worlds. a warm welcome you're watching r.t. international with me nicky aaron. well more than a year since the u.s. quit the iran nuclear deal president donald trump has said making an agreement with to wrong could be a good thing he also commented on his reasons for sacking his national security adviser john bolton they are a much different country right now than they were 2 and a half years ago when i came into office. and i do believe they'd like to make a deal if they do that it's great and if they don't that's great too he made some very big mistakes when he talked about the libyan model for kim jong il and that was not a good statement to make you just take a look at what happened with gadhafi that was not a good statement to make and it set us back and frankly he wanted to do
8:02 pm
things not necessarily tougher than me you know john's known as a tough guy he's so tough he got us into iraq. for more than a year since the u.s. quits the iran nuclear deal president donald trump has that making an agreement with a round could be a good thing he also commented on his reasons for thanking his national security adviser john bolton. scandals resignations and dismissals are part and parcel of trump's presidency a few policy disagreements a swift tweet from the presidents and another administration official bites the dust it was clear from the outset that trump and his national security advisor would have their disagreements i'm the one that tempers him but that's ok i have different sides i mean i have john bolton and i have other people that are a little more dovish than him and ultimately i make that decision we can speculate on which exact squabble led to bolton's exit the failed talks on afghanistan the question of rush hour or perhaps iran but it seems the animosity lasted until his
8:03 pm
final day in office i offered to resign last night and president trump said let's talk about it tomorrow i informed john bolton last night that his services are no longer needed at the white house i disagreed strongly with many of his suggestions as did others in the administration to trump views himself as a skilled dealmaker who talked tough when needed for bolton but wasn't enough he needed to walk the walk and actively consistently show strength on all fronts the middle east russia north korea latin america you name it he held out on compromising stance on sanctions military action and regime change. bolton was one of the key advocates of toppling the moderate government using any means necessary all options on the table ready to go this troika of tyranny this triangle of chair stretching from havana to caracas to managua is the cause of
8:04 pm
immense human suffering this is a time for action. trump showed he was willing to meet to negotiate with even the greatest perceived us adversities even if it meant just a symbolic photo op the right intentions seems to be their bet it will make it clear that they won't i don't like sanctions because in his country i think they want to make peace i think it's time for bolton though this was unacceptable so it could be a long and unproductive meeting or it could be a short non productive meeting we have very much in mind the libyan model from 20032004 while bolton boiled that north korea had violated u.n. sanctions offer a missile test and may trump downplayed the incident saying he wasn't spooked north korea fired off some small weapons which disturbed some of my people and others but not me. taking on iran was perhaps bolton's priority number one
8:05 pm
within a month of his appointment in april 28th in the u.s. had pulled out of the iran nuclear deal and advocate of preemptive strikes he pushed for military action against iran after a u.s. drone was brought down and as ever his thinly veiled threats centered around regime change we hope that these new measures directed at the arabian dictatorship will compel the government to re-evaluate its pursuit of terror at the expense of its people well i think he is on the verge of making a mistake i think his advisors are pushing him in the wrong direction ironically just as bolton prepared to depart speculation has been rife on possible talks between trump and the iranian president rouhani it would have thought that possible after so much hostile rhetoric perhaps the final straw was trump's plan to wind down the longest war in u.s. history including hosting talks with taliban leaders at camp david it's speculated that bolton this was in comprehensible so what's next for u.s.
8:06 pm
foreign policy will troops words often have little correlation with his actions. and the u.s. secretary of state reassures us not too much will change of leave to the present to talk about the reasons he made the decision but i would say this the president's intitled to the staff that he wants that at any moment this is a staff person who works directly for the president of states and he should have people he trusted values and whose efforts and judgments benefit him in delivering american foreign policy and seems that way though without bolton's presence u.s. foreign policy might have more surprises in store during trumps. there was an interesting reaction to john bolton's departure in the media around online where suddenly appreciation of his actions. whatever you got a boldness foreign policy views he was largely seen as a check on some of the president's most reckless and childlike impulses the lesson
8:07 pm
is if you oppose this president and if you try to give him rational advice and what did he get for it he got a fire to get fired embarrassingly and john bolton has been fiercely critical of putin and north korea for years bolton is trumps and i say never made sense because bolton has never been cozy with those who count americans as the enemy he was a voice that would give alternative realities or real realities to the president for his consideration mr bolton and i didn't agree on a lot of issues but he was a straight shooter john bolton sudden departure is a symbol of the disarray that has a nerve our ally since day one of the trumpet ministration steady leadership and strategic foreign policy east key to ensuring america's national security. today marks
8:08 pm
a senior since the $911.00 terror attacks in the us memorial services are being held across the country and around the world for the thousands killed and injured. despite inquiries and investigations many facts remain unclear with survivors and relatives launching lawsuits against the saudi government claiming it aided some of the most of minds behind the attacks possible legal action also demand the u.s. government discloses names redacted in one of the f.b.i.'s documents on the issue some survivors say the role of saudi arabia has been downplayed at the highest levels they also alleges syria intelligence official contribution to the cover up
8:09 pm
now at the time of the attacks the man in charge of the f.b.i. was robert mueller now of the russia collusion probe same here oversaw the agency's $911.00 investigation and later testified he wasn't aware of any saudi links with more details he is capable. the 911 attacks that shocked the world took place 18 years ago on wednesday the cost in terms of human life was massive in response to 911 the f.b.i. launched a massive investigation and who headed up that investigation robert muller and that's the same robert mueller who recently led the probe into allegations of trumped russia collusion now the media portrayed robert mueller as a relentless crusader he was standing up to trumpet and digging for truth but when it came to investigating foreign influence into 911 he looked a little bit soft riyadh was an obvious target for an investigation into the 911 attacks the possible complicity of saudi arabia was brought up from the beginning osama bin ladin himself
8:10 pm
a saudi as are 15 of the 19 hijackers now saudi arabia of course denies any wrongdoing but now a victim of 911 is speaking up and saying that robert mueller appeared to be covering for saudi arabia in his investigation the saudi arabia was from the very beginning involved through the whole process and they didn't want to see information go wow that's a matter of fact even the obama administration the one. formation to be revealed the wanted to present a. big geopolitical region 1st the. needs of the families and the family members survivors that were directly affected by the event so in the way it was. a way to digest the level of incompetence that we had in the government regarding to the 911 investigation i believe that all up to now we still don't know everything that happened and that the that the f.b.i. agents who did begin to look into saudi arabia actually collected all kinds of data
8:11 pm
but they weren't allowed to share any of it diplomatic and intelligence person know of saudi arabia knowingly provided material support to the 2 hijackers and facilitated the $911.00 plot another former f.b.i. agent says that prince bandar who was. at that point the saudi ambassador should have been a suspect he should be treated as a terrorist suspect as should other members of the saudi elite class who the u.s. government knows are currently funding the global jihad but the f.b.i. didn't question bandar instead $1.00 was assigned to a sport the whole slew of saudi officials and at least one member of the bin laden family on a plane out of the country for new era of the joint terrorism task force says that he was investigating a saudi cleric for his possible role in the $911.00 attacks he says that his warrant for this cleric was cancelled and the cleric also got a special flight out of the country. lucky was a very high value target everybody wanted to wrap him up get him in
8:12 pm
a chair and see what he knew about the money then we got the word that they just wanted to rescind the warrant and everybody's like what do you want to do that for the justice department was afraid to be embarrassed by the entire lucky episode not only did robert mueller seem to have the back of the saudis when it came to his work at the f.b.i. but he also objected to the senate intel committee looking into a possible role in 911 by the saudis as well investigates and michael jacobson came across a stray reference to a bureau informant in san diego who had known one of the hijackers bob graham the former chairman of the senate intelligence committee said that robert mueller made the strongest objections to jacobson and his colleagues visiting san diego 18 years on many americans have lots of questions about 911 what forces could have conspired along with the hijackers and it seems like a lot of these very legitimate questions have not been answered. r.t.
8:13 pm
new york we spoke to a former f.b.i. agent who was active during investigations into 911 she says failures in the process led to policy decisions that have only coolest wolf suffering. had gone through the truth about how the 911 attacks had occurred and how all these failures to share information to even read information if they had done that within a couple of months and i'm sure most of the agents would have told the truth of the the war in iraq for instance would not have been launched there probably would have been no guantanamo no torture no rounding up of innocent people in new york city robert muller did play a role he followed orders and he did not he did not allow it for instance the joint intelligence committee looking into the. the 2 hijackers who were coming to california who were actually staying with an f.b.i. informant he required that he would not allow that f.b.i.
8:14 pm
source to be interviewed robert muller along with condi rice along with the bush administration were saying that they had no advance warning that the 911 attacks would occur and this was of course completely opposite of the truth there were many many intelligence warnings in memos that came from a number of different intelligence agencies. we have approached the f.b.i. over always refused to give us a comment on the story with a sense a request to open the himself we'll bring you his response as soon as we get it. the u.n. has issued a stark warning to benjamin netanyahu of his new plans for the west bank as say as any alex ation would fall outside of all international laws the israeli prime minister has promised to seize large parts of the territory if he wins reelection next week. in the sudan from our hotel we are on the eve of elections president trump said that after the elections he would present he's deal of the century for
8:15 pm
a permanent agreement for israel and the palestinians this offers us a great challenge and a great historic once in a lifetime opportunity to apply israel sovereignty over our settlements in judea and samaria and also other areas with significance for our security our heritage and our future any israeli decision to impose its laws jurisdiction administration in the occupied west bank is without any international legal effect i think such a such a prospect would be devastating to the potential of reviving negotiations regional peace and the very essence of a 2 state solution. of the council is considering this announcement a serious development and a new israeli aggression through its intention to violate international law the un charter and the concerned resolutions of the international legitimacy the area has
8:16 pm
is home to some 3000000 palestinians but increasing numbers of israelis have settled there in recent years with major international organizations labeling it occupied territory and there's concern any with by israel to seize the jordan valley will mock an end to a 2 state solution to the historic conflicts. meanwhile one of netanyahu his challenges in the upcoming election benny gantz who himself is a former i.d.f. chief has suggested palestinians love living under occupation. and the 2nd. you see. unfortunately this is just like the destruction
8:17 pm
of any possibility in the future for any peace with these people it's just remind me of the south african apartheid regime when he was telling the south african people you are living but that african countries people in other countries this is very very racist and that you didn't go just like this this is show us what kind of mentality that we are dealing with in this is from the young to the guts to all this politicians that they are showing as much as they can to get legitimacy how much of the arctic humiliating palestinians how much they are taking part in the palestinians and taking the palestinian conflict getting them eliminating the palestinian identity this is their main issue is that going to the main program in order to be elected by those that i just see. in tel aviv reaction to netanyahu his proposal varies but everyone seems to agree it's designed to woo.
8:18 pm
the statement is stunning maybe he should have done it 10 years ago but better now than not at all well done to him like. west bank our country millions of arabs will bring guests to bring cold demographic disaster so. very very wrong decision to do it it's just another act of prime minister to try and draw some voters from the fire right in the most frequently week or a day before elections is giving most promises about any subject and i don't think he's sincere about it just. trying to speak to his political base i think it was a campaign that was nice perfectly timed to be a week before the election itself. and it doesn't impress me one way or another but there are new developments in the cold case facing a prominent russian there's the director of our story and will after this short
