here is putting a little risk literally doing it for political reasons it's very foolish if the doctors tell us that we should take it i'll be the 1st in line to take it absolutely but if donald trump tells us i said to take it i'm not taking it is a spectacle of absurdity the coosa to the election we got the more ridiculous it became they were arguing not about who to vote for her but about how to do the actual voting democrats people to marilyn their votes while republicans are in their boots to go vote in person. you're getting tired of the democrat. the saw the jobs are covered jobs are trending democratic coverage of the town you know why the judge a judge everybody out of voting people aren't buying it. was and did what could only be described as monumental acts of duplicity and hypocrisy

they would warrant each other law to politicize the pad demick the same people that brought you all of these the bungled response the in a name celts and accusations had the gall to say this this is become a political thing let's sort of crazy that it's become a political thing this is not a time to score political points to baseless commentary it is a time for facts unfortunately it's become very clear the democrats are more interested in keeping the coronavirus as a political issue than actually fighting the virus we all know about the memes about 2020 what a catastrophe it's been and it has but no matter who wins this election no matter how they win they will inherit a country riddled with division and infection a population seeking tod of politicians and duplicity for many this isn't an election about picking the better president. it's an election about making sure

that the other girl loses. are actually months to speak to afshin rattansi who interviewed scott atlas on his program going underground he said unfortunately it's unsurprising that trump's code advisor call such a stop by appearing on r.t. . these arguably mccarthy times we should expect that when journalists from countries other than the united states brokers information that are helpful is helpful could be helpful to united states citizens we should expect this kind of press opprobrium from the so-called liberal mainstream media this is a 1st amendment issue i think even though. he has to register under this foreign agents registration act which the name agent is probably probably hoodwinking a good few liberal journalists in the united states it doesn't mean we're all spies who were killed and it's a sad day i think specially given the corona virus has killed hundreds of thousands

of people all around the world the highest at all in the united states and all we were doing was giving the chance of some of the white house coronavirus task force to speak and i think he enjoyed the interview it was disappointing i think that he said he was taken advantage of how was he taken advantage of when he was allowed to speak to you or tease audience and their audience reach is hundreds of millions of people all around the world in doing so he will those who are hate him and dislike his scientific views to be attacked on all grounds how can he actually be a proper doctor and he doesn't know what t. stood for and what the ownership. was about and who funded it the idea that all these networks called straight on that rather than what's in the interview which affects the lives of hundreds of millions of americans. now back to our breaking news from vienna police have confirmed one death in

a shooting near a synagogue in the city center at the moment authorities say 6 different locations across the capital have witnessed gunfire austria's interior minister has declared the violence a terror attack police are still searching for the shooters and to asking people to stay off the streets while let's just give you a few images of the chaos. thank. you oh. thank. you. thank well i now joined by professor hines got an a from the unified thanks for joining us now you obviously sort of at the crux of it you're in the city where it's all unfolding and i'm just wondering how you seen

anything on the streets right now have you hide anything and he spoke continue when he's seen anything. living in this peacefully or. close to the 1st place you know this happened so i didn't have any experience of their attacks of course you can hear and see these cars and ambulances. fire we found the place where i had to carry out the force and the career i had. stopped to mean by. who was. some of these 3 boys because of the 6 locations you mentioned but most of them out of. this except 7 since the sixty's mentioned. and while. they're on the 2nd because there are some 2 is showing institutions but we don't

really know what the motives of this. police points back and. it was very likely that it's some sort of obvious that they. are. against civilians in order. nation for according to the reasons so that's. i the finish needs that they have is that they but that has been some assumptions that they might be and i'm all. over his team and all publishing greece has been planned in the long run before because several of the gunmen we don't know yet involved in this situation so one of the young. people. i always saw was this one where he's met his kids and leads one to him but as said

one of the libyans in the whole city was that these 15. being just some seriously wounded. at the beginning that were these was. probably never us because it's not really in. them and so i can't the situation we would expect even i.b.m. out of 5 now they seem to have a situation i'm on the convoy. well he refused to leave the house to serve as a sailor saying that i thought arms specially because he sleeps because the use. justifies the assumption there is. at least one probably more going. on and they might take him out a comparable. at least what we're talking that about the

reaction i'll feel for you how they're trying to get a handle on the situation how confident are you given that it seems that perhaps it's a coordinated attack that there and number of bad news involved how confident all you is that police will be able to swiftly deal with the situation and prevent anything fatah tragic happening. violet trained by the. same stock market here with experience and. a moving sense boss across the ice cream 7 i learned thanks again one to 17 or he. thought he'd seem to be the coordinates and how they're meeting. their sense of how to. invoke meaning. please by applying gave. cause so that put anything. expedient is not all and

of course you don't know. 100-1070 think i'm a steeler. on the i'm. a very cool. i'll cross. today to the last evening before the lockdown because of culprits and see the many people i have to enjoy the last 3 evenings but it's because i'm not ill. during the night while he sleeps of all us anyway but not because of cavities to think but because of the wealth. so what do you. in heaven going so fast. now she should stay at home and not go out and i think the 1st district i would go get out. so and see where he is of

course in fire brigades and ambulances but it's not a recipe is not that exciting. and shows that. as they were at the beginning i want to pick up you were talking that back how he was due to come as everyone was out and about i wanted to ask how what is the pandemic could be exploited by people with these terrible intentions you know the governments are so focused on co-writing a virus that directing so when you have that resources towards dealing with this health crisis that minds are so focused on that i mean there it could be sinister but is this almost a perfect time for people with these intentions to attack. what we do know it can't. it can't be planned by p 2 or so came to be. accidental so. last evening there are many people around the state.

at that custom to gunman had the intention to ensure as many as stevie and as positive or so it was the perfect time to do so before the mixed minds. i'm not allowed to brought any any more in the evening so i don't know. crossed as you say if if if it is true we've just released. to. get. as many as civilians as possible because they were still understates today. i want to also also looking at this attack in vienna in the wider context of europe which . overseas seen in france in recent days a series of attacks shootings and stabbings. think it's possible. that europe is concerned that this terror is going to go beyond france's borders

and it's going to cross the continent. i don't know but what i can see across the kids at texting and. much lots of them was what happens. when you have these. are claiming i was recently. so i might be recording nations but. some did make it into my so. it seems what happened in mind what happened. in. so by that beech tree and i don't know because it's a valley launch. mostly name community. services because i kind of chose. the moment because it's right coast and that's not the case same in the end i was so what i know we're not i'm not sure the conflict

between them is mostly i'm community here. nice. society of course. there's. writing. and so on and these debates all away you know i think you know there is no reason that they. still don't know whether i was really chosen motivate the. least is why i was so it might overly. but you do not have to say who. got a man so we don't. talk about this because the deal from james is you do asian before they start talking about they want the remote to use and so. the fact that they close now we know the allston chong sebastian cut we sent

a sad compliment how can you compete and denounce a. any extremism of any kind whether it's religious or not we also heard how the french president. again stood by the freedom of speech he said we're going to continue posting on caricature as in all cartoons and now we're seeing these attacks do you think that is a concern that any time i need to speak south and. you know office people to embrace the freedom of speech even if you don't like it is that our affair that more attacks will come. on i'm not so sure of that. because orders western society in free. speech and we didn't have a case here. and so and of course any government would be against.

your will being a government would be against. of course there's the christian hard to find it and there. were these. that was not. who were there as far as the. green and mostly. islamic states no muslim states. of course you didn't have such a situation you know. most experienced. intelligence services. any more.

so we might have known something like that probably. it was more informed and there . seems to be the. really expected it is not. a good time. while sacking unexpected but there's also so much speculation as you said it's very it's far too early to say exactly what the motivation behind attack was obviously and your papa trained to that that was professor hines that night as political scientist at the university of vienna thank you very much faster coming on to the program. well for more on what happened when our going to go live why european correspondent peter peter you've been covering it you've been following all the updates while bring all of us the latest. well the very latest that we're hearing is that the federal armed forces of austria being deployed to the streets of vienna in order to help the best gauge sheet of

what appears to still be an ongoing manhunt we've also heard from the marrow of vienna mr ludwig he said that confirming one person amongst the crowds one person has been confirmed as having been killed 15 taken to hospital some of those we understand are in a serious condition among them at least one police officer. he's being rushed to the hospital for treatment now as far as the perpetrators themselves they say perpetrators because the police and authorities still haven't put a figure on the amount of people who were involved in this attack they're looking at multiple gunmen who attacked multiple sites 6 different crime scenes of being investigated that were attacked by gunmen carrying rifles that's according to the vienna police in the statement they put out one of those perpetrators is dead was killed at the scene by police another at least one more is understood to be in

custody at the moment but that isn't. hasn't been confirmed officially by the authorities it is being investigated as a terrorist attack though that was confirmed by the interior minister of austria colony hama the austrian chancellor sebastien could says being chairing a meeting of emergency services he was involved in not just prior to the military being deployed to the streets of vienna as i said just at the top of my reports here we've also heard from the president of france. has tweeted out his condolences to the city of vienna in the austrian people following this attack as i said that as it stands at the moment one person is confirmed to have been killed 15 in the hospital some of those in a serious condition well one piece of information that came from the man of of vienna was that one of those perpetrators may have been wearing some kind of

explosive device that's still to be confirmed from the police and from security services you have now taken over this operation but this does appear to be a serious attack it's certainly a serious attack it's seems to be an ongoing investigation into what's happened and people on the streets of vienna we just heard from the professor that you spoke to before me they're being told to stay indoors lock their doors and we've seen videos from inside of bars and restaurants in which heavily armed security services wearing but balaklava is it going building to building searching to see if any of the perpetrators are still in the area of this attack that took place around 8 pm it all started people were out enjoying what was essentially supposed to be the last night before the new covert restrictions came into place in austria

a warm evening in the austrian capital. turned into a tragic event which is left as least one person confirmed dead many people wounded following multiple shooters multiple attackers heavily armed opening fire on crowds of people in vienna. still lots of information coming in from all sides that was peter all of a bring us up to speed on what is still a developing situation in the austrian capital many thanks peter 8. i also managed to speak to karen conies who is former austrian minister of foreign affairs and she gave me her reaction to these attacks. it's a shock about what is going on because we don't yet know what's true to follow to a mine and what exactly it's all about what my 1st impression is it's not in the evolution of the regime it looks more like an orchestrated i would say on the movie to hama that well prepared or polarization even still has lead to

my curfew lockdown people are not to be in the street after 8 o'clock anymore but it seems to be yeah you orchestrate it i want to also ask your local media so i mean the shooting happened near a synagogue now let's look back at what's been happening over the last couple of days and weeks we've seen for example how in the on that was a shooting attack on a greek orthodox priest we also saw all those washed in the basilica and nice being attacked do you think it's a coincidence that we're saying perhaps may be jewish people targeted. people who were targeted in france where churchgoing was a priest as you mentioned in the case and the attack in the end that apparently it all started 1st talking to synagogue in vienna which is which is rather well

guarded because it as being the target of terrorist attacks already back to the imagine eighty's. it's a fairly well guarded this straight. apparently i mean it's really too early to observe see anything of the motivation but yes this was talking because we speak well as a hostage taking as your colleague has already reported in another district the 1st target apparently was really the temple to synagogue. we also just talked about the way that all state deals with terrorist attacks you could say that also has been quite for. and that it has managed to avoid a serious incidents particularly and wrong and modern history do you think the police are not far she's ready for something like this police to special forces been trained for it's not only that they are trained on a national level. there's a right if. into service to agency corporation but of course

this is something that if it continues and if we see more at text popping up in the end or another part of last year that seems to be excluded of that and it's a different it's a different quality and i also want to just look at the white a picture here because as we were talking about the attacks in france not just to me all we had nice we had paris as well but the absolutely gruesome beheading of samuel patty and. in tears saying that more fronts increased its terror level we know but do you think this is not just a french problem this is actually an e.u. wide problem definitely it is that it's a large problem because. we know where some of the attacks that you preempt it. thanks to all efficient police cooperation thanks to last. identification

of potential terrorists well you cannot react each and every attack but. case apparently. to detect simply act on what you have seen in france where or when you made compare it now to due to the ongoing massacre that is aren't happening in the end it is it's of a different quality we had in transit what the reason there is attacks but as far as we know all right now from police in this again. people act it's rather isolated level my. feeling it almost seems from what is her. winning right now here in indiana it's it seems to be more closely to it it seems to be a larger group it's not just one person and maybe his brother and brother in law lives either acting here and there it's a bit more and. between what has happened in france and today

indiana we have seen over the last 2530 years a rise in terrorism we have seen all sort of liberation organizations for all over the world the middle east when they started death terrorism in the sixty's and seventy's there was a program back to again behind it they wanted to get what we have seen over the last decades what i would call war kind of needlenose them it's just lying lansford it's a. little to detect in terms of a program it's really just the bult spreading fear spread into iraq while this shooting in austria comes as france is dealing as we were talking about with karren a spate of violent attacks of its own in the last few weeks the french president has announced a clampdown on radical islam following a wave of terror incidents and it sparked a war of words with turkey. if i spoke complicitous i understand and respect that

people might be shocked by the caricature was but i will never accept that someone can justify physical violence because of them i will always defend my country's freedom to speak to write think and draw this. so we see the countries that teach the world about human rights and democracy take go ahead and islamophobia and xenophobia a fight needs to be put up against and to move them sentiment today just as a battle was waged against and to some it is more in the wake of the holocaust. along with turkey muslim nations including pakistan and bangladesh have called for a boycott of french products that have been major bodies in those countries and also in yemen with actually the front flag being set alight this comes after the french government shut down muslim aid groups on the major mosque following a series of tragic stabbings and shootings.

we are at war against terrorism terrorism can always strike there is no 0 risk and the state is doing its utmost to protect the french people. the french demand justice who want these people to be deported to their country or legs so we are in a country that has witnessed atrocities great teachers being beheaded priests having less throats slit people are beheaded in a church that's not france and even if we take in all possible security measures peter's been able to come in with a knife to do his deadly deed 0 risk does not exist. there are i think

40000 churches in france we could put a 1000000 and a half soldiers there but that would not change the problem we counted someone who wants to kill someone else many countries especially in the middle east have taken measures against terrorists for knife attacks. when we discuss this was an in conflict with several of our guests on the program. the president a french president was very right to confirm that we stand for a secular state and for the freedom of speech in the secular state of france religion is seen as an opinion we need to address radical islam in france and we are in a war against radical islam and i don't think mr micro is going far enough you can never justify terrorism or violence of any sort so what is the issue with president micro on his war in islam is that it's a terminology that he's adopted produced and then murder has in which he tarnishes

every single stem and holds muslims responsible for the action of a small minority of terrorists nothing i actually know from crum is really attacking islam. of moderate muslims in france what what i think he's trying to do is say look we have a country here we have laws and regulations that we've built up over centuries and this is how this country works and actually go 3 ministers who have a completely different view of how they want life to be and maybe separate into their own type of society. france is probably not for them we need to deport foreigners who preach islam on our grounds we have radical in mom's preaching kleefisch is against islam or telegrams what you mean by the what i mean by that is by hate speech is against the western way of living against a securely way of living and we have men not shaking women's hands we have most

preaching for separate swimming 0 is we have young girls going being told to put on the veil disses not what we are listening to certainly the pen. says a lot is there nothing to take place that's stop tonight is to be and talking about you know what you talking about you just sound like as if you're talking from the national fruit and here gender of the far right we as muslims recognize we have a problem there. people among some it's said this there's a problem with people who are involved in terrorism he want to bring people decent people who are against terrorism come together let's do that but just do away with this rhetoric that we're hearing tonight mr shafiq you oughta know that many mosques in france are preaching and saying that the laws of the of the qur'an are superior to the loss of france which nice please no i have no answer for you and i didn't know any of your own.
