International im sean thomas certainly glad to have you with us now we start with the latest news that the u. S. Has struck the tayyiba hezbollah facilities across iraq the pentagon says their statement says that the strikes were in response to the threat posed by iranian backed shia militia groups unverified reports say that an Iranian Revolutionary guard general was killed in the strike as well these are unverified pictures of the attacks aftermath some of them might be disturbing. Again were following the situation and we will keep you updated the pentagon is to hold a briefing on todays strike a little bit later of course well try to bring that to you as well. Just to remind you yesterday an attack on a u. S. Led coalition base near the iraqi capital baghdad killed 3 soldiers has praised the attack but has not yet taken responsibility for it. Now a judge has ordered u. S. Army whistleblower Chelsea Manning released from jail ruling her detention no longer serves any purpose this comes after she attempted suicide on wednesday. Mannings appearance before the grand jury is no longer needed in light of which her detention no longer serves any coercive purpose the court further finds that enforcement of the accrued conditional fines would not be punitive but rather necessary to the course of purpose of the courts civil contempt order. Manning is still recovering in the hospital it is unclear whether manning will be jailed again if she fails to pay the fine she has been in prison since may for refusing to testify against we you know weeks before a grand jury or to Saskia Taylor got more on the developments from our correspondent but ive got you. But it was allegedly a very very close run thing because the gods when they found her she was hanging by a sheet in her cell unresponsive unconscious and blue already blue they got their entire unfortunately the they took her down administer 1st aid she was still breathing they rushed her to the hospital d and then i think is now 5 there is no danger to her health shes shes responsive shes talking to her lawyers some are just talk us through whats happened whats not to this moment has sentence initially which is many years over a decade was commuted by barack obama said 7 years so Chelsea Manning was jailed back in 2010 for providing we can leaks for leaking to wiki leaks thousands hundreds of thousands of classified documents from the pentagon. Give us a bit of a box story i mean what has landed manning behind bars again well over the last she has been a seesaw for Chelsea Manning a very unpleasant one so last year she was ordered to testify before a grand jury a grand jury is a panel of citizens who have been called by the state to investigate whether a crime has been committed and more to do about it whether to prosecute or whether the let it go and the Court OrderedChelsea Manning to testify before this parable about her ties to Julian Assange and wiki leaks about the documents that she had handed over in 2010 something that she says she has already done so she said to the judge no i will do it this is you know this is the government abusing the law in order to go off the whistle blows to go off the journalist to muzzle them to shut them up which is something that Chelsea Manning doesnt want to do she further says that this is a she has already testified she has said what she had to say earlier on attempting to corus me with a grand jury subpoena is not going to work. I will not cooperate with this or any other grand jury the questions are the same questions that i was asked before the Court Martial in my. 78 years ago it theres nothing new theres nothing not asking anything new theres no new information that theyre trying to get from me in fact that the questions are very much the the same things that ive gone over the judge didnt like that at all so he ordered her to be indefinitely detained incarcerated behind bars until she talks she was led to for a few months then ordered back to prison until she talked furthermore 5 as well progressively larger fired every day at this point shes been fined a 1000. 00 for standing by her principles said. You talked there about how its been a kind of tough few years for iraq not probably an understatement i mean we know she spent such a long time in jail 7 years before then back again in march 29th i mean have human rights reacted to their son and what what has been the reaction of those theres been all sorts of reaction from from a. Variety of organizations from Rights Groups from journalists unions and. Many organizations have come out and said what is happening is simply unacceptable. The e. U. Has sharply criticized president trumps decision to suspend most air travel from europe for 30 days in response to the worsening Coronavirus Crisis the blocks leaders on thursday defended the measures they have taken to tackle the pandemic and stressed of the need for International Coordination poured in from berlin whose arteries peer over. But with the world split over the best way to try and deal with the coronavirus that continues to spread what were seeing is a spotter merging between your leadership and the u. S. President donald trump this is after the president announced a ban on travel for foreign nationals from within the zone in europe to the United States apparently in a move he made well without consulting his allies on this side of the atlantic the president though says it was necessary to keep new creations from entering her sures we will be suspending all travel from europe to the United States for the next 30 days the new rules will go into effect friday at midnight need to coronavirus is a Global Crisis not limited to any continent and it requires cooperation rather than unilateral action the European Union disapproves of the fact that the u. S. Decision to impose a travel ban was taken unilaterally and without consultation with donald trump to ban comes after the World Health Organization declared coronavirus to be a Global Pandemic but the more you look at it the more it seems well pretty arbitrary really those nations that involves of the 26 that make up the shingle and so it doesnt include the United Kingdom it doesnt include ireland theres absolutely nothing to stop somebody say flying from here where i am in berlin over to london and then on to the United States same somebody can fly from paris to dublin then on to the United States then when you look exactly who it involves it only involves foreign nationals so u. S. Citizens and those with permanent residence can still travel from these countries also those married to u. S. Citizens or permanent residents the parents or guardians of u. S. Citizens or permanent residents under the age of 21. 00 the same goes for siblings of those that fit that criteria plane crews all. Ship crews as well arriving in the us theyre not covered nor on the embers of foreign governments it does seem incredibly convoluted it does seem like its going to be a bit of a nightmare to enforce if its actually even enforceable bought the news that it was announced thats hit the european economy pretty hard weve seen the markets tumble with stocks fall to their lowest in the last 4 years but while e. U. Leaders are increasingly unhappy with the actions taken by the us president theres also infighting within the e. U. Over the best way to handle coronavirus and also how to handle those Member States hardest hit by this virus concern over the coronavirus is running at fever pitch in the year right now its now caught up in the coronavirus panic sweeping the major concepts and Sports Events could well be canceled in an effort to stop the spread of the corona virus so i think its a very its a business that productivity but also limiting travel tourism and large public event as new cases reported in europe a huge spike in cases like italy on the last sweeping quarantine order of the population italy could be justified in moaning a lack of unity from their neighbors earlier this week the italians pleaded with brussels for more help rome should not be left to handle this crisis alone this is a crisis that requires a global 1st and foremost a European Response we are thankful to the European Commission for its positive engagement but its time now for the e. U. To go beyond engagement and consultations with emergency actions that are quick concrete and effective while the European Commission announced a multibillion euro aid package for Member States to help them deal with the crisis there was no specific aid for italy announced leaving the hardest hit in europe to rely on the hardest hit in the world for the aid they see. Sorely need not forget that italy supported china during the most difficult times of fighting the potomac now we also want to stand by the italian people although china still has a large demand for medical supplies we will step up our efforts to export urgently needed materialis and equipment to italy literally told us of protective clothing facemasks globes and all important lifesaving ventilators from china are expected to be in italy by the weekend meanwhile the e. U. Nations cant decide what to do with italy with some fencing themselves off from that beleaguered neighbor if we focus what we dont want things to get out of proportion as you fly because it needs to be useful and because this is only the beginning of the epidemic and if we take disproportionate measures they will be unsustainable in the long run and theres counterproductive i sincerely believe that these are bad decisions european carbonation is much more efficient efforts that confinement postcodes are more efficient measures requiring patients to be responsible and stay home quarantine measures are much more efficient. And if youre expecting that powerhouse of european politics until a miracle to bring some calm to the Current Situation youd be disappointed the german chancellor is expecting things to get worse before they get better but a muslim 1st in the us if you will start we have to understand that the population have no need to the virus there is no vaccine so far not treatment experts say about 60 to 70 percent of people in germany are likely to be in fact it if the virus continues spreading. But of course more people will die here too perhaps recognising the disjointed response from the European Union the chancellor also called for solidarity and unity between the Member States but members were left only impressed i dont want to comment on the city. In germany although i believe that such statements rather cause panic in any case we have adopted strong measures for such worst Case Scenarios to be out of the question with the coronavirus in trenching itself in europe so it seems its deficient in how to tackle it peter all of the. Well as the Coronavirus Crisis deepens in italy over 15000 have now been diagnosed with covered 19 with the death toll from the virus over 1000 are to met an emergency room doctor to learn more about the difficulties facing Health Care Workers there. Are not just that the night was very exhausting just like all nights over the past 2 weeks around here we sold dozens and dozens of people of varying ages that arrived in our emergency room with corona virus like the ammonia. Ringback to it its clear that if the community doesnt follow the restrictions the numbers continue to rise at a certain point our ability to help people who reach its limit. Ringback approximately 40 patients that are waiting to be admitted will be the same problem which is coronavirus like. In an unprecedented move Britains Supreme Court has found that experimenting with explosives can be legal it is after a man was quick. Terror related charges 22 year old Chaz Copeland who is diagnosed with autism was arrested in 2018 after making homemade bombs and conducting experimental explosions in his backyard he was initially charged with 6 counts of possessing information likely to be useful for an act of terrorism copeland was earlier ahead of a 22 month prison sentence but has now been cleared of the more serious territory. As a matter of law personal experimentation and self medication are lawful objects we discussed of the ruling with david lowy former Police Officer and senior law researcher and human rights lawyer sure you can. Obviously every case is different and we have to look at the facts of each case and this case the explosive substance that this 22 year old at that time perhaps even younger had made in in the unit in the garden shed in his house was just less than 10 grams of that substance my main question is why would anyone want to have explosives in the 1st place you know i look at it from from the the aspect of terrorism this country the u. K. Faces a terrorist threat and 3 fronts theres a missed the extreme far right the neo nazis that are lessons to give given this defense of experimentation and and education but i think this over use and over Expansion Expansion of terror offenses i think this is a good at least a good 1st step to say that no not everything where you see explosives or where you see something we dont quite understand what that person is doing or what their motives are it doesnt mean that they should be treated as a terrorist suspect the fact is that you know terrorism legislation has to be why when youre investigating you want to prevent with the small you want to prevent an attack from happening just because someone has in their possession you know any amount of any explosive substance doesnt mean that they should be guilty of a criminal offense or a tariff fans because of his condition he might have had you know it does cause. A person to become antisocial perhaps he was withdrawn perhaps he was an introvert he was unable to join the army as he wanted to because of this condition you know it was just experimentation it was just learning as the Supreme Court said you know self learning i mean if anything perhaps its a benefit but i dont see any harm that came from it i have to disagree you know we were talking about an individual in a shed with explosives in he was also make initiators and detonators and i want to know why would anybody just want to have explosives on their own property theres no legitimate reason its like with firearms moby thought issues in the past weve introduced legislation to protect the use of firearms we know why he was doing what he was doing now obviously in another case where someones trying to hide it were not quite sure of someones motives then they would question and investigated in different way but the whole point is that it can be an innocent pursuit it can be an innocent hobby it can be just for self learning is that that is not impossible to me its the legal point of the fact that you have these explosives and ok that could be a defense but with the 2 dissenting judges you need a lawful purpose and thats what they said and i agree with the. Us a democratic president ial candidate Bernie Sanders says he will continue campaigning despite a fresh loss in the primaries to rival joe biden they go head to head in the next t. V. Debate on sunday donald trump must be defeated and i will do everything in my power to make that happens on sunday night in the 1st one on one debate of this campaign the American People will have the opportunity to see which candidate is best positioned to accomplish that goal. Sanders losses being partly blamed on his own target voters many of whom believe their voices are no longer being heard arties killam up and has come in terry. The last day of democratic primary voting did not go too well for Bernie Sanders and now many voices are calling for him to drop out of the race and clear the road for joe biden however sander says he is not willing to give up just yet now sanders says his campaign actually has the upper hand over his rival when it comes to the youth journalists behind your larger goal. Oh this is what. We need the generational. One or 2 in the future you need to. Preserve the future oh country now the polls confirm what Bernie Sanders says young people like him more than they like joe biden and one of the goals of the Bernie Sanders campaign is to get them more involved in the electoral process but its not as easy as it sounds how weve been as successful as i would hope in Brigham Young people and the answer is no but why young people aged 20 to 35 approximately adds up to roughly 60 samant 1000000 people if they all signed up to vote sanders would have quite the edge but they havent done that turnout among Younger Voters remains comparatively low some blame the procedure for registering to vote for the 1st time for students who are going to school in another state registering to vote can get quite complicated some said that the Electoral College and the Party Primary process is very confusing and complicated and the quality of education on civic matters is quite low we decided to talk to some younger people here in new york city and find out why the numbers of young people going out to vote is so low did you vote in the last election now do you plan to vote in the upcoming primary vote maybe. Navy Better Believe it why might you not vote. It just doesnt make sense that the publics opinion doesnt even matter when it comes to a president ial election now why do you think a lot of Young Americans dont vote. Because it doesnt make any sense so those are the most the defense of the. People sometimes the lines are really long but. Not as long as adults knew thats what younger people just either dont think its employ. Because there are so many people in voting or they just. Dont know actually i can tell you why i feel like a lot of them probably think that their vote doesnt make a difference so hes as i hear from a lot of my friends who can vote so thats probably the devil is what happened last election as well i dont think they feel that their voices heard as one of their reasons and i dont think that they really understand what a difference it makes in our democracy today are you going to vote for sanders or biden. Sanders like to keep that to myself i guess i like both of them id go so to. Buy that i think as i stand right now its leaning more toward sanders now the Sanders Campaign has been reaching out to Younger Voters with catchy slogans and internet memes some say this could hurt him with older voters who dont like the resentful towner radicalism coming from the Sanders Campaign on the other hand its the Younger Generation struggling with historic levels of debt and lack of health care who have the most to gain or lose you know there are so many factors involved with young voters that are unique to that demographic line is that often this may be their 1st time voting so registration and voter id laws that number of factors that can influence turnout such as the fact they might have classes. Voting days its own typically skewed to turnout for young voters to be lower in the United States you have to go through a few hoops to be able to vote. You know most people consider those hoops to be in place to depress turnout overall we have election days are working days so that means working class voters students who have classes to go to people who have mobility challenges to get to polling places maybe because of on places really far from their home all of those voters are going to turn out at a lower rate because physically voting is harder for that. Now while Bernie Sanders looks to keep himself in the race to take on donald trump in november supporters of one of his former rivals have been reflecting on the short lived run for their favored candidate they have gotten inventive with tattoos elizabeth warrens Campaign Slogan but the designs have been causing offense take a look. If youre thinking of getting the tattoo you know on or off your favorite politician please dont. Look like whatever my grandparents had concentration camps. And it just seems insane that they wouldnt think if it werent supporters branding themselves with. A crypto fascist imagery it was not the turn i expected but in retrospect the postmodern world system is collapsing so. Thanks to all who called me on this i didnt want to invoke for me client of the holocaust i apologize for missing the mark. Im sorry as well and will be making modifications i would recommend for sure are thinking of a similar to 2 please. So you can look at it from 2 perspectives the answer is 1st level no you shouldnt be you should not be spared because of big there. Its on the other hand we need to come to grips with the fact also that were in an age where the last of the survivors of beginning to die off and so on the west look at the perpetrators have also died and to a young person its very hard if they havent stone steeped in it to really understand the meaning of it and we need to understand that there have to accept the fact that some really dont get it at this point its an historical event its beginning to fade into historic memories and we need to find ways of making it real to these people so i dont think they can be totally forgiven on the other hand we need to keep in mind the fact that you know we do with a generation that is beginning to not to know what this was all a balance and we need to find the right the right balance but obviously. No one should be doing things like that either does for me ill be back in about 33 and a half minutes with another look snoozed with interest. We have to realize we are all living on a small fragile spaceship together and its really no different than a bunch of people in a harsh environment trying to rely on each other to survive we are interconnected on this planet we rely on each other everywhere around the world to survive as a species. Seems wrong. Just dont call. Me if you get to shape out this day become educated and in the game an equal betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart. Just to look for common ground. But. I miss almost no. No no. I mean you. And your you know enough for your. Time. With. People. Being. Disinvest in these i have. School fees to me. Needs. I give them a good the middest mean i was been welcome my goal was get ahead like i tried to the 5 am where youll. Be thank you ted. Thats a new word about a little i was not you not the old. You. Didnt know how much. You know why you have. A lot of guts to not. Let you know how you. Feel you know. Money wasnt. The best idea. Is that it. Was a metal yes that was. Just that there were no ones out to kill him off ones are not done one might have been a top the definitions it up
