recalled a conversation grendel was having about his viewpoint on the idea that germans could have dual citizenship and you know according to. my thinking about this conversation makes them sick and it's cringe worthy you know so you have these factored in and it kind of follows suit to how this is played out because grendel has had if you know kind of two different responses and something to follow what does this say about the state of integration and i think the fact i think this is coming on we have this play. who says he's not comfortable wearing a german jersey he is determined and this is like a very big question for me it's a scandal because you know is the person you look up to in germany is the person who took all possible prizes concerning integration he was a very important team and team member in the in the munch of he is an idol for up to few young people with who has a migrant background and now he the one you look up to is saying this so what about the others who is the whole we do you look to and always when you talk in german about integration you always mention the mun

but at the gym he crashed out of the world cup group stage grendel got tough demanding issue a statementwhen it came to the queues drainville of outright racism brindle is now under pressure ahead of september's vote between germany and turkey over the hosting of euro two thousand and twenty four germans are now wondering if grandel is heading for the exit. let me bring you some spectacular pictures from the world of kitesurfing italian add on the cons aledo course a freak gust of wind at the competition off the spit spanish canary island a foot of until he ended up flying for just one nineteen seconds such a long flight is almost unheard of in the sport unfortunately for cons alina he could not follow it up in later rounds and he finished. wonderful pitches and talking about flying monica is with me and if i were to fly on a holiday i shouldn't take. to today and tomorrow it could be tricky i'm rita and there's a very good reason for that for one ryan air has warned that there might be around three hundred potential job cuts for pilots and capping crew as the carrier plans to cut its do

football association that if the seems to have sidestepped mezzo as its criticisms of its president grendel by saying that the organization is not racist yes they did say they believe me touch on something they did mention prior to disclose that you know saying that they're not racist they did say that you know they acknowledge the fact that there are self-critical and didn't really handle the post photo situation properly but in regards to the races claims are saying the d.s.p. has been long associated with our ambassadors we have a very diverse situation over here and more importantly that they have an integration they've worked on integration efforts in germany they have one program called one zero to open arms a campaign that really encourages integration and things like this so they're basically covering you know their tracks and just trying to let the world know that you know mesut ozil is his comments might not be takin. against the way he intended it in terms of the german football association thing to hear that because i talk to the people in the streets in berlin and they say they

scapegoat a reason why they crashed out so early so basically it comes down to as it will calling grendel a hypocrite because he's saying we had a conversation about this and we say if we focus on football then after they crash out windows says hey where's a statement and he did at that you know i'm speaking now not for grenoble because i want to and it's time so basically he says pointing the finger right hard griddle. wedges is one of where does it leave young people with immigrant roots in germany is that a wonder that they will think twice about playing for any german national team i think that yes there is there should be some concern about that because you have to consider the population that has a multicultural background similar to is il there are a lot of young up and coming footballers that are given a choice to make you know it comes to a crossroad where they choose to play for germany or do i play you know from other nations that i also share citizenship and i'm thinking that they would choose the latter because in predicament this. commit to those your hero turkish might just

into of racism the federation has since defend itself but its president has said nothing reinhart grendel was appointed the german football federation president in two thousand and sixteen brought in as a crisis manager to sort out the chaos left by allegations germany had bought votes to host the two thousand and six world cup but now another crisis is a reason and this time grendel is at the very heart of the message of fair. i just do not see a clear professional handling of the crisis at the moment it doesn't surprise me though because the german football federation is actually full of armor shoes. grindle has been a lawyer and a journalist he also spent fourteen years in the german parliament for angela merkel's christian democrats and one said that multiculturalism was a myth comments that would come back to haunt him when ms it isn't jimmy teammate one met turkish president richard tayyip erdogan. i believe that both are aware that they have made a mistake i encourage everyone to go easy on them. but after germany crashed out of the world cup group stage grindle got tough demanding

of the backlash you know it even came from the german football association the president richard grendel actually urged him to explain his actions you know and the general managers well beer off actually suggested that should have been left off of the squad he's basically been labeled a scapegoat and a reason for germany's premature exit out of the world cup you know but i think he has a lot to say this one post you touched on was the first of three he's already released his second post and it just extended basically he just discussed he will not accept the idea that all fingers are pointed at him he is deafening at the scapegoat the idea that his heritage plus a photo equals a bad world cup in his mind is ridiculous he feels there's a double standard with in the german football association you know it looks like he he's even going to save the best for last if you read anyone i would suggest anyone out there to follow him on twitter and read up exactly all of his posts thus far but he's just you know trying to. i guess stand up for himself in a sense because no one really stood up for hi

he also says in the eyes of grendel and to supporters and that he's german when he wins but he's an immigrant when he loses these are incredibly strong statements that he's making and he also mentions the fact that he is very proud to be german and also he's very proud of his turkish heritage that he's been brought up to be proud of where he's from and also to be proud of his family too and he also poses the question is it has it got something to do with the fact that he is muslim and he mentions that too and he also does not mince his words about. political past and mentioning that during his time a member of parliament for the c.d.u. and he was very much against for example june. we're talking about germany and the german national football team which is a team which has people from all walks of life. like in germany and in france there is you know there are many players whose parents are one parent or both parents perhaps are not german or not french for example so he's raising some seriously big issues here not just about football but also deeper issues within how immigrants are treated he

around for implied racism and on the other hand comments like mr grendel's essentially make that politically acceptable and therefore a lot of concern among politicians within the opposition within the social democratic party did have used chief political correspondent melinda crane for us melinda thank you very much. not to some other stories making news around the world u.s. president donald trump has lashed out at iran's hasan rowhani on twitter he warned the iranian president not to threaten the u.s. or quote suffer consequences the likes of which few throughout history have ever suffered before trump's tweet came hours after rouhani said hostile u.s. policy towards iran could lead to the mother of all wars. police say two people are dead and thirteen more wounded after a mass shooting in downtown toronto the gunman opened fire in the city's greektown neighborhood on sunday night before being killed in a shootout with police a young girl remains in critical condition police say it is too early to tell whether the shooting is terrorism related. militants in the northern iraqi city of air

far more interested in speaking about his own political views he went on to say that in the eyes of grendel and his supporters he's german only when he wins but he's an immigrant when he loses that these are incredibly strong statements what he's saying because he's bringing in many other elements he's talking about multiculturalism he's talking about the fact he also says that whilst critical was a member of the german parliament as a member of the c.d.u. he brings of the fact that he was very much against jewel citizenship or to nationality will say which let's not forget those represent germany but he is very proud also of his turkish heritage and he also says that in his statement so he has really caused a massive shock in what he said because he is he also and before i forget mentions the fact that he asked the question is it because he is muslim so you know there's going to be. a lot of reaction to this in the coming days and hours that's for sure ok and reaction is exactly what i want to hear from you so was all of this the release to this statement in english already a statement on

premature exit from this year's world cup the president of the german football association richard grendel was urging him to explain his actions and even a step further the general manager of the b. the german football association as it's known was saying in hindsight the arsenal star should have been left off the roster altogether so i think that someone close to him got to him and gave him a bit of advice how to maybe alleviate some of this criticism he's been receiving and i think his message you know spoke loud and clear as he stated the obvious there that he's turkish and german is well he has two hearts and i think he expressed himself well in that matter and so do you think that was good advice so to speak out right now do you think that will leave it some of the criticism or will it will it still could again yeah i think it's a band-aid situation you know i think it least it will satisfy the president of the german football association but in all honesty his actions on the team will have to have some success you know because everyone's pretty disappointed that the defending world c

there's a really strong words on twitter criticizing the president of this organization reinhard grendel by name what is beef with reinhard what's going on ok so after the photo according to the post via twitter ms it was a supposed he was asked requested to come back from the echo show him love and explain himself in berlin and he had a conversation according to the post with grendel and he felt that he was being the little you know his turkish heritage he tried to explain himself but he felt it was ill felt a gringo was more interested in expressing his own political views and he said that they agreed to focus on football that ms it was it will focus on football so obviously we do know that after germany crashed out. randall made it very clear that he was demanding some public explanation from as it was ill so according to clearly there is some hypocrisy there because it sounds like the conversation already took place they agreed that they will not discuss anything and matter of fact lee says it was it was actually not in a press conference shortly after this photo was taken so he woul

at the head of the german football federation via not grendel has rejected allegations of racism by foreign nationals there. but in this first public statement since retired from the german national team during the admitted to making mistakes in his handling of the controversy over photos with the turkish president. he said he should have done more to protect the midfielder from discriminatory abuse images of that meeting emerge in the run up to germany's world cup campaign. by munich have announced their first purchase of the season seventeen year old canadian alfonzo davis and the defending distinct champions call the window a big talent with a very promising future ahead of him davis been joined by nine in january after seeing the m.l.s. season with his current club vancouver whitecaps the transfer fee is reported to be around thirteen million here. and talking about millions joins me. not just the u.s. and the e.u. we're talking trade when the millions billions are at stake and rita everybody is interested in it and the topic of trade certainly and terrorism has been getting plenty of a

reinhard grand zero zero zero zero was part of germany's group stage exit to the world cup and things grendel believes he's german when germany wins and an immigrant when they lose lewis hamilton went from fourteenth to first to win the german grand prix in spectacular fashion victory means the mercedes driver has regained the formula one championship lead after ferrari sebastian vettel crashed out of the race so how moloch reports. you'd be forgiven for thinking that you used to come back into the stadium standing up just behind the bust invented in poland the german grand prix but it's actually hamilton's team and valtteri bottas. the reigning world champion starting all the way back in fourteenth sport due to a hydraulic problem which wrecked his qualifying but home to didn't take long to make up ground he moved into sixth place with fifty five laps lift to catch the risk. the race was heavily impacted by work conditions and why look like the best investor had everything under control he messed up on fifty two. of the four time world champion crushing out squandering the opportunity to ext

president and it is also what i thought was a very telling comment is when says that people like grendel people with his sort of mindset that you know i'm german when we win when we're successful and i'm the foreigner the immigrant when louis and many germans with an immigrant background feel this way it's almost like that identity politics but you don't feel like you have a good enough view of a german enough and that's also not forget that gringo he is a former politician and in the past he has made negative and quite a few controversial comments about multiculturalism in and some in germany and it was all just feels a man of with his sort of reuse should not be in a position of power so most it is it was no longer going to play for the german team what does this mean for german football how big of a star has he been a huge i mean people also can't forget that there is a. it is a model of integration he won numerous awards in germany he was the go to guy and i think the bigger question now is what sort of impact will this have on future generations of germans with a migrant background

grendel was head of racial hygiene and was known for accelerating deportation of jews to concentration camps and he was municipal director of speigelgrund. another founder was curling the kelly, a fellow post-doctorate student of asperger's under humberger he was the head of the adult euthanasia facility where thousands of adults were killed. was infamous, everyone in vienna knew who he was. he was widely called the mass murder of steinhoff. the royal british air force even dropped leaflets calling him the lord with the syringe. he was engaged to hitler's sister paula, youcan see the resemblance . are greatly disapproved of the match, we don't know why. perhaps he didn't want his sister marrying a mass murderer but he had kekelious. he had kekelious apprehended in berlin in 1940 and dispatched to the eastern front which isan effective way to get rid of an undesirable brother-in-law . so not only did humberger associate with the top leaders of siegel ground,the transfer of the most disabled children . so this is a talk he gave in vienna published in the munich medical weekly.he said tha
