to downplay any been demonized any candidate who questions work with our wives. was donald trump's deal of the century sparked outrage and protests across the middle east with claims the proposed roadmap to end the israeli palestinian conflict only failed to tell of the face of the palestinian leadership spurns transplant 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 promise didn't say we're going to keep this box open for them for 4 years that's what we want. another week another protester unions are back on the streets of paris and still angered at president mccracken's pension reform plans as protests spill over into violence in the french capital.

a very warm welcome you are watching r.t. international with me in a key area. you know 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 into father against israel hundreds have thronged the streets of jordan and gaza and the west bank and turkey and raged at washington's plans actions that the palestinian president has plot 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 was. a realistic 2 state solution that resolves the risk of palestinian statehood to

israel's security it was going to have. it's a great plan proves wrong. it's a great plan for peace. transplant for jerusalem to be israel's undivided capital is already a nonstarter for palestine israel would also get ultimate control over security and most palestinian resources palestine would stay fully demilitarized and israel could destroy any facility for production of bound weapons palestine it would be barred from security or diplomatic arrangements with other countries without israeli approval bert said would get a $50000000000.00 aid package. palestine it would consist of the west bank and gaza almost entirely separated from each other they would be connected by roads

represented by lines on the map and tunnels and bridges shown as circles here 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. 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 hit a capital on the outskirts of east jerusalem put a slip 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 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 it trump and netanyahu the 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 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 the israeli position on major issues now we have heard from a number of states particularly turkey and iran this is an exclusion plan a minute 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 of 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. a 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 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 on the streets of gaza and the west bank burning the american

and israeli flag and also pictures of these ladies 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 jim we are witnessing this intensify and grow the u.s. 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 we spoke to must see head of the palestinian national initiative party and dr motor cheika dar from the bank inside. university but it was that very different reactions to the do.

it's not even an american plan it's actually an israeli written plan an american envelope the reality is killing the possibility of 2 state solution by substituting the potential palestinian state with clusters of ghettos panel stands as you can see in the map that mr trump has published it creates a situation of diminishing of one nation over another that ignores 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 of recklessness and it cannot continue and palestinians will never accept that we cannot accept to be slaves of a system of occupation and that is the exact description of what apartheid look historically jerusalem was never any capital of any arab islamic state so why do

they need also then why can they have a mullah or whoa are these you know the parliament of the palestinians is all of the built in our bodies so why shouldn't our bodies be their capital if they want the capital but they want joslyn only to extract the jewish heart and this is why they want to destroy israel as i said they want to establish a palestinian state. of israel let me show you something which you usually don't show the palestinians have and this is the p.l.o. flag they want to establish a palestinian state philistine. this is israel the hollies of from the river to the sea in this is the p.l.o. flag not hamas even and this is what i would as a means when he talks about a palestinian state nothing less than this that would accept and this is actually and they really think israel altogether and this is why they don't accept any deal not from obama not from bush not on clinton not from dump not from or just for but

nobody there will accept unless they get the whole country in us jews should go to hell to russia. 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 penske picks up the story. 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 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 fact that the government has removed the age of retirement which was going to be priest to 60 for that increase

of 2 years he's taken that out of the document it reserves the right to put it back in bizarre soon means to come up with other solutions in the meantime but that document has been presented to become sort 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 to all the work is that the whole idea of this pension reform was to move food chichi different systems down to a universal system to make it move just unfair that is 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 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 against the pension reforms that have been rocking france yesterday in paris there was of course the violent protests as did the filings by the firefighters 5 fight is who have been protesting for almost 7 months 7 months with ronnie's 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 as the police with the idea that then they'd be able to get a premium for who 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 wilkins 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 brought in by the my current administration and the reality is while this protest today may be less supported in terms of bricks on the ground this is the 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 meet britain's prime minister comes its relations amal's by the case they've non-cooperation with the probe into american financier jeffrey abstains death washington's refusal to extradite

a british british teens suspected killer was the wife of the u.s. intelligence official but r.t. that donald quarter looks at how the 2. states still always seem to find common ground on issues that thrice and that 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 friends. ship between the u.k. and us had a damper put on it by a failure to cooperate but does that mean their friendship doesn't come in handy when it's most needed far from it juliana songes 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 facts 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 exploit this woman to run over the motorcyclist but they're not going to do it the diplomatic community which is rather old because he she didn't have diplomatic immunity she was an ordinary citizen but i think over time of course this begins to grate on the british public as they realize that it actually they have been treated in very cavalier fashion and britain despite its love hate relationship with the u.s. is definitely the the subordinate part of and of ultimately of course that's not the that will have to be changed but it's going to be an uphill struggle. the families of 3 palestinian teenagers allegedly killed by israeli forces last week near the gaza border where the tips rejected israel's claim that the teenagers post a threat. yeah my son mohammed was a smart kid at school there ever since he was a child with the show he was doing really well in high school taking english

classes and preparing for college that was his ambition your larger my son and we're looking. at my blow up his hand who wouldn't know what to do with it is a kid who has never even seen a grenade meanwhile israel says its military forces spotted the green breaching the security border fence the israel defense forces statement odd that the teenagers started launching explosive devices at the troops forcing them to open fire but in 2000 civilians have died during israeli military operations in gaza or according to the u.n. however relatives of the palestinian teenagers say they want their bodies back to make sure they're actually dead. really if they said he was arrested like i would understand that he would come back to us after a while before and if you got killed i would want to know at least and i want his body returned in that case because my son is not part of any faction there is no need to keep his body like that he is a school student and the israelis know this and i demurred every relevant committee

like the red cross and human rights groups and these very leo stories has tell us something about my son and his friends if their life were not just to ease my heart . participants in a c.n.n. panel discussion have mocked supporters of donald trump questioning their intellectual abilities however critics think that may backfire and boost the president's popularity are trying to as 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 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 let 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 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 title 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 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 sigman slike 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 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 it 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. after the backlash the c.n.n.

show's host don lemon apologized claiming he didn't catch everything that had been said he's 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 sentenced to 7 and a half years in jail for drug smuggling. was arrested while transiting at a moscow airport to tell of eve with us after she was found to be in possession of a small amount of cannabis the israeli prime minister has thanked fundament hussein for his pardon on thursday is the heart will fly back to israel and benjamin netanyahu is playing the pm it will be other working is on a working visit to moscow. obvious street art is coming to life in one russian city local artist andrey persian makes images more moving quite literally.

i could bear all cities and nations with. the virtues of movie the image of skins the best seat in this it. incredible stuff well we're going to top of the hour with the latest headlines so join us then if you can.

join me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see that. my uncle with the kids in compensate oh boy to night nobody. can see that no proof that they think. it's not. going to.

move on which i did. then showed up to move this because a i'm listening to i'm going to be i didn't show up and i must. say i thought it was not so much because i was it is a constant that he was outside you must say i'm a huge thank you. i. during the great depression which i'm old enough to remember there was most of my family were employed were people and there wasn't it was bad you know much worse objective listen today but there was an expert. taishan of the things we're going to get better. there was a real sense of hope. there isn't today today's america was shaped by the turn principles of concentration of wealth and power. reduced democracy attacks. engineer elections manufacture consent and other principles

according to. one set of rules for the rich. that's what happens when you put her into the. narrows. we'll switch is dedicated to increasing power for jewels just as you'd expect one of the most influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization of america.

hello and welcome to cross talk we're all things are considered i'm peter lavelle from donald trump in 2016 to tell us a gobert in 2020 there is part of the electorate their response to antiwar anti interventionist rhetoric in fact there is evidence to significantly helped get trump elected but the fact remains the establishment is keen to downplay and even demonize any candidate who questions foreign policy orthodoxies why is this. crosstalk in the foreign policy blog i'm joined by my guest brian becker in washington he's the director of the answer coalition as well as host of loud and clear a daily news show on radio sputnik in minneapolis we have tony was r.-o. he is director of big tent republicans pact and in dayton we cross the he's

a syndicated cartoonist and opinion column this are democrats liberals in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate brian let me go to you 1st in the swamp you know watching this ridiculous impeachment hoax being played out which almost no one is watching here we're all told about the differences you know that separate the republicans and the democrats conservatives and it's very very tribal the media makes a ton of money off of well i so i would suppose i would hope for them because not many people are watching it not many people are interested in it but there is there's this huge huge failure in the media in the political class talking about what is really bipartisan and foreign wars and intervention is the bipartisan issue they keep it together it's like the glue that keeps the establishment together and i don't care if it's the republicans or the democrats how do you react go ahead. well i agree of course i mean the greatest single recent example of this in addition to the impeachment trial would be the house of representatives

passing the national defense authorization act and a they allocated authorized 700 and $38000000000.00 to the military and to its commander in chief that would be donald trump at the moment that they were impeaching donald trump and that number that $738000000000.00 was more than trump asked for and it was more than the pentagon asked for and it also not only basically violated the outer space treaty of 1967 by creating a space force and declaring that yes the democrats too would insist that outer space the heavens be the next war fighting domain i mean this is an indicator that even though they're squabbling they're fighting they're fighting over the you know the great prize of being the leader of the state that allocates a trillion dollars of contracts every year when it comes to the empire when.
