Up to its past self korea wants to plan to compensate women forced into sexual slavery during world war 2 the demand thats reopened a long running diplomatic rift between the 2 nations. And a new plan to sleep a season begins fire music triumph yet again last season and tonight they face out of the lead starts of their bid for an 8th straight german time. Hello im terry martin welcome to the Program Israel has barred 2 u. S. Democratic congresswoman from entering the country after president tweeted that they should be banned congresswoman omar of minnesota emigrated to the u. S. With her family from somalia when she was a child and representative rushy to leave of michigan was born in america to palestinian parents have criticized israels treatment up the palestinians and called for a boycott of israeli products. Some have already noted the irony a month after u. S. President trump said congresswoman rashid had to leave should quote go back to where her family came from she cant believe took to twitter to protest israels decision to bar her and fellow congresswoman omar from visiting the west bank she posted a photo of her palestinian grandmother who lives there calling the decision a sign of weakness on the part of israel. The 2 freshman lawmakers the 1st muslim women in congress are outspoken critics of Benjamin Netanyahu is right wing government they support sanctions and an International Boycott against israel to end the occupation of the west bank where they had planned a trip netanyahu is announcement that the 2 would be denied entry came after trump urged him not to let them in the Prime Minister said the move was in line with israeli law. Theres no 101 there is one thing we are unable to accept by law israeli law prohibits the entry into israel of those who call for and work to impose boycotts on israel. Trump a plot of the decision he had earlier encouraged. The things that theyve said omar to leave what theyve said is it disgraceful so i cant imagine why israel would let them in. While trump claimed without further evidence that the 2 congresswoman hate jews many Jewish American politicians were quick to defend them including senator Bernie Sanders and the mayor of minneapolis omars hometown. As to ban from israel is a jewish man i totally disagree with that. I think its the wrong decision. I. Feel strongly that you know you can feel the jew and also say that some of the ways that the Israeli Government is able danger or wrong to lead said she would challenge the travel ban on to continue to fight back. And to ban the things provide access for meaning to me and my colleagues to come to israel and into the costume areas and to be able to listen to hear people israels decision could have unwanted political consequences especially within the Us Democratic party earlier this year Top Democrats had singled out representative omar saying statements she made on israel were antisemitic. But now the party has all but closed rings around the 2 muslim congresswoman. Lets cross over to jerusalem bring in our correspondent tanya kramer good to see tonya tell us why has israel decided to bar entry to these 2 us congressman. Why was quite an unusual step because preparations for that this is. Going and then this decision came on wednesday now both seen as you said in the report congresswoman are seen as vocal critics of israels policies in the palestinian territories and the occupied palestinian territories and also supporters of the could movement and this is what the interior Ministry Said also in its statement that was yesterday that because of the spike activities staff would be barred and that is supporters of course by the whole government and also Prime Minister netanyahu everybody you know issued a lengthy statement then telling why those 2 congressmen shouldnt be allowed into the country now is that i can do that because it has a man that its entry like 2 years ago and it allows israel to ban the entry of any foreigner allegedly calling a foe boy because. Of israel and this has happened to you know to other politicians before but not to members of congress ok what about President Trumps role in all of this because President Trump is also tweeted that he opposes the entry of these 2 congresswomen into israel and has told israel to keep them out is that having an influence on israels decision. Yeah thats certainly one reading of the situation could have us quite an on president to set off the events because once you have to know that a month ago the israeli ambassador to the United States one demo had actually said that the visit would go ahead and might not like the opinions of those 2 congresswomen but they would be allowed entry out of respect for congress and that israel would not bar any member of congress to to enter. And then this tweet came and then some reading it is well that this has influenced that decision of Prime Minister netanyahu was a very strong word just tweet that israel would look weak if they would let those 2 Congress Women enter and of course you dont have to forget i mean we are also in the middle of an Election Campaign is that would cater probably also to Prime Ministers netanyahu is a right wing bloc but there has been also a lot of criticism well this decision means for the bipartisan nature off this relationship between the 2 allies israel and the u. S. Israel receives strong support from the u. S. Congress is there any concern there that this move could jeopardize that support especially among democrats. Yeah definitely i mean israeli commentators quick to point out that this might not be in the long term this decision might not be in the long term interest off. The scene yesterday the immediate reactions also in social media especially among democratic. Lawmakers of the democratic camp but also by the for example pro is very group aipac who also criticized the move and there is concern here that disparity you know centered relationship thats very much sense its on President Trump and the israeli Prime Minister and he has sided with President Trump the floor its not really in the interest of israel and that it could have serious. Effects on this very special relationship between the u. S. Tanya thank you very much for your insights tanya kramer there in jerusalem. For all turf its chief minister has said a seized Iranian Oil Tanker can set sail as soon as its ready to roll to the Supreme Court had ordered the release of the grace one detained by britain last month that ruling came despite a last minute legal bid by the u. S. To keep the ship in detention the ship was suspected of taking iranian oil to syria in violation of e. U. And u. S. Sanctions brought his chief justice says iran has no guarantee the oil is not going to syria all owing to capture of the grace one iran seized a british flag tanker near the persian gulf reports suggest iran is now planning to release that ship. Of war now lets cross over to d ws teresa trawl for she joins us from quetta show on a rainy an island in the strait of hormuz so theresa iran is obviously eager to get its ship back from joe brawl to if it does will it then release that british flag tank. From what were hearing that is very likely to happen yes there british tanker has already been moved from the place where it was detained in the strait of hormuz a couple of weeks ago closer to the port and. Islamic revolutionary guards are controlling everything and thats a place we have foreign specifically us journalists cannot go to as we were told to not quote and danger proceedings so apparently theyre still preparing for an exchange but we have to keep in mind that the revolution in iran as a whole do not have a lot of trust in the United States or the United Kingdom so before the iranian vessel in gibraltar eyes not freed this peril here in the persian gulf will not be released either now the u. S. Is against your brawl to releasing the iranian tanker that it is has tried to block it with legal moves so far is iran concerned that the u. S. Could take further steps to prevent the ships return. Well at least nobody here would be surprised by that irans foreign minister zarif said washingtons 1st attempt to stop the release of the tanker was an attempt piracy move so he said washington was abusing the International Legal system to steal iranian property and that is if you sat by many iranians as well weve spoken to some people smile and they say they do not want a conflict to happen with other countries in their region and not elsewhere but that they are willing to step up and defend their own country if necessary so that is why everybody here in the persian gulf is monitoring very closely what is happening and. Ok were just talking about 2 ships here but theres of course a much bigger story going on the conflict between iran and the United States the u. S. Has been pursuing what it calls a a policy of maximum pressure against iran what effect is that having on the regime in tehran. Islamic leadership here in iran seems very unimpressed by that campaign but that itself is not very surprising because the Islamic Republic is all about resisting u. S. Pressure but really affected by it can pay now ordinary iranians because in the past 12 months prices for stock items like chicken of vegetables have gone up a lot for example a simple tomato is now 5 times more expensive than last year and the people most affected by that are of course ordinary iranians especially the poor ones who are already struggling to make ends meet before all of that happened so when the u. S. President now says his sanction and this policy as a whole are not targeting iranians but just the islamic leadership of the government of iran people here really have a hard time believing him to them that just sounds like simple mockery. Teresa thank you very much for bringing us up to date teresa tropper there on a rainy territory in the strait of hormuz. Youre watching the news still to come the new one a sleep Good Campaign starts tonight 10 client munich have looked shaky in the preseason find out why they have a real battle on their heads to secure a record 8 straight title. The captain of a Russian Airliner is being hailed as a hero after he landed his aircraft in a cornfield shortly after takeoff from moscow all 233 people on board survived the pilots action is being compared to the famous landing on the hudson river in new york 10 years ago in both incidents the planes hit a flock of birds. This is with a short journey ended in a cornfield in the mass just one kilometer from the runway the airbus a 321 was on route to simferopol in crimea. Smoke billows from one of the engines some passengers recalled the scene on their phones. While on this call out the names of their loved ones. Of us again try to get as far away as possible. Minutes before the plane took off from moscows zuckoff ski airports. Dots by possibly the moment when a flock of seagulls is sucked into an engine. Seconds later both of the planes engines fail. All civs they dont just after takeoff i heard a sound like you didnt do it but almost been to get over it there was a deathly silence on the plane everyone was just awaiting their fate. Passengers say they had no warning from the crew that the plane was making an emergency landing. The captain is being hailed as a hero. Mood now that we must pay tribute to the pilot because he landed the plane as smoothly as possible. It was dummy at u. C. Both who brought the airplane down safely the 41 year old captain is highly experienced and has logged over 3000. 00 flies out as. The kremlin says both yusupov and the copilot will receive top state awards for their achievements. Now to some of the other stories making headlines around the world today arjun times have taken to the streets of the capital what is ours to protest the continuing economic crisis a shock election result has wiped 25 percent off the value of the peso organizers set up a soup kitchen and draw attention to the squealers. Civic island leaders have failed to agree on tough new Climate Change commitments after 12 hours of talks on the polynesian island of tuvalu many leaders complained that all stray leo was to blame australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has long championed his countrys coal. Industry here is. That north korea has launched at least 2 projectiles from near the city of tongue shown into the east sea thats according to the south Korean Military its the 6th round of launches in recent weeks in protest of military drills between south korea and the u. S. Has rejected any further peace talks with seoul thought this weeks japan is marking a solemn anniversary 74 years since it surrendered at the end of world war 2. On thursday japan observed a minute of silence led by a newly crowned emperor norah he took. The anniversary is a time of reflection for japan which lost 3100000 people to the war or he too is japans 1st emperor born after the war he expressed his countrys remorse over its wartime actions. We here by reflect on our posture. And we feelings of deep remorse. We sincerely hope that the misery of the war should never be repeated then. I sincerely express condolences to those who perished in the war. You still know how they will know he must. Well number of those who perished were in former japanese colonies such as south korea that wartime past still stings for many survivors like south korean women forced to work as sex slaves for japanese troops south korea is demanding that japan apologize for this dark episode japan says it did so in 2015 but in south korea its still an emotive issue and with only around 20 comfort women left to live in the country a time for reconciliation is fast running out. They say is for the victims. Like lee young so. Over just a girl when she was forced to work as a sex slave in Japanese Military brothels. They saw more unveiling ceremony talked of an emotional day of commemoration im protest leader like many koreans once japan to feast up to its promise and so on the new day. Im in the morning i will never give in to the demise from japan. Ive been the month so i will fight until i get an apology. The awareness is uncool. It is not the money i want signs of i guess that its an appalling side they are. Elsewhere in seoul thousands to the issue to the door of the japanese embassy. To compensate investigate punish they chant the anger here reflects renewed hostilities between the 2 nations japan recently imposed trade barriers in addition over compensation awarded to forced wartime laborers only hardening their resolve. Reasonably weve been asking japan for an apology for a long time but theyre still not owning up to the past and instead of apologizing to the victims of forced labor theyre instead retaliating on to engaging in economic retaliation which makes me really angry. With distrust and animosity running so deep laying to rest the legacy of colonise nation may take many years yet. Well the long wait is finally over for fans of german football here and around the world in this stadium later this evening the new bonus league a season kicks off champions by munich begin their campaign against hausa berlin by and are aiming for a record 8 League Titles in a row this season but they will face stiff competition they only narrowly beat dortmund to the title last time around and dortmund have brought in some key new players including those who left by and returned to his former club. Sports is here to give us the lowdown on the new bonus League Season good to see you tom so by and what champions again last season 8 times in a row my goodness but did they show enough weaknesses to give other teams any chance this season i think in the yeah i mean they will be of course hoping that they can go their record in a row this season last year they finished very strong last campaign they did finish very strong off to a somewhat start to restart they recovered from a gnawing point deficit 100. To come back and of course win the league and thats not forget also the german losses and whether or not that was enough to give other teams hope i think definitely dont win of course with 9 points. Advantage of by munich in the league had it basically in their own hands and lucky said they have strengthened and while by munich have signed benjamin parvati. As they failed to land a star signings so i think thats a worry as was their super cup performance recently at the start of august against dortmund so with the season starting tonight by and on not really in their best of a shape. Bryans 1st test this season could have brought their 1st trophy instead to super cup against dortmund in early august only frustration the champions have failed to significantly strengthened their squad and they were exposed by their closest rivals without direct replacements for departed you are in robin and frankly the re a title defense will be anything but easy. The fact is that we definitely have to make another signing i said it last year we had to serious injuries with continental e. So and. They cost as a lot of potential we have to be prepared for that if we want to achieve our goals we need a good squad not just enough players but real top quality players. Because thats has received one new player in the past few days attacking midfielder even paris each has joined on loan from him to milan. But even he accepts that the squad as it is might need further reinforcements. Well at least 7. If you want to be only on the top of you also know that during the season there is always some interest that the story is over we need everybody parasites cant even play in buy and soap and i can buy lean he suspended after picking up too many yellow cards in the italian top fli
