listen. to him. monday morning moscow time headlining right now. following. the weekend for the us pointing the finger at iran. as a. separatist leader awaits trial in the decades old murder case we have from his wife. madsen any human being locked up in a cage fight by 7 people with an open. and universities in california might have to supply students with abortion pills if a controversial new bill is signed off. educate these college students heading to hell it's not the answer here are we going to say to a woman you know what you had a chance to get it education to create

a better life for yourself but you're completely ruined that. this is also international law. in moscow my name is kevin i mean there's a 30 minute for you 1st of all prices have spiked following the attacks over the weekend on saudi arabia's oil infrastructure moving at levels not seen since the invasion of kuwait back in 1990 the united states claims iran is responsible for the sort of the attacks on the state run refineries surrounded now is the allegations in accuses the us of deceit in your reports on the latest for you today . it's not even been a week since the famous most stosh was shaved off the face of america's foreign policy if you know what i mean but even without mr bolton someone else who is actually in charge of diplomacy has tweeted the u.s. will join efforts with allies to ensure iran is held accountable for its aggression

and there's plenty of other hawks to explain how not supposed to be done it is now time for the united states to put on the table an attack on iranian oil refineries if they continue their provocations were increased nuclear enrichment so this sound of the drums of war is back because oil refineries in saudi arabia went up in flames now after a hit see this island right here that is the kingdom of bahrain as seen from space the fire was so huge that the black of the smoke was almost just as big as you can see right there but who said it was to iran the u.s. state department even though boss might compare didn't explain how they knew the rain ians did it i'll tell you what the who the rebels who are fighting a civil war in yemen even said it was us but for washington that's just a smokescreen. amid all the cools for deescalation iran has now launched an

unprecedented attack on the world's energy supply the damages indeed men's if you look at it from one side the world's biggest black gold producer says the strike cut its crude old supply by around a half donald trump quickly called the saudi crown prince to offer him full support but we know just how much oil and how much cash saudi arabia has riyadh has already called its buyers telling them the disaster is still not enough to disturb its black gold exports plus they've been known as a western darling in the middle east for years and the saudis have been bombing the who theory rebels in yemen with the solid approval of the us and allies.

but back to iran the number one troublemaker in the area through washington's lenses i mean lately even donald trump has hinted he's ready to engage in diplomacy with their leadership could happen it could have. no problem with the black plumes of smoke from the burning saudi oil have probably clouded those intentions with or without john bolton what to do with iran remains the u.s. administration's toughest puzzle. if the u.s. is able to convince its allies like the europeans that. iran was indeed. the country that carried out these attacks then. that could be quite serious but there's no evidence so far that that that is the case where only hearing from the u.s.

that. that iran was responsible obviously the u.s. is is trying to put maximum pressure on iran. but iran manes to be seen whether that will be effective this is the 1st major incident the u.s. has faced since bolton either resigned or was fired and so we will have to watch closely and see who is driving this this this very isolated but aggressive response to these attacks in saudi arabia. from separatist leader of disputed kashmir is set to face trial in an indian court for an alleged murder almost 30 years ago you know soon malik is the head of a group that wants the muslim majority region to belong neither to india nor pakistan nuclear neighbors that both want to claim kashmir in full his separatist

groups been banned in india under a new anti terror law and though he is a former militant 25 years ago his group adopted normal violent methods moloch faces trial for allegedly leading a group of militants who killed 4 indian air force personnel in kashmir in 1990 you seem to believe the indian prison since march are under a law that allows for suspects to be held for up to 2 years without charge his wife told us about the inhumane prison conditions she says he's being kept in. imagine any human being locked up in a cage 5 by 7 feet with an open lap and to sleep there on the really hard cemented floor without any blanket and with this hypertensive lights on his head all the time he's got blood clots in his eyes because the light doesn't go off and he's not allowed to open the cage even for a minute and in the entire 24 hours just for 10 to 15 minutes to open the cage and

like you know you with a leash you pull out a dog from. the dog house and you force them to walk even an animal won't do that because naturally your legs your arms your bourne's they become stagnant and he requires definite physiotherapy which has been recommended by the doctors from that you saw the back story here tensions increased when a district kashmir of a special autonomy state is nearly august this year india sent thousands of additional troops arrested $4000.00 and imposed a communications blockade on the region that it wants to integrate my exwife again told us that india is silencing customary voices. it's basically it's that last for you know just an easy terms like a land grab i mean we're sitting in this house and just imagine if some gangsters it come and they attack us and you know they snatch away our properties and you know they force us to write the name in you know give them the property rights and cut off all the electricity food supplies and we have no voice no connection to the

outside world so we're left defenseless and the same man oh that's what they're doing with us right now they're starving us to death entire nation 1400000 and and i white says are not being heard because naturally we have a voice but all is a clamp down on communications on internet and there's a blanket ban on all the political voices and there's no social media there's no mobile networks no radios don't television so we are totally living on another planet right now kashmir dispute remains one of the longest unresolved conflicts since british india petitioned india and pakistan in $1047.00 when india experts we spoke to justify actions and said that a referendum on the printed is not a viable option. pakistan has changed the demography in the areas that it occupies what we call as pakistan occupied kashmir and they have also brought in

a large amount of the regular presence that is the militants and the terrorists since india had taken the decision on august fire from all the government big these decisions stall and short of that there would be nor. while it's from the people and also that there will be noise damaged by pakistan and the support of the terror groups how india when possible that at the moment it's not very clear but the political claim to pakistan occupied kashmir as the unfinished part of partition is still there on the indian political spreadsheet if you will. telephone you passes a controversial bill but if made law would force universities in the state to provide students seeking to terminate a pregnancy with abortion pills proposal sparked outrage by ensuring that

abortion care is available on campus college students will not have to choose between delaying important medical care or have been to travel long distances on these classes the work not on my dime not on my dime taxed me to help the homeless tax me to help social services the don't tax me to pay for the disposal of human life they should be ashamed to risk women's lives and schools. well if it gets the approval of california's governor in 2023 campus health services that $34.00 universities in the state will be required to provide students with abortion pills according to the bill there are more than 400000 eligible female students at california state university campuses while private donations of about $10000000.00 will be used to train staff and buy machines it's fair that eventually the state would have to cover the cost or universities would have to raise student health these are study of adolescent health found that more than $500.00 women at public universities in california seek medication abortion every month we service an

attorney and author and current turk radio and t.v. host took up the debate. we have to allow women to decide if they want to pursue their education with the complications of bearing children that would be an economic harm to them they have to be able to be able to make a choice and providing them the tools with the abortion pill is simply just doing and doing just that we have to give women a choice but we should also be pushing adoption as an option why do we just want to hand them a pill and say it's ok here take care of your problems you know what the problem is we need to address this before these women get pregnant we need to educate these college students handing them over a pill is not the answer here are we going to say to a woman you know what you had a chance to get an education to create a better life for yourself but you completely ruined that and now that you're pregnant we're not going to be able to complete your studies or there's a risk that you won't be able to do that and so you just have to drop out and don't

have an education don't have the ability going to go after high level jobs i now want to now you're at it because most women ceasars and not interested in being on government and in order not to go sailing and most women are shown on and off for even having already and more fit only a little more you know we can get we can allow these women to go through with a full term pregnancy and allow them to choose adoption but can we actually be honest and discuss the impact of carrying a child for 9 months on a college campus when you absolutely had no desire to be pregnant not only was i an 18 year old mother and did i finish my career and am i here talking to you today but i'm also the product of adoption and adoption is an option and it's an option that seems to be totally off the table in america today when did we stop talking about the fact that you can give a video and saying get off the t.v. that is born in america every baby is born there are 37 families that want to adopt

that baby something is very wrong when we're handing out abortion pills on campus we're allowing women to decide for the. themselves based on what they know about their life experiences and their socio economic status or are they in a position to move forward and currently take one the role of being a mother that is something that's not taken lightly by these women and i believe that when we allow them the tools to make that choice they're going to say you know i have to make this choice for me very simply morally wrong it's morally wrong to promote abortion in a way that it becomes the chosen choice where it becomes the number one choice over a life i'm pro-choice i believe in a woman's right to choose i believe there are circumstances where she should have that choice but i also believe that we need to advocate for a life and the reality is that going to school full time and having a newborn baby is very difficult and it's

a burden that some women have decided that they don't want to take on and frankly who are we to say that they should be forced to go to term with a pregnancy if they're feeling that they're not ready. to join has an updated version of. monopoly to address the gender pay gap it's called miss monopoly and it's got female players getting more money than male players for the same actions as bruce's the game of bodies a positive message about female empowerment but it seems more women are impressed. and look at their other. remember you know. the or. the or. the like.

that. as a woman i find ms monopoly sexist equality doesn't mean women make more than men advocate free a way to grow has for a. year missed monopoly i do not need a financial head start i would like to start equal and then kick some butt thanks. hasbro actually wanted to celebrate women's empowerment with their new ms monopoly game why not finally acknowledge that a woman invented monopoly in the 1st place. in

the 5 years i spent reporting my book the monopolists published in 2015 which chronicled the discovery of the board games invention hasbro declined to comment or knowledge maggie's role in originating the game it trivializes the the plight of women in the workforce. i don't understand what they're trying to do it fact they also pay lip service if best to the originator of of monopoly who was a woman and what it does is it basically takes a cause which many people take very seriously and should the notion of eat quality and equivalent treatment in the light and reduces it to that of a board game and you start off where women make more money and. somehow i guess this is supposed to inspire conversation or some type of insight into

what women go through i think it's tawdry it's pathetic and again still. goes along well this sums him in his post the good morning this is all it's international monday morning the 16th of september in the stories ahead change of government may be a corresponding welcome for my grown so my kids since ruling troubles too it's only . when we come back. the world is driven by a dream shaped by one person. who

dares thinks. we dare to ask. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race is often spearing dramatic to follow only closely i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk.

again as mentioned before the break than italy has allowed migrants disembark now from a rescue vessel onto its territory for the 1st time this year signaling a break from the hard line immigration policies imposed on them and tears salvini the country's former interior minister the move comes as the italian prime minister promises to have a whole italy's immigration policies generally our europe correspondent sheila dubinsky picks up the story today. a radical shift in policy is how many people of viewing this off the 80 to my current were allowed this in italy on the island of lampedusa where the country's new foreign minister the regent to my own is justified this by saying it's not to return to open ports. there's a big misunderstanding about the safe port given to ocean viking it was assigned a port because the e.u. would head to our request to take the major share of the migrants it must be my clear just like with the previous government all right is to ensure that those who

arrive in italy are redistributed to other european countries well that's perhaps understandable given that the anti might quit policies on the closure of it in sports to charity rescue vessels and to michael it was one of the most popular policies instigated by the country's former interior minister much to yourself the need to sort his popularity and the popularity of his party search in the time that he was in government now he's being critical of this recent development and he says it comes as a result of pressure from uni is. population is not a slave of anybody. the whispers with micro and macro on to the traces of the italian people so what about the people who live on the italian island of lampedusa what do they think it's to stop they have the right

to move and it's right to be taller and it's only fair to rescue these migrants but decisions must be made because we can't accept everyone. and their faith in the new government and i hope they will do things differently i hope that with some sense they will be able to govern together for the good of italy. that i was once attacked by a moroccan he looked at me 3 or 4 times saw that i was old and i had to go change he came closer just took it you might become racist when these things happen to you but when. well e.u. leaders are yet to agree on a concrete policy with how they will deal with the continued to my current crisis thorny issues that will once again be raised with a bit later this month and then again. next month. but the reality is while the new italian government say this isn't over to the courts many charity rescue ships will now be seeing what's happened that weekend as

the green light italy's ports are again once a. she said she told world news stories hong kong 1st dozens of people have been injured in violent clashes between riot police and anti government doesn't strike as ongoing the issues water counted tear gas against protesters were thrown petrol bombs bricks most recently near government offices in the city hong kong is mounted sept 15th consecutive weekend of anti-government demonstrations triggered initially by the proposed that this should be all that would allow suspects to be sent to mainland china will eventually suspended but the protests quickly turned into a broader pro-democracy movement. at least 7 people have been killed and 2 injured after a small plane crash near the colombian city of popper john on sunday the incident happened just a few minutes after the aircraft over by a local company took off from the airport an investigation into what went wrong is on the way. good times independent celebrations in hong

jurists have turned violent police in the central american countries where the bullets tear gas and water come against thousands of anti-government protesters demonstration demonstrators cues the nation's president of using drug money to power and control. germany's approach to renewable energy has had some of the wind taken out of it sells we can report the strong resistance from people that live near power generating turbines donal quarter went to meet some of them to see what the problem was. germany's 2030 renewable energy goals are on a collision course with reality the country's energy sector needs a hero something to save the green agenda before it's too late and to fill those larger than life issues the government has put its faith in wind power we are convinced that the expansion towards 65 percent of renewable power on the grid by 2030 can only be reached if the expansion of onshore wind is revived for years wind power was a main driving force of germany's fast expanding green energy industry making up

almost a quarter of total production so far this year its proponents praise wind as one of germany's most important energy sources creating thousands of jobs and many megawatts of energy while also cutting c o 2 emissions but wind farm expansion has slowed to a snail's pace and these towering males have cost hundreds of anti wind citizens initiatives to spring up across the country so i drove down to brandenburg task residents how they felt about these when mills being built in their backyards and enough their craft warning lights are flushing so that you feel like you're in the middle of an industrial park on oil refinery and during winter months the shadows from the rotating mills create a disk to your living room and there are a lot of complains about it i was on talk we're going to even sit outside on sundays or open our windows it noids because of the noise. the whole landscape

licas those are serious problems but noises and shadows aren't the only issues here in fact residents are complaining about other ways in which windmills are hurting the environment i know you are in arguing renewable energies a great idea but then needs to be a reasonable approach windmills in the forest we are generally against that we hadn't must enough troops bats and insects are being killed on mass and that damage is bio diversity by technology that is supposed to be environmentally friendly there are more negative outcomes than positive ones and to top it all off they feel that the government doesn't care who bears the burden when it's wind or when generating zone was built at a distance prescribed for smaller meals and that was ok but then they built an additional one that is 50 meters high with these regard to the local community we haven't been asked but just presented with the facts since it's been to the 1st 6

mills were installed and we urgently considered positive now they're getting bigger taller louder people are getting annoyed and now there is a notion that our contribution to renewables has been fulfilled and the expansion should stop and if the government doesn't explore other alternatives in response to this grassroots opposition germany's environmental goals could be gone with the wind donald corridor r.t. brendan burke. and that's it will do so i'd have so far follow us on facebook and twitter check it out see dot com done that are up for the latest as it may or may not happen throughout the day they'll go straight to mobile device should be the 1st to know here in moscow and kevin own from me in the rest of the team have a great day.

god. you know world of big. and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that midstream refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door. 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.

thousands of american men and women choose to serve in the country's military and the decision. every song came to a complete. the day that i was afraid to be instructed you know told to shut up they'd kill me and i see how it destroyed my life many screamed at me and he made me come in the gram my arm and he raped me this bird thinking if you take into account that women don't report because of the extreme retaliation it's probably somewhere near about half a 1000000 women have now been sexually assaulted in the us military is a very very traumatizing thing tat happen but i've never seen trauma like i've seen from women who are veterans who suffered military sexual trauma reporting rape is more likely to get the victim punished than the offender and almost 10 year career or chose very invested in and i gave a sex offender who was not even going to justice or put on the registry this is simply an issue of tower and file. male sexual predators for the large part of

target whoever is there whether that's a man or woman. a low in welcome across not where all things are considered i'm peter lavelle 80 years ago this month the 2nd world war in europe began 60 years later the scourge of german fascism was defeated however the meaning of the start of the war remains hotly contested this history is intensely political.

thing revisionism i'm joined by my guest geoffrey roberts he is america's professor of history at university college cork as well as member of the royal irish academy and his latest book is churchill and stalin we also have dmitri bobbitt she's a political analyst and editor interest me internet media project and in london we crossed al going to be curious he is a writer on legal affairs as well as editor in chief of the duran dot com hi gentlemen crosstalk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate jeffrey let me go to you 1st your center of visiting moscow and you are in the steam historian of the 2nd world war and of the soviet union why is it contested the beginnings of the 2nd world war because most of time it's about the outcome of the 2nd world war but we had this. debate is in warsaw the russian.
