it is this what do you call hybrid tactics, this combination of overt and overt means of aggression and we have seen in the uk —— covert. the use of chemical agents there in salisbury. also, the efforts to try to meddle in democratic logical processors in the united states but also in other nato allied countries. so where should we be thinking? elections in ukraine or more closely at what russia is doing in the balkans. where is the focus? the challenges we have to do it all at the same time, we don't have the luxury of choosing one challenge, we have to address a more assertive russia but also terrorism and all of those threats that are seen from there so thatis threats that are seen from there so that is in the way the new situation for nato, during the cold war it was one challenge, the union but now have many threats, many challenges at same time and there is a more blurred line between peace and war. we have all this hybrid fibre attacks, tactics, which makes the whole thing much more complex and wa nt whole thing much more complex and want more difficult. the most concerning singh

there is plenty of disturbing data pointing to a significant rise in overt anti—semitism in europe andhe united states, why? how should the jewish community respond? and how much reassurance and protection is being offered tojews whose past has so often been written in blood? well, my guest is pinchas goldschmidt, chief rabbi of moscow, and president of the conference of european rabbis. is rising anti—semitism a symptom of a liberal democratic order that is starting to crumble? rabbi pinchas goldschmidt, welcome to hardtalk. thank you. there is a lot of evidence from surveys in opinion polls across europe suggesting thatjews feel much more insecure than they did 10—20 years ago. why? attacks against the jewish community come from different places. there's the attack from islamic radicals, islamic terrorism, as we have seen it in toulouse and paris and copenhagen, and brussels. and we also have attacks against religious practice, of jewish religious practice in the european parliaments, outlawing practices to circumcision and preparing kosher meat and also the far left is, with the far

they used intermediaries that can be overt acts in furtherance of a conspiracy. >> seth, again, on the law, as a prosecutor i'm going to get to our other very qualified guests. on the law, i wonder what you think of the passage that mueller includes that stone wasn't just gossiping or making big random requests, but right here on page 7 what struck me as so damning was mueller including that stone was specifically trying to find certain e-mails on clinton dating back to 2011 asked for that to be relayed as a question, like a document search, to assange and allegedly person 2 then passed that on and there was bccing to make it real why do you think that's in there? that doesn't strike me something that he needs to prove tampering, for example. >> it certainly doesn't. it shows proactive, overt acts taken to facilitate a potential underlying crime because it's being done at the direction of people within the campaign, potentially the highest levels of that campaign. >> so you're talking conspiracy? >> correct this is all conspiracy law that's exactly right under conspiracy law, the actua

was bcc'ing to make that real >> it certainly doesn't, but it shows proactive coordination, it sows overt acts taken to facility a crime because it is being done at the direction of people within the campaign, potentially the highest levels -- >> you're talking conspiracy >> correct, that is right. and the completion of that conspiracy doesn't need to take place for that to be criminal. it may have been carried out and successful the lek may have been tampered with, but the efforts is criminal in and of itself. >> bill, i hope you will forgive the analogy but sometimes youf have been like a father to us on a long road trip i ask on behalf of some of us here, are twle yet >> no, i think we need to still see the full scope, but we have come a long way and you put it well at the beginning, the trump campaign was in the loop, that seems to be alleged and established. is it please about that he didn't direct this or he wasn't knowledgeable about the direction by effort to get it, that seems extremely implausible to me, so i will assert that trump was in the loop on the effort to get the russia

speaker, in the 2016 and 2018 election cycles, we witnessed overt discrimination, disinformation, and intimidationantics aimed at disenfranchising our most vulnerable friends and neighbors. individuals and organizations intentionally aimed to spread the material regarding the time and place of elections, endorsements, and voter eligibility. moreover, the they tried to intimidate people at the polls n my hometown, the commonwealth of virginia, there were reports of a man holding a a trump sign on with a parking german shepherd in the group of his truck. that man broke no laws such efforts can kint fear with one of our basics rights as americans, the right to vote. as such i'm pleased h.r. 1 includes language from a bill introduced in the last congress with then ranking member nadler the deceptive practices and voter intimidation prevention act. this language will prohibit the dissemination of false information regarding federal elections and prevent efforts to hinder, interfere it, or prevent a person from voting, registering to vote, or helping another person to vote tore register to
