Own staffs all about free speech being open to debate and discussion. By their welcome to weekend world updates from the r. T. International in moscow my names colleen bray 1st for you this saturday then the u. S. Media is already pointing fingers east this time going after the democrats front runner for the 2020 president ial election the Washington Post claimed through unnamed sources without evidence that Bernie Sanders is receiving russian help for his campaign and that hes been informed of it it was not clear what role theyre going to play we were told that russia may be other countries are going to get involved in this campaign and look heres the message to russia stay out of american elections feel the burn. Well that standoff between sanders and bloomberg is apparently creating yet more turbulence in the blue camp well many have democrats and Many Democrats who have been left concerned that donald trump will walk over any democrat nomination in november now the New York Times claims that the president is also the benefactor of alleged russian help but its a case is it a case of deja vu for donald trump who said he isnt buying into it. After 3 years of ridiculous which chanced partisan democrat to say i see these phoneys these the do nothing democrats 3 they said that bush wants to be sure that trump gets elected here we go. Here we go again recruit you. Commercially new. Books will bring you to abusing include. Me. Creech you sure. Thats good tell you now look whether it really is a case of here we go again. Die every i know i can be a bit of a warrior you know better than anyone but this time i really think we might have a serious. Situation on our hands it is the conclusion of multiple Us Intelligence agencies that the Russian Federation is once again trying to interfere in our 2020 alexion our president ial election again to try to elect donald trump the russians off to american democracy again and theres just so much evidence to back it up this time in a closed meeting undisclosed intelligence officials told congress that moscow wants to keep orange one in the white house for another flu yes and 5 unnamed people who apparently are in the loop told us so its a sure thing i turned on the t. V. And everyones quoting it a bombshell revelation just makes me panic more than americas democracy once again under attack by a foreign adversary new revelations about russian efforts to interfere in the 2020 election with the hope of getting the president president through a real look and also to make americans doubt the integrity of the election process this is not a 4 year ago flashback folks this is 2020 and the media would so panic would jump on the bandwagon just to boost their ratings that would be unconscionable wouldnt it i know youll say im im spiraling but can you see how burn up proof this latest report is i mean i agree i did read the article which published the info for us and there isnt a single concrete fact a piece of evidence provided but they promise it will all come to light soon both republicans and democrats the intelligence agencies to hand over the underlying material that prompted the conclusion the rush is again favoring mr trump selection how soon the House Committee might get that information is not clear and if that wasnt convincing enough trump thought the director of National Intelligence and replaced him with a man who supports him cant be a coincidence can it i mean thats basically trump admitting that hes a criminal stooge and the president of the United States is now helping the president of russia help the president of the united. Just to get reelected now i dont want to exaggerate or anything but this is a National Emergency we are now in a full blown National Security crisis by trying to prevent the flow of intelligence to Congress Trump is abetting a russian covert operation to keep him in office for moscows interests not americas and politicians are panicking to it so seriously even tweeted about it point hillarys also chimed in still a bit saw over the whole 2016th test i suppose putin spotted at it again and taken russian help for himself who knows he can win without it and we cant let it happen i mean to someone fat the democrats are just being unlucky the mourner report was a boston pietschmann fell flat on its face but still how could anyone pick trump over that and just tick inspiring democrat candidates on offer take joe biden for example sure hes got a on approach but hes clearly a good parent and thats got to count for something right then does Michael Bloomberg sure he made a few crude comments apparently about women back in the eightys but these were different times now hes just a good old 2 clean billionaire and Bernie Sanders well good old bunny mo was giving his honest opinion when he allegedly said a woman could become a president no no the more i think about it the clearer it is a trump 2020 victory could only have the kremlins fingerprints all over it. Diary what a disaster there is no truth to this theres not one shred of evidence and this is pretty pathetic that they have to try to restart this fake witch hunt yet again what is happening to President Trump right now is that hes at an all time popularity the democrats see that now theyre stuck with a socialist obviously and in burnie and the democrats are desperate so theyre trying to dredge up the old story that in this. So fake witch hunt and the russia story that didnt work the 1st time its not going to work this time and for them to go back and pursue it only tells me that they are scraping the bottom of a very empty barrel and they have nothing else to run on. Getting politicians in germany of lashed out of the anti immigration alternative for Germany Party in the wake of wednesdays racially motivated Mass Shootings in 2 bars and how now in which 9 were killed and lawmakers argue that the f. B. I. Has helped create an atmosphere of hatred but in the 1st glance it looks like it was a lone wolf whats happening when one man carried it out but there were those who had provided him with ammunition and the 7 minutes and. Germany struggles to come to terms with the events of this week tried to slayings in hull now weve seen politicians from the Christian Democratic Union the social democrats they are part of the Ruling Coalition as well as the left party and the greens as well coming out and accusing alternative media day of funding the flames of far right extremism in the country of course theres a direct connection between the growing strength of the a. F. D. And the increase in right wing violence citizens of foreign descent are being denied their Human Dignity its so dangerous because it brings someone to a point where they commit a crime here we have a fatal disinhibition at work and the a. F. D. Bear responsibility for that too 9 people were killed this week 2 shooting incidents at 2 separate she should bars in the city of how now all of those that were killed were from an immigrant background most of them were young people as well we hope from one eyewitness who describe for us the scenes of that night. The man came in and started shooting at a kiosk then he came to us he shot the 1st person in the head then shot of the 2nd person well drop down to the ground i pretended to be dead we all pretended to be dead we all fell down and he hit the shooter had emptied his magazine and by then and just run away. From my eyes i was ok i was still alive but i just didnt want to believe it was real i asked unit everything was ok he groaned he got me he got me there was a hole in his neck i shouted the other guy to ask if he was ok he hasnt seen a bullet in the shoulder yet he didnt see the blood as he was wearing a coat he said jamiroquai i stood up and saw idris lying in his brother not. The others were lying there too so i went out and. The people in there were all that i didnt know what to do i just couldnt believe it was happening or police have confirmed that the main suspect had killed himself his body was found alongside but of the 72 year old mother the 42 year old owned 2 weapons legally the handgun that he used to carry out the attack had been modified to allow it to release bullets quicker is that alongside calls for tighter security and more surveillance of far right to vittie in germany there are also calls for tougher gun laws in the country when i have the Spokes Person claims that the german establishment is desperately trying to link the atrocity to his Party Without evidence of a link. The killer was d a paranoid he was sued because a friend nick and the police said it very soon on twitter. This guy had no connection to any any Political Group to any right extremist to any right wing groups and what as terrible as the situation that the all Political Parties are trying to stick it somehow to the a. F. P. This is the only way how can they manage to fight against us because they have no real political arguments and politan the political discussion so therefore they are always just trying to push us into a right to in corner sort of people who are afraid even to talk to ours to listen to our political arguments we are we are living in a. Very heavy political oppression in my mind we are not free. To express what we want our people are paramount and lee under attack off the left extremist and. You know what what happened now is that that that we are putting into a corner where we dont belong. And article in a leading us newspaper written by a taliban deputy leader is not going down well in afghanistan with official strongly criticizing the New York Times for publishing it. It is said that the New York Times has given the platform to an individual who is on a designated terrorist list he and his network are behind ruthless attacks against some foreigners the how can he and the taliban are responsible for the deaths of dozens of american soldiers and atrocities against afghan civilians the New York Times should be ashamed of itself for enabling this blatant propaganda from a designated global terrorists all in the name of diverse reviews sarojini carneys and tourist war crime suspects being investigated by the International Criminal court why does the New York Times give him op ed space. The author is among the worlds most wanted men in the f. B. I. Office 5000000. 00 for any information that could lead to his arrest somebody whos a designated terrorist in the United States is described by the agencys website as armed and dangerous after the backlash the New York Times defended its decision to publish the article it claims its essential to represent all viewpoints on the conflict especially to highlight the progress being made in peace talks weve discussed with everyone should have a voice on alt. I think the Editorial Team of the New York Times or to think very carefully about the decision i think they should think about whether they would publish an article for example by a far right terrorists and question whether or not they would apply their principles universally but nonetheless i think its a defensible decision its all about free speech being open to debate and discussion we know that our thought is of negotiations and discussions with groups in Northern Ireland things can change but youve got to be open and youve got to be able to listen to the discourse everything of course were absolute freedom of speech but i think the decision to publish this is an op ed perhaps cannot be understated you know the New York Times is arguably one of the most woke papers in the world and i think there is something extraordinary about the decision to publish this almost without question a piece which is largely without much journalistic mary i would say you know the piece itself is basically propaganda for the taliban sometimes the dialogue has to be opened in some direction and this may just be that. Which may be out the norm but it may just be a route that theyre looking at we have no idea whether this represents an accurate portrayal and in fact it could do more damage to the negotiations long term if you know why is it that they are so willing to publish the leader of and these islamic terror organizations so openly as though they were right for their own staff this is really a no platform situation with them if you keep no platform and then people get the wrong view of them soon as you open it up debate to find out how they are sure that in the eyes of the public so yes lets freedom of speech let it all be out there lets debate it. And then move forward you know if you dont like the debate then go listen to some of the news. A longstanding tradition is no longer to everyones taste in the german city of cologne a special festival cake on sale in one of the citys bakeries debate on why some see it as pandering to racist stereotypes known as chocolate kisses the treats have overly large lips and according to some are offensive to black people. I just received a photo from a cafe in cologne from a good friend the white chocolates are just as bad they are supposed to look like north africans dear cafe consistory from your bakery disgusts me the point is that the chocolate covered marshmallows i made to show racist stereotypes was secret but people in color we spoke to so have an appetite for their controversial confectionery. No i do not think its racist its a tradition that does not refer to anyone in particular so i think its all right senate veitch does russia says its always been this way i see nothing racist about it and was all know how is it racist it looks nice. Its simply the color of chocolate i wouldnt think of turning thing negative of kind of fall no way its racist i think its nice and theres no need to view it this way is a tradition which should be preserved by behold it has been a smith a long talk to me black and white shots that have nothing to do with racism something this is rather a matter of taste is this they taste different of theirs. Without the International Still ahead this saturday with Julian Assange his extradition hearing starting this coming monday we report on support protests planned in london this weekend. Is your media a reflection of reality. In a world transformed. What will make you feel safe. Isolation community. Are you going the right way or are you being led. By. What is true. Is faith. In the world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the depths. Or a maybe in the shallows. This whole business about blaming russia and america is getting really pathetic because heres a guy whos effectively trying to dehumanizing a group of people slavic people of the stakes this is remarkably ironic coming from white flight. Welcome back we need founder Julian Assange is set to begin his u. S. Extradition hearing in a london court on monday his supporters have planned protests over the weekend with veteran british rocker roger waters heading the rally and soldiers facing charges of hacking the Us Government computer and leaking classified documents back in 2010 he spent 7 years in londons Ecuadorian Embassy before being removed by police we spoke to the former pink floyd front man about the importance of saturdays protest. Committed no crime apart from a minor by a with it fridge when he did it its absolutely clear now that he didnt rape anyone and stucco that was a poor thing to try and get it he was so right when he said he was frightened of going to suite because they would actually die its nice to see exactly what they would have done this is being blown out completely by whats happening now here in the United Kingdom where the u. K. Government have decided to feed him to the wolves. Theyve almost killed him in belmarsh hes really sick if you read Craig Murrays description of him in the in the last hearing before that awful matches straight he its really really moving craigs a friend of his and hes in a chilling could you could hardly remember a zone name. He maybe that got a drugged a law which they probably have probably gotten on all kinds of you know trial lawyers to spoil but now hes been in prison for 7 years now in the dorian embassy and now in the spice security place at boma its disgusting he hasnt committed a crime. Julian assange should america getting a fair trial 00 charles theyre breaking the law to try and get him there that would there is an extradition treaty between the u. K. And the United States which has a number of articles of the forethought to koloff ways that no extradition proceedings should even taught if there is a political motivation to it this is a political course it is isnt 100 percent political so a legal proceeding its all its a job and its disgusting and and and for english prudence to fail an ordinary journalist doing his job properly like best. Makes me ashamed to being. The case is crucial only if you believe in the rule of law and freedom of speech and the end if you believe that the press and journalists have a responsibility to inform the public if they kill a song its going to be at the back of everybody elses oh my god they killed him theyre going to kill me too if i step out of line. 30 or 30 so that nobody will report on anything that could be so power. For human Rights Groups are demanding that a british universities suspend the program it runs with bahrains Royal Academy of policing they allege the course is taking place at the socalled torture hub where Political Prisoners reportedly face electrocution right beatings the university of how does field runs a masters course in security science it was launched in 2018 and involves training Bahraini Police officers we spoke to a director from the london based Bahrain Institute for rights and democracy about its repeated calls to drop the course the British Government got to stop their own go and get training with Security Forces because if it did any think it did the enlisted of improving the situation they just simply have them to cover up abuses the place where they teach the course is the place where the prisoners get tortured so its extremely serious allegations we have extremely strong evidence and can be even better fired within Asylum Seekers in britain. 2017 a u. N. Report called for torture and the ill treatment of prisoners to be more thoroughly investigated because previous complaints made by Rights Groups were not reviewed independently the director of the Bahrain Institute for right and democracy now our day sent this letter to the university of Huddersfield Institute confirmed that it received it and its promise to to respond also requested that the bahraini government and the University Comment on the allegations the Bahrain Institute for rights and democracy says it obtained detailed allegations on the torture of 10 prisoners we opened those testimonies which came to us there from this into the prison behind your prison and somebody called us to give us the details of how those individuals or tortured this is im talking about the fears 10 testimony from the victims that are detailing how they were abused. There is a consistent account on many of them were subjected to physical and psychological torture some of them were subjected to electric shocks some of a lot of them were naked that during their interrogation they were blindfolded some of them raped and sexually assaulted had the they make threats against their families and just last weekend i happened to know that my own family including my brother in law was subjected to torture at the Royal Academy this is what i got from his last chord. Washington post has altered a headline which originally suggested that elite should play a key role in picking the countrys president it comes after the outlet found itself in the spotlight online democracy dies in darkness unless darkness is what the elites need to read in election in which case maybe democracy isnt all that great anyway though it goes through unheard line that silence presents the wealthy are speaking. Democracy dies in darkness whispers jeff bezos to Michael BloombergRupert MurdochJulian Sinclair and donald trump in a dark smoke filled room suckers. And under the current us election system primaries take place at the beginning of an Election Year to select candidates and some states every citizen can vote but in all those only registered voters however its not just the votes that secure the nomination its also down to the number of delegates they guessed depending on the size of the state of the media on this line of believe the article was simply a bold move for attention. Like this 1st of all it was one of the most poorly constructed arguments ever i read it and i thought to myself i dont understand what this is suggesting so i gave it to a couple of by learned colleagues they dont know what it is either we dont know what exactly this is suggesting who are these elites this is a College Professor a ph d. Ph d. Stands for something this far is the Washington Post goes it is a rag it is a hospital mop it is it is it is nothing it it though the glory days of your from watergate its over with not only that the print media in this country newspapers are closing the New York Times is a joke so what you see right now is one last gasp effort to put something in there to get people to talk about it.

Coronavirus continues this week chinas Manufacturing Base and global auto forms are changing course in the nation well take a look at the past for the sector during this situation plus the week has come to an end so its time to take a swing around the globe to analyze how markets performed make global uncertainty and could there be a new frontier for biohacking today we break down the recent report on the practice and what concerns there are around the sector. Lets go and dive right in. China has suspended more punitive tariffs on imports of u. S. Goods in response to its troops in the trade war these goods include industrial components a medical and factory equipment and this comes at a time china is struggling to contain the mounting costs of the viral outbreak that has closed factories stores and slowed exports i while china hinted that the outbreak constituted as a force majeure and therefore will have to delay fulfilling its commitments under phase one reuters now reports quote the u. S. Government still expects china to honor its commitments to will. Agreed late last year many analysts didnt see this happening even before the outbreak started and now it looks increasingly unlikely and it looks like president doesnt even believe that he can strong arm china into these commitments as he has preemptively promised farmers a 3rd bailout package and as Global Markets sink friday on fears of corona outbreak spreading lets take a look at the Positive Side of this with more than 76000 confirmed cases worldwide only 2247. 00 deaths have been reported as of friday the overall death rate from c.
