hard to determine whether or not the future touched by terrorists and the money was imminent and was my team in agreement the owns are to both is a strong yes but it doesn't really matter because of his horrible possed we have trouble speaking up on social media and saying that it doesn't really matter whether or not qassam solomonic actually represented a threat to americans because he was a bad fellow who had a bad past since qassam solomonic was killed by the united states the united states has been emphasizing that qassam solomonic was bad that he represented an eminent threat to the united states we killed solid made the number one terrorist in the world by every bad 1st there's no terrorist except osama bin laden who has more american blood on his hands than did custom so the money there's a compelling case of an imminent threat imminent threat selami was plotting. imminent insidious or attacks on american diplomats and military personnel ever since the killing many both in the united states and around the world have

questioned whether it was the right thing to do many saw it as a hugely unnecessary escalation with the islamic republic of iran a completely unjustified killing of a top general of a foreign country trump administration systems that and lives were in danger and large scale attacks planned for other embassies and if those were planned why can't we reveal that to the american people would not help your case i can reveal that i believe it would have been for embassies however even trump's own secretary of defense mark esper doesn't exactly buy that but the president did say when there was a tangible he didn't cite a specific piece of evidence what he says he probably he believes are you saying that event one i didn't see one with regard to 4 embassies pretty dramatic statement from the american leader essentially saying that it doesn't matter if american lives were in the balance it was justified to kill the top general of a foreign country it's not necessary that they actually represent

a threat as long as they had a history of bad deeds or a bad past us administrations call it sees is not based on fact it's based on lies and misstatements and it's not based on the international rule of law it's based on 2 other things one is the view that the us is an exceptional country that it is it does not have it is above international law doesn't have to pay attention to the rules and it's also based on the false notion that the us is the only superpower in a uni polar worlds the us administration still act as if they are the cops of the world they are the bullies on the block and they can take whatever actions that they feel are appropriate for them irrespective of international law. in response to the killing of its top general in iran conducted multiple strikes. u.s. military bases in iraq over the past week the crisis that a passenger plane was accidentally shot down by to iran on january 8th with all 176

people on board killed helped provoke mass protests which the united states supported legal chief thinks washington is exploiting the tragedy. of all merely do you call your agents of the u.s. enforce and countries want to take advantage of this ukrainian plane crash to create insecurity inside the country in order to mislead the public opinion and right on this way our nations will not let them do it. alongside iran canada has also been left reeling from the tragedy 57 canadians were among the victims of the terror on plane crash last vigils have been held across the country with prime minister justin trudeau attending a memorial service in edmonton where there is a large iranian community while to rot has acknowledged full responsibility for the deadly event some canadians including the country's prime minister of blamed the united states tensions in part for the incident. think if there were no tensions

if there was no escalation recently in the region those canadians would be right the whole with their families international community is being very very clear both on needing to have a non-nuclear. while at the same time managing the tensions in the region that are brought about by us a narcissist in washington tears would accomplish once apart destabilizes the region us now and welcome everywhere in the area including iraq tensions escalated to feverish pitch the clash with damage of this irresponsible dangerous ill conceived behavior canadians needlessly lost their lives in the crossfire including the family of one of my m.l.f. colleagues his wife an 11 year old son we are mourning and i'm livid. human rights lawyer don kovalchuk believes the united states' turning up the heat in the region was a major factor behind the disaster. it is very clear it is the plane was found

during a time when iran was on high alert because the u.s. just killed their highest ranking military official general solomonic this was a case where the commanding control. in iran was not working properly and again most likely it wasn't working properly because people were under a panic from what happened in iraq with the killing of solomon with in found out later course this week that the u.s. tried to kill another general in yemen. you know so again this was a terrible accident a terrible tragedy. in clearly happened because. of the war tensions created by trouble because the u.s. has decided. first quite some time that international law applies to every

country in the world but the united states. 21 saudi servicemen being trained in the united states ought to be expelled from the country as follows a shooting at a naval base in florida back in december which claimed the lives of 3 american scientists attorney general william boggs announced that the pensacola by streets in was an act of terrorism kingdom of saudi arabia determined to disk material demonstrated conduct unbecoming an officer in the royal saudi air force and in the royal navy and the 21 cadet have been disenrolled from their training curriculum in the u.s. military and will be returned returning to saudi arabia later today the united states they are sending back those nearly 2 dozen saudi military students from a training program and sending them back again home to saudi arabia and about a dozen saudi trainees at the pensacola base they have been confined to their quarters as the f.b.i. was investigating the shooting as a potential terror attack and the pentagon initiated that review of all saudi

military trainees in the country numbering around get this $850.00 students now those 2 dozen servicemen they are not accused of aiding the 21 year old saudi air force lieutenant in last month's shooting that killed 3 and injured 8 but secretary of state william barr is calling the shooting at the naval air station in pensacola as an act of terrorism a bar says on september 11th the 21 year old gunman mohammad saeed ronnie who was an aviation student at the naval air station and member of the saudi air force he said he posted a message on social media stating quote the countdown has begun now bar added that ronnie also visited the $911.00 memorial in new york city in november and posted anti-american anti israeli messages on social media now one of those messages even being posted just 2 hours before the shooting on december 6th the justice department learned during their investigation that 21 members of the saudi military who were training here in the u.s.

possessed a derogatory material and. of those 2117 had social media profiles containing jihadi or anti-american content however bar says that there was no evidence that they were involved with any terrorist activity or groups also it's important to note 15 individuals were found to have accessed child pornography now bar says that saudi arabia determined the material demonstrated conduct unbecoming of an officer in the saudi royal air force and the royal navy and as a result those $21.00 cadets have been an in rolled and they are all returning to saudi arabia at this shooting has now made the pentagon halt any flight training for saudi military aviation students at 3 florida bases national security adviser robert o'brien said that u.s. officials and defense secretary marc asper are proceeding with caution saying quote pensacola showed that there are errors in the way that we vetted and out of an abundance of caution secretary asper has taken these actions to protect our servicemen and women middle east analysts so frankly things the education people

receive in the gulf kingdom and violence if you take a average saudi military officer i would actually wonder what wouldn't drive them to this extreme the. research by the institute for go fers has shown that the textbooks from 1st grade through 12th grade all the saudi public schools basically demonization of jews christians not wahhabi muslims apostates people who don't. observe the very strict dictates of the one of the religion in which is the saudi the main saudi religion. that is continued then in some of the official literature that the saudi military forces read there's a lot of reporting about the what you would call a blind spot at specific to the trumpet ministration but if you look back every administration has pretty much approached the saudi regime the same way there was very little pressure on them to change what they do on the ground in terms of basic

human rights in terms of the incitement that i mention in their textbooks in their defense establishment which u.s. officials have known about this incitement in the military establishment for years . swiss tennis star roger federer has found himself in a climate change bad books of teenage activist groups after she criticized this as a shin with the bank credit suisse now the financial institution has been investing big in new search for fossil fuel deposits with more and how eco shaming has become a crucial part of modern reality is r.t.c. to try and. do you know gratitude berg by her role as the world's number one a green activist or the number one shaming master well she's really been up to trying to perfect her reputation and both and it's paying off her influences skyrocketing womyn of the year in sweden person of the year in the time magazine i mean how many teens do you know that told off presidents and prime ministers like

that we are in the beginning of a mass extinction and what you can talk about isn't money and fame or tales of economic growth how do you. an example from just a couple of days ago a single read tweet by greg revived the scandal from 20 and made the man they called the greatest tennis player of all times find excuses for being partners with a bank here are the shaming lines she read tweet it since 2016 credit suisse has provided 57000000000 to companies looking for new fossil fuel deposits something that is utterly incompatible with climate action roger federer do you endorse this and so roger federer sponsorship deal with the swiss lender was back in the news and the sports all round mr nice guy had to reassure the public he cares for the

environment oh that mighty grow i'll show you more of how her shaming powers stretch far beyond the famous un walls but it's just that for now not everyone's so sure that anyone who deals with banks which give loans to non green industries should be publicly shamed public shaming and taking the right people to have stare an opinion away i think that's sort of stops is being human described but it doesn't get it so you want to see it the way he thinks he's allowed to it's a free will say meaning sophism don't. well together yes but it can be a discussion that's hard to say well maybe we should celebrities should be a bit more careful in picking this ponces ecological issues should people people's attention but not by publicly shaming an individual however it seems neither gratitude nor her fellow activists have any intention of scaling some of that shaming down yeah why do it if it works so well so what can you be shamed for

nowadays stay away from anything that house to do with fossil fuels even if you're choosing a bank shame on you if you fly never heard that was a sin well run has been peddling the flight shame movement on line for a while now why can't you stop flying on planes it's easy. how about you stay home and take some climate action instead climate compensation he's the planting of trees enough to excuse your flights while some folks of already tried to paralyze a london airport the world's aviation authorities even trying to stand up for its industry. we will launch a very very big can pay to explain would we have done would we're doing and when we intend to do in the future green activists or currently after german engineering giant siemens for go want to head to fulfill a contract with a coal mine in australia what for now coal or fossil fuels all together aren't

legal right and all makes you wonder what's next what you going to do when grettir comes for you well would get to the point went let's eat miners in the families are booed at for what they do for a living just short while ago we had at least here in germany eco shaming against people the with s u v's and often on we have it for a like people that are taking trips in aircraft seems to be a moving target say it seems to to go from plastic bags to beef to the trees to coal mining guess the people are so frustrated they feel they have to do something even if it's almost irrelevant at like in the case of zeman is right now who's accused of making railway signaling it couldn't which is being used by the mining company i mean that's a pretty big stretch to go from the zeman signaling equipment to say that has some

to do with a climate problem and then the forest fires a growing army of activists would say the whole of mankind has no other choice but to use some of gratis shaming skills if it once a future though there are still probably many of those who wouldn't mind a little more green tolerance for i'm master tune berg and co to france now where more than a 1000 health workers a threatening to quit unless the government makes concessions it's jews they this to use they doctors will hold media conferences across the country to express their anger including in paris we heard from a french doctor on the medical health work as the months 3 d. what the hospitals have been on strike for several months hospitals and emergency services units have been sounding the alarm but politically nothing has been done fast the problem from the point of view of medical ethics doctors must treat

patients but we don't have the necessary resources we have been killing our health care system for the past 20 or 30 years we have completely changed our control system on the moment all decisions are taken not by medics but other ministries of staff for managers and that has to change i came here from senegal where i did humanitarian work so i can tell you that in terms of health care france is becoming like a developing country. now among the demands being made or increased wages and hospital funding calls to reform the health system comes as part of a wide workers' strike that caused chaos nationwide at the end of 2019 and here's a look back in just the warning you may find some images distressing. q.

for this protester in paris island robert also known as the french spiderman climbed a skyscraper in the capital to draw attention to pension reform plans he says the country's oldest generation should be respected and be able to maintain a decent level of life. on the west coast of the united states citizens in the small town of tierra del mar have been taking a stand against facebook residents force their anger at the social media giant software company pick their home to install the new facility meant to support internet services around the globe.

too much there's going to be septic tanks to go out and there's going to be a lot of other problems what scares me is set a precedent that they can now buy and buy any piece of property along the or even coast. these new cable projects help people connect more efficiently they just told us that's only going to last 30 or short days then it'll be over so they don't really care without any permit without any permission.

why would a little little community like this have a big corporation move into a place where the residential lot. of the current leader of the u.s. democrats really battle to elect a candidate for this year's presidential election is causing panic in the party's ranks he's a familiar face too but bernie sanders being the front runner in the state of iowa has other candidates well read over whether he would cut in the race for the white house. he still needs to mind for some point he might need to rally millions of people to support someone else that's not easy you can't just flip a switch it's a process your supporters have to believe you're being genuine in your indorsement and you have to convince them bernie sanders is the democratic party's version of donald trump thank god we're smart enough to stop him we'd all be better served if you focused his disgruntled energy on donald trump. i was disappointed

to hear that bernie has said yourself to reach. well that was his biggest challenges are currently massachusetts senator elizabeth warren who as we heard there has been accusing him of some dirty tactics to undermine her chances she referred to the side of the campaign reportedly using a script that was just worn only appeals to the country's most affluent voters and as a tactic that's also people online. don't controversy in a new fund raising e-mail multimillionaire former harvard law professor renowned academic elizabeth warren claims her campaign is being smeared by standers volunteers noting that her base are generally more affluent and educated than of vermont senators poor lis she's desperate who knows would follow outreach to morrow the word is desired so not surprise she decided to bash sanders and go for this kind of tactics despicable but he has responded saying that he's never personally

said anything negative about elizabeth warren political analyst dakota lily believe sollars opponents are trying to silence him because he's agenda no longer correlates with the party's one. if you look at you know rank and file democrats if you look at people all across the country they're very interested in what bernie sanders that's say they're interested in medicare for all they're interested and federal jobs. you know they don't like these trade agreements that sanders and trump both speak out against but you see an effort by vs other democrats to push the conversation away from that and instead they attack sanders instead they attack any democrat that really goes against the grain you know you see other democrats running in the race like yang you saw williams saying you saw gathered all ostracize all shut out of debate. roadblocks thrown in their way all for daring to speak a different message that is contrary to the establishment democratic party courts.

french president some animal micron has wrapped up a meeting with the leaders of 5 so hell countries former french colonies in africa france and soldiers across the region are facing a growing number of the hardest attacks are also hostility from civilians who oppose their presence there despite that micron has now pledged more troops to reinforce operations in the region. knows it is and we have no choice we need results i have decided to engage additional combat capabilities $220.00 soldiers will reinforce bar construct his image artie's a shot of the minsk he's been following us how countries meeting for. a long awaited and important meeting over the g 5 hell leaders hail in france after the last meeting with mrs in december it comes amid so many questions about france's military presence in the region after protests of people have been

after the street saying that they don't call french troops there and accusing france of happy still colonial times and. thanks to the countries they said. this demonstration used to drive france territory because we don't like france's demagogic policy so we want strong and concrete support. this is not about denying the french or getting french people out we don't want french policy here in our country enough is enough. we took a look back over 7 years and found that the results were not good they have been more deaths so we are asking for a change in the system if the system isn't working it should be changed or president mark on his back in the press corps for its back criticism saying that french troops were only in the saw her region because they've been invited there by

the solver in countries themselves and he said that the troops were only there to fight terrorists and now other things that were discussed in this meeting with the concerns that operation bokken which is france's largest military operation a broad something that's been undergoing now for several years is actually something that's not producing credible results on the ground even the president said that the fight there is being paid for in blood not just blood of soldiers on the ground but also the blood of civilians now there were also questions raised about the credibility of the coalition those raised by the acting chair of the sawhill g 5 who said that in less results are showing very quickly people will be wondering whether the coalition has any credibility at all now this of course this meeting comes amid a recent spate of attacks on military personnel in the region since the beginning

of december more than a $170.00 troops have been killed in the region in those terrorist attacks and if we go back further there's also been the loss of life of french soldiers in the region with the. french soldiers are losing their lives after a helicopter crashed back in november so lots of intense issues of discussion but it looks like france will be reinforcing its deployment on the ground in the sar hell rather than rowing back the question now is how that is going to go down to the local audience and the people who've been protesting on the ground against that french deployment in the countries. russian troops in syria reportedly open up 3 humanitarian corridors in the region now of civilians stranded can reach a government controlled territory it doesn't help the suffering of plight of some though who are now able to leave one offered in syria has been taking in the
