ah, his i was told that lines here one r t a french police officer, survived a stabbing thanks to his bullet proof vest in an incident or possibly being investigated as a possible act of terrorism. a back scene divisions swapping big protest in the united states saw through a court temporarily blocked the biden administration's plan to impose compulsory cobra shots on businesses and charged over the capitol hill. riots compares foul conditions in washington jail to that of guantanamo bay in the program. we speak with an investigative journalist who received the prisoners letter. i know that the january prisoners are being treated worse than those prisoners. that's what i'm

hearing from them. you're not allowed to have visitors and they're just being put in solitary confinement often. and iraq grapples with a security crisis off the deadly post election riots and a drones dr. supposedly targeting the prime minister as us combat troops head for the exit. we look at power levels between iraq and afghanistan. ah, your monday headlines live for moscow. it's good of you to join us here. we're not you international now. straight to the french riviera. it's where a fringe a police officer has survived a knife attack in the city of can. the officer, as we understand, was wearing a bullet proof vest and remains on the hood. but the interior ministry is reportedly saying this is well, possibly an act of terrorism. let's, i learn more about this right now. crossing live now to our correspondent in france . charlotte dubin ski. lottie. could you talk us through exactly what happened in

can and what's the reaction been so far? yes, that's why it's 6 30 am local time. this attack was carried out. we understand the police officer was in a vehicle just outside his police station and the attacker opened the door of the car and then attempted to stab the officer to death. now we understand at the office to survive without any injuries. as you mentioned, there, thanks to his bullet proof vests, but we do understand from sources on the ground that while that attack was attempted, the aggressor shouted that this was being done in the name of the muslim prophet. now we understand that a colleague of that police officer who is attacked aimed fire straight away at the attack, it severely injuring them and they are now said to be severely injured and being treated for that. are we understand that the attack is a 37 year old,

are with the original nationality of being algerian. and he said to have been unknown to the police before this incident. but because of the fact that the aggressor said that this attack was in the name of them was in prophet mohammed, this is not being treated as a possible terror incident. here in france, the i am at the interior minister shahan dominant has said that he is making his way at to can the policeman who was attacked with a knife was fortunately not physically injured. thank states bulletproof fest now this is not the 1st time we have seen an attack of this nature here in france just in april this year. so not too many months ago, a police officer administrative worker was stabbed to death just inside the secure area of a police station. you run booley,

or which is not too far from paris. and then in may. so less than a month later, there was another attempt on the life of a police officer at this time, leaving that opposite severely wounded. that took place in the city of north in western france. so we do get these attacks from time to time and back in 2019 in the october radicalized former. oh, i am radicalized. i see employee of the police station in paris, a killed 3 police officers and an administrative working. what was a terror attack? back then one of the worst attacks in sight, a police station where that took place now from morgan le pen from the national valley, who funks. she seems to be saddened that these attacks are becoming what she described as being normalized. i get the impression that this kinds of crimes are becoming usual as if it's some form of habit. i urge the french people not to get used to the situation. now france has been suffering from

a wave of violence in the last decade and attacks like this sharp. and the idea of people fearing that they could be further islamic attacks like the ones we saw back in 2015. but for the moment, this appears to be a lone wolf attack. it is being treated as a possible terrorist. incident of 37 year old man said to be of an algerian origin is now being treated for severe injuries after attempting to stab a police officer in can on monday morning. i saw his thanks for that. the biden administrations pushed full mandatory covert vaccinations has exposed an enormous divide across america over the weekend on appeals court temporarily blocked the government's job requirement for businesses with that certainly didn't stop people from taking to the streets. ah,

ah, the contested vaccine minded would apply to, well, all u. s. businesses with at least a 100 employees at a time of high infection rates were averaging $73000.00 per day of vaccines are already obligatory for public officials. and despite a federal appeals court blocking the private sector requirement, the surgeon general insists that measures a needed the president. indeed, ministration wouldn't have put these requirements in place if they didn't think that they were appropriate and necessary. and the administration is certainly prepared to disband them for all those promises of healing. biden's america has become a tend to box rife with anger and division. and the latest vaccine mandate was just the thing to spock. the fire this mandate is unconstitutional,

unlawful and dumb weiss, so bite and vaccine. monday is a shocking invasion of medical privacy and individual liberty and we will not stand for it. i'm exploring every legal option to defend the rights of north carolines against this unconstitutional monday. with president biden's plan to mandate vaccination in or u. s. companies with over 100 employees. more than 2 dozen states have now come out swinging, determined to protect the rights of 84000000 walkers. but what was extraordinary was that buried and got red? was a blue state, new hampshire, and among all the attorney generals who fall to no food was a democrat from iowa. this was no longer some protest on the street. this was no longer about loyalty to one's party. this was the country, big guns from both sides of the aisle coming out proclaiming we the people say, no. a court has now frozen the mandate nationwide. that's concern. it's an

overreach. what about individual liberty? what about the constitution? what's about a president's promise? no, i don't think it should be really the tour. i wouldn't demand to be mandatory, but i would do everything in my power just like i don't think mask has to be made mandatory nationwide. i'll do everything in my power as far as united states to encourage people to do the right thing. turns out though, the man who didn't believe in mandates has turned into a big fond of them fast for federal employees and now for private ones. heads mosque up, get job, do you might be out of the job. now you'd think that being sued by more than half the country states would dump and you'll spirits, but no, the white house is still feeling good. a, just the administration over dyslexia requirement for offers at like companies i'd like to get your response to that and also help with

for so we are very confident that it can now biden insists he's acting according to international medical guidance. the vaccine is the only way out of the pandemic. i view shed by many, but the timing is bad. discussions of to job will not have reached fever pitch. mm. from california to mississippi. angry citizens have flaunted the streets something they'll never vote democrat again, others, but they'd rather be unemployed than give out that freedoms. then you look at the recent elections, a litmus test of the bite and presidency. the democrats took a beating and what many say is a bad omen for the mid toms next year? it's been a bumpy few months and for some that's just one person to play. nobody likes to

seem to be franklin d, roosevelt. they'll act as him to be normal and sub the kaos. you know, under his administration, the cdc said that anybody who's vaccinated shouldn't wear mask, and then they did the hokey pokey and said no, no, you do up to where a mass they have said that boosters were not necessarily going to be thing and mandates not going necessarily going to be a thing and now we have both boosters and mandate. so if he goes back on this, it will, i think, a road, some of the confidence that biden came in with, remember, he was partly elected because he was the adult in the room. he was somebody for whom was a political veteran that would not see a new problem and therefore would be able to handle it better than the bull in the china shop that donald trump was. if he doesn't show com, even handed leadership on this, and i don't think he particularly has on this or many other things. then he's going to continue to see his approval rating a road like it is right now when it's under water by nearly 10 points. the white

house at odds with the states, the republicans taking on the democrats. so, democrats timing on cobra and the facts surrounding on the and faxed, like i said, for all those promises of healing looks like it's a long johnny to the united states living up to its name. so obviously there's still loads of disagreement over the issue of cobra. shots, but the world health organization maintains the vaccinations on natural immunity of the primary tools in fighting cove. it well the actual pressure is certainly taking a toll on president biden's approval rating. it's down to 37 percent, meaning 60 percent disapprove, and there's another cloud hanging over that of the administration, the ongoing detention of pro trump rioters. one capitol hill detainee has spoken out against the conditions in washington dc jail, even comparing it to the infamous guantanamo bay when he wrote a letter to an investigative journalist to reach out to us here at auntie for the

1st 120 days in d. c. get mo jansicks is experienced daily locked down for 23 to 24 hours before being allowed to leave our small $120.00 square foot. so the extreme medical neglect of this facility has caused a variety of adverse illnesses and disease. some show signs of scurvy and some even have covered like symptoms, but medical personnel have refused to treat it. and on at least 5 occasions, raw sewage has overflowed our units, causing human fecal matter to flood the flaws and rooms you sent it directly to me . i have been keeping in touch with many of the prisoners that are in washington dc right now, many political prisoners in the united states. and i keep in touch with them. they tell me their stories. and he wrote me a letter that i could release it to the public that they would see what was going on right now in that prison. i know that the january prisoners are being treated worse than most prisoners. that's what i'm hearing from them, that they don't have the same rights as all the prisoners in the jail,

and that they're not be given any access to adequate medical care. they're not allowed to have visitors. correspondence with their attorneys, not lawyers, are being monitored and they're just being put in solitary confinement, often with no accountability whatsoever. and what's so different about the january 6 prisoners is they haven't been convicted of a crime. so these not are being punished for crimes that they will never connected up yet. and the some of them don't have trial. they even set to possibly 2023 for some very small crimes. so they're going to be waiting while waiting trial in detention for many years before they actually see their day in court. that's what's different about these prisoners. the regular prisoners, mr. de grave has been charged on numerous calls, including civil disorder and acts of violence. he claims to have gone into the capital building to make a documentary, and he was arrested on january 28th so far. no trial debt has been set. on january

the 6th, several 100 trump support a storm the capital building in washington. many of them were angry about the result of a 2020 election. hale fletcher, 5 death, including one police officer, he dozens more injured. as we understand here with see almost $700.00 people so far being charged in connection with the riots. and more than a 100 are still being held in the prison or the us marshall's service. so decided to do a surprise visit to that prison off the defendants complained of poor conditions. it resulted in $400.00 inmates being transferred, although none of them would generate 6 detainees. a car customer over again. so the defendants just are not being treated fairly at all. i think they should check out the prison, very alarming that that washington dc jail is, is treating american faces the way that they are are the bad. the terrible thing is they're removing $400.00 prisoners because they're, they've admitted that washington, d. c is not trading citizen properly,

but they are not removing any of the january 6 defending they're, they're saying they're removing other people. but the january defendants have to stay there in nice condition that it can happen to these people that can happen to anybody in america. and this is a very dangerous time that we have to stand by our fellow citizens and demand that they have their constitutional right to a fair trial with speedy trial, to be able to be bailed out of jail. we have sent a request to the us marshall's service and the washington prison itself for comment on the decision not to move any of the january 6. defendants will let you know what kind of response we get from them to come to our here on our team. to national us combat troops of filing out of iraq, against a backdrop of deadly riots and an alleged attempt on the prime minister's life. and we'll be looking at similarities with afghanistan on just a moment. but when our large group of migrant sisters crossed from bella, ruth's into poland, according to the bella,

russian border service and the following. some of it still unverified. hundreds of people were filmed, heading to poland. and most of them i believe, to be from the middle east, a thousands have made the same journey in recent months, but poland is describing the latest influx as the largest. yet, the e you is accused of a well deliberately sending refugees over, in revenge for sanctions. the claim that men's denies the scottish ballet has stirred controversy by altering key elements from his not to crack up performance, which has been running for half a century. this comes off the claims of racial stereotypes and the chinese and arabic. don says we're picking up the story for us as archie contributor laura chen, seeing as how the nutcracker is a holiday favorite. in many countries, most of us are likely familiar with it. stories and similarly likely confused by how anybody could possibly consider it racist.

ah, well, it turns out that the racism in the ballet actually refers to 2 very specific dances that take part in the 2nd act. you see, while clara and the prince are in the land of sweets, they witness different dances that are each meant to represent a different desert delicacy from around the world. there is a russian dance that is meant to represent candy canes, a spanish dance that is meant to represent chocolate and apparently problematically . the ballet also features an arabian dance for coffee at a chinese dance to represent t. now, many different choreography is for the nutcracker exists, and every single production of the ballet does feature different direction. and different costumes for the dancers, for the common theme is that for all of these different dances, spanish, chinese, arabian, and russian, the audience is supposed to get a sense of each country's unique,

aesthetic. and this is surprising to you. keep in mind that this is the same ballet company who last year also said that quote, we have examined our 50 year history, which we are aware includes outdated and racist autistic content. now the steam and the actions taken by the scottish ballet are confusing for many reasons. first off, in what way is it races to portray a cultures? most recognizable attributes. it is true that stereotypes can sometimes be racist, but if a stereotype is merely an accurate portrayal of a country's customs, why is it automatically racist? what's also a very strange choice by this ballet company is to cast both males and females in the role of draw sal meyer, why the need to introduce a gender bent? draw sal meyer. what does that add to the story? the answers to those questions remain to be seen, but certain. is that in 2021? not even ballet is safe from the p. c. police? well, it doesn't stop there. there's another story revolving around, woke no syndic quality in scotland after the break aeronautics will bring you

parents, reactions off to their sons were asked to come to school and wearing cisco web back in just a minute. ah, is your media a reflection of reality? in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? high selection, whole community. are you going the right way or are you being led somewhere? direct. what is true? wharf is faith. in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the

shallows. join me every thursday on the alex, simon, sure. but i'll be speaking to guess in the world of politics, sport, business, i'm show business. i'll see you then. ah ah so 20 past the hour here at most go let's update you with the latest from iraq. it's where the prime minister claims he knows who tried to kill him on sunday. and his pledge to expose the culprits this office several drones bombed his residence. a security is being ramped top with helicopters flying over baghdad, an army vehicles deployed on the streets. the extra forces have also been sent to

the green zone, where the prime ministers, residents is located. we can show you some of the damage are left by the drone bombing, which came days off to a deadly riots against the parliamentary election that's widely been denounced as rigged. as we understand 7 security guards were wounded in the drone incident with the interior ministry calling it a terrorist attack. although the opposition suggesting that may actually have been a provocation by the government to justify a crackdown or the united states was the 1st country to condemn the alleged attempt on the prime minister's life. but a time when the remaining us callback forces are due to leave a rock by the end of the year, our correspondent are eager to stand off. looks at the parallels between iraq and afghanistan. there's riots, there's tear gas. there's life gunfire. iraq continues its descent into security chaos. following the latest parliamentary vote ah,

iraq's intelligence headquarters is shelled. it's pro american prime minister is targeted by a grown assassination attempt. this is what's left over his home in the most secure haven of baghdad. the attempt that got washington very anxious we are following the reported drone attack. this apparent act of terrorism which was strongly condemn, was directed at the heart of the rock estate. our commitment to our iraqi partners is unshakable, the another se sense with the government and people for rock. all this just over a month since america started to withdraw its combat forces from the country, and the polar has already vote some morbid flashbacks in the white house. to this day, the withdrawal from afghanistan is tanking jo biden's political school. yet the president found of no better time to embark on

a similar mission just in iraq. i think things are going well or role in iraq is just to be available to continue to train to assist to help them to deal with isis . right. but we are not going to be brought in here. and america's relationship with iraq has been eerily similar to the one with of gaston security forces, fully equipped and trained by american specialists, pro washington leadership, a whole generation of locals who don't remember their lives without us forces in the country forces that invaded under the pretext of hunting down the bad guys. all these statements apply perfectly to both of gaston and iraq countries turned by the us into test sites for its nations building ambitions. our mission in iraq is clear, were hunting down the terrace. we're helping iraqis build

a free nation. that is an ally in the war on terror. we know that true peace will only be achieved when we give the afghan people the means to achieve their own aspirations. piece piece will be achieved by helping afghanistan develop its own stable government. osama bin laden escaped american bounty hunters by adding to pakistan. the infamous anthro exclaims, and saddam hussein's links to the $911.00 attacks turned out to be fake news. the u . s. military found itself bogged down in nations in tatters, to decades on as it prepares to pull out statements of reassurance come out of washington. the very same old song had during the african withdrawal. iraq essential to the u. s. vision for a stable middle east. iraq is not have gunston. we're here for the long term with you. iraq is a key strategic partner and we're committed to this partnership world cobbled,

succumb to the taliban in a matter of days. no, not a single us intelligence agency. so that coming or that doesn't provide much backing to the claims that the true pull out from iraq, this time will end up just fine. i cell is already taking advantage of the strain security capability of the taliban rule in afghanistan. iraq is isis cradle. nobody wants to see another nation in the region crumble under the weights of a decades long string of 4 choices. make thousands of miles away. a primary school in edinburgh has asked boys on male teachers to wear skirts for a day to promote gender equality. and it's certainly got a mixed response from parents. extremely creepy. so please haven't got any children go into that school. hope authorities are contacted about this disgusting decision. my son goes to the school and decided he wanted to wear

a skirt and support this kids should be praised. not frowned on. i can't believe the val single minded comments that some people have made. thankfully my kids and not parts of your school. you should keep your deranged thoughts to yourself and not thrust them on to primary school children, shameful behavior. while duncan of you, proud of my daughter and her friends for asking for this, they are more mature than a lot of the narrow minded hate thrown at them to day. brilliant school working towards teaching inclusivity for all. we can show you here on the program, several of the male teachers at castle fuel school in edinburgh went along with the idea. it was inspired by the wear a skirt to school day in spain, held as a protest after a 15 year old and built bow was expelled for wearing one. castle view says it's all about freedom of expression where keen to spread the message that clothes don't have a gender and that we should all be free to express ourselves as we choose. however,

richard lucas, the leader of the scottish family party, believed the initiative will only increase the already large number of children who suffer from gender confusion. what's happening in western culture at the moment just there is a move to see any gender distinction as a problem. as to try and subvert it over comments. and while we're another, are now to say whether or not the end result. my reports were nicely off really probably isn't positive in most cases. trying to use children as part of that process at a stage where there is where skirts are clearly seen as female clerk. and so you're saying through a boy, basically dresses a girl. that's very helpful because gender confusion is an epidemic in the western world. remember, there's a massive increase in the number of children or young people who ran, experiencing gender confusion. there have been referred to clinics going on to various circle treatments. it's a problem the complied them through the rest of the life. according to the school

principal, the request came from the students. she posted some of their letters online to show that i one girl rode that she heard about the bill bow case and wanted her school to have a wear a skirt stay to the edinburgh city council. has spoken out in support of the school stressing, no one was forced to wear a skirt. richard lucas, again, things children are being used to advance the school and perhaps even the nations woke agenda. this impression that this came from the children is basically dishonest. this is a young children, the lead by the teacher and the direction the teacher wants to lead the math. and then basically the staff, a dishonest in claiming that this came from be the children in some sort of organic manner, didn't at all. it's the stuff using the children to advance their own agenda. this is a state school or government schools and soften, which is why you know, over 90 percent of children go to. then they all have to have this sort of l g b, t inclusive education approach. so parents can't opt out of this by choosing

a different school because all schools have best the through gender algebra, etc, agenda. and it's been pushed on to our to young people. they're frightened to send the children to school because of their just sheer indoctrination that will take place. um oh i thought the news cost of his half hour here. one auto international with me roll re sushi, wrapping it up. thank you for sharing a time with us. here at moscow union o'neill here at the desk at the top of the hour. hope you can join him. 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. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk

with time after time senior. what's going on the ground coming up with the shoke, the turn of the horn of africa, or amidst in ethiopia, in state of emergency, we talk to neighboring a retreat as you and ambassadors. sophia tests were marian about the biden administration's destabilizing military, economic and propaganda influence on peace of the nature of defeat in afghanistan, iraq, libya, and syria. and after that suspicious lebanese port exp.
