Discussions long you can hear weapons will be on the table. But not to belittle what you did to war. Insists he still wants the war with mexico but backs a bipartisan solution to help undocumented migrant moultrie may have in mexico city where theyre finally getting people to take a driving. And im far is small and ill have all the days sport news including a great step forward in the olympic spirit thats how the i. O. C. Are describing north koreas decision to send our fleets to next months winter games. There are very warm welcome to the siren news there israeli army has carried out raids on a number of villages close to the occupied west bank town of nablus after thirty five year old israeli was shot dead the armys declared the area to the south west of nablus now as a military zone there are reports of skirmishes in the villages of tel and samarra and of settlers throwing stones at passing cars in the village of houla and Harry Fawcett joins me now from west jerusalem hi there harry what else can you tell us. Well as you say the man involved in this shooting the victim of the shooting has been confirmed dead he was taken to hospital inside israel near tel aviv and was confirmed dead shortly after arrival hed been shot in the neck and the chest the Israeli Military saying that this man this thirty five year old man was shot from a passing vehicle by a gunman or gunmen on route sixty inside the occupied west bank nearby the illegal outpost of gilad its reported that this man was a rabbi and a more held that is a religious figure who carries out who is qualified to carry out circumcision so he is someone obviously of some standing within the community he is reported to have been a resident of this illegal outpost and as we as we are reporting he has now been confirmed to have died in this attack the gunman or Gunmen Police and Israeli Military appear still to be hunting for them harry can you tell us more about the area which israel has now declared a military zone and what that means. Well sure its just to the southwest of a major occupied west bank town the town of nablus there are a number of israeli settlements and outposts in the region around nablus and that is it is often that this region an area of confrontation between palestinians and Israeli Settlers there are throughout the occupied west bank military checkpoint sometimes theyre staffed sometimes theyre not obviously its very easy for them to be populated by soldiers at times such as this areas can be shut down extremely quickly given the amount of control that the Israeli Military has in the occupied west bank they have already raided these two villages of tel and sorrow there were some confrontations in both of those villages its reported between palestinian youths and the Israeli Soldiers involved they have withdrawn to some extent there its been reported they have for example now just sealed off the entrance of sorrow they no longer inside that village but they have raided the Israeli Military an area of nablus the suburb within nablus which has seen more confrontations Israeli Military there apparently seizing security cameras as this hunt continues for the two for the shooter or shooters harry do you think that this incident could lead to why theyre on risk given the Current Situation in the west bank and and elsewhere. Its hard to say i mean the last Fatal Shooting by a palestinian on israelis took place in september in that case the man in question was a worker within the illegal israeli settlement a palestinian from a nearby village he had permits to go in and out every day for. For whatever reason on one of those days he shot and killed three Security Forces members at the checkpoint gate he though was shot on sight during the course of that incident so one of the differences here is that theyre still hunting for the people or person involved in this attack the other thing is that of course since then that took place in september since then weve had the jerusalem declaration by donald trump weve had weeks of protests and tension already we have had a welcoming at least of this attack by hamas by the military wing of hamas in the gaza strip saying that this is an opening response presumably to that jerusalem declaration with fire and a reminder of what is to come but at this stage its too early to say exactly how things will play out in the coming days Harry Fawcett there live from western somehow we thank you yes state department has praised the outcome of the first high level talks between north and south korea more than two years its a countries have agreed to hold military discussions but pyongyangs Nuclear Ambitions will be avoided washington said it would be interested in joining the talks foreign three reports live from seoul. Until recently North Koreans refused to even pick up the phone when South Koreans call the border hotline say with significant to see reese on whos in charge of into korean relations for the north korean government stepping over the border into the south he led a five member team of high ranking diplomats into a meeting with a south korean counterpart in whats known as the truce village at panmunjom. Our talks resume after north and south korean ties have been severed for a long time but i believe the first step is have the journey with a number indeed we came to this meeting with a serious and sincere attitude and with the thought of giving our brethren who have high hopes for this dialogue in valuable results as the first gift of the year on the meeting did produce results north korea says it will send a delegation of athletes and team members to next months Winter Olympics in south korea the south says it will consider suspending sanctions if it helps north koreas participation in the games in. Both sides have also agreed to hold military talks to prevent accidental clashes and ease tensions as well as conduct other high level exchanges to improve into korea ties but attempts to discuss north Koreas Nuclear bomb and Missiles Program got nowhere with the head of the delegation from pyongyang warning that such discussions could damage relations the north has long maintained that its Nuclear Arsenal is necessary to deter an invasion by u. S. Troops and south koreas proposal for talks on reunions for family members whove been separated for decades met with little response from the north. Despite that many in the south see any talks happening at all as a positive step. For us. I believe these formal diplomatic discussions can result in peace for an a c. The Korean Peninsula is a dangerous place thats under the constant threat of war and i hope those concerns to him become reality and after a year of high tensions on the Korean Peninsula and in japan and across the pacific including the threat of military action by the u. S. These talks are already being heralded as a breakthrough florance zero seoul well lets get u. S. Reaction to those korea talks now danae super joins us live from washington hi there diane so whats the state department been saying well the state Department Says that if anything that lessens tensions on the korean polish peninsula it sees as a positive but it also says it would like to see talks on denuclearization but white house says that its seeing its hopeful that north korea is going to be participating in the olympics that might encourage north korea to end its isolation and maybe dismantle its Nuclear Program so sort of a muted response from both the white house and the state Department Diane is there any sense of optimism if i could use that words about what could be unfolding here. Well julie i think its cautious optimism with emphasis on the word caution keep in mind that these are two countries that have been engaged in a war of words since president trying to Office Almost a year ago its been ratcheted up over the last couple of months with the two with President Trump and president. Comparing who has the larger button the president President Trump has threatened all options saying that military options are on the table so theres a lot of mistrust between these two countries and the president of the white house has indicated that there is some concern that by participating in the a lympics north korea may possibly use this is as a way to skirt u. N. Sanctions so i think that they are keeping an eye on things i would say that theyre encouraged but this is not a thaw in relations between these two countries to put their joining me from washington d. C. Dan thank you well joining us live from washington is tim shorrock hes in north korea analyst and author of spies for high the secret world of intelligence outsourcing it to him a very warm welcome to the Program Great to have your company and to try launch of a breakthrough if i can cautiously use that word are these talks. I think its a very important breakthrough and i think it too to many people surprise here are these these talks were fairly successful in their aim which was to get north korea participating in the olympics and provide a kind of peace stall for the Olympic Games during that time so i think that was that was very important and plus as your reporters reporters mentioned there is this does an agreement they want to talk further on the military meant to have military to military talks and thats very important i would say that you know little kim jong un made this overtures but this is really a triumph for the president of south korea moon j. N. Who after all ran on the on the platform of having dialogue with north korea and defusing the crisis through diplomacy and when he came to office in may the first thing he proposed was to have military to military talks and also to have red cross talk so the families could reunite families that were divided by the korean war and now both of these issues are on the table and are going to be discussed so i think it shows its a very very favorable light on president moon and his kind of cautious ins and careful approach in contrast to President Trumps you know blustering and threatening approach and until its interesting you mention trump because he came out today and said you know if i werent involved they wouldnt even be talking about the olympics right now to be to you know talking or it would be much more. Serious so i think in a way he feels like he can take some create and create here rather than in gene. Well i think its rather presumptuous of of trump to say that for one thing you know these its true that the sanctions have started to cut into South North Koreas economy and theyre not going to really affect the Nuclear Program of the Missile Program and they havent really affected those programs but the sanctions are clearly going to hurt ordinary people in the people who live in peeling young who depend on Foreign Countries for oil for example call in in a lots of other products of the now been cut off so those have had an effect that wasnt just trump though but i think if trump had not blustered and threatened north korea like he has over the past nine months these talks might have happened actually long before this whether theres a double edged sword to what trungpa same untamed watts is. Motive what whats the end game for them. Well i think for them they want to be recognized as a Nuclear State and to end to negotiate sort of a a process of deterrence as opposed to you know giving up their weapons but you know the the i think thats thats basically his medium medium range end game here he clearly wants to end the sanctions i think and you know move past that but. The last missile test you know hes he he and his government have repeatedly said that they have completed their state Nuclear Force and theyre now ready to turn to the economy and so he thinks he has the deterrence to protect north korea from a u. S. Attack and now wants to proceed to put resources into expanding is hes economy and making making the economy work for the people of north korea and so in that sense that the sanctions in an ending or terminate you know scaling down the sanctions could make a great deal of difference but you know i could clearly think that you know thats what he does want to be recognized as a Nuclear State and the United States does not want to recognize them and sat where us and in terms of negotiation the South Koreans want to take a more step by to spend step approach and deal with kind of one issue at a time while in the long range keeping in focus than the Nuclear Issue but the u. S. Has basically been saying that unless they commit to denuclearizing the u. S. Isnt going to talk to them in a bilateral way and so i think its going to be very difficult for that to happen if they u. S. Keeps insisting on that tim sarik joining me now live from washington d. C. Ten funky. U. S. President donald trump has reiterated his desire for a border wall part of Immigration Reform the president says that lawmakers need to find a bipartisan solution to protect thousands of young socalled dream or immigrants but he says any agreement must include funding for border with mexico canada how good is following events in washington d. C. Well certainly there has been repeated speculation about the president s Mental Fitness when it comes to his presidency those accusations intensifying in the past week but that may have been countered by a Spontaneous Press Conference by the president a bipartisan appearance of both democratic and republican lawmakers here at the white house that appeared to run in front of the press real time negotiations on a thorny issue that has been under resolvable in the United States for years and that is the issue of illegal immigration as well as Border Security the president showing that he not only despite accusations to the contrary was engaged in new the issues but he also seemed to signal that there was a willingness to work with his critics particularly when it comes to issues like Border Security and something known as doc our deferred action on childhood arrivals essentially what to do about thousands of Illegal Immigrants brought to the United States living here for years but brought here as children many now adults we dont have six months for the doctor. Because if youre going to negotiate i mean you will agree admit we wont i mean you know its possible were not going to agree with you when its possible but this should be no reason for us not to get to start a joke i will say when this group comes back hopefully with that agreement this group and others from the senate from the house comes back with an agreement im shouting at me i will be signing now the issue of immigration is key to a looming deadline and that is funding the u. S. Government that deadline a little more than a week away may have something to do with the. Fact that republicans democrats along with the president working together in a bipartisan fashion the president is still insisting that he wants funding for his border wall along with southern u. S. Border with mexico but seems to be striking a more conciliatory tone with his political opponents that may have something to do with the fact that this is an Election Year Congressional Elections are set to be held in november u. S. President on toms former chief adviser steve bannon has stepped down from his post as executive chairman of news bannons been making headlines show in the past week over a marks made in a book that criticized trump and his family for being treasonous and unpatriotic in a meeting with russian officials it was criticized by trump who called him sloppy steve suggests that hes lost his mind. Still to come on the aljazeera news hour the beginning of a beautiful friendship perhaps french president manuel back home hails his paan ship to china following the signing of several lucrative trade deal. Cracking down on crime online though we look at why a new law combating hate speech germany is facing quite so much criticism and in sport its an early end to the dakar rally for the defending motorbike. Turkeys Foreign Ministry has summoned the ambassadors of iran and russia to protest against what it regards as the violation of a socalled deescalation zone in syria turkey is reportedly accusing syrian troops of breaking the agreement in their push to retake a position held areas of prominence russia iran and turkey agreed on for deescalation zones last may in an effort to wind down the seven year war russia and iran support the government of syrian president Bashar Al Assad while turkey backs off position groups well at least twenty people have died in airstrikes and shelling in the serious Eastern Suburbs the rebel held area which was agreed as a deescalation zone has come under heavy bombardment in recent days and as the winter sets in hundreds of thousands of civilians already struggling to survive without enough food or medicine will face huge challenges natasha going to has the story. The fog of dust from buildings reduced to rubble was still thick as people began transporting the injured and pulling out the dead twenty three people were killed in iraq strikes in eastern guta on monday night. No you made the day to be the warplanes didnt stop day and night they shell only civilians and tall good residential neighborhoods and markets Eastern Ghouta is a short drive to the capital damascus which is remained relatively calm throughout the war but the lives of the four hundred thousand people here are very different the never ending stream of bombs has created shortages of everything from food to fuel. The last two weeks have been especially intense one hundred twenty six people are estimated to have been killed since december twenty ninth. The new i five a man on the video we demand the International Community stops the shelling of innocent civilians we dont have any food or mates in here and use kuta we under siege for a long time and we hope god will help us. Syrians contemplating leaving their homes are faced with a dilemma for example the displaced who sought refuge in opposition held in lib are in danger again it is the largest rebel stronghold and Government Forces are in the midst of an offensive to regain control tens of thousands of civilians already in dire circumstances have been recorded as displaced since the first of december due to the fighting with the onset of winter save shelters among the biggest concerns as many families are fleeing into areas that are already at full capacity into communities with depleted resources people in eastern guta fear if they leave their homes theyll never be allowed to return the un is accusing the Syrian Government of implementing a policy of force displacement to radically alter the demographic makeup of areas previously controlled by the opposition natasha going to aim aljazeera. Well for more on this so were joined from washington by which you by its a way to the center for political military analysis at the Hudson Institute richard a very warm welcome to the program good to have your company is always how significant is turkey calling on the russian and theyre waiting and im bassett. For now its not very significant weve had turkey at various points criticize russia iran and especially the Syrian Government already weve also had them criticize u. S. Policy and others so for now its just a warning of what might happen it could become more significant if turkey were actually to break the size of lead with russia and iran which has been if theyve been working together in various peace proposals but its not yet its maybe significant for now nothing new is occurred richard as far as turkeys involvement is concerned people saying reasonably often you know turkey is not the right country to take the lead here but nonetheless it does have significant interests in the outcome but i understand the turkish concerns i mean the most obvious as your package point out is that if the fighting continues and quickly as it moves northward its just going to drive more refugees into turkey there turkey has as i mentioned been participating in peace efforts with russia and iran and if this fighting continues if it looks as it looks that the Syrian Government is violating that the escalation agreements then that pretty much ruins the prospects for any near term peace deal so i understand the turkish concerns but you know whether they can actually do anything its not clear i think theyre just warning the russians the syrians trying to change their behavior where is the u. S. Administration focus on this conflict right now richard. As you as was mentioned in their beginning of the broadcast the focus of u. S. Attention is on other issues around north korea and so on its always the president ial level but syria is being looked at and it and being taken under dick great care by both the state department and frankly the fence department so the the people in charge of the u. S. Military operation in syria have said the u. S. Will continue to remain a presence will continue to fight to keep isis from storing the strength and so on so Decision Making up from now appears to be made at the cabinet level within the mostly department of defense and i and seems to be pretty going fairly well everything considered in the sense that given the limited u. S. Stake in terms of number of troops and someone involved they seem to be having i mean only use that little leverage. Effectively to please keep it to have some impact on the vents on the ground but you i said joining me live from washington d. C. Richard as always thank you.

Prosecutors in france are investigating the u. S. Tech giant apple after it admits it slowing down older models of its i phone last month and the inquiry focuses on accusations that theyve broken french consumer law by attempting to force existing customers to buy new phones but there is more from paris. In france one in five smartphone users owns an i phone each new model causes much excitement but not everyone is happy with the u. S. Manufacturer a french consumer watchdog has filed a legal complaint saying apple deliberately slows down older i phone models to encourage customers to buy new ones where they theyre doing what we call planned obsolescence two or two in the purpose for people to buy a new one if its a marketing strategy. Didnt care about three have enough proof to make this. Hope says apple uses Software Updates to slow down its phones the watchdog says recent updates coming sided with the release of the i phone eight in france such a practice is illegal under french law it is a crime to deliberately shorten the lifespan of a product in order to try and force consumers to buy new ones those found guilty can be punished with a prison sentence a large fine and companies can be forced to pay up to five percent of their annual earnings in paris some apple customers welcomed the investigation to see. If will work its important to know whats going on because we are all hostages of multinationals meritage and looking once i bought a new find that i have to charge all the time and the updates make it slower i think its done on purpose even though its illegal here after a flurry of similar lawsuits in the u. S. Last year apple admitted to intentionally slowing down its old phones saying it was done to help prolong battery life some analysts say the. Company should have been more transparent everyone knows that their phone starts to lose power after a certain time and this is actually quite a clever way of dealing with it was interesting is how its been presented in rather a negative light i think thats apples fault for not communicating better that they were doing this to help use aljazeera contacted apple in france for comment but has not received a reply faced with a criminal investigation though the stakes here for the take giant are high Natasha Butler ill just sirrah paris well joining me in the studio is some shade hes the Senior Technology reporter at Business Insider and sam weve just been suggesting havent we about apple and it seems to be coming one of these organizations that people love the products but its a relatively Secretive Company and weve seen lawsuits of various companies the European Commission are after them and the feeling is that not being as transparent as they should be yes i agree they probably are going to have to change the way they behave going Going Forward otherwise theyre going to find themselves in trouble with with regulators they may have to pay large fines so they need to open up and be less secretive and do we need to demand as consumers you know because theyre in their pockets are so deep that these billion dollar fines i mean yes of course they make a dent but do we need to to push them to be more responsible and transparent i think we should. I think thats hard for consumers to do there are so many people that love apple that love the products it makes so as consumers i think people are going to carry on buying apples devices i think the regulators people like the people of the European Commission they are the ones that have the power to force change apple and i think well see in the coming years. Apple facing some some serious scrutiny do you think that the way that people consume these products now particularly im thinking you know generation said millennial is that you know they want the sort of you know company thats responsible thats transparent do you think that to my. Force them in a different direction yes potentially i mean as these Companies Gain more and more power apple google amazon and facebook people especially the Younger Generation are going to start to challenge what they do theyre going to want to see exactly what these companies have planned for their data theyre going to want to see where they make their products and how they make their products so i think it will be a Younger Generation and a more likely to lean on on these Big Tech Companies than the older generations so the point thats being made particularly in france is that. By this play on battery life and slowing down phones with updates and so on is effectively forcing people to make their products obsolete before their time and the other point there of course is about the pondering of of resources continually and how hard we have to think about that every time we buy something new so just fans have a point there that this is something we really need to start to think about i think so i mean you know theres only so much tin and zinc and everything magnesium in the world apple can extract and apple does have recycling programs in place. But theyre not perfect and you know for every bit of zinc that you use in a phone you can get every bit darker and recycle if actively so. I think that you know Companies Like apple need to be thinking more about resources and how we exploit them lets hope they do some cheap thank you thank you. Now internet activists and opposition politicians in germany are outraged at a new law aimed at combat saying a rising tide of online hate speech Facebook Twitter and other social media sites are being forced to move offensive content of face fines of up to sixty Million Dollars david chase reports that from berlin.
