5:02 am
refused to acknowledge the crisis president trump mustapha holding nothing people hostage might stop manufacturing a crisis stoked fear and divert attention from the turmoil in his administration and must reopen the government the federal government remains shut down for one reason and one reason only because democrats will not fund border security no president should pound the table and demand he gets his way or else the government shuts down senator chuck schumer has repeatedly supported a physical barrier in the past along with many other democrats they change their mind only after i was elected president kind of open now takes a closer look at how the u.s. government crisis unfolded before heard the highly anticipated prime time address
5:03 am
from the president of the united states donald trump now in the speech trump tried to make his case for the five point seven billion dollars he needs to build his border wall now he emphasized the flow of drugs into the united states furthermore he made reference to the m.s. thirteen criminal gang and also highlighted crimes committed by people who had entered the country illegally from did stop short of calling for the national emergency as many people had anticipated that he might do but he did call on people in the united states and american citizens and viewers to call their congressional representatives and ask them to fund his wall in order to end what he called a cycle of suffering the wall has been a very big part of donald trump's political identity it was mentioned all throughout his presidential campaign and sense he's taken office building the wall we're building the wall folks with building a big beautiful powerful wall a great great wall and it's going to be a real war it's going to be i was going to be beautiful it's going to be one of
5:04 am
your next. would build the greatest one you have ever seen why do wealthy politicians build walls fences and gates around their homes they don't build walls because they hate the people on the butt because they love the people on the inside and there was also a rebuttal from democratic party leaders nancy pelosi and chuck schumer they did respond to the president's remarks they accuse the president of engaging in quote government by temper tantrum and of holding the nation hostage there is expected to be a meeting between the president and the congressional leaders shortly and that will prosody clarify some of this but at the moment there seems to be a pretty big political gap in the united states with many people enthusiastically supporting the president's call for a wall and many people enthusiastically opposing it and the two not really seeing eye to eye on anything and not really being willing to compromise when it comes to the funding issue well you know what comes out of that congressional hearing when
5:05 am
it happens with maine time american political commentator steve malzberg and form a florida state democratic party chairman it sees a debate at the meaning of trump's address he hit on every note and you know what's holding all this up you know it's shit keeping the government shutdown and holding all this up is the fact that nancy pelosi says no wall not one penny that's not negotiating this was a purely political attempt to help you sagging poll numbers where sixty three percent of the people in america now say they don't want the war and they want to turn back on his statements about mexico is still going to pay for the wall because of tariffs that's nonsense we're lowering the tariffs would be less money coming in it's exactly the opposite almost every democrat including schumer voted for a fence a few years ago with obama and love the fence and make speeches about how they need a wall obama made speeches about it now it's immoral because it's trump who wants it so please trump will declare
5:06 am
a national emergency reopen the. government to take the funding from the military and guess what the democrats won't like that either so nothing done or tried to do they won't negotiate with them any movie makes are going to criticize so you know it is what it is that's the political reality today when i think backs of times of presidents democrat or republican who asked for national time like candy during the cuban missile crisis or obama when we killed osama bin ladin or bush with nine eleven those were real national situations the problem is is that when we have a real national crisis two thirds of this country will not believe president trump based on all his past behavior. british m.p.'s and journalists running a gauntlet of public disapproval on their way to work activist frustrated to the humbling of the u.k.'s exit from the e.u. a gathering outside parliament to confront m.p.'s in an increasingly aggressive way and i reports meet on a super e.
5:07 am
cheese a conservative politician and a vocal opponent of bragg's it but this week some of her opponents came to westminster and got more vocal than her. right foot up early on if you were offended by the irish times i think this is astonishing this is this is what has happened to our country something has happened the debate over how britain's departure from the e.u. should look or whether it should take place until now has turned rather ugly this is the palace of westminster is where british politicians work and the area around it is a public street as you can see anybody can walk down here that can be demonstrators 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 threat as the atom.
5:08 am
spearhead turns increasing in time over the impending gregg's that day and the fact that there is no agreed on election in place this was an a subaru trying to leave after the interview. that 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 protesters while live on air oh oh. oh oh oh oh oh and owen jones a left wing journalist and author was taunted by a group of right wing protesters i believe everything you go with. the right sure it's the situation outside parliament has now become an issue for parliament to deal with i must say to the house that it is frankly in total if members
5:09 am
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 systems 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 rahman typical task of balancing the supreme them to protest of some with protecting the safety of others including mine. guards like the palace of westminster u.k. historian and commentator darwish told us he thinks different opinion should be celebrated and supported across british society. we have always been divided as
5:10 am
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 very thin skinned snowflakes the whole are poor officially insulted then you get also ryan to exploit this division to put your point of view delay briggs's and so on so so we are in journalist are to blame for playing this on the rather than actually serious minded people say they're women we can always have fun we can always sort of throw to the really cute each other's ideas but we've been civilised with now it is. beyond actually any mission and it's a lesson for everybody that you should not law when you portland's be virtually at
5:11 am
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 who are deployed to a number of international consulates in the australian cities of melbourne in canberra on wednesday after scores of suspicious packages were delivered to the offices some of the properties had to be evacuated hall knocked down according to reports up to twenty two sites are being targeted the diplomatic offices of pakistan the united states switzerland india and new zealand were among them i work with a pakistani embassy says he discovered three packages containing an unknown powder when you open the mail with or to say other concerts received similar passes. a british study on the root causes of radicalization has shown that feelings of social exclusion and isolation are among the main contributing factors one of the researches behind the study told us they wanted to understand what pushes people over the edge. every treated as
5:12 am
a terrorist threat really want to risk dozens of sympathizers who do not globally and so. i want to do was find some people who basically had sympathies of with some of the oh you do these movements that are championed by jarvis causes but are not yet going over the edge of limits and want to see what pushes the sympathizer into someone who might be more ready to act violent 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 a very difficult point to persuade that person to go shit with that person they're moving closer and closer to it. so the main motivation was just let's try to combine ethnographic research survey research in neuroscience all together so that was the motivation. so here's how they did it a group of thirty eight young muslim men living in and around barcelona who
5:13 am
sympathized with the radical jihadist ideology agreed to undergo tests their brains were scanned as they played a computer game that simulated social exclusion the researchers concluded that the men were far more likely to attach a sacred status to some issues that were not so important to them before going all the way to saying them is worth fighting for. and the study claims to dispel common conceptions third poverty brinavess conservatism or even psychosis are the main contributing factors to radicalization things have made again says 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 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
5:14 am
that's not to discount the wall of the recruiter or the wall 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 that i think policymakers should be more focused. tension between the united states and turkey is growing over the american troop withdrawal from syria president of the us national security advisor on his visit to ankara recently slamming the conditions that have now been set for the pullout that 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 vs white and the kurdish question is once again central with john bolton visiting turkey and israel to mediate
5:15 am
a settlement the turkish president made it very clear that any shots of a compromise is slim. call john bolton has made a grave mistake it is not possible to accept or swallow the message given by bolton from israel but those who are in the terror corridor in syria will learn the necessary lessons yet for us there is no difference between the white e.g. p y d p k k and his diocese we will very soon take action to neutralize the terrorist groups in syria. as nato allies the national security adviser had hoped the u.s. and turkey could coordinate their actions striking a balance of national interests and protecting those who are allies one day and a divisive burden the next now objectives that we want to accomplish that condition the withdrawal we don't think the turks ought to undertake military action that's 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
5:16 am
and not endangered. with turkish troops already on syrian soil and ankara 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 now change at any moment given trump the terminations to bring troops home so our boys 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 if you are sure of the kurds viewed by many as yesterday's liberators and the brain of eisel now hangs in the balance of the turkish foreign minister has some other ideas on how to make the united states departure less dangerous. the u.s.
5:17 am
faces some difficulties in the process of withdrawing troops from syria we want to coordinate this process with russia and iran it is necessary not to allow terrorists to occupy the territory after u.s. troops leave. or we sounded out a couple of regional experts who say turkey is frustrated because members of trump's team don't seem to be on the same page over syria. and totally disappointed that from what is going on from their perspective maybe bolton is not representing the president because president from the same something goals and bolton is saying something goes from turkey's perspective there is no distinction between p. and p. why the from their perspective this is a terrorist entity and they want to clear this whole corydoras the whole northern syrian corydoras 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
5:18 am
a second decision national security is paramount to the country's health now we look at what both and 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 was expecting what he got in turkey is not going to bow down to the u.s. . or british opposition m.p. is on a mission to find out how are you k. anti propaganda group and its parent organization operate his party and its leader have been allegedly targeted by the u.k. funded integrity initiative the group portrays itself as a tool to counter edition from asian and malign foreign influence chris williamson shares his findings in today's going underground on r.t. . well it's not a figment of imagination this organization definitely exists these lists exist we
5:19 am
know the. song into operation for example into the. woods the preferred candidate for the spanish director of homeland security has written to the spanish wives wrote to the spanish prime minister about this because one earth is a state funded british funded organization doing interfering in the internal governmental appointments in a fellow european democracy this. it is an absolute democratic outrage and therefore a little bit troubled and surprised frankly that we're not seeing any real people in the the mainstream media in this country there's been a passing reference on the b.b.c. to this issue of the the government ministers seem to be trying their very best to close this story down saying there's no truth in it is complete sort fabrication and so on but we know from these documents we know as well from my own sort of investigations and visit to the in stupid state i want to hear about what was it like what you went to the registered address of the institute whether to their return addresses they have
5:20 am
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 truck i was confronted with this derelict mill there wanted to lights all me 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 news paper about some shady organization based in. the village close by but that was as much as he knew about it then went to their offices in london and just need a temple station on this is a state funded organization bearing in mind as well i 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 the oral questions
5:21 am
that we that we tabled before the house of commons of that will try and ask him 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 to from the taxpayer up saluted to. treece a member of parliament in that way. poses a number of questions and. meanwhile fresh leaks suggests that integrity initiative has been discussing plans to counter russian and chinese propaganda by getting the film industry on board it was only a claim to the group about a team of journalists and academics working to tackle alleged russian just information by manipulating the media here to trying to investigate a good film turns into propaganda we've shown you papers that could shed light on how taxes paid by people in this country may be used to stop what russia is up to
5:22 am
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 out the nature of twenty first century conflict diffuse across society without clear boundaries at times for 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 in 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. russia china and others in the how to use segment he suggests that experts should
5:23 am
articulate how u.s. and other global entertainment powerhouses can improve and coordinate so that output messaging converges to both the 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 core players worldwide even russian and chinese entertainment communities should not be out of bounds for western support for example the fantastic russian film leviathan. hold on leviathan that was the movie that beat the hell out of corrupt russian state and church officials.
5:24 am
the fact is more than a third of its budget came from russia's government hoops hasn't the western entertainment industry already been drawing a backwards or even evil image of russia for decades. the simple. little bit. from this day forward you will become spends. include struggle of 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 league files are real. israel's security service is denying claims that it violated the rights of five
