thank you so much it was. it. was a. long trance tale of the century sparks outrage and protests across the middle east with claims that proposes road map to end the israeli palestinian conflict only favorite television. for the palestinian leadership transplant calling it the best flop of the century the us 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 palestinians think we're going to keep this open for them for 4 years that's what we want. and another week another protest unions are back on the streets of

paris still angered at president across his pension reform plans to protest spillover into violence in the french capital. a very warm welcome to you you're watching r.t. international with me carrying. it was meant to be donald trump's failsafe 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 have through the streets of jordan gars that the west bank and turkey and rage to washington's actions the palestinian president has flat out rejected the deal saying it's biased towards israel although trump insists it's a win win solution my vision presents a win win opportunity for both sides.
1:02 pm
a realistic 2 state solution that resolves the risk of palestinian statehood to israel's security. was. it's a great plan proves wrong. it's a great plan for peace. transplant for jerusalem and to be undivided capital is already a nonstarter for palestine israel would also get ultimate control over security and the most palestinian resources palestine would stay fully demilitarized and israel could destroy the facility for production of banned weapons palestine would be barred from security or diplomatic arrangements with other countries without israeli approval bert's it would get
1:03 pm
a $50000000000.00 aid package. palestine would consist of the west bank and gaza almost entirely separated from each other they would be connected by roads represented on the map here by these lines on tunnels and bridges so in a circles and most of which have yet to be built the us ambassador to israel claims it doesn't matter that palestine has rejected the deal right now. 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 on the outskirts of east jerusalem post lia has more details well the reaction has been overwhelmingly negative we've heard from the palestinian president mahmoud abbas saying a 1000 no same with the palestinian people and the issue of jerusalem cannot be bought and far from this being the deal of the century as the american president
1:04 pm
likes to put it this is a deal that deserves to be in the trash bin of history i would like to say to the duo 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 this what 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 aravind that is taking me as way to position on major issues now we have heard from a number of states particularly turkey and iran this is an explosion plan aiming at usurping palestinian learned and killing the 2 state solution jerusalem is our red
1:05 pm
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 of imposition and sanctions a waste. now the iranian foreign minister zarif has said that this is the dream project of a bankruptcy 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 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 borders now
1:06 pm
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 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 and that is 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. embassy has prohibited its diplomats and embassy workers from visiting the old city of jerusalem the west bank and gaza out of security concerns. let's get reaction
1:07 pm
now from must father good c.b. had of the palestinian national initiative party thank you for joining us on the program mr garratt does the proposed plan respect international law under existing u.n. resolutions. absolutely not it actually violates these laws violates the international law in reality this plan is about helping israel violate these laws by an extinct by territories which is illegal by international law by x. it is jerusalem which is a key by territory by building settlements which are illegal by international law since it says that an occupying power cannot send its population to an occupied territory in the ality this is not a peace plan it's a plan that kills the opportunity for peace and it's not even an american plan it's actually an israeli written plan enveloped in an american envelope the reality is
1:08 pm
killing the possibility of 2 state solution by substituting the potential palestinian state with clusters of ghettos panta stands as you can see in the map that mr trump has published it creates a situation of diminishing of one nation over another it creates a situation where you have 2 laws for 2 people living in the same place and that is the exact description of what apartheid is what gives the us the right to unilaterally suggest changes in reach will the international map like this. they united states position is reckless at least mr trump's position is totally reckless and ignorant and it has also. kind of our organs that ignores the 1st of all historical facts ignores the rights of the palestinian people ignores the emotional feeling of all the people in this region so in my opinion it's an act
1:09 pm
of recklessness and it cannot continue and palestinians will never accept it we cannot accept to be slaves of a system of occupation and in the longer i think this is bad for both palestinians and israelis because instead of solving. the problem here it is protracting the problem instead of creating 2 state solution which could which might bring peace and coexistence it is now opening very long road for palestinians to struggle against the system of apartheid and oppression and discrimination whole as it is that the palestinians have already flat out rejected the proposed plan so how will we us in its right be able to implement it now. well we have to understand that maybe or originally this plan is not about reaching an agreement maybe it is only a game that mr trump has cooked with mr netanyahu to justify israeli unilateral
1:10 pm
measures i mean it was really. very very strange to have to see the american police a president speaking about peace plan between 2 sides while he had one side only on his own has a date which was mr tenet and you know there were no palestinians the palestinians were absent it takes 2 for a tangle and ideally usually is between 2 sides in reality they have transformed in goshen actions between israelis and palestinians and couldn't go sheehan's between israelis and israelis and that's why this plan has no future it only complicates the situation it serves the interest of the most extreme right wing people in israel especially netanyahu who is facing a trial for 4 corruption cases and it might be an effort to help mr trump who is also facing difficult elections and possibility of impeachment so in reality this is a very selfish act of
1:11 pm
a prime minister and the president. and israeli prime minister and an american president selfish that hurts the interest of all peoples in this nation with that tension still hated on the israeli palestinian border and a select stench reignited by the proposal is there a danger of more unrest between the 2 states. of course but we the palestinians have to 1st of all yesterday we had a very unified position and i'm president of level of unity between all palestinian groups including those in authority and those in opposition we have one unified position rejecting this deal and because we want peace we want we want real peace we want real steel we don't want to be slaves of our system of occupation but also we have opted for nonviolent resistance and today we marched in the area that
1:12 pm
israel wants to annex in a peaceful manner and because we we are we are sure we will continue this form of struggle we will never give up we are determined to continue old struggle to achieve real peace to achieve justice to achieve the rights of our people all we want is to be like everybody else we want to have dignity you want to have freedom we want to have sovereignty and not to be in slaved and systems of ghettos and but most of all because he had of the palestinian national initiative party thank you for your time. in other news now france is in the grip of another week of protests against the government's planned 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 so it depends key picks up the story. this protest being run by a number of unions again against the pension reform while the public transport
1:13 pm
strikes have pretty much come to an end in paris and of course the rest of france this is a momentum now to show that there are still people who are incredibly unhappy with those pension reforms that they have been concessions given to the strikers in the protesters over the last few weeks including the fine that the government has removed the age of retirement which was going to be crease to $64.00 that increase of 2 years it's taken that out of the document it was just the right to put it back in business unions to come up with of the solutions in the meantime but that document task being 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 over favoring 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 work is that the whole idea of this pension reform was to manage footie 2 different systems
1:14 pm
down to the universal system and to make it to move just in fat what the government says how if the 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 money at the end of it this gives you a sense of what the professions 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 $31000.00 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. the pension reforms that have been walking front yesterday in paris there was of course
1:15 pm
the violent protest as did the file and by the firefighters firefighters who have been protesting for almost 7 months 7 months with the monies over the conditions of their work saying that they desperately needed to have a massive recruitment drive they wanted an increase in their salary and they wanted their profession to be labeled as a risky profession which is the same is the police 7 with the idea that then they'd be able to get a premium for the would they do as i mentioned those scenes in paris yesterday turned violent so there is a general malaise here in fronts amongst a range of sectors 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 malaise over a lot of the reforms that have been brought in by the my current administration and the reality is while this protest today may be less supported in terms of boots on
1:16 pm
the ground this isn't malays is going to continue and it's unlikely that these protests are going to end anytime soon. the u.s. secretary of state has arrived in london to me britain's prime minister it comes with relation to mars by the u.k.'s perceived non-cooperation with the probe into american financier geoffrey epstein's death and washington's refusal to extradite a british 250 back to killer the wife of a u.s. intelligence official but artie's donald quarter looks at how the 2 states still always seem to find common ground on issues that threaten their 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
1:17 pm
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 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 come prosecution service has today also eisner with hands and chip police to challenge 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
1:18 pm
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 labelled 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 a songes whistle blowing was embarrassing enough for the countries to find a common enemy his lawyers claim extradition to the us 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
1:19 pm
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 facts of the messages it's a one way abusive relationship the british bend over backwards to keep the american sappy but the americans all prepared to make any effort whatsoever to keep the british appy just about sums up the relationship really you know they are what's really so extreme that this woman the run of the bunch of cyclist but they're not going to do it they claim she had diplomatic immunity which is rather all because you she didn't have diplomatic immunity and she she was told me citizen but i think over time of course this begins to grate on the british public as they really laws than an actual fact they have been treated in very cavalier fashion of britain despite its love hate relationship with the us is definitely the the subordinate paul and of ultimately of course starts the that will have to be changed but it's going to be an uphill struggle. to take on the mockery on c.n.n.
1:21 pm
join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. welcome back participants in a c.n.n. panel discussion have mocked supporters of donald trump questioning the intellectual abilities however critics think that may backfire and boost the president's popularity articulating the trenka has the story. 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
1:22 pm
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
1:23 pm
ignorance of the world and so that was while the guests were talking about mike 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 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
1:24 pm
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 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
1:25 pm
a very hard time trusting this channel called donald trump many months ago a middle finger to the establishment in this crime and his voters gave the big middle finger last night so the bottom line is there are lessons to be learned if we're 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
1:26 pm
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 after the backlash the c.n.n. show's host to tone lemon apologized claiming he didn't touch anything that had been said and didn't catch everything that being said. he has also clarified that he was laughing at the joke and not at any group of people. the russian president has pardoned an israeli woman who was certain stew 7 and a half years in jail for drug smuggling nama is their heart was arrested while chart transiting at a moscow airport to tell of eve that's after she was found to be in possession of a small amount of cannabis the israeli prime minister has vowed to mere putin for his pardon is a horrible flybacks it is well on thursday. thanks joining us here on out the

a huge ponzi scheme to worse solar power we'll explain who was behind it and what they're facing now so much to get to on this very busy day so let's get started. and we begin with a move by the u.k. that could be seen as defiant of the trump administration as the u.k. will allow wall way to build out part of its 5 g. infrastructure as we've told you britain's new prime minister boris johnson has indicated that he would put britain's need for 5 g. technology ahead of threats from the u.s. government that doing so could limit intelligence sharing on tuesday the british government said that it would in fact give permission a while way to build quote non-critical parts of the country's 5 g. networks britain's national security council concluded that the security risks that the chinese company presented could be managed to keep in mind while way has consistently denied the chinese government has back doors built into its technology and for all the attacks again.
