7:02 am
alert after police in neighboring launched a major operation against what it said were organized crime suspects. the move comes amid rising tension in certain dominated northern kossovo belgrade warned it would react swiftly if kosovo attacked serbs there serbia lost control over kosovo after a nato intervention in 1909 did not recognize his 2008 declaration of independence. quarter joins me live now in the studio with more on this hi don so as it stands we've got an ongoing police security operation in cos it was a correct yeah absolutely these tensions with serbia suddenly spiked earlier today after kosovo secret police was deployed into a serb minority region of northern coast of all now serbian state t.v.
7:03 am
says that 23 people were detained mostly serbs and bosniaks and the serbian president alexander has put the military on high alert the secret police claim it was actually following a long investigation into organized crime into the area but one serbian official marco. says that the raid was aimed at intimidating serbs now nato also commented on the situation and not surprisingly they took kosovo side. of the police operation was conducted over the whole tour to of course were not just a move and differently was an. it was aimed at fighting against crime and corruption. i also alluded a little bit earlier in the headlines there are reports about a russian citizen being beaten tane i imagine information is quite sketchy on the ground about this what can we say yeah well this came out of a serbian parliament earlier today when president bush spoke about the situation he
7:04 am
said that an employee a russian employee of the u.n. mission to kosovo was arrested and he also said that not only that but he was beaten as well let's take a listen to what he said. the nuclear the. one russian citizen across an ocean cove an employee of the u.n. was also beaten and detained we notified the relevant russian authorities about this and the russian foreign ministry wasn't very happy about the arrest of the citizen either as a hot of of the ministry spokesperson said that this is only going to lead to escalating tensions in the region. it is obvious to such a provocative behavior by kosovo is the result of u.s. and e.u. long term policies of indulgence tour of them because of very leaders they're used to being excused everything such steps lead to the ask a lesion of the ethnic tensions and makes efforts of the international community for the post conflict regulation completely useless down there is a long standing out of all city in this region not much we're aware of give us
7:05 am
a brief box yeah absolutely well the ethnic tensions in the region seriously worsened after the nato bombing of kosovo back in 1909 separatist insurgency came to power in kosovo and declared independence in 2008 now to this day the serbian government doesn't recognize that declaration and it also considers the nato intervention to be a breach of international law. they . will know that. the parliament of the republic. so as you can see this this problem this ethnic tensions in the region this is really been going on for a while and earlier today president bush warned the e.u. european union that serbia will take action if kosovo secret police has not
7:06 am
withdrawn from the region in which they were sent earlier today so you know perhaps we'll see some more reactions from the international community and who knows how much longer these terms it will continue very much a developing story don thanks very much for keeping us right up to date on the correspondent double quarter. right moving on to more world news today donald trump is encouraging japan to increase its military capability the u.s. president to use in tokyo say japan could help the u.s. defend against threats in the asia pacific region and beyond that's a quote america's vice president mike pence touched on those perceived threats to during a speech at the elite military academy west point and he betrayed got the story. you will fight on a battlefield for america some point your life if you didn't notice the words in the background that was mr vice president talking to the graduates of a top class u.s. military academy and that wasn't it how do you like this degree of certainty it is
7:07 am
a virtual certainty that you will fight on a battlefield for america some point your life. you will lead soldiers in combat. you will have so what is the 2nd most important official in the country trying to make clear by that the good old boots on the ground will certainly be on the way to quite a few different places after all come on no one in this world would dare to send an army against america to put up a fight there nobody will realistically send soldiers to attack the superpower of all superpowers and so men and women of west point no matter where you're deployed . you will be the vanguard of freedom here they are the future of basters of freedom you look at their faces and frankly it doesn't seem they're in raptures over what mr pence is saying but let's hear where in the world we might expect to
7:08 am
see a boost in freedom in the days to come some of you will join the fight against radical islamic terrorists in afghanistan. and iraq oh these are familiar places where the pro says so to say began a while ago soon it will be 20 years any more destinations some of you will join the fight in europe where an aggressive russia seeks to redraw international boundaries by force probably in this area it's a bit of an exaggeration that the graduates will find themselves on a battlefield taking part in nato as big war games there that's more like it. well at least for now it's only been in the form of drills for now and finally the
7:09 am
most curious part and some of you may even be called busy upon to serve. in this hemisphere it won't be rocket science for you to figure out where the boots on the ground money to be marching off to next in the western hemisphere then there is a well off where for the white house it's a classic all options are on the table plus we heard from the opposition big guy there one why don't he wouldn't mind at all it's reflex this administration that has been gunning for war in iran for a war in venezuela. seems to think that the us is allowed to do regime change in other countries and take other countries resources i think that it reflects this idea that the united states is the only superpower in the world and
7:10 am
it gets to wage war if it wants to and certainly continue the wars that we have been in these in war as the president trump said he was going to get us out of and we continue to be in those who are supporting other wars proxies like saudi arabia and threatening new wars. and i want to stay with things from washington because donald trump is also going head to head with intelligence services in the u.s. he's demanding declassifying the origins of the miller investigation into trump russia collusion the special councils to europe probe found no evidence of criminal conspiracy between the trump campaign on the russian government during the 2016 presidential election our senior correspondent morocco's the of looks now at how the mass media has shifted its stance on whether the us president can question the activity of the intelligence services or not. the thing with spies with
7:11 am
all this secrets and power and egos is that it really seems to goo to their heads and honestly how can you blame them they are literally be yawned public scrutiny and he wouldn't tries to stick their nose in you just stamp everything that's classified and loudly denounce them as unpatriotic see it is a very very serious and outrageous move on the part of mr trump once again trampling upon the statutory authorities of the director of national intelligence and the heads of the independent intelligence agencies how dead trump what true american would ever question why they're being wiretapped and spied upon good thing america has m.s.n. be she true patriots. mr brennan full time so he can vent his frustrations for everyone to hear of course to do that m.s.n. b.c.
7:12 am
had to sacrifice their principles and integrity president obama said today he still stands by his cia chief john brennan even though it turns out the cia was indeed spying on the senate and some senators are calling for brennan to be fired now just to be clear that was in 2014 when they weren't on the same side and spying on everyone your own elected leaders included was considered dubious these is 2019 and the word spying is now considered politically incorrect it offends people whose people who secretly eavesdrop and record and film everyone agents the good guys. a talking point from the president and those around him telling congress buying did occur on the trump campaign it's a loaded word stupid. the implications of using that word has now gone trump's
7:13 am
favorite new word and the trump media's favorite new word. senate intelligence chair dianne feinstein accuse brennan cia of secretly tracking the senate's investigation into one of the worst abuses in recent cia history and now factor in this huge new scandal the fact that brennan cia was spying on members of congress the cia was spying on the senate intelligence committee basically busting into their computers but i give m s n b c too much credit or others to washington post gave brennan his own column where he publishes pieces with nubile noble titles i will speak out until integrity returns to the white house promises well done washington post it takes courage to set aside what you believe in to go back on your word but again it's been 5 years who remembers things like that right the guardian same thing. cia director john brennan
7:14 am
lied to you on to the senate fired him. why is donald trump attacking the u.s. intelligence community surprisingly brennan isn't working for the guardian yet one by one though the pundits and the seeing wrong from right the question is are they going to demand brennan's resignation or accountability within the cia patriotic answer by the way is no holding the cia accountable would be sure to put a secret agents do top secret stuff and drink martinis and add things and carry out special secret missions i didn't see anything improper on lawful and yes james clapper brennan's former boss is now a c.n.n. employee. e a tell you this every true american can be proud of their
7:15 am
a brave brave people watch over you and record everything you do or say they and night whether you wanted or not and if times or politics change in 5 years who will remember it ever happened. steve there will a fake quotes attributed to president from past gone viral on social media and some are not using it as an example of how false news can spread. president trump in talk show. is smarter and would make a better president than sleepy joe biden.
7:16 am
darn sure your shoulders don't get used to this insanity the president of united states praising a cruel dictator who violates human rights through nuclear attacks or process his people and kills political opponents is not freaking normal is this one dog became our president was it when he kowtow to putin and house thank you. ian bremmer now admits that he made up a completely ludicrous quote attributing it to me this is what's going on in the age of fake news people think they can say anything and get away with it really the libel no should be changed to hold fake news media accountable. he displayed in misinformation thinking that his proven something he's proven that he's not a reliable source of information and should not have a trusted again even as
7:17 am
a media i teachers in finland fly got concerns about muslim students fasting during ramadan i'll explain why after the break. after the previous stage of my career was over everyone wondered what i was going to do next the book different clubs on one hand it is logical to sort of go from fields where everything is familiar on the other i wanted a new challenge and the fresh perspective i'm used to suppressing. or not if you think. i'm going to talk about football not be or else you can think i was going to do.
7:18 am
by the way ways of the flying here. seem wrong why don't we all just don't all. get to shape out these days become educated and in gains from an equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. with our t. international teachers in finland have expressed concern over muslim students fasting during the holy month of ramadan they claim it affects the students' concentration during classes. ramadan is noticeable due increasing sidey never d. school life we cannot 1st feature nor give injections of nutrients we can do is
7:19 am
advise parents not to force children to fast fasting for young children can be successful at home not at school without food yet so this year ahead of authorities in a southern finished city called on schools not to observe the fast some institutions have reportedly been offering water around extended breaks to muslim students the holy month of ramadan which ends on monday is the most sacred in the muslim calendar people abstain from food and drink from sunrise on till sunset it's considered to be a month of purification on the 4th a key pillar of islam. meanwhile politicians in germany including the health minister is calling for a more cum possible form of islam to be promoted to preserve european traditions and culture. instead of tolerating symbols of a reactionary missal journalistic form of islam we must promote the development of a european islam which shares our values in order to preserve our free european way
7:20 am
of life or we discussed a comment on the issue at large earlier and really the crux of the rock came down to the line between faith and flexibility. the central principles of the stomach faith are non-negotiable in this same where the jewish community won't be told what they can or cannot believe and i think that's a really dangerous precedent is cross your of this war only slum which is about demonizing and taking away the rights of muslims to practice their faith finished. sensibly do run the best education system in the world with their liberal nordic mind decided that they wanted to help muslim kids out a little bit and are trying to inject a little bit of liberalism and a little bit of tolerance into people who otherwise should know better there is so called liberal societies like the scandinavian countries who talk about liberalism who talk of individual freedom of speech and if you do a choice but in reality you want to restrict that for one section of society enough
7:21 am
and that's deeply wrong if you go to tampa and you meet the finnish muslims and my kids are half inish you will see that they are very accustomed very tribal eyes come from a certain culture and tradition they're not used to having open dialogue integration liberal tolerant values which came from the islamic traditions to europe in the 1st place so muslims do need to change they need to get back to a key understanding of what islam is what islam isn't and we need to get our house in order because muslims have got problems to deal with there is a wider discussion to be had you know the muslims are very passionate. and we've got to ensure that we educate our fellow citizens who are not was about the benefits but also about the challenges of look i think whether it's the issue of fasting whether receive the headscarf whether it's the any other range of issues when we're talking about how islam co-exists a lot of debate a lot of pressure on how do muslims whether they assimilate or whether they
7:22 am
integrate key point here is about tolerance it's about respect and for muslims it's about returning to the prophetic way which is one of tolerance to respect multi-faith coexistence and i can raise an. the islam you see today i'm not saying people should go to hard manichean issue but we need to learn the values of tolerance and liberalism back from the europeans who took it from us in the 1st place and the islam that people are trying to move back to north sure that's the way it should be. centrist and the style bushman parties have been dealt a bloody nose in this year's european parliamentary elections many countries across the blocks or right wing green and liberal functions topped the polls on the show dubinsky reports there was no shortage of political drama in the run up by the. 4 months pundits have been predicting a rise in anti establishment parties ahead of the e.u. elections afterwards they were right but across the bloc in the weeks leading up to the vote panic was setting in and let's be clear that panic was and without

of course not a single troll in sight. it was of course if. the party which was in coalition. people's party found itself under the spotlight not for its potentially dubious policies but for a good old cash influence gambit. revici's. he says there was even an attempt to drag le pen's name into the thick gate as it became known a few months ago marine le pen was singing the praises of austrian vice chancellor heinz christian straka saying how formidable he was struck as being forced to resign we find out why he was trying to sell his services to foreign forces behind

this nationalist movement is a submission to foreign forces despite this the f p o still managed to pick up just over 17 percent of the vote in austria. there was also of course the elections very own 2 moment one swedish democrats candidate accused the other of sexual harassment and even though this scandal washed away it didn't hamper the anti immigration party's performance they increased their share of the vote to more than 15 percent. and despite merkel macro needs our warning that populist parties wanted to destroy europe we are heading to deal with populist movements that in many areas are contemptuous of our of fail use and want to destroy the europe of the values we represent we have to stand up to this these parties significantly increase their

representation in many parts of the e.u. sex money the long arm of washington reaching for controlling europe nothing seem to put voters off seeking something new what is clear from the results of these elections is that the old gods could no longer count on the masses to support them implying face what europeans want is something different it seems but godless won't that is show that deep ski auti paris get out her news for naught but delving into the subtle manipulation is thought to go into it simple online search next especially when it comes to personal information or documentary creepy line this right ahead.

a source of optimism because i can control my own financial destiny it's just a new way of coming to consensus it's a game changer in the human history this is columbus discovering a new world this paradigm shifting technology that transforms economics and finance in a heartbeat the apollo 11 landing on to the max and stacey. and we don't know what facebook's aims are in fact facebook doesn't know what its aims are because it's going to be the sum total of all the people who are working on these algorithms a whistleblower someone who used to work for facebook came forward last year and said i was one of the news sure eaters at facebook a bunch of us used to sit around every day and we used to remove stories from the news feed that were too conservative and now and then we inject a story that we saw it was really cool. facebook founder mark zuckerberg says he's
7:29 am
committed to giving everyone a voice news from responding to an allegation that facebook edits conservative views out of its trending topics they can sit back 30 types of results based on what they think you should be seeing based on what your followers are presenting now a new report claims that according to a former facebook employee the social media mega company sometimes ignores what is actually trending among its 1000000000 users if the story originated from a conservative news source or if it's a topic causing buzz among conservatives. facebook costly minute. users they do it by the things that they insert into the news feeds they do it by the types of posts they allow their users to see and the fact that they actually decided to do psychological experiments on the users is something that i think a lot of people need to really fully understand and they were doing it based upon
7:30 am
the fact that different things that people posted they want to see how other people would react to it. to help watch why your facebook friends posts can have a direct effect on your mood new research shows the more negative posts you see the more negative you could become. so if for example let's say somebody wanted to post something that was on the news feed that was a very negative story they wanted to see how their users would react via their likes by their statements for their posts and they would show people who already had a predilection to maybe having some depression or maybe having some other issues in their lives and they can figure that out based upon your like space the pine your connections based upon where you're going and so what they want to do is take that information and then use it to basically weaponize this information against their users so that way their users could see different things that may affect their mood and may affect how they interact with others and that's something that is highly unethical it appears.
