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 they do 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. we would have to defend ourselves it was clear to me that this would be misrepresented by the media was attacking that because this is how this whole thing
7:04 pm
is set up this is how this is been allowed to happen. it will suddenly become a black lives matter protesters attacked 2 gay men it would be 2 white men attacked black lives matter protesters. protesters taking pause and he looked down ronnie and lynn have tried to storm the german federal parliament building the bundestag police made more than $300.00 arrests as they moved in to break up the demonstration. the authorities had earlier called the protesters to maintain social distancing police say that since the request was ignored they had no choice but to move in demonstration was preceded by a few legal battle with officials attempting to ban the demonstration a quarter inch of the rule that could go ahead but activists claim both or to show double standards when it comes to differing protests as peter all of a explains. the. demonstrations by those on happy with
7:05 pm
corona virus restrictions this weekend city authorities had try to ban the demonstration saying they wouldn't be able to stick to rules put in place to stop the spread of the virus upset people already weren't very happy city authorities were quick to point out in no way was the attempt to ban these demos and attempt to limit freedom to demonstrate. that 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 of 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. protesters weren't buying that especially after the german press started reporting that counter-demonstrations being blocked and the

disparities go on as the massive black life 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 crowd is very different from the anti lock down measures crowd when it comes to social distancing. the organizers saw that as a political move the linz interior minister said he wouldn't allow the city to become a backdrop of what he's described as coronavirus deniers and right wing extremists that despite a large part of the 20000 strong crowd expected being made up of people who have lost their jobs during the corona lockdown the organizers of the rally their
7:07 pm
supporters claim all of this smacks of double standards i think the protests by and in berlin is wrong the old thor it is argued that certain groups shouldn't be given a stage a distorted understanding of democracy the right to demonstrate is one of the most important civil rights no matter what calls you demonstrate for if you have no problem with you should also allow this burn 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 it beggars belief the ban was lifted with 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 are 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

over it. never have been violent scenes in sweden after unrest was triggered when anti islamic terrorists burned a copy of the koran in public and streaming videos of it online police say more than $300.00 people were outraged at what happened and took to the streets in protest. situation soon descended into riots with demonstrations starting fires and clashing with police. police admitted to having most control over the riots the qur'an but it was staged by members of the political policy hardline its founder is known for conducting and he is long time claims and has now been banned from entering sweden 3 other party
7:09 pm
members have so far been arrested on suspicion of inciting hatred a reaction locally as polarized as we've been here in. the burning of the koran was actually quite revealing for a country. of sweden it showed the big problem sweden has and it showed the problems we have with immigration the lack of control and also this state the swedish state's inability to control its own territory is also indication of the huge demographic problem we have. immigrant groups becoming a bigger part of the swedish society and it also i think why this action was important. if we have to wait mostly. from there you know ignorance on the problems of sweden but many swedes still think that all cultures are alike all religions are alike. but it isn't and this is one of the wake up
7:10 pm
call that's we've had enough and it's very important because swedish people are very naive and they need to wake up to reality and this incident here is one that shows the reality is so. great. we will creation. incommunicado that's what we all about and i. just want to get a pension. and to probe all 4 of the 4 of them to get their regularly kind of attention through the news and by then you have any way people burning the koran and feel needs in order to get the attention and to provoke muslims of course but i would say not only must they provoke also non muslim and i think that you know it's a civil right to demonstrate again. i was very surprised that there were no more
7:11 pm
than 300 people that stayed. the pentagon's developing a controversial project that could see computers making life or death decisions on the battlefield sensors will link air land sea space and cyberspace forces making a split 2nd choice over who and where to shoot it's called the system could even eventually replace the need for senior military stuff there are huge concerns though over excluding humans from decision making especially if the technology fails as we discussed with the military and tech experts. who are is really a simple i've done it and i know that there is new technology out there that you know has complicated it somewhat closing with them 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 a lot of friction in the decision making all you're doing is actually increasing the vulnerability of the forces engaged in combat by creating your points to could
7:12 pm
be eliminated there is no ginger of human beings being replaced in the decision making cycle any time soon robots are bringing together huge amounts of data there's so much data no doubt is being fed into different places we need some. thing to help the human brain keep up with the time is when you let the scenes make decisions that they have found throughout the target it is the appropriate situation in which to engage the target and to be seen also is going to be tasked with any responsibility for deciding where are their civilians around for some other reason what we don't know if they're right you know you're basically making it fully autonomous there are no pure autonomy weapon systems there are today that are filtered by any western country under oversimplistic simplifying conflict currently there are very few conflict situations where you simply close and clearly enemy most of the conflict situation we find ourselves in at the moment are dealing
7:13 pm
with enemies who are living within the population we haven't won the 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 to today on the radio in northern ireland so there's there's one ira was an engaged with artificial intelligence the ira was engaged with old fashioned human ingenuity. of islam a sort of military force and on and i pointed out on the end of the i'm 7 that we are used we brought in all these systems systems of systems of systems of systems and it's just not working the you actually with the people on the ground is lives at risk if you military took the high ground and said we don't want to use a 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 enemy's what about the competing armies if they've got the technology would you want your military top brass to be up to speed with that kind of technology we're developing new systems new us russia has developed you also so is china so are other countries and we're going to stand
7:14 pm
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. joining our lives how do you stop it once the scenes are started 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 dance is brought in in a way that a human being can digest it in small pockets and to the human decision making cycle we will bores by closing within destroying the enemy whether it's a conventional force or a terrorist. or we have to kill the right enemy war at the end of the day as well as humans fighting humans 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
7:15 pm
humans are going to readily defeat. if digital generals spook you out how about a programmable pig this is gertrude she's got a computer chip in her brain that's been a mirror a science project to link brains to machines that potentially cure illnesses such as strokes and addiction. can tell you all about that later. coming up out international lessons to learn schools prepared to fully open their doors in england following a covert lockdown fearful parents say they're still not convinced it's safe so our next story when we come back after the break. 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
7:16 pm
apart devalue the money is a poor girlishly gold but 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 apartheid and it's practice right here in america and all over the world they get no a high interest rates if you don't want borrowing money to 0 percent of you living in the ghetto and that's. what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. theory dramatic development only. exists i don't see how we'll be successful very critical time to sit down and talk.
7:17 pm
the program the british government is trying to reassure parents in england concerned about their children accounts from the coronavirus when they return to school officials appointed to research that only one percent of covert patients needing hospital treatments have been teens or younger and nearly all had preexisting conditions the fatality rate is relatively low as well 6 children have died compared with the 27 percent mortality rates across all age groups in britain from one to the. schools are safe. i think the crucial thing is that pupils get back to school next week and in the succeeding days all the 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 then there is from i'm afraid from the disease or one concerned
7:18 pm
mother we spoke to disagrees claiming the government's essentially experimenting with people's lives. i don't have any confidence because nothing's been put into place in their students and facemasks 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. can't stop the child you know social distancing this going to be totally impossible i just don't think that you know they're not getting help before education and i think that's what needs to how and i believe that maybe the government is doing a lot of they have been experimenting and i don't think in our lives our experiment . and our $25000.00 schools in england start the academic year next week but each facility will be provided with just 10 coronavirus testing kits masks aprons gloves
7:19 pm
visors and hand sanitizer will also be stocks but only in limited amounts now even that extremely small number was only approved after the prime minister changed his mind to making marks compulsory in schools which find themselves in localised lockdowns or thirty's meanwhile are threatening to find the parents who keep children at home some families have now launched a petition asking not to force peoples back to school more than 100000 signatures have already been collected the woman behind the petition believes there's not enough known about the transmission of codes in schools. the pandemic you still hear the virus is still here it hasn't gone away so it's kind of it was the reason that they gave to charity bank in the 1st place it gave me a vaccine and there is you know why the reintroducing don't we don't know how how this is going to transmit instils in england who to do apart from the countries but overall attendance for school children in june and july was just 16 percent so we
7:20 pm
haven't bought any idea of how good that influence is no evidence or no has the government done an impact assessment that we're going to schools a whole country if you have the individual has to reach out and education so i think in the game so that means there's no national and so days research evidence that ripped through the whole. study in britain says the covert lockdown sort of long rising number of children attacking their parents research has put a 70 percent rise in assaults down to prolonged confinement and coerced proximity higher stress levels were also blamed some parents have been sharing disturbing experiences. my son beat me so badly that if the police didn't come when they did i would not be life everything is amplified there's no escape and it's not just the person being hotu is affected it's everyone that sees and hears it's the other
7:21 pm
children traumatised by seeing us. we discussed the study with experts in psychology sociology and criminality. even before called it a lot of parents find it very difficult to discipline their children i think in britain in particular a lot of fathers and mothers are almost scared to draw boundaries that give children guidance and there's as a result of that a lot of adolescent. kind of grew up in a very constrained matter which means that they went then students develop instead of those tensions being resolved amicably or peacefully they often have a physical outcome and that's had been even before with a log ah it's obviously become much more intensified in recent months it's been terrible for you know all forms of domestic abuse we've seen rices across every single category and the longer a lot time goes on and the longer the problems that come from the lockdown like and
7:22 pm
you know financial worries and homelessness things like that you know the problems aren't going to go to white when not down ends this isn't going to end we're going to see an actual honest problem probably quite a long time so we need to take it very seriously and we need to do something about it now and it's not just going to end when the lockdown ends you know i'm actually a covert survivor and so i've been looking at this very closely and it is without question that the lockdown had a huge effect on reducing numbers everyone scared right now you know it looks like the numbers are going to go up again and you know more large scale lockdowns i think across the world soon very likely to be honest so i think an advice to parents would be all things even going to get your kids enter as many natural interactions and environments as possible get kids outside get. kids exercise get
7:23 pm
kids eating natural normal kids having some face to face interactions even if it's through some kind of you know face to face interaction with friends with family because that is how he. go the 2nd that kids are just stuck in their room playing video games with faceless people across the world for hours on end or days out and for months on end i think we might have a problem. in other world headlines a ship funded by the renowned on the street artist banksy to save migrants in the mediterranean now needs rescuing itself the vessel was only launched last week but has become stranded at sea because it's said to be too overloaded to move the 30 meter long ship taken 200 people on board twin it sent out a message calling for help it's an increased crowd came to its aid taking away 49 of the most vulnerable people on board.

7:30 pm
well the ulster defense regiment was the largest regiment in the british army it was geographically recruited here and the north of ireland and it only served here in the north of ireland it was essentially a counterinsurgency unit that was set up the back end of the troubles. that itself took over from the discredit the specials which was a special place shell it thought it existed since the 1920 s. . and it was clear from the outset that the u.d.r. was set up to recruit from within the loyalist on the unionist community. they were almost entirely drawn from within not commanded. declassified documents from british sources from the prime minister's office from the ministry of defense was likely a state's office.
