But there are two tribes these are sunni arab tribes one called into it the other jaish these are famous tribes from the area of say enjoy the historical homeland of the according to the izzy these two specific tribes were complicit with isis and the day that isis arrived in the area these tribes helped isis to round up his east turn women into sex slaves and to massacre other members of the z. T. Community since then i have spent much time with u. C. D. Elders who told me they had drawn up a list of individuals and of tribes and would target them and kill them if they had the chance heard of incidents where what is now a group of u. C. B. Fighters you see the militia empowered on the payroll of the baghdad government that has targeted members of these two tribes but what we understand is that they are targeting anyone from these tribes women children men not because they were specifically involved in isis abuses and abuses against the israelis but just be care because they carry the name of this tribe according to top iraqi officials almost seven thousand year d. B. People were kidnapped by i saw in two thousand and fourteen alone and three thousand are still missing. Little. The men would offer us and skiffs in the evenings they would get together and trade the women and have their fun with us. For. A cause of. It was indescribable funny laugh turned into endless suffering tears and hunger i couldnt do anything not quite. Or will who you heard from earlier told us the cycle of revenge killings in iraq is damaging hopes of restoring peace. And even in these battles against isis has been to end a horrific cycle of violence and erupt violence in iraq allowing groups of armed actors to target tribes to target women children men and we have had nothing to do with the crimes of isis with complete impunity allowing them to torture and execute with impunity really will spell disaster for the next steps in iraq in any hopes of Reconciliation Community its.

Danger coming into our country weve seen it since we have to already build vaults against our Christmas Markets this is a development we do not want to see really policy should change we should not continue to have this mass migration of illegal Mass Immigration we do have we have to count and see who the people who came to our country have to register them this is a process which has not been come to an end and we must close the borders in order to have a Stable Society you can go much further than the Security Forces or the politicians in germany goal so thats a problem and that i think this is not a good sign for the new year to come.

These are the hawks that we along the border will walk. Through and welcome agnes is International Live from moscow so a key suspect has been arrested following a supermarket bombing in the russian city of St Petersburg volga has the latest. Well the Russian Security services put out a statement saying that they have identified and detained the alleged organizer and perpetrator of this attack that took place on wednesday they emphasize that they do believe this was a one man working by himself he planned and carried out the attack all by himself and no further information about the suspect has been released as of yet but we do know that hes being questioned by the Russian Investigative Committee and they have already come out saying that they are going to make a request to officially arrest him on that charge well a man who is believed to be seen i believe we can show you a video right now of the man hes seen entering a Grocery Store with a backpack on and its believed that this is the man who left that backpack in a locker near the entrance of the Grocery Store and then quickly left and the resulting blast left over a dozen people injured and some of which are still in hospital unfortunately and in the aftermath of president bush came out saying that this was a terrorist attack the day after he said that Islamic State did take credit for the explosion and of course now the suspect is in custody we will be hoping for more information on what the motivation was and what not of course many will remember that earlier this year and april another terrorist attack did take place in St Petersburg and there metro and that killed over that killed fourteen people and wounded over forty more and that was one of the most deadly terrorist attacks to have taken place in that city but of course it actually could have been in fact worse because there was a second device that just did not explode and was diffused in time. Russia has had a very busy year in two thousand and seventeen that is if you believe the Mainstream Media especially this is when it comes to sowing discord and interfering in elections worldwide russias foreign minister had a few words to say about this in his latest interview take a look. Does all the billboard. But it. Is. You know we. Often what youre doing you. Know that you post what i write. You mean you listen to the political news theres a simple use your words. As. Weve said you know just about the bill will go go go go go. So did you hear that russias foreign minister actually admitted to meddling in elections around the world i dont Pay Attention as i did no no that is actually a video. What do you think do you think that that actually i mean are you surprised by that that he would admit to actually meddling in the u. S. Election absolutely i think it definitely changed everything that the public was seeing right now and of course he would never meet if they did anyway right its quite surprising that he would admit something and even go further its actually its a prank video it was a comedy show that he did he was totally being sarcastic i mean this only i knew. He was being sarcastic ok much more sense youre saying hes joking yeah it was a Comedy Program yeah right but who knows that hes joking do you feel like people are predisposed to believe negative things about russia one hundred years ago and to say i think that we have a very negative connotation about people and yeah its the way versions are pictured than western countries. The son of an elderly french aid worker abducted in mali says the families do. Supported by how little president has done to help free her so. Seventy two years old back in two thousand and sixteen she was abducted in the city of by the local terrorists this july she was shown in socalled proof of life the footage released by al qaeda it shows her alongside five other captives her son says despite an Ongoing Investigation he has received no information about his mother nor to. The parents prosecutor ordered an urgent investigation but his tools we are now trying to find new materials to restart it so that it wont be a balance indeed to a lack of results we are establishing contacts to try to trace in seeking any information to establish with the shes alive and when she might be found so far we have no news nothing concrete be the from the kidnappers not from any contact persons and also nothing from the foreign ministrys crisis center. Over the past five years the number of people kidnapped by terrorists has been rising sharply last year there were almost sixteen thousand cases worldwide after hostage footage of sophia was posted online the french president pledged to eradicate the militants behind the kidnapping however after a year her whereabouts are still unknown. Egyptians will be a little but the odds of it will today my thoughts are with our competitor its a fifty seven on who was abducted on Christmas Eve be sure that all the resources of the state are being mobilized to find her and bring her back to her family but also be certain that as far as im concerned i will not give in to any provocation because that is precisely what our attackers want its good that they can be contacted for support but our family has been disappointed by the governments failure to make any decisions on this case yes its wonderful that we have being supported but the one who really needs support is my mother we need to ask mr quinn about this he has power in the situation he can decide on a course of action it must be admitted that so far no progress has been made in tackling this matter. Iran has been gripped by nationwide rallies both for and against the government it started as a protest against the soaring prices and unemployment and snowballed into the biggest Antigovernment Movement since two thousand and nine but later on much larger crowds turned out in support of the countrys Supreme Leader in spite of that though the us is only focusing on one side thats the antigovernment side. Many reports of peaceful protests by iranian citizens fed up with regimes corruption and squandering of the nations wealth to Fund Terrorism a brooch. Iranian government should respect their peoples rights including the right to express themselves the world is watching but already we do see that foreign players are involving themselves in Iranian Affairs and this is ironic because the United States right now is complaining about a legit russian involvement in the us elections even though theyve never provided any evidence for this but i personally dont think that this is anything of major significance i think the west and the western media they want to exaggerate the importance these are protests. That were small most of them were expressing their economic revenge theres a very few who are expressing how so the tea towards the government or the state and today theyre actually counter protests against those groups that were protesting against the political order and they were much larger in numbers across the country but again those were not reflected in the western.

To professors from San Diego State university claim farmers markets in the u. S. Are contributing to the oppression of the countrys minorities. Now the a professor is claiming almost half of all markets are a catalyst for gentrification and this leads to the exclusion of poorer long term residents and people of color and also reinforces the Consumption Habits of white people this is despite markets often being established to help promote lower income and minority communities and it is not the first time this year the race card has been played on apparently innocent issues. When they play those shoes there they knew that they would be cutting off this community. And this is it for me was how ill be back at the top of next hour full of news this is art international.
