Why youre watching on C International im resigned i dont want to welcome to the program. The u. S. Is sending extra troops and Defense Systems to saudi arabia the u. A. E. According to the pentagon the move is a response to a rainy and aggression. The president has approved the deployment of u. S. Forces which will be defensive in nature and primarily focused on air and Missile Defense we will also work to accelerate the delivery of military equipment to the kingdom of saudi arabia and the u. A. E. To enhance their ability to defend themselves. This comes after washington accused iran of bombing Saudi Oil Infrastructure last weekend and thats despite the drone missile attacks being claimed by the rebels in yemen on friday saudi forces launched several airstrikes near the u. Many port city of her Data CoalitionSpokesman Says and said the goal was to prevent toothy rebels from launching remote controlled assaults on shipping in the red sea and in the past hour the Iranian Foreign minister cowens it on those saudi strikes saying theyre essentially an admission that the who thier bills were behind the oil refinery bombings says the saudi regime has blamed iran but useless as that is for the attacks on its all facilities curious that they retaliated against her daughter in yemen today breaking u. N. Cease fire it is clear that even the saudis themselves dont believe in the fiction of iranian involvement or political analyst calling cavill gave us his views on the latest escalation. The thinking behind this your 1st deployment is ms rose is that the u. S. Is trying to protect what he considers to be their own or what its considering to be their strategic lifeline so by sending more troops because we sent 500 troops back in july but i read this Troop Deployment of the us is very concerned about the security of Saudi Arabian oil definitely iran will fill in this for a thorough turkey for iran to agree to some separate negotiation based upon intimidation and bullying by the United States is illogical and those who follow International Relations know that its not going to happen so truong. And he can but its not going to blow the iranian house down well earlier donald trump slapped sanctions on Irans Central Bank off accusing the country of carrying out those trying to missile strikes on the saudi or fineries a week. These are the highest sanctions ever imposed on a country never done it to this level and its too bad whats happening with the rand its going to hell the trump is calling it the highest level of sanctions ever imposed against the Islamic Republic of iran now the sanctions are being imposed in response to the recent attack against and aramco oil facility saudi arabia says that iran is to blame for the attack now iran vehemently denies that they are responsible says that they did not carry out this attack and this is a deception from saudi arabia interestingly who is the forces in yemen have claimed responsibility for the attack but saudi arabia says it doubts that the who the forces have the capability of carrying out such a strike now while saudi arabia maintains they are sure that it is iran was responsible on thursday we heard from the pentagon and they said they are still investigating and havent come to solid conclusions let yet this is the u. S. Department of defense our position on this has been were going to work through with the saudis as they make their assessment of what took place so were going to work with them but were going to allow the saudis to make the declarations on where they believe the attacks came from and the ultimate responsibility unlike the pentagon mike pompei o who is on a regional visit to saudi arabia and the United Arab Emirates said he is sure iran was responsible the secretary could gather any new evidence that shows who is behind the attacks and do you think it is slam dunk case to bring to the u. N. Next week. I think its abundantly clear and there is an enormous consensus in the region that we know precisely who conducted these attacks was iran i didnt hear anybody in the region who doubted that for a single mom so it seems there is no hard evidence and rather than waiting for the u. N. Team to come to a conclusion after investigating it seem. The United States has responded by taking these actions against iran in imposing these new sanctions despite the fact that no hard evidence seems to be presented and that the u. N. Team has not concluded its investigation and has not reached any conclusions about who is responsible now its also important to point out that iran has reacted saying that it will offer a response to the u. S. Plots. And other Headline News facebook c. E. O. Mark zuckerberg has met with President Donald Trump this initial media platforms chief is looking to defend his company amid mounting criticism over privacy issues and Data Protection in a recent legal case of facebook claimed it is a publisher and is therefore allowed to ban who it wants but potentially that would also make it liable for what goes out on its platform responsibility its previously tried to doj as it explains. So what have we got here. Thats better. Plaintive ultra right web activist laura luma who was taken off pretty much all major Online Platforms defendant facebook one of the giants which kicked her out we carefully flicked through these court papers which the defendant filed could fly and bury the lawsuit and heres what really caught the eye. To the extent miss lewis claimed targets facebooks decision to deactivate her accounts it is also deficient on the well established law need to facebook nor any of the publish it can be liable for failing to publish someone elses message 1st amendment provides absolute protection for such decisions what was it again your facebook nor any other publisher protection by the 1st amendment so in this particular case the lawyers of sucking co are happy to legally refer to their social network as publisher digging a bit deeper will reveal facebook has done that in the past as well when last year an app startup was crossing swords with facebook in court this is what came from the network spent the top discretion is a 3 speed you write to respect to what technological means is used so is it just me or somethings wrong with how the platform we use every day identifies itself because when facebook bosses take questions in other places it seems they always try to distance themselves from the notion publisher which are you are you a tech company or are you the Worlds Largest publisher because i think that goes to a really important question on what form of regulation or Government Action if any we would take. Senator this is. A really big question i view us as a tech company because the primary thing that we do is build technology and products are you responsible for your content which make exactly on of a publisher. Well i agree that were responsible for the content but we dont produce the content and thats been the message for quite a while. We are a tech company not a media company. I do think we have to be the publisher and we definitely dont want to be the arbiter of the truth now just imagine what kind of legal trouble the tech giant may put itself in if it becomes universally recognized the company Mr Zuckerberg is running is a publisher not just a tech platform are they really ready to be responsible for anything disturbing or outright criminal that gets posted under the blue logo the examples have been out there in abundance. The way or what have simply someone decides to lawyer and bully me with all kinds of offensive stuff right on facebook should i then also follow defamation suit against the network because they as a publisher alloted its well known you can have a cake and eat it at the same time will probably lots your last name is sucker berg but we have all facebook to comment on the story and well of course bring you any response we get legal and media unless leinil gave us his view. What is facebook now when Mark Zuckerberg spoke before congress he said were just a tech company i just make the platform available for people to say what they want to i have not publishing i dont put out of pinions im just like a billboard in cats the way people get around the idea of of perhaps allowing defamatory or libelous statements and the like now theyre saying were publishers we have the right to have anybody on there we want well if youre a publisher under defamation law libel law you can be held accountable and liable for the longest Time Facebook push trying to have it both ways if i want to t. V. Station and i Say Something defamatory about you organization the t. V. Station the magazine theyre liable to because they broadcast it they put this libelous statement out so whats it going to be facebook do you want the liability that comes with being a publisher or do you want to just merely be a tech platform and if you want to be just a tech platform here have to make up your mind because you cant limit speech you cant act like a publisher unless you are a publisher. Now to central russia where Major International military acts signed center 2900. 00 is in full swing in addition to the hosts nations like china and india are also taking pause the drill aims to take cooperation between the countries to a new level in the face of eisel like tariff rights among the spectators is flags of a putin as well as watching them in a vis the russian president s been meeting with his current his counterpart.
