as head of the hawks i meant his position of the president's team next kind of open this morning looks at how america's reportedly abandon its professed commitments to peace. it's a familiar pattern u.s. presidents getting elected on an antiwar platform i just don't think it's the role of the united states to walk into a country say we do it this way so should you we've lost thousands of american lives spent nearly a trillion dollars alienated allies neglected emerging threats all in the cause of fighting a war for well over five years in a country that had absolutely nothing to do with the nine eleven attacks i will never send our finest into battle unless necessary and i mean absolutely necessary and will only do so if we have a plan for victory with a capital v.

they criticize the wars of those who came before them and they win votes for doing it. the clinton gore administration has failed to instill trust in congress and the american people when it comes to our military and deployment of troops overseas governor bush views it as a legislative overreach on powers of the presidency so what's missing in our debate about iraq this war distracts us from every threat that we face and so many opportunities we could seize. this war diminishes our security our standing in the world our military our economy and the resources that we need to confront the challenges of the twenty first century was against the war in iraq because i said it's going to totally destabilize the middle east but once they get elected they can't help but start new ones barack obama turned george w. bush's two wars into eight and trump has kept those wars ticking along while threatening new ones in new regions of the world as of course the united states in

a limited military action in libya in support of an international effort to protect libyan civilians i have decided that the united states should take military action against syrian regime targets we have troops over the world this place is a very very far away venezuela is not very far away and the people are suffering and dying we have many options for of it as well as including a possible military option if necessary sending lethal weapons to ukraine escalating threats against iran and venezuela trump was elected sounding like a dove but he's governing like a hawk he dropped the mother of all bombs on afghanistan and sent cruise missiles to syria but it's a long tradition in one nine hundred sixty four lyndon johnson ran for president on a platform of not escalating the vietnam war and after he won guess what he did in one nine hundred sixteen woodrow wilson's campaign slogan for reelection was actually he kept us out of war and after he won the vote he got us into

a new one presidents tend to win on antiwar platforms because americans don't like war however once they're in the oval office they just can't resist the temptation so next time you hear a candidate promising peace look at a map and ask where next often times the blame game is that not enough was done again it depended upon who is in power obama came in austin it's a blue and. or the scientist bush for the actions in iraq because it was then later revealed that the intelligence did not exist or bomber was less in to regime change trump in venezuela i haven't heard any plan on not only how to conduct there but where they're going to do want to see achieve power if the achieve power in the near future i do not see a change in this pattern it would have been nice to see the yet united states since one thousand nine hundred ninety has really developed

a pattern for military action. london's fame such a gallery is taken the decision to cover up to provoke could have pieces of art after they listed one response from muslim visitors titled rainbow elicited one response from muslim visitors titled rainbow seeds a controversial exhibition was created by a contemporary london based artist works that proved controversial feature of the islamic declaration of faith the charter juxtaposed with images of nude women in the u.s. flag over the gallery in the artist have defended the decision to cover up the paintings instead of removing them. it seemed a respectful solution that enables a debate about freedom of expression versus the perceived right not to be offended the gallery also recognizes the sincerity of the complaints made against this works and supported the artist decision to cover them until the end of the exhibition. political commentator andrew walker and muslim rights campaign a summer but went head to head at r.t. u.k.

over those clashing over the implications of the case. or i think this has been blown out of proportion a bit i mean the most charitable interpretation i can get is. the gallery made bit of a blunder they weren't looking to kind of one ton and in sort of end and in on some people live ten of the girl and gallery complained and they came to some kind of compromise what we know about this situation bluntly is that they're not putting covering these things up because they're worried about offending people freedom of speech they're concerned that you are just as likely to be killed for infringing islamic blasphemy laws in britain as you are in saudi arabia and i think that is frankly shameful we should have a right to freedom of speech in this country we should have a right to freedom of expression in this country and this is at the tackle but you know i mean that's part of the problem using the language invercargill of blasphemy in a very distinctly and consensually european notion of christian europe in motion it brings to the minds of simple people the ok this is this is talking about what we

know the maybe brutal history of kind of europe under the church and so on and so it proves that if you wish to insult one more of the religion that they said they claim the right to stop you but it's always lowest level to not as a few words you don't mean think for work if you think that if you think about it if what we are going to do with life is pundits or the person who is most easily offended then actually we're never going to get anywhere at all i think that it's dangerous to go back to if you go to your local coffee shop and you're offended by this and where you think something's wrong that they're doing you have the right to say you know that's wrong we should live in a world like that we should crack down hard on that if you're offended i don't care you know precisely doing what you're complaining they're doing you're saying we should crack count down x. was not this is they are going to go are going to take a holiday please let some of this a group of peoples. we think you should take this down another group of people said no you shouldn't take it down they came to some what they believe is the calling of

compromise you may disagree but the fact of the matter is if you believe these people have human status you don't have to believe that ok i don't agree with you with your condemnation but you have the right to say. that only those ads if you don't like that picture you can enjoy it not going to the gallery what they've actually said is we don't like this picture there for you can't look at it either now mind you are you know what i mean or by you to type that way by the way this isn't a compromise oh we don't like the picture therefore nobody can see it is not a compromise a compromise as i don't like the picture i'm not going to go and see it myself i just look at it as the customers are saying we paid to come to this or we think you should do this if you disagree you can make your case as well but the the gallery had to make a grown up decision a cover story about. here russia marked the seventy fourth anniversary of nazi

germany's surrender on thursday and the end of the war in the eastern front it was a huge day again a secular kid so all the commemorations. it's very difficult to describe the atmosphere here it's it's charged electric is intense but yet there's so much excitement up excitement just released during the parade itself. you hold. your run of the beer for sure rio are. you here now or do you see where you can see the school saying the gloves suited me and that

the. poor through moon. stood out in the media should name is if you said he is serving as you know doing. nothing unites this country more then the immortal rajam it marge every time i see this i just don't understand when the flow of the crowd is going to stop it's endless it always it can never stop surprising you those who say that this victory parade is just saber rattling displays of affection much intimidation they need to be here and come have a look at this crowd of people is just absolutely endless names just in comparable to anything one has ever seen is the biggest to my knowledge remember it's events in russia in the world nothing quite like it all does so all.

morsel recapped coma site still the. israel's treatment of its arab population a small i would talk about that on the rest the news that when we come back. 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 raid in truth to stand out of the news business is just the right questions and demand the right

answer. question. it's a church or economy there's two children for the world that exist in america so if i go into a big bank that bank of america citi bank was fargo bank and i say i want to borrow hundred thousand dollars and i want you to charter a zero percent interest rate on that and then i want to posit that hundred thousand dollars that your back and i want you to pay me five percent and i want to therefore collect all that they. get a tax free ok can i do that now but it back to do that.

authorities in a food in northern edge rather apparently making good on a promise to quote preserve the city's character in a highly controversial step the decided to ban arabs from visiting the local park artie's fall asleep has got more on the story. this is the northern israeli town of afula home to around fifty thousand people most of whom are jewish the town and particularly this park women used recently because of if it's by citizens to maintain what they call the character of the place and the way to do this according to the town's mayor is to shut out so-called minority members that say arab citizens off nearby villages that's just a euphemism for keeping arabs out and. the book is a police open enjoyment if it's not the police only for jews it is for everyone not only for residents of. an increase in discrimination they do not directly say that is against arabs but not

a lot of arabs leave enough and who feel like it is forbidden for us to. disagree they say that people who don't live in the town should not be allowed into the park the official word from the municipality is that. we must safeguard for it insists that the closure of the park to nonresidents has nothing to do with jews and arabs but rather it's a way of exposing the town's residents to a host of activities that they can participate in when they do the right people all the jews come here when arabs come here they just cause problems. belongs to the city and it's just in the interest of their residents to look after its place people from the outside don't have that interest but i'm not a visit in town i'm here this matter will now forward into the lap of the interior ministry to decide later this month. r t a fuller northern israel. big program coming out following a spectacular week for english football we've got some special really special to

recent report from the u.k.'s foreign office highlights in detail the persecution of christians around the world in the middle east the cradle appreciated the christian species think should why is it being politically incorrect in the west foundational religion. football the. people. nothing. much else for much of france to be upset with me finals are not to play finals are to when i was a ball boy that's the only thing that suits my reputation.

what a week liverpool will play tottenham in the champions league final but only after both sides somehow came back to the stand to beat barcelona and i.x. respectively and at the end winning manages floods of taste and wait what did you make of that and the sheer emotion. and we also saw the losing ones and our hearts was for them to face the press after but i think you're right let's focus on. on the better side of of the game which is the winning the winning side. different personalities. people react in different ways. even different moments of your career probably also react in a different way but inside. we are all the same in

spite of the different personalities and the. champions league final. when the champions league but. this step of being in the final is something that in your career doesn't happen many many times for example in my champions league finals i heard that early victory. board or three neal with. interest to neil so before the end of the game you have time to process everything you have time to sync how you get. your dreams keep as a young coach you have time to put everything into perspective in other cases in other cases it's just. that second just that blessed minute just waiting for the referee to to to do the whistle for the for the last time and

. in this first case is even the last second the last shot so everything crossed their minds and they they probably remember the people that they love the people the love them the people that doesn't love them the difficult moments of their career the good everything cross your mind in a few seconds then after that is just your personality and the way you react if it is a semifinal of me one of your. and shylock the as the done. ok the desire to win is the same the service to lose is the same nothing change but we won it we did it for this for is it is incredible feeling for them so all of these emotions for me our vision of you i think is

a good way for people to understand what it means for the mothers means more than the us more than anybody else more than the players more than the phones more than the all those more than everybody else is our live and we depend on on success and we depend on. on victories and one of them will get that the go be good to be hears and we will have you in these hands and i have already said sinking that one of them is going to lose it is brutal isn't it and that's why everybody loves football but let's just look then at how they got so close how they've got so close and start with that game in amsterdam because at half time spurs were losing three nil on aggregate they looked at him buried and then in the second half everything changed what was the catalyst you were in there i was in this chair a few weeks ago and we were speaking about you vent as.

i don't. remember career that i told you to who must give what they don't want you must take the game to the direction they don't want they don't like. and is difficult for them to cope we did. at tottenham they did it in the second of long ball tour and you're into flicking holding with this chest waiting for support the less the ball is long ball you're in the second ball assists look at goal of everything was these acts wants to press high they cannot press because the ball is not there i was watching a game with. john barnes and we were having a laugh because i was saying that. i had accent and says sokol after the game they need a neck massage. because they didn't touch the ball in the second half and they were

just looking at the wall but the ball was going from all the violence duncan. got into and then the lucas all the ones are all in the second ball are you excluding cope in the second game where everything is decided when the manager tells you ok let's go against our principles let's go against our philosophy but this is the way we have to hurt them we have forty five minutes to do it or not to do it in the first leg you still have the second leg you still are waiting for a song to be back the one you will result is not. a very bad resolves you know one you give even if you lose a home the game is open so i think in the second leg there were objectively objectively focus on on that and what surprised me because i always say that the very good quality of a team is to note the syncs that we are not very good that is as important as you

know where you are good that i am surprised. that. they did nothing. to try to cope with something that is really really difficult they let the game go and go and go always with the same profile of the game so of course you can say football the screwup thieves. i know that can be but one thing is when you prolapse we. trying not to collapse and the kept playing the same way ok zero in the post. is course that goal game over we can go to all these details but by the point of view. tottenham forgot their basic philosophy and they went with the strategy to try to make the miracle happen and from minute one until minute ninety five they

play only with their philosophy and in football it's not possible for me to quit cold or the start of the second half changed things but i almost felt you could see i.x. we're in trouble after his first goal i mean you could see that something was happening in the gang they. had big chances the vertonghen eating the post the low cross the blood in the mists one metre from the goal every time. taught them was going long x. was dropping but of course it was in minute ninety five but could be in minute eighty five and now you wouldn't be speaking of of such a big drama but i x i want to give them one more time in huge credit for the football they play for the the quality the broad for the

motion is because teams play the way they play. that so many kids are attracted by by the.
