Huge crowds denounced the president of ukraine as an antique her option rally led by former georgian leader Mikhail Saakashvili. A very warm welcome you are watching the weekly here on r. T. International with mina herring good to have you with us this hour. And the west bank and gaza protesters have gathered to burn u. S. And israeli flags as well as effigies of the two countries leaders this follows more than a week of deadly violence since Donald Trumps decision to recognize jerusalem as israels capital. City. Tensions east peace is right people are throwing tear gas bombs that are filling that place. Was. We still have nothing else but free zone and tensions are in the. Making. That is that throughout the week author has been haring reaction to the latest surge of unrest in the region people can open the bible and to count how many times jerusalem is a base and there they will find out told so that jerusalem is not mentioned even one time in the koran not even one time people will find out that jerusalem is the capital of israel since nine hundred forty eight the whole world is condemning this action because simply its against the International Law its against the framework for the Peace Process is has forfeited the United States for fear that its position as a broker to the Peace Process and ill tell you something the israelis have going for palestinians in the past two days. In peaceful protests while no israeli worse killed there was an injury in an attack in and west jerusalem everything is a lie first everything my opponent says is a lie there were three terrorists killed in gaza strip which has nothing to do with the protests here because gaza strip they fired rockets and they they forget about it they just forget that they fire rockets at israeli kindergarten when people who are followers of hijab in that whole say name hitler skull operator of the ring cycle of world war those who created fatah before nine hundred sixty seven to destroy israel when this was this the said personalities common to teach us morality listen it cannot be defended themselves why they are illegally on somebody elses land that is unacceptable what they done what they do and what i have been doing since one thousand nine hundred seven is an aggression and with your other guests this radical has never been to your land never been the old man the history of those land they were born in russia donald trump. Kept his promises and his trying to do it his best way are grateful but the issue is not dogma problem the issue as these people go wrong. In a says europeans russians americans and we are here in the middle east the only democracy of the only all the only really a light in a very dark environment where shock waves from president chimes made have spread through the muslim world the turkish president has announced plans to open an embassy to palestine in East Jerusalem as ation of islamic cooperation held an emergency session in turkey on wednesday and all fifty seven nations back to the palestinians claim to the east of the ancient thirty. Three us decision on your roof for them because of this great bias against the historical and right see how much of your belief is important i want to point out to ignore some of the distortions and see the United States the solution to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel is a dangerous one it will threaten security and stability and through straits efforts to resume the Peace Process the president is committed to this Peace Process as committed as he has ever been yet as a mediator every possible step must be taken to prevent the implementation of this illegal action by the u. S. Administration sure however there is one question that sticks out here what factors and never once made it possible for the u. S. President stood there to take such an outrageous act that type of rhetoric that we heard has prevented peace in the past and its not necessarily surprising to us despite criticism from Muslim Leaders and european allies President Trump seems unconcerned explain. Pilots now the time of year in which israel celebrates hanukkah and this comes after Donald Trumps dramatic decision on jerusalem which may seem like a huge gift we wish you a very happy hanukkah. And i think this one will go down as especially special. Right now im thinking about whats going on and the love thats all over his you know and all about jerusalem love thats all over israel trump one is far is actually praising himself for the all but controversial move his point his predecessors only made promises where he actually delivered. Jerusalem is still the capital of israel and most remain unknown divided city accessible questions that take us as i would begin the process of moving the United States ambassador to the city israel has chosen as i continued to say that. Jerusalem will be the capital of israel so why is time so gleeful about his decision as the International Community praised him for it nope they didnt just decision we do know and agree clearly disagree these decisions are helpful from the European UnionMember States sites this move would not come so is it what the American People want well not according to this poll taken ahead of trumps decision sixty three percent of americans say that they oppose the move but its popular in israel right well not with all israelis they think of only friends leave in years and they. Are in much greater risk than they were with i think it will because of. People dead and. Violence i think it was a reckless this season and it takes less time to announce it is like a man who was playing in a coma defeated or in the. In gangsta. So its taking us three still suddenly and is shooting over friends told me it day he announces that theyre pretty much scared to go but the drizzling because they dont know how its going to be in their scared to leave the house says but trump did win over some of his harsh critics in the democratic camp. Jerusalem is the capital of the state of israel something the United States congress has reaffirmed the fact of history that cannot be tonight. I support the decision to recognize jerusalem as the eternal capital of israel and to move the u. S. Embassy to this decision is long overdue and helps correct a decades long indignity there may be benefits for him personally he may be a tipping his hat to his base and saying you know this is a Campaign Promise that i made he sees it more important for his personal legacy for his supporters to do this regardless of its effect on World Opinion regardless of its effect on the United States and the World Opinion and regarding the suffix on the palestinian. People the world is not happy with the move america is not happy with the move but donald trump thinks its terrific a year ago at his inauguration donald trump said that from here forward it would be America First well its starting to look like maybe its trump first. R. T. New york when he washing troops are returning home from syria just in time for christmas a new year and i thought the president putin announced it was Mission Accomplished during a surprise visit to the country on monday ok you see soldiers being welcomed home at a base outside moscow they were met by an orchestra and received state on a School Bus Service elated family members who also. Plays a visit to syria was the first for the russian leader Vladimir Putin told personnel at the latakia base that their work was complete now thought to be Russian Defense ministry declared Islamic State defeated in syria. I mean you talk about it on there to the defense minister and the head of the general staff order to start and he will draw all of the Russian Forces to their Permanent Base and if the terrorists dare to raise their heads again we will strike back with the strength theyve never seen before. Well heres a quick timeline of events in twenty fifteen when Islamic State controlled almost half of syria damascus sent a request to moscow for help in the fight against the extremists working with the Syrian Military the Russian Air Force launched surgical strikes on terrorist positions dealing a significant blow to isos infrastructure well that aerial support is considered one of the main reasons for the Campaign Success and many other forces also joined the effort to liberate cities and the surrounding regions. To. Leave would be. A less standoff one believes the u. S. Coalition should now follow russias lead and pull out of syria i think the russia is sending a strong strong message to the syrian to the whole of the middle east and at ups that muslims that you know there are very very supportive to their allies and they will never let them down if there are some safe a good example by saying that we are pulling our troops from syria i think this is a clear my seafood American Administration that they should actually pull our business from c. N. N. Not only from cedar but also from iraq so there is no need for them to be there u. S. Troops in syria was illegal and now a bill will be more in. Legal i believe that pretext which actually was taken by the american or used by the American Administration to send troops to the syria now is that it. Wasnt protested in the ukrainian capital on sunday against government corruption the march was organized by former georgian president turned ukraine Opposition LeaderMikhail Saakashvili protesters stormed a concert hall in the center of kiev where its believed fact especially had to set up a command center to continue the rally. I. Was. Daniel hawkins told my colleague you know what triggered the demonstration in care estimated thousands attending this particular protest calling for the impeachment of president poroshenko and the standing down of the countrys prosecutor general. As part of the wider protests against corruption and against as we heard there excessive government privilege in the government structures so very much i dont go in situation really in the capital of ukraine well theres probably a pretty wide spectrum of people here many of them may have protested in the twenty thirteen fourteen modern protest but for example the black flags you can see just the pinpoint one image actually carried usually by the followers of ukrainian nationalist parties right wing parties as well. Make up some element of the protesters as they did of course factor several years ago in the modern protests as well though these are people again who are just unhappy with the continuingly uncertain political situation in the country who may have had their hopes dashed by the revolution of twenty thirty forty this seem to be headed by. People who may remember the name would associate him as being the four. President of georgia but hes involved in a separate country here hes quite a controversial figure isnt he here because this really actually had his citizenship revoked from georgia he gave that up to become a citizen of ukraine at the invitation of president poroshenko a good friend of his actually went and studied at University Together theyve got a history together he was invited to be the matter of address or a region in ukraine that was later revoked when he became critical of the regime is now officially stateless and the Ukrainian Government authorities want to have a victim from the country deported from the country has been very critical of the regime using a very strong take a listen to what he had to say today at the protest u. G. We werent shake the country we have only one country but the dog what we have is a government which we will shake into we demolish it so that it never comes back we can see the sort of fire brought rhetoric he really doesnt mince his words actually one sort of criminal charges both in georgia and in ukraine where funnily enough hes accused by authorities of trying to organize a criminal who led by all people by a pro russian for president going to code which has there been a big reaction from the public there from authorities well i can bring you two reactions from western representatives in the country the canadian ambassador the former British Ambassador to ukraine judith gul theyve said they condemn rather attempts to seize and damage public buildings on abuse of the right to peaceful protests both of their masters. Have stated this that was a reference of course of the images you saw there of public trying to storm a concert hall being pushed back by the Police Service people inside the theater at the time as well we believe there was a concert going on inside at the time the police tried to stop them going in we have reports of Police Officers be humid we dont know how many people have been arrested really should but was that there have been some minor skirmishes lot of the levels weve seen perhaps of previous protests but so little of passion there going on and interesting to see the reaction of course from these western represented. Who do thirteen fourteen a level of criticism level called emotion at the Security Forces lot of the protesters almost streets. There was a bit of different story though with those particular protests. President putin has called donald trump to thank the cia for vital intelligence that prevented a terror attack in from petersburg according to a statement from the white house the two leaders agreed that the case quote serves as an example of the positive things that can occur without countries work together. Cochon of a has the details. And a telephone conversation Vladimir Putin to thank the u. S. President donald trump for held in preventing a terrorist attack which was planned to take place in the city of St Petersburg on saturday now he also added that the Russian Security services would always also share information with their colleagues in the United States eve and when they need data concerning possible planned attacks on u. S. Soil now the russian president said that the data that was provided by the u. S. Security services was enough to track down and detain members of the terrorists out and in total Russian Security services detained seven suspects and it was also revealed that the attack was planned for saturday with one location believed to be the cathedral which is situated right in the center of the city and is quite a popular tourist a landmark now during the raid a large amount blows if so where guns and ammunition was seized and it was also reported that the extremists were planning a serious of attacks including as suicide bombing however a lot. Of them happened thanks to this most recent example of a successful anti terror cop. Aeration between russia and the United States. But as lawmakers hounded Prime Minister to resume a landmark defeat on wednesday eleven rebels from her own conservative party voted with the opposition to give parliaments the power to veto any brags that agreements the meaningful vote a meaningful vote a meaningful vote article fifty has a deadline the date has been served we are leaving at the end of march and when the deadline runs out we leave that leaving the European Union and we should say no Parliament Taking back control extends the article fifty dead like before we leave the European Union amendments seven is floor is just my view the washington unproductive negotiations to drag things out drag out the negotiations to delay friendship for months and months and months scrutinize what of the government is doing proper scrutiny this is not the moment to try and defeat because you. Joe are just all charred its been eighteen months since the referendum saw fifty two percent of voters chose to leave the European Union although the poll showed clear divisions within the u. K. Itself it was only in march this year that the government kicked off the exit process prompting the often strange negotiations with brussels which followed and on the latest development Opposition LeaderJeremy Corbyn said m. P. s delivered a humiliating loss of all baretti for the government and that power is now back in the hands of Parliament Despite the Prime Minister earlier claiming the governments strategy was on track. But there is there is i believe a new sense of optimism now in the talks and id. Like to thank and express the we will confirm the arrangements i have set out today in the European Council later this week to resume might have secured a better. To result in the house of commons has she not lost her partys majority. Leader this year she only managed to stay in power through a one billion pound deal with the Northern IrishDemocratic Unionist PartyPolitical WriterDan Glazebrook believes the Prime Minister can no longer overlook the deep divisions within her own party theres a humiliation and has Authority Governments dont tend to last very long after after after they get treated at the hands of their own backbenchers to i think it shows that the government the government is really up for grabs really demonstrates how insincere the conservatives were in their promise that they would. Vote on the final deal to parliament because if they were sincere why would they be so determined even at the risk of a parliamentary just defeat to resist making this into a legally binding commitment. In value of bitcoin briefly hit an all time high of twenty thousand dollars on sunday has become so popular with millennial is that by the end of twenty eighteen its thought one in three would have invested in the cryptocurrency well that prediction was made by the london bloc exchange thats britains First Digital currency institution in light of this meteoric rise heres what you need to know about bitcoin. Bitcoin is it a Financial Model still not reached no miss for centuries its taken over the title of biggest bubble in history from what was known as in the netherlands because its value has surged by on sixty times in the last three years thats faster than two bulbs in the seventeenth century which one point worth ten years was skilled craftsman surnames back then prices were driven by greed or fear of missing out but as more people caught in the boat quick profits a flurry of sales collapsed the price left many with crippling debt this recording is being called the digital tool of the twenty First Century is the same pattern emerges the fear of missing out on new investors piling. Critics say the perceived value of the currency like the chill it is being conjured up to finance but the ever growing army of bitcoin believers say its here to stay with an operational market in full flow around the clock and new places all of the world ready to accept the cryptic currency as payment even a church in london is happy to accept donations of the virtual kind with the size of the market already surpassed and some countries economies including new zealand influential banks are being left behind but as history shows us boom is usually followed by bust and soon it could be fit course time to wilt or blossom. And the Financial Experts advise to on the side of caution as fascination builds around the currency when we spoke to an investor who thinks the rise of crypto is just the beginning im no expert im just an enthusiastic but i do not believe this is a bubble its just the beginning of an Adoption Rate of the technology how damaging could the losses be though if prices suddenly drop we have heard people putting savings into it effects its so large just nodded affects so many Different Things if the prices did suddenly drop would it be a catastrophe of course that it could be said for anything really if people are storing value in it that they cant live without a lot of the current there when you do say only invest money you can live without and dont use any money that youre emotionally attached to so that way if it is in a volatile market and thats what crypto currency is right now its extremely risky its highly volatile and if youre emotionally attached to any value put into it you might be up late at night biting your nails in the overall scale of things if the cryptocurrency bubble does person i understand theres a lot of Different Things we have to go wrong for that to happen of course what the repercussions on the rest of the financial world and markets is it is it big i would actually be more worried about if the public doesnt burst what kind of effects it could have on the World Economy if it doesnt burst it may actually have more repercussions that if it were to burst today even if you wanted to sell a Million Dollars early said billionaires somebody wanted to sell a billion dollars worth of big point today its not easy so it would take a long time for that to happen and if youre an investor and cryptocurrency is if you do sell your crypto there are ideal ideologies behind it where you want to sell your crypto to somebody whos looking to invest in it whos going to hold it long term that way the cryptocurrency youre holding and waiting to sell because you have to do it live. By little it doesnt lose value drastically over time because you just dumped it on the market when i forget to have your sound the day stories by following us on facebook and twitter join me again in about thirty five minutes without lying.

Not committed and would commit most of them have to leave. Them some loose mccown somehow almost all of them solo and they are. Counting on my blog letting them know either. Because were still only forty you short tournament. I mean a chance you owe your life by beautiful but it will its a big one so if you wife whatever some have six thought. It through a stupid story. For. Fun and welcome to worlds apart at first glance there isnt much in common between defied of the syrian kurds against isis and the development of bitcoin but both causes have captured the imagination of an anarchist a round of wild dreaming about autonomy from the din state one of them is a mere talk a big point developer and anti isis fighters he joins us today on worlds apart well mr tak its great to talk to you think you very much for being with us today hello thank you for having me here now you are a committed an artist and a big part of the anarchist ideology is a rejection of the state and yet somehow you ended up in syria fighting alongside the kurds against isis which is also a group that rejects the syrian state at least in its current shape and form how do you reconcile the struggle of the cut. In the middle east in north syria. Is based off of ideology called democratic come federalism which is. An ideology the takes a lot from. The nyquist ideology is really is something no no go off as a way for. Hasnt been able for the last century on a case to be able to organize to shape Politics Around what the cuts have done is to make a very good critique of. And support food a proposal for how we can engage in politics in this century to be able to. Advance the cause of humanity food with all due respect i think when it comes to the struggle in their fight spirit i says its not really so much about diet geologist much is about their survival i dont thing i says every li thinks much about. Can federalism as you explained it i think for them its just. Ethnic and perhaps religious hatred so from what i understand the kurdish fight was primarily for survival rather than their political or social vision. Your main drive of the movement is the ideology thats what gives them strength as a movement in the middle east throughout the arab spring there are Many Political movements and all of them failed my friends if you look what happened in egypt there were a lot of use sites organized through facebook they went to Tahrir Square to the front the military dictatorship a lot of people were killed in a struggle and they threw out the military dictatorship and then off to it is ok now what do we do ok were going to sit down and have a discussion and then they side to talk and in rushed a group of guys with a vision with aplomb
