you to the house that it is frankly in total if members of parliament and journalists. go about their business in fear. this situation cannot stand over sixty politicians have written a letter to london's chief of police warning of the deteriorating security situation around parliament and demanding better protection some of the decisions of said that a certain degree of abuse or heckling simply because of the territory of being a elected politician or just a public figure in a functioning democracy but the police here now have the right moment difficult
3:09 am
task of balancing the supreme them to protest of some with protecting the safety of others including mine. on the border outside the palace of westminster that well u.k. historian and commentator addle darwish told us he thinks different opinion should be celebrated and supported across british society. we have always been divided as a society our politics is divided our courts are divided if you look at our parliament it's actually two rows confronting each other but what's new is now you have a generation of a very thin skinned snowflakes the whole are professionally insulted then you get all so trying to exploit this division to put your point of view delay briggs's and so on so so we again journalist are to blame for playing this round rather than actually serious minded people see their women we can always have fun we can always
3:10 am
sort of throw to ridicule each other's ideas but we've been civilised with now it is. beyond actually any mission and there's a lesson for everybody there you should not law when you were born and be virtually at invariably abused we should all stand up and say yes we have freedom of expression but also freedom to express our views without being insulted. specialist hazardous material teams are at work in a number of international consulates in the australian cities of melbourne and canberra of the schools of suspicious packages were delivered to the offices some of the properties have been evacuated all locked down according to reports up to twenty two sites have been targeted the diplomatic offices of pakistan the united states britain spain and greece are believed to be among them a worker of the pakistani embassy says he discovered three packages containing an unknown powder when he opened the mail the authorities say other consulates received similar passes. the british study on the root causes of
3:11 am
radicalization has shown that a feeling of social exclusion and isolation are among the main contributing factors one of the researchers behind the study told us they wanted to work the standard what pushes people over the edge. every time there's a terrorist attack for everyone to risk there are dozens of sympathizers who do not go over. so what we want to do was find some people who basically had suit of peace with some of the oh you released movements that are championed by jarvis causes but are not yet going over the edge of limits and want to see what pushes the suit of clothes or into someone who might be more ready to act. and that's where our experiment came in we were looking at a variety of factors specifically the rule social exclusion people feel socially excluded they're more likely to start sacrificing their non stupid values and once those values become sacred it's
3:12 am
a very difficult point to persuade that person to the person they're moving closer and closer to it. so the main motivation was just let's try to combine graphic research survey research in neuroscience all together so that was the motivation or here's how they did it a group of thirty eight young muslim men living in and around barcelona who sympathize with radical jihadist ideologies agreed to undergo tests their brains were scanned as they played a computer game that simulated social exclusion researchers concluded that the men were far more likely to attach a sacred status to some issues there were also important to them before going all the way to seeing them is worth fighting for the study claims to dispel a common misconceptions that poverty religious conservatism or even psychosis are the main contributing factors to radicalization the things how many again says that the role of other external factors should not be underestimated. people are somehow thinking we're saying that. social exclusion is the only reason for white people
3:13 am
radical and that's absolutely not true radicalization is a complex system with many factors coalescing together feel discriminated against can be a triggering event many people who go and carry an act of violence when you ask them what was the triggering event that made you go i'm going to get out of my house and carry an act of terrorism is usually because i experienced discrimination that's not to discount the all recruiter all of radicalizing narratives or the rule of foreign policy. allowed to get a foothold in certain areas but this is one crucial thing at the community level equality maker should be more focused. on the latest in a series of document leaks claiming to be from the u.k. funded influence network integrity initiative has once again exposed how the group plan to counter so-called russian propaganda british opposition m.p. chris williamson whose party leaders also be target allegedly targeted by the organization conducted his own investigation into how the integrity initiative and its parent organization institute of statecraft operate he shares his findings in
3:14 am
today's going underground on r.t. . what was it like you went to the registered address of the institute whether to their return addresses the they have a registered address in scotland and it's at the end of this remote dirt track actually it was the dead of night when we arrived there and it was rather spooky i've got to say and when i reached the end of the track i was confronted with this derelict mill there wanted to lights all the in a couple of the units there and did speak to some of the people who had businesses located. at the mill they've never heard of the introduced a craft one of them said he'd doubted mentioned something that was in the newspaper about some shady organization based in which the village close by but that was as much as he knew about it then went to the offices in london just the temple station and then on this is a state funded organization bearing in mind as well i am
3:15 am
a member of parliament here and therefore because we were being stonewalled by ministers in terms of the written palm and three questions and indeed the oral questions that we that we tabled on the floor of the house of commons of that will try and ask questions directly to the organizations if they can clarify anything and i was met with a very hostile reception i mean shouted out the door slammed in my face now for an organization which is receiving nearly two and a half million pounds in the last eighteen months from the government in this country to the taxpayer from the taxpayer up saluted to treat a member of parliament in that way. poses a number of questions as. well the integrity initiative earlier admitted its documents had been hacked but denied any covert type of activities meanwhile the latest batch of documents suggest the group's been discussing plans to counter russian and chinese propaganda by getting the film industry on board. investigates where good films turn into propaganda we've shown you papers that could shed light
3:16 am
on how taxes paid by p. . people in this country may be used to stop what russia is up to there and way beyond by all means a freshly leagues memo could help clarify the very means we'll need to go beyond old style military room and get entertainment out puts the draw around the nature of the twenty first century conflict diffuse across society without clear boundaries at times are now no one can say for sure who wrote it but this very false title bears the name victoria darrow he's a leading researcher at the parent body of integrity initiative and his name has been seen earlier leaks anyway the author whatever it really was once to get as many of the elements of the entertainment industry as possible on board all in a bid to deal with all that propaganda from authoritarian strongholds i.e.
3:17 am
russia china and others and the how to use segment he suggests that experts should articulate how u.s. and other global entertainment powerhouses can improve and coordinate so that output messaging converges to boast a shared democratic values but with locally relevant content see it's ok to feed people propaganda through movies t.v. shows music as long as it's the right propaganda let's read further into the paper it would be a grave oversight so i feel to focus exclusively on the usa the five eyes countries the u.s. u.k. canada australia and new zealand have unrivaled influence let's not forget other cool players worldwide even russian and chinese entertainment communities should not be out of bounds for western supports for example the fantastic russian film
3:18 am
leviathan. hold on leviathan that was the movie that beat the hell out of corrupt russian state and church officials. the fact is more than a third of its budget came from russia's government hoops but even without getting experts like martha bales and nick call r t's written to them by the way to find out if and how they're involved without getting these experts publicly or privately before relevant government committees and the core markets above hasn't the western entertainment industry already been drawing a backwards or even evil image of russia for decades. simple yes. i little to no.
3:19 am
from this day forward you all the time spent. with ins include struggle with how well if that's not enough it might be up to the u.k. foreign office to spend some of its cash on making directors come up with scarier stuff that's of course if the leak files are real. to the united states are at loggerheads over the codes in syria it's an extortion after the break.
3:20 am
the most important moments are when the principals the minister or the president actually ask your opinion when that happens you are on your own and. as the two you actually. have to say what you think. back tension between the united states and turkey is growing over the american
3:21 am
troop withdrawal from syria president to unsnap the u.s. national security adviser on his recent trip to ankara slamming the conditions that have now been set for the pool at the new hawkins has the story. to leave or not to leave that is the question or more specifically when and how as a syrian civil war draws to a close the situation in the north of the country is anything but calm it's a game of chess every player has a piece and the situation is not just black versus white and the kurdish question is once again central with john bolton visiting turkey and israel to mediate a settlement the turkish president made it very clear that any shots of a compromise is slim. because john bolton has made a grave mistake it is not possible to accept or swallow the message given by bolton from israel those who are in the terror corridor in syria who learn the necessary lessons for us there is no difference between the white p g p y d the p k k and diet we will very soon take action to neutralize the terrorist groups in syria. as
3:22 am
nato allies the national security adviser had hoped the us and turkey could coordinate their actions striking a balance of national interests and protecting those who are allies one day and the divisive burden the next. objectives that we want to accomplish that condition the withdrawal we don't think the turks ought to undertake military action that is not fully coordinated with and agreed to by the united states so that they meet the president's requirement that the syrian opposition forces that have fought with us and not endangered. with turkish troops already on syrian soil and anger ready to push further these opposition forces feel anything but safe until now of course the presence of u.s. forces in the area has been a restraining factor on turkish ambitions to eliminate any armed kurdish groups they view as terrorists but the power balance could change at any moment given
3:23 am
trumps the terminations to bring troops home so our boy our young women our men they're all coming back and they're coming back now there will be a strong deliberate and orderly withdrawal of u.s. forces from syria very deliberate very orderly as regional interests clash once again the future of the kurds viewed by many as yesterday's liberators and the brain of eisel now hangs in the balance we sounded out a couple of regional experts who say turkey is frustrated because members of the team don't seem to be on the same page over syria. totally disappointed that from what is going on from their perspective maybe bolton is not representing president because president from the same something else and bolton is saying something goes from turkey's perspective there is no distinction between k. and p. why the from their perspective this is a terrorist entity and they want to clear this whole corydoras the whole northern
3:24 am
syrian kori door from this entity and this is a huge headache for them this is a very pressing national security matter for turkey so it's not like it has a second decision national security is paramount to the country's health now we look at what bolton saying and especially right before he comes to meet with the turkish officials and he basically crosses a red line when he's in israel the night before he comes to turkey and i don't understand what he was expecting in negotiations with turkey today but he definitely was expecting what he got in turkey is not going to bow down to the u.s. . israel's security service is denying claims that it violated the rights of five jewish teenagers suspected of involvement in the murder of a palestinian woman three months ago the victim. was forty seven year old mother of eight she was in a car with her husband and daughter in the west bank when she was hit in the head.
3:25 am
the husband described the scene. it felt like an explosion in the car windows smashed my cost swerved and my wife fell on to me blood was coming out of a nose and ears my little daughter was crying for her mother for a few seconds i couldn't understand what had happened then i regained control of the car and called nonviolence they told me to keep driving and we could get to the hospital in thirty five to forty minutes i kept driving and when i got there they told me she was already dead. the family is still coming to terms with their loss like an october palestinian president mahmoud abbas. but the crime would not go unpunished however the youngsters lawyers say the teenagers were interrogated excessively i also deny any wrongdoing. as we have asserted from the start not connected in any way to the case the shin bet security service had no evidence connecting the suspects to the act. israel's security service says the youngsters
3:26 am
all suspected of terror offenses including murder it added that seven points to the quote design astounding stream nature of the suspects the security service is accused of using extraordinary methods against the teams such as administrative detention and delaying that access to noise such methods would usually reserved for palestinians who are accused of terrorism. ok that's it for now thanks for watching your next update is off the boom bust. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or something want to be that's. actually going to be close this is what it looks like three in the morning
3:27 am
can't be good. i'm interested always in the water. seemed wrong. but. just don't call. me. yet to say proud just become educated and engage me because of the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just a look for common ground. nobody could see coming that paul's confession this would be that profile in the spot pushed up wrongful conviction. had any interest a shoot out there what will see is thread promise threat promise threat lie a lie a lie the process of interrogation is designed to put people in just that frame of
3:28 am
mind make the most comfortable makes them want to get out and don't take no for an answer don't accept their denials she said their forwards are already set on the statement that i will be home by that time the next day there's a culture on accountability and police officers know that they can engage in misconduct that has nothing to do with solving their crime. problem. this is boom bust broadcasting around the world and covering the world of film

loose in finance and the impact on all of us i'm bart chilton in washington d.c. thank you so much for joining we are glad you're on board coming up the day we take a look at the good the bad and the ugly of kryptos with christie are a pair of part plus the massive consumer a what trauma show begins in las vegas today how in cook most of the big picture is there will give us a report and later we look at how some nations around the world fund education and the student loan debt in the united states remington a grade of public citizen joins them all of that directly ahead but first let's get some headlines let's go. and unforseen error slowing the united states economy leads our global report today as analyst at two major players in global finance say the partial government shutdown is taking a measurable bite out of growth and may leave the federal reserve flying blind on interest rates bank of america merrill lynch says the partial shutdown of seven of

thirteen federal agencies which has left eight hundred thousand federal workers unsure of when their next paycheck will rise shed a tenth of a percent off of merrill's estimate of u.s. growth for the fourth quarter of last year reducing that estimate estimated g.d.p. to two point eight percent meanwhile economist at deutsche bank raised a key practical problem pointing out that the u.s. federal reserve which has touted data depended as a principal of decision making could be deprived of key data points from government sources including durable goods orders and new home sales if the shutdown drags on while i tenth of a percent off of the expected g.d.p. may not seem like a lot these teen numbers are critical giving the increasingly precarious position in which many see the u.s. economy and as a refresher the quarterly g.d.p. last year was two point two percent in q one and that jumped or jerked rather up to four point two percent in q.
