i. i. the u.s. sends an additional $1000.00 troops in the middle east to meet growing tensions with iran as a recent report claims the american military is more environmentally polluting than whole countries. the canadian region says people in the public sector can't wear religious symbols the work rights activists say the new law violates religious and personal freedom. and a new social media platform set up by controversial right wing figure gordon peterson ignites debate he says they will sense any content unless he was authorities order it.

good morning this is out internationally for moscow with me kevin owen just turned 9 am now this tuesday morning 1st than the u.s. has ordered an additional 1000 troops to the middle east amid an escalation in tensions with iran is big news this morning washington says the forces are for defensive purposes to address threats in the region still over and says left questions left unanswered there about what's really going to happen there next the move comes after washington blame to run for an alleged attack on oil tankers in the gulf of oman last week around really denies any involvement in that spreading america's statement to sabotage diplomacy there was a twist yesterday then of course around vowed to boost its production of low level enrich to radium and surpass therefore the stockpile limits set by the 2015 nuclear agreement is a story we're going to continue to track potentially more developments on that over the coming hours and days we'll keep you posted on it now meantime something often talked about really when we're talking about the pentagon's military adventures around the world. it's how they affect the environment around us and that's what

we're going to cover next a recent study revealed that the u.s. military produces more greenhouse gases than entire countries like sweden or denmark most emissions are directly due to defense related consumption from the use of jet diesel fuel don't work orders got but story this morning. forget single use straws and plastic bags there's a much bigger problem wreaking havoc on mother nature its war the pentagon's wars to be exact i . 59000000 metric tons of greenhouse gases that's how much the u.s. defense department spewed into the atmosphere in 2017 alone brown university says the d.o.d. is both the largest oil consumer and institutional polluter in the world there are entire countries that don't emit as many fumes portugal finland and sweden to name

a few how is that possible well the u.s. military does have a presence in over 150 countries it's 560000 buildings worldwide make up 40 percent of its greenhouse emissions the rest is from military operations which in 2016 used up 86000000 barrels of fuel that's in afghanistan pakistan syria you get the picture and it's not like americans are electing people who understand wars environmental impact the department of defense must do more than simply acknowledge or take piecemeal action to address climate change while it's increasingly threatens in homs own military's infrastructure and operations even the pentagon itself says it's worried about climate change the facts of the changing climate are a national security issue with potential impacts to department of defense missions operational plans and installations the top brass might say they're concerned but

their words certainly are not matching their actions in fact the u.s. military budget may see its 5th consecutive year of growth in 2020 despite spending more than the next strongest militaries combined the d.o.d. is not cutting back it's actually preparing for more military ventures and considering u.s. iranian tensions are escalating in the persian gulf there are few signs of any turning back. the last 4. major national security threats both have all of them identified. as being one of those huge threats and yet it soon activities are leading to exacerbate there is this serious threat to global ready security i didn't answer which is crime and yet rather than doing anything serious to tackle the problem literally expenditures do seem to be oriented towards crew to global. climate

change and in many other ways one other news live footnote to this coverage later poland is to get an extra 1000 troops to take them from the contingent already in germany later in the program we'll see what might be behind their relocation. controversial battle wearing religious symbols has been passed in canada's quebec province for people working in the public sector or makers of call the move the right to have secular public services and separate state and religion the legislation will affect government employees police and teachers for example it will apply to muslim headscarves jewish skullcaps and other various symbols last minute changes to the bill also included the introduction of inspectors will be tasked with ensuring people abide by the new law some in quebec have criticized the move for violating basic rights the prime minister has once again suggested the

quebec values are incompatible with fundamental rights the 16th of june 21000 is a very said date that has just entered the history books of quebec a date that will forever mark a vision of quebec that divides rather then brings together that excludes rather than includes that stigmatizes rather than reconciled. will there be police officers going off to people to check if they have religious signs we don't know it's not clear we didn't even have time to analyze his modification clearly they did it in a very undemocratic way. small foolishness is supposed university lecturer or an amateur and travis pattern the leader of the canadian national is putting. down the rabbit hole we go because what is religious and what it's not i tend to believe that politics and religion are intertwined necessarily to a certain degree and at the end of the day when you say wedding rings could be seen as a religious symbolism the next step out of that could be the apparel people

wear not just talking about face veils that dresses women wear or their clothes men wear and what this is really pointing to is a code back that is known in canada to be fierce about protecting their identity and that is why the combat voters voted in a nationalist populist government with the ca q. and right now as the premier missile a guy out himself says they're getting exactly what they voted for. well the problem is whenever you're prevented from doing something that you feel that you should have the right to do or that something that's so important to you on a very fundamental level like as some as many muslims say about their religion you are really setting it up for a lot of class i think both demonstrations and likely physical clashes because

people believe that their existence is on the line and they feel that they are justified to use any means necessary to fight for what they feel is their right so that anybody feels that their rights are being taken away from them then we can expect there to be as i said i think physical clashes and it's going to all be under the rubric or the guise of islamophobia they're going to say it's a blatant attack against a particular group and when you're fighting for that cause this has you know potential ramifications globally where people say oh we thought that it was such a welcoming diverse country but it seems that at least part of it back is islamic phobic and who knows what kind of repercussions we can expect moving forward when people from other countries might decide to make a statement beyond a simple protest. controversial psychologist and author jordan painter said this launched

a free speech platform called think spot and it's got one key principle that's no censorship since his social media site will only remove content if ordered to do so by u.s. authorities and what it has made launched yet is what he calls the stairs and he's pretty boy has been funny. if they won't let you in the club just to set up your own that's the philosophy behind a brand new anti censorship social media platform that's hitting the web this summer i think spot will be an intellectual playground for censorship free discourse that's according to its founder controversial academic and bestselling author jordan peterson the canadian professor is a divisive figure hated by the left and dariya fide by the right earlier this year he was snubbed by the most intellectual of british institutions cambridge university he was supposed to have a visiting fellow ship this sort of him but that offer was rescinded after

a backlash from star students this was jordan peterson's response to the decision at the time what do you think it says about free speech in britain that cambridge university made an announcement this week saying they were going to invite you to speak i don't think it says more about the nature of the universities in general than about free speech in general i mean i don't see all the my disinvited taishan has compromised more in free speech ability because i have so many platforms on which i can discuss my ideas according to peterson's latest video think sport will be a subscription service where controversial creators will be able to monetize their free speech once you're on our platform we will take you down and list were ordered to by a us court of law that's the idea so we're trying to make an anti censorship

platform one of the b. to test is of the site will be anti feminist you tube or call benjamin his you tube channel sagal and of a cat was recently downgraded after he made offensive comments about raping a brit. politician he was also banned from crowdfunding site patriot last year olds right poster boy milo yet not police suffered the same fate for jordan peterson and his community patriotic as actions to block these prominent commentators was the final straw doesn't look like moving to an alternative provider an alternative commercial product provider that's out of or bailiwick out of our control is going to be viable critics argue that an anti censorship platform could in practice turn into a safe place for extremists and the person who most publicly to test the platform is somebody who's not only joked about raping somebody but then doubled down on it

saying well if i was junk enough maybe i would you know this is this man is very dangerous because i mean he's interested in much overlap with mine and i mean to student of you and many others that you and pizza is interested in but because he has that learning and speak something and this is going to be fiery but very to support the creation of peterson's think spot say that western society need somewhere to exchange ideas without fear of reprisals and clampdowns the major point that we have to defend and cultivate prioritize what i think gauging and the robust discussion in public life is that no situation anywhere as an adult is free of risk in that we enter into these things to try and get something out of it it's hard to argue with the numbers alternative thinkers like jordan peterson and the rest of his self-styled intellectual dark web have attracted millions of

subscribers that suggests that audience is all gagging for their free speech barrows not to be gagged. bolen's preparing 6 sites across the country to accommodate a 1000 extra u.s. troops that are being. ok today from germany moscow expressed concerns the move reflected aggressive intentions but explains next some think it's washington's way of exerting pressure on berlin. to meetin across the pond suddenly became news for germany when the american president pledged to send these families counterpart more u.s. troops from anywhere but we have $52000.00 troops in germany. and germany is not living up to what they're supposed to be doing with respect to later as poland is after you graduate you thank you very much strategically 1000 soldiers less than germany and a 1000 more in poland makes new big difference so what was the motive i think there

are several aims to what trump is doing one of them i think has to do with putting pressure on germany so he wants to play the polish card against the germans trampas trying to put more pressure on germany that germany is paying more for the military budget back in 2014 all nato member states promised to meet the guideline of spending 2 percent of their g.d.p. on defense within a decade half way to that deadline it's clear berlin will likely fail and that's driving washington nuts it's not yet clear when or how the american troops stationed here in germany will relocate to poland but trumps mere hint about them crossing the border was enough to put their lead on high alert and that was the purpose and it worked we heard from hart is usually on opposing sides of the political spectrum for germany's own sake we need to finally in a significant and permanent way that reflects our global commitments increase

defense spending. making sure the military is ready for the future is a question of solidarity with our e.u. and nato partners it's hard to say where they don't go further than words the recent poll suggests that the german public is deeply divided over a defense spending increase but it seems donald trump sprats backed by steps like they want to really kate u.s. troops from here to poland leave little choice some welcome this pressure after older lean made these commitments before trying became president this has nothing to do with the american presidents but with our responsibilities to our soldiers and to europe and credible burden sharing but others disagree they see or germany will see its biggest military budgets rise since the cold war by more than 5000000000 euros that's according to angle merkel but even that falls short of what nato and trump want somehow he's changed that for make america great again to make

nato great again that we're going to make the europeans pay more for their defense what they never what they never point out of course is defense against whom they say nato is not directed against russia although everybody knows that nato is directed against russia even though i don't think anybody honestly believes there is a russian territorial threat to any of these countries every new member states is a pad of the holy war machine you just need to represent and you have to overcome these war machine because these war machine all these dinos out is out of history what we need is to reduce the troops at the border to russia to bring the troops home the old slogan of the peace movement is actually an adequate but defense spending is not the only bone of contention between washington and the lean on just one of many aspects that separate poland from germany.

result of blows and contracts for one terrorist and sanctions for the other and soldiers shifted from germany to poland is the most recent italy's punitive measures but unlikely the last. break here not international when we come back among the stories we're covering the u.s. appoints a new envoy to cross the stricken city generating doubts over his past record we'll talk about it soon.

you know world big partisan movies a lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the bath 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. make this manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the famous merry go round be the one percent.

nor middle of the room 6. 1000000 real new. again good morning process leaders in sudan have declared the beginning of a revolutionary escalation amid the long lasting stalemate with the ruling military council while the international community is urging the sides to find a peaceful solution the u.s. has named veteran diplomat donald booth as its own voice now to sit down prompting much controversy over his track record with all details on what caleb maupin. as the situation in south sudan continues to spiral the united states has appointed a new special envoy to save the day although it's a strange one we at the state department are pleased to announce that the department has appointed ambassador down and eve booth as special envoy on sudan

his appointment demonstrates that the united states has a firm commitment to the sudanese people and efforts to advance a peaceful political solution not everyone is thrilled about donald booth the disapproval has been resoundingly the dart for women action group does not approve of the appointment of donald booth as the u.s. special envoy for sudan where holy disappointed by his tenure as special envoy to sudan and south sudan on the abandoned ministration and sincerely question his ability to produce tangible results for the us government or the people of sudan now the white house says that it's his experience with south sudan that makes him qualified however it is long record with the country that is the source of all the outrage donald booth was the special envoy to both sudan and south sudan under the administration of barack obama from 2013 to 2017 under his watch the civil war and human rights abuses escalated.

since 2013 over 400000 people have died 4000000 have been forced from their homes and 6500 have been recruited as child soldiers now in a raid on a pro-government village 232 people were killed amid the looting of homes and the weaponized use of rape and this is how u.n. officials described it rapes gang rape sexual mutilation abductions and sexual slavery as well as killings have become come. case in south sudan there's no doubt that these crimes up assists and because impunity so entrenched that every kind of norm is broken now the role of donald booth in this mess hasn't exactly been good in 2011 the united nations imposed an arms embargo on sudan however the united states didn't start abiding by it until 20163 years after the war was already in

full swing despite what seemed like strong international consensus favor going to bargo for several years the united states withheld support and an embargo was not put on the un security council agenda donald booth seems like a pretty big fan of the us and israeli aligned regime of south sudan actually work to get them a waiver from the white house over their use of child soldiers and he seems a little bit partisan when it comes to internal strife in the country here's a statement he made about the ousting of the vice president we do not believe it would be wise for him ashore to return to his previous position in juba so this is the man whose task it is to restore peace however if you look at his record he seems to have plenty of experience doing the opposite us never really carried out sincerely so sudanese didn't really care or could really follow policy from us because the us was against the very survival of the country the

mistake that was made by the united states and most a mistake made by the students go because you cannot ignore to suffering of people you must go by the economic though you must have energy real life and people in sudan was suffering and i knew sooner or later it would break and over and gordon's to go through during that whole period of. us didn't lift a finger to try to go the country even though before the break up with south sudan in 2000 whether sudan had the largest area. other bullied us go. nothing but keep punishing sudanese people keep going year this year keep funkhouser in cheap. police in york city a aging action after a chain of suicide deaths among offices in the latest case a 29 year old officer killed himself right outside the precinct where he worked he

is the 3rd death by suicide in the city's ranks in the last 2 weeks that the police commissioner described the situation as a mental health crisis that had to be addressed and depression is real and people need to understand that this is that ok i don't feel i don't feel myself i feel down i'll bring myself out of it sometimes it's a downward spiral that unless there is intervention from the outside it's not going to stop and something bad is going to happen you need to talk to someone one nonprofit organization that collects data on police suicides says the number of offices killed themselves exceeds the number of deaths while on duty it also says the numbers have been on the rise since $2161.00 former policeman told us they face simply too much pressure in the u.s. . police officers are the single most treasured tested men and women on the planet everything they're doing is criticized by the public their personal problems are being criticized by their families and then their behavior on both calls which is

a mixture of both personal and private or private and professional actions are being criticized by the command staff the public doesn't understand the pressure that the street cops have that the for the 1st responders do and that goes all the way to the detectives but for the most part it is it's a basic concept that these men and women are in a daily pressure cooker from every single angle of their lives and they have no they have no escape from that if that's a story that effect she goes on to say i want to go to a website called going to coincide and that is not what you think i get you can download breaking news story 2 mobile devices when i was here in moscow it's 2526 minutes past on this tuesday morning thanks for watching on to international.
