a very warm welcome to the program from all of us here at r t h q in moscow thanks for joining us this hour. the u.s. is piling more pressure on iran with a new round of major sanctions to hit tehran later on monday the escalation comes in response to iran's downing of a u.s. military surveillance drone which the islamic republic says violated its airspace but washington has expressed doubts over who is a really to blame for the attack we expect the president to announce an additional round of sanctions in response to iran's downing of an american unmanned vehicle president also had doubts as to whether or not the downing of our unmanned aircraft was actually authorized at the highest levels but we're not convinced that it was at the highest levels. the drone downing prompted a furious reaction from washington preparations to strike iran were minutes away
8:02 am
from being put into motion before donald trump intervened he later claimed he wasn't calling off the attack just postponing it but he also says he doesn't want to kill anybody unless it's absolutely necessary political opponents of the president accuse him of creating his own crisis. was president trance decision this week to call off that strike the right one. so it's like somebody setting a fire. to. pull a paper in and putting it out he helped create the crisis and then he stopped the attacks and as art is it goes down of reports washington's messages regarding iran are getting increasingly mixed just do it to run a marathon or to start a war as good a motto as any now according to iran the so-called b team of instigators ran out of breath whispering in donald trump's ear obliterate iran into a beating it's just do it the b. team being advisor john bolton the emirates israel and saudi arabia
8:03 am
a rare moment of unity between the latter bolton tried so hard apparently trump said this i have 2 groups of people i have dubs and i have hawks who have some say some hawks john bolton is absolutely a hawk is up to him he'd take on the whole world at one time ok it was almost mission accomplished until the us president decided otherwise at the last moment and saw all hawks turned against him there and the way that he announced it it shows weakness and it's not in our interest but what happens when our adversaries understand that he's never going to follow through with president trump was being urged by outside advisers not to carry out the strikes we don't know who they are or why he would share with them people not in the chain of command or in his defense circle incredibly classified information about a military strike on iran critics went as far as to accuse donald trump of changing his mind under the influence of tucker carlson
8:04 am
a celebrity faux anchor now something fastings happily the very people in some cases literally this same people who lured us into the iraq quagmire 16 years ago are demanding a new war this one with iran. the president to his great credit appears to be skeptical of this very skeptical how truly the media has never come close which is serving as the 4th branch of power even john bolton the mother of all hoax had to take trump's side saying that the president didn't just chicken out neither iran nor any other hostile actor should mistake us prudence and discretion for weakness our military is rebuilt new and ready to go if if he you know started out with the wrong decision and had the advisors saying to attack iran you know people would criticize and then if you cancels it then they'll criticize them for you know not.
8:05 am
showing resolve it's kind of assumed by a lot of people that the democrats are not the war party but it's not a party of peace and a lot of democrats want to show their toughness by saying you know we've got to stand up against iran and it could be just that as trump himself has been saying that he's neither a sinner or saint everybody was saying i'm a warmonger. and now they say. and. i think of neither you want to know that i'm a man with common sense and that's what we need in this country's government says not starting a conflict with world war 3 potential is good sense indeed he had when it comes to other statements on iran by trump and his servants alike well see for yourself we are prepared to talk to iran without preconditions right but iran needs to understand that we will never allow them to obtain a nuclear weapon so is it no preconditions or one precondition it's like telling
8:06 am
a kid they won't get candy until they eat their greens but then immediately giving them all the candy and it's not the only thing take this for instance when you think message you're trying to send you with this. i think they want to negotiate and now how about this donald trump whose stake in the time and pleasure of tearing into the iran nuclear deal but now once in agreement over his own i don't care which what kind of a deal it can be separate or it could be totally one on one talks whether it was or as i want to want to talk to you in the ayatollah or you're going to resonate you can have nuclear weapons and if you want to talk about it good otherwise you can live in a shattered economy for a long time to such a consistent inconsistency doesn't help understand what exactly washington wants from its foreign policy people need to have a lot more certainty that they're dealing with somebody who has some integrity.
8:07 am
sense of principle and when they say one thing they stick to it and trump is not that kind of a person you can't really bargain you make make you know major deals that affect the future of your country with somebody who turns on a dime and says something else. you know moments after he said something different so i think he's going to have a very hard time convincing iran and he's serious if he offers some kind of a deal to them. to dig deeper we now go live to turley boyle who's an economic and financial commentator now what would the economic consequences of an american strike on iran. yeah well you don't was a lot of window dressing going on right now but as far as the refs are concerned the 2 wrong thing are so common sense will prevail. i
8:08 am
think from a from a prior actual stone white so obviously it's going to be more difficult boil to come across but so are the biggest you are certain to part some part analogous to the rich. 2 trading positions there are a lot of the big banks especially in europe the whole idea of the derivatives it is it's very difficult but. you don't want any of those being triggered and a lot of the politicians will know make these grandiose statements that they don't really understand finance so our financial services were worked and it's all connected so that's coming from an economic or natural commentating going to be rather political but that's my biggest concern right now another important point is that some are warning that iran might respond by shutting down the strait of hormuz how would that escalate things. i think it would definitely escalate in terms of it having a massive logistical impact will be but. the problem with everything that's going on right now magically and also with economic situations around the world it's only
8:09 am
going to take one flashpoint if we call it a massive global recession crisis whatever you want to call that we're already 10 years or so polluted grew and we're due for a downturn anyway so my concern is really that's whether a war happens or not. one of these platforms is going to have a knock on. my on the following anyway because it's so connected when actually it's well exactly so far this is mostly been a back and forth between the u.s. and iran but with the strait of hormuz being a key shipping route for oil couldn't europe get dragged into this conflict and have to pick a side at that point. i think it might well. come to that i mean we heard a lot of sound bites from. years on the world is still sounding so that's good news i mean i'm still hopeful we certainly don't want to get any further into
8:10 am
that's. charlie boyle economic and financial commentator thank you so much for joining us on the program today. the parents of critically ill palestinian infants who have been taken from gaza to a better equipped hospital in israel are being denied access to their children that's because exit permits are far harder to obtain for adults are met a family that lost 2 children while separated. the boy and going to i was 7 months pregnant and they diagnosed it as early labor but since i had an in vitro fertilization they didn't have the necessary facilities . and. my application was very urgent and i should have gotten approval very quickly
8:11 am
from the coordination office because the lives of the mother or children could have been endangered but it took the coordination office 5 days. to get close to him and they said my surgery went fine and the stitches would be removed in gaza i told them i'd least want to stay to breast feed the babies and they said no i kept crying it wasn't easy for me to leave them i didn't know they would leave or die and i went home devastated. one day felt so bad i was exhausted and it was the same night i heard that one girl had died her name was milan she died one week after i went home that. sort of when when after a while they told me the other child was not doing well they didn't say he was dad
8:12 am
then they. and he had to sit in the blood then they told me that he's heart stopped . someone called me from the card nation office and told me you have 10 minutes to get ready and go pick up your daughter so my husband told me some point to go right now and pick her up to the shop so much during those 5 months like i had to endure a lot of suffering and depression but i think gone all of that went away when i saw my daughter. israel justifies its land air and sea blockade of gaza by arguing that it prevents local militant groups from launching attacks the un though has criticized it progress at the israeli body responsible for coordination between palestinians and ministration and television has now responded to our requests for comment stressing
8:13 am
it assists palestinians and delivering health care despite not being responsible for it physicians for human rights israel and israeli medical n.g.o.s says most children travel without their mothers or fathers according to them more than $7000.00 permits were issued for minors from gaza last year and fewer than 2000 for parents. who's from the n.g.o.s told us more about the situation. there is no specific period to have of the season in inquiries for permits it can be one month and it can be half a year we had cases where people waited for more than one year to affirm it or to have any kind of decision regarding their inquiry between the kids and their parents influence their psychological and social situation and we know that it also influenced and the process of the treatment itself. in all the
8:14 am
trumpet ministrations middle east peace plan has been rejected by palestine critics accusing washington of trying to bribe arabs into making political concessions because really it's all going to cross that story after this short break. what holds us to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so what you want to present interim. or something want to. achieve right to be this is what the. real people are. interested always in the waters at the heart of. their city.
8:15 am
some time and shows were like a honeypot everyone believe that it was all on stable and on the reliability of russia but they sold that every one was great over the russian businessmen wanted to do business in the west because they feared some could take everything away from them in russia which now is the opposite they have businesses outside of russia are snatched less is frozen. old blog now the student whine about. welcome back the trump administration's peace plan for the middle east officially unveiled at a workshop in bahrain has been slammed for allegedly trying to bribe the palestinians into giving up certain political ambitions and offers them 50000000000 dollars
8:16 am
worth of investment and exchange for some key concessions are to gaza explains why palestine has already firmly rejected it. is trump not generous not fair and merciful who outs would offer palestinians such generous conditions such great perks and amazing bonuses that someone else is presumably going to pay for it don't call it the deal of the century for nothing you know and just as with all great deals it's totally secret political side and the economic side are 2 very robust efforts our thought was that it was better to put the economic plan 1st makes sense when you are offered a job anyone would 1st want to know how much you get paid rather than what the job is and this pays a great $50000000000.00 an investment though they have no idea where that's going to come from a 1000000 jobs in what's left of palestine unemployment slashed to shreds and
8:17 am
still the palestinians are unhappy 1st lift the siege of gaza stop the israeli theft of our land resources and funds give us our freedom of movement and control over our own borders and space territorial waters etc then watch us build a vibrant prosperous economy as a free and sovereign people the plowden or well the pay will be discussed in bahrain this week and the palestinians aren't going and neither of these release which isn't great considering that this is the palestinian israeli peace deal we're not going to turn this workshop the economic situation should not be discussed before the political one as long as there is no political solution will not deal with an economic solution. what the palestinians need to understand is that the against and get lose in this case you apparently lose most of your country
8:18 am
but they'll make the gas and coast really nice 40 kilometers of pristine beaches millions of tourists with great palestinian coups even oh yeah about losing half your country part under certain circumstances i think israel has the right to retain some but unlikely on of the west bank i get why people think this is going to be a deal that only the israelis could love i understand the perception of that i hope everyone will just give the space to listen and let it settle in a little bit yeah i forgot to mention draft of a plan have leaked and according to them palestinians will be forced to give up 60 percent of the west bank it will be forbidden for palestinians to have an army and they'll have to pay israel for protection for ever and if they refuse to go along the us will sanction them to kingdom come also they still have no idea who pays for
8:19 am
all of this if it's private investors the palestinians will then have to pay them back presumably if so in effect the palestinians have been asked to. told to give up most of their country in exchange for a loan hill of the century more like deal of the millennium if you go by how absolutely one sided and absurd it apparently is all this is. does not show that the us is. fair. mediator between the palestinians and the israelis basically referred to a mr burleson years are not capable of ruling those out this vision violates international resolutions and international law. and denies the palestinians their basic rights and makes it almost impossible for america still impossible that
8:20 am
means that israel would be allowed to continue to control the resources of the palestinians in the west bank in east jerusalem and that means that it's no longer possible to have a saw through viable ready palestinian state. in. the race to become the next conservative party leader and thereby britain's next prime minister is in full swing but it's going to use debate between the 2 remaining candidates could not be cancelled and the reports front runner boris johnson has pulled out and that the ex foreign secretary does get into number 10 his premiership could and the polls found have huge consequences for scotland let's find out what they are now from polly boycott in london johnson and scotland what's the deal there well look at the moment he's trying to be as diplomatic as possible ever since the campaign began take a listen to what he sounded like his most recent debate. talking to ask about. determination
8:21 am
. and what i want to do for the for the country and let me just tell you that when i make a promise in politics about what i'm going to do i keep that promise and i deliver so really boris on his best behavior but he's had to dodge all sorts of questions in relation to bragg's it because his own says leave a lot of wiggle room as to that halloween departure date from the view and also his private life or rao with his much younger girlfriend has been dominating the headlines here and in the midst of all this there are the results of a very interesting poll carried out by panel based in scotland using a sample of over a 1000 scots and that found that overall at the moment in scotland there isn't an appetite for independence there isn't a majority one thing scottish independence it's a narrow margin 49 percent want independence versus 51 percent of scots who want to
8:22 am
stay in the u.k. but crucially that fine balance tips towards scots wanting independence if you add one crucial factor it's blown it's got scruffy has its boris johnson if he is prime minister then 53 percent of scots say that they would want independence for that country while just 47 percent would be against it and this really strengthens the argument of scotland's 1st minister nicolas generally says that having boris as prime minister would strengthen the case for independence this was her answering a journalist's question as to whether boris would make a good prime minister take a listen. no in a word he was a foreign secretary with a risible tanya he didn't display any basic competence seriousness of purpose and not job and i find it actually quite hard to get my head around but knowing
8:23 am
everything we know about him the tours are even contemplating putting him into number 10 bar stunts and really hasn't done himself any favors with scotland really an old opinion column of his when he was a journalist has thrown up some pretty controversial statements this was dating back to 2005 and in relation to gordon brown but take a listen to what he had to say about scots. gordon brown as prime minister would be utterly rageous not just because you don't popping interfering high tax and complicated of life but mainly because he's a scot and government by a scot is just not conceivable in the current constitutional context. what this poll really shows is that even if a johnson win is almost inevitable here and it does feel that way scotland is going to be a thorn in the what now seems to be future prime minister side he's not liked north of the border and judging by this survey if he's in charge the likelihood of
8:24 am
another pressure for scottish independence is much higher power broker bringing us the latest from london thank you. that's the latest tiger update for this hour that you so much for tuning in. thanks guys or financial survival guide. customers go buy your dish to find. good now well reducing our past that's undercutting but what's good for market is not good for the global economy. is hard to take so from somebody if you know have someone replacing. we're going to
