look there's no. 2 petrol bombs and betakes hong kong's pro-democracy protests take an increasingly violent turn. turkish president stays u.s. troops have started withdrawing from positions in northeast syria have a military offensive by ankara while kurds their appeal to their allies in washington not to turn their back on them. or resume does environmental protests

kick off in 60 cities worldwide extinction rebellion activists call for a shut down of major infrastructure to force government action over climate change but is it all just. what this generation seems to be saying is you've messed things up for long enough you're not really listening the only way we can actually get your attention is actually by civil disobedience extreme rebellion is without question britain's fastest growing pagan religion. very warm welcome to you you're watching r.t. international with me because our top story this hour in hong kong 2 protesters have been charged with violating the newly introduced ban on face mosques is the 1st time the law has been applied to having a ritually be named in defusing tension. by keeping people off the streets the

activists were accompanied to called by a peaceful crowd is also a public holiday and hong kong for a festival when families commemorate the ancestors so far there's no reports of clashes in the territory or the activists were seen blocking roads and people the police units have been deployed to prevent a repeat of sunday's violence. thank you. thank you. thank you well the initial protests over a now abandoned extradition bill has since snowballed into a wider rights movements which is proving difficult to control a warning some may find the next scenes distressing a taxi driver was badly beaten after he plowed into marchers knocking 2 down it's unclear if he is the dent was deliberate but it didn't stop the crowd from turning

on the driver and the actress who was also assaulted in hong kong on sunday she was hit with an umbrella as and a tennis racket while trying to take pictures of protesters vandalizing a branch of the bank of china she was later seen bloodied and inject as us here taylor now reports with images like this coming from hong kong it's a list of supplies people are drawing comparisons to a horror movie. on kong has gone from being the economic power of the orient to the face of the fight for democracy but the faces of those trying to rust control from beijing's crossed a mosque and the democratic means they're using wouldn't be out of place and hollywood horror film the passage i am. trying to. take. the time.

the film's premise is that once a year for 12 hours only crimes are allowed mogs fact austin rave you name it you've got a free pass and that because of this small window to release all your rage but country becomes crime free for the other $364.00 days it's a small sacrifice for the wider peace and stability and in scenes eerily similar to the film's opening hong kong apparently had a pudge of its own currency brokers are still there since me and you work for. the merchants the service is suspended for will. remember urged us to scientists like. ok it was a hoax but it was a hoax that actually wasn't that far from the reality of the chaotic mania gripping

the streets of hong kong. hong kong had a very dark night because of the extreme acts of the rioters the city's now a cemetery lies to everyone is worried how real this raid. shops looted buildings and the metro disrupted for the 1st time in over 20 years shopping centers food shops and banks closed down fearing wolf islands from the vandals a city which was renowned for its efficiency and convenience is now ma it in confusion and disorder the instability has spooked the markets and seen hong kong's retail sales suffer the biggest drop on record and while the city's 1000000 as a packing must suitcases for those who can't just rustle up a 1000000 euros to get a foster residency abroad the options are limited bill can go anywhere we came from mainland china and we didn't know the stations were close. so now we converse is

a big problem for public transport is for everyone the decision to open or close the station cannot be politically if it's everyone's daily life but if you save its traditions which we have for you see trees not many people use the phrase and because of them of those. are 3 we really are friends all the life discourse and hire the entire thing anyway so i think that's kind of ridiculous now there are those who will say the film shows scenes of senseless violence while the protesters are engaged in a campaign of peaceful civil disobedience and what of course no image shows the full picture for this undercover police officer who was beaten and with petrol bombs by and incensed mob the line is probably a bit more blood with the lenses of the international media zoomed in on the region there's no shortage of scenes just like this and don't worry if it's a slow day but i'm more than willing to lend

a helping hand to spice up the show i don't. think. any. the patch in the film lost 12 hours in hong kong with 17 weeks and counting and as those on both sides of the barricades refuse to back down a resolution seems far off so there is no end game that's the infinity war that hong kong people are willing to engage in as businesses are crushed as fires by and of people are forced to pick sides claims that it's all in the name of peace and democracy are increasingly wearing thin these protests is no longer

a pro-democracy protests it is turning to rival that the protests the most the engage in violence are young people it is because for the past. decades. the home call government nor to have a strong policy measures to ensure. the young people after they graduated from school or university they would have high quality jobs the porters start are nor will organize they do not have a hierarchy to come into the store forty's to pull to start running the wrong doing whatever they like leaving the police nor toys bus to due. to the past then it's likely that the whole situation. necessary to eat up because external forces to come in and out is

a scenario that i can anticipate the rich really happened in the short run. it's workers president says american troops stationed in northeastern syria has now begun pulling out of the region head of a military operation that ankara has been threatening to imminently conduct that video apparently showing u.s. military. very very cause moving away from their positions along the turkish syrian border has emerged kurdish forces in the region in turn have mobilized and have begun preparing anti-tank trenches us earlier said its troops in ne in syria would not support or be in the immediate area if turkey launched an offensive they're effectively abandoning their kurdish allies on top of that washington has seemingly tried to pass responsibility to european states. the united states government has pressed france germany and other european nations from which many captured isis fighters came to take them back but they did not want them and refused the united

states will not hold them for what could be many years and great cost to the united states taxpayer turkey will now be responsible for all isis fighters in the area captured over the past 2 years in the wake of the defeat of the territorial caliphate by the united states. our senior correspondent mark out you have a look at why american troops are in syria in the 1st place and what they're actually doing there now america's role in syria it's difficult to explain they came to fight isis isis has been all but destroyed in syria but america's staying to fight isis. you see what i mean by difficult to explain and people are getting impatient sick of things staying in limbo turkey is done waiting it's going to invade subway look we have made our preparations completed our plans and given the necessary instructions we will conduct this operation on the ground and in the

air tanks and troops are flooding toward the turkey syria border we're talking here about a theater wide offensive a front line of almost 500 kilometers turkey's serious it wants america's pet army the s.d.f. which it views as terrorists god yes the f. kurds predominantly aren't going down without a fight the s.c.f. is committed to the security mechanism framework and has been taking necessary steps to preserve stability in the region however we will not hesitate to send any and provoked attack by turkey into an all out war on the entire border to defend ourselves and our people are the ones been pushing the idea of a syria safe zone for ages he's got millions of syrian arab refugees he wants to resettle there and there appeared to be progress joint u.s. and turkish patrols through this planned saves road until turkey realized what was

going on. limbo america dragging its feet and stretching the tired out bogus line patrols patrol is we are seeing all of these a fiction. come to think of it america's role in syria it's like a door stop wedged with a door halfway open so you can close it and you can't open it and the door stop does nothing but annoy anyone trying to get in or out to get something done and it has no good reason to be there i mean seriously in a recent congressional report they argued that the u.s. should stay in syria because get this all those defeated isis fighters could potentially theoretically stage multiple prison breaks and become a threat the ice is detainee population is a few prison breaks away from refilling its ranks for the next phase of battle talk

about running out of excuses i mean as i saying that you should change your card because you could burst the tire in the future came up with that is that in turn we godless the problem with turkey invading other than the fact that it's an invasion is that there are an awful lot of us troops packed together with the guys turkey calls terrorists and they're still there despite all of trumps humbug about leaving we've beaten them and we've beaten them badly we've taken back the land and now it's time for our troops to come back home it will become another syria like very soon let the other people take care of it now we are 1 fully back in syria we're going to be removing our troops so here are trumps options get out of the way of the turkish invasion by withdrawing troops or stay and risk being bombed by nato if he leaves the liberal mob are going to go nuts and shout all the louder if

he stays well he might have to explain why american troops are being shot at by nato allies. it's a tough choice are we ever knew the life of a doorstop could be so complicated the reaction has been coming from europe to encourage plans for a military operation in syria a spokesperson person for the german government warns warns that such an invasion would lead to further escalation in syria pointing out the possible humanitarian consequences while the european union said the operation would hamper prospects for a peaceful solution to the year's long conflict wise and commentator after the one told as america's handling of the situation will likely undermine appearance as a reliable ally. i believe that american ministration will be their great use the kurds always use america letting them down now is actually confirming you

don't doubt that america is not a liar well i like it when he decided to wash his hands completely from that that this week in the north syria when he decided to be your turn not the big bomb and bending is a light and not syria in this case this is new york but i'd be willing to use a local problem with him i'm going to get not only a lot of studio but also in north america and other parts of the works to. climb a protest in london by environmental action group extinction rebellion has seen $21.00 arrested including an 81 year old woman ahead of the monday morning rush hour before the 2 we campaign kicked off police in the british capital also rounded up 10 activists as off the group threaten to shut down westminster and cripple the city's transport network is part of a worldwide movement starting in 60 cities this monday. protesters have also

disrupted traffic in central amsterdam madrid and berlin despite a warning of a clamp down by a with bar seats dutch police say they made 50 arrests near a popular tourist attraction for them but live around a 1000 people blocked a traffic roundabout general party said they will stop making the rest of the time being addressed police say 33 activists have been taking to their premises and we arrested for resisting planting wyatt offices 30 activists have also been apprehended in australia and new zealand extinction rebellion has been in the headlines throughout the year with hundreds of activists to rest.

types of actions that we want to engage with are disruptive to business as usual but all but disruptive in a way that is not repellent to observers or outsiders people who may not even consider themselves to be environmentalists or politically active or aware cetera but people who are just. paying attention in the world and understand that we are in a crisis and so they will be attracted or drawn into the spirit of the rebellion there are many ways to get involved in extinction or 1000000 and we don't really place getting arrested above not getting arrested among extinction rebellions key demands all the governments declare a climate emergency hold the loss of biodiversity on drastically reduce carbon emissions by 2025 from seeing it as

a peaceful nonviolent campaign to potentially holding all the ingredients of an extremist movement here's some of the reaction we've been harry. extinction rebellion is without question britain's fastest growing pagan religion and the reason i refer to as a pagan religion is just as all the classic hallmarks of a group of religious fundamentalists a belief that their view is the only view that's acceptable a desire to shut down everything that does not talk to their worldview they fundamental belief that they are in charge and everybody else also go to their beck and call how do you resolve pollution the result polluted by technological advancements the technological advancements the extinction rebellion oppose what this generation seems to be saying is you've messed things up for long enough you're not really listening the only way we can actually get your attention is actually by civil disobedience in the footsteps of mahatma gandhi and martin luther king jr and malcolm x. and rosa parks and people who decided that peaceful nonviolent public protest.

displays of public outrage but tamed and controlled don't forget the extinction rebellion and anybody who is involved in political activism or any kind of change agenda they going to use your actions and activities against you look extinction rebellion of demand effects we have returned to the stone age removal of economic progress a commitment to not grow the economy so essentially the british government for example has committed to being 0 carbon by 2050 which i think is nominally said suppose you can't or shouldn't trust all words that come to our service we had our city contrast because our numbers in the names become clear every single year if i can be directly into the camera my 11 year old son who was at home with the band hello guys and we had a debate before it came on tonight about does he want to. leave school. take a break for an afternoon or

a day to go and protest he was worried about the consequences at age 11 he understands that the climate is suffering and that rapid change is needed we do. need to talk of pollution but i will tell you something you regret you reverse the economic advantages that have lifted a 1000000000 people up and say you do not make the earth a better place extinction rebellion lying. about that line news on the way plus i made a wave of unrest in ecuador and then you can ask me to take the lead against to feel subsidies on the price and i thank you for that. you know world's big partners new law 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 on the bad 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. the world is driven by a dream shaped by one person or those great. dares thinks. we dare to ask.

welcome back pay pal the american online payment company is leaving the team behind facebook's plans digital currency libor some financial analysts suggest pay pal is running scared of risk but the firm claims it just needs to focus on its core business for now pay pal has made the decision to go for the participation in the liberal association the ston and to continue to focus on advancing now exists in mission and business priorities as was strive to democratize access to financial services for underserved populations. well let's break down libra facebook says it will be used to pay for goods and services on excited eventually other purchases through phone ups its official launch is planned for next year libor will be managed by the liberal association that's founded by facebook and $27.00 other companies including these are mastercard and british telecoms giant vodafone but

compete with basically. anything and everything that's the wild wild west right now because nobody is approaching the unbreakable the fact is facebook the fact that it's so big at the starting point is not a start up this is going to be like donald's and a new brewer on do all of their branches immediately has the potential to become a big hit and and that is the problem because this is currency does not burgers it's a big deal so. if it does move forward there's the potential for abuse they want to know everything about you better than what you do with your wallet that is going to help them compete with google better in every other major global ad agency in the world. indigenous groups and workers unions have blocked major roads in ecuador in the us out of government protests leading to clashes with police in some areas one protester was killed in

let's hope that. what holds us do something that. they put themselves on the line big get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or somehow want to be. that you'd like to be for us this is what before 3 in the morning can't be good that. i'm interested always in the waters in the hollow. they're sitting. in this community and there are people who believe that it's ok this other

excellent food on my table it's really hard there are no jobs and you see that i've got kids that ask and as a parent. i can come up with a logical argument there's a lot of conflict in the game between the teams most of the conflict i would say over balls around money and most of their money is made. plus one on each other does he know each other is good business the state of california alone makes $6000000000.00 a year of the prison complex just to get some 20 a life where. you don't care and one of my cares about your so you don't care about anything. i don't find any i'm on it. as of some of my actual future truck.
