iran and steps up its pressure sanctions government protests continue into iran over the accident. which killed everyone for. human rights organizations funding in east africa for infrastructure that could help stem the flow to europe claiming it's driving so-called modern day slavery. in directly supporting this project these are people who are working on these projects. that the caribbean nation of 10 years since it was hit by a deadly earthquake that claimed the lives of more than 200000 people hear from locals on how the country is still struggling to come to terms with the devastating

. for you know the government has never told us what to do with this children without parents. it was really tragic because you know to bury 3000 bodies at once isn't that simple. thanks for joining us and. welcome to the program. i will start with the iranian capital where police have to applaud. government protesters it ministrations iran is facing intense pressure right now after admitting that its forces accidentally shot down the ukrainian passenger plane on wednesday killing all 176 people on board mainly iranian nationals widespread mass visuals have been held victims.

steadily turned into anti-government rallies iran's armed forces admitted the airliner was mistakenly identified as a cruise missile defense systems tragedy took place shortly after to iran to launch strikes against 2 air bases housing u.s. forces in iraq that of course came in response to an american drone attack which left a senior iranian command of dead in baghdad on january 3rd officials in washington have spent the past 48 hours or so throwing their backing behind the protest. was among those to warn iran over its next moves. to the leaders of iran do not kill your protesters thousands have already been killed or imprisoned by you and the world is watching more importantly the usa is watching turn your internet back on and let reporters roam free stop the killing of your great iranian people the iranian people taking to the streets to protest against their oppressors rulers are incredibly brave america stands with them as they call out the cruel khomeini

regime i think the maxim pressure campaign is working the wall that's working there's no other way for them to get the money they need to fund the guard to fund their regime to fund their malign activities and you're seeing protests now breaking out across. according to a poll run by media in the united states a majority of americans disapprove of the way trump has so far handled the escalating crisis in the middle east it would seem instead of looking to calm the situation washington has opted to continue to apply maximum pressure on to iran it was a lot of takes up the story. as washington seated on the verge of an all out war with iran it looked like it had just stepped outside of its comfort zone the risk of plunging the middle east into yet a nother disastrous conflict was an obvious weight on the u.s. but now with the tensions easing america is back in familiar territory waging a political and economic campaign to force its rival into submission what is their

strategy post the confidence of the man in killing and post the ballistic missile attack on the united states this is our strategy we are diplomatically and economically isolating their regime in iran in till they behave like a normal nation washington has charted these waters through and through and it's not afraid to get creative and putting iran under pressure after admitting to accidentally downing a ukrainian jetliner with more than a 170 people on board to iran has seen a fresh outbreak in antigovernment protests and demonstrators the haven't suffered from any lack of support from the u.s. with donald trump even taking a crash course in persian to write this tweet to the brave long suffering people of iran i've stood with you since the beginning of my presidency and my administration will continue to stand with you we are following your protests closely and are inspired by your courage. translated no obstacles and no language barriers

can stand in the way of democracy and to make sure that nothing is lost in translation here washington is backing up its words with action a method tried and trusted sanctions we are announcing additional sanctions against the iranian regime as a result of these our actions we will cut off billions of dollars of support to the iranian regime israel as its tradition was quick to cheer it always does whenever things take a turn for the worse for iran i commend president from for imposing new and very harsh sanctions against this regime i must say that this was also doing close to the iranian decision to accelerate uranium enrichment i call on britain france and germany to join the american effort but few other nations share the excitement for iran a nation that spent decades under all flavors of sanctions being free of them is

more of a challenge actually the united states on me wants to think that sense that it's a superpower that it can do whatever it wants so it heard iran through sanctions that hurt china warfare and trade wars it tries to hurt russia through sanctions but ultimately what it does is that it brings these our countries closer to each other and other countries become more more more negative view of the u.s. government and i think in the in the long run what it does is that it diminishes the stature of the united states and the capability of the united states to maintain its had germany america's economic crusade against iran is rubbing europe the wrong way to the e.u. is in an ill tempered clash with washington over the iran nuclear deal which was derailed by the us we have been saying to pass that we continue saying that we regret the u.s. decision to withdraw from the deal. and we continue to. leading to this deal is

a key element of the low ball nuclear nonproliferation a future. and if you call for to the original stability. of germany's convinced that iran should acquire have nuclear weapons for this reason we will continue to employ all diplomatic means to keep this agreement alive it is certainly not perfect but it is an agreement and it comprises commitments by all sides. together we have made clear our regret and concern at the decision by the united states to draw from the j c p a way and to reimpose sanctions on iran and the us is dishing out new assurances it is ready to solve all this mess with words without preconditions even if we will meet with them where want to sit down discuss without precondition a new way forward a a series of steps by which iran becomes a more normal country but in the past few years with iran alone the us went back on its word had 0 interest in its allies concerns and assassinated

a high profile official the unilaterally branded terrorist just a few months before so the u.s. can talk up diplomacy for sure they're one of the best at it you do have a hard time to find a nother country with a case of selective amnesia this severe for the promises it had made. a huge farms to boost areas in africa are now being compared to driving slavery that's the claim at least being made by human rights organizations against the e.u.'s infrastructure project in eritrea the bid to improve the eastern african nation is now being described as years of forced labor parties to tailor reports. if you've been honored to kathy as your tieback harboring a hidden disease is your neighbor planning on eating your pet pony don't worry to ease got a regulation for everything but according to human rights organizations it's failed miserably to regulate. it's own behavior and it all started with an apparently

innocent bed to boost security and eritrea will launching $20000000.00 euro program to rebuild the roads connecting both countries this will boost straight consolidate stability and have good benefits for the citizens of both countries through the gratian of sustainable growth and jobs millions of dollars went on a quit meant materials to build a highway that was billed as a road to peace and prosperity so far so good unless of course you're the one put to work on this great collaboration because the chances are you're forced conscript the african nation has compulsory national service that used to last for 18 months but now sees people trapped in for over 20 years it's a practice it's been likened by human rights organizations the un and the european parliament to mass enslavement conscripts compared national service to modern day slavery saying this for torture and other ill treatment which we rest in like basic

sanitation and hygiene form a conscript 72 hour weeks and harsh conditions with no food and pay equivalent to $17.00 a month as one of the main reasons eritrea is called the world's fastest emptying country as young men continue their mass exodus but despite knowing conscripts were being used generally the delicate situation and a country that was a lot in a guerrilla war for 3 decades the e.u. says that really had no idea that untoward things were going on. the e.u. does not pay for labor under this project the project only covers the procurement of materials and equipment to support the rehabilitation of roads in fact the e.u. doesn't even have an office in eritrea to monitor this ongoing project instead it relies on local authorities the agency is not monitoring the implementation of the project the project is carried out by the government and progress is monitored by the ministry of public works the e.u.

is in trusting its project to an arm of the government which is internationally slammed as one of the world's worst human rights abuses which the u.n. describes as authoritarian and repressive and which lived under a un sanctions for 9 years it's almost as if the e.u. has something at stake here other than creating great roads of course like stemming the tide of migrants for example because 2016. 1000 eritreans apply for asylum in the bloc so yes this e.u. project will lift the local economy and bring peace but crucially it will create jobs and that will keep eritreans in the homeland and not crossing on both to european shorts so really what's a spot of slave labor in far off lands. in directly supporting this project by. material to help build the road problem is that what they need to make sure is that any support going to eritrea is not. some

mentoring this incredibly repressive system the road will be built to a large extent by forced labor by national service conscript and there are trends a land by the way which happens to be one of the most strategic areas in the world its coast runs along the red sea which is a key link between europe and asia it's also an ideal access point to emerging african markets with low labor costs and it's a natural resource gold. with gas gold oil zinc you name it eritrea's got it there's a one to them the e.u. u.s. and china has sort of jostling for power in the region eritrea is obviously placed in a very strategic location along the red sea it is the access to the sea of ethiopia and from the european point of view it is obviously one of the countries which many asylum seekers here in europe are coming from and they're coming and they're

fleeing because of the human rights situation on the ground i mean many of those children and they're fleeing because they don't want to be conscripted into this very abusive repressive national service systems and according to un statistics about 10 percent of the population are refugees or simon seekers outside of eritrea so it seems that when you've got something to gain it's easier to be anonymous than your own employment law. has been a decade since the caribbean nation of haiti you were left devastated by an earthquake that killed hundreds of thousands of people locals say the consequences of one of the most deadly natural disasters are still being felt today. for. the.

movie. it's about the slope it. does at the back here well there's people here do it for the help they need it. to the family that. wants to they want to buy the buildings and i saw several people that as if they never managed to get to go around me all day trying to escape but they couldn't. sleep. when not enough was it was rude because you know to be worth 3000 but is that once

one thing that isn't that simple. please. please. please please please man there i was crying and screaming if only you could see his photo he was such a good boy. to . look for the letters so steve has never told us what to do we've been left. certain children without parents. that i had the south or threat of child abuse across the globe could go could be down to legal loopholes or legislation look at

that warning for the british government to stop the spread. join me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. is you'll be a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation and unity. are you going the right way or are you being.

what is true what is. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us and the. already made in the shallow. welcome back to the program the university of british columbia in canada is facing a free speech scandal and a lawsuit after the institution opted to cancel an event shed yule for the end of the month over what it called safety and security concerns was intended to give a platform to a controversial us journalist to talk about anti for groups i left to 16 was a go has become a target for some activists and the legal team are now looking into the cancellation after contracts was signed between the university and the free speech

club now the director of the group has described it as giving those threatening violence the illusion of power. it's always been an option of hiring our own security working with police ensuring safety they wouldn't even allow us to have that option this time they said look security can't even handle the protesters they're getting more and more violent and that's not even an option also we're just going to help break cancel the school has told us look just don't bring anybody controversial and they will protest and you'll have no problems but actually what is happening it's. they're emboldening these protesters who are violent and they're giving the illusion of power and if they have power no doubt they'll use it and abuse it at this point we're probably going to take the school to court it's going to go to the supreme court and we believe that the law is on our side so when the judge when the supreme court rules that we are correct we will bring back the speaker to the school and will make it a vent that is 10 times bigger because we can because that is what free speech is

about and one didn't go straight to the british columbia university should not have given in to the n.t. for threats but institution as the friend it is this is explaining the journalists events was a potential target the reason for the cancellation is the concern about safety and security of our campus community the appropriate response to violent extremists who threaten access to information in the academy is not to give in to their demands by canceling the event. comes with a protest as being involved in a number of violent incidents at that same university already. and we heard from the director of the free speech club again he told us free speech is being stifled in institutions and on the streets of kind of. this isn't just

happening with us it's happening all over the country it's a new trend we're publicly funded institutions think that they can just deny the right to free speech when they are taking money from the government they are part of the public sphere the suppression of free speech is not only happening on the institutional level but it's also happening on the streets with these violent protesters society is so divided politically that now we have our own perceptions of what is and isn't free speech that's where the real problem comes from our side has this perception of them in their perception and it's become so tribal politically we're so divided but we're breaking up into these little boys and these little echo chambers and that is where the issue is in other words we're basically speaking a different language. you can government does facing pressure to apply greater foreign travel restrictions to known sex offenders the concern was part of a report turned it over to m.p.'s in westminster that followed an independent

inquiry into child sex abuse has claimed legal gaps exist which leave youngsters all around the world vulnerable to predators shoddy edwards dusty has more. lock them up and throw away the key it's an argument you'll often hear from people when it comes to child abusers and while the u.k. has come down on child abuse here in britain its legal system may be failing young says a brought that's because no british sex offenders and suspects prosecuted for such crimes are still able to travel with some of them re-offending overseas in fact of the near 6000 sexual harm prevention orders impose in england and wales in the last few years only 11 also has foreign travel restrictions added meaning of all the registered sex offenders on record only around 0.2 percent have had their rights to foreign travel stopped and according to the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse that could be having a devastating impact the extent to that now you. can't sit with a list of them. oh disaster. which must be engine.

system. really. and this is. the inquiry was given evidence of abuse by british travelers in countries ranging from kenya all the way to the philippines the report also found that abuses target disadvantaged families where relatives act as facilitators often financial poverty plays a key factor there's also areas to can also pose a particular risk last year oxfam stocks were accused of sexually exploiting children in the haiti following devastating earthquakes and 2010 the issue that has been raised by the child abuse inquiry is an old one and has historically been going on for decades we have allowed people with child abuse convictions to travel out of the country and often times unless they're arrested in the destination country for the same issue then they go completely undetected the problem is we

don't have a grip on child abuse in the u.k. if we did then we would be able to manage our paedophiles much better than we currently are not child abuse s. we need not just to be looking at people who are going to be arrested in another country or indeed have been arrested in the country but we need to properly see who is leaving the country and who is coming into the country and if they have child abuse convictions we must see that very seriously indeed high profile cases were highlighted in the report including shamed rock star gary getter who abused young girls in asia even after being convicted in the u.k. of possessing indecent images of children a few years beforehand and of course the case of sara paedophile dubbed britain's west richard hochul is equally as harrowing after he was convicted in 2016 of 71 counts of serious sexual assaults against children aged from just 6 months to 12 years while he was working as a teacher in malaysia now the report concluded with recommendations for the government and topping the list was restricting foreign travel of sex offenders to

ensure that youngsters and not just those in the u.k. are out of harms way. some of the other big stories for on the globe for you now including alaska where. she was rescued on thursday after surviving weeks in remote freezing well this his home in this. snow cave. goods until he was found. half a 1000000 people in the philippines have to flee their homes after the taal volcano erupted near the capital manila lava could be seen gushing from. the services of the capital's international airport the scientists in the country are warning the threat level is high and explosive eruption could happen in the coming days. look at the commercial pet food industry for all u.k. viewers it's going on the ground.

put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be present. to going to be for us this is what. can't be good. interested in the water. in the united states presidential candidates debate the future of the u.s. and the world. stacy herbert digging into the burning questions of this election cycle. every week. student debt trade wars corporate money universal basic. and more. with what's front running this

sunday exclusively on. you know world big. lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to get the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter 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. news in my. brain think about live a time of our visit as if that were in the sense of on that. one

when one in the side of the. sea in the following to him but i'm before. him by the. body i'm now move on.

as of 2013 the pet food industry was dominated by only 5 more titan glamour companies. you know when a consumer wants into a store it's easy to assume that there is a vast array of choices for their dog or cat and the ability to choose that one perfect food. but just how different are these choices and what's really going on inside of those bags is what's inside really as healthy as the shiny side labeling would have you believe. to.

pay mr sharon back or in an integrative veterinarian here in bourbonnais illinois. this is a commercially available raw food diet this is what i am i'm also going to give the boys in a. great 1st approach. is it a time for dire. time is it. fair to . so there's a problem in the pet food industry and most pet owners aren't aware that there's a problem and unless you have an interest in digging deeper and finding out what those issues are you can go through your whole life eating the exact same food assuming what you're doing is healthier pat and once you start digging the evidence

becomes overwhelming that the industry has significant issues. the human. animal relationship is deeply embedded in our society. it is estimated that 80000000 dogs are in the united states with 96000000 cats. americans alone spin an estimated $60000000000.00 on pet expenses every year and that number is growing exponentially. it's always a 1st all the buy something your pet will like something that will make them happy and live a healthy life we give them exercise clean water and lots of love. we've always purchased food from a grocery store or a pet food store that provided convenience for the promise of nutrition in familiarity with the brand. the industry at large survive for nearly 100 years without a single thought from.
