trail. when some find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. and i mean. the pulls ahead. despite facing it. for his socialist stuff. in the u.k. as it emerges that. time in prison for islamist terror related offenses released before he completed his sentence he was shot dead 2 people. border controls with china in an attempt to halt the spread of the coronavirus but stopped short of a complete closure we hear from a journalist in the chinese city which is the epicenter of the efforts and. even

the potential of human to human transmission there's no public transportation and the. shopping malls restaurants and cinemas. during this period close. in one minute past 11 at night here in moscow this month a welcome wherever you're tuning in from my names you know neal good to have your company. monday marks the beginning of the road to the white house for us democrats candidates being to do battle in the states of iowa caucus of folk proven influential in the siding who runs for president. for a shot at the oval office socialist bernie sanders is leading the way in terms of donors on this now in fact the joint front runner in the polls well the iowa
3:02 pm
caucuses the start of the primaries and usually a litmus test for what's to come bill and hillary clinton went from victory in iowa to run the democrats counter that barack obama as well and ahead of this monday. here is what the latest polls indicate outsider bernie sanders no sure is a surprise lead with former vice president joe biden who's leaving behind the other centrist hopefuls marti's killam up in reports know why washington might be wary of a sunday spectrum. the iowa caucuses are upon us and monday is the 1st primary contest takes place in jaws are dropping because the front runner isn't one of the sexiest centrists favored by the d.n.c. but an elderly socialist from vermont too is technically not even a democrat but a registered independent can imagine any woman watching last night and saying i believe bernie i think people believe it was running bernie sanders against trump
3:03 pm
would be an act of insanity so to have him just flat out say no i think wasn't it wasn't nearly enough to address that for the women watching bernie can't win according to the new york times bernie sanders is surging ahead because he has an enthusiastic base of supporters who are attracted to his left of center agenda mr saunders insurance and his apparent roys in the earliest primary and caucus states reflects both the loyalty of his core support says and their conviction that mr saunders would bring the same fighting resilience to the general election even now as mr saunders takes the lead in the 1st 2 states his opponents have not delivered a sustained argument against his candidacy and remain reluctant to take him home bernie sanders describes himself as a democratic socialist and socialism is supposed to be a dirty word in the united states but not so much anymore polls show that younger people are not so hostile to the term and are far more critical of free market policies and austerity c.n.n.
3:04 pm
is certainly no fan of bernie sanders a paid contributor is even happy to admit it i hope that my networks clear bias against bernie sanders will convince citizens of all idiology state corporate media figures. overwhelmingly for so you could journalism in favor of blatant activism oddly president trump has had mixed things to say about the front runner in the rival party which bernie well. it will be interesting to see how i think what happened to bertie. they was that so nice i think he was taken advantage of he really great 4 years ago and he was done treated with respect by clinton those wounds from 2016 are certainly open and sore among bernie's core supporters leaked e-mails revealed that the d.n.c. was working overtime to deprive him of the nomination it's not just those mainstream t.v. networks or the leaders of the democratic party this former assistant director of the f.b.i.
3:05 pm
actually admitted that for years this federal agency actually works to keep people like bernie sanders from taking office the electorate in some places is putting more and more progressive than self described socialist in positions one of the missions of the f.b.i. in its counterintelligence efforts was to try and keep these people out of government he wasn't joking either the f.b.i. is cointelpro program worked to isolate left wing groups and keep them from gaining any influence one radical group called the socialist workers party actually sued the f.b.i. and spent a decade in court proving that their rights were violated court proceedings revealed that the f.b.i. had planted fake news stories infiltrated the organization broken into offices and even had members arrested on false charges all in the hopes of weakening the socialists at the ballot box bernie sanders was at one point a registered elector for the socialist workers party he campaigned for them amid the harassment and legal battles so it's pretty safe to say the f.b.i.
3:06 pm
has been on d.m. for some time with so much working against him bernie sanders seems to be pulling ahead getting more donations than any other candidate and his rallies are packed full of young people were a trap. to do his message of cancelling student debt and guaranteeing health care with a 2020 primaries in full swing many observers are asking themselves can bernie sanders really pull this off. r.t. new york. will speculation a barnes over the sudden counsel ation of a highly regarded poll in the iowa caucus c.n.n. which publishes the results said that was at least one complaint about the way polling was conducted there for 76 years the des moines register poll being considered a solid predictor of success ahead of the state caucus now it's consolation calls the storm of the year used to appear on twitter. at let's go into the little
3:07 pm
bit further because i'm very happy to say we're joined by sergio culture concert to another at war activists the decorated u.s. veteran who's hosting tonight in iowa caucus watch party. did you expect a poll considering the golden standard of political polling isn't at this des moines register to suddenly be dropped like what's your take. of course i mean that everything that they've been trying to throw at bernie sanders to china push away from him and the lack of coverage that they've been doing until the polls start rising and really high numbers of course i mean i don't think it was a surprise i think few days ago press also released out over $700000.00 were poured into and to bernie sanders campaign ads and i have lines well so obviously the forces that be do not want bernie sanders just one more thing he's not a socialist he's the governor craddock socialist and i think people need to stop
3:08 pm
calling him socialist and. you know it isn't going to be a fair enough they new york times that was at least one complaint that doesn't sell enough significant do you think they really should have just worked there on any mistakes and on really still annoyance the result. yeah i mean i think it's total nonsense i mean we obviously know the power of the media and the way media has been . portraying the selection and i dismiss specifically bernie sanders so yeah i mean that's of course they should have released that i mean there's there's always what there's always some kind of standard deviation right there's always some kind of mistake because it's polling you're asking people i mean people might be in the good mood people might be in the bad mood i mean all these things are sort of the should be accounted for and so there's no excuse not to release the data and the point is the middle tail journalism yappy put a judge was it was left by mistake that was what that was being spoken about how significant is this pull for the for the iowa caucus does it have that much of an
3:09 pm
influence. i think it does. through symbolism but i think that also we have to be careful because in 2016 before the general election the polls were coming out saying that hillary was going to win is welcome so i mean obviously it does give a boost but i think the results tonight and i are going to be it's going to be a real answer to what's been going on on the ground i mean we've been we've been knocking on doors with me collecting signatures to put them on the ballot we've been holding phone banks 345 times a week we have people calling it on their own i mean we have right now a lot of our members and a lot of our friends are actually in i was in knocking on doors some forum on some for days on for weeks so i think that's that's what's really going to determine what's going on what's taking place and you know i mean it's looking good and tonight is going to be the test and you know i think it's going to be
3:10 pm
a. few interesting hours ahead sergio cut you get on to war activists who is hosting an iowa caucus watch party this very night. sir. donald trump's self-proclaimed deal of the century which was meant to be a solution to the israeli palestinian conflict is not facing rejection from islam countries the organization of islamic cooperation which has $57.00 member nations says it will not support the u.s. proposal plus the journalist rami khouri explained. the plan by by us a president different from doesn't look for doesn't look good for people's concern to be accepted as the organization of islamic or pray shouldn't rejected this a plan the organization of islamic cooperation calls on all member states not engage with this plan or to cooperate with the us administration in implementing it in any form planned rejection came 2 days after the legal therapist hating cairo
3:11 pm
can rejected the same plan coalinga describing it does not meet the minimum rights of the palestinian people iran which was not being allowed to take part in this meeting of the corporation organization had to blame the studio ribby of the government of saudi arabia has prevented the iranian delegation from participating in the meeting to examine the deal of the century plan at the headquarters of the organization of islamic cooperation regarding the planet that was presented by the president the trump does giving the israeli severity over. security control over the palestinian territories and it allows israel to teens or vertically exclusive. jerusalem within what the united states says undivided the character of israel which is jerusalem actually the plan also gives
3:12 pm
israel the upper hand in controlling the security of the of the palestinians in these in the palestinian territories and also gives and offers palestinians a package of $50000000000.00 u.s. dollars for the investment at the grassroots level palestinians including factions political factions also rejected the plan and accusing them of illustration of being sought by a is in favor of their israeli state. joining us live now on the program nobel peace prize nominee and head of the palestinian an initiative from the stuff bar the stuff you're very welcome speaking this hour to us from kuwait the deal of the century has not been essentially rejected by the organization of islamic cooperation on the are of the league why such rare unanimity and not grouping because it is rare to see when those 57 countries get
3:13 pm
together. well i think it's a very strong message not only to israel but also to mr the united states administration. their plan which. meant of palestinians in a system of apartheid and additional discrimination is not going to work when 1500000000 people who. it is against of the $57.00 islamic countries the projected plan plus $360000000.00 arabs who are also detect in the plant plus the show which is not accepting the plan and china as well what does that him in on the side of the united states marshall islands or american easier i think the american israeli position is isolated and i think decisions of the islamic countries as well as that i believe is very crucial and 1000000000. plus of course the
3:14 pm
positions of money and people and don't buy national community who believe. the american israeli plan is nothing but of only option of international human rights. under solution well among the deals opponents are countries with with close ties to the u.s. how do or what do you 1st see washington doing to to win them over. their current for the very simple fact is that even when some governments go in the direction of supporting such a horrible plan they. people will reject it people will stand against it yesterday mr. head of the input every council incident and i am sure this. will will face now a storm of rejection and opposition and so done it i think that mr questioner and his team. have underestimated completely what the means to
3:15 pm
the muslim christian and the world they are that is timid how much the palestinian cause sympathized with with being accused of people who have been oppressed colonized and subjected to a system of official discrimination and prototype for such a long time so i believe their plan will not work but what has happened gives us an opportunity as palestinians to explain to the whole world do not approve of the palestinian issue the fact that we are a people struggling for their freedom for justice put independence for some of the mission we just simply struggling for what other peoples have ok and we cannot we deny that right or thank you very much for your time and your thoughts this hour ahead of the palestinian initiative number stuff barky. moving the program all night police in the u.k. have revealed that the man behind sunday's knife attack inside london served time
3:16 pm
in prison for islamist terror related offenses and was only released yesterday or the assailant wounded 2 people in the assault before being shot dead by armed officers shot it was dusty. well terror 'd has now come to the streets of london for a 2nd time in just 2 months and already i so have claimed responsibility for the incident that occurred on stratton's high street just last night but there were similarities between this latest incident and the last terror attack that happened on london bridge one of which is of course the very fact opposed to say dance where. a hoax device on their chest before being shot dead by police officers at the scene the 2nd month potentially more controversial is in fact the both of them were released early from prison for serving 'd sentences related to terror offenses now the government is already outlining its response to the latest incident but birth johnson has already reiterated that he wants to bring forward legislation to stop
3:17 pm
and prevent this early release from prison for convicted terrorists but auggie isn't stresses that it could be quite complex to do so the problems we have with reeducating and reclaiming and rehabilitating people who succumb to islam is a very very hard and very tough and it can happen but the instances of success are really very few and we need to be frank about that and we need to think about how we handle that you know in our criminal justice system so 20 year old suit a man here only served half of his sentence it was a full sentence of 3 and a half years but he was in fact released early terror fences including possessing and distributing bomb making material now his mother though argues that her son was actually radicalized within the prison system and therefore the questions are raised when it comes to that but other issues too including the fact that at the time of the incident a man was actually under close police surveillance in fact 2 officers were trailing
3:18 pm
behind him so many argue how could this incident have happened under police watch well london massive car he says that immediate urgent answers need to be questioned by the government so that it's a question i've got for for the government to ration to what they're doing to keep us safe i'll give you some examples we know there are some to your people who have been convicted of a tour of france and have been released from prison what are the government doing to make sure that they are not a danger to the public because roughly speaking people conviction of terrorism in prisons no. what are we doing to make sure they're being punished and reform and. then be the recipient so of radicalization where prisons are universe of crime rather than proper properly you'll be but i decided quite worried a rush into the government's response but well police have been searching the hostel where it is believed that the stratum attacker has been living over the past few days that many questions have come into play particularly how
3:19 pm
a convicted terrorist could cause such an atrocity just days after being released from prison but of course this latest incident is just one of many over the last few years that have been carried out by a salience known by the intelligence and security services. of terrorism expert dr david low ses
3:20 pm
a lot of countries are facing the issue of radicalization from within prison. amount seem to be deeply get more and more deeply in deal with the is the missed. before he was sentenced for his believe his conviction. he was released but you know that there is an issue in it is a big concern in newquay prisons i think not just you can think of the states of this too we've seen it in france you seen it in other states where there is a degree of radicalization going on within prisons all 3 parties they do they may want to put this. being a teacher of the book the boy had a hand in the culpability of this and it does need reform and some individuals who would send a resume are so deeply imbued. but to have this sort of ridiculous situations we seen with them are quite clearly was was was keen to carry out attacks he's been out for a week and he's in the clothes police surveillance that shows you the risk that
3:21 pm
they were showing him in there's a 3000 individuals who are specified interest on all of those risks or risk assessment is made. with fear is continuing to grow over the spread of the corona virus hong kong has tightened border controls with china although stop short of banning all travel to and from the mainland the city's chief executive curry lamb they following advice for the territory's inhabitants like. i strongly advise home car is a dance through friends from going to places where there is another great club including the main like unless it's absolutely necessary though full year well the base journalists where they coronavirus was 1st recorded gave us are very glimpse into how the chinese set is coping with the spread of the disease. given the potential human to human transmission there's no public transportation in the epicenter of the current of ours the city is situated by younger river near where i'm standing and locals may take ferries from one side to the other side and

3:25 pm
its armed forces killed over 17 syrian government troops in an attack on the province and president has had this to say about it. we said it's no longer possible and we responded appropriately with or artillery bombardment so we are making to be the netsuke price and we'll continue to do so now i can as offensive was a response to the deaths of a number of turkish troops which were part of a military convoy that traveled through the border into early on monday this military convoy almost immediately came under artillery fire from syrian government troops which are currently engaged in a renewed offensive against the last militant stronghold in the country in the turkey's president actually says that this military campaign is a violation of the cease fire they have with the country now the russian reconciliation center says that turkish incursion into it came without any warning
3:26 pm
and that actually they didn't carry out any strikes against syrian government still ations let alone kill any syrian government troops so we have 2 quite different versions of events from russia and turkey a possible escalation in the region it libya is most likely where the major powers involve. in this conflict will either make or break peace. or political analysts under walczak sais it is extremely difficult to pin down turkey's intentions here. one thing that comes to mind is that they want to undermine the peace process but i don't want to or will come to a disco blue should yet 16 lead difficult to our see what is the plan or what are the orbit bertha says that changes from. our unexpected being skin change the mood can change of the ground in 5 minutes and one hour from turkey directly is impossible it would cause tens of thousands of human lives
