the possibility of state sanctioned manslaughter it wasn't an accident policing in our country is inherently and intentionally racist done to right was met with aggression and violence i'm done with those who condone government funded murder no more policing incarceration and military zation it can't be reformed the police are once again the target of concentrated rage from black lives matter and its allies nothing we're seeing much happening in the way of actual police reform or some change happening but for the most part the use of the street level at the point where people get a reaction with the police were seen very little at the end of the day the police continue slaughtering american citizens on the streets on a daily basis i don't think that it's so much that people hate the police so much as the people he used by the police and the lack of accountability that characterizes the american police a significant portion of. the citizenry are basically tired of this of this mom

stopped and will slaughter the reputation of the law enforcement is once again in the spotlight with the unrest now growing many wonder how much of the community will get destroyed in the coming outrage but analysts wave of protests and looting sparked by the very same people expected to defend us citizens. r.t. new york. the muslims in france are accusing the government of trying to control every aspect of their lives from what they wear to how they school their children it's fire a bill recently adopted in the 1st reading in the senate the stated aim of this draft floor is to bolster republican principles and to combat combat separatist tendencies. picks up the story. france's plans to defeat separatism have already caused alarm bells to ring particularly amongst the muslim community they've said that the north seeks to divide and could provoke hatred of muslims now

the country's senate has voted to make an already controversial bill well explosive in a bid to fight against extremism senators adopted measures including a ban on parents wearing visible religious symbols if their company children are old school trips essentially a ban on he jabs turbans or skull caps the book he would be banned public swimming pools prayers would be banned on the university premises so too would any display of a foreign flag at a wedding are listed up was the reaction was next and look you can no longer speak of a functioning democracy in france given all these measure is this if you don't mean a minority but more generally these laws are best they apply to everyone so yes there is a state of excitement for the left and the human rights and the centrist.
7:07 am
government that you have with him only with michael opening. the gates of hell against human rights and civil liberties in france who look at the situation and say france is not a war was going by petition this is definitely a political. war i guess the text also mentions a ban 1 on young girls wearing a hijab in public places that sparked a flurry of anger on social media sparking the hash tag hands off my job france will host the generation equality forum later this year but at the same time its legislators continue to entrench the rights of muslim women stop treating women as a 2nd ignorant class women can dress the way they want. and the hitch a ban is not on the offensive to muslim women it's offensive to all women what is the difference between those who are imposed. as the city government and women like that but he goes afghanistan and the people who want to impose that up with women
7:08 am
what they can wear i cannot wear i see absolutely no difference so in the case of muslim women there are seen either as victims that the white men should and if she says but go this is my body and i should decide to when i want to wear and what not to wear she is treated as a kurd prince and i was a 9 of the most obscurities or the most for the work that is forces and there was also a last minute amendment that was our did by the interior minister i requested by president mcewan that will allow authorities to stop of foreign organizations from setting up private schools in france what's happening today is a we see a really good look at the game any time freedom benefits muslims of which they change the rules of the games in order for muslims to be that conflict with us in order for them to not profit off. the quality of brotherhood so no one floor this
7:09 am
is an open war i just look at the proposed to the north has also been condemned by human rights groups such as amnesty international this proposed law would be a serious attack on rights and freedoms in france he would allow public authorities to fund only organizations which sign a contract of republican commitment a vaguely defined concept which is wide open to abuse and threatens the very freedoms of expression and association the french authorities claim to stand for the bill isn't yet certain to pass in its current form there are still discussions to be had which could see that some of these controversial amendments would be dropped in the future but it comes at a time when muslims say that they already. feel stigmatised and there is real concern that this secular push could be weaponized by extremist groups. u.s. health authorities are advising against the use of johnson and johnson's code vaccine
7:10 am
after 6 recipients in the country developed blood clots the american pharma giant says it is aware of the red disorder and has now decided to delay the vaccines rollout in europe peter oliver takes us through the developments. johnson and johnson have described this as a proactive delay to their vaccine being rolled out across the european union they had expected that they would be giving vaccines to people 'd by the end of this week however that is not going to happen it follows a move by regulators in the united states to suspend the use of the vaccine there after 6 people who would have the vaccine developed what's called a rare blood clotting disorder out of an abundance of caution the city see an f.d.a. have recommended a pause in the use of our vaccine in addition we've been reviewing these cases with european health authorities we have made the decision to proactively delay the
7:11 am
rollout of our vaccine in europe but this news comes after the european continent has passed a grim milestone on monday that $52.00 countries that make up the european landmass passed $1000000.00 deaths in total now in the european union the $27.00 member states there they're paying close attention to what's happening when it comes to this johnson and johnson suspension the vaccine program in europe of course hasn't been well particularly successful at least certainly not particularly quick and there's a lot of criticism of it i don't think there's any doubt there is. if you really wanted to use all the words there's not enough. supply it's i mean the moment figures as you probably know yourself and i think you're one of us are almost impossible to to make sense of it how many people have been infected here in germany the talk has been less about vaccines and more about lockdowns in
7:12 am
particular who has the power to lock down german chancellor angela merkel wants to have more power to do just that we live in. the uniform national right emergency brake is overdue because even though it's. to hear this again the situation is serious and our vets have to take it seriously well the idea of taking power away from the local authorities and giving it to hasn't gone down well with some germans . i think it's nonsense on a national level complete nonsense the region should decide for themselves and to put the whole country in lockdown a curfew i think is completely exaggerated from the bull's eye like the end of the day i think these measures soul coming too late i think it solves of that of the served to them i mean the state has spoken so often in many places especially in the area of testing creating testing capacity and so on as if in this country well
7:13 am
i think it's terrible when one person here decides what we have to do and what we don't have to do and that's a very very scary for me the move has to be voted through the bundestag parliament here in germany there's no exact time frame set for that just yet but those in the know are talking about it happening before the end of this week peter all of the reporting there now with the suspension of the johnson and johnson jabs europe's already faltering vaccine rollout has suffered another major blow and even before the announcement the mayors of 2 italian towns had decided to take matters into their own hands they've written to the neighboring republic of san marino asking it to provide their residents with brushes with the vaccine but my trade state which isn't the member and doesn't need the european medical agency's approval has been used in the jab since late february summering officials hope to reach herd immunity by the end of may with the vaccine the mayors of san leo and cutting are no meanwhile told is that they can't afford to wait for approval and need to do what's
7:14 am
best for their residents. so you know somebody or certainly you and san marino brother towns that have been friends for more than a 1000 years we wrote this letter because many italian citizens work in the republic of san marino and we requested to use the sputnik vaccine to protect our citizens who work in san marino it is obvious that our citizens in fact do live together in for many hours a day it was natural for me to ask my friends in san marino to use the sputnik the vaccine which had been available for many weeks in san marino and the results were excellent i'm sure some reno politicians are considering the possibility of quickly accepting arab request especially considering the news that the johnson and johnson vaccine rollout is now blocked by the united states and 200000 doses arriving in italy held up at customs europe is now like a big mammoth it's a very slow bureaucratic system and when an emergency occurs like the one we're
7:15 am
seeing now we can't think of a peacetime bureaucracy we have to speed up the procedures we have to expand horizons and look at the experience of others in a short time russia has managed to create an effective vaccine that is used in more than 60 countries around the world but almost 3000000000 people live. in this difficult here we have realized that the only response to the pandemic worldwide is a vaccine ordinary citizens do not care where italy gets the vaccines from they interested in the fact that there is a solution from a practical point of view in terms of saving human lives thus the sooner we have vaccinate all our citizens the sooner we can get back on track including from an economic point of view europe has decided to develop a common strategy and that is why we're lagging behind where very late and that is why it is my duty as mayor to give concrete answers and solutions to the citizens i
7:16 am
usually say that i'm a rural mayor who needs short answers to quest. ns of all the world economy i have many appointments after the news spread that san marino was able to give the vaccine even to 16 year olds my phone started ringing with calls asking me to do something for my citizens and this is what i am doing the vaccine from russia has been tested and they can see that the citizens of san marino are all feeling well after the vaccines i hope that our letter will help speed up the process of getting the vaccine the e.u. inspectors are already in russia so i hope they don't waste time on and list paperwork because we have lost a lot of time where not ready for the 3rd wave of coronavirus if russia can produce a vaccine for italy as well why not our government should think about the talents 1st. remark italian government's efforts to avoid a fresh spike in the pandemic has pushed the owners of pressure drums to close for in dining on to the streets they clashed with police were 2nd day running they want
7:17 am
the lockdown to be lifted saying they need to start working again in order for them to survive as things stand cafes and restaurants aren't going to reopen until the end of the month at the latest rally protestors waved colorful pants in the air with the slogan we have nothing but our underwear left state support has been made available truth business is in lockdown but the protesters claim this isn't actually reaching them. we're still living on the little money we made during the summer it's not possible to work only one month per year and have to stay closed for the remaining months because distance and rigid rules whoever does not respect them can be expelled but we must work we can't wait anymore we have all the laws are we need to work with a word let us work does not arrive with you during the state of emergency you collect the money in advance from our taxes they've already reserved for themselves the aid money. now fake news or

a failure to fact check the accusation moscow has laid its cnn's door after the channel broadcast a video that supposedly shows russia bolstering its military presence along the border with ukraine. the cell phone footage is a merge of armored columns like this one. and of military hardware being transported by rail towards the border. ok let's go through those claims then the railway station you can see here which c.n.n. said is in russia it's actually located in eastern ukraine eastern ukraine it is in the 4th largest city of dinette pro and you can see the same roof and columns in this photo of the station as the train itself it has the same blue and yellow design of other ukrainian trains while on the exterior of the carriage you can clearly see 2 ukrainian insignia well as for the tanks moving past in the video they are of solve it era type tanks still in wide spread use around the world
7:19 am
russia's foreign ministry had this message for the broadcaster d.s. in hand and it's friendly team we understand that you have no time for fact checking that you are so deeply involved in the ideological struggle for the triumph of liberalism but not that deep to present ukrainian tanks at the ukrainian station with the ukrainian train behind as the background for russia preparing for war but it was at the end of last month that the situation in the conflict zone known as the donbass region once again began to escalate ukraine and the self-proclaimed republics of donetsk and lugansk blame each other for the intensifying of military activities in the area at the same time kiev has accused moscow of increasing its military presence near the border the kremlin though responded by saying it can do what it wants within its own territory or c.n.n. has now deleted the photo of the tanks from its website although the video reports
7:20 am
can still be found online we have contacted the network asking for comment legal and media and this line all says that it is likely c.n.n. will turn a blind eye to the mistake. it's pathetic it is journalistic malpractise nonfeasance misfeasance there is no excuse to get the the only innocent 2 parties to get them correct i mean this is the they should be if this was the real world they should be horrified heads should roll but you know what's going to happen i. think. nobody cares you know why and this is very interesting because it's c.n.n. is there ineptitude is there excuse it's there there kevil are there

a reflection of the politicized ocean the increasing politicized ocean of intelligence every works whether it's in america or whether it's who or whether it's in israel. because you you heard in the past people like me or the guard. who are used to lowered. but i mean he was very tough where netanyahu originally wanted to take action against iran i mean he just said no or unsoldered the head of the security service and they said absolutely not it would be a great mistake strategic mistake for israel to tack iran like a knol saw what we have is your c. cohen as you head out who's a great fan of netanyahu. you know is someone who wants to make his career out of tackling iraq become the entry probably to put his hat in the ring to be prime minister of israel. now the family of
