deal of the century sparked outrage and protests across the middle east with claims the proposed roadmap to end the israeli palestinian conflict only fade this television. on the palestinian leadership spurned strumpets plan calling it the slap of the century the u.s. ambassador to israel has made it clear the palestinian viewpoint is not something that will be taken into account. it doesn't matter what the palestinian saying we're going to keep this open for them and that's what we want. another week another protest unions are back on the streets of paris still anger that president micron's pension reform plans this protest spillover into violence in the french

camp. the world can see this is asking international. it was meant to be donald trump's fail safe plan to bring peace to the middle east just a day after he lifted the lid on his so-called deal of the century outrage among arab nations is prompting fears of a new intifada against israel hundreds of song the streets of jordan garza the west bank and even turkey and rage that washington's actions are sitting in president has flat out rejected the deal saying it's biased towards israel although trump insists the it is a win win solution. my vision presents a win win opportunity for both was.

a realistic 2 state solution that resolves the risks of palestinian statehood to israel's security was i. it's a great plan freule. it's a great plan for peace. i was. trying to plan for jerusalem to be israel's undivided capital is already a nonstarter for palestine israel would also get to make control over security and most palestinian resources palestine would stay fully demilitarized israel could destroy any facility for production of banned weapons and would be barred from security or diplomatic arrangements with other countries without israeli approval but it would get a $50000000000.00 aid package. and palestine would consist of the

west bank and gaza west bank gaza way down here almost entirely separated from each other they would be connected by roads they've been represented by lines here on the map provided and also totals and bridges there shown by the circles although actually there yet to be built the palestinian state itself would get a capital it would lie on the outskirts of east jerusalem it's not specified exactly where in theory up here somewhere the us ambassador to israel claims it doesn't matter though that palestine has rejected the deal right now. it doesn't matter what the palestinians say we're going to keep this option open for them for 4 years that's what we want israel is committed to negotiating a 2 state solution with the palestinians over the next 4 years even if the palestinians rejected in the short run. as mentioned the palestinian state would get a capital in theory on the outskirts of east jerusalem has more. well the reaction

has been overwhelmingly negative we've heard from the palestinian president mahmoud abbas saying a 1000 knows staying with the palestinian people and the issue of jerusalem cannot be bought and far from this being the deal of the same tree as the american president likes to put it this is a deal that deserves to be in the trash bin of history i would like to say to do a trump and netanyahu that jerusalem is not for sale and all our rights are not for sale and not for bargaining your conspiracy deal won't pass when we accept a state without jerusalem it is impossible for any palestinian child or arab or christian to accept this this is why we told them from the beginning you know now the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says that he believes abu dis which is a neighborhood on the outskirts of east jerusalem will become the future capital of a palestinian state but this is what critics are accusing largely of and that is taking me is waiving position on major issues now we have heard from

a number of arab states particularly turkey and iran this is an expression plan aiming at usurping palestinian learned and killing the 2 state solution jerusalem is old red line we won't allow steps to legitimize israel's occupation and oppression this is a deal made between the zionist regime and america interaction with the palestinians is not on its agenda this is not a plan of peace and prosperity but a plan with imposition and sanctions awaiting another. now the iranian foreign minister as every of has said that this is the dream project of a bankruptcy what a real estate developer he also says that it is a nightmare for both the region and the world the reaction from european states has been somewhat more neutral we hear from the european union saying that they will study and assess the proposals the. kingdom saying that it could be

a step in the positive direction the united nations however has said that it remains committed to a 2 state solution that would see israel and palestine within $967.00 borders now a day of rage has been called for today by the palestinian leadership already yesterday in the run up to the announcement and the only always have followed we did see protesters out in the streets of gaza and the west bank burning the american israeli flag and also pictures obviously prime minister and the american president donald trump so no doubt we are on standby for scenes like that unfolding again today and in the coming days and at the same time we've heard from the israeli prime minister that at his sunday cabinet meeting he will push to end next both the jordan valley and settlements in the west bank unless is even with after the palestinians agreed to the deal he says that he can go ahead and do this so the frustration the anger the disappointment and perhaps even the hatred on the streets of palestine and in many countries across the world here in the me jen we are

witnessing this and to intensify and quote the u.s. embassy has been hit and its diplomats and embassy workers from visiting the old city of jerusalem the west bank and gaza out of security concerns. and a major blow to u.s. efforts britain has approved the participation of chinese tech jobs while weigh in its new 5 g. cellular network washington had applied heavy pressure to block the company's involvement beijing by welcomed the u.k. decision this is the place the decision will result you know more divorced more secure at the mall cost effective infrastructure so it's a treat for the future why were. they drop it we may not do business with it all because it is american security threat the united states has also been very clear with our security partners on the threat posed by the chinese government can rightfully demand access to data flowing through one way and see the systems. why

would anyone grant such power to regime that has already grossly violated cyberspace. the terms of ministration alleges beijing could use the equipment the spying the tech giant however consistently denied that it would allow the chinese government to do so like sighs a professor of cyber security at the u. case university of central lancashire says britain has to work with well wait like it or not. at the end of the day the u.k. needs 5 g. technologies. is already involved in delivering some of the 3 g. or 4 g. technologies over the last 15 years in the case it will make sense for them to deploy some of their 5 g. technologies i think that's where the decision is coming from from technological point to view. we need to be deployed we need that to be done as soon as possible with the best quality possible with combine the different prices that will make the

u.k. is more attractive for business and will continue its sleeping position you know in the world. the mockery on c.n.n. of donald trump supporters could buy mild reading from story after the break. join me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to guest on the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you then.

welcome back the u.s. secretary of state has arrived in london to meet with britain's prime minister it comes as relations are marred by the u.k.'s perceived non-cooperation with the probe into american finances jeffrey epstein's death and washington's refusal to

extradite a british teen suspected killer the wife of a u.s. intelligence official but artie's done a quarter looks at how the 2 states though we seem to find common ground on issues that threaten the political establishment. the u.s. and u.k. have long been close allies but sometimes even friends have their falling outs u.s. courts are still investigating the circumstances of multi-millionaire pedophile jeffrey epstein's mysterious death and unfortunately his former friend prince andrew has been less than receptive to prosecutors so let me say that the southern district of new york and the f.b.i. have contacted prince andrew's attorneys and requested to interview present prince andrew and today. prince andrew has provided 0 cooperation lawyers and journalists were quick to phone in after pleading with the prince to aid the investigation but to no avail despite the value and or gave to cooperate just

several months ago i continue to unequivocally regrets my ill judged association with geoffrey epstein of course i'm willing to help any appropriate law enforcement agency with their investigation if required the prince's refusal gave the u.s. a taste of how u.k. officials felt in august of last year when british teen harry dunn was killed by a car following the death of heavy down in north hampton the come prosecution service has today although i still have to chip police to charge and cyclonus with causing death by dangerous driving when the u.k. asked for her extradition in accordance with its agreement with the us the request was flat out denied the united states has a strong law enforcement relationship with the u.k. and in particular a strong track record or close cooperation on extradition matters however under the circumstances of this case we strongly believe that an extradition request would be highly inappropriate that track record didn't stop the stab in the back felt across

great britain the prime minister boris johnson labeled it a denial of justice and once again friendship between the u.k. and us had a damper put on it by a failure to cooperate but does that mean they're fresh. ship doesn't come in handy when it's most needed far from it julian assange says whistleblowing was embarrassing enough for the countries to find a common enemy his lawyers claim extradition to the u.s. for a political offense would be illegal but london and washington have agreed to divide and conquer a songes hearing and get it done with asap so while the 2 powers might be ready to push each other's buttons whenever they can get away with it on issues that threaten the political establishment it seems they see eye to eye the fact of the matter is it's a one way abusive relationship the british bend over backwards to keep the american sappy but the americans are prepared to make any effort whatsoever to keep the british appy just about sums up the relationship really you know they ought really

to extradite this woman to run over the world a cyclist but they're not going to do it the diplomatic community which is rather old because she she didn't have diplomatic immunity issues she was an ordinary citizen but i think over time of course this begins to grate on the british public as they realise that in actual fact they are being treated in very cavalier fashion and britain despite its love hate relationship with the us is definitely the least the the subordinate partners and ultimately of course that's not the that will have to be changed but it's going to be an uphill struggle. participants in a c.n.n. panel discussion have mocked supporters of donald trump questioning the intellectual abilities however critics think that could backfire and in fact boost the president's popularity with details is not easily preventable. if i told you about massive favors for donald trump on the part of c.n.n. or no way hillary clinton you'd probably say what on earth is this guy talking

about now i haven't gone nuts remember this choice of words by the lady that everyone once thought was on the white house doorstep to just be grossly generalistic. you could put half of trump's supporters into what i call the basket of deplorable zx. and then about half the country voted for trump and you know where the electoral vote magic led him something tells me you've heard a 1000 times it was because of this man oh yeah admitting you did the person you loathe a favor by saying something stupid and disgusting must be tough anyway i did also mention a favor by c.n.n. . donald trump couldn't find ukraine on a map if you had the letter you and a picture of an actual physical cranes next to it and the ministration defined by

ignorance of the world and so that was while the guests were talking about my pump ale and his recent interview behavior but the conversation switched to donald trump's supporters the credulous boomer rube demo that backstop will trump like one online piece tunnel said it took this c.n.n. panel just 80 seconds to show what they really think of trump voters don't trust a smart one they're they're all you know you're a leader sort of your geography you know in other countries all those lives on the map. that wasn't it. he was doing a whole host of them so. now his goods are you that was a good what i needed that right none of these people are running for the white house like mrs clinton was but that's quite a popular weekend t.v. news show and in terms of style and language well in her footsteps although it has

yet to serve as an actual favor or. the arrogance the dismissiveness the smug cackling the accents if donald trump wins reelection this year i'll remember this brief c.n.n. segment late one saturday night in january as the perfect encapsulation for why it happened if you want to give people a reason to vote trump as a screw you to the media keep airing segments like the this is why trump won and will win again. this brings me to remind you about something else a few painful back to earth moments from 2016 that's a while ago. tuesday night was the culmination of one of the biggest media failures in many years there are many questions about what the pollsters the pundits and many journalists may have missed i think we missed the overarching story to a large extent and that is a failure this was a collective failure but i know that some of you watching right now are having

a very hard time trusting this channel called donald trump many months ago a middle finger to the establishment in this crime will and his voters gave the big middle finger last night so the bottom line is there are lessons to be learned if we are live willing to learn them simply saying it back then now does it make a difference now was mockery it wasn't necessarily someone expressing an opinion don lemon is not known as a comedian if he's an opinion journalist then fine but there's a difference between expressing an opinion with respect and and actually mocking literally more than half the country this network itself admits it's its own bias sort of a total exposure of the bias that we experience here in our media in the united states this isn't something that just conservatives have been saying there is proof now this is the media exposing themselves when hillary's called trump supporters

a basket of deplorable zx this will play to the president's favor no doubt about that this will work to deepen and broaden his base and this will work to further discredit the media that has already discredited themselves largely where the president is concerned. runs he's being rocked by yet another week of protest against the government's plan to pension reforms civil servant and trade unions. back on the streets of paris this wednesday comes just a day after the capital was smoke by scenes of violence between the police and protesting firefighters let's go live to the french capital. across proceedings there for several months now to get on the streets calling various protests and barely a day goes by in fact without something such as this protest missing today show. well some people say the protest is in the french blood the nuts while we see so

many but as you can see around me this is yet another day of protests in paris in a big win indeed another day of protests against the pension reforms that the ministration wants to bring in let's say give you a sense of what the coup taj looks like here in paris if we can get up a little bit higher and you can see the thousands of people who have once again come out to support the unions the big union the c g t in france for their wishes for the government to reverse those pension plans it's very unlikely at this stage of the government is going to do that let's just give you a sense of where we are at the government wants to make a universal pension system by putting together the food see 2 different regimes there are in france the moment it's already printed it's bill to the council of ministers it's been approved by them to go food to the national assembly which is going to be debated we believe in the middle of february now we know that the

protests which have been going on since december 5th have resulted in some concessions to the protesters for example the fact that the government wanted to raise the age of retirement to 64 that's not in the bill at the at the moment they can go back in if the unions don't come up with an alternative the other thing that says the concessions that have been given is for example the police are allowed to keep their special. he seemed so to other professions as well but the reality is the majority of people feel that they going to be impacted by these pension reforms the government says the only way to tackle the pension deficit which some estimate could be around $15000000000.00 euros in the next few years in the moon even further and that it will be fairer and mood just as the system in the feature of the reality is every time we speak to people coming out to the streets and protesting they saying this isn't going to be fairer this is in fact going to make

our lives harder in the feature in the ill. and that if i remember correctly this all started out as a protest against fuel taxes and the government actually made concessions on the fact that the protests continue is this going to be another ending pit of despair for i'm on your mark and you get the feeling of the government did make more concessions the protests would find new things they want to demand. i think it's very difficult when you're talking about then terms the fuel taxes going back to the yellow vests protests started back in 2018 and oversee the government it was suggested were quite slow to give the concessions over versing that fuel tax and said we've seen the yellow vessels on the streets every week they continue to protests we've now got this new protest that's rolling on and as you mentioned this is taking in a variety of different professions this just isn't your average joe on the streets

this is being teaches noire is we've even seen the police at times protesting in yesterday in paris firefighters were also protesting in a protest with then lost it almost 7 months since june last year they gave add notice to the government of their intended industrial action industrial action which at times has turned violent and not violence was young sick and seen in the streets of paris yesterday with clashes between the firefighters and the police is not the 1st. time we've seen that happen the happened back in october as well firefighters unhappy with what they say is a problem with not enough recruitment they want to huge treatment troy's they also talked about wanting an increase in their salaries and the fact that they wanted their profession to be mocked as something that is considered risky something the police's profession already is which would entitle them to an increasing wage now we know since those violent clashes on the streets on cheese day in paris the

government has actually spoken to the firefighters union and said that they will get an increase in their base wage and they will look at other concessions and as such the firefighters union have after almost 7 months said that they will look to be ending that protest but it just gives you a sense of the fact that this isn't just a minute lays this in one particular section here in france this is a malays that goes through many different sections many different professions even hospital workers doctors and who've been on strike recently people who said that they not going to do administrative work in the hospitals anymore because it was working not being paid for and they don't believe that this is enough budget to sure up the system talking about it being a system that's in crisis and something that could at any point just food off a cliff so this is a real general malaise in front and these were in protest of nummy going on since december 5th and it doesn't look despite the fact that perhaps the support on the

ground is thin and the fact that these pension reforms will go through that these protests are likely to end soon unfun a done all the polling numbers are like charleville and when you think of emanuel microland you tend to think because it's dominated the news coverage so many months are you think of protests which suggest a lot of the working class are unhappy with the leadership of the country. is there much concern would you say in the government about you know micron's chances of getting reelected. well perhaps the chances of getting reelected seem a little bit far off at the moment but one thing that really is on the governing parties mind at the moment and this is these may all real and district elections that are coming up in the next few months here fronts at the government is very concerned that it looks like it's going to do badly in these elections i mean just for example one poll in the last few days and over it suggested only 12 percent of people who responded to the poll said that they would vote for mccall's public almost party and something like. a 3rd of those who said they absolutely would not

vote for that party tool even problems with the mayo race here in paris with the official party. person who's going to stand for election there who is going to be challenge by somebody within the own their own party so much was a concern that that could split the vote and give perhaps the mayoral race in paris to somebody else that the party is actually decided to tell the other person who is standing you'll no longer a member full of a public emotion is a real concern that they can to be hit in the elections coming up in the next few months but of course there will be that view ahead to the next you know half years when of course we will see the next presidential elections here in france and whether emmanuel mark on it will even at this point stand for those we've seen in the last few years that launching with the previous president even nicolas sarkozy before him one term president. well in terms of also

a law and decided not to stand for that 2nd term so a lot to play for you know lofty is almost a go and i think it's certainly something that they're thinking about and i think show is celebrated their requests and certainly the malays the months of malays it's been now continue those continued pension reform protests in paris bring us live updates shala davis can i thank you. for that brings you right up today appreciate you saying without international threat. so often you don't go too far but with the dates and off. i'm going to fulfill the repeated promises possible to the people i promise to be you know we've all but the interest. rate.

cuts. you want to. know 5. cut. during the great depression which old mr remember there was most of the family were working class there wasn't it was bed you know much worse objectively since day but there was an expectation that things were going to get better. and there was

a real sense of hopefulness there isn't today today's america where shape my the 10 principles of concentration of wealth and power. reduced democracy at tax so low down engineer elections manufacture consent and other principles according to no i'm chomsky one set of rules for the rich opposite so. that's what happens when you put. her into the hands of the narrow sector of will switch is dedicated to increasing power for chills just as you'd expect one of the most influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization of america. the russian state television propaganda machine propaganda outlet propaganda tools we are getting information for.
