6:01 pm
good evening and welcome you watching our international. says that he called off a strike on iran with just 10 minutes to go and it comes amid escalating tensions between washington and tehran details the scale of more. 3 locations in iran were selected for a u.s. military strike according to what donald trump put on social media and 10 minutes prior to when a strike would have taken place donald trump determined that $150.00 people being killed as was the estimate was a disproportionate response to this striking down of a single on man drone so donald trump decided alternately not to go ahead with the attack against iran now the unmanned drone he was referring to was the u.s.
6:02 pm
drone that was shot down over the strait of hormuz now iran says that this drone violated their territory in the south of the country and that it was in their waters when it was shot down the united states maintains however that the drone was in international waters and it was an unprovoked attack by the iranians at this point we've got donald trump saying that he essentially called off a strike now prior to donald trump's announcement we did see him speak to the media in the aftermath of the drone being shot down by i made a big mistake and they made a very bad mistake. i mean. you know you'll find out you'll find. your you obviously obviously you know we're not going to be talking too much about it you're going to find out they made a very big mistake and now tensions between the united states and iran have been rising over the past few months in addition to the united states states withdrawing from the iran nuclear deal 1000 new u.s.
6:03 pm
troops were added to the middle east region in response to a supposed threat from iran furthermore the united states has blamed iran for attacks on oil tankers that took place on june 13th now iran says they are not responsible for those attacks and have evidence to prove it now at this point we've got many observers looking and saying that the way u.s. officials have spoken and conducted themselves regarding iran especially since the trial. but ministration has taken office the neighbors ability or terror everywhere we go in the middle east to surrender ran around major destabilizing in influence in the middle east spread death destruction and chaos the leaders over on our record here's the world's largest financial year of international terrorism behind every problem is iran's what we've been trying to do is to get iran to be him like a normal nation the united states is calling for a u.n. security council meeting to take place on monday the united states maintains that
6:04 pm
this drone was shot down in international waters and this was essentially an attack on the united states iran says it has wreckage of the drone and can prove that not only did the drone violate iran's territory in the south of the country but that it was shot down in iran's territorial waters so at this point all eyes on the international community and on the united nations security council in the hopes that things can be resolved i think i would say thanks be to god that he did it and they would have had far more than 150 people killed and although all his advisors pump aoa gina asphalt the torturer in chief bolton they're all constantly calling for the u.s. to attack iran he didn't do it so i would say that's a very good son maybe use harking back to his campaign promises of peace and nonintervention so let's hope the president acts like a man of peace that's what he needs a fact to be reelected i think probably the argument that if we went to war against
6:05 pm
iran he would end his presidency and he would not be reelected so i think that maybe had a fact on him it certainly should have had an effect we need to have the man who ran for office not the guy who surrounded himself with neo cons and warmonger the leading iranian national security official told us the country has never attacked anyone but is ready to repel any u.s. strike. all have rules. you can find out trump statements always different for example statements from yesterday and today he also contradicts white house officials such political matter is devoid of logic common sense of what we do not take seriously his threats and contradictory statements but in the end it must be noted that the islamic republic of iran is not iraq or afghanistan we are a big state and have strong popular support both during the present but also past hardships the islamic republic has been standing firm and never attacked anyone and
6:06 pm
will not do that if we are attacked me the aggressor well regret it at the same time we strive for peace and security in our region that is the policy of sanctions and the economic war launched by trump against the iranian people will not yield any results this is a hostile policy that will be defeated as a result. trumps the stakes with tehran the pentagon document shows it believes a nuclear war is winnable and could be a good thing tell you more on that later this hour. in his band russian airlines from flying to georgia starting from july 8th comes after huge rallies against russia and the georgian government in the capital tbilisi there is still ongoing is of course one of the evermore. well the the protests today a much smaller scale than they were yesterday yes there were thousands and thousands of very angry demonstrators clashing with police in the parliament today
6:07 pm
it's much smaller scale that rage seems to have been spent going out of got out of the crowds but there are still crowds about it's much more peaceful new writing nevertheless we've had a lot of reaction today coming in from the georgian president who blamed russia for stooping these anti russian protests which might seem like a very strange thing to do for russia to sort of begin and sparked. the russian protest nevertheless the kremlin has condemned the actions of georgian officials saying that they are using this situation to sow and see russian sentiment and they're trying to trying to sort of blame russia for the whole thing in get responsibility of their own shoulders. and into parliamentary assembly an orthodoxy a christian gathering intended to build relations between orthodox nations journeying that session russian parliamentarian was there in georgia and to deliver
6:08 pm
6:09 pm
well the police took full control of the situation by dawn on friday committed 5000 protesters took part in the in the really as i said this is demonstrations but georgian authorities. called out the people to refrain from bread breaking the law to behave themselves in a civil manner and it's going to be said you know 11 years now after conflict in the south a sense here between russia between georgia there is an underlying sort of anti russian sentiment enjoyed. 17 year old scottish student claims he was kicked out of class after saying there are 2 genders you know he filmed the teacher telling him off i think it's silly to have anything other than to change that ok
6:10 pm
anything he says these keep that opinion to your own house thank you not until you get to europe and you know why when i say i'm not my new house or state so i like watching night opinion and not getting my opinion ok i am stating what is a national school 40 policy ok. what's water. no every policy is scientific you know what you think and i know what authority thinks i know what the authorities point if you want to say very clear very clear that you make no discrimination on the grounds of videos you make in discrimination option pushing their 2 genders male and female anything else is a personal identification local authorities say the video doesn't show the full context of that exchange aberdeenshire council wants good relations between different groups and schools and an inclusive environment for all to discuss the issue with human rights activists potential and political commentator andrea book.
6:11 pm
i think from what we've seen obviously the people was was fairly challenging but i think it's within the bounds of reasonable debate and i think the teachers are actually quite stern and dismissive and maybe there is more to the exchange than was in the video but i think it's healthy and right that people's and teachers should have a robust exchange of views well i think peter set the tone for the debate by being quite measured and reasoned on the wider point what they don't accept of all is when we start pretending that somebody with male genitalia is in fact a woman i think the teacher was wrong to throw the boy out of the class and i think the boy was wrong to video the exchange however it is a fact that there are basically 2 genders are these morally wrong that anybody who says that should have any trouble from any public call for it say in the united kingdom or elsewhere where there are 2 genders male and female but there are people
6:12 pm
who have variations of both server example intersex people have a combination of both male and female chromosomes hormones and genitalia so it isn't strictly true that there are only male and female i'm not concerned about the science of brain gender or anything like that i simply say if you wish to transition from a man to a woman you own your body you have the right to do it but actually there is an issue of rights here if the teacher is right then what do you suggest to gays that the policy of the council is that you cannot say that there are only 2 genders and if you say that that is something that should be confined to the home absolutely this is a free speech issue peoples have a right to free speech that pupil whether you agree with him or not has a right to freedom of expression and that were his that's the right he was exercising in that school class should be
6:13 pm
a place where ideas are expressed with. challenge where they're refuted critiqued supported amplified that's what a good school is a good school as a place where ideas are contested. european commission leaders are further to agree on who will take up the reins of the blocks top posts summit for june 30th has been announced in another attempt to break the deadlock the commission president counsel present for other top jobs were meant to have been chosen already as peter all of. us deadlock in the european union over who will fill a number of the e.u. institutions top jobs including the european commission president and president of the european council those jobs currently held by john claude younker and donald the moment and they've been heading up talks to try and pick their replacements essentially however those talks have broken down one of the reasons that we're hearing that there's no solution so far wealth comes from leo varadkar the irish
6:14 pm
prime minister he said it was easier picking a pope than using the system that's used in the e.u. to pick a commission president as well as other top institution posts it's called the speech and candidate method method or system basically preferred candidate in germany is what it is it means that if you look at all of the different parliamentary groups in the european parliament whoever gets the most seats well there isn't candidate their preferred candidate gets looked at 1st by the e.u. heads of government if they like that can do this too well they put them forward to majority votes for them they put them forward to the european parliament parliament then votes on them and if they vote them through they become the next european commission president if they don't the whole system starts right over again with whoever came in 2nd as we understand it well so far the heads of government weren't
6:15 pm
that impressed with money who is the kind that. from the a.p. pay who got the most seats in the most recent european elections and also they weren't that keen on france timmermans from the socialists the european socialist group who got the 2nd highest amount of seats in the parliament so we really are all up in the air at the moment we are looking at a split between key power brokers inside the e.u. over this money we're mccrone and fronts he's not a fan at all of the spits and condit method and on the other side of that corridor and gillum urkel the german chancellor who wants to essentially see her man put into play. the next european commission president now money on what he's been while he's been speaking out against the system that's in play at the moment he's also you said the hot angler merkel throwing her hat into the ring you would have been inclined to vote for her i have nothing against a german candidacy i said it and was in a joke had the chancellor been a candidate i would have supported her because i think she has the qualities the
6:16 pm
skills to be a very good president of the commission it is not what she wants i respect that very deeply well i'm glad merkel has dismissed 80 chance of her running to be the european commission president she was speaking on friday she also tried to calm down rumors that baena a serious rift between berlijn and paris over who should get the european commission top job. and i still say no and i want to add that i'm a little bit sad that my words which accent so often and apparently not respected at all respect each other i do not want to make a decision against france and i believe that france doesn't want to make a decision against germany of the very latest it does seem that money isn't getting the amount of votes it meets from heads of government to be put forward as the next president of the european commission that hasn't stopped the german chancellor though for saying that she still bucks her mom in repeat what i said and. void any
6:17 pm
unnecessary questions we stand by our lead candidate the p.p. candidate manfred weber others stand by their lead candidate obviously those are quite tired looking the showing crowd young who addressed the press after this meeting broke down and he's searching for his own replacement however he did allow a joke his own expense because i know it's with satisfaction mused yes pleasure that it seems it's not easy to replace me. so with no decision from the heads of government of the states over who they want to see appointed as the next european commission president they're all going to have to come back again next week on the 30th of june for another round of talks in the go see a sions to try and hammer out a solution camp about with more news after this short break.
6:18 pm
quick now for those italians that want to keep their savings or put it into a big can escape to confiscation of the government or the bad again whatever runs the country over there and you'll preserve your wealth and jurisdiction that respects your sovereignty as an individual and respects your wealth don't live in a country that's just going to rip you off blindly. you know world of big partisan. and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made history media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the
6:19 pm
truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. come back to us congresswoman's received a fuss storm of criticism of to comparing detention centers for undocumented immigrants on the mexican border to nazi concentration camps. cortez is refusing to back down. the united states is running concentration camps on our southern border and that is exactly why they are there concentration camps. people across the us political spectrum slammed the comparison by a cast of cortez often referred to by have initials a c a local some members group
6:20 pm
say she needs to educate herself on the issue one polish m.p. invited the congresswoman to his country to see real concentration camps and formally inviting alexandria casso cortez to come to poland where i don't hitler set up the worst chain of concentration camps the world has ever seen so that she may see the scoring political points with inflamed rhetoric is unacceptable in our contemporary western societies and to take something that happened in history where millions of jews have died and equated to something that's happening on the border she owes this nation an apology a o.c. concentration camps assured slave labor supply to help in the nazi war effort even as to protect the of the life inside the camps have to assure the ultimate goal of extermination through labor or learn about concentration camps a you see do us all a favor and spend just a few minutes learning some actual history 6000000 jews were exterminated in the
6:21 pm
holocaust you demean their memory and disgrace yourself with comments like this. nazi and hitler comparisons of become a common argument in us political discourse. it is estimated that 6000000 jewish people were murdered in german concentration camps during world war 2 by comparison more than 50000000 babies have been aborted in the united states since 973. i like to see the president and the congress invest tens of billions in a new level energy i would point to the fact that it took roosevelt many many years to get america willing to go into world war 2 and fight the nazis or we have another me though different but perhaps very much devastating in
6:22 pm
a similar way to. even a zation of carbon dioxide it's just like the demonization of the poor jews under hitler government is actually a benefit to the world and for where the truth is. donald trump you are the president and all citizens of this country you must not inflame the hatred of some at the violent expense of others we've seen jews subjected to persecution. look at the ortez. when she said concentration and she knew that everybody would be thinking about it i she knew were what she was saying how explosive that phrase it is but she's an attention seeker. she knows how to play the media and she knew perfectly well that when she brought up the topic of concentration camps she would be on television everyone would be
6:23 pm
talking about c.n.n. interview. retreated was even more. ridiculous than cortez's original comment because that speech it. was a african american political activist. named him which shouted explicitly said or we have concentration camps and then we're going to have the death camps holocaust is just something you use as a root a rhetorical trick in order to try to beat people in the political argument. they could have an embassy in london spied on wiki leaks founder julian assange have to learn number a know became president that's according to police recordings of alleged extortionists trying to get money from a song just team by threatening to release the material existence of a spanish reporter into computer experts their information all included video and

just driving the trump administration's iran policy is confusing contradictory and even incoherent would be an understatement as members of his administration beat the drums of war the president suddenly inject themselves into the conversation with words to the contrary what is the world thing. oh why a paradise with some ground turned into a round the experimentation field for agricultural chemicals we know that these chemicals have consequences they are major irritants there's no question otherwise why would that the chemical company workers themselves be geared up that suited up locals attempt to combat the on regulated experiments that often in day you have many of these people who have one foot into the biotech pharma and the other foot in the government regulatory bodies this kind of collusion is reprehensible while the battle goes on the chemicals continue to poison hawaii and its people so one
