4:01 am
if you get too much data oh you actually. create a lot of friction in the decision making you start shooting a story shooting out there's a real fight going on but you stop it once the scenes are started. and we can bring good morning from russia just after 11. in the south of the news roundups of today. so 1st untold level guests on the final day of the u.s. republican national convention have reported harassment on their way out including senator rand paul who's asking the f.b.i. to investigate. why was. i.
4:02 am
the senator claims that both he and his wife were set upon by crowds protested shouted at them and pushed the officers accompanying them ron paul a to review said offices saved their lives. through a shouting press you know to stick to kill us to harass but they're also saying shout shouting save her name briana taylor b.l.m. protesters wanted the senator to say the name briona taylor as you heard a black woman shot by police in her home it appears they didn't know that paul actually sponsored the justice for briona taylor act that bans no knock warrants by officers like the one that led to her death the senator was all speed hind the stop militarizing law enforcement act to try to curb transfers of military equipment to police. and as more brenda struck at the founder of the walkway company was also attacked by black lives matter protesters while leaving the convention is his story . or people from this black lives matter mob ended up walking up the streets near
4:03 am
where my friends and i were as they crossed us they started calling us anti-gay slurs and then it became physical when they confronted us they spit in my friend my carlos face who is 8 a conservative. they threw a drink at me and threw a cop at me and then they actually slapped my friend libby in the arm a girl who was there with me as well although this is not the 1st time in my life that i have endured an anti-gay attack on the street or concentration from strangers it is the very 1st time that something like this has happened in which the perpetrators of the attack portray themselves as the victims the other thing that really concerned me and kind of sickened me a little bit as it was happening was the idea that if we got in a position where we would have to defend ourselves it was clear to me that this would be misrepresented by the media as i was attacking that because this is how
4:04 am
this whole thing is set up this is how this is been allowed to happen. it would suddenly become a black lives matter protesters attacked 2 gay men it would be 2 white men attacked black lives matter protesters next this morning this weekend bracing for a big weekend of anti looked at rallies it was preceded by a few areas legal battle with authorities attempting to ban the demos and want to court eventually ruled in their favor the activists note that city authorities seem to apply totally different standards to other rallies apparently based on the political views is our europe correspondent peter all of. berlin is set for large demonstrations by those on happy with coronavirus restrictions this weekend city authorities had tried to ban the demonstration saying they wouldn't be able to stick to the rules put in place to stop the spread of the virus that upset people
4:05 am
already weren't very happy city authorities were quick to point out that they no way was the attempt to ban these demos and attempt to limit freedom to demonstrate . on the street if the law says explicitly that the right of assembly is protected no matter the reason of the respective demonstration so to forbid right wing demonstrations allow only leftwing ones is out of the question the principle of our decision is that the rules for protection against infection will be deliberately violated and so the right to assembly should not violate the law concerning infection. both protesters weren't buying that especially after the german press started reporting that counter-demonstrations comment being blocked on the disparities go on as the massive black lives massive protests at the beginning of the summer went ahead without the same scrutiny while they might differ on a lot of issues it's not like the black lives of crowd is very different from the
4:06 am
anti lock down measures crowd when it comes to social distancing. the organizers saw the ban as a political move the lens interior minister said he wouldn't allow the city to become a backdrop of what he's described as coronavirus deny is and right wing extremists that's despite a large part of the 20000 strong crowd expected being made up of people who've lost their jobs during the corona lockdown. the organizers of the rally their supporters claim all of this smacks of double standards i think the protests burned in berlin is wrong the old storage is argue that certain groups shouldn't be given a stage a distorted understanding of democracy the right to demonstrate is one of the most
4:07 am
important civil rights no matter what calls you demonstrate for if you have no problem with you should also allow this bill and rarely if only one side can raise their issues then something's not right a counter protest against them to groom the virus rallies allowed in berlin it beggars belief the ban was lifted after it was challenge in court the ruling saying that authorities couldn't say for sure that social distancing and face covering rules would be flaunted on purpose so what we're going to have here in berlin after thousands of people many of whom don't believe the virus even exists gathering in the way that science and public health officials say is the perfect way to spread it peter all of r.t. berman. meantime side small but russian scientists have presented a device which can apparently simple tennessee detect up to 86 viral agents in the air including covert 19 and the machine called detector bio takes just 10 to 30
4:08 am
minute partly to do this test it's expected to be a huge help them in crowded there is a massive it's like pete was just talking about there. the rubble to the work began in 2815 with the help of the russian health care ministry it was a series of projects aimed at creating domestic devices that could also massively detect pathogenic bio agents in the surrounding. this just study suite that we are now witnessing the unprecedented spread of the dangerous infectious disease that is the corona virus of course we can't ignore this problem and the bio detector is capable of identifying a dangerous concentration of the virus in the air.
4:09 am
picks his device can detect a wide range of viruses bacteria and toxins and work in spaces of about 100 meters square the sensitivity of its detection is comparable to the best methods used in today's modern labs. someone doing then yes but actually a number of countries have been known to take a similar developments in the field of why security systems including south korea singapore and of course the u.s. every device has its own unique features and alice deserves for its high rate of return on this work. because i show him this for his own use it is intended for use in places of mass gatherings such as and of course train stations sports events as well as in bush's national security systems.
4:10 am
for the 2nd one sought to another the pentagon's working on a chilling project for robots to not only do the fighting it's. but also to act as digital generals controlling life and death decisions that the tension lee senses will link land sea space and cyberspace forces making a split 2nd choice if they have to over 'd who and where to shoot the systems dubbed the joint all the main command and control ga d.c. 2 and it soon planned to do the job of even senior military staff but it's a huge war a huge concerns over excluding humans from decisions especially if that take knology fails we put the whole issue of removing people from key military positions up for debate almost daily basis on a war is really a simple thing. and i know that there is new technology out there that you know has complicated it somewhat closing with and destroying the enemy through fire and maneuver. there is such a thing as too much data if you get too much data you actually create
4:11 am
a lot of friction in the decision making all you're doing is actually increasing the vulnerability of the forces engaged in combat by treating your point secure be eliminated there is no danger of human beings being replaced in the decision making cycle anytime soon robots are bringing together. there's so much data no doubt is being fed into different places we need something to help the human brain keep up with that plan is when you let the scenes make decisions that they have found the real target and it is the appropriate situation in which to engage the target you need to be seen also is going to be tasked with any responsibility for deciding where are their civilians around for some other reason or you know arthur right now you're basically making it fully autonomous there are no pure autonomy weapon systems there are today that are fielded by any western country and we're oversimplistic simplifying conflict currently there are very few conflict
4:12 am
situations where you simply close and clearly enemy most of the conflict situation we find ourselves. and at the moment are dealing with enemies who are living within the population we haven't won a war on terrorism yet i mean that's just the bottom line we've lost everyone we've been gauged in and one of the reasons why is that we've taken the iranian overland so there's one the ira was an engaged with artificial intelligence cia was engaged with old fashioned human ingenuity. of islam a sort of military force none of my players are not going to interfere and 7 that we brought in all these systems systems of systems of systems of systems and it's just not working that you actually put the people on the grounds lives at risk if you military took the high ground and said we don't want to use ai it's all about the people it's all about the human interaction and the state of war. what about the bad guy what about the enemies what about the competing armies if they've got the technology would you want your military top brass to be up to spain to with
4:13 am
that kind of technology we're developing the systems in the us russia is developing also so is china so are other countries and we're going to stand these systems up against each other if we are really challenging the other side very intensely we're going to want to turn these systems on so they're ready to respond in a moment's notice to an attack from the other side and if something happens that looks like an attack you start shooting they start shooting now there's a real fight going on and how do you stop it once the scenes have started it this is why this is so dangerous that as we get more and more sensors and we get more and more complexities in warfare it's important that bounce is brought in in a way that a human being can digest it in small pockets and out to the human decision making cycle we when bohr's by closing with in destroying the enemy whether it's a conventional force or a terrorist with fire power maneuver we have to kill the right enemy war at the end of the day it's about humans fighting humans
4:14 am
a very human endeavor when you try to simplify it by bringing in machinery computers and that's all you've done is create an artificial value that other humans are going to readily defeat on the phone call it he was progress say international from h.q. at the weekend with me kevin owen hello there coming up in the u.k. parents are horrified as the government admits it will provide only limited protective gear to you play schools as they will but good plan a lot better and so why worry. there is no such thing as money and there is no inflation and there is no deflation and the only thing there is to think about are interest rates and interest rate
4:15 am
a part of the value the fear money is of poor girlishly gold and that you can keep interest rates near 0 so that if you are a white guy like on wall street your cost of borrowing is 0 if you're a black guy living in the ghetto your cost of borrowing is 2000 percent it's called interest rate apart and it's practiced right here in america and all over the world they get go of high interest rates if you don't mind borrowing money to 0 percent interest rate you live in the ghetto and that's. join me every thursday on the alex salmond shill and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you.
4:16 am
again this is not international hope the weekend's going next the british government's trying to reassure parents there's practically no risk of children catching coded as those schools reopened officials are pointing to research that only one percent of coronavirus hospitalizations attains or younger the fatality rates relatively low too with 6 children dying from the disease compared with a 27 percent mortality rate across all age groups in britain prime minister boris johnson insisting that schools he says are safe. i think the crucial thing is that all pupils get back to school next week and in the succeeding days all scientific advice is that schools are safe it's absolute crucial that people understand that there's far more risk to the wellbeing of our children from not going to school than there is from i'm afraid from the disease but so many question
4:17 am
marks still concerned parents disagree wanting the government's essential experimenting on young people. i don't have any confidence that is nothing's been put into place other than students and face masks and it's ok my son is a teenager so he goes to high school and you know he's been home since i think it's march and the 1st thing children are going to do you see their friends that greet them and they. just and you can't stop the child you know social distance and it's going to be totally impossible i just don't think that they're not getting help for education and i think that's what needs to how and i believe that maybe the government is doing a little 7 experimenting and i don't think in our lives our experiment. but $25000.00 british schools are to start the new academic year next week but each facility will be provided with just 10 coronavirus home testing kits clinical face
4:18 am
masks aprons gloves and other stuff ises hand sanitizers they'll be in protective personal equipment packages but only a very limited amount and that's the worry even that extremely small number was actually only approved end of the day after boris johnson changed his mind and made face masks obligatory in secondary schools so recently yet authorities threaten to find parents who keep their children at home frightened families have no launched a petition asking not to force kids to school more than. to use it for use of over 100000 people have already sighed the woman behind the petition mother jennifer dunstan notes we still don't know about virus transmission properly in schools. pandemic is still here the virus is still here it hasn't gone away so it's kind of it was the reason that they came to try to hang from the great lakes gave me a vaccine and there is a hero by the reintroducing that we don't know how how this translates into skills
4:19 am
in england who can see the problem now. but overall attendance for schoolchildren in june and july was just 16 so we haven't bought any idea of how good. ones there's no evidence and no has given the impact assessment that we have schools a whole country if you have individual heads to. reach. and station in the day that it's me there's no national surveys research evidence that the whole. other news making headlines this week and the german chancellor has rejected calls to quit the vast north stream to gas pipeline project with russia is despite mainstream media pressure after the alleged poisoning of the russian opposition figure election of elie but i'm increasingly convinced the germany should pull out of the nord stream to project russia's president putin is turning increasingly into a dictator who persecutes opponents including by means of poisoning attempts it's
4:20 am
we're trying to clarify things in the valley case through our own abilities which are in fact limited when we have more clarity like in the case of mr scott palmer who will try to forge a reaction on the european level i think that we should be coupled these issues and in our opinion north stream to should be completed valmy is being treated in a berlin clinic doctors there say his condition is stable and he's in an induced coma the hospital outside of ali was poisoned in russia prompting calls in for germany to ditch nord stream too but as we just heard merkel says the economy a separate from the case and austria's former foreign minister agrees. nobody built a pipeline just to n.r. somebody a pipeline was built because there is the man it's the 2nd part of the pipeline and that was initiated in 2005 we saw that same argue man in those years apart 100 fact at alland from north america was not yet commercial. we see
4:21 am
a kind of replay of the arguments of 2005 nevertheless it was built and now there's a root cause and force during this situation i would say is the bit more different from it was 2 years ago and i don't see how the all that speaking notes which we have been hearing from u.s. officials over the last years are still well it into this environment of very low gas prices. the footage that last year brought the austrian government was manipulated is the claim from former vice chancellor christian struck told the key questions remain over a secretly filmed video implicating him in corrupt deals. with. the chancellor forced me to step down as voice chancellor that was back stabbing and the government fell as a result a guess there was someone who wanted to take my job maybe this could explain the
4:22 am
behavior i was walked all over sloan that was more than just a disappointment there's a lot to be clarified in this case it begs the question of who was behind this what secret service may have played a role a lot has yet to be clarified your member of the so-called it be ther affair it was called alleging he agreed illegal offers from a woman posing as the niece of a russian oligarch structure was forced to step down and the coalition government fell is an excerpt from the video by the german tabloid spiegel. they are. only seasonal. nearly transcript suggest crucial missions where strata rejected the deal many times the journalists in their original revelations insist the league change nothing but struck again told us he stands by his words. it's interesting the
4:23 am
journalist from these the door thing and the spiegel simply concealed the parts that are important to the general public and despite having more complete information they told lies anyway everything was turned upside down some crucial exerts which can only be fully understood in the context that i even in that intoxicated state in private supposedly private meeting it's an ib surveillance with decoys luring me into a trap by constantly asking leading questions even then i made it crystal clear and i'm saying it now officially that i don't give or take bribes the fact is that the entire context and parts where i said a definite no to corruption was simply emitted i'd like to reiterate once more even when drunk i never sell out while some other politicians do even when sober. russia's a limpid committee has sacked the head of the country's anti doping agency research the committee's decision comes after a probe exposed alleged financial violations by euro ganis which he denies saskia
4:24 am
taylor report. well you will know that russian sport has had a bumpy couple of years and now another big development in the country sports and wold on friday it was announced that the chief of the russian and to agency it was sergeant as it's known has been dismissed now 56 year old you're in dallas was appointed director general of the body back in august 27000 so he really hasn't been that long in the post but that said the decision didn't entirely come out of the blue given that earlier this month a recommendation for his dismissal was put forward by was solid to support today we once again look to the arguments made by the supervisory board hoods the report of the order and the general director yuri ganis have to carefully considering the arguments we decided to accept the recommendation to remove mr ganis the decision was taken unanimously so what's a lead to this while gomez has been accused of overseeing serious financial
4:25 am
violations not really came to light after a financial check comes down so the compete us and the reliability of an audit initially submitted by god as himself now some are saying that he used to agencies funds for english lessons for passing on taxis when he said he was a broad on a business trip he was actually on holiday but that really all added up because it suggested that he appropriate around $110000000.00 rubles up to question of around $1500000.00 so not the key issue here are the rumors of abuse of rule of power and indeed of conflict of interest now for his part going to says that this was the wrong decision and he continues to deny any allegations saying they're an attempt not just to discredit him positively but also to undermine the efforts of. building and rebuilding rather that international trust in the wake of the mass
4:26 am
jumping on occasions against washington field and track athletes back into. 15 it's not clear to me on what grounds it's being recommended that i be fired or resigned as strongly denies the conclusions of the audit if the russian olympic and paralympic committees decide to fire me it will change our relations and aggravate the situation in russian sport just so we can quickly understand the role of assad and why this is such an important decision for so much of a century a link between the world anti-doping agency or want to russia so it's crucial to communication twin short dialogue between home and abroad and to ensuring that russian support is represented on the international stage what i have to wait and see who comes to fill ghana says shoes that's a decision that will likely be made within the next 6 months or so either way it we can all agree that no one would envy him but that position because clearly a difficult time for russian sport. yes beautiful a there isn't
4:27 am
a stir across all the news we're talking about this weekend on our social media and r.t. dot com so much on there we have no time for here but also goodbye for now reporting from moscow i'm kevin o. and thanks for watching and i've observed what we can. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race is on offense theory dramatic development the only really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. in a troubled 19 seventies a group of killers rampage through parts of northern ireland that was coordinated
4:28 am
loyalists attacks particularly. population tens of thousands were forced to flee their homes and what was striking to put these attacks was a p.r. you see the police actually took part in the attacks so instead of preventing it they were active participants in the burning of full streets in belfast at the time more than a 100 innocent civilians were. as the review can seniors and we found out more i was surprised about the extent to which the inclusion was involved in some of those cases the killers would later be named. i think it went to the very very top i think it is. the water where all the taste you know on the go ahead.
4:29 am
hi max times are this is the kaiser report we're back from summer solutions the worst solutions no no no only problems now for the next 10 months yeah states well let's talk about the biggest thing that happened while we were away on vacation and that is warren buffett has obviously used that opportunity while we were away to make a major major major change and his portfolio and which indicates that kaiser report has been right for the past 10 years he dumped many of his banking shares and went long gold miner barack the biggest gold miner in the world so max what do
4:30 am
you think about this sea change in his portfolio right well it was obvious that he would have to get into gold gold mining gold bullion at some point get too much cash he was underperforming the stock market for 15 years he had made an enormous mistake and airlines again for the 2nd time in his career took a huge loss and he never understood technology got in very late and he's got a problem now with all the money that he helped bring into existence by having the government bail him out perpetually not not not not in 2008 was a huge bailout of warren buffett and they had to print trillions of dollars he's debased the value of the money the u.s. dollar and the only protection now we have as a way to preserve wealth is to get into gold so this is the 1st for.
