question. coming up deadlocked 2.0. on course for yet another election. currently. coalition talks. for a majority in part. to assemble a strong zionist government with everyone. who worked to form a prude unity government. the new york times faces

a plus for publishing an excerpt from a forthcoming. u.s. supreme court judge. leaving important details. around the clock across the world this is r.t. international from the team myself you know a low unwelcome. our top story saudi arabia is no claim the other run was involved in this weekend's attack on the kingdom's oil refineries anough the attack was not conducted from yemen in the site but rather came from the north according to them the country's defense ministry a juror in a press conference in riyadh over the past 19 minutes or so. is live on

the program he's been following developments from press conference on the back drawing to it caleb what evidence indeed did saudi arabia put forward to support the accusations well at the press conference we heard from the ministry of defense of saudi arabia they said that sense saturday's attack they have looked into the matter done a thorough investigation and come to some pretty definite conclusions here's what they said. the attack did not originate from yemen it was movement from the movement and was unquestionably sponsored by iran this is one of the missiles we have recovered and we have information that leads us to the source these kind of components were made in iran and that. now as the saudi officials were speaking scattered parts of the missile were across the room pointed to as evidence they were pointing to these missile parts that they had in

the room as evidence that iran was responsible this is some of what we heard. we will spot the launch point. and do you think it's most likely to be random i'm sure we will split it we're working and who have is responsible about it. they will take accountability. now the saudi officials emphasize that they said that the component parts of the missile were iranian made they also emphasized that they accuse iran of trying to hide evidence from their might bomb peo is reported to be going to saudi arabia at the moment he'll be arriving in saudi arabia and when he does they will have more information now when pressed about what the location from which the attack was launched was they wouldn't really give specific answers however more specific answers are expected to be given when mike pompei

o arrives in saudi arabia. give thanks very much for bring this right to all the dates on the media conference within the hour 90 minutes or so we discuss the recent developments with gordon banks a former british m.p. and a senior research fellow for the u.k. defense academy he earlier told me that saudi arabia can't be certain to run most behind the attack. well i think that's diplomatic speak what they really mean is that the weaponry may well have been supplied and probably was by iran in exactly the same way that my country and others have supplied arms to the kingdom of saudi arabia. been used in this 4 year war against yemen in my experience saudi arabia tends to expect the you know the united states to do its dirty work i think president trump who is thinning out some of the hawks in the white house knows that

it would be a very bad idea to take any kind of strike against iran. i think i think it's very unlikely i think the only way that this issue can be resolved is by dialogue and deploy diplomacy it's the only way and certainly behind the scenes the british government are saying to the united states . america is not going to get countries like germany and france all on board no matter what the rhetoric. here ok moving on to another headline story with more than 90 percent of the vote counted the fate of israel's prime minister hangs in the balance this wednesday binyamin netanyahu is party currently trails benny gantz faction by seats in the 2nd parliamentary election of the year

in any case neither men enough to form a government which means yet more protracted coalition talks lie ahead earlier kevin got some background from off. this vote was largely viewed not as a general election but as a vote of confidence for netanyahu and mind that not for his party but for him personally and that is important because the whole the reason why these elections happened is because netanyahu couldn't form a government after the elections in april so he called for another elections and during the containing some of his policies the policies that he personally proposed they managed to a alienate some of his former allies and be gave a boost to his rivals also at the same time this adds up to the corruption charges he could still be indicted on 3 in 3 cases for so what if the campaign what did he promise the public that didn't seem to go down so well he drove a very hard bargain when it comes to the right wing agenda being very pro jewish

kind of anti arab i should say because he talked about an exciting settlements in the west bank and in the jordan valley he times and times again raised questions about the loyalty of the arab community and effectively he ruled out any possibility of forming a coalition with a force that will puts forward the interests of an arab minority. in the coming days will convene negotiations to assemble a strong zionist government to prevent a dangerous and to zionist government. will not and cannot be a government that leans on iraq and to zionist passes so as to the early days are still an exit polls but how is it looking that the minority voters voted it's very indicative case of how benjamin netanyahu is rhetoric blew in his face more arabs showed up at the polls and cause and effect here and more seats for the pro arab

party they are in fact are coming in 3rd in the race right now too soon yet still to talk about coalition building but i bet so is going on behind the scenes benny gantz is the key rival of benjamin netanyahu and he. he has a sort of a personal problem with the incumbent prime minister but he has already said that he's ready to form a coalition with any political force the likud party included i intend to speak with everyone starting tonight we will work to form a broad unity government that will express the will of our people. i would like to focus on a man who could be the kingmaker liberman an ally turned rival and all of that because of benjamin netanyahu who's very favorable views and very favorable policies towards the ultra orthodox parties to have ultra orthodox jews exempt from military service and as for what is going to happen next the president of israel and admittedly a man a person we don't talk much we don't hear much about he is going to choose he's

going to choose a man that most worthy of forming a coalition and in his opinion and we'll see where it goes from there. political analysts michel barak believes that for know mr netanyahu doesn't have any viable options for a coalition. the ironic thing is the last election which was a few months ago and to now had really all the options in the world he could have formed a right of center government a narrow one with about 61 seats or he could have sat down with benny gantz and had a unity government with 70 and added more parties he chose to do neither he wasn't successful and either called for new elections now what it appears is i would say it's the final countdown to the end of the career and that's and you know he's talking about a narrow right of center zionist government you know a narrow government and benny gantz is sounding like a leader unifying the people the will of the people he's going to talk to all the

parties most of the parties that have run from the left blue and white to the labor party to the democratic camp party all of them has said will join a national unity government with the likud even we just won't do it with that and you know that and you know for most israeli politicians and many and many of the israeli people as damaged goods. heading stateside now and you tell all book about allegations of alleged sexual harassment by the u.s. supreme court justice brett kavanaugh has been previewed in the new york times but the paper's facing a blush for a partly taking things out of context and the betrayed who has been reading between the lines if you're kind of sick of hearing the same story all over again like the president called this or that media nothing but junk or you're glad you haven't heard the name brand cavanaugh and something related to his genitals for a while i'm really sorry i don't think they'll do it but they should for the good of the nation i call for the resignation of everybody had to do york times involved

. yep which is once again one of the biggest stories in the land of trump and co versus the liberals here we go so to tom's journalists wrote a book and had a preview published in the sunday paper what's being teased are 2 previously on reported alleged cases of sexual harassment by brad cavanaugh now a supreme court justice from his years at yale. a freshman named brett kavanaugh pulled down his pants interest his penis at her prompting her to swatted away and inadvertently touch it. a classmate max dear saw mr cameron with his pants down at a different junction durham party where friends pushed his penis into to hand over a female student now that is gross if it fell on mr cavanaugh was really up to all

that surely he must face severe consequences although for now these are just lines from a book not something put forward by let's say the folks from the justice department but if you pick almost any one of the democratic presidential candidate lineup they've made up their minds on what should be next for kavanaugh confirmation is not exoneration and these news revelations that disturb him like the man who appointed him kevin all should be impeached he was put on the court through a sham process and he is placed on the court as an insult to the pursuit of truth and justice he must be impeached it is more clear than ever that brett kavanaugh lied under oath he should be impeached i stand with survivors and countless other americans in calling for impeachment proceedings to begin but dig a bit deeper and perhaps trump's latest rant at the n.y.t. isn't so wide off the mark there could have been a bit of

a problem with their journalistic ethics you see some conservative folks got an advanced copy of the book and realized something rather important was dropped in the times teaser the book notes quietly that the woman max steer named as having been supposedly victimized by kavanagh in france denies any memory of an alleged event seems odd or no significant it was then the paper's turn to do something about it after a while here's what they came up with. an earlier version did not include want aliment of the book's account regarding an assertion my classmate to friends of brett kavanaugh bushies penis into him of a female student and a drunken dorm party the book reports that if female student declined to be interviewed and friends see the she does not recall the incident that information has been added to. the authors were bound to be asked why the central piece of the puzzle was missing and your draft of the article didn't include those words that

have since been added to the article and to it so somewhere in the editing process those words were yeah i mean i think what happened actually was that you know we had her name and you know the times doesn't usually include the name of rectum and so i think in this case the editors felt like maybe it was probably better to remove it and in removing her name they removed the other reference to the fact that she didn't remember that they could have done a good job at protecting the victim or they could have messed up whole thing up wildly because no matter what's not in the article they say her name is in the book or maybe mr trump was right and they didn't want to read the story of that extra spice and left out the crucial bit on purpose what if the woman doesn't even consider herself a victim she reportedly says she doesn't remember anything gross like this oh god. his genitals liberal media rob watch this space my friends ever heard of eco anxiety if not expect to hear

a lot more about it in the coming weeks months years we've got the story after the break. the world is driven by dreamers shaped by one person. the day years thing. we dare to ask. you know world of big. lot 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 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. 16 minutes into the program we're back with our international the teenage face of the global climate change movement has been giving the us close addressing done 16 year old gratitude bird told members to listen to the scientists she earlier met former president barack obama address the senate as well don't invite us here just

to tell us how inspiring we are without actually doing anything about it because it doesn't lead to anything i know you're trying but just not hard enough sorry. mr berg is in washington for a few days ahead of a global climate strike planned for friday she also addressed the u.n. climate action summit in new york on monday this we became the face of this year's climate protests by taking part in school strikes skipping class joined by students around the world scientists who are warning of a growing number of youngsters being treated for eco anxiety after being exposed to apocalyptic warnings about the earth's environmental plight britain's climate psychology alliance say these children are being prescribed psychiatric drugs to cope and wants the problem to become a recognised condition. i'm happy to say about psychotherapists coraline

heckman joins us live on the program to the scuffs the issue a little bit more carline is the executive of the climate psychology alliance good to have you here caroline what overall picture 1st of all what draws youngsters into this issue and why are cases of equal anxiety rising so rapidly it's an issue that's been a run for a long long time isn't it. it has been around for a long time but i think that younger people are naturally very empathetic to the state of the environment most going on in the wild at the moment and ecological. crisis so they're naturally more empathetic they naturally cam we're talking about their future so of course they perceive this as a real stretch to them whereas i think for a lot of adults that thinking about this in terms of what they might be losing young people it's that they're talking about so i think it's perfectly understandable they're really high stress distressed about this but i think what's

crucial here is that we have pathology i would not progress mental health problem in fact i think this is a very emotionally healthy response to the music world at the moment if you look at news footage of the arctic and the amazon no. i would wonder if somebody wasn't creating sanctions you know what triggers the eco items i need and what's the usual symptoms here. well i think what triggers it is a growing awareness of the state well so we could almost call it the kinds that is quite catchy but she who almost stated ecological lance anything clues other feelings like grief and rage and frustration spare into question i think often triggers it is noticing what's going on on the news maybe the day without a great documentary that has a huge impact youth crime strikes having him her extinction repeatedly and.

there's a lot of movement at the moment getting together where people are starting to talk about how they feel about states well we can't ignore what's going on in the news because the graphic images we're frying seeing are really quite your organization is warning per and so i believe in the guardians not to frighten their children over a potential climate catastrophe i've got it right but if. the next generation is just going to walk into the same problem isn't it because if you're talking about seeing so many images that's only going to increase social media you know that's only going to get bigger as well how can they be educated how can they be protected from this yeah absolutely i think it's much more structural in nuance than warning parents not to frighten their children i've talked to children about this and really what we would want to say is it's really important to tell children the truth and not hide the truth from them but seldom about these things in ways that they can understand don't exaggerate many of my seeds because both of those who was

distressed and with problems children need to be given commission. seriously or not just say things can be some very patronize in language around children and sumburgh in these climate strike is you know things like well i thought i knew everything at 60 it's really and how. well just all not one of the things she said the world leaders. i want you to pernik you know if you're hearing things like like that worry kind of over overtakes the education somewhat would it not. it's really interesting to see very many years there was no narrative. and people were a lot more reasons about discussions but there was no action and one of the things that's additionally causing and people to stress is what they perceive as adults lack of action and lack of concern well so they started to introduce this language

about panic thank you know i want to know how some so what they're really talking about. urgent action recording artists for adults to actually listen to them and take that seriously we would really be betraying i think we're abandoning our children if we didn't start ok here we are in firmly in front but critics of would say caroline doubt there's an industry being built up there's a lot of money at stake here when it comes to climate change and that. something like between berg team because it's not just the 16 year old at the front of this is perhaps actually whipping up frenzy where it's not perhaps big best thing to do that nuanced reasoned debate has to happen 1st before world leaders will listen in a way. well yes i mean those that's a very recent argument but i didn't set nasa alongside. of thousands of people losing their lives hundreds of species going extinct so given that you need to set

mass against this kind of narrative well looking at the frenzy and i'm not sure they were looking at the frenzy i think they're expressing themselves honestly and openly one of the things that adults sometimes struggle with with children's expression of emotion is that it's quite direct and may not surprise and actually telling it like it is i think a lot of rado if they were honest with themselves would probably be feeling just as scared is giving medication the best thing to do to children over something which is a nudge roadworthy which is something that you have to perhaps talk through but it seems to be bout that it's being given out more and more hastily in society as a whole this seems to be the focus of more medication being under a lot. actually secret you would be very concerned here that said children's just gestures being medicated away as i said earlier you know the emotional responses make perfect sense in the light of what's going on in the wild so the 1st thing we

need to do is listen to them talk to them and help them process these complicated feelings and if that's difficult for adults and really the time psychology lines hold and happy to support adults with dealing with their feelings as well we're working with groups of parents and schools to set up workshops and training so that they are more able to to their children one of the aspects interesting a few months ago harlem was when the school strikes were happening it seemed to pay every friday almost on a weekly basis if you know the right kids obviously did not know the ins annoyed to climate change a lot did a lot didn't and maybe just wanted a day off school was there really a sense that adults are being put to one side and children were were taking over the reins and you know they'd rather go out and march than learn in school well it's really interesting you should say that because yes of course this. gauge mintz amongst children just as there is with adult children that's a leading this the end people leading this really well informed and spends

a lot of time talking with them and they're very thoughtful about this they're very nuanced that mation and what they're really concerned about is informing people and helping other people get involved we were acting in the consequence he writes is linked with greenpeace and the president saying in situ to try and set a narrative pasterns to children we want to come out and stratton and we've been talking to them about what sort of education they really think they need moment and they came up with things like building and plan and identifying great need and how to have conversations. and how to build emotional resilience and emotional intelligence to prepare them for the future that they're inheriting so i think if we sit down in this. i think. because we saw the response here it's seen if you actually take care of our children but we really need sweet paying a little bit more respect and attention so what's it's they're saying to us because

they do have a loss and yet it's a very interesting discussion thanks for coming on and giving your point if you carlene executive of the climate psychology alliance a psycho therapist as well thanks for that thank you all right that is how our made week news update looks for this witness they do hope you can join the director for all of it the thoughts are raw and half an hour's time from now in the meantime though the word stay close more great programs beginning moment. when i was told seemed wrong. just don't call. me.

yet to seep out of this thing become educated and in detroit equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we just of the common ground. they all see themselves as dying swans in their dreams. but only one in a 1000 will ever make it to the top. they're ready to give their lives for the chance to die on stage if only once. no even broken wings could detect them. for generations at the madrid ski theatre ballet sweat and tears on the t.v.

. ratings and salutation. human beings have an incredible capacity for love kindness and empathy watchers but tragically sometimes it seems that we also have an almost primal instinct towards self-destruction or at the very least we can be pretty cavalier with our own safety both personally and mouse from the kid on the escalator acting the fool to our national leaders and their strange fingers on the button yes to the bottom. today we are going to start this party my friends with a bang a nuclear bang in the form of a new princeton based video simulation currently making the rounds on social media that proves there was no such thing as a limited small tactical nuclear war called plan aids researchers at princeton

university science and global security lab created the form of the animation to show the potentially catastrophic consequences of current u.s. and russian nuclear war plans according to the researchers the simulation is based on an actual independent assessments of current u.s. and russian force postures and nuclear weapon targets in total after all the birds of launched as you can see here in the video yet the estimates more than 91000000 people in russia the united states and nato allied countries might be killed or injured within 3 hours following a single nuclear warning shot 91000000 people and that doesn't even take into account the deaths from nuclear fallout and all the other long term health and environmental effects from a full on nucular exchange it's sobering videos and statistics like these that
