8:02 am
1968 of course is not the 1st time that president macklin has invited to this force it's his holiday retreat and he did of course invite to reserve may the former u.k. prime minister. last see in 2018 but this will be the 1st tete a tete he's had with president putin at that for what well many are saying the timing of this meeting between the 2 presidents is very significant why is that well of course it's just a few days before the g 7 nation leaders will be meeting in relatively nearby to be discussing global issues and many are saying that this could be the kick start that's needed to improve and reignite relations between russia and the e.u. so what's on the agenda today between corn and putin well of course the bilateral relationships with the e.u. and here of course in france but then also be discussing the syrian conflict ukraine and perhaps most importantly one of the most divisive issues all of the
8:03 am
modern day is iran and that's because of course president mccollum president trump are likely to be discussing that when they meet at the g. 7 meeting later on this week at those 2 of course the old best of buddies and now on the 2 different sides all of the divide when it comes to the reining in nuclear deal so a very important issue and it will be important for president michel and the russian president putin to discuss that and to see where they meet the right on that issue now among putin will be looking in this meeting to perhaps develop a deeper relationship between the 2 they 1st met back in 2070 not long after president macron was elected here in france they met in paris at the palace and that meeting got off to a bit of a shaky start but since then she you have met on many occasions deepening their relationship weakening our understanding of each other in fact in 2008 they met 5
8:04 am
times this meeting will be the 2nd meeting in 2019 we know that the 2 have forged a better relationship. over the past 2 years and we know the president michael and he's already agreed to attend the victory day parade in moscow in russia next year for the 75th anniversary very significant event and showing that the 2 are looking to increase their chemistry and to forge the deeper relationship between the 2 countries and hopefully improve that relationship between russia and the e.u. . ok heading stateside know donald trump has launched another scathing attack on the new york times accusing the publication of producing some of the worst journalism in history the latest outburst came after leaked or you emerged of the paper's executive editor discussing how to cover the president and his
8:05 am
administration now that russia gate is essentially over. the story. frump is the russian acid this message of the not too carefully ciphered in articles and reports has been overwhelming americans and the new york times seemingly used all the power and authority of its award winning journalism to propagate the message. but then came the miller report something that was until supported to become the fatal blow to donald trump's credibility rebound ricocheted and had the media back with the momentum of a boomerang for the new york times it meant this we built our newsroom to cover one
8:06 am
story and we did it truly well now we have to regroup and shift resources in emphasis to take on a different story this is part of a league transcript from dean baquet the new york times executive editor giving a speech in front of the paper's authors this shift he's talking about is far from good news for trump because apparently now the newspaper is going to degrade him from a russian puppet to something arguably much worse a racist. race in the next year is going to be a huge part of the american story and i mean race in terms of not only african-americans and their relationship with donald trump but latino asian immigration work to the near times for 15 years i think that the new york times has immensely damaged its credibility by trumpeting this narrative that trump was a russian agent certainly within the last few decades one of the most egregious
8:07 am
journalistic failures a terrible terrible failing and. i find it disturbing that dean baquet the executive editor of the new york times what will even acknowledge it mr kay also likes to put the new york times on a pedestal for being one of the few remaining independent journalism sources out there except to believe that you have to deliberately ignore the distinctive scent of partisanship reeking from the paper's supposed new racism narrative donald trump publicly and unapologetically embraced a political strategy may hate racism and division he's a man who cosies out to the white supremacist has been about trying to divide us in a way that it's been about trying to sell hate and division among us we have a president of the united states is a racist this is a guy who is worse than
8:08 am
a racist he is actually using racist tropes and racial language for political gain the newspaper might have begun to retroactively implement the changes since it recently changed the headline of one of its articles from this to this under the pressure from well the democrats so one thing is for sure race will be a huge part of the american story next year the presidential one what happened. the moeller report did not deliver as the new york times and much of the other mainstream media promised that it would and from that transcript you see that they are going to pivot to another kind of campaign against trump which will be focusing on is racism but none of this is is journalism and some is a kind of switching of one moral crusade or self defined moral crusade with another
8:09 am
their coverage of the russia gate of the russian collusion story was a huge flop and during that story critics accuse them of ignoring other things that trump was doing so now after russia after the russia collusion story has for off the times has decided to cover other issues like trump and racism but believe me they'll do a very bad job. they'll get a lot of basic things wrong and and probably benefits rather more than they will hurt you well the new york times has not reacted to the release of the audio recording or responded to a request for comment from marty. well let's delve a little further into the issue of racial division in the u.s. alleged f.b.i. documents have emerged detailing how the agency intends to tackle rising levels of hate crime kill up and scalp the story. there are many different threats that are
8:10 am
being faced by america's men and women of the f.b.i. this point its mass shootings and terrorist attacks that tend to grab the headlines but they are facing another top priority that would be racial violent crime racially motivated violent extremism in compass is threats involving the use or threat of force or violence in violation of federal law in furtherance of political or social agendas which are deemed to derive from bias often related to race held by the actor against others including a given population group now let's be clear this is not some kind of political statement by the f.b.i. it's actually based on the data that they have collected what they refer to as white identity extremists and black identity extremists are committing crimes in a rising numbers here's what they said about some racially motivated violent extremists are driven by a belief in the superiority of the white race and a perception that the u.s. government is conspiring with jews and other minority populations to bring about
8:11 am
the races demise although racially motivated violent extremists use force or violence in violation of criminal law in response to perceived racism and injustice in american society or in an effort to establish a separate black homeland or autonomous black social institutions communities or governing organizations within the us it's true that racially motivated violent crimes have been increasing across the united states since 2015 this trend has continued in 2019 even though the overall crime rate in the city is surveyed has declined.
8:12 am
in the beginning. of. the attack in el paso texas underscores the continued threat posed by domestic violent extremists and perpetrators of hate crimes we're talking about a wide spectrum of racially motivated incidents and yes white nationalism has no place in this country i could tell you the majority of people in this
8:13 am
country from all walks of life all ethnicities and religions condemn white nationalism so the f.b.i. see somewhat of a spike if you will a growth if you will and people being radicalized through white nationalism but it is being addressed rather vigorously by the f.b.i. and other intelligence agencies but we have to be careful in this country to make sure that the f.b.i. and other intelligence agencies do not become politicized unfortunately because of the political atmosphere we now see in the united states there has been the politicization of the f.b.i. . and presently the new u.s. attorney general mr barr is addressing that as we speak. ok to know the story generating a lot of interest this week out of the house condemned by the british government to strip a former islamic state fighter of his citizenship accusing its ally off shrinking
8:14 am
its responsibilities pulis lior has the details. well the u.k. has stripped form of fighter jet lifts who has been dubbed by the media as jihadi jack of his british citizenship but not canada has criticized this they say that they're disappointed in the decision don't forget that this jack let's also has canadian citizenship and a statement has been released by the canadian ministry of public safety terrorism knows no borders so countries need to work together to keep each other safe. disappointed that the united kingdom has taken this unilateral action to offload their responsibilities let's trucked out of university after converting to islam and moving to syria back in 2014 he participated in a number of battles before being taken hostage by could forces in june 2016 he gave an interview in which he said that his move to the middle east was part of
8:15 am
a search for the truth and he denied having ever been involved in islamic state it's a controversial move by the united kingdom that whenever it finds that its citizens are accused of being involved in some kind of terrorism it needs to strip them of the citizenship it was another case recently of begum who also went to live in syria under islamic state now according to international law no country can strip of posts and of their nationality if it leaves them homeless as it does in the case of begum lawyers representing her family have actually written to the home secretary and accused british authorities are failing to protect the teenager from being sucked in and being groomed by islamic state the u.k. has a long tradition of stripping its nationals of citizenship as a means of preventing them from returning to britain after they become accused of
8:16 am
being involved in terrorist activities european human rights judges have also ruled that this is illegal and if the. we see at the moment is hundreds of foreign nationals who joined islamic state moved across to syria and iraq to fight in their ranks who are now being stripped of their nationality and being prevented from returning home. american mother living in saudi arabia is set to lose custody of her 4 year old daughter after being told by a court her lifestyle is too western it's after her ex-husband a saudi national presented evidence to a court known to embrace this law make values and therefore wouldn't be able to raise their child zena properly bethany who's 32 moved to saudi arabia in 2011 to work as a university teacher she later married a saudi businessman with whom she held her daughter the couple then divorced last
8:17 am
year and things started getting more complicated with the air accusing him of verbal abuse and drug use a claim he denies the saudi court ruled against her the deadline for appeal expired on sunday. the mother is new to islam is a foreigner in this country and continues to definitively embrace the customs and traditions of her upbringing we must avoid exposing zarina to these customs and traditions especially at this early age we spoke to catherine shutdown katherines a senior analyst at the alibi and think tank she explained to us why the case was lost by the american mother in her view. women to begin a it in the kingdom do not have many rights just because and of course when it comes to custody cases it is very often the husband has priority and is given everything whereas the woman is giving nothing and i think that in this case they are just using her nationality and the flag she was raised in the west against her
8:18 am
8:19 am
it's very difficult to say you know whether the prince is actually really genuine in his desire for we fools because they all coming so clearly. or whether he's just some kind of a quick threat to claim to tried to you know it's richard riley or rollins public opinion you know in his favor as it was to truly trying to change what is going on in his society and we have to admit and this is not even an opinion it's a fact that saudi arabia is running centuries behind everybody else when he calls to formulating what society is and how people relate to one another and the dynamics that goes on in the kingdom women. because to get about 50 percent of society you cannot function as a state if you deny an awful group of creation the right to be to believe or even to choose for themselves. with warnings intensifying pretty much of the daily basis it seems about the possibility of a global climate catastrophe germany's green party really has been enjoying
8:20 am
a surge in support among its environmental policies is a plan to completely phase i domestic flights by overhauling the country's real system but are most germans on board peter all over texas those are the. germany's green policies being in full bloom in the polls of late one of the most recent policies they put forward is a railway revolution all trains on a tight schedule moving at a cheaper price waste that so why fight it with the ultimate aim of making the internal flights in germany i think of the past in the next 50 years by trying to city 5 who want to make domestic flights largely obsolete with all of that said to cost the states around $3000000000.00 euro a year but the rail passengers think of the proposal i definitely would support the policy i think i draw to take the plane more often at the train's 3 than the plane
8:21 am
yeah if that whole network would have to be in a better condition going by train is really expensive and it's not very complicated if you're doing a lot of traveling like me it's nearly impossible to prove all the wrong to germany on the big 3 so. the moment there's no alternative fuel for things because of his suv i'm not a frequent flyer but in that case i would abstain from flying altogether. my last minute ticket from munich cost me 50 euro if i put in advance it would have been cheap but if i booked for it to that sounds it would have been a fraction of that cost everybody wants to see travel be quick and cheap bring them however how much of this plan is achievable and how much of it is just a headline. this would be a long way to go because it requires us investments in infrastructure
8:22 am
and so far germany is struggling since years to complete right away in a structure projects took $21.00 which was supposed to make flights obsolete in the south of germany by allowing for fall. to rain kind of train connections between paris and the end of. the broadsheet the steel agent has become twice as costly as a plant and so yes i ask myself how is it going to be put into practice. here we are in munich now that journey took just short of 5 hours under the proposed plans all journeys would have to be completed within 4 and it's not just by lowering train phase that the hoping to get people to the plane and take the train it's also by raising aspen is part of the plan is to put taxation on kerosene jet fuel on a level with taxation on petrol at $65.00 euro cents
8:23 am
a liter currently depending on the length of the flight passengers will pay up to around 40 euro in taxes according to calculations from the german environment ministry increasing kerosene taxes could raise as much as 7000000000 euro are new really here at the may want ports in munich we found a real mixed bag of opinions when it came to getting people off planes and on to trains. it takes longer so i wouldn't want to say i was for so much that several hours i think it should be wise verse that should be better to invest in the infrastructure of the trains etc cycles more reliability better prices not going to take the train to bed linwood going now. 10 hours pay like yeah the same of going to kill is he going kerosene into consideration i think trains are better but not in terms of speed. but when the trains don't go away you
8:24 am
need to the only option available is the cost germany has the highest level of call rhona ship in the european union and the germans love affair with the automobile certainly not going away anytime soon peter all of a. the move ok i reminder for all of the latest stories this monday our twitter page you covered plenty to see there are well worth. joining me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics. i'm showbusiness.
8:25 am
in this community there are people who believe that it's ok. it's really hard there are no jobs and you see the kids that ask and as a parent. are given there's a lot of conflict in the game between the 2 most of the conflict i would say. has made. us want to know each other. each other is good because the state of california makes 6000000000 dollars in prison complexes you get some 25 where. you don't care. anything.
8:27 am
