terror group islamic state says it carried out friday stopping a tie in london which left people dead the proper treatment was no. democrat supporting for the proof republican fox news t.v. network to be registered as a foreign agent. and gone right to do so wrong are still demanded says action from the government 2 months off to a massive chemical fractured left a toxic cloud over that city.

it's 2 pm sunday and it's the weekly hit on all its international the look at the news that grabbed headlines throughout the week welcome to the program i'm start with probably the biggest story of the week the terrorist group islamic state says it carried out friday's stop and central london 2 people were killed in the attack and 3 others injured the puppetry to time for previous terrorist offenses before being freed on license last year the british prime minister has criticised the practice of automatic release. clear to me that. this guy was out. half of his sentence was out on automatic early release and i have long said that this system simply isn't working it does not make sense for us as a society to put it in putting terrorist people who have convicted of terrorist

offenses a serious violent offenses out on early release. 28 year old a small con was released from prison last december he was jailed for planning a bomb attack on the london stock exchange and 2010 his all the targets back then reportedly included the u.s. embassy and boris johnson at the time the mayor of london khan was still wearing his electronic tag when he carried out friday's attack. videos showing the aftermath of the stopping have been posted on social media as you can see on your screen some civilians wrestled with the killer pinning him to the ground one man even managed to save seize a knife from the terrorist who was then shot dead by police eyewitnesses describe what they saw. rushing people falling over each other matching both of the talking . heads keep it away people really not making the barrios for the big people rushing around willy holding every. little thing. the comic.

con accountant walker what do you do something going on. something everybody said go down into the basement it was extremely frightening because you don't know what to do you know you can't just i don't want to do think twice gunshots going off in my again it's the fos terrorist attack on british soil since boris johnson became pm they're not unfortunately in recent u.k. history.

for more insight we discussed the incident with form up british intelligence officer the former head of the u.k.'s national counterterrorism security office chris phillips. it's turned out that after all these so-called lone wolf attacks these lone wolves have indeed already been known to the intelligence agencies and police and yet have not been prevented from carrying out the attacks happened and yet in terms of dropping the ball in this case i can't imagine a more egregious example where someone should be monitored on a day to day basis by the authorities after he's been released from prison so i think this is a major concern and there are some serious questions our intelligence agencies in the west need to answer they have said for the last few years that they need all

these new laws they need all these new secret powers to snoop on all our e-mails our electronic communications to protect us from terrorists and yet and yet all these people already know or at least seem to still get away with carrying out attacks now it's it's a real problem for a criminal justice system which is not doing what it should do when that's keeping the public for some reason our criminal justice system judges and the way our system works allows people out halfway through the sentence which means bible 6 years after e committed this apparent he was back on the streets and he was still radicalized so very difficult for the police to to monitor people like this in the course of the just want to pick up a knife pretty much impossible to stop as well so so the criminal justice system here is at fault. and some tragic news from russia 9000 people have been killed and 13 others injured in a bus crash in the country's east 2 children are among the dead the bass carrying

43 passengers fell off the bridge into a river some passengers were trapped inside russia's investigative committee has launched a probe into the cause of the accident preliminary report suggests the bus had blown a tire needing to the driver losing control of the vehicle. and now to the u.s. where democrats have labeled fox news an existential threat to the u.s. describing it as a russian stooge and sama now calling for the channel to register as a foreign agent fox news should register with far as an agent of the russian federation if it's going to peddle the kremlin's agenda and propaganda while hurting u.s. national security interests then it should be treated the same as our t. and who is nick the fox news t.v. network is known to appeal to conservative americans and often challenges the common us mainstream media narrative for example regarding the alleged chemical

attack in the syrian city of duma in 2017 which the west blames on the syrians but syrian president assad now here's what triggered the latest democrat campaign against fox news i don't know i don't care about you know you have a conflict between ukraine and russia areas like why should i run for russia with folks news host says he roots for russia against the west he said the quote part out loud this clip is just one more exhibit supporting the case that it's no longer left vs right but democracy versus authoritarianism i think many still underestimate the threat to the republic at this point fox is openly fascist d.n.d. g.o.p. are existential threats to the usa it's not the only case of pro republican media being targeted by democrats earlier in september a conservative one america news filed a defamation lawsuit against him s. and b. c. and its host rachel maddow it demands more than $10000000.00 in compensation after

she called it paid russian propaganda chadwick moore he's a columnist at spectator usa says that insinuating a russian affiliation is a go to democrat strategy these days. it's just not the smear it's then that's all it is and they make these outrageous claims with absolutely no backing your no support about being a foreign agent and of course the intent is not to actually get these organizations to register as foreign agents that's absurd the intent is to just plant this seed to plant this ridiculous notion and which they've been doing all along they've been doing this with the russian gates a lot that blew up in their face earlier this year and now with the peace right hearings which is also blown up in their face democratic party and the left used to be the party of free speech the priest speech movement was started in the 1960 s. by left wing activists and and they're also the anti-war movement and they used to be the party of anti-war and we've seen this dramatic shift the entire paradigm has

been flipped on its head free speech and war and foreign relations is just 2 of those biggest issues the democrat party of the left is fundamentally anti free speech meanwhile the washington post a stop to that same crusade against republicans bonding them russian propagandists bought has not not gaza has not space and boils down to some muddled thinking about events in ukraine. we're going to go in a journey you and i a trip into another dimension a magical place written in the rated by the washington post where there are assuming the russian agents in the united states they will soon outnumber americans themselves president trump has been disloyal to the united states not only and given russia a leg up in its war against ukraine but also in broadcasting his propaganda and for that republicans are just as guilty like to point out that it was the democrats who

banned the sale of lethal weapons to ukraine and republicans who gave you create hundreds of millions of dollars in those weapons but what's the point there's no piercing this bubble of unreality an anomaly in the space time continuum of common sense that the washington post exists in it is up to means to media to directly challenge republicans who yes engage in un-american activity there deliberately assisted in a russian propaganda operation in this wondrous realm that jennifer rubin has brought to life everyone who disagrees with her is a traitor a traitor as anyone who mentions that democrats accepted foreign meddling in the election willfully eagerly accepted foreign help to try to get clinton elected democrats cooperated and ukrainian election meddling official show the surprising lack of interest and indications of ukrainian election meddling that deeply

concerned the president whose pleasure they serve during the election ukraine released damning information about trump's then campaign head paul manifold causing huge damage to the tycoon in fact we have would you sit nick a ukrainian official using his powers of office then bragging about quote helping. hillary. little more i didn't help him trump i helped hillary it would be better for us a fact that ukraine's courts ruled to be interference election meddling ukraine's own courts said that but in jennifer's magical kingdom this isn't true she crossed out the old you his admission the court ruling and cited to reports that it's all a russian psyop and because she crossed it out it's no longer true just because

you try proving her wrong if congressional republicans have evidence our intelligence community is wrong they need to present it otherwise they need to be called out for deliberately assistant hostile foreign power evidence is something that supports jennifer's point of view if it doesn't it isn't evidence see when special counsel robert mueller root in his report that russian hackers seemingly and apparently quoted from the report hacked hillary's servers that's evidence but when you give her or her car in the recording a confession and a court ruling you're an american in the course of this investigation i would ask that you please not from a politically driven false or clear interests so if newman is good enough for you let me do him some justice it appears the jennifer rubin is a 2 faced hypocrite allegedly she may also be

a foreign agent it's she that she and her have done and are doing more damage to america as a nation than anyone else after all and correct me if i'm wrong but isn't rabidly undermining the us government spreading fear and hate on an industrial scale to every american home smearing half your country is traitors isn't that about as un-american as you can be. a chemical plant in southeast texas was hit by 2 major explosions on wednesday the blast happened. and caused extensive damage.

on friday an evacuation order for more than $50000.00 residents was lifted as the fire had been contained but it is still active in some areas and that is smoke and the officials say it's hard to say when it will be fully extinguished we spoke to a local resident who told us about the extent of the damage to nearby homes our house was actually really damaged all the garage doors pretty much all of the doors down the middle all the windows blew out some of the roof you know. so we had a lot of it you hear about the explosions but and it's half and around the area before but not to this extent it's never affected around the refineries i

definitely did not expect you know something like this that happened but i guess it is good to get the area of the refinery and by the t.p.c. great produces thousands of tons of chemical and petroleum based products health an environmental component of the to cull says a substantial investigation is needed. and really quite toxic compounds are used on this site and the manufacturers on this site i think that quite the really quite a lot of investigation will be needed just to determine the background toxicity in the local area following this instance local community will have a love hate relationship with this plant these plants are responsible for quite a lot of wealth in this area they provide a huge amount of employment they are the economic lifeblood of this golden triangle area but at the same time there are these pollution incidents i think that this incident may actually bring quite a lot of additional political pressure on to the trumpet ministration not to cut

the resources of the e.p.a. as it's intending to do. and it's 2 months since and another massive fire engulfed a chemical factory in the french city of rome local residents fair for their health and took to the streets demanding transparency it was done of reports. we're working with a crowd of well it looks like a 100 maybe a bit more i can't really see all the way to the end of this call him through on and indeed there are concerned people from all really the whole society spectrum is here all of them are indeed demanding transparency from the government and from lubrizol the company the chemical plant that while of that released all these chemicals into into the atmosphere some 2 months ago.

many of the locals complained about the burning sensation in their throat for instance or about feeling nauseous after the release of the chemical just simply because of breathing the contaminated air and they're accusing the government of failing to release the air samples they which were taken right after the fire and the government's position and look results position has been that while there was no immediate health threat that all of those effects would pass and that there was no environmental impact but people here are not buying this i found this in my garden and every day i can find it it comes from the new ways early. prior and so my children's doesn't go in the garden so that's that's why i am i am very very angry and i created this this exhibit to show that we are boring about people who we money and how our life are becoming like that.

removed through the surgery this was right we want the truth to be revealed about what happened in the loopers over accidents because now everyone's just passing the buck and no one wants to take responsibility and the truth about the accident has not been established just today we should have health monitoring which we currently don't we. tonight more extensive blood tests we expect resignations over this. people are concerned about the health but it wasn't just about that local businesses local farmers suffered immensely for instance some 1800 farmers who were banned from harvesting their own crop by the french government because all of that well because because of the fears of contamination so you can clearly see why people here are demanding more transparency and they would want an in-depth look as to what's going on that lubrizol plant. still to come with the next attack and the

question of political instability and. works playfield and public consuming it by rivals about president overall is that story up to a short break. you know world's big partners. and it's time to wait to dig deeper to get the stories that make street 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 for watching closely watching the hawks. the world is driven by dreamers shaped by the one percent of those great.

things. we dare to ask. welcome back and let's start with a country that's been dominating headlines in recent times the mayor of a small town in bolivia who was brutally assaulted by entourages protest as mitt on the rest triggered by the country's political crisis says she will not leave her post a warning you may find the following scenes upsetting images of the attack on her

on social media revealing the violence towards politicians of the party of ousted leader. at the start of november off to setting the town. and the parade. and public sprayed at red during the deal she was made to kneel and sign a resignation that patricia archie has now left hospital though she told us she's still being treated for the kidney damage sustained from the blows she received. when will what happened was disgusting i am now recovering from renal damage that i suffered during the assault and i'm still in pain the also cut off my hair. but they can change my views everything was so confusing at that moment many of them covered their faces when we recognized 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. olivia is now facing political

uncertainty the self-appointed right wing government of sanitation and yes has already been accused of abuse even rod has resigned after weeks of protests over allegations of voter forward while his supporters protest what they see as a coup during the country's post-election unrest 34 people were killed and more than 800 injured patricia says that the violence must stop. 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 all our goals it was very difficult to return here after everything the deed to me and it was terrible to see this city hall in such a state after all the work that was done to improve it after everything that's happened how can it get any worse 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 the believe in people cannot live like this. and finally today december marks walled aids day it's dedicated to raising awareness to help fight hiv the virus that causes the disease and russia there's still a lot of stigma on conspiracy theories surrounding aids r.t. has been exploring the issue with john list on talk of christophe's here's a short preview but if you're interested you can always watch the full version on our you tube channel. it was very clear watching it. with a. critic of the new people here when you're on usual. when you've only.

just. sort of over the top of which mistreats i'm going to be if you. look at the moment. and you can you please. visit your. here's a. little note that you feel good. just for those who just resent. it is that we must look at all we've got. and there. was some of them. just like. it was throwing every train of mr nutrition it would make him wince. you know when you go. each. for. votes that get all of you. see me that. you're. watching.

what you. think. that's all from me for now you can always check out our website to tell us and all of our stories and much more coming your way now to. join me every so. only alex i'm i'm sure and i'll be speaking to just the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. young elephants have come to us. especially brutal putting incidents because sadly

the baby elephants often do see their mothers be killed but also be cut up and voted to. leave. i do believe the elephant smile i see it in these little ones they hold facial expression changes. the game. put on a welcome to worlds apart 3 years after the election of donald trump he's political opponents have spare no effort in trying to truncate his presidency from the

kremlin agent smear it's you the abuser of office charge nothing half so far proven strong enough to shorten his 1st term will the democrats attempt more of the same to prevent tron from running again to discuss that i'm now joined by admit 3 that needs a russian journalist and an avid trumpet watcher it is good to see in the studio thank you very much for coming it's great to be here now i know that you do not consider yourself to be trump fan i heard you say that some of the things that. he said about the women you find you personally find disgusting in the if this is not the kind of impression you gave once you learned about he's victory 3 years ago. that reaction was by the way caught on camera and became famous. for.

what we are the champions. wife of whom and who are we are we the experts that 'd predicted the victory of doug and sean planned to solve and succeed because whatever you know people in washington think it was really a great struggle for russian and international experts. to really examine the american situation in 2016 and the months of the emergence of these populist movements say in europe nobody believed everybody said just relax business as usual we'll continue and we try to persuade people that business unusual in the world is over and trump is just a symptom is that when we take a saying is that this quote unquote joyous celebration is not about your personal sympathy that you did not rule it in the slightest bit for him or what he may represent in global politics yes i did that you actually like. actually what he

represents for the present to change so i don't see that chomp as a victory of old good or all bad that stuff the point that's not that's not about expertise but the change in the world he's a symptom and the things that we predicted it and we made a certain traditions that one predictions had one that was the main thing about that celebrity now as far as i understand this was you with your friends having good time none of your friends from what i understand as. russian government official in the yellow c.n.n. and many other western that played that video making that appear as if it was almost the official russian reaction from what you're remember of baghdad how did the kremlin react to the election of dawn chimed and was it just as ecstatic as you appeared to be well i never been to too kremlin actually so i'm sure you are

watching not only the air and political scene that also the russian what i can see about russian expertise which is really close to kremlin not like me but the really close to kremlin they war just so appalled you know they they didn't didn't know what to see because they were writing analysis who not only in newspapers and outlets but also are closed memos to kremlin they were all writing that hillary clinton will win and so we should supreme our politics these this way and that way and one all this all these charm thing came out of course of 1st they were just astonished surprised and they didn't know what to do that was the 1st reaction of the program and the expertise i think it's fair to say that at that time there weren't many clinton fans in this city and madame clinton the usually likes to say that you know putin hates her because she supported democracy and all the other

. things i wonder if you believe that's.
