russia's envoy to the un accuses the global chemical weapons watchdog of becoming highly politicized after leaked document appears to contradict the o.p.c. probe into a chemical attack in syria. away from the us after the state of alabama has adopted the most restrictive abortion laws in the country. you need to make a choice you protect the bill you make a choice if you don't believe it's going to work so i don't like some of the comments. but i also have respect for life. and region of controversy after vying to introduce a set of rules the 10 commandments of immigration targeting asylum seekers coming up we discuss the implications of that move them without. talking specifics the

community and i think a great sense of stigmatisation and. criminalize. this said it's stigmatizing long way. to international the weekend money was kevin and we just turned midday here in moscow and thanks for being with us them for this half hour world news roundup starting with this story a leaked document has cast doubt on the global chemical weapons watchdog report on a deadly incident in syria last year it contradicts the o.p.c. w.'s official conclusion issued more than 2 months ago the report claims that cylinders probably containing chlorine were dropped from the air on the city of doom and western governments use those findings to blame the syrian government for

the attack direct. however it was now a newly leaked o.p.c. w. report reportedly written by one of its experts says it's unlikely that the 2 cylinders were dropped from an aircraft it maintains they were placed manually with moralist today our senior correspondent. this was a comprehensive study and you were you look at it iis engineers experts accounted for almost everything apparently visited the locations saw all the images the videos simulated the physical properties of the canisters concrete steel supports rebars everything they could account for they did it seems is what they found one location in the creator and the chemical canister simply put didn't match instead the crater appears the being caused by an explosive shell before or after and the canister in the impact crater just don't match when

a metal cannon falls through a concrete roof and steel supports you'd expect it to leave marks in dents but no consistent marks were found another location canisters say the authors simply couldn't have fit through the impact crater with the valve still intact the only explain nation for all of this the experts state is that they were placed there. observations of the scene of the 2 locations together with subsequent analysis suggest that there is a high probability that both cylinders will money placed if there is $2.00 locations rather than being delivered from aircraft now one would think their findings are incredibly important that they would change the entire narrative findings completely contradict what was later put in the official o.p.c. w. report on the chemical incident and duma narrative the acid's helicopters drop to

these canisters that was established hours after the incident with no investigation or questions a narrative that enabled the narmada of cruise missiles to be launched at syria. u.b.c. w. has admitted that the documents had been leaks and say they're investigating how it happened which into the veracity of these documents they didn't deny their legitimacy worryingly u.p.c. w. has issued no comment on what the specific report found there were many other

reports which the u.p.c. w. compiled for their final version on how these leaked findings fly in the face of the u.p.c. w.'s official report the documents turn the entire story side out and bear in mind these aren't just random nobodies we don't know whether this team was part of the u.p.c. w staff members or outside consultants experts and the u.p.c. double. who is saying nothing other than it looked at all versions and sub investigations and compiled 7 them asked for comment a week ago with a list of questions and there's been no response why did they meet this report why did they go for one version of events and not the other why are they taking so long to comment on this so far silence but with the story gaining traction so for answers sooner or later. professor piers robinson who accessed the report says the

o.p.c. w. has to address whether or not there's a cover up going on over the dem report. what kind of political pressure might have been brought to bear on your p.c. w to lead didn't to what would appear to be the case to to suppress will not use a report which one of the best started as you've been involved in producing and to rely on engineering reports from some unspecified external companies those are kind of question 3 really need to be asking and really you know p c w has to address this i think more broadly than that there needs to a proper investigation into the o.p.c. w. and how it has been operating because if it is the case that it's organization has been subjected to political pressure and that has led to a distortion there investigations then that is an incredibly serious matter for whole number of reasons quite aside from the fact that we did what happened in duma

civilians were killed and we need to get to the bottom of who killed them ok this is a war crime has occurred and it is in any way some kind of coverup going on and that's a very very serious matter and it's something which should be the people should be pushing for a proper investigation an international inquiry into what has been going on how do you easy w.b. not creating uncritically an investigation to try to understand what has been happening in syria in relation to all of these events need allegations regarding chemical weapons attacks. meanwhile the u.n. security council's met on the situation in the middle east and touched on the syrian conflict this code council focused on air strikes in syria earlier this month according to western countries that were carried out by syrian government forces they cause civilian casualties and destroyed hospitals in a pharmacy russia the u.k. and the u.s. have all had a great deal to say on the assault. of the syrian army nor the russian forces have

been waging military operations against civilians or civilian infrastructure russia and the regime's decision to launch air strikes sends a terrible signal of disregard toward the u.n. political process where we refuse to consider terrorists as an untouchable and will continue to fight them despite the objections of some of our partners russia has claimed that its so-called return it she strikes surgical i quote surgical in their precision i hope they do not need medical treatment in moscow if surgical accuracy means what we've seen usually i hope you never need a hospital but there are good medical facilities in russia if you have a new that lets us know united states reiterate that any escalation in violence in northwest syria would destabilize the region. we have our own view on who's destabilizing the region. the united states has been odd since the state of

alabama approved a new abortion law which is currently the most restrictive in the country it criminalizes the procedure even in cases of rape or incest and punishes doctors of the 99 years in prison a similar heartbeat bill was signed in neighboring georgia early this month is kind of maupin's got the latest. alabama and georgia have passed their widely decried heartbeat bill these laws ban the determination of a pregnancy after 6 weeks even if the woman has been raped even if the fetus is not viable they make no exception and not surprisingly these bills have been rather controversial this is the most extreme abortion ban. that's ever been cast so there's a higher penalty for doctors who perform these operations then for most rapists this is a travesty and i pray for all these women and young girls who will suffer at the hands of the system take these are the eat it's making decisions for women in america governor i.v.

shame on you celebrities are now speaking out actress alyssa morano is pulling a page from the old greek comedy list the strada and calling on women not to have sex with men until the laws are overturned and certain voices are calling on big corporations like amazon delta airlines and coca-cola to boycott anti abortion states i think that if a woman doesn't want to have and i think that should have the option to be decided as a mayor here in the seventy's to pass through versus wade because women were still going to force you just and say but it's not just the pro-choice side that is getting fired up anti-abortion activists are furious about new was in new york and virginia now these bills allow for a doctor to take into account physical emotional and even a woman's age when making the decision to terminate a pregnancy at any point and needless to say conservatives have gotten fired up by the implications of these laws i'm asking you is why is it that a bill banning abortions after a woman has been pregnant for 6 weeks is not

a return to the dark ages what's your answer my answer is something called science human life exists at conception it ought to be protected abortion has never been popular in the state of alabama it applies only in a state where a strong majority agrees with it were reflects that communities values well i was rigid so i think anyone who cares about the unborn would have been it is inhumane it is immoral in my opinion and this is what i'm fighting against the anti-abortion side is now calling for drastic action it's time the millions of commonsense pro-life americans cannot be clean. new york virginia new mexico rhode island and all the other insane states that will not protect the turn babies native new york pro lifers gather outside life in new stations with bright life signs show the world your numbers boycott new york boycott new york seriously don't go there if everyone who is pro-life refuses to visit there we could cripple their tourism

industry decided to find out how new yorkers feel about these new laws there are full they are terrible for people men and women you need to make a choice should be at the ability to make a choice if you don't have that ability it's not going to work i have mixed feelings i could see both sides i don't like some of the comments that were made about women and rape but i also have respect for life and do you think there is a point where we need to be more mindful of when we're doing certain things this is an old fight in american politics between 2 groups that just won't see eye to eye and it seems that the powers that be have picked this longstanding divide among the american people and said ready set fight it could go all the way up to the supreme court again caleb up and r.t. new york is like the topic of the next the hugely popular t.v. show game of thrones may have serious consequences for productivity this coming monday because all round the globe fans are glued to the seats of the final episode

right before the working week begins the think of the show is also the subject of many news articles of course i'm trying to draw parallels between the plot of the real political situation just maybe in the world especially tensions between iran and the u.s. and it's something that the in case you missed it picked up own too. in case you missed it u.s. forces are on the move when terror could be coming for iran hold on a 2nd is this a game of thrones episode. is just that this stuff in the middle east is really important. but honestly who would be stupid enough to compare something as serious as this to a t.v. show about boobies. is that real. imagine if the latest us iran showdown was actually a game of thrones i'm not wearing the.

golden head donald trump variant is the only thousands of both dragons dragons are a metaphor for nuclear weapons try and stay with me here ok ito isn't one round this is to have ending just a few of the great houses are allowed the ability to tell an entire city's into smoldering ashes but only one species dead now trump guerin's force is all gathering outside the iran this stronghold he sent in his eye in fleet i'm probably one of those peace loving at a craft carrier is just off the coast he's even threatened to send 120000 sunday troops there as well but he doesn't want you may be confused by that part of the whole list stuff here tonight john bolton says you've seen intelligence indicating that the iran distance is all planning attacks against trump garrion forces there is your poll it's coming from the little the virus netanyahu the middle east mosque

of wispa is all of this makes the iran a star is in for a dragon of their road more than ever and they're threatening to try and breed one again soon because the trunk guerin's pulled out of an ancient pact which stopped them during that the stocks of europe a warning that a conflict could stop accidentally but when it comes to the club which they're likely to scatter in different directions when the fighting begins and at least one will probably use. the problem for the iran desk as it is that they have no idea if they're dealing with the seasons $1.00 to $7.00 trump area or the season 8 version . i haven't heard. no you have a model of a correspondent walk in to talk to one of the big stars of the big show game of thrones now defines israel as he bowled and he was on a big adventure of his own coming here to russia for his 1st visit if you watch the full thing it's on our website and our you tube channel give

a wonder what would have happened ramsay if you had the sort of grisly end in season 6 yeah i don't know. i don't know how we would have felt but a near is something you probably would have been to be on your side in a stupid she's got a dragon but i don't think the way the narrative of the show is played out that it would have been as good with ramsey they i think. i think he needs to sort of be gotten rid of in order to install the stocks back to create that drama and the and the intrigue between the nearest and. and john snow obviously because what else are you going to do he just is in so many awful things that he just you know who'd just been a you know was going to do now as you've described as well sort of nothing's black and white there's no villains you know it's interesting playing those sorts of roles i've never been romeo as you know i mean in. so i guess i'm. something else.

i really enjoy playing the more complex roles because there's just more to it. and it's often yes more interesting i think i don't know what that says about me as a person. or maybe you know i think you need a specific kind of actor to play those roles and in order to make them not be sort of just face value and have depth and to be 3 dimensional and maybe you need a specific kind of actor we had person obviously getting away from a game of thrones is that is the big thing right now that the hype surrounding that i always say i haven't seen much could ask is that what's that this is a let me follow you yeah absolutely yeah what's your thoughts of somalia i think one of the great things about it is he just doesn't matter what people could sit around and discuss in and have all these ideas and they just no matter what you think they always seem to find a way to twist i thought coming into the series there was no way around it being the nearest but now i was thinking in june last and so i don't know if she's but i

kind of saw the upcoming i'm very interested to see the scene between. little of it goes away something as epic as that which is you know really. defined you at least in the last couple of years as a as a as an actor yeah of course i miss it but it's also it's everything's got to come to a close and i think it's quite exciting that it sort of finishes as you know has just fizzled out going out with the buying and. yen and then on to the next thing and. go to sort of the world do so well now how do you see this is going priestly pessimistic about the block future just ahead of those big year elections coming up from the 23rd will tell you more about that and the rest of the headlines after the break. join me every 1st week on the alex salmond short and i'll be speaking to guests of

the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you there. so we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic development the only. exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. most people matters public pension funds don't know anything about that they're just clerks that they just signed to this job they give them a bunch of money in wall street guys come around and they take them out to lunch that thomas marty is in and they sell me a bag of worms and some a lot of garbage most toxic risk on wall street is sold into these public pension funds where it goes to die that's why the returns are so.

exactly 20 minutes past me. with us today next a province in northern australia is set to issue some rules of conduct for refugees with the title 10 commandments of living in austria well this list among other things requires migrants to learn german and to respect austrian values it was drawn up by the right wing freedom party supposedly with the aim of helping people to integrate instantly doesn't include penalties for noncompliance the money's being branded a publicity stunt by critics they say asylum seekers in austria already have to sign a declaration which covers stuff like integration language and values now at the height of the european refugee crisis let's one but 2015 almost 90000 people applied for asylum in. austria that's equivalent to about one percent of the

country's population the influx of widespread public opposition and then fast forward 2018 the government pulled out of the un global migration pact we had some opposing views than on the way austria is dealing with refugees on one side media commentator on the other political analysts catherine check them. if you ask the people in austria people saw in france belgium spain or anywhere they don't want. they don't want this of course they can practice their religion in the private sphere no problem but i don't want our society to get in the name of multiculturalism. community developing which is anti west inductors the problem i think the issue here is that it's targeting specifically the muslim community and i think there is a great sounds of stigmatisation incrimination of of islam all together in austria i'm not sure that those 10 commandments would actually address anything other than further as you need

a community that is actually trying to integrate the best it can and i think that it's leading the debate you know elsewhere this law is not stigmatizing resorting to the silly it's stigmatizing one way of considering islam we have an issue with radicalism but again we now addressing the issue by trying to criminalize the entirety of the muslim community and i think that's a problem because we're talking religious freedoms and that's an issue that you know i think worries me greatly because by if we're doing in one community is rightly overeating all of our rights and i think that in which we need to wake up to this reality there is no criminalize ation as the lady just said about these 10 commandments they simply want the people to realise that they are welcome in a country that would put their social welfare to the disposal of these markets that we would welcome them so they should show gratitude it should be ingrained in them that they should understand that and i will say that i personally feel that yes

when it comes to kindergarten and primary school i don't think that anyone can make the religious argument that children little girls should wear a headscarf because it's neither here nor there when it comes to the religious argument because it's not mandatory and that the tool people do. not civilization not society not communities only if we believe in hatred and fear yes we will clash if we do believe in compassion and humanity and democracy it will. seems the collapse of the e.u. is a realistic possibility in the coming decades apolo ahead of those big european elections suggest that is the view of many people in the bloc it also comes with statistics to showing that 3 in 10 voters believe indeed there could even be a war between e.u. countries shala do burns has got the story today. with less than a week to go before the e.u. heads to the polls it seems that you are files have found something new to panic about and i'm not talking about an upsurge in support for you or skeptic parties

according to one thing tank this is the european council on foreign relations there are just 7 days to save the union now that may sound drastic but when you look at the results of a survey that they've just released beginning to understand why the e.u. has been described as the world's best known peace project but it seems a surprisingly large number of coaches across the blow off fearful war may break out between member states here in france that was the greatest pessimism with 34 percent saying that it was a realistic prospect so we've been putting this to people here in paris to find out if this scares the bejesus out of them i have to say that we are scared but i hope that this will not like to have more consequences like wrecks either so i think you're dreaming. is like oh nightmare they will never happen it is something the

suppose in the future to think you wouldn't think so we have for the 1st thing. in the truce always we we need to always try to move move on we're not really afraid of. economy very open economy. we're dependent on foreign investment. in 20 years lots of things could happen and there could be a war we could see a repeat of the 1st of the 2nd world war i'm not actually worried about that but we never i would think all of that's happened over the course of history but europe would not want to do that again because i think it's a problem for the future and that's why it's important to though to elections perhaps just as worrying is that something. 58 percent of respondents here in france thought that the e.u. was likely to fall apart in the next 10 to 20 years reflecting a general trend in other member states including germany italy and poland it may be

a bit late in the day but the think tank the e.c.f. aa is now looking for inspiration as how it can encourage more true e.u. voters to cast their ballots next week to safeguard the future suggest taking a leaf out of the book of protest movements like the yellow back grants or even extinction rebellion basically the penny has finally dropped to many voters it turned off by traditional politicians and there is huge apathy towards the e.u. parliament and its institutions so is it too late to save you up or to save it from itself. ot see paris so big vote then as the terms of the big news stories you can guarantee will be across the giving of the russian point of view here from moscow and elsewhere around the world for now though coming up 27 minutes past the day moscow time that's it for me copenhagen for now check it out for the latest from is 247 as well with a great weekend. what

is it call and decline is magic in the new type of digital currency the centralized digital scarcity chancellor i'm bringing a 2nd for bankers call the genesis blog for reason because being a civil disobedience a source of optimism because i can control my own financial destiny it's just a new way of coming to consensus is a game changer in the human history this is columbus discovering a new world this paradigm shifting technology that transforms economics and finance into hardly the apollo 11 landing on to the max. stacey. in 2040 you know bloody revolution to correct the demonstrations going from being

relatively peaceful political protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it still or here i mean you are liz put me in the. school in the middle of the ukrainian president recalls the events of 2014. those who took part in this state over $5000000000.00 to assist ukraine in these an article that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. those who they are supporting cuffed and they have they don't care about the emir they don't care about the stability of libya the only thing the cure is about their own agendas and so we might be bugged here for a long time it can be really a civil war that continues for for a long time. max

kaiser this is the kaiser report no a lot of people are confused by so many people like klein but look at a story today coming out of wall street from morgan stanley they got really great and they mispriced the initial public offering or i.p.o. to grab a lot of money but then the stock start of the fall and usually there is a reserve bank like morgan stanley has called the green shoot to help them manage the initial public offering as the price goes up and down but the price was crashing so morgan stanley decided to instantaneously on the spot start counterfeiting shares out of nowhere they call it naked short selling but they just started to counterfeit shares in the hope that they could buy those counterfeit shares at a cheaper price and book a profit per massive accounting fraud. morgan stanley are so charming is it any

wonder everyone hates you and thereby going to get out of your matrix of fraud accounting malfeasance and criminal behavior stacey yes that's an article on 0 had this really fascinating to what he they were actually reporting from c m b c what they were talking about this naked short in order to cover their losses but this also fits with this headline just out on market watch there is a truth decay they call it in american journalism study says the media has become more biased over the last 30 years in fact and this is a rand corporation study and what they did is they studied hours and hours and hours of news footage over the past 2030 years and what they found was that indeed it has become more subjective and of motional and they mention in fact that our research provides quantitative evidence for what we all can see in the media land.
