rejecting teresa mayes request for three months. twenty second deadline with strings. good morning friday morning twenty second of march live from r.t. h.q. is just past nine am here now it's kevin irwin here with a thirty minute live update for you first a bombshell report tell you about revealing a group of american mercenaries and legally traveled to haiti to help the caribbean countries president consolidate power they were arrested there in february but then released without facing further charge it's a tough rivalry in the haitian government right now and protracted anti-government protests in that country.

just wanted mr madoff to give it up these men or most scenarios he says they were here to attack part of the executive branch of the government's. seen those reports due to privacy considerations we're unable to comment further they were apparently going to transfer eighty million dollars out of the petrel caribbean account in haiti in the bank to another account which would be under the control president show from elmo we the petro caribbean account required

authorization if you will from moe use his then prime minister. and the bank president by day in dubois so this was apparently their mission they entered haiti many of them without stamping their passport without going through immigration without going through customs they had come in with weapons which is a violation not just of u.s. law but haitian law pressure from the u.s. embassy had them released in a completely illegal manner are you able now that the piece is released had to disclose your source and if not why not i spent a week in haiti speaking to. he should police officials justice department officials people. with any connection who have any knowledge at all of

this operation secure disclose or source the. requested anonymity. so we have to protect our sources earlier one of the u.s. mercenaries published an instagram post which was later deleted saying the contract is were used as a quote pawns in a public fight between the haitian president and prime minister footnote to that the pm was dismissed on monday opposition protesters in haiti remain angry of a skyrocketing inflation alleged government corruption they blame the current president was sworn in in february twenty seventh seen on a pledge to bring more jobs and improve living conditions now u.s. senator marco rubio was in the country on thursday haiti's new prime minister was appointed by the president the same day author of the report came eyes again says the u.s. attempts to influence haitian politics will spark further outrage in the country. added certain irritants or certain combustibility to this situation.

they really arrived on the last day of the latest spasm of. demonstrations the prime minister in fact when he was voted out by the deputies was in front of the senate. answering for what happened with these mercenaries so i think yes the whole mercenary story has played a role one from the questions everybody had about it and now that our story has come out and basically. torn off the lid or pulled back the curtain on this story i think that this is going to create even more rigid more consternation. on the part of the haitian people. students at king's college london claim they were barred from attending classes because they were pro palestinian activists they

were told it was because of security reasons on the face of it during a visit by the queen polly boyd who spoke to one of the students involved. i went into uni like you know for my eleven am that shows like temple be emotionless time it was i walked in and i got my id card i tapped on the barrier and it wouldn't it wouldn't work the body wouldn't open i talked about three times and by the time i kind of psych to myself i knew that this was intentional marines a student at king's college london but for one day this week she wasn't she was barred while kings was hosting the queen. around the time of this grand entrance on the all those signs of the building the second year religion and politics student was having this conversation with security guards in the armored car the spin room sort of course. so your request. really stressful to police protocol to be. there not profiling is what they did

she wasn't the only one experiencing this issue. it was here that marine try to get into her university for a second time but she says she was told by security guards here that she was one of several students who had been barred from her own university for the duration of the queen's visit now marina and her friends say that they've been politically profiled for their history of peaceful demonstrations over issues. such as palestine demos like this was not very early was are you going to you are the you're the one thing is not ok i don't know who you mean doesn't have a criminal record she claims she was just singled out by her university for being a politically minded muslim woman i must be paying student i pay nine thousand

pounds right and i'm i'm not allowed to go to my lecture because i mccurry a security got to the queen. outrageous since the incident the students have staged more protests highlighting what happened to them and demanding on it says. king's college london is one of the u.k.'s oldest universities that occupies several buildings in central london and the queen and the duchess of cambridge were here opening this new building bush house now r.t. perch the students allegations to the university and the response we got was simply that there was an event here that required the highest level of security we had an event on tuesday which demanded the highest level of security and we had to minimize movement three buildings for security reasons at

a time some of our buildings were not successful the metropolitan police told r.t. that they don't comment on security issues but marine says that talking about political issues shouldn't make her a security. elsewhere in the world smalling breaking with decades of u.s. policy president trump says it's time the u.s. fully recognizes the occupied golan heights as part of israel the region will struggles israel lebanon syria and jordan was onyx from syria after the six day war back in one hundred sixty seven were already took in the arab league have reacted to the u.s. announcement reiterating their support for syria has the latest this morning. donald trump's support for israel has taken some new heights and that would be the golan heights and it now seems that despite the un and syria and others recognizing this territory as belonging to syria donald trump wants it to be recognized as part of israel let's take

a listen to what he tweeted out of the fifty two year time for the united states to fully recognize israel so vinci over the golan heights which is of critical strategic and security importance the state of israel and regional stability now this announcement on twitter came as mike pompei zero the top diplomat of the united states secretary of state was meeting with the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu he expressed a huge amount of gratitude for this gift of recognizing golan heights and its time when the run cease to syria as a platform to destroy israel trump boldly recognize israel is sovereignty in the golan heights thank you president trump now in its annual human rights report the u.s.a. described palestinian territories not as israeli occupied but rather as israeli controlled and we recently saw mike pump aoe take the unprecedented move as u.s. secretary of state and actually visit the western wall in jerusalem now at this

point the world is well aware that benjamin netanyahu is facing an election that will determine whether or not he remains the prime minister of israel and some have interpreted donald trump's moves as essential trying to help netanyahu showing u.s. support for netanyahu taking unprecedented steps in pro israeli stances by the united states as a whole and people wonder if this could lead to an escalation in the region this week sterling is a member of the syrian solidarity movement told to move doesn't bode well for the for job region and risks prolonging the conflict in syria to. what this decision and this group from the trumpet ministration is going to do is instead of be increasing regional stability it's going to undermine it it's going to prolong the conflict in syria it's going to teach stabilize the region rather than. in helping it basically seems to do take moves that are in line with what benjamin

netanyahu wants an casino mogul show that enables that war so this is just a continuation where they move the u.s. embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem where they have as the u.s. to stop funding of the new and it built nations relief works agency where the united states with rule unilaterally from the iran agreement and this is continuing a very dangerous trend under not undermining international law and. agreement. your opinion interjected teresa mayes request for a three month delay to brecht's it after a summit in brussels the eaves offering a shorter postponement instead of only on the condition that the british parliament approves the unpopular with drool deal pain state negotiated by the prime minister in brussels daniel hawkins is in berlin this morning with the latest. it was certainly a long nights of discussion debate said decision making and chopping and changing plans multiple times at the e.u.

council summit and finally a decision was reached officially and a final offer to to reason may and the u.k. for its plans for spotting that deadline article fifty until the twenty second of may conditional on to resume my passing up a lot in parliament of course it's already been rejected twice by big majorities humiliating defeat for the conservative government and it's probably for that reason that the e.u. council added these conditions at the condition that surpasses that through if not they voted the option of a second extension up until the. twelfth of april and i was the u.k. chooses to go for that second extension of the reason may fail to put our plan through parliament that is widely expected the u.k. will have to come up with some sort of plan with some sort of offer to continue that process in which case they will have to agree to participate in the european parliamentary elections but of course that would be rather silly and rather pointless because the u.k.

is of course leaving the european union as the reason may stated in her press conference donald to scans on produce good coming out saying the atmosphere was positive on the talks had been constructive perhaps those showing a few signs of tiredness and strain getting a few of their dates mixed up. there if you have a girl still a greece still an extension until the. twentieth of april. not . to if they get. on to the very.

thing to close. the hole is still empty in the end it means that that little space is. this is out international good morning for me kevin and the rest the t.v. this morning in the stories ahead after the break is lovely stateroom from syria and transgender debates in the u.k. just a few of the stories we've got lined up for you. 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 bats and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle

for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. will make this manufactured consent instant to the public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. when the final merry go round lifts only the one percent. can all middle of the room signal. room real new real world. after weeks of intense fighting u.s. but kurdish forces say they've taken control of islamic states final stronghold in

syria. the syrian democratic forces encircled the village of babus in eastern syria earlier in the and in recent weeks launched a final push to drive out the eyes of fighters around thirty seven thousand civilians reportedly fled the area since january people lived under eisel rule still recovering from the trauma next for you this morning the story of one is a woman who spent three years as an eyesore slave. this is his her. own near. where more than you know and he lives and. the reasons are more clear now that. there was

a good nor couple as i got the. visit got it all is clear indium and that is good on the school system and the since our school. despite ourselves apparent defeat the her maining terrorists are still putting up a fight some of the militants are said to be hiding along the euphrates river the u.s. president those already declared victory many times as a senior correspondent were gusty of reports. it was only a matter of four isis is lost on klav stronghold was destroyed liberated and it is happened isis has been cleansed from the village of but it's lost castle in syria. has crumbled say some others say that that isn't true and that they're still fighting but what the heck trump says he won. so what happens is this is all isis now on the bottom that's as of today this is

isis there's none the caliphate is gone as of tonight. boiled what can you say mission accomplished again the strangest thing they keep beating isis destroying its last stronghold again and again and again the coalition to defeat isis has liberated very close to one hundred percent of the territory we've done a great job with those as we have just absolutely decimated isis we have won against isis we've beaten them and we've beaten him badly the isis caliphate. has been decimated in another short period of time like hours you'll be hearing hours and days you'll be hearing about the caliphate it was one hundred percent defeated so is this it or are we going to see another epic final battle between the

forces of good and isis no one seems to know my gut feeling having been in iraq in syria for so long seen what i've seen of isis is no not even close out in the desert there and holds hiding underground there in baghdad in damascus leaking their wounds but that's just my opinion and a whole lot of other reporters and experts for now though if we believe that the forces of good have finally won what is next in question that america's allies such as france really want a non-citizen. mrs polly france's defense minister went to the u.s. to get answers to various questions if by chance the american military presence would be maintained what would be the contours of its presence what would the

mission be we do not have these answers yet it is on the basis of information that we don't have yet that president macron will determine the possibility of a french contribution on top of everything else in the murderers and maniacs that made up isis even if the organization is dead those individuals are not they've apparently gone back to their roots back where they began in mosul which the u.s. led coalition for all intents and purposes carpet bombed tens of thousands of civilians dead in the crossfire the isis zealots have apparently gone back to basics extortionists assassins thugs and guns for hire. isis is using the same preety fourteen style and most threatening people to pay by sending a message by envelope pay or die they threaten businessmen doctors etc congratulations

donald you've won you've beaten the isis again and bets are now on how long do you think it'll be before trump declares his next last victory over isis again he always wants to be in advance he doesn't have. a very good relation with the troof are you not he likes to extend the true for r. in the lies of the thought and he wants he always wants to compare himself with barack obama and think that he was the one that. says in a very short time but it still hasn't finished and. this is not finished is finished in the land of syria in iraq are thought by this theory that for our eyes this continues i think in other places such as. thinking about his relation. to transgender rights campaigner in the u.k. fired up public opinion of me susie green reported

a catholic journalist to the police over what she described as vile and hateful tweets following an appearance on a popular morning t.v. show footnote all this for we go on she's withdrawn the complaint but the debate rages on. if i'd continue to complain then caroline farrow would have had the platform to continue to spread misinformation about what actually happened on this occasion because obviously being involved in an investigation would have meant that i couldn't talk about what would actually be put on lie by a journalist with this social media platform that i wouldn't have been able to discuss it because it could have gone against any possible court case. or is call it a complicated story to get ahead or let me give the backstory to it susie green runs mermaid's a u.k. charity for transgender children her own child her gender reassignment surgery at the age of sixteen and she's reported caroline farrow the latest talk about their catholic journalist to police for a series of tweets which criticize greene for allowing her child to undergo the sex

change procedure green claimed the tweets would choose the word like mutilate and castrate constituted a hate crime what carolyn fire actually debated transgenderism with green on t.v. morning show good morning britain before posting these tweets that she was on about there shortly after she says she was contacted by police for miss gendering green's daughter the journalist no claims therefore she is the victim of a public which up. meanwhile a group of people have terrified and harassed my family docs my children made violent and sexual threats sign up to porn accounts did the same to my husband threaten to visit him and tumbleweed so we put this issue up for debate to feel like with a talk show host john gorton human rights campaign of peta tuttle's his work about it. kara is a devout catholic i met him many times interviewed her she's

a devout catholic she has an absolute right to hold a view of saying i don't accept this just like a muslim person and they couldn't accept either so let's have respect both sides is absolute nonsense that the police of got caroline should have be respectful of the design of that trans woman to be referred to as she. even if she doesn't approve of it you know reflecting someone's chosen gender that is not a big deal it doesn't imply support or endorsement it's just about common decency and respect there is this increasing tendency for the police to be bought in to deal with what some people find offensive right now in human. there is no right to not be offended you know offense is part and parcel of open debate now i'm glad that we live in

a free society where people can express their opinions and what caroline foer said was not stirring hatred or discrimination or violence against trans people she was simply in my view disrespectfully refusing to use the term she to a trans woman look she went through a difficult time with her boy who then thought she was a woman and is a woman now abusing but i do think there is a kind of pressure on. everyone there we have to conform to this new language i think that's deplorable but don't think it's a matter for police intervention you know there are serious crimes serious hate crimes out there violence discrimination how distant which the police should be focusing on not what individual people may say if we close down debate on the most important debate channel in the world. social media and facebook then we're going

to live in very dangerous times and are we really going to allow the new oligarchs of the media world facebook and twitter to be our lord chamberlain's surely we should be grown up and talk about it nine twenty seven the morning just the way some the world these stories are putting out so far this friday morning twenty second of march i'm kevin owen thank you for watching just tipoff what's coming up next we think you'll enjoy it so even philosopher and frequent r.t. guess leverage egypt's going to birthday turn seventy for the occasion he made a special program about embracing the q. and a session for the course of his own strong personal opinions and it's next. you need regulations and well long with the invisible hand because when you every

respond to gether they will try to fix prices in the us. that will end up with market fundamentals really believe in price and price manipulation even more so the profits because profits are the result of the accounting and the accounting is the result of the four big accounting firms that you can pay to have any result you want. most people think just stand out in this business you need to be the first one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest dream in truth to stand out of the news business you just need the right questions and demand the right answer. questions.

so you can on the phone line smoke why don't they come in for them it might come up on them from one to november unless i'm going to get out. there just as. she was even. more so than just. general marks from the sun on my last book you go to the british course they're going up i've been roughed up. i mean the gun.

debate. i think i mean now he wants to go i'm going to debate step and yes on one thing. now he wants to be to be mean long gone for the b.b.c. more i kept the only one. because you know first i thought equally he's pretty good . we made a pretty fair use deal i set my conditions it's not even a debate. then he's a neutral moderate that we both clicked the piece. and. the mud that i introduced as shots then each of us speaks for half an hour whatever.
