the united states has been one of the biggest supporters whether it's politically whether it's financially in a range of manners of the moderate opposition including the freestream our syrian army the administration is staking its efforts in syria on the free syrian army aid and assistance that we're going to give to the free syrian army is used to advance the cause against guys will watch the transformation of the free syrian army as well early on have they gotten more quickly better or is it just me well guess what forces fighting under the f s a's latest incarnation are now attacking the united states as part of the de confliction exchange information has been received from the u.s. side to that on 3rd november a convoy of american servicemen was fired upon from the territory controlled by the pro turkish syrian national army so how did this happen i was a group go from being worthy of u.s.

got the syrian national army this is a totally new organization with dozens of different factions $80000.00 total fighters approximately and guess who their minister of defense is well you guessed it it's major solid interests but he's got a completely new script now he is no longer a big fan of the stars and stripes as the syrian conflict twists and turns you have to ask yourself who is the united states going to end up supporting next and how long until they turn against the united states again this incident at the very least. destabilizing the presence of american speed and also the support for these groups like the so-called syrian national omi which consists of people who quite aggressive jihad to use and so it's been ones convenience and now it's become inconvenient. for that how did this who have seen that yes the americans have abandoned the kurds who they disliked but of course they fear that they too will be

rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or some want to. have to go right to the press this is what before 3 of them all can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters about how. best sibyl. we're back french president. has funded in the midst of a diplomatic scandal after making controversial remarks about clandestine gangs of both carrying ukrainian migrants france's ambassador to 2 countries have been summoned r.t. charlotte dubinsky reports. president much corn is well known for his forthright

views but once again being outspoken has learned to take in hot water this time it's with bulgaria crane so what exactly did he say i prefer to have people from guinea or ivory coast who work legally rather than clandestinely networks of bulgaria and ukrainians both countries were incensed enough to issue formal protests ambassador holding to explain mark orton's comments macross statement is outrageous because he is a participant in the norm of deformity and should be specially careful in choosing a worse budget crain and ukrainians involved area and e.u. country this was another example of the east west divide within the union french president my current statement is just another demonstration of political arrogance cheekiness what's also puzzling for bulgarians is the somewhat

muddled reference to illegal immigration given that it's an e.u. country and its citizens have the right to work anywhere across the union including in france excuse me but is micron really able to talk about bulgaria does he know the bulgarians well enough to talk about them like this. i find such behavior towards us totally unacceptable however it is clear that there are criminal networks from bulgaria operating here in france and this it seems is what mark corn has issue with but how do people in paris feel about mcewan's preference for working my quince 7 it is ridiculous it's a french president of all people should make a distinction like this between different types of immigration to friends but i don't see why it's come across to decide who has the right to come and who doesn't . immigration whether from eastern europe. well the ivory coast is all the same we

allow everyone to integrate while it's true that i'm not too keen on micron in this case i think he's right it is better to verify who's coming in to control our borders and immigration not cohen has since his election in 2017 been clear about his views for the future of the european union he wants an army closer integration or in a sense of the e.u. project as such but though is lofty ambitions were once the toast of europe it seems his opinions are more often than not hitting too close to home and turning allies against him and there are warnings that his plans will be difficult to achieve without friends. r.t. paris. there is little protests in the south american nation of chile to end any time soon as the man social equality to the forefront of santiago's

political policies clashes again took place on monday between demonstrators and police. i will leave his demonstrations come after a short pause and weeks of protests at least 20 people have been killed during the only risk losing an arson also forced major international gatherings to become a un climate summit governments say 6 police officers have been injured including 2 who were set on fire by molotov cocktails thrown by protesters we asked people in santiago for their thoughts on the trouble. this is nonsense it's clear that our voices are not being heard our demand so not being heard is making me feel if the north frustrated. those in high places keep squabbling and any moment this could explode in your is they want to be held responsible as well as the corrupt mafia is it hiding away and not taking part in the protests. there

needs to be a rethinking of the liberal system it doesn't work any longer at least not in this country. political correctness has been propelled to center stage at theatres in london's west end they say phrases like ladies and gentleman are to be phased out and are seeking more gender neutral expressions to replace them here so. ladies and gentlemen the show is about to start please make your way to you'll see the usual queue for provinces of the west. famous. in london but it's a saying might be making a hasty exit they could see the actors and entertainers trade union has released guidelines encouraging theaters to drop the term ladies and gentleman and use gender neutral terminology for collective calls both front of house and back stage so avoid alienating people who identify as non-binary so neither male nor female

somebody the apollo have already dropped the phrase opting in. good evening or welcome stressing that they want everyone to feel welcome while london's transport network has already made the change from ladies and gentlemen to phrases such as good evening everyone but want to see it's a go is think about these changes if they didn't announce what they were doing it probably wouldn't notice so suppose it's fair enough although i quite like ladies and gentlemen to be honest should be on nothing give or take before you fall the receipt so i. think maybe older generations of my you know think it's a bit controversial but you know what i mean maybe upset because they're used to the tradition i mean if people that tended by that time thing it's. either a lady or a gentleman either or and to me that's. the ticket price to see both sides up and if it does change then i feel like it wouldn't be bad but at the same time if it

doesn't change i think you just have to respect that people should say ladies and gentlemen you can't list all all the gender is exactly it's only a meeting and it's traditional the guidance released by equity follows on from a motion passed by student union representatives last month at oxford university the motion encourages the phasing out of capping to be replaced by a more side of the pools but resembles. it's a move to foster more inclusive it see the critics are calling this political correctness gone too far so will the changes be met with calls for an uncool all booed off stage. london. pressure is being ramped on pakistani prime minister in run counter. to demand his resignation they say he only came to power because of last year's election was a rig and accuse him of flawed economic policies the leader of the protest movement

is set to meet government officials this tuesday the demonstrations began in the southern city. karachi around 10 days ago in progress towards the capital islamabad those protesting are pushing for another election to be held and for the army to remain of the process and the prime minister was given until sunday to quit. 24 hour extension has also no reportedly expired meantime protest leaders say the movement will continue until their demands are met. yet you continue this protest and to throw these illegal rulers out of power they must realize their rule is over your monday time government has no more monday now. or we heard from a pakistan political expert who thinks it's unlikely the protest movement will reach its gold when it comes to the model of the party forcing berms to resign that is unlikely lockley it is because of the fact that the army is the sporting 1 mr

brown calm and also because of the 5 of the opposition parties they're going to enjoy that going to public school or where by they can force by mr resigned there is a possibility that the opposition it will force some sort of christlike all over pakistani army base but that these are likely to attract any public sympathies give about 5 people are more concerned about. and this particular bill just has not last year's public reaction there are more than under 2000 people on the ground which are present in one particular religious party. it only really going to groups liberals in a far different backgrounds they're going to enjoy that going to war very thick implode people are. going way beyond the financial headlines and next we are crossing to the counties reports in moments to make sense of all things business markets to stay close.

case of we work but they keep on throwing money and they're willing because there's always somebody to flip to they all share $2.00 things in common one they're fabulously efficient finely tuned and endlessly perfected cash burn machines and to investors in these companies count on new cash from new investors to bail out and removing the rate the existing investors otherwise known as a ponzi scheme or a pyramid scheme this is essentially was driving the economy is burning cash it's a beautiful thing because it doesn't cost anything to get all the cash you want from the central bank for free they give it they give you trillions and trillions of dollars if you're a friend of theirs you get to burn a trillion and you keep a 1000000000 that's the deal so let's say hillary clinton's foreign policy for example the government gives surf you chilian dollars cheaper.
