the meeting between the chief of nato and france's president fails to resolve tensions within the alliance with still casting doubt. but whether nato can go on with its current form. to believe you are in the group of political instability let's talk to a local man who was brutally beaten and publicly humiliated by rivals of our president. could be to me and i want people to take a step back and see. germany's highest court rules in favor of

a man convicted of murder over 30 years ago. name removed from online search engines we put the issue up for debate. this person should have the slate wiped clean on the fact that the store he's going to be discriminated against or push him back into life of crime. they may want to move on the families can move on. and the should never try and. live from moscow thanks for joining us and r.t. international this morning i'm daniel welcome to the program. a meeting between a french president and the nato chief has apparently failed to resolve lingering tensions but it might all mark one again the cause thing doubt on the current agenda of the near 70 year old military alliance. looks at the roots of the tensions. one of the 1st symptoms of irrelevance is when you find yourself

having to remind people that you're relevant successful and someone's got off on a bit of a verbal self-congratulatory blitzkrieg nato is the most successful alliance in history and the alliance that strive to join showing the historic suspects of nato and liberal nato and it has been the most successful alliance in the history there is more much more in the store machine amount of a standing valid stake a step back look at it objectively almost 30 years since the cold war ended and nato hasn't changed almost nothing about it just as they were then they're still expanding eastward towards russia just as they were then they're still standing up to russia now also in the cybersphere afghanistan

a lot of evolution there 18 years of stagnant stalemate what they've really adapted to is pumping out glamorous videos no argument there stella stuff nato is brain dead and those aren't my words their own from the lips of the french president little if you look any of this with a different nature is a collective defense alliance against who and what it is organizing who is our common enemy what are our common issues these are questions that deserve clarification mad cause has a vision a united european army a europe protected by europeans not americans little hard feelings i mean how would an american feel if the us was protected in the garrison by hundreds of thousands of foreign troops a european military that decides on its own who its enemies are. it's a little tough little can you is our enemy now russia or china is it the goal of

nato designate them as enemies i don't believe so our common enemy today nato is terrorism which has hit each of our countries but nato is nothing if not adaptable we heard many tod's now they're evolving to adapt to the fact that the us is tired of paying for everyone because everyone else is so successful that no one wants to foot the bill we work together and getting some of our allies to pay their fair share it's called burden sharing and as you know when i came it wasn't so good the united states plays for a very big share of nato a disproportionate share but in all seriousness there is something that has changed in the last 30 years it'll countries a buying russian weapons turkey spending billions on russian s 400 air defense systems and refusing to go and march up and down on russia's borders until nato

acknowledges that its members have actual problems. if some countries object to another country's security concerns of being a tourist in there will be no unity with the natives are nato the galaxy's greatest military alliance since the big bang it isn't gentleman all since the moment of creation probably arguing about it is well nato was created. to face the communist threat at this time and when u.s.s.r. was the sole. normally need to shoot had been dissolved too because it was the only and only target of nato. so today. nato members are wondering

what is the use of nato and the european countries. we are very quiet very tightly to be in there at the command of the united states or america because nato is. really commanded by the united states of. america small town in bolivia who was brutally assaulted by protesters a made an arrest triggered by the country's political crisis is refusing to resign patricia archer has now left hospital images of the attack on her emerged on social media revealing the violence towards politicians of the party of ousted leader is just a quick warning you may find the following seeds upset. at the thought of after setting the town hall on fire and as mob paraded her bare foot and cut her hair in public

spraying it read during a 4 hour ordeal she was made to sign a resignation letter told us she's still being treated for kidney damage sustained from the blows she received. what happened was disgusting i am now recovering from brean all damage that i suffered during the assault and i am still in pain the also cut off my hair. but they didn't change my view that everything was so confusing at that moment many of them covered their faces but we recognize some of them it was sad to see all those people attacking me it's been a difficult time for my children to see their mother in such a condition i don't want this to happen again. or believe is now facing political uncertainty the self-appointed right wing government of senator johnny 9 years has already been accused of abuses. as resigned after the country's military suggested he. step down i was on the back of a wave of protests following october's election and i gave

a vote for all his supporters see this though as a coup and during the unrest 34 people were killed and more than $800.00 injured patricia again says that the violence must stop. it will put as you're not at me i can't betray my people those who believe in me i would like to express my gratitude to the staff who have stayed with me and are dedicated to improving the city we will keep working to achieve our goals was that it was very difficult to return here to everything to me and it was terrible to see this city hall in such a state after all the work that was done to improve after everything that's happened how can it get any worse but people need to reflect and stop harming each other we need to restore unity i've never hurt anybody i've always worked for my city and i want people to take a step back and think you know they believe in people cannot leave like this. the black friday shopping extravaganza gets underway in shops all around the world

today. americans alone will spend around $87000000000.00 this time around chasing the best deals there is though a darker side to this retail festival he's done of course over explains. black friday is coming up big box retailers are gearing up for their annual mega sales super profits and consumer stampedes that will probably result in more than a few injuries in a georgia wal-mart to women fighting over pots and pans one refusing to let go. that wasn't brutal enough for you there is an even darker shade of black friday the kind that takes place on a darker shade of the internet called the dark web it's a place where black marketeers pursue huge. profits with alluringly low prices just as much as the legitimate guys probably more so and there are plenty of consumers

looking to buy those contraband goods society has become more digital and own with not so his crime despite their activities being on rule from an illegal criminals all returned in surprise in a sense i'm not looking to maximize the opportunities it's no small enterprise either last week the european union published a report about online narcotics sales in the u.k. it said 24000000 pounds sterling worth of the stuff was sold in 20172018 alone and on black friday everything from credit cards fake passports and illegal drugs are for sale at bargain bin prices and marketplaces that are specifically designed to be completely untraceable and while buying illegal items puts you at risk with the law you should also be aware of the very vendors you're buying from security experts are sounding the alarm and how you can avoid black friday. as we head into the holiday shopping season and notice there is

a new online scam that involves fake retail websites that look real but they are not scams come in many forms one popping up more and more is fraudulent websites that look exactly like the real thing no doubt the authorities will be hard at work trying to stop these dark web deals but what about the consequences that come with legal black friday consumerism for so long 'd the overproduction and overconsumption that characterizes the holiday have been cordially accepted as the norm no matter the frenzy that overtakes many or the damage it wreaks on the environment the latter has become so bad the french government is debating on banning black friday altogether but for now expect the usual frenzy for anybody who takes part in a black friday sale who wants to be part of this when ever there is a chance fraudulent activities especially with what we know about the dark web in certain facets of the internet and with. all of the hacking capabilities fire wall break ins and all this other stuff we need to be taking personal responsibility

individual responsibility and being sure that we are in charge of what happens to our finances and where we are putting our finances that it really takes advantage of the narrative that people have to shop on black friday that that is the only time you can get presents for your children for your family for your loved ones and your friends and so it really gives some of these hackers or these dark web or some of these false sites an opportunity really to to prey on these on these shopping sentiments and to try to find people who are going to be likely to give in to any deal that looks too good to be true b. and because we don't take the time to look into that especially on black friday when it went in and so it's not only a frenzy but there's a time constraint we have one hour we have a certain amount of time or it's going to be over you'll miss it forever and that's what gets people in these modes where they're not going to look it up they're not going to research to see which sites are legitimate which sites aren't and that's where they might be able to be taken advantage of. germany's harz quarters ruled

a man convicted of a double murder in the eighty's has the right to have his name and other details removed from web searches he was sentenced in 1902 and served 20 years in jail and the case was widely reported in the media his full name appears in online searches as a part of our daughter calls and he claims his right to privacy and ability to develop his personality have been violated with a right to be forgotten as a controversial subject that resulted in disputes between google and you and european law of course states that any european citizen can ask for links containing sensitive information to be raised from search engines now back in 24 to a court ruled that they could force search engines to do this and since then google says more than 800000 requests have been made to remove more than 3000000 web addresses critics though it's dangerous for moving information on former criminals we put the issue up for debate. well they certainly deserve

a 2nd chance but what they don't deserve is to have the historic crimes of they've gone wiped off that no one can find them this is clearly an attack on free speech freedom of information and it's international censorship because the the rights of those that he killed the families their victims should never be forgotten but what he wants to do he wants his past to be completely wiped clean but once you start to we erase historic events then you're. rewriting what historic what history was this person should have a slave why clean on the fact that the still showing up he's going to be discriminated against or it could push him back into a life of crime if he's not given the right to leave his old life but a lot behind if you go for a job you still got suits you still got to give your past previous convictions which will discriminate against you anyway but the thing is there's no point releasing the individual from prison if you still going to die if you still want to live in the past i'm all for giving a 2nd chance and like say the rehabilitation offenders should should help but

sometimes it's down to employers having confidence in the judicial system to corrective behavior for people to come out a changed person and sometimes you need confidence in businesses to give them a chance but the problem is when you start to hide your historic events then that adds another dimension to the people will look into employer if he's trying to hide this what else is he trying to hide this person trying to better themselves the trying not trying to raise the past the trying to be given a fair shot of the way of thinking you know what clean slate start again this is me now not that did you want to raise the past you can change the name always off the internet could just change the name if they want to eventually like let me. now i do want to repeat myself but the fact is you can change your name and you can just do exactly that anywhere. i change my name for example when your gold mine is called you can have a go at the argument with. no if you if you actually go for jobs where they need to

do certain disclosures because of the certain criteria you have to say if you change your name or you know by other names so that they can do a proper search yet serve you serve you that society you released as a new person with a with hopefully with a new mindset you should be given every opportunity so that your past is stricken from the record like ability to go in for jobs it will always come up so there's no getting away from it just about. being a new person produce produce projection yourself in a different lie and try to become a productive member of society the criminal may have served their time they may want to move on the families can't move on it's still there and they should never try and wipe it because if the try and hide their past what else are they going to try and hide in the future palestinian journalist has been severely injured during clashes in the west bank he told r.t. what happened we'll have more on that and other stories after the break.

industry is based on greed greed is based on this. rush to cumulate as much paper wealth as possible even though it's not genuine wealth actual money it's not gold like a warren buffett just hoards of money like an old brainy one hoard phone books and that doesn't credible damage because. it's into the population this notion of. most people think to stand out in this is this you need to be the 1st one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest read. truth to stand the news business you just need the right questions and get the right answer.

question. ok much the program a palestinian journalist has spoken to watty off toward as you know being shot in the by israeli forces this happened as he was covering clashes in the west bank. we covered a demonstration by people from serif here is the confiscation of land by israel the rally was suppressed and there was some clashes while we were covering the clashes i was shot in the eye by an israeli sniper i was wearing a reporter's uniform and anyone can identify me as a journalist from far away up by god i only lost my eye and not my life when i was shot i thought i was about to die i felt like my head was going to explode i

thought i was breathing my last and then my colleagues came to carry me away. from earth i'm on i have received that outpouring of support after the story went viral and this thing activists and journalists held demonstrations in bethlehem in solidarity with the injured colleague a couple of days after the incident in while the palestinian journalists and look at this says 60 journalists have been hit by live i mean within this year the majority of them guards. israeli police maintain they only use non-lethal force which was not directed at the photographer they also say his injury could have been caused by violent riders but more far more me thinks that what happened to him was no accident. really occupiers do not want the rest of the world to see the repression palestinian journalists are showing the world what the occupation is doing to our people the disregard for human rights palestinian journalists are exposing these crimes and palestinian journalists are being killed

summers have muslims your patient does not care or respect any other country the suppression of journalism with the collusion of some of the countries is enabling israel to escalate its crimes against the palestinians. police and the u.s. state of massachusetts have a new kind of canine colleague a highly advanced robotic one there's the machines were built by boston dynamics whose creations have already gone viral. well the boston dynamics robot is equipped with 360 degree cameras prompting some concerns over its possible high surveillance capabilities it can reach speeds of almost 2 meters per 2nd and its body is crash and water resistant and civil rights groups warn there's a lack of transparency regarding how such technologies are used the police defend

their use of new tech robot technology is a valuable tool for law enforcement because of its ability to provide situational awareness of potentially dangerous environments we just really don't know enough about how the state police are used in this and the technology that can be used in concert with a robotic system like this is almost limitless in terms of what kinds of surveillance and potentially even weaponization operations may be allowed we discussed earlier the robot controversy with a radio and t.v. host karen turk and former member of the f.b.i.'s joint terrorism task force even rogers. what concerns me and i think what's concerning a lot of the public about this is this is something that was done pretty secretive way and not only that there really aren't provisions in place for the public to really know what's happening with these robots i think this technology it's sort of the great unknown with a lot of this artificial intelligence that's kind of scary it's almost side 5 movie

that when you see this spot this boston scientific robot dog they're using i mean it's a little terrifying looking it reminds me of something you know straight out of terminator and i think that there needs to be some things in rules and and provisions in place before we introduce these new types of technology these concerns are nothing new. u.s. law enforcement has used robots for the past 10 or 15 years robots go into situations that give police the ability to look around corners to look through walls the motive is not to be secretive the motive is not to be utopian the motive is to save the lives of law enforcement officers the victims and even criminal suspects when a very serious criminal act is being committed. u.s. president donald trump has said that his administration will begin designating

mexican drug cartels a terrorist organizations he sought to better role in all cuban people trafficking and refused to rule out military action auntie's credible and picks up the story. for years the united states has been working to curb the narco gang chaos in mexico without much success. but now efforts against the drug gangs are taking a new twist are you going to designate those cartels in mexico as terror groups and start hitting them with drones and things like that but i don't want to say what i'm going to do but they will be designated words aren't meaningless we've

seen quick fire designations before the war on terror has included drone strikes military invasions and much more targets have included al qaida isis and boko harami in africa and the latest addition from trump the islamic revolutionary guard corps of iran the same precedent step led by the departments of state recognizes the reality that's iran is not so new a state sponsor of terrorism without the ology see actively participate in finances and promotes terrorism as a tool of statecraft the legal designation of state sponsor of terrorism has been used to target entire countries today the united states is designating north korea as a state sponsor of terrorists the iranian regime is the leading state sponsor of terror calls have been issued for white supremacy groups to be outlawed and labeled this terrorists do we need to consider designating some of these

entities as foreign terrorist organizations or is the current policy of the united states of america that we only designate muslim organizations as f.t.s. . if a white nationalist organization fits the criteria of an f t o trump even suggested that anti-fascist also join the list major consideration is being given tsunami on t. for an organization of terra poland is being watched very closely who free the maya will be able to properly do his job now donald trump seems to be applying a label to organized crime organizations operating south of the us border and as he said you sometimes need an army to defeat an army so perhaps it's not really a descriptive term after all it's just a legal one that opens the door to all kinds of new possibilities september the 11th crimes in the united states were crimes of terrorism for sure.

but then after the us invaded afghanistan and iraq it started calling rocky's who were trying to defend their country against the us and british invasion terrorists that really does not meet any objective definition of terrorism but that is precisely the way the us has used it the way israel uses it when palestinians try to defend their selves and their territories that is unfortunately the way the term has now come to be used. the us president doesn't trump has showed a picture of himself with the buff body you fictional books of rocky balboa incidents been rife with speculation about what exactly he intended with that message.

totally. i was. trying to photo of his head the best is going to be totally unclear i want. you. to. washington post claims without evidence that the real donald trump she had adopted by a true. or low. or low. i see both posted to social media around the same time today the chancellor went with a clip from her talk comfy speech in the digital age the president won with the photo shop of his head on the body of rocky balboa. leadership really does take many forms. this is all

wrong defeated russia continues to have trees. grew to. the. truth. that's all for this. time with the latest global news updates. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest on the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then.

we'll. leave.

'd you. when we have a new baby we will often hang a hang a blanket and the baby will go into there thinking it's the shape of the mother and put his head up 'd to suckle and i think it's the texture on the face and the fact that it's soft and we're trying to replicate to a point the mother so that he'll put his head out that that instinct to put his head out so we can get the bottle to get him to sing it. really. was being with us all 2 weeks to the day actually it was 2 weeks ago today that we rescued with hope and so we crossed the 10 day mark.
