Itself and the bigger issue at hand here is just how far gone on the top really is the pandemic has shown that we have a corporate coup for a government we have a Banana Republic we have a government that not only doesnt give a hoot about Public Opinion but works actively against it and this is by design republicans are only able to be as horrific as they are because of how ineffective democrats are similarly democrats are only able to be as ineffective as they are because of how horrific republicans are and its just not reflect the people who live here the largest voting bloc in the United States are people who dont vote and people who dont associate with either political party. What is the evening here in moscow 831 the full news hour coming your way on we will continue the live analysis on the poisoning claims lots more coming up hope youll stay with us youre watching r t international. Throughout its history just how just with the selfproclaimed Islamic State terrorist group of recruited up to 30000 foreigners from all over the world to fight for. Citizens left their country to join the terrorists often bringing wives and children with them. On you tube. Hundreds of children and widows were held captive all disappeared. After. Those childrens families wait. Wrong. Yet to shape out just because. Equals betrayal. She says to look for common ground. Lets start back with a recap of our breaking news story the German Government is claiming that russian opposition figure out Alexei Navalny was poisoned with a nerve agent from the north the chalk group in the valley is currently in a medically induced coma and a birth in hospital after being arrested from russia 2 weeks ago the kremlin has said its received no communication from germany on the findings weve got a live reaction coming up in just a moment but with a recap of developments i spoke to our ts peter all of our earlier. The german chancellor Angela Merkel spoke to the press on wednesday afternoon and she said that germany had clear big u. S. Evidence that they know the chocolate nerve agent had being used in what it called an attack against what chancellor merkel called an attack against alexei novelli she said that this was an attempt to silence him and that it was a crime against fundamental values that the chancellor and foreign minister. Of called for answers in this case its still true that in 4 months soon it is over there is that one of the lead in a position figures in russia has been poisoned a specialized the board 3 of the armed forces came to a clear conclusion that alex enough money was poisoned with a substance from the novacek group hes the victim for crime someone tried to shut him up the aisle for doing a book to sleep we demand an investigation into the poisoning of aleksey now while we condemn this boys name and in the near future will hold consultations and how europe can adequately respond to when it will also depend on russias response to the case. Well its in a valley has been here in berlin receiving treatment since the 22nd of all. He took ill on a flight from sign bierria to moscow plane to make an Emergency Landing in the city of all the square the 1st receive medical treatment he was in clear distress when paramedics arrived at the scene. For mr lee was airlifted from. Too late and on the 22nd his supporters funding a special medical flight for him he remains in a little juice coma medic saying theres no acute danger to his life at all whether to stay the shot at a hospital where hes been receiving treatment said that his competition had improved weve heard from the Russian Foreign ministry saying that the claims made by the by their german partners were based in fact in fact we heard from mary as occurred over the spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry who had this to say and put in and as early as august 27th their russian general Prosecutors Office addressed the German Justice ministry with an official request for Legal Assistance the office also expressed its readiness to present to the german side the test results and Research Carried out after mr. German Justice Ministry confirmed it had received a request but so far thats it or we also heard from Demeter Press corps whos the kremlin Spokes Person who said that when alexei nonviolently left russia there was no sign of toxins nor the chalk all other in his system. And lets not forget the take of a former Police Officer on the matter we spoke to peter kirk in london peter always good to see you we just heard in fact the u. K. Health sector. Hes given a statement saying quote we stand ready to offer all the support thats available to help germany to invest. And to take action as necessary why do you think the u. K. Is so keen to get involved in this case. Im not sure that its a matter of the u. K. Being keen to get involved i think its probably more likely that the u. K. Realizes that each has because of its experience dealing with the poisoning of the script while saying so spree it has some of the only Data Available on how. Poisons affect the human body and how to best treatment what works what doesnt work so i suspect its probably more from that angle that theyre keen to get involved rather than just a desire to get involved but just expanding about then as you say there are obvious parallels with the. Poisoning in salzburg in 28 day in a german magazine der spiegel is claiming that suburban sought advice from porton in the case but if theyre for begs the question peter that are things going to infer a belief followed the same pattern nar allegation no proof sanctions and eccentric do you think that this is now i why are we are leading. Unfortunately almost inevitably in this case the poisoning if it was with an obvious shock agent and its interesting that they refer to. A poison of the novacek family as opposed to not a truck itself which suggests its probably been picked up in metabolized. The result of metabolize novacek in the body which could have come from a number of initial poisons. But hes never to be going to be the case that that poisoning happened a relatively short time maybe an hour or 2 an absolute most of before he was taken ill and therefore all the evidence relating to. Anything he and. Children or any of the why the poison might have been administered to him is in deep its siberia and thats totally within the control of the russian government so i think its highly unlikely that this will go very far at all in terms of an investigation or proving who did what where and when. It then leads on to who benefits which has been the question for quite some time peter germany is saying moscow needs to explain itself with the clear implication that the government is somehow involved directly i suppose from a Police Perspective is it right to be pointing fingers to reckon when we still have no idea who the culprit is here. I think with any investigation your always looking to try and work out why this might have happened with any sort of assault especially when the us playing with potentially fatal why has this happened that gives you some idea of the suspects may be. Thats thats a legitimate line of inquiry in any situation as for pointing the finger. I dont think its necessarily a case of germany pointing the finger if they have got that information that they have found these traces of another job site by agents and then all theyre doing is stating that fact and its for the world to make it sound mind up what if anything that might mean bowen walk a lot of poisons there isnt a lot of number to talk about how and its not that available so it really does narrow down the field of potential suspects well listener of ali has plenty of enemies hes targeted a large number of officials and businessmen in his Anti Corruption investigations hes been doing not for almost a decade lets not forget even if there was an attempt on his life surely an investigation and that needs to happen here in russia not germany not the u. K. Yes and no in relation to the actual poisoning of mr nirvana. Microsite all the evidence is going to be in russia and so its going to be the russians if anybody is going to need to investigate that end of things that the germans can try and investigate from their end as best they can but theyre never going to get very far at all in relation to the specific attack on him and if they may well. The the actual motivation side of things motivation without hard evidence of an attack. Going to get you very far at all peter just to get your thoughts on the big picture here that the situation clearly seems to be escalating germany has said it will consult with the e. U. And nato as well to formulate a joint response what you bring in nato nato as a military alliance that surely theres no indication of a military threat here. I think its just a case of bringing all the brains together that can impact on the whole big picture its a threat of sorts if we come to the conclusion that russia is carrying out extrajudicial killings and especially if theyre doing that. With this crippled case if theyre doing that or attempting to do that outside their own jurisdiction in other countries and then thats something thats clearly of diplomatic and governmental concern across the world i mean were way beyond i might very great here this wasnt something that i dont say its my comments a little more evil than anyone elses but i think it stands to reason the whole international. All International Body such as knights or the or whatever are unlikely to have an interest in this because who knows what will happen next and where it might happen and i can tell of many interviews have done by new years pair its always good to get your take on a whole raft of issues. Germany has said it will inform its western allies on the case but theres no indication that they intend to inform russia even though this is as we know and alleged crime that happened in russia do you think berlin is taking the right approach here perhaps some communication you know what help things move along. Maybe but from an investigative point of view you tend not to tell your suspects i want you found out that points to them being the suspect and so that really sort of is what we sort of have here in relation to russia if it was felt that they were an innocent 3rd party then obviously germany would be wise to share what they knew with them in the hope that that would encourage them syrian investigate what is with a managers diction you know but thats not quite the situation here again were into the realms of diplomacy and International Relations just going back if we can to the script our case the whole. The area was cordoned off several other people were fine to be affected in this case what as of 2 weeks now after novelli felt theres been no indication that anybody else was poisoned is there any conclusions prato we can draw from but. Whether or not anybody else is going to be affected is going to depend on the means by which it was applied to mr another. If it was in food or drink or if it was in something that only he and those applying it to the arts and sandaled then there would be no cause to expect anybody else to be affected in the sols precarious we had people affected that dont we have him as a suspect him as a victim or the 2 initial victims and then we hand the victims. A little bit lighter who had found the bottle and been used to consign them which up which may or may not be the means by which it was applied in this case and in any event any such victims would be would be within the jurisdiction of russia and so i dont think the fact that we have heard nothing of any doesnt necessarily mean that there arent any listen thanks so much for coming the program sharing your expertise and all that peter kirk and former u. K. Police officer r. T. International thank you. 846 here in moscow were going to keep the live news rolling plenty more global news coming your way after the break keep it here.

And lets start back in the middle east where dozens of palestinians have clashed with his release soldiers in the west Bank Tel Aviv steps up its drive to build a new Industrial Zone there. C several people were reportedly injured during the confrontation is really forces whomping tasked with protecting heavy equipment including bulldozers theyll be used to clear the way for the new Industrial Zone which will be located near the city of tall carm. Meanwhile this year at the israeli authorities have intensified the demolition of homes in East Jerusalem based say were built illegally its happening despite. Of course on the ongoing economic crisis in the area in many cases the residents. As you can see here theyre taking the sentiment sentiments done as they can be charged large fees for demolition work for other crews to come in and do it is really municipality in jerusalem insists the homes are only torn down if built illegally without a special permits however local human Rights Groups say there is little real chance of obtaining such a permit for palestinians. As you can see i was forced to demolish my own home because of the fines i worked the night to build this house for my family and then these really authorities surprised us by calling of the 2nd day of telling us that the house had to come down they didnt even care about the holiday or the coronavirus situation the actions of the Israeli Government tried to make us leave this land but no matter what we wont go. We saw what happened with and weve seen this happen time and time again the municipality destroyed my shop income i needed to feed my family the municipality wont allow us to build houses which forces the Palestinian People to do it without a permit. To a story thats affecting a lot of people got a lot of people talking well facebook has announced a radical change to its terms of Service Users you may be one started receiving notifications saying the social media giant will start removing or blocking any content that could expose the company to legal action. We can also remove or restrict access to content services or information if we determine that doing so is reasonably necessary to avoid or mitigate adverse legal regulatory impacts to facebook disturbing near addition to facebook terms of service that could be used to justify online censorship but what the governments using restrictive National Laws to order social media platforms to censor information critical of the government or more narky in violation of online freedom facebooks terms of Service Update translated to plain english will remove content not because it is incorrect misleading illegal or spreads dangerous misinformation but because removing it might help prevent us from getting caught allowing it did you see the new facebook terms of said this smells like election interference and censorship to me. Well as you just saw there theres already been a Strong Negative reaction to the new rules which take effect on the 1st of october this all comes this spites facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg repeated pledge not to censor political content. You know weve tried to distinguish ourselves out as. Probably being one of the Tech Companies that is the most protective of giving people a voice and Free Expression overall content is newsworthy we also wont take it down even if it would otherwise conflict with some of our standards what i believe is that in a democracy its really important that people can see for themselves what politicians are saying that they can make their own judgments i dont think its right for a private company to censor politicians or the news in a democracy that doesnt fit in with facebook practices in general which have been censoring and biased and completely draconian in terms of how they treat content and its very prejudicial its well they have been really for free speech and they have now with Facebook News the intent to basically not only control knows but own it it only say that if somebody is threatening to sue them for a search for such and such a content so basically it is a car launch life to remove any content whatsoever without it. The users are now you know theyre a captive audience its very hard to move from one social network to another you have a whole network of friends and followers that you have that you are counting on communicating to him out they know that their virtual mom leave so they can basically theyre suggesting they can do whatever they want.
