moscow time here. watching out international and the weekly a roundup of the top stories of the last 7 days for the united states is warning that airliners flying over the persian gulf could be misidentified and targeted amid a spike in tension between the u.s. and iran washington's allies of also joined this latest front against iran to saudi arabia's foreign minister says his country stands for peace but will respond firmly and decisively if necessary the u.s. stance has been clear for quite some time. threaten their neighbors or spread instability or terror everywhere we go in the middle east it's a rare and or ran around major destabilizing in influence in the middle east spread death destruction and chaos the leaders of iran are record here's world's largest finance here of international terrorism behind every problem is array and we've

been trying to do is to get iran to be him like a normal nation. one of the fist is opponents of the iranian regime is the u.s. national security adviser john bolton who fights he so keen on his job it seems of the golding to interview back in 2010 he said he'd lie in the name of national security kind of mopin looks at his track record. john bolton has a very important job keeping americans safe after all that is the job of the national security adviser and it's very important for americans to trust someone in that position john bolton wasn't always the national security adviser here's something he said before he got the job if i had to say something i knew was false to protect american national security i would do it so considering that john bolton has a pretty important position in terms of influencing the president on international matters you think it might be a concern if he says things consistently that turn out to be false we decided to ask new yorkers. iran continues to seek nuclear weapons and intimidate peaceful
5:03 am
people is that true not. true i guess that's false. so the one year period that we've talked about from the point where north korea makes to strategic decision to denuclearize is something that north and south koreans have already agreed to is that true or false false this sounds like something that's not true doesn't seem. right. i'm not running around the world looking for ways to create hostilities well it's just the other quotes pretty much speak for themselves that john bolton doesn't seem to have a golden record however that doesn't seem to put him in any danger of losing his job at least for now. you would lie in order to preserve the truth if i had to say something i knew was false to protect american national security i would do it. is the point man thank you very little.
5:04 am
jackal to carry this effort to for it and to topple the elected government of iran from a political perspective we have to see this is a reflection of the system itself the united states they want the oil in iran and whenever a bully wants to take something out of your position then the alleged provocations to justify the violence that they are getting ready to put. it seems that some have been destroyed ready briefed to everyone growing iranian threat although not apparently the us senate which looks like it's being kept in the dark over the plans. i would urge the state department to come down here and explain to us what's going on. for a long and to demand answers by this administration about are wrong about its
5:05 am
policy we need to understand what we're doing the hearings that are done in secret do not for inform the american people of what's going on i demand to know why we have deployed. the american military assets we do not need another iraq weapons of mass destruction involving the tender box of the middle east is no place to operate on impulse or whim. that the appearance this administration has created by lacking a clearly articulated strategy for the american people to know and it's that mr president this behavior is not acceptable while the tensions between the u.s. and iran escalate some of the media seem to believe washington's big forced into. syria and venezuela as examples military on this told us there's no real evidence
5:06 am
that iran does pose a threat. this is not complete surprise probably the real threat on the ground is no different to what it was a year ago or 2 years ago but the levels of escalation politically have been going up every week since the last year they're trying to link various activities of iran undoubtedly iran is operating in the region at a heightened level but if you look at what happened in saudi arabia and the ships in the persian gulf the americans are trying to connect the dots and find a smoking gun which can say and iran responsible for all these but there is nothing official and that's why the british side have said this and all of the germans have pulled out their trainers and the americans are pulling some of their stuff out there is nothing concrete that say iran is moving to words and action which would lead to war and the round was part of a broader discussion to between the top diplomats of russia and the u.s. that took place in the wake of the russian resort of sochi the torch to describe both ministers as frank and productive both sides said they were ready to move
5:07 am
relations for their also admitted to they don't see eye to eye on a number of crucial global issues when or not meeting our senior correspondent who are here. they've managed to talk about all their differences and they've managed to see say to each other we disagree on this this is how we see it we disagree on this this is how we see it and booth have said that well that's good but we can talk 1st topic of course begs well up on venezuela we have disagreed with my russian colleagues to support the venezuelan people as they return democracy to their country the united states and more than 50 other nations agree that the time has come for nicolas maduro to go he's brought nothing but misery to the venezuelan people. and we hope that the russians will support. former dural and the markets are still in use them on democracy can't be imposed by force the threats coming both from u.s.
5:08 am
officials and the opposition leader 1.0 was always reminding us of the possibility of. the tree interventions have nothing to do with democracy. what both countries seem to agree on is that it's venezuelans that should decide what happens to their country also on iran much the same situation although not as radically opposed russia saying that it believes the iranian nuclear deal of 2015 is the best option going forward it's a system a platform a framework that's already established that will guarantee to the international community that iran isn't pursuing nuclear weapons the united states agreeing to disagree with most new mother we have many disagreements on are wrong now what are you but the fact that we've started talking on this issue gives us hope that we will be able to achieve agreements if both sides show willingness to do damage and mr i made clear that the united states will continue to apply pressure to the
5:09 am
regime in tehran until its leadership is prepared to return to the ranks of responsible nations that do not threaten their neighbors or spread instability or terror nevertheless both sides have said that you know they will continue to work together on coming up with some sort of solution along with the other signatories of the iran nuclear deal the north korean front for one that both sides have made progress that real progress has been made on making sure that the north korean the korean peninsula is denuclearized also as you heard about meddling a good government busy the russians saying that we both want to buy what they said was a very long time not for years that they still haven't been shown any proof of what it is that russia has done there's been nothing in writing nothing concrete that the americans have given russians and said this is what you did and said that. there will be no conversation serious conversation is grownups and until that
5:10 am
happens might bump a 0. on the other hand saying that the united states is willing to improve relations with russia that the orders come from donald trump perhaps the more radical factions those that have trumpeted about collusion and meddling perhaps they'll be marginalized and sidelight sidelined so relations can finally improve. 5 major tech giants of committed to combative violent content online after world leaders urged them to do so at a summit in paris on wednesday and that meeting was convened in response to the terror attack in christchurch new zealand which was live streamed and then widely shared over facebook terrorism and violent extremism are complex societal problems that required all of society response for our part the commitments we are making today will further strengthen the partnership the government society and the technology industry must have to address this threat it included google or microsoft and they've signed up to anyone who shares of violent or extremist
5:11 am
content they've also pledged to follow up on material flagged as terrorist more promptly while new rules for live streams will be implemented in new zealand meantime 10 people charged for sharing the video of the cross church massacre to remind you back in march a gunman killed 51 in 2 mosques there the video was uploaded some one and a half 1000000 times on facebook in the 24 hours that followed the live stream where we discuss 2 should shoulder responsibility for removing bad content should it be the platform should have been the uses we talked about that with privacy activist bill mew media analyst lionel and rights attorney jennifer breeden. you have an army not just with facebook but with twitter there's an army of contractors employees and other people who are there to immediately get it off right away as has been stated this happens with people that espouse certain political opinions and other ideologies and so now we're talking about you know we're talking about
5:12 am
getting off far more egregious things monitoring or moderating in real time what these videos are and what the content is funding some research to try and improve their ability to detect this in real time with sort of automated means which is absolutely necessary given the volume of content but the technology simply isn't up to it yet the idea of somebody actually showing in broadcasting real time the slaughter of human beings i make it even simpler what if this was an actual real time live stream of child pornography nobody would be even debating this i would say you've got to fix this technology and now this is nothing to do with freedom of expression nothing to do with the dissemination of ideas in no way does it violate and by the way very quickly safe book has the most incredible celerity what it comes to shutting down and immediately knocking somebody off who are spouses a poll a little opinion just by merely supporting somebody you need to recognize the fact
5:13 am
that a 1000000 copies were taken down effectively and we need to actually take a hats off to facebook the fact that it did take down so many different copy there would have been any number of different videos being all being shot civil taney asli and i see dealing with all those in real time would be almost impossible but those were the perpetrators do you publish them is that report told do you allow that what about people who are filming atrocities in my i am more there doing genuine reports do you allow that if it appears to be atrocious attacks and therefore we actually have to be slightly more realistic than saying the technology could do it come on get you move get. there are a formal complicated challenges they have i do believe and i know that they have this technology not only do they have that they have hundreds upon thousands of employees of contractors of people whose jobs it is to sit there and to see what's coming up and the moment something that is violent that is agree just that is horrific the horrific thing about this is that we are now given social media giants
5:14 am
like facebook and twitter a very very severe amount of power that was supposed to only be a spouse of the us government federal government and state governments under the 1st amendment and now it's as if social media giants and platforms like facebook or twitter have taken over the you know what you guys have your 1st amendment governments you can't do anything we're the ones who dictate your speech now that's dangerous and that's something that needs to be consistently watched i don't want to hear anybody tell me that the technology's not there or there's no way to monitor this because let me tell you something if this war is something that was contrary to the zuckerberg world view it would be awful for anybody even thought it so they're dragging their feet it's nonsense and they know exactly what has to be done and they're simply not doing it so it's made the 50 most go tom thanks for watching this sunday were you too did run the world weekends going ok if you could stay too because there's plenty more to come including various stories russian
5:15 am
games design live for you singing a decade in jail accused of smuggling fights to get money to go bug story the relations between canada and the philippines literally trashed. join me every 1st week on the alex simon short and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. i am reluctant to give credit to the president trying for just about anything but by action in a way when he said at the beginning of his presidency that he'd be open to work to a one state or a 2 state solution whatever these rising balloting is going to agree on i think that was actually a smart thing to say given the legacy of american force and support for israel the
5:16 am
expansion essentially over the decades given the kind of political culture and political system that israel has developed there really isn't a way to negotiate something between palestinians and israelis. the 1st woman to serve as the u.k.'s defense secretary pretty mordant scott a term of 2 a controversial start she's drawn the amnesty international by proposing to limit the authorities ability to investigate and prosecute british veterans accused of war crimes while on active duty. it would be utterly disingenuous to have a presumption of mom prosecutions for abuse yet at the same time claim justice is
5:17 am
being soft british soldiers who break the law must face just like everyone else these proposals potentially set a dangerous precedent. here when rights group isn't the only organization concerned about the proposal either particulars pretty mordant was to extend for texans to troops who served in northern ireland 2 with more on the controversy bullyboy. the new boss in here has proposed a new law one that would presume soldiers innocent of any offenses committed throughout the course of a broad more than 10 years ago although that rule could have exceptions for example if new evidence of alleged crimes were to come to light it is high time that we change the system and provide divide legal protections to make sure the decisions how service personnel take in the battlefield will not lead to repeated or unfair investigations down the line for the new defense secretary the new legislation is about making the system fairer and preventing what she called law fare repeated and
5:18 am
unfair investigations against former soldiers this is not about preventing someone who's committed a crime from facing justice this is about stopping industries that surrounds these processes which is not about the pursuit of justice i have the iraq historic allegations team spent 7 years trolling through allegations of murder torture wrongdoing at a cost of 60000000 pounds to the taxpayer none of the claims resulted in a prosecution and in 2016 the unit was shot down just because i competed 72 as you know all with the infantry or associated units i lost many men. and i was involved in fatality shootings i was investigated along with others. the investigations were. aggressive and bloody awful to go through
5:19 am
so well former soldiers and members of the military say that the amnesty doesn't go far enough that it needs to include northern ireland 2 human rights groups are concerned that the government's desire to better protect its former and current servicemen and women will effectively place them above the law it's reported that there are around $150.00 investigations looking into alleged abuses by british soldiers in iraq and afghanistan the question is how the victims of those alleged abuses will ever get justice if these new proposals become law because so many detained so many killed the troops are the reason for the total destruction that the fate of those detained by them remains unknown to them. of course some against an amnesty because of the systematic killing some of the blood they say
5:20 am
since no one cares we have to demand our rides through international courts because we're just simple people who just can't go by as selves to get our horses heard on the one article there is great concern here that the crimes will be forgotten many people haven't received any compensation for the damage those who lost their homes or became disabled what they're trying to do is create an exemption from europe you know for soldiers on the battlefield that's obviously really dangerous because obviously the battle is one place where there's not a very wonderful people civilians armed others who might not be part of that whose human rights need to get those soldiers should have understood what they need to say just sr if you committed you or if we should you get punished if you haven't you don't so there shouldn't be an honesty or exemption for anyone anywhere couldn't find an easy way to say that we will now bring all of these veterans back into the war and this will be our intention from the. a few through the philippines
5:21 am
and canada over waste disposals escalated with manila recalling assam busseron staff this last wednesday as after canada refused to take back 100 shipping containers of household waste it said to the philippines back in 2030 that the recall shows that we are. very serious in asking them to get back there are other ways. severe relations with them it was later discovered the waste of being mislabeled as containing recyclable plastic in 2016 accord in the philippines all of the canadian company to take that rubbish back again but it continues to languish in the landfill site then last month the philippines president stepped in escalated the standoff will declare war against canada we can take them down i'll return the trash just wait and see i will advise canada that your garbage is on the way prepare grant reception eat it if you want to back in 2017 then the canadian prime minister said he was ready to work on
5:22 am
a solution. this is now theoretically possible to get it back but there's still a number of questions around who will pay for it where the financial responsibility is where the consequences are so about to the present the foreign affairs analysts we spoke to admit this is justin trudeau has failed to make good on those promises patently. very long time to the. unfortunately recipient of tall seek ways including nuclear waste all from the united states in software western allies so this issue has been lingering for quite long time canadian walls however a sour point for for the for the peace partner president you're going to target because with no plans or justin trudeau was here in 2 years to go for the odyssey and saw me he promised that they're going to take back the price all the garbage. was left here lingering it's 2030 and you know to your scheme that is not happening
5:23 am
i mean you can even go over to say that this was a private deal between a canadian company and it filippi to conquer part of the 1st get it is also good say that you know it's not only because he gets all these also whoever it was able to accept these back in 2013 the philippines this is the greatest diplomatic crisis president to launch i lace philippines and canada. the north stream to project a gas pipeline that's intended to pump russian gas to europe where the baltic sea passed an important milestone this last week with over 50 percent of the construction completed and we brought you exclusive access to one of the vessels laying the pipes out. there you have it what's probably going to be the longest spaghetti strength and the wall that is making its way through the seawater and the pace is why
5:24 am
so. a lot. so we're protecting germany we're protecting friends works a lot of these countries and numerous other countries go out and make a pipeline here we thank. you be honest with you one of the fingers over i mean we have probably all over the world political view shouldn't really remember the end of the deal if you will not supply your someone else who will work if you get it. and that's the way some of the week shapes up around us as reported by r.t. international moscow thanks for watching this program the round up of what's happened if you want to get the stories happening right now checking the website t.
5:26 am
was a real if they gave it to you they got the guys who know people it's supposed to it's when it gets you know what's good. that's the time to get. if you ask if they're finished that you give. those who they're supporting cast and they have they don't care about the beer they don't kill or the stability of libya. is about their own agendas and so we might be bugged here for a long time you can be really assuming a war that continues for for a long time. over the years i've talked to you about the insect control is a show of the economy where all humans are becoming like the colony of insects the
5:27 am
house and that's all enabled by this 5 be enabled surveillance that pretty cool right. doesn't it. max one thing we learned on our journey from the genesis block to the moon is that honey badger don't care and 2014 is definitely a year from honey badger not to care honey badger don't care is the meme of the best describes the antifragile nature of bitcoin unlike for example a banking system that is fragile whenever you have volatility shock stress or any
5:28 am
kind of impact for this service and because the system adapts it grows and becomes more resilient so we use the honey badger as an analogy because even though he might be small and might look at offensive you get back a lion that it's like a honey badger and he's going to care they're not going to be able to do anything he's too strong so it's kind of like a bit conspiratorial since it cannot be stopped and you cannot be change significantly about any single party so basically even if some kind of a user or a union wants something different even if some regolith or one something different even if a city sees one something different from it going because he doesn't care and so far because he showed to be a pretty good group pretty good on you badger he resisted to any kind of attempt to take you to get over and changed fundamentally you can just keep attacking and attacking and attacking and it will not care and in fact it thrives when you attack
5:29 am
it be quaint as a grown up on the internet you know andreas antonopoulos a great speaker in this space as a great saying you know saying that because it is the sewer rat because big question is born on the internet and has been attacked 247 every single 2nd of every single day for the past. 10 years and it is still here which is a testament to both the original code that's a to put in there and the community that continues to shepherd the continues to to take out things like 0 days to fix exploits do anything that needs to be to fix anything needs to be fixed so that the rest of the world can continue transacting with this so honey badger doesn't care it to me just means that the power of the centralization of the queen and the fact that nobody controls it. remember we ended 2013 with the us government being one of the largest holders a big coin in the world thanks to their seizure of ross all breaks and silk roads coin it ends up being over 50000 between that they then auction off in 2014 but
5:30 am
january 2014 we start the year with a friend of kaiser report january 26th 2014 instant c.e.o. charged with money laundering charlie shrem c.e.o. of bit instant is arrested over allegations of money laundering in connection with silk road he is arrested at j.f.k. airport for charges filed and in manhattan federal court right i remember meeting charlie outside of the office of bit instant near silicon alley in new york city meeting with roger bear as well who was very active in the space and a friend of ours matthew mellon was also active in the space and an investor and bit instant and he was very excited about this new technology and he went to the office and they had a ticker tape set up with the price of bitcoin and this is part of that 1st wave again the pinwheels in the eyes of people that were transfixed by the technology who looked into the void of the coming fear.
