Hippocratic the have double standards if this happens in the u. S. Mainland would they accept terrorists to be available terrorist organizations.

Well one concern per into describes herself as a qualified psychologist has written an open letter calling the program quote on attack on the amounts of patients when she says the channel is portraying a repressive relationship in a positive light we got reaction from two guests with opposing views on the program in multan western European Society and certainly in germany there are a lot of stories migrants have lots of stories there are lots of different realities nowadays were in a climate changing realities. You know if we have stories about young Syrian People whether theyre young adults whether the mine is who are mixing with into mingling with living lives alongside germans or other europeans i think we should be taught to tell these stories as long as those stories are not. Seeding discontent hate breeding or trying to be divisive i dont think its the role of the government or a Government Agency to to work the children against continuing the values and cultures of their parents i dont have a problem with a mosque or a private organization pushing this sort of thing but you know what kind of taxpayer winds to have his values denigrated and subverted with his own children by the people hes paying and that is the primary you see this. These in life and death situation are called i said resettling in resettling into the west now you dont get to stop the wild and just say i want to get off you when you see like a real single idea you said at the top of the hour i believe it was a lie right that guy pretended to be sixteen he wasnt sixteen so the kids were lied to from the very start so you have seven and eight year olds who are watching this romantic thing im not even sure that was appropriate ok and so lets start there this is not. Really about the ideas of those people its not really about freedom of expression or journalism this is actually about saying look at these we had muslims and brown people with funny views on pushing you know it isnt you know sessions on vulnerable young citizens i dont even know if this is a real romance this contrived romance was being deliberately sold to these kids as a way of undermining our setting the table for the undermining of maybe what i believe are the intentions of the parents parents have a right to continue their family legacies and their culture and this undermines it on the taxpayer dime Police Officers in new york are taking legal action against the citys leaders for releasing bodycount video to the public we get into the details after this.

Eighteen minutes into the program youre very welcome back to new yorks Largest Police union is suing its own commissioner on the citys administration over the release of body count videos this was this has serious implications not only for the safety in g. Process rights of Police Officers but for the privacy and rights of members of the public as well the union claims the release of video from officers body cameras is a breach of citizens previously now being that the administration uses quote arbitrary and inconsistent parameters and is guided by Political Considerations one case in point is an incident last september when a man was shot after pointing a toy gun at police video was released despite fears it could jeopardize an Ongoing Investigation a former officer who blew the whistle on Police Activities believes the Current System allows his videos to be used for political gain. I dont think its an all of a sudden decision if you actually read the lawsuit in the very first paragraph it states clearly what it wants and all its asking for in the gist of the complaint is for these body camera videos not to be used selectively for political gain that thats thats all that its asking for its asking for a better system for these to be disseminated out into the public and as of right now the two people that the complaint is listing against for seemingly abusing the authority is for the blasio and the Police Commissioner itself so the complaint says that it wants just not selective you videos being removed. Last year three body count videos were released by the new York Police Department two of them show officers shooting and killing suspects a local news channel paid thirty six thousand dollars to show additional footage the union says the videos are selected to make a point outing not they could be from years ago but are being used to highlight Current Issues a warning you may find the upcoming images distressing. Are. Three point zero. Zero zero zero zero to. Find out what. Youre seeing Police Officers being pawns in political games or get political gain. And they need to be protected theyre in the middle between the laws the law makers the people theyre supposed to patrol and police the laws over and then their body camera usage their squad car video footage is all being used either for them or against them as a as a pawn moving game and its just not fair. For the fall and so are highly disparaging remarks donald trump reportedly made about haiti el salvador and african countries is continuing to grow during around to in the oval office the president allegedly branded them in crude or terms second rate countries on the some have pointed out to make matters worse the timing was particularly unfortunate transformer election rival Hillary Clinton drew attention to the fact that the comments came on the eight Year Anniversary of a devastating earthquake in haiti which killed more than two hundred thousand people and one c. N. N. Anchor he even became quite emotional in his response to trumps remarks patients slap your hand hard when they shake it they look you in the eye they dont blink they stand tall and they have dignity its a dignity many in this white house could learn from its a dignity the president with all his money and all his power could learn from as well but even before being hit by the earthquake which also severely damaged the countrys infrastructure and left it on able to provide many basic services haiti had been blighted by hundreds of years of hardship after gaining independence from france at the beginning of the two hundred said took the u. S. Almost sixty years to acknowledge its independence and during that time it imposed a trade embargo in haiti which was already struggling with enormous debts the monday by fronts in the Twentieth Century haiti was also occupied by u. S. Marines for almost two decades so was to protect washingtons economic interests washington also gave hundreds of millions in aid to the brutal regime of duvalier intervene weiss militarily. African Affairs AnalystLawrence Freeman is live in the program to talk more about for like a very welcome to the program how do you interpret these alleged remarks especially given the often exploitative interventionist rule that the u. S. Has played in many of these countries to advance its own interests well my area especially africa and not of course President Trumps remarks if they were made by air are quite unfortunate but the more important and larger question is what is the u. S. Policy for africa and unfortunately what we see from this administration after a year is similar to see you in the previous administrations which is the United States and the west in general does not have a policy to advance the interests of African People and that is a very serious question well that is what im getting to know because why do you think haiti seems to be getting the most attention by some distance in the u. S. Media is it indicative of a general neglect of africa in the western media. Well look at it this way. Subsaharan africa is in very difficult shape because of hundreds of years of slavery and colonialism and then after independence no infrastructure was built by the western countries and this is only because of the change in the last ten years but china so how the lack of tricity lack of water lack of roads its appalling and this has not been great except by a few of us over many years now the Obama Administration the Clinton Administration the Bush Administration none of the others just this question in the media did not see it important to take up at that time so i think that some real hypocrisy going on here as with the question is how whats the reaction could u. S. Relations with african nations not be affected and if so to what extent could it encourage them to to further turn away from the u. S. And look towards perhaps places like china for more investment for more interest there. Well right now the african countries are already turning to china chinas new silk will is now in transforming the world but its the first time that infrastructure has been built in a significant size in africa since declaw your period we have railroads being built for the first time in over one hundred years with chinas assistance so the african countries have already celt the sat at the United States and the west has turned away from them for several decades the question is can we get the United States to join with china join with the so growth build the Energy Plants that need to be built build a rare roof be built this is whats on the table now and unfortunately trumps added to it in his program that hes put forward for africa aside from his comments is hes not going to do that hes focused on security questions and character is him and that wont work without it going on with developing can connect with security terrorist proper assertive thanks so much for coming on the program and sharing your thoughts on on what looks to be a developing issue african Affairs Analyst lawrence k.

K. A lot of this has to also do with the chinese traveling the number one destination for the chinese is the u. K. And you know anywhere that the chinese money is going is going and its probably not coming here as much were not as welcoming right in the u. S. It seems with the new president its not that when we would as welcoming but it has affected actually in terms of globally you look at what mario just made that big mistake in china because of course on their website they by accident i suppose posted a separate site for taiwan for tibet from macau and hong kong that is entries and china doesnt like that chinese are now boycotting marial which is american and agro that has ramifications well jump around here a little bit so you mention. What about these programs like myriad starwood joining together how is that working or do we see more consolidation like that in the Hotel Industry yes we are going to see it in the middle market the middle market is growing exponentially mainly because of the experience will demond versus product demand you find that millennial is and also actually the graying of america millennialism graying of america both want greater experiences and thats whats causing a lot of this growth whats the number one experience trouble thats whats causing.
