the deal of the century sparked outrage and protests across the middle east with claims the proposed roadmap to end the israel palestine conflict only favors the. palestinian leadership transplant calling it the slap of the century the u.s. ambassador to israel has made it clear that the palestinian viewpoint is not something that will be taken into account. it doesn't matter what the palestinians say. open to them. that's what we want. another week another protest unions are back on the streets of paris still angry at president pension reform plans as protests the spillover into violence in the
9:01 am
french. international great to have you with us. it was meant to be donald trump's fail safe plan to bring peace to the middle east yet 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 strong the streets of jordan guards are the west bank and turkey and rage that washington's actions the palestinian president is flat out rejected the deal saying it's biased towards israel or the trump insists it's a win win solution. my vision presents a win will have originally for both it was. worth it was
9:02 am
a realistic 2 state solution that resolves the risks of palestinian statehood to israel's security was. it's a great plan for israel. it's a great plan for peace. i was at all times plan for jerusalem to be israel's undivided capital is already a nonstarter for palestine israel would also get control over security and most palestinian resources palestine would stay fully demilitarized israel could destroy any facility for production of banned weapons palestine would be barred from security or diplomatic arrangements with other countries without israeli approval but it would get a $50000000000.00 aid package now in palestine if we take a look the map provided will consist of the west bank here and guards are almost
9:03 am
entirely separated from each other there would be connection via roads they've been marked by lines and also fire tunnels and bridges shown by the circles here obviously they've yet to actually be built the palestinian state itself would get a capital that would be situated somewhere on the outskirts of east jerusalem here is pretty vague no particular area specified as yet the us ambassador to israel claims it doesn't matter that palestine has rejected the deal for 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 the palestinian state would get a capital as i said on the outskirts of east jerusalem for the slayer explains. well the reaction has been overwhelmingly negative we've heard from the palestinian
9:04 am
president mahmoud abbas saying a 1000 knows saying that 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 trumpet largely of and that is taking me is waiving position on major issues now we have heard from a number of states particularly turkey and iran this is an action plan aiming at
9:05 am
usurping palestinian learned and killing the 2 state solution jerusalem is our 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 prime of peace and prosperity but a plan of imposition and sanctions awaiting another. now the iranian foreign minister as every if 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 united. i'm saying that it could be a step in the positive direction the united nations however has said that it
9:06 am
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 we 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 of these lately prime minister 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 and that says even with the palestinians agreed to the deal he says that he can go ahead and do this so the frustration and the disappointment and perhaps even the hatred on the streets of palestine and in many countries across the world here in the me john we are witnessing this and intensify and grow the u.s.
9:07 am
embassy has been hit to its diplomats and embassy workers from visiting the old city of jerusalem the west bank and gaza out of security concerns were discussed trumps the latest proposal with middle east experts from the different songs of the conflict. this has nothing to do with the deal has nothing to do with the palestinians has nothing to do with international law has nothing to do with the e.u. and resolutions has nothing to do with the agreements already signed by the palestinians and israelis the united states recognizes the said israel didn't recognize the state of palestine and so in other words until the united states recognize the state of palestine along that idea 67 borders would jerusalem as its capital i don't think there is room for any negotiations over anything that's why if the united states want to make amends with this they've got to they have to come to common ground according to international law it's called along the $9067.00 borders that's the issue between the israelis and the palestinians here at
9:08 am
a whole campaign he's going to put america 1st all he's doing is trying to incite more division more problems and more chaos in the region any peace plan cannot be one sided if it was a true plan he would be sitting with both presidents of both countries and working together in order to find a common ground a solution until they give back the golan heights and all the territories that they are occupying i guarantee you that there will be no peace plan on the table on the middle eastern side palestinians only claim land they want to claim the lands as a as a staging platform to demolish israel i can see it ever happens it never did happen it never stands a chance every time whenever the palestinians reach into a point where they're given a state of their own they're always rejected and they come up with 1st genocide and then war of attrition and then intifada which is a suicide bombing war and cocktail sort of moment of cocktail sort of campaign and
9:09 am
look when they when where when and where they end up now with literally nothing. france is being rocked by gets another week of protests against. governments plans pension reforms civil servant and trade unions are back on the streets of paris this wednesday comes just a day after the capital was rocked by scenes of violence between the police and protesting firefighters let's go live to see how the french capital. is reporting for us there charlotte another day in paris another protest. yes that's right this protest is now the 8th nationwide protest that's been held since those rolling protests started on december 5th of last year this protest being run by a number of unions again against the pension reform while the public transport strikes have pretty much come to an end in paris and across the rest of france this
9:10 am
is a momentum now to show that there are still people who are incredibly unhappy with those pension reforms just to bring you up to date as to where we are on these pension reforms they have been concessions given to the strikers in the protesters over the last few weeks including the fact that the government has removed the age of retirement which was going to be increased to 60 more an increase of 2 years it's taken that out of the document it was osa right to put it back in his ass you needs to come up with other solutions in the meantime but that document has been presented to the council of ministers here in france and it will now go to the national assembly where it's due to be debated in the middle of february other concessions that have been handed out include concessions to the police so that they can keep some of their special regimes and 2 of the workers now the whole idea of this pension reform was to move food ichi different systems down to the
9:11 am
universal system and to make it more just and fair that's what the government says however people on the ground many of the people i've spoken to disagree with that they say will mean they'll have to work longer and harder and they may end up with less. me at the end of it this gives you a sense of what the procession is looking like here in paris today to get a sense of that support let's think back to that december 5th protest where we saw over 800000 people across the country since then in the week since that number has come down the last protests we were out at the nationwide protest was on friday official figures suggest that there were around 31000 people who came out to support that actually they it feels that there are possibly fewer but we are of course waiting for those official figures and it's not just these protests against the pension reforms that have been rocking fronts yesterday in paris there was of course the violent protest ended up violence by the firefighters firefighters who
9:12 am
have been protesting for almost 7 months 7 months with unease over the conditions of their work saying that they desperately needed to you to have a massive recruitment drive they wanted an increase in their salary and they will do their profession to be labeled as a risky profession which is the same as the police with the idea that then they'd be able to get a premium for the work that they do as you mentioned those scenes in paris yesterday to turn to 5 to one point and you might you see this in some of the images that we're showing you one of the 5 i just was in the heads of what appears to be a rubber bullet from the police so huge tensions will to get in paris at the firefighters protest since then though the government has negotiated with the unions and they have agreed to increase the base salary for firefighters and they are looking at
9:13 am
some of the other elements of the firefighters would say they have announced their particular protest is coming to an end but many of these other protests are likely to continue we may not see the big protests that we saw back in december going into the new year. certainly there was a general malaise here in france amongst a range of sect is going from the public transport little kids right the way up to those who work in the justice system and teaches inductors to this general malays over a lot of the reforms that have been through to him by the my current administration and the reality is while this protest today may be less supported in times of peace on the ground this is a malays is going to continue and it's unlikely that these protests are going to end anytime soon and more protests plenty of violence over the last few days and always on the say now let's say thanks to charlotte to pinsky in paris thank.
9:14 am
the mockery on c.n.n. of donald trump supporters could buy but i will explain or after the show. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation community. are you going the right way or are you being led. by. what is true what is faith.
9:15 am
in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us on the death. or a made in the shallowness. i actually don't think monopolies percent are the problem it's monopolistic access the monopolies have to credit what politicians and probably both the crony financial ism crony capitalism that's the big problem that's. ok back in a major blow to u.s. efforts britain has approved the participation of chinese tech giant huawei and its new 5 g. cellular network washington how the blood heavy pressure to block the company's involvement beijing though welcomed the u.k. decision this is the place that decision will result you know mole but the
9:16 am
vast more secure and the more cost effective infrastructure so it's a treat for the future huawei is. a company we may not do business with at all because it is a national 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 system. why would anyone grant such power to regime that has already grossly violated cyberspace. the terms of ministration alleges the beijing could use the equipment for spying the tech giant though is consistently denying that it would allow the chinese government to do say size is a professor of cyber security the u. case university central lancashire he says britain has to work with weiwei 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.
9:17 am
technologies over the last 15 years in the case it would 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 of view. we need 5 g. to be deployed we need that to be done as soon as possible with the best quality possible with the different prices that will make the u.k. it is more attractive for business and it will continue its sleeping position you know in the world. you're sick to state has arrived in london to be with britain's prime minister comes as relations of marred by the u.k. specific non-cooperation with the probe into american finances jeffrey epstein's death and washington's refusal to extradite a british teen to spectate killer the wife of a u.s. intelligence official but artie's donald calder looks at how the 2 states that always seem to find common ground on issues that threaten their political
9:18 am
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
9:19 am
agency with their investigation if required the prince's refusal gave the us 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 crown prosecution service has today authorized no thumbs in 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
9:20 am
a failure to cooperate but does that mean there for. 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 are happy just about sums up the relationship really you know they ought really to extradite this woman to run over the ocean cyclist but they're not going to do it they claim she had diplomatic immunity which is rather odd because she she didn't have diplomatic immunity issues she was an ordinary citizen but i think over
9:21 am
time of course this begins to grate on the british public as they realize that in actual fact they have been treated in very cavalier fashion and britain despite its love hate relationship with the u.s. is definitely the the subordinate partner and of 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 their intellectual abilities however critics think he could bank fire and even boost the president's popularity lipitor inker explains. 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
9:22 am
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 and his recent interview behavior but the conversation switched to donald trump's
9:23 am
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. so you want to get hold of them so. those goods are right you know 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 re-election this year i'll remember
9:24 am
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 has a screw you to the media keep airing segments like these 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
9:25 am
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 doesn't 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
9:26 am
work to further discredit the media that has already discredited themselves largely where the president is concerned on the rough seas of this are over but with movement. trade and investment to become magic spells to conjugate could not make development . most people think about trade they think about the goods and services being exchanged between countries and the investment chopped or of a trade agreement is about something very different but what when investment leads to toxic manufacturing that destroys sacred sites all ruins the environment. that means local communities that are being poisoned if they object if they do anything

9:30 am
infusions of weaponry this fighting can't continue so the un track remains the only way forward the security council meeting it must unite but not just unite in words which is what they've done in the past but actually in deeds but far from. a arms i'm booked. the u.n. mission in libya is now claiming countries taking part in the summit were sending yvonne's weaponry trucks and soldiers violating all the words we're hearing that's got to stop not getting on is in the pipeline will have continued since perlin yes but there must be a means of supervision set up by the un security council with the power to hold supplying countries to account and it is after all it unacceptable that u.a.e. craft should be bombing targets and killing civilians amongst others.
