a warm welcome to archie internationalists our my name's you know neal good to have you with us our top story. france's advise ing its citizens living in or traveling to muslim countries to exercise caution. or protests erupted over the french government's defense of the right to show publicly carcass of the prophet muhammad showed dubin skate picks up the story. it is recommended to exercise the greatest vigilance especially while traveling and in places that are frequented by tourists or expatriate communities this warning has been issued for those traveling and living in some muslim majority countries and it comes as there are rising tensions between france and those countries over comments made by president in the wake of that terror attack the beheading of teachers patti president said that he would defend the right to show controversial cartoons of the muslim prophet mohammed now
1:02 pm
there is this huge anti sentiment that is is sparked up in the wake of that with protests now in many majority muslim countries with some of burning effigies of president back on and of course from boycott on french products have had. ample god and it would have been happy that half happy. it was that bad am. or president back or has refused to step down over this comment which would perhaps defuse this situation and he has been
1:03 pm
accused of with playing up anti muslim sentiment and that's because in the wake of that terror attack there has been a crackdown on muslim associations and of mosques that are all said to have extremist sympathies here in france and there's already been some repercussions seen with attacks being investigated including attack that took place last week in order in the west of france and that was against 2 jordanians a brother and a sister who were quite hospital treatment they. see they were attacked because they were speaking arabic now the charge against present macron has been led by the turkish president president hu on who suggested twice in recent days that mac or needs a mental health check but even here in france some muslim association say that they do not want these quantrill herschel cartoons to be shown in schools between freedom of expression and the deliberate will to offend the feelings of muslims there is the duty of brotherhood and responsibility there's also
1:04 pm
a growing fear here in france one poll recently showed that 79 percent of people who responded that really believed that islam is some had declared war on the country of france and the recalls for increased vigilance particularly around places of worship and in gatherings and that warning comes from france's director general of the national police who believes that the terror threat here is particularly high in the wake of all of this this route between france and muslim majority countries seems to be widening every day and it's spilling out now into some very serious consequences. to discuss this more we're joined live on the program by or a. director of the center for political studies in welcome the jordanian who we mentioned in the report who was attacked along with his sister has claimed it was a racist incident do you see any link to france's crackdown on radical islam.
1:05 pm
simulated to the honored by. a man and woman. in the head to cry and. all that has nothing to do with x. it is that he is a school teacher. in a public school in a france just to stay there for 9 months not smaller and he's not even and the guns his daughter is a universe it's you who don't completely think he must to get in a firearms in a school and ship her from the coast and does it just because this would be the topic to gather on the bus as there were at the act by 2 extremists far right extremist and it is that i just ordered now undocumented local authorities and in france as a head of the crime i think this is that is all. the are rising into one of the far
1:06 pm
right the owners and the france and unfortunately by the demodex made by the president president of france a man who went micro on about his commitment to publish and that he published the shows that got those up a book that my mother which is assault on their feelings and believes more than 1000000000 muslims it seems that we are attending this clash of civilization and a struggle between really just this course ok this is not good for the cooperation between the 2 shorter shows of the media today and this it creates a lot of problems and to add up with a less issue with the out of its mission with the fronts already know it of course we did see a teacher be headed up by by somebody who had a philosophy of radical islam recently supporters of him heard on social
1:07 pm
media heralding the heart attack will know islam is living in france see this crackdown on radical islam or islam depending on your point if you as a positive move to think. i think a front should be very much jeff for differentiating between out of the country and these 2 groups in meditation the muslim community and you would have been the last one to 25 years and it muslim communities are as lot of clubs that is different she has very much it could push others and this beauty and direct we are aware about the sort of the colors and among the communities muslim communities and the west this is part of the ising m.p. allowance of that rick sitting as the other but it was never constant it's unfortunately it was in college during the global jihad. and the aftermath by some was doing concrete including your fronds to achieve percent and ability kind of
1:08 pm
goals with what he got cold war and the aftermath yeah of course i guess. it's what so-called shock that got us on this radical groups thought that if you were by some western audience the supported by some intelligence and that was the company and there succeeded in the game co-op even in the muslim community is that where it's we know about the influence of those the bottle was. moved ahead to that right let me get on the ground what is all of you what is it i'm sure that jordan has some sympathy but what is happening in france what is view of of how france have parse is actually dealing with the show are they supportive at all. in one hand jordan was very much and good he and your mom. says that it is a crime against. a human being again. and
1:09 pm
then you see this is day month by the ability of the macro i think also that is. the jordanian officials as well because this is not a blow but a way to deal with with. and to start to move. really and i believe one of the one most in the world. and we don't know yet there is a because of time or absence i'm so sorry we could have talked for a lot longer but just because of time or a directive the center for political studies in amman thank you thank you that. resentment in europe continues to grow over new covert rules although countries have stopped short of fol lockdowns again people are choosing to fly the restrictions currently in place the riots in barcelona hundreds gathered in a central square protesting against the state of emergency imposed across spain and
1:10 pm
ignored a new nighttime curfew people also said fins on fire near the beach are the similar scenes in italy for several city hall protests get out of turin on the right of your screen you can see smoke is being let off bottles hurled police while in milan riot officers resorted to using tear gas we got reaction to the new spanish and italian measures. the movie did it she started as you can see italy is rebelling this government has decided to suppress the italian people to starve them to death we hope that this government will fall soon one of. these a quite drastic measures but they are kind of in the middle it's not the real up down it's a look down by high. obs you know. this makes me suspect that in the end the problem will transform from a cemetery issue into an economic one and that is where the real problem lies.
1:11 pm
pretty much it's a disaster it will be devastating for many people and many families that work in the nightlife industry. well here in russia delhi infection rates they are soaring hitting more than $16000.00 local authorities in moscow though are currently reluctant to return to a full lockdown let's get more on the picture right now with r t correspondent. a worrying one merging for russia's authorities. unit hello there well we still seem to be far from a full lock down but the numbers aren't looking good at all like you said we have a new record that is a total of 16550 new cases and that is just in one day and also 320 deaths we didn't see numbers like that in the spring so this is the worst result for the country since the pandemic broke out and the
1:12 pm
authorities are forced to ask for us to act story starting from this week russians in all regions all require the countries will have to wear masks and all publics places be it an elevator or a bus or a shopping center anything now this is a must and it's been decided by the russian health watchdog and not everyone is happy which explains instances like this one when for example a staff member of the public transport was attacked for asking the passenger to wear a mask and these cases do happen similar ones and different cities of russia now something else that's been recommended by russia's health watchdog was for the heads of regions to shut the doors of bars and nightclubs all across the country from 11 pm to 6 am however this is not obligatory for now and the regions will
1:13 pm
decide themselves what to do with that work commendation for instance this kind of decision has already been made and st petersburg where the bar nightclub doors were shut however moscow is reluctant to do that just yet they've introduced a special q.r. code system so if you want to get into a bar during the night you have to use your phone for that and if a positive covert test gets into the database. people that were in the club together with that person they will be informed through s.m.s. that they need to be careful and they need to pass a test now speaking of the things that are happening in the region cold it is taking over russia and we do understand that in the city of samarra for example where the situation is getting worse that's one of the biggest russia cities and between moscow and siberia medical students are being rushed to help out.
1:14 pm
their fellow doctors that are from the older generation here is what we heard from one such student but should we stand aside when our colleagues are working in clinics and middle sitting over 5 years of already chased significantly since the 1st day when i came here to work at hospital i'm not a child any will i don't feel like a student. while high i can tell you that the head of russia's health watchdog is warning that it seems that everyone in russia will have to wear a mask still the population gets full access to the vaccine we don't know when exactly that's going to happen but what we do know is that the head of the fund that is behind russia's most pioneering vaccine he's applied to the world health organization for some kind of quicker registration of the vaccine that's being developed in the country by the way one of the latest updates speaking of some of
1:15 pm
the v.i.p. politicians in russia is that surrogate of the russian foreign minister is currently in self isolation after having contacted someone with a positive covert test and here thanks for taking us through all votes are to correspondent. again taking aim at his democratic rival joe biden accusing him of making millions in dodgy deals. he gets 3. hours from russia from the right of the moscow. really. just what did he do for that he had no income no job and. he got i was doing 5000000000 from china i said to a friend of mine the biggest overall street very smart guy said is that possible to get that he said it's not possible for my for to get it and this was the big
1:16 pm
$110000000.00 a year for one introductory purposes. in response to allegations moscow joe biden denied them mr trump's remarks do come though after bomb shell reports of corruption and conflicts of interest within the biden family in a low similar allegations have been made against the president to sifting through the mud here's jack name 2. no matter who wins the election in november both biden and trump are big names in politics now and their families will continue to cash in on that but hey they can't help who they're related to right take biden's son hunter if you don't live in a cave you've likely heard that he once served on the board of a ukrainian energy company while his dad was a v.p. now it's not exactly clear how much he pulled in there but reports say somewhere around 50 k. a month or more that point on his resume has cost his dad a never ending headache and he's both admitted that taking the position was
1:17 pm
probably a mistake and that he likely would have never gotten it if he wasn't biting there's a lot of things that would happen in my life that that if my last name wasn't biden didn't make a mistake well maybe in the grand scheme of things yes but that's probably not the only business decision he regrets there's also the time he flew to china with his then vice president father on air force 2. i which didn't raise any eyebrows at the time biden brought family on foreign trips all the time but that's because back then that no one knew that hunter was forming a chinese private equity fund or that hunter met with a chinese banker who was his partner in the fund during the trip spokesperson says it was a social visit but that scheme was approved by shanghai authorities just days later and $100.00 didn't see any money from that until after his dad was out of office when he did it was over $400000.00 hundreds business ties to china don't stop there but well let's move on to joe's brother james there's plenty to say about him but
1:18 pm
if we focus on one thing back in 2011 while joe was leading the obama administration's iraq policy james was executive v.p. of a construction firm that landed a 1500000000 dollars contract to build houses in iraq the company denied that the vice president's position had anything to do with the deal but what do you make of this deja this is his name helps him get in the door but it doesn't help him get business people who have important names tend to get in the do easier but it doesn't mean success if you. name a bomb he would get in the door easier to be fair those contracts did fall through but it's things like that that makes trump jr say things like this the biden family is the most corrupt political family in american history i'm pretty sure that video is what pops up when looking for the meaning of the phrase the pot calling the kettle black because the trump kids are 2 and justify control of the trump organization was handed to don jr and his brother eric by their father when he took office due to conflict of interest issues but in 2017 promotional materials from
1:19 pm
trump tower mumbai were not boasting of connection to quote us space real estate tycoon celebrity and potest donald trump the office of the president can't be used for personal benefit guys so the ads which are said to have been unapproved were pulled it also put her fashion line into a temporary trust before taking a role in the white house and yet reports of her company having trademarks fast tracked keep cropping up she rubbed shoulders with xi jinping and the same day several new ones are approved and speaking of her fashion lines right after an appearance on 60 minutes alongside her father after his election it was jewelry company sent out a blast promoting a $10000.00 bracelet from the line she was wearing during the interview it was promised that things that the company were still being sorted out after the election but it wasn't the 1st time mix politics and business she previously used a speech at an r. and c. convention to her clothing line and there's also the fact that while trump was in the midst of an election his kids opened up trump international hotel in d.c.
1:20 pm
it's an honor to stand before you today and officially welcome to trump international hotel and tower washington d.c. and that has led several foreign dignitaries to come visit the president paying his kids for their accommodations all this nepotism and what looks like selling access to powerful men runs a fine line when it comes to legality but man it's got to be great from their perspectives are all doing a new conservative era for the. u.s. supreme court pick of a macone bar it's a new judge has been confirmed by the senate that leaves the court with 6 conservative leaning judges and 3 from the left as expected all democrats in the senate voted against parts appointment they were joined by one republican that left a vote 52 in favor of 48 against the american people put their trust in you and their faith in you as you take up the task of defending our
1:21 pm
laws our constitution and this country that we all love. the russian unprecedented confirmation of amy kearney baron's as associate justice to the supreme court in the middle of an ongoing election should be a stark reminder to every american that your vote matters amy kone barak becomes just the 5th woman appointed to the supreme court forced ever mother of school children to take the role she is a conservative christian and has spoken out against more liberal thinking on l g b t rights and abortion her colleagues claim she'll be a sympathetic and impartial judge that i. will help you welcome onto the program not joke a short joe is presidential candidate for the socialist equality party and writer for the world socialist website good to have you on the program joe so there we have it $6.00 to $32.00 thirds of the supreme court now is swinging in
1:22 pm
favor of republicans or conservatives. what impact does that go into. well it's clearly going to shift the court further to the right over i think that really one has to understand the ramming through of this nomination in the context of trump's electoral strategy because he certainly sees the supreme court as a critical element is efforts to undermine the results of the election to maintain power whatever happens in the popular vote there are planning to challenge mail in ballots and all sorts of other. challenges we still take to the supreme court in term certainly sees the pushing through of this nomination is critical and that's part of his broader incitement the far right violence threats against governors and the general threats not to accept the results of the upcoming elections just one
1:23 pm
week away is there some success though in what he's managed to achieve here by getting this part on to the supreme court because the last time obama tried to appoint a judge in the run up to election republicans blocked it or it didn't go through anyway how does donald trump managed to pull this off a week before the election. well there you have to understand the response of the democratic party anyone who is familiar with the arcane rules of the u.s. senate knows that there are innumerable ways to stop a confirmation like this the democrats refused to do anything to block it they passed a resolution to continue government spending just before the nomination hearings began they made sure that there would be no significant effort to stop the nomination of barrett and as you indicate if the roles were reversed the republicans would have blocked it that's because the democrats are really terrified of the development of a real popular movement against trump's conspiracies and they're really covering up
1:24 pm
the far reaching significance of what the president of the united states is doing in threatening the process of a vote itself how much will donald trump see this as a personal victory joe. well certainly he will but i think that the broader situation is that there's enormous and growing opposition in the united states and he is responding to enormous social anger the result of the pen demick mass unemployment a homicidal policy that the trumpet ministration is itself implementing that is already red led to so many and so many thousands and thousands of deaths and now is firing out of control but he is responding by inciting a futuristic violence to meet with or carrying forms of fuel the democratic party of wall street are terrified to mobilize popular opposition against it and they want to keep all opposition to trump within the framework of the state apparatus one of the reactions we heard from joe biden he said it was a stark example of why everyone needs to vote next week but do you think this
1:25 pm
appointment is going to have any impact in the presidential race well what's really involved is trumps denial of the vote itself and that's what the democrats are not really saying anything about i mean this he's installing barrett in the supreme court in order to override the vote. and i think the real question is the development of popular opposition not only to trump but to the ruling class policy that you represent the financial oligarchy in the united states but certainly the appointment of barrett is a new home mark in the destruction of the democratic rights of the united states and a real warning to the working people in this country and throughout the world joe as always thanks very much for your time good luck as well next week we've been speaking to joke a short presidential candidate for the socialist equality party on writer for the world socialist web site thank you. calling famous classical composers by their last names only is sexist and it is racist that's
1:26 pm
1:27 pm
beethoven is so well known and doesn't need to be accompanied by his 1st name the same with people who are so famous they can go by their 1st. i want to sit in on one of your peach meetings the stories that don't make the cut have to be better than what he published. i have no idea what that means. the reason why we don't say. the 1st name of wolfgang amadeus remote artist because we know mozart it's it's shorthand it's deference it's the fact that we are lazy sometimes we see bush tromp biden puton i normally can at least see the root of the concern i don't understand this but if you said for example miss mozart and
1:28 pm
miss chopin then miss if there were a woman and you never said mr maybe you could say how come you call one miss and the other one by one name maybe just maybe the reason why we're hearing this is to have a big weight and condition and get this used to in sanity so that we don't react to any more where we are hit with the most pastors crazy lunacy you think there was anybody in colleges or schools or musicology who were saying they did it every time they say mozart again they're promoting white racism and homophobia i don't understand they're regarded as members of the fiercest going's and one of the most dangerous countries on the planet and next r.t. makes a risky trip to meet them our documentary machete boys of congo is up next year
