Im going if i must and welcome the United Arab Emirates and buff rain has signed agreements to normalize relations with israel thats the 1st major agreement between arab countries and israel since jordan and egypt signed peace treaties a quarter century ago u. S. President trying post at the white house ceremony placing himself in the role of International Peace maker ahead of us elections in november the decision by the United Arab Emirates and bahrain to normalize ties with israel breaks with decades of consensus within the arab world a peace deal with the palestinians had long been up billed as a prerequisite for establishing relations with israel but trump bad news on yahoo praised the deal as groundbreaking. For. Were here this afternoon to change the course of history after decades of division and conflict we mark the dawn of a new middle east thanks to the great courage of the leaders of these 3 countries we take a major stride toward a future in which people of all faiths and backgrounds live together in peace and prosperity im grateful to you President Trump for your decisive leadership you have unequivocal and stood by israel sarg you have boldly confronted the tyrants of terror on you proposed a realistic vision for peace between israel and the palestinians and you have successfully brokered the historic peace that we are signing today. But palestinians say there can be no resolution to the core conflict analyst they are involved and bahrains foreign minister made it clear it was too early just celebrate a just comprehensive and during 2 state solution to the palestinian israeli conflict will be the foundation the bedrock of such peace. Demonstrators really did in the occupied west bank and in the Gaza Strip Palestinians see the deal as a political move by the u. S. And israel to cut them off from their traditional allies and erode Regional Support for a palestinian state trump said he expects other arab states will also normalize relations with israel and suggested that would pressure the palestinians into reaching a peace deal with israel. Deb your correspondent. In washington tells about this important day. Well certainly important historic to see these 4 men sitting together signing these diplomatic pacts the Abraham Accords were signed by all 4 parties and israel for its part signed separate pacts with the United Arab Emirates and bought in the specifics of the deal though are not fully known as they are keeping much of it under wraps and it still has to go through the Israeli Parliament but it looks like there is a push here to enhance trade relations i do want to point out the fact that both of these gulf nations already have relations with israel in the shadows for years and now theyre certainly looking to expand on ties in the open experts say that this deal to normalize is also very much about iran that the bahrain and israel view iran as a threat in the region so while economics engagement is a major part of these deals so is the perceived Security Threat from iran so might other arab countries also look to normalize relations with israel now. Well certainly trump and netanyahu are hoping for this and promising this that there will be a domino effect throughout the arab world trump said earlier today that a handful of other nations are deep into talks already we dont know yet which countries he was referring to but certainly many eyes right now on saudi arabia but there is little indication from riyadh that theyll take up a different position than the longstanding arab stance that they wont recognize israel without statehood for the palestinians but it is certainly not worthy that the saudis likely gave bahrain the green light to proceed with their deal today so what are these 2 arab countries actually gain by signing this deal with israel. Well there are certainly looking to ramp up trade and tourism and to engage more on the economic level but there is a great focus on the political factors of these deals one major element in the agreement between israel and the u. A. E. Appears to be that israel has agreed to pause an exception in the west bank in return for recognition but we dont have confirmation from the israelis that this is a permanent pause and there is concern that Benjamin Netanyahu may at some point decide to lift that suspension in order to appease some of his domestic supporters the amorality foreign minister though insists that his countrys deal will help the Palestinian People however critics disagree and say that these moves give israel less incentive to sit down and negotiate with the palestinians another aspect that remains very much unclear is whether washington agreed to supply the u. A. E. With arms as the amorality seek to build up their military capabilities we heard trump say on tuesday that he has no problem selling f. 35 fighter jets to the amorality so plenty of moving parts and despite todays signings we still dont have confirmation on some of the more contentious elements of these deals have been reporting from washington thank you so much. The deals a blow to Palestinian Authority sort of condemns the u. A. E. And for frayne for betraying their costs hundreds of palestinians protested the move at demonstrations in the west bank and gaza warning sirens sounded in israeli coastal cities as several rockets were fired from gaza one was intercepted by israels anti Missile System and another explosion injured 2 people and damaged shops and cars. Correspondent tanya kramer is in jerusalem and earlier we asked her how palestinians are reacting. Well i think we heard already from palestinian officials at the time when those normalization agreements were announced. They said its a betrayal some called it a sellout and i talked to a lot of palestinians here in the past weeks or so theres a range of reactions to that some you know where initially very angry but also not surprised because those toys where known but they were mostly behind the scenes. There was also a sense of disappointment and abandonment and also reflected in some polls saying those countries abandon the palestinian cause at the same time theres also disappointment at their own leadership in ramallah and in gaza its a divided leadership that it that it come to this that its another problem with the trial. That there is no solution in sight at the same time also have to say theres a sense that there might be a shift in the region up until now actually palestinians could actually count at least on the publicly stated position by the arab countries that there would be no normalization with israel until israel and military occupation over palestinians and of course theres also concern that other countries might follow and that was even more so after the arab league last week failed to come together on a resolution that was brought in by the palestinians. City of louisville kentucky has agreed to pay 12000000. 00 to the family of Briana Taylor and introduced Police Reforms as part of a legal settlement taylor was shot dead in her own apartment by Police Officers who entered on a socalled no knock warrant for killing as well as that of george floyd was a catalyst for a summer of racial reckoning and months of protests in the United States the officers who shot taylor have not been charged prosecutors are still investigating the case. And for more on this im joined by activist and author Margaret Kimberly in new york her latest book president ial explores americas relationship with race thanks for joining us on d w. 12000000. 00 it appears to be one of the largest settlements off its kind in the u. S. And some are calling its historic would you agree. Its a lot of money but its not the biggest settlement the family who white women killed by the police in minnesota got 20000000. 00. So yes its a substantial sum of money but it is no substitute for justice it is no substitute for the police being punished when they kill they burst into this young womans home on the basis of this species warrant they not only shot her but did not try to revive her just allow her to leave out and she may have been saved had they. Attempted to resuscitate her the police kill 3 an average of 3 people every day in this country a 1000 people every year and monetary settlements are not enough police need to know they cannot kill with impunity that is what we need to see. So part of the settlement as part of a settlement the city has announced and plans to Reform Police practices including an overhaul of how these search warrants out how important is this in your view and is it going far enough. No its not going far enough you know i its not why do people have to be killed before the police do what they should have done anyway what we need is Community Control of Police Departments the public need to decide how policing will be carried out need to be able to decide who will be hired who will be fired need to be given an assurance that they can determine when police will be prosecuted when necessary but once again we have the same situation where the particular instance makes the news and there is a lot of protest and that is a good thing but that is no substitute for for changing policing for getting rid of the mass incarceration system for all of these abuses which make the United States one of the worst human rights abuses in the world. And all of these things it without systemic change these monetary these settlements to individual families dont mean a lot and a lot of families dont get anything ever they dont get justice they dont get compensation so this is the exception not the rule margaret came from apes thank you so much thank you lets take a look at some other stories making news around the world russian opposition media alexina viney has posts on social media for the 1st time since s. Poisoning last months he had a picture from the berlin hospital where he is being treated surrounded by his family his spokeswoman says he plans to return to russia after he recovers. German chancellor Angela Merkel has warned that anti semitism in germany has not gone away saying that today many in the Jewish Community still dont feel safe america spoke at a ceremony to mark the 70th anniversary also Central Council of jews in germany. Greece has called on the European Union to help deal with the migrant crisis unfolding on its Eastern Islands last week a fire unless balls destroyed europes largest migrant camp and today European Union Council President. Also peel to e. U. Nations to step up their response to the crisis on tuesday germany is that it would take in more than 1500. 00 migrants from greece. As he walked away from a temporary migrant camp on the greek island of lesbos European Union Council President Bashar Michel made it clear he was not walking away from the problem. Very complex situation both on behalf of the European Union i would want to see that i refuse. Although this challenge is a common european trial and by the end of the month you can commission intense new concrete proposals from. Those proposals that are expected to include tougher border policing policies and renewed efforts to resettle migrants across the European Union in the day both michelle and the greek Prime Minister jointly appealed for more solidarity from the e. U. Athens wants other Member States to help run the new refugee camps being built on greeces Eastern Islands. Meanwhile the greek army has set up temporary accommodation for thousands of migrants displaced by the fires at the more a camp. Across the bay from these temporary camps many greek residents say they feel sorry for the migrants. And i too would like to see more solidarity from the e. U. Then economy this is not a proper solution if there are 27. 00 European Union states if they all took 400. 00 people it wouldnt even show up because theyre big countries that if each country took in 400 people the problem would be solved. But with the e. U. So fast drug dealing to find a unified approach to the market crisis at its border is a lasting solution could still be a long road ahead. Youre watching t. V. News live from berlin thatll be a documentary a World Without beethoven is up next im hearing from a stein thanks for watching. Life earth. The kind. Of. Coincidences. That happened. On a bit like winning the lottery. Or unique start september 18th on t w. Ringback look we found beethoven challenge his musicians technically like no other composer did before im very happy that he did because he wrote fantastic solos for the horn a World Without beethoven i cant even begin to imagine ludovick fun beethoven shaped entire musical genres pushing boundaries and even breaking them he was a pioneer and not just when it came to music what would be missing today in jazz or film scores if it hadnt been for beethovens many innovations with the concert business as we know it even exist and how did beethoven change the role of the artist what would a World Without beethoven look like thats what i wanted to find out so i visited musicians managers even politicians all over the world to trace influence my journey begins with the most famous 4 notes in Classical Music and their enormous influence on popular music. He did something actually quite clever without making it too. To relentlessly. It all started with beethoven and chuck berry. I think. Chuck berry might not agree but rocknroll started here. The tweet from beethoven needed just 4 notes to create an entire musical cosmos and one of the most famous compositions of all time. Beethovens 5th symphony 1st performed in 1808. 00 is a global hit only for notes and they still challenge musicians today. Relentlessly going on with the bass guitar. He and anderson from the band jethro tull also needed just 4 notes to write the 971 hit single locomotive breath. Brutal shango the rhythm guitarist for the german band scorpions raise the stakes to 5 you know i. Guitarist in rock you like a hurricane is one of the most popular in recent musical history. Supposed only by the original. In his 5th symphony beethoven constantly varies the 4 notes through all the orchestral parts and keys. The simplicity of the idea amazed his contemporaries 150 years later the concept was rediscovered in england by rock musicians. Half. The kinks were among the 1st in 1964 with just 3 notes. A year later 3 notes were told the Rolling Stones needed to be and they still werent satisfied. Deep purple became superstars with these 4 notes. The idea caught on in the United States as well and heavy metal was full of catchy riffs. These 4 notes shot nirvana to stardom in 1901. And the white stripes 5 notes have become a Global Football challenge. To face over and discover the perfect formula for a hit song back in 1808. We are in hanover at the expo park and im standing right in front of the very famous peppermint studios where inside the scorpions are rehearsing. Lluvia. Comes to mind was the only new moon a leader. With over 110000000 records sold the scorpions are one of the most successful bands of their generation. Wrote the bands best known guitarists. You know what i found i think this quote from the internet. Is the beethoven of hanover. Thats very flattering but there are worlds between us you can take that too seriously but thats a nice thing i was. So happy when i read that its about if its a topic. It has to be played aggressively. Thats right now we put a beautiful suspenseful node under a toll on dialing. With a crescendo there like that just some suspense so many rock bands have stolen beethoven. Of course the subconscious always plays a role for example americans have been influenced by the blues the europeans the english and of course we germans especially reuters have been influenced by Classical Music because its in our genes. Thats why metallica are such big scorpions fans they said hold on a scorpion sound completely different guns weve got to check this out. They noticed wait a minute there are other influences and then they notice the influence of Classical Music because the blues shape you differently form isnt gonna it was very here cant play the blues at all were shaped by Classical Music in such a way that we. Its on melody and a certain with all of us to what was complex and. Told us the rifts. I believe that the rifts are perceived differently over the decades and centuries in the past life was less hectic side on the subject is hot stock is nowadays theres an abundance of everything so you have to find something that is signaling effect this is extremely important when done with and then you have to keep that feeling alive so that its not only there for a short time and dies off. Is something gets or not when one doesnt have time when youre writing music you have to arouse curiosity in order to keep the listener with you. So i stay in my bio study of live. The results short melodic riffs which inspire audiences around the world. The flute is in andersons trademark he has been influenced by both english folk music and the greats of Classical Music. I was comparing the. Beethovens 5th the Opening Statement as being. Typical of the the motif in music not just Classical Music rock music jazz pop whatever im ot for an idea that is that is repeated very often as a repeating motif which then tends to be shortened to risk the idea of a rift in jazz or rock is usually a root a repeating motif of chord beethoven did did use that idea and develops that idea of that. And i would guess this is what happened with beethoven he wasnt sitting the mulling over the same few notes. He probably just went he probably spilled his coffee and accidentally went oh that sounds good which is the way most of us work. A good rock or if i suppose is going to be simple direct its going to repeat because it is truly a riff not just a m o t for an opening gambit if you like a statement its usually a repeating phrase so that the you know the great right wrist i suppose that comes to mind so come to my mind perhaps one of the greatest ever would have been Ritchie Blackmore the wonderful ricin a piece called smoke on the water you know i love the one that was easy top one that is this wonderful shuffle thing with a lot of back beat stuff that is called la grange. Which repeats all the way through. Thats a great rock with very simple one to play just centuries its really 3 notes. And in many ways you know its that same saying wheres the wonderful whole lot of love which is in the whisky and. Maybe beethoven you see and if he was born again today i dont really see him riding around in the stately family for safety is with 2 screaming kids in the back i think of beethoven more like an off road motorcycle guy you know getting a bit down and dirty in the mud thats my idea of the beethoven. And. Repetitive motifs have always played a defining role in music but beethoven amplified their impact and pop music is still influenced by him today beethoven had any idea that 150 years later musicians would continue to be so inspired by him i went to vienna where he became famous to find out more. In 792 beethoven didnt arrive in vienna as a celebrity on a motorcycle but as a young piano virtuoso in a horse drawn carriage he had already earned a considerable reputation in bonn and quickly became a well known face in vienna his musical society. Beethoven clearly left his mark on the austrian capital. His homes are now museums and the places he worked on our sites of pilgrimage for his fans from all around the world. When he arrived in vienna as a 21 year old composition student there was no indication his a rival here would divide musical history. Into the world before beethoven and the world after beethoven. In vienna beethoven developed into an artist and composer of International Standing starting with his 1st symphony he demonstrated his systematic approach
