This country i want things to change in germany we grew up here we were born here i see germany as my home. Also coming up we take you to the red carpet where the stars are shining to the 70th Berlin Film Festival has begun well take you to the front row of Sigourney Weavers new movie my salinger year crimea kicks off one of the biggest film festivals in the wild more about that on the day. Our viewers on p. B. S. In the United States and all around the world welcome but we begin the day with yet another attack here in germany that police are calling domestic terrorism 10 people are dead following a shooting rampage at a town outside of frankfurt federal investigators say that a 43 year old german man armed with a gun that he had legally purchased shot and killed 9 people. At bars which are frequented by immigrants he later shot and killed his mother before turning the gun on himself there is sadness and outrage across germany tonight at candlelight vigils people demanding that authorities take action about the growing threat of the far right of this attack is the 3rd far right attack in less than a year tonight the german president laid a wreath near the site of the shooting some people heard shelving mr president how many more people will have to die before you before all of you do something to stop the killing the morning after in honolulu residents woke up to speculation that far right extremism motivated attacks in their neighborhood the severity of the incident is being felt far beyond the city strong condemnation from the german chancellor. Since racism is poison heater it is poison and this poison exists in our society and it is to blame for far too many crimes already. At 10 oclock last night local time the shooter opened fire in who khobar and killed 4 people before driving to a 2nd venue where he shot dead 5 more people the bar owner son describes what happened. It was like a massacre. Around page there was blood everywhere people on the ground. My kids and i were in good spirits. I live 100 meters from here and when i went upstairs i had 567 shots thats what i saw and. I know i was speaking as a silver surfer on the one hand you feel a bit powerless and on the other hand i dont want to call it fear but its Something Like that that you have to be afraid to go out on to go to a bar but also a good. Many of the victims are believed to be of turkish or kurdish descent. Prosecutors say the gunmen. Following the discovery of a confession letter the attack is being treated as an act of terror the suspect had uploaded a video to you tube a few days earlier in which he expressed his extremist ideology. The suspect along with his 72 year old mother were later found dead in his home. Police are searching the property and seizing items of interest as part of their investigation. Its been tough and so we looked out of the window and saw a lot of police offices. Around 25 to 30 with 20 because. And dogs and they were running around. Since. The attack comes amid growing concerns about foreign violence in germany investigations are ongoing. There are lots of questions tonight joining me now is my colleague brady she is in one hour she is near the site of the shootings from last night good evening to you kate we know the people there have been reacting to this tragedy with sadness and with anger i mean what have you heard but if you see. Well initially says a friend they certainly was a reaction of short haired people 5 hard to believe that this happened in such a tiny nondescript town as have now and it was just right here behind me. That you might still be able to see when the 1st shooting took place but as i spoke savor most people throughout the day it became clear that there was also a sense of frustration here particularly among members of the Turkish Community here who to me said that they are very much sick of being seen as not being german many of the people that i spoke to him and some of them hold a german and turkish passports and they said that they still feel that this links to today its yesterdays for far right extremist terror attack they see they see themselves as still being outside is here that theyre still not accepted as germans and they say that that feeds into a much bigger debate thats going on here in germany right now and of course its not only about addressing the far right extremism here but also how germany tackles every day racism and intrigue integration as well of people from all kinds of backgrounds the gunman as we understand it tonight he had no criminal record but he did leave a sizable footprint. What do we know. He said he did just a few days before carrying out that deadly shooting last night he actually posted a video online in which he voiced fall rights ideology and following that as well police also retrieved a letter which he actually wrote confessing to the shooting last night so of course investigations are still under way and as part of the investigations the police will of course be trying to work out exactly how he became radicalized and how and to what extent he became part of germanys far right extremist scene and if indeed he was completely working alone. Do people there the ones youve talked to do they believe that authorities have a complete grasp of the scale of the far right extremist scene i mean are they ready to deal with threats like this what did they tell you. So in the not i mean you were and you have to look at some of the figures of course germany does remain a safe place to live but this is the 3rd fall right extremist terror attack within the last year we saw last year in spring time and the killing and shooting of a regional politician look a far right extremist has been arrested on suspicion of that killing and then of course in october in the eastern german city of. We so very similar circumstances today a gunman opening fire at that time and attempts in an attempt to jump the semitic attack on a synagogue and 2 passers by were were killed there as a result so clearly something still needs to be done there have been some new measures implemented in recent months and even more positions introduced to the Intelligence Agency here in germany but clearly theres still a lot of work to be done. All right my colleague brigadier near the site of the shootings in hono outside of free for him thank you. Well there were shouts to the german president tonight calls for him and other political leaders to do more joining me at the big table now is Patrick Symmes board hes a member of germanys parliament hes a member of chancellor Angela Merkels conservative c. D. U. Hes also on the committees for domestic security as well as oversight which oversees intelligence in the country its good to have you on the show this is in part what do you say to people who say that the Police Intelligence that theyve dropped the ball that theyre not doing enough were doing a lot we 1st change the law against hate speech its not easy because a lot of people say ok then you look what can be said and whats not no we dont accept people bringing hate into our society so we did a lot and in that case we are trying to get more and more policemen in our fortys 2000 we want to employ in the next time so so be doing a lot but sometimes its very hard to just figure out these kind of lonely will 1st and we have to ask why are these persons a lot of times via social media being motivated to do such horrible crimes i spoke earlier this evening with a documentary Film Producer and his specialty is the far right scene here in germany far right violence and he told me that the forces of the far right based on what he has researched are out of control in germany what do you say to that i wouldnt say theyre out of control but the number is increasing that is really one issue that concerns us a lot so were trying to to bring more power and. Intelligence to our police to fight against this group of violent right extremists the former head of the b. And d. Which is germanys main Intelligence Agency tons mustnt today tweeted something which he later deleted weve got that tweet we want to show you there we did a translation into english he tweeted socialist logic perpetrators are always right wing victims are right wing the victims are always left wing now. Later as i said he deleted that but when you read that perpetrators are always right wing victims are left with that being written by a man who used to be the top spy official of this country do you understand when people say that they feel like the Security Forces in this country are infested with far right sympathizers sometimes i can understand hundreds of mosques and in that case and its good that you deleted it but he shouldnt better not written it so its not a question on this case of right or left its totally clear that this guy was racist motivated that hes right wing a delicious and we have to look at where he is radicalized i think in social media he posted videos on you tube he wrote a kind of. You could tell maybe money festo but very small confusing but nevertheless if hes a confused guy but hes a racist and hes a right wing guy we understand that in this this manifesto this pamphlet that the gunman had put online and he is a supporter hes a fan of the us president donald trump. What do you do as a member of the German Parliament when youre fighting these violent forces and these violent forces are are appealing you pulling from the president of your biggest ally i mean how do you square that circle ive no idea what went around in his head but nevertheless we see that more and more people are following quinns. Theories they think the world is going totally wrong the governments are doing wrong things they dont believe in an institutions so in the end we have to do more about education we have to bring more clear opinions in the society and we have to for the intelligent and the police we have to observe this rooms also in the internet its not just a you tube its not just facebook a lot of more plaid. On this of whether people got radicalized what about the Political Parties the on the far right a. S. D. Party for example thats the biggest opposition in the federal parliament where you are they are known for being sympathizers of the far right i mean you have to do business there legitimately elected to parliament yes how do you do that they are and i would say one 3rd of them right wing extremists the old n. P. T. Of the public on a you know a country so they are still there now in the deed so we have to be clear we dont cooperate or we dont work with them together and we have to separate them because there are some who went to the a of d. Because of the euro issues europe stability issues there and we have to ask them why and how can you be in such a party which accepts that one 3rd of the party is extremist but i think thats your she really a danger there and you ignore them though that thats actually going to fuel the fire that we shouldnt ignore them we should tell the people this is not an alternative the answers are not real answers they try to divide the society they try to bring down the government to destabilize a country and then they want to seek that chance to bring of then you government and they have to make right clear they dont do a good job because they really in the end dont have an answer so there is a National Election next year your party is looking for a new chancellor candidate to take over from under the miracle do you see any possible candidates out there right now who would be qualified to take on this far right movement in germany i thought right now we have 4 possible candidates so i think theres a good position for a party other parties would wish they would have just one candidate so well have a hopefully a good process until summer games isnt book do you think the best candidate i think the 1st one who officially announced himself as nobody thought going was a very very good speech and i think the others will come out so is well known and a lot of members of the party think he should have a chance but spawn is also very good doing ister so we have a good person knows the situation once youve got all the names down then theres your pleasure who are you going on the show tonight. I want to talk about who were running against a billionaire who calls women fat broads and of course taste lesbians and no im not talking about donald trump im talking about mayor bloomberg i think we need Something Different than donald trump i dont think you look at donald trump and say we need someone richer in the white house but around the country we have the best known socialist in the country have used to be a millionaire with 3 houses what im missing. Well fireworks last nights the democratic president ial debate on n. B. C. All because of the new candidate on the block if you will the former new york city mayor Mike Bloomberg the other candidates they did not hold back did they do this when the large youre with me at the beach table he is a campaign little cant make it so to veterans of the 2000 a few 1012 Obama Campaign aides i mean its what were looking at anyway is unusual to have this many candidates this late in the season and now weve got this billionaire who says hes a democrat who wants to be president how do you read all of that former republican mayor of new york billionaire who just entered the race and i mean lets face it all those candidates on stage are ready for Mike Bloomberg they had their Opposition Research done and you just showed Elizabeth Warren she came out blazing and so he had to step into the arena unprepared i would argue theyve been on the debate stage 410. 00 times everyone knows the drill they have their talking points down they have to end it builds ready and he came in and caught some. You know the Democratic Party would you say that Mike Bloomberg is he an imposter is he a foe a fake democrat or i mean i think democrats take issue to someone who just says look im going to skip the 4th 1st states i wouldnt hampshire and nevada and South Carolina im just going to enter on super tuesday and im just going to spend you know close to 2000000000 is what theyre saying on this has been the money of his own money not taken any donations and i think you could also make the case though that Mike Bloomberg actually took on some pretty progressive issues i mean he spent tremendous amounts of money of his own money to find fight Climate Change to fight for you know stricter gun regulations so i would actually argue that you know to a certain extent he helped elect a slash of democratic progressive leaders in the 2000 the term lection so you know it goes 2 ways. When i look at him though. I see someone who is coming in late to the Party Straight he wants to spoil it if you will and the Democratic Party itself should it allow someone to do that i mean just in terms of if youre looking at Party Politics in and putting people out there to become the candidate i mean is what hes is it kosher what hes doing a little its certainly an experiment because again its not been done before look i think youve all heard those Democratic Candidates say on that stage saying you know you cant just buy your way and well obviously you cant right now and people have been critical and saying is that going to work moment hes polling 2nd to Bernie Sanders in most of the super tuesday states and so spending 40000000 of your own money actually does the branding effect that he was hoping for and actually gets him up on the polls now happened last night is that you know you can run a Great Advertising Campaign and hit people with almost every other t. V. Spot thats out there hit him on social media and actually create an image of yourself now he went on the debate stage yesterday and then people actually got to see the real work and if theres a too large of a discrepancy there you know the house will start crumbling and thats what happened last night let me ask you just before we run out of time the u. S. President donald trump his Approval Ratings are at an all time high 49 percent and he is just coming off this frenzy of pardoning people white collar criminals thats right you all have some type of connection to him and yet his Approval Rating is not suffering as a you know as a Political Campaign strategist how do you explain that well i think what happened is in this with the polling indicates as well democrats have been talking about impeachment whereas voters care about the health care and so i think you know democrats need to figure out do we want to do another round of impeachment hearings regarding the pardoning and all the corruption thats taking place in the United States right now or do we just want to focus on the Kitchen Table issues look at this. Thats why Mike Bloomberg entered the race and he said the best one equipped to be donald trump and some of the polling actually indicates that now he has to prove that point and you know the happening on saturdays South Carolina is happening and then of course the big question is what happens on super tuesday im sure theyll be talking about that do you believe the polls i am out of the prediction business i am. I do know a big chunk of delegates will get a lot on super tuesday. Always do its good to get your unique view there but we appreciate it thank you for shit you have. Festival or as its known is now underway this is the festivals 70th year and the opening film is my salinger year story. Of alien thing but im sure you agree this flick is anything but science fiction. I mean i can give you plenty of the idiotic examples but i was a fan takes up his typewriter and writes to his idol the novelist j. D. Salinger who was a one hit wonder with his book the catcher in the rod. A new face at the Publishing Agency joanna takes care of salingers fan mail. And this is margaret played by Sigourney Weaver she salingers agent come bodyguard her job to protect her star from everything and everyone 40 years after the famous book 1st hit the bestseller lists shes a direct kind of person. Rewind and i think theres can truth to that whole time where writing was so respected in may such a profound difference to people where they were the writers king or queen i think she feels in a way like the High Priestess to put her her arms around that world and keep it safe journey because you just said yes terry but salinger is just a ghost haunting the film influencing 2 women the younger of which is still finding her way. The film was not about salinger but about the effect of a writer. On the young woman and her journey to become a writer is that on my salinger year is perhaps a low key start to the bat an eyelid but its a soulful declaration of love for the literature business in 1990 s. New york in the office on a trial basis over at the break over now are my colleagues and buffs the humphrey and david good evening to you 2 lets talk about this opening film what do you think of it. Well helen and i came out of the movie and we looked at each other and we did we do see the Devil Wears Prada but like in a really bookish version and i dont think that thats what this was i think that this for a very bookish movie will have a pretty widespread appeal its a movie that i would love to go see with my mom for instance i dont think itll have as much appeal is the Devil Wears Prada but i really appreciate that it was very sincere you know i agree absolutely one thing i will say there is if you all going to this movie is a big j. D. Salinger fan i mean i am for want to me take you on as well yeah you know im going to get so much of that from that this is more of a story a female events a patient for example you know young woman comes to the big city with big dreams she finds those dreams like he did and she meets a guy maybe hes the wrong guy gets rid of him and eventually he wasnt out he wasnt great you was kind of financially as she finds have always think it was really satisfying in no way i mean i give it 3 and a half stars 3 stars i get 3 stars 3 and a half and david would take his mom helen would you take your. I take my dad its got that kind of broad appeal i like that i like that both the stars the bell and all of we know we has a reputation of being somewhat quirky what is this years focus. Absolutely but i mean i think about it not it is always on a shame it required he it is political this year as well the director of the festival said that its all about inner turmoil and out of conflict paying lip service to the fact that i mean he said were living in topeka times and we really actually see that in the lineup of the festival aside from my salinger year for instance this film there is no evil by Muhammad Russell off the director Muhammad Russell of wont be able to attend his own World Premiere because hes not allowed to leave iran and another movie that im really looking forward to seeing dow as a russian film that wont be allowed to be shown in russia fascinating movie about the soviet union a cast of 400 people were kept enclosed in a set for 3 years to make this movie sort of reenacting like like a truman show reenacting it to serve you union if you want i mean i mean they are inherently political i think whats really interesting as well i mean as we know the power cinema to show the political on a personal level as well when weve got in mind i think will be the im really looking forward to seeing as an american film never ready sometimes always which is about 217 year old girls cozzens living in rural pennsylvania one of them fools unexpectedly pregnant and then goes to seek an abortion having to take a greyhound to new york the problems that she encounters and of course you know just so potent and timely when we seeing for example challenges to review weight and Health Care Legislation in the United States right now you know what i will say that you guys have the best assignment of the month maybe of the year you get to watch movies and then talk about them here on the day which we look forward to we will look forward to now for the next week 3 David Leavitts or 2 like you colleagues thank you guys.
