The way the newsprint live on air in streaming online through Facebook Live in an aljazeera dot com so british Prime Minister treason may is in a spat with u. S. President donald trump she told him that she is fully committed to fighting extremism may was responding to a trump tweet telling her to focus on destructive radical islamic terrorism back and forth began when make and then trying to read tweeting unverified video posted by. British far right group and the footage purportedly shows muslims committing hate crimes well his trumps response to mays condemnation there is a way he says dont focus on made focus on the destructive radical islamic terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom we are doing fine lets hear now from our correspondent on a b phillips. On a tour of the middle east forging a post brecks it role for britain in the world this is not what the Prime Minister wanted to be talking about the fact that we Work Together does not mean that were afraid to say when we think the United States got it wrong and to be very clear with them and im very clear that retreating from britain first was the wrong thing to do. Back home in london the government argues that britains ties with America Military cultural diplomatic make the special relationship and this will endure long after the current president has gone and the Prime Minister will always have regular calls with the president and she has been explicit in criticizing this tweet and i know that she will always make sure that she calls it out where she sees it and that is what shes done here. But a tweet from another minister who is a muslim made it clear the president had hit a raw nerve. Donald trump has upset a lot of people here in westminster in fearing he still invited to london on a state visit that would involve the queen in practice its very hard to see that visit happening any time soon the president has provided a huge publicity boost to a fringe far right Movement Britain first which has never come remotely close to success in any form of election here in the u. K. Britain first wants to end immigration and ban islam in the u. K. And the fascist groups believe it has about one thousand members. Its deputy leader jade a friend whose tweets were retreated by the president is facing charges of using threatening and abusive language shes thanked the president for retreating her messages to his more than forty three million followers saying god bless you trump God Bless America well as we know it to our correspondent dan rivers is right here standing by live. This is caused a lot of outrage. That there are suggestions that people see the bigger picture. Thats what the British Government is saying yes and thats what they would like their own unhappy members of parliament and the opposition parties to bear in mind theyre saying look this special relationship goes back seventy years it is so important for the security of our country home secretary speaking in parliament who you saw in my report saying she sees the importance of shared intelligence every day coming across her desk and she knows that it saves lives and shes asking people to bear that in mind that at the same time the British Government of course is walking a delicate line they dont want to appear unprincipled they are concerned about the cohesion of society here in the United Kingdom and what to reason may was arguing in amman in jordan earlier today is that if she sees a threat to that cohesion be it from groups who say that theyre acting in the name of islam or be it from groups who say that theyre acting in the name of some far right ideology she will call them out consistently. British muslims are peaceful a law abiding people who have themselves been the subject of acts and the victims of acts of terror by the far right there are those who conduct acts of terror in the name of islam but it is not in the name of islam and as Prime Minister i am very clear about the priority that i give to dealing with the challenge of the threat of terrorism and thats the dealing with the threat of terrorism and extremism from whatever source they can but i was wondering if ever a u. S. President has been so heartily condemned in British Parliament before. I mean you know we keep on using this word unprecedented when it comes to Donald Trumps president see the tweets the diplomacy the lack of diplomacy that comes with it but this is extraordinary territory and it puts the British Government in such an awkward situation dont forget the big picture terrorism a heading a minority Government Authority badly undermined by a disastrous election performance this year the problems of brecks it ahead and britains position in the world in once its parted ways with the European Union that reliance on the partnership with the United States more important than ever and a great deal of domestic criticism over the fact that terrorism may appeared even at the time to be so hasty so determined to be the first foreign leader to get into the white house in january once donald trump had taken over and that invitation that she gave then for a state visit for donald trump to come back here to london while a state visit as viewers will recall that is the highest accolade that britain can offer its full bells and whistles carriage and the queen dragged into it and all and the idea of donald trump coming to london you would have to assume with protests on the streets in that context is extremely embarrassing now for the Prime Minister obama has a lot of outrage online theres actually a hashtag going on right now. Why brits dont want to trump so a lot of outrage going on there all right but we will leave it there for the moment were going to continue with this we can speak to todd greene whos professor of religion at Luther College and author of the fear of islam an introduction to islamophobia in the west hes also a former state Department Advisor on islam a phobia in europe joining us live via skype. So the president says dont focus on me focus on destructive radical terrorism taking place in the u. K. In the president s mind it doesnt matter how the message gets across as long as it hits his target and in a sense he has a point because britain does have a problem doesnt it. Well the problem that the president has of course is that she uses that phrase radical islamic terrorism and as a means of political expediency Nothing Happened yesterday that he was actually responding to in a similar to the incident that took place back in february at a political rally when he was complaining about something that happened that suites were stunned to find out that something had happened in their country and that nothing that so esau just simply was not particularly once again to put the phrase out there to tweet some extremist propaganda that is meant to draw some sort of organic fleet between islam and violence and islam in terrorism so irrespective of what problems britain does or doesnt happen it comes to violent extremism thats not what yesterdays tweet was about and thats not what yesterdays roll with Prime Minister mate was about right but as i say were going to a lot of comments especially facebook im done founded said stacy every day that he is still in office enough is enough of the problem because the thoughts of lots of people around the world and let me just bring up this this graphic is a graph which shows that five of the ten largest u. S. Cities for a rise in hate crime in two thousand and sixteen this also this is the center for the study of hate and extremism a kind of what is that university twenty four percent in new york city fifteen percent of the fans and fifty percent in philadelphia hate crime to chicago or twenty percent two thousand and six thing do you see a correlation between those figures back in the United States and President Trump rais in two thousand and sixteen. Absolutely every since President Trump is came onto the political scene in a significant way when he announced his presidency in two thousand. We have seen creeping up increasingly rise and not only antimissile rhetoric but antimissile crimes and theres definitely a correlation in the past two years according to f. B. I. Day. Antimasonic crime is pretty much doubled in just in two years right and whats one the factors that we have to Pay Attention to that one as factors as donald trump by most measures islamophobia in the United States has been again getting worse and hate crimes is simply one of those metrics that we have to take this seriously and we have to take this tweet from yesterday from britain first as a continuation of a presidency and a man hes trying not only to incite anxiety and hatred for listeners but my interpretation that tweet yesterday that is just like violence against mr wright what i would say is we were talking about a spat between the u. S. President the british leader lets look at some figures now from the u. K. Government which demonstrate that there were more than eighty thousand hate crimes recorded by police in england and wales between the year between two thousand eight hundred two thousand and seventy and that is an increase of twenty nine percent compared to the Previous Year and nearly eighty percent of high crimes in two thousand and sixteen to two thousand and seven thing related to rights so dont trump giving oxygen to people like britain for us is not at all helpful to the British Government to efforts to fight this that shes made it is a question now i just i would say that donald trump giving oxygen to groups like britain first who posted the videos in the first place is not helpful to the British Governments efforts to fight hate crimes within the country. No thats absolutely right this is giving oxygen to the extremist groups in britain first it is only extreme of extremism to be quite honest there are even other extremist groups that think britain for us is extreme so he has amplified a group thats so purpose is to sow division and hatred amounts the british people and maybe most europeans as a whole it comes to the place of muslim communities and in europe and in the west period so donald trump is definitely on the wrong side of history and this is what hes doing is frankly immoral and repugnant and deserves to be condemned in those strong and theres no Uncertain Terms and in fact when she was home secretary theresa may band a couple extremists and of some extremists from the United States from entering the u. K. Speaking specifically of Robert Spencer and in ten Million Dollars so talking about an upcoming visit to the u. K. From president from hes engaged in very similar rhetoric that other extremists have engaged and up the written has banned from their country so it does raise interesting questions for britain i think in this particular political context means that there are cultural and political moment. About whether or not donald trump really is a friend of britain and and therefore what kind of larger problems as well as for us britain relations are taught pretty straight that twittering speaking to us that thanks very much indeed is a couple of a couple more Facebook Comments before we move on to say he should focus on white gunman in it who are indeed terrorists in his country he should know his boundaries before promoting bigotry around the world and its like the alternative view from jail who says this is on twitter at three that may have failed many things to be focused on and she is screaming about a retreat because the nazis in the media are right to slightly different point of view right that ok lets just to wrap this segment up we can bring up a page which will show the trump made a story of. Its in the news section of our website and if you go down that page you can see a section there theres a tab there that says islamophobia if you press on but youll get everything all the relevant stories that weve been covering on islamophobia twenty years of islamophobia in britain hate crimes rising United States how big islamophobia in poland lots of Opinion Pieces are so the United States is calling for more sanctions and the complete isolation of north korea after another Ballistic Missile test United Nations Security Council has held an emergency meeting following its launch north korea says the test proves it has the capability to hit United States mainland if you know about reports from seoul. Following the latest in a series of Ballistic Missile launches north korea says its rocket weaponry System Development is complete and its finally a Nuclear State the day after firing what the north says is its most advanced intercontinental Ballistic Missile yet state t. V. Showed leader kim jong un overseeing the night time test the u. S. President again called kim little rocket men and added a new unflattering description. Little rocket man rocket fuel for the american because. He is a sick puppy for the ninth time this year the United Nations Security Council discussed yet another crisis centered on north korea this test is another confirmation that the north korean threat has changed dramatically in a few months both in scope and scale the threat us shifted from being regional to global. And from the u. S. Ambassador a direct plea to china to exert greater economic pressure on its ally and neighbor we need china to do more president called chinese president xi this morning and told him that we have come to the point that china must cut off the oil from north korea that would be a pivotal step in the worlds effort to stop this International Pariah but no such pledge from china instead it called again on the u. S. To explore a freeze for freeze scenario in which north korea would slow its Missile Program if the u. S. And south korea lowered their military posture on the peninsula this position supported by russia in the booklet with what we proposed a solution based along the principle of suspension for suspension which in visions of d. P. R. K. Stopping missile tests while at the same time the u. S. And south korea decreasing the scale of their military exercises this in turn will pave the way for the principles of peaceful coexistence and peaceful discussions between washington and pyongyang. But this has been repeatedly and vehemently ruled out by the u. S. Another round of joint exercises between the u. S. And south Korean Military forces are due to start here next week north korea has said the drills are a rehearsal for war at the United Nations americas ambassador has said the u. S. Doesnt seek war but if it does start north koreas leaders would be in her words utterly destroyed Kathy Novak Al Jazeera song well tell you what heres a good way to get a grip on the career as a great explainer on aljazeera dot com all you need to know explained in graphics which is what we like going back in history to the formation of north and south career in one hundred forty eight you can scroll down to learn about some key figures or look at some rather troubling infant mortality rates and more about the Ballistic Missile capability there is zero dot com of course now we want to know your thoughts rig
