Hello good morning its 10 oclock here in moscow youre watching r. T. International the us has conducted its 1st test of a 500 kilometer Cruise Missile a type of previously banned for over 30 years under a now defunct arms control treaty between washington and moscow. Has more. Well we have official word from the pentagon that indeed there has been a test of a missile that would have violated the intermediate range Nuclear Forces treaty that treaty has now expired and the usa has conducted a test of a missile that would have violated it heres what we heard from the pentagon the department of defense conducted to fly test of the conventionally configured ground Cruise Missile the u. S. West coast sunday the test missile exited its ground mobile launcher and accurately in practice target after more than 500. 00 flight now the test was conducted on San Nicolas Island off the coast of california we understand furthermore that the test was announced on august 2nd the very day that the i. N. F. Treaty expired now the official reason for the United States withdrawing from the i. N. F. Treaty was that they accused russia of violating that agreement now russia has said they did not and denies violating this agreement we also heard from russian president Vladimir Putin who emphasized that russia wont be the 1st to boost its military if the usa were not to escalate following the withdrawal of the treaty this is what the russian president said if we receive verified information that the u. S. Has finished developing and started producing these Systems Russia will be forced to begin its own full Scale Development of similar missiles so even after the United States withdrew from the i. N. F. Treaty we did not see an escalation from russia however the United States has proceeded to test this missile that would have violated the treaty now its important to remember that the i. N. F. Treaty was signed in 1987 and it was a key moment in the scaling down in deescalation and eventually end of the cold war however that i. N. F. Treaty that banned nuclear and missiles of a certain length is no longer in effect now russia has repeatedly reached out to the United States for dialogue around this issue but so far the conversation hasnt seemed to start. Well peter because nic is from the american eucharist studies institute and he says that the u. S. Has been pulling back from arms control treaties for years United States has said that this is not Nuclear Capable and the United States is planning for another test probably in november this one is somewhere between 508000 kilometers a range but the one that theyre testing in november its miscreants 3004000 kilometers or range thats another one this is a very unfortunate moves that have been going on for the past couple years at least well we can actually dated back to 2001 with the announcement that the u. S. Is going to clear the a. B. M. Treaty theres only one major nonproliferation treaty remaining the new start treaty which ends in 2021 and the United States has already indicated that it will almost certainly out of that one also or not when they do that one which means we are on the verge of nuclear anarchy. With the news this morning the u. S. Attorney general William Barra sacked the director of u. S. Prisons after the death of disgraced billionaire Jeffrey Epstein the circumstances of the convicted paedophile suicide spark concerns over conditions at the jail where he was kept another high profile inmate bedrock baron jack quinn El Chapo Guzman has also raised the alarm to about life in the prison when we spoke to. Mark furniture to also represented epstein. The conditions to which he was subjected would buckle even the knees of the strongest among us its this is one of the toughest federal pretrial detention facilities in the country and the conditions are inhumane epstein was subjected to conditions that were similar to those of guzman but not remotely justified by his character or what he was accused of because he was not. A violent individual like chapo was alleged to have been hes not a guy who has escaped from prior facilities like guzman was alleged to have done so one would be comparing apples and oranges to liken the 2 to each other but yet their conditions of confinement were strikingly similar and theres something fundamentally wrong with that and whats fundamentally wrong with that is that geoffrey abstain did not belong in that facility to begin with. Just my own personal opinion it wouldnt surprise me to learn of anything that might have happened with Jeffrey Epstein and in my view at that in that facility the real story the real miracle is that we dont hear about these sort of things more about murdered pretrial detainees or suicidal pretrial detainees because the facility. Is barbaric and its a whole its a its its like i dont use the word lightly lightly but its sort of like an american go log for people who have not yet been convicted of anything so the real shock here is that we dont hear about deaths at pretrial oppressive onerous pretrial detention facilities like the m. C. C. More often. Any of us could one day find ourselves rightly or wrongly on on the. Business and of of the United States department of justice and nobody nobody sued should be subjected to the conditions that epstein was exposed to for many reasons one of which is that compromises your mental and physical functioning and you cant assist adequately in preparing your own defense and it crushes people we dont really know what happened to mr epstein but but certainly i believe personally that being a locked in a facility like that under extraordinary conditions would logically wreak havoc with ones mind and body so i certainly i certainly believe that they personally that they could have played a role absolutely i mean i think we would be foolish to to deny that but again one doesnt want to treat the symptom while ignoring the disease and the disease is how people are routinely denied bail with a shocking ease given the laws that Congress Passed allowing prosecutors and judge to do that epstein did not belong locked up pending trial and he didnt belong in a hellhole like that before he had been convicted of anything. Now a social Media Network aimed young british muslims has turned out to be possibly u. K. Government Counterterrorism Program on the story from london his saskia. What is a social News Platform the word thing a popular used to describe someone whos acutely aware of social justice issues especially racism uses bright colors and has a martin bold design its a space for political engage young people to come together and discuss the burning issues of the day. Were created for us to eat. Just lies really which is you. Know topic as off limits out woke Climate Change beacon to some gender issues kept the something for everyone across its pages has around 73000 followers and one of its most successful videos has hit 1700000 of you mark but scrolling through its pages one can see that its content is primarily centered around the experience of british muslims and their identity and politics so alongside islamic holiday well wishes youll also find debates on different perspectives of terrorism for example but no one has an issue with the content of what with it sponsor because the report has just revealed that the platform is the covert arm of the u. K. Government counterterrorism strategy now the home office hasnt been particularly forthcoming with details about its involvement and what it did it meant it has material from the project or if you start any question about the motives its meant or indeed the methods that it uses electrically on the grounds of National Security and its short statement on the issue didnt really help clarify the issue any thought that weve committed to using all the tools available to counter the threat from terrorism in the u. K. The home office works in partnership with a range of organizations to reduce vulnerability to organized criminal extremist and to. Throats in the u. K. Its not just the white a public road users who want told to the governments role the report also reveals that people who were invited on to work can actually featured in discussions that want formed it was part of a home office and they should have an initiative called prevent that is cause great control to see since its implementation back in 2003 and its been called nothing more than state sanctioned spying targeting the Muslim Community is probably unsurprising them that given the revelation that work is related to that very project the backlash against it was quite strong this complete absence of transparency is just one of many reasons why there is such little trust between muslim communities and government so angry about home office this is work situation i cant articulate myself how can the government expect muslims not to have trust issues with our government. The betrayal of trust that we face at every level of every institution include an online spaces media platforms arts and cultural events civic life and Everything Else is honestly something i think everyone concerned with racism and all needs to be screaming about this is urgent a recent segment on discussed tackling fake news the irony im sure is not lost on many now who look at the platform and see it as a minute factor brand filled with content promoting the secret agenda on behalf of the British Government so there are questions being raised here especially in a country which was once voted as the most transparent in the world suster taylor r t in london. Where the Zinc Media Group which runs wolk told us it is proud of the work it undertakes for its clients meanwhile facebook is expanding its fake news crackdown to its instagram platform users will be able to flag what they deem to be suspicious posts and the content can be marked fake or for some of then be deleted from searches while experts assess its status now for example suppose that somebody poses a false statement online such as this one with the hash tag math expert now if somebody flags it up is false it will stop appearing under that hash tag however social Media Privacy advocate bill he bill news story is skeptical the safeguard will prove to be a success. Its when you get into pictures and primarily with video where things start to get really really difficult and at this moment in time the automated tools that theyre using cannot tell the difference between a cat a dog and a terrorist at this moment in time the having certainly with lydia on facebook platform to use an enormous number of an army of people who sit and do nothing but look through these videos to moderate them and to recognize them with taking this sort of technique to instagram which is largely a picture based medium and obviously the same challenges are going to face them and if they havent got the resources to absolutely get on top of things on facebook you have to question whether theyve also got resources to police in spawn as well so i think what we need to see is accuracy and authenticity.

But his cabinet might have an explanation since theyve been meeting with one of the oppositions main icons jimmy lie. Appreciation lies a selfmade billionaire whos made a huge mark on hong kongs Opposition Movement he landed himself in hot water with beijing back in 2012 when his newspaper published an ad portraying pregnant Chinese Women as locusts and hes very open about his feelings for American Values we need to know that america is behind us but back in our some america is showing moral authority because we are the only place in china which shares your values and is fighting the same battle you have with china but theres another younger and not so rich rebel leader at play here too joshua wong a fresh 22 year old face of revolution a face loved in many corridors of washington to marco rubio was so in all he nominated wong for a Nobel Peace Prize leave it to washington to nominate a leader of violent protests for peace when it suits them agenda the u.

Radio Television Social Media is is raising them to and always referring to them as prodemocracy protesters where theyre not at all this has nothing to do with democracy and they are determined to sabotage in every way that they can any normal relations between china with hong kong and it it is creating intentionally a great deal of confusion among young people who have been pulled into this against their own interests but we have sent request an alleged links that weve highlighted although so far we havent received a response.

Has an officially been supporting the islands military since the 1980 s. China seas taiwan is part of its territory china expert and lee says that beijing will point the finger at washington if tensions escalate. There is some unity in washington to go hard on china and some of these folks who are elected theyre basically elected with the same funding for the people who got people into the trumpet midst gratian and who fund the think tanks in washington and so its all basically representing the same elite interests china sees this as an aggressive move by the u. S. To try to provoke them into a war the chinese basically up and say that the u. S. Is going to be at fault here because theyre not being consistent and not honoring the promises that were made in previous administrations and so this big departure is going to be on the u. S.

Well we discussed situation further today that is that hes the editorial director at reactionary times he says the violent behavior has become acceptable among some parts of the left. Unfortunately the rhetoric from the liberal left has continued to get more and more violent this is becoming increasingly accepted by the left in the Mainstream Media continues to blast this message oh were seeing an increase in violent behavior from the left people complain about supposedly negative you know divisive rhetoric from President Trump but ive never seen a president from stage a mock assassination of any of his democratic opponent what happens is it has the potential to radicalize the weak minded you know todays staged assassinations become tomorrows assassination attempts youve been watching good to have you company this morning were back again with headlines and more stories at the top of the.
