. 10 o'clock here in moscow and you're watching all the international live from our studio with me in a day or 2 to welcome back to the program as a verbal battle between iran and the u.s. leadership rages to congressman a republican and the democrats have tabled an amendment to block any military strike against iran without the approval of congress the call comes on the same day donald trump posted perhaps his most threatening tweets against iran yet warning he'd obliterate if to iran attacks anything america. this amendment affirms what president knows and believes unfocussed unconstitutional and ending wars in the middle east make america weaker not stronger congress must resort to ensure that any military action is carried out constitutionally and last week we watched president schoen come within minutes of striking iran and evolving the united

states in yet another trillion dollar war in the middle east present trump ending costly wars overseas but given the advisors he chose and his recent risky actions he's not living up to that promise now we have members of congress coming forward one democrat and one republican putting forward an amendment to the national defense authorization act that would not allow for any funding of a u.s. military attack on iran without the approval of congress the bill would prevent the president of united states from taking action against iran unless there was statutory or congressional authorization for him to do so this bill has some pretty widespread support now us president trump was recently interviewed by the hill and in that interview he stated that he did not believe he needed congressional approval in order to take measures and strike against iran this is what trump said in the interview do you believe right now that you have the authority to strike

iran without congress i do i do believe that i like the idea of keeping congress abreast but i wouldn't have to do that this is been a longstanding disagreement if you look at recent u.s. history many military actions by the united states in places such as vietnam or libya have been taken without congressional approval been carried out simply on orders of the president now it's interesting to note that there has been voices criticizing trump for the potential of a new war against iran one voice was that of mowbray looksee is a republican member of congress from alabama and he said that in washington d.c. there seem to be some forces that are pushing for new wars without thinking about the consequences for the military military families and others who are affected by the decisions this is mo brooks. there are a variety of political influences in washington d.c. that love it when we flex american military muscle and they don't seem to care one

whit about our men and women in uniform who are risking their lives and sometimes giving their lives well it is interesting to note that recently the united states did come apparently 10 minutes away from a strike against iran apparently there were 3 locations in iran that were to be hit by a u.s. military strike however trump called off the strike 10 minutes prior to it taking place now that was in response to iran shooting down a u.s. drone now this drone that iran shot down iran says it was in their territorial waters they were defending the territorial integrity of their country however the united states maintains this drone was in international waters and that it was an unprovoked attack all eyes are now on washington d.c. as many voices around the world are deeply concerned about the danger of conflict between the united states and iran has also claimed the iranian leadership conference to its people's problems by spending money on terror and with tension

rising washington seems to fund a group it claims can stop the suffering the choice though may seem quite contradictory senior correspondent mark asked if explains. sometimes i get the impression that trump moves what the iranian people want bed then the uranium people he his government congress talk so much about how the iranian people want these that this is good for them and math bad for them it's almost like they knew each other obviously the people of iran are great people you know i know many of them i. didn't new york have been there very much less to have for years but i know many are a living in new york and they're fantastic people personally i have my doubts about the uranium trump new. being representative of the entire nation but whatever there is one group of irradiance that the white house and friends knew very well could

even say that pounds jad dean hutton or the people's mage of iran will make for sure they've been busy bees lately friday they got together in washington protested leslie calling for regime change and the removal of iran's supreme leader. we've always been saying no more no appeasement but change by the iranians and they've shown that in uprisings that it's what the across iran where they chant just like you hear in the background we want regime change in iran and that's that never mind what moves the rain ians the ones actually in iran think on the matter but i digress american politicians love these guys mek they were almost called all of them you stand for free or rhyme but you stand for democracy you

stand for human rights keep up your fight. those who love and cherish freedom in our country and throughout the world stand with you stand. you're on the right side of history right and in fact the united states has big plans for these mujahedeen great expectations they have destined to rule the declared policy of the united states of america should be the overthrow of the mullahs regime in tehran and that's why the 429 t. we here will celebrate in tehran thank you for. now that introductions are over let me tell you about them a judge dean of iran it hasn't been 10 years since they were moved from america's terror lists still in plenty of others make killed anyone who didn't like shootings

assassinations bombings targeting police iranian officials civilians just for supporting the government americans yeah both in iran and in america and yet since they renounced violence they would taken off these blacklists the department does not overlook or forget the mujahideen had exposed to acts of terrorism including its involvement in the killing of u.s. citizens in iran in the 19 seventies and an attack on the us soil in 1902 the department also has serious concerns about the mujahedeen hynix as an organization particularly with regard to the geishas of abuse committed against its own members oh yeah they don't just target others they target each other to the best traditions of every crazy cult human rights watch says abuses carried out against dissident members range from beatings and imprisonment to torture and threats of execution

according to each r.w. one guy tried to naive the mujahideen would you believe it for this. humus crime he was kept in solitary confinement for 8 years scientologists you've got nothing on these guys aside from maybe influence the recently released documents makers who organize dozens of meetings with us politicians interviews features articles with big media begs the question of course where do they get the money it rain ians on to meeting has almost no support in iran the answer is well they do the odd job according to this alleged leak conversation between mac members released by iran. i did our best to blame the iranian regime for the oil tanker blasts the saudis have called mary image of his office to follow up on the results to get a conclusion of what has been done and the possible consequences look at it this

way whoever is financing them isn't doing it because they're nice they aren't you know the saying the enemy of my enemy is my friend even if he's a murderous crazy cultist apparently unfortunately united states seems to be a very fine look for using terrorists i mean they meet to using terrorist this is a very very dangerous group not because it has any hope of ever being in the run and ruling there but the very dangerous because they were called the oldest they do not understand at 1st in human rights and they're terrorists there is no way that they can replace any government in iraq and that i can. bet on it it's not going to happen i don't think america plans it but then america would like to tell them that it's so that they would continue their activities not because they have been able to we know with the iranians to their side.

the german government has lost track of around 160 islamic state sympathizers who left the country to fight for the territory as many as a 1000 left germany raising fears they could return and recognized our europe correspondent peter as the details. the best estimate suggests at least a 1000 people left germany to go and join an isis and following a question from a member of the bundestag to the interior ministry it's been revealed that in 160 cases those identified as extremists have disappeared without a trace occasionally such individuals could have succeeded in escaping and all disappearing in an attempt to alleviate fears of isis terrorists living among german society the federal government has said that they are convinced that it would be extremely unlikely that anyone who had traveled to join isis would be able

to come back to germany and live or noticed however the m.p. that 1st raised concerns says she's not convinced considering the surest fragmented protection of the ease external borders it is particularly worrying that the federal government has a pattern take a no further measures to prevent the uncontrolled reentry of isis militants 2 thirds of those who have left the country have german citizenship this presents another issue what to do with those who want to return to germany in the case of isis supporter. he's currently being held in a kurdish jail his lawyers are suing the german government they say has a responsibility to bring him home from our point of view the federal government is constitutionally obliged to bring fabien back to germany it has not fulfilled this obligation for political reasons the lawyers maintain that there is a german constitutional obligation for the government to protect the fundamental rights of their citizens even when they are held in foreign nations and his younger

brother who's location isn't known traveled from the central german city of castle to syria to join isis in 2014 their father says he was assured that would be released if berlijn requested it however he believes the germans turning a blind eye to the sea. the german government would prefer it if my children on the other islamist would just disappear forever here's the thing it isn't that easy for the german government to intervene even if they wanted to and there is no indication that they really do germany currently has no diplomatic relations with syria and the federal government here doesn't recognize the kurdish y p g group who is holding. hard in the case of the at least 160 people who travelled from germany to join isis and remain unaccounted for or berlin doesn't know whether they are alive or dead whether they remain in the middle east or whether they've

come back here and if they've come back here whether they pose any potential threat to society the german government and the security of the secret service intelligence services seem to know exactly how many people left germany to go to syria and to iraq and to fight with one of those armed groups and suddenly they say now we lost track of them germany seems to have been sleeping officially they didn't say a lot about this and certainly they have no real policy about this this is why nothing is happening now and that discussion is being put forward through the media or through the facts on the ground they will be forced to do one thing or the other eventually and our society is not really aware and cannot really imagine what these people are might be up to we need a public discussion about this without stigmatizing without being a racist or islamist for big but the german society and the politicians have to be more realistic about the threats. and change an earring in of earth is going to

offer its academic positions exclusively to women men will only be offered a job if no suitable female candidates are found the irene curie fellowship program will give a female employee a starting package of 100000 euro to spend on their own research and is expected to recruit more than 100 women in the coming years universities rector believes it suffers from a gender bias. we attach great importance to equal respect and opportunities for women and men we are aware that we're suffering from an implicit gender bias we're now using the fact that plans to expand our academic stuff considerably in the coming years can be used as a means to make a big step forward in one fell swoop we discussed the move with gas political activist kate smith weight and media commentator. inequality it's a self like reciprocating process inequality inequality breeds inequality because

if young women don't see women in positions of power doing the jobs that they might want to do it slows their progress through without women at the top it's harder for women to break through so they're just taking this opportunity when it comes to discriminating specifically against men that's one problem i have with this but secondly and i think perhaps even even more more imperative is the fact that from this point on if they woman has a high powered job at that particular institution everyone's going to know that she had special advantages to get there honestly right now when i see men in positions of power i think most of them are only there because the system is totally set up to favor men i don't look around even you know the government big companies working with around the world when i see their they're their board of directors and it's white guys white guys white guys white guys i don't think i bet those are the 10 guys best qualified to run this company as a woman in

a male dominated field who has managed to do ok despite discrimination that i've definitely incurred as many women have i would still rather i would still rather fight and win then have a participation trophy which is what this is tantamount to yeah you know you've got you've done great but maybe you deserve to do brilliantly maybe you deserve an even better job than the one you've got maybe you deserve a better salary than the one you've got i think when i look around there are lots of women i know who have overcome obstacles but i don't feel like you know they've overcome obstacles but have they really really. their full full potential no you would have gone much further if you hadn't had to spend so much time and energy overcoming these obstacles but but i don't think that we do any groups anything in playing identity politics especially where we're shutting down an entire group of people just to give something to another group of people i think it sends a message that those people somehow weren't competent or nothing could earn it and i think that's very dangerous for women i think it's very dangerous if you're talking about you know hiring a doctor for

a hospital i don't want to go to hospital and and look around and not be a doctor but this is an academic institution and much as i love reading scientific research papers i've never woken up in the morning i must have 600 milligrams of scientific research paper or i'm going to die this is not the kind of job which cannot possibly be left open for 6 months in fact it's very very common that these kind of academic positions are left open for a lot much longer than that but k k what if what if the research they're doing is for example on cancer or something and it's it's now postponed for 6 months how many people are going to die because that research didn't get out there in time because we were all obsessed with making sure once the special group was equally represented i say let the best people are not hold on a minute let me answer that let's have the positions and i believe that women will be equally represented in that group because i think women are perfectly competent to get there we know when it comes to academic research that it's really really important to have a wide base of people doing that research and there are lots of instances actually in the past where we've seen research being done by almost all groups and when we

look at the research when it's published we realize that it's not as widely a political as it could be because it's failed to take into account female viewpoints and female experiences so you know how many lives are being lost because research into all sorts of aspects of human life is being undertaken. really slammed by u.s. lawmakers for adopting artificial intelligence and so-called persuasive techniques to influence what you. see on the. after this break.

what politicians do you should. put themselves on the line. they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to express interest. some want to be rich. but you'd like to be this is what the folks really think you get. interested always at the water's edge. they should.

welcome back to the program google and its parent company alpha bad under fire from lawmakers in the u.s. congressmen have a criticize the so what they say a persuasive techniques and the use of all to fish the intelligence to settle that content do you say google doesn't use persuasive technology that is cracked dark caverns and persuasive technology is not core to how we design our products that google which are built around transparency are you talking about huge over the whole family of companies the whole family of companies including you tube you don't want to clarify that a little further. we build our products with privacy security and control for the users that is what we've been. and ultimately this builds a life long relationship with the user which is primary that's are trying to know what any of that. the main concerns voiced during the hearing were about the spread of fake news and conspiracy theories online but more accusations are flying in the

direction of the search engine investigative group project veritas released a probe claiming google is politically motivated unbiased the video was posted on you tube it was quickly blocked it includes an interview with a whistleblower and secretly filmed conversation with a company except. for in this this is. crucial so it gives. them so they have to buy this through all the rhythms so they can or they can get their job of course if they were to say that it's a great look. like let her see a theory i did like the letter make a will the slaughter of the police or the reader would be charged with the same techniques. such as.

the google executive film by project veritas claims the video is nonsense she says she has no connection to the projects discussed although she admits she did use imprecise language we spoke to benoit come mark a senior lecturer at the melbourne university of technology who believes algorithms have made more influential than whole states. google has and this is the great paradox of the system as a company it's bows its transparency to information but of course the reality is we do not know. the nature of how its algorithms function in the open sense it's not entirely transparent with us because of course in a certain level of google social incidence grace in many ways than states governments themselves and that's rather dangerous if you believe in the notions of the and accountable of accountable public institutions and so forth that is the nature of information management it tends to produce interests of a specific type and that's what tends to through its algorithm system employ.

apple is accused of helping to spread radical islam by continuing to host an app for muslims called euro front war despite calls for it to be banned from anti semitism groups in germany to mastic security agency agreeing the app is dangerous it's still available online among other things the controversial mobile phone app says a woman is required to ask permission from a man even to cut her hair in once quite a derogatory of references to jews but they were later deleted overall it claimed european laws can be ignored if they go against the religious rules of the app has already been removed from google store but apple doesn't see the problem. guidelines require that don't contain upsets in offensive content we reviewed the up and did not find a violation of our guidelines another point of criticism is the man behind the app use of out here is the founder of the rippin council for research he's known for

praising suicide bombings against israeli calling it the highest form of jihad he's seen as an unofficial leader of the muslim brotherhood a group this considered by some countries as a terrorist organization in the past has been banned from entering britain france and the united states. the u.k. will not turn every depressants of those who seek to justify acts of terrorist violence or disburse fuse that could foster into community violence i indicated to the move good time him so that this person was not welcome on the torah dri of the french republic he will not come from the head of u.k. counterterrorism security office chris phillips believes the flatware up could affect the integration of muslims in europe in a negative way. apple study in my experience 3. asked a lot of questions when they're setting up typically where it's around this kind of subject the job that they use if that's not understood by those app developers

those people that are actually also realizing this to go online and of course there's all sorts of dangers now you know you could have terrorists actually passing information by these and i was supposed to let it through i don't think this sort of stuff actually aids integration it does really push the differential between muslims and the rest of society they have their own means and their own legislation as they would say the sharia law which should not be fond of the laws of our country the european countries and any other computers that muslims choose to live in that the law of land is the same for everyone. and i'll be back in around 30 minutes time. to stay with us.
