Plus in the bundesliga dont receive a lifeline in a must win game under their new coach the team defeated mines to get their first win in nine games which means crisis is still far from over though there might be a light at the. And at the top. Oh im Terry Marchant good to have you with us democrat candidate doug jones has won a u. S. Senate seat in the deeply conservative state of alabama but his republican opponent roy moore is refusing to concede defeat Moores Campaign was overshadowed by allegations of Sexual Misconduct accusations that repelled some moderate republicans and kept them away from the voting booth the result deals a huge political blow to President Donald Trump. Of all the states in which the democratic fight should take shape alabama was an unlikely starting point the party has not won a senate seat here and a quarter of a century. We really have not just around the state of alabama though we have shown the country the way i share with. The celebrations here on much to the control vis a surrounding his opponent. In the day the republican crusader roy moore had hoped his horse named sassy would carry him to that. It was the final bet to cast him as a thought a bread conservative in a campaign marred by multiple allegations from women claiming he had molested them decades ago when they were teenagers even for high ranking republicans moores actions and policies well beyond the pale he believes homosexuality should be illegal and that muslims shouldnt seven congress. For donald trump the only thing that mattered was moores loyalty to his vision. The president has congratulate to doug jones on a hard fought victory but said votes cast for a third candidate harmed the right ten votes played a very big factor he tweeted bought a win is a win not so. He has refused to concede but the votes are still coming in and were looking at that but god bless you as you go all may give the safe journey and thank you for coming tonight we not over this going thanks in part by. But it is democrats who are smiling having narrowed the republicans majority in the senate to just one day says they say a sign of success is to come in crucial elections next year. Lets get some analysis now d. W. Correspondent carolina carolina chamorro joins us now from washington d. C. Carolyn of the Alabama Senate race had polarized the us political establishment how is the result going down in washington. Well it has been a very very tight race the first results were First Showing a three point advantage for republican roy moore this was before all the ballots had been counted thirty minutes later the outcome change after the ballots of all counties have been counted as the result you just mention it is clear now forty nine percent for democrat jones and forty eight dot four percent for republican roy moore this is a historic result in alabama alabama as a state that traditionally votes for the Republican Party and now after twenty five years it is the first time that alabama has elected a democrat to the senate so it is a big change in National Politics but also a clear signal against republican roy moore and therefore also against president on a trampoline dorst more until the very last minute double trouble campaign for roy moore whole big of a blow is this for the president and the republicans. Well it is a clear defeat for donald trump for the republicans their slight majority in the senate has been reduced now even more they have to go up from fifty two seats to fifty one seats in the senate this means that republicans only have one seats more than democrats in the upper house and we have to stress also that this is the second signal against the Current Administration after democrats swept the very latest later races a month ago this shows also that the democratic and could produce a sort of turning point maybe in the midterm elections next year that could maybe completely flip control of congress now the campaign was dominated by allegations of Sexual Misconduct by roy moore lets listen to what moore said about those allegations during the campaign they said these women. Had not come forward for nearly forty years. But they waited thirty days before this girl alexion to come forward if you dont believe in mark here. Dont go. Get those Sexual Misconduct allegations end up costing roy moore the election did his boaters stay home. Well the turnout of voters in alabama has been extraordinarily high at least this is what alabamas secretary of state said he said an estimated thirty three to thirty five percent of alabamas three dogs three million registered voters cast a ballot and this was higher than expected twenty five percent turnout African Americans voted in their majority for Democrat Doug Jones and yes maybe many whites of what was her state at home but also many of them decided to vote for democrat jones what can we expect from. The democrat who would this election. Well he is a democrat but not quite a liberal democrat he is against abortion and he also has a clear opinion about the Second Amendment here in the United States that means. In the sense of guns so. Donald trump said he is a puppet of Chuck Schumer and see pelosi the Democratic Leaders in congress but this is not the case he is a democrat but more from the conservative wing of the party. Theyll roy moore is the biggest backers in washington has been Donald Trumps former chief adviser steve bannon in an interview with. Xander phenomena bennett accused the Mainstream Media of pretending to report the truth while pushing a quote globalist agenda take a listen. The media is theyre just another Advocacy Group in fact fake news is the least bad thing call them i called the Opposition Party while im in leon and thats absolutely not true but information today is part of Political Warfare just because i mean what kind of answer is that im not a politician that means youre not the political process you and all the Mainstream Media are part of the Opposition Party you have an agenda you have a globalist agenda you try to ram down stories and try to ram down there is a chance that not down down down down you have to you know you tried it about it no no no no i say from day one breitbart leak we are strongly partisan ok were strongly partisan but we say up front were part of the News Organization ok it doesnt mean were not fair we think we treat people very fair but theres a definite angle of attack but we dont make any pretense like you and the rest of the Mainstream Media you make this pretense of this false objectivity its total nonsense every understands is total nonsense and youre getting out every day you know false subjectivity is total nonsense carolyn help us out here what does steve bannon mean when he calls the media aas the Opposition Party. Well in his opinion the Mainstream Media as he calls it acts against donald trump and his administration mccreadys izing him all the time i am in his opinion and in his opinion this is why Mainstream Media are spreading out fake news in order to take away support from donald trump and this respective see fantasy perspective actually appeals to us voters so many of them i just came back from filming a report about transformers and supporters and it was pretty clear to me that people here are fed up with the titians in general with with washington with the elites and of course also with the media they do thing that the Mainstream Media reports reports fake news and this is why many of them rely not only on Donald Trumps tweets but also on media like Breitbart News this is c fans news portal or even Donald Trumps new broadcasts or this online t. V. Channel where hes starter in law presents the news of every day in her words real news thats how she calls it well steve whose picture were just seeing there he is no longer working in the white house is trumps chief strategist but is he still a Political Force to be reckoned with in the u. S. When many u. S. Voters and Trump Supporters do reckon with a c. Fan they support him too and and therefore we as journalists would have to see him also of course as a an important figure in the Political Landscape in the United States a c. Fan is still working on his big project to change the Political Landscape in this country and for this he is fighting not only against the democrats but also against establishment of the Republican Party so he is definitely an important person in the Political Landscape in the United States and we see that also that way to debbie is currently in a shim or there in washington d. C. Thanks now to some of the other stories making news around the world today irans southeastern province of kerman has been hit by multiple strong earthquakes state media said at least eighteen people were injured and dozens about as damaged the first quake of magnitude five point nine struck on Tuesday Morning fifty six kilometers north of the provincial capital comma the United Nations Childrens Fund is drawing attention to a humanitarian crisis in the democratic republic of congo unicef says in the countrys central cousinly region at least four hundred thousand children under the age of five or severely malnourished and urgently in need abate more than a year of violence in the region has displaced more than one point four million people. Leaders from islamic countries are meeting in istanbul today to discuss u. S. President Donald Trumps recognition of jerusalem as the capital of israel on tuesday turkeys president warned the United States that it was a quote partner to bloodshed after trumps decision was followed by violence and said that turkey would never recognize a decision out of one says he hopes todays meeting will mobilize support in the muslim world for an independent palestinian state and called it a turning point on the issue. Well spring indeed of his story and journey hes standing by in. Good morning dorian what sort of turning point is president of the one talking about. What i think he is hoping that the outrage and anger generated over president trumps decision will bring the muslim world together to unite behind the palestinian cause put the palestinian cause back on the agenda in fact the King Abdullah of jordan when he was visiting ancora last week also made the same point that the president outrage and violence he said should remind everyone of the need for a just solution to the palestinian cause which includes jerusalem being their capital and one will hope that bringing together Muslim Leaders that they will galvanize efforts for all that come together to support that calls as you say Muslim Leaders are gathering there in istanbul youre at the conference or all major important muslim nations represented there. Well yes this is a big issue there are twenty two heads of state coming here including the iranian president and the head of the bangladesh among others but its very notable that there is a much lower parties lower profile participation of Key Countries like egypt saudi arabia there are reports that according to talk to me that they will be only represented on the foreign minister level and this just underlines that they are even though there does appear to be an agreement the president trying to move with an acceptable and there is opposition to it there is little unity among the the muslim world and in particular the arab world and in fact there are deep divisions between countries like iran and saudi arabia and in fact turkey is increasingly part of that division is viewed by country of relations between turkey and saudi arabia are very tall part of this growing divide within the region and the fact that there is only a low level of participation by countries including egypt as well underlines that how difficult it will be a challenge. The president want to bring all the countries together to make a strong statement our growth map is well one in five as well talking about theres a great deal of skepticism well he will be able to achieve that given the deep divisions that exist on the cover of a dence of the low profile representation of countries like egypt and saudi arabia dorrian thank you did obvious story in jones there in istanbul. Well the u. S. Decision to recognize roussillon as israels capital has sparked protests around the world and here in germany many were shocked after arab demonstrators burned israeli flags in front of the berlin berlins Brandenburg Gate the last weekend the gate often served as a backdrop for the nazis but is also a symbol of german reunification the government says it will not tolerate flag burning and the Jewish Community is calling for tougher laws. Im sorry. There were nude protests in berlin on tuesday many here cant understand why dont trump has chosen to recognize jerusalem as israels capital and the palestinians claim East Jerusalem as the capital of a future palestinian state and i wonder why theres been so much outrage at the burning of israeli flags. Went on my new germany its just about to fly a simple flag what about the people who are born in a refugee camp were born stateless what about them. Versus them and. The ones that is a finished the doesnt serve our cause and we are against antisemitism and we strongly condemn it we are also semites. Jews there was also the first day of hanukkah the jewish festival of lights. At the Brandenburg Gate a huge menorahs being installed. Rabbi yehuda says the holiday is being overshadowed by what he called the dramatic and he semitic scenes of the past weekend im given our current exactly here we witness a horrible and uncomfortable scene demonstrators chanted israel kills children and burned israeli flags we must not tolerate this. German law bans the destruction of flags serving as official symbols like in front of the embassies and government buildings. But there is no bend for example on protesters burning flags they bring with them. Germany Central Council of jews is demanding tougher laws against and he semitic demonstrations but some lawmakers a skeptical because its i dont think laws can solve conflicts whats unfolding here on the street is in fact a very real conflict that israels actions on the ground as well as its settlements policy exacerbate this conflict. Its not diminished isnt conflict on. Us as on. These are one off events but at the moment it doesnt look like thats the case and that can continue therefore well do Everything Possible to prevent it. Being. Despite being supportive of Citizens Rights to protest germany remains particularly vigilant when it comes to making sure that legitimate anti israeli protests dont spill over into anti semitism.
