Its the weekly hair on our teams national all round up of the top stories from the last 7 days on the latest up to date news while. U. S. Secretary of state mike compare has accused iran of launching a quote unprecedented assault on the wild Energy Supply saying that iran is behind attacks on saudi arabias Oil Production terror on denies any involvement in the attack calling the u. S. Accusations a la lets take a quick listen to what exactly the u. S. We call on all nations to publicly and unequivocally condemn irans attacks the United States will work with our partners and allies to ensure that Energy Markets remain well supplied and iran is held accountable for its aggression. Having failed at max pressure secretary of state compost turning to max to seat the u. S. In its clients are stuck in yemen because im illusion that weapon superiority will lead to military victory blaming iran wont end disaster except april 15th proposal to end the war and begin talks may or refining in saudi arabia has now been hard as a result of 2 major state run facilities as experts expected oil prices have jumped significantly more than 13 percent following the incident u. S. President trump has authorized the release of oil from the Nations Strategic Petroleum reserve highlighting the importance of keeping markets well supplied the 2 saudi facilities damaged by fire were attacked on saturday eyewitnesses showed a video on social media of a huge blaze were gunshots can apparently be heard in the background the u. S. Claims it was a result of drone strikes with one of the big north from iraq but backed out says there is no possibility its territory was used. Who see rebels claimed responsibility for deploying to and to attack that saudi Oil Processing facility and also a Major Oil Field they say the strikes were in response to the saudi led war in yemen backed by the u. S. Washington has also previously charged iran with lending support to the theists how much of a professor of Political Science the university of tehran believes these latest accusations from the u. S. Are most likely baseless. Our michael has a very long history of making accusations without providing any actual evidence who deserve already claimed responsibility for these attacks and although the scale of these attacks are on precedented we have to remember that the who tees have launched drone attacks deep inside saudi arabia for months now so i think there is no surprise there and the u. S. Has accused iran of sending weaponry to the hutus but we also have to remember that yemen has been under a very severe military blockade by the saudis with the help actually of the americans for over 4 years now making it very difficult to even send food let alone weaponry so i think hes just trying to come up with excuses to charge iran of crimes that iran has actually not committed so the vehement anti iran rhetoric from the u. S. Continues even after one of terrans most outspoken critics National Security advisor john bolton was fired by President Trump on tuesday that was one of the big headlines of the week mr trump claimed he disagreed with bolton on several key Foreign Policy issues theres no word yet on who will be replacing him john bolton is renowned for his aggressive hawkish approach to Foreign Policy he supported the u. S. Intervention in syria and was staunchly against easing pressure on north korea he also adopted a tough stance on iran and backed scrapping the nuclear deal done a whole concert has been taking a closer look at his record. Scandals resignations and dismissals are part and parcel of trumps presidency a few policy disagreements a swift tweet from the president s and another Administration Official bites the dust it was clear from the outset that trump and his National Security advisor would have their disagreements im the one that tempers him but thats ok i have different sides i mean i have john bolton and have other people that are a little more dovish than him and ultimately i make that decision we can speculate on which exact squabble lead to boltons exit the failed talks on afghanistan the question of rush hour or perhaps a run but it seems the animosity lasted until his final day in office i offered to resign last night and President Trump said lets talk about it tomorrow i informed john bolton last night that his services are no longer needed at the white house i disagreed strongly with many of his suggestions as did others in the administration views himself as a skilled dealmaker who talked tough were needed for bolton but wasnt enough he needed to walk the walk and actively consistently show strength on all fronts the middle east russia north korea latin america you name it he held out on compromising stance on sanctions military action and regime change. Bolton was one of the key advocates of toppling the madeira government using any means necessary all options on the table ready to go this troika of tyranny this triangle of chairs stretching from havana to caracas to managua is the cause of immense human suffering this is a time for action. Trump showed he was willing to meet to negotiate with even the greatest perceived u. S. Adversities even if it meant just for symbolic photo op the right intentions seems to be their bet it will make it clear that they wont i dont like sanctions because. This country i think they want to make peace i think its time for bolton though this was unacceptable so it could be a long and unproductive meeting or it could be a short non productive meeting we have very much in mind the libyan model from 20032004 while bolton boiled that north korea had violated u. N. Sanctions off for missile test and may trump downplayed the incident saying he wasnt spooked north korea fired off some small weapons which disturbed some of my people and others but not me. Taking on iran was perhaps boltons priority number one within a month of his appointment in april 28th seen the u. S. Have pulled out of the Iran Nuclear Deal and advocate of preemptive strikes he pushed for military action against iran after a u. S. Drone was brought down and as ever his thinly veiled threats centered around regime change we hope that these new measures directed at the arena and dictatorship will compel the government to reevaluate its pursuit of terror at the expense of its people well i think he is on the verge of making a mistake i think his advisors are pushing him in the wrong direction ironically just as bolton prepared to depart speculations been rife on possible talks between trump and the rain in president rouhani it would have thought that possible after so much hostile rhetoric perhaps the final straw was trumps plans of wind down the longest war in u. S. History including hosting talks with taliban leaders at camp david its speculated that bolton this was in comprehensible it seems that with or without boltons presence u. S. Foreign policy may have more surprises in store during trumps 1st. Im not latter aspect of donnes piece is what were focusing on later in the program even though the u. S. Shut down the hard brokered peace talks the Afghan Taliban still wants donald trump to get back to the table as r. T. Found out in an exclusive interview with that it goes into its ahead this half hour. Senior u. S. Journalists are once again fighting over russia with one t. V. Network now suing the host of another for describing them as paid russian propaganda arties has the story. Here comes a familiar voice which becomes even more familiar if we hear words like russia or russian the most obsequiously approach trump right wing news outlet in america really it literally is page correction propaganda for those who still didnt recognize that that was really literally Rachel Maddow speaking about the one American News network on her and this n. B. C. Show ill get to the point of reminding you how she keeps seeing russia everywhere in a moment but dont you think there must be someone out there who wont just swallow what the m s n b c star anchor says without hitting back with a decent jab well oh a ed is filing a defamation lawsuit they want 10000000 bucks one america is wholly operated and financed by the herring family in san diego they are as american as apple pie they are not paid by russia and have nothing to do with the russian government this is a false and malicious libel and theyre going to answer for it in a court of law to tell you about the reason for when Rachel Maddow said really literally which is supposed to mean definitely no doubt shares staff with the kremlin thats another thing she said its just that a one america journalist bit freelance work for a russian based News Agency Sputnik she got him busted so bad but as ive said earlier the number of times Rachel Maddow turned her show into a grand russian paranoia episode is just difficult to carry out. 1 or about to find out if the new president of our country is going to do what russia wants. F. B. I. Is under attack from the president from the president s republican supporters and congress and the president conservative media supporters and also from the ongoing russian influence operation that is still. What happened if russia killed the power in fargo today and what would happen to all of the natural gas lines that that surface and falls just on the coal to stay in recent memory and it wasnt in our power whether or not to turn them back on no wonder that when some folks decided to put the m s n b c hosts russia gate obsession into a mathematical perspective they found she spent more time talking about russia than all other topics combined over a certain period. Now you know what it takes to become the most watched hosts in all of cable news she got to that milestone last year but when step by step it gets revealed a lot of what you were saying was just a flow of blah blah you make up to when views the consequences do start haunting you 1st the ratings gradually went down and then the actual conclusions of the pro blood to whet their this is what the viewers saw when Rachel Maddow 1st realized the probe wasnt going to russia gaiters way and so we know the logistics of how we got the notification that it did and obviously right now we have mostly just a ton of questions as to what millers report says how complete it is who gets to see it who gets to decide who gets to see it and when. Now here comes the lawsuit the what i mentioned nothings decided yet but probably even more people will think twice next on the here really literally in that familiar voice. To a mystery that has puzzled minds for the past 60 yaz in 1959 a group of soviet hikers in the euro mountains disappear 9 bodies recovered it various theories around the deaths and a special project you want to. See ruptly we can chronicle the faithful and. Because if. You or your. Interactive project allows you to follow the hike has a 10 day trek you could explore what the group did each day through photos and maps and also what they wrote you also discover more about the unexplained injuries on the bodies and the various theories as to what exactly happened added to that you can put yourself into the shoes of one of the team members as they walk along the route and then vote on your suspected version of what happened off to weighing up the evidence youre presented with. In an exclusive interview with auti the taliban has donald trump to return to the negotiating table over the war in afghanistan they were in moscow for talks with russian officials this week off the us president shut down a year long Peace Process with the Minutes Group despite hopes up the negotiation might add always to decades of conflict the taliban commander was supposed to go to the United States before signing an agreement that deal was to include washington withdrawing troops in exchange for a commitment from the medicines not to shelter terrorists donald trump justified during the negotiations by citing an islamist attack in the Afghan Capital that resulted in the death of an american soldier that suicide car bombing killed 10 people in total and injured thousands more it was one of 3 assaults claimed by the taliban in the 2 week period in addition to attacks which have taken place over the 12 months that the peace talks are going on t. Also the group how they expect trying to negotiate with them while theyre killing his troops. The next day when mr. Mr bucket is a problem is that he says he. Doesnt want to go so its to give those of us what we cannot give one of the other what is most. American soldiers there you know what its not only the soldiers. That are there was what i was but still we. Propose. To be set up with something but unfortunately i need which release some sort of proof i dont even. It was considered by the american side a sense if the american side is not really a negotiation and did not want peace on the day it will. Be compared to defend our Civil Liberties to do this 500 years. I do know that there. Is a behind that we can still work on but we are still committed to the League Mission suisse here that i would stand and i will probably see from this Study Committee why this time is that theres no solution for one conflict except it was a sense except the peace on the table so we were revitalized the whole day to mr duncan. Smith in here come back to where we were and we just sat there with after the fact to give the american. American democratic politicians are increasingly speaking out on the issue of fracking with money calling for the process to be completely banned fracking involves trading deep into the ground to a couple or oil and natural gas critics claim its dangerous about the environment and top u. S. Democrats shadows fears to scale up more pain reports. The usa is now the worlds top Oil Exporting Country check out these words from the International Energy agency booming shale production has allowed the u. S. To close in on and briefly overtake saudi arabia as the worlds top oil exporter President Trump says that this is a huge achievement hes ready to celebrate success becoming more and more energy dominant i dont want to give you free we want to be an engine dominant in terms of the world but not everyone shares Donald Trumps Energy Market enthusiasm in fact most of the people who want to run against him in the 2020 alexion want to outlaw the practice of hydraulic fracking thats the reason the usa has so much oil and gas any proposal to avert the Climate Crisis must include a full fracking ban on public and private lands on my 1st day as president i will sign an executive order that puts a total maria tarm on own you fossil fuel leases for drilling off shore and on public lands and i will ban fracking everywhere its not just the left progressives youve got the centrist kemal the harris theres no question im in favor of banning fracking so at this point roughly 59 percent of americas oil is extracted from the shale so if you outlawed the practice of hydraulic fracking you would knock down the oil sector of the u. S. Economy pretty hard the same for natural gas now check out this headline. Kremlin kemal or harris and other democrats are embracing Vladimir Putins preferred u. S. Energy policy the new Conspiracy Theory even went viral on twitter many in fracking and use of natural gas would do more damage to america and make lead to more putin happier than anything donald trump has ever said or done so good job democrats your being pro russia pro putin and program wind by wanting to ban natural gas of course the senator isnt the only 2020 democrat calling for this from russia with love ban on fracking the most reliable of k. G. B. Useful idiots Bernie Sanders is even clearer that this notion that opposition to hydraulic fracking is all a big plot from moscow is nothing new in fact weve even heard it from the halls of the u. S. Congress we have seen evidence of campaigns targeting culture and energy as to 2. Industries of interest to foreign powers on energy weve seen anti fracking narratives so it seems like nowadays the only way to really play it safe in american politics is to find out what the why were putting once and do the exact opposite so lets hope that the russian president doesnt talk about say fixing up americas crumbling roads and bridges or addressing the Opioid Epidemic mop and r.

Phoenix documents the early years of the villain from the batman franchise and shows him as a loner who descends into madness its not yet on public release but a screening at the venice film festivals people arguing online with many saying it encourages us to sympathize with problematic themes i dont want to have sympathy for a man best known for his robbery murder and arguably rape shoved down my throat for 2 hours it was not that long ago when a socially isolated described chilled white man who felt wronged by society quite literally dressed up as a joker and shot up a Movie Theater in colorado joke of a film where youre supposed to sympathize with a mediocre white man radicalising to do range violence will no doubt be appealing to the wrong audience for the worst reasons millions of children will see the upcoming film joker to laugh at a clown millions of children will be taught that crime violence and mayhem at the stuff of jokes one will howl with take responsibility for promoting a culture of crime we spoke to a filmmaker who believes that censorship should be a last resort. Problem with criticizing a film before it comes out for what its supposed to say is that were starting to. A lot of people like to do in this country self censor art and creative expressions of art and i have a big issue with pure and simply because its really difficult to comment on something that youve not seen and if youre already saying that something is going to be the way you think is going to be and you dont want to see it then we have a problem we have a problem that we have in this country with the polarization at a political level at a cultural level we dont want to see what we think is going to be different from what we think about what we support i dont think that video games or movies will encourage people to commit acts of violence i think the issue is at the source of education of many things that are going on in this country when it comes to too much shootings and role violence i think intertainment if something is an expression of something that is happening in this society that we need to deal with and its a reminder as there is a lot of issues that are not dealt with and i feel that a lot of people like to put those issues under the carpet instead of dealing with them head on.
