6:02 am
rather than promoted we're taking steps to address this including the u.s. pilot program where some of the people who review content on facebook only focus on hate speech instead of a range of content that can include bullying nudity and misrepresentation and it's not just those hateful nasty comments they're going to protect us from in addition as we have the 2020 us presidential election and the upcoming federal us census approaching they will protect us from inappropriate comments about them so you think the vote is rigged against say bernie sanders like it wasn't 2016 well facebook says you best keep that analysis to yourself to protect elections we have a team across product engineering data science policy legal and operations dedicated full time to these efforts they're already working to burn ads that discourage people from voting and we expect a phone line as the new policy and its enforcement before the 20000000 teen gubernatorial elections and it's not just facebook that's concerned about what we

6:04 am
additional context and clarity will also take steps to make sure the tweet is not algorithmically elevated on our service now of course twitter did not mention any particular president but mainstream us media has read between the lines and they are overjoyed jack dorsey lays the groundwork to finally some for trump but will executives that ever pull the trigger on twitter won't sense the trumps rude breaking tweets but who will make them harder to find is the fix to one of twitter's most delicate problems trump tweets have gotten so bad that twitter to my stunt giving the morning labels so in the lead up to a us presidential election we've got gigantic tech monopolies basically announcing that they will be deciding for us what we are and are not allowed to hear and read and why well they've got to protect us from election meddling after all and make sure we choose to vote in the right way caleb mopp and r.t.

painted evil regardless of whether or not they have any history of engaging in far right violence and if the left can deal with you physically they will discriminate against you as happened to white house press secretary sarah sanders last year when she was refused service at a restaurant they will publicly ostracize you like when eric trump was harassed one eating out the left will even track you down and come knocking on your door. used. the left is on a search and destroy mission and progressive outlets will give plenty of outrage to announce the new rules when the goal justifies or means so when the day

employ firelands to meditation and harassment on a mass scale a lot of cases using social media. so that they believe that there is just like if you call everyone a nazi then no one is a nazi or no one is or isn't is a genuinely legacy's force that she makes it more likely thought erks forces like fascists to rise and challenged the left isn't forcing a new order and by the new rules the gloves are off when dealing with dissidents. the british home office has sparked outrage after suggesting that nigerian women who are trafficked to the u.k. to work as prostitutes can enjoy a wealthy life when they return to africa china dubinsky now looks at what prompted the statement. it's been described as at crisis level the number of nigerian women trafficked into prostitution across europe thousands of women and girls every year

forced into the sex trade often in a bid to pay off the debt that they think could in been transported to the continent according to the new when these women are sexually exploited they're raped. they are subject to all forms of human rights violations including torture rape extortion forced labor sexual and labor exploitation amounting to trafficking and contemporary forms of slavery people there were turned home there is also the risk of violent prize or the un has described that we have billet taishan in full social inclusion of trafficked persons back in nigeria as being particularly challenging however the u.k. government appears to be painting a very different picture one that's crazy trafficked women who return from europe wealthy from prostitution enjoy high social economic status and in general
6:11 am
are not subject to negative social attitudes on return they are often held in high regard because they have improved income prospects this is part of an official policy and information it's used by the home office decision makers who handle any protection and human rights claims that includes trafficked women who may be seeking asylum that's sparked outrage the issues are faced by the thousands of people who are trafficked from my injury to the u.k. if one of destitution they are bought by traffickers to have a copy of their free will and imply that on the return back home they'll be welcomed back with open arms and community here for the hardworking people it is difficult to return back there are cultural stigmas behind them or what of the few people. a minder a software mover itself a society in which religion plays a big part of it and you put aside by your family or you because even the community

also starred in them for the for the negative aspects of africa fighting i mean which the home office doesn't seem to for the understand there is also a huge issue for those who do return to nigeria and getting access to the support that they desperately need for the 2 percent of people who are trafficked to europe from nigeria with i'm 50 to 500 of them actually faithful to the confession of fault from their p.t.s.d. . or mental health issues all the time but me the local authority from the government itself and do not have the required for the teach to teach help for ingrained issues within the population to have these issues it's not the 1st time the home office has found itself questions sized over the way that it deals with victims of trafficking lawyers have accused of showing disregard for this safety after it emerged victims were being released from immigration detention back to the addresses where they were enslaved in 2018 it also emerged that under the hostile
6:13 am
environment policy victims of modern slavery and human trafficking had been jailed in breach of legislation while others had been deported in a statement the home office said victims of modern slavery shouldn't be prosecuted for criminal fastest they were forced to commit as a result of exploitation just months after backing a campaign urging nigerian women and girls to find jobs at home instead of risking a life of modern slavery in the u.k. some might argue that this latest advice that prostitution can essentially equal wealth could actually encourage more women and girls from nigeria to try their own luck and risk their own lives. r.t. london. in other news to me and other news around has broken out between germany and italy after the captain of
6:14 am
a german rescue ship was arrested after docking in sicily with a boat full of migrants italian interior interior minister matter yourself vini branded the skipper's decision to head to an italian port without permission an act of war from justice or expect severe penalties for those who have made an attempt on the life of italian soldiers and repeatedly ignored laws from the other european countries germany and france above all expect silence and respect we are however ready to expel the german outlaw the captain corona rocket has her supporters in germany hundreds in fact marched in munich during her arrest unfair and disproportionate foreign minister hike in mass also weighed in calling her treatment unacceptable. is evil to rescue it says not to groom all of fern's it is unacceptable to us that what happened and what we consider to have been humanitarian act is criminal why is it the 31 year old was arrested on saturday
6:15 am
after she talked with 42 migrants on board rockette allegedly steered the vessel in the direction of a government boat that did try to block her from entering the port she apologized explaining her decision is being motivated by fear for the migrants health she could now face up to 10 years in jail the german public has already raised more than a 1000000 euros to cover her legal costs while a similar talian campaign has raised another $400000.00 but italians and germans do seem divided over the skipper's actions. we think that people should be saved anyway but the history of europe has been it based on migration for centuries and centuries and centuries well and significant men who try and stop these things wouldn't ever come between not i wouldn't call it an act of war i imagine that if there was war here and if i were fleeting and desperate for help and then they rejected me that would be so terrible. and i mean that i think she degree thing
6:16 am
by the italian laws shouldn't have broken the law and i'm sorry for the 42 lives but i think she needs to leave italy like salvini says because we are already full of immigrants i think germany is a great thing helping growing but the immigrants could also go to germany i still to come this hour donald trump has said that he wants to pull more troops of u.s. troops from afghanistan but will leave enough behind for strong intelligence we'll have it about story just off the break. you know world of big partisan movies a lot of things and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter
6:17 am
we need to stop slamming the door on the back and 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 we're watching closely watching the hawks. would call make this manufactured to send it to the public well. when the ruling classes protect themselves. the merry go round be the one. doing all middle of the room.
6:18 am
welcome back now donald trump has lashed out at iran after it exceeded the amount of low enriched uranium it is allowed to stockpile under the 2015 nuclear deal monitored upbeat as i have been informed iran has crossed the 300 kilogram limit based on his earlier we had announced our plan to exceed the limit therefore based on our previous announcement we made it clear what we were going to do we see it as a right based on the disappear way. they know what to do and they go with the airplane when i think they're playing with fire the trumpet ministration has vowed to apply maximum pressure on iran over its nuclear ambitions it's also suggested too that iran was already producing high amounts of enrich uranium before the deal was signed the iranian foreign minister did respond with a simple tweet see that the one word question seriously he also said that the latest enrichment was justified by the fact that america pulled out of the nuclear
6:19 am
deal the un watchdog nuclear watchdog has since confirmed that iran has breached its limit under the agreement it's the latest twist in iran's long running difficulties with the west. iran's done with dialogue at least it seems when it comes to washington. the useless sanctions imposed by the disparate us government on iran's supreme leader and foreign minister has the effect of blocking the path to diplomacy for years iran has attempted to rebuild relations with the u.s. without any tangible results in 1988 u.s. military shut down iranian passenger plane that killed 290 civilians including 66 children and although the incident was considered an accident the pentagon never apologize if. i believe that given the operating environment captain rogers acted reasonably and did what his nation expected of him this regrettable accident and it was an accident it was
6:20 am
a byproduct of the iran iraq war and saddened all american and if past presidents are anything to go by to rand shouldn't hold its breath i'll never apologize for the united states of america ever i don't care what the facts are still ready to reconcile iran helped organize the release of u.s. hostages in lebanon but this goodwill gesture wasn't reciprocated by 995 even harsher u.s. sanctions were being lined up for iran i am formally announcing my intention to cut off all trade and investment with iran the 2nd round of reproach men came shortly after 911 i was one of the 1st of all the need to condemn these body and. as a human as a muslim and as an iranian i stand before you to boss again express my deepest sympathies we need to families of the victims and be to all the
6:21 am
great american people across iran candlelight vigils were held to mourn the victims but the diplomatic progress didn't last long 4 months later they came. president bush's axis of evil speech which included iran this is a regime that has something to hide from the civilized world. states like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil. finally in 2015 iran signed a deal with the international community including the us agreeing not to pursue nuclear weapons the united states together or international partners has achieved something that decades of animosity has not a comprehensive long term deal with iran that will prevent it from obtaining a nuclear weapon it was celebrated but short lived dubbed a bad deal by donald trump he walked away without any confirmation to iran was in
6:22 am
violation so perhaps it's no great surprise iran is tired of talking you know out of the states does not seem to be very much willing to talk to tehran otherwise they would have kept the nuclear deal and built up on that at least they could have given to try but they've not done that they have rule in their former deal and this shows their be reimposed sanctions to the harshest level possible this shows that they are after iran so run that if the united states removes the sanctions gets back to the nuclear deal to show that it shows the respect towards the action that case could be different until then there couldn't be any kind of talks with the u.s. no matter who is in office. donald trump has said that he would like to withdraw all u.s. troops from afghanistan leaving only enough to deliver what strong intelligence.
6:23 am
i would like to just get out the problem is it just seems to be a lab for terrorists or seems to i call it the harvard of terrorists i would believe very strong intelligence there you have to watch the raw currently around $9000.00 u.s. troops in afghanistan over the last 18 years that the u.s. has lost thousands of personnel and nearly a trillion dollars earlier my colleague spoke to the author of the conflicts roger hill who argues that the rules of engagement should be changed. the rules of engagements are outdated and when i say rules of engagement i mean the law of war the law of armed conflict don't necessarily account for an enemy force that doesn't reciprocate them the geneva conventions concerning how we fight and in the in how we conduct ourselves and warfare are written under the idea that the enemy will
6:24 am
reciprocate how we fight and how we conduct ourselves in combat and the enemy does in fact reciprocate then fine that's that's one thing altogether but however we're fighting in a situation that's unprecedented for example with isis and the enemy. does not fight according to those conventions and so we're trying to force an undue burden on our military service members to conduct themselves when there is such a deficit or disparity between how they fight and the enemy's forces are fighting for you and finds the u.s. and allies in afghanistan responsible for most of 1000000000 deaths in the 1st 3 months of this year then the taliban and isis together. even you will call to further relax plans are going to vote against enemy combatants highly irresponsible i think the idea the ideal behind why we're overseas in iraq and afghanistan is what needs to be questioned i think a lot of times we get fixated on individual instances of civilian casualties and
6:25 am
persecuting military service members for the collateral that's created however the type of fight that we've been forced to engage and there is a large possibility or risk for inevitable collateral to include civilian casualties so you can't place an undue burden on the service members on the ground when that collateral is created and if you do then the people that you need to bring alongside them when you do prosecute them needs to be the politicians in the senior military that sent them over there to begin with is that how you'll book you don't company it was redacted i can you tell us how and why yes so the pentagon has an office of security review. and they claim on their website that they can turn a manuscript around in 2 months and that is to review it for sensitive material and then get back to the authors with their recommendations on what material should be removed or changed they kept da company for
6:26 am
a year and the content that they redacted 95 percent of it according to the experts that we hired to review the manuscript outside of the pentagon was actually on federally sponsored websites that's us going to government federally sponsored about sites and that brings you up to date or not say that things are looking back again with more news to me and 35. as we speak large organized caravans are on the march to the united.
6:27 am
player coming up and again. this is a virtual invasion of our country. and i thought i meant yeah i know we're not going to. you know it's going to say this. is you know do is you know we're going to see a more. noticed. that. the . magic mushrooms seized down some contexts used in the wrong way carry carry potential arms like any any psychoactive substances. but used in the right way they seem to
